Chapter 46: Red



Chapter 46 Red

Although the firepower of the plainclothes officers who first rushed into the gold shop was not as good as Huang Dayong and others, they were all elites with much higher shooting accuracy, and the police support also came quickly. Well, mainly because the Flying Tigers came by helicopter, so there was no traffic jam.

After Wen Yue finished beating Ye Tianhua, he looked up and heard the sound of the propeller on the top of the helicopter spinning at high speed, and then the hatch was opened. The rope ladder was lowered first, and then the well-equipped Flying Tigers jumped down quickly with the help of the rope ladder, rushing into the battlefield one after another.

With their participation, the firepower advantage inside the gold shop was instantly reversed, and the robbers soon fell into the disadvantage, either being killed, or fleeing in panic and then arrested.

When the dust settled, the police from Wan Chai Police Station arrived late.

It was not that they were deliberately slacking off, but the traffic on the Hong Kong River was too congested, and even with the police cars blaring their sirens, it took some time. The battle ended quickly, and all they could do was to clean up the mess.

At this time, there were no people on the street outside the Lai Wing Department Store. When the robbers rushed into the jewelry store, those who could run ran away. Workers who were going to work also hid in the store and quickly closed the store door.

As for the jewelry store employees, those who could escape into the mall also fled, and the rest hid behind the counters, trembling and afraid to come out.

So the people outside now, besides the robbers who were handcuffed and waiting to be put into the police car, were the police who rushed over after receiving the news, as well as Ye Tianhua, Wen Yue, Yi Huai and others who were lying on the ground.

Yi Huai rushed down when he saw Wen Yue being held by Ye Tianhua, but he was delayed for a while because the door was locked when he reached the first floor. When he came out, the situation had turned around and Wen Yue was beating up Ye Tianhua.

Yi Huai was surprised and relieved, so he didn't move much and came over after she finished beating him.

Yi Huai was followed by bodyguards, standing with Wen Yue, and there was someone lying next to him. At first glance, he looked like a rich man bullying others.

However, when the police who came to question knew that the person lying on the ground was Ye Tianhua, their thoughts changed instantly. What did it mean that the rich bullied others? This was clearly a warm-hearted citizen who was not afraid of danger and fought against the evil! He

quickly turned his head and shouted, asking someone to come and take Ye Tianhua away.

Knowing that the person who was beaten and bleeding was Ye Tianhua, the police who came over couldn't help but look at him a few more times. When they dragged the person away, the person in charge of this action also came over.

The other party was called Chu Feifei, Li Chengbang's boss, and had met Wen Yue before.

She was very good at recognizing people, not to mention that Wen Yue was dressed as an office worker today. Although the makeup on her face was a bit heavy, the degree of disguise was not as high as last time. So she recognized her at a glance, shouted "Miss Wen", and asked Ye Tianhua who beat her like this.

Wen Yue said, "I did it."

Chu Feifei looked surprised, "Ms. Wen, did you do it alone?"

Wen Yue had never thought of being in the limelight, because later she thought back to the previous car accident and found that it was because she was too popular before and attracted attention. So even if she was careful about the Zhong family incident, she still attracted revenge.

This time Ye Tianhua's gang was even more ruthless, so she had been hiding behind the scenes until a crisis of trust occurred, then she jumped out in the name of the person in charge of the shopping mall and contacted the police.

But Wen Yue felt that this was enough, and if she did more, it would be easy to be targeted.

But when she was sorting out the whole thing at noon, she found a loophole and was worried that Ye Tianhua would slip through the net.

Although Wen Yue felt that she had not been exposed, she was afraid. Zhong Lan, a student, dared to drive a car to hit her because of other people's gossip. Who knew how Ye Tianhua would retaliate against her after he escaped and reviewed the action and found clues.

In addition, she was worried that Ye Tianhua would not give up after escaping, and would gather a group of people to make a comeback and commit murders in the future.

