Although Lu Weiwei was unhappy, she still understood Gu Chen.
Although Gu Chen is a die-hard fan of Jay Chou, when faced with this kind of choice, he will still choose to go to the E-area exit without hesitation, otherwise this would not be Gu Chen.
After thinking about it, seeing that no one had spoken, Lu Weiwei took the lead in raising her hands and said: "I, I will accompany Junior Brother Gu to the exit of Area E on duty. Should I give up this infield spot to other brothers and sisters?"
"Lu Weiwei, please think carefully, this is Jaylen, the first ten rows of the infield." He Junchao knew how precious this position was, so he couldn't help but remind him.
But Lu Weiwei's attitude remains firm: "I will go wherever Junior Brother Gu goes. Isn't it just a Jay Chou concert? Isn't it just that I can perform security tasks in the first ten rows of the infield?"
"For me, it's not a big deal. If I have another chance next time, I'll make the spot available to other brothers and sisters this time."
"Ouch!" Seeing what Lu Weiwei said, He Junchao also looked at him differently and said:
"I really can't tell, Lu Weiwei, do you still have this consciousness? I used to think you were a selfish person..."
"Eh? Stop it." Before He Junchao finished speaking, Lu Weiwei immediately interrupted: "Selfish? Your words, He Junchao, are so vicious."
"Pfft! Hahahaha!"
When everyone heard this, they also burst into laughter.
He Junchao also smiled and said: "It's not selfish, but at least I won't let myself suffer."
"It's such a hard thing, you Lu Weiwei actually want to follow Gu Chen..."
After thinking about it, He Junchao also talked eloquently:
"Okay, I admit, I'm not as noble as you and Gu Chen. So, can I, He Junchao, be included in the security mission of the first ten rows of the infield this time? I'm going to the first ten rows of the infield to watch Jay Chou's concert.
.”
"Hey!" I thought He Junchao had something to say, but after working on it for a long time, he turned out to be selfish. Lu Weiwei said in a bad mood:
"I said He Junchao, are you ashamed? Just now you said I was selfish. Now it seems that this word should be used for yourself."
"It's not a big deal if I want to watch the concert in the first ten rows of the infield, but you don't have to drag me, Lu Weiwei, into the water. I just want to be noble with Junior Brother Gu, okay?"
"Okay, of course." Seeing that Lu Weiwei had said so, He Junchao no longer struggled with her about this, and said with a smile:
"Sometimes, I feel like I'm just too honest, so you guys often take advantage of me."
"You want to say noble? I, He Junchao, also have noble moments, but this is Jay Chou. It's hard for me to continue to be noble. Why don't you, Lu Weiwei, give me your spot?"
"I have no say in this." Seeing He Junchao playing tricks, Lu Weiwei directly retorted:
"If you want to go to the infield, you have to follow Junior Brother Gu's request. We will draw lots to decide."
"No, what I mean is that we all draw lots together, and you also participate in the draw. Once you draw the lot for the infield, I happen to miss it."
Walking to Lu Weiwei, He Junchao touched Lu Weiwei with his shoulder and said:
"Aren't you noble? Why don't you just give me your place?"
"No...it will happen!" Lu Weiwei said in a long tone, but also in a bad mood:
"Junior Brother Gu and I took the initiative to go on duty at the exit of Area E. That was to give more infield spots to other colleagues."
"You asked me to participate in the lottery, and you also asked me to draw the infield lot and give it to you. Then what have I become? I am not noble, right?"
Taking a deep breath, Lu Weiwei said again: "Don't come to me for things like this. I want to follow Junior Brother Gu's footsteps and be a noble person."
"It's better to give up your little desire as soon as possible. Whether you can go to the infield depends on your luck or your character."
"Harmful." Seeing that Lu Weiwei was not on the road, He Junchao was quite helpless and couldn't help but smile and said:
"Actually, I'm just saying that. When it comes to hardship, it's not like we haven't experienced it before."
