Life 1984

After what happened last night, Chen Meilin refused to talk to her mother, but she and Li Yunhai still talked and laughed.

In her eyes, Guo Wanhua is her biggest love rival.

After dinner, Li Yunhai poured Chen Meilin a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Meilin, I have something I want to talk to you about."

Chen Meilin shyly took a sip of wine, her face flushed like a peach and plum.

"Brother, I also have something to tell you." Chen Meilin held her cheek in her hand and looked at Li Yunhai with squinted eyes.

Li Yunhai looked at Guo Wanhua and said, "Well, you speak first."

Guo Wanhua coughed lightly and said, "I'll go out and pay the bill."

Li Yunhai knew that she wanted to avoid it, and thought that it would be okay if she was not here. Some words might hurt her self-esteem.

Guo Wanhua stood up and left gracefully.

Chen Meilin pursed her lips and smiled: "Brother, I thought a lot last night, and I figured it out."

Li Yunhai said: "What do you want to understand? Tell me about it."

Chen Meilin bit the corner of her mouth and said, "Brother, I love you! I want to confess my love to you boldly!"

Li Yunhai was shocked!
He talked to Chen Meilin just to show off the matter, but Chen Meilin said it first!
Chen Meilin stood up, squatted next to Li Yunhai, held his hand, raised her head and said:

"Brother, you are the only man I have ever loved! You are the only man I love in my life."

"Huh?" Li Yunhai wanted to help her up, but Chen Meilin had to squat down and couldn't even pull her up.

"Brother, I know what you want to say to me. You want to say that you have a family. But I don't care."

"Meilin, you can't not care. If you don't care about yourself, you also have to care about your mother's identity and thoughts."

"My mommy? When she was with my father, my father also had a family. What qualifications does she have to educate me?"

These words were said sharply, leaving Li Yunhai speechless to refute.

"Brother, I don't force it, I don't ask for anything. I don't ask you to marry me. I have never had such an idea. Loving someone is my ability, my appeal, and the evidence that I am alive. You and Even mommy can’t take away my right to love.”

"Of course." Li Yunhai muttered, "You have the ability to love others, and you also have the freedom to love others."

"So, I love you. This is my business. You can't interfere with me, let alone take it away."

"this?"

Li Yunhai wanted to persuade Chen Meilin, but she got involved.

"Meilin, what happened between your mommy and me is a long story." Li Yunhai said, "When your mommy and I met, I also knew him and you. You know this."

"I know! My mommy likes you, doesn't she?"

"Yes. Of course I like her too."

"You like her too? She is so old, how can you like her? I am young and beautiful, not better looking than her?"

"Haha, this is not the case. You are young and beautiful, and I like you too. This is a yearning for beautiful things. But your mother - although she is more than ten years older than you, she has an indescribable charm. The beauty of a mature woman is incomparable to that of a young girl.”

"Then you can like me if you like me! I will grow up in the future. If you like me, you can not only like me when I am young, but you can also like me when I have mature charm in the future."

Li Yunhai groaned.

Chen Meilin is really good at talking.

Wearing a short skirt, she squatted in front of Li Yunhai.

Li Yunhai lowered his head and saw the beautiful scenery in her heart.

That piece of white flowers dazzled Li Yunhai's eyes.

"Ahem!" Li Yunhai helped her up and said, "Meilin, sit down first and let's talk properly."

He has decided to make the relationship clear no matter what.

However, when he faced Chen Meilin's innocent smile, he was speechless.

What should he say?

Just say that Guo Zhian is his and Guo Wanhua's child?

At this time, Li Yunhai's cell phone rang.

He took out his cell phone and answered.

"Hey."

Chen Hong's panicked voice came: "Mr. Li, something happened! Our mobile phone was stolen in the hotel."

Li Yunhai's voice deepened: "The phone was stolen? How many phones were lost?"

Chen Hong said: "All mobile phones are gone!"

Li Yunhai took a breath of cold air.

They brought two thousand mobile phones here, but only sold a few dozen of them, and the rest were all missing? Then this loss is tragic!
I couldn't understand a few words on the phone.

Li Yunhai said: "I'm coming over now."

