It was a summer night with the lights on, the raging heat did not dissipate much, in a ward of a private hospital with a quiet environment, Li Zhou slowly opened his eyes, and there was a drip on his arm, different from public hospitals, the independent single room made Li Zhou, who was still on the verge of sobriety, feel that he was like Alice, a baleen whale in the Pacific Ocean in "Alice's Loneliness", bearing the anxiety of life alone, and longing for eternal companionship, accepting helpless parting, and looking forward to the joy of reunion.

After a while, Qi Yudong pushed the door in and said:

"I brought a cup of stewed pork rib soup with tea tree mushrooms and drank it hot. ”

Qi Yudong didn't see outside, he picked up the bowl in his hand and was about to feed it, not to mention that it was okay, Li Zhou slept on a drip until now, and the stomach worms were all tempted to crawl around by the rich and strong soup. I subconsciously tasted the soup spoon that stopped at my mouth, the hot soup went down, the empty stomach moistened and comfortably ironed, and my eyes narrowed with satisfaction, only to realize that I had just been obediently "fed". Thinking that he was still angry with Qi Yudong before falling asleep, his ears were so embarrassed that he immediately turned red. Qi Yudong sat quietly on the side, even if he was sitting, he was a lot taller than Li Zhou, quietly looking at Li Zhou, whose ears had turned red, his eyes were full of tenderness.

Qi Yudong obviously didn't want to let go of this great opportunity to offer his affection, and patiently and slowly fed his Zhouzhou spoonful by spoonful, Li Zhou thought to himself that he had already taken the first sip anyway, and he was not bad at this bowl of soup, so he half-lay down and enjoyed the service with peace of mind. One feeds, the other drinks, the two shadows are intertwined in the warm yellow light, there are no superfluous words, there is no tense atmosphere, and both of them seem to cherish such a beautiful and quiet moment.

No one knows the pulse of love, but it makes the beloved live up to his ......

Early the next morning, Wu Kong, the deputy director of the administrative department who was absent yesterday, hurried to the hospital, I don't know if it was the pungent smell of disinfectant water that permeated the hospital that made him habitually nauseous, or the already difficult problem that made him worry about it. Walking normally, he suddenly seemed to realize something, and turned around suddenly, the elevator door where Qi Yudong and his party were riding had just closed, and naturally he didn't see anything. Looking around, this private hospital with tight security measures has no idlers coming and going. The nasolabial folds on his forehead were wrinkled deeply, and he thought that maybe he was too careful, so he ignored it.

"Seems to be recovering well, Director!"

As soon as Wu Gong entered the door, he saw Li Zhou, who was shrunk in the quilt and was a groundhog, and his friendship for many years was naturally unrestrained, and he joked with him easily.

"Even you're starting to be indecent, it seems that the department has been quite idle lately, huh?"

"Eh, when I didn't say it, I couldn't even make the slightest joke. But I still have to be verbose, don't work so hard, your number one is down, and the department can't function?"

Wu Gong and Li Zhou are the same age, but standing together, Wu Kong's image is particularly eye-catching, and his hair has not had time to escape the crisis of middle-aged baldness, so he is half bald, and he simply raised his bald head, slightly chubby and smiling all year round, and people say that he is the "fat Maitreya" of the Administration Department. It's just that this big Buddha "recited the nagging sutra" at the beginning, and I was afraid that it would not stop for a while. Li Zhou hurriedly stood up, hooked up the mobile phone in the clothes on the side, and the dozen or so missed calls on it were all made by Wu Gong, and shook the phone helplessly at Wu Gong and said:

"Yes, yes, my conscientious Deputy Manager Wu, don't read your great mercy and compassion first, I'm sorry I didn't receive your call yesterday afternoon, now let's talk about it, who did Zhao Dahuai see after he left?"

Wu Gong helped the glasses frame that was about to slip off, squinted his eyes, and a trace of an unpredictable smile floated on his slightly fat round face, and said:

"Just after you sent me a text message, I followed Zhao Dahuai all the way back to his old house in Hexi, and sure enough, he and his brothers staged a full martial arts in broad daylight, and he was beaten at the door of his house and fled with a blue nose and swollen face! Don't say that I am gloating, there are not a few people around to watch the excitement, and I haven't seen anyone come out to squeak, it seems that this Zhao Dahuai usually bullies his neighbors. ”

"His three brothers are not vegetarians, they don't recognize money, and now they know that Zhao Dahuai has 200,000 yuan, and they pounce on it like a dog seeing meat and bones, and Zhao Dahuai will be very sad in the future. ”

When Li Zhou found out that Zhao Dahuai's family background was intentionally taking advantage of their brother's greed, he was naturally happy to see the current situation come to fruition.

"And after that?"

Li Zhou always felt that the incident didn't want to be so simple on the surface, otherwise he wouldn't let the shrewd and powerful Wu Gong follow Zhao Dahuai.

As soon as he said this, Wu Gong immediately became excited and said:

"Guess where Zhao Dahuai went after that? He was beaten and didn't find a place to hide, but took a taxi and went straight to the west of the city, and finally entered a newly opened club: "Phoenix Terrace". And in it, he stayed for a few hours, and I saw that he was going to cat there for a night, and it seemed that it was not the first time he had been to this clubhouse. ”

"Strange thing, this is a new membership-based club opened this year, only old members recommend new members to join the club can enter and exit freely, I once heard Sister Lisa of the public relations department mention. But Zhao Dahuai is unimpeded in it, it seems that there must be a long-term suite in the clubhouse, but in this way, it is strange?"