Turning to look at everyone, He Junchao also started to play the emotional card:
"Actually, who is the tool of our criminal investigation team? It should be me, He Junchao. He is a hard-working person and often works overtime."
"You can still go out and do field work and move your shins, but what about me? I can only sit in the office all the time and provide you with technical reconnaissance support."
After gesturing his body shape, He Junchao added: "Look at it now, if you want to take a physical test, I guess it will be difficult for me, He Junchao, to meet the standard."
"And this hardship is just the price I have to bear in order to satisfy my desires. No one endures hardship for the sake of hardship. Survival has never been easy."
"Haha." Listening to He Junchao's explanation, Officer Wang also smiled and said:
"I said to He Junchao, enduring hardship is not necessarily a necessary option in life, but the premise is that you must overcome your own desires."
"Okay, but I admit that I can't do it." Hearing Officer Wang's words, He Junchao also retorted:
"So in order to satisfy these desires, you are willing to suffer losses, endure more hardships, and even enjoy the painful process, even if they are completely unnecessary."
"But the most terrifying thing is that I can't get rid of desire and I am unwilling to endure hardship." Yuan Shasha interjected.
Lu Weiwei grinned and couldn't help but sigh: "I can also understand He Junchao. It's like he always loves but doesn't get it, thinks about it but doesn't speak, thinks about it but doesn't see it, and thinks about it but never forgets it."
"Everyone has difficulties and everything is helpless. What is lost will never come back, and what comes back is no longer perfect."
"The truth is correct." He Junchao lay on the seat and talked eloquently:
"Everyone in this world is always teaching me to give up. Even the book says that non-persistence is a virtue. However, I am rebellious by nature, so I have to force myself."
"And those things that I don't deserve, I have to work hard to get them. I only hope that in three to five years, I can ride a white horse across the south of the Yangtze River and admire the glory of the stars and the moon."
"Senior Brother He." After hearing what He Junchao said, Gu Chen also smiled slightly and explained:
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Although you really want to go to the infield to watch the concert, according to the regulations and the principle of fairness and openness for everyone, I still think it is best for you to participate in a lottery
.”
"Besides, how do you know you won't win the infield lottery? What if you do?"
"That's right." Seeing that Gu Chen said this, Yuan Shasha quickly agreed:
"How could you guess that you didn't win? You started to feel timid even before the lottery started. What if the goddess of luck favors you? Senior Brother He."
"Okay, okay." Seeing everyone saying this, He Junchao felt a little ashamed and quickly replied:
"Just draw lots, it's not a big deal."
Everyone looked at each other and laughed out loud.
According to the security area divisions on the email, the Furong Branch will also send corresponding police forces to support.
Being able to be assigned to the security area of the infield, for everyone, although it is work, it is definitely a benefit.
Although there are also many professional security teams hired by the organizers, and some college student volunteers to assist in the work.
However, the power of the police cannot be ignored.
Therefore, everyone started to use a small lottery program in the group to fill in everyone's names into the lottery wheel, and then continued to select the names of these people one by one through the lottery wheel.
Since it is a lottery, it is fair to all police officers under the jurisdiction of Seremban Branch.
Of course, Zhao Guozhi was unwilling to participate and had no time to participate.
But police officers Wang and Yuan Shasha of the criminal investigation team were lucky. They were both assigned to security work in the infield.
And He Junchao also caught the last train and was finally chosen at the last moment.
Seeing that the infield security quota was selected from the group, He Junchao was also very happy. He kept humming a tune in the office to celebrate his good luck.
…
…
Three o'clock in the afternoon, in the criminal investigation team office.
Listening to He Junchao always humming a tune, Lu Weiwei said impatiently: "Hey, He Junchao, you have been humming all morning, how long will you continue to hum in the afternoon?"
"We ordinary people, I'm so happy." Seeing Lu Weiwei's depression, He Junchao felt secretly happy and retorted:
"I said Lu Weiwei, I'm in a good mood, can't you make me happy?"
"But don't affect my work." Lu Weiwei also complained.
"It affects your work? That's not a big deal, right?"
