Chapter 498 This Woman Is Not Ordinary
Lin Ze re-examined the rough-looking gang leader in front of him.
This gangster is very measured and shrewd in his words and deeds, and is by no means as careless as he appears.
I beat up his younger brother and razed the Datong Hotel, so they should have been enemies from then on. People in the underworld value their face the most, and even if Tong Haishan tried not to get angry today, he shouldn't have been so enthusiastic.
He is definitely not suffering from amnesia, and he must have a bigger agenda for behaving this way.
In other words, arm wrestling with Lin Ze was definitely insignificant compared to what he was about to do.
So what on earth was he here for?
Ever since Naoto Matsuzaki said that Tong Haishan came to discuss the issue of incorporation into the Security Army, Lin Ze didn't believe it from the bottom of his heart.
Song Qi and his friends were so concerned that they lost sight of one thing in the game with Tajima: Why were they discussing the issue of incorporation with the Security Army in such a high-profile manner?
Can't we talk about it in private?
Is it simply to create a big scene, generate some public opinion, and put pressure on Naoto Matsuki?
This is a life-and-death struggle, not a child's play!
Therefore, Tong Haishan came to Beiping with such a big fanfare, he must be trying to cover up something else!
"Mr. Tong, are you staying at the Oriental Hotel? To be honest, I think there is a better place. There is a restaurant in Beiping that is of high quality. If you have time, you can go and have a look."
As he spoke, Lin Ze squinted his eyes and said, "Eating, drinking and having fun, I don't want to leave!"
Tong Haishan showed a smile that every man can understand, and said cheerfully: "Hahaha, I didn't expect that you are also an expert in this field. When I go to Tianjin someday, I will definitely treat you well. But I won't enjoy myself these few days. After all... hehe..."
Chairman Wang said with a smile: "Captain Tong has set his sights on Miss Bai Die from the Oriental Hotel. As soon as he arrived, he sent flowers and advertised in newspapers. It looks like he will be able to win her heart soon!"
Lin Ze heard, Bai Die? The singer that Cheng Xigeng liked before?
It seems that this woman is quite attractive, especially popular among successful middle-aged and older men, otherwise she would not have found a boyfriend so quickly.
That day, he was so busy killing Cheng Xigeng that he didn't take a closer look at what he looked like.
He pretended to be surprised and asked, "Now, to pursue a beauty, you not only have to send flowers, but also put an ad in the newspaper?"
President Wang is an old hand at this. He smiled and pointed out, "Shengmin, you don't know this. Whether it's hanging a water sign or placing an ad in the newspaper, these are all ways to create momentum. They used to promote actors in the past, and they still use this method to promote singers now."
In fact, this is just buying soft articles to create momentum.
In the first twenty years, many tabloids in Peking made a living from this, and the earliest group of entertainment reporters were born, specializing in writing opera reviews, gossip and the like.
If you give him money, he will say that his singing is so loud that it can reach the sky and linger in the air for three days. If you don't give him money, he will say that his singing is hoarse and unpleasant to listen to, and he goes on stage without practicing well.
There was a pile of newspapers in the hotel lobby. As the home venue for Bai Die's concert, of course there were many newspapers about Bai Die displayed at the top.
Lin Ze picked up a photo at random. In the black and white photo, the woman was quite good-looking, with beautiful bone structure. She looked a bit like the International Zhang in later generations. She smiled brightly, but looked a bit worldly.
The article is not very exaggerated or flattering. It just introduces Bai Die's artistic career, when she started learning the art, how many years she studied, how many masters she followed, and how many songs she practiced. It has a sense of being a narrative.
Lin Ze casually praised: "This article is well written, not so flattering."
Tong Haishan said proudly: "I am a rough man and I don't understand what writing is, but this article was written by Miss Bai Die herself, so it should be good. Miss Bai Die is not only a good singer, but also very cultured! She was born in an official family, but her family fell into poverty later, so she made a living by performing arts."
"Then I wish Brother Tong can marry his beautiful wife soon!"
Tong Haishan said obscenely: "I'm borrowing your good words, brother, soon, soon, haha!"
After the banquet started, Bai Die came out to sing as expected. She was wearing a plain white dress, had delicate makeup, and a beautiful voice. Tong Haishan almost drooled at the sight of her and kept giving her tips.
Facing the financial sponsor, Bai Die was not stingy in trying to please him, and her eyes were full of seduction. It seemed that it wouldn't take long for these two to hook up.
The woman was originally wearing long white lace gloves, but Lin Ze had sharp eyes and noticed that there seemed to be some pattern at the base of her right hand.
When she wanted to take a closer look, Bai Die put her hands behind her back.
This woman is not as simple as she looks!
After listening to songs for a while and saying hello to everyone, Lin Ze did not stay long. He made an excuse that he had other things to do in the office and left first. Everyone came to see him off.
Before leaving, Lin Ze gave Jiao Zhenguo a wink.
In the evening, Lao Gao and Jiao Zhenguo came to the Coordination Bureau to find Lin Ze.
As soon as Lao Gao entered the office, he couldn't wait to say, "This gang leader is not simple!"
Lin Ze asked them to sit down and looked at Jiao Zhenguo.
Old Jiao was much calmer and said in a deep voice: "The people that Tong Haishan brought with him are not simple. Some of them are careless, but most of them are quite skilled. They brought six Nissans and a truck."
Lin Ze thought about it and felt that this might not be a problem. It might be that Tong Haishan was afraid of death and worried that something might happen in Peiping, so he brought so many good players.
"Did they say anything?"
Jiao Zhenguo shook his head. "Liu Tonggang didn't come at first, but he did come later. He just watched the show. They didn't go to the separate room for the meeting. It should be that they only received Tong Haishan today, and the real business will have to wait until tomorrow."
"Does Tong Haishan have more contact with anyone?"
Jiao Zhenguo thought for a moment, "When I was doing the security work in the inner field, I did notice a detail. Tong Haishan was a bit fake polite. Even when talking to Chairman Wang, he deliberately said some polite words and took the initiative to light his cigarette. But when he was chatting with an officer, the two of them were very familiar with each other, and Tong Haishan didn't deliberately let him smoke."
After that, Jiao Zhenguo added: "Of course, this is just my personal judgment. The two people did not have any contact again afterwards."
Gao Shengping interrupted, "As soon as Lao Jiao told me, I asked someone to check. The officer was the colonel director of the Archives Department of the Security Army, Qiu Gaofeng."
Oh shit!
Lin Ze already had a vague idea that Tong Haishan definitely did not come to Peking to discuss matters with the Security Forces.
Maybe he also came for the Jifu Tongzhi!
Were they trying to intercept this intelligence? However, since the meeting place was changed to Beiping, how could they be so kind as to come to Beiping to meddle in other people's business?
Looking at Jiao Zhenguo, Lin Ze suddenly said, "By the way, how is my friend's son, Duan what? How is he doing with you?"
Lin Ze said it so suddenly that Jiao Zhenguo almost shivered.
He tried to force out a normal smile, "The director had instructed me before, how could I not take it seriously? Duan Wenxuan did a good job under me and was promoted to team leader."
Lin Ze waved his hand casually, as if he had just remembered it. He didn't even raise his head, "That's good. Take good care of him. His father gave me a lot of things."
