Chapter 1396 Asking for help and helping
Doug's identity as a criminal also prevents him from revealing his plans casually.
So although he had made an agreement with Thomson to withdraw after making the final vote, he also did not elaborate on it with Dora before the matter was settled.
Even because he was worried that something might happen in the end, Doug was unwilling to involve Dora.
In fact, both of them are used to being self-centered. Their first reaction when encountering a problem is to solve it by themselves instead of discussing it with the other party.
"Maybe we're not actually suitable."
As Dora walked, she began to review and think about her relationship with Doug in her mind.
"Since you're here, I can't sleep now. Why don't you tell me everything and I'll be your adviser and give you some advice."
Just when Dora was about to walk out of the door, Zhang Pin suddenly called out and stopped her.
Although Dora's request for help seemed a bit inexplicable, Zhang Pin thought about it and did not ignore it completely.
The most fundamental reason is, of course, that Dora is beautiful.
Sir Zhang did not lie to himself about this.
In addition, even he is actually very curious.
Dora knew her identity clearly, but she asked her for help, asking her to help her criminal friend.
To be honest, anyone who hears this kind of thing will find it baffling.
The same is naturally true for Zhang Pin.
But in addition to being baffled, it is inevitable that there is also a bit of curiosity.
Zhang Pin has woken up now, and for him, there is actually one more person here at this moment, which can be regarded as consolidating his alibi.
So he simply called out to the other party again and asked Dora to explain the whole story.
After hearing Zhang Pin's words, Dora hesitated for a moment and actually told him about the matter.
"You actually have such a friend."
After Zhang Pin listened to Dodora's story about the process from acquaintance to mutual acquaintance, Zhang Pin actually believed what the other party said.
"Do you want me to help you get rid of that guy named Thomson?"
Then he quickly figured out what help Dora wanted from him.
Dora: "Yes, that's what I thought originally, but now"
Zhang Pin: "It's not too late now. This is called reporting. I agree to this."
Before Dora could finish speaking, Zhang Pin agreed directly and corrected the other party's statement.
Dora: "Huh?"
Dora was still silent in her own sadness, but when she heard Zhang Pin's words, she couldn't react directly for a while.
"Why, now that you have found me, you have even provided clues to the crime. Do I have to pretend that I don't know?"
Zhang Pin looked at Dora and then made a serious look.
"No, no, just, just thank you, thank you."
Dora's face suddenly showed surprise. She obviously didn't expect Zhang Pin to be so easy to talk to. While she was surprised, she even regretted not asking Zhang Pin for help earlier.
However, Dora obviously had a misunderstanding. If she had asked Zhang Pin for help in advance without what happened last night, Zhang Pin would definitely not agree to her request for help.
Now the reason why he agreed to Dora's request for help was because Dora was busy with the matter of Nick and Chris.
Although Zhang Pin knew that Dora would definitely get certain benefits from this matter, Zhang Pin was not so stingy and felt that this would settle the matter.
Since Dora is so frank and has definitely helped him, Zhang Pin will naturally not be too stingy about it.
Although Dora asked him for help, a guy like Thomson was a small role to Sir Zhang, so in this case, he was happy to be able to help him.
"But I must make it clear first. Although I can help with this matter, if your friend is already committing a crime and is caught by me, then don't expect me to bend the law for personal gain."
Although Zhang Pin agreed to help Dora, it didn't mean that he would completely act on Dora's ideas.
In fact, Zhang Pin had some selfish motives for agreeing so readily.
This time, through Dora's relationship, we cooperated with Fox TV.
For Zhang Pin, five million US dollars in funding is actually nothing. No matter how he looks at it, he will not be short of five million US dollars.
But anyway, this is the first media to officially cooperate with him.
Although because of this incident, Fox has not lacked popular news reports for at least half a month in the past few months.
But judging from the original intention of the matter, Sir Zhang actually owed Fox a favor. After all, it was Sir Zhang who initiated this matter, and the action was also the most beneficial to him.
Originally, from one point of view, Zhang Pin had to win Fox's favor.
