Late at night
Hilton Hotel!
Cao Junyan walked into the hotel lobby with her female assistant and four bodyguards.
Walking towards the elevator, she rubbed her brows tiredly.
"Miss Cao, one elevator is under maintenance. Please take this one!" The girl at the front desk came forward respectfully and attentively to help press the elevator.
"Thank you!"
Cao Junyan nodded and walked in.
"Mr. Cao, there are still some details in the bid for the West City project that have not been finalized. The project department is already working overtime to prepare, and it is expected to be completed in two days."
"As for the relocation address of the group headquarters, we have also selected several places. After you select them, you can start the relocation..."
"In addition, the investigation of Hongsheng Group is still ongoing..."
The female assistant habitually reports work in the elevator.
The elevator was empty late at night, with only her voice and the faint breathing of the bodyguards.
Suddenly, a shrill alarm sounded.
For some reason, the elevator stopped running and even began to fall rapidly.
"Ah!"
"Boss Cao, be careful!"
The female assistant screamed in fear.
The bodyguards also hurriedly supported Cao Junyan. Everyone was startled by the sudden movement. After coming to their senses, a bodyguard began to frantically press all the elevator buttons.
The elevator began to fall madly from the 27th floor!
No matter how the bodyguards pressed the elevator buttons, it was useless.
All this happened so quickly and suddenly that no one could react. Everyone was so scared that their faces turned pale and they barely kept calm by holding on to the sides of the elevator.
"What should we do? How could this happen?"
"No, the falling speed is too fast. If we can't stop the falling trend, we will die."
"Damn, how can we be so unlucky? We can't even find someone to rescue us!"
"Ah..."
There was a chaotic scream in the elevator.
Cao Junyan was also scared at this moment.
However, just when the elevator was about to crash straight to the ground, it suddenly stopped on the second floor. The sudden stop of the elevator shook everyone violently, but everyone couldn't help but be ecstatic.
"Damn, it finally stopped, fortunately!"
"Quick, quick, quick, open the door!"
The bodyguards were full of relief, thinking that this was just an ordinary elevator accident.
The female assistant also cursed after surviving the disaster: "This five-star hotel is too unreliable, right? I must complain to them later!"
Cao Junyan didn't say anything, but he always felt something was wrong!
Sure enough, the next moment the elevator fell madly again.
This time the speed of falling was faster, and everyone only had time to scream.
The elevator rumbled from the second floor to the negative first floor.
"Boom!"
There was a tremor of the ground and the fire of the wires flickered.
Cao Junyan and others groaned and fainted.
…
Guanlan Manor Villa District
Cao Mingzhou was awakened by a knock on the door in his sleep.
He fumbled to turn on the bedside lamp in a daze, put on a coat, and then got up and opened the door. Seeing that it was his confidant Secretary Wu, he couldn't help frowning and said, "What's the hurry? Come here so late at night?"
"Yanjing urgently stopped the high-paying science and technology industrial park in the west of the city and the free trade zone project." Secretary Wu reminded in a low voice.
"What?"
Cao Mingzhou was so scared that his voice rose a lot.
"How could this happen?" He paced back and forth in shock: "It's wrong, how could this happen? We have been preparing for so long, and everyone is busy, why did it stop at the critical moment? Have you asked what happened?"
"Not sure!" Secretary Wu lowered his voice and said, "I just heard that someone above specifically said hello, so that the project was temporarily stopped. A formal communication will be issued tomorrow, and it is still unknown when it will be restarted."
"Hiss!"
Cao Mingzhou took a breath of cold air.
Only two names came to mind - Wei Hong and Huo Yinghao!
Every detail of this project has been negotiated. Only the two of them may cause trouble because of the failure of the competition. Huo Yinghao's Huo family may not break up, so it is very likely that it is Wei Hong. What kind of connections does he have to control the life and death of a project?
Secretary Wu whispered at this time: "In addition, two hours ago, Mr. Guo was attacked in Jintai Nightclub."
Cao Mingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly, picked up the teacup on the desk beside him and took a sip, and then asked in a deep voice: "Is it Wei Hong who did it again?"
"It's probably him!" Secretary Wu continued: "Mr. Guo was having fun in the nightclub late at night, and was attacked by a mysterious knifeman. The six bodyguards and himself suffered a lot of knife wounds."
"When the police arrived, the knifeman had left. No one was killed and not too many people were alarmed. Only a few insiders witnessed the situation. However, the surveillance of the nightclub has been deleted, and Mr. Guo himself saidInsisting that it was a mutual fight, he requested that no case be filed!"
A trace of surprise flashed across Cao Mingzhou's face, which was originally slightly angry.
He drank two more sips of tea before he couldn't help but sighed: "This Wei Hong is really a good trick!"
"Aren't you angry?" Secretary Wu cautiously probed: "Openly using violence to attack bidding opponents is a gang violence, which is completely illegal."
"That's why I say he is smart!" Cao Mingzhou put down the teacup and sighed: "He dared to step on the red line and violated the rules, and he knew how to control the scale. He didn't dare to pursue the responsibility even when Guo Ming was chopped. This matter is probably a big thing to a small thing, and he has achieved the purpose of warning competitors. It's really amazing!"
"Then we don't care?" Secretary Wu was puzzled.
"Since ancient times, officials don't investigate if the people don't sue. Guo Ming has said that he won't investigate, so who would take the risk to investigate?" Cao Mingzhou shook his head and sighed: "Even if we investigate, he is just a knife pusher who comes out to take the blame. This guy is really amazing. Not only did he stop the project, he also warned Guo Ming. It seems that it is still unknown who will win the bid this time. "
"Ding-ling-ling!"
At this time, the mobile phone on the desk rang.
Secretary Wu took two steps forward and handed the phone over respectfully.
Cao Mingzhou frowned when he saw the note on the phone. After answering the call, he couldn't help asking: "Yan Yan, why are you looking for me so late at night?"
"What? How could this happen?"
"Okay, I'll send someone to investigate immediately. You take care of your injuries first. I'll go to the hospital to see you later!"
Cao Mingzhou hung up the phone with a gloomy face.
Without waiting for Secretary Wu to ask, he gritted his teeth and said: "When Jun Yan returned to the hotel, the elevator lost control and fell from the building and almost had an accident. She suspected that it was man-made. Go check it out!"
"How could this happen? Could this also be done by Wei Hong?" Secretary Wu exclaimed.
"It's possible! "Cao Mingzhou sneered with a gloomy face: "I underestimated him. This kid is simply a madman. He is not afraid of seeking death if anyone provokes him."
Seeing that he was completely angry!
Secretary Wu couldn't help but be frightened.
Thinking of Wei Hong, a handsome, gentle and elegant young man.
He couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling secretly. Who would have thought that this kid would be so crazy.
He even dared to touch Cao Junyan. He had stirred up a hornet's nest!
