Chapter 1370 Good things come to those who wait
After the team dinner, it was already past 9:30 in the evening. On the way back to Junshanfu Community, Yu Zhiming heard Zhou Mo enthusiastically mention the museum safe challenge again.
Yu Zhiming was naturally quite tempted by the wealth worth hundreds of millions, including national treasures and cultural relics lost overseas.
However, he still didn't believe that the other party would abide by the agreement and hand over such a huge fortune.
"Since this challenge started three years ago, I guess no one has succeeded yet, so there's no need to rush."
Yu Zhiming said slowly, "Things will go smoothly if we take our time. Let's first have someone find out the details of the situation and understand it clearly before we act."
Zhou Mo nodded like a chicken eating rice and said, "That's true. I found this news online. The exact facts are still unknown."
She slapped her forehead again and said, "I was blinded by wealth and lost my mind."
"No wonder they say people die for money and birds die for food. Someone like me would definitely not survive more than three episodes in a palace drama."
Yu Zhiming laughed and said, "Why would you want to dress up in a palace drama? With your conditions, you should dress up in a domineering CEO drama."
Zhou Mo pouted in disdain, "The so-called domineering CEO is nothing more than a nerdy girl's fantasy. Real CEOs wouldn't be interested in a big-breasted, brainless, and bullied vase."
At this time, Yu Zhiming's cell phone rang.
It’s Qing Ning calling.
Yu Zhiming had already informed his family that the dinner was over and he was on his way home. In this case, Qingning would not disturb him.
Unless it's urgent or important.
Yu Zhiming answered the call immediately, but the voice that came out of the phone was his father-in-law's.
"Zhiming, something happened."
Yu Zhiming's heart trembled as he heard his father-in-law quickly introduce the topic on the phone: "Starting today, we can use the Zhongshan Theater for practice and rehearsal."
"Just that afternoon, when our people were familiarizing themselves with the theater, a lamp suddenly fell from the ceiling."
"Did anyone get hurt?" Yu Zhiming interrupted and asked!
“Not really!”
Gu Changxuan replied, and then said, "It actually scared everyone. The theater staff quickly arranged for people to investigate the cause and repair it."
"That evening, the theater staff gave us some very bad news. They said that due to rust over the years, the lighting fixtures and other facilities on the theater's ceiling had become a safety hazard and needed a complete overhaul."
"This workload won't be completed in a week or two. So, our charity gala..."
Yu Zhiming frowned and asked, "Dad, Zhongshan Theater often hosts large-scale events and undergoes constant safety inspections. How could a safety hazard suddenly appear?"
Gu Changxuan angrily said on the phone: "At the moment, I don't know whether this is intentional sabotage or the theater staff didn't do their job properly, and it just happened to be our turn to be unlucky."
"But in this situation, we can't insist on holding a charity gala knowing that the theater has safety risks."
Gu Changxuan said anxiously, "But it's difficult for us to coordinate a large performance venue in such a short time."
Yu Zhiming persuaded him, "Dad, don't worry. If you can't find a way, we can go to a university and find an open-air venue. It doesn't have to be a large stadium."
Heavy breathing sounds came from the phone, and after ten or twenty seconds, Gu Changxuan's voice sounded again.
"Indeed, the form of this charity gala is not important. The only difference is the performance effect."
"Open-air venues are not impossible."
After a pause, Gu Changxuan sighed again on the phone, "I've lived for over sixty years, and I thought I was pretty good at cultivating my Qi. I didn't expect to lose my composure when faced with something like this. I'm not as calm as you, Zhiming."
Yu Zhiming explained, "As the saying goes, 'care leads to confusion.' Dad, you've invested too much energy in this charity event."
"I'm a little heartless."
Gu Changxuan chuckled and said, "You are not heartless, you are just too calm in the face of danger. I know that you have many experiences of saving people in critical moments."
"Compared to your experience of remaining calm despite the collapse of Mount Tai, my so-called Qi cultivation skills are somewhat lacking."
Yu Zhiming thought to himself, it seems that these two cannot be compared?
Gu Changxuan's voice rang out again, "Zhiming, when you come back, we'll discuss this in detail..."
After ending the call with his father-in-law, Zhou Mo's voice rang in Yu Zhiming's ears again.
"Doctor Yu, with your current status and position, there shouldn't be anyone so blind as to deliberately sabotage our charity event, right? Unless that person doesn't want to live anymore."
Yu Zhiming sighed, "I also hope this is just a work error, accident, coincidence, or other reasons that lead to good things that go on for a long time."
"However, an investigation is still necessary."
As he spoke, he dialed Wei Hao from the Municipal Bureau.
After the call was connected, Yu Zhiming briefly recounted the incident at the Zhongshan Theater.
The next moment, Wei Hao stated, "Doctor Yu, please rest assured. If this is truly sabotage by someone with ulterior motives, we will investigate thoroughly."
"Officer Wei, I'm sorry to bother you this time."
Yu Zhiming expressed his gratitude and added, "The charity gala was originally scheduled for Thursday night. With this incident, it's difficult for us to find a new large venue in such a short time."
"Officer Wei, can I have you please?"
Wei Hao replied on the phone, "Doctor Yu, to be honest, I don't have that much ability, but I will report this matter. Perhaps the leaders will find a solution..."
After half past ten in the evening, Yu Zhiming returned to his home in Junshan Mansion and saw that in addition to his father-in-law, Gu Qingran was also there.
Gu Qingran said with a bitter face: "Tomorrow, we have contacted all the large performance venues we can find in Binhai, but none of them can vacate a place for us to use."
"It's too close. It seems we can only use an open-air venue and make do with the charity gala."
"It's just that the weather is too hot."
"Or, rescheduling? The negative impact of rescheduling is too great!"
Yu Zhiming was also reluctant to reschedule. He suddenly remembered something and said, "When I was a kid, my hometown would hold a convention every year. Besides vendors selling all sorts of things, there would also be circuses, acrobatic troupes, and dance troupes. They would set up tents."
"We can also build a greenhouse."
Gu Changxuan nodded slightly and said, "Building a temporary performance tent is indeed a good idea. As for the venue, borrowing the school's football field shouldn't be a problem."
“We just need to look for one near the hotel we’ve booked. If it’s too far away, it will be inconvenient for the artists and guests.”
At this time, Yu Zhiming's cell phone rang again.
He picked up the phone and was surprised to find that it was a call from Vice President Zhang of the Armed Police General Hospital.
"Doctor Yu, I heard that the charity gala has run into some trouble and there's no venue available. If you don't mind the somewhat remote location, the Binhai military is willing to provide the auditorium."
When Gu Qingran heard this, he said to Yu Zhiming in an inaudible voice, "The location is too remote, it's inconvenient!"
Yu Zhiming said into the phone, "Thank you, Dean Zhang. It's just that the location is too remote and it's very inconvenient. We're thinking of using the school playground near the hotel to set up a tent!"
"Build a tent?"
"Doctor Yu, we can provide a field tent to accommodate fighter jets. Not only is it very easy to build, it's also waterproof and heat-insulated. It can easily accommodate one or two thousand people..."