However, in Wen Yue's original plan, she planned to capture Ye Tianhua, hand him over to the police, and then retreat quickly, keeping a low profile.

But after beating him up, Wen Yue's thoughts suddenly changed.

This kind of absolute force crushing is so cool!

Especially when she thought about how she had been shrinking back because she was afraid of retaliation, but ended up being targeted by Ye Tianhua, and then she saw the thief king being beaten without any ability to fight back, she felt even better.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, is it really not possible to be in the limelight like this?

People are always bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. Why did Qin Shuzhen find someone to splash paint on her company? Because she offended the Zheng family and became famous? No, this is actually just the surface reason. The deeper reason is that Qin Shuzhen didn't take her seriously.

Her status seems to be not low. Her father is the richest man and her husband is also a well-known rich man, but the halo around her is actually brought by Wen Rongsheng and Yi Huai, but she herself is actually not jealous.

No, there is still some, she has the system plug-in.

When she used the system to show her toughness, Qin Shuzhen was reluctant but was forced by Zheng Xingguo to apologize to her.

But Qin Shuzhen was vengeful and did not accept lessons, so she soon organized another revenge. After Wen Yue once again showed her ability, Qin Shuzhen was afraid again and tried every possible way to get her forgiveness, but failed in the end, and the Zheng family lost.

So it’s okay to be in the limelight, but the problem is that when she was in the limelight before, she failed to scare those who had bad intentions towards her.

So what about this time?

After she subdued the thief king Ye Tianhua with her bare hands, would those who had bad intentions towards her dare to attack her easily?

Wen Yue thought she could give it a try.

So she pretended to be cool and said calmly: "Well, it's me. He looks big, but he's actually quite weak."

... "

The thief king Ye Tianhua and his accomplices appeared at Lirong Department Store, and all seven of them were arrested!"

"Surprise! The thief king made a comeback after hiding for ten years, but was knocked to the ground by a weak woman!"

"The richest woman's daughter beat up the thief king. Who says women are inferior to men!"

The above are the headlines of major media after Ye Tianhua's gang was arrested. At least half of the pictures are photos of Wen Yue beating up Ye Tianhua.

The photos were taken from the video.

Don't get me wrong, the video was not submitted to the TV station by Wen Yue for the sake of being in the spotlight.

Well, okay, she did have this plan yesterday, but as soon as she brought it up, the system said that someone had already recorded it.

The person recording the video was a reporter. After attending Wen Yue's press conference last time, she hid in the building opposite the Regent Department Store. As the Thief King had not appeared for a long time, the lives of Hong Kong citizens had returned to normal. She had no hope of being able to film the news, and had been hesitating whether to withdraw in the past two days.

Who would have thought that hard work would pay off, and she really took the exclusive video of the Thief King being arrested.

When she returned to the TV station with the video camera, the TV station that received the news was like receiving a blessing from heaven. That night, they temporarily inserted a program to review the fame history of the thief king Ye Tianhua, which can also be said to be his criminal history.

Because the reporter who recorded the video was upstairs, the distance was a bit far and he could not see Wen Yue's face clearly. So when the TV station broadcasted it, everyone thought that the person who beat Ye Tianhua was a policeman. Although it was emphasized, it was not particularly expanded. It was not

until the news was broadcast that the well-informed reporters found out from the police that it was Wen Yue who beat Ye Tianhua and focused their attention.

On the next day, these well-informed media, without any prior agreement, intercepted the photo of Wen Yue beating Ye Tianhua as the headline picture, and even many newspapers introduced Wen Yue's identity in great detail to create a contrast.

So after the news of the arrest of the thief king Ye Tianhua spread, Wen Yue also became famous.

In fact, Wen Yue was quite famous before. She had held several impromptu press conferences, and each time the topic was not low, which made the media drink some soup.

But there is too much news in Hong Kong, and the entertainment industry is developed. This time is not like when Wen Yue traveled here. In the 5G era, everything about the stars will be spread, and everyone is trying to be a perfect person, even if it is a false appearance. There

were too many scandals in the entertainment industry in the 1990s. Regardless of acting skills, at least half of the current active stars are black material.

