I looked at my phone helplessly, the time showed it was already 13, 50, less than an hour before the afternoon’s product launch.
No matter what I did to change my location, the phone still showed one bar of signal. I dialed Leon’s number again, but this time cell phone’s signal completely disappeared before I could get through.
When I found that the call was impossible to get through, I edited a message and sent it to Leon. I told him that I was trapped in the Pioneer Park where phone’s signal was bad and asked him to save me.
As a result, the message could not be sent out.
So I kept changing my location, and kept texting the message. But after waiting for a long time here, the cell phone still showed one bar occasionally. I kept texting it for half an hour, and that message was finally sent out successfully.
However I didn’t receive a reply. I didn’t know if Leon checked his phone for messages, or I couldn’t receive the message he sent back.
After the message was sent, I could only wait for a reply. I was sure that Leon would find me. Time passed by, it was only five minutes left before the start of the product launch.
I could imagine that everyone at the scene was anxiously waiting for me to appear. But judging from the current situation, it was impossible for me to show up on time.
Even if Leon knew that I was trapped in the Pioneer Park, it would be impossible for him to find me here at once. The cell phone’s signal was still intermittent, and at its best, it was only one bar. I had changed directions countless times in the small space, but the signal was still weak.
Half an hour had passed since the launch, and I had instead calmed down and stopped being anxious. I thought that time had been lost anyway, and I could only wait for rescue now.
But after another hour, Leon still didn’t appeared.
If it got dark, I was really afraid that Ruoxin Chen would come up with some bad idea to deal with me. I had to find a way to inform Leon as soon as possible.
Suddenly I thought of a way. I took out my phone to see if there was a Wi-Fi signal.
Sure enough, the phone was able to receive a few good Wi-Fi signals, and one of the Wi-Fi was even called Lanhai Technology.
Although the signal was only two bars, if my phone could connect to the internet, then I could log in WeChat and sent my location to Leon.
And since I could receive Lanhai Technology’s Wi-Fi signal here, which meant it was not far from Lanhai Technology’s office.
Unfortunately, these Wi-Fi required login passwords, and I didn’t have password cracking software on my phone, so I couldn’t connect to the internet.
I decided to focus on the Lanhai Technology’s Wi-FI password. I found those office phone numbers of the company and used them as passwords, and they were all wrong.
If it was private Wi-Fi, it would definitely use numbers like birthdays. For a company’s WLAN network, I thought its password would be numbers that associated with a company. Since the password was not phone numbers, it could be the date the company was founded.
I closed my eyes and began to recall the date of Lanhai Technology’s founding. I read the relevant information but only glanced at it. I only remembered the year but not the exact month or date.
Although remembering numbers was my strength, it was still difficult for me to remember a number that I didn’t pay any attention to when I read it.
In the end I added in the pinyin of Yan Chen and Feng Shen’s last name, and then added the year the company was founded, but the password was still wrong.
If my idea was correct, then the password should be added to the month or the specific date. It was easy for me to try it from one to twelve, but if I wanted to know which day it was, it was harder.
Luckily, when I tried the number two, my phone connected to Laihan Technology’s WLAN network.
I quickly logged into Wechat, but the signal was a little weak, and finally on the third time I connected to network. I logged in quickly and sent my location to Leon.
As soon as I sent the location, there was a knock on the door, “Nala Yao? Are you there?”
It was Leon’s voice.
I was overjoyed and excitedly shouted, “Leon, I’m here.”
“Smash the lock.” Leon commanded.
Then soon the door was opened.
“Are you okay?” When the door opened, Leon came in. He held my shoulders and looked me up and down. He said to me with deep concern.
“I’m fine, I just got knocked on the head. How was the product launch?”
“Still waiting for you. Everything’s fine.” Leon said.
“Are we still going there now?” I asked.
“It depends on you. Do you need a break? Are you okay? If you don’t feel good, I’ll ask Xuanlong to cancel it.” Leon cupped my face and asked me with concern.
“I’m fine. Let’s go now.” I said with a smile.
Leon looked at me uncertainly. I ran a hand through my hair that had fallen loose from my forehead and nodded affirmatively at him.
“I’m really fine, don’t worry about me.”
“You’re brave, my woman should be like this.” Leon took my hand in his and hold it gently.
“I just sent you the location and you found it? Are you around?”
“I didn’t get your message. I was looking at security footage and saw you being brought to this area, and then I found you one room at a time. There are so many vacant offices here that I’m sorry I find you so later. I’ll get to the bottom of this.”
“It’s okay. I’m grateful you found me.” I smiled at him, indicating that I really was fine.
When Leon and I arrived at the product launch, the impatient reporters who had waited impatiently finally got excited and snapped at me.
I took Leon’s arm, smiling at them, and let them take a few pictures first.
Leon hold my hand again, “It’s your turn to make a speech. I won’t steal your thunder, so show yourself now.”
I took a deep breath and walked up to the stage, “First of all, thank you for coming to my company’s product launch. I apologize for my late arrival due to traffic jams, thank you all for waiting.” After I said that, I bowed deeply to them
No reporters deliberately embarrassed me for being late, and just a handful of people expressed their displeasure. I pretended I didn’t hear them, and then I began to deliver the speech that Leon had written for me in my own style.
I was still nervous at the beginning. It was my first time to stand up on stage and delivered a speech as a CEO, but finally I relaxed a bit. And my speech was more fluent. After the speech was over, I won applause.
Next, Yan Chen would introduce the new product. I went backstage and Leon applauded me, “Great, very good.”
“Thanks for your compliment. I’m still a little nervous.” I said with a smile.
“I mean I wrote it well.” Leon said.
I gave him a cold stare. He teased me again.
“Let’s go to the hospital and take care of your injuries. You have to attend the banquet tonight. Is that okay?” Leon said.
“I’m not going to the banquet. I don’t like it.”
“I’ve specially invited some important persons from the business community of Hai City, so you can take this opportunity to get to know them. You take over Lanhai Technology, which means that you enter the business circle of Hai City officially. You will need to deal with these people in the future, so it’s good to get to know more people.”
I looked at Leon and joked, “Are there handsome guys at the banquet? If there are, I’ll go, or I won’t.”
“Yes, there are.” Leon said seriously, “There will also be important people there and he will surprise you.”
“The important person you’re talking about is yourself, right?” I said to Leon with a smile.
“Am I a narcissist?” Leon suddenly changed his face and said.
“Yes, you are.” I responded deliberately and then ducked to the side to prevent him from attacking me suddenly.
