"Xu Yong?"
"Yes, that's him. He's one of the founders of Baidu, but he resigned at the end of last year."
Li Dong thought for a moment and vaguely remembered that there seemed to be such a person.
"Where is he now?"
Gu Honglou said helplessly, "I don't know. Xu Yong disappeared after he resigned from Baidu. Some say he went to the United States, while others say he's still in Beijing. There are many rumors, but I don't know the details yet. "
Li Dong frowned. How could he find Xu Yong?
Not to mention the United States, even if Xu Yong was still in Beijing, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Gu Honglou was helpless. He was a middleman, not a detective.
However, Gu Honglou still suggested, "If it's possible, Director Li, you can check with the police or the immigration department. You can also find a private detective."
"I can buy the shares if I find Xu Yong?" Li Dong asked again.
Of course, he could find someone. If he wanted to find someone, especially someone famous, he would most likely be found if he was willing to spend money.
However, if he spent money to find the person, and the person refused to sell the shares, he would suffer a great loss.
"I can't guarantee that."
Gu Honglou quickly clarified. If he could buy the shares if he found Xu Yong, he would not give up on Li Dong's business.
It was precisely because he had no confidence in Li Dong's business that Gu Honglou gave up on looking for Xu Yong.
After all, he had to spend money and favors to find Xu Yong. If the business failed, he would have to pay for it.
Although the hope was slim, Gu Honglou still comforted him, "It's still possible. I heard that he sold some of his shares before he resigned, and some after."
Li Dong pondered. No matter what, he had to give it a try.
He could not give up before meeting Xu Yong, right? If that happened, all his preparations would be wasted.
Moreover, since Xu Yong was willing to sell his shares, he might sell them if the price was right.
After chatting with Gu Honglou for a while, Li Dong hung up.
After hanging up, Li Dong fell into deep thought. How could he find Xu Yong?
He was clueless in Beijing and did not know anyone who could help him. Using connections also required time, and what he lacked now was time.
After thinking for a while, Li Dong finally decided to find a private detective.
You only needed to pay to deal with private investigators. Sometimes, these guys were even more efficient than the police.
However, there were many swindlers in this line of work. Li Dong did not care about swindling money. The key was wasting time.
Li Dong wanted to call Gu Honglou, the local tyrant, to introduce him to one or two shops. However, seeing that it was getting late, Li Dong was too embarrassed to continue harassing others.
…
The next day, Li Dong woke up early.
When he came out of the bedroom, Zhou Haidong and Zheng Long were exercising.
Looking at how the two of them were sweating profusely, it should have been quite some time.
Seeing Li Dong come out, Zhou Haidong quickly said, "General Manager Li, I've brought breakfast for you."
Li Dong nodded and picked up a bun to eat.
After breakfast, Li Dong looked at the time and gave Gu Honglou a call to ask about private investigators.
Since it was a favor, Gu Honglou did not argue and directly recommended two more reliable detective companies to Li Dong.
After tidying up, Li Dong left the room with Zhou Haidong and Zheng Long.
Coincidentally, when he went downstairs, Li Dong met Hu Yue in the hall.
Hu Yue was talking to a mature woman in her thirties. Seeing Li Dong, Hu Yue nodded and smiled at Li Dong without saying a word.
Li Dong knew that the mature woman should be Hu Yue's boss, so he did not exchange pleasantries. He responded with a smile and walked out.
After Li Dong and the others left the hall, the mature woman asked, "Do you know each other?"
Hu Yue nodded and said with a stiff expression, "Junior high school classmates."
But in her heart, she thought, Classmates my ass!
Last night, she had specifically called several junior high school classmates who were still in contact with her, but none of them had heard of Li Dong.
If one or two don't remember, it's fine, but it's impossible for everyone to not remember.
Now, Hu Yue is completely sure that Li Dong is a fake, not their classmate at all.
As for why Li Dong lied to Lin Yang, Hu Yue hasn't sorted out her thoughts for the time being, but she must remind Lin Yang.
After all, there must be a purpose for him to be so courteous.
Lin Yang is just a part-time worker. Looking at Li Dong's appearance, it doesn't look like he is cheating money, so it can only be cheating sex.
Thinking of this, Hu Yue shuddered a little. Li Dong looks quite handsome, but she didn't expect him to have this kind of taste.
The mature woman didn't care about the change in Hu Yue's expression. Instead, she said thoughtfully: "Your classmate is not simple. In the future, try to be good friends with him."
Hu Yue looked puzzled.
Others may not know how much her aunt or aunt's net worth is, but she vaguely knows it.
She knows that Li Dong is rich, but it's not enough for her boss to pay attention to him, right?
The mature woman saw Hu Yue's doubts, but she didn't explain.
These days, it's not easy to bring a bodyguard when you go out. If you don't have a net worth of more than 10 million yuan, it's embarrassing to bring one.
Li Dong doesn't look old, and he doesn't have the temperament of a rich second generation. So, it's self-evident.
Others may not be able to see it, but she is also a businessman, and her business is not small. There are some things that she naturally understands better than Hu Yue.
… …
Gu Honglou provided Li Dong with two detective companies. One is called Baishi, and the other is called Xinhong.
The two companies are not in the same district. One is in Chaoyang District, and the other is in Haidian District.
Li Dong first went to Chaoyang District and found the private detective company called Baishi according to the address provided by Gu Honglou.
Hearing Li Dong's request, the person in charge of Baishi said with some difficulty: "Mr. Li, the clues you provided are too little. I'm afraid the time will be extended …"
Without waiting for him to finish, Li Dong interrupted: "How long will it take?"
"At least seven days!"
Li Dong didn't answer. He just stared at him and said, "What if I add more money?"
The person in charge of Baishi smiled and said, "That depends on how much Mr. Li is willing to pay. After all, the more time is tight, the more resources we need to use."
"Thirty thousand, how long will it take?"
Under normal circumstances, it would be a few thousand to ten thousand yuan to find someone. Thirty thousand yuan is not a small amount.
"Three days!" The person in charge of Baishi replied.
Li Dong nodded and said, "Then three days. The money will be paid after we find the person."
The person in charge of Baishi didn't say anything, nor did he let Li Dong pay a deposit. As long as he found the person, he was not afraid that Li Dong wouldn't pay.
After leaving Baishi, Li Dong asked Zhou Haidong to drive to Haidian District and found another detective company called Xinhong.
The same requirements, the same price, and the other party also gave a bottom line of three days.
The reason why Li Dong looked for both companies was that he was afraid of making mistakes. There was no need to ruin the big picture to save a little money.
After busying himself with this, it was already noon.
Li Dong looked at his phone, thought about it, and said to Zhou Haidong, "Take me to Beijing University."
He didn't inform Qin Yuhan that he was coming to Beijing, but now it was not far from Beijing University. Since he came, he naturally had to see Qin Yuhan.