He put down his cell phone and said to Chen Meilin: "You and mommy go home together, I have something to do. We will discuss our matters later."

Chen Meilin had heard the conversation just now and asked, "Lost your phone? Call the police!"

Li Yunhai waved his hand and said nothing else.

Guo Wanhua was outside on the veranda, leaning on the railing to watch the fish play.

Li Yunhai told her, and then hurried to the Oriental Hotel.

During the Canton Fair, Huacheng Street is full of people, including domestic exhibitors, foreign traders, many people joining in the fun, and vendors doing small business.

Because the Dongfang Hotel is built opposite the Canton Fair venue, it is particularly crowded.

The hotel itself was full of people, plus the sales staff and visiting guests, it was very lively.

Every time Sihai Group participates in the Canton Fair, the delegation will stay at the Oriental Hotel, just for the sake of proximity.

I have lived here for several years and have never lost anything before.

Li Yunhai rushed to the hotel.

Chen Hong, Sun Lu and others were all there, arguing endlessly.

Sun Lu blamed Chen Hong for their poor guarding.

Chen Hong said that the things were thrown away in your room, how can you blame us?
Sun Lu, like Chen Hong, is a shareholder representative, but when she first booked a room, there was only one suite available. Chen Hong showed his sense of ownership and gave his only apartment to Sun Lu.

Almost half of the goods were piled in Sun Lu's suite.

One box contains 24 mobile phones, and there are 40 boxes stacked in Sun Lu's suite.

The others were placed in Chen Hong's and other people's rooms.

What is missing now are the 40 boxes in Sun Lu's room, a total of 960 mobile phones, worth more than million.

Sun Lu was anxious and annoyed when she knew that tens of millions of goods had been lost, but she blamed Chen Hong and others for their poor supervision.

After Li Yunhai arrived, he shouted: "Why are you making such a fuss? Can you bring the goods back?"

Sun Lu and Chen Hong just shut up.

Li Yunhai looked at the goods in other rooms and found that they were intact, except for the mobile phones in Sun Lu's room. None of them were left behind!
"When did you notice that he was missing?" Li Yunhai asked.

Sun Lu said: "We went downstairs to eat. When we came up after eating, the goods were gone."

Li Yunhai said: "After you got off work, did you go back to your room? Were the goods still there at that time?"

Sun Lu said: "I went back to the room. I washed my hands and face before going downstairs to eat. All the goods were there at that time. I remember it clearly!"

Li Yunhai said: "Who else was in the room at that time?"

Sun Lu said: "It's just me! Who else can it be? Mr. Li, you don't doubt me, do you? How could I steal my own company's goods?"

Chen Hong sneered and said, "It's hard to say that there are not many cases of self-defense and self-stealing in this world?"

Sun Lu said angrily: "Chen Hong, what did you say? Do you dare to doubt me?"

Li Yunhai said: "Okay, stop arguing! Have you called the police?"

Chen Hongdao: "Called the police. Two policemen came, checked in and left, saying they would investigate."

Li Yunhai thought to himself that during the Canton Fair, the police were very busy and would not have much time to investigate this case.

He pondered for a moment and said: "It will take a certain amount of time for them to move 40 boxes of mobile phones down from the 9th floor. After you have eaten and gone upstairs, there is no trace of the thieves. It can be seen that they have been targeting you for a long time. Sun Lu She lived in a suite, and the thieves thought she was the person in charge of the mobile phone company, so they stole her room."

Zhao Jinping said: "Mr. Li, the hotel is also responsible. This security measure is terrible! We have lost tens of millions of dollars in goods, and we should ask them for compensation."

Li Yunhai said: "Of course we have to do this. Put pressure on the hotel. They have a good relationship with the local police, and they will also put pressure on the police. In this way, our goods will be easier to find. Zhao Boss, you go talk to the hotel, and our legal department can be used if necessary."

Zhao Jinping said okay and turned around to negotiate with the hotel management.

Li Yunhai asked Sun Ludao: "Remember carefully, are there any suspicious people in the past two days? If they want to attack you, it cannot be a temporary move. They must have been following you for a long time."

Sun Lu frowned in thought.

Chen Hong said: "Besides her having the key to the hotel room door, who else has the key?"

