However, Bai Chuan was much more serious than Hong Tao. After all, this was his job. Hong Tao could play for fun but he couldn't. On the fourth day after he and Hong Tao talked at the lake, he went to Hong Tao's fishing tackle shop again.
This time, I didn’t even call Hong Tao in advance. I went straight to the fishing gear shop and then notified Hong Tao via text message: Something happened! Come quickly! Fishing gear shop!
"You're a big man!" Although Hong Tao doesn't like the idea of letting others treat him as an employee and boss him around at will, this is a serious matter after all. He is not a big shot anyway, so he shouldn't put on such airs.
Bai Chuan brought good news. The leaders of the African plan drawn up by him and Hong Tao had agreed in principle, and this program was the first shot of the column team. Now he needed Hong Tao to provide him with specific itinerary planning and date arrangements.
So that he can follow these steps to arrange their work after returning to the unit.
However, Baichuan's request was rejected by Hong Tao. It wasn't that Hong Tao wanted to refuse, but that he didn't know the specific time and itinerary. He had entrusted Harrison to help contact him, and he had to find Austin for help.
After contacting the hunting guide company in the United States, Hong Tao and Boss Liu have yet to receive a reply as to what stage of progress it has made.
At this time, Hong Tao also felt that he seemed to be a little quick to talk. Normally, things like this that have not been finally confirmed should not be talked about with others, let alone people like Bai Chuan. This is for work and not for entertainment. If in the end this time
The trip failed to take place for some reason, and the person who suffered the most was not Hong Tao or Boss Liu, but Bai Chuan. How can people still mess around in the workplace?
Thinking of this, it was too late for Hong Tao to regret it. He hurriedly jogged all the way to Boss Liu's courtyard and told him the general situation. Boss Liu didn't mind too much about one or two more random reporters.
, but he is a little reluctant to be on TV.
Boss Liu can be regarded as a very low-key wealthy person. He neither drives around in luxury cars nor spends a lot of money to support female celebrities. He usually doesn't show off his appearance. People of his age are...
Those who have climbed up from a bitter background, and those who want to be the first to be shot, including
I still agree very much with the old principles of not showing off your wealth when you have a wife. If you wanted to be on TV, he would have been on it a few years ago. Let alone a documentary, even if you are the leading actor in a TV series, as long as you are willing to spend the money
It’s not like you can’t pawn money, so you don’t have to do it.
However, his mind is not full of stubborn old ideas, and he is also willing to slowly accept some of the changes and trends of the times, so he is not too opposed to the suggestion made by Hong Tao. But he put forward a condition, that is
There cannot be any information about him in this film, not even the back view.
Hong Tao agreed to Boss Liu's condition very simply. Since he had taken over the job himself, he must be the protagonist. As for whether there would be any side effects of such an appearance, Hong Tao was not worried at all.
Because he doesn’t have a company to take care of or rich property to hide like Boss Liu. He is just an ordinary citizen. This is what is meant by the saying that people who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes. The greater the burden you carry on many things, the more worries you have.
The more.
After he finished fooling Boss Liu, he no longer cared about how much international long distance calls cost per minute, so he immediately took out his phone and called Harrison.
"Tao! You will be cursed by God! Don't you have a watch? Look what time it is!" Harrison who answered the phone was very unfriendly! He almost cursed.
However, Hong Tao heard from the phone call why he was angry. Rather than being woken up in the middle of the night, it was more that Hong Tao's phone call had disturbed Harrison's sexual life. There was a faint sound of a woman's voice on the phone.
sound.
Harrison is an old bachelor. He must have been in bed most of the night, and there was a woman's voice. What could he be doing? It's obvious that he has lice on his bald head!
"Handsome guy, I don't want to disturb your good things at this time, but I encountered a little problem, and the first thing I thought of was asking you for help. If you are too busy, I will try to find Pawei first, but I am worried that he will solve it
No..." Hong Tao was not afraid of Harrison's roar at all. According to Chinese speaking, this little old man was a sharp-tongued person with a cruel heart. He was usually taciturn and had a stinky face, but he had a very kind heart.
Heart, and very soft.
"What's the matter? Pawei can't solve the problem that I can't solve, tell me first?" Sure enough, Harrison was fooled, his tone also slowed down, and the anger just now was extinguished instantly.
"Well, I want to ask how you got in touch with me about the African safari? I'm going to hire a photographer to record the whole process of the safari, and then make a short documentary to sell to the TV station. Now I need to determine the approximate
The departure time and itinerary, so I have to disturb you." Hong Tao told half truths and half lies, perfectly, and he did not draft these words in advance, relying on his profound skills to make them up and sell them now.
"Didn't that fat guy Pawei contact you? I finished the matter last week. He said he had your email address, so I gave him everything!" When Harrison heard what Hong Tao said, he immediately became angry.
Came up again.
"Ah!? Oh, I'm sorry. I haven't checked the mailbox in the past few days. I'm going to check it right away. Okay, it's okay. You go on, you go on!" Hong Tao felt a pain in his heart when he heard Harrison's answer.
! This international long distance call was wasted. Why didn’t you think of checking the mailbox first?
"Next time you want to call me, you'd better check your watch first! You look more and more like that damn fat man, you..." Harrison's roar came from the phone again.
, Hong Tao didn't wait for him to finish speaking, and hung up the phone directly. Now that he's finished talking about the business, how can he have the spare money to listen to you curse!
Sure enough, there was an email from Pawei lying in Hong Tao's mailbox. Even though Pawei was so rough, his thoughts were very meticulous. Not only did he send several copies of the American hunting guide company in the attachment,
I also wrote a special note to Hong Tao about the scanned documents, detailing several issues that needed attention in these documents.
Hong Tao looked at the date of this email. Well, it was 5 days ago. It is estimated that if Hong Tao doesn't call Harrison in the next two days, Pawei will have to call him. It's really a bit awkward to handle this matter by himself.
Very reliable.
The full name of the American hunting guide company that Harrison helped contact was Naison International Hunting Consulting Company. The company was registered in the western city of Seattle in the United States. Through the materials in the email and Pavey's description, Hong Tao got a rough idea of this company.
The size and strength of the company.
It was established in 1995. It is said that it has signed agreements with more than 20 private hunting grounds in Africa. The hunting range is almost all over the African continent, but the focus area is still in central and southern Africa. The founder of the entire company is also the actual company now.
The leader's name was Jean Naison. When Hong Tao saw this name, he thought he was a Frenchman, but Hong Tao guessed wrong. He was a Belgian-American.
I don’t know what Mr. Jean thinks. In the main introduction materials of his company, there is nothing about prey, itinerary, prices, etc. Even the few pictures are photos of hunting camps, but for
The history of his company was clearly explained.
Jean-Naisson joined the French Foreign Legion when he was young. He worked there for 10 years. After retiring, he stayed in Africa for 6 years. He did nothing else. He was still doing his job, being a soldier! A mercenary! Whoever paid him
Help someone fight the war. There is a Chinese saying: If you often walk by the river, your shoes will inevitably get wet!
This saying is not only effective in China, but also in Africa. At least Mr. Naison was right. During the Rwandan Civil War in 1994, he and his companions were surrounded by opponents. Mr. Naison was lucky.
, he did not commit his life to Africa, but he was seriously injured and had to run back to the United States and stay in the hospital for more than a year to save his life.
