Young people are unwilling to be confined to a mediocre and routine life. They hope that there is a destined sword in the stone, a dragon that can breathe fire in the cave, a princess who needs to be rescued in the snowstorm, and they want to ride horses and travel the world as soon as they leave home.
Just like Yao Beibei and Liu Ying, when they came to a new city, they were full of endless freshness and the expectation of integrating into new circle of friends and new environment.
No matter how you look at it, this is a case of the other party being unreasonable. Although you don't have to cheer them on, you should at least lend a helping hand to give them a good chance of winning acceptance and recognition from your new circle of friends.
Although they knew there was something else going on, for example, why did the girl always use the waist drum to break Wu Lei's head? If we dig deeper, didn't she know the situation of Wu Lei's family? Could she just take the initiative to provoke him? Or, in fact, she was already unbearable, and Wu Lei might have done something more excessive.
But in the current situation, the truth of these questions is no longer important. The key is that Wu Lei has found this excuse.
Originally, this kind of thing was a ripple in the calm life. When they talked about it with their friends in Shanhai, who knew how much more topics they would have to talk about. In addition, it was the first time for Yao Beibei and Liu Ying to experience such a thing, so they were actually driven by the atmosphere and emotions of everyone at the scene, and their blood flowed faster.
Until they saw Cheng Ran standing opposite them.
They knew each other, and could even be said to be friends who had grown up together.
Liu Ying was fine, but Yao Beibei suddenly spoke up, "Is that Cheng Ran? The one with Qin Qian..."
When Qin Qian came out just now, someone said that she was the real person, so Yao Beibei and the others certainly knew the name of the famous Qin Qian.
Liu Ying said, "It's him..."
The movements of the two people had already been noticed by everyone around them. Wu Lei, who was talking slowly and leisurely with someone in front, turned around and looked up and down at Yao Beibei and Liu Ying, but did not say anything. However, both of them felt the pressure suddenly coming.
Zhang Zhong, who was the most unscrupulous in talking to Wu Lei, actually had a dark complexion, much like a black monkey. He looked over at this time and said, "Oh, do you know that kid over there?"
Liu Yingcai nodded and said, "We used to work in the same unit, his name is Cheng Ran." She originally wanted to say that Cheng Ran's father was Cheng Feiyang, the president of Fulong Company, but she was not sure whether it would be useful to introduce Cheng Ran's family background. Not only might it be useless, but people might also think that you were deliberately demonstrating or showing off. After all, Wu Lei's family was a state-controlled enterprise that was preparing for an IPO. The two of them didn't know what an IPO meant, but in China, whenever a listed company was mentioned, it was considered another level of things, which was very far away from them. And what was Cheng Ran's family? A private enterprise. If they mentioned it in front of other people's companies, it might only make them laugh and even make them look low-class.
Seeing that Liu Ying and Yao Beibei were very nervous, Shen Xihua said, "Why don't you call him over and ask him what's going on? If you don't have a good relationship with Qin Qian, then don't get involved."
In fact, both Liu and Yao had the same idea. Shen Xihua's words gave them a way out. As for how to deal with it if Cheng Ran and Qin Qian had a good relationship, Shen Xihua did not say, but in fact, both of them heard the implied meaning.
In fact, there was no need for Liu Ying and Yao Beibei to call him. After being sent out by Qin Qian, Cheng Ran walked towards the entrance of the lobby where their lounge was located. Naturally, he saw Yao Beibei and Liu Ying, one wearing shorts and a T-shirt, and the other wearing a black long skirt with white dots. They waved at him.
Cheng Ran just remembered that the performance that Yao Liu and the others were going to watch was right here.
No matter how you look at it, it was still a bit of a surprise to run into an acquaintance, but the expressions on their faces didn't seem to be the surprise and excitement of a chance encounter, but rather worry.
Cheng Ran was just feeling strange when he noticed that most of the men and women around the two men were looking at him with scrutiny. It should be that Yao Liu and the others were trying to expand their circle of friends and integrate into the group of new friends.
Seeing Cheng Ran coming over and waving, Yao Beibei and Liu Ying greeted him, then turned to Wu Lei to introduce Cheng Ran, "Cheng Ran, this is Brother Lei."
