362: Chivalrous Liu Xiaolin
"Mm, General Manager Lai, this suggestion is quite good. After I arrive in Yuhai City and find the evidence, I'll contact Director Zhao and see if he can help."
Liu Xiaolin nodded and said.
"That's right. Your personal strength isn't enough to compete with those rogue shareholders. You need to find more powerful partners."
Lai Junying said.
"Okay, then I'll go back and tell Tongtong, pack my bags, and leave tomorrow."
Liu Xiaolin stood up, preparing to leave.
"You plan to take Hong Tongtong to Yuhai City with you?"
Lai Junying asked in great surprise.
"No, I don't want her to worry, so I'll just tell her I'm going to Yuhai City to invite an expert and won't be back for a while."
Liu Xiaolin said with a smile, "This matter is somewhat risky; I can't let a girl follow me into danger."
"That's right. If there weren't so many things to deal with here, I'd really want to go with you."
Lai Junying said anxiously, "You're too young; I'm afraid you won't handle things reliably."
"Then could you help me brainstorm some ideas now?"
Liu Xiaolin wanted to help Hai Zhezhe out of a sense of chivalry, but he didn't have any plans yet, so he wanted to hear if Lai Junying had any ideas.
"If I were you, I would pretend to be a customer to approach those black-hearted shareholders who harm people, and then approach Haizhe Technology's financial staff. Only then would you have a chance to find evidence."
Lai Junying spoke the idea he had just come up with, "How about you disguise yourself as a purchasing specialist for our Langfang Fine Carving and approach the relevant personnel at Haizhe Technology under the pretense of buying smart streetlights?"
"That works too?"
Liu Xiaolin never imagined that one day he would become an undercover agent, a lone hero!
"Of course it can. We just signed a small garden project contract with the landscaping company. I'll have them draw some fake design blueprints that require a large number of smart streetlights.
You can take the contract and the fake blueprints to talk business with them.
Won't that be a natural progression with no flaws?"
Lai Junying suddenly felt like he could also become an undercover agent.
"That's a great idea! Then tell the landscaping company people right away.
Have them finish the fake design blueprints tonight and give them to you.
You print the blueprints, make a copy of the contract, get everything ready, and I'll pick them up when I pass by here tomorrow on my way out."
Liu Xiaolin felt Lai Junying's plan was feasible, "Oh, right, quickly print me a box of Langfang Fine Carving Purchasing Manager business cards."
"Alright, leave this small matter to me. You can just come and pick them up tomorrow."
Lai Junying readily agreed.
"Okay, I'll be going then."
Liu Xiaolin looked at his watch; it was almost four o'clock, "Keep in touch anytime.
Only you and I should know about this matter; there's no need to tell a third person."
After saying that, he turned and left.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll walk you downstairs."
Lai Junying also stood up.
"No need, quickly get those few things done."
Liu Xiaolin said as he had already walked quite a distance.
Lai Junying also knew that if he didn't hurry, it might be too late.
He frantically arranged for his assistant to contact the printer for business cards and make copies of the contract, while he called the landscaping company himself.
While Lai Junying was busy, Liu Xiaolin was driving frantically on the road.
He didn't know how long it would take to solve the problem on this trip to Yuhai City, nor did he know if he could help Hai Zhezhe resolve the issue, but he had to go.
The determination of "Though a thousand stand against me, I shall go forth" had echoed in his heart countless times.
When he drove into the Jiantuan Electronics park, it was already past five o'clock.
Hong Tongtong's call came in, "Xiaolin, why aren't you back yet?"
"Oh, I'm already at the company. Come downstairs, and we'll go to the cafeteria for dinner,"
Liu Xiaolin said.
"Huh? Why aren't you asking if I want to pack food to eat back at the dorm?"
Hong Tongtong asked.
"Come downstairs first, and we'll talk when we meet,"
Liu Xiaolin said, then hung up the phone.
In a little while, Hong Tongtong bounced down to the ground floor, grabbed Liu Xiaolin's hand, and said, "Let's go, let's go, let's go eat."
"I have something to tell you.
Today, I signed contracts with the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Environmental Protection Agency.
Director Zhao recommended three experts to me.
Two are abroad, and only one is in Yuhai City.
So, tomorrow I need to go to Yuhai City to invite this expert to come out."
Liu Xiaolin said.
"Okay, then do you want me to go with you?"
Hong Tongtong asked.
"No need.
I don't know when I'll be back this time.
You just study hard in the dorm."
Liu Xiaolin said, downplaying the situation.
"Yuhai City is only a five or six-hour journey from here, how can you not know when you'll be back?"
Hong Tongtong asked, greatly puzzled.
"Oh, that expert is not easy to talk to.
I need to communicate with him properly."
Liu Xiaolin naturally couldn't tell her there might be danger on this trip.
"Really? It seems this expert is quite difficult to deal with?"
Hong Tongtong said, frowning.
"It's not that he's difficult to deal with, it's that he has many difficulties."
Liu Xiaolin explained with a smile.
"Got it.
Then go ahead to Yuhai City.
I'll take good care of myself here,"
Hong Tongtong said.
"Mm, go to the cafeteria early for dinner tonight, and make sure to be back at the dorm before dark.
Don't get scared outside again.
If you do get scared, call Lai Junying and let him take a look for you,"
Liu Xiaolin said worriedly.
"Don't worry, don't worry, I know,"
Hong Tongtong said carelessly.
The two walked and chatted, quickly arriving at the cafeteria.
Because Liu Xiaolin was thinking about what problems might arise in Yuhai City, eating felt like chewing wax.
Because Liu Xiaolin was going on a business trip, Hong Tongtong felt reluctant and had a poor appetite.
The two of them had a makeshift dinner and returned to the dorm.
"Let me help you pack your luggage.
I'm an expert in this now,"
Hong Tongtong said with a smile.
"Okay, you help me pack, and I'll go see Professor Li and the others to tell them I'm leaving tomorrow."
Liu Xiaolin suddenly remembered that since he would be gone for so long, he should inform the experts.
"Okay, you go ahead.
I'll have it packed by the time you get back,"
Hong Tongtong said with a smile.
Liu Xiaolin left and went directly to Li Zhaolong's dorm.
After knocking and entering, he found that the other three experts were also there, "You're all here?"
"These few got addicted after drinking my tea yesterday, so they came here again today to freeload on tea,"
Li Zhaolong said with a smile, "General Manager Liu, you're not here to freeload on tea too, are you?"
"I'm not here to freeload on tea.
I have something to tell you,"
Liu Xiaolin said.
"What is it?"
Li Zhaolong looked at Liu Xiaolin's serious expression and suddenly became nervous, "Could something have happened during the contract signing today?"
