Chapter 2400: I am among you, and you are among me

Lin Bai had a different view on this, saying: "Who said that? Investigation is not about drinking tea. We are all in the center of the storm, how can it be that easy?"

Zheng Qiudong said: "The key is to see whether Luo Yiren has committed any illegal acts in the operation of Zhongbao Media."

Lin Bai sneered and said, "It doesn't matter whether there is one or not. Zhongbao's background may be questionable. Such a big company has sprung up out of nowhere. Where did Luo Yi get so much money? State-owned enterprise projects are lined up for them. What's the point?"

"It's just that Shan Gu was lucky. Before the company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange, it was still negotiating a merger with Zhongbao. Fortunately, the deal didn't go through. According to gossip, Chairman Meng received a hint from Luo Yiren that he had hit a snag, and then Shan Gu announced the failure of the merger."

Zheng Qiudong frowned and said, "I have seen such rumors on the Internet. If the merger is successful, then Luo Yiren will be a disaster for the valley. I think it's not that Luo Yiren and Meng Zijing failed to reach an agreement, but that she had foresight and backed out. Luo Yiren is a righteous person in her bones."

Lin Bai looked at Zheng Qiudong jokingly and said, "Oh, it seems that you and Luo Yiren have some connection, or remote connection. The person in charge of finance at our headquarters said that he was sure that Luo Yiren had heard negative rumors about Minister Xia in advance, and that she was doomed, so he rejected Meng Zijing out of righteousness. Remember, our director used the phrase 'reject with courtesy', and you used 'foresight and righteousness'. It seems that this is the truth, great minds think alike."

Zheng Qiudong said: "No matter how good Luo Yiren is at doing business, she is not the kind of person who only cares about money. When I was at my lowest point, she helped me out twice, both times with money, and it was not a small amount."

"Given your previous relationship, this is normal."

Zheng Qiudong said, "No, no, just because you have family and affection, you can be generous and help others? You think too simply. Now there are more counterexamples, where people turn against each other and become enemies. Luo Yiren is not such a person. She is a person who helps the world when she is rich and takes care of herself when she is poor."

Lin Bai said: "It seems that the passionate Xiong Qingchun still can't drive away the Luo Yi in your heart."

Zheng Qiudong said, "Lin Bai, you know clearly that I have Xiong Qingchun in my heart, but that does not prevent me from evaluating Luo Yiren."

Lin Bai smiled and said, "Of course I know, but it's a pity that you two are not destined to be together. You know, before Roy was taken away for investigation, he called someone, a person you would never have thought of."

Zheng Qiudong was actually a little curious and asked, "Who is it?"

"Zhao Shucheng!"

"Is it him? They shouldn't have had much interaction, right? Why did you call him? Is he also involved in Xia Jiguo's affairs?"

"Of course not. Both our headquarters and the valley have conducted investigations. Zhao Shucheng's headhunting company has no connection with Xia Jiguo, and he doesn't even have much contact with Luo Yiren. But the last call was made to Zhao Shucheng, which has become a mystery to many people."

After hearing this, Zheng Qiudong was silent for a while and said, "Maybe it's just a coincidence, or maybe they had some kind of cooperation before. All my connections in Beijing are gone, and I don't know who to ask. You should help me find out about her. I really can't let her go."

Lin Bai said, "I will. I am also concerned about them." Then Lin Bai hesitated, coughed, and said:

"I have a business deal for you to consider. You don't have to answer me within a week."

When Zheng Qiudong heard Lin Bai say this, he also felt something strange in his heart and said, "Your appearance always brings me anomalies. What happened this time?"

In the end, Lin Bai told Zheng Qiudong what Yuan Kun had asked him to do, and told Zheng Qiudong exactly how the immigration company found Yuan Kun and what Zheng Qiudong needed to do.

Zheng Qiudong finally reacted and said, "So, the third-party subsidy in my card was given by this immigration company?"

"Exactly. It was kept secret at the time."

"Not now?"

"It's not a secret anymore, but it's still your personal privacy."

Zheng Qiudong said, "I see. I also work for this immigration company, but I work secretly. I work for Mediterranean Bank openly."

"Your explanation is much clearer."

Zheng Qiudong said: "I always thought that third-party subsidies were for tax evasion, but now it seems that I was wrong."

Lin Bai said: "That's not wrong, it's just a business operation technique."

Zheng Qiudong said thoughtfully: "It is impossible for this immigration company to pay me for nothing. Is it time to reveal the truth now?"

