Chapter XXIV
Nietzsche famously said that when you stare into the abyss, the abyss also stares at you.
Yan Shengrong is like an assassin in the abyss, wandering on the edge of law and morality, Du Qiu needs such a person very much to be a black glove, but she can't help but prevent her from dragging herself into the water, especially now that she has just met, she doesn't know all the basic information such as family, personality, and ability, not only can she not tell whether it is friend or foe, but she can't tell which of the information revealed is true and which is false.
There was a temporary coldness in the room, and after a few minutes, Yan Shengrong leaned over and picked up the glass, took a sip of green tea, and said: "Mr. Du, if it's not like this, let's go according to the interview process of Snapdragon, you give me a probationary period, and then come up with a question, and then decide whether to cooperate or not according to my performance, how about it?"
This step-by-step method was easier for Du Qiu to accept, bowed his head slightly, and asked, "The topic you said refers to solving a certain trouble around me?"
"Yes. Yan Shengrong held the glass with both hands, with a harmless smile on his face, and said, "It can also be to cause trouble for others." ”
Solve troubles, create troubles......
This woman is a nuisance in itself......
Du Qiu complained while pondering, his eyes wandered in the living room, and suddenly saw the atlas of Cloud City that was placed on the TV cabinet last night, the booklet happened to turn to the plot near Qingyun Mountain, and the general scope of the university town was outlined with a pencil. ”
"Mr. Du's righteousness is thin and cloudy, I admire it very much. Yan Shengrong first teased, and then quoted the Internet celebrity words in the forum and said: "The topic I want, I have to finish it with tears, let's talk about it in detail, which of your friends is in trouble." ”
"This friend of mine is the executive vice president of Sanjiang University, and he was supposed to become the president next year, but the above plans to arrange a high-ranking official to serve as the president......
Du Qiu, in line with the mentality of a friend of the dead Dao and the immortal poor Dao, was ready to let the old fox Chen Zhiyang go to test Yan Shengrong's success, introduced his basic situation, and then told the gossip scandal that the president of Yuncheng University and the dean of the School of Architecture were jealous, and said: "Can you take this opportunity to let Chen Zhiyang go to Yunda to be the principal?"
Yan Shengrong obviously didn't expect Du Qiu to give her such a tricky and weird question, and after sitting on the sofa and pondering for a while, he asked, "I don't know the specific situation of these two universities, but they should be affiliated with different subordination, and under normal circumstances, they won't transfer each other's leadership, right?"
"That's right, Sanjiang University is a provincial university, and Yuncheng University is a university directly under the Ministry of Machinery Industry. ”
In this case, it is really difficult to make Chen Zhiyang the principal of Yunnan University this year. ”
Du Qiu felt that it was not a little difficult, but very difficult, and said: "If it doesn't work, forget it, I'm just talking about it casually." ”
"I said it was difficult, but I didn't say no. Yan Shengrong took a sip of green tea unhurriedly and asked, "Chen Zhiyang is Chen Dayou's father, he should be like you, he has used the platform of Snapdragon to make a lot of social relationships, do you know what they are?"
"I probably know some people, but I don't know exactly what their relationship is. ”
"Probably, let's talk about it. ”
Yan Shengrong put down the glass, took out a notepad from his bag, recorded some names and backgrounds that Du Qiu knew, and then thought about it for a few minutes, and said: "I did this topic, but I need time to verify some information, and after I am ready, Mr. Du will introduce me to Chen Zhiyang." ”
"Good. Du Qiu knew that this matter was extremely difficult, doubled the probationary period, and said, "As long as you can make him the principal within 6 months, I will continue to cooperate with you." ”
"After 6 months, the daylilies are cold. Yan Shengrong smiled, his smile was full of helplessness, and said: "It seems that Mr. Du does not know much about the domestic education system, in order not to affect the enrollment work of the next semester, the appointment of the president of the university is generally announced in mid-March, if Chen Zhiyang wants to go to Yunnan University to be the president this year, he must get it around the Spring Festival, otherwise it will be too late." ”
On February 18, 1996's Chinese New Year's Eve, only a month and a half away from today, listening to her say this, Du Qiu knew how unreliable his brain hole was, and quickly said: "I'm sorry, I didn't know that the university works like this, or change it to next year, and I can become the president next year." ”
"No, I just came to you because I like challenges and excitement. Yan Shengrong was very angry, and said: "Mr. Du borrowed his strength to turn my knock on your stuffy stick into a public opinion basis to promote the expansion of university enrollment, and then use this to build a university town, and then use the university town to promote the construction of a new district, interlocking, wonderful, compared with your operation, the problem pattern I do is not big, if you change the difficulty to a lesser extent, it will be meaningless." ”
Du Qiu saw that she was full of confidence and seemed to be confident, so she stopped persuading, anyway, she had nothing to lose, and said: "Then let's sign a 3-month probation contract, and then talk about continuing to cooperate after 3 months." ”
"The purpose of the trial is to build a relationship of mutual trust, and it is more than enough to sign a contract, so let's shake hands. Yan Shengrong stretched out his right hand, shook it lightly with Du Qiu, and then said with a smile: "Although you don't need to sign a contract, according to national regulations, you have to pay me my salary during the probation period." ”
"Of course. Du Qiu got up and went to get the checkbook and pen, and said, "I have a personal business assistant in Cloud City, and the monthly salary is 15,000, and you also pay this price, how about it?"
