Movie: Get Alpha Dog at the start

Chapter 928 Turning enemies into enemies

Inside the tea room of Wu Xianlong's villa.

"Xiaohui, how is Ruirui doing recently? She hasn't come to my place for a while." Wu Xianlong asked casually.

Zhao Hui took a sip of tea and said, "Oh, she is busy with her lessons. It's because she missed too many classes due to her illness. High school students are under a lot of pressure now."

"Yeah, it's not easy for kids nowadays. When we were kids, even if we didn't get much education, we could still find a job. But it's not the same now. If you don't get into a good university, you can't even find a job." Wu Xianlong said with emotion.

As soon as Zhao Hui heard Wu Xianlong mention the past, he knew that the other party invited him for more than just tea, but he remained calm on the surface.

"It's mainly because of the different environment. When we were young, our family was so poor that we couldn't even get enough to eat. Take Xiaofei for example. He started wearing Adidas and Nike when he was in junior high school. Now you see he manages the company in an orderly manner."

Wu Xianlong was about to take up the conversation when Zhao Hui patted his hands and advised, "Brother, our grandchildren will have their own blessings. There is no need for us to work so hard all the time. Let them do it. Instead, you need to take good care of your body. How much money is too much?"

However, how could an old hand like Wu Xianlong be easily stopped by just one sentence? He took the opportunity to hold Zhao Hui's hand and began to cry.

"Xiaohui, there are no outsiders here, so I am not afraid to tell you the truth. Since the policy has been tightened, Junlong Real Estate can't get a bank loan, so I can only find a way to borrow from some private channels. You know this kind of loan, the interest rate is very high. Although the company has done some projects in the past two years, it has not only not made much money, but has lost a lot."

"The last time I approached Xie Zhiyuan about the Long Beach project, he offered me a price that was more than 10 points higher. If I hadn't run out of funds, how could I have agreed to such a high condition? I had been counting on the Yinhe Community to be able to pay back the money for a while, but it turned out that the guy named Tao found out, so I had to pay the money back in advance. This time, I lost a lot of money."

Wu Xianlong's eyes were red as he looked at Zhao Hui and said, "Xiaohui, I've really hit a wall this time. Please help me. I promise that it will be just this once. When Junlong Real Estate finishes this project and becomes a first-tier real estate company, we will be on the whitelist and won't have to worry about not getting a loan."

Zhao Hui hesitated for a moment, then said earnestly, "Brother, it's not that I won't help you. You also know that the internal supervision of banks is becoming more and more stringent now, and I am powerless."

Wu Xianlong did not give up. He grabbed Zhao Hui's hand tightly and begged in a tearful voice: "Xiaohui, you have worked in the bank for so many years. You should know that real estate companies like Junlong Real Estate will go bankrupt once their working capital runs out and they can't raise money. Can you bear to see your big brother struggle for half his life and end up in poverty and sleeping on the street?"

"Brother."

"Xiaohui."

The two looked at each other, Zhao Hui sighed inwardly and avoided Wu Xianlong's gaze: "Brother, you once saved my life. No matter what happens in the end, as long as I have a bite to eat, I will not let you go hungry. The same goes for Xiaofei. He is the same as Ruirui in my heart."

After saying that, Zhao Hui patted Wu Xianlong's hand, which had been holding his, and stood up and left.

Looking at Zhao Hui's back, Wu Xianlong's eyes became sharp and cold.

Not long after, Wu Xiaofei came back and sat down in front of Wu Xianlong: "Dad, how was your conversation with Uncle Zhao?"

"The talks broke down." Wu Xianlong took off his glasses, pressed the sides of his nose, and said helplessly.

Wu Xiaofei got anxious when he heard this: "Uncle Zhao doesn't agree? What should I do then?"

"What else can I do? Just let it go." Wu Xianlong sat up straight, his eyes revealing a fierceness that was completely different from his usual elegant temperament.

"At this point, I can only embarrass your Uncle Zhao."

"Dad, just tell me what to do."

Wu Xianlong put on his glasses again, and the lenses flashed a bright light under the refraction of sunlight.

"Are the recordings of Xie Zhiyuan and the others having dinner at our house still there?"

"Yes, Dad, what do you mean?"

Wu Xianlong nodded gently: "Find a reliable person to deliver this thing to your uncle Zhao's house."

"Dad, is this possible? Xie Zhiyuan has already gone in, and the Long Beach project has not been approved yet." Wu Xiaofei hesitated.

“The Long Beach project was not approved, so how did we get the money later?”

Wu Xiaofei suddenly realized: "Dad, it is said that old ginger is more spicy, I have learned another trick."

