Chen Taizhong had already seen the driver's behavior, but he didn't care about it, just as the driver thought: he just wanted to cut off the evil hand that was stretched out, and if necessary, he could use extreme means to shock him, but he had to make a mistake as a last resort, and he didn't want to
He did something too great - today he has already met two deputy mayors in a row. It is really not appropriate to make enemies on all sides.
These three people were obviously scared away, and from this point of view, it partly acted as a deterrent.
Even so, he was still a little dissatisfied with the driver's unorganized and undisciplined behavior. He thought that the district government was flying with all kinds of gossip because there were too many people like you. So when he got in the car, his eyes were on
The driver's face stayed for half a second longer.
Although it was just a faint glance and only lasted for more than half a second, the driver subconsciously hid the Chinese cigarette behind his back, and his heart was beating wildly. He immediately decided that as long as the leader wanted to talk about it, he would immediately give all the reasons
No matter what I say, I take it out for the good of the district.
But how could District Chief Chen care about a little person like him? The target of the conversation was Catherine or Secretary Wang, "Miss Kennedy is getting better and better at doing business, and she even remembered to bring us benefits."
He didn't mention benefits just now because he didn't know what Catherine would bring. Now that he saw it, he felt at ease. Something worth a few hundred yuan was not considered a bribe, but just a gift of friendship.
"Xu Chunliang told me that he gave you two hundred mobile phones. Later I met Shao Guoli and heard that he came to Beichong empty-handed. I even laughed at him and said he was stingy," Catherine replied proudly.
Although she is already very familiar with the domestic officialdom, she is still used to being straightforward when speaking and doing things, as it is now. And she did not forget to add, "By the way, when you leave, you have to bring me souvenirs..."
This is what comes and goes."
She spoke in an understatement, but everyone who listened was secretly surprised. In addition to Prince and Beichong people, there were two outsiders in the car, Secretary Wang and Hong Chuang. Everyone knew the names of the people she mentioned.
Wang Ninghu also knew these two people very well. It was he who presided over the pairing of Beichong and Phoenix Science and Technology Commission. Although he had never met Shao Guoli, he definitely wanted to know about the master who dared to throw a drunken face at Gui Chensheng.
So he is not unfamiliar with this name either.
Thinking that Catherine would laugh at that arrogant guy, Secretary Wang couldn't help but secretly sigh that these people Chen Taizhong knew were really tough. In fact, he had to admit that the circle they played in was not accessible to ordinary people.
, even though he is the secretary of the municipal party committee, he only sees it with envy.
If not... I can make more friends with Xiao Chen, and maybe I can get in touch with this circle. Wang Ninghu sighed inwardly.
Just when everyone was secretly frightened, District Chief Chen replied with a dry laugh, "There really aren't any local specialties or anything like that in Beichong, so we don't have what we want... I really want to disappoint Miss Kennedy."
Our district chief is too strong, right? Hearing this answer, the people of Beichong were even more shocked. The American investor brought gifts to cooperate, but District Chief Chen did not intend to return the gift. Putting aside the identity of this beautiful foreign investor,
Let's put aside the record-breaking investment of 500 million, just say that this beauty can laugh at Shao Guoli, then she is an incredible person.
Chen Taizhong certainly didn't want to show off his awesomeness when he said this. Although he likes to show off his strength and loves to show off, this is only a secondary purpose. His main purpose is to explain the scene at the airport just now.
Catherine's joke at the airport was a bit too much. Although everyone knew it was a joke, District Chief Chen is currently in Beichong. What he is most worried about is the reputation of his style. He doesn't need to care too much about other things.
So he had to make it clear that although we are familiar with each other, when it's time to save face, I won't be vague.
When Secretary Wang heard this, he also felt that Chen Taizhong's answer was a bit insincere. After waiting for a while, he found that no one was speaking. Just when he was about to open his mouth to speak, he heard Miss Kennedy speak, "There are good things in Beichong..."
Mangmabu is good.”
"Then I'll give you a ton," Chen Taizhong replied nonchalantly. To Beichong, mango linen cloth was really not a rare thing. "It's just that the current craftsmanship is still a bit rough."
"Let's give him a backpack. The six-frame backpack in Gold Flash Town is very famous," Secretary Wang couldn't help but interjected.
Linen is simply a raw material for textiles, not even a semi-finished product. What they give you is a top-notch industrial product, a Philips razor. That is the final form of the product, so he feels that District Chief Chen’s attitude is very wrong.
If you send it out, it needs to be reprocessed. If we send it out, we also need to send out some finished products. The glitter gold backpack is really good."
"The problem is... what she likes is fabrics," Chen Taizhong smiled bitterly, "Secretary Ninghu, this woman never knows how to be polite when it comes to us Qianbu, she just says what she wants."
