Qin Hai gave the direction, to determine whether the whistleblower is Hu Xiaoshuo, it is easy for Xiao Weihao. Xiao Weihao took two people to Hongyuan and secretly summoned Hu Xiaoshuo. Hu Xiaoshuo had already thought of this result when he broke the news to Qin Hai, so as soon as he saw Xiao Weihao, he shook out everything he knew like pouring beans from a bamboo tube.

"Thank you, Comrade Xiaoshuo."

Xiao Weihao finished recording the last word, stood up and stretched out his hand to Hu Xiaoshuo, and thanked him. The information provided by Hu Xiaoshuo is very timely for the security services, and if it is delayed for a few days and Sun Zhenjiang leaks the information he has collected to foreign agencies, it will have an irreparable impact on the iron ore negotiations.

Hu Xiaoshuo politely shook Xiao Weihao's hand and said calmly: "No thanks, this is what I should do." ”

"Comrade Xiaoshuo, I still have a question." Xiao Weihao said as if chatting while packing up the recorded documents.

"Director Xiao, just ask, I know everything." Hu Xiaoshuo said.

Xiao Weihao said: "As far as we know, you have been a secretary to Mr. Pang for five years, Mr. Pang is very important to you, and has repeatedly said that when you work for another year or two, he will send you to be a branch manager and give you a very good arrangement." What is the reason for you to ......"

Speaking of this, Xiao Weihao did not say any more. Hu Xiaoshuo understood his subtext, he hesitated for a moment, and then said with a self-deprecating look on his face: "What Xiao Ju wants to ask is why did I betray Mr. Pang, right?" ”

Xiao Weihao nodded: "You can also say this, or it is more appropriate, it is called the righteous destruction of relatives." ”

Hu Xiaoshuo looked up at the sky and said slowly: "I never thought of betraying Mr. Pang. As you know, Mr. Pang is very good to me. From a fledgling hairy boy to today's status, it is the result of Mr. Pang's cultivation, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the same as my father. But ......"

At this, he sighed sadly. said: "There must always be some principles in life...... I was born in the countryside, my parents' hard work for a year is less than the difference in the price of 10 tons of iron ore, watching our Chinese hard-earned money flow into Vale's pockets in vain, I am unwilling. Mr. Qin led the team to negotiate iron ore, but Mr. Pang dismantled the stage behind his back, I can't accept it......"

"Understood." Xiao Weihao said, "But." If Mr. Pang is affected by this incident, I mean, if he leaves because of this, then your future will be over, have you thought about it? ”

"Of course I did." Hu Xiaoshuo said, "If Mr. Pang is still on stage, I will definitely get a position as a branch manager in two years, at my age...... And talents. It is not impossible to sit in Mr. Pang's current position before the age of 50. And if Mr. Pang is implicated in this matter, I can only go back to the office to be an ordinary clerk. The future will be cut off, because no new leader will appoint a traitor who has betrayed an old leader. ”

Xiao Weihao stopped what he was doing, he paused for a while, and said softly: "Xiaoshuo, don't worry, the country will remember what you did." ”

Hu Xiaoshuo shook his head. said: "No, I just did what I should do with my conscience." ”

After collecting Hu Xiaoshuo's testimony, Xiao Weihao and his entourage ran non-stop to several steel companies, basically following Sun Zhenjiang's footsteps. Sun Zhenjiang left with the front foot, and Xiao Weihao arrived with the back foot. From the company concerned, we got evidence that Sun Zhenjiang was collecting a large number of raw material inventory data of various steel companies.

When all the evidence formed a sufficient chain, Xiao Weihao asked his superiors for instructions, and he quickly got a response. Just when Sun Zhenjiang had just returned to Pujiang's office after a big turn, Xiao Weihao appeared in front of him with a team of people.

"Mr. Sun, there are some situations that need to be learned from you, can you come to us to talk about them?"

Xiao Weihao took out his ID, flashed it to Sun Zhenjiang, and then said to him in an unquestioning tone.

Sun Zhenjiang was stunned for a moment, and then asked calmly, "Can I make a call?" ”

"Not yet." Xiao Weihao said.

"Okay." Sun Zhenjiang gave up resisting. He knew that any resistance would be futile in the face of the security services. Since the other party found his door, he naturally has enough evidence. There are also a lot of materials that can be used as evidence in the computers in my office and in the filing cabinets, and it is impossible to get through by myself.