Cheng Ran raised his brows slightly, met Wu Lei's gaze, and nodded.
In the eyes of Wu Lei and Zhao Zhong's people, Cheng Ran's attitude was no different from that of the young man who had been standing on the "opposite camp" from the very beginning, and he exuded an indescribable arrogance.
The dissatisfaction on Zhao Zhong's face was evident, and the corners of his mouth were slightly parted.
Although his father holds power in the Quality Supervision Bureau, it is said that county officials are not as good as the current management, and the Quality Supervision Bureau has great power, but in today's society, everything is centered on economic construction. Many times, his father has revealed more than once that he wants to be successful. His subordinates want to replace you, peers are watching you, and superiors are examining your position. It is far from being like Wu Lei's father Wu Liwei who controls a state-owned company with good strength and has no taboos in many things. Similarly, even in higher positions, there are also constraints, and the reason is the same.
Therefore, Zhao Zhong may not necessarily want to firmly maintain the alliance between the two families. If Wu Lei's father can move up smoothly, it means he has money and connections, and Zhao Zhong's father may not be able to pave a path for him that is no weaker than his own. But if there is the strong backing of Wu Lei's family, then the descendants of the two families, Zhao Zhong and Wu Lei, will be able to move forward together in the future, whether it is the government line, enterprises and institutions line, or the shopping mall, they will be able to develop in multiple fields and support each other.
Therefore, in Zhao Zhong's opinion, there are not many people who are qualified to put on airs with Wu Lei. The friend in front of him who has roots in a small city like Shanhai with Liu Ying and Yao Beibei is definitely not one of them.
A newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger because it does not know the danger of feeding a tiger.
Wu Lei seemed to have the same idea. He smiled, his hands hanging casually, and looked at Cheng Ran from head to toe without disguising, "What is your relationship with Qin Qian?... Why did she send you out?"
Cheng Ran said, "A classmate from the same school."
Wu Lei laughed, "Are you on good terms?"
Cheng Ran nodded, "Not bad."
Several people around Wu Lei looked at Cheng Ran with strange eyes, while Wu Lei glanced at Yao Beibei and Liu Ying.
"Let's talk to him..." Liu Ying said to smooth things over.
Wu Lei didn't even look at Liu Ying and didn't comment.
Yao Beibei and Liu Ying were extremely embarrassed and pulled Cheng Ran aside to ask why Cheng Ran came here today. Yao Beibei couldn't wait to whisper, "Cheng Ran, you saw Wu Lei wearing a hat, right? That was Qin Qian who hit him. He came here to cause trouble for Qin Qian today. And we also met Wu Lei's father. His father is the president of a very famous company. He was invited here as the guest of honor today. Your classmate Qin Qian must be in big trouble!"
Cheng Ran looked at the two of them for a moment and said, "So you came here with them to look for Qin Qian?"
Cheng Ran thought that he had not expected that Qin Qian would do such a thing, but it was not surprising that she would do such a thing. Qin Qian was not a good girl and was strong-willed at heart.
"How would we know such a thing would happen? Originally, a friend of ours had the tickets and asked us to come here, but we ran into this person!" Liu Ying frowned, pulled Cheng Ran's sleeve, and whispered in his ear like when they were little, "... If Wu Lei looks for Qin Qian, maybe the two families will end up arguing with each other, so don't get involved. I'm afraid that if you get angry, they will both make trouble for you in the end."
She naturally thought of the incident at the Shanhai Music Festival when Cheng Ran helped Teacher Qin to confront Zhao Le. It was so powerful and overwhelming, and it also allowed them to see another side of Cheng Ran. However, it cannot be ruled out that it happened under specific circumstances and at a specific time, and Cheng Ran and the others had each other's pain points at the time, which cannot be repeated. Behind Cheng Ran at that time stood the now well-known Qin Xizhen, and her traditional music master Qin Keguang, who had been famous for a long time and whose identity was revealed, shocking everyone.
But now, Cheng Ran has nothing behind him.
Cheng Ran nodded, "I see, this is their private matter."
