People who cheat other people out of money to support their families are the most shameful and evil, and their actions are completely amoral and uncultured! Please leave the children's milk money and the poor people's rent alone! Chinese fraudsters get out of Brighton and return the financial sector of Brighton to a pure blue sky!
Outside the gates of Wharton, a dozen protesters remained, still holding up banners and shouting into loudspeakers at Wharton. Reporters were still filming and interviewing, and even more reporters came when they heard the news. Several security guards from the Sky Ladder Building surrounded the protesters, while the management of the Sky Ladder Building was also actively negotiating with the protesters.
'Brothers, we don't know what your conflict with Wharton is about, but this is the Sky Ladder Building, a high-end office building, and your behaviour here is seriously disrupting the normal operations of other companies here. Or you can choose to negotiate a settlement with Wharton privately, but that's not a good idea here.'
However, the troublemakers did not take the kind advice of the management of the Sky Ladder Building seriously: 'Brothers, we don't want to do this either. We have to do this for the sake of our children's milk powder and the poor people's rent. Or please get Wharton out of the Sky Ladder Building immediately!'
Such negotiations are undoubtedly meaningless and fruitless, because Zhou Ming has signed a contract with the Sky Ladder Building. If the Sky Ladder Building chooses to sell the company because a few people come to cause trouble, then what other companies will dare to enter the Sky Ladder Building in the future? Or if there are any more competing companies in the future, and they see this situation, they will also follow suit and find someone to come and cause trouble, which will cause the competitor a lot of trouble.
On the other side, these troublemakers also had their own purposes, which was to target Zhou Ming, and they were also unlikely to give up their principles.
After a while of meaningless negotiations, the management of the Sky Ladder Building found Zhou Ming and said to him, 'Mr. Zhou Ming, I think we should take some necessary coercive measures, otherwise letting them do whatever they want here will have a very bad impact.'
'No!' Lin Muqing said first, "Mr. Ram, haven't you noticed the reporters over there? If we take action rashly, it is likely to become a pretext for them, which will instead cause an even worse impact.'
The management of the Sky Ladder Building wanted to say something else, but at this time, Zhou Ming said, "Mr. Ram, we have already called the police anyway, and I believe they are already on their way here. So why don't we just wait for the police to come? Maybe that would be the best solution.'
'Maybe,' the management said.
After the manager left, Lin Muqing couldn't help but worryingly ask Zhou Ming, 'Do you think the police will really come? Why do I always have a feeling that the police won't come?'
'I've already agreed with Mr. Ram that if the police don't come after half an hour, he will authorise the building's security department to take coercive action,' said Zhou Ming, but in fact Zhou Ming still had another idea in his heart that he didn't say out loud. He had a vague feeling that maybe the best outcome would be if the police didn't come, but this feeling was very strange, so he didn't say it.
Ten minutes passed, and finally, as the elevator doors opened once again, several policemen immediately rushed out. Shortly afterwards, a dozen more policemen came rushing down the fire escape. They immediately surrounded the group of troublemakers, and a police sergeant came over to ask Zhou Ming, 'Who called the police? What exactly is the problem here?'
'Officer, I called the police. I am the administrative director of Wharton Company.'
At Zhou Ming's prompting, Julie volunteered to step forward. After all, this was a Western country, and despite all the Western media propaganda, there were fundamental differences between the various ethnic groups. And since she was white American, her report would be more convincing than that of the Chinese.
Julie pointed at the crowd of troublemakers and said, 'Perhaps it was because of the malicious intent of their competitors. They started causing trouble here half an hour ago. Not only did they slander the company, they also wrote insulting phrases and graffiti on the company's doors and walls. They even went so far as to attack our lives. This is a very malicious and criminal act!'
Zhu Li's righteous accusation made people can't help but praise her words in their hearts. After listening to her complaint, the police officer immediately led the team to the crowd causing trouble. Unlike the management of the Sky Ladder Building before, these police officers said directly, 'You have violated the federal constitution. I want you to leave immediately, otherwise we will take all necessary coercive measures!'
The police's words did not scare the rioters, but instead aroused their rebelliousness. They did not flinch, but yelled at the police, 'You money-grubbing lackeys, we are not afraid of you. If our federal constitution is meant to protect evil, then we choose to fight to the end! Use whatever coercion you want, and if you have the guts, lick your grandpa's ass with your tongue, he will be very happy!'
Facing the arrogant shouting and abuse of the rioters, these police officers didn't waste any words. With a wave of the leading officer's hand, the other police officers swarmed over.
