Chapter 47: Broken Flowers
"What are we going to do, head!?"
In fact, Lu Qi is right, before he is ready to deal with it, announcing the news will only bring great passivity. The image of the secret service team that was leaked www.biquge.info was suddenly exposed in front of all the cameras and questioned in all directions. Lu Qi's eyes were deeply sunken in their sockets. He rubbed his face as if he had spent a long night.
"Let's wait and see, it's better to see how the Qishen Group reacts." He didn't seem to have a better way, and sighed helplessly. It's better to wait for someone else to come to the door.
Ding a little head. Looking back, he saw Vissen locked in the interrogation room. Although he is still locked up in a shielded space. But outside the cage. There were still countless pairs of eyes staring at him. Whether what he said was true or not, Ding Yi felt for the first time that outside the magnetic inductance line of the cage core, a strong reverse pressure was pressing him from the entire circumference angle. It's like driftwood that has been forced into the water.
.......
Qisheng Group.
Outside the hall door, dozens of reporters from major media outlets were waiting in the cold wind. The door is closed. The square is heavily congested with traffic. Managers hang signs of closures early in the door. All security personnel are on standby to prevent any onslaught from the outside world. And the Qishen factory on the north bank of the river has also been closed and the door is locked. Especially those high-tech labs full of secrets. The factory equipment, which was working overtime day and night, finally stopped. Qishen Pharmaceutical's own power plant also stopped working. In the factory area, on the two railroad tracks leading to the riverside independent wharf, the loading cars have been stopped for a long time. The Qishen factory, which was originally bright all night, was silent at the moment, and no one was visible. Qishen Group has encountered an unprecedented crisis.
Two foreigners in black suits enter the Qi Bodying building through the back door. The security guard guarding the back door only glanced at the documents of the two of them, did not dare to ask any more, and hurriedly let them through the back door security check and let them go. Keith and Aaron entered the elevator and went straight to the president's office on the upper floor. Keith pushed open the wooden leather door with both hands.
"Mr. Anyang!" This time, the two overseers returned to the Qishen Group with a completely different purpose than the previous one.
"Mr. Anyang! Please explain how this is going on! Where is the promise? Keith walked in, leaned over with his hands on his desk and asked. An Yang was full of panic and couldn't give a word. His face turned pale and he slumped in his chair in a state of distraction.
"Oh? Is it true? Are all the rumors out there true? Mr. Anyang, did you really create the ADI virus single-handedly? Aaron asked, crossing his arms. An Yang's expression is very revealing.
"No, no!" An Yang hurriedly shook his head in a panic. But there is no reason to deny it. Aaron and Keith exchanged glances and understood everything. Although the Secret Service has never come forward to state anything. However, as the largest consortium in the region, Qishen Group has also never spoken out in front of the media. It seems that this is indeed what the Qi Group is doing.
"I had no idea! That director, Si Qi, she is dead. I had no idea what was going on, and I didn't know who created the virus! An Yang spread his hands and tried to pretend that he was innocent.
"Then go down and explain to them. You are the President of Qishen Group. We don't care what other people do. Last time, we made it clear enough with you. Pfizer-SmithKline does not want to be involved in any scandal. This includes his subordinate groups or partners. If Qishen Group did create or participated in the creation of the virus and was involved in this huge scandal, this behavior is completely contrary to Pfizer-SmithKline's founding goals and responsibilities. Then we will immediately terminate all cooperation with Qishen Group. Pfizer-SmithKline will withdraw all technology and funding and will no longer provide any guidance support. In addition, Pfizer-SmithKline will also conduct a comprehensive and thorough investigation of whether Qishen Group has used technology in violation of the terms in accordance with the terms of cooperation, and will bring it to court. ”
"Don't do that, you're going to lose the best partner in East Asia!"
"It's not about financial interests. Mr. Anyang, please understand that you have completely deviated from the original intention of the pharmaceutical company, and you are committing a crime. God will not tolerate such evil behavior of you. ”
"Please don't withdraw technical support." An Yang stood up and pleaded, "In the name of the An Foundation, I have cooperated with your company for fifteen years, so that today's Qishen Group has such achievements. If the group collapses, my father will look down on me and abandon me from now on. Please don't let me fall into that situation. An Yang's tone revealed a frozen freeze that was more terrible than his admission of crime.
"That's up to you. At least we need to see your choice, Mr. President, so that Pfizer-SmithKline will make a decision. You should understand what kind of partner Pfizer-SmithKline needs, you have your own standards in mind. The last thing we need is our corporate partners who can't afford to make a difference. Aaron took out a book to terminate the contract and threw it in front of An Yang.
"If you don't want to sign it, you should understand what you're going to do, Pfizer-SmithKline's powerful technology will never be available to the incompetent." Keith dropped an ultimatum, which naturally meant that Anyang himself would settle all the scandals.
"I see." An Yang trembled and picked up the contract and watched the two leave his office. Since the news of the virus came to light, it is impossible for the world board of Pfizer-SmithKline to not know. Anyang is naturally very aware of the abilities of these people. It is they who make the group a success. But this time, if they can't handle the crisis, Anyang will also be abandoned by them. He could not accept such an outcome in any case. Because being abandoned by them means a terrible end.
Anyang opened the drawer, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window overlooking the square, and opened a collection of jukeboxes.
......
"What will he do? A mouthful of denial and then a scapegoat? Or do you want to find the Secret Service and the Exposers, and then kill them so that they never have a voice? Aaron asked as he walked. Before leaving Anyang's office, Case had already reported the entire situation directly to Boston through stealth communication.
"Killed? I don't think Anyang has that courage. Judging from the current survey results given by Wen Ying, I don't think Anyang will be the opponent of the special service team. ”
"Yes, then I really want to see what kind of performance President Anyang will have. Keith, do you really think it's the Qi Group that created the ADI virus? ”
"What do you think?" Keith asked rhetorically.
"Isn't there anyone else involved? I don't think it's just the Qishen Group. After all, in Danyun City, the essence of almost all biological products companies in East Asia is gathered. This is an open sea fishing ground. As long as there is a suspicion of blood, it will cause a scramble. ”
"There's no need to guess, I think in a few days, President Anyang will go to Boston and explain everything to the board of directors......"
Before they could step into the elevator, Keith and Aaron heard a gunshot coming from the security office. It's not clear, but no one can doubt it, it's the sound of a pistol firing. Both stopped at the same time.
"That's his answer?" Aaron paused and looked back at the closed-door office. Keith stood at the entrance of the elevator, silent.
He ...... Aaron wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it.
"Let's go." Keith pressed the elevator control anyway, turned around and stepped into the elevator. While waiting for Aaron, who hesitated. "He threw in the towel, and he couldn't imagine that he would give the board such an answer."
The screen door closed calmly anyway.
.........
An Yang lay on the sofa. The pistol fell under the coffee table. On the handle of the gun are his fingerprints with both hands closed. On the left side of the brain, blood splattered in the direction of the bullet. A blank contract was scattered at Anyang's feet. He didn't sign it in the end. Just left a suicide note on the table, pressed under the flag stand with the Chinese and American flags.
The breeze blowing from the floor-to-ceiling windows, while carrying the snowflakes drifting in from the window, brought a slight ripple of the half glass of red wine left in the cup on the coffee table. At the other end of the coffee table, there is a vase of water plants. A pale tulip is inserted in the mouth of the bottle, and behind its flower pieces is a sickly striped petal. Snowflakes fall on the flakes and the icy temperature makes it miraculously bloom.
Outside the window, a white earth of snow and ice drifted.