"Why not? Do you want to relax your muscles and bones again?" Lu Weiwei finished her words and began to move her finger joints.
At this moment, Gu Chen's cell phone suddenly rang. When he saw that it was Ding Liang, Gu Chen immediately opened the answer button:
"Ding Liang, what's wrong?"
"Gu Chen, there seems to be some problems at the concert venue." Ding Liang said on the phone.
Since the patrol teams that Ding Liang and Huang Zunlong belong to have been responsible for patrolling and security around the concert these days, this afternoon was the time when the two were patrolling around the stadium.
When I tell myself this at this time, it is obvious that I have encountered some troubles.
Gu Chen frowned and asked quickly: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"It's just that the person in charge of materials here is missing. According to people here, it seems that he has disappeared since last night, and he has not been seen until now."
"You know, the person in charge of materials is also the boss of these workers here, and is responsible for paying them daily wages."
"But now people are missing. Many people have not received their daily wages since last night. It seems that today's work is almost completed, and the workers still have not seen any trace of this person in charge."
"So, now many workers here are getting emotional and preparing to go on strike."
"Strike?" After hearing these words, Gu Chen instinctively became alert and quickly asked:
"What's going on with the person in charge of materials?"
"I don't know. I heard from the workers here that they are pretty nice people. They come from the Magic City."
"Moreover, the workers are all temporarily recruited and are paid daily, but because we couldn't find anyone yesterday, everyone has not received daily wages for the time being."
"I thought it might be something unexpected, so everyone is planning to wait for today to receive two days of daily wages."
"But now several people in charge here said that they can't contact the person in charge of materials now, and they don't know where he went."
"Now the workers are panicking and are starting to prepare for a strike to get this man out."
After a pause, Ding Liang added: "But you also know that the concert will be held the day after tomorrow. If we can't find anyone again, there will definitely be problems at the concert."
"What did the leader of the organizer say?" Gu Chen asked again.
On the phone, Ding Liang also smiled bitterly and said: "I think this organizer is funny enough. They said that the laying of security materials around here was outsourced by them. They can't contact the missing person in charge now.
.”
"Because there's a lot of commotion here, our patrol team came here to provide support."
"But looking at this situation now, these workers seem to be quite angry, so these people are going to call the police directly and let us police find this person."
"But I heard that you seemed to have come here yesterday to check the conditions of the venue in advance and had contact with their person in charge. So, I just ran aside and called you now."
"And that guy Huang Zunlong is still communicating with these people."
Gu Chen also heard the commotion on the phone, and many people seemed to be quarreling.
Hearing what Ding Liang said, Gu Chen instinctively thought of his visit to the Jiangnan Olympic Stadium yesterday, and also thought of the person in charge of materials who he had come into contact with, and a name quickly came to his mind.
"Is the missing person's name Zhang Zhiqiang?" Gu Chen said.
This chapter is not finished yet. Please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Yes, my name is Zhang Zhiqiang. I heard that I met you yesterday. Do you want to come over and deal with it? Our patrol team is not very
We understand the situation and are maintaining order now."
"I feel like if we don't handle it well, this group of people might get into trouble, which would be troublesome. Our captain has now sent people over to provide support."
"Okay, I'll come over and take a look now." Seeing that Ding Liang was in trouble, Gu Chen also knew the missing Zhang Zhiqiang.
I thought that the day after tomorrow would be the date of Jay's concert, and now, there were already many Jay's fans and fans gathered around the venue one after another.
If this matter is not handled well, it is likely to affect the overall image of Jiangnan City.
So after Gu Chen briefly communicated with Ding Liang, he quickly hung up the phone.
Seeing Gu Chen's ugly face, Lu Weiwei also stopped arguing with He Junchao and quickly asked Gu Chen:
"What's wrong, Junior Brother Gu?"
"Over at the gymnasium, Zhang Zhiqiang is missing. The workers have not received their daily wages since last night. They cannot contact Zhang Zhiqiang today. They suspect that Zhang Zhiqiang has run away."
