After receiving the promise from the Minister of Investment, Chen Chen finally "changed his mind" and continued to stay in Windhoek for the time being.
Soon, it was late at night on the 28th of December.
"Boss, I just contacted them. The Namibian officials still haven't caught the culprit!" In the room, Qian Wenhuan put down the phone and said angrily, "What a bunch of trash!"
On the sofa, Chen Chen was playing with his phone and did not even look up. "Don't be so angry. There's a reason why they can't find the culprit."
"Huh?" Qian Wenhuan turned around blankly. "What reason?"
Chen Chen smiled and did not explain.
However, at this moment, Chen Chen's phone suddenly rang. Chen Chen picked up the phone and Cheng Cao's voice suddenly came through. "Boss, the car is ready."
"Got it," Chen Chen replied.
Qian Wenhuan was taken aback. He suddenly remembered that he had not seen Cheng Cao all day today. In addition to Cheng Cao, several bodyguards had also disappeared for the whole day...
"Wenhuan, I'm giving you two choices now."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Chen suddenly raised his head and his expression became solemn.
"Boss, what do you think..."
Qian Wenhuan's heart tightened. He seemed to have thought of something.
"In a while, I'll take you to a place. There, you'll come into contact with the other side of the company."
Chen Chen lowered his voice. "Once you see that, you must make a choice — choose to join 'us' or refuse to join.
"If you choose to join, your personal freedom may be subject to certain restrictions. For example, you can no longer resign at will, can't speak freely about the company's secrets, and so on...
"Of course, you can also choose to refuse, but after refusing, I'll transfer you back to Switzerland."
Chen Chen continued to explain, "I'll arrange for you to be Wynn's deputy. After Wynn retires, you'll be the new general manager to make up for my previous promise. At the same time, you'll be free to come and go, you can resign and leave at any time."
"I..." Qian Wenhuan opened his mouth.
"Don't rush to answer."
Chen Chen said sternly, "Think about your wife and child. When you come into contact with the other side of the company, you'll no longer have a chance to quit! If you want to quit at that time, I'll buy you an insurance policy worth tens of millions to ensure that your wife and child will have nothing to worry about for the rest of their lives! "
Qian Wenhuan suddenly fell silent.
"You have one minute to consider." Chen Chen pointed at the mechanical watch on his left wrist.
"Boss, I've made up my mind."
However, to Chen Chen's surprise, Qian Wenhuan said directly, "I've had a hunch for a long time. I've sensed that the company was unusual. After all, how many companies would come to Africa to build a nuclear power plant?"
Qian Wenhuan bitterly smiled and continued, "Furthermore, I can already tell that you're lacking in manpower. So I want to take a gamble. Perhaps I can advance further by following you?"
"You have so much confidence in me?" Chen Chen asked back.
Qian Wenhuan nodded seriously. "I don't know why either. Although you're a few years younger than me, I seem to see infinite possibilities in you. My intuition tells me that following you should be the right choice …"
"Very well." Chen Chen smiled. "I hope you won't regret your choice in the future."
With that, Chen Chen turned around and walked out of the room.
Qian Wenhuan was taken aback for a moment before he hurriedly caught up to her.
They walked all the way to the ground floor of the embassy. At the entrance of the embassy, Qian Wenhuan saw a bodyguard waiting for them in a Wrangler.
"Get in," Chen Chen said, then opened the door and got in first.
Qian Wenhuan turned the door on the other side and got in.
As the car started, the Wrangler immediately made its way into the narrow traffic network of Windhoek.
Things were more complicated than Qian Wenhuan had thought. About ten minutes after the two of them got into the Wrangler, the Wrangler drove into a dark alley.
Just when Qian Wenhuan was at a loss for what to do, Chen Chen directly pulled Qian Wenhuan out of the car and got into a van that had its paint peeling.
The driver was another bodyguard. Qian Wenhuan glanced at the car logo. Hmm...
As expected, it was the iconic car of Mainland China — Wuling Hongguang.
Although there were many questions in his mind, Qian Wenhuan wisely kept his mouth shut. He just lowered his head and followed closely behind Chen Chen.
After changing cars two or three times, the two of them finally left the city. Finally, the car was parked in a deserted factory in the suburbs outside the city.
"Boss." At the entrance of the factory, Cheng Cao and two bodyguards greeted them.
"Are there any casualties?" Chen Chen immediately asked when he saw Cheng Cao.
"Yes, two of our brothers were injured. One fractured his sternum and the other fractured his leg. They were sent to the hospital," Cheng Cao said, "The others are just minor injuries."
"That's good as long as they're not in life-threatening danger. Where are they?"
"They're inside, waiting for your orders. We haven't interrogated them yet."
Chen Chen nodded and walked in with Cheng Cao leading the way. Finally, Chen Chen saw two people in a dilapidated machine room in the factory.
One of them was a black man and the other was a white man. Both of them were securely tied to the chairs with ropes. The black man had a large build, almost twice the size of Chen Chen. The white man was slightly thinner, but he was still very capable.
As they walked into the room, the white man immediately raised his head and looked at them like a hawk.
"That's them."
Cheng Cao kicked an army green rifle by the door. "That's what they're using."
Chen Chen looked down at it. As expected, it was an AWP sniper rifle manufactured by British Precision International Corporation. It was one of the most famous and classic sniper rifles in the sniper world.
"Did they say where they're from?" Chen Chen asked.
"Tara's personal security. That's all they said." Cheng Cao shook his head. "They're employees of this company. They're only following orders from the company. Apart from that, they don't know anything."
After a pause, Cheng Cao asked again, "Do we need to do anything?"
"Do they have phones?" Chen Chen asked.
"Yes. To prevent their phones from having a GPS function, I put them in the interference room." With that, Cheng Cao said to the person beside him, "Lil Wang, bring me their phones."
"Okay." The bodyguard beside him immediately went out.
Chen Chen, on the other hand, walked directly to the two men, took out two cigarettes from the cigarette box on the table, and handed them to them with a smile.
The two men nodded politely at Chen Chen at the same time.
Chen Chen stuffed the two cigarettes into their mouths and lit them with a lighter. At this time, Lil Wang, who had gone out earlier, ran back again. "Boss, the phones you wanted."
Chen Chen took a look. Among the two phones, one was completely an old-fashioned phone while the other was a cheap smartphone from an inferior brand. There was no password set.
"We've checked before. There are only a few contact numbers on the phones. Apart from that, there's nothing else." Cheng Cao came up and reminded him.
"Did you call them?"
"To avoid alerting them, we didn't."
Chen Chen nodded. He directly entered the few numbers into his phone. After a while, Little X sent an OK emoticon.
"Alright, let's go." After seeing the message, Chen Chen called out to Qian Wenhuan and Cheng Cao, then turned around and left the room.
"Uh..." Lil Wang and the other bodyguards were instantly stumped. They looked at the two people in the chair, then at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.
Cheng Cao followed behind Chen Chen but did not hear any movement until he walked out of the room. Only then did he take out his gun and return to the room.
"Bang bang bang bang bang!"
A series of dull gunshots rang out in the abandoned factory...
Qian Wenhuan's body trembled violently. He followed behind Chen Chen with his head down, not daring to say a word.
"This is the other side of the company." Chen Chen suddenly sighed and asked again, "So, do you still stand by your previous choice?"
Qian Wenhuan nodded.
"Very good." Chen Chen said as he walked, "From now on, you and I are 'on the same side'. You can communicate more with Cheng Cao because you'll both be core members of the company in the future."
"Okay." Qian Wenhuan silently agreed.