"I'm glad you understand! I'm just worried that you'll be confused and get yourself into trouble!" Yao Beibei said.
Cheng Ran smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern."
Yao Beibei looked a little embarrassed, "I don't care about you. It's best to avoid collisions between two parties, otherwise you'll be sandwiched in the middle and you won't know how to get crushed."
"Hurry up and go in and cheer up your cousin!" Liu Ying said, "Anyway, I'll definitely remember what I told you before."
Cheng Ran nodded, said goodbye to the two of them, turned and walked into the main hall.
…
Cheng Ran sat in his seat, thought for a while, took out his cell phone and called Zhao Qing, asking him to come to the Art Palace, but not to rush, as he was watching a performance and it would be enough for him to come after the performance.
After making the arrangements, Cheng Ran put all these things behind him. He might as well make the best of it. Although he was almost half-forced by Gao Shaoning to come here today, he was used to taking things as they come. Besides, it seemed pretty good to be able to watch such a dance drama in the old Jincheng Art Palace.
The performance began soon. Young girls dressed in Miao costumes sang and danced lightly against the backdrop of a mountain stage, performing various life scenes such as embroidery, sewing, and picking mulberry leaves. The male dancers performed activities such as carrying water, farming, and wrestling.
When night falls, there is another romantic courtship between a man and a woman. Qin Qian, the main dancer, is dressed in white. She is the heroine of the story and is easy to recognize. In the small mountain village at night, the man and woman are surrounded by people and finally hold hands, showing a carefree picture of a peaceful mountain village.
Then the atmosphere suddenly changed, invaders attacked, the mountain village was massacred, and the people who used to live a peaceful life were forced to take up arms and rise up in resistance, presenting a scene of rebirth in blood and fire.
After several scenes, Cheng Ran recognized that Gao Shaoning played the role of a young Miao sister in green clothes. Her dance was graceful and there was a duet with a mischievous boy in a stage play, in which they played and interacted with each other to playful and cheerful music. Some of her exaggerated performances and expressions elicited bursts of knowing laughter from the audience from time to time.
The whole stage play was divided into several stages. It was almost six o'clock when I finished watching it, but the on-site experience was still very good. Although the lighting effects of this era were not as cool as those of later generations, this simple technology and the dedicated performance of the dancers in the entire stage play still won applause from the audience. Some people even wiped their tears with their hands when the plot was difficult.
After the performance ended and Cheng Ran left the auditorium, he saw Zhao Qing and a Fulong driver on the corridor of the lounge. The driver parked the car in a nearby shopping mall. Cheng Ran asked them to wait for a while and then went backstage, but did not see Wu Lei.
I think maybe the other party wasn't really that boring. They might have had some resentment at first, but seeing the success of the performance, this group of people probably lost interest in causing trouble and maybe they just left and went to party somewhere else.
Cheng Ran wondered if he should go back with Zhao Qing. But he thought it would not be a good idea to leave Gao Shaoning alone. At least the performance today was good. He accidentally saw a good performance, and it was all thanks to Gao Shaoning. At least it was dinner time, so he thought about taking her to eat something and then sending her to the car. That would be enough for today.
When I went backstage, I saw Gao Shaoning with two braids and a thin performance costume that showed off her figure. She smiled and said to Cheng Ran, "Am I dancing well? Am I dancing well..."
As she spoke, she twisted her butt, which is a classic move on stage. When playing with the Miao boy, Gao Shaoning twisted her butt and pushed the person who deliberately approached her to roll and crawl, which earned a lot of laughter.
Gao Shaoning was still in high spirits from his successful performance, so he couldn't help but show off in front of Cheng Ran.
Just looking at her buttocks that were sticking out and making her thin blue silk pants rounder and constantly moving towards me, I felt it was inappropriate not to look at them.
Cheng Ran looked around and didn't see Qin Qian, but after a while there was some commotion backstage. Someone came over from the southeast side, and then everyone backstage burst into an uproar.
"That Wu Lei came to see Qin Qian again... Qin Qian went to the back door, and Liu Yong followed her out. He started arguing with them, and ended up getting beaten up by them!"
