Chapter 557: If You’re Looking for Hackers, I Know Someone Who Could Help
He gave one more line of explanation. “Master Wang wanted to check on something, but no one accepted his request until now.”
“Ohh.” Jiang Xianrou wasn’t interested in the organization of hackers. However, when she knew that Ye Wangchuan was looking for a hacker, she casually answered, “If you’re looking for a hacker, I know someone who could help.”
She saw Qin Si looking over at her.
Her smile was reserved. She knew that Zhou Hengfeng had a decent position in the domestic hacker community, so she spoke softly but confidently. “His name is Zhou Hengfeng. He was a student of my grandfather. Now, he’s a slightly well-known hacker in China.”
Before Qin Si could speak, Zhang Yang’s expression turned to surprise and he interrupted their conversation. “Miss Jiang, are you referring to big boss Zhou Hengfeng?”
Zhou Hengfeng was one of the best in the hacker community in China. Everyone was envious of him.
“Zhou Hengfeng is a proud man. He’s not the kind of person who would just accept any request. The likelihood of him accepting a request is less than the chance of someone going to heaven. Some time ago, my family’s company faced some problems. My parents wanted to enlist Zhou Hengfeng’s help, but he refused, even after we pulled in a lot of favors.”
After saying all that, he looked at Jiang Xianrou with admiration in his eyes and said enviously, “As expected of Miss Jiang. You’re so influential, to be even able to call Zhou Hengfeng to take on a request.”
It was difficult for Qin Si and Ye Wangchuan to enter this exclusive circle. So far, only Jiang Xianrou managed to do so.
Ye Wangchuan wasn’t here tonight. Not everyone here was a part of their small circle. Some people that Qin Si had called over tonight were also trying to get into their small circle.
For example, this person with a head of hair looking like a bird’s nest. His family was a little rich and had some connections. He was roaming around various circles and finally got the opportunity to join this evening’s party. Naturally, he was trying hard to please Qin Si.
However, he didn’t dare to suck up to him directly. After much consideration, he decided to start a connection with Jiang Xianrou first!
He had been singing Jiang Xianrou’s praises all night. He agreed with and praised whatever she said. He also praised her high status.
This method of flattery was common to the people in the circle. However, when they saw how much Zhang Yang was sucking up to her, they couldn’t help but frown contemptuously.
The only person who seemed to be enjoying the attention was Jiang Xianrou. She smiled and said, “Uncle Zhou is my elder. I can ask him, but I cannot guarantee that he will help you. However…”
She changed the tone of her voice, looked at Qin Si earnestly, and said, “However, if I mention that the request is from you, it’s likely that he will accept it.”
Zhou Hengfeng had a strong character and a reputation.
He also changed his attitude based on who he was facing.
Ye Wangchuan was also a person who stood at the top of the hierarchy in Beijing. Qin Si was at a slightly lower position. No matter how lofty Zhou Hengfeng was, he still lived in Beijing and had to earn a living.
He knew who he could afford to offend and who he should never offend.
With regards to showing off, when done in front of the appropriate people, it would seem like he was confident, unconventional, and lofty.
However, in front of the wrong people, he would just be tempting fate!
Jiang Xianrou knew in her heart that Zhou Hengfeng was also not a fool. He wasn’t as influential as Master Nie. If he were, he wouldn’t have to befriend her family. In the past, she had asked Zhou Hengfeng to help track down Zhui Guang’s IP address. Did he not help her out in the end?
If it were a request made by someone else, would he have helped to look up such trivial matters?
She took out her cell phone and was about to call Zhou Hengfeng.
At this moment, Qin Si had already forwarded the email to Ye Wangchuan. Noticing that she was about to make the call, he immediately stopped her and said, “There’s no need to call him.”
