Where are the people? Where have they gone? Goosebumps rose up on Jerry's body after sweeping the floor. Not only did he not hear the sound of the door opening and closing, he didn't even feel the air movement that should be caused when walking around.\\
Hearing that Swenson was still making noise, he finally yelled in a low voice, "Shut up, Swenson, you idiot! Do you really want to die?"
"Huh?" Swenson finally came to his senses when he heard his voice. Even though he was unusually thick, he was really afraid of Jerry being angry. He hurriedly picked up the beer can, looked around again, and then turned his head.
Turning to Jerry, "I just... seemed to see a person. Did you see... uh, what is that box?"
"I saw it, it's not your hallucination," Jerry nodded solemnly, then pointed to the box, "This is what we came for...you know? You are very lucky, very lucky."
"God, how did these boxes... get in? Did I sleep? Or did that bastard do something to me?" Swenson could not understand this supernatural phenomenon at all.
"Shut up, you stupid pig, he can hear what you say now," Jerry said coldly, this was his guess, "If you don't want to die, just shut up, your
Your mission is to cooperate with me, you idiot!"
In fact, his guess was true. Chen Taizhong was really present. He didn't care about the jewelry. But he had to fulfill his promise to Meng Yi, right? Now that he has arrived in Hong Kong, he can secretly observe the other party's actions.
It's right.
Anyway, he is extremely good at doing this kind of thing. In his last life, he even relied on this method to defeat two opponents who were more powerful than him. Now it is even easier to face mortals, but it feels a bit embarrassing.
"Okay, okay, I'll shut up." Svensson raised his hands to indicate that he would stop arguing, then turned to watch the TV and couldn't help but muttered again, "Shit, the shot highlights are over... That guy is stupid
How long has it been?"
But where does Jerry have time to think about him?
That lawyer Peng is not a reliable guy! He thought about it carefully and made a preliminary judgment. The partner this time is very powerful, but without Peng Jiaming's cooperation, things would definitely not be so strange. It goes against the laws of nature.
.
After returning home, he must report it to his boss and keep distance from this lawyer. Jerry made up his mind. If Peng Jiaming knew that his hard work had been misunderstood, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.
In fact, the owner of Peng House was not idle at this time. As soon as Chen Taizhong left, he dialed Nick's phone number and said, "Nick, the person your friend met is a bit weird."
Of course Nick knew that Chen Taizhong was weird, so he chuckled, "Haha, is it Swenson or Jerry... Oh, Jerry, I don't know that person very well, but most of the people he comes into contact with are more dangerous. Fortunately,
He was able to control the situation. "It won't cause me any trouble, will it?" Even after receiving such an explanation, Lawyer Peng still asked out loud. Of course, was he really worried or was he reminding the other party of the risks he was taking?
, then it’s hard to say.
"As long as Jerry is here, it'll be fine," Nick smiled weakly, thinking to himself, how could Chen Taizhong care about you? However, he really wanted to know what happened, "Can you tell me what's weird...
…”
Finally, Peng Jiaming hung up the phone, and Jerry called again. He wanted to report to his boss that the goods had arrived. Of course, he must also report Chen Taizhong's weirdness and his own suspicions about Peng Jiaming.
Go up.
"This guy is still a little worried about me," Nick hung up the phone and muttered thoughtfully, then shook his head helplessly with a wry smile...
However, the next development of things was in line with Jerry's guess. Lawyer Peng had already made up his mind not to care about the affairs of these two British people. It was only right for them to leave as soon as possible!
Therefore, Jerry bought four travel bags from outside and exchanged them. The owner of Peng's house just pretended not to see them, but in the end he never forgot to remind him, "Didn't you buy eight? Why didn't you take them all?"
Chen Taizhong stayed at Pengzhai until the next day, and he followed Jerry's car all the way until he arrived at the dock warehouse before Shi Shiran returned. In fact, the conversation between Jerry and Nick yesterday had convinced him
, the risk of this transaction will not be at this level.
However, while he was wandering around Hong Kong in hiding, he unexpectedly saw an acquaintance at the door of a hotel, Mr. Shao Guoli from Beijing, the guy who wanted to invite him to Macau.
Accompanying Mr. Shao were one man and three women. The five of them were about the same age. They were chatting and laughing and seemed to be in high spirits. In front of them and not far behind them, there were three or four strong men who looked like bodyguards.
Did this guy win money? So happy? Chen Taizhong muttered to himself and didn't bother to think about it anymore. Whether he won money or not was none of his business. It was just right to try to get back to Guangzhou before dark.\\
The return trip went smoothly. He arrived in Guangzhou almost before dark, found a hotel to stay in, and flew to Subo the next day.
On this trip, things went smoothly. However, even so, by the time he left the airport in Subo, it was already past four o'clock on Thursday afternoon. He left Phoenix on Friday and came back on Thursday. A week went by so quickly.