"So." Gu Chen took a deep breath and said helplessly: "So, the workers are making trouble again at the stadium. We have to go there quickly to provide support."
"Then what are you waiting for?" Seeing the seriousness of the situation, Lu Weiwei quickly took off the single police equipment hanging on the wall.
Yuan Shasha and Officer Wang also skillfully removed their respective equipment.
Officer Wang also reminded: "This matter cannot be delayed. Now everyone's focus is on Jay Chou's concert. If something embarrassing happens, we will use Jay Chou's concert in Jiangnan City to improve the city's image.
You will fall short."
"Yeah, we have to go there quickly." Yuan Shasha also said.
Gu Chen nodded, immediately led everyone out of the office, and took a vehicle to the scene.
…
…
Unlike yesterday, there were significantly more police cars parked outside the stadium today.
Moreover, many roads have also been cordoned off, and Gu Chen clearly felt the tense atmosphere here.
Not far away, there seemed to be a group of people gathering there, and police officers were also handling the situation.
Gu Chen quickly found the location of the incident based on the location sent by Ding Liang, so after parking the vehicle on the side of the road, he took Lu Weiwei, Officer Wang and Yuan Shasha and trotted towards a certain area of the stadium.
.
"We must give an explanation today."
"Yes, we are all here to work, not to be volunteers. We are not volunteers. We have to make money to support our families."
"That's right, how can this person just run away?"
"Everyone, calm down. This is not a runaway, but we are temporarily unable to contact you. The higher-ups are already working hard to find her. Please stay calm, everyone."
"Be calm and don't be impatient? We haven't received wages, so how can we be impatient? How about you give us wages?"
"That's right, give me the money!"
…
Amidst the commotion, Gu Chen also rushed to the scene.
So he quickly went to look for traces of Ding Liang.
And since the place was full of people, police officers and workers were all mixed in together.
Therefore, it was difficult for Gu Chen to find Ding Liang's location.
Just when Gu Chen was about to take out his cell phone and contact Ding Liang, a hand patted Gu Chen's shoulder.
When Gu Chen turned around and looked, Huang Zunlong was standing in front of him.
"Huang Zunlong? Where is Ding Liang?" Gu Chen put down his phone when he saw that the person who came was his roommate Huang Zunlong.
"Ding Liang is still over there, negotiating with these workers' representatives." Huang Zunlong sighed and said in a bad mood.
Gu Chen followed the direction introduced by Huang Zunlong and took a look.
Sure enough, at this moment, many people gathered under a big tree, and everyone was very excited.
Gu Chen couldn't care too much and quickly reminded Huang Zunlong: "Huang Zunlong, let's go over and understand the situation first."
"Okay, come with me." Huang Zunlong did not hesitate and directly led Gu Chen and others through the open space on the side.
Finally we came to the focus of the debate.
Gu Chen squeezed through the crowd and saw Ding Liang and some old comrades from the patrol team.
"Oh, Director Gu, are you here?" An old comrade also said hello when he saw Gu Chen.
"Well, come and take a look at the situation." Gu Chen agreed casually and immediately came to Ding Liang's side.
At this moment, Ding Liang was also thirsty for arguing with the workers. Seeing that Gu Chen had appeared beside him, Ding Liang was panting and patted Gu Chen on the shoulder, pointing to the people in front and saying:
"They are workers' representatives. Go talk to them."
"Okay." Gu Chen nodded in response, then walked up to the crowd and said, "What is the situation here? I was here yesterday and I have seen this Zhang Zhiqiang. Can any of you explain the specific situation to me?
?”
"Eh? I think I saw you yesterday. Are you the deputy director of the Furong branch?" A staff member wearing a reflective vest seemed to recognize Gu Chen.
Gu Chen nodded silently: "That's me."
"That's it." Seeing that everyone had met each other, the staff member wearing a reflective vest also hurriedly came to Gu Chen and explained:
"Didn't you see that Zhang Zhiqiang yesterday? He is in charge of materials here. To be precise, the management of the venue's security materials is outsourced to this Zhang Zhiqiang."