People have seen too much, and their threshold is high. Generally, the revelations are forgotten after reading them. The scandals may be remembered for a few more days, but not more than a week.

After all, Wen Yue was not the person involved in the drama, so ordinary people did not have a deep impression of her. Even many people still define her as the daughter of the richest man, Wen Rongsheng.

The news circle has given her more labels, including the boss of Dongjiang Newspaper, gossip maker, and the latest "one of the candidates to inherit the richest man".

To use the words of the fan circle, although Wen Yue was famous in the past, she was just a general popularity, and people did not have a special desire to get to know her in depth.

But after the video was released this time, Wen Yue attracted a lot of die-hard fans. They think Wen Yue is so cool. If they were held to the head with a gun, they would have been scared to death, right? But not only did she not cry, she also beat Ye Tianhua up!

How can such a thin body have such great energy?

For a while, everyone's desire to explore Wen Yue reached its peak.

In order to cater to these people, many newspapers have done special reports on Wen Yue's growth, digging up many things about the original body that Wen Yue didn't know, such as the fact that the original body had a boyfriend in college, but after she got married, he went abroad to study, and the place he went to happened to be the UK.

The fact that the original body had a boyfriend is actually nothing, every adult has a past? She even had a crush on the most handsome guy in the department when she was in college, although she was disillusioned very quickly.

It is not surprising that the male classmate of the original body went abroad to study after she got married. At most, Wen Rongsheng was a bad person and broke up the lovers. Looking at the content dug up by the media, the male classmate also came from a wealthy family. It was natural for him to go abroad after being hurt in love.

It is not even surprising that he went to the UK. At this time, Hong Kong was still a British colony, and many people chose to go to the UK to study abroad.

It's just... this country has appeared more frequently recently, and it seems that everyone has something to do with it.

So after seeing the report, Wen Yue asked the system for details.

The system's statement was somewhat different from the media reports. The media directly referred to the male classmate as the original body's boyfriend, but the system said that they had only been ambiguous for four years.

[Ambiguous for four years? ] Wen Yue almost thought she had heard it wrong, [Are you sure you haven't been dating for four years? ]

[No, they haven't confirmed the relationship. ]

Wen Yue asked: [Who is unwilling to confirm the relationship? ]

[Xu Tianyang said that he was an illegitimate child and didn't want to drag Wen Yue down. ] Xu Tianyang was the ambiguous object of the original body.

Wen Yue sneered: [He didn't want to drag her down, but he was ambiguous with her for four years? How did they break up later? 】

The system didn't really understand, so it answered the latter question directly: [It's not considered a breakup. Before she married Yi Huai, she asked Xu Tianyang to elope with her, but he didn't agree, so she got married. Not long after, Xu Tianyang went abroad. 】

【Then they lost contact? 】

【They didn't completely lose contact. They would occasionally talk on the phone. 】

This...

Wen Yue was thoughtful. She had previously thought that the original body had a bad relationship with Yi Huai, mainly because she was dissatisfied with Wen Rongsheng's dictatorship and hated Yi Huai.

But according to what the system said, Wen Yue felt that the truth might be debatable.

At the same time, she continued to ask: [Who called whom? 】

【At first, it was Xu Tianyang who called her, and she called him more often in the past year. 】

【Could the original body's going to the UK be related to Xu Tianyang? 】Wen Yue thought and asked, [Does this Xu Tianyang know anyone from the third house? 】

[I don’t know, the original novel doesn’t mention why she went to England. ] The system replied, [But Xu Tianyang knew Wen Jiaxin, and the previous Wen Yue introduced them to each other. ]

Wen Yue, Wen Jiaxin, Xu Tianyang... Wen Yue felt that she had vaguely grasped the cause of death of her original body. But because she had never met those two people and there was no more evidence, she was not sure whether her guess was correct.

