proud of the official way

Seeing the surprised look on Li Zecheng's face, Lin Yan smiled lightly, and said calmly, "Mr. Li, do you feel a little surprised?"

"Oh, it's a bit of a surprise.

What a hero out of a boy...

Unexpectedly, the changes in the mainland system are so fast, it is no longer the era of ranking seniority, and young people also have the opportunity to rise to the top. "

Li Zecheng smiled slightly and said calmly.

The Lingnan Office in Hong Kong has been established for more than ten years, and every director of the Office in Hong Kong has come to visit.

However, most of the directors of the Hong Kong Office are middle-aged people in their 40s, and all of them are veterans of the officialdom.

The appearance of Lin Yan made Li Zecheng's eyes brighten up.

According to Li Zecheng's judgment, Lin Yan is at most in his early twenties and should have just left school.

Such a young kid, not to mention the mainland where seniority is ranked, even Hong Kong Island, which is fully marketized, is rare.

However, what Li Zecheng said lightly, he had already reached a conclusion in his heart.

The Lingnan Office in Hong Kong is a department-level unit, and it is absolutely impossible for a low-level child without any background to rise to the top.

Don't think too much, this son must be the second generation, relying on the energy of the family, to go to the local area to increase his qualifications.

Li Zecheng nodded slightly. For such a young man to be able to preside over the work of the Lingnan Office in Hong Kong, the energy of his family must be quite strong.

This young man's surname is Lin. Could it be that he is a descendant of the Lin family?

Within the Huaxia system, the Lin family definitely has such strength.

Finding that Li Zecheng's words and deeds were clearly inconsistent, Lin Yan smiled lightly.

It's no wonder that as a dark horse in the system, he was promoted a bit too fast, which surprised the capitalists.

From Li Zecheng's expression, Lin Yan could clearly see something strange.

Hearing Li Zecheng's judgment, Lin Yan said calmly: "Mr. Li, in fact, I am only the deputy director of the Hong Kong Office, temporarily presiding over the work of the Hong Kong Office.

Moreover, my deputy director is also highly qualified..."

Lin Yan did not hide anything, let alone any vanity, and truthfully introduced his level.

Li Zecheng nodded while listening.

It is also very rare for a young man who has just graduated from school to get a high-ranking department in just over a year.

"Director Lin, can I ask a personal question?"

Li Zecheng said calmly.

Lin Yan smiled lightly and said, "Of course..."

Li Zecheng looked Lin Yan up and down, smiled and said, "Director Lin, who is your father? We may have met before."

As soon as Lin Yan entered, Li Zecheng felt familiar.

However, Li Zecheng can be sure that he has never seen Lin Yan before.

Lin Jianguo, as the deputy secretary of the Lingnan Provincial Party Committee, met with Li Zecheng many times, and Li Zecheng was naturally very impressed.

With Li Zecheng's ability, if Lin Jianguo was present, they would definitely be able to confirm their relationship immediately.

However, without seeing Lin Jianguo, Li Zecheng just felt that Lin Yan looked a little familiar, but he remembered who he resembled.

Hearing Li Zecheng's question, the deputy director who accompanied Lin Yan also raised his ears, ready to get some dry goods.

Within the system, the most important thing is the identity background.

A person advances normally, and everyone has to speculate about the background behind this person.

What's more, Lin Yan is like a rocket, and has been continuously promoted by leapfrogging, which has become the focus of everyone's attention.

According to the information received by the staff of the Hong Kong Office, Lin Yan was able to take over because Liang Zhenxing, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee, personally appointed him.

The reason why Liang Zhenxing promoted Lin Yan was because Lin Yan was in love with his daughter and was the future son-in-law.

However, here comes the problem.

The status of the Liang family is there, and the person who can become the son-in-law of the Liang family will definitely not be an ordinary person, let alone the Phoenix man.

According to gossip in the market, Lin Yan is an abandoned child who was brought up by an old Taoist since he was a child.

Lin Yan's background was quickly denied by everyone.

Such a version is simply an insult to everyone's IQ!

With the Liang family's status, would they fall in love with an outcast?

In this regard, everyone's imagination is very rich.

Regarding Lin Yan's identity, five or six versions were quickly deduced.

