Chapter 442 – Taking pictures in the swimming complex! (1/2)
Kids are playing in the pool, and the air has a strong smell of chlorine.
Xu Yan adjusted her swimming cap. “There are too many people here. Xiao Dong, let’s swim in the cold pool.”
“Ok.” Dong Xuebing got out of the pool with Xu Yan and walked over to another pool.
But when Dong Xuebing used his feet to test the temperature, he jumped. “Damn! It’s too cold!”
Xu Yan had already gotten into the water, and she laughed. “You are too weak!”
“Err… it’s because you are too fit. We, youngsters, cannot be compared to you.”
“Stop your flattery.” Xu Yan moved about in the water to get used to the temperature and waved her hand. “Don’t force yourself. Just go back to the heated pool. I will swim a few laps first. The water temperature is just nice.” She finished and started swimming. There are also many people in the cold pool, and Dong Xuebing lost sight of her.
Dong Xuebing did not force himself and returned to the heated pool.
One minute…
Five minutes…
Ten minutes…
Suddenly, there is the sound of camera shutters and a few flashes!
Dong Xuebing’s face changed when he saw that Korean young man holding up a camera and took pictures of the pools. He took pictures of the celling and other facilities of the swimming complex. The swimmers in the pools were also in that photograph. This might be fine at the seaside, but this is an indoor swimming complex. Although there are no written regulations about taking pictures within the swimming complex, it is an unspoken rule. If it’s someone taking pictures of their family members swimming, it is still acceptable. But this young man is not taking pictures of his family members and is not even wearing a swimming suit. Why is he taking pictures inside?
A woman got mad. “Why are you taking pictures of me?! Did I give you the permission to take my picture?”
“You cannot take photographs here!” An older man shouted. “Stop taking pictures!”
That woman got angrier. “What’s wrong with you?! I am asking you to stop taking pictures!”
The woman shouted. “His camera is facing me earlier! How is it possible that we are not in the pictures?”
Wang Bo and the Investment Promotion Agency need to treat this group of Koreans well and not leave any bad impressions. If not, they will not invest in Da Feng County. Even when they know it is wrong to take photographs in the swimming complex, they did not stop him as it is not a written regulation.
The woman and a few others got frustrated when the government staff ignores them.
Li Xiaoan continues to take photos of the pools and swimmers.
Suddenly, someone shouted. “Who the f**k is taking pictures?!”
Dong Xuebing and other swimmers turned and saw a man in his thirties. His wife and child are standing beside him. His wife is blushing while pulling her swimsuit up and pulling her daughter’s hand away. Her daughter seems to have pulled down that woman’s swimsuit accidentally when they are playing, and Li Xiaoan happened to take a picture in their direction.
The woman is embarrassed and angry. “Delete that photograph! Now!”
Her husband, that quiet-looking man, got out of the water. “Delete that photograph!”
Xu Yan’s face changed as Li Xiaoan had taken pictures in her direction.
Dong Xuebing saw that and is furious. He knows the State Security regulations well. When he was still working in the General Affairs Office, someone took a photograph in front of the Western District Branch’s main entrance. Although the photograph is not facing the Branch and is in the other direction, that man was still brought in by State Security for a ‘chat’ for almost half a day. Now, Xu Yan is a City’s State Security Bureau Chief and is a Director-ranked government official. No one can take her picture without permission.
Many people got mad and shouted at them.
“What is wrong with you? The more we ask you to stop taking photographs, the more you take?!”
“Korean investors?! Do you think you can take photographs of anyone just because you are Korean?!”
“Hurry up and delete those photos!”
The other Korean investors might have come together, but they are not very close and chose to keep quiet.
Wang Bo felt there’s no way they can continue to tour the indoor swimming complex and said. “Let’s go to the next venue.”
The people got mad when they saw the County Government staff not doing anything to help them!
“You all are leaving?! Delete the photographs before you leave!”
“You had taken a picture of that girl’s accidental exposure! How can you leave without deleting the picture?!”
“What County government is this?! These Koreans are people, and we, citizens, are not human?!”
