他還發了一篇措辭強烈的(中文)信說，4月15日，他決定休10天短假，驅車前往偏遠的西部省份新疆。
He said he needed the holiday "so that I could completely relax and clearly think about how to solve several large problems in the current stage of my company’s management".

Mr Yang acknowledged he failed to tell anyone about his travel plans, but added that he notified two employees telling them to manage themselves for the next few days.
楊先生承認，他沒有告訴別人他的旅行計劃，但他補充說，他通知了兩名雇員，讓他們在未來數天自行管理。

他說，他正準備回家，上周日得知公司的指控后，他說他感到“震驚和憤怒”。
"The company which I painstakingly managed has in the last few days become unrecognisable, slandering me as ’taking 1 billion and fleeing’! All the investments have accounts that can be checked, what is this based on?!" he wrote.
“我精心管理的公司在過去的幾天里變得面目全非，誹謗我‘攜十億元落跑’!所有的投資都有賬戶可以查詢，憑什么這么說?” 他寫道。
