Hearing what Lin Yi said, Zhao Yuhuan understood his meaning.
"But I still think we should expose this, more people need to know about it."
"Exposure is necessary, but we also need to find a solution to the problem. Although we handle the accounts, we shouldn’t forget the initial intent of our job completion rate."
"I get it. It’s past three in the afternoon, do we need to go to the real estate company?"
"Let’s first take a look at the sales office, see what they say over there."
"Mm-hmm."
Following the address on the contract, Lin Yi drove the car to the sales office.
The sales office was very elegantly decorated, but it was deserted, with only a few sporadic cars in the parking lot.
It was clear that after the negative news exposure, no one came here to look at apartments anymore.
The two parked the car and walked towards the main entrance.
At this moment, a security guard came over and glanced at the two of them.
"What are you here for?"
"We are..."
"We’re here to see the houses." Lin Yi interrupted Zhao Yuhuan before she could finish.
The security guard stepped aside from the entrance, and the two walked in.
"Lin Bro, did you say that because you were afraid they wouldn’t let us in?"
"With so much negative news exposed, they definitely wouldn’t let journalists and activists in."
"Your quick thinking saved the day; I nearly slipped up."
The two arrived at the sales center, where a worker enthusiastically approached.
"Are you here to check out the apartments?"
Lin Yi glanced at the other staff in the sales office.
The staff seemed idle, either playing on their phones or chatting.
"We’re journalists from the TV station, and we want to interview about the construction halt to see when it will resume."
Upon hearing this, all of the staff turned their eyes to Lin Yi, their gaze filled with scrutiny and wariness.
"Sorry, we are not accepting interviews right now."
"Can you bring your manager? We’d like to understand more about this situation."
"Our manager is not here, please come back later."
This kind of response was within Lin Yi’s expectations.
"I knew you would say that, so let’s not play games. If he is not here, I’ll wait here until he returns, regardless of how long it takes."
Seeing Lin Yi being so persistent, several male staff members didn’t look too pleased.
"Journalist, we’re just employees, and it’s not fair of you to make things difficult for us."
"I know this isn’t your fault, and I’m not here to make things difficult for you. I just want to talk to your manager to address this matter, so I hope you’ll cooperate."
"We can’t cooperate, please don’t make things hard for me, feel free to take photos, nobody will stop you."
After saying that, the male sales representative left, leaving the two of them in the sales hall without concern.
"Are you journalists from the TV station?"
After a few minutes, a voice was heard.
Lin Yi turned around and saw a middle-aged man walking in from outside.
He was in a suit and leather shoes, with a white shirt underneath. His attire was more formal than the other sales staff, and his demeanor was quite different.
"That’s right."
"I’m the manager here, my name is Gao Shengjun, what can I do for you?"
"We want to know about when the construction will resume. We hope you can provide a clear answer."
"This is not the place to talk, please follow me."
Gao Shengjun made a gesture to invite them, leading Lin Yi to a room at the back, which seemed to be his office.
Gao Shengjun took out two bottles of mineral water and handed them to the two.
"The company has held meetings to discuss this issue, work will resume shortly. I hope you can give us some time."
"This matter has been stalled for a year without resolution; just recently, someone came to defend their rights, and you even handled them roughly. Saying this now is hard for us to believe."
Gao Shengjun maintained a faint smile, remaining courteous and polite.
"The incident the other day was a misunderstanding. The staff got emotional and accidentally pushed someone, causing him to break his arm. But we paid for the medical expenses and didn’t mistreat them."
"The real neglect isn’t these minor actions; it’s about solving the actual problem."
"I understand what you mean, please wait a moment."
Gao Shengjun stepped out, and the two chatted in the office.
"Lin Bro, do you think this approach will work?" Zhao Yuhuan whispered.
"I feel like this guy is just a smiling tiger, brushing us off without actually doing anything."
"The fact that you can see through this means you’ve matured." Lin Yi replied with a smile:
"We weren’t expecting to solve the real issue today, nor does he have the power to do so. We’re mainly here to gauge their attitude toward this matter."
"Understood."
While the two were talking, Gao Shengjun returned from outside, holding two envelopes, and also locked the door.
"Journalists, let’s talk about some private matters. Please stop recording and speak candidly."
Lin Yi nodded, motioning for Zhao Yuhuan to turn off her phone.
"The camera is off, so I hope you can speak honestly with us." Lin Yi said:
"After all, we didn’t come here with any malice; we just want to resolve the issue."
"I understand, but we are indeed discussing it in meetings, and there should be an outcome soon."
As he spoke, Gao Shengjun handed over the two envelopes.
"Your visit was unexpected, and I didn’t prepare anything, but please accept this. I can’t let you leave empty-handed. I’ll call you as soon as we have news, and we’ll do our utmost."
Lin Yi glanced at the envelope; judging by the thickness, there was about 10,000 yuan inside.
Zhao Yuhuan was a bit puzzled, being new to the job; this was her first time encountering such a situation and she wasn’t sure how to handle it.
Lin Yi remained calm. When Gao Shengjun took out the envelope, he knew it contained money.
"As I mentioned, we are journalists and we practice truthfulness. We can’t accept this; I just need a clear answer."
Gao Shengjun’s expression changed slightly, surprised that Lin Yi’s attitude didn’t soften upon seeing the money.
"I understand your work ethic, this is just a small token of appreciation. Don’t overthink it; we’ll still strive to solve the problem, you have my word on that."
"The time, I need a specific time." Lin Yi said firmly.
"Well..."
Gao Shengjun’s face turned unpleasant, not expecting Lin Yi to persist like this.
"Sorry, I can’t give you a specific answer to that."
