The man turned his head and asked, "Are you in charge of registering how many children a family will have?"
"Yes, I'm from the Family Planning Commission, or 'Planning Commission' for short. Is there a problem?"
"An abbreviation?" The man's smile was somewhat sinister. He took two steps forward, raised his hand to strike, and yelled, "You son of a bitch, you almost gave me a heart attack! The Family Planning Commission, and you even gave me an abbreviation..."
"Stop hitting! Stop hitting!"
.................
Lu Feng woke up at around nine in the morning. He hadn't slept in for a while, and the fatigue from the train journey had finally been completely eliminated.
I got up, washed up, and prepared to say goodbye to He Jiale before heading to Shenzhen.
I was brushing my teeth when there was a knock on the door. I quickly rinsed my mouth and asked, "Who is it?"
"President Lu, it's me, Ye Wusheng. Something's happened." Ye Wusheng outside the door sounded anxious.
Something happened?
Lu Feng opened the door and asked, "What's up?"
"Mr. Lu, you're finally awake. Here's today's local newspaper." He handed over a stack of newspapers.
Lu Feng glanced at the headline and his face darkened completely.
That's shameless.
"Who said we've reached an agreement? This is ridiculous! It's like we've settled here. Didn't you call the city government?" Lu Feng said to Ye Wusheng, "Call He Jiale!"
"I called, and his secretary answered. He said it was a mistake by the publicity department, and they are currently communicating with them. The newspaper has been suspended."
"A mistake? You made such a basic mistake? Or did you already have the draft prepared before we arrived, ready to send it out no matter the outcome? You think you can take advantage of me?" Lu Feng angrily slammed the newspaper on the ground.
That swindler has met his match!
A staff member ran over and said, "Someone called looking for General Manager Lu."
"Who is it?" Lu Feng asked.
"They said they were friends from the underworld."
"From the underworld?" Lu Feng was full of questions. What was going on? Although he didn't understand, he still said, "I'll go answer the phone."
When he reached the phone, Lu Feng picked it up and said, "This is Lu Feng. Who is this?"
"Who I am is not important. Mr. Lu is so young, but he has really good skills. He arranged everything before we even set off. I really admire his planning ability!"
"Layout? What layout? I don't understand what you're talking about at all," Lu Feng said, puzzled.
"Mr. Lu, you're a smart man, and I'm the fool. A smart man like you doesn't need to keep playing me for a fool. Hand over the stuff, and I'll guarantee you'll leave here safely. Otherwise, don't blame me for being impolite."
"Things? You've dialed the wrong number, haven't you? I'm Lu Feng from Jiafeng Electronics. I don't understand anything you're saying!" Lu Feng felt like the other party was playing a trick on him.
"It seems Mr. Lu looks down on me. Well, with your skills and shrewdness, you don't need to say anything to me. I know I'm not worthy, but I am now that person's representative, understand?"
clear?
Lu Feng angrily cursed, "Understand my ass, you bowlegged bastard!"
"Remember what I said. If you produce the goods, everything is negotiable. If you can't, don't blame me for being impolite. You can try!" The other party threatened before hanging up the phone.
Everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment.
Lu Feng was also bewildered and asked the others, "Did I just sleep for one night? Or did I sleep for a whole year?"
"No, no, today is September 25th!"
"Was it 1992?"
"Yes, yes, yes!"
If they hadn't confirmed that the date hadn't changed, and if Lu Feng hadn't looked in the mirror and confirmed that it hadn't changed, he would have really thought he had time-traveled again. How come everything was so nonsensical?
The scene remained silent for several minutes. Lu Feng's intuition told him that he couldn't leave.
At 10 a.m., Lu Feng couldn't wait any longer and made several calls to He Jiale, but his secretary answered each time, giving him nothing but empty promises. So he drove to the municipal government himself.
"Where is he?" Lu Feng asked He Jiale's secretary as he stood at the door of He Jiale's office.
"President Lu? What brings you here? Secretary He is in a meeting and will be here soon. Please go to the reception room and have a seat and some water. It's just that your subordinates are not very efficient and have caused this mess. Please have a seat."
"Not quick-witted?" Lu Feng snorted and entered the reception room. He knew he couldn't talk to a secretary, so he went straight to He Jiale.
A few minutes later, the door opened and He Jiale walked over. He saw Lu Feng smiling, stepped forward, grabbed Lu Feng's hand, and grinned like a smiling tiger, saying, "Sorry, sorry. Although it was a mistake, doesn't it just show that it was some kind of fate?"
"Fate?" Lu Feng sat down and looked at him, saying, "You even sent your underworld brothers to threaten me, is that fate?"
"From the underworld? Which underworld?"
"What do you say? Call me and tell me to hand over my things, or I won't leave here alive." Lu Feng's voice carried a hint of anger, though he was trying his best to control it.
"This is impossible, absolutely impossible." He Jiale was also stunned. He sat down and asked, "President Lu, this is absolutely not true. Have you offended someone? Who do you think I am to do such a thing?"
Looking at his sincere face, Lu Feng realized that he had readily admitted to printing the wrong newspaper. But then he thought that given his status, it was unlikely that he would do such a thing.
"I haven't offended anyone here, especially not someone from the underworld. They even asked me to hand over my things, naming names. I didn't dial the wrong number," Lu Feng said, puzzled.
He Jiale was overjoyed. Forget everything else, Lu Feng was definitely not going to leave this time.
