Chapter 12: The Beautiful Bodyguard (I)
"What did you just say? You want to check me? I guess I heard it wrong!"
I saw that Zhou Hu seemed to have heard the funniest joke in his life at this time, and laughed wildly: "To tell you the truth, there are many people who want to check on me." But it turned out that I was still standing here, and they were all gone without a trace. ”
The entrepreneurs around Xia Ping also laughed fearlessly.
Not to mention that Xia Ping hasn't mastered the evidence of their crime yet, even if he really does, isn't there still a big guy like Zhou Hu in front of him.
Since Zhou Hu dared to accept bribes with such fanfare, then he must have something to rely on, otherwise he would not have been able to find out about his head for so many years.
What if Xia Ping is the general manager of Huaneng's Jianghuai branch? In the final analysis, he is just a businessman.
If Xia Ping wants to exert pressure through economic means, they may be a little frightened. But if you want to use legal means, everyone is a businessman, each with his own means, why do you threaten me?
Seeing the group of people laughing wildly, Xia Ping didn't speak again. Shaking his head gently, he really couldn't argue with a bunch of fools.
Keep laughing, they won't be able to laugh after a while anyway.
They never understood what Huaneng stood for, and they still followed the old rules and regarded Huaneng as an ordinary enterprise. This is the consequence of information asymmetry, and the price to be paid is ......
"Jingle Bell ~ Jingle Bell ~"
Almost at the same time, the men's phones rang. Everyone who received the call was like a dead mother, and their faces were like ashes.
Especially Zhou Hu, his face was even more ugly, because it was his brother who called him just now. not only severed relations with him, but also personally sent the evidence of his crime to the relevant departments, and threatened to arrest him and send him to prison.
His brother's phone exploded in Zhou Hu's mind like a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
It's like falling from heaven to hell in an instant, and it's the lowest level. Zhou Hu didn't dare to accept this reality, and he still didn't understand why his brother gave up on him so decisively?
It wasn't until Zhou Hu's gaze turned to Xia Ping's body that his eyes widened as if he had suddenly woken up.
"Security, take them down. I believe that soon, the relevant departments will come and take them away. ”
After seeing their expressions when they answered the phone, Xia Ping knew that the general trend had been decided.
In fact, Xia Ping did not declare a personal vendetta, he just felt that businessmen generally had some unclean foundations. That's why the relevant departments were notified to vigorously and thoroughly investigate. If they really have a clean foundation, Xia Ping doesn't mind letting them go.
But it's a pity, looking at their current appearance, it is obvious that the bottom is dirtier than they imagined.
"Mr. Xia, Mr. Xia, I was wrong, I won't dare next time, will you spare me this time?"
At this time, Zhou Hu still had the appearance of showing off his martial arts just now, just like a dog, lying on the ground and constantly kowtowing to Xia Ping and begging for mercy.
Who would have thought that Zhou Hu, who was the second oldest man just now, and Zhou Hu, who is now wagging his tail and begging for mercy, would be the same person?
Xia Ping slowly squatted down and quietly looked at Zhou Hu who was lying on the ground.
"You have to make it clear that it's not a question of whether I forgive you or not, it's whether the judge will spare you or not. If you hadn't done anything illegal, you wouldn't have to be as embarrassed as you are now, would you?"
"Yes, yes, it's my own doing, and I want to repent. I also ask Mr. Xia to have a large number of good things to say for me in front of the judge, as long as I can reduce my sentence. I, Zhou Hu, will be one of your dogs in the future. ”
After hearing Zhou Hu's words, Xia Ping suddenly became displeased. This guy is dying to the death, and he even wants to intercede. There is no such good thing in this world.
"If you are ruthless outside the law, you don't have the luxury of expecting someone to give you extrajudicial mercy. ”
However, there are always exceptions to everything, and it is called frank and lenient. If you confess everything, it's not that your sentence can't be commuted. ”
At this moment, Xia Ping's tone suddenly changed, and Zhou Hu seemed to see hope again, his eyes sparkled and looked at Xia Ping and said, "I confess, I confess everything." ”
Xia Ping smiled and finally got to the point.
To be honest, although Zhou Hu is arrogant, his strength is still several grades lower than Xia Ping's. Even his brother is not enough for Xia Ping's grade.
For this kind of little person, Xia Ping has no need to do so much entanglement with him. Just throw it directly to Qin Keqing.
But Xia Ping really went into battle in person.
Because it wasn't Zhou Hu who interested him, but the person behind him.
"Who instructed you to target me?"
After hearing Xia Ping's question, Zhou Hu seemed to have heard something extremely terrifying, his pupils suddenly shrank, and his body trembled slightly uncontrollably.
"Nobody instructed me, really, really no one instructed me. ”
Zhou Hu's head shook like a rattle, and repeatedly emphasized that no one instructed him. As everyone knows, the more he does this, the more he proves that he has a ghost in his heart.
