One thousand five hundred thirty-six - seven chapters
.
In fact, Chen Taizhong was very doubtful whether the office director named Tang had the intention to give himself eye drops. If he was so crazy that he didn't know the importance and rashly took the extended Lincoln, the consequences might be serious.
As everyone knows, Director Tang is also feeling aggrieved. Why is he willing to do things in such a big way? Doing so is not only extremely exaggerated, but also suspected of lowering his status.
However, the old saying is true, “One lie needs ten sentences to cover it up.”
The same is true in officialdom. There is no medicine for regret in the world. Since you have done something wrong, you must work hard to make up for it - even if it is an overcorrection.
But fortunately, Chen Taizhong didn't have enough brains. He reacted quickly. Director Tang was able to point out that Director He also participated in the discussion. This was because he was not calculating his own thoughts, otherwise he would just keep silent and just sit back and watch the fun.
That's the right way.
Director He participated in the discussion, and the level of this meeting became higher and higher. However, the Chen family was used to seeing big leaders, and they were not frightened by the addition of an additional department-level cadre.
He talked unhurriedly and his thoughts were clear and organized. When faced with random questions, the young deputy director not only made witty remarks, but also made two extremely humorous sentences from time to time, which fully demonstrated his language ability.
It was vivid and vivid. It was the demeanor of a "professional reporter" that overshadowed all the leaders present.
Director He was very satisfied with what he said. He was not angry because this young man had stolen his limelight. Of course, leaders from the ministry still had the qualities they should have. He did not say much during the discussion.
In just one sentence, his appreciation has been clearly demonstrated.
Towards the end of the discussion, he even hinted that after returning to Beijing, he would consider inviting Chen Taizhong to the ministry to exchange experiences. “Right now, the ministry is facing unprecedented opportunities for development. This opportunity is both pressure and pressure.
We must not let down the expectations placed on us by the party and the people."
“In order to better and more fully verify the truth that ‘technology is the primary productive force.
I think everyone must go all out. Some working procedures at the grassroots level are worthy of reference by our leadership. Today Xiao Chen gave a very good talk. If the recent work tasks were not too tight, I would have invited him to Beijing to go to OnePlus.
It can bring great enlightenment to people!”
All in all, this symposium was a successful, progressive, and uniting meeting. It was also a victorious meeting. Its significance is of great importance, and the author does not need to elaborate on it.
However, as everyone knows, Chen Taizhong is always accompanied by trouble. No matter how smooth things are, if he has a hand in it, there will always be problems of one kind or another. When the meeting is over, trouble will come again.
Already.
The meeting entered the free discussion time at 5:10. Of course, it was said to be a free discussion, but in fact, the rules that should be mentioned were still mentioned. However, everyone could whisper to each other in private, turn on their mobile phones, etc. The atmosphere of the meeting was not so serious.
When Chen Taizhong saw someone secretly turning on his cell phone, he followed suit and turned on his own. His phone had a lot of levels. Even though it was set to vibrate, it still kept ringing.
There was a text message among them, which was from Wei Minghe, which meant that the card game had been contacted and we were going to fight in the evening. We knew that he was in a meeting and it was not convenient to answer the phone. So I notified him of this message.
Chen Taizhong received more than this message. While he was flipping through it calmly, Director Tang from the office came to him quietly, "Director Chen, let's have dinner together tonight? The deputy governor in charge, Zhang, will come to the banquet. "
Governor in charge? Chen Taizhong was stunned when he heard this. He thought to himself that Governor Zhang was not seen in the afternoon, but he would appear during dinner in the evening. What does this mean?
Of course he knew that the governor's work was very busy. But he always felt that things were not that simple. After thinking about it again, he understood, "Oh. Governor Zhang is saying goodbye to Director He, right?"
Director He will have an early flight tomorrow morning. Everyone knows this. When Director Tang heard that he guessed the reason, he couldn't help but smile in a low voice, "Well, there are both factors. It not only welcomes Director Chen, but also gives a warm welcome to Director Chen." The leadership lines of the department are different."