According to the clues provided by Wu Gong, Li Zhou carefully analyzed layer by layer.

Hearing him say this, Wu Gong thought for a while, pondered something and said:

"With Zhao Dahuai's current living standard, he simply doesn't have the financial resources to go to Phoenix Terrace to spend, unless he ...... There are other people who have chartered the suite, so that he can hide in such a well-guarded clubhouse without fear. ”

"That's right, this also confirms my initial conjecture, Zhao Dahuai and the whole thing is a malicious incident carefully planned by someone......., do you know that Zhao Dahuai contacted the media and reporters in advance at the beginning?

"What? He still has the courage to convene the media? This matter will not stand even if it is sued in court, let alone exposed to the media, unless, he doesn't care if he can get 5 million in compensation, he is going to make trouble!"

Wu Gong also figured out the key point, gritted his teeth, and had another layer of hatred for Zhao Dahuai, a despicable villain.

Although he was sick, Li Zhou's mind was still very clear. He has worked with media outlets large and small for many years, and knows that the public likes to sympathize with the weak, and once a company appears too strong in front of the public, it is difficult to gain public support. If it weren't for the fact that he was "reminded" to use Zhao Dahuai's three greedy brothers, he would have solved Zhao Dahuai with just the right expression. If, at the beginning, the company followed the standard process and filed a civil lawsuit through legal means in accordance with the compromise plan proposed by the legal department and the personnel department, this would have been a relatively good method, because the public believed that everyone was equal before the law, the court would make the right judgment, and the public themselves did not need to say much, and in the end, Zhao Dahuai's ugly face would naturally be known to the world.

"Time is the most powerful weapon of public relations" although this sentence is true, but the timing is not right, originally Senzhi shoes is now now into the enterprise strategy in the mature period, the domestic market tends to be saturated, the pace of foreign expansion has slowed down, the spread of public opinion events is because this event can become the talk of the public. If Senzhi does not respond to this matter, there is no new development in the incident, and it will become boring to talk about this incident repeatedly, and public opinion will inevitably decrease to a certain extent. However, this method will not change Senzhi's corporate image, but will give people the impression of being insincere, not close, and a thief. When the limelight of the 5 million compensation incident has passed, when the company reshapes its brand image, it will only re-arouse the bad impression of the public. At that time, there will be no arguments, and it will only become the target of public criticism, and the intervention of public opinion and the media will slowly eat away at Senshiba's reputation. But I have to think deeply, is Qi Yudong really as he said that he only learned about Zhao Dahuai's style by chance, or has he been prepared for a long time?

Li Zhou's bright eyes shone slightly, and his sickly thin jawline was lined with white lips, revealing a sharp taste. Thinking of this, I can't help but have a little headache, it seems that if we want to open a breakthrough, we have to start from the mysterious club of Phoenix Terrace, and if we fail to make a move this time, will the "black hand" behind it come out again?

Wu Gong interrupted Li Zhou's deep thought:

"I said, you have a good rest for a few days, I have everything in the company!

Wu Gong involuntarily touched his bald head, tugged at his increasingly obese beer belly, and then looked at Li Zhou, who was seriously ill but still handsome and handsome, and deliberately scared viciously.

Li Zhou nodded, seemingly agreeing with Wu Kong's proposal to rest for a few days. It's just that he told himself that everything was not as simple as he imagined.

After Wu Gong left, he took out his mobile phone and sent a message to Lisa, the head of the public relations department, wanting to learn more about the situation of "Phoenix Terrace" through Lisa's connections. Soon Sister Lisa's call came back:

"Xiao Li Zhou, you are Senzhi's famous "pure heart and few desires", when did Langyuan Immortal Bao go down to the mortal world, there are not a few people who look for me to enter the Phoenix Terrace, but if you come to ask me, I have to persuade well, but I must not fall into the red dust like everyone else. ”

It's not a loss to Sister Lisa, a well-known strong woman in the industry, who said Li Zhou with a slight redness in just a few words.

"Sister Lisa, I'm really serious, don't fool me. ”

Lisa is the old veteran of Senzhi, she is very optimistic about Li Zhou on weekdays, seeing that he is always personable and cautious on weekdays, it is rare to see him deflated, I can't help but tease him with a sentence or two, jokes are jokes, Lisa still said happily:

"If you want to go into the ordinary fun and have fun, I can take a bridge from it, but to be honest, if it's just a simple leisure, where is it not playing? So, I have a piece of news, those opportunists who want to go to Phoenix Terrace with their sharp heads, they are interested in the strong backstage and intricate membership background of Phoenix Terrace. In this regard, you can't look for me. ”

"Then listen to what you mean, sister, you must have a doorway to peek into one or two?"

Thousands of clothes, no sycophants, Lisa was coaxed by Li Zhou's words to laugh on the other end of the phone:

"Count your mouth sweet, you have to find a broker named Xiao Chuang for this matter, go through his way, and Phoenix Terrace will let you travel. ”

"My sister still feels sorry for me, next time I go with you for auspicious food, as long as you like to eat, you can order whatever you like!"

Li Zhou is not ambiguous, the most expensive Japanese food in W City is Sister Lisa's favorite store, and she will not lose money in order to get a big blood under the Phoenix stage.

At the end of the call, he threw the mobile phone on the sofa, Li Zhou leaned heavily on the head of the bed, and could not be depressed for a long time. He let out a long sigh, rubbed his swollen eyelids, and finally fell asleep from his tiredness.
