Zhang Yaodong's party school classmate is the deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Civil Affairs Bureau. He is only a deputy director. However, although it is inevitable for officials working in the capital to be criticized, the resources they have access to are not comparable to ordinary people.
Director Pei had probably already accepted the notice from Secretary Zhang. He was also quite polite to Chen Taizhong who came to visit him. "It's true that Yaodong asked you to bring something here. It's really outrageous."
Chen Taizhong explained the purpose of his visit. Director Pei pondered for a moment. "I have a classmate with whom I have a very close relationship. He used to be in the Science and Technology Commission, but now he is in business. Let me ask him... the Office of Innovation System Construction, right?
"
I still want to ask now... Could it be that Secretary Zhang didn't tell him my purpose of coming? I saw the other party's attitude just now. Chen Taizhong originally thought that the purpose of my visit he explained was just clichés and nonsense. Who would have thought that he didn't know anything at all?
.
However, since the other party agreed to help inquire, this attitude was considered good. So in the subsequent casual chat, Chen Taizhong's attitude was also very good. He answered all questions. From Zhang Yaodong's physical condition to the Science and Technology Commission's investment attraction
scale.
Director Pei seemed to be very unconvinced that a municipal science and technology committee could develop to this point. Or maybe he wanted to explain it in detail to his classmates. After asking back and forth for a long time, he finally said, "Yaodong is lucky. My subordinates
I can have a talent like you."
Chen Taizhong said a few polite words. After inviting the other party to come out and sit down tomorrow, he said he was about to stand up and say goodbye. However, he unexpectedly heard Director Pei ask, "Xiao Chen, have you decided to use the elevator in the Science and Technology Commission Building?"
?"
Oh...that's it. Chen Taizhong understood. I bet Director Pei wanted to get involved in the Science and Technology Commission Building. He couldn't help but snorted coldly in his heart. What a bullshit party school classmate. There is always no profit in this world if you don't get up early!
However, he didn't want to just agree to the other party, because he set the rules of the Science and Technology Committee very strictly. Since he couldn't tolerate other people's destruction, of course he couldn't take such a bad lead.
In fact, he was more suspicious that Zhang Yaodong had made the matter clear. However, Director Pei deliberately made it difficult for his own selfish interests. He asked him to agree to some exchange of benefits - do you want to invite a deputy to come? I'm sorry.
Please give me some work.
Although Chen Taizhong doesn't know much about infrastructure, he does know that most of the jobs that companies in Beijing take over are short-term and quick jobs. Because of the different jobs, if construction is really carried out, the costs of other companies are higher.
When there are too many copies, everyone will think it is useless - it is not such a waste if it matters.
Especially things like equipment. They are the favorites of Beijing companies. The price difference comes out as soon as they are sold. How long does it take to install and debug? Beijingers have certain advantages over those companies that are debugging in terms of purchase price. Debugging
The installation costs are about the same. It’s normal to sell them at a high price due to connections.
Therefore, Director Pei must have had an idea before he asked this question. Anyway, this question is not obscure. Anyone who has been in the officialdom for three to five months will understand it clearly.
It's slow to write but quick to do. These thoughts flashed through Chen Taizhong's mind. He had the intention to say a few unpleasant words, but he was afraid that the other party would cause harm. After all, there are very few people who can accomplish things these days. There are too many people who are capable of doing bad things.
too much.
What's more, isn't this Secretary Zhang's classmate? Even if you don't give face, you can't tear it away. Thinking of this, Chen Taizhong nodded with regret. "Maybe it's not decided. I am not responsible for this."
The meaning of this refusal is very obvious. At the very least, it also expresses one attitude: You don't have a single character here. What do you want me to promise you? Sorry. It's impossible.
In fact, what he cares about most is that according to the rules of the officialdom, if there is a powerful person like Zhang Yaodong between the two of them, they should do things first and talk things over. You should handle the matter for me first. I'm afraid I can't find it.
Some work for you?
Therefore, he thought that the other party was deliberately neglecting him, but he didn't know that there were many official rules, and that also depends on the direction.
Director Pei was definitely not happy after hearing this answer. His actual deputy director role is really nothing in Beijing. But people from outside the world ask for him a lot. Beijing people just have their own sense of superiority——
Anyway, you don't have much opportunity in Beijing. I'll lay out my conditions first. If you agree, I'll help you. You have to feel that I'm quite unambiguous. I'm sorry. You can go wherever you want to go.
Let's play.
When he wanted to come to Phoenix, it was difficult to say. There was no quantitative indicator. It was difficult to judge whether it was a success or a failure: if it was true that none of the deputy departments could spare the time, that would be God's will.
no?
Anyway, how much are two elevators worth? It's just a matter of millions. In normal times, this kind of small job is really real.
And now Chen Taizhong's answer made Director Pei feel a little embarrassed. However, since the other party didn't say death, he couldn't say anything. He just smiled and nodded. "Oh, anyway, things here in Beijing can be easily handled.