Of course, there are many of them that are closest to the truth. It is said that Lin Yan is a close relative of the Lin family.

The deputy director could naturally realize that facing Li Zecheng's inquiry, Lin Yan would definitely not be able to evade it, let alone fabricate his life experience, and could only tell the truth.

Moreover, for the second generation, it is also a strategy to reveal their identities in an appropriate manner at certain appropriate times.

Lin Yan never thought that Li Zecheng would ask such a question.

Obviously, Li Zecheng already suspected that he must have a mysterious background.

Lin Yan smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Li, I am an outcast, raised by Taoist Qingyangzi since childhood..."

Even though he already knew who his parents were, due to various practical considerations, Lin Yan could only show himself as an abandoned child.

This is obviously a lie, but, after all, the reality is so, Lin Yan has no choice but to do so.

However, Lin Yan keenly felt that he was obviously not confident enough to introduce this kind of life experience now.

"Oh... so it's so rare..."

Li Zecheng nodded slightly and said meaningfully.

However, people at Li Zecheng's level will not easily believe in stories.

An outcast who was adopted by an old Taoist without any foundation, yet managed to rise to the top quickly?

What kind of mystery is in it, I am afraid only the person concerned will understand it.

Since Lin Yan was very secretive about this, Li Zecheng couldn't keep asking.

Lin Yan's visit to Li Zecheng this time is a courtesy call.

After all, the Li family has too much influence on Hong Kong Island, and the Hong Kong Office wants to gain a foothold on Hong Kong Island, which is a hurdle that cannot be spared.

While talking with Li Zecheng, Lin Yan was thinking about how to mention the Bank of China Building.

Liang Zhu Advertising Media was going to cooperate with the Bank of China Building, but they refused.

Lin Yan has already promised Zhu Xinran that he will coordinate with Li Zecheng when he meets Li Zecheng.

However, before Lin Yan got involved in this issue, the phone on Li Zecheng's desk rang.

Li Zecheng signaled to the secretary to answer the phone.

The secretary nodded slightly, went to the desk and picked up the phone.

"What... just wait a moment, I will report to the doctor right away..."

The phone was connected, and the secretary answered the phone, and his face turned pale with shock.

Lin Yan was slightly taken aback.

The members of the Li family have all seen the big world, and they lost their composure in front of the guests, obviously something big happened.

Seeing the secretary's actions, Li Zecheng frowned.

Regardless of Li Zecheng's expression, the secretary walked quickly to Li Zecheng's side and whispered something in his ear.

"What? Third..."

Hearing the situation reported by the secretary, Li Zecheng was so shocked that he almost stood up and blurted out.

It's just that there are outsiders here, and Li Zecheng didn't lose his composure too much.

"Mr. Lin, I'm really sorry. I need to deal with some personal matters. I can only stop here today..."

Li Zecheng forced a little smile, and started to push people out.

Li Zecheng was taken aback by the sudden disaster.

After adjusting his emotions a little, although he appeared calm on the surface, Li Zecheng was already in a mess inside.

Although he has struggled in the business world for most of his life and became the richest man on Hong Kong Island, he has seen too many storms.

However, this is the first time Li Zecheng has encountered this problem.

Lin Yan keenly noticed that there was already a layer of thin beads of sweat on Li Zecheng's face.

This is obviously cold sweat.

Needless to say, the Li family must have encountered extremely difficult things.

From Li Zecheng's slip of the tongue just now, Lin Yan has obtained an important message.

Something happened to the youngest of the Li family.

For the Li family, as long as it can be solved by money, it is absolutely nothing.

Could it be that Li Jiayong had a car accident?

"Mr. Li, you don't have to be polite, it's okay...

If I have a chance in the future, I will visit Mr. Lin again. "

Lin Yan smiled lightly, got up and said goodbye.

Just as the guests were sent away here, Li Zecheng hurried to answer the phone and was almost stumbled.

"Third, how are you doing now?"

Li Zecheng asked eagerly.

"Dad, I was kidnapped, and they asked me to report my family's safety..."

Li Jiayong's voice came from the phone, full of fear and exhaustion.

Hearing the voice of his precious son, Li Zecheng felt dizzy.