"And Zhang Zhiqiang hired someone to hire us and let us come here to work, install guardrails, and install some other materials."
"But it was clearly agreed that the work is paid on a daily basis. After finishing the work, you can go to the cashier and receive the day's salary."
Looking around, the fat staff member also said angrily: "These are the fellow villagers I asked to come to work. I thought I would bring everyone together to make a daily settlement and work for a week or so, and earn a little money to spend.
"
"Before, Zhang Zhiqiang could still pay his salary every day as promised, but yesterday, the salary suddenly stopped."
After saying this, the fat staff member also threw up his hands angrily and said: "Let's go find the cashier and ask for an explanation. The cashier and accountant have told us that the money has not arrived."
"Because it's all cash. Every night, Zhang Zhiqiang brings the cash."
"But now, they can't contact Zhang Zhiqiang, and they worked late yesterday, so the accountant and cashier asked them to settle it together today."
Looking around, the fat staff member also said helplessly:
"It's not easy to work here, and it's a big star's concert. I thought these people wouldn't give us workers such a small amount of money, so we prepared to pay our wages together today, thinking that he must have had something to do last night.
"
"But now, I heard that Zhang Zhiqiang has lost contact. The heads of those divisions can't be contacted, and the accountants and cashiers can't be found either."
"This is equivalent to saying that we have worked all day today and still can't receive daily wages. This is not acceptable. We agreed that we would be paid on a daily basis. What do you mean by missing out on us now?"
"Yes, we are paid on a daily basis, and we are recruiting temporary workers. We all have to support our families. What's going on if you don't pay us wages?"
"Yes, they said they would settle the matter, but now their own people say that the boss can't be found. Who can we believe?"
"Why don't you give us yesterday's wages first, otherwise we won't start work."
…
More and more workers seemed to be very angry with Zhang Zhiqiang, so they spoke louder and louder.
Gu Chen probably figured out the problem from what these people said to each other.
That means Zhang Zhiqiang has disappeared, and no one knows where he is now?
After thinking for a while, Gu Chen asked again: "Where are Zhang Zhiqiang's cashier and accountant?"
"In the hotel lobby next to the stadium, there is a temporary office over there," a worker said.
"Can someone take me there?" Gu Chen asked again.
"I'll take you there, but it's useless to look for them. They don't know the situation." Although the fat staff member looked complaining, he still hoped that Gu Chen would come over and solve the problem for them.
So, everyone followed the fat staff member and walked to a nearby hotel.
Others stayed where they were, under the control of the police, and remained patient enough.
"It's annoying to say it. They don't know anything when I ask them, but you can't just say you won't pay the wages of so many of our workers. It's really annoying."
Along the way, the fat staff were chattering away, seemingly angry at Zhang Zhiqiang's dishonesty.
Gu Chen didn't say anything? While not understanding the whole situation, Gu Chen felt that he needed to be patient enough.
When following the fat man to the hotel lobby, the fat man quickly pointed to one of the areas and said:
"There are several desks and sofas over there, and that is the temporary office area for this project."
"These staff members live in this hotel and work in this hotel, and when their wages are settled, they are in the lobby of this hotel."
"Every evening, we people line up here to collect our wages, but now..."
Speaking of this, the fat man also looked angry.
Gu Chen also asked casually: "Are you the person in charge of those workers?"
"That's right." The fat man nodded silently and couldn't help but said: "I recruited many of them, and many of them are my fellow villagers."
"Of course, there are also some people in charge, and their people were recruited by themselves."
"Because my friend knew Zhang Zhiqiang, he introduced me to him. I had dinner with Zhang Zhiqiang once. He said that he had got a project on material outsourcing for this concert and asked me to recruit people."
"I said yes, but the project time is not long and the salary has to be paid daily, so he agreed, but now..."
"Okay, I know, let me understand the situation first." Seeing that the fat man was also angry, Gu Chen knew that by appeasing him, he would appease the entire team of workers.
