"Damn it! You lied to me!" Paul, the mayor of the Munich City Hall, yelled angrily at Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian sat leisurely on the sofa, crossing his legs and drinking coffee.
"You said you knew the people above, but what the hell! The above never said that! Also, we are in big trouble now, and those demonstrators are about to push me into a corner!" Paul became more and more angry as he spoke, and even pointed at Shi Zhijian's nose.
.
"I shouldn't trust you! Yes, I was deceived by you! Now something has happened, and the higher-ups are looking for a scapegoat, you have killed me!" Paul patted his heart, looking devastated.
"Don't be so sad, dear Paul!" Shi Zhijian put down his coffee and comforted him.
"How can I not be sad?" Paul's eyes widened and he was about to cry. "Now there are more and more people marching. In this Christmas where the whole family is happy, Munich is about to become the laughingstock of people! And as for me, as a
The mayor here is even ridiculed for his ineffective governance! God, who would have thought that this is all thanks to you!" After Paul finished speaking, all his strength seemed to have been drained, and he sat down on the sofa.
When Shi Zhijian saw that he was silent, he said leisurely: "First of all, I never personally said that there is someone above me, you just made it up in your own head!"
When Paul heard this, his expression was tangled, he clenched his fists and stared at Shi Zhijian.
"Second, this has already happened, it's useless for you to be angry again!"
"Third, if I were you, I would look at the problem from another perspective. The so-called crisis is to hide opportunities in danger. If you can seize this opportunity, not only can you turn the crisis around, you can even fly.
soaring!"
Paul was stunned by Shi Zhijian's words, "Are you brainwashing me again?"
"You are such a smart person, how can you think that way?"
"Then tell me, how can this be an opportunity?"
"Do you still understand? In fact, there are deep grievances about this matter. Even if I don't detonate it now, it will definitely explode in the future! Rather than letting you be at a loss when it explodes, we might as well detonate it ourselves and deal with it slowly!"
"Tell me, how to deal with it?" Mayor Paul asked Shi Zhijian in a tearful tone.
"Don't worry, wait until I finish drinking this cup of coffee!" Shi Zhijian picked up the coffee again and crossed his legs.
Paul rolled his eyes, but Shi Zhijian's leisurely attitude also calmed him down, making him less manic than before.
Shi Zhijian took a few sips of coffee. For the first time, he felt that drinking a cup of hot coffee in this winter was so comfortable.
"Have you finished drinking?" Paul said with a pleading tone, "If you finish drinking, tell me quickly!"
"Mayor Paul, you are a smart man. In fact, all you need to do now is to stand in line!"
"Take sides?"
"Yes! Choose to stand with the people against those vampire capitalists, or choose to stand with the capitalists and suppress the unarmed people?"
Paul was almost furious: "It seems that no matter how you take the two roads, you will end up with a dead end! If I support those demonstrators, how can the Big Three let me go? On the other hand, if I support the Big Three, I am afraid that those demonstrators will rush in
The city government smashed, looted and burned!”
"No, no, no, actually there is a mystery in this!"
"Ghost's secret!"
"Don't forget that your term as mayor is about to end. You have only two options in the future. Either get the support of the Big Three and continue to run for mayor and get re-elected! Or be bolder, gain the support of the people and vote, and be directly promoted to the capital.
, once you become a member of Congress, you might even be able to run for president in the future!”
"Gudu!" Mayor Paul swallowed, his eyes were shining, and he questioned: "How is it possible?"
"Nothing is impossible, dear Paul!" Shi Zhijian stood up from the sofa, walked to the window proudly, put one hand in his pocket, and looked down at the building below. In the snowy city, the people on the road were as small as ants.
"See, in your eyes, they are all inconspicuous ants, but don't forget that people's hearts are moving, and the votes they hold in their hands are more than the money controlled by the three giants!"
Paul and Shi Zhijian stood side by side and looked down. The people were really small and busy like worker ants.
Shi Zhijian looked sideways at Paul: "So, you are now faced with a bold choice. Choose to stand with the people, gain votes and support soaring, or choose to continue to stand with the Big Three, choose the mayor to be re-elected, and continue to
Stay in Munich and live out your political years?"
Paul clenched his fists, his face full of confusion.