"That's what I want to talk to you about. The parent company behind this immigration company has a big background. You know, information and data are crucial for those who provide services now."

Zheng Qiudong said directly: "You want to steal data from the Mediterranean Bank?"

"Since you have disrupted the order of our conversation, I have nothing to regret admitting. I will skip the introduction and start from the middle. I can tell you responsibly that a lot of the data in the database of the Mediterranean Bank you serve was stolen from other places. All such institutions are included, and they have similar operations. Your statement of stealing is obviously a misnomer."

Lin Bai glanced at Zheng Qiudong and continued, "Let's not talk about this term for now. The data from various companies are aggregated together, and this is called a platform. In the entire consumer service landscape, information and data are rolling in many formal and rigorous institutions, and the more they roll, the bigger they get. This is a good thing for customers, as it means that the potential service level is being enriched and the service team is expanding. The bad thing is that if this data falls into the hands of illegal users, it will become a scandal."

"Have you watched the 315 Party? The data and information of 150 million mid- to high-end customers are flying in the sky like dandelions. They are truly operating on the industry platform. They are all tacit, serious, and of course commonplace."

Zheng Qiudong said: "If it's not stealing, then what do you call my behavior?"

"One link of resource sharing is data transfer."

Zheng Qiudong said: "This statement cannot convince me."

If it was Zheng Qiudong who had just come out, he might have really been tempted, but the previous incident with the fake Qin Fei had already taught Zheng Qiudong a profound lesson, making him realize that there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and no matter how well one conceals something, it will be exposed inadvertently.

What's more, no matter how nicely Lin Bai said, what he was asked to do was essentially stealing trade secrets, which was fraud and had a great criminal risk. This made Zheng Qiudong very resistant, and he didn't want his current peaceful life to be disrupted.

However, Lin Bai is still trying to persuade Zheng Qiudong to break away from the framework of good and bad business values. This behavior is just a common opportunistic model of resource sharing in business and is not a crime at all.

Zheng Qiudong was gradually convinced by Lin Bai and was somewhat moved.

Lin Bai saw that Zheng Qiudong was tempted, and immediately proposed that Zheng Qiudong could enjoy 30% of the huge profits alone, and guaranteed that his behavior was not illegal, but only violated the member management regulations of the Mediterranean Bank.

Of course, Lin Bai was also very clear that haste makes waste, so he did not let Zheng Qiudong make a decision in person. Instead, he asked Zheng Qiudong to think about it for a week and then give him an answer.

Zheng Qiudong agreed verbally, but when he separated from Lin Bai, he immediately asked Hui Chenggong, who was waiting outside, to follow Lin Bai to see where he went and who he met. At the same time, Lin Bai also asked someone to follow Zheng Qiudong, obviously worried about Zheng Qiudong.

Although the two people still pretended to be friends, once their own interests were involved, they immediately became wary of each other.

Ju Wei was going to leave the capital and return to the Magic City, and somehow told Zhao Shucheng about it.

After Zhao Shucheng found out, although he was surprised why Ju Wei told him, he still agreed to see her off at the airport.

At the airport, Zhao Shucheng watched Ju Wei enter the boarding gate, but his mind was thinking about the last time he came here to see a client off and met Lin Bai here.

However, Zhao Shucheng did not realize that there was actually someone watching him not far away. The person was Zhong Huailan, Luo Yiren's lawyer and Luo Yiren's best friend.

She had a very good relationship with Luo Yiren, so she naturally knew that Luo Yiren treated Zhao Shucheng differently, but when she saw Zhao Shucheng sending a woman away, she felt a little sorry for her best friend.

Thinking of her best friend Luo Yiren who was still assisting in the investigation, the current situation was not clear at all, and the person she liked was seeing off another woman, Zhong Huailan felt a little uncomfortable. But thinking of Luo Yiren marrying Xia Jiguo, even if Luo Yiren wanted to be with Zhao Shucheng, it would not be that easy, and she could only feel a little regretful that they met at the wrong time.

Zheng Qiudong was struggling at this moment. He told Xiong Qingchun what Lin Bai asked him to do. He thought Xiong Qingchun would disagree, but he didn't care. He even said that this situation was very common. His ex-boyfriend was doing data analysis in the UK. What's more, the 170,000 yuan share Zheng Qiudong got was a big temptation for the two who wanted to buy a house and get married.

However, Zheng Qiudong and Xiong Qingchun didn't know that their conversation was heard by Hui Chenggong who was eavesdropping outside the door, and he told Jia Yime everything.

The next day.