"Forget it, how dare I steal Director He's limelight?" Chen Taizhong smiled and shook his head. Since he is no longer the guest of honor at the reception, it doesn't matter whether he attends the reception or not. It just so happened that Lao Wei was still there. I asked him to help me. "I have a friend whose father is celebrating his 60th birthday. I can't go without him."
Say that reading is all there is
You want to steal Director He's limelight. Do you have the ability? Director Tang despised him in his heart, but his face looked surprised and disappointed. "This" Director Chen. Governor Zhang also wants to see him. As soon as I see you."
"That one is a very important friend of mine. This one is of great significance." Chen Taizhong smiled bitterly. He also looked quite embarrassed, "Anyway, I have to make a report to the leaders and comrades of the fraternal units in the prefecture-level city tomorrow, so I won't be able to leave for a while." It won’t work.”
"Oh, then I understand, please try to coordinate again." Director Tang sighed and left silently, but he was muttering in his heart: This guy is too crazy. He doesn't take our Qingjiang provincial governor to heart. superior?
In fact, he knew very well that if Director Chen made up his mind not to buy into Governor Zhang's account, he really would not buy it. Although the governor was a big man, he was from across the province. The person named Chen was in Tiannanhe Ministry It was so red that it was impossible for Governor Zhang to go to these two places and twist his lips for such a trivial matter.
Why is this guy so arrogant? Director Tang really can't figure it out. After much deliberation, there is only one possibility, and that is: Chen Taizhong thinks that Governor Zhang did not attend this symposium and thinks that the province does not respect him enough.
It’s really weird to be able to come to this conclusion. The deputy director thinks that the deputy governor doesn’t give face. But Director Tang doesn’t think that he is just being whimsical. After all, Director Chen’s temper is there. Yesterday, he could abandon Director Liu and leave today. People think the province doesn't respect him enough and don't buy it. It's not impossible.
Of course, Chen Taizhong never expected that if he didn't attend the reception, others would think he was taking Qiao.
Frankly speaking, Director Tang's guess is not particularly unreliable, but it is definitely not the main factor. He mainly thinks that the deputy governor is here and the target is Director He. If he is present, he will definitely be marginalized. .
The Chen family is used to running rampant in Tiannan, and he is not familiar with Director He, so he is unwilling to be this guest. Besides, yesterday he got along with the Provincial Science and Technology Commission, and now he takes the initiative to treat this young man as inferior, so it is inevitable that he will be looked down upon by others. He said that he only dared to dominate the industry but did not dare to provoke provincial cadres.
What's more, the look he gave to the Provincial Science and Technology Commission yesterday may be remembered by others. There really was that guy with ulterior motives at the wine table, scolding and sarcastically asking, "Did he commit double deception or should he not have done it?" ?Anyway, there are always some people who are intoxicated in the officialdom. If this is the case, he must not agree to this cocktail party. The buddies are here to exchange experiences, not to exchange drinking capacity. If you are willing to accept the entertainment, you can accept it. If you are not willing, who will Of course, if there is no reason to refuse, it would be a bit rude. However, he agreed to Wei Minghe yesterday, and he found the reason, so he felt quite at ease when he refused.
Therefore, after the symposium, he actually left like that. After Hu Shang heard about it, he couldn't help but frown. "Who is this friend Xiao Chen? Is it really so important?"
Director He was on the side and heard this. He knew that Director Hu was expressing his dissatisfaction tactfully. To be honest, he couldn't accept Chen Taizhong's behavior, and he thought that your temperament is suitable for this person. Damn you, if you dare to act like this even when you are in a ministry, within a year you will be tormented by all kinds of tricks and put in a dilemma of life and death.
However, I think so, but I can't say so. Director He knows that both Minister Jin and Minister An appreciate Chen Taizhong. This is also the main reason why he shows his kindness to this young man. Although he is now in the local area, There is no need to act as cautiously as in the capital, but it is better to say less about topics that may attract the attention of the two ministers. You are not so quick to talk.