The earth passed.
Of course, he can no longer irresponsibly leave Subo this time. Meng Qinqin was very cruel last time, so he naturally wants to meet him this time. In fact, he is not that considerate, but Lu Hai
After proposing an exchange condition, he still had to ask, right?
However, it is nonsense to say that Chen Taizhong made no preparations. At the very least, he prepared a relatively exquisite gift for Meng Qinqin.
His plan was really good. Unfortunately, he met an acquaintance at the airport. Wang Xiaohu, secretary of the Hongshan District Party Committee, also came. Secretary Wang picked up an old lady. The two were walking and talking and laughing.
Hit him squarely.
Chen Taizhong didn't pay too much attention. He smiled and nodded to Wang Xiaohu. He knew that Secretary Wang was more in line with Zhang Yaodong's wishes and was gradually becoming more popular. Although it was not as good as his predecessor Kuang Shucheng, he was also working toward the core of the Zhang family.
Get closer.
Wang Xiaohu was surprised by him. After being startled for a moment, he came up to him with a smile, "Ha, Taizhong. You just came back from Guangzhou too?"
"Yeah, let's go over there to do some errands," Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded. He glanced at the old lady, and it turned out that she still had her charm. "Is Secretary Wang picking up a friend?"
"It's a classmate of mine from primary school who came back from the United States." Wang Xiaohu nodded with a smile, but his eyes were not very natural. "She...she has some money in her hands. Isn't this how to get some investment back?"
"Tsk. This is our dereliction of duty. Secretary Xiaohu needs to personally take action, haha," Chen Taizhong smiled and shook his head. Of course, his expression may not be very sincere. This is originally a cliché. No matter how powerful the investment promotion office is, it cannot be everything.
All investment projects in the city, right?
In fact, the investment attracted by the Investment Promotion Office can account for a quarter of the city's total investment quota. This is already very impressive. If you want to say it can exceed half, it must be that two or three huge projects have been completed. Unity is not just a matter of
A slogan, in the era of economic leadership, everyone will do their best. Compared with the staff of many government agencies and administrative offices, how many people are there in the Investment Promotion Office?
But Wang Xiaohu didn't think so. He explained with a smile, "Director Chen is just being polite. Now that we have met, there is nothing more to say. Let's sit down and have a casual meal together."
"I just made an appointment," Chen Taizhong pointed to his mobile phone with a wry smile, "I can't help it. I work so hard that I really don't have any leisure time. I haven't even left the airport yet, so I have to get ready to continue working."
Wang Xiaohu turned his head to look at the lady, and explained to him in a low voice, "Taizhong, I am really here to attract business. You must not think wrongly. I, Old Wang, am not the kind of person you think."
"Haha," Chen Taizhong was amused by his nervousness, "I didn't say anything, why are you so guilty? Secretary Xiaohu, don't worry, even if you are that kind of person, I can prove that you are here for
The economic development of Phoenix City has sacrificed the personal to benefit the greater self... Devoting oneself to work is quite worthy of respect."
"You don't have a good word in your mouth," Wang Xiaohu was very angry at him. However, the two of them worked together to punish Liang Jianqin. Secretary Wang attended the unveiling ceremony of Taizhongku, and Lu Qiang's factor
, although the two of them don't move around very much on weekdays, in terms of relationship, they are really close.
"My classmate's husband just died and she inherited some money. After elementary school...after graduating from elementary school, she pestered me for a while," Secretary Wang explained in a low voice, "Taizhong, give me face and participate."
"Isn't that just right? I think she's pretty good," Chen Taizhong said happily to him, "At least she'll be a good match for you. If you show your appearance to others, you'd still look over fifty."
"No kidding, really," Wang Xiaohu's face tightened and he said solemnly, "Taizhong, you don't know your sister-in-law's temper. If I want to be alone with her, your sister-in-law will cause trouble with the Discipline Inspection Commission tomorrow.
Let’s do it.”
"Didn't I see it? If I hadn't seen it, you wouldn't have just eaten, right?" I have to admit that Chen Taizhong's emotional intelligence has improved a little bit now, "I will never tell anyone, isn't that enough? I
Something really happened...Secretary Xiaohu."
"Don't give me this face?" Wang Xiaohu didn't explain, but just looked at him angrily.
"Don't I want to delay your good things? Your classmate... is really pretty good," Chen Taizhong answered him with a smile.
Chapter 968: Support
In the end, Chen Taizhong still couldn't bear Wang Xiaohu's repeated invitations. He smiled and nodded and agreed. That's how it is here, sincere invitations and false perfunctory, everyone can feel it. If someone invites someone enthusiastically, if he really doesn't give face, the other party's heart will inevitably feel.
There will be some grudge.
