The film and television city starts from the courtyard

He Mei looked at Li Yuanchao in confusion and asked, "I don't quite understand. Wasn't Zhong Yuemin specially invited by you, Mr. Li? If you don't trust him, you can just not use him."

Li Yuanchao smiled and said, "That's true, but if I don't use Zhong Yuemin, it will be my loss. As long as he is willing to work, he is very capable. For very capable people, we need to monitor them. Your task is to monitor Zhong Yuemin for me and the group. You don't understand the other point."

He Mei said: "My job is Zhong Yuemin's secretary."

"Personal secretary!"

"How close?"

"Intimate! The work of the Trade Department is not done in the office, but at banquets, in cars, on airplanes. And..."

He Mei frowned after hearing this and said, "But as far as I know, Zhong Yuemin already has a girlfriend. What is the price for me to be a substitute secretary?"

"Get my respect!"

In fact, the reason why Li Yuanchao let Zhong Yuemin join the company's trade department was, on the one hand, that he valued Zhong Yuemin's ability, and on the other hand, he hoped to further contact Zhao Shucheng through Zhong Yuemin.

Everyone else had only a vague idea about Zhao Shucheng's business empire, but only when they reached the level of general manager of a large group like Li Yuanchao did they know that the restaurant was just a cover for Zhao Shucheng's business empire. On the contrary, Zhao Shucheng had more industries outside and even had considerable connections at home and abroad.

Zhao Shucheng didn't know that Li Yuanchao was plotting against him. He had been busy with the factory and doing business with others. Seeing that 1987 was approaching, Zhao Shucheng naturally had to prepare early and make a big profit so that he could have nothing to do.

That day, Zhang Haiyang called Zhao Shucheng and said that he wanted to invite some old friends in Beijing to get together.

Zhao Shucheng agreed without thinking and went to the party with two bottles of wine.

While eating, Zhou Xiaobai raised his glass and said, "Come on, let's drink to celebrate Yuemin finding a job."

After everyone raised their glasses, Zheng Tong said:

"Either he is a Leap Citizen or he doesn't do it. If he does, he will be a big consortium. Why should we worry about him in the future?"

Jiang Biyun said, "Yuemin, now that you've found a job, it's time to get married. You're the only one among us who's still single."

Zhang Haiyang said: "This man is like wine, the longer he keeps it, the better it gets."

"It depends on how long the wine has been stored. Wine that's too old can't be drunk. I think my wine is about to expire."

Zhang Haiyang and Zhou Xiaobai both care about Zhong Yuemin, but their starting points and thoughts are different.

Zheng Tong inadvertently mentioned Zhao Shucheng's emotional problems and asked him what he was thinking.

Zhao Shucheng smiled and said, "It just so happens that everyone is here. He Xiaoping and I are getting married. The wedding date is set for next month. Everyone should come."

Others did not expect Zhao Shucheng to say this, and they were all curious about why Zhao Shucheng decided so quickly. They were even more curious about why Zhao Shucheng was going to marry He Xiaoping, and not Qin Ling, who they had assumed.

After Zhong Yuemin learned that Zhao Shucheng and He Xiaoping were planning to get married, he contacted Qin Ling by phone and made an appointment to meet.

Qin Ling hesitated for a moment and agreed.

Zhong Yuemin looked at Qin Ling and said, "Qin Ling, you know, I have been looking for you for more than ten years."

Qin Ling said, "I know, Yuemin, you are still the same, but much more mature. How have you been these years?"

"I served in the army for more than ten years and retired. How are you?"

"I'm fine. Ning Wei helped me get out of Baidian Village and join the dance troupe. After I left the troupe, I went to Ning Wei. You know what happened next."

Zhong Yuemin said, "But I heard that Ning Wei is going to marry He Xiaoping. Let me ask you an impolite question. Are you still single?"

"There's nothing I can't answer. I think you'll ask me this question sooner or later, and I should tell you. I'm not married yet, and I may not plan to get married in the future, but I'm not single."

"So you're just going to follow Ning Wei without any status? If you need, I can talk to Ning Wei. He shouldn't treat you like this."

Qin Ling smiled and said, "It's not a matter of should or shouldn't. The relationship between us is something that can't be explained. Besides, we have discussed all this. Maybe one day I fall in love with someone else and I can just leave."