"Just now I told Qin Qian to leave through the front door and ignore them, but Qin Qian was worried that there would be more performances later and the other party would follow her and linger!"
…
The news spread inside, but the expressions of the people at the scene were different. Some were indignant, some were hesitant, some were just bystanders, and some probably knew the origins of Wu Lei's group, so although they were touched, they did not make any big moves. Some people like Gao Shaoning had already rushed to the back door.
On the way, Gao Shaoning probably still felt that Cheng Ran didn't understand the whole story, so he said, "Last time we were performing at the troupe, he came and said that he had stopped her at the school gate before, and last time he blocked her in the prop room. Qin Qian couldn't bear it anymore and picked up the things in her hand to hit him. He hit his head and bled. In my opinion, he deserved it!"
Cheng Ran followed the crowd backstage to Exit 2, which was a passage for transporting stage props and backstage personnel. There were some face-saving trees planted around it, and the fight took place next to the trees near the wall.
Qin Qian and a girl were in the outer circle. The man named Liu Yong was surrounded by Wu Lei, Zhao Zhong and other young men, who kicked and beat him. Liu Yong could only protect his head with his hands and hold on with great difficulty. The red mud ground under the tree was covered with dust.
There were some people around, some were accusing or persuading from afar, but no one dared to move forward.
Qin Qian and a girl were pulling, trying to stop them from beating Liu Yong, but they were unable to pull Wu Lei and the group of tall men apart. They were even pushed away by Zhao Zhong and several other young men with their shoulders, some of whom seemed to be doing it on purpose.
Then there were the surprised shouts of Qin Qian and the girl, and Wu Lei and his gang verbally abused and beat Liu Yong.
"Helping a woman to show her ability?"
"How much older is mom than you!?"
At times like this, the purpose is mostly to vent anger and establish authority, so the abusive words are of course simple, rough and direct.
Cheng Ran saw that Liu Ying, Yao Beibei and Shen Xihua were standing nearby. Some of them tried to persuade or pull Qin Qian who was still rushing towards the crowd.
Yao Beibei and Liu Ying naturally also saw Cheng Ran following to Gate No. 2, and they kept winking at him.
After Gao Shaoning and a group of people from the troupe came out, Cheng Ran's cousin immediately rushed forward, cursing angrily. A group of people around her were instigated by her, and seeing their friends being humiliated in this way, they were also filled with righteous indignation. However, only one young man from Wu Lei's side moved over, took out a kitchen knife, and pointed it at them, "This has nothing to do with you, who dares to step forward!"
The air seemed to be frozen, and the pressure from the rusty kitchen knife hanging high in the air made everyone on Gao Shaoning's side motionless. Then they saw the man named Liu Yong being pulled up and kicked to the ground again, like a puppet with broken strings. Qin Qian's screams and the fear in her eyes.
Gao Shaoning's troupe actually has more people than Wu Lei's seven people, but many of Wu Lei's seven people are older and bigger than Gao Shaoning's people, and these people must have fought frequently, so their momentum completely overwhelms the people in the dance troupe.
But at this moment, a group of organizers came out from Gate No. 2.
It is no surprise that the commotion alarmed the theater. Not only did Zhang Rong, the instructor of Gao Shaoning's group, come out, but they also met a vice president of the Art Palace named Xu Xuguang. This vice president is mainly responsible for external liaison and has a wide range of connections. He is an active figure behind the performances of many famous domestic song and dance groups and celebrities. He is also a tough person. Today he was accompanying an important guest, and he was followed by important people from the office and the marketing department.
One of the important guests of the Art Palace's deputy general manager was the second-in-command of a certain media outlet, and the other middle-aged man was Wu Lei's father, Wu Liwei.
This group of people came out from Gate No. 2 not because they learned about the emergency, but because the Art Palace was built in the 1980s. At that time, the issue of underground garages was not considered at all. Parking was generally done in nearby shopping malls and open-air parking lots. Only vehicles of internal personnel and important people would be "allowed" to enter the open space in the red-walled courtyard at the back door, where the theater and the Buick, Toyota Camry and Passat of the leaders who came today were parked. Going through Gate No. 2 backstage was a shortcut.
