Material Empire

After receiving Liu Xuping's order, Chen Hao also fought hard. He found a few buddies in the factory who usually walked around a lot, and arranged for them to inquire about Hongze Electric Machinery Factory. He also went through several layers of relationships, found some relatives and friends to find out the movements of various executives of the Daqin Group, and then compared with Tian Ruzhi's whereabouts to see if he could find evidence of contact between the two parties. As for himself, he simply disguised himself as a migrant worker, and Tmall was at the gate of Hongze Electric Machinery Factory, waiting to catch all kinds of clues with the spirit of waiting for rabbits.

Hard work pays off. On the third day after Chen Hao started his investigation, an important piece of information reached his ears: the Daqin Group’s Hongze office sent a car to the airport, supposedly to pick up Qin Hai who had returned from the capital. . When he got the news, Chen Hao immediately sent someone to inquire about Tian Ruzhi's movements, and the reply he got was that Tian Ruzhi did not participate in the recruitment today, but left the Hongze factory by car with Zhou Linlei and several other middle-level cadres, and he didn't know where he was going.

"Can you find out where they went?" Chen Hao asked his informant on the phone.

"I asked several people, and they all said they didn't know, and the driver of the convoy didn't know either." The informant responded.

"Damn it!" Chen Hao sighed. He could believe that Tian Ruzhi must have gone to see Qin Hai, and if a photo of the two of them meeting could be taken, then all suspicions would be backed up. But who knows where they met?

At this time, Chen Hao's informant from the School of Materials called and said that Sun Yuzhi had just received a call, and then hurriedly called a taxi and went into the city. Fortunately, this informant still had some qualities of an agent. He stopped Sun Yuzhi's car at the gate of the School of Materials Science and Technology, and asked Sun Yuzhi where he was going under the pretext of hitchhiking, but Sun Yuzhi didn't care at all. Without doubt, he directly stated his destination:

Hongze Hotel!

"That's great! I'll give you credit for it when it's done!"

Hearing this news, Chen Hao jumped three feet high, almost throwing his phone out. After promising a high reward, Chen Hao hung up the informant and dialed Liu Xuping directly.

"Assistant Liu? I have good news for you. I have received the exact news that Qin Hai is going to meet Tian Ruzhi. At least Qin Hai, Tian Ruzhi, Zhou Linlei and Sun Yuzhi will attend the meeting, and there may be some other people. The place where they met was Hongze Hotel." Chen Hao said excitedly.

"Okay, that's great!" Liu Xuping said with great joy as if he had found a treasure, "Hurry up to the Hongze Hotel, and make sure to take a photo of their meeting. It must be clear and you must face it!"

"But, Assistant Liu, I'm afraid I can't take the picture alone." Chen Hao said timidly, "Looking at their sneaky looks, I guess they won't meet publicly outside the hotel, but may open a room , or borrow a conference room to meet. In this way, I will not be able to take photos of them together. If I can take photos of them entering the same hotel successively, can such photos be used as evidence?"

"This kind of photo is useless!" Liu Xuping scolded angrily, "When they explain that they just went to the same hotel by chance, what shall we say? There are more people going to the hotel every day, we can say that they are all related ?”

"Then what should we do?" Chen Hao was worried. He was a technician himself, so he was really not proficient in this kind of espionage work.

Liu Xuping instructed: "You find out which conference room they are meeting in, and then when they are all here, rush in, take a photo and leave. The fact that they have a meeting in one conference room fully proves that they are related. , when the time comes, hand over the photos to the governor, and this will be ironclad evidence!"

"This..." Chen Hao was dumb. Thanks to Liu Xuping for thinking of such a bad move, not to mention whether he has the ability to rush into other people's meeting rooms, even if he rushes in and takes a photo, can he still come out whole? There is no need for other people to do anything, just Qin Hai is enough to settle himself. During that time, Qin Hai often went to the technical department of Anhe Electric Machinery Factory. Chen Hao was very familiar with him, knowing that the chairman was a foundry worker, and he was quite capable. If he was caught by Qin Hai, and the camera was confiscated, and the film was pulled out to expose him, he would be covered in mouths and couldn't tell.

"Xuping, this matter...is not easy." Chen Hao called Liu Xuping's name, playing the emotional card. Anyway, we are also classmates, you can't force me to find abuse, right?

"It's not easy, you just need to find a few more people to go with you." Liu Xuping said.

"Look for someone else... I'm afraid there will be too many people talking, if someone leaks the news, won't we be in vain?" Chen Hao desperately found an objective reason to reject Liu Xuping's suggestion. Of course, the reason he said is also valid. The informants he found can pass information, but no one would want to let them die. What I can give to others is only tens of dollars in remuneration. This amount of money is really not worth it to publicly offend such a giant as the Daqin Group.