So he slightly chinned his lips calmly. Xiao Chen has a wide circle of friends, and he really has friends all over the world."
What does this mean? Director Hu faintly heard that the other party seemed to be a little dissatisfied in his words, but at the same time he seemed to be excusing Chen Taizhong. He glanced at it from the corner of his eye, but found that the director's face was calm and indifferent, not at all I couldn't see any signs of it. After hesitating for a while, I finally stopped dwelling on this topic and said, "Director He, you have traveled all over the world and traveled back and forth across the country. It's very hard..."
After this symposium, Phoenix Science and Technology Committee Chen Taizhong’s arrogant reputation finally spread across the country and spread across the country. However, the Chen family did not expect the consequences. He underestimated the degree of close unity in the science and technology community and the spread of news. Spend.
Wei Minghe didn't expect Chen Taizhong to come so quickly. When he wanted to come, the symposium was over. There must be a dinner party. His text message was just to tell Taizhong: Don't drink too much in the evening. We still have activities. Woolen cloth.
Who would have thought that he didn't even eat at all and rushed over directly. Director Wei felt a little emotional for a moment. "Taizhong is really a good friend. It's not in vain for me to help you and shoulder Hu Shang."
"You have the nerve to say that you are carrying Hu Shang?" The Chen family snorted disdainfully and raised their eyebrows, "You are only of that level. I am not as knowledgeable as you, but I refused Governor Zhang's cocktail party."
"Governor-in-charge Zhang Bo?" Even if Wei Minghe was brave enough, he couldn't help but vomit when he heard this, but he immediately smiled and nodded, "Haha, I understand. Yesterday our brothers were in the limelight too much. Today you Afraid of being provoked by villains."
"Then I'm going to the reception." Chen Taizhong glared at him and pretended to leave. Wei Minghe quickly stopped him with a smile, "Tsk, tsk, Taizhong, Taozhong. Isn't it okay that I was wrong?"
Chen Taizhong looked at him dumbfounded for a moment, then laughed, "It's true that I'm wrong, but I can think so, but you can't say so. You're not stable enough."
"Go away, who are you talking to about this official talk?" Director Wei smiled and pushed him, "I already live a very low-key life, this is not called prudent. What is prudent?"
Chapter 1537 How Gambling Gets Started The game started at eight o'clock in the evening. Wei Minghe and Chen Taizhong ate a little casually without drinking, and rushed to the Guesthouse of the Agriculture and Animal Husbandry Department early. Here is
It was contracted and had just been renovated.
Today's bet is decided here.
Director Chen also laughed at Director Wei on the way, "This small scene makes you not even in the mood to eat. Minghe, your vision is not too high."
"Do you think everyone is like you, able to take out three or five tons at will? The landlord's family has no surplus grain. They took away my little one ton." Wei Minghe glared at him angrily, "Besides, it's such a miserable loss.
Today I am holding back my energy to win it back, and when I win, let’s celebrate well, it doesn’t matter if we spend all the money we win.”
"I know." Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded, "You're asking Miss Kuo to open a brothel, not for making money, but for pleasure."
"I asked you, you guy, why do you talk so much about evil?" Wei Minghe was a little dumbfounded by his remark, "Is your hometown from Tianjin Wei?"
The two people pretended to be suing, so they came to the guest house, handed over the two million they carried with them, and exchanged it for a pile of chips. They were led into a room. The room was very large. It was probably not more than thirty square meters.
, there is a round table in the middle of the house, one and a half meters tall, it looks very ordinary.
Four groups of people have already arrived in the room, sitting on the sofa next to the wall and chatting casually. Some people have brought followers, and some people come alone. Almost everyone has a cigarette. How can they do this in such a big room?
Gotta be a little smoky.
"Director Wei is here?" A short, fat guy nodded to Wei Minghe with a smile. Wei Minghe nodded calmly, "It turns out to be Mr. Li. You guys arrived early."