"You're the boss, you're in charge. ”
Du Qiu first signed a cash check for 45,000 yuan to Yan Shengrong, and then signed a check for 60,000 yuan, saying: "This is the information fee for the six people who have opinions about me." ”
"Mr. Du, you are such a bold boss, you can't love it or not. Yan Shengrong put the two checks into his bag, took out the stack of photos displayed at the Snapdragon headquarters and handed them to Du Qiu, and said, "You can handle these people yourself, I won't interfere." ”
"Good. Du Qiu looked at the photo again and asked, "What should Wei Zhiming do?"
"Feel free, as long as the person is complete and there are no missing arms and legs, even if I have completed the old man's will. Yan Shengrong pursed his lips and said disdainfully: "There are a few Hong Kong bosses who spent a lot of money to stuff him into the lecture on November 8, but they messed up, those people are very dissatisfied with him, even if you don't do it, he won't be able to jump for long." ”
"Really?"
"This is my personal phone number, Mr. Du can contact me at any time. Yan Shengrong handed a piece of paper with nothing but a phone number to Du Qiu, stood up with his bag, and said: "Mr. Du, don't be too anxious, since Dongying sent Qian Bin to Cloud City, he shouldn't make a fuss about your past for the time being, and after this person moves over, you can contact him more and give him some inconsequential sweetness, and it is estimated that you can cope with it for a while." ”
"Will anyone be spying on him?"
"Of course there is, but it won't bother you. Yan Shengrong raised his hand and looked at his watch and said, "I'll go first, thank you Mr. Du for your hospitality." ”
"I'll take you back to the hotel. ”
"No, someone is waiting for me at the gate of the community. Yan Shengrong hooked the ends of the hair around his ears with his fingers, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "I was too confident, I thought I would be able to move Mr. Du, so I asked my colleagues to make some preparations in advance, and now it seems that I can only postpone it." ”
"Your colleague?"
"Former colleagues, to be exact, because I just resigned from the national security services in November and haven't adjusted to my new role yet. Yan Shengrong pointed to the photo in Du Qiu's hand and said, "Although these people are insignificant, it is best for Mr. Du not to circulate the photo." ”
"I will. ”
After Yan Shengrong left, Du Qiu didn't have the heart to go to work in the company, so in the name of cleaning, he came to a big inspection at home, and carefully searched every room, and did not find any eavesdropping or camera equipment, so he was relieved - if someone took pictures of him using a laptop and a smartphone, it would be a big trouble.
After Yan Shengrong and Du Qiu separated, they left Jingui Garden through the front door on foot, walked about a hundred meters along the road, opened the door of a very ordinary black Santana, and sat in the back seat.
There was a middle-aged man in his 40s in the driver's seat, of medium height, ordinary appearance, wearing glasses, and after Yan Shengrong sat down, he turned his head and asked, "How is it?"
"I used rape and homicide cases to scare Du Qiu, but he did not react in a panic, nor was he worried about the investigation of the Dongying Public Security Police, but only worried that the media would report on it after being framed and blamed, which would affect his daily life. Yan Shengrong shook his head and concluded: "He shouldn't have committed a serious criminal case in Dongying." ”
"It's good if you don't have it. The man breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Du Qiu is a genius in science and technology, and he is very important to the country, in case he did something wrong before and was found by Dongying to find evidence, it will make us very passive, since he was innocent in the past, it will be much easier to protect in the future." ”
"He can hide in Dongying for more than 10 years without leaving any traces, and I guess he doesn't need your protection. Yan Shengrong took out the check from his bag, handed over the 60,000 yuan, and said, "This is the information money that Du Qiu bought for those 6 people, you can take it." ”
"Heh, you actually took those pictures and sold them for money?" The man took it and looked at the numbers, threw them back like a hot potato, and said, "It's too much, I can't take it." ”
"Take it, I still have a lot of things to ask you for help in the future, so I should give a deposit in advance. Yan Shengrong handed over the check again and said: "It's not that I don't know your family situation, why bother to talk to me about principles, this money is not a bribe, it's just that the photography works you took in your spare time were taken by rich people." ”
"You're really good at talking. The man sneered and hesitated for a moment, then put the check away and said, "Sheng Rong, thank you." ”
"Brother Fan, it's too much for you to tell me thank you. Yan Shengrong took out a notepad from his bag while being polite, flipped through it and said: "Du Qiu is more cautious than I expected, the previous arrangements are not needed, I have to hurry back to the capital to deal with another matter, there is a flight to Jinmen at 4 o'clock in the afternoon, you can send me directly to the airport, I should be able to buy a ticket." ”
"Don't you have a fear of flying?"
"In order to make money, there is no way. Yan Shengrong smiled bitterly and said, "When you get on the plane, bring a bottle of two pots, and you will be fine after two sips." ”
"Sheng Rong, you are doing a good job in the ministry, and you are not yet 30 years old and you are in charge of an action team alone, why do you have to resign to work for those rich people. The man was very incomprehensible and said: "Although our salary is not high, we have a lot of power, and even a billionaire has to lie on his stomach if he shows his documents!"
"Brother Fan, times have changed. ”
