The distance from Ye Menghu to Chen Jing's residence is very short.
Chen Jing didn't even take a call when he came out of there, so he walked alone on the street, preparing to take a walk home.
He grew up in Chucheng and has a special affection for this city. Unfortunately, Chucheng is now a bit strange in his eyes.
The streets of the city have changed greatly. The places where children used to play that they loved most when they were young have all disappeared. On that land, there are now many high-rise buildings and flashing neon lights, and they no longer look like they did when they were children.
According to data from the City Planning Bureau, the size of Chucheng has doubled in the past ten years. The current size of Chucheng has expanded nearly five times compared to 20 years ago. How can Chen Jing be in this noisy and bustling city?
, find childhood memories?
In recent years, the slogan of urbanization has been loudly shouted across the country. Local governments have never tired of city building and city building movements. The old buildings in the city have been pushed and rebuilt, and all the inherent traces of the city have been erased, and they have all moved closer to the direction of the metropolis.
Such a city-building idea will create a city that has no personality or characteristics. Instead, the inherent traditions and culture of the city will suffer a severe impact during the movement, and the city that will be built in the end will look different.
In Chen Jing's eyes, Chucheng is a bit different now.
The only place where Chen Jing felt a vague shadow of the past was Chuhe.
Chuhe has remained the same for thousands of years. He seems to be a calm bystander, always watching indifferently as the city's controllers wantonly destroy the inherent civilization of Chucheng.
After taking a deep breath of cigarette, Chen Jing suddenly became depressed.
Zheng Yuankun's words came to mind again.
Zheng Yuankun is undoubtedly an extreme person. His behavior and actions are too idealistic. He is an idealist who is deeply influenced by Western ideas and dissatisfied with the real society.
But this does not prevent him from pointedly pointing out the current Jingjiang issue.
What is there in Jingjiang now?
The industry that Jingjiang was once proud of has now become a big burden for the government. Jingjiang's agriculture has long been unable to increase production, and the income of rural people has been hovering at a low level for a long time. The tertiary industry has become the worst problem in Jingjiang's cities.
Image endorsement.
Public security in Jingjiang is poor. Pornography, gambling and drugs are rampant. Nightclubs and entertainment cities have flourished a lot in recent years. Many people from Chucheng like to go to Jingjiang to have fun.
All this is because Jingjiang has loose control in this regard, and the local government even acquiesces in the existence of pornography, gambling and drugs, for the sake of the so-called overall economic situation.
In Zheng Yuankun's opinion, Jing Jiang is useless. If you take a closer look at his words, it turns out they are not unreasonable.
As the newly appointed secretary of Jingjiang, Chen Jing feels even more pressure.
Chen Jing has worked in Lingnan for many years. Lingnan is more concerned with industrial transformation and upgrading, integrating with international standards, developing high-tech industries, and establishing regional core competitiveness.
And now that he has returned to Chujiang, it feels like he has returned to BC.
Jingjiang has not even solved the problem of state-owned enterprises, employment problems, urban residents' living problems, to put it bluntly, it can even be said that urban residents' food and clothing are problems. The entire society is in a mess, with grassroots evil forces rampant, business operations and
The production environment cannot be fair and just.
The legal system and system of the Republic are many years ahead of the current situation in Jingjiang. There are systems and legal systems, but in this land, those things are just a piece of paper. Not to mention that the awareness of the common people has not reached that level, and even the awareness of party members and cadres has not reached that level.
Very far.
Such a huge contrast made it difficult for Chen Jing to adapt.
Chen Jing is also from Chujiang. Like all young people who came out of Chujiang, Chen Jing also had a dream of benefiting his hometown. Once he came to power, he would build his hometown.
But now that he really had such an opportunity, he didn't feel the slightest joy, only a heavy heart.
Chen Jing thought as he walked until he reached the door of his community.
As he was about to enter the gate, he suddenly heard a woman's sharp voice: "Robbery! Someone is snatching the bag!"
Chen Jing was stunned for a moment, and then he saw a man riding a motorcycle, wearing a black helmet and carrying a small lady's bag in one hand, speeding towards him.
Behind the car, a middle-aged woman in her forties was chasing after her desperately, shouting while chasing!
Chen Jing was startled and subconsciously raised his hand to throw the trash can at the entrance of the community on the ground, preparing to block the motorcycle's path.
The man driving the car was very alert. He skidded around and prepared to continue moving forward.
"Catch that person!" Chen Jing shouted loudly.
When he drank, many people around him reacted, and several young guys took advantage of the motorcycle's slowdown to get closer.
When the man on the motorcycle saw that there were too many people disturbed, he quickly threw away his bag and turned the car in the opposite direction to escape.
I saw his car accelerating and tried to get away.
At this moment, a silver-gray BMW suddenly drove over from the fork in the road and blocked the motorcycle.
The man on the motorcycle did not expect such an accident, and it was too late for him to slow down.
