At 1 am on January 4th, 212, Sina Weibo plus V user "Weibo Tianxia" posted that the relevant state departments had investigated the "free lunch" of non-governmental public welfare organizations because it was suspected of "money laundering", and the scope of the investigation included the core personnel of the "free lunch", staff of Beijing institutions, accounts and so on.

This Weibo was originally forwarded with the help of three Weibo: Wang Ganlin, Weibo Tianxia and Influence Weekly. Among them, Wang Ganlin is the editor-in-chief of Weibo Tianxia and the editor-in-chief of Influence Weekly. This Weibo has been forwarded thousands of times, causing heated discussion among netizens. On January 4th, Weibo, the official of Free Lunch, Xiao Longjun, deputy secretary-general of China Social Welfare Foundation, director of Free Lunch Fund Management Committee, and Deng Fei, the founder of Free Lunch, all denied rumors in their certification of Weibo.

Xiao Longjun said that the foundation has not received any interview or investigation notice from any discipline inspection and supervision department about the staff of the "free lunch" fund. As the foundation in charge of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, China Social Welfare Foundation will report this matter to the Discipline Inspection Team and Supervision Bureau of CPC Central Commission for Discipline Inspection in the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

In response to this matter, Deng Fei said: "The technical content of rumors is too low." On January 4th, the Weibo was deleted, and the author publicly apologized. The content of the apology is: "The release of' free lunch' is suspected of money laundering, and it has been deleted because there is no definite evidence. I apologize for the inconvenience caused to bloggers and relevant departments." Weibo, who publicly apologized, was forwarded by Sina Weibo's rumor team. Wang Ganlin, editor-in-chief of Weibo Tianxia, said that there was no clear evidence for the news, but it was just a rumor that he heard at dinner with friends the night before. He has deleted Weibo.

But Wang Ganlin insists that he has some evidence about the problem of "free lunch". At that time, Weibo was sent to attract more people's attention, so as to collect more evidence about the problems of "free lunch". Weibo Tianxia's account was cancelled due to false news. Although Weibo Tianxia has deleted the relevant Weibo content and publicly apologized on the Internet, Deng Fei, the founder of Free Lunch, said that the charity team and donors of Free Lunch did not accept such an apology, and they have taken screenshots of the deleted Weibo content and will keep it as evidence.

Xiao Longjun said that at present, the "free lunch" team is doing evidence preservation, and is prepared to defend the rights and interests by legal means. "This is not only to protect the legitimate rights and interests of non-profit organizations, but also to protect the legitimate rights and interests of donors and recipients. If public welfare projects are slandered, the rights and interests of recipients will be more affected." Xiao Longjun said.

Knowing that "Free Lunch" has collected relevant evidence to defend rights through legal channels, Wang Ganlin said that he will accompany him to the end.