But I didn't expect to run into this incident head on.
Seeing the theater leader walking out with shocked and surprised expressions on his face, Yao Beibei and Liu Ying, who were with Shen Xihua and his group, looked at each other. Their first reaction was that they didn't know how serious the matter would become, and they felt as if a stone had sunk to the bottom of the sea.
Unexpectedly, although Wu Lei and his team seemed to have chosen a remote place, they still didn't understand the internal situation of the theater. As a result, the beating and intimidation of Wu Lei's people were caught by his father Wu Liwei in front of outsiders.
But Liu Ying and Yao Beibei noticed that Shen Xihua and the others around them had no strange expressions. Hu Yongzhou also saw their expressions and asked, "Are you afraid that Wu Lei will make things worse and it will not end well?"
After a pause, Hu Yongzhou said, "His father is here, so today is destined to be a small fight."
Yao Beibei and Liu Yingda found it so bizarre that they couldn't accept it. Not only did they beat up these people, but someone even pulled out a knife to threaten the members of the dance troupe. And this was just a small fight
Wu Liwei's furious voice could be heard from the other side, "Wu Lei, what are you doing!?"
Seeing Wu Lei, the father with a strong aura, shouting, the young man holding the knife shrank behind the tree and threw the knife on the muddy ground at the corner of the wall. If he was not afraid of hitting some unlucky person and causing trouble, he would have thrown it directly out of the wall and disappeared more completely. The few people who were originally surrounding Liu Yong with Wu Lei also stopped and moved away one after another.
The beaten Liu Yong had time to prop up his body. His hands were rubbed by the ground and covered with bloody scratches. Qin Qian and another person came to help him, but they couldn't stop Wu Lei from kicking him twice.
If Wu Liwei had not continued to stop him, and Wu Liwei's secretary Liu Chenjun had not come to persuade and pull him back, Wu Lei would still have refused to give in.
Yao Beibei and Liu Ying had figured out what Hu Yongzhou and his gang meant by "small fights". Even with so many people including the troupe's leaders and Wu Lei's father present, Wu Lei seemed fearless.
Everyone can feel that Wu Lei is too "dirty" and no one wants to be the one who offends him.
Qin Qian, Gao Shaoning and others helped Liu Yong over. The dance troupe's instructor Zhang Rong asked Liu Yong if he was okay, but that was all. The deputy general manager of the theater was right next to them and actually witnessed the whole process but did not say a word. Zhang Rong also knew that she could not speak up at this time.
The group of boys next to Wu Lei called him Uncle Wu a few times, but their words were not as powerful as they were at the beginning. They were still a little nervous, but Wu Lei didn't seem to care. Wu Liwei stared at Wu Lei and scolded him in a deep voice, "I told you not to cause trouble for me, what are you doing now?"
Wu Lei pointed at his head, looked at Qin Qian and Liu Yong and said, "They broke my head last time, and they didn't allow me to come here today to ask for an explanation!"
Wu Liwei frowned, "You deserve it! No matter what happened, what did you do in the troupe? Come here and apologize to your Uncle Xu! Apologize to him!"
Wu Lei came over reluctantly and said to the deputy general manager of the theater, "Uncle Xu, I'm sorry, please be magnanimous. I was ignorant about what happened today." But in front of everyone in the dance troupe, he just glanced at Qin Qian and Liu Yong nonchalantly.
Xu Xuguang said, "The theater cannot be so chaotic as you are. It's just that you are not a member of the troupe, otherwise you will definitely be dealt with seriously."
Wu Liwei said, "If you do this again next time, Uncle Xu will call the police to arrest you! Just stay in the police station for a while, I won't bail you out!"
Wu Lei nodded repeatedly, and his expression didn't show any sign of admitting his fault.
Xu Xuguang did not say anything. He turned to Zhang Rong and said, "Is this a member of your group? Take him down to disinfect him and see how to deal with him. Don't let this happen again in the future."
The people in the courtyard were very proud. At this dusk, everyone felt that there was something wrong with what he said, but no one dared to say anything.
The Art Palace is the Southwest Art Palace, and people like Xu Xuguang are considered celebrities in cultural activities. In the palace, he can be said to have the final say, and many domestic art groups and the top people in the province often drink and chat with him at the same table.
