Chapter 223: What the h.e.l.l!
The sudden appearance of this man with gold-rimmed spectacles aroused Ji Feng's strong vigilance.
It wasn't just because this person was hostile towards him and He Hui, but more importantly, Ji Feng was keenly aware of this golden-rimmed gla.s.ses man's att.i.tude towards Zhai Yandong as he spoke.
This man's status should not be any lower than Zhai Yadong's!
This meant that this person should not be a member of Splendid Group. At the very least, he was not an employee of Splendid Group.
"Not only is he not a member of the Brilliant Group, but according to my estimation, he is not a member of the holding company of the Brilliant Group either."
Ji Feng nodded his head, "That's right!"
On the surface, the holding company of the Brilliant Group was an offsh.o.r.e company from overseas, but everyone knew that the Brilliant Group was in fact the private property of a martial artist.
This also meant that the offsh.o.r.e company didn't have much use for the Brilliant Group. The one who could command the Brilliant Group was the Wu family.
Therefore, this golden-rimmed gla.s.ses man should also not be a member of the offsh.o.r.e company.
Judging from Zhai Yadong's att.i.tude towards him, it was obvious that this man's status was not low. This caused Ji Feng and He Hui to be curious about his background.
"Could he be from the Wu Clan?" He Hui frowned.
"I don't know. You know, I'm not too familiar with the people from these clans in Beijing!" Ji Feng shook his head.
"If that's the case..."
He Yingguo started to ponder. "This bespectacled man must have some background. We have to figure out his ident.i.ty. At this critical point in time, we have to rule out any accidents that might happen."
"Investigate!"
Ji Feng said resolutely, "We must figure out this person's ident.i.ty as soon as possible. If he is a member of the Wu Clan, then there is nothing much to say. However, if he has another background …"
He Hongwei continued, "Then I'll be troubling you."
Ji Feng also agreed with He Hui. If they wanted to stop the collaboration between the Brilliant Group and the j.a.panese, they would have to compete with the Wu family and the Brilliant Group.
If another force suddenly appeared at this time, there might be some unforeseen troubles, and even unforeseen events that would cause their efforts to fail and ultimately fail.
That was why they had to figure out whether or not this golden-framed gla.s.ses man was someone sent by another power. That was very important!
"Leave this matter to me!" "I'll check!" He Hongwei said.
"What about the news about the walk?" Ji Feng asked.
However, when it came to sending people out to spread the news, he was somewhat lacking in strength. This was because in order to spread the news, he needed to at least control the public opinion, and that required sufficient manpower. It was best if he could use the news or other information channels.
On this matter, Ji Feng clearly knew that he was not that grand.
"Don't worry, I won't worry about spreading the news. I'll arrange it well. You just need to consider your solution for this stage!" He Hongwei said with a smile.
Ji Feng nodded with a smile, "That's for the best!"
Although he had the same goal as He Hui regarding the alliance between Splendid Group and the j.a.panese, the two of them had joined forces.
But in fact, they were independent of each other.
Whatever the two of them did, they would not ask each other. After all, their ident.i.ties determined that they would not be able to fully cooperate with each other. Besides, even if the two of them were tied together, it would still be impossible for them to be the main force. There had to be one responsible for the main attack and the other for supporting them from the side.
But regardless of whether it was Ji Feng or He Hui, both of them were extremely outstanding. Neither of them were suitable to be the other person's a.s.sistant.
So, from the start, they already had a clear understanding of each other's positions. It was that the two of them could work together to a large degree, but they would each use their own methods to accomplish that.
If the two's methods intersect, then they would work together to complete it. As for the others, they would each be on their own.
For example, the Brilliant Empire Group today. Whether it was Ji Feng or He Yingguo, both of them agreed to this idea. That was why they came here together.
This was also known as complementary strengths. In the end, they would all return the same way.
"Right..."
"Ji Feng, there's some media we need you to help us communicate with," He Hui suddenly thought of something.
Ji Feng's brows twitched. He didn't quite understand what Qin Wentian meant. "What do you mean?"
He Hui laughed, "You don't think that everyone in the media will listen to me, do you? "Actually, there are quite a few media outlets who have quite a good relationship with your family..."
Upon hearing his words, Ji Feng instantly understood what he meant.
This was an important position for the media, and if you could not control the media, it was equivalent to losing the right to speak. If your opponent reported something unscrupulous to the media, no matter how long it took, the powerful people would not be able to take it.
One had to know that one could not defy the will of the people!
However, public opinion also needed guidance!