But it didn’t matter. The fight for the Wen family’s inheritance had already begun. If the third house was really behind it, Wen Jiaxin couldn’t have stayed in England all the time and would have to come back sooner or later.

We’ll know the truth when the time comes.

...

Having said that, there were many benefits to being in the spotlight this time.

First and foremost, more people are afraid of her. This was most evident when she went to the Wen family.

After Wen Jiadong was exiled, Wen Jiaqi always felt that she was a strong contender for the heir. However, after waiting for a long time, her father did not come to talk to her. Instead, she received the news that Wen Yue joined Lirong Department Store.

Wen Jiaqi felt so sad! She had a quarrel with Wen Rongsheng at that time.

Wen Rongsheng was persuaded to give up, but she was not satisfied with the conditions he offered - he asked her to work in a charity foundation.

The wealthy people in Hong Kong are very fond of charity. First of all, doing charity is convenient for managing their image. Just look at Mr. Zhong. He started out as a gangster and has a lot of blood on his hands.

But because of his passion for charity, after more than a decade of operation, not many people would associate him with the former gang leader after hearing his name, and they all think he is a philanthropist.

Some people even think that even if he was involved in a gang, he is just a big hero who robs the rich and helps the poor after learning about his past experience. What

a hero!

This guy is in the gang just for money!

But people are always more willing to believe what they see with their own eyes, which shows that there are many benefits to doing charity.

Secondly, if the charitable donations do not exceed the proportion, they can be included in the company's costs as expenses, and then the income tax can be reduced. In this way, the company's donations are not zero-cost, but at least the donations can be reduced in taxes, which is a two-pronged approach.

If a charitable foundation is established, the operating space will be even greater, and both the benefits obtained and the cost savings can be maximized.

Therefore, most of the wealthy people in Hong Kong who are keen on doing charity have established charitable foundations.

However, they are all very busy and rarely manage charitable foundations themselves. They usually ask professional managers or ask their family members to help manage them. The Wen family's charitable fund is managed by Chen Baoqin.

Chen Baoqin is the biological mother and the elder. Wen Jiaqi would definitely not have squeezed her out in the past, so she could only work under her. And the position will not be too high, because Chen Baoqin is just a title, and the actual work is done by the people below. You can't let people do things without giving them the corresponding status.

Wen Jiaqi was not dissatisfied because of this, but because the person in charge of the charity foundation said he was respectable, but in fact he stayed away from the group. To put it

bluntly, he was just a rich and idle person. Wen Rongsheng was very defensive and did not like his partner to get involved in company affairs. Chen Baoqin was not a strong woman, so she could stay in the board of directors to gain reputation and respect.

But what Wen Jiaqi wanted was the position of heir. She made trouble with Wen Rongsheng because she wanted to get involved in company affairs like Wen Yue. Going to the foundation would be of no use to her.

So she continued to make trouble.

Wen Rongsheng was not used to her. Although he was a son-in-law, he was usually very tolerant of his daughter and rarely got angry at home.

But Wen Jiaqi's ambition is written on her forehead. If she is really capable, it would be fine. But she is brainless and can't recognize herself. She only knows how to make trouble at home. Wen Rongsheng couldn't hold it back and had a tantrum at home. He directly said that she was making trouble and moved out.

Chen Baoqin didn't speak for Wen Jiaqi. Although she also loves her daughter, her son is always more important in her heart, so she always remembers that her daughter had betrayed her.

If Wen Jiaqi has the opportunity to become the heir, she may be willing to help blow pillow wind, but does her daughter's brain seem to be capable of this? Looking at Wen Rongsheng's attitude, does it seem like he is going to give the family business to Wen Jiaqi?

Chen Baoqin thinks that it is neither, so she simply hardens her heart and watches coldly.

In her opinion, instead of helping Wen Jiaqi jump up and down and annoy Wen Rongsheng, it is better to think about how to win back her husband and make more money for retirement before he dies.

