Chapter 457: Beauty Pageant
Although Zuo Feng used his connections in Nanjing to try to save the situation, as Wang Fangxiong said, this time the matter was too big, and if he was not punished, it would be difficult to convince the public.
A week later, a call came from headquarters.
Zuo Feng was officially dismissed, and his imminent promotion to the rank of colonel was also postponed indefinitely, and he was required to immediately rush to Nanjing to report on his work and wait for further processing.
Wang Fangxiong recommended Gao Fei as the director of the intelligence department, but he did not reply directly, only saying that he would study and study it carefully.
Gao Fei had no choice but to wait patiently,
In the summer in Shanghai, there is not even a sunny day for half a month. And the weather changes very quickly, the sun is still shining in the morning, and it is already pouring rain at noon.
Today is another rainy day, it has been raining since the morning, and it has been raining all day.
Zhou Zhiyu's recent mood is as gloomy as the weather.
From section chief to team leader, it used to be a separate office, but now he has to stay in the same room with more than a dozen people.
He followed Xiao Wenhu for a while, but did not find more suspicious points, and slowly lost patience.
What he didn't know was that Xiao Wenhu was not an ordinary agent, he was an elite trained by Jizhong Special Branch, and he had already found himself being followed.
During the large-scale raid, Xiao Wenhu simply stopped all activities and commuted to and from work at the anti-smuggling office every day to paralyze and confuse the enemy.
After work, Zhou Zhiyu drove to the Xinxianlin Ballroom, where the Miss Shanghai beauty pageant was being held.
This contest is not a gimmick of the dance hall itself, but in the name of a disaster relief charity performance, to raise funds for the disaster area, and all the income from the competition will be donated.
Zhou Zhiyu is not interested in charity, he is here to hunt for beauty, and he is in a mood.
In the past, when he was the section chief, he could still restrain himself. But now it's different, he's just a team leader who obeys orders and arrests people, and he has long been familiar with those rules and regulations.
The dance hall was full of people, and a woman wearing a cheongsam was showing her graceful figure to the audience.
Zhou Zhiyu handed the ticket to the waiter and said, "One." ”
"Sir, please come here." The waiter led him to an empty table in the corner.
Zhou Zhiyu frowned and said, "Isn't there a better position?" ”
The waiter said respectfully: "I'm sorry, sir, the front row table should be booked in advance, only such a seat." ”
Zhou Zhiyu had no choice but to sit down and said, "Give me a bottle of beer, ask for a platter of dried fruits, that's all." ”
The waiter didn't leave and said, "Sir, do you need to buy a ballot?" You can support your Miss Shanghai. ”
Zhou Zhiyu glanced at the two stacks of blank tickets in the waiter's hand and said, "How to buy it?" ”
"It's the primary, and you can cast a ballot for just a thousand dollars."
Zhou Zhiyu proudly took out his wallet, took out a 10,000 yuan bill, and said, "Bring me ten first." ”
The waiter took the money, put a stack of ballots on the table, and said, "Thank you for your donation to the Henan flood." ”
Zhou Zhiyu doesn't take it seriously, Shanghai, where prices are soaring, can't do anything with 100,000 yuan, since he came to see the beauty pageant, why should he participate in it
Think.
"Next, please invite the No. 19 contestant, Miss Xie Youhua to appear!"
"Knock knock knock!" A string of rapid drums sounded, the lights of the audience dimmed, and a woman came out of the spotlight.
This woman is only in her early twenties, with a handsome appearance, red lips and white teeth, and a bumpy figure.
"Good!"
There was a cheer, and then there was a round of applause.
Zhou Zhiyu's eyes lit up, he immediately took out a pen and filled in No. 37 Xie Youhua on the ballot, then called the waiter and said, "I voted for No. 37 Miss Xie ten votes." ”
An hour later, when it comes to the stage of the votes, the top 20 will be selected to participate in the semi-final selection according to the number of votes.
"Contestant No. 8, Miss Tang Jiahui, 15,750 votes!"
"The 13th contestant, Miss Yu Jiaolong, 23,000 and 20 votes!"
"Contestant No. 19, Miss Xie Youhua, 37,140 votes!"
"Miss Yao Li, contestant No. 27, 21,950 votes!"
"Contestant No. 43 ......"
"At present, the current leader in the votes is Miss Xie Youhua on the 19th! Please take a break and enter the semi-finals! ”
Only then did Zhou Zhiyu know that his ten votes were a drop in the bucket at all, and they had little impact on the selection at all, and others were voted by hundreds or thousands.
He had already drunk five or six bottles of beer, and his mind was starting to get a little excited, so he took out his wallet and slapped it on the table, shouting, "Waiter! ”
The waiter hurriedly walked over and said, "Sir, what do you need?" ”
Zhou Zhiyu took out two banknotes with a denomination of 100,000 yuan from his wallet and said, "Vote for 200 votes for Miss Xie Youhua on the 19th!" ”
Waiter: "Sir, the preliminary round is 1,000 yuan per vote, and the semi-final is 10,000 yuan per vote, so you can only vote for 20 votes with this money." ”
Zhou Zhiyu: "What if you enter the finals?" How much is a ballot? ”
"It's 100,000 votes to get to the finals."
Zhou Zhiyu suddenly realized, this is like gambling, starting to let you play a little smaller, and it is not big to win or lose. Once you're addicted and the stakes start to ramp up, you'll either not play or you'll have to raise!
Zhou Zhiyu hesitated, took out another 800,000 yuan, and said, "Vote for Miss Xie for 100 votes!" ”
If there are more votes, there will be corresponding votes, and a ballot paper will be printed with the word 'one hundred', and there is no need to fill it out one by one.
In the semi-final stage, because the amount of ballot required has become larger, the ballot box is set on the stage, and the voter's table number will be reported for each vote, and the contestants will bow on the stage to thank them.
After Zhou Zhiyu found out about this problem, he immediately found the waiter and asked, "Can I vote in the past?" ”
The waiter returned the ballot to him and said, "Sir, you are free." ”
Zhou Zhiyu walked to the edge of the stage with the ballot paper, handed the ballot to the person who sang the ballot, and said: "Table 29, my surname is Zhou." ”
"Mr. Zhou at Table 29, vote for Miss Youhua Xie Youhua, the No. 19 contestant! Thank you Mr. Zhou for his contribution to the charity performance! ”
Xie Youhua on the stage bowed and thanked him as usual and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for your support." ”
Zhou Zhiyu showed the allure of his beautiful man and said with a smile: "Miss Xie, I take the liberty of asking, can I invite you to a cup of coffee?" ”
Xie Youhua glanced at him and whispered, "I'm still competing......"
Zhou Zhiyu: "After the game, I'll wait for you at the door." ”
After saying this, he bowed his head slightly, and returned to his table very gentlemanly.
Today is the preliminary and semi-finals, and the finals will be held in three days. During this period, the top 10 contestants will enter various publicity and momentum stages, go to prosperous areas every day to give speeches and canvass for votes, or perform some small programs in the name of disaster relief.
