Chapter 400 Good news?
Chapter 400 Good news?
It was obvious that this was an address, and An Rushong had an impression of the place "216 Dongyi Road". This place was in the north of the center of Seoul, where there were large commercial and residential buildings. And "Building 512, 2-1320" should be a room in one of those commercial and residential buildings.
Looking at the second text message on his phone, An Rusong's smile became even wider. He sat down on the sofa, lit a cigarette for himself, took a puff, and then simply replied with his phone: "Is this the address of Yan's house?"
"Yes," the text message was sent, and the other party replied quickly, "Brother Rusong can come over to play when he has time, but Yaen's house is not as spacious as Brother Rusong's."
This girl is definitely trying to seduce him! An Rusong is 100% sure of this.
An Rushong never believed that there is such a thing as love at first sight in this world. He believed in the saying: love at first sight is actually just lust at first sight.
The most important thing is that although he looks good and can be considered a handsome guy, he is not so handsome that women can't walk. And a woman like Lin Yaen, who is young, beautiful, and has the rank of lieutenant, must have no shortage of suitors around her.
Now, such a woman actually seduced him with a knife after their first meeting. There was only one possibility: the other party wanted something.
What is she asking for? Haha, An Rusong can easily give the answer that the other party is asking for money.
Not to mention, chatting with beautiful women is always a pleasant experience. Even if you know that the other person's mind is not so simple, An Rushong can still enjoy it.
In fact, in a while, Lin Yaen will become the boss of An Rushong, the new recruit. However, this lieutenant does not have the airs of a superior at all. Even if An Rushong makes a few semi-obscene teasing remarks from time to time, she only replies with a symbolic remark, and the words between the lines seem to reveal her reluctance to accept.
The two chatted back and forth for more than ten minutes. An Rushong finished smoking the cigarette he had lit, and the topic turned to drinking.
An Rusong said that when he had completed the military service procedures, he would visit Lin Yaen at her home and bring some wine with him, and asked Lin Yaen what kind of wine she wanted to drink. Lin Yaen replied that she would drink anything that Rusong brought.
There was a lot of ambiguity in these words, and An Rushong felt itchy because of her teasing.
He put out the cigarette in the ashtray, and at that moment, he heard the phone ding-dong. However, he didn't notice it, and after turning his eyes from the ashtray back to the phone, he directly edited a text message and sent it.
He sent: As long as I bring it, you will drink it? Really?
As the message was sent back, An Rusong looked at the screen of his mobile phone and was stunned for a moment. He found that the recipient of this message was no longer Lin Yaen, but Quan Zhihui!
An Rusong quickly clicked on the text message he had just sent and looked at the text message interface. Sure enough, just half a minute ago, Quan Zhihui sent him a text message: "President An, are you free now?"
And below this text message is the text message he sent.
Oh my god! There is nothing more embarrassing in the world!
There is no way. Text messages are not WeChat. Once a message is sent, it cannot be retrieved.
Just when An Rushong was planning to send another text message to Quan Zhihui to explain the situation, a new text message came. It was from Quan Zhihui. The content was very simple, just a "?".
Rubbing his chin, An Rusong copied the text message he had sent by mistake before and sent it to Lin Yaen. Then he explained to Quan Zhihui, "Sorry, President Quan, the last text message was sent to the wrong person. I'm very convenient now. Is there anything I can do for you?"
"Ding dong!"
A new text message came in, but it was from Lin Yaen. She replied to An Rusong: "Of course it's true, as long as Brother Rusong really comes."
Wow, this girl is really direct. However, An Rusong liked it, so he replied directly: "Okay, then I will go next Monday at noon."
After the message was sent, the phone rang. It was Quan Zhihui's reply. She said in the message: "I am not disturbing President An's hunting for beauties, am I?"
It’s not that Quan Zhihui guessed correctly, but mainly because the sentence An Rushong just sent was too ambiguous. Any normal person would probably think in that direction.
Looking at the text message, An Rushong touched his chin. Just as he was thinking about how to reply to the other party, he received another text message on his phone.
The text message was still sent by Quan Zhihui. This woman types very fast.
