Who would still start a business seriously after being reborn?

Chapter 499 Gives You a Reminder

At this moment, Li Xiang's back was soaked with cold sweat.

Although those ten employees have all resigned and have no further connection with Honor Computer.

But if those ten employees really do something outrageous, he will definitely face disciplinary action within the group.

Cheng Yi hung up the phone and, without hesitation, immediately dialed the number of the person in charge of the Zhonghai City Black Panther Security Branch.

Zhonghai City and Yanjing City are both important business areas for Black Panther Security, so these two branch companies are quite large.

The head of Black Panther Security in Zhonghai City is Zhao Tiezhu, nicknamed Black Bear, and was formerly a tank soldier.

“Black Bear, we’ve encountered an emergency.” Cheng Yi said urgently, “Ten employees from Glory Factory No. 2 have driven a silver Wuling minivan to Zhonghai. They drew lots beforehand to determine their fate, and their target is likely Tang Jun, the president of Microsoft China Region.”

Upon hearing Cheng Yi's words, Zhao Tiezhu also realized the seriousness of the problem and immediately asked, "When will they arrive in Zhonghai?"

"The car left Jingzhou about forty minutes ago, and I estimate it will take another three hours or so to get there."

"Do you have the license plate number?" Zhao Tiezhu asked immediately.

"They will definitely change their license plates along the way, and they might even switch to a taxi when they reach Zhonghai. I don't care what method you use, use all the security forces in Zhonghai and along the route to stop this car before they reach Zhonghai! Not a single person can be lost, and we can't let anything happen to them! Do you understand?"

"Understood, I'll make the arrangements immediately! Get all the brothers along the way moving!" Zhao Tiezhu replied hastily.

Half an hour later, the Zhonghai City Black Panther Security Branch had entered a state of combat readiness.

Zhao Tiezhu quickly mobilized his team to analyze the main routes from Jingzhou to Zhonghai, from highways to national roads and then to provincial roads. At the same time, he used Black Panther Security's special connections within the transportation system to try to access surveillance footage from key intersections along the route to find the suspicious silver van.

As soon as the order was given, hundreds of Black Panther security personnel set up surveillance at major entrances to the city, highway service areas, toll stations, and other locations.

A silent interception battle quickly unfolded under the cover of night.

At the same time, the silver Wuling minivan, carrying the spirit of ten resolute men, sped along the provincial highway leading to Zhonghai like an arrow released from a bow.

The driver was a middle-aged man known as Lao Gui, who was skilled in driving and had a fierce look in his eyes.

Old Gui was probably the most miserable one in Factory No. 2. He used to be a coal miner with a good salary and a promising future, but not long after they got married, his wife rekindled her relationship with her ex.

Witnessing his wife having sex with another man in bed completely drove Lao Gui to madness.

During the fight, the man was thrown to the corner of the bed by the old ghost, which broke his coccyx, resulting in permanent paralysis of his lower body.

Old Ghost was sentenced to fourteen years and six months in prison for intentional injury.

He was only 26 when he went in, and he came out over 40. His best years were completely wasted by an unhappy marriage.

Wu Qiang, in the passenger seat, gripped a gleaming wrench tightly in his hand. The other eight people in the car remained silent, the atmosphere oppressive and resolute.

After they finished driving on this provincial highway, they immediately changed to a fake license plate.

"Qiangzi, what time should we make our move?" Old Ghost asked, staring into the darkness ahead.

"The safest thing to do is to wait at the building entrance during their working hours," Wu Qiang said, pulling out Tang Jun's photo.

"Alright! Then at 9 a.m., send that bastard on his way!" Old Ghost slammed on the gas, and the van roared to life.

Around 2 a.m., they finally entered the territory of Zhonghai City. Lao Gui drove the car into a gas station to refuel.

As soon as they parked their car, two men wearing reflective roadside assistance vests strolled over.

"Hey bro, still busy so late?" one of the men said with a smile.

Wu Qiang glanced at them warily and mumbled, "Yes, delivery."

"Your headlights seem a bit crooked, do you want me to take a look?" Another man kindly approached the front of the car.

Old Gui had just finished paying for his gas when he saw this and immediately shouted, "What are you doing? Move aside, move aside!"

He pushed the two men aside, opened the car door, and said to Wu Qiang, "Let's go, get in the car."

The van quickly disappeared into the night, so fast that the two burly men didn't have time to stop it.