He also thought about asking the elders of the family for help, but after thinking about it, it was impossible for the security department not to know his origin, since people dared to come to him to arrest people, it was natural that they had already coordinated with his family, in other words, his family had abandoned him.

All the employees in the company's office were ordered to leave their computers immediately and stand by and wait. An employee tried to delete a folder on his computer while the security personnel were not looking, and as soon as his hand touched the mouse, he was held down. On his computer, security personnel found the monthly production materials of various iron ore mines across the country, which had not been publicly released. The employee was quickly handcuffed and escorted into an Iveco van parked downstairs.

"Eight employees of Xinzhen Trading Company are criminally detained by China's state security agencies on suspicion of espionage."

A short piece of news in China's state media instantly sent a wave through the entire international steel market. Anyone in the industry who is paying attention to the negotiations between Chinese steel companies and Vale has smelled a strong smell of gunpowder from this news. Although the news did not say which company Sun Zhenjiang and others were providing intelligence for, this circle is so big, who still doesn't know whose family's affairs? Even if there is a bit of information lag for a while, as long as you make one or two phone calls to your peers, you will know the inside story behind it.

"How did things come to this!" Callum looked at the news reprinted in the local Brazilian newspaper and angrily asked Gioftz.

"We don't know." "We didn't ask Sun to do espionage, I think he must have done it on his own initiative, or maybe other companies gave him such orders." ”

"Well, I hope so." Callum said meaningfully to Joftz, whose explanation was certainly the most beneficial for Vale. Callum threw down the newspaper and no longer cared about Sun Zhenjiang's question, but asked Joftz, "Joftz, what do you think of this move by the Chinese government?" ”

"I think it's clear from this that the Chinese government is under a lot of pressure and that they don't have much leverage to find in terms of iron ore negotiations," Jofts said. Presumably, Sun had already learned about the current plight of Chinese steel companies, and the Chinese government arrested Mr. Sun in order to cover up this information. I think the Chinese government will bow to us soon. ”

"Do you really think so?" Callum said coldly.

"So, Mr. President, what is your opinion?" Jofts asked rhetorically.

Callum shook his head and said, "I think it's the opposite of yours, and I think it's a signal from the Chinese government that they will never give in to us." Think about it, Sun Zhenjiang is a bridge between Chinese steel companies and Vale, if the Chinese government still has the idea of compromising with us, how can they tear down this bridge at this sensitive time? ”

"This ......" Joftz was a little dumb, in fact, he could also think of the truth that Callum said, but he had some preconceived notions, and always felt that the Chinese side would eventually bow its head. Now listening to Callum's analysis, he also feels that something big is wrong.

"Mr. President, if that's the case, then what should we do?" Jofts asked.

Callum lowered his head and was silent for five minutes, then said slowly: "We need to have a channel for dialogue with the Chinese side, to understand the current thinking of the Chinese, so as to determine our next actions." There is not much time left for us now, and you need to seize the time to re-establish contact with the Chinese side. ”

"But aren't we closing the door to negotiations?" You have said that we will not resume negotiations unless China offers an invitation. ”

"It was then, it's now, don't you understand the problem we face now!" Callum asked, glaring at Jeffs.

"It's ......," Jofts was speechless. The matter of closing the negotiation channel was said by Callum himself, and now it is him again, saying that he wants to re-establish contact. This kind of face-to-door thing, why is it your turn?

While Jofts was struggling with how to get out of the predicament, the previous negotiator, Lapaz, hurried to Callum's office and shouted as soon as he entered the door: "Mr. President, Mr. Joftz, I have received an invitation from China. ”

As he spoke, he held up a large envelope and shook it at the two of them.

"Invitation?" Joftz was overjoyed, and he quickly grabbed the envelope and asked Lapatz: "Is it the Chinese who are asking for the resumption of negotiations?" ”

"No, it's not." Laparz shook his head, "It was the Chinese who invited us to an exhibition in Pujiang, China. ”

"Exhibitions?" Jofts was puzzled, "What does the exhibition of the Chinese have to do with us?" Is it about mining machinery, or about new beneficiation technology? ”

"I don't understand it, so you can see for yourself." Lapaz said, pointing to the envelope.

Puzzled, Jofts unfolded the envelope and pulled out an invitation in both Chinese and English, along with a thick description of the exhibition.

On the invitation, the name of the exhibition is written:

China New Polymer Structural Materials Forum and Business Fair. (To be continued......)