"Chairman An is in the mood to indulge himself, so I guess the trouble with the Americans has really been solved, right?" said the text message from Quan Zhihui. "Chairman Quan is joking," An Rusong thought for a moment and replied, "I can't say I indulged myself, but the trouble with the Americans has indeed been solved."
"This is really good news," Quan Zhihui replied after a while, "Then I would like to congratulate President An first."
"Thank you," An Rushong replied simply.
At this moment, there was a slight knock on the door. An Rushong turned his head and saw that it was the young man who had come back.
An Rushong nodded at the other party, and gestured with his hand on the coffee table in front of him, meaning that he should tidy up the things on the coffee table.
The young man was Jenny's subordinate. They were actually bodyguards around An Rusong. Under normal circumstances, bodyguards would not do such work as maids would do. However, An Rusong's situation was obviously not normal because he paid money.
That's right, there are eight other bodyguards besides Jenny protecting An Rusong's personal safety at the Renwangshan Villa. In terms of affiliation, these people are actually all employees of the NSA, and they are formal employees. In other words, they get paid for their work, and the one who pays their salaries is the NSA.
These people's protection of An Rushong was a task assigned by the NSA, that is, a task assigned by Leonard, so, logically speaking, An Rushong did not need to pay them salaries.
But An Rusong did not do it "according to reason". He paid these people a salary during the period of providing protection for him, and the salary was calculated on a daily basis, 400 US dollars per person per day. Such a salary is not too high for these NSA special agents, but it is not too low either. The most important thing is that it is an extra income.
Therefore, these people like their current jobs very much, and they don’t mind doing some small things outside of work in the villa.
The young man walked in quickly and began to clean up the leftovers on the table. At this moment, Quan Zhihui received another text message. She said, "In addition to congratulations, I have another piece of good news to inform President An. Um, I wonder if President An is available to answer the phone now?"
"Of course," An Rushong simply replied to a text message.
Although the other party has not said any good news yet, he has vaguely guessed that, if nothing unexpected happens, the good news that Kwon Ji-hye mentioned should be related to the draft of "IT Korea's Future Strategy", or more precisely, it should be related to the policy support funds that the Korean government is preparing to allocate to the IT industry.
Right after Lee Min-bo won the presidential election, he was eager to draft a so-called "IT Korea Future Strategy" draft, the purpose of which was the same as Kim Young-sam's cultural nation policy, both intended to promote the rapid development of a certain industry through government support. The only difference is that the latter supports the cultural and entertainment industry, while the former targets the IT industry, or the Internet industry.
An Rusong is a practitioner in the IT industry. He is also the president and founder of the prestigious NGN company in the past period of time. Of course, most importantly, he has a close relationship with President Lee Min-bo. Therefore, the series of policies related to this draft will definitely bring him benefits.
However, although Lee Min-bo is the current president, many matters at the national and policy levels cannot be decided by him alone. There is a large interest group behind him. In addition, the interests involved in the draft of the "IT Korea Future Strategy" are too lucrative and the cake is too big for An Rusong to eat alone, so some representatives of interest groups were involved.
Quan Zhihui is such a character. As the vice president of the "EG Company", she is the "white glove" of some people. An Rushong has long been aware of this.
After a short while, An Rushong's cell phone rang after a simple text message was sent.
He picked up the phone and looked at the caller ID on the screen. The person calling was Quan Zhihui.
After pressing the answer button, An Rusong put the phone to his ear and happened to hear Quan Zhihui's crisp voice coming from the other side: "Is this President An?"
"President Quan, I'm An Rushong," next to the coffee table, the young man had already packed up the tray, wine bottles and everything else. An Rushong waved at him, indicating that he could leave, while speaking into the phone.
"Chairman An, the draft of the IT strategy has been approved," Kwon Ji-hye said directly without beating around the bush. "The implementation of the entire draft will be jointly responsible by the Ministry of Science, Technology, ICT and the Internet & Communications Agency. Later, an industry association based on the business community will be established, and the corresponding support work will be jointly carried out by the Ministry of Science, Technology, ICT, the Internet & Communications Agency and the newly established industry association."
"Oh?" An Rushong responded lightly.
"How about this, if President An has some free time, why not come to my pub and sit down," Quan Zhihui said, "We can talk about it in detail. You know, some things are not convenient to talk about over the phone."