"Bang!" There was a sound, and the two cars collided, and the man on the motorcycle was thrown far away.
Several young men who came from behind rushed over and pinned the guy to the ground.
This dazzling change sounds very complicated, but it actually happens between the sparks of calcium carbide.
The man who was snatching the car at speed was subdued, and people around him gathered around to watch the peep show.
Chen Jing came closer and saw the middle-aged woman just now thanking the young men with runny nose and tears, speaking in the local dialect of Chucheng.
Several young men were a little embarrassed. They happened to see Chen Jing coming. One of them quickly pointed at Chen Jing and said: "Sister, this is the best brother. If he hadn't been quick-sighted and blocked this kid, we still wouldn't be able to catch him today!"
The middle-aged elder sister came to Chen Jing again and said: "Brother, thank you so much, otherwise I wouldn't be able to explain it when I go back today. I just went to the bank to get money and rushed to the hospital to pay for my mother-in-law's surgery, and something like this happened..."
Chen Jing nodded and was about to speak when he was suddenly startled.
Because he saw the door of the BMW in front of him opened, and the person getting out of the driver's seat turned out to be an acquaintance.
The woman who got off the car was wearing a long black trench coat, crystal high heels, and long hair shawl. She was elegant and graceful.
"Bang!" She closed the door with a sound.
When she looked up, she was already the focus of everyone's attention.
The few young men who acted bravely just now, except for the two guys who controlled the speeding gang, the rest were stunned.
She is beautiful in cars and cars, and she is also brave enough to do justice. This attraction to young males is fatal.
The middle-aged elder sister who had been busy thanking everyone just now became confused and didn’t know what to say!
He was a BMW, but he did not hesitate to stand in front of the speeding party at the critical moment. The collision caused at least tens of thousands of losses.
What could she say to someone? Pay for someone else's car? She couldn't afford it!
Chen Jing pursed his lips and smiled softly. He knew the woman, Shen Menglan from Wanhai Group.
Meeting Shen Menglan here seems to be too much of a coincidence, but Chen Jing will naturally not be associated with the speeding gang. Shen Menglan seems to have some courage.
At this moment, the police officer in charge of this area arrived. He took over the gangster and gave several young men a commendation.
Then he brought the middle-aged elder sister to take notes, when Chen Jing was about to slowly retreat.
However, Shen Menglan squeezed through the crowd and walked quickly towards him, saying: "Chen...Chen...Jing, do you still know me?"
Chen Jing stood still, smiled faintly, and said: "Of course I know Mr. Shen, you are a good citizen who acts bravely for justice!"
"Thank you for the compliment! The same goes for you!" Shen Menglan said. She smiled brightly, like a peony blooming in the wind, so charming that the young men who were surrounding him just now almost fainted.
And Chen Jing also clearly felt that there were a lot of eyes on him.
Being able to strike up a conversation with a beautiful woman in such a public place really arouses envy, jealousy, and even hatred.
"Chen... Director Chen, I left my car here. The tow truck will come later. I have nothing to do. I would like to buy you a cup of coffee. I wonder if you are willing to do it!" Shen Menglan said, her eyes moving. A pair of seductive eyes roamed over Chen Jing's face.
"Now?" Chen Jing frowned slightly.
Shen Menglan pointed to the violet in front of her and said, "It's right there. Don't worry, it won't take up too much of your time!"
Chen Jing pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "Let's go! Please drink coffee with the beautiful lady. It's so unkind to refuse!"
Violet Cafe is very simple and low-grade.
It's said to be a cafe, but it's actually a hodgepodge inside, offering not only coffee, but also refreshments and even meals.
Fortunately, such a place was deserted and quiet. Shen Menglan asked for a private room, which happened to be in the corner, so no one would disturb her at all.
Chen Jing ordered a cup of tea, and Shen Menglan ordered a cup of Americano coffee, and the two sat opposite each other.
"Director Chen, oh, no, I should call you Secretary Chen now. Do you live in this community?" Shen Menglan said softly.
Chen Jing smiled and said: "I'm just walking around casually. I haven't been back to Chucheng for a long time and I want to walk around more!"
Shen Menglan bit her lip and said, "What a coincidence. Today you traveled incognito and we bumped into each other. I really feel honored!"
Chen Jing waved his hand and said: "Don't say it's an honor. I met a beautiful woman when I went out. It's an honor for me to be honored! What? Don't you feel bad if the car crashes? What you did just now is very dangerous. If the other person's speed is faster, it may cause The other party is seriously injured, if so, you will be in big trouble!"
Shen Menglan raised her eyebrows and said: "That man is a robber. He was seriously injured because he fled in fear of crime. If it were a policeman, he could even be shot dead with a gun."
Chen Jing smiled faintly, said nothing, picked up the tea and took a sip.
A question came to his mind, was it really a coincidence that he met Shen Menglan today?
I didn't meet anyone else at my door. How could I meet Shen Menglan, the chairman of Wanhai Group, whom I have been studying recently? (To be continued.