Not to mention those informants, even Chen Hao himself is suspicious when he thinks about wrestling with Qin Hai. Liu Xuping has the status of a foreign businessman as a protective umbrella, and he has nothing. With Daqin Group's status in the province, he has to deal with himself alone. Isn't it a breeze for little engineers?

"It's really impossible...I'll go with you." Liu Xuping on the other end of the phone heard Chen Hao's concerns, he hesitated for a moment, and finally made up his mind to go out in person. As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. In order to regain trust in front of Mitsumasa Ogura, Liu Xuping decided to go all out.

Hearing that Liu Xuping went out in person, Chen Hao felt much more at ease. After all, Liu Xuping was sent by the Xiaoyuan Club. Although he was Chinese, he was considered a foreign businessman, so Qin Hai presumably would not be able to get rough on him. At that time, as long as the evidence that Qin Hai and Tian Ruzhi are in the same meeting room is seized, Qin Hai will not be able to be tough, because Wang He will come forward at that time, and things will develop in a direction that is beneficial to Xiaoyuan Club.

The two set off separately, and met outside the Hongze Hotel ten minutes later. They came just in time, because a few minutes later, a taxi stopped outside the hotel, and Sun Yuzhi walked out with a briefcase.

"Snapshot, snapshot, this is also one of the evidences." Liu Xuping urged Chen Hao.

Chen Hao raised the seagull camera in his hand, and snapped several shots in a row. His photography skills are not very good, but fortunately, this kind of photos does not seek any aesthetic feeling.

Both of them were hiding in the bushes outside the hotel, and there was no one else around, which was suitable for them to take a sneak shot.

After taking the photo, he watched Sun Yuzhi enter the hotel gate, and after waiting for a few minutes, Chen Hao came out from the bushes, pretended to be in a hurry and rushed into the hotel, and asked the doorman as soon as he entered, "Excuse me, do you have any questions?" Did you see a man in his 30s with glasses coming in with a briefcase?"

"There is such a person, just passed by." The doorman replied faithfully.

"Where did he go?" Chen Hao asked, "I'm his colleague, and I brought him something."

"Oh, he went to meeting room 1102, which is the meeting room reserved by Hongze Electric Factory." The doorman replied. Since the guest didn't order to keep his whereabouts secret, the doorman naturally didn't have to hide it. There are many organizations that hold meetings in hotels, and sometimes the doorman is responsible for being the usher, so I am quite familiar with these businesses.

"Conference room 1102." Chen Hao nodded, and while walking in, he pretended to ask casually, "Is that conference room very big?"

"It's very big. It's not a problem for 30 people to have a meeting inside." The doorman said.

"Is everyone here?" Chen Hao asked again.

"It's about the same. A dozen people have come just now." The door boy said.

Chen Hao thanked the doorman and walked towards the conference room. After walking out of the doorman's sight, he quickly walked into the toilet, checked the pits one by one, and when he was sure that there was no one there, he took out his mobile phone and called Liu Xuping.

"Assistant Liu, I've already asked about it. They rented a large meeting room for 30 people, and more than a dozen people have already arrived." Chen Hao said.

"See Qin Hai?" Liu Xuping asked.

"I can't see it." Chen Hao said, "They have already entered the conference room, I don't know if Qin Hai has arrived."

"Just wait, don't startle the snake, I'll come right away." Liu Xuping ordered.

Chen Hao found a pit to squat in, waiting for Liu Xuping. Fortunately, the toilets in the hotel are cleaned very clean, there is no peculiar smell, and there is even the aroma of some cheap air fresheners. After waiting for a few minutes, Liu Xuping flashed in, and Chen Hao quickly came out of the pit. The moment his eyes met, the picture was so beautiful that people dare not look directly at it.

"How is it, is Qin Hai here?" Liu Xuping lowered his voice and asked anxiously.

"I didn't dare to stay outside, I kept squatting here. But there seems to be no sound in the corridor." Chen Hao also whispered, and at the same time glanced at the door of the toilet from the corner of his eye, in case someone came in.

"Well, wait a minute, in case Qin Hai's plane is delayed, let's go now, I'm afraid we will miss out." Liu Xuping said.

"How about... shall we wait here?" Chen Hao suggested cautiously.

"We can only wait here." Liu Xuping had observed the environment when he came in just now, and he knew that he would be noticed if he stood in the corridor, and the only place where he could hide was the toilet.

So, the two of them found a pit and hid themselves. The word squatting may be the inspiration from this, because they can only squat like this. In order not to be overheard by intruders, they did not talk, but squatted quietly. In a bathroom in Nuo Da, only the ticking of the second hand of the two men's watches as they passed by, as well as the heartbeat and rough panting of the two men could be heard.

That picture is really beautiful...
