Chapter 1925: Reporting to the Police (4000 words)

~14 min read 2,796 words

Liao Ting walked faster and faster, and finally pulled Kong Yu and whispered, "Run!"

She knew Han Zhipei too well; that guy's psychology had already been distorted and perverted.

Before, he could still maintain his demeanor and humility on the surface, but now that they had torn their faces.

In a fit of shame and anger, he could do anything.

The two ran for a distance, and Liao Ting looked back and didn't see Han Zhipei chasing after them, so she let out a breath.

Kong Yu was panting heavily, and it took a while for her to recover.

"President Liao, you and that person..."

Kong Yu's words were only half said, and she didn't continue.

After all, this was President Liao's private matter, and some words were not something she could say.

Liao Ting just smiled slightly. "Just now you pulled me, which made me dodge Han Zhipei's slap, and you stood in front of me. Thank you."

Kong Yu straightened her chest and said with great loyalty, "You are my leader, my sister, and even more my master. You taught me so much, so no matter who it is, I won't let anyone bully you."

Liao Ting smiled again. Although this girl had once fallen into self-abandonment and ruined her own body to take revenge on her boyfriend.

But after a period of contact, she discovered that this girl also had many advantages.

Smart, eager to learn, diligent, and very sensible, and now she discovered that she was also very loyal.

The two didn't speak again along the way. When they arrived at the guesthouse, they returned to the room and took a bath.

When they came out and were on their way to the restaurant to eat, they ran into Zhang Xuan and the senior management of Jian Dong International.

The person leading the team this time was that international student named Wang Ting who had followed Alice into Jian Dong International when she shorted the British pound.

Last year, Wang Ting had already graduated and successfully entered Jian Dong International to work; she was now the General Manager of the Investment Department.

"Chairman Zhang, President Wang!"

Seeing Zhang Xuan and Wang Ting, Liao Ting greeted them enthusiastically.

They belonged to three different companies, but they were all exploited by the same boss.

So these three women who shared the same fate became friends as soon as they met.

In their spare time, Liao Ting, this local snake, would take them shopping and eating delicious food, and their feelings warmed up rapidly.

"President Liao!" Zhang Xuan asked with concern. "How did your negotiations go?"

"Chairman Zhou instructed that the preferential policies for Shanghai are almost there, so don't have too many requirements. Therefore, the negotiations were very smooth, and we can sign the contract tomorrow."

Saying this, Liao Ting couldn't help but complain, "I haven't seen such a capitalist who doesn't seek benefits for himself and pushes money out."

Zhang Xuan giggled. "He also told me that when buying No. 12 and No. 4 on the Bund, don't haggle over the money. Shanghai doesn't have money either, and the city needs to develop. As an enterprise, we should support it more."

Wang Ting didn't know about this. Was this the boss's pattern?

To be honest, even if she stood in the boss's position, she absolutely couldn't do this.

She felt a bit regretful in her heart because she hadn't seen the legendary boss until now.

Liao Ting asked, "How did your negotiations go?"

"With both sides having strong willingness, the only possible disagreement is money." Zhang Xuan smiled, then continued, "But when there is no disagreement on money, the negotiations naturally have no resistance. You are signing the contract tomorrow, and we will also be very soon."

When Liao Ting arrived in Shanghai and entered the first negotiation, Shanghai began the process of land allocation, which was the circle Zhou Andong had drawn at the beginning.

After all, this investment negotiation could be said to be just going through the motions. Even if there were disagreements, it wouldn't affect the determination of both sides to cooperate.

Therefore, all procedures would be handled at the fastest speed, taking about half a month. And on Dean An's side, the design had already begun.

The design of the urban complex was easy to talk about, but Zhou Andong wanted to build the tallest building in Asia, and later changed it to the tallest building in the world. From design to environmental assessment to approval and finally construction, one year would be fast.

Especially since the geology by the Huangpu River was soft, this required a lot of exploration work and argumentation. This was definitely not something that Old An and this big family of the Fine Arts Academy could do alone; they definitely had to cooperate with the Academy of Engineering and other relevant design institutions.

The exterior design Zhou Andong gave was the Burj Khalifa, 828 meters, 162 floors in total. This world's tallest building, which only started construction in 2004, had a total cost of 1.5 billion US dollars.

Placed in China in 1994, ten years ago, 1 billion US dollars was about enough. Even if the machinery and equipment for building such super-high-rise buildings all needed to be imported, 1.2 billion US dollars was more than enough, similar to the construction cost of the Global Center by the little devils.

