Hang in there, everything will calm down.
Salary raises and year-end bonuses will come as scheduled.
Back at the dorm, Liu Hailong kicked off his shoes and lay on the bed, sighing, "If youâre on vacation and not studying, youâre just sleeping."
Itâs important to balance work and rest, not to mention I didnât sleep well last night at all.
"Hello, the boss is not here right now. Iâll consult for you when he returns."
After hanging up the call from Samsungâs Li Yuzhi, Xia Xiaomin felt a bit of a headache.
At this moment, it was clear the boss was still sleeping.
Without permission to enter the bedroom, it was inconvenient to go in.
She could only hold off and wait for the boss to wake up naturally before reporting.
On the other hand, Samsungâs Li Yuzhi thought that Candy Technology Park was dealing with "hygiene issues," making it inconvenient for outsiders to enter. Thatâs why there was no immediate response to the repeated meeting request for this afternoon.
Staying in a hotel, Li Yuzhi was not in a good mood.
If the technical data couldnât be obtained, theyâd have to find a way to reverse-engineer it from the product.
People from Xia Country can learn all sorts of technologies from various countries. He couldnât believe Samsung couldnât handle this.
But deep inside, a voice was telling him how difficult it is to crack the graphene battery product.
Especially when itâs a product of Candy Technology.
Looking up at the ceiling from the sofa, Li Yuzhi mumbled to himself:
"Weâll have to see if we can approach the research staff in the lab once things calm down."
"People always have weaknesses."
Li Yuzhi was convinced money could solve many problems.
If a million doesnât work, then ten million; if ten million doesnât work, then a hundred million.
It will eventually break peopleâs will.
If worse comes to worst, there are always other angles to explore.
In the current situation, itâs impossible.
Whoever has their sights on graphene battery technology is undoubtedly running headfirst into trouble.
Even with a stubborn head, itâs no use.
Just then, someone heâd brought over came in quietly and said:
"Crown Prince, the police are conducting a regular room check outside."
"They say itâs to crack down on HDD and want us to cooperate."
In a calm tone, Li Yuzhi spoke:
"Then letâs cooperate with the inspection."
"We are all legitimate business people, arenât we?"
The subordinate looked down awkwardly; he didnât dare respond.
Youâve already said weâre legitimate business people. How could he say otherwise?
Itâs impossible; after all these years of climbing up to this position.
He didnât want to lose his job because of a slip of the tongue, wasting more than ten years of youth.
"Thank you for your cooperation."
After that, two police officers went to the next room and knocked on the door.
In the Huo County Police Department, it was crowded. Just the people theyâd brought in, Qin Yuzhu thought there were enough to fill a concert audience.
Qin Yuzhu knew not everyone they caught was targeting Candy Technology, but anyone caught had enough evidence against them.
Thatâs why many people had bewildered faces, protesting their innocence.
For a moment, Qin Yuzhu felt a bit annoyed.
Pointing to one of the loudest protesters, she said:
"Yao Yuanyuan, read this guyâs record of crimes over the years."
"Youâre lucky we spared your dignity, and you have the audacity to shout innocence."
Called out by Qin Yuzhu, Yao Yuanyuan, a young woman with short hair, looked with disgust at Li Mingsheng, then took out a tablet to read from the record:
"Li Mingsheng, male, 53 years old."
"On the night of June 19, 2007, after drinking and driving, you caused the death of a person and fled the scene."
"On January 6, 2009, you changed your name and..."
A minute later, the criminal who was previously yelling looked at Li Mingsheng with hatred.
In the underworld, nothing is more despised than an unfilial person.
Qin Yuzhu stopped Yao Yuanyuan from continuing and said to Li Mingsheng in a flat tone:
"Li Mingsheng, do you still feel wronged? Do you want to continue?"
ââââââ
Waking up, Mo Jingchun picked up his phone and immediately blurted out a colorful expression.
"Oh crap, itâs two in the afternoon???"
The kid? Did he go to the cafeteria on his own because he was hungry...
Jeez, Mo Jingchun immediately covered his face.
As for the kidâs safety, Mo Jingchun wasnât worried. With so many people watching, plus Zeroâs 24-hour surveillance, if there was any danger, Zero would have woken him up long ago.
Thereâs no way the little guy could go hungry; heâs quite smart.
If heâs hungry, heâll definitely look for Xia Xiaomin or Feiyan for food.
After washing his face and brushing his teeth, Mo Jingchun came out of the bedroom.
Then, two pairs of big eyes looked his way.
Mo Jingchun awkwardly chuckled, "Morning~ Ha~"
Wow, he slept like a log.
It was already afternoon, and Mo Jingchun felt instantly embarrassed.
Xia Xiaomin had a face full of resentment, while the little guy seemed indifferent.
With a cheeky smile, he said, "Brother, sister Xia put your meal in the microwave."
"Sister Xia said, when you wake up, heat it for five minutes."
"Five minutes only~ not more, not less."
"Thanks."
While watching cartoons with the little guy, Xia Xiaomin said:
"Boss, Apple and Samsung both called this morning, asking if you have time this afternoon."
Turning the microwave, Mo Jingchun replied:
"Let them come, at three-thirty."
"Okay."
After notifying both parties, Xia Xiaomin put the little guy in her office chair.
"Sister is stepping out for a bit, so Candy, watch the cartoons yourself~"
"Okay, okay."
In the meeting room, Xia Xiaomin personally arranged the setup a bit.
Once everything was in place, Xia Xiaomin went downstairs to wait at the South Gate of the park for the people from Apple and Samsung.
"Hey, girl, come in and sit."
Called by the bossâs uncle, Xia Xiaomin hesitated for a second, then walked in.
Compared to being indoors, Xia Xiaomin preferred being outside in this season, not stuffy nor too hot.
Even the pungent smell of disinfectant in the morning was dispersed by the breeze.
"Uncle, you were looking for me?"
Zhou Xing glanced outside and asked quietly:
"Girl, last night... did a lot of people die?"
"It was quite noisy."
Initially, Xia Xiaomin thought it was something else, but it turned out to be about this.
She wasnât involved last night and was kept safe in the dorm building, unable to come out, so she didnât know the details.
Even if she did know, she couldnât say.
With a helpless gesture, Xia Xiaomin said:
"Uncle, I was stuck in the dorm last night too."
"You were there too, thatâs good, safe!"
"Oh, you tell me, why canât people live in harmony now?"
"I even checked the surveillance this morning, guess what, all gone."
Hearing this, the corner of Xia Xiaominâs mouth twitched.
Indeed, the uncle was the uncle; his first instinct was to check the surveillance.
"Uncle, why donât you ask the boss? I really donât know the situation."
"Ah, never mind then."
