Sun Liancheng ignored their thoughts and urged, “What’s wrong, let’s go! My car can fit a few more people. We can go to the police station, it won’t take long. I’ll send you back.”
Zheng Xi Po remained hesitant, saying, “District Chief Sun, is it really necessary to call the police?”
Sun Liancheng replied, “Comrades, your understanding is wrong! We’re going to ask for their help, not actually report him to the police. Don’t worry, although I’m not a big official, Commissioner Zhao Donglai will give me some face.”
“No, that’s not what we mean. We think it’s enough to find Cai Chenggong, we don’t have to involve the police?”
Sun Liancheng put on a serious face, “Chairman Zheng, you’re wrong to think that way! You have so many people gathered here, almost causing public opinion, this is not a small matter! If Cai Chenggong doesn’t come out, are you going to stay like this?”
Zheng Xi Po and the other workers looked at each other, but their determination to protect the factory was firm.
Sun Liancheng could see that they were doing this for their own interests, so it was understandable.
But they couldn’t just wait for a solution, pushing all the pressure onto him?
“Comrades, we can’t just sit and wait for a solution. We need to take action and solve this problem as soon as possible. Otherwise, the city party committee and city government will get involved. I don’t mind the consequences, but why make things so complicated? Cai Chenggong hasn’t broken any laws. What’s wrong with asking the police for help? It’s not like you’re going to put him in jail. As long as he’s found, the problem can be solved smoothly, and you don’t have to worry. Isn’t that a win-win situation?”
Seeing their hesitation, Sun Liancheng pretended to understand.
“Oh, you’re not going because you have some illegal or criminal activities with Cai Chenggong at your Da Feng Factory?”
Zheng Xi Po and the others were immediately agitated, saying, “District Chief Sun, we haven’t done anything wrong! We just, just… sigh, let’s go!”
“That’s right! Comrades, please rest assured, this matter will be resolved soon. Don’t gather here anymore, so as to avoid any misunderstandings.”
Sun Liancheng drove Zheng Xi Po and a few others to the city police station, and Cui Hao went back to the district government.
Arriving at the police station, Sun Liancheng immediately announced his identity.
“I am Sun Liancheng, District Chief of Guangming District, I have important matters to discuss with Commissioner Zhao Donglai!”
The officer at the reception, seeing Sun Liancheng’s distinguished appearance and the workers’ somewhat unusual demeanor, immediately contacted Zhao Donglai.
Soon, Sun Liancheng and the others were brought up to the Commissioner’s office on the upper floor.
“Oh, what brings District Chief Sun to our humble abode?”
Zhao Donglai said with a chuckle, secretly observing the people behind Sun Liancheng.
Sun Liancheng also laughed, “Commissioner Zhao, it’s a strong wind that blew me here. You need to help me control this strong wind!”
Zhao Donglai still chuckled, “Strong wind? What kind of strong wind even you, District Chief Sun, can’t handle?”
“That’s right! If I could handle it, I wouldn’t dare bother you, Secretary Li’s capable subordinate!”
Zhao Donglai stopped smiling and said seriously, “District Chief Sun, you’re too kind. Tell me, what’s this about?”
Sun Liancheng looked at Zheng Xi Po and the others, seeing their nervousness, he had to explain the situation himself.
He didn’t mention any inside information, just presented the information he had heard from them, along with his analysis, and finally put forward his request.
“Commissioner Zhao, that’s the situation. The key is to find Cai Chenggong. As long as we find him, the situation will be resolved!”
Zhao Donglai thought for a moment and asked seriously again, “Is it really that simple?”
“Yes, it’s that simple!”
“If so, can’t your Guangming District Police Station do it? Why come to me?”
Zhao Donglai’s intuition was sharp.
But from what was said, he had already sensed something.
He turned to Zheng Xi Po and the others, asking again about the details of the whole incident.
Zheng Xi Po and the others might not know as much as Sun Liancheng, but what they could tell confirmed Sun Liancheng’s words, and even seemed to corroborate some of his guesses.
Zhao Donglai was immediately troubled, this didn’t seem to be an ordinary matter!
He wondered if it would affect the Guangming Peak project, a project that Secretary Li was personally overseeing!
He was somewhat suspicious of Sun Liancheng’s motives, but he didn’t know how to ask, and he doubted it would be useful even if he did.
Sun Liancheng could feel his gaze and the implication, but his expression remained serious, giving the matter a sense of importance.
“Commissioner Zhao, this matter is indeed not complicated, but it’s quite sensitive. You know that the Guangming Peak project has already started, and Da Feng Factory is a key obstacle. If we don’t resolve this matter, it will affect this major project personally overseen by Secretary Li!”
Zhao Donglai looked grave, thought about it for a moment, and then made a decision.
“Okay, we can help with this.”
Sun Liancheng suddenly reminded, “Commissioner Zhao, I have a bad feeling. I think Cai Chenggong might have absconded with the money or had an accident. If you can’t find him, maybe you can directly file a case and issue a warrant!”
Zhao Donglai furrowed his brows, “That’s… not that serious, is it?”
“Hahaha, Commissioner Zhao, I’m just speculating, but can you be sure it’s not possible? This is tens of millions of yuan in relocation compensation, a matter involving over a thousand workers!”
Zhao Donglai nodded gravely, “Okay, we’ll find him as soon as possible. But you need to give a statement so we can investigate with a basis.”
Sun Liancheng finally smiled in satisfaction, stood up, and said, “No problem, I trust Commissioner Zhao’s abilities. Otherwise, how could you become Secretary Li’s most trusted person? Chairman Zheng, let’s go, don’t disturb Commissioner Zhao’s work any longer!”
Zheng Xi Po and the others sighed, said nothing, stood up, and bid farewell to Zhao Donglai, going out to make their statements.
Sun Liancheng even reminded the officer in charge, “Be ready to file a case and investigate at any time.”
Zhao Donglai watched Sun Liancheng and the others leave, and he had a hunch, as if something was going to happen.
It was mainly Sun Liancheng’s expression and attitude that gave him a bad feeling.
He knew quite a lot about Sun Liancheng, thanks to his relationship with Feiyang Group.