The reason Zhou Andong didn't choose foreign design institutions and construction institutions was because China didn't have the experience of building super-high-rise buildings. He did this to give those domestic institutions a chance.

Don't think that because they hadn't built one and didn't have experience, they should deny their own ability. The nickname "Infrastructure Madman" didn't come overnight, but was explored bit by bit, walking to the top of the world step by step.

What must be mentioned is that at the beginning, what Zhou Andong wanted to plagiarize were the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur. This most iconic building in the world had a total height of 451.9 meters, but construction started in 1992.

And the Petronas Towers' world's tallest title only lasted for six years from its completion in 1998, and was ended in 2004, so Zhou Andong changed it to the Burj Khalifa. Of course, in his words, this was the China Tower.

The three women chatted and came to the restaurant. Dong Qiyong of Yuxi Real Estate, as well as the finance and legal teams, were already eating.

"You got up so early."

"President Liao!" Dong Qiyong swallowed the food in his mouth and said with a smile, "Negotiations are over, and I feel relaxed all over. I slept early last night, so I naturally got up early."

"You guys eat." Liao Ting pointed to the dining area. "I'm also going to get something to eat."

Liao Ting, Zhang Xuan, and Wang Ting went to get food together. The municipal government guesthouse breakfast was specially prepared for them and was very rich.

The three women chose a large tray of food they liked and found an empty seat to sit down.

Liao Ting drank some porridge and asked, "President Zhang, No. 12 on the Bund is occupied by the Shanghai government. Even if the contract is signed, it will take a year or so to move out, right? To set up a branch here, don't you have to find a temporary office?"

"No need." Zhang Xuan said while eating, "Besides No. 12, we are also talking about No. 4, the Union Building, which is temporarily rented by the Architectural Design Institute.

By May or June next year, the new municipal government building will be completed and put into use. There is still a year before the municipal government can move out of No. 12, but No. 4 is rented by the Architectural Design Institute.

Now the municipal government has found an office for them. As long as the purchase contract is signed, the Architectural Design Institute will move out within two months. At that time, after simple tidying up, our bank and Jian Dong International's Angel Investment will temporarily work in No. 4."

Liao Ting nodded and looked at Wang Ting. "President Wang, after Angel Investment is established, will you stay in the country or return to the UK?"

"I will stay in the country and be responsible for Angel Investment." Wang Ting smiled and looked at Liao Ting. "You will definitely stay in Shanghai to be responsible for the new project, right? At that time, you must take me to walk around Shanghai properly."

Although Wang Ting could be considered a veteran of Jian Dong International, after all, she had just graduated, and compared with the management team hired by Jian Dong International with high salaries now, her qualifications were too shallow.

Therefore, Alice let her return to the country to be responsible for Angel Investment. As long as she made some achievements, and then tempered her qualifications for a few years, it would be logical to be transferred back to the headquarters to take on more important positions.

Of course, this also required Wang Ting to have ability. If she couldn't make achievements in the country and remained mediocre, it was estimated that her current position wouldn't be kept.

Hearing Wang Ting's words, Liao Ting laughed. "If you want me to accompany you to play in Shanghai for a few days, it can only be during this period."

"Hmm?" Not only Wang Ting, but even Zhang Xuan was surprised. "Listening to what you mean, you won't stay in Shanghai?"

"Yes!" Liao Ting wiped the corners of her mouth with a napkin. "The boss might send me to Ali."

"Go to Ali?" Zhang Xuan frowned. "What are you going to Ali for?"

All projects in Ali were invested by Yugong Group, so Zhang Xuan and Wang Ting didn't know.

"This year, Ali had a major snow disaster. You should know about it, right?"

Liao Ting looked at the two, and without waiting for them to answer, she continued.

"The boss personally escorted disaster relief supplies to the Ali disaster area. After returning, he finalized several investment projects there, and there were also some charity projects. The boss's meaning is to establish an Ali regional subsidiary and have me be responsible."

"Ali, that is a plateau area, and the climate is very harsh. How can he let you, a woman, go to work there?"

Zhang Xuan frowned straight when she heard this, and felt very indignant for Liao Ting.

"Actually, the boss just mentioned it, and I was the one willing to go." Liao Ting laughed. "When chatting, the boss talked about going to Ali for disaster relief. The people there are really too bitter. I just want to be able to do something for them."

Zhang Xuan looked at Liao Ting, then sighed. "I really don't know what to say about you. It's not that you shouldn't do something for Ali, but I feel that the group has so many capable men, why let a woman go there?"

