Paramount!
Paramount is the largest song and dance hall in Nanjing. At night, people from high society gather here.
Military officers, businessmen, officials, celebrities, and even some foreigners are also willing to come here to hunt for sex.
This is a paradise for the rich, and a holy land for a group of Cinderellas looking for Prince Charming.
There is only joy here, even though the brutal Japanese army is less than a hundred miles away from Nanjing.
In the two days since Dragon Boat Festival arrived in Nanjing, the war situation has been developing towards an unfavorable situation.
The pace of the Japanese attack never stopped. Even though the Dragon Boat Festival has severely damaged many brigades and detachments of the Japanese army.
It was as if the Japanese could not be killed no matter how hard they tried. They kept attacking and increasing their troops.
At this time, the Xicheng Line was already in danger. But the senior officers at the top still sang and sang every night.
Including Boss Dai from the Military Command, Director Xu from the Military Command, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Minister Wang from the Ministry of Munitions, Dean Zhang from the Justice Department, etc., they are all gathered in the VIP private room on the third floor of Paramount today.
And in addition to these old guys, there are also several younger generations, such as Kong Yang, the eldest son of the Kong family, and Sun Wen, the son of the Minister of Foreign Affairs. General Shang's son, Shang Zhi, is actually here.
Shang Zhi was brought here by Sun Wenqiang. In fact, he is not interested in this kind of business.
But Sun Wen said, if you have a lot of money, you won’t bite your hand. You can get the money just by hanging your name. Why don’t you take it?
So Shang Zhi also followed.
There were more than a dozen people, old and young, sitting in the room, but what they were talking about was not any major national affairs, but how to deal with the Dragon Boat Festival.
Today's Dragon Boat Festival was a slap in the face to Boss Dai. In the morning, Boss Dai refused to talk to him about redeeming people. In the afternoon, he ransacked Wang Laohu's opium shop.
Boss Dai was even a little confused, because the Dragon Boat Festival had just entered Nanjing city but it had not been long, and it only took a day and a half to fully plan.
But no one would have thought that he could find it in such nook and corner as Building 36, Beiqiao Street. This is simply a weird thing.
At this time, Director Xu smiled and said: "So how is Lao Wang doing now? He has been with you for many years."
Boss Dai said: "What can I do? I scolded him and asked him to suspend his duties and reflect. Are we really going to kill him? Damn it, Wang Chuyi is also stupid. There are so many ways to make money and he won't leave. Follow him." His brother-in-law sells cigarettes. If he hadn't followed me for so many years, I would have wanted to kill him. But his secretary made me collapse. Otherwise, how could I give the committee an explanation?"
Director Xu gloated: "So it seems that this Dragon Boat Festival, we still can't offend him? Lao Dai rejected him in the morning, and they gave him a slap in the face in the afternoon."
At this time, Sun Wen said disdainfully: "Uncle Xu, you think too highly of that kid. What does he have? A bumpkin in a small temple. If the chairman of the committee did not protect him, he would have died many times. ”
At this time, Minister Wang from the Munitions Department also echoed: "Master Sun is right, if there is no commission to cover him, who is he during the Dragon Boat Festival?"
Director Xu sneered and said: "What you are saying is in vain. He is now a popular person around the committee member. What can we do? Can you make the committee member dislike him? The question now is, what should we do? ? Are you going to beat him or win him over?
If I hit him, I would have to kill him with a stick. I can see that this kid will avenge his revenge. In the morning, Lao Dai rejected him, and in the afternoon, he gave him eye drops.
And if you want to win over him, then let Miss Bai go and give him this face. "
The Minister of Foreign Affairs snorted coldly: "Let Miss Bai go, what will we do in the future? Even if Nanjing falls, if we take Miss Bai to Chongqing, we can regroup."
Director Xu said: "Old Sun, the problem now is that if we let Miss Bai go, we still have a bowl of rice to eat. If we don't let go, our bowl will be gone."
The Minister of Foreign Affairs said angrily: "He dares, but I don't believe him alone. It's turned the world upside down. I remember that Boss Dai helped cover up the fact that he killed the goddaughter of Chief of Staff Li, right? He dared to be a freshman in junior high school, We dare to do fifteen.”
Director Xu shook his head and said, "Isn't that just a slap in the committee member's face? Then it won't be about us ruining our jobs, but the people who eat will be gone."
"Yes, what Director Xu said makes sense."
Boss Dai agreed. But at this moment, the remaining light from the corner of his eyes glanced at Kong Yang, who had been silent.
Boss Dai asked: "Master Kong? The Kong family is the largest shareholder of Paramount. If Miss Bai leaves, it will be your Kong family who will suffer the biggest loss?"
Kong Yang said with a smile: "Let me tell you uncles, our Kong family owes a favor to the Dragon Boat Festival. My uncle also recognizes this favor, so this time, our Kong family cannot come forward."
"Favor? What favor? Is it the time you were kicked out of Changshu?"
Sun Wen said disdainfully, in his eyes, is that considered a favor?
Kong Yang said with a smile: "Master Sun, I had the same idea as you at that time, but thinking about Changshu now, Dragon Boat Festival's decision to drive us out of the city at that time was the right one. Otherwise, we, as a branch of the Kong family, would all have died." In Changshu City.”
"snort!"
Sun Wen snorted coldly and stopped talking, and the entire private room fell into a brief silence.
Everyone seems to be thinking, but they all seem to be escaping. Because the name Dragon Boat Festival is really a headache.
He doesn't play by common sense and never does anything without regard for the consequences. Just like today. Boss Dai was sure that after he had offended so many people, he did not dare to offend so many high-ranking officials, including himself.
But who would have thought that he would dare to do this, and put eye drops on himself that night, so that he would be scolded by the chairman of the committee.
Facing such a young junior, what can he do? What can we do?
In his eyes, Duan Wu is a bastard. He has helped him so much secretly, and it's fine if he doesn't say thank you. He also has to give himself little shoes and eye drops. Has his conscience been eaten by a dog? ?
Boom, boom, boom! Boom, boom, boom! ...
At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and it was very urgent.
Boss Dai looked at the door impatiently, as did everyone else. Because right now, everyone is upset.
Kong Yang got up helplessly and went to see what was happening outside.
He opened the door, but it was Manager Sun at the front desk.
Kong Yang said displeased: "Didn't I tell you not to disturb me if you have nothing to do?"
Manager Sun nodded tightly and apologized: "I'm sorry, boss, it happened suddenly. There are three foreign businessmen clamoring to see Miss Bai. But Miss Bai, this,..."
"Push it. The more you do it at this time, the less likely you are to get yourself into trouble."
Kong Yang didn't want to cause trouble for himself and was ready to drive Manager Sun away. Manager Sun's voice became louder in desperation: "Boss, the other party is willing to pay 100,000 US dollars for three people to have a night of drinking with Miss Bai!..."
