Chapter 370 Scholar Meets Soldier
Qi Tongwei's sitting posture also relaxed subconsciously, and the conversation began to follow his rhythm.
"Mr. Congressman, this contractor did a very crude job and there are major security loopholes. I think he should be fired this time."
Unexpectedly, the other party nodded and took another sip of tea, seeming to be unconcerned.
“Then let him go, as long as you are doing this to make my business safer and smoother, and not deliberately making things difficult for him.
Then I'll listen to you. This is your territory. I just want to ask you to find a reliable contractor after you clear him out."
Qi Tongwei was stunned. What the hell? I was waiting for you to haggle and bargain for a while, but you agreed directly. Didn’t you say you came here to beg for mercy?
The Americans' way of thinking is really different from that in China. They can't beat around the bush and can only play it straight.
"Really? Didn't Mr. Chen plead for them this time?"
Qi Tongwei was a little out of control. He had planned everything well. As long as the other party made a request, he would agree reluctantly, and then make his own demands. He was unable to handle it all at once.
"Hahahaha, District Chief Qi, do you really think I came to Dong'ou for such an idiot? I came here to check out my own business.
Furthermore, I have heard the real situation reported by the employees who stayed behind before. What you did is right. I have already given you a lot of face by asking about the situation on his behalf.
Do you still want me to beg for mercy for such an unrelated person?
Then I am at a disadvantage.
But, District Chief Qi, I still hope that the construction site can resume work as soon as possible, go into production earlier, and I can get my money back one day earlier, right?
If you have chosen a new builder, please bring it to me. If you have not chosen a builder, I will also use these few days to find a replacement and start work as soon as possible. "
“Then I understand. I’ll find a replacement for you and start work as soon as possible.
Actually, Mr. Congressman, I have something else I would like to ask you for help."
Qi Tongwei finally decided to speak frankly. Although the other party looked like a Chinese, he was essentially a foreigner. It was best to be straightforward. They might need to deal with each other in the next few years, so he told him the matter directly.
"If the congressman can help find some overseas media to write articles to refute them, or we can write articles ourselves and help publish them, that would be fine."
Qi Tongwei was stopped by the congressman.
"District Chief Qi, maybe you don't understand that the land under our feet is the land we have fought for ourselves.
Elsewhere, the right to speak is within the range of US aircraft carriers.
Whether it is Hong Kong, the island provinces, or small countries, most countries do not have the courage to fight against the US military. Therefore, in these places, I can do more than you think.
I will take care of this matter. In exchange, I hope Mr. District Chief can pay more attention to my industry. At the very least, I hope it can be completed and put into production as soon as possible."
After the two shook hands, Qi Tongwei was still a little worried, but soon the other party sent news.

On the other hand, in Kowloon, Hong Kong, the office of Mirror Weekly, a well-known troll, is located in a dilapidated industrial factory in Shek Kip Mei.
On a Mercedes-Benz at the intersection, a foreigner in a suit and sunglasses was counting money for a fierce-looking gangster.
"Sang Gou, here's two hundred thousand. Go scare the people in the newspaper office on the eleventh floor of that shabby building and tell them to be careful when writing.
Then your little brother took advantage of the chaos to burn their manuscripts. If you can find out the information about their recent contact in the mainland, I will add another 200,000.
Pay attention, what the boss means is that you can smash things, burn drafts, throw paint, and even throw snakes and rats into their house.
But you can’t hit anyone or cause any death. If the police ask you, just say someone inside owes you money. Got it?”
Sang Gou, who had a scar on his face and a fierce look, sniffed hard. He was just waiting to do things for his boss and get paid for his work. Besides, this job sounded easy.
As long as no one is killed, he can just fight a few times and smash things, and there won't be any trouble afterwards. He is the leader of Liansheng Tsuen Wan and not someone that ordinary people can mess with.
After explaining everything, the Mercedes stopped at the intersection and the foreigner in the car observed the situation with a telescope.
Sang Gou brought his younger brothers and prepared various tools, mostly iron rods and the like. This time it was not a job to chop friends, but to smash things with blunt tools. They were experienced. The younger brother behind him also carried a small bottle of alcohol or gasoline.
Several of the guys were holding a fire extinguisher in one hand and paint in the other. They behaved very professionally. Each of them wore a labor protection mask and gloves.
The group quickly squeezed up to the eleventh floor. The residents on this side of Hong Kong knew at a glance that they were gangsters coming to collect debts. As long as they were not provoked, the gangsters would not interfere.
The social structure here is like this. There are more than six million people in the city, and almost half of them have direct or indirect relations with the underworld. Many people join the underworld just to make a living. Along the way, no one called the police. Everyone was indifferent and just walked by.
Sang Gou made up his mind to go to the police in the name of debt collection. Even if he was caught by the police, it would be fine as long as he admitted his mistake. In fact, many people in mainland China also do bad things in the name of economic disputes. There are blind spots in the law, and it is precisely these people who make a living by committing crimes who have the keenest sense of smell.
Sang Gou and his crew were very professional, they first used spray paint to write "pay the debt", then started plugging the keyhole with glue, and then a group of people rushed in with sticks.
There were two foreigners sitting inside, directing the editors to write articles. When the sad dogs came in, they all had surprised looks on their faces.
Sang Gou doesn't care who is inside, as long as it's not dozens of men with guns, he has to work.
"It is only natural to pay back debts!"
This sentence became their slogan, and soon expensive computers, typewriters and other equipment were smashed to pieces with iron bars.
"What are you doing! Call the police, call the police."
When Sang Gou saw that the person speaking was a foreigner, he kicked him.
"You street ghost, you have to pay your debts, do you know?"
This sentence was a secret code. When the younger brother behind heard the signal, he immediately rushed into the house to look for the manuscript, shouting that the debt should be paid back. Soon he found all the manuscripts and threw them on the ground.
The brother holding the alcohol sprayed it on the fire and quickly started it. The brother next to him holding the fire extinguisher kept an eye out for the fire.
When people from the magazine wanted to go up to put out the fire, they were kicked back. This kick was very clever, as it would not cause any injuries, but it would also make these intellectuals unable to move for a while.
