Seeing Xiao Weiguo like this, Zhang Damao also became nervous.
"Chairman, don't scare me, has something happened?"
Xiao Weiguo shook his head.
"It's not clear yet, but something bad is very likely to happen. Don't worry, just do as I say, and leave the rest to me, okay?"
Zhang Damao nodded mechanically.
"Chairman, please speak."
"Director Zhang, go back to the guesthouse immediately. If Bai Huaqing comes looking for you, pretend to be very angry. If he asks you why, just say that I called you here to tell you to stop making this script. I said I don't like this script and won't let you film it. I changed it to a script that I got from someone else."
"Remember, you must pretend to be very angry, and it would be best if you cursed at me a few times."
"Oh, why?"
Zhang Damao didn't understand why Xiao Weiguo was now going after him and scolding him.
"Director Zhang, don't worry about so much. If you want your family to be safe, you have to do as I say, okay?"
Xiao Weiguo put his hands on his shoulders and said to him very seriously.
"What's wrong with that? I'm sure I can act it well."
For a director, acting is his forte, isn't it? If he doesn't even have that skill, how can he guide those actors?
"good."
Seeing that he agreed, Xiao Weiguo continued.
"Also, if Bai Huaqing tries to recruit you again, don't agree immediately, but don't refuse either. Show that you're hesitant. Let him think that you're interested in going with him, but haven't made up your mind yet."
Zhang Damao nodded in agreement again.
Xiao Weiguo breathed a sigh of relief and stood up.
"Alright, that's all. Director Zhang, you can go back now. Remember to give a good performance. Whether this time something serious happens depends entirely on your acting skills."
Zhang Damao never dreamed that one day he would become an actor and act in a play under someone else's director.
After dismissing Zhang Damao, Xiao Weiguo immediately picked up the phone and dialed the number of Liu Changhe, the director of the municipal bureau.
When the call was answered, Xiao Weiguo said "hello" and said directly that he wanted to speak to Director Liu Changhe.
The young man who answered the phone immediately found Liu Changhe for him.
"Uncle Liu, it's me."
Xiao Weiguo didn't have time to mince words, he directly gave his address and continued speaking.
"Uncle Liu, there's something I need your help with."
Liu Changhe laughed heartily and said.
"Why are you being so polite with me, kid? Just tell me what's wrong, and I'll help if I can."
So Xiao Weiguo recounted in detail what had happened at the company during this period, emphasizing the background and strength of the Bai brothers, as well as their style of doing things.
Finally, he said.
"I suspect that the expert who followed Bai Huaqing has already gone to Zhang Damao's house, and his family is in danger."
Hearing that someone dared to act so arrogantly on his own turf, Liu Changhe couldn't help but be furious.
"Damn it, is there no law anymore? Don't they know where we are? Using their methods to commit crimes, do they think we're just for show? Just tell me what you want to do, and I'll definitely cooperate with you."
"Uncle, this is what I think."
"That Yaji went out on his own, his destination must be Zhang Damao's parents. He definitely wants to kidnap one of them or both of them."
"Once we return to the port city, we can use that to threaten Zhang Damao. Then, we won't be able to use our power. The only way now is to find him before he makes a move, bring him to justice, and ensure the safety of Zhang Damao's parents."
"My idea is that you send a few elite personnel, and I will have Jiao Bai lead the team to Zhang Damao's hometown immediately, where we will lie in wait for him."
“I’ve already instructed the security guards at the company to try their best to stop those people from leaving, but we don’t have law enforcement authority. If they really insist on leaving, we can’t stop them. Could you send some people over here as well, and detain them here if they try to leave, on the grounds that they are highly suspected?”
"Okay, that's a good idea. We'll do it your way. I'll send someone over right away, and they'll be at your company shortly."
Xiao Weiguo's considerations were very thorough, and Liu Changhe readily agreed.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Weiguo called Jiao Bai over and explained the situation to him. He told Jiao Bai to wait for the police to arrive and then take a few people to protect Zhang Damao's parents. He also told Jiao Bai that if they encountered Yaji, they must bring him back, because no one could feel at ease with such a menace out there.
Jiao Bai must make thorough preparations and must not be careless.
Jiao Bai was quite interested in Yaji, his opponent.
Last time, it was a brief encounter, with neither side using their true strength. As he left, Yaji provoked him, clearly wanting to test his skills against that reckless Southeast Asian.
Jiao Bai is incredibly confident in one-on-one combat.
"Brother, don't worry, as long as I run into him, I will definitely not let him get away."
Jiao Bai knew a bit about the kung fu over there; it was indeed ruthless and cunning in combat, with every move potentially fatal.
However, in terms of comprehensiveness, it is far inferior to traditional martial arts.
With Jiao Bai's skill foundation, he was confident he could defeat that guy in a prolonged confrontation.
Xiao Weiguo was quite confident in Jiao Bai's skills, and upon hearing this, he felt somewhat relieved.
Shortly after, several police cars arrived at the foot of the Panlong Building.
Xiao Weiguo led Jiao Bai onto the elevator.
Four police cars arrived with a total of fifteen police officers. Each one was a carefully selected elite, and the team was led by Hu Haidong, Liu Changhe's capable lieutenant.
Since both sides were acquaintances, no introductions were needed, and the operation proceeded immediately.
On the Panlong Group's side, eleven police officers remained to assist the company's security guards in keeping Bai Huaqing under control. They would step in if the security guards couldn't hold out.
In addition, Hu Haidong, accompanied by four policemen led by Jiao Bai, headed straight for Zhang Damao's hometown.
Jiao Bai was skilled, Hu Haidong and the four experienced police officers had a lot of experience, and Zhen Li was on their belts, so dealing with Yaji was no problem.
To avoid alerting the enemy, they didn't use police cars, but instead drove two Santanas that Xiao Weiguo had transferred from the company.
Both sides, each with their own agendas, engaged in a game of strategy.
In Zhang Damao's large suite.
Bai Huaqing sat casually on the sofa with his legs crossed, a smug look on his face.
Zhang Damao sat silently at his desk with a gloomy expression, a script that had been torn to shreds in front of him.
This was the second film he was preparing to shoot: "Nine Bends of the Yellow River".
Zhang Damao repeatedly picked up the papers and slammed them heavily onto the table.
"What does a mere kid know about movies?"
Bai Huaqing didn't say anything, but just looked at him with great interest.
The angrier Zhang Damao got, the happier he became.