The two men exchanged a glance, and one of them immediately took out his phone and said, "Brother Xiong, target confirmed. Silver Wuling, license plate number Han A52147. There are about eight to ten men in the car. They are very vigilant. They just left the gas station where I am and drove into the outer ring road of the Central Plains."

"Okay, got it." Zhao Tiezhu's deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

“Those two guys were acting strange. We need to find a place to hide for a while.” Old Gui had been in prison the longest, spending fourteen years there and had heard countless stories about how to handle this kind of situation.

Wu Qiang said, "Then let's find a bridge hole to rest for two hours and avoid the storm."

"Hmm." Old Ghost nodded slowly, a look of worry appearing in his eyes.

They found a bridge arch and stayed there until after six in the morning.

Then he drove the van to a toll station on the outer ring road of Zhonghai City.

Just as they were queuing to pay, a dilapidated-looking Santana 2000 suddenly veered erratically from the adjacent lane, attempting to cut in line.

Old Gui tried to dodge, but with a loud bang, the Santana 2000 crashed into the left rear side of the van.

"How do you drive?" Old Gui and Wu Qiang were instantly enraged and got out of the car.

A burly, bald man with a fierce face, wearing a floral shirt, got out of the Santana, cursing, "Damn it! You're asking me how I drive? How the hell do you drive?"

"You're the one who hit us!" Wu Qiang was furious and raised a wrench to confront him.

Just as tensions were running high, several unmarked black SUVs quickly and quietly surrounded them from the side and rear.

The car door opened quickly, and a dozen men dressed in plain clothes but with extremely efficient and fierce movements rushed out. Before Wu Qiang and the others could react, they subdued them all on the ground with lightning speed.

Their movements were clean and efficient, even more skillful than those of police officers.

"Don't move, all of you behave!" the leader hissed. "Come with me."

Seeing that the other party was numerous and acted professionally, Wu Qiang and his group assumed they had encountered police officers. Coupled with their guilty consciences, the ten men were instantly stunned, and any thought of resistance was completely suppressed before it could even arise. The Santana that had staged the accident and the black SUV quickly sandwiched the silver minivan in the middle, escorting Lao Gui and the others away from the toll station.

Before long, they arrived at an abandoned warehouse in the suburbs of Zhonghai City.

Zhao Tiezhu looked at Lao Gui and the others and asked, "Who sent you? Who is your target? Speak!"

Wu Qiang, his neck stiff, roared, "No one ordered us to do this! We just can't stand that bastard Tang Jun. He caused our chairman to be hospitalized. We're here just to get an explanation!"

Zhao Tiezhu sneered: "You few think you can get an explanation from Tang Jun? Do you know what level of security Microsoft China has? Do you know how much effort Chairman Du and President Cheng went through to stop you? This level of impulsiveness is not something you can interfere with?"

Mentioning Du Yusheng and Cheng Yi, Lao Gui and the others' momentum instantly weakened. Lao Gui looked at Zhao Tiezhu and exclaimed in surprise, "You guys aren't police officers?"

"My name is Zhao Tiezhu, and I'm the head of Black Panther Security's Zhonghai branch." Zhao Tiezhu looked at Lao Gui and the others and smiled, "However, I admire your courage."

Zhao Tiezhu patted Lao Gui on the shoulder and said, "If you don't insist on doing this anymore, I'll send a car to take you back."

Old Gui shook his head, staring sharply at Zhao Tiezhu, and said, "We've already completed the resignation procedures. Our actions won't implicate the group! Chairman Du has been incredibly kind to us. We're determined to kill Tang Jun; no one can save him!"

"That's not how you take revenge!" Zhao Tiezhu said in a deep voice. "This is just reckless courage. Even if you kill Tang Jun, so what? There will just be another Zhao Jun, Li Jun, or Wang Jun! Unless you have the ability to go to America and take down Microsoft's headquarters! If you don't have that ability, you'd better stay put! If you dare to make any more moves, don't blame me for being impolite!"

Zhao Tiezhu waved his hand, and his men immediately took Lao Gui and the others away.

Judging from the energy of Lao Gui and his gang, if we let them go now, they'll definitely keep running to Microsoft's China branch.

After settling Lao Gui and the others in, Zhao Tiezhu immediately reported the successful interception to Cheng Yi.

Cheng Yi breathed a sigh of relief. After a moment of contemplation, he instructed Zhao Tiezhu, "Well done. Keep a close eye on them and don't mistreat them, but don't let them run away either. Send the gifts to Tang Jun this morning."

"Understood!" Zhao Tiezhu understood immediately.