Li Zecheng has three sons in total, and this youngest son is his favorite.

Now that she is kidnapped, it is absolutely ominous!

Li Zecheng took a deep breath, stabilized his emotions a little, and said distressedly: "My third brother, don't be afraid, with Dad here, you will be fine..."

However, before Li Zecheng finished speaking, Li Jiayong's phone was taken away.

"Mr. Li, when is this, and your father and son are still here to show their affection?

Your son is in my hands. If you don't want him to die, immediately prepare a ransom of one billion Hong Kong dollars...

Remember, you are not allowed to call the police, if you dare to call the police, we will tear up the ticket immediately..."

There was a vicious voice on the phone.

"Who are you?"

Li Zecheng hurriedly asked.

"Who? Can't tell you yet.

After this transaction is completed, we will become friends, and we will definitely let you know when the time comes. "

The other party said jokingly.

Li Zecheng gritted his teeth and said sternly, "I agree to your conditions, and I will prepare the ransom right away, and I will not call the police.

However, you must keep your word and ensure the safety of my son..."

The other party laughed and said, "Mr. Li, don't worry.

We're in this business for money, not for killing people.

However, if you don't know how to praise and don't cooperate with our actions, then don't blame us for being cruel.

As long as you keep your promise, we will keep your promise too.

By the way, there is one more thing I need to tell you.

With your son, there is also a beautiful woman, who should be your son's girlfriend.

We are not greedy, so we offered this woman [-] million yuan.

Please tell the beauty's parents and ask them to prepare the reward immediately. The same conditions apply, and they are not allowed to call the police.

Of course, Mr. Li has a lot of money, so if we hand over the ransom, we will naturally welcome it.

After all, this beautiful woman is your son's girlfriend, and she may be your Li family's daughter-in-law in the future, so she should spend a little money..."

And a woman?

Li Zecheng suddenly frowned into a big pimple.

Li Zecheng still knows his son very well, and he has no definite girlfriend yet.

Could it be that my precious son just made a girlfriend?

Li Zecheng didn't know the other party's identity, so naturally he couldn't tell the other party's parents.

However, this matter is not Li Zecheng's first consideration. How to get his son out of danger is the most important thing.

After hanging up the phone, Li Zecheng felt his mind went blank.

At the level of the Li family, no one can beat them in the business field. Making money or losing money is just a numbers game.

What scares them the most is naturally the kidnapping of their family members.

A ransom of 10 billion yuan is just a drop in the bucket for the Li family.

However, things are not that simple.

In the past three years, there have been four kidnapping cases of rich people on Hong Kong Island. Although the family members paid the ransom, they were still torn up and no one survived.

Talking about credit with the kidnappers is simply too naive.

Once such a thing is encountered, the final outcome is often a shortage of talents.

"Doctor, what should we do? Should we call the police immediately?"

The secretary hurriedly asked for instructions.

Li Zecheng forced his eyes into silence for a few seconds, then shook his head slightly.

Li Zecheng knew in his heart that once he called the police, his precious son would be on the point of no return.

If you don't call the police and quickly raise the ransom, maybe the kidnappers will find out with their conscience, and a miracle will happen.

"Don't call the police, let alone spread the news.

Immediately raise one billion Hong Kong dollars, wait for news from the kidnappers, and be ready to redeem people at any time...

Also, notify Jiaqi and Jiazheng immediately, and ask them to come to my office immediately for an urgent discussion..."

Li Zecheng gave instructions to the secretary.

The secretary agreed, and quickly started to carry out the task.

After Lin Yan left Xiangjiang Industry, he returned to the Beijing Office soon.

After returning to his office, Lin Yan felt a little curious, what happened to the third son of the Li family?

Judging from Li Zecheng's reaction, something must have happened.

Li Jiayong and Qin Xue are classmates,

Perhaps Qin Xue should know something about what happened to Li Jiayong.

If in the past, Lin Yan only needed to call Qin Xue, he could ask about it.

However, since he rejected Qin Xue's confession that day, Lin Yan deliberately distanced himself from Qin Xue and prepared to deal with this matter coldly.

It is obviously inappropriate to call Qin Xue now and ask about Li Jiayong.

