Chapter 800 It’s time to return the favor (please collect, recommend, and vote monthly)
"Why are you here?"
“Is your injury okay?”
Alex got into the car and the two of them asked almost at the same time.
Xu Chuan smiled, answering this question for the tenth time today, "I'm fine, the bullet just passed by."
Alex fastened her seat belt, "Someone messed up a mission, and Amanda sent me here to deal with the aftermath."
Xu Chuan made a puzzled expression, "What mission? Well, forget it, don't tell me, I don't really want to know." He knew very well that the more he said this, the more likely the child would tell it himself.
Alex rolled her eyes. Every move of the girl who grew longer and longer was filled with indescribable charm.
However, Xu Chuan's thinking was very right, "Do you know that someone robbed DeWitt Investment's vault?"
Xu Chuan blinked his eyes and thought, ‘I didn’t force you to do this. ’
“I heard some news, but I didn’t confirm it. I have no dealings with their company.”
“It’s true, they were robbed of 400 million in bearer bonds.” Alex’s expression was like a little girl showing off candy.
Xu Chuan's expression was very surprised. Anyone who was familiar with him would know that this guy was acting, and his acting skills were extremely bad.
“No, this is not a Hollywood blockbuster.”
“Not only that, they also want to put a loss of 500 million US dollars on the robbers.” Alex said with a sarcastic face.
Xu Chuan raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that he guessed it right. Well, actually he would do the same thing if it were him.
"Then what are you doing here?" It seemed that the group of people yesterday were Amanda's men, but he was very sure that the Alex in front of him was not among those people.
Alex smiled and said, "It's not that Sean Pierce. He met the police before the work was done and was almost caught by SWAT."
Xu Chuan also laughed. It would be great fun if an agent of the organization was caught. Although they would definitely be able to fish him out, they would definitely be on the FBI's blacklist, and it would not be so convenient to do anything in the future.
“Did you help them evacuate?”
“Hmm, I disguised myself as the LAPD and helped them escape.” The little girl looked proud.
Xu Chuan really wanted to reach out and brush her hair.
“Where are those bonds, have they been recovered?”
Alex shook her head nonchalantly, "Not yet, but Sean Pierce said he found out the hiding place, which is the best news."
Xu Chuan turned his head and said, "Do you know where it is? I will take some people to rob them first, and then I will give you half of it."
“Ha, that’s a good idea.” Alex laughed, “But since he didn’t tell me, I didn’t ask.”
The little girl frowned and seemed to be really thinking about the feasibility of this matter.
"I'm kidding, these things are too hot." Xu Chuan pretended to persuade her to give up, and then the girl rolled her eyes.
Alex thought of something and looked at Xu Chuan but hesitated to speak.
"You want to ask Nikita, she and Michael went to Eastern Europe, and they will probably go there for a while." Xu Chuan knew what she wanted to ask at a glance.
Alex breathed a vague sigh of relief, and then suddenly thought of something, "They couldn't have gone to waste me." That was where Amanda wanted to send her on the mission.
Xu Chuan glanced sideways at her, "What, Amanda wants to get involved?"
"Ovechkin is no longer under her control. She wants to kill him. Why did Nikita go there?" Alex felt a little confused. That guy was a fake president and seemed to have nothing to do with Nikita. .
Xu Chuan didn’t know how to answer. This involved Michael’s privacy. Who would have thought that this guy could sleep with my first lady for nothing.
“Well, they went there because of some personal matters.”
Alex was skeptical of his statement.
“I’m sorry, this matter involves someone’s privacy, and it’s not easy for me to disclose it to you.”
The little girl was very satisfied with his attitude of telling him what he had to say, so she didn't ask any further questions.
"I want to find a chance to get back to me Rose later." Alex whispered her plan to the other party. She was already preparing to go back for revenge and seize power.
Xu Chuan thought for a while and just said, "I wish you success."
"Thanks"
The two of them didn't stay too long. Alex also needed to do some aftermath work before returning to New Jersey.
Amanda's life was not very good during this period. Her boss, Senator Madeleine, expressed great disappointment that she did not complete the task.
However, it is impossible to really do anything to her at this point in time. After all, the organization has just experienced a power reshuffle. If it happens again, it will be a very difficult process to restore combat capabilities, let alone for the organization. The morale of the members was also severely damaged.
Senator Madeleine’s son, Sean Pierce, is still in Los Angeles and has been preparing to pick up the bonds after the police blockade is lifted.
This poor child didn't even know he had been tricked.
