The next day, Gu Heng and Chang Yuan were woken up by the phone ringing.Gu Heng took out his phone with half-closed eyes, and immediately woke up when he saw the caller ID.

While answering the phone, he walked towards the living room, "Chu Xi?" When he was about to leave, he looked back and saw that Chang Yuan was soundly asleep, somewhat relieved.Afraid of waking him up again, he kept his voice down, opening and closing the door the same way.

Chu Xi's tone was unusually urgent, "Gu Heng, the building that was still under construction in the west of the city collapsed last night."

With just such a sentence, Gu Heng's heart sank.

The development of the west of the city was only decided in the past two years. He and Chu Xi bought a piece of land at a low price in the early years, and the year before last, it also increased with the tide.Later, that land was planned to build a commercial building, and they were the investors themselves.It's just that the construction unit has found a well-known Zhongshen building in the industry.Now more than half of the building was built, and it was about to be completed, but it suddenly collapsed.

Regardless of how much money was invested, the criticism of Yicheng in the public opinion alone was enough for them to have a headache.

The commercial building in the west of the city is the last real estate project they are holding.This is the only traditional industry project other than the building materials that it cooperated with Qin's.

When they bought the land, they had the idea of ​​reselling it to earn the difference, but after the development plan came out, they had a lot more money in their hands, so they just gritted their teeth and digested it by themselves.The investment is big, the risk is high, and of course, the return is also very rich.

But now, all expectations are ruined.Once the semi-finished building collapsed, Yicheng was in a real crisis.

Gu Heng frowned, his face was colder than ever before. "What's the explanation from Zhongshen? Can the media say hello first?"

Chu Xi was silent for a while, and then heaved a long sigh. "Such a big movement, and it hurt people. The reporter may have arrived at the scene by now. We can't stop it even if we stop it."

Gu Heng rubbed between his brows, "Let's talk over there first."

Chu Xi, "Okay. See you later."

The voices of the two people turned out to be the same exhaustion.

Gu Heng went back to the bedroom to change clothes, only to realize that it was only four o'clock.

Chang Yuan, who usually slept soundly, also woke up suddenly. Seeing that Gu Heng was getting dressed, he thought it was time to get up.

Gu Heng looked back and quickly pressed him down.He was in a mess right now, but he still gently kissed Chang Yuan's eyebrows, "There is a problem in the west of the city, I'll go there first. It's still early, so you can sleep for a while."

Chang Yuan stared at him blankly, and it took several seconds to realize what he said.Blinking his eyes, he stretched out his hand to touch Gu Heng's face, and leaned over to kiss him. "Then you have to pay attention to safety."

Gu Heng's heart softened, and he touched Chang Yuan's upturned hair. "Go to sleep." Gu Heng tucked the quilt up for him, found the clothes by himself and took them out, and washed them in the bathroom in the living room.Hastily packed up and changed clothes to go out.

There are not many cars on the street at four o'clock.Gu Heng was thinking about this in his heart while driving.

The building in the west of the city collapsed, and Chu Xi didn't know what to say until he arrived at the scene.The first thing that matters is whether there are any casualties.

If not, it's all a loss for the business—the money invested, the years of goodwill, and the subsequent costs of cleaning up the mess.But if there are casualties, it's more than that.

In this project, from winning the land to winning the entire investment share, in addition to Yicheng's own level and Chu Xi Gu Heng's vision, the relationship between Chu Xi and the people in the system is also a big factor.But if Xiao He succeeds and Xiao He loses, if someone is killed, this unexplainable relationship will become a bomb that will explode at any time.

And if there are real casualties, Yicheng's corporate image will inevitably fall to the bottom after the media reports.They Yicheng still have a lot of industries in the service industry, and the corporate image is gone. How should these things be done in the future.

Gu Heng can almost foresee these bad things in the near future.

He didn't know if the incident this time was the same as before, if it was done by the person behind the scenes, if it was really... Gu Heng would be terrified just thinking about it.

Gu Heng and Chu Xi arrived at the scene almost at the same time.As soon as the car drove in, his heart sank in half.At four o'clock, the city center was as peaceful as every morning.Even the old people doing morning exercises didn't come out so early to join in the fun.Their car drove over unimpeded all the way, but they saw many people at the scene.

Especially among these people, besides the construction workers, there are also a few familiar reporters.

Chu Xi first called the person in charge of Zhongshen here.The person in charge here is a middle-aged man named Zheng.With the same characteristics that men in the wine market of this age have almost: Mediterranean, beer belly.He seemed to have just gotten up from that gentle village, his clothes were messy, and he still smelled of a pungent lady's perfume.

Chu Xi didn't play tricks, and the first thing he said was the key point, "Are there any casualties?"

Zheng Changgong was sweating profusely on his forehead, "Three people were injured, and no one died."

Gu Heng and Chu Xi breathed a sigh of relief—it wasn't the worst yet.

Gu Heng then asked, "Has the injured person been sent to the hospital? Is it a construction worker?"

Zheng Changgong nodded again and again, "They are all in the hospital, and I sent four people to accompany them, just in case something might go wrong. The three injured are construction workers. It is said that they were drinking here at night, and something will happen to anyone who thinks about it."

Chu Xi nodded slightly, and glanced at the reporters outside the crowd.The two reporters were both young people, and they did not take random pictures with their cameras at this time, nor did they have other eye-catching behaviors.

"All the reporters got together and told them, let's take care of it for now, and then ask them to interview after it's done."

Only now did Gu Heng have time to look at the collapsed building a hundred meters away.

The original design of this building has 26 floors, which is a comprehensive business center integrating business and commerce.In a few days, this building will be initially completed.So now you can see a very clear outline.Not all collapsed, but only the southeast corner and part of the south wall collapsed.Even so, it was shocking enough.

Chu Xi and Gu Heng knew that there must be something wrong with the construction just by looking at it a little.The designer of the building hired experts in the industry, and such a simple building without exaggerated shapes was just a simple matter for the designer.What's more, the design drawings have been discussed and studied several times after they were finalized.If there was a problem with the design drawing, then the collapse accident would not have happened so late.

Chu Xi's gaze once again fixed on the person in charge, Zheng Changgong. "The matter has come to this point, we are very willing to listen to your explanation."

Zheng Changgong wanted to speak, but Gu Heng cut him off first. "The reporter is still outside, so it is impossible to evade. The best choice for Zhongshen is to be honest with us." Gu Heng said slowly.

Zheng Changgong blushed, his lips trembled and he was speechless.