After all, this person is their opinion leader and representative.
Just when Gu Chen came to the temporary office in the hotel lobby, there was still a man and a woman sitting on the seats behind the desk.
Both of them were wearing concert-related work badges.
They also saw Gu Chen's team approaching, and also saw the fat man. The two of them instantly understood what Gu Chen meant by coming over.
"Are you Zhang Zhiqiang's cashier?" Gu Chen asked.
"Yes." The woman nodded: "I am the cashier, he is the accountant, and we are both from Zhang Zhiqiang Company."
"What's going on with Zhang Zhiqiang?" Lu Weiwei, who was beside Gu Chen, also asked quickly.
"I don't know." The accountant man also shrugged and said innocently:
"Usually, we have to make several calls a day, but now, since last night, we have been unable to contact the boss."
"Moreover, the phone calls began to be blocked. Since last night, we have been blocked by these workers for a long time. In the end, I felt that the boss might have been delayed by something temporary."
"So, I made a decision privately and asked them to pay their wages today and pay them yesterday and today together."
After a pause, the accountant man also sighed and continued to explain: "But originally I thought that the boss might have gone out to socialize and drink last night, and then his cell phone ran out of battery."
"When he wakes up and charges his cell phone, he should be able to handle this matter."
"But I don't know what's wrong? The boss's phone number just can't be reached, and I don't know how to find him now."
Having said this, the accountant man also sighed heavily, seemingly helpless.
When the fat man heard the accountant man's words, he became angry and said:
"Your boss just ran away. Otherwise, why wouldn't he pay us our wages?"
"We work for him, and he just fools us like this?"
"Brother." Seeing the fat man's excitement, the cashier woman quickly replied: "We don't know what's going on?"
"We have been working for our boss, and it has always been normal. But we don't know why we can't get in touch with our boss for so long. Maybe something happened to him temporarily."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "After the matter is resolved, I will definitely give you your salary."
"I don't believe it. I can wait, but my brothers can't wait. It's impossible for them to work for you without getting paid."
The fat man obviously doesn't accept this trick and feels that the other party is deceiving him.
Seeing that the two sides started arguing endlessly again, Officer Wang couldn't stand it anymore and quickly stopped and said: "Okay, everyone, please be quiet. If there is any problem, leave it to our police to handle it."
Seeing that the argument between the two parties had subsided a little, Yuan Shasha on the side quickly asked the accountant man: "Have you two always worked in Zhang Zhiqiang's company?"
"Yes, we have all been working with the boss for two or three years," the accountant man said.
"Then has your boss ever defaulted on workers' wages?" Yuan Shasha asked again.
The accountant man and the cashier woman looked at each other. After looking at each other for a while, they looked at Yuan Shasha.
"To be honest, there were a few times when I had conflicts with my partners and I kept the money as a deposit, but I gave it back later," the female cashier said.
The accountant man also quickly said: "The boss is actually not short of money. He has contracted many projects, but most of them are short-term projects like this."
"Many cities have celebrity concerts, and he can contract corresponding projects. Anyway, he has made a lot of money, and his reputation is still above average."
Glancing at the famous man, the accountant man continued to explain: "Besides, what do the daily wages of the workers mean? If our boss really doesn't pay wages, he will even run away as they say."
"What about these iron guardrails? Aren't these worthless? Our boss is not that stupid."
"Okay, I understand the basic situation." Seeing that the accountant man and the cashier woman spoke in great detail, Gu Chen also had a rough idea of Zhang Zhiqiang's situation.
Lu Weiwei also asked: "According to what you said, your boss will generally not delay wages?"
"Definitely not." The female cashier also said firmly: "He is such a big company and has good relations with many organizers."
"If we create a fuss over this small salary and the organizer cannot live with it, we might stop cooperating next time."
"Our boss is a businessman. He will not use his reputation in the circle to do such evil things. Something must have happened to him, so he can't be contacted."
"So, who among you saw your boss last night?" Gu Chen asked again.