DeWitt Investment has settled the inquiries of some investors. They now need to unify the caliber of these losses with the police and some shareholders. Of course, the insurance company will not admit such a large loss, and they will launch an independent investigation.
The police did find bonds and cash burned to ashes at the scene, but the evidence was not very sufficient. The LAPD had not yet found out where those armed men came from. SWAT had originally surrounded them, but in the final stage Let them run away again.
We have to suspect that someone within the LAPD is cooperating. Chief Plank's hair is almost falling out. He has realized that DeWitt may have found someone in private, but he can't put this matter on the table.
If evidence of DeWitt's fire dragon burning the warehouse can be found, he should still be able to sit down in this position. If not, his position as director should be over.
The commander of SWAT, Robert Hicks, was in a good mood. He successfully handled the Staples Center case. Although there were casualties, it was the best result under the circumstances.
There is nothing to say about the subsequent battle between SWAT and that group of armed men. In the end, it was the Anti-Gangster Group of the Western District Bureau that caused the problem. It was their negligence that allowed people to escape.
In the entire incident, only SWAT behaved most normally.
The mayor and many senior officials called him. Although he didn't speak clearly, he understood the meaning.
Maybe he can really sit in that position before retiring. If Robert Hicks was not very interested in the position of director before, it was because the Los Angeles City Government wanted a more energetic young man in this position. , then after experiencing so many things, these senior leaders may need a more stable candidate.
And Robert Hicks was promoted from the bottom of the police force, and his popularity in the LAPD was certainly not high. Since Plank was bound to take the blame, he was already the best choice.
Eh, looking at it this way, why does he look so much like Li Wenbin?
Three days later, the police finally found the missing Devin Carlisle. The guy was **** and dumped in an abandoned yard to die. The autopsy result was that he died of sudden cardiopulmonary failure. The location was less than 30 meters away from his house. .
For a person who has been taking contraband all year round, he has no medicine and no food or drink. The drug addiction attack and severe hypoglycemia will directly kill him.
Well, Xu Chuan could only express his apologies. The binding they made was indeed a bit strong at the time, and there was almost no possibility for this guy to save himself. So now the question is, who kidnapped Devin? Was it the armed men who ran away?
Also, SWAT's Hongdu asked all departments of the Los Angeles County Police Department. The LASD who appeared on the scene that night seemed to have disappeared from the world.
“I think those LASD were impersonated by some people. I asked the command center and there were no LASD police officers performing tasks nearby that day.” Hondu stood in Jessica Cortez’s office.
Jessica stood up and leaned against her desk, clasping her hands on her chest, "I think so too, and it is very likely that this group of people hijacked Devin Carlisle, otherwise the armed men behind would not have silenced him. Leave him behind."
Hongdu nodded, "So what did these four impostors get? Why did they conflict with the people who came after them?"
Jessica shook her head, "No one cares about the case itself now."
Even the victim, DeWitt Investments, doesn't care who robbed them. They now hope that the police will quickly come to the conclusion that all the bonds and cash were burned in the fire. However, no one in the LAPD dares to say this. Do you think the insurance company is? Is it easy to bully?
Including the Los Angeles City Government, they are more concerned about those who were robbed at the Staples Center. After all, they are celebrities, city councilors and government executives. There will be a lot of topics to hype.
As for these dead robbers, almost no one cares, and even the identification of these people is delayed.
Hondu and Jessica both knew that the complexity of this case was definitely more serious than it seemed, but they could not change the matter itself.
“I’m going to check those bonds.” Hongdu still didn’t want to give up.
Jessica wanted to stop him, but thinking about this guy's temper, she still didn't say anything. "Then be careful, 400 million bonds can make people do anything."
"I know." Hongdu nodded. Before walking out of the office, he held the door handle and turned back. "Well, do you want to have dinner together tonight?"
Jessica Cortez raised her head, with a hint of surprise on her serious face, "Okay."
"Then I'll let you know after I've made a reservation." Hongdu also had a smile on his face.
…
Young Master Xu is very free these days. In addition to recording songs with Sheila in the recording studio, sometimes he will participate in some activities with her if he is in a good mood. During the activities, the media will definitely ask him about the Staples Center. The problem.
Well, he just wanted to remind the hostages that it was time to return the favor.
Most people knew what to do, and it was nothing more than fame and fortune. Of course Xu Chuan didn't care about money, but the more than 80 people present at the time and the connections behind them could do a lot of things.
