The young Korean, upon hearing Ding Fan's words, frowned tightly and after sizing up Ding Fan, pointed at him directly.
"Who are you, and is this a place for such lowlifes to speak?"
Ding Fan, dressed simply, did not look like soone with money or power. At this mont, the young Korean turned to Jiang Anbang and said,
"Vice Mayor Jiang, your security is really lacking. In such an event, to allow such people to enter. I order you now to take this lowlife out imdiately."
"You really think too highly of yourself," Ding Fan said, looking at the young Korean. "You don't have that much authority to order a vice mayor of Huaxia Country."
Ding Fan had dealt with Koreans many tis, and they always acted superior, as if their nation was the only superior one and all other nations consisted rely of lowlifes.
At that mont, the young Korean didn't even acknowledge Ding Fan; he turned to Jiang Anbang and insisted, "Vice Mayor Jiang, get this lowlife out now. Did you not hear ?"
Vice Mayor Jiang was visibly troubled.
What Ding Fan was, others might not know, but how could he not be aware? Such a person with significant connections was not soone Jiang Anbang could afford to provoke.
Yet, the young Korean was also soone Jiang Anbang could not afford to provoke.
This young Korean was Che Guangtai, the second son of Che Zaishi, the chairman of Han Guang Group, a man beyond Jiang Anbang's reach.
At that mont, Vice Mayor Jiang pretended not to hear, his mind racing, pondering over the situation at hand.
"Che Guangtai, it seems you've really learned sothing during my absence, daring to speak to Ding Fan like that," Che Guangzhu stepped out from behind Ding Fan and spoke up.
"Young Master Guangzhu…" At that mont, Lee Jinghao, seeing Che Guangzhu, widened his eyes in shock.
The reason why Lee Jinghao had brought journalists to the municipal governnt was to find Che Guangzhu.
Che Guangzhu had been missing for a week, and many people had assud the worst for him, but unexpectedly, Che Guangzhu appeared.
Not only was Lee Jinghao shocked, but Che Guangtai too was struck dumb, his mouth agape, as he hadn't expected Che Guangzhu to appear here.
"Brother, you're back, I didn't expect you… you've returned…" Che Guangtai's words were jumbled, whether from shock or sothing else.
"It looks like you did not want to return!" Che Guangzhu looked at Che Guangtai displeasedly.
Che Guangzhu's recent expedition to Changsheng had been Che Guangtai's idea. After many subsequent events, Che Guangzhu was not naive; he had realized early on that Che Guangtai had a hand in this.
"Brother… Brother, we're blood brothers. How could I not be happy to see you back? I'm overjoyed," Che Guangtai forced a smile and said to Che Guangzhu.
At this mont, all the reporters in attendance quickly aid their caras and camcorders at Che Guangzhu; the unexpected appearance of the eldest son of the chairman of Han Guang Group would surely be major news tomorrow.
And now, the happiest person on the scene was Jiang Anbang.
The disappearance of Che Guangzhu had been a huge headache for Jiang Anbang, who had been under strict orders from above to locate him.
"Find Che Guangzhu or you can go straight ho," was the direct order given to Jiang Anbang.
After searching for so long without any news, Jiang Anbang had presud Che Guangzhu likely beyond rescue, but seeing him now, Jiang Anbang was ecstatic, almost unable to believe his own eyes.
"During my expedition, when I encountered danger and tried to call for help, I found that all my communication devices had been sabotaged. That was when I realized that my devices had been infected with a virus beforehand…" Che Guangzhu looked at Che Guangtai as he spoke.
Che Guangtai broke out in a cold sweat at that mont. "That can't be right, maybe you saw it wrong…"
The corners of Che Guangzhu's mouth slightly curled up. "Do you think I saw it wrong? Moreover, soone tampered with my electronic compass as well, leading to the most dangerous places… My brother, I rember before I entered the forest, you were the only one who had touched all of our electronic devices and our communication equipnt."
"There must be so misunderstanding here…" Che Guangtai was flustered.
Che Guangzu didn't say much more to Che Guangtai; he turned his head to Lee Jinghao standing beside him. "Secretary-General Lee, please report everything I just ntioned to the chairman. I think dad will clear everything up."
Lee Jinghao glanced at Che Guangtai and then nodded. "I'll call the chairman as soon as I get back."
With the warning delivered, Che Guangtai stood solemnly to one side, lost in thought.
