58 Signing the Contract

Early the next morning, Li Tianlan and Chen Li brought the Divine Dragon Software to the entrance of the Municipal Bureau. Outside the guardhouse, Chen Li and Li Tianlan were extremely nervous.

Last night, Li Chengqian told them in detail about the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software.

He also displayed the chat history with Qin Datong.

The old couple was extremely shocked at first, but thereafter their hearts swelled with pride.

Then, he briefed the old couple on the contract signing with Qin Datong. Li Chengqian found an excuse for himself. “If I take leave frequently, it will affect my studies. Although I scored full marks the last time, there’s a possibility of my grades falling if I become lax.”

Of course, Li Chengqian had already communicated with Qin Datong in advance about his parents signing the contract.

Why did Li Chengqian do this?

It was just to occupy the old couple’s time, so that their imagination won’t run wild. Else they would be trying to find a job again.

At the same time, Li Chengqian also wanted to use this opportunity to let his parents know that he really had the ability to support them.

“Hello, Officer Qin. We’re from Divine Dragon Software Company. Li Chengqian asked us to come and look for you to sign a service contract for the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software…” Li Tianlan called Qin Datong nervously.

“Please wait a moment. I’ll come and pick you up immediately.” Qin Datong sounded very tired, however there was also a tinge of excitement in his voice.

The night before, apart from those hard disks that were physically damaged, all the other previously unreadable hard disks that the Municipal Bureau had accumulated over the years were restored using the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software.

After analyzing the restored data, it was found that of the 37 cases that previously couldn’t be cracked, damning evidence could be found for 36 cases. They could proceed to arrest the suspects.

For the remaining case, it was found that the restored data was unrelated to the case.

Wang Dawu, the head of the Criminal Investigation department, didn’t sleep the entire night. His eyes were bloodshot, but he was especially excited.

Wang Dawu had been mobilizing the police force the night before. He proceeded to arrest the criminals one after another as and when he obtained concrete evidence of each crime.

By dawn, 39 suspects had been arrested.

These people had always been brazen as they felt that the Municipal Bureau wouldn’t be able to find concrete evidence to convict them. Thus they were cursing and swearing when they were first brought in.

After Wang Dawu showed them the recovered surveillance footage, they went silent. Then, their faces turned ashen. They were handcuffed and squatting on the ground in a daze. There was only one thought on their minds. “How is this possible? How did they recover the surveillance footage from the hard disk?”

“Xiaoqin, is Li Chengqian here?” Wang Dawu leaned over when he heard Qin Datong speaking on the phone.

“Li Chengqian is still a student and has gone to class. His parents have come over to sign the contract with the Municipal Bureau on his behalf. I’ll go bring them up,” Qin Datong replied as he walked out.

“I’ll go with you.” Wang Dawu quickly followed.

The Divine Dragon Data Restoration software had been a crucial help, as such, even Wang Dawu had a good impression of Li Chengqian. When he heard that Li Chengqian’s parents were here, he felt that it would be best if he went to receive them personally so as to be respectful.

…

“Hello, I’m Qin Datong. Welcome to the Municipal Bureau. Please come in.” After Qin Datong walked out of the door, he hurriedly went forward to greet Li Tianlan and her husband. He was extremely respectful, and the smile on his face was extremely amicable.

“Hello, I’m Wang Dawu. Welcome. You’ve been a big help to us this time. Please come in.” Wang Dawu was all smiles as he gestured respectfully for the two of them to enter.

“You’re too polite, you’re too polite!” Li Tianlan and Chen Li were flattered. They had never been in such a situation before, to be treated so respectfully, and by a police officer no less. This was an unprecedented experience.

They were both happy and flustered.

“I’m a straightforward person and I don’t stand on ceremonies. I want to thank you for raising such an outstanding child! We used the software he developed to arrest 39 criminals in one night.” Wang Dawu’s expression turned solemn.

“If not for the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software, these 39 people might never have been captured! They would have been at large.”

“They will secretly gloat and laugh at us for being incompetent!”

But now, they are fearful, and remorseful.”

Wang Dawu kept heaping praise on Li Chengqian as they walked.

While Li Tianlan and Chen Li were proud, they were also uncomfortable and a little embarrassed.

Wang Dawu duly took his leave after he brought them to the meeting room. His mission was not completed yet. He could only rest after he had sent all the people he arrested to the detention center.

Moreover, he had to update his boss on the situation after the mass arrest the night before.

After the few of them settled down, Li Tianlan nervously handed the printed contract to Qin Datong.

He had seen the contract. The amount was 100,000 yuan and was for the right to use the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software for a year.

Although he had already seen the contract the night before, he still found it unbelievable.

He was still worried that the Municipal Bureau may not sign this contract.

Qin Datong took the contract and reviewed it carefully. When he saw that the amount was 100,000 yuan, the trace of guilt in his heart appeared again.

“Wait a moment. I’ll go look for the boss to sign the contract.” Qin Datong took the contract and walked towards Chief Zhao’s office.

…

Meanwhile, in Chief Zhao’s office, Wang Dawu was enthusiastically updating him on the situation the night before. After Chief Zhao, who was usually serious, heard the report, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

Just then, Qin Datong knocked on the door and entered.

“Xiaoqin, you did well this time! You solved 36 cold cases at one go. You also made progress on the other cold cases,” Chief Zhao said with a smile.

“Chief Zhao, it was under your wise leadership and because we bought the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software!” Qin Datong said, paying the Chief a compliment.

“Alright, stop flattering me! Everyone has contributed. Of course, the greatest contribution is the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software!” Chief Zhao said with a smile. He was in a good mood because a large number of cold cases have been cracked.

“Chief Zhao, the people from Divine Dragon Software are here. This is their contract. I’ve already reviewed it and there’s no problem. Please sign it.” Qin Datong handed the contract over.

“How much was the final deal?” Chief Zhao took it and asked casually.

“100,000 yuan a year!” Qin Datong answered honestly. “I asked Li Chengqian if 100,000 yuan a year was okay, and he agreed without bargaining.”

“The software is so effective. 100,000 yuan is a little low!” Chief Zhao, who was about to sign, paused for a moment. He pondered for a moment and said, “Li Chengqian has been so supportive and cooperative. We can’t shortchange him.”

“Chief Zhao, I feel the same way too!” Wang Dawu slapped his thigh and said with approval, “The data restoration software we bought last year was crap. It was useless and cost 200,000 yuan! The Divine Dragon Data Restoration software was so powerful that it solved 36 cases, and yet we are only paying 100,000 yuan. No matter how I think about it, it doesn’t make sense.”

Chief Zhao thought for a moment and made a decision.

...

The price had already been agreed on, so it was impossible to raise the price this year. This would be against the rules. However, he could give support in other aspects.

“Xiaoqin, write a letter of appreciation to their company in our Bureau’s name.”

“In addition, give me a copy of the software test report. I’m going to the provincial office on Monday to give an update on the 36 cases. I’ll use the chance to recommend the Divine Dragon Data Restoration software to the leaders.”

“You’re familiar with the software, so be prepared to come with me when the time comes so that you can do a good demonstration to the leaders.”

Wang Dawu and Qin Datong were both shocked to hear what Chief Zhao said. “Chief Zhao’s support for Li Chengqian is simply unprecedented.”

Chief Zhao personally recommending the software to the provincial office was way more effective than any advertisement that Li Chengqian could buy.

The provincial office could make a central purchase for the various branches if they found the software useful after testing.

The service fee would be at least three million yuan a year if it was a provincial-level contract.
