For the sake of Mahathir’s dozens of boxes of US dollar cash, and of course there may be other motives and reasons, the mysterious Han man finally took a deep breath and introduced himself:
"My dear Wang Yuxuan, I have some relatives and friends with the boss of Ting Hsin Group. You are investigating Miss Qin Yaqin's design case, and you also want to know if she has any backup plans. In fact, we have also been investigating before, and compared with
You are still nervous."
Mahathir nodded slightly. He had heard a little bit about what kind of company Ting Hsin Group was. He knew that it was just a Taiwanese-owned food group that mainly sold Kang Shuaifu instant noodles and Dicos fried chicken. The reason why he knew
, it’s not because of how big the business of Ting Hsin is or how well-marketed the products are in West Asia, which is world-famous, but simply because the boss of Ting Hsin overreaches his capabilities and wants to build the tallest building in the world to attract attention.
"I know you, you also want to build the tallest building in the world."
Wang Yuxuan admitted: "Yes, it is our 111 Building in Wanwan. Therefore, we also want to know how deep the design potential of Gu Kun's project is, so we have done a lot of work and have spied on some news...
…”
(Note: Due to the competition with Lanfang, the 101 Building was also designed to be slightly taller and became the 111 Building, with ten more floors, and some floors were even higher.)
It turned out that this Wang Yuxuan was the same Wang Yuxuan who was sent by the top officials two or three years ago to spy on the Lanfang Tower project and the related designs of the Tongji Hospital.
At that time, Wang Yuxuan was just over thirty years old, and he was pretty good-looking. He even thought about pursuing Qin Ya and dragging her into rebellion. However, later he only got some information leaked by Qin Ya, but he did not get Qin Ya herself.
Go into the water - Although Qin Ya is a designer and has never found a boyfriend that she likes, she doesn't like him either.
A woman who is a perfectionist with a bit of an artist's air can easily turn into a nagging person who puts her eyes above her head and is looked down upon by everyone.
However, I don’t know what happened, but maybe it was the rejection that aroused Wang Yuxuan’s competitive spirit. The more Wang Yuxuan carefully observed and tried to find Qin Ya’s loopholes, the more he discovered that Qin Ya was very charming.
Temperament. Although her skin and appearance are not really a top-notch beauty, she can only be regarded as above average.
So much so that after two or three years, Wang Yuxuan still couldn't forget it.
Today, he was just attending the ceremony at the Burj Al Arab Hotel to check out other information. The reason why he was bribed by Mahathir's subordinates by accident was complicated and tortuous, and there were hidden secrets that cannot be explained clearly in a few words.
Of course Mahathir didn't know the twists and turns behind this. He just listened to Wang Yuxuan's explanation of the public information, frowned slightly, and interrupted rudely: "Since this information is so important to you, then you can
Is it all about money? You are not afraid of being kicked out. It seems that your internal discipline is very loose."
Of course, Mahathir spoke in his native language, and there were confidants beside him who acted as translators.
His demeanor between what he said and what he said was almost like "I look down on you" written on his face, and his suspicion of distrust was also greatly increased. However, Wang Yuxuan was originally bribed by his subordinates, so he didn't want to be too straightforward.
Bai Di blamed the other party for "why it was so easy to be bribed."
This is a very complicated mood, but it is easy for onlookers to understand, a bit like Gou Jian to Bo Pu.
Of course Gou Jian needs Bo Pu, the traitor next to Fu Cha, to help him succeed, and he also needs gold, silver, jewelry and beauties to serve him well. But if one day Gou Jian really succeeds, his attitude will become irrelevant. Everyone needs a traitor within the enemy.
But he looks down on these traitors and hopes that his subordinates will be absolutely loyal.
(Note: Historically, there is controversy over whether Gou Jian executed Bo Pu. In fact, according to the records in "Zuo Zhuan", Bo Pu was not executed. Later, Bo Pu was still in a high position and made appearances. But the mainstream theory is that he was killed. It may have been the result of Confucianism in the past dynasties.
The dog needs to be disguised as loyal to his master, so he will gradually recover from it.)
When Wang Yuxuan heard this, he smiled slightly jokingly but sadly: "No need to hide it, I know you must look down on me. I also told the truth, for money, this is of course the main purpose.
On the other hand, I have actually seen through that my uncle and Boss Wang of Ting Hsin, who just spent a little over a billion dollars to build the tallest building in the world to compete for this reputation, actually can't last much longer - with my help
After they tried their best to find out the potential bottom line of Lanfang Tower, the design of 111 is only more than 20 meters higher than the limit of Lanfang Tower.
This technical content can only ensure that 111 will definitely be the tallest in the world when it is completed. However, there is no guarantee how long this world record can be maintained after it is completed. The gap of more than 20 meters may someday lead to technological advancements that we still don’t know yet.
, it went beyond that.
Therefore, I think that if the 111 Building can remain the tallest in the world for three years, it will be considered a passing grade. If it remains the tallest building in the world for five years, it will be considered a small surprise. In this case, why should I bother with a little timeliness for a competitor that is still planning?