Just then, Che Guangzhu walked up to Che Guangtai, swung his hand back and delivered a slap to Che Guangtai's face.
The incident happened so quickly that everyone present, even Che Guangtai, was caught off guard.
"Brother...why did you hit ?" Che Guangtai looked at his elder brother.
"You just offended Mr. Ding, now go over there and apologize to him imdiately!" Guangzu said sternly.
Mr. Ding?
The people present were confused once again. That Che Guangzu was the son of the chairman of Han Guang Group, to be so respectfully addressed as Mr. Ding, this person must be very influential.
"Mr. Ding?" Che Guangtai looked bewildered. Clearly, he did not know which Mr. Ding he had offended.
"Mr. Ding, my younger brother has offended you greatly. If you are still angry, I will continue to punish him!" Guangzu stood respectfully in front of Ding Fan and said to him.
So that was him!?
Watching Guangzu bowing and nodding to Ding Fan, the dia hurriedly pointed their caras at Ding Fan, and people began speculating about his background.
Jiang Anbang's eyes brightened when he saw this.
Only a real tough character from groups three, five, six, or seven could command such reverence from these Koreans.
Ding Fan rely disliked Che Guangtai's arrogance; as for losing his temper, Ding Fan naturally would not. How could Ding Fan get angry over such an insignificant person?
Ding Fan just slightly shook his head.
"Why are you still standing here? Don't you know to co over here and apologize to Mr. Ding?" Guangzu said coldly to Che Guangtai.
Che Guangtai, clearly very afraid of Guangzu, obediently walked up to Ding Fan following the scolding.
"Mr. Ding, I am sorry. I have offended you before, please forgive ." Che Guangtai said, not forgetting to bow deeply to Ding Fan.
Seeing this scene, the onlookers felt a sense of satisfaction.
You should know, previously Che Guangtai was endlessly arrogant, even daring to shout and scream at the vice mayor of Yungang.
At that mont, Che Guangtai, in front of Ding Fan, acted just like a servant, a stark contrast to his earlier behavior. People even began to doubt whether the previously arrogant Che Guangtai and the now servile Che Guangtai were really the sa person.
"Huaxia Country is not a place where you can show off arrogantly..." Ding Fan simply said.
Hearing this, Che Guangtai's face turned deathly pale.
Che Guangtai truly had not expected that this ordinary-looking man would be the one who saved Guangzu.
"Guangzu, what was that issue about the cross-sea bridge earlier?" Ding Fan then turned away from Che Guangtai and asked Guangzu.
Before Ding Fan had entered, he had heard Che Guangtai making a ruckus about the cross-sea bridge, so now Ding Fan decided to inquire about it.
"Mr. Ding, the cross-sea bridge is an important bridge connecting Ming City and Yungang. With this bridge, the cost of freight between the two cities would be significantly reduced. Our Han Guang Group is planning to invest in this bridge," Guangzu honestly replied.
"Vice Mayor Jiang, did the Huaxia governnt provide any special policies for the Korean's help in constructing this cross-sea bridge?" Ding Fan then asked Vice Mayor Jiang.
When it ca to business, Ding Fan did not believe that Han Guang Group would co to do a good deed and construct a bridge for free.
Although the governnt's dealings with Han Guang Group were confidential, Vice Mayor Jiang did not hide it when Ding Fan asked.
Ding Fan was a notorious figure from Yanjing's group three, five, six, or seven. How could he possibly provoke such a man?
"Sir, Han Guang Group's investnt in the construction of the cross-sea bridge requires us to provide the developnt rights to the city center land for free, and local cotton must be supplied to Han Guang Group as a priority,"
Vice Mayor Jiang frankly said.
Che Guangtai originally thought Ding Fan was simply his brother's lifesaver, but the mont Vice Mayor Jiang spoke, he referred to him as 'Sir.' This left Che Guangtai a bit perplexed.
Being called 'Sir' by Jiang Anbang, the prestige of this man was evidently not trivial. Who exactly was he?
"The Huaxia governnt has given you such favorable policies, yet you still use the construction of the cross-sea bridge to threaten us. Well then, fine, we don't need you for the bridge; we can do it ourselves!" Ding Fan said to Che Guangtai with a displeased look.
As soon as Ding Fan finished speaking, a round of cheers erupted from the surrounding crowd.
"Think you can behave arrogantly just because you are rich? Let tell you, without you, we can still build the cross-sea bridge!"...