"Stop flattering me. Do you know what to do next?" Wu Xianlong asked.

"What's there to understand? Isn't it just finding someone you trust and using this to threaten Uncle Zhao to give him money? Uncle Zhao can't even afford the money for his daughter's medical treatment, so where can he get the money? In the end, he still has to come to us for advice, and the time will come." Wu Xiaofei knew everything about it, and it was obvious that he must have done this many times before.

Wu Xianlong nodded with satisfaction: "Well, then you go ahead and do it."

The next day, Zhao Hui returned home and saw a package on the shoe rack, so he asked his daughter: "Ruirui, is this your delivery?"

"Isn't it yours? I see your name written on it." Zhao Rui replied casually.

Zhao Hui saw that his name was really written on it. He curiously opened it and found that it was a USB flash drive. After plugging it into the computer, he found that there was only an MP3 file. When he opened it, he was startled by the sound that came out.

Zhao Hui hurriedly closed the audio file. Just as he was wondering who sent him this recording, his cell phone suddenly rang. It seemed that the caller ID showed that it was from an unfamiliar number.

"Hey."

"Hello, President Zhao. Did you receive the item?"

"What do you want?"

"President Zhao, let's be frank. I spent a lot of money to get this thing, so of course I have to ask you, the president, for some money to spend."

"How much money do you want? I only have 500,000 in cash right now."

"Bah, you're giving half a million to a beggar. Let me tell you, if you give 50 million in cash, one cent less, this recording will end up in the hands of your bank's audit department. Think about it yourself."

"Hello~~~" Zhao Hui was a little panicked when he heard the busy tone on the phone.

But soon, Zhao Hui calmed down. If the other party's purpose was really just to get money, that would be fine. But he was afraid that the other party was greedy and would blackmail him again and again.

Subconsciously, Zhao Hui found Wu Xianlong's phone number from the address book and was about to call him, but then he changed his mind and thought, he had just rejected the other party, and immediately someone was blackmailing him with a recording. Wasn't it too much of a coincidence?

After thinking about it, Zhao Hui dialed Qin Hao's number. He had heard from Su Jianren before that Qin Hao helped him make a lot of money by stock trading and investing, so he should have some assets as well.

After listening to Zhao Hui's description, the first person Qin Hao thought of was Wu Xianlong.

"Zhao Xing, is that recording still there?"

"exist."

"Okay, I'll come over."

"I'd better go to your place. Ruirui has some things that are inconvenient to say at home."

"Okay, then come to the Galaxy Community."

Zhao Hui was stunned for a moment: "Yinhe Community? Isn't this a house owned by Junlong Real Estate?"

"Yes, I bought a house here and just finished renovating it and moved in."

Now Zhao Hui had a general understanding of Qin Hao's financial situation. He heard from Wu Xianlong that a house in Yinhe Community would cost at least five or six million yuan.

However, when Zhao Hui walked into Qin Hao's large flat, he realized that his guess was still conservative. Such a large flat would cost at least tens of millions.

"Before, Su Jianren said that you helped him make a lot of money, but I didn't believe it. Now I am completely convinced. I have worked in Shenzhen Mao Bank for so many years, but I still don't live as comfortably as you. Last time, you almost forced me to sell the house to treat my daughter's illness." Zhao Hui sat on the imported sofa and was filled with emotion.

Qin Hao poured Zhao Hui a glass of water and said, "Zhao Xing, you are joking. If you really want some, there are many people lining up to give it to you. You just don't want it."

"It's not that I didn't want to, it's that I didn't dare. You know, Ruirui was still so young at that time. What would happen to her if something happened to me and I went to jail?" Zhao Hui shook his head with a wry smile.

"In the final analysis, your desire for money is not as strong as Xie Zhiyuan's. He can do anything for money, but you still have a bottom line."

"The bottom line is hard to defend." Zhao Hui suddenly slapped his head and took out the USB flash drive from his bag.

"I was so busy chatting that I almost forgot about the important matter."

Qin Hao took the USB drive and plugged it into the computer, then opened the recording, listened to it, and analyzed it.

"Zhao Xing, the sound of this recording is very clear, and there is no noise around. It should have been recorded in a very quiet environment. Please recall the content of the conversation carefully and see if you can remember which channel it was recorded in."

Zhao Hui frowned and thought hard: "This conversation, yes, I remember it now, it seems to be in my eldest brother's tea room."

"How many people were there in the tea room at that time?"

"It's just me, Xie Zhiyuan and my eldest brother Wu Xianlong. Could it be Xie Zhiyuan who recorded it?"

Qin Hao shook his head and said, "If Xie Zhiyuan had this recording, Shen Jing would have used it as a bargaining chip long ago."