"It sounds very straightforward." Wang Ninghu was stunned for a moment, then nodded with a smile, "Yes, you should just say it directly if you want it. Miss Kennedy, do you really just want the burlap?"
"The production effect of the linen cloth is really good. District Chief Chen brought me some samples and I tried them," Catherine replied with a smile, "It's really good. The texture is fine and droopy. My costume designer
They designed several styles for me. In my suitcase, I have a linen windbreaker and a hunting jacket, which are made of Beichong linen."
"Your fashion designer?" Ge Baoling whispered softly. She is a woman and naturally loves beauty, but as a native of Beichung, she was extremely shocked by this sentence, "My own fashion designer?"
In fact, she was not the only one who was shocked by these words, but she was the one who showed it clearly.
"Yes, I like this fabric very much," Catherine said with a smile. "My fashion designer also believes that this is the best material discovered in the fashion industry in the past three years..." However, this material is not promoted enough.
.”
Seeing everyone's stunned expressions, Chen Taizhong admitted that this was indeed a great sense of achievement, but he could not let Catherine fool her, so he laughed dryly and said, "We have been considering the promotion issue. Thank you, Miss Kennedy, for your concern."
"Director Chen, I know you are very capable, but you are far inferior to me in promoting this kind of thing." Seeing his expression, Catherine retorted lightly, "I can let Mangmabu have a special show at New York Fashion Week... you understand
It’s not easy.”
New York Fashion Week special show...Okay, Bei Chongren and Secretary Wang are both so shocked that they can't speak. Can you two talk about some more realistic issues?
"I don't understand what those things are at all," Chen Taizhong replied calmly, "I feel that Abel can also do this. Of course, this may be my illusion."
"Abel...he is so different," Catherine snorted disdainfully. "In fact, Li's model is more willing to get to know you than him...isn't it right?"
"Ms. Kennedy, can I ask you to pay attention to your wording?" Chen Taizhong coughed dryly. In fact, at this moment, everyone in the carriage showed a smile of one kind or another.
The district chief's gossip sounds very interesting.
"Okay, let's not talk about this issue for now," Catherine smiled slightly. She liked to see him look embarrassed occasionally, "Actually, the main reason I came here this time was to take a look at this thing called mango."
Aren’t you here for the power plant project? At this moment, too many people have deep confusion in their hearts. However, confusion is just confusion. Many times, what they hear and see
, may not be the truth.
At this time, Wang Ninghu finally had time to interject, "Xiao, Chen, since the funds are about to arrive, have you considered contacting the local power company and getting a three-party contract signed?"
"Contact the ground and electricity..., the three parties are not equal," District Chief Chen looked at Secretary Wang and smiled. He guessed that the other party suggested this, but he may not really want to do this. Kang Xiaoan is also the main hall, will he be willing to be matched by you?
?So he clicked on the topic first, and then went on to explain, "Our financing is financing, and signing is signing. Isn't it a bit awkward to do it together?"
"It makes sense," Secretary Wang smiled and nodded. From his face, there was no sign of being annoyed that the proposal was rejected.
Since we are not going to Xiaozhao Township, we are not in a hurry. At about 1:30, the car drove to a service station, and the group went in to replenish some water. When we got on the car again, it was two o'clock.
At half past five, the bus arrived in Yangzhou. Secretary Wang and Hong Chuang got off the bus and transferred to an Audi car to go to the city. The Jinlong bus continued to drive toward Beichong. Until this time, there were no outsiders in the car.
Then District Chief Chen asked, "How did this Yangzhou office get in touch with Prince Company?"
"They came to the door," Catherine said lightly, as if she didn't want to say more.
Chen Taizhong was not afraid to ask more questions. In fact, he was eager for someone to spread the news that Beichong was not welcoming the Yangzhou office. However, seeing Catherine's appearance, he decided to wait and ask again, otherwise others would notice the two of them.
The relationship is no longer good.
When the car got off the expressway at Beichong, it was close to 6:30. Fortunately, Sui Biao actually led someone to wait at the intersection. District Chief Chen couldn't help but secretly muttered: Old Sui, aren't you a little too proactive?
"District Chief Chen, you have worked hard all the way." Secretary Sui stepped forward, shook hands with District Chief Chen, and then shook hands with Catherine. It was already dark, but under the bright car lights, facing the
Secretary Sui was still distracted for a moment by this stunning white-skinned beauty.
Sui Biao came here without anyone from the party committee. In the car behind him were the three deputy district chiefs of Beichong. Moreover, the residence arranged for Catherine was also in accordance with the wishes of the district government, which was on the second floor behind the district government.
**Small courtyard.
At this time, the benefits of this kind of small courtyard became apparent. There was no problem for eight people from Prince's company to live in it. However, Miss Kennedy said that she was not willing to live with men, so the four men were still arranged to move in.
