District 9

Two days later, on Saturday afternoon, Lao Mao stood in front of the Ma's warehouse, holding the phone and asking: "That's not right. I see this truck that pulls supplies. Why is it printed on the truck from the Tianbao Charity Foundation?"

"Yes, that's right, we are doing this in the name of Tianbao Charitable Foundation. Don't fire individuals first, let the media and the public pay attention to this foundation." Lao Li said succinctly: " I am the person in charge of this foundation. Later, in the name of the president of the foundation, I will submit a report on running for the chief councilor of Xinyuan District to the city council. This operation will not be too online. Last time I showed my face, directly in We have been attacked online, so now we should avoid it appropriately."

Old Mao was a little confused: "All the glorious things are left to the foundation, will there be any problems?"

"No." Lao Li shook his head: "When the heat is on, I will jump out and show my face at the right time. You don't know how to do this, just do it."

Old Mao really didn't understand much about this, but he believed that Old Li did, so he didn't ask any more questions: "Okay, let's go over there now."

"Well, go ahead."

"Okay, that's it." After Old Mao hung up the phone, he turned around and shouted to Liu Zishu and others: "Come on, come on, let's start moving."

After finishing speaking, a group of more than a dozen people moved all the supplies and gifts purchased in advance onto four trucks. Old Mao stood at the gate, wiping the sweat from his forehead and said: "This is all money... If you want me to spend money with you, I will be happy enough for a year."

"Haha, you are really good at what you do." Liu Zishu was speechless.

"I feel so bad, brother." The old cat sighed: "This is the first delivery, and I have to find cash later. Damn it, you have to pay for being an official!"

A few people stood next to the car and chatted for about ten minutes before Lao Li's friend Niu Hai arrived in a hurry. He is also in his fifties this year, but he is in good health. He looks fair and fair, and there are not so many wrinkles on his face. He looks like he is in his forties.

"Uncle Niu, shall we go?" Old Cat asked as he put out his cigarette butt.

"Let's go, let's go, I've made all the arrangements over there." Niu Hai nodded and hurriedly got on the off-road vehicle.

"Hey, Director Xu, just follow us in your car." Old Cat shouted.

"No, you have to take my car." The location director from the webcast station waved his hand and shouted: "We have to record a segment in the car."

"Does this still need to be recorded?"

"Delu, come here." Director Xu greeted.

…

After working for more than ten minutes, everyone left the Ma's warehouse. Niu Hai and Lao Mao were sitting in the camera car. They all put on radio microphones and put on light makeup.

The director sat in the passenger seat, turned to the camera and asked: "Did you record the location?"

"The push is over." The camera nodded.

"Okay!" Director Xu picked up the scratch paper, looked back at Lao Mao and Niu Hai and said, "There will be a few questions asked in the car. Don't be nervous. We can just chat."

"Okay." The old cat nodded.

"Okay!" Director Xu responded, pointing at the camera and saying: "Come on, 3.2.1, exterior group two, start shooting."

After the words fell, the camera moved forward, and the car instantly became quiet. The female host, who had not had much communication with Lao Mao and others before, immediately put on a smile and asked: "Mr. Niu, please give us Briefly introduce, where are we going at this stop?”

"It's like this. The living villages we want to donate to have poor economic foundations and remote geographical locations. The people in the villages have no fixed income, so we can only ask the young adults in each village to apply for temporary work permits in the area. They work collectively here. What we are going to now is the dormitory building where they live." Niu Hai said in detail: "This place is in the black neighborhood, close to the special zone wall..."

After listening, the host asked: "Is this dormitory building rented by the people of Life Village with their own money?"

"Yes, it's the kind of bed dormitory that is rented out for a few cents a day. People who work in these living villages all live here." Niu Hai nodded.

"Oh, that's right." The female host turned to look at Old Cat: "Mr. Li, I especially want to ask, why did Tianbao Charitable Foundation choose such a group of people to donate this time...?"

The old cat grinned and said very officially: "Tianbao Foundation has always paid attention to the disadvantaged groups..."

The interview in the car lasted about ten minutes. Director Xu felt that the material was almost enough, so he turned off the camera and started chatting casually with Lao Mao and Niu Hai.

Before coming to this dormitory, Lao Mao was actually a little worried about the money he spent. But when he came to this place and took a look, his heart was inexplicably clenched.

This building is not in the center of the district, and is very close to the special zone wall. It is surrounded by open fields, with only a few isolated seven or eight-story buildings standing in the ice and snow.

There is no gas heating in the building, the lights are turned off after nine o'clock in the evening, and the water supply is only available for three hours a day. The open-air toilet at the back of the building is hardly taken care of. The stench is overwhelming and rats are everywhere.

Niu Hai knew the people here and had said hello in advance before coming. Many workers who were changing shifts did not leave when they heard that there was a donation today. They tidied up the room and came to greet them.

Lao Mao followed the crowd and the interviewing media into the building, his brows furrowed.

The dormitory area of ​​each room in the building is about 30 to 40 square meters, but there is almost no space for activities. The beds are next to each other, the sun cannot come in, and the room smells damp.

Underage children, old men in their 50s and 60s suffering from various chronic diseases, and old women who are still working, all stand in rags at the door of each house, looking at the camera and clothes with numb eyes and expressionless faces. The decent old cat and the others stood motionless.

The world around the district is full of entertainment, singing and dancing every night, and the dignitaries lead a life of extravagance and extravagance. These have nothing to do with this place.

What is the dark side? What is the most unnoticed corner of the city? Here it is!

One city, two worlds, two races.

As the old cat walked here, he could no longer say such showy words, and felt extremely ashamed inside. Isn't it really cruel to use such a group of people to fulfill one's own interests?

Oh, no, Lao Li once said that the process is not important, what is important is the win-win situation. If you help him, he can also help you.

Old Mao controlled his emotions and temporarily forgot the purpose of coming here. He only distributed supplies to Liu Zishu and others seriously, and talked frequently with people who knew Niu Hai.

About an hour later, Qin Yu had just finished a meeting at the company and wanted to return to the superintendent when he received a call from Lao Mao.

"Hello?"

"I have something good. Come here quickly. I'm on the north side of the street..." Lao Mao urged on the phone.

…

Within the city.

Lao Li sat in the car, holding the phone and said: "Don't be anxious, just do as I say. This matter needs to be laid. It looks like a pool of stagnant water now, but as long as I blow the wind, the waves will come one after another." It comes in waves. There is no point in continuing the long-term adjustment, I want to decide the outcome!"
