#118 - The slap in the face comes too fast

Tang Chao knew the other party would contact him, but he didn't expect it to happen right at the airport, and by a conference staff member.

This was too fast.

And he didn't know if this person was originally a conference staff member, or if they had just joined recently?

But none of that mattered. Since the other party had already come, the confrontation had begun from this moment.

This receptionist was called Calvin. After directing two people to load Tang Chao's group of four's luggage into the car, he beckoned everyone to get in and leave.

This time, accommodation was included, with a designated hotel, so they could go directly there.

The other party had driven an eight-seater MPV. There were three of them, and Tang Chao's team was four people, a perfect fit.

The two subordinates sat in the driver's and co-driver's seats, Calvin and Tang Chao sat in the middle, and Zhang Qin, Li Bing, and Zhang Liyan sat in the back. Along the way, Tang Chao saw what it meant to be talkative.

If you knew, you'd say this was a receptionist for the Commercial Moon Conference.

If you didn't, you'd think Calvin was a tour guide in a tourist group.

He knew all the attractions in Los Santos like the back of his hand.

"Mr. Tang, look over there. That's the famous Manhattan Beach in Los Santos. Many big directors like to film there."

"This conference will last for five days. You can bring the two beautiful ladies and that engineer gentleman to sunbathe here. It will be a very wonderful experience."

"You are all so young. It's different from what I imagined representatives from a space company would be like. It's amazing that you can achieve such great things at such a young age."

"By the way, as young people, I don't know if you like watching movies. If you have time, I can take you to Hollywood. Although this conference has film screenings, it won't go to Hollywood…"

This Mr. Calvin was about thirty years old, a seemingly稳重 American, but very talkative. The key was that he could speak fluent Chinese, which surprised Zhang Qin and the others.

Usually, for this kind of conference, especially one held in America, it would definitely be all in English. They didn't expect to have a Chinese-speaking receptionist this time, which was surprising.

While his three teammates were surprised, Tang Chao wasn't surprised at all. He knew what this person was here to do.

This person was very clever, because there were other people in the car, so he didn't say his direct purpose. He just introduced them to Los Santos along the way, and didn't instill any system issues, but only talked about the scenery, architecture, and culture of Los Santos, introducing all the good things.

This kind of subtle influence is actually quite terrible. In China, many people fall for this.

Tang Chao was listening absentmindedly when he suddenly noticed that after they turned into a street, the shops on both sides of the street were boarded up with planks.

He had seen this scene before. America had had such an incident in the middle of last year, because some people took advantage of the protests to carry out robbery and expand the chaos, so many shops would board up their doors and windows.

However, these planks were not very strong. If they were targeted, they would be quickly torn apart.

Even because of this "iron chain connecting ships" behavior, it was easy for people to pour oil on them and then set them on fire.

These planks were destroyed during the protests, reinstalled after the protests ended, and then destroyed again, and then reinstalled…

The protests lasted for a long time, the protesters' wishes were not realized, the shops also suffered heavy losses, and the plank factories might have become the biggest winners.

So much time has passed, why is this happening again?

"Mr. Calvin, what's going on?"

Tang Chao interrupted Calvin's introduction to a building and pointed to the planks outside and asked.

"Uh…"

Calvin actually knew about this earlier than Tang Chao, and also planned to avoid this place, but the designated hotel was on this street, and they could only pass through here.

He had just tried his best to prevent them from looking down, but instead directly drew their attention to the top of the building, to talk about a large sculpture on the top of the building.

He didn't expect Tang Chao to point it out.

"This, we Americans advocate freedom and equality. The people have the right to express their wishes. We will not interfere in any way. Some people want to hold a small protest here. These shops, in order to show their support, have chosen to close down, even at the cost of losing money, to give them the venue."

With a turn of his mind, Calvin came up with this reason. He felt like he was a clever little ghost.

Hearing this reason, Tang Chao almost laughed out loud. This was even more shameless than the operators of the American Embassy's account on Weibo, really turning the stinky into the fragrant.

Since he had let this guy say so many good things before, Tang Chao certainly didn't plan to let him go, so he put on his acting skills and nodded in understanding.

"Oh, so that's how it is. The owners of these shops are really understanding."

"But even if they close, why do they need to block them with wooden boards? Wouldn't that block the beautiful and exquisite goods inside?"

"…"

Calvin roared in his mind on the spot.

「Why do you have so many questions? They just want to block the exquisite goods, otherwise they will definitely be robbed, fuck!」

But on the surface, he still explained with a smile: "This should be the current trend. The shops are closed, of course, the doors must be locked."

"I remember in ancient China, shops had to put on that kind of door panel. This is similar. This city has recently become popular with the Chinese style."

Awesome!

This time Tang Chao personally certified that this guy was really a clever little ghost.

While they were talking, they arrived at the designated hotel. Calvin didn't waste any words and quickly helped them check in.

"Mr. Tang, remember to gather downstairs at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. There will be a bus to take you to the venue. I have to go to the airport to pick up other teams, so I won't disturb you."

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Calvin. You've worked hard."

"You're welcome. This is what I should do."

After explaining this, Calvin immediately slipped away, leaving Tang Chao and the other three to look at each other and smile silently.

The boss was really silently mocking people just now, those small knives, swish, swish.

The four walked into the elevator with laughter and went to their rooms. They had been on the plane for a day. Although Tang Chao had spent money to buy business class tickets, the plane was not as good as the ground after all.

They had to rest.

Outside, Calvin left and made a phone call.

"Yes, I have already contacted Tang Chao. The initial effect was good, but unfortunately, because of the wooden boards on Oak Street, all my previous hints were useless."

"Yes, he brought those two female assistants over, which is similar to what was said in the previous report."

"Based on my judgment, this time was not successful, and the wooden boards broke the fairy tale. The next time I appear to chat with him, the effect should be greatly reduced. I suggest using Plan B."

"Okay, who is the executor of Plan B? Where do I connect with her?"

"Who is it? Jenny? That's no problem, no one knows better how to deal with men than her."

The third update is over, asking for votes and rewards, good night~