For ordinary dance troupes, it is not known how lucky they are to have a place to perform here. From top to bottom, despite the strict rules of the palace, everyone must abide by them. Being able to perform here is something that many people envy, and such opportunities and chances that second- and third-tier dancers and performers can dream of can be decided by Xu Xuguang. The fact that Jung Chang's troupe can have such an opportunity to perform on stage is the result of Jung Chang's long-term relationship building, but all of this is only counted after Xu Xuguang's approval.
So it is clear now that it was Wu Lei who entered the theater to cause trouble and beat up the people from the Chang Jung Dance Company, but what Xu Xuguang meant was that the matter should end here, and at the same time he wanted Chang Jung to pay attention to her people, which was problematic in itself.
But no one dared to question this statement and the result.
But a voice sounded at an inappropriate time. Qin Qian looked at Xu Xuguang and said, "They were the ones who started the fight. They were the ones who bullied the few. It seems inappropriate to say this to us."
"Qin Qian! Stop talking." Zhang Rong pulled Qin Qian's sleeve and then looked at Xu Xuguang. "Mr. Xu, this incident was definitely not instigated by our people. They are all good kids. But I can understand that maybe the conflict started with words..."
Xu Xuguang frowned as he looked at Qin Qian who was staring at him, and then waved his hand to interrupt Zhang Rong, "I don't care what's going on between you two. In the future, if you want to solve this kind of thing, you should solve it outside the palace, or... don't bring these things in here. Do you understand?"
Zhang Rong was so angry that she almost lost control of herself. Xu Xuguang's last words clearly had a double meaning. If they were not to bring these things in, it meant that the Art Palace might no longer give them a place. The threat was still very strong.
Zhang Rong knew that the people in front of Xu Xuguang were not simple, not to mention that they also involved Wu Liwei's son. Sometimes, even if she was right, there was actually no place to talk.
He sighed and said no more.
Everyone in the dance troupe, including Jung Chang, could feel the extreme frustration.
Gao Shaoning couldn't stand it any longer. She saw Liu Yong, who was usually kind-hearted in the dance troupe, pursing his lips and saying nothing while being wronged. The usually dignified Zhang Rong couldn't say a word. She didn't know why she rushed to Wu Liwei and said, "Uncle! There are many things about your son that you don't know. He used to harass our Qin Qian frequently. Last time, Qin Qian hit him on the head, and he couldn't stand it anymore. As a result, he not only didn't stop, but became even worse. In fact, Qin Qian came out just now because he said that if she didn't come out to meet alone, he would come and ruin the performance at the Song and Dance Theater in a few days. Our friends followed him because they were afraid of what he would do, and they beat him up like this before they could say a few words... Uncle, Wu Lei is a tyrant outside. I think you should know about this situation."
Everyone looked at Gao Shaoning in astonishment.
Everyone on Wu Lei's side was stunned for a moment, and Wu Lei had already started to curse, "Little bitch!..."
Wu Liwei glared at Wu Lei, then looked at Gao Shaoning in the silence around him, then looked at Qin Qian, and then said, "So, it was she who broke my son's head last time?"
Gao Shaoning was stunned. He didn't expect the other party to say this.
Wu Liwei took off Wu Lei's hat with his backhand, revealing the Band-Aid on his flat head, and looked at Qin Qian, "Last time you hit his head like this, did you also notify your parents so that we can deal with this matter? And see how to compensate him?"
Seeing Gao Shaoning stand up, Qin Qian did not back down and responded, "What if he seriously interferes with my life? Can I sue him for harassment?"
The people around were breathing faster because of the atmosphere.
"You are welcome to sue!"
Wu Liwei laughed dumbly, "My company's legal team is just here to eat dry food? You can try to sue me to see if you can succeed. Otherwise, what you say is the truth. Tell me what my son did to you. Show me the evidence. But you did hit him in the head and made a cut, right?"
Even though she was mentally prepared, Qin Qian's eyes still turned red at this time. She didn't like to argue with others, because once there was an argument, sharp words would hurt others and herself. However, after experiencing family changes and working at Tianxing Dojo, she was no longer as helpless and fragile as before, so the tear never fell.