He specially asked people to sort out the connections of these people, and then consider how to offer prices. Young Master Xu never thought of saving these favors and using them when he had the opportunity in the future. What are he waiting for? I may have forgotten it, so it would be more affordable to cash it out now.
Since the Staples Center incident began, the country has been deliberately suppressing the popularity of this incident, but even so, Master Xu's name has not fallen out of the top three hot searches.
UC Media is guiding the attention of domestic public opinion and trying its best to focus the public's attention on Xu Chuan's new song, so that the domestic downloads of the live version of "Something Just Like This" broke the record.
The number of views on UC's video website has exceeded 20 million. Others have not done much about this. The director of "In My Name" Yang Yushun is going crazy with joy.
The promotion of the TV series went quite smoothly, and it was featured in various variety shows and interviews, but the popularity was not as good as he thought.
The two songs sung by Dong Qin have attracted more attention than those in the TV series. The main reason is that people are now accustomed to the fact that every time Xu Chuan writes songs for TV series, they are all songs from bad movies.
Although the trailer is very exciting and exciting, everyone still feels that the essence is all in the trailer, and it is just an idol drama at best.
So apart from the fans of Girls’ Generation enjoying themselves, there is not much popularity.
And this time the scene of the NBA Christmas game directly made Xu Chuan's video go viral. UC's video website began to use their boss's popularity to attract crazy traffic to the TV series. Coupled with UC Media's trolls, this made the TV series even more popular before it started broadcasting. Attention suddenly increased.
‘The great **** started to swipe the screen again. ’
‘This guy must be possessed by evil spirits. Last time a star died before the Grammys, but this time several stars died. ’
‘I just want to know who else would dare to invite him to attend events in the future. ’
‘Damn it, didn’t you guys watch the follow-up interview? In the end, the master tried his best to **** away the detonator of the bomb, otherwise these guys would all be dead. ’
Those who can talk so much must be Xu Chuan’s fans.
‘But there is no subsequent video, it seems that the signal was cut off at that time. ’
‘There are external websites, and in subsequent interviews, the celebrities at the scene all said that God saved them. ’
'Really? Is there a link to give one. ’
‘By the way, don’t you think the English songs written by great masters are better than those written in Mandarin? ’
‘I don’t think so. It’s obvious that the artistry of SomethingJustLikeThis is much worse. Xu Chuan’s creative ability is not as good as you think. ’
‘You know so much, show us some of your works. ’
Then a group of netizens got into an argument, and the trolls at UC Media wiped away the cold sweat. Sure enough, they could change the topic by just scolding the boss a few times, but they just hoped not to let him know. I heard that this guy was very narrow-minded.
New Year's Day, the new year has begun again. Miss Xu is at home in the capital. She and Dong Qin have just returned from Mr. Xu's courtyard house.
“Xiaowen’s TV series will be launched today.” Xu Ziwen took off his down jacket and wore single clothes. Houses in the north have heating, so as long as he doesn’t go out, he is still very warm.
Dongqin looked at the time and said, "Well, it's about to start."
Xu Ziwen took out his mobile phone and logged into Twitter. He first sent a tweet asking fans to watch the show, and there were hundreds of replies in an instant.
Since she was about to quit Girls’ Generation, her Twitter account was returned to her.
After sending the message, the eldest lady felt very happy looking at the skyrocketing number of replies below, and then called Gao Wen.
As expected, this girl had already opened a video website. It was her first TV series to star in. Gao Wen was still very nervous.
“Don’t worry, the TV series my brother has handled has never failed. Even if you don’t believe in yourself, you still have to believe in him.” Xu Ziwen said comforting words carelessly.
Gao Wen didn't know how to respond to this fresh and refined comfort on the other side, so she had to change the subject.
“By the way, your brother hasn’t come back?”
“No, what? Do you miss him?”
One sentence made Gao Wen on the other end of the phone blush immediately, "I didn't", denying it loudly.
“I have his phone number.” Xu Ziwen took out the bait, and Gao Wen lost his voice instantly.
Dongqin walked into her room after changing clothes, "Stop teasing her all the time, give her the phone number." He raised his hand and patted the eldest lady on the shoulder.
"Okay." Xu Ziwen pretended not to be very happy and agreed, and then continued with Gao Wen, "I'll send you the phone number. It's up to you whether to call or not."
The other person hung up the phone directly, making Miss Xu, who still wanted to tease the other person a few words, furious.
At eight o'clock sharp, "In My Name" was officially launched. Gao Wen sat in front of the computer and looked at the phone number she received on her mobile phone. She had already forgotten about her TV series.