If he doesn't accept this favor, then naturally it won't be as easy as it is now if he wants to do this kind of thing again.
But this is not certain at all.
Originally, if there was no such thing as Dora, then he would definitely be owed this favor.
But now that Dora is asking for help, Zhang Pin can take advantage of the fact that the favor is still with Dora.
After all, it was Dora who was the matchmaker from the beginning for this cooperation between Zhang Pin and Fox TV.
Now that he has directly stepped forward to help Dora, the rest of the help to him regarding the Fox report, although still related to a certain extent, will not be borne entirely by Sir Zhang.
And when he does this, no one can find fault with himself.
It can be said that Dora is not here to ask Zhang Pin for help this time, but to help him solve his urgent need.
Zhang Pin was very satisfied with this cooperation, but he also knew that as he showed his tendency, and since Fox was so cooperative, they definitely wanted to profit from this matter.
Although this report has already been very profitable for Fox, as a capital company, the other party would definitely be satisfied with this.
Zhang Pin was even ready for the other party to ask for help.
Regarding Fox's subsequent cooperation with him, Zhang Pin has made up his mind. If the matter is not too difficult, he can also take action.
If it really puts him in embarrassment or the danger is very high, he won't be stupid enough to really agree.
Although in this way, the relationship with capital that has just entered the honeymoon period will be severed soon.
And because of his lack of cooperation, coupled with his identity and race, it will be even more difficult for both parties to cooperate.
But even so, Zhang Pin was not prepared to pay too much just to establish a relationship with the other party.
Of course, now that Dora is here, things have more room for change, which is naturally better for Zhang Pin.
This is why he agreed so readily.
Just when Zhang Pin agreed to Dora's request for help and was about to deal with Thomson, Doug also started to take action.
However, before they could start preparing for their action, a small accident cast a shadow on Doug's heart. After arranging the task, Doug asked Hawkeye to have a drink with him. Originally, he wanted to ask Hawkeye to leave with him.
Doug knew very well who Thomson was. Although the other party agreed to let him quit this time, the main reason was the threat from Doug and Hawkeye.
Especially Doug, he has done things for Thomson for so many years, so he naturally has some information about the other party.
The last time Doug and Thomson negotiated, because the tone of both parties was very rude, so Thomson said something in desperation that made Doug completely determined to break up with Thomson.
That was the mother that Doug had been looking for for many years. She did not run away with someone like his father said, but she was addicted to drugs and was designed by Thomson, and eventually she hanged herself.
After Thomson said this, the two sides actually broke up officially.
The reason why the current peace can still be maintained is because the two parties have cooperated for so long, and everyone must have a handle on the other party, so everyone is afraid of the other party selling themselves out.
Secondly, neither party was ready for a merger at that time, so they simply made the final decision to cooperate and then break up the partnership.
"Thomson will definitely not let us go, so when the task is completed, I am not going to give him any more money. At that time, we will just take the money and leave. As long as we leave Luoji Mountain, he can't do anything to us. And I have also prepared a piece of evidence, which will be mailed to the LAPD tomorrow, and Thomson will definitely be finished.”
Doug's face was full of hatred when he talked about it.
After knowing that his father was caught doing something for Thomson and that his mother died at the hands of Thomson, Doug had already made up his mind not to let Thomson go.

Hawkeye was his only friend, so he naturally wanted him to leave with him.
"You and Claire get married, and we will leave with you when the time comes."
But after hearing Doug's words, Hawkeye directly made a condition.
Doug suddenly frowned: "I told you, Claire's child is not mine."
The Claire Hawkeye was talking about was none other than his biological sister.
The reason why Doug refused to agree is also very simple. He did have a relationship with Claire, and they were together for several years.
But while he was in jail for nine months for wounding, Claire became pregnant. When he was released from prison, Claire was six months pregnant.
Of course, Doug was not willing to endure this kind of being labeled. Originally, he was planning to find out who the adulterer was from Claire and then make trouble for her.
