Chu Tianyao and Zuo Yilin sat opposite each other, with a cup of coffee in front of them.
"Mr. Chu, I know you are a very talented person, but what's the use of just being talented these days? If you want to do great things, you have to rely on this..."
As he spoke, Zuo Yilin rubbed his fingers together and showed a somewhat meaningful smile.
"As far as I know, the Zuo family in Hong Kong City is no longer what it used to be. Are you sure you can convince your father?"
Chu Tianyao smiled and looked at Zuo Yilin.
Hearing this, Zuo Yilin felt a little guilty, but still pretended to be confident and nodded.
"No problem, what we do is to make money, my dad will definitely agree."
Although Zuo Yilin said this, Chu Tianyao had no hope at all. The reason why he was interested in Zuo Yilin was because the other party mentioned the listing of Hong Kong City.
In the 1990s, the conditions for listing in mainland China were not low. However, it was relatively easier to list on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. Especially although the Zuo family was in decline, they still had some connections. If they really went to Hong Kong to open a company, they might
You can really borrow the east wind.
Of course, Chu Tianyao was just thinking about the possibilities. After all, he didn't know the specific situation of the Zuo family now.
"Okay, here is my business card. If there is a chance in the future, I will consider Mr. Zuo's request for cooperation."
After saying that, Chu Tianyao left his business card, then stood up and left the restaurant.
"Hey, just listen to what I have to say!"
Seeing that Chu Tianyao was about to leave, Zuo Yilin was caught off guard.
In the past, it was his collaborators who begged him to invest, but he never expected that he would sometimes be rejected.
Zuo Yilin was a little unwilling to give up, and when he was about to chase Chu Tianyao and say a few more words, the waiter on the side stopped him and asked him to pay the bill.
After this delay, when Zuo Yilin turned around to chase Chu Tianyao, he found that he had already left the hotel.
…
Shenzhen City, Shekou Industrial Zone.
Compared with other inland cities, Shenzhen City, which has become synonymous with domestic special economic zones, has become a gold-fishing place in the hearts of countless people.
Fourteen years have passed since Shenzhen City officially became a special economic zone.
In the past fourteen years, the initially backward border town has become the most rapidly modernizing metropolis in China.
Downstairs of a magnificent office building.
Chu Tianyao sat at the herbal tea stall on the street and looked at the office building across the street.
Here is the headquarters office building of Sihai Group.
"Young man, let's drink some herbal tea!"
At the herbal tea stall, the proprietress who was over forty years old glanced at Chu Tianyao who had just sat down, and shouted with enthusiasm.
People in Guangdong Province like to drink herbal tea, especially in summer. There are many herbal tea stalls on the roadside.
Hearing what the landlady said, Chu Tianyao also smiled and said: "Bring me two bowls!"
At the sound of "Young Boy", Chu Tianyao drank two large bowls in one go.
After all, the weather is hot, so the most popular herbal tea sold on the streets in Guangdong Province is this kind of 癍痧 herbal tea, which has the effect of removing dampness and reducing fire, and the taste is not bad.
While Chu Tianyao was drinking tea, a taxi slowly stopped on the side of the road.
Immediately, a middle-aged man wearing a short-sleeved shirt and a pair of black-rimmed glasses walked around for a while and then walked towards the herbal tea stall where Chu Tianyao was.
"Ah Zhong, are you finishing work so early today?"
When the lady boss saw the man, she was suddenly startled, then smiled and said.
"Aunt Hua, today is the weekend, and even those who work on errands have to take time to drink tea!"
The man joked to the landlady, and they seemed to be quite familiar with each other.
The business of the Xia Tian herbal tea stall was very good, but the three or two small tables were already occupied. The man just looked at it casually, then smiled at Chu Tianyao, and sat down at the same table with Chu Tianyao.
People were coming and going on the street, and the people at the herbal tea stall did not notice the extra customer.
"Mr. Chu from Sichuan Province?"
As soon as he sat down, the man asked Chu Tianyao in a low voice.
Seeing Chu Tianyao nodded, he looked happy and then introduced himself.
"Dana Zhong, Captain of the Economic Investigation Section of Shenzhen Shekou Public Security Bureau, Comrade Chu Tianyao, we finally meet."
Dana Chung spoke Mandarin mixed with some Cantonese dialect, and there was a bit of excitement in his tone.
Hearing this, Chu Tianyao naturally knew that Zhang Tongwei had already informed the Shenzhen Municipal Public Security Bureau in advance.
"Actually, we have been eyeing the Sihai Group for some time, and the higher-ups are secretly carrying out a purge operation. However, the Sihai Group involves too many things, and the operations are extremely secretive. The higher-ups have requested that they be eliminated in one fell swoop, so we did not have any actual evidence.
Under such circumstances, I don’t want to alert the enemy.”
Dana Zhong said calmly, as if he was having a casual chat with Chu Tianyao.
Chu Tianyao also had no expression on his face.
"I have initially gained the other party's trust, but Xu Qing, a woman who is suspicious by nature, has not disclosed the next delivery time to me yet."
After hearing this, Dana Zhong's eyes also showed a hint of solemnity. Chu Tianyao rashly went to investigate the Sihai Group alone. He naturally knew how big the risk was.
"Mr. Chu, you asked someone to meet me this time. Do you need any help?"
Dana Chung asked in a low voice.
At the same time, the stall owner Aunt Hua appeared in front of the two of them with two bowls of herbal tea.
"It seems that you and Ah Zhong are friends. Today's tea is treated by Aunt Hua."
After saying that, Aunt Hua smiled and brought one of the bowls of tea in front of Chu Tianyao.
"You guys chat, I'll go take care of other guests first."
Before Chu Tianyao could say his thanks, Aunt Hua turned and left.
"Do you know the owner of this shop?"
Chu Tianyao turned to Dana Zhong and asked.
Dana Zhong nodded and said with a smile: "Aunt Hua, her husband used to be colleagues with me. Unfortunately, he died, so we people often come to take care of her business."
Dana Zhong seemed to say these words calmly, but Chu Tianyao was quite surprised.
Looking at the person in front of him, he found that Zhong Da subconsciously stretched out his left hand to pick up the tea cup. Only then did Chu Tianyao notice the calluses between the thumb and index finger of the other person's right hand.
"I used to work in anti-narcotics, but when I got injured, my superiors refused to let me do it, so I was transferred to the Economic Investigation Section."
Noticing Chu Tianyao's gaze, Dana Zhong continued to smile.
It didn't matter what he said, but Chu Tianyao noticed a trace of emotion in Dana Zhong's eyes.
"You must be curious why I chose to meet you here, right?"
Dana Chung put down his tea cup and glanced at the endless flow of people around him.
"It's dark under the lamp. They may not have thought that I dare to meet you in a place like this!"
Upon hearing Dana Zhong's question, Chu Tianyao narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up at the luxury building across the street.
When Dana Zhong heard this, he looked at Chu Tianyao with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