At the same time, the security guards from the Sky Ladder Building couldn't wait to rush forward, and cooperated with the police to quickly subdue all the rioters. It didn't take more than a quarter of an hour to get them all away from the scene.
This situation made Lin Muqing let out a long sigh of relief: 'Zhou Ming, it seems that we are lucky. The Adams family did not collude with the police station against us, or rather, the one who came today was a police officer with a strong sense of justice. He did not bow to power, so these people were all arrested!'
Compared to Lin Muqing's happiness, Zhou Ming frowned instead. Indeed, it was a good thing that these troublemakers were arrested. They even hoped that the police would come and take them away directly, rather than targeting themselves. However, after the plot really developed this way, Zhou Ming seemed to feel that things were going a bit too smoothly.
'Zhou Ming, you don't seem happy. Don't you want these people to be arrested by the police?' Lin Muqing asked curiously when she saw Zhou Ming's expression.
In response, Zhou Ming smiled and replied, 'Of course not, Muqing, I just have some other issues to consider.'
Zhou Ming said this casually, because he just subconsciously felt that something was wrong, but he had no idea what had gone wrong.
Zhou Ming shook his head at this thought: 'Never mind, now these troublemakers have been taken away by the police, but our company has been made into such a mess by them. I think our top priority now is to find a way to get rid of the paint and graffiti on the front of our company.'
Lin Muqing glanced back at the entrance to the company. Although it was not as bad as the previous International Students Association, it at least did not look like a regular company.
'These damn guys, I really hate them to death!' Lin Muqing cursed.
Zhou Ming and Lin Muqing then found the management of the Sky Ladder Building. Manager Ram said, 'I'm sorry, Mr. Zhou Ming, this is not within the scope of the building's contracted cleaning, so you will have to pay separately.'
Zhou Ming was prepared for this: 'I know, you just clean, and send the invoice to the company afterwards.'
...
Almost at the same time, Christo and Robert also received news at the Park Forest Manor that the police had taken away all the rioters.
On hearing the news, Robert flew into a rage and shouted at Christo, pointing his finger in his face: 'What kind of thing is this that you've done? You originally asked someone to go to which Chinese company to cause trouble, which was a good idea, but why didn't you say hello to the police station? Even if you hate power and don't want to deal with it, you can't just let them get arrested, can you? Are you an idiot?'
Facing Robert's abuse, Christo's eyes hardened for a moment, but then eased up. He sighed and asked in return, 'I think if it were you, you would definitely find a way to get the police department to stop the police from coming and make the trouble even bigger, right?'
'Of course,' Robert said. "If I didn't plan to do that, why would I find someone to go and start trouble?'
'Then what is the purpose of your trouble-making?" Christo asked.
'Of course it's to disgust the Chinese guy. That damned guy is really hateful. If I could, I'd really kill him!' Robert said with clenched teeth.
Hearing Robert say this, Christo suddenly laughed, and he asked Robert in return, 'I doubt it. Do you really hate the Chinese guy? But why can't I feel it?'
Robert looked at Christo, as if to make sure he wasn't joking. Christo continued, 'Robert, you always say you hate the Chinese guy, but everything you do is just to annoy him, not to kill him.'
Christo thought for a moment and then continued, 'Let's say you get someone to cause trouble and then prevent the police from arriving at the scene. I admit that this will cause a lot of trouble for a company, but it's just trouble, not any substantial damage. Just like what you did before, it's completely childish and naive. Do you understand what I mean?'
Robert shrugged dismissively, 'Can you cause substantial damage to your enemies by just letting your people get taken away by the police, like Christo?'
'Why not?' asked Christo.
Robert was immediately stunned. He couldn't understand how, even though the people he had sent were all arrested, he could still cause trouble for Zhou Ming and even substantial damage. Wasn't this just wishful thinking? But although Robert had never respected Christo, he understood that Christo had the ability to become the patriarch of the Adams family, and at least he wasn't joking about this. So what was he... planning to do?
'By the way, Christo, you also kidnapped the Chinese partner. Are you going to make a fuss about that?' Robert asked.
Christo said with a headache, "They are all the richest people in their respective regions, and there are significant connections behind them. Even we cannot move them casually. Moreover, they themselves are not related to the troublemakers we sent.'
'It's not this or that. What are you going to do?" Robert asked.
In response to Robert's question, Christo sighed and told him all his plans. Robert was once again stunned, and after a long while he applauded, saying, 'This is really great! Christo, you really are a sly fellow, you've managed to engineer things to this point. The Chinese guy definitely won't expect it, he's finished!'