For no small matter, Lu Qiang casually gave Wang Xiaohu a ride, and Liang Jianqin severed their friendship for many years. Li Yiguang just ignored the old secretary Diguan's talk about appropriation, and Pali hated him to the bone.
Of course, Wang Xiaohu may not be a vengeful master, but... why bother? Why do things that may offend others?
But Chen Taizhong still had to explain, "Let's do this. You guys find a place to stay first. I have to go to the Bank of China to run some errands. We really have an appointment. Let's contact each other during dinner. Is that okay?"
It doesn't matter if you said I wanted to meet you earlier. I just hung up the phone and bumped into Meng Qinqin. It goes without saying that he was depressed. Forget it, let's find a bar and just sit down with Section Chief Qin.
alright.
"Okay," Wang Xiaohu smiled and nodded, then glanced at the woman, leaned over and asked in a low voice, "Taizhong, can you find two friends to support the show?"
"A supporter?" Chen Taizhong turned to look at Secretary Wang. He was quite puzzled. Meng Qinqin was a good supporter. However, "Secretary Xiaohu, what do you mean?"
"We haven't seen each other for more than ten years," Wang Xiaohu smiled bitterly, with a rather emotional tone, "Although she didn't say it, she must think that I am just a local bully now. I should be more... grand."
"Haha. I understand," Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded, giving him a strange look, "You still say it's nothing, so you can just be tough and show off."
"They just informed me before they got on the plane. It's good that I can make it there." Wang Xiaohu glared at him, "It's too late to make arrangements. What are you thinking about?"
"You don't need to explain." Chen Taizhong laughed so much that he fell down. "I won't bullshit you, let's be serious. Who do you want to support the scene? Big money or leaders? Or...academia?"
"It's enough to have two people with better temperament and demeanor." Wang Xiaohu's requirements were not high. "We just need to show our enthusiasm and solemnity towards investors."
"I always feel that you are holding back your energy and want to do something. Okay, leave it to me," Chen Taizhong glanced at him, nodded with a smile, and walked away.
Chen Taizhong actually doesn't have many friends in Subo. The one who really has the best temperament and demeanor is Xu Chunliang, well, plus Jing Ziling...
Make a phone call to make an appointment. Xu Chunliang has an appointment in the evening. However, Jing Ziling just passed her thesis defense in the morning and happily agreed, "I was talking about celebrating, why don't you come to Tianda University to pick me up?"
"Take a taxi yourself. I have to go find Meng Qinqin." Although it was a convenient way, it always had to take a small turn, so he was too lazy to waste that time. "Why don't you wait at home? I'll pick you up after I finish my errands."
you."
How could Jing Ziling be so obedient? When Chen Taizhong drove Lincoln through the intersection that turned to Tianda, Jing Ziling stood on the roadside with fluttering white clothes and waved to him, "Brother Taizhong..."
In this case, he could no longer turn a blind eye. He stopped the car and picked the person up, "You have graduated now, right? Is there a receiving unit?"
"No, it will take more than a week for the graduation certificate to come out," Jing Ziling shook her head, "I have 800,000, and I plan to open a Tao Bar with a flower shop first and become my own boss... What do you want from Meng Qinqin?"
"You'll find out later," Chen Taizhong raised his hand and called Meng Qinqin again to inform her that dinner was cancelled. "...Can you come out now and have a cup of coffee?"
"I can't go out now. Don't you know that now is the prime time for graduates to recruit workers? We have a lot of education and science work," Meng Qinqin hesitated, "Then let's do it tomorrow, um... I'm busy, that's all.
"
"It's as if I'm not busy," Chen Taizhong complained bitterly, "If everyone were as busy as me, China would definitely surpass the United States by 2010."
This guy is such a talkative! Meng Qinqin didn't bother to pay attention to him. He took the phone from his ear and pressed the hangup button, but he was thinking in his heart: This guy doesn't know what gift he has prepared for me.
When the call was about to end, a delicate female voice came from the microphone, "Brother Taizhong"... She was stunned when she heard it, and then said stop, but the phone was already hung up.
This bastard is really busy. He pouted thoughtfully.
Putting aside what Meng Qinqin was thinking, Chen Taizhong hung up the phone and felt depressed, "It's really too much. It seems that I won't be able to return to Phoenix today."
"Wouldn't it be over if we let her sit with your district committee secretary?" Jing Ziling looked at him strangely, "Let's get to know each other. What's wrong with that?"
"Some people are not suitable for meeting, and I have something important to do with Meng Qinqin, so it's not convenient to talk to others in front of others." Chen Taizhong glanced at her sideways, thought about it carefully, and thought about finding two more companions in Subo. Really
Not so easy to find anymore.
"This Wang Xiaohu, I haven't seen him for a long time, but he gave me such an inexplicable job as soon as I saw him." It was really hard to find friends on the internet, so Chen Taizhong thought about it and decided to contact Han Zhong.
