Chapter 164
Ye Qian understood that even though Wang Ping looked like he was asking Jack on the surface, he was really trying to find out more about Ye Qian . But Ye Qian did not speak . He had known Jack for a very long time . He knew Jack was very capable at managing things so he was not worried .
“At Harvard!” Jack replied .
Jack was indeed a student from Harvard, but he did not graduate . He gave up his studies after hacking into the FBI and CIA’s databases . Until now, the FBI and CIA still had not figured out that it was Jack that did those attacks back then . At that time Jack was very young and ran off to the Middle East carrying his guilt and in the end joined the Wolf Fang . When he hacked into the CIA and FBI back then he was only playing around and did not steal anything, he only dumped in a bunch of porn .
After joining the Wolf Fang there were times that they need to steal information . Jack had hacked back into the FBI and CIA but he did it very covertly . He also modified his student records in Harvard, so if Wang Ping wanted to check those, it would be useless .
“Turns out you’re genius from Harvard, forgive my ignorance . ” Wang Ping said with a laugh .
“Secretary Wang is overpraising . When I arrived in China I realized that a Harvard graduate is not extraordinary . For example, primary school mathematics in China is equal to the USA’s high school level . ” Jack said .
Wang Pink smiled lightly . Jack’s words were true, but Harvard was still a famous school internationally . It was a top-class in terms of teachers and educational standards, the students were also very talented . So he just took Jack’s modest words and did not press the matter further . After a pause, Wang Ping said, “Oh right, Brother Ye . You said earlier that you needed my help . What is it? Tell me . I will do what is in my power . ”
Ye Qian looked at Jack and said, “Jack, hand the plans over to Secretary Wang . ”
Jack made a sound of agreement and handed over the prepared plans and said, “Secretary Wang, these are the expansion plans of the Ironblood Security Firm . Because time was short it is not very detailed, I can explain it to Secretary Wang . ”
The truth was, the plans were only a formality . Wang Ping was the Municipal Committee Secretary of Shanghai, he would not be inclined to read such things . Ye Qian understood very clearly that the plans were only for looking good, to show his sincerity in wanting to develop the law and order of Shanghai .
Wang Ping accept the plans and casually browsed through some of the pages, Jack proceeded to explain things simply . He mostly spoke about the future contributions of the Ironblood Security Firm to Shanghai’s law and order as well as the benefits to the citizens and the country . This was something Ye Qian told him especially to do . The reason was not only because they wanted to win Wang Ping’s favor, but because Ye Qian also sincerely wanted to do it . In China, it was not the same as the USA where you could just casually drop in a few dollars and the government official would take your side . To be able to get a government official on your side here you had to show them that they would not only get money, but also great political achievements, that way they would be deserving .
After Jack finished, Wang Ping put the files down and turned to Li Hao, “Xiao Li, what do you think?”
Li Hao contemplated in silence for a while, then said, “Secretary, I think this plan is very good . If all the proposals in this plan are accomplished, it would be a big help to the public security work in Shanghai . I find the proposals are not bad and deserve for us to be carried out . ”
It could be that because he just got promoted that Wang Ping was very eager to achieve something great politically . So he did not take much time to think about it . Add to that the fact that Li Hao would be taking charge of this work, and he had a lot of faith in Li Hao, he agreed very quickly . Wang Ping nodded and said, “These plans you made are very good . Don’t worry, anything that will be good for Shanghai’s economic development and citizens, I will raise up both my arms to praise . Rest assured, you may carry these out . If you hit any problems, tell me . To exert effort for the citizens is a duty . ”
Ye Qian smiled faintly . With Wang Ping’s words the Ironblood Security Firm had the green light to develop in Shanghai, there would absolutely be no difficulties . Wang Ping was the Municipal Committee Secretary, Li Hao was the head of the Ministry of Public Security . On the legal side, it could be said that the Ironblood Security Firm had no problems anymore . “Thank you Secretary Wang, with your words, we can rest easy . ” Ye Qian said in a rush .
“Eh? Don’t talk like that . We are celebrating Shanghai’s development . As a Municipal Committee Deputy Secretary I naturally must expend no effort in supporting . ” Wang Ping said .
Since they had gotten the benefit they wanted from Wang Ping, Ye Qian knew he must give some benefits to him back . Ye Qian was not here to ask for something in return for the previous time he helped Wang Ping . Ye Qian understood that if he wanted Wang Ping to be on the same boat with him forever, he had to let Wang Ping receive benefits from himself forever . But this gift must also be carefully chosen .
Ye Qiang laughed and then pulled out a work of calligraphy from the side and said, “Secretary Wang, a few days ago I saw a painting from Wang Pei and I know it isn’t fake . I heard you have a deep understanding of calligraphy, will you help me study it?”
Wang Ping’s whole body trembled, he was a huge fan of classical calligraphy . Calligraphy had a lot of attraction and charm for Wang Pin . “Really? Quickly, let me see!” Wang Ping said excitedly . “Oh, this isn't a good place to look, come, let’s go back to the living room . ”
After saying this, he rose eagerly . Li Hao also rose and gave Ye Qian a look, smiling helplessly . The meaning behind his smile was clear, showing that Ye Qian had gotten Wang Ping’s weakness . Ye Qian smiled without commenting and also rose .
Even though Wang Ping was obsessed with classical calligraphy, it did not mean that he would just accept a piece of work from anybody, or else after so many years he would not be able to present himself as an uncorrupt person . Wang Ping already considered Ye Qian as one of his people, this was the most important reason . Otherwise a person like Wang Ping who valued political achievements over benefits would not easily accept a bribe .