"Oh God, can I not choose?" He held his head and said in pain.
Shi Zhijian shrugged, took out a delicate iron box of cigarettes from his arms, flicked it open with his thumb, took one and bit it on his mouth, then closed the box with a snap: "You walk the road yourself, no one can take your place! You said
I have deceived you before, so what if I admit it, can it change everything? No! The matter has come to this, you can only go on! No matter how hard, tiring or difficult it is, you have to go on!"
Paul released his hands holding his head and looked up at Shi Zhijian.
Shi Zhijian bit the cigarette and lit it, then took off the cigarette and gently stuffed it into Paul's mouth, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Decide, man!"
…
This Christmas in Munich has become the biggest "topic" in Europe.
The Munich Bus Company strike has also become the center of public opinion in Germany.
The numerous reports on TV stations, newspapers and magazines have made the capitalists, mainly the Big Three, very anxious.
At this time, they thought of the union and planned to bribe the union to deal with the demonstrators.
Shi Zhijian had already calculated this and immediately arranged for media reporters to interview the union presidents.
Before those union leaders received the bribes from the Big Three, they were surrounded by reporters, asking whether they would engage in "favoritism"?
How to answer this?
Immediately, these union leaders stated that they would never sit idly by, let alone engage in malpractice for personal gain. They would protest to the Big Three in the name of the union. Their union will always stand with the working people!
Finally, everyone vowed to accept media supervision!
As soon as these words came out, the media took them seriously and actually started to "supervise" them.
Faced with so much media surveillance, it is difficult for these union leaders to "steal the chicken". They can only bite the bullet and "fight to the end" with the three giants representing the capitalist class!
The Big Three never expected that things would evolve into this situation!
what to do?
According to Siemens Fred: "There is an old Chinese saying that to untie the bell, you must tie the bell! It seems that we need to have a good talk with Shi Zhijian!"
Hailsham was unwilling at first, but suddenly he changed his mind with a flash of his eyes and said with a cruel smile: "You're right! All this is the fault of that Chinese guy. This time we have to question him personally, what exactly does he want?"
…
The miserable Mayor Paul was frightened when he received the call from Hailsen and others. He kept begging for mercy on the phone, telling the other party that he was not responsible for this matter and that he was also deceived by Shi Zhijian.
At this point, there was nothing he could do.
Hailsen sneered at Mayor Paul's "begging for mercy" and just said: "We will settle our accounts later! Now we have to meet with that Shi Zhijian, please help us arrange it!"
After speaking, Mayor Paul hung up the phone with a "click" without waiting for an answer.
Mayor Paul stupidly held the microphone and opened his mouth to say something, but no sound came out of his throat.
At three o'clock that afternoon.
It is still a high-end VIP room of Hilton Hotel.
In the conference room, Shi Zhijian was not late this time. On the contrary, he arrived early this time and was enjoying the red wine served to him by the waitress in a leisurely manner.
Ax Jun had long shawl hair and stood majestically behind him, his eyes still bright, with a thick gold necklace hanging around his neck. He still had no shirt on his upper body. He was so naked in the winter, but this time he buttoned up his suit jacket.
, only part of his strong chest muscles were exposed.
Even so, he gave the waiters around him a strong sense of oppression. Walking next to Ax Jun, he felt a chill coming over him.
Mayor Paul sat down next to Shi Zhijian on pins and needles, "They are coming soon! Please, dear Shi, don't fight with them this time! Maybe things can turn around..."
Before Mayor Paul could finish speaking——
A crunch!
The door to the VIP room was pushed open!
The German three giants, Hailssen, Connor and Fred, were surrounded by people from outside.
They were in neat suits, chewing cigars, and walking calmly. There were more than thirty bodyguards and others following them. Such a large group of people poured in at once, and needless to say, they were very powerful.
"Hello!" Mayor Paul couldn't hold back such a strong aura at first and hurriedly stood up from his chair to greet him.
Shi Zhijian remained motionless, still sitting on the chair, shaking the red wine in his hand, and glanced at the Big Three intentionally or unintentionally.
The Big Three ignored Mayor Paul who came forward, pushed him aside and walked straight towards Shi Zhijian, sitting down opposite him!
Shi Zhijian greeted him without saying a word, and the three of them did not say a word either. The bodyguards lined up behind them, with their hands behind their backs, staring at Shi Zhijian eagerly.
