The auction has been going on for more than an hour.
The atmosphere in the banquet hall became heated. Mayor Zhong Zhengwei's words were as high as three million, which made Mayor Zhong also smile. He glanced at Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan and looked at them kindly.
He nodded. His calligraphy came out on top, and it was sold at a sky-high price, even ten times more expensive than the calligraphy and painting master's paintings. This made Mayor Zhong very proud.
Dong Xuebin walked off the stage holding this calligraphy.
When Xie Huilan passed by Zhong Zhengwei, she laughed and said: "Mayor Zhong, can I keep your calligraphy? I will frame it and hang it at home later."
Zhong Zhengwei smiled bitterly, "Why are my words worth so much money?"
Dong Xuebin interjected: "Your handwriting is so good, it's worth every penny."
Zhong Zhengwei pointed at him with a smile, "This is flattering, haha, you can just like it."
"I also like calligraphy." Xie Huilan smiled and said: "I will come to you someday to ask for advice? Can you also give me some guidance?"
Zhong Zhengwei said: "Okay, but we can't talk about guidance. Let's learn from each other."
After a few chats, Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan returned to their seats.
Some relationships are created in this way, and some face is given in this way.
Looking at the two of them, Luo Haiting and many others laughed bitterly. Only Director Dong could do this for three million to buy an ordinary pair of calligraphy.
After sitting back, Dong Xuebin turned his head and whispered: "Being able to establish a relationship with Mayor Zhong will also help you in the future. The money is well spent. You can't donate more than the Municipal Party Committee Secretary. It's all nonsense."
Isn’t it time to pave the way for our work when we come back? What’s more, we have also contributed to the disaster area.” Dong Xuebin has never been afraid of spending money. Unlike those businessmen, Dong Xuebin has no idea about money.
Xie Huilan glanced at him and said, "I'll take care of you later."
"Hey, I helped you and you still want to deal with me?"
"Haha, are you trying to help? You are trying to show off your brilliance!"
"Who asked Seinfeld to argue with my wife because he doesn't know how to appreciate it? You're so shameless!"
"You have such a bad temper, I don't think you can change it in this life!"
"It's not a matter of my temper. If I lose myself, I can't lose my wife."
"Look, your mouth is sweet. Is it covered with honey? Haha, I'll taste it later to see if it's sweet or not."
"Oh, please keep your voice down so that no one can hear you. Where do you want to put your face?"
After that, the last few auction items went through the process, but with Dong Xuebin’s three million, the other items seemed a bit eclipsed. They were only tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands, and the prices were neither low nor high. The merchant
They all value profit and will not increase the price if it exceeds their bottom line. Of course, compared with people like Dong Xuebin who don't take money seriously at all, Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan also became the focus of the audience.
, it would be fine if the three million were paid by a businessman, but now it is paid by a state cadre. Many reporters took pictures of the two of them frequently, and many city cadres who were not familiar with Dong Xuebin also glanced at him.
The charity auction is over.
A total of nearly 10 million donations were raised this time, and the harvest was pretty good.
Wan Fanglai, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, came to the stage to make a final summary. Thank you everyone for your contribution to Fenzhou City, and also promised to use the money for post-disaster reconstruction. Every penny will be spent wisely, and a list will be made public when appropriate.
, publish the specific uses of these funds.
Will disperse.
Everyone got up and left.
Dong Xuebin stepped forward and found the beautiful host.
The host smiled and said: "Director Dong, thank you for your contribution to the disaster area."
Dong Xuebin smiled and said: "I am also a cadre of Fenzhou City, so I should. How can I transfer the money?"
"I'll give you an account." The host took out a card prepared in advance and handed it to him. Others didn't use it yet. It didn't matter if it was tens of thousands. Some cadres paid it before leaving the show, but the one Dong Xuebin took was three.
Millions, and since I couldn’t swipe my card, I naturally had to remit money. “Just call here. This is a special account opened by our municipal government for donations for this earthquake. It’s transparent.”
"Okay, I'll send it tomorrow."
After saying that, Dong Xuebin glanced at Song Fei for the last time and left with Xie Huilan. Luan Xiaoping originally wanted to stay at Dong Xuebin's place in the evening, but the two mayors, Yang Zhaode and Zhong Zhengwei, made an appointment to have dinner at Mayor Zhong's house.
It was Dong Xuebin and his wife who got into the car and went home by themselves.
at the same time.
At the door of the hotel, Song Fei took his eyes back from the taillights of Dong Xuebin's car as he left. He was in a very bad mood. None of today's plans were achieved.
There were many people around looking at Seinfeld with different expressions.
Sein Fei felt uncomfortable being looked at, and thought to himself, "Why are you looking at me?"
"Old Song, are you leaving?" A businessman came out from behind, "I'm not driving today, can you give me a ride?"
Song Fei forced a smile and nodded, "Okay, Lao Zhang, let's go, it's a hotel anyway."
The two got in the car and seemed to have a good personal relationship.
In the car, Boss Zhang looked at him and said, "Old Song, you...sigh..."