Beichong Hotel.
Chapter 3405 So that’s it
The residence is divided into two places, and the dinner party must be in two places. There are quite a lot of companions here in Beichong. In addition to Chen Taizhong and Sui Biao, there are also four deputy district chiefs, office director Li Hongxing, and the vice-president of the CPPCC who was squeezed in.
Chairman Lin Huan.
There are eight people, plus Catherine and her assistant Elizabeth, and there is exactly one table. As for the other attendants of Prince's company, Liao Dabao can only greet them. Fortunately, his English has not been completely lost.
Down.
Catherine sat at the top. District Chief Chen and Secretary Sui sat next to him. On the other side of Secretary Sui, Elizabeth sat. It looked a bit like the Beichong District Party Committee Secretary hugging two foreign beauties.
kindness.
Before anyone could use their chopsticks, another person barged in outside the door, but it was Liu Kangmei, the chief engineer of the underground power plant. He greeted with a smile, "District Chief Chen, Secretary Sui... please add another chair, I can sit wherever I want."
The chief engineer of the underground power plant is the deputy director of the company. Mr. Liu said this, which is considered a correct attitude. Seeing this, District Chief Bai simply stood up and said, "Mr. Liu, please sit here with me. I will go and greet the other people in Prince Company."
people."
District Chief Bai's seat was next to that of District Chief Chen, which was considered to be at the front of the queue. Liu Kangmei was not picky at all. He walked over and sat down with a smile, "Thank you, District Chief Fengming, for lending you the throne. I will return it to you later."
When Chen Taizhong saw this, he gave Li Hongxing a hard look. You know what you mean. The deputy district chief knows how to give up his seat, but you, the office director, can sit quite firmly.
This was the second time that District Chief Chen had the idea of replacing the office director.
Liu Kangmei intervened forcefully, naturally with the intention of contacting Prince's company. What Dielectric currently lacks most is investors, but today is a reception banquet, it is not appropriate to talk too much, and everyone at the banquet table mostly chats.
The meal was sumptuous, but no one drank much, because the group from Prince's company had been working very hard since the morning, and what they needed most was to have an early rest.
So it only took about forty minutes, before eight o'clock, Chen Taizhong accompanied Catherine and Elizabeth to the small courtyard, accompanied by Ge Baoling and Lin Huan.
District Mayor Ge is accompanying her, which is normal, because she is the only female deputy district mayor in the district. Chairman Lin does this, which is a bit disrespectful, but since he is willing, others can't say anything.
District Chief Xu also heard that this American investor was very interested in the mango and hemp industry. He originally planned to accompany him, but when he saw so many people accompanying him, he finally gave up the idea, using the excuse that his two daughters needed to be greeted.
, turned and left.
Chen Taizhong and the others had not taken a few steps when Bai Fengming also caught up from behind. District Chief Bai was drinking happily with his entourages when he suddenly heard that the stalls next door were empty, so he handed over the rest of the reception work to him.
Liao Dabao.
For District Chief Chen, District Chief Ge is still an outsider at the moment, but since she is taking pains to squeeze into this circle, he does not intend to be too cautious, "Catherine, you are a little too generous to that Zhang Weiguo today, right?"
"
"It's you Hengbei who are too troublesome. The governor, the office and so on are all here together. I have to give you some face, right?" Catherine couldn't help but sigh when she heard this, "This Zhang Weiguo also beat me twice.
The call was answered by Isha... He directly said on the phone that Beichong is just a district in Yangzhou."
"This is a bit too despicable," Ge Baoling was the first to express her stance, and she was indeed a little indignant. "The city and the district are competing for business...isn't this a naked threat?"
Chen Taizhong also nodded, but he didn't think what Catherine said was all true. He thought that if Miss Kennedy didn't want to deal with other people in Hengbei, there must be other ways. She was quite troublesome.
, most likely still want to take the opportunity to expand business in Hengbei - businessmen value profits, both at home and abroad.
He didn't care much about this possibility. As long as Beichong's money could be guaranteed, wherever Prince liked to invest, it had nothing to do with her, so he thought of another question, "Who is this Zhang Weiguo?"
?”
As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Lin Huan. This question was a bit sensitive. I guess Chairman Lin dared to speak, right?
"There are old local factions, there are people in the province," Lin Huan really dared to say. In fact, now Beichong is united and united in dealing with the outside world. He is not afraid to make it clear, "Mayor Li and Secretary Wang... have
I will use him sometimes.”
This means that Zhang Weiguo is a fundamental third-party force and has little to do with Li Qiang and Wang Ninghu. Considering that Huacheng's separatist intentions are supported by some people in the central government, this executive deputy should not be that simple.
