"Miss Nie, your experience in business is indeed extensive, but your life experience is not so rich. If your life experience were rich, you would discover that there are many perverted people in life. These perverted people are all people with psychological problems. Take this pretty boy for example. I looked at his file and found that he never had a biological mother, only a stepmother. His stepmother was a woman with short hair who wore very short skirts and abused the pretty boy since childhood. Later, the stepmother fell ill and died when the pretty boy was only in primary school. It was at that time that a deep shadow was cast in the pretty boy's heart."
Chen Feng explained patiently.
"Chen Feng, you are truly a jack of all trades, knowing everything. Now you even understand psychology. I have to admit defeat."
Nie Xiaosu said admiringly.
"I don't want to learn so much. However, if I want to survive in the political arena, I need to understand more, otherwise, I can't handle various situations. Think about it, why are many big shots in politics nowadays people with extremely high IQs? It's because the probability of unexpected events in politics is the highest. People with average intelligence are often caught off guard by sudden accidents. While people with high intelligence and extensive knowledge can easily deal with various accidents. Just like this time, the task that Elder Qian assigned me, if I didn't understand psychology, I could have easily messed up things with the female leader. In that case, wouldn't I have offended Elder Qian? You should know the consequences of offending Elder Qian from the Foreign Trade Bureau."
Chen Feng continued to explain in detail.
"Chen Feng, after hearing all this, I am more determined than ever to stay away from politics. Having to constantly worry about dealing with accidents every day, I fear I would lose ten years of my life. I finally understand why there are fewer female leaders in politics; the political environment is too harsh."
Nie Xiaosu said with lingering fear.
Chen Feng could only smile.
For Chen Feng, dealing with various accidents every day was quite锻炼 (duànliàn -锻炼 is a Chinese word, so it should be translated or omitted. Let's assume it means 'character-building' or 'training').
"By the way, Chen Feng, Accountant Wu and Elder Qian, we've buttered them up completely. Is Hongfeng Electronics Factory about to take off?"
Nie Xiaosu changed the subject.
"We can't celebrate too early yet."
Chen Feng replied with a serious expression.
"Why can't we celebrate too early? Accountant Wu, I play mahjong with her every day and give her money, she's already like my sister. Elder Qian, you handled the matter he assigned you, the one about the female leader being pestered by the pretty boy, so well. Why can't we celebrate too early?"
Nie Xiaosu asked with confusion.
"Remember, unexpected events in the political arena are more frequent than in any other environment. Elder Qian might be powerful one moment, and the next he might run into trouble."
Chen Feng explained calmly.
Politics is like stocks.
With stocks, you can never declare victory until the money is in your pocket.
Similarly, in politics, you can never declare victory until retirement.
"Chen Feng, are you overthinking? Regardless, Elder Qian is the head of the Foreign Trade Bureau in San Dong City and is currently riding high in his career. How could he..."
Before Nie Xiaosu could finish speaking, her secretary entered the office with a look of terror.
"Miss Nie, something's wrong, something terrible has happened."
The secretary exclaimed incoherently.
"What's wrong?"
Nie Xiaosu was bewildered.
"For the European order we signed last week, we've already purchased the materials. The Foreign Trade Bureau has suddenly issued a document prohibiting exports. This is an EU order, and we prepared all the raw materials according to EU standards. Now the Foreign Trade Bureau has suddenly called a halt, and we're going to lose a lot of money."
The secretary explained with fear.
"What? The Foreign Trade Bureau issued a document to Hongfeng Electronics Factory? How is that possible? The head of the Foreign Trade Bureau, Elder Qian, is good friends with Chen Feng. And the head of the European Affairs Section of the Foreign Trade Bureau, Accountant Wu, is my sister. How could they not notify us in advance about such a major issue?"
Nie Xiaosu said with disbelief.
"It happened so suddenly. I heard they say Elder Qian is under investigation."
The secretary said word for word.
"What? Elder Qian is under investigation? How is that possible? Elder Qian was in contact with Chen Feng a few days ago, so how could he be investigated?"
Nie Xiaosu continued to express her disbelief.
"I heard they say one of Elder Qian's old classmates was arrested, so Elder Qian was implicated and is also under investigation."
The secretary explained.
"I see, I understand. It's okay. Order them to take three days off. Don't panic, the leadership of Hongfeng Electronics Factory will handle it properly."
Nie Xiaosu said, suppressing her immense fear.
If Elder Qian were truly imprisoned, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"Chen Feng, what do we do? What do we do?..."
Nie Xiaosu said with a crying tone.
"Stay calm."
Chen Feng soothed Nie Xiaosu.
"Elder Qian is about to go to prison, how can I stay calm? Once Elder Qian is really imprisoned, it means all our investments will go down the drain. How can Hongfeng Electronics Factory possibly bear such a loss?"
Nie Xiaosu said with fear.
"Things haven't reached that point yet. Elder Qian isn't in prison yet, and there's still room for maneuver."
Chen Feng replied, feigning composure.
Under normal circumstances, the possibility of Elder Qian going to prison is very high.
Throughout China's history, such events are very common.
Simply put, it's being implicated.
You are not wrong, but if you know the person who committed the offense and are very familiar with them, then coincidentally, this is an opportunity to bring you down.
This is why in ancient China, when a big shot fell, a large group of people would be implicated and fall with him.
To be honest, saving Elder Qian this time is not an easy task.
However, no matter how difficult, Elder Qian must be rescued.
This is the drawback of politics being intertwined with business.
When politics and business are intertwined, and political power is stable, businesses can soar with the support of political power.
At the same time, once political power collapses, that business is also considered finished.
Prosperity together, ruin together.
Such events are too common in China's history.
The most typical example is the Hu Xueyan case.
Hu Xueyan became the richest man by relying on politics. However, when the influential figure behind Hu Xueyan died, Hu Xueyan's commercial empire instantly collapsed.
What is history?
History is the repetition of past glories and tragedies generation after generation.
You see his mansion rise, and you see his mansion crumble.
Even though we know this is the pattern throughout history, we cannot avoid it and still fall into it.
Fortunately, Elder Qian has not yet been imprisoned this time, and he can still be rescued.
If Elder Qian were imprisoned, then I'm sorry, even a celestial being couldn't save him.
The reason is simple: once Elder Qian is imprisoned, all the documents he signed will be void.
Right now, the Foreign Trade Bureau has only ordered Hongfeng Electronics Factory to suspend, not directly declared it void.
There is no time to lose; Elder Qian must be bailed out as soon as possible, otherwise, once Elder Qian is locked up, even a divine being cannot save him.
Therefore, Chen Feng immediately went to Elder Qian's wife.
Elder Qian's wife is not an ordinary woman; she was the reliance for Elder Qian's rise.
At this juncture, to find a solution to the problem, one must rely on Elder Qian's wife.
"Madam Qian, this is an urgent matter. Can you tell me who to approach to get Elder Qian out? Just tell me, and Hongfeng Electronics Factory will take full responsibility for the financial matters."
Chen Feng said directly.
"There's no need to look for anyone. It was my idea for Elder Qian to be called in for investigation."
Madam Qian replied calmly and composedly.
Chen Feng's mind exploded. "Damn it, what's going on? The wife is openly framing her husband?"
