Lin Chaotian's "enticement" could not cause any negative impact on Xiao Zheng. On the contrary, it would become another motivation for him to work hard.
In the past, he and Lin Huayin would deliberately avoid Lin Chaotian's existence. But now, Lin Chaotian had taken the initiative to stand in front of him, blocking his way. And he told Xiao Zheng bluntly: If you refuse, you will have nothing!
Even if Xiao Zheng was not afraid of losing what Lin Chaotian said, he was a man. He was a man, a man with blood, a man who refused to admit defeat. How could he let others look down on him? Especially when it came to his father-in-law?
He did not disclose the meeting with Lin Chaotian to Lin Huayin. Instead, he let it rot in his stomach and slowly digest it. Then he invested in the layout of the Internet. He firmly believed that with Lin Chaotian's identity and status, he would not set a trap for him in this kind of matter. Of course, he made a big fuss in the Yan family, in a way, it was also a declaration to the outside world: I even dare to fight Yan Shichang! Whoever is not afraid of death wants to play, I will play with you to the end!
Knock, knock, knock.
There was a hurried knock on the door. Xiao Zheng, who was buried in a document, looked up and said, "Please come in."
Creak.
Shen Han pushed the door open, her face full of anxiety.
"Mr. Xiao, something big happened!" Shen Han said nervously. She was panting.
"Don't worry. Take your time. "Xiao Zheng got up and poured a glass of water for Shen Han. "What's wrong?"
Shen Han gulped down half a glass of cold water and said breathlessly, "One of our factories in Africa was attacked by terrorists. It happened in the early hours of the local time. Several security guards were injured. The warehouse was completely destroyed. We lost nearly ten million US dollars! "
Xiao Zheng heard this and his heart suddenly jumped.
Then, while comforting Shen Han, he asked, "Have you gotten the exact number of casualties?"
"It's out," Shen Han said quickly. "There are no casualties yet, but several local security guards were injured. The employees we sent over were resting in the dormitory. Nothing went wrong. "
Xiao Zheng frowned. "Have you contacted the local police?"
"En. Contact was made. Even the local troops have been mobilized, "Shen Han explained. "But the explanation given by the authorities makes me feel helpless."
"What did he say?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"We're tracking it down. Moreover, those terrorists are from a non-partisan international organization. They said that they will do their best to investigate, but they can't guarantee that they will give us a satisfactory result. "Shen Han gnashed her teeth. "This is clearly shirking responsibility!"
Xiao Zheng took a sip of tea and said, "You and Ouyang will be in charge of this matter. The most important thing now was to urgently transfer the local staff back. One side is repeating the same mistakes. "
"What about the business?" Shen Han asked. "We spent a lot of money to build this product line. Are we going to give up just like that? "
"Is money more important or your life more important?" Xiao Zheng frowned.
"We can hire local staff," Shen Han explained.
She had single-handedly built this product line. She couldn't bear to give up just like that.
"Old Shen. I have to scold you this time. "Xiao Zheng took a sip of tea and pursed his lips. "Our staff are human beings. Are the lives of the local people worthless? This is a critical time. Suspend all business. When the situation stabilizes, we can spend more money to build momentum. "
Shen Han was ashamed when she heard that.
Her long career had made her rational to the point that it was almost cold. When something went wrong, the first thing she thought of was to remedy it. All other factors had to give way to profit. Only in this way could she be worthy of Xiao Zheng's trust and CEO Lin's support.
But she had neglected the most fundamental problem.
Xiao Zheng was not a money-minded businessman. Lin Huayin was not an executioner who did not care about the lives of her employees. In the eyes of this couple, the safety of their employees was the first priority. The second priority was to make money.
This was also why Xin Ao was so cohesive. Why the corporate culture was so deeply rooted.
Because in Xin Ao, the employees felt at home.
Ding ding.
Xiao Zheng's phone rang at the wrong time. He gave Shen Han a few words. He glanced at the caller ID. It was Jiang Qing, whom he had not seen for a long time.
"Hello." Xiao Zheng answered the phone absentmindedly and waved for Shen Han to go out.
"Something happened." Jiang Qing's calm voice came from the other side of the phone.
A female general was indeed a female general. She was much more mentally strong than Shen Han.
"What's the matter?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"There's a large-scale riot in the war zone. Nearly twenty companies were attacked. Nearly three hundred people were injured. Even the local peacekeepers suffered heavy losses. Nearly fifty people sacrificed — "Jiang Qing said regretfully. "Three of them were Hua Xia peacekeepers."
"Motherf * cker!" Xiao Zheng suddenly cursed. "Are these outlaws crazy?!"
"If you have time now, come to the Long Formation. The higher-ups of the military are very concerned about this matter. They have also expressed that they will take action. They are formulating a specific action plan. You are an expert in this area. You can provide some professional advice, "Jiang Qing said.
"I'll be there as soon as I can." Xiao Zheng hung up the phone and rushed to the Long Formation with his coat.
The severity of this incident far exceeded Xiao Zheng's expectations. Originally, Xiao Zheng thought that this was just a small-scale terrorist attack. For example, the attack on the Xin Ao factory was just bad luck. But he did not expect that dozens of companies would be attacked by terrorists. Even the local peacekeepers had lost nearly fifty people!
This was no longer a simple terrorist incident. It was a large-scale riot that shocked the world!
Xiao Zheng arrived at the Long Formation. As soon as he got out of the car, Jiang Qing, who was in a handsome military uniform, came to greet him.
"General Qi is in a meeting in the conference room. Judging from the time, the meeting should be over soon, "Jiang Qing explained.
Xiao Zheng nodded and glanced at the military cars in the yard. Most of them were not license plates of the Long Formation. They were either from the Beijing military or from other places. It seemed that most of the senior military officials had gathered for this meeting.
Xiao Zheng suddenly asked in a deep voice, "Do the higher-ups want us to fight?"
"Yes. We have to fight. "Jiang Qing gritted his teeth. "This group of outlaws actually opened fire when they encountered our regular army. They obviously don't take us seriously. We can't take this lying down. "
With that, Jiang Qing glanced at Xiao Zheng. "I heard from General Qi this morning that he's a good candidate. Hua Xia is not the only one who thinks so. The United States is also infuriated. Once they reach an agreement, they will go to war in the form of an international alliance. "
"Have you figured out the background of those terrorists?" Xiao Zheng was not surprised. The United States had always claimed to maintain world peace. They were also the leaders of counter-terrorism. This time, such a big mess had happened. If they didn't say anything, wouldn't they be slapping themselves in the face?
"We've figured it out. It's a terrorist organization that calls itself the Holy Warriors. Their actual strength is about a thousand people. And they have heavy weapons. Their main area of activity is in Africa. They are very good at fighting in the jungle. They have fought with the peacekeepers several times before. They are invincible. "Jiang Qing hesitated for a while and then said in a deep voice. "If we go to war this time, we must destroy this terrorist organization!"