She sniffed and took a deep breath, "I can pay for the medical expenses."
Wu Liwei said, "Compensation? How much will you pay? My son has been suffering from auditory and visual hallucinations recently. I'm not sure if it's a concussion or a problem with his nerve cells. The brain is the most precious thing. If there's a problem with the nerves, it's hard to say what kind of mess he will do. If it causes some permanent damage, it's a lifelong problem. I'm afraid your family will have to support him for the rest of his life!"
Qin Qian and the dance troupe were dumbfounded. Gao Shaoning actually went to Wu Liwei to complain because he saw him scolding Wu Lei at the beginning and thought that he was at least a reasonable person. He also knew that Wu Lei was a sticky person, and he knew their upcoming performances and was worried that he would continue to pester him. So he wanted to teach Wu Lei a profound lesson through his father. Who knew that this famous company president would reveal a completely different face when the veil was torn off.
This is the most outrageous way of helping one's relatives and not helping others.
Wu Lei came to ask for an explanation after getting his head smashed, while Wu Liwei was prepared to make the other party lose everything. Compared with his father, Wu Lei is nothing compared to him. This is the real ruthless character.
Cheng Ran thought for a moment, then stepped forward and said, "This is easy to identify. You can ask an authoritative hospital to examine his injuries. Everything will be based on the medical report issued. The medical report will explain what the situation is and how compensation should be paid. But if you want to tamper with the medical report and use it to blackmail, it is a felony. According to the Criminal Law, if the amount of extortion is large or it is repeated, it will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years. If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, it will be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years. If you encounter someone who wants to rely on others for life, I think he has a vicious mind and the circumstances are particularly serious. A heavy punishment of more than ten years is not excessive."
A group of people stared at Cheng Ran who walked out from the side and talked.
What is this
From the moment Wu Liwei started talking, Gao Shaoning and Qin Qian were like small boats being broken by a violent storm. At the same time, because of his social status and identity, the leaders of the troupe and the media at the scene remained silent.
If Wu Liwei was like a tiger, baring its fangs at this moment, then this young man was like a reckless squirrel, running out from the side to stroke the tiger's tail and hit the other's eyes with a pine cone.
Liu Ying, who had just woken up from a dream after being pushed by Shen Xihua, hurried forward, grabbed Cheng Ran's sleeve, and was about to pull him aside, saying, "I told you not to get involved!" Her voice was trembling.
Yao Beibei was so scared that she immediately explained to Wu Lei, Zhang Zhong and others, "My friend doesn't know the situation... He's talking nonsense."
Then she hurried up and wanted to drag Cheng Ran away with Liu Ying.
Cheng Ran pulled the sleeves of the two men with one hand and the collar with the other, which completely tore apart the master's demeanor just now. Hu Yongzhou and Shen Xihua were quite loyal and stepped forward to explain to Wu Lei's people. In short, as long as Yao Beibei and Liu Ying dragged the people away, they would come to explain to Wu Lei and Wu Liwei.
But it couldn't be towed away.
Cheng Ran got rid of Yao Beibei and Liu Ying in a helpless manner. The two of them stamped their feet in anxiety, as if they were watching Cheng Ran jumping into a fire pit.
Yao Beibei even accused loudly, "You are always like this! You are always like this!" She looked like she was about to cry.
Wu Lei and the others didn't show any fierce look towards Cheng Ran, but their expressions were probably more frightening than this, as if they were looking at a fool who got involved in this situation without knowing the right or wrong.
Wu Liwei said as if he was making the world laugh out loud, "You know a lot, you've even brought out the criminal law... Then go ahead and sue me!"
Then the skin on his nose twisted up, and the lines on his left cheekbone sunk deeper. "That's it, what the hell... Get out of here!"