"That day, the boss told me a story." Liao Ting put down the chopsticks in her hand. "It was a story about a volunteer teacher. That girl went to Ali to volunteer after graduation.

The classroom leaked wind and rain, and the blackboard was just ink brushed on a few wooden boards. She couldn't get her salary for months, and even for meals, she was helped by the herdsmen.

In winter, because there was no sunlight, the classroom was colder than outside, so many times they had classes outdoors. But even in such an environment, that girl persisted for ten years and is still persisting to this day."

Zhang Xuan fell silent, and it was only after a while that she said, "You go. When I have time, I will definitely go to Ali to see you."

"I will also go to take a look." Wang Ting said a sentence, then continued to eat.

Next, they didn't speak again. After finishing breakfast, because the time was still early.

Zhang Xuan and Wang Ting returned to their rooms, and Liao Ting came to the door of Dong Qiyong's room and raised her hand to knock.

"President Liao is here!"

Kong Yu's voice came from inside, and the sound of footsteps got closer and closer. Immediately after, the door opened, and it was Kong Yu.

"President Liao, everyone is waiting for you."

Liao Ting entered the room, and everyone from Yuxi Real Estate was there. Every morning, they would have a short meeting.

"Today's negotiations are just to check for omissions and fill in the gaps, and there won't be any major problems, so there's no need to hold a morning meeting."

Dong Qiyong said with a smile, "Although the negotiations for the first two days were tense, this is also the most relaxed investment negotiation I have ever participated in."

A middle-aged man wearing glasses and a suit said, "The investment scale in Shanghai is even larger than in Yangcheng, but the negotiations in Yangcheng took half a year to settle, while we only took a few days. This speed should be unprecedented."

This middle-aged man was named Yang Zhizhao, the Deputy General Manager of the Legal Department of Yuxi Real Estate, and a senior lawyer.

Guan Ning, the Deputy General Manager of the Finance Department, followed and laughed. "This can only be said that the courage of Shanghai's leaders is much greater than Yangcheng's."

"I won't go to today's negotiations. You guys apologize to the leaders on my behalf." Liao Ting looked at the time. "I have some private matters to handle."

"Good!"

Dong Qiyong agreed. After these few days of negotiations, Liao Ting's ability made him completely convinced.

When he was in Yangcheng, when he knew that Liao Ting, this Vice President, hadn't been in contact with the real estate industry, he thought that this negotiation in Shanghai would definitely be led by him.

But when she truly sat at the negotiation table, Liao Ting was like a different person, not at all like someone who hadn't been in contact with the real estate industry.

"Kong Yu!" Liao Ting waved her hand. "Come with me."

Kong Yu vaguely guessed what Liao Ting wanted to do, so she hurriedly stood up and followed Liao Ting out of the room.

Then she took the elevator, went downstairs, came outside, and got into the car prepared for her by the municipal government.

"Master, go to the Municipal Public Security Bureau."

The driver was in his thirties, wearing a white shirt on his upper body, a tie, and even white gloves on his hands.

Even when driving, his sitting posture was straight, and at a glance, he was a retired soldier.

"Good, please sit steady."

The driver drove very steadily and quickly. In less than twenty minutes, the car turned into the Municipal Bureau compound.

After the car stopped steadily, Liao Ting got out of the car, looked up at the solemn building of the Municipal Bureau, and a mocking smile appeared on her face.

She had been here three times, and every time after reporting the case, she would be beaten to the Huangpu Branch where Han Zhipei's big brother, Han Zhiyong, worked to be handled.

The first time she had nothing to say, but the second and third time she came to report to the police, knowing that Han Zhipei and Han Zhiyong were brothers, they still did this, which already explained the problem.

It's just that she came again this time, but she was actually very hopeful that after she reported to the police, it would still be sent to the Huangpu Branch to be handled.

"President Liao!"

Kong Yu knew the private matter Liao Ting mentioned, which definitely had to do with the man this morning. She didn't expect it to be the Public Security Bureau.

"Are you going to report to the police?"

She felt that for that little thing this morning, even reporting to the police would be useless.

"You don't understand." Liao Ting said indifferently, and stepped onto the steps.

The driver sitting in the car watched Liao Ting and Kong Yu enter the Public Security Bureau gate, and the expression on his face was very solemn.

Hesitating again and again, he still got out of the car, came to the guard post, and took out his work ID.

"I want to make a phone call, there is an important matter to report to the municipal leaders."

The armed police on guard looked at the ID and saluted.

The driver took back the ID and put it in his pocket, then picked up the phone and called Executive Vice Mayor Liu Guangjun. ===== CHAPTER 1926 =====
