Chapter 293 A thorough investigation
Mr. Wen's factory is located in an industrial park on the outskirts of the city. The huge factory building glows with metallic luster in the sunset. I stand at the door of the warehouse, watching the workers load boxes of goods onto trucks. The air is filled with the faint smell of chemical raw materials.
Mr. Wen stood beside me, playing with a jade ring in his hand. "As long as you are willing to cooperate, commission is not a problem. Miss Gu, this batch of goods is the most scarce raw material on the market."
I looked down at my phone. In the video, the fans in the next episode were swiping the screen frantically, asking me to expose the fakes circulating in the market recently. As a fake-fighting anchor, every word I say could cause a storm. And Mr. Wen’s factory was the center of this storm.
"Mr. Wen, your goods are indeed good." I looked up at him, my eyes sweeping over the mountains of raw materials in the warehouse, "But I want more than just commissions."
Mr. Wen raised his eyebrows and motioned for me to continue.
"I want exclusive agency rights." I looked him straight in the eye. "If you agree, I can guarantee that your goods will have a smooth market and the price will double."
Mr. Wen was silent for a moment, turning the jade ring on his finger. Suddenly, he smiled: "Ms. Gu is really courageous. Okay, I agree."
I reached out my hand and shook his. His hand was cold and strong, as if he held some invisible power.
"It's a pleasure to work with you." President Wen turned around and instructed the assistant behind him, "Prepare the contract and give Miss Gu the most favorable terms."
I followed the assistant into the office, and the contract was already on the table. Xu Sisi stood behind me and coughed lightly, reminding me to pay attention to the details. I quickly read the terms of the contract, confirmed that they were correct, and signed my name.
"Ms. Gu, this is a sample of the first batch of goods." The assistant handed over an exquisite gift box containing the latest raw materials developed by Wen's factory.
I took the gift box and my fingertips touched the cool metal surface. Xu Sisi handed me a tablet computer at the right time, and the screen showed the market situation. I glanced at it and raised my lips slightly - Mr. Wen's goods were indeed scarce, and the price had risen by 30%.
"Mr. Wen, it's a pleasure working with you." I stood up and picked up the gift box.
“Looking forward to our next cooperation.”
When I walked out of the factory, the sun had already sunk into the horizon. I turned on the live broadcast room and fans immediately poured in.
"I have some big news for you today." I smiled at the camera, "The raw materials from Wen Zong's factory will soon be exclusively available on my live broadcast room."
The barrage of comments in the live broadcast room surged like a tide.
"Is this true? The anchor must not be fooled!"
"If the goods from Mr. Wen's factory are genuine, that would be amazing!"
“I hope the host’s selection of products this time is reliable and won’t let us down.”
However, at this moment, an anchor named Li from the same direction requested a live microphone check.
The person on the other end of the video link: "Can we watch the live broadcast of factory production now?"
"Not now, but the raw materials are subject to some confidentiality agreements, so I will send a relevant video preview later, and then broadcast it live, so that users who place orders in the live broadcast room can get relevant discounts, and we will directly ship the goods live."
"But according to the reports, there were problems with Mr. Wen's previous company. If there are problems here, can you also be responsible?"
Responsible? Obviously, I had doubts about this, after all, I didn’t have that much ability, but Mr. Wen was also watching my live broadcast and immediately sent me the relevant documents.
"Anchor Li, I have this document as well." I pulled up the database on my phone, "But you seem to have missed some key information - Wen Zong's factory completed comprehensive rectification within three months of the penalty and was awarded the title of Environmental Protection Demonstration Enterprise."
Li Ming obviously didn't expect me to fight back, and his expression froze in the microphone. I took the opportunity to call up the factory's real-time monitoring, and the fully automated production line was running in the picture, and the operating data of the environmental protection equipment was clearly visible.
"If Host Li is interested, I can take you on a site visit tomorrow," I said with a smile.
"After all, the job of a fake news anchor is to reveal the truth, not to quote out of context, right?"
The trend of the comments began to change, and fans gave me thumbs up one after another. However, at this moment, an anonymous comment suddenly popped up: Anchor, be careful! Mr. Wen’s raw materials may be involved in smuggling!
My heart sank suddenly, but I remained calm on the surface: "My friend, if you have evidence, please send me a private message. As a fake news broadcaster, I never listen to one side, but I will not let go of any suspicious clues."
After the broadcast, I immediately contacted my college classmate who works in customs. While waiting for a reply, I looked up all the qualification documents provided by Mr. Wen and checked them word by word. At three o'clock in the morning, my classmate sent me a message: Mr. Wen's import channel is completely legal and has recently obtained Class A enterprise certification.
The next day, I showed the customs certification documents and invited fans to visit the factory. Mr. Wen personally received them and explained in detail the import process of raw materials. Seeing the satisfied expressions of the fans, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
However, just as the tour was about to end, a shrill alarm suddenly sounded in the factory. Mr. Wen's face turned pale instantly - the raw material warehouse was on fire.
Hearing these words was like being struck by lightning.
"What?" Xu Sisi looked at the factory in front of her in disbelief, her mind going blank.
"Quick, quick, put out the fire."
I screamed at the top of my lungs that we must not let this sudden fire destroy this vital cooperation.
President Wen's anxious expression instantly made the tense atmosphere at the scene even more intense. He anxiously directed the employees to get the fire extinguisher while shouting loudly for everyone to stay calm and not panic. The fans were also frightened by this unexpected situation, and some of them couldn't help but scream.
The fire has just started now, so let’s pray that there won’t be too many.
At this moment, Xu Sisi suddenly grabbed my arm and said in a trembling voice: "Could it be that someone deliberately set the fire?"
My heart suddenly shuddered, and this thought was like a cold light, which made me shudder. However, I had no time to think deeply at the moment. I rushed to the raw material warehouse with Mr. Wen, trying to control the raging fire.
Just when we were busy, there was a sudden loud noise outside.
Did something else happen? When Mr. Wen and I hurried out of the warehouse, we saw a group of people in uniform standing at the factory gate. I looked closely and found that they were police.
When the police saw us, they immediately came forward. The leading officer said seriously, "We received a call from a police officer. Someone reported that there is a safety hazard here, which is very likely to cause a fire. Now we need to investigate the scene."
I cursed inwardly, which was undoubtedly adding insult to injury, but I still suppressed my anger and said, "Officer, there is indeed a fire here, but we are doing our best to put it out."
The leading police officer told me seriously: "We will investigate this thoroughly."
