Rebirth: Let's Talk About 1984

According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.

...

Chapter 283 Being a middleman is no easy job!

Two microphones, likely from one team, or even two teams.

Xing Baohua removed the battery. Now they could talk safely.

He said to the guards, "Call for help, lock the door, and search the area."

If the Desert Prince hadn't been so cautious and had something important to say, Xing Baohua wouldn't have known that his company actually had some gadgets.

Regardless of the intention, it has already aroused Xing Baohua's suspicion.

I was furious. If I had an office romance or something, I'd be incredibly embarrassed.

Thankfully, there wasn't a small camera yet, otherwise, Teacher Chen wouldn't have had a chance.

I also called Yu Shenghai and told him to come down quickly.

This matter cannot be taken lightly.

Yu Shenghai was unaware of the specifics, but upon hearing his boss's call, he quickly came downstairs.

At this point, guards were already stationed at the gate, waiting for reinforcements from other guards; now, it was only possible to enter, not leave.

The receptionist was startled and was ushered to the lobby, not knowing what to do.

Xing Baohua showed Yu Shenghai the things that were found in his office.

Yu Shenghai's expression changed.

He said, "Boss, should we report this to the police?"

"Report it using your identity. It's best to find someone to help you, and go directly to an agency that specializes in handling this kind of matter," Xing Baohua said.

“Okay!” Yu Shenghai was a local after all, and he knew a few familiar people.

Once you get the phone number for the Commercial Investigations Department, speak directly with the person in charge, briefly explain the situation, and mention that they've discovered commercial espionage equipment, etc.

Xing Baohua then called his lawyer and asked them to send someone over to collect evidence.

This guy thought, "Whoever it is, I'll sue them to death."

Yu Shenghai went out and told the staff in the lobby to put down their work and cooperate with the guards in the search.

Three guards carried the equipment and began searching for a signal.

Three units were found in the lobby.

There was also a signal receiving device connected to a small tape recorder.

This counts as catching one.

When the scan reached the investment department, wow, there were over a dozen machines.

Xing Baohua was stunned; his own company was riddled with holes.

No news can be kept secret!

That's so embarrassing.

The business investigation team arrived very quickly.

The section chief personally led the team.

The section chief's surname is Leung, and he is usually addressed as "Leung Sir".

After shaking hands with Xing Baohua, he took over all matters.

Everyone from the investment department was taken away.

Three or five employees were also taken away from the lobby.

We finally managed to clean up some of the prisoners' belongings.

I'll have to clean it periodically from now on, even if there's nothing else to do.

Upstairs and downstairs, the Commercial Investigation Department also took away several suspects.

The fact that Andy Lau and Zou Wenjuan returned to Hong Kong with such glory was already big news.

Unexpectedly, the discovery of listening devices in Haina Holdings became major news.

In an interview, Inspector Leung of the Commercial Investigation Department also acknowledged this, adding that everything was under investigation and that it was inconvenient to disclose other details.

The less you talk about it, the more curious you become.

Everyone's attention was drawn to Hai Na because Xing Baohua made a haphazard investment in the stock market.

With large sums of money, you can still make money by doing the opposite of what you're doing.

The sheer number of followers led to a period of considerable confusion within Hainan.

Then, as Haina Holdings tightened its internal management, information could no longer be released. Now, it seems that Haina is being targeted by high-tech methods.

This demonstrates that Haina Investment Department is indeed very good at making money.

Otherwise, the investigation team wouldn't have taken everyone from the investment department away for investigation.

All the major news outlets are filled with news about Haina.

There were many requests to interview Xing Baohua, but all of them were turned down by her secretary.

After Xing Baohua took over the Commercial Investigation Department, she accompanied the Desert Prince to the beach.

The two men sat on stools in an open area by the sea, fishing.

There were hardly any people within 500 meters.

The dozen or so guards spread out, and apologized to anyone who tried to get close, asking them to take a detour.

"Xing, my friend, thank you for introducing us to a business opportunity at such a low price," the Desert Prince said to Xing Baohua casually, waving his fishing rod.

"As a friend, it's what I should do. Did you run into trouble by contacting me? You know, I'm just an insignificant businessman with little influence." To others, Xing Baohua's words seemed modest, but he was actually just telling the truth.

In the anti-corruption department, Xing Baohua was nothing! Even if he encountered trouble, Xing Baohua couldn't solve it, and he didn't even know who to ask for help.

But the desert people thought that Xing Baohua was so rich that he must have some influence, like in Western countries.

"35 eggs for only 3.5 billion dollars. That's too cheap, but unfortunately, we don't have control over them, as you know. Our neighbor, Big Beard Mu, is going a bit crazy and has already threatened our territory."

"We hope you can act as an intermediary and help us transport the 35 eggs to the desert as quickly as possible," said the Desert Prince.

Xing Baohua was bitter inside, wishing she hadn't taken on this job.

Let him act as an intermediary; what is he in China anyway? How can he help with this?

"I'll try to figure out the transportation issue. But I really can't help you with anything else. Especially the issue of control; that's a matter of principle, and no one can change it," Xing Baohua replied firmly.

“Friend, I know many things can be solved with money. I’ll give you another two hundred million. Will you help me lobby?” the desert prince said casually.

This was the 1980s!

Who are you going to persuade?! You're asking for trouble!

Money is good, but you have to be alive to enjoy it!

He waved his hand and said directly, "Alwaleed, I think you may have some misunderstanding. We are different from the West, and you can't compare us with them from their perspective."