"Did you open the door with a key?" Li Yunhai asked.

"Anyway, the door and key are intact." Chen Hong said, "So it's very suspicious!"

Sun Lu took out her key and said, "I have a key. I keep my key with me, okay? Look!"

Chen Hong asked: "Did you forget to close the door when you went out?" Sun Lu said: "Do you think I'm a fool? Don't I even know about closing the door casually? There are so many goods in my room, I am more cautious than anyone else! "

Chen Hong said: "Anyway, the goods were lost in your room, you must be responsible."

Sun Lu was almost crying after being scolded!
Li Yunhai patted Chen Hong's hand and said: "Forget it, let's see if we can find the goods first. You must keep an eye on the goods in your room and don't lose them again. If you lose them, there will be no chance of the next Canton Fair. The goods can be sold, and you can go home early."

Sun Lu wiped the corners of her eyes and said, "I will definitely find them!"

Li Yunhai asked: "Who are they?"

Sun Lu said in a daze: "What a thief!"

Li Yunhai said: "Do you know who they are? Do you know where they are? Do you remember them? Is there anyone suspicious?"

Sun Lu shook her head blankly: "I work and rest normally every day. After eating, I stay in the room and watch TV. I don't go anywhere."

Professor Ni said: "Mr. Li, I wonder if the hotel has installed surveillance cameras? Can we check it?"

Digital surveillance video began in the 20s. Surveillance technology at this stage began to use digital hard disk video recorders, that is, DVR, as the core equipment, realizing the transformation from analog to digital.

The small hotel must not be able to pretend, it doesn't have the conditions yet.

A big hotel like the Oriental Hotel might actually have surveillance cameras installed.

Even if they are not installed on every floor, they should be installed at the front and rear exits and in the elevator room, right?

Li Yunhai arranged for someone to check whether there was surveillance.

After checking, it turned out that surveillance equipment was actually installed.

As Li Yunhai expected, the hotel only installed monitoring equipment in the main activity areas.

The hotel already knew that the mobile phone was stolen, which attracted the attention of the management and immediately called in surveillance cameras to check.

All 40 boxes of mobile phones were emptied in less than an hour.

If there are only one or two people, it will take many trips back and forth, which will be very eye-catching.

If many people commit the crime together, it will be very eye-catching.

But after investigating and monitoring, no one was seen leaving with the box!

Did these people open the box, put the cell phone in the suitcase, and evacuate?

But during this period of time, the suspicious person pushing the box was not seen leaving.

The hotel called the police again.

The attitude of the police officers who responded this time was obviously different.

They carefully investigated and collected evidence, and carefully checked the surveillance with a keen professional vision.

Still found nothing.

Within the visual range of the surveillance, no one appeared with suitcases or packaging boxes.

Li Yunhai asked the hotel manager, did these surveillances cover all exits?
The manager thought for a while and said: "There are two side doors that are not monitored. One is the back door of the kitchen, and the other is the door leading to the outside from the utility room."

Monitoring is installed in the elevator, but not in the fire stairwell.

After coming down from the fire stairs, there is a corridor leading directly to the utility room!

Li Yunhai said: "The thief took the fire stairs, and then moved through the utility room! Where is the surveillance near the utility room? You can see the surveillance near the utility room!"

The manager shook his head: "Our hotel installed surveillance cameras for foreign security reasons. Ordinary places do not have the capability to install them."

Li Yunhai said: "Who is in charge of the utility room? Whoever can open the door there will be responsible!"

The police also thought of this and immediately arranged for the two workers guarding the utility room to be brought in for questioning.

The workers were trembling with fear and kept saying they didn't know what happened.

During dinner, they were also eating. The door of the utility room was open, not closed, not locked, and they did not pay attention to whether anyone passed by.

Those who are familiar with this passage are definitely not outsiders. Only people inside the hotel can skillfully escape through this passage.

The police dispatched police officers everywhere to look for suspicious clues.

The hotel also took action to conduct confidential interviews with all employees.

The quarrel lasted until 11:30 p.m., but no result came out.

Li Yunhai and others were tired, so they could only disperse first, hoping to wait for police investigation.

Back in Zhiyuan, Li Yunhai felt tired.