I have trouble getting along with money.
Of course, this is not the main reason why I am willing to communicate with you. I also have a personal grudge, so I can only count on you."
When Wang Yuxuan mentioned this, Mahathir's trust in him increased after his inner evaluation.
Because these words are indeed in line with industry logic.
The secrets held by commercial spies are all time-sensitive. Things that were valuable a few years ago may not be as valuable as time goes by. To put it harshly, in the most extreme case, even if Wang Yuxuan doesn’t sell anything, the most
In one and a half to two years, when the roof of the 111 Building is completed and the main structure is completed, will commercial espionage be needed? The results can be seen from just a few photos of news reports?
Therefore, one or two years before completion, the information can still be sold at a price, and the psychological burden on the seller will indeed be much lighter. At this time, there are tycoons from the Middle East who are willing to pay more than a dozen boxes of U.S. dollar cash to buy the information.
Sell it.
This moment, the other moment. The money he gave to Mahathir today was much more expensive than what he bought from Qin Ya two or three years ago.
It’s simply more cost-effective than real estate speculation.
Mahathir nodded: "This is not unreasonable. Let me tell you the main reason why you decided to take refuge in me."
Wang Yuxuan took a deep breath and showed a somewhat painful look: "The last reason why I am willing to cooperate with you is that I think I still have feelings for Miss Qin. Although she rejected me, even though I was just for
I only used a beauty trick on her to spy on her, but the more I got to know her, the more I found that she was still very attractive.
Later, she disappeared. At the opening ceremony of Burj Al Arab, she did not present the project as a representative of the designer. I have some side evidence and can infer that something unexpected happened to her - maybe I was the one who harmed her.
Gu Kun obviously discovered that the design limit of Lanfang Tower is no longer as good as our 111 Building. It must be because of Gu Kun's paranoia, so he found out that Miss Qin took money and sold some design data. Maybe Miss Qin had been secretly
Deal with it and set an example to others."
When Wang Yuxuan said this, Mahathir finally became a little nervous, as if he realized that he had dug up a big secret.
"Gu Kun...is he so cruel? It won't help him to do this, right? Instead, it will only cause trouble. Lan Fang is so weak, if this is true, can he withstand the wrath of China?" Mahathir still didn't dare.
believe.
Wang Yuxuan took it for granted and retorted: "If it were you and someone betrayed you, do you think it would be cruel? As for motivation, punishment, and setting an example, wouldn't it be enough? According to my investigation, Ms. Qin's colleagues have not been seen for at least half a year.
She said, calculating the time, it was almost exactly the time when our 111 Building disclosed some design indicators and made it clear that it could surpass the Lanfang Tower."
After hearing this, Mahathir immediately stopped questioning this point.
If someone betrays him, the Nine Clan should be punished.
In fact, of course they were treating a gentleman with a villain's heart. How could Gu Kun be so mindless and cruel?
But then, he thought of another question.
Mahathir immediately asked: "According to what you said, your 111 Building is a sure win over Lanfang Tower? There will be no more variables? If Gu Kun was a smokescreen for you, he couldn't really be so angry and clean it up
Portal."
Before that, although he subconsciously noticed that this might be a preset condition for today's conversation, he did not think about it in detail and did not want to believe it.
"Of course, although, because we are too good, we may have killed Miss Qin." Wang Yuxuan said proudly.
When Mahathir heard the specific news from Wang Yuxuan, his first reaction was that it was ridiculous and he felt that the other party was bragging.
However, Wang Yuxuan's confidence and sincerity when he said these words are really touching and make people suspicious——
This is also his traditional performing arts. Just like when they say "Chinese people can't afford tea eggs/instant noodles/pickled mustard", they are just as sincere, funny, and sincerely believe it from the bottom of their hearts.
That kind of mysterious self-confidence increased the appeal of Wang Yuxuan's words, and Mahathir couldn't help but decide to be patient and listen to what happened.
"You are very confident. As far as I know, your 111 Building has not been completed yet. Are you so sure that you can surpass Lanfang Tower now?"
Wang Yuxuan: "We are very convinced that the design of the Lanfang Tower is to reach 610 meters, and our 111 Building is 630 meters. If there is an unexpected emergency, we can temporarily add a decorative spire——
Sir, if you are interested, please add a few more boxes of dollars and I can give you more detailed and ironclad evidence."
Mahathir did not agree, but fell into his own thinking: "It seems that if we want to ensure that Iprasin's project is the first in the world, it is no longer important to spy on the inside story of Lanfang Tower. It would be best if we could spy on it."
, it’s just too confidential.
On the other hand, Wanwanren's 111 Building can be used as an imaginary enemy to defend against the tallest building in the world. As long as it clearly exceeds the 111 Building, leave some margin, and it is best to increase the height in the future to prevent others from surpassing it within ten or eight years.
Then my investment will not be lost..."
After making up his mind, Mahathir knew what to do.
"Go and get a few more boxes of U.S. dollars for Mr. Wang."