"Don't pretend, I've looked into you. ”
Xia Ping stretched out his hand to take the information that Qin Keqing had already prepared, and read to it: "I have investigated you, you have an elder brother who works in the Ministry of Commerce, but it is obviously impossible for him to let you target me, unless he is crazy." ”
"It's true that you're greedy for money, but you don't do risky things. Huaneng is not something you can provoke, you should know it very well in your heart. But you did it anyway, proving that you have what you think is a very reliable backing on you. And if you look like you're not afraid of your crimes, it must be that person covering them up for you. ”
"I can't say, I really can't say it. Mr. Xia, you better arrest me quickly. ”
Although Zhou Hu had already admitted the existence of that person, the strange thing was that he still gritted his teeth and refused to tell the details of that person.
Zhou Hu, who didn't want to go to prison just now, now asked Xia Ping to arrest him.
"Take him away. ”
Knowing that he couldn't ask anything about it, Xia Ping had no choice but to hand over Zhou Hu to the relevant departments, hoping that they could ask the details of that person.
Fortunately, Xia Ping was not without gain this time, at least he knew that someone was targeting him, and that person's identity was not low, and he was ruthless, otherwise Zhou Hu would not dare to say it. In this way, at least you can prepare in advance.
After experiencing Zhou Hu's incident, the next thing is much easier.
Whether it is within the company or the CEOs of other cooperative enterprises, no one dares to have any objections to Xia Ping's succession.
No matter what Xia Ping decides, they all raise their hands in favor, and they have become Xia Ping's most solid supporters.
Whether it is sincere or false, at least since then, Xia Ping has truly become the general manager of the Jianghuai branch of Huaneng Group.
After the meeting, Xia Ping dragged his somewhat tired body back to his office, with only Qin Keqing and Sun Xiao beside him.
"Whew~ It's finally comfortable. ”
Anyway, there were no outsiders, Xia Ping was no longer restrained, and threw himself directly on the sofa after entering the door.
"Xia Ping, are you too casual like this, now you are the general manager of Huaneng Branch, representing the face of Huaneng. ”
When no one is around, Qin Keqing is still used to calling Xia Ping's name. Looking at Xia Ping's lazy appearance, Qin Keqing suddenly felt that he had a long way to go.
"What does it matter, it's just the three of us on the entire floor anyway, so I can do whatever I want. ”
Xia Ping turned over, changed into a comfortable position, opened his hands, looked back at Sun Xiao and smiled: "Xiaoxiao, come and sleep with me, this is also the duty of the assistant?"
"Really, really?"
After hearing Xia Ping's words, Sun Xiao immediately blushed.
I used to hear that secretaries had an inexplicable relationship with their bosses, but I didn't believe it at the time, but I didn't expect this to happen to me.
Theoretically, Sun Xiao is very disgusted with this relationship. If she were to be another boss, even if she was the general manager of Huaneng, she would leave without looking back.
However, if it is Xia Ping, then ......
Sun Xiaoxin pinched the corners of his clothes, experienced an extremely violent struggle in his heart, and raised his right foot slightly, and there was really a tendency to move towards Xia Ping.
However, before Sun Xiao could act, she was pulled behind by Qin Keqing.
I saw Qin Keqing glance at Xia Ping with a frosty face, and then turned his head to Sun Xiao and said, "Don't listen to his nonsense, there are no messy duties in Huaneng." You just have to do your job. ”
In an instant, Sun Xiao's face became even redder. Looking from Xia Ping's direction, Sun Xiaohong's fluttering face looked like a ripe apple.
"Haha, just kidding, by the way, to lighten up the atmosphere. ”
Xia Ping didn't know that Sun Xiao was really serious, even if Sun Xiao came over, Xia Ping wouldn't do anything to her.
This is Xia Ping's respect for those close to him.
Qin Keqing glanced at Xia Ping, not bothering to pay attention to Xia Ping's out-of-the-box character. He looked down at the schedule and said, "Get ready, there's going to be a press conference soon." ”
"I won't go to the press conference, you can just take Xiaoxiao to attend. ”
Xia Ping waved his hand and said, "I still want to live an ordinary life for two more years, try not to let my photos leak." Also, I might have to go home soon, which of you is with me?"
"It's a beautiful idea!"
Qin Keqing glanced at Xia Ping unceremoniously and said, "It's easy for you to be the shopkeeper, who will handle the affairs in the company?" After all, Xiaoxiao has just come to the company for a while, and she needs to follow me for a while before she can work independently. ”
After hearing Qin Keqing's words, Xia Ping was a little disappointed, and he also wanted to bring a girlfriend home to make his parents happy.
However, Xia Ping thought in a blink of an eye, maybe Tang Youyou might have time.
After seeing Xia Ping's disappointed eyes, Qin Keqing raised the corners of his mouth a little proudly, obviously guessing Xia Ping's careful thoughts.
"We can't go, but that doesn't mean you're going home alone. ”
"Who?"
"Smack!"
I saw Qin Keqing suddenly smile mysteriously, clapped his hands, and said to the door: "Come in!"