Microsoft China, President's Office.

Tang Jun had just finished the morning meeting and was in a very good mood.

The strategy of breaking down Momo Group into smaller, more manageable parts seems to be starting to work, with brokers and lawsuits in various regions causing Momo considerable trouble.

In particular, the fact that Du Yusheng was attacked and hospitalized made him feel a sense of relief, although on the surface he expressed shock and condemnation of the incident.

Just then, his secretary came in with a cup of coffee, gently placed it on the table, and said with a smile, "Mr. Tang, here's your coffee."

"Hmm." Tang Jun didn't even look up, continuing to look at the documents.

The secretary said in a low voice, seemingly casually, "Mr. Tang, I just overheard the security department chatting. They said that the Black Panther Security Company in Zhonghai City mobilized the entire group last night, with hundreds of people working all night."

"Oh? Have you found out what they're busy with?" Tang Jun suddenly became interested.

The female secretary shook her head and said, "I'm not sure."

Just as Tang Jun was feeling puzzled, his bodyguard strode in and whispered, "Mr. Tang, Zhao Tiezhu is here and wants to see you."

"Zhao Tiezhu?" Tang Jun's expression changed slightly.

Zhao Tiezhu still has some reputation in Zhonghai City, after all, he has hundreds of elite security personnel under his command.

Considering what happened last night, Tang Jun couldn't help but feel a sense of doubt. He nodded and said, "Let him in."

"it is good."

Before long, Zhao Tiezhu, who looked like a black bear, walked into Tang Jun's office alone.

He wore a gray suit, his strong body stretching it so much it looked like it was about to burst, and even the lines of his muscles were visible on the suit.

"Mr. Zhao, you didn't come here to discuss security business, did you?" Tang Jun sat upright in his boss's chair, adopting a superior attitude.

Zhao Tiezhu was just the head of a security company, and his status was far below that of him.

He wouldn't have met Zhao Tiezhu if he hadn't been curious about what happened last night.

Zhao Tiezhu smiled dismissively and said, "Microsoft has the strongest security group in Asia protecting it. How dare I presume to teach you? I'm here on orders from our group's General Manager Cheng to remind General Manager Tang."

"Remind me?" Tang Jun was taken aback at first, then laughed and said, "The president of a mere multi-billion dollar corporation has the right to remind me?"

Zhao Tiezhu maintained the composure expected of a soldier and continued, "It's like this: our chairman was injured and hospitalized. Some employees felt that you were behind it, so they drew lots to see if they could meet with you in Zhonghai City."

"Drawing lots for life and death? Are you telling me a story?" Tang Jun sneered.

"I'm not joking with you," Zhao Tiezhu said coldly. "They are all employees of Glory Computer's No. 2 factory. You should have thoroughly investigated Momo Group. You must be familiar with this No. 2 factory, right?"

"Honor Computer Factory No. 2?" Tang Jun frowned slightly. He thought about it carefully, but the name seemed familiar. He couldn't help but look at the secretary beside him.

The secretary immediately whispered, "The employees in Glory Computer's Factory No. 2 are all released prisoners; there are 491 of them in total."

Tang Jun's body trembled violently. He raised his head, his face turning pale, and said, "You mean the employees in Factory No. 2 drew life-or-death lots to harm me?"

“I don’t know if it’s bad for you, but out of 491 people, they drew lots for life and death. The ten who won have already gone into hiding in Zhonghai City. We searched all night last night but couldn’t find them, so I came to remind President Tang to be careful when traveling,” Zhao Tiezhu said.

Zhao Tiezhu continued, "The employees of Factory No. 2 have always regarded our chairman as their benefactor. You have offended our chairman, and they will definitely not let this go."

Tang Jun pointed at Zhao Tiezhu and said angrily, "Your Momo Group is taking in these ex-convicts for this purpose, right? You're really something. You're not recruiting employees, you're recruiting suicide bombers."

Zhao Tiezhu said, "Momo Group took them in simply to give them a chance to start a new life. It's not as despicable as you think. Otherwise, President Cheng wouldn't have sent me to search for them continuously and come to remind you."

"Hmph!" Tang Jun snorted coldly, feeling a little flustered.

He wasn't afraid of a face-to-face battle, since such things were commonplace in the business world of Europe and America.

But what's most frightening is the current situation.

You know someone is trying to harm you, but you don't know when, where, or how.

It's like having a sharp blade hanging over your head, ready to fall and give you a chilling blow at any moment.