At this time, he was shocked to discover that, in fact, if everyone was together, it was really unlikely to find a few more people to support him.
Nothing went wrong.
Han Zhong was a little overjoyed when he answered his call. "Have your friend's accommodation been arranged? If not, you can live in my harbor. It's better than Jinjiang there. There are fewer people around."
Fortunately, Wang Xiaohu actually found a place to live in Jinjiang. The front desk was accepting registration when he received a call from the boss and immediately greeted him, "Mr. Wang, our President Han said that we have reserved a room for you in the harbor.
, that’s cleaner than here.”
Although Secretary Wang was refused registration, he really had enough face, but this shocked Wang Xiaohu. Chen Taizhong was doing very well in Subo, right? Does any hotel owner know him?
"No need, just live here," Secretary Wang's authority was still needed. Finally, he spoke to Boss Han, and the two of them argued. Han Zhongshi couldn't resist the district party secretary, "Chengcheng. You will live here."
.Is it done?”
"Well, that's pretty much it." Wang Xiaohu also knew that being able to build such a big hotel landlord in Subo would definitely not be ambiguous, "Old Han, come over and have a drink later."
Listening to his tone, those who didn't know it thought they were close friends. In fact, the two of them had never met each other.
How could Han Zhong see such a small out-of-town regional party secretary? But he had to buy Chen Taizhong’s face, right?
In the end, Chen Taizhong caught Yuan Wang again and helped Wang Xiaohu hold up the situation. Han Zhong was the boss of Jinjiang and Jing Ziling was the granddaughter of Jing Yiyuan. Not only was Yuan Wang an investor in Phoenix, but he also had a wink.
He also speaks with a good Beijing accent and is very good at it.
Wang Xiaohu’s classmate’s name is Zhang Liqin. When she came back this time, she wanted to find an OEM company. She took an order for auto parts. The order was not big, only about 50,000 to 60,000 US dollars. The items to be produced did not have much technical content. Although
There is a patent stuck, but the employer gave her the authorization.
To put it bluntly, the cost of making this part in the United States is too high and it is not cost-effective. There is no problem in moving it to China. The order is not big and the success is long-term. A month of 780,000 yuan a year will be 1.8 million yuan, as long as the products here are qualified.
The samples can be authorized on an annual basis.
Anyway, according to Zhang Liqin, as long as we can produce qualified products, there will be no problem this year. However, it will not be easy for anyone to get authorization next year.
"Then let's do OEM work first." One million US dollars is considered a lot of money, but no one here took it seriously. Han Zhong encouraged Zhang Liqin with a smile, "You have to find some projects. This kind of money is not available in mainland China."
That’s good, but there definitely isn’t enough space in the United States.”
"It's okay," Zhang Liqin said in a soft voice, but she was quite happy. "Wang Xiaohu told me that our costs are low here, and we can make a little profit if we do the math."
Chen Taizhong glanced sideways at Wang Xiaohu and found that Secretary Wang's face was slightly embarrassed. He couldn't help but chuckle to himself. If I let you pretend again, wouldn't it be a secret communication for many days?
"It's true that foreign trade is very profitable," Yuan Wang smiled and nodded, with his Beijing accent, those who didn't know thought he was having a lot of fun, "But Sister Zhang, for this little money, you are here."
Just find someone to watch and sit on the other side of the Pacific Ocean waiting to receive the goods."
Chen Taizhong glanced at Wang Xiaohu again. Secretary Wang finally couldn't bear it anymore and glared at him, "Do you have a disease in your eyes? Why are you always looking at me?"
Anyway, after the meal, it didn't take long. Chen Taizhong still couldn't figure out the relationship between Secretary Wang and Zhang Liqin, but he did know that this accessory seemed to be made by Phoenix Motor Factory.
Of course, he couldn't just ask for work from the table. Not only would that be a loss of face, but to be honest, the factory leaders were not very reliable in their work. If something went wrong, he couldn't afford to lose that person.
This is the so-called reputation. If you have a bad reputation, others will have to think twice if they want to take care of you. Thinking about this, Chen Taizhong actually gained something: Brother, you must pay attention to your sign and don’t smash it yourself!
Another thing that happened at the wine table was also quite strange. Han Zhong actually fawned over Wang Xiaohu and Zhang Liqin. Mr. Chen had seen Boss Han's behavior before, but even Wang Haobo didn't look down on them.
Seeing this, Chen couldn't help but mutter in his heart: Why did this guy change his temper today?
Facts have proved that Han Zhong's hospitality was not in vain. After the dinner, Boss Han pulled Chen Taizhong aside and said, "Taizhong, I remember that you have a good relationship with Bank of China, right?"
"Actually, it's average." Chen Taizhong looked sideways at him and thought to himself, is this guy going to play with loans too? "But if you have anything to do, you can tell me."