"So there's no hope for me, is there?"

Qin Ling nodded and said, "Yes."

"How can I know why? When you didn't agree to my request in Baidian Village, I could understand that you didn't have confidence in me, but now we are both in the capital, so why can't we..."

Qin Ling interrupted Zhong Yuemin and said, "Yuemin, you can't force feelings. I admit that we got along very well in northern Shaanxi, but it was just a mutual affection, but it was not love. The reason why you can't forget me is just an obsession."

"Have you ever thought about how many things could have happened over the years? We are no longer the same people we were before. You only like me back then, not me now."

Zhong Yuemin said: "I have thought about this question and I am mentally prepared. I have even thought about it countless times. When I see you again, you will be a wife and a mother, and your husband will be wearing a white towel and a sheepskin coat. But I never thought that you would be with Ning Wei. The age gap between you..."

Qin Ling smiled and said, "So, in your eyes, if I leave you, I can only find a farmer in northern Shaanxi and never be able to leave the countryside for the rest of my life?"

"No, that's not what I meant. I meant..."

Qin Ling said, "I know what you mean. In fact, if I hadn't met Ning Wei, I would have married and had children when my parents helped me leave the countryside, but Ning Wei showed up. I still remember that when I was in danger, Ning Wei was the first to show up. He was just a young boy at the time, but he saved me like a god, and later he helped me a lot."

"I see. It seems I showed up a little late."

"I can't put it that way. I can only say that the fate between people is really wonderful. Ning Wei's appearance is like a ray of light in my life, illuminating my way forward and making me no longer confused."

Zhong Yuemin hesitated for a moment and asked, "So you've been in Ning Wei's restaurant like this? Is this what you like? I remember you liked singing very much and later joined a song and dance troupe. Why didn't you continue your singing career?"

Qin Ling said: "I haven't given up yet. In fact, for my hobby, our restaurant has specially prepared a stage so that I can go up and sing whenever I want." Zhong Yuemin didn't expect Zhao Shucheng to do so much for Qin Ling. This was something he couldn't do. Even now that he wanted to help Qin Ling, he didn't know where to start.

Just as Zhao Shucheng was preparing for the wedding, Zhong Yuemin also encountered problems.

An old friend of his, Liu Daqing, who grew up in the same compound, found him and said that he was planning to register a company, but he did not have enough capital on hand, so he hoped to borrow money from Zhong Yuemin as registered capital.

Zhong Yuemin frowned instinctively after hearing this and asked, "What have you decided to do? How much does it cost?"

"One million is best, but if that's not possible, half a million will do. I promise to pay it back in a month."

Zhong Yuemin said: "The money is not particularly much. I can think of a way for you, but you must be credible. If you don't return it by then, we will be in big trouble."

"Don't worry, don't you still believe me?"

Zhong Yuemin actually didn't quite believe it, but the biggest characteristic of Zhong Yuemin is that he is very loyal, so he took the risk and asked He Mei to give the other party a check for 500,000 yuan.

Unfortunately, Zhong Yuemin had never expected that Liu Daqing would use the money not to do any serious business or register a company, but instead planned to use the money to make a quick buck by playing with foreign exchange.

However, what Liu Daqing didn't expect was that the other party was essentially a liar, and the claim that he could make money by trading foreign exchange was just a boast. So after receiving the check, he directly withdrew the money and disappeared immediately.

When Liu Daqing learned that the other party had disappeared, he was immediately panicked, but he couldn't pay the money back to Zhong Yuemin, so he simply ran away with his bag.

Zhong Yuemin didn't know that Liu Daqing had problems. It just so happened that the company was facing competition from a foreign electrical company in the business field, so he had no time to care about the money he had loaned out.

When Zhong Yuemin finally confronted Owen and exposed his tricks, and won the business battle, when he was sharing the joy of victory with Li Yuanchao, he didn't expect that Li Yuanchao would give him a heavy blow.

"Yuemin, I don't want to joke with you. Let me tell you, the sky may really fall. Tell me, where did the 500,000 yuan in the trade department's account go?"

Zhong Yuemin said, "It's about this. One of my comrades wants to register a trading company and wants to borrow 500,000 yuan to verify the capital. He will return it immediately after the verification and repay the interest according to the national regulations."