It’s hard to say. I’ll try my best.”
Are you trying your best? Chen Taizhong knew in his heart that he probably made the other party dissatisfied. He walked out of Director Pei's house and wandered around on the street.
In the noisy city and the vast sea of people, he felt an indescribable loneliness. Looking at the colorful neon lights around him, he felt a little nostalgic for the years of cultivating immortals in his previous life.
Unknowingly, he walked near Jing Junwei's studio. Looking at the bright lights in the room, he felt a little warmer in his heart for no reason. He strolled in and went up to the second floor to drink noisily.
"Mr. Jing isn't here?" Chen Taizhong looked around. There were seven or eight people in the room. Everyone placed wine and food on a huge root-carved coffee table. The wine was beer. The food was also cold dishes, peanuts, cooked meat, etc. bought from the street.
"Not here." Someone answered him, but seeing that he looked unfamiliar, he didn't say anything more. Instead, a small woman in her twenties murmured at the sofa. "Sit down. He may not be back tonight."
Mr. Chen was really bored. He sat on the sofa and listened to the noise of this group of people. But in his heart, he was thinking about the matter of the Science and Technology Committee. Should he ask anyone for help?
Not long after, his phone rang again. It was a call from Nangong Maomao. "Ha. Taizhong came to Beijing? Why didn't you call to say something?"
Huh? This guy is quite well-informed. Chen Taizhong smiled and answered him, "It's nothing. I didn't want to disturb Boss Nangong. How did you know I was here?"
"Ma Xiaoya saw you. But she didn't dare to recognize you. So I made a call to give it a try." Nangong smiled on the phone. He was wandering on the street just now. Ma Xiaoya was driving by.
Ya see.
Ma Xiaoya is the former column host of Central Television. She has a good relationship with Mr. Yu. She met Chen Taizhong last time when we played cards. However, the beauties of the imperial capital are always relatively reserved. What's more, she has been a host?
But she also heard from Nangong Maomao that the Phoenix man she met last time finally invited people from the Huang family. Yes. The man named Chen was not only generous, but also gave Nangong hundreds of thousands in gratitude fees.
Said that he was also appreciated by other people in Nangong.
So of course she had to call Nangong. When Nangong heard this, he had to find Chen Taizhong to confirm. "Ha. Since you are here, let's come to Beisanlitun. We are playing here."
Chen Taizhong was about to refuse. Thinking that Nangong Maomao might have the ability to get to know the people from the Science and Technology Commission, he hesitated but agreed with a smile. "Where is Sanlitun?"
After he asked, he stood up and apologized and left. However, those who were drinking heard the name of the bar he said and looked at each other. "Mr. Jing, this friend is not a peaceful person. He went there in the middle of the night."
That kind of method.”
"For people, this is the beginning of nightlife..."
When Chen Taizhong arrived, he found Nangong and seven or eight men and women gathered together. When he saw him coming, Nangong stood up and said hello. "Taizhong is late. I am punished with alcohol."
After he sat down, Nangong Maomao made a casual introduction. Only then did Chen Taizhong know that the people here are all seeking life in Beijing. Only two of them are outsiders. One of them is from a certain city in Haijiao Province.
Police Chief Yang Ming.
Yang Ming's appearance looked like he was only in his forties. Chen Taizhong bared his teeth at him and smiled. "Such a young deputy director. Director Yang, you have a bright future."
Director Yang felt a little unhappy when he heard his careless speech. You are just talking to me like this when you are so young. However, he came to Beijing to do business because of Nangong Maomao. Since this guy is familiar with Nangong, he can't
What does it mean? Anyway, there are a lot of strange people in the capital. It is impossible for him to care about such a trivial matter. If he says no, he can only laugh about it.
Nangong Maomao put her arms around Chen Taizhong's shoulders and asked, "Why are you here alone? I'll find two young ladies for you. You can pick your own."
"I'm not interested in that stuff." Chen Taizhong shook his head.
"Ma Xiaoya seems to be quite interested in you." Nangong Maomao kept smiling at him. "How about it? Do you want me to call her over to you?"
They're all just buses. You don't need to bury your buddy, right? Chen Taizhong smiled and shook his head. "It's not like you haven't seen my girlfriend before. There is someone prettier than her. It's not too late to introduce her to her."
"Xiao Jing, that's true." Nangong Maomao also admired Jing Ziling's beauty. "Taizhong, your demands are too high, right?"
"Isn't that Xiaojing pretty?" A lady on the other side couldn't sit still. This woman's name was Su Wenxin. She didn't have a good face and figure, but her skin looked bad and her body was slightly fatter. She glanced at him sideways.
"Nangong, how do you compare with my sister?"
"Everyone is good at winning. Everyone is good at winning." Nangong Maomao seemed unwilling to provoke her. He laughed a few times. "Okay, it's time for Xiaowen to sing. Open the window."