This was politics. No one could avoid it, and the Ji Clan was no exception.
"No problem, I'll do it!" Ji Feng nodded his head in agreement. "If you need anything in the future, feel free to communicate with me!"
"Of course!"
He Hui smiled and nodded.
After which, He Hui returned to the office, but Ji Feng did not follow him back. He and Bai Zhu returned to the inn together.
"Looks like I have to find a quiet place!" Ji Feng looked at the customers coming and going in the hotel and couldn't help but to frown. Although this restaurant was very considerate, there were many people around. No one knew whether or not there were people monitoring them.
If you find a house outside, you can avoid a lot of people's eyes.
"Shall I go out and look for a house?" White Pearl asked.
"No need."
Ji Feng shook his head. "I'll just find someone to help you with the matter. You can go out and look for it, but you don't even know where it is suitable for you..."
Baizhu is unfamiliar with Cantonese. Even driving out requires navigation instructions, so how can I go out and find a house?
Moreover, Zheng Yuanshan was in the southern and southern provinces, so it was most appropriate to ask for his help.
This was a small matter, he could discuss it with He Hui when he returned. But now, what Ji Feng wanted to do was to let his family contact the media.
At the same time, Ji Feng also had to think about what to do next. After all, what they were going to face was not ordinary people, but the gigantic and powerful j.a.panese martial artists.
He couldn't help but frown. No matter how hard he tried to recall, he didn't have the slightest impression of this person, and this person clearly held a grudge against him. Therefore, Ji Feng speculated that this person was most likely related to one of his opponents.
"Is it someone from the martial arts family, or is it someone from the Qiao family?" Or is it the j.a.panese or the people of the dynasty? " Ji Feng pondered, but he still didn't have any clues, so he could only give up in the end.
"Looks like I can only wait for the grand results of my investigation." Ji Feng shook his head, no longer thinking about this matter.
As expected, He Hong came back in the evening with the information about the golden-rimmed gla.s.ses man.
"We've found out that guy's background!"
"Here's the information. Take a look."
Ji Feng took over the folder pa.s.sed to him by He Hui. After opening it, he saw a table of information. The photo displayed was the golden-rimmed gla.s.ses man he had seen in the Glory Corporation today.
"Zhang Xingbang?"
Ji Feng finally knew this person's name, "From an ordinary family of cadres..."
As he read through the contents of the book, Ji Feng frowned.
Based on the information he had gathered, this golden-framed gla.s.ses man was called Zhang Xingbang, someone from Beijing. Zhang Xingbang's mother was a former dance dancer for the Arts Group. Now, she had moved from the front of the stage to the back of the house to do administrative work. Her father was a middle ranking official in the power department and was also in charge.
From this information, it could be seen that this Zhang Xingbang was born into an ordinary clan. Compared to ordinary commoners, he was definitely not bad. His parents were both cadres, and they could be said to be of superior status.
However, Ji Feng felt that something was off.
How could this Zhang Xingbang, who came from a n.o.ble family, possibly make Zhai Yandong think so highly of him? And from the looks of it, his status was actually not below Zhai Yadong's?
Moreover, Zhang Xingbang was still so young, and by right, Zhai Yadong could already be considered his elder. This made Ji Feng even more surprised.
"Is there something special about him?" Ji Feng continued to read, but did not discover any special information. This history of Xingbang was also very ordinary, only in the university education experience, it was written about studying abroad in England, but that was all.
"That's it?" Ji Feng raised his head and asked.
"That's right. Most of his friends in Yan Jing were ordinary clan members. Some were from a family courtyard, while others were his high school cla.s.smates. There isn't anything special about them." He Hui also knew what Ji Feng was asking about and replied, "I also think it's very strange."
Ji Feng asked, "Does this Zhang Xingbang have anything to do with the Wu Clan?"
He Hongwei shook his head. "I don't think so. Judging from his background and the information my friends have gathered, it's clear that he has no right to be a Martial Arts Cultivator."
"That's weird!" Ji Feng was delighted, "Brother Hong, either your investigations are inaccurate, or you have seen a ghost. Otherwise, Zhang Xingbang would not have viewed me as an enemy for no reason, nor would he have received so much respect from Zhai Yadong!"
"But we can't find out what the problem is right now!" He Hui shook his head.
"Then I'll check!" Ji Feng's eyes glimmered, "I firmly believe that this Zhang Xingbang definitely has an origin that we don't know about!"
"Are you so sure?" He Hui asked.
"I believe in you!"
Ji Feng firmly said, "At least, I have three other reasons to support my point of view!"