"Well, just wait for Xiao Luo to come and we can open a stall." Mr. Li nodded with a smile. "We have you two strong men today, so everyone is on tenterhooks."
When playing Zhan Jinhua, you also have to look at your opponent. When everyone has a similar net worth, it depends on their personal gambling habits. Some people dare to bet secretly without looking at the cards, while others are cautious and will fly away if the cards are not good.
Okay, let me follow you along. Chen Taizhong understood immediately when he heard that Wei Minghe must have been relatively fierce when he played, otherwise he wouldn't have lost seven or eight million by playing a game with a cap of 200,000 a few times.
"Are you afraid that your heart won't be able to bear it if you earn too much?" Wei Minghe smiled faintly. Although he was quite self-deprecating, the arrogance in his words could not be concealed no matter what.
"You all know each other very well. Is there anyone here?" Seeing this, Chen Taizhong asked in a low voice, "We all have status, who can afford to disgrace this person?"
"I'm so anxious, who cares about my identity or not?" Wei Minghe shook his head lightly, looking very disapproving, "Besides, I don't know what company this guy is, and he doesn't know where I am the director.
.”
For those who can enter such a place to play, some people's identities are suitable to be exposed, and some people's identities are not suitable to be exposed. Although Director Wei is not afraid of anything, he does not want others to know his true identity.
"Then how did you get into this circle?" Chen Taizhong was a little curious, "This is inconsistent with your identity."
"Tch, it's also a coincidence. Jin Minghe smiled and shook his head. Anyway, there are still people who haven't come yet. I had to whisper." Chuan Yun, I bet he helped a boss a while ago. The boss wanted to give him money, but he didn't.
It is a hindrance to the middleman's face and is inappropriate.
The boss knew that he was powerful and wanted to win over him, so he dragged him to participate in the gambling game and laid down a million dollars. "It's just a fool's game anyway. If I win, you pay me back. If I lose, I lose."
After all, Wei Minghe is young and loves to play, and he is alone in Qingjiang. He is bored when he is idle, so he starts playing. Who would have thought that he would lose all the one million in his first time and still add one hundred and sixty to himself?
Thousands.
Moreover, others don’t know his identity. They only know that he is a division chief. As the provincial capital of Qingjiang, Jinyang has 10,000 division chiefs. That is an exaggeration, but there must be thousands of them, right?
So no one took him too seriously.
Of course, no one takes him seriously, and no one blames him. It doesn't matter whether he is a director or not. The key is that he has money to do things, so he can't be underestimated. But this "not being underestimated" is very important to Wei Minghe.
, even if it is less respectful.
So at the end of the card game, someone "kindly" reminded him, Director Wei, you played too hard. Your hands are behind your back. From now on, play evenly. Why should you be angry? We can't be angry with money, right?
At this time, Wei Minghe was not convinced. Who do you think you are? You dare to talk to me like this? You have to go back and participate twice more, just to show your pride. If you weren't lucky, I would have lost.
Even worse.
In recent times, he has become more restrained, because he can see that everyone has different confidence. Some people play too cautiously. When playing with six people, some people understand the cards and dare not follow even a small pair in hand. And he has a
With k in hand, I dare to fight with one or two. The one that can be bigger than k is four a. It's not small.
Within a few words, Ronaldinho arrived. She was a woman in her thirties, with an average appearance. So the gambling game officially began. Wei Minghe pushed Chen Taizhong onto the field, but he sat behind him and watched.
Chen Taizhong also played with golden flowers, and even disabled one of the hands of a guy named "Lao Liu". But that time he acted like that because he deliberately made the other person look bad, but this time it was not necessary.
His gameplay is similar to Xu Chunliang's. He must hide every hand. After three turns, he will raise his hand to look at the cards. If the card is good, he will follow it. If the card is bad, he will fly away. He is very confident but plays conservatively.
.