Seinfeld looked at him and said, "What's wrong? If you have anything to say, just say it."
Boss Zhang hesitated, "What kind of rivalry did you just have with Dong Xuebin?"
Seinfei shook his head and said: "I knew you had to ask this. Well, I don't mean to compete with him. I just want to do a good job in the next few businesses. Post-disaster reconstruction is exactly when building materials are needed. This is an opportunity. If
With the help of the first and second leaders in Fenzhou City, I can gain a firm foothold here. I have a problem with my business funds in the south and I urgently need the funds here."
Boss Zhang sighed: "I know what you think. The most important thing about your business is to have a way, but... then don't offend Dong Xuebin."
Seinfei asked strangely: "What happened to Dong Xuebin? I know he had outstanding performance during the earthquake, but he has little to do with the Discipline Inspection Commission and my business, right? I thought you had to say that I shouldn't have a conflict with Mayor Xie
But now that my business is here, I can’t take care of that much anymore.”
"You just came here, and you don't understand the situation yet." Boss Zhang smiled bitterly, "We have been in a relationship for so many years, so I will tell you some things about the cadres in the Fenzhou Municipal Government and the people who know Dong Xuebin.
There are definitely more people than people who know Mayor Xie, can you believe it?"
"That's right. He saved so many people during the earthquake. Who doesn't know him?"
"You still don't understand. What I mean is that most cadres in Fenzhou City would rather offend Mayor Xie than Dong Xuebin."
"Why?"
"Dong Xuebin has a bad reputation in Fenzhou City."
"You mean he wants to touch me?"
"I never said that." Boss Zhang said, "I'm just reminding you, and, alas, there is really no need for you to argue with him about calligraphy and painting this time."
Song Fei persisted and said: "I think it is necessary. At least I expressed my attitude to Secretary Wan. I heard that Secretary Wan has opinions about Dong Xuebin?"
"That's also an official matter. Why are you joining in the fun?"
"How could I make money if I didn't join in the fun? I should have added hundreds of thousands more at that time. Then Dong Xuebin probably wouldn't dare to follow. I should have taken the gamble." Seinfeld regretted a little.
Boss Zhang looked at him helplessly, "Do you really not know or are you pretending not to know? Even if you offer 30 million, Dong Xuebin will not hesitate based on what I know about him."
Seinfeld was surprised, "No way? By the way, why is he so rich?"
"It's more than just having money." Boss Zhang explained: "When he first took office, he announced his wealth. Do you know how much it is? One hundred million! It's still cash. No matter how big our business is, it can be hundreds of millions or hundreds of millions.
Can you come up with 100 million in working capital? You can't come up with it, and I can't come up with it, but Dong Xuebin can come up with it. He heard rumors that he won the lottery before, and both the Municipal Party Committee and the Commission for Discipline Inspection have acquiesced in this matter."
"One hundred million?" Seinfeld took a breath, "How dare he, a state cadre, pay so much money."
Boss Zhang advised: "Old Song, it's best not to mess with Dong Xuebin. I know you are thinking that if you can get on the line of the municipal committee secretary, what's the point of offending the leader of the Discipline Inspection Commission? But things are not like that at all, hell.
It’s hard to deal with a kid. This Dong Xuebin is quite evil. He is a landmine in Fenzhou City. Anyone who steps on him is blown up. Now no one is willing to offend him. The city leaders have not said anything. What do you think?
What are you trying to do?"
Song Fei frowned and said, "The city leaders don't dare to offend him? Is he so powerful here?"
"It's not that I don't dare to offend, maybe I'm unwilling to do so. As long as there is no big conflict of interest, who has no problem offending Dong Xuebin? Do you know what his nickname is in our city? 'God of Plague'! I didn't read that.
Did the lower-ranking cadres stay away from him during the charity meeting today? Have you never thought about why? If Dong Xuebin didn't have this ability, how could everyone have this attitude? And did you see that his mother is the mayor's wife?
, and his wife, Mayor Xie, which one is more fuel-efficient?" Boss Zhang lowered his voice and said: "Of course, the most important thing is Dong Xuebin's behavior. He lacks nothing, but a little... bad morality.
I never try to follow a routine when doing things, so I can't guard against it. Well, I'm just reminding you that if you want to listen, just listen. If you don't want to, forget it."
"Xing Lao Zhang, I've written it down."
"That's fine."
Song Fei said a few perfunctory words, but in fact he was still a little dissatisfied. He likes to gamble and is very radical when doing things. He will not let go if he sees a path. Dong Xuebin and Xie Huilan, one is from the Discipline Inspection Commission, and the other is the deputy mayor for discipline, culture and health.
, it has nothing to do with his business. If it can bring his business to a higher level, if he can gain a relationship with the municipal committee secretary, Seinfeld will not be afraid of offending anyone.
As long as you can make money.
Can Dong Xuebin tear up my contract? Can he also dismantle my company?
But Seinfei never knew that Dong Xuebin could really do such an immoral thing!
