179: Chapter 179 Tian Jun, who never learns his lesson

Regarding Intel 3, although Chen Shaoping was angry, he was much calmer.

He just knew that Tian Jun had work to do again.

At this moment.

Tian Jun, who was getting familiar with his new work environment, didn't know he was being targeted by Chen Shaoping again.

Yesterday.

Lu Sihai As Desired was promoted to Deputy Director of the Municipal Bureau, and Tian Jun also went from deputy captain to captain.

Tan Zhuo took over his former position as deputy captain.

But just as he started work this morning, a new transfer order arrived at the Baiyun District Police Station.

Tian Jun, the captain of Baiyun District, immediately became a captain of the Municipal Bureau.

He was still working under Lu Sihai.

Just as he had finished tidying his desk, a pleasant ringtone sounded.

Seeing it was a call from Chen Shaoping, the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

He thought to himself, "Da Ping is really sensible. Knowing I just arrived at a new place and need to solve a case to establish my authority, he immediately brought me new intel."

He answered the phone without hesitation and said happily, "Da Ping, you know I've been transferred to the Municipal Bureau as a captain, so you're calling to congratulate me, right?"

"Your intel is really accurate."

After saying that, he laughed a few times.

When Chen Shaoping heard Tian Jun's smug and arrogant tone on the phone, he felt a wave of annoyance.

I gave you the intel, and your promotion was like a rocket.

You haven't even fulfilled your promise of a big meal, yet you have the nerve to act like that.

"Hmph!"

Chen Shaoping gave a cold snort and said in a casual tone, "Oh my! Four Jun, you've been promoted. Then you must be very busy these next few days."

"I originally had some intel about a drug case to tell you, but since you're busy, I'll just go directly to the Anti-Drug Brigade to report it."

The corners of Tian Jun's upturned mouth immediately flattened, and he cursed himself inwardly, "Why did I have to show off in front of Da Ping? Now look what happened!"

He quickly changed his expression and said in a flattering tone, "Don't, Da Ping. It's the same if you tell me."

"But you're so busy, won't it interfere with celebrating your promotion?"

Tian Jun really wanted to slap his own mouth. Why couldn't he ever learn his lesson and always wanted to talk big in front of Chen Shaoping?

"Da Ping, I'm not busy, not busy at all. My promotion is all thanks to you. Without you, I'd probably still be an Assistant Police Officer."

Hearing this, Chen Shaoping felt physically and mentally pleased, with an urge to shout 'Refreshing!'

"Call me 'Brother'."

"Brother Ping, Brother."

"Hey!"

Seeing how sensible Tian Jun was being, Chen Shaoping told him everything about Intel 3.

And reminded him to make sure to investigate the universities more.

After the call with Tian Jun ended, Chen Shaoping went straight to Li Qian's office.

Manager Cai and Chen Cheng had already gone to prepare separately, seeing that the three of them had already settled the arrangements for the movie.

"Da Ping, I was just about to look for you, and here you are," Li Qian said with a serious expression.

"I came to ask how the contract negotiations between Director Lin and the company are going?" Chen Shaoping asked.

Li Qian was somewhat surprised; usually, Chen Shaoping wouldn't ask about contract matters at all.

Why today...

Did something happen?

"It's already been negotiated. The contract has been given to him. Once he signs it and the company stamps it, it's a done deal," Li Qian said, puzzled.

Chen Shaoping's face darkened, feeling somewhat dissatisfied with Director Lin's actions. Even if you're talented, it's not like I can't do without you.

"Sister Qian, notify Director Lin that either he signs by the end of the day, or the contract is void."

Chen Shaoping's tone was firm as he continued, "Sister Qian, keep a close eye on the subsequent promotion of 'crazy stone', the cinemas, and other matters. Don't let anything go wrong."

Although Li Qian didn't know why, she still replied, "Alright, Da Ping. I'll arrange it immediately."

"Did something happen?"

Chen Shaoping smiled faintly. "Our Great Director Lin is having trouble making up his mind; I'm just giving him a little push."

After hearing his words and combining them with the message she just received from Wang Xinning, Li Qian had a guess.

"Tiantian Media also approached Director Lin?"

"Yes," Chen Shaoping answered truthfully, then added, "Sister Qian, look for two more people who can replace Huang Wuqing and Chen Ningci."

"Is that necessary? Those two are completely dispensable in the Feier Band. Do they really want to jump ship?" Li Qian was puzzled.

"Maybe they think they're someone important?"

"If they leave the Feier Band, they're nothing. Who would care about them?"

"Everyone has their own ambitions. However, whenever the company discusses contract matters with them, it's best to record the whole process to prevent them from biting back in the future."

"Alright, I'll arrange it."

"Sister Qian, we need to take this seriously. Not just the artists, but the management staff, agents, and so on as well."

"Okay."

After Chen Shaoping finished speaking, he turned to leave, but at the door, he looked back and asked, "Sister Qian, was there something you wanted to see me about just now?"

"It's already resolved." Li Qian smiled and waved her hand. "Wang Xinning just told me that someone from Tiantian Media contacted her to poach her. I wanted to tell you, but I didn't expect you already knew."

"Oh, that's good then."

"Sister Qian, if someone wants to leave, let's not force them to stay. Just follow the contract."

After adding that, Chen Shaoping left straight away.

...

At the same time.

At a private auction.

Xu Ting and a fat old man were sitting in Private Box No. 5. From inside the box, they could clearly see every antique on the auction stage.

He smiled and said cautiously, "Old Master Lei, thank you for helping me appraise the mei bottle; otherwise, I might have been set up by someone."

"President Xu, you're too polite. I was paid for it, and it wasn't cheap."

"But you didn't lose out either; you got a real national treasure. It also cleared your doubts, so you can sleep a bit more soundly."

Old Master Lei joked with a smile, his eyes squinting into a line, hiding his pupils.

"Yes, yes!"

Mentioning the appraisal fee made Xu Ting feel a pang of regret. For just one mei bottle, it cost him 500,000.

Fortunately, it was appraised as an authentic piece; otherwise, his loss would have been huge.

This 500,000 appraisal fee had to be paid regardless of the result.

At the same time, his dislike for He Qixiang and the other two had reached its peak.

For today's auction, the two of them came together.

If he hired a consultant alone, the fee would mostly be ten percent of the antique's closing price, which wasn't cheap at all.

Now with Old Master Lei here, Xu Ting felt much more at ease and didn't have to spend extra money.

Soon, a yuan blue and white meiping caught Xu Ting's attention.

The yuan blue and white meiping was a large jar-style mei bottle, much more valuable than the ming chenghua plum vase he had.

Last time, he spent 5 million to get the ming chenghua plum vase; this time, it would only be more expensive.

However, he wasn't worried at all. For today, he had prepared for a long time.

He had even mortgaged his company's shares.

Xu Ting glanced at Old Master Lei and saw the fat on his belly trembling with his breathing. His originally small eyes were wide and round, staring intently at the mei bottle on the auction stage.

A look of fanaticism appeared on his face, as if he were just waiting for the female host's command to take it for himself.
