Prior to this, senior officials of the Shuangqing government, led by First Vice Mayor Meng Xun, quickly held a meeting to discuss the handling of Dream Entertainment being reviewed by the Online Entertainment Review Office.
At the meeting of the Shuangqing government, Meng Xun advocated that the Shuangqing government should protect Dream Entertainment and that the Shuangqing government should come forward to negotiate with the Online Entertainment Review Office. After all, the issue of Dream Entertainment affects the whole body. If Dream Entertainment wants to withdraw from Xia Kingdom,
This will involve other wholly-owned subsidiaries of Mirui Technology, causing a collective evacuation.
Director Bai Qiang of the Shuangqing City Police Department seconded Meng Xun's proposal, while Xie Nanfeng, the deputy mayor in charge of economics, naturally opposed it.
Fortunately, Meng Xun was so powerful that the proposal he implemented was successfully passed and was officially announced on the homepage of the Shuangqing government's official website at eleven o'clock.
It was also eleven o'clock, and Shi Lei drove to the teachers' living area of Shuangqing University. On May 1st, the school had a natural holiday, and in the year, the May Day holiday was still seven days.
The white Porsche Cayenne was parked downstairs at Li Zhiyue's house. Shi Lei carried the gifts upstairs, arrived at the door of Li Zhiyue's house, and knocked on the door.
Today is the first day of vacation. Li Zhiyue's family did not visit any relatives or friends. Huang Fen's voice came from the door, "Who is it?"
"Aunt, I'm Xiao Shi." Shi Lei responded through the security door.
The security door opened and Huang Fen said enthusiastically: "Xiao Shi, please come in quickly, please come in quickly!"
Shi Lei walked into the house, handed the gift box in his hand to Huang Fen, and said politely: "Auntie, I came to the door rashly and brought a small gift. I hope you won't dislike it."
Huang Fen is a snob, how could Shi Lei not know how to deal with her? The so-called small gifts cannot really be small gifts. The gifts Shi Lei brought this time were a very tacky gold bracelet and a paperweight.
To Huang Fen and Li Kunning.
A gold bracelet will indeed be unsightly in future generations, but now, it is definitely a good gift. Especially given Huang Fen's money-grubbing character, giving her a gold bracelet is a pretty good choice.
"What kind words are you talking about? Xiaoshi, you came at the right time. We made delicious food for lunch today." Huang Fen took the gift box, and she also knew that Shi Lei would not really give any small gifts.
Li Kunning was sitting in the living room, watching the news channel, and happened to hear the news that a subsidiary of Mirui Technology would completely withdraw from Xia Guo.
Since Shi Lei was no longer a student at Shuangqing University, Li Kunning was lukewarm towards Shi Lei, showing neither obvious disgust nor agreement with Shi Lei and Li Zhiyue.
"Sit down!" Li Kunning said in a friendly manner.
Shi Lei nodded and stood opposite Li Kunning.
Li Zhiyue walked out of the room. She glanced at Shi Lei and whispered, "What are you doing here?"
"Ahem, Teacher Li, don't I miss my aunt's cooking skills? Come and have a meal on the way." Shi Lei scratched his head and said naively.
"You are no longer a student of Shuangqing University, so there is no need to call me Teacher Li." Li Zhiyue said expressionlessly.
Li Kunning glanced at Shi Lei, then at Li Zhiyue, and took the initiative to speak: "Shi Lei, the news just now said that your company is about to withdraw from Xia Kingdom, right?"
Li Zhiyue replied on behalf of Shi Lei: "Dad, Shi Lei is still a shareholder of that company. This time he withdraws from Xia Kingdom, he may have to follow the company!"
Li Kunning's eyes were a little complicated. He didn't know whether he should be happy or worried. As Li Zhiyue's father, Li Kunning knew his daughter's character very well. She clearly fell in love with Shi Lei, and what she said just now was just an angry talk.
But from his own point of view, Li Kunning actually doesn't want Li Zhiyue and Shi Lei to be together, not only because of the inappropriate age, but also because of the identity gap.
Even though Shi Lei is no longer a student at Shuangqing University, Shi Lei is young and wealthy. Who can guarantee that Shi Lei will not abandon his daughter in the future?
Li Kunning looked at Shi Lei seriously, "Shi Lei, if your company withdraws from Xia Country, will you also leave Xia Country? Or even immigrate and change your nationality?"
Shi Lei did not answer immediately, but looked at Li Zhiyue. Li Zhiyue deliberately turned her head to one side and did not look at Shi Lei, but there was worry in her eyes.
In case Shi Lei leaves Xia Kingdom, the relationship between her and Shi Lei...
How can humans be ruthless if they are not grass and trees?
How could Li Zhiyue remain indifferent to Shi Lei's kindness to her? Women are all emotional creatures, so how could they not feel that he was really kind to her?
"Professor Li, congratulations on your promotion!" Shi Lei said in congratulations in reply to the question.
Li Kunning frowned, "What do you mean?"
Li Zhiyue also looked at Shi Lei, waiting for Shi Lei's answer. She didn't know what Shi Lei meant.
In his previous life, the deputy dean of the School of Engineering of Shuangqing University did not retire now, but four years later, when Shi Lei graduated from Shuangqing University for a year, Li Kunning repeatedly stopped him from being with Li Zhiyue.