So instead of helping her daughter, Chen Baoqin accused her of being ignorant and embarrassing her father. She also expressed her support for Wen Jiaqi to move out if she kept making trouble like this.

Seeing how heartless Mom and Dad were, Wen Jiaqi was so angry that she went back to her room and cried for more than half an hour.

After crying, she finally recognized the reality. She no longer made trouble in front of Wen Rongsheng, and she no longer pointed at the position of heir. She seemed to be more honest.

But only in front of Wen Rongsheng, she was still so noisy in front of Wen Yue, and even eager to fight with her.

Well, this happened before the Thief King was caught.

After the video of Wen Yue beating up the Thief King was released, when she went to the Wen family again, Wen Jiaqi seemed to avoid her. Even if she bumped into her by accident, she would run away quickly, as if she was afraid that she would use her fists.

Chen Jikang also avoided Wen Yue in the company for two days.

In the past, he thought that Wen Yue was a flower raised in a greenhouse. She was young and inexperienced, so he dared to slam the table at her. Now that he knows that she was able to beat up the Thief King with her bare hands even with a gun pointed at her forehead, Chen Jikang can't help but feel scared.

This woman is a ruthless person!

Liang Jiaming was not afraid because he had never offended Wen Yue directly, but his attitude had changed. There was less contempt in his eyes when he looked at her, and a little more seriousness.

In fact, there were many people in the company who looked down on Wen Yue before. It had nothing to do with gender. They just thought that she had never worked before and was lucky to be able to land in Lirong Department Store.

Moreover, after joining the company, Wen Yue started to be late, leave early, or even not come to the company after just a few days of work, which was very much like a playboy. When

the press conference just started, some people in the company changed their minds about her and felt that she was not indifferent. But as the Thief King did not show up for a long time, these people's ideas changed. They felt that she had missed the point. The most important thing at the moment was how to recover the flow of customers, but she only knew how to prevent the Thief King, and even caused the flow of customers in the mall to drop to the bottom.

But facts have proved that Wen Yue is still very foresighted. Under her operation, the image of Lirong Department Store has indeed been improved after the thief king was caught, and the customer flow has also increased a lot.

Especially the several shopping malls in the Bay Area that she is in charge of, under the star effect of her, the person in charge who has just become popular, the customer flow has ushered in an explosive growth.

Among them, Lirong Department Store in Causeway Bay has to add a report button at the door because of too many customers, so that customers have to line up to enter.

Not to mention that Wen Yue can fight.

Now no one in the company dares to look down on Wen Yue anymore, and even many female colleagues have become her fans. Every time they see her, they have starry eyes and a look of admiration.

Wen Yue... well, just enjoy it in general.

Secondly, because the customer flow of several department stores in the Bay Area has experienced explosive growth, Wen Yue has exceeded her target without submitting a single proposal.

Of course, it is a bit early to say that she has exceeded her target now. After all, people's enthusiasm comes and goes quickly. When this wave of enthusiasm passes, the customer flow of Lirong Department Store will definitely decline.

However, the geographical locations of several department stores in the Bay Area are very good. If they had not been closed due to fire problems before, it would not be difficult to stabilize the customer flow.

After the Thief King incident, the image of Lirong Department Store has been greatly improved. Now that the fire-fighting closure is no longer a problem, even if the customer flow declines, as long as there are no new accidents in the future, the report for the second half of this year will not be ugly.

If the plan submitted by Wen Yue can be implemented and the effect is good, it is not a dream to exceed the target.

But Wen Yue was not in a hurry to submit the plan in the company. She is only the vice president now, and there are three mountains above her. It may not be easy to implement the plan.

Even if she overcomes all difficulties and successfully implements the plan, there may be two results. One is that the effect is not good and she will be blamed; the other is that the effect is good and others will take credit for it.

Don't think that she will not be robbed of credit because she is the crown princess. These people in the workplace are mean. A half-level higher official can suppress others to death, not to mention that Chen Jikang is the president, more than half a level higher than her.