The listing of Wu Liwei's Tenghua Company was actually promoted by the Bureau of Commerce. Everyone knows that the director of the Bureau of Commerce is a favorite appointed by the powerful deputy secretary of the province. In response to the call of "taking economic construction as the core, the future must be built by down-to-earth work!", the Bureau of Commerce has been promoting the implementation of one investment promotion project after another, and these projects can directly bring momentum across the country. It can be said that it is one of the most powerful departments in Chengdu now, and is almost on par with the importance of the public security department. One focuses on attracting investment, and the other focuses on escorting. It is no exaggeration to say that they are the two driving forces of the current development period.
Then there is an obvious clue that Wu Liwei actually has the support of the big boss of the provincial party committee, and he is the other party's man.
Therefore, Wu Liwei is now in a good position, with resources from all sides pushing forward the progress of his company, and he is frequently mentioned in the newspapers. Publicity, policies, funds, and other resources are all in place. There is no shortage of people in the outside world who are talking about Wu Liwei's bright future.
However, now, just when Cheng Ran stood out, people saw that one after another middle-aged men with relaxed brows squeezed out from the crowd and came to Cheng Ran's side.
Zhao Qing's appearance also attracted the attention of Wu Liwei's secretary Liu Chenjun. Although he didn't expect anyone to stand up for this young man, he was naturally a little wary, so he walked up and asked bluntly, "Who are you?"
The conversation was interrupted by the young man. Cheng Ran looked at Wu Liwei and said, "Are you Wu Liwei from Tenghua Company? How did you avoid Fulong's 'Rectification Movement'?"
"I think as a partner, it doesn't matter if the production process is a little worse now, but at least you can be an excellent partner, have good character and be trustworthy, so that a cooperative system can get better and better..."
"Now it seems that you don't have the qualifications."
Cheng Ran took out his phone and dialed a number.
"Uncle Tian... Do we have any cooperation with Fulong and Tenghua Company? The contract is about to expire... We are negotiating a new contract... That's good. I just met Mr. Wu Liwei from Tenghua Company..."
During this process, you could hear a pin drop in the courtyard.
Wu Liwei, who had originally told Cheng Ran to get lost, glanced over. Deputy General Manager Xu Xuguang and a group of people in the palace were watching this scene. On the dance troupe's side, Gao Shaoning blinked at Cheng Ran, and the dance troupe members who had already known that this was her cousin from the introduction just now, slightly smiled.
Their instructor, Jung Chang, was even more at a loss, because he had recognized that this was the "outsider" who was hanging around backstage whom he had scolded earlier!
Also finding this scene incredible were Shen Xihua, Hu Yongzhou and Ma Bin, whom Liu Ying and Yao Beibei had just met. At this moment, the person in front of them seemed no longer to be their inconspicuous friend from the small city of Shanhai who had just been introduced by Liu and Yao, but a person who seemed to be able to have a direct conversation with a figure like Wu Lei's father Wu Liwei.
During the break, Cheng Ran continued to make phone calls.
"I don't think highly of Tenghua... Yeah, that's what I mean. The person is right next to me, and he heard the conversation. Should I let him answer the phone..."
Cheng Ran took the phone away from his ear and handed it to Wu Liwei, holding it out in front of him about half a meter away, and said, "Answer the call."
Up to this point, everyone thought that this young man had gone mad, because everything he said and did was exactly like that of a delirious patient.
Although what he said was confident, it was truly unbelievable and shocking.
However, until this moment, when he asked Wu Liwei to answer the phone, the previous unreal feeling was like the smoke screen in front of him, and at this moment the billowing smoke suddenly retreated.
Coming towards us was a Tiger tank.
The texture of steel and the 88 main gun that could smash the main battle tank armor into pieces from a distance of two kilometers just rolled over.
Wu Liwei still didn't quite understand, but at the same time he felt a little wary, confused, and even vaguely afraid, all gathered in a frown, "What do you mean?"
Zhao Qing, who was standing next to Cheng Ran, laughed in silence, looking very happy. "Don't you know what I mean? How much money did you make from Fulong's orders last year? It looked good financially, right? It was several hundred million! So you, Wu Liwei, are doing so well, wanting to adjust the industrial structure, shouting everywhere that you want to go public, and begging the government for resources. Why don't you go to heaven?"
"Tenghua is out of luck!"
"You're finished! Do you know that?!"
Happy New Year, I wish you all a prosperous New Year~