However, his luck was pretty good. After an hour, he actually won more than 400,000 yuan. Ronaldinho played very hard beside him, but he was so unlucky that he lost almost 600,000 yuan. He was so annoyed that he couldn't help but smoke.
Ronaldinho smoked slender lady cigarettes, and he seemed to be quite addicted to cigarettes. Chen Taizhong looked at a circle of cigarettes and felt a little bored. Who would have thought that he was not angry yet, so Ronaldinho had already spoken, "I said
Director Wei, your friend's style of playing cards is different from yours."
She is also a master who dares to play cards when she has a king. In the past, with Wei Minghe's support, the two of them could squeeze out some big names, but Chen Taizhong came up and played well and even a little stingy, leaving her alone to play.
It was quite fierce, and I was stepped on a few times, which made me feel really depressed.
It’s okay for women to play cards, but why do they have so many problems? Chen Taizhong was annoyed, but he felt that these people were really not worthy of his anger. He didn’t say much. He picked up the handbag on one side, put his hand in, and then took it out.
At that time, I already had a huge single-wrapped cigar in my hands - you are not the only ones who smoke.
This cigar was thick and big, with a diameter of more than two centimeters. Chen Taizhong didn't know what brand it was, but he just saw such a cigar. The way others looked at him was immediately different. Mr. Li laughed and said, "
Xiao Chen, what you are holding... is a cannon, right?"
"Casablanca?" Wei Minghe is a man who knows what's good. He laughed when he saw this, "I didn't expect you to be so good at this, Taizhong. Is there any more?"
"There's more." Chen Taizhong stretched out his hand and took out another box and handed it to him. He also pulled out a small alcohol lamp and took out a small silver ring, but it was a cigar cutter - he had never smoked one.
It's a cigar, but I saw Nangong Maomao smoke it before, so I know how to do this.
"Ha, you are really well prepared." Wei Minghe took the cigar with a smile, raised his hand and took out an exquisite lighter, lit the alcohol lamp, unpacked the cigar, and used pliers to cut off the tail. Slowly
It was baked on top.
When it was almost roasted, he was about to put it in his mouth, but Chen Taizhong grabbed the cigar with his hands and lit it on the lamp without hesitation. "Well, this one belongs to me. If you want to smoke it, smoke it.
That one."
"My heart..." Wei Minghe was stunned for a second, thinking that no one has ever enjoyed the cigars I smoked except my old man. But then he thought, forget it, I won't tell you the truth. "
One service costs one hundred thousand."
Chen Taizhong didn't bother to care about his thoughts. He picked up his cigar and took one puff after another. His lung capacity was much larger than that of ordinary people. Within two minutes, the entire table was filled with mist, as if he was in a thick fog.
The cigar is a good cigar, and it tastes really good. But no one else can stand it when he smokes it like this. Someone immediately said, "Brother, can you smoke it slower? You are almost making me shed tears."
"
"This is my lucky cigar. The more you clap, the more prosperous it becomes," Chen Taizhong replied with a smile. But in his heart, he snorted, "Heng, you are not the only ones who know how to smoke in these circles."
Even though Ronaldinho is a heavy smoker, he still can't bear the foreign stuff. He keeps smoking one after another. Hearing what he said, he couldn't help but snort, "No matter how strong your hand is, you still don't have Director Wei's heroic spirit in playing cards."
"Who doesn't know how to be heroic?" Chen Taizhong snorted. Without looking at the covered cards, he put the chips in his hand on the table, "Three rounds of dark are enough, right? I didn't even look at it. Ming and 200,000
.”
To be precise, he didn't pick up the cards to look at them. But that day's sight was not for nothing. The ace, q, and mouth of spades killed the whole table. What's especially rare is that the others also had straights and kings.
Flower, this card is too small.
Ronaldinho picked up the cards. The biggest one was q. Follow it if you are willing. Thinking that the two famous cards could not all be scams, he hesitated and finally threw the card away angrily and said, "It's gone."