And Chen Jikang has done this before. In recent years, he has resigned because of his credit. You can't even count them on one hand.

So before submitting the plan, Wen Yue decided to get rid of Chen Jikang first, and then strive to become the president herself.

The former is easy. Chen Jikang has embezzled tens of millions of dollars over the years. If all the money is exposed, it will not be difficult to dismiss him or even send him to prison.

The latter is not easy to say. After all, there are two people above her and below Chen Jikang, especially Liang Jiaming is Wen Rongsheng's man.

Compared with the vice president and general manager, Wen Yue is too young and has too little experience.

But she is not without advantages. First, she is the crown princess. No matter how plastic the father-daughter relationship is, she and Wen Rongsheng are definitely closer.

Second, she has 5% of the shares of Lirong Group. Don’t think that 5% is too little. This is considered a major shareholder.

Third, she is now famous. If she can run Lirong Department Store, her fame and Lirong’s brand can complement each other and help Lirong stand out from the crowd of shopping malls.

Fourth and most importantly, Wen Yue’s soul comes from the future. Although the entity declined before she traveled through time, many shopping malls closed down due to poor management, but there are also many excellent examples.

Although she has never run a shopping mall, she has seen a lot. If she runs Lirong Department Store, it can prevent the company from taking a detour and achieve better development in the changing times.

The problem is how can she let others, that is, Wen Rongsheng, know that she has this ability.

After consideration, Wen Yue took the evidence given by the system and the plan made during this period to find Wen Rongsheng.

Wen Rongsheng is the founder and major shareholder of Li Rong, and he is still the top leader. His words carry a lot of weight in the group. As long as he can get his support, being young and inexperienced will not be a problem.

Will he agree to let Wen Yue take the position?

Wen Yue thinks that Wen Rongsheng letting her work in Li Rong Department Store is a test in itself, in order to explore her potential. It's just that before, she had nothing except her background, so she could only be the vice president.

But knowing that Li Rong Department Store in Causeway Bay was targeted by Ye Tianhua's gang, her performance should be outstanding.

Even if Ye Tianhua's gang managed to escape, only the gold shop would suffer serious damage. However, if Lirong Department Store did nothing, its image would inevitably be affected, and the merchants stationed there would also be resentful.

Wen Yue's public statement of her attitude at the press conference under pressure can be said to be a good crisis PR. Moreover, she also captured Ye Tianhua alive, which greatly improved Lirong's brand image.

Therefore, as long as medicine has not made a breakthrough to the point where dead sperm can give birth to a child, Wen Rongsheng should not refuse her a chance.

This is indeed the case.

Seeing Wen Yue take out the evidence of Chen Jikang's corruption, Wen Rongsheng could not hide his surprise on his face. How long has she been in the company? According to Liang Jiaming, she didn't seem to have been in the company for long. She was busy with the department store business. She found such detailed evidence so quickly.

Looking at Wen Yue's plan, it's a bit exaggerated to say it's perfect, but the measures she proposed are indeed refreshing.

It can be seen that she has ability and potential.

However, although Wen Rongsheng is willing to give Wen Yue a chance, he does not intend to give her too much help. He said that he can only support Wen Yue to be the acting president. Whether she can be promoted to a regular position in the end depends on her performance.

Wen Yue was not surprised. She originally expected an acting position, but in negotiation, of course she had to speak up high so that there would be room for bargaining.

But the title can be a little worse, but the treatment cannot be less. With Wen Yue's insistence, she fought for a salary similar to Chen Jikang.

But because the company has rules, the salary should be how much it is, even if Wen Yue is the crown princess, there can be no exception, so the gap is given to her by Wen Rongsheng in private in the name of pocket money.

Wen Yue agreed immediately, after all, this can save taxes, and when her salary increases, she can make Wen Rongsheng continue to pay by making a fuss.

Pocket money! Of course it can only go up and not down!

Wen Yue thought in her mind.