Zheng Qiudong, who was at work, looked at the surveillance cameras everywhere in the building and felt uneasy. But his boss Bi Yijie happened to be on a business trip and would not be back until the weekend. He gave Zheng Qiudong the task of receiving Ms. Smith, the representative of the French-Austrian Trade Consortium, and even gave Zheng Qiudong his office key because Ms. Smith had to see an important document tomorrow, making it easier for Zheng Qiudong to steal data.

Zheng Qiudong suddenly felt that the right time, right place and right people were all on his side, as if they were facilitating the transfer of his data.

While Zheng Qiudong was still struggling, Lin Bai called Zheng Qiudong to have lunch with him, intending to introduce Yuan Kun to Zheng Qiudong and let Yuan Kun personally persuade Zheng Qiudong.

Zheng Qiudong hesitated for a moment, but still agreed to meet with Yuan Kun.

At the dinner table, Lin Bai and Yuan Kun worked together to persuade Zheng Qiudong, and Yuan Kun readily agreed to all the conditions proposed by Zheng Qiudong, which undoubtedly made Zheng Qiudong even more conflicted.

Faced with Yuan Kun's inducement of profit and Lin Bai's appeal to emotion, Zheng Qiudong's inner struggle became more intense, but the lesson four years ago was too profound, so he dared not and did not want to do anything that would be discovered.

Yuan Kun saw Zheng Qiudong's worry and said, "Being afraid of being discovered doesn't mean that everything is bad. Besides, there are things in this world that will never be discovered."

Zheng Qiudong was unable to refute Yuan Kun for a moment, but his expression looked a little strange. He thought of his previous impersonation.

Lin Bai naturally noticed that something was wrong with Zheng Qiudong, and quickly interrupted him, saying, "You still have to make your own decision on this matter. In fact, it's still a question of trust between us. Does Xiong Qingchun know about this?"

Zheng Qiudong was stunned for a moment and said, "What's the matter? You mentioned the bank's matter. I have discussed it with her. She has the same opinion as you. She thinks that stealing data is not a big deal."

Yuan Kun said: "Women are intuitive animals, you should trust her. And if you still want to continue working at Mediterranean Bank, our special hunting team can take your case."

Zheng Qiudong finally wavered and said, "Okay, I'll try."

At the same time, when Xiong Qingchun was browsing information online, he saw the news that Xia Jiguo and Luo Yiren had gotten into trouble, and he was shocked.

Through inquiries, she found the phone number of the Zhongbao Media Law Firm and contacted Zhong Huailan pretending to be from the TV station's art department, hoping to find out any news about Luo Yiren.

But at such a sensitive moment, Zhong Huailan was very wary of anyone who wanted to find out about Luo Yiren, so she asked about some news about the TV station on the phone, but Xiong Qingchun knew nothing about it and was quickly exposed.

Xiong Qingchun had no choice but to call Zheng Qiudong and tell him the news about Luo Yiren's accident. Unexpectedly, Zheng Qiudong acted as if it was none of his business and asked Xiong Qingchun not to inquire about Luo Yiren's affairs anymore.

This surprised Xiong Qingchun a little. After all, she knew very well the position that Luo Yiren held in Zheng Qiudong's heart, but why did she seem to not care at all now?

Of course, she hoped that Zheng Qiudong had forgotten Luo Yiren because he liked her, but her intuition told her that things were not as simple as they seemed.

Of course, Zhong Huailan was also very worried about Luo Yiren, so she went to visit Luo Yiren who was undergoing investigation in the guesthouse as Luo Yiren's personal lawyer.

When she saw Luo Yiren appear, she couldn't believe that the person in front of her was her best friend Luo Yiren.

"long time no see!"

"long time no see!"

Luo Yiren said, "Without a mirror, I look very haggard, right?"

"No, she's cool and still a goddess."

Luo Yiren said: "It's harsh to hear such words in a place like this. I didn't expect that we would meet in a place like this."

Zhong Huailan said, "Life is unpredictable. Fortunately, your character has not changed. I have asked about it and I will assist in the investigation. Yiren, thank you for your trust in letting me be your lawyer."

"You're welcome. Life is unpredictable. Have you read all the materials?"

Zhong Huailan looked at Luo Yiren and said, "I saw it and was shocked. I thought I saw it wrongly."

"What do you mean?"

"You're not married to Xia Jiguo?"

Luo Yiren smiled and said, "I have never told anyone that I am marrying him. It was spread by others. I know how many people want me to marry him." (End of this chapter)
