The storm of electronic fraud, the day I was deceived into northern Myanmar

Two days later, I met with Ming Xiaoping at a famous high-end restaurant in the city as scheduled.

This restaurant is hidden in the busiest corner of the old street. The neon lights outside the door are in sharp contrast with the simple style of the street, making it seem like a secret garden in the city.

Its decoration is gorgeous yet stylish, and its interior design pays attention to both privacy and comfort. It is undoubtedly the best choice for business negotiations.

I arrived a little earlier than the agreed time, passed through the low-key and luxurious lobby, and was led directly to a quiet private room.

Selected art paintings are hung on the surrounding walls, and soft light is scattered through exquisite crystal chandeliers, creating a warm and elegant atmosphere.

Soon, Ming Xiaoping also arrived as scheduled.

Today, he pays special attention to his appearance. He is wearing a well-tailored dark gray suit and a burgundy tie, which makes him look particularly handsome.

"Didn't you wait too long?" Ming Xiaoping asked with concern as soon as he sat down.

I smiled and shook my head and responded: "No, I just arrived. Brother Ming, I asked you out this time because I have something important to discuss with you."

He raised his eyebrows, seeming to be interested in my topic, and motioned for me to continue.

I deliberately cleared my throat and asked in a low and cautious voice: "Brother Ming, remember last time you mentioned that you were very interested in the AI ​​face-changing technology? I wonder if your interest is still that strong?"

Hearing this, Ming Xiaoping's eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance, and he answered almost immediately: "Of course, how could I not be interested in such a potential project? Do you have new ideas?"

I nodded, lowered my voice, and said mysteriously: "Yes, Brother Ming, after this period of consideration, I have decided that I can transfer this technology to you."

"Really?!" Ming Xiaoping looked extremely excited and leaned forward involuntarily, "You are not kidding."

I smiled slightly and shook my head: "I always mean what I say. But..."

I deliberately prolonged my tone to arouse his curiosity.

"But what?" Ming Xiaoping asked eagerly, saying repeatedly: "As long as the conditions are reasonable, I can consider it."

I took a deep breath and adjusted my sitting posture to ensure that every word was clear and powerful, so that Ming Xiaoping could feel the weight of my words: "Ten million."

"Ten million?!" Ming Xiaoping was obviously shocked by this number. His face changed from surprise to disbelief in an instant, and a searching light flashed in his eyes, as if he was trying to judge whether I was serious or just just... Testing his bottom line.

"Aren't you a bit..." He tried to negotiate, perhaps looking for a more reasonable number.

I stretched out my hand to stop him, interrupting him.

My voice became firmer: "Brother Ming, you should understand that this system is not just a technology, it represents the future. Relying on this system, the Wei family has grabbed wealth from countless people and become their A cash cow. Do you think this kind of technology is worth 10 million?"

Ming Xiaoping was silent. His eyes fell on the coffee on the table, as if he was looking for answers in this small detail, and as if he was quickly weighing the pros and cons of the transaction in his mind.

The silence lasted for several seconds, and the air seemed to be filled with the sound of computer operations.

I did not disturb his thinking, but took the opportunity to add: "Moreover, Brother Ming, think about it, even if we don't do business in Lao Cai, this system has huge market potential in the world. The licensing fee alone is enough to make you come back." You can even make huge profits. Moreover, with such technology, wouldn’t the business areas you want to expand be within reach?”

Ming Xiaoping's eyes finally moved away from the table and locked in my eyes.

I saw the fire in his eyes, the desire for unknown possibilities, the desire to control the future.

"Okay, I promise you!" He finally said this through gritted teeth, "Ten million is ten million. But how to proceed with this transaction?"

I smiled softly, with a bit of relief and victory in my smile: "First arrange for someone to build a computer room, the sooner the better. When the computer room is ready, I will personally be responsible for transplanting the system there. After everything is installed and debugged, you can transfer the funds into my account in the form of Bitcoin. This way, it is safe and efficient. How about it?"

Ming Xiaoping nodded, seeming to be quite satisfied with my proposal: "No problem. I will make arrangements for the computer room immediately. But aren't you worried about Wei Rong?"

I smiled easily and replied: "Brother Ming, when things are done, I will naturally be yours. With you protecting me, what else do I have to worry about?"

Ming Xiaoping laughed loudly, his voice echoing in the box. He patted me hard on the shoulder: "You kid, you are so cunning! Don't worry, follow me. I will make sure you thrive in the old street."

In our relaxed and pleasant atmosphere, Ming Xiaoping and I chatted for a while. It wasn't until the evening breeze began to bring a chill that I stood up to say goodbye and left the restaurant.

When I returned to the company, I went straight to the technical department and found Zhou Yang.

"Zhou Yang, have you decided on the person?" I asked straight to the point.

Zhou Yang nodded and said mysteriously: "Follow me, and I will take you to see him."

I followed Zhou Yang to a remote office.

When I pushed the door open, I saw an Indian man typing on the keyboard quickly in front of the computer.

"This is Ajie, the ace engineer of our technical department." Zhou Yang introduced.

Ajie raised his head when he heard the sound, smiled shyly at me and said in broken Chinese: "Hello, Mr. Yang."

I looked at this Indian guy.

He looked to be in his early twenties, with a pair of glasses on his thin face and a bookish air.

"Ajie was brought up by me." Zhou Yang said proudly, "In terms of technology, he ranks among the top three in our company. Leave this system transplant to him, and there will be no problem."

I nodded and patted Ajie on the shoulder: "Ajie, you have to handle this matter for me."

Ajie nodded firmly: "Don't worry, Mr. Yang, I won't let you down."

After explaining Ajie, I returned to my office.

As soon as he sat down, Chang Jianlin knocked on the door and came in.

"Boss, everything has been arranged." Chang Jianlin said excitedly, "Brothers are all our own, all of them are very skilled and loyal. When the time comes, we will definitely execute that bastard He Hong on the spot!"

I nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, thank you for your hard work. Let's go take a look at it together tonight to make sure nothing goes wrong."

"No problem, boss, I'll take care of it!" Chang Jianlin said confidently.

After seeing Chang Jianlin off, I leaned back in my chair and let out a long sigh of relief.

All the chess pieces are in place, and now it’s time to wait for the opportunity to close the net.

He Hong, just wait.

This time, I must make you disappear without a trace in the old street!

As for Ming Xiaoping, I’m not worried.

And Wei Rong...I was a little hesitant.

After all, the Wei family gave me a lot of help during this period.

Once this matter is exposed, the Wei family will definitely cause trouble for me.

But I can't control so much now, and even if I don't do this, if Wei Rong agrees to cooperate with He Hong, I won't be able to escape.

I don’t think Wei Rong will still stand by me when the time comes.

There is no retreat now.

Either I surrender, or I take risks!

Outside the window, the setting sun was like blood, covering the entire old street in fiery red.

I stood up, walked to the window, and looked at this familiar yet unfamiliar land.

Goodbye, Old Street.

I'm destined not to belong here!
