Siheyuan, Me and the Yu Sisters

Although they had not formally reached a cooperation agreement with the two parties, Zhang Renkang and his friends were still very excited. Judging from the atmosphere tonight, the West was not a monolithic entity. At least several countries in Europe were still very willing to cooperate with China.

Zhang Renkang was not worried that Anna and Mark would not be able to convince the board of directors to cooperate after they returned. As long as they were not stupid, they would know what a market with a population of 700 million meant. More importantly, the current environment was fundamentally different from a few years ago, and easing relations was in line with the common needs of both sides.

After returning to Lou's factory, Wang Fang had been waiting here for a long time. This afternoon, Wang Fang did not come to get the address of the cooperation with the Hans and Gauls in the evening, so Zhang Renkang did not find Wang Fang's shadow near the hotel.

After seeing Zhang Renkang, Wang Fang was nervous. After leaving the office this morning, Wang Fang never dreamed that he would be awakened by the mysterious man who was in the same cabin with Zhang Tingan.

The mysterious man gave him three rolls of film and told him to find a way to bring them back to China. If it was impossible, he should destroy the rolls and make sure they didn't fall into anyone's hands.

Wang Fang didn't know what was in the film. Judging from the intensity of the Hong Kong police and John's army's vigilance and search, it must be something extraordinary. Looking at Zhang Renkang, Wang Fang subconsciously became nervous and held the film in his arms.

It was the first time for him to carry out such a mission outside, and his psychological quality was still a little insufficient. Tang Gong saw the anxiety on his face at a glance and said with a smile

"Lao Wang, why didn't I see you this afternoon?"

"Did your superiors give you any instructions?"

Wang Fang forced a smile and said

"The superiors agreed with our opinion and appointed Comrade Zhang Renkang to represent us in the domestic negotiations. They agreed to Mr. Lou's conditions, and the office will soon arrange for someone to contact Mr. Lou. People have been arranged to protect the Lou family's ancestral home and ancestral tomb."

"Mr. Lou can go back and take over at any time."

"The three of us can just follow Comrade Zhang Renkang's instructions."

"Let us celebrate our success when we get back"

Li Ming said excitedly

"That's great"

"Our discussion tonight went very smoothly. As long as they communicate well with the country, we can start the formal cooperation."

"I heard Hans's woman tell the man next to her that their domestic board of directors would not object. As long as it does not involve military technology, these collaborations will not be too difficult."

Zhang Renkang looked at Wang Fang suspiciously. His condition was very abnormal, but now was not the time to ask him. He looked at Lou Huaijin and said

"I mean that Engineer Tang and Translator Li will stay in Mr. Lou's factory starting today to assist Mr. Lou in his negotiations with Ms. Anna and Mr. Mark."

"Captain Wang and I need to go back and coordinate with domestic units to make a specific summary of the number of equipment we need, and send a second delegation to negotiate the details."

The industrial equipment involved this time was not just a little bit, and Zhang Renkang could not coordinate it himself. He could only return to China with the news and ask the Ministry of Industry to organize various units to conduct an investigation.

Of course, the first batch of equipment purchased must be the needs of their Red Star Steel Rolling Mill and Transport Vehicle Manufacturing Plant. The list Zhang Renkang gave to Hans and Gauls was also their own demand list. Because Zhang Tingan and others were detained, Zhang Renkang did not have a specific list of other brother units. They had to report to their superiors and follow their instructions.

Tang Fu didn't have any objection, and Li Ming nodded. If this matter was done well, it would be a great achievement for both of them, especially for Li Ming. With this achievement, he would have less trouble when he returned.

After Lou Huaijin arranged accommodation for several people, he looked at Zhang Renkang and saw Zhang Renkang shook his head. He sighed in his heart and said

"Director Zhang, you guys take a rest, I'll go back first"

Zhang Renkang knew what Lou Huaijin meant and wanted to ask him if he wanted to go home with him, but it was inconvenient to explain now that Wang Fang was here. Secondly, Zhang Renkang had clearly sensed Wang Fang's mood changes just now, especially since Wang Fang did not come as planned in the afternoon, which made Zhang Renkang very curious.

He had to find out what happened to Wang Fang, otherwise they would have to go back, and they must not let anything go wrong.

Zhang Renkang and Wang Fang strolled around the factory and said with a smile:

"My original plan was for a few of us to find a way to sneak across the border. Now that only you and I are going back, it saves a lot of trouble."

"How about we go through the checkpoints separately, cross the Shenzhen River to the southeast, and then take the train back to the city?"

Wang Fang said

"Checkpoint? How do we get through?"

"It's not easy to let go anywhere, right?"

Zhang Renkang smiled and said

"Let the office issue a certificate. Anyway, we have nothing on us except the clothes we carry with us. What can they find out?"

"Otherwise we can only sneak across the border. I asked Director Lou today and he said that the sea is under alert right now and it may be difficult for the smuggling boats to move across the border."

Wang Fang thought for a while and said

"How about we go through Australia and enter the country from there?"

Zhang Renkang looked at Wang Fang in surprise and said

"Brother Wang, are you hiding something from us?"

"Is it appropriate for us to know?"

Wang Fang shook his head and smiled bitterly at Zhang Renkang and said

"What can happen to me? I'm just worried that we don't have official proof. If we are searched by the Hong Kong police, it will be a big trouble."

Zhang Renkang smiled, and seeing that Wang Fang was unwilling to speak, he said meaningfully:

“Well, that’s a problem.”

"However, as long as there is nothing wrong with us, the Hong Kong side can't do anything to us."

"Weren't Secretary Zhang and the others released?"

“There is no point in Hong Kong detaining us”

“The country will not ignore us”

"The biggest problem now is that the smuggling boats can't go out to sea, and if you get caught on the smuggling boats, it will be even more troublesome."

Wang Fang nodded, was silent for a while and said

"Okay, let's find a way to get through the checkpoint tomorrow."

Wang Fang walked towards his room. His mind was in a mess today. He never expected that he would be suddenly stopped and woken up by Captain Liu, who handed him a film related to the safety of the country and asked him to find a way to take it back.

A few minutes after he left, there was a burst of gunfire.

Then, Captain Liu was surrounded by a group of John soldiers who suddenly rushed out and trapped him in an alley not far from the office. Then a body was dragged out.

Wang Fang now knew that the thing in his hand was the source of the unrest in Hong Kong Island in the past few days. Now his mission was to find a way to escort it back and not let the martyrs die in vain. But now he was suffering in his heart.

Wang Fang didn't know whether he should tell Zhang Renkang the truth. He was worried that the leak would cause problems with the film, and he was also afraid that he would not be able to complete the mission.

The security check at the border must be very strict. When they came in, they were stripped down to their underwear and searched. It can be seen that John didn't care about the dignity of the mainland at all. If he had to pass the border check, how would he take the three rolls of film back? This was an almost impossible problem.