Li Yuanchao said: "This is where the problem lies. Someone reported you to the procuratorate, saying that you embezzled public funds. They are investigating this matter now."

Zhong Yuemin said: "Yun Chao, it is very common for enterprises to borrow money from each other, and they repaid the interest according to regulations for only one month. I did not profit from it. How can this be illegal?"

"You are confused. Isn't this illegal? First, our company is a state-owned enterprise, and your friend is a private enterprise. Lending the state's money to a private person is illegal. Second, I asked the finance department to check. It has been more than 50 days since the funds were transferred out. In other words, you have not returned it to this day. Third, even if it is a short-term loan, did you sign a contract? Without a contract, you privately embezzled more than 500,000 yuan. Do you explain it clearly?"

Zhong Yuemin realized the seriousness of the problem when he heard this, and quickly said, "Yuan Chao, I'm sorry, I was confused. I don't understand the financial system. I will go and get the funds back now, and I will never let the company suffer any losses."

"Come back quickly. The procuratorate is still in the investigation stage. If you come back, things will be much simpler. If you don't come back, no one can help you. Yuemin, take care of yourself!"

Zhong Yuemin hurried to find Liu Daqing and question him about the funding issue, but whether he went to the compound or asked some friends, he didn't know where Liu Daqing had gone.

I originally wanted to ask about Liu Daqing's parents, but after asking the neighbors, I found out that his parents had passed away a long time ago, and Liu Daqing was the only one left.

Zhong Yuemin then realized that he seemed to have been cheated. He wanted to find the other party and beat him up, but he had no place to vent his emotions because he couldn't find the other party.

The next day.

When Zhong Yuemin was worrying in his office, his secretary knocked on the door and said that someone from the Security Department wanted to see him.

In fact, Zhong Yuemin was well prepared for this. He handed over the keys of the company-issued car mobile phone to his assistant and prepared to cooperate with the investigation.

Zhong Yuemin was taken away by people from the procuratorate, and the news was soon known to Zhang Haiyang and others.

When Zhang Haiyang and his friends learned that Zhong Yuemin had been taken away for embezzling public funds, they immediately gathered their friends in Beijing to discuss how to rescue Zhong Yuemin.

Gao Yue also learned about Zhong Yuemin's accident, and rushed back to the capital, and went straight to find Li Yuanchao to ask if there was any solution.

Li Yuanchao shook his head and said, "There is no better solution now. If we can make up the 500,000, Yuemin's problem will be much easier to deal with. The only problem now is that 500,000 is not a big deal for the company, but it is different for an individual."

"Although I really want to help him, I am just an employee and my monthly salary is only so little, so I can't help much."

Gao Yue also knew that Li Yuanchao could not come up with such a large sum of money, so she took out her resignation letter and said, "Mr. Li, I am here to resign. This is my resignation letter. I hope you can approve it."

"Why, aren't you doing a great job? I was planning to promote you."

Gao Yue said: "Thank you, Mr. Li, but I am ready to resign. I was able to enter the group because of Zhong Yuemin's relationship. Now that he is in trouble, I am still here. This is unacceptable. He went to prison and I got promoted, which makes it impossible for me to face him in the future."

"I never thought that you are such a loyal girl. It's not in vain that he made friends with you, but I still want to advise you to think about it carefully."

"No need, I've thought it through."

After Zhang Haiyang and the others got together, they talked about Zhong Yuemin and felt a little worried.

Zheng Tong said: "Even if we put our money together, it wouldn't be enough, maybe just over 50,000 yuan?"

"Repayment is the only way out, otherwise Yuemin will be in trouble." Zhang Haiyang said as he paced.

"Stop walking around, you're making me dizzy." Zhou Xiaobai crossed his arms and said angrily, "Stop nagging, we're just discussing money now."

"Ning Wei is such a jerk. Why hasn't he come yet? Among all of us, he's the only one who might have some money. Yue Min is such a jerk. He can lend such a large sum of money to a stranger. How big of a mess must he have made?"

Jiang Biyun said: "It's useless to say all this now. I think even if we put grass on our heads, we can't sell it for 500,000. I don't know if Ning Wei can come up with that much money. Can we think of other ways to catch Liu Daqing or that liar?" (End of this chapter)