He sat down on the sofa and didn't move for a long time.

Tens of millions of dollars worth of goods were lost. This was the first time this had happened since the founding of Sihai Group.

His original idea was simple. The mobile phone was small and could be placed in a hotel room for easy access to and from get off work.

Who knew this would happen?
If I had known earlier, I might as well have put it in the branch's warehouse!
There are people on duty in the warehouse 24 hours a day, but it takes a little time and effort to pick up the goods back and forth.

What was lost was the goods from Sun Lu's room. It was impossible to say that Li Yunhai did not doubt Sun Lu at all.

It's difficult to do partnership business, and that's why it's so difficult.

Not only do you have to guard against outside competitors, you also have to guard against your partners.

Su Hong and Liu Ruyi had already gone to bed. They probably didn't receive the call and didn't know about the theft of their mobile phones.

Otherwise, they would definitely not be able to sleep.

Li Yunhai sat for a while and was about to go upstairs to rest.

The phone rang.

Guo Wanhua called and asked: "Yunhai, have you found the lost mobile phone?"

"No. I have no clue." Li Yunhai took a deep breath, "I don't know who stole it. The police can't find any clues."

"So many mobile phones disappeared into thin air?"

"We now suspect that it was moved downstairs through the fire escape and then moved from the utility room."

"Is there no surveillance on the floor?"

"Only the elevator entrance is monitored."

"Strange, I always feel like something is wrong. Sun Lu is a woman, she doesn't drink, and she should eat very quickly, let's count half an hour! In such a short time, 9 boxes of mobile phones have to be moved from the 40th floor, and it's climbing Stairs? How many people are there? With so many people acting together, how can they not attract the attention of the staff? If one or two people steal, it will take twenty trips back and forth, right? It won't take half an hour to move."

Li Yunhai said: "That's right! This case is full of weirdness! I even wonder if someone was watching and stealing."

"Sun Lu? That's not the case." Guo Wanhua said, "Ten million is a lot, but it's such a big risk! She's not that stupid, right?"

Li Yunhai said: "Let's not talk about this case for now. How is Meilin's mood?"

Guo Wanhua smiled and said: "She is very good, just like a normal person. How did you talk to her? How did you talk so well?"

Li Yunhai smiled bitterly and said: "I received a call from Chen Hong before I even talked to her. Alas, to be honest, I'm a little speechless, mainly because Meilin is so old and I don't know what to say."

Guo Wanhua said quietly: "Then stop talking, let everything rot in our stomachs and pass away with the wind!"

Li Yunhai said: "Sister Guo, can your feelings for me really disappear with the wind and treat it as if it never existed?"

Guo Wanhua sighed and said, "Go to sleep, good night."

Li Yunhai put down his cell phone and went upstairs to sleep.

He didn't bother Su Hong anymore.

Lying on the bed, Li Yunhai's mind was in turmoil.

He was thinking about Chen Meilin for a while, and then he was thinking about the progress of the cell phone theft case.

It’s been very rough lately!
Work, relationships, all aspects have encountered resistance.

Life is not always smooth sailing, there will always be various ups and downs.

Li Yunhai folded his arms and gradually fell asleep.

He had a very strange dream.

In the dream, he walked into a maze. He kept running and walking, but he couldn't find the exit.

The fog gradually dissipated, and the scenery in front of me became clear. It was actually the corridors and rooms of the Oriental Hotel.

Li Yunhai woke up with a start.

Thinking about this dream, I feel baffled.

Do you really think about it every day and dream about it at night?
He got up and washed.

After breakfast, Su Hong and Liu Ruyi took Li Yunhai's car to the Canton Fair.

Liu Ruyi is helping with publicity.

Su Hong asked: "Mr. Li, did you come back very late last night? We didn't wait for you, so we went to bed first."

Li Yunhai said: "Well, the Dongfang Hotel was stolen. We lost tens of millions of mobile phones."

Su Hong and Liu Ruyi were both surprised and asked what happened?

Li Yunhai gave an overview of the case.

Liu Ruyi suddenly said: "Since it is impossible to move them away so quickly, are those stolen mobile phones still left in the hotel?" (End of Chapter)