It's a pity that Claire gave birth to the child by herself, and until now, Doug doesn't know who the other party was having sex with.
The relationship between the two also ended immediately because of Claire's pregnancy.
After Hawkeye was released from prison, he had persuaded Doug several times, hoping that he could be with his sister.
But Doug naturally didn't want to agree.
Unexpectedly, he brought it up again this time.
"We are brothers. If you marry Claire, it will be a close relationship. I can help you with whatever you want me to do."
Hawkeye's anger towards Doug was obviously somewhat difficult to understand.
It is true that Claire may have given birth to a child to another man out of ignorance or for other reasons, but to them, this was not really a big deal.
"For people like them who live at the bottom, having sex is already very good. As for who the partner is, and asking the other party to be loyal to you is actually a very difficult thing in itself."

Doug: "Don't think about it, there's no way I can agree."
Doug had no room to change Hawkeye's proposal. Not to mention that Claire had put a hat on him, and even if he hadn't, now that his heart was focused on Dora, it was impossible for him to accept Claire.
"You still have to think about it carefully. People like us, apart from helping each other, cannot be trusted by outsiders."
Hawkeye still wanted to persuade.
"You should prepare well, otherwise we will strike first when the time comes. In short, we must not let Thomson go."
Doug waved his hand, not intending to continue the conversation, but walked directly outside.
Click——
"Yeah - Doug, why don't you stay and have a meal before leaving?"
Doug opened the door, but to his surprise, Claire leaned against the door and eavesdropped. Her four-year-old black son also stood aside and looked at him curiously.
Seeing Claire's son's skin color, Doug couldn't help but feel angry.
"No, we have to take action later. Let's have a good meal to celebrate after we finish it."
Doug was afraid that he could not hold back his anger, so he went out without saying anything to Claire.
"Is he still unwilling to forgive me?"
Claire saw Doug leave, so she couldn't help but look at her brother.
"Don't worry, you don't know Doug's character. He will agree sooner or later, but you must promise me that you will be loyal to him in the future."
Hawkeye also glanced at his nephew's skin color with some headache.
Their family and Doug are all white, so it stands to reason that if they have a dark-skinned descendant, it would be embarrassing to tell them about it.
However, Hawkeye himself has no children, and his sister has a child. In any case, it can be regarded as continuing the descendants of the family. Even if the biological father of this child is ominous, he cannot dislike it.
On the contrary, in order for his sister and nephew to have an easier life in the future, Hawkeye naturally hopes that his good brother will take over.
"I think there is no hope. You don't know how hard Doug's heart is. You killed Cobo and went to jail, but because Cobo went around saying that he wanted to kill Doug.
When his father was in prison, Doug was only seven years old. Our parents adopted him, but look now, he treats me as a stranger, and he looks at Bob in a scary way. ”
Claire is not as optimistic as Hawkeye.
Although Hawkeye always wants to bring himself and Doug back together, Claire, as a woman, has long known that Doug will never accept her again.
In fact, she herself was not too satisfied with Doug.
"You are not allowed to be so arrogant. He has helped our family a lot over the years, and I am still here."
Hawkeye glared hard at his sister.
Although he hopes that Doug can get together with his sister, it doesn't mean that he doesn't regard Doug as a brother.
In fact, it was precisely because he regarded Doug as a brother that he hoped that Doug would get closer to him.
Now of course it was impossible for Hawkeye not to be angry when he heard his sister say bad things about Doug.
"Why don't you stay for dinner? I ordered pizza."
Seeing that Hawkeye was about to leave, Claire asked.
"If you don't eat, I'm so angry with you."
Hawkeye was also speechless about his sister's character, but there was nothing he could do about it.
Their parents died in an accident a few years ago, and he spent nine years in prison. Not long after he was released, Claire had no one to discipline her. It can be said that it is inevitable to develop such a character.
"Hmph, if you don't want to eat it, then don't eat it."
"Don't come back again."
Seeing the two people leaving one after another, Claire immediately smashed the fruit plate in her hand angrily, startling Bob next to her.