"So you mean, my elder brother?" Zhao Hui looked at Qin Hao in surprise.

"Zhao Xing, please think carefully about whether you have had any conflicts with Mr. Wu recently."

"My eldest brother asked me to help him find a way to get a loan from Shenzhen Mao Bank, but I refused."

Zhao Hui finished speaking and immediately shook his head and said, "It shouldn't be my eldest brother. If he really has a recording, it won't be this part. After all, I didn't approve the Long Beach project. Even if it goes to the audit department, I can shirk it."

"Zhao Xing, have you ever thought about this possibility? This is just Mr. Wu's warning to you, asking you to do what he says. Otherwise, what comes out later may be conclusive evidence."

“My elder brother really knows how to do this.”

Qin Hao said seriously, "As far as I know, Junlong Real Estate's current financial situation is very bad. Once its working capital dries up, it is likely to face bankruptcy and liquidation. Just imagine, a businessman who started from scratch and worked hard for decades to achieve what he has today, would he be willing to watch himself lose everything overnight?"

Although Zhao Hui was reluctant to believe it, considering Wu Xianlong's previous performance, it was possible that he had done it.

"Then what do I do now?"

Seeing Zhao Hui looking at a loss, Qin Hao poured him a glass of water and said, "Since Mr. Wu wants you to ask him for help, why not go? If he asks you to help with the loan, then it is 100% certain that Mr. Wu is the mastermind behind this."

"Well, you have a point." Zhao Hui took a sip of water and gradually calmed down. "But if it was really Wu Xianlong who did it, then the problem will be troublesome. Maybe he recorded every time we were at his house."

Qin Hao said calmly: "Don't worry too much about this. Unless it's a desperate situation, Mr. Wu won't make such a choice that hurts the enemy by a thousand and hurts himself by eight hundred. After all, he is still counting on you to help him with the loan."

Zhao Hui's face was full of bitterness: "How could it become like this? Wu Xianlong once saved my life, and my daughter's eyes are also thanks to him."

"Zhao Xing, people will change, especially when it comes to money. Few people can resist the temptation."

"Yeah, not to mention them, even I am not good at it." Zhao Hui said self-deprecatingly.

Qin Hao did not force Zhao Hui to comfort him, but waited for him to calm down again.

"Xiao Qin, why don't you just pretend you don't know about this matter? I'll handle it myself."

Qin Hao stopped Zhao Hui and said sternly, "Zhao Xing, let's be realistic. You are my backer. If you fall, who will promote me in the future?"

"Besides, I am also one of the managers of the Junlong Real Estate project. If I can't handle it well, my future will also be affected. This is not just your problem."

Zhao Hui patted Qin Hao's shoulder with some emotion: "Finally I didn't make a mistake in choosing him."

At this moment, Zhao Hui clearly felt the difference between Qin Hao and Tao Wuji. If it were Tao Wuji, he would definitely ask him to surrender with righteous words, right?

"So what should we do next?"

Qin Hao thought for a moment and said, "Well, Zhao Xing, you go to Wu Xianlong's house later and tell him that you are being blackmailed. Let's see his reaction first. If Wu Xianlong proposes to use the loan from Junlong Real Estate to pay the 50 million, you should agree to it first and keep them stable. Then I will find a way to find the original file of the recording from Wu Xiaofei."

"Isn't this too dangerous?" Zhao Hui asked hesitantly.

Qin Hao's mouth curled up slightly: "It's okay, I can handle it."

Danger? Come on, the real danger is to offend him.

Finally, Zhao Hui did as Qin Hao said and went to Wu Xianlong's house that night. At first, Wu Xianlong pretended to be affectionate and loyal, but Wu Xiaofei kept crying poor. The father and son performed a double act, which almost made Zhao Hui waver. He wondered if Qin Hao had guessed wrong.

As a result, Wu Xianlong finally showed his true colors and asked Zhao Hui to help him borrow 1 billion from Shenzhen Mao Bank. He would then take out 50 million from the 1 billion to redeem the recording, without Zhao Hui having to pay a penny.

Zhao Hui felt sad. At this moment he was finally sure that all this was a trap set by his good brother, just to make him take out a loan illegally.

After Zhao Hui finally agreed, Wu Xianlong and his son were secretly happy. After Zhao Hui left, Wu Xiaofei spoke even more casually.

"I can see that Uncle Zhao is a tough guy who doesn't respond to soft words. Family affection is useless to him. He has to use leverage to threaten him."

"What nonsense are you talking about, you bastard? If you keep talking nonsense, I will tear your mouth apart!" (End of this chapter)
