"I have to work today and tomorrow, and I may be late. What do you think? Let's make an appointment. I will give you the notes early tomorrow morning, and then you will return them to me next Monday." Dong Qiangqiang said.
"Thank you in advance. I'll text you the meeting address later." Zhang Xiaoxiao explained gratefully, "I saw you using a voice recorder in class these two days, so I thought maybe you could understand... …”
Dong Qiangqiang didn't have time to listen to her details and interrupted rudely: "I'm sorry, I'm busy right now. Please send me your address as soon as possible."
As soon as he hung up the phone, he saw the robotic arm quickly rise again, and in the blink of an eye the elevator car was delivered to the two of them.
When he and Duanmu walked out of the car tower door, Zhang Xiaoxiao's text message arrived as promised. But he didn't have time to take a closer look. After carefully identifying the direction, he ran towards the main entrance hall of the Auto City.
By the time the two of them ran out of breath to the hall, a full eight minutes had passed. There is no way, the Auto City is too big, and there is not even a shuttle bus or other means of transportation in the huge Auto City, so I can't get up even if I want to go fast.
But what surprised them was that there were only staff and a few visitors in the hall, and there was no sign of Mr. Bian or his entourage.
Duanmu saw Dong Qiangqiang's questioning look and said aggrievedly: "That Xiao Wang just now did say that Mr. Bian will meet us in the lobby in 10 minutes. I, I don't know why there is no one there now."
As he spoke, he dialed the other party's cell phone, but no one answered the other party's cell phone. Duanmu listened to the dial tone for several minutes in frustration.
"You'd better think about where to have lunch while they don't come back." Dong Qiangqiang reminded.
"I just looked at the map and it said that there is an authentic German restaurant in Motor City. If he..."
Before Duanmu finished speaking, Dong Qiangqiang immediately shook his head: "You'd better give him a few more options, so that he won't find fault with you."
"How about taking him to the city to eat 'Big Beef Bones'?" Duanmu has eaten with Dong Qiangqiang several times and has a good impression. "I think the environment and menu are both good. It's also German food, so it's fair."
"Western food is no problem." Dong Qiangqiang thought that if he went to "Big Beef Bones", he would be taking care of Hualing, and nodded in agreement, "But what if he suddenly says he wants to eat Chinese, Japanese or Thai food?"
"Chinese food..." Duanmu was stunned. He had never considered this issue at all, "Can't you? Come all the way to Germany to eat Chinese food? Is he crazy?"
"If you want to avoid being scolded by him, you'd better prepare a few more plans." Dong Qiangqiang suggested in a low voice while looking around, "There is a Japanese sushi restaurant behind the train station, and there is a restaurant called 'Hexiang' next to Mashu Lake. There are good Thai restaurants, and a new Chinese buffet restaurant has opened next to the Real supermarket on the outskirts of Hannover. If he asks about it later, you can tell him about these restaurants. Let him do multiple-choice questions, not quiz questions, so What’s best for you.”
Duanmu admired them: "Although I came earlier than you, I have never been to the places you mentioned. I have never even heard of them."
"I haven't been to any of these. Some of them I saw while driving by, and some I heard from others." Dong Qiangqiang looked at his watch, "It's been such a long time, and they haven't come yet."
"That's right. Xiao Wang told me just now that they will be there soon." Duanmu looked around uneasily, "You said they won't get lost, right?"
"If Mr. Bian is like that, if he got lost, he would have called you and scolded you so much. How can he still let you wait leisurely like this?" Dong Qiangqiang guessed that Duanmu might have been tricked by Xiao Wang, and changed the topic. , "By the way, you only said half of what you said just now. What happens after the audit report comes out?"
Duanmu saw people walking around from time to time and pointed to the corner. Dong Qiangqiang understood and walked over quickly.
"Can you speak now?" Dong Qiangqiang asked.
"What's really strange to me is not that their company got the unqualified financial report from the audit firm, but the attitude of our boss."
"What's his attitude?" Dong Qiangqiang felt puzzled.
"The feeling he gave me, well, how should I put it, seems to be..." Duanmu thought for a while, "I am very happy and looking forward to it."
"Aren't you talking nonsense? You are going to make a lot of money soon. How can you not be happy and look forward to it?" Dong Qiangqiang thought Duanmu could say something different, but he turned out to be a "stifling fart". "I'm happy even if you leave me alone. "
"No, to be more precise, our boss seems to have known about this for a long time, so I suspect that the matter is not that simple. Maybe Commerzbank withdrew last year because of this."
"But changing to another auditing company got completely different results, which is obviously not a big deal. Could Commerzbank be too cautious?" Dong Qiangqiang hypothesized nonchalantly.
"If changing the audit company can solve the problem, why doesn't Commerzbank do it? Can we, a second-rate French company, be replaced? What's even weirder is that our boss asked my colleague to find someone in the same industry as Bian Corporation without telling me. News about their companies, especially those companies that have had scandals, are still not allowed to be known to me. Isn’t this weird? Now I am obviously working on this project. If Mr. Bian and the others really have problems, I will definitely be the easiest to find out. Could it be that I Shouldn’t the boss ask me to pay special attention to them?”
"Then how do you know this?" Dong Qiangqiang joked, "Obviously your boss and colleagues are not good at keeping secrets."
"The French people's little tricks are not worth mentioning. I can see their tricks at a glance." At this point, Duanmu seemed a little proud.
"Then tell me what they are hiding from you?" Dong Qiangqiang looked at his watch again. It was already nearly 20 minutes before the agreed time, and there was still no trace of the other party.
"I will find out." Duanmu stared at the ground thoughtfully, "give me some more time and we will get to the bottom of it."
After waiting for more than 20 minutes, Mr. Bian and his men finally appeared in the hall.
Dong Qiangqiang didn't want to talk to him and walked out the door alone.
Duanmu walked forward alone and told them about the lunch arrangements.
Before he could finish his words, the follower Xiao Wang had already jumped up and laughed loudly at the low quality of the restaurant Duanmu recommended.
Duanmu sneered in his heart. This guy was just as Dong Qiangqiang expected, and he deliberately came to make trouble for himself. He immediately and without any haste, he used the same rhetoric that Dong Qiangqiang taught him just now.
Dong Qiangqiang slowly drove the car to the main entrance of the automobile city. As soon as the door opened, several people filed in. This time, before Dong Qiangqiang could remind him, the two followers had already taken the initiative to fasten their seat belts tightly.
Only Mr. Bian was sitting alone in the back seat, not wearing a seat belt, but looking out the window with a solemn expression.
Just as Dong Qiangqiang was about to ask Duanmu where to go next, Duanmu said first, "Mr. Bian wants to go to the 'Best Furong' restaurant, but I don't know the address. You should be able to find it on your navigation device, right?"
Upon hearing these four words, Dong Qiangqiang was stunned.