At that time, Li Zhiyue told Shi Lei something. Although his father had a bright future, he was still worried about not becoming the school leader, especially the position of deputy dean of the Academy of Engineering. After Li Kunning failed in the competition, he was in a bad mood. Li Zhiyue asked Shi Lei not to
During that time, he provoked Li Kunning.
Shi Lei had almost forgotten about this matter. Today, when Meng Xun mentioned the position of vice president of the Academy of Engineering, Shi Lei suddenly thought about it.
Come on, the best way to capture Li Kunning is to satisfy Li Kunning's desire to become a school leader.
Shi Lei said with a smile: "Professor Li, I heard that a vice president of the Academy of Engineering is about to reach retirement age, right?"
Li Kunning's pupils suddenly dilated a bit, showing his inner surprise and shock.
‘This Shi Lei, how does he know that I have thoughts about the position of deputy dean?
"Where did you hear the news?" Li Kunning asked calmly and calmly.
Shi Lei chuckled, "Professor Li, although the current situation of our company is not very good, I personally know many friends in Shuangqing City, and one of my friends told me."
"That's because your friend's message was wrong!" Li Kunning snorted.
Li Zhiyue explained for Shi Lei: "Shi Lei, no vice president of the Academy of Engineering has retired recently. The oldest president, Lu Houyi, will take four years at the earliest to reach retirement age."
'Four years? It seems that this is Lu Houyi!' Shi Lei secretly confirmed the situation. Meng Xun would naturally not deceive him. A vice dean of a university department, in front of the first deputy mayor of the city directly under his jurisdiction, had a discussion with ordinary civilians.
There is no difference.
"Zhiyue, my friend still has some power in Shuangqing City. There should be no problem with this matter." Shi Lei first responded to Li Zhiyue, and changed the title from 'Teacher Li' to 'Zhiyue,' to test Li Kunning.
manner.
As expected, Li Kunning's expression froze and he snorted in a nonchalant manner, "Shi Lei, you should be careful when making friends. Try to have as little contact with those friends who are neither trivial nor trivial!"
Shi Lei had a strange look on his face. What expression would Meng Xun, the first deputy mayor of Shuangqing City, have shown if he knew that he was said to be a dishonest person?
"Ahem! Professor Li, your Shuangqing University should announce this matter in the near future. By the way, I think Professor Li is a good candidate for the new deputy dean!" Shi Lei said in a flattering tone.
He said in a tone of voice: "In the Academy of Engineering, who else is more qualified than Professor Li?"
In terms of seniority, there is indeed no one in the Academy of Engineering who is more qualified than Li Kunning, but in terms of background and connections, there are a lot of people who beat Li Kunning instantly. In his previous life, the reason why Li Kunning was not elected as the vice president was because of his background and connections.
reason.
Li Kunning's breath hitched. Li Kunning had dreamed of getting the position of deputy dean of the Academy of Engineering. But he also knew that although he was the most qualified, he was also the least promising.
Not to mention that Lu Houyi will not retire for the time being, even if he retires immediately, it won’t be Li Kunning’s turn!
Li Zhiyue looked at Shi Lei anxiously. She knew what her father was thinking. If this was just a joke by Shi Lei, this joke would definitely not be funny!
Shi Lei pretended not to see Li Zhiyue's hint to him, but looked at Li Kunning with a smile, and continued: "Professor Li, remember to invite me during the celebration banquet. I will be the first to congratulate you."
Li Kunning hesitated a little. Thinking of Shi Lei's identity and wealth, a trace of extravagant hope arose in his heart.
Li Kunning took a long, slow breath and tried his best to stay calm, "If that's the case, of course you will be indispensable!"
However, Li Zhiyue pursed his lips and said: "Shi Lei, you did a good job of changing the subject and successfully avoided the question just now."
Shi Lei blinked at Li Zhiyue and said playfully: "Zhiyue, regarding Dream Entertainment Company, please continue to watch the news!"
At this time, Huang Fen had already finished cooking lunch and asked Li Zhiyue to go to the kitchen to serve the food.
The lunch was indeed richer. Although Huang Fen's cooking skills were not as good as Ouyang Xiang's, they were still very good. Shi Lei had an extra bowl of rice.
Li Kunning, on the other hand, was very worried and had no intention of eating.
After lunch, Shi Lei didn't stay any longer. Although he wanted to stay with Li Zhiyue for a while, now was not a good time. Dream Entertainment had many things to deal with.
After Shi Lei left, Li Kunning finally couldn't help it and inquired about the situation from Li Zhiyue: "Xiaoyue, do you know who the friend Shi Lei mentioned is?"
Li Zhiyue shook her head, "Dad, how do I know? Shi Lei never told me!"
"Then... do you know what kind of friends Shi Lei has?" Li Cunning asked unwillingly. Shi Lei aroused hope in Li Cunning's heart. If there was no hope, the mood swings would not be too big. But there is hope.
After that, I couldn't suppress the excitement in my heart.
Huang Fen interjected from the side: "Old man, why are you asking these questions? If you want to know something, call Xiao Shi yourself. For the sake of my daughter, he will definitely tell you everything he knows."
Li Zhiyue's face turned red, "Mom, what are you talking about!"
On the other side, Shi Lei arrived at the Dream Entertainment headquarters in the Jade Building. He had received information that the Shuangqing government supported Dream Entertainment.
Now that the Shuangqing government has made a clear statement, Shi Lei is also ready to consider what conditions should be put in place for Dream Entertainment to stay in Shuangqing City.