Moreover, Huacheng is absolutely unique in Yangshuai. Not only is it the only county-level city, it is also very public in its actions. If Yangzhou wants to effectively manage it, it must have the cooperation of local forces.
"But even so, isn't it a bit too unscrupulous?" Chen Taizhong was silent for a while, then snorted coldly. At this time, the small courtyard arranged for Catherine to stay had arrived.
When District Chief Chen stepped into the small courtyard, he realized that there were many people around him. He coughed dryly and said, "Come in, everyone. Miss Kennedy has the habit of drinking after-dinner drinks at night."
Beichong Hotel specially assigned a waiter to provide services to the distinguished guests. After the waiter was busy for a while, District Chief Chen, District Chief Ge, District Chief Bai and Chairman Lin all sat down. Catherine and Elizabeth also sat on the sofa.
There are two other ladies in Prince's company, but they haven't returned yet.
After sitting down, the three ladies drank red wine and the three men drank beer. Bai Fengming took a sip of beer and then hummed, "I don't know who gave him such courage."
"Why is he so brave?" Lin Huan was a little strange. District Mayor Bai had already heard about what happened at the airport in the morning from other people in the district government, but he, the vice chairman of the CPPCC, was not sensitive enough to the news.
Already.
Ge Baoling sat aside and started talking. She felt that the relationship between this American beauty and District Chief Chen was very unusual. Of course, this does not mean that there must be a physical relationship, but what is certain is that the relationship between the two people is absolutely good.
.
Therefore, District Chief Ge was not afraid to repeat what happened in the morning in front of her. She spoke in great detail and it took almost five minutes to explain everything clearly.
Many of the details were unknown to Bai Fengming. After hearing this, he and Lin Huan exchanged glances, and Chairman Lin smiled and said, "What does District Chief Fengming think?"
District Chief Bai laughed dryly, glanced at Ge Baoling and said to himself that she might have thought of it too, but he couldn't tell this guess, so he nodded to Lin Huan, "I don't have any ideas, Chairman Lin, let me tell you."
"You don't dare to say that." Lin Huan pointed at him with a smile and turned to look at Chen Taizhong, "The municipal party committee is probably going to move. If Zhang Weiguo is not given the courage, he will not dare to do this."
The words woke up the dreamer, and District Chief Chen suddenly realized that with this answer, all the unreasonable phenomena he encountered today had reasonable explanations.
Because Wang Ninghu was leaving, he was very polite to Chen Taizhong. Before leaving, he was able to take the lead in implementing this big project, which was also a highlight in his official career. And with this political achievement, maybe he could fight for it.
Move to a better position.
This can explain Secretary Wang's approachability, and it can also explain why Mayor Zhang is so arrogant. Although you are the top leader of the municipal party committee, you are already counting down the days, so there is no need for Mr. Zhang to be too conceited.
Once the municipal party committee and municipal government are adjusted, there will inevitably be a vacuum period in the city's power. At this time, the least affected are the local factions, and Zhang Weiguo can take the opportunity to cause trouble.
The people of Huacheng were already domineering. How could they resist the greed in their hearts when they saw such a big pie and such a good opportunity to plunder?
Lin Huan and Bai Fengming can guess the cause and effect because they have been in Yangzhou for many years and understand the power structure of the city's officialdom very well.
Secretary Wang usually faced Zhang Weiguo, but there was never a time when he was so weak.
To understand this, District Chief Chen did not belittle himself, and Lin Huan made it very clear that even if other deputy district chiefs had guessed such a huge matter, they would not have the guts to tell him that only Chairman Lin on the second line could do it.
Dare to speak out your guess.
"They are treating us as soft persimmons," Chen Taizhong smiled slightly, raised his hand and drank a lot of beer, then put down the bottle and let out a long belch, "If I had known this was the case, I should have put Yangzhou in
Take those three people from the Beijing Office to Xiao Zhao Township."
"We don't need to pay too much attention to what's going on in the city," Bai Fengming nodded and said, "As long as you, the district chief, are determined, if the Huacheng people dare to hand their claws to Beichong, we will chop off their claws."
"That's right," District Mayor Ge also nodded. She dared to instigate people to cause trouble in front of the district government, and she was definitely very courageous. "It's hard for us in Beichong to have this kind of development opportunity. We can't agree to whoever comes to pick peaches.
"
"Haha, there's no need to be so tense," Chen Taizhong laughed when he saw her statement like this, "As I said again, I came to Beichong to do things. We don't take the initiative to cause trouble. Of course, we are definitely not afraid of trouble."
"Actually, they have already bullied me to the extreme," Ge Baoling said unconvinced.
District Chief Chen shook his head lightly, "The opportunity is still not mature enough... Forget it, let's not talk about this. Miss Kennedy is new here, let's talk about something happy..."