Silence!
The atmosphere in the huge VIP room seemed strange.
There was silence for three full seconds.
Hailsen laughed: "Dear Mr. Shi Zhijian, hello!"
"I'm fine!" Shi Zhijian pretended not to understand and raised a glass: "Would you like a glass of red wine?"
Haytham snorted coldly, "No, I'm not saying hello to you, I'm talking about the good things you did!"
"I have done something good, and I still want to ask for advice..."
“Did you start the bus drivers’ strike?”
"yes!"
"Huh?" The three giants were stunned. They didn't expect Shi Zhijian to answer so simply.
Hailsen was angry and shouted: "What do you mean? How have we offended you that you want to do this?"
"Isn't it okay that I'm upholding justice?" Shi Zhijian put down his wine glass, tilted his head and looked sideways at Hailsham, "Isn't the situation they reported wrong? Are you big guys right? Don't the bus companies need reform?"
"This is Germany!" Hailsen tapped his fingers on the table, "Please recognize yourself clearly! Stop being troublesome here. If something goes wrong, you can't afford it!"
"Really?" Shi Zhijian smiled, leaned back on the chair, pinched his chin in a cynical manner and said: "Who can't afford it? I told you that you will come to beg me, aren't you here now?
?”
"Be bold!"
"hateful!"
Haytham and Connor were furious.
"Everyone calm down! Getting angry won't solve the problem!" Fred, the good old man, stood up and tried to mediate.
Mayor Paul also wanted to stand up and smooth things over, but when he saw how angry the two of them were, he immediately gave up and sat down again.
"Shi Zhijian, you are so presumptuous! Do you think we are here to beg you this time? Wrong, we are here to step on you and make you understand what it means to be humble and what it means to be pitiful!"
"Really? I like difficult challenges the most. Please step on me! Please step on me harder and don't show mercy to me!"
"you--"
Shi Zhijian's expression made Haierson speechless with anger.
Connor pointed at Shi Zhijian: "Shi Zhijian, don't be complacent! Don't you just want us to purchase your electric cars to replace those old buses? But what should we do? Even if we really purchase them, we can't
We won’t buy your electric cars! There are so many excellent car companies in Germany, we won’t pay attention to you if we just pick one!”
"Ahem, I have something to say!" Mayor Paul couldn't help but wanted to stand up and say a few words.
"Shut up!" Connor showed no mercy to the mayor.
Especially in public, with so many people watching, Paul was almost ashamed to death!
"We haven't settled the score with you yet, but you still dare to stand up and speak?" Connor pointed at Paul's nose, "Don't think that just because you are the mayor is great! Don't forget that your mayor was also paid for by the three of us!
If you dare to trick us with this kid, we will never be done with you!"
Facing Connor's merciless scolding, Mayor Paul blushed at first, his face was all blue and red, and he was so ashamed! Finally, I don't know what he thought of, he gritted his teeth, shrugged, sat down, and stopped saying anything.
Weird expression!
After Connor scolded Paul, he turned to look at Shi Zhijian and said: "Did you hear that clearly, you damn guy! Even if we compromise with the demonstrators, we will not buy your car! Let alone invest in your fund! Now, you
Go and cool off! Damn shameless bastard! I really want to know how you, bastard, feel at this moment? Hahaha!"
Facing Connor's insults, Shi Zhijian's expression remained unchanged, he just tilted his head and looked at the Big Three with interest, as if he were watching a show.
The bodyguards and servants all showed mocking expressions as they watched the three giants scolding Shi Zhijian.
For them, daring to challenge the Big Three would be a life-and-death struggle!
"I'm sorry, Mr. Hailsham, Mr. Connor, have you finished cursing? If so, let me say something -" As he spoke, Shi Zhijian stood up from the chair and straightened his tie with his hands.
Then he opened his arms, put his left thumb in his vest pocket, and looked at the people in front of him with a tycoon attitude: "First of all, I have to sell electric cars to you? Secondly, my Longteng Fund is not what
Everyone can invest, I am giving you a chance! Finally--"
Shi Zhijian leaned forward, his eyes full of aggression: "If you insist on me telling you how I feel at this moment, what I feel is - shame on your mother!"