Lin Yan hesitated for a moment, but finally gave up on this plan.

Just after signing a document, Lin Yan's phone rang.

Lin Yan took the phone and saw that it was Qin Xue's number.

Lin Yan shook his head and smiled, could it be that he had a good understanding?

Although Lin Yan rejected Qin Xue, the two were still friends after all.

Qin Xue took the initiative to call, and Lin Yan naturally answered.

"Hey, Qin Xue..."

Lin Yan pressed the answer button and said calmly.

"Are you Lin Yan? Qin Xue and Li Jiayong are in our hands now.

The Li family has agreed to use 10 billion Hong Kong dollars to make acquaintances.

However, the Li family is unwilling to pay for Qin Xue, so they have to trouble you.

You immediately prepare a ransom of [-] million yuan, and don't call the police.

Otherwise, we will tear up the ticket, and you just wait for the body to be collected! "

A man's voice came from the phone, full of murderous intent.

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment.

Was Qin Xue kidnapped, or did she and Li Jiayong extort 2 million yuan in ransom?

Lin Yan was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that this didn't look like a joke.

From this point of view, Li Jiayong was also kidnapped, no wonder the Li family was in such a panic.

However, Lin Yan was puzzled again, how could Qin Xue be with Li Jiayong?

Li Jiayong is pursuing Qin Xue crazily, but it is a pity that Qin Xue has no feelings for him.

Especially that night, Lin Yan's preparation for the beauty of adulthood aroused Qin Xue's rebellious character even more, and made him even more disgusted with Li Jiayong.

"Who are you, how did you find me here?"

Lin Yan asked calmly.

The other party sneered, and said impatiently: "Who are we? I can't tell you yet.

How to find you, this is very simple, we found it from Qin Xue's phone.

In the beauty's phone book, you are marked as your husband. If we don't look for you, who will we look for?

Mr. Lin, I have to say that this beauty is very courageous, at least a hundred times stronger than Li Jiayong.

We just frightened Li Jiayong a few words, and this guy obediently called home.

Qin Xue is very courageous, no matter how intimidating we are, she just doesn't want to cooperate with us and won't make a phone call to her family.

Is there no way, only we can do it ourselves.

In Qin Xue's phone book, we did not find her parents' phone numbers.

We have no choice but to call you, let you tell her parents...

Mr. Lin, don't play other tricks on us. Raising money to save talents is the kingly way.

Our patience is limited, don't let us down.

Brothers are really reluctant to bear such a beautiful girl..."

Hearing the situation introduced by the kidnapper, Lin Yan felt mixed feelings in his heart.

Lin Yan didn't expect that in Qin Xue's heart, his position would be like this.

Now it is not about how Qin Xue was kidnapped, but about how to save her.

"Listen to me, money is not a problem.

I can promise you that I will raise the ransom immediately and I will not call the police.

However, Qin Xue's safety must be guaranteed.

If you dare to touch Qin Xue's hair, I will make it seem like you have no place to die..."

Lin Yan played hard and soft, and began to communicate with the kidnappers.

Hearing what Lin Yan said, the kidnapper couldn't help laughing.

"Hehe, it's really interesting! No wonder Qin Xue has a husband like you, you are all top-notch.

Since I debuted, I have done countless businesses, and my family members received our calls, which one is not begging.

It was the first time I heard anyone dare to threaten us.

Well, since you know the rules, we don't want to make things difficult for you...

I will give you three days to redeem people with money.

As for how to exchange, you make sure to call normally, and we will contact you again..."

Lin Yan understood Qin Xue very well and understood that she would not call home.

Qin Xue's parents are low-level citizens in Jeju, and her father is a disabled person.

If you tell them this news, it will only scare them. How can they have the ability to raise money to save people?

Lin Yan held a special place in Qin Xue's heart. When Qin Xue was in trouble, the little Taoist priest would naturally not stand idly by.

Qin Xue and Li Jiayong were kidnapped together, and Lin Yan needed to communicate and negotiate with the Li family to work in unison to deal with the kidnappers.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Yan didn't think much, and immediately left the Hong Kong Office and drove straight to the headquarters of Heung Kong Industries.
