"Master Feng, you are a very busy person now. It is really difficult to see you, and it is even more difficult to have a good chat with you alone. I have no choice but to do this. I hope you don't mind."
Duan Yunpeng chuckled and sat down opposite Feng Sizhe.
"Young Master Duan is so polite. If you have anything to do, you can come to me anytime, even if you go to Jiaoliao. I will sweep up the bed to welcome you." Feng Sizhe also said with a smile.
"Haha, I'm so happy to hear these words from Mr. Feng. Come on, for your trust and support in me, I'll toast you with tea and wine." Duan Yunpeng laughed and raised his tea cup.
The two drank it all in one gulp, as if the tea was like aged wine.
Since they are old friends, sitting here, it is impossible not to mention the past. Unknowingly, the two of them recalled what happened more than twenty years ago.
"Master Feng, at that time, we were all young, in our early twenties. The so-called young master was only appropriate at that time. But now we are all in our forties and will soon reach fifty.
It feels a little awkward to be a young master at this time." Duan Yunpeng said with a long sigh.
"Yes, there are more than ten or twenty years in life? This time really seems to fly in the blink of an eye, and it goes by so fast. But from my point of view, a title is just a title. You can call it whatever you want. I
It seems that you should stick to your old habits and don't change them." Feng Sizhe also nodded heavily, seeming to have recalled a lot of things.
The two of them were sitting here, just like two old friends, reminiscing about various past events and talking about some happy things. They both laughed heartily. There was no trace of the behavior of a provincial secretary and a big company boss.
Look.
The speaker finally got to the point. Seeing that Feng Sizhe was in a good mood, Duan Yunpeng finally felt that the opportunity was ripe, so he changed his tone and said, "Young Master Feng, when we first met, you and I were both passionate.
Young man, I am full of longing for the business world, and you also have great hopes for an official career, but now are we considered successful?"
"This shouldn't be counted. After all, we can still go a long way." Feng Sizhe hesitated and said.
"Okay, you can go even longer if you are good. Mr. Feng, I would like to ask, do you have any more ambitious ideas and want to go further on this road? If so, then
I really want to help you." Duan Yunpeng clapped his hands and said with a very heroic look.
When he heard that Duan Yunpeng wanted to help him, Feng Sizhe just laughed and said, "I would like to hear more details."
Knowing that it was time to get to the point, Duan Yunpeng just stared, and then said slowly and seriously, "Master Feng, with your current achievements, you have basically reached the top of your official career. As you move up, you will become a member of the zz bureau."
There are so many provincial and ministerial-level cadres across the country, but only very few can truly enter this inner circle. No one dares to say that they will definitely be able to enter this inner circle before things are decided, right?"
"That's right." Feng Sizhe nodded. Although this time the Z Organization Department recommended him to be on the list of twelve candidate committee members, he did know that he might not be able to get into it. After all, those other than him
Eleven people, no one can save fuel.
"Master Feng is still very sober. Because of this, I am here today to give you a great blessing. As long as you nod your head and agree, I can guarantee that you will become an alternate committee member without any doubt this time, and then you will not be able to use it anymore."
How long will it take, and you will become a real member of it." When Duan Yunpeng said this, he was very confident, as if he could make this decision on behalf of the central government.
Seeing how confident Duan Yunpeng was, Feng Sizhe couldn't help but asked curiously, "Oh, I don't know what you want me to promise."
"Haha, it's not complicated to say. You only need to promise one thing, that is, you will assist the Hou family in the future, and make your efforts and contributions when Hou Weidong ascends to the throne. Then you will soon get what you want.
Everything, become a member of the zz bureau, become a real leader." Duan Yunpeng seemed a little excited when he said these words, as if this time he was here to give benefits to Feng Sizhe, just to help others.
of general.
When he heard the Hou family's name, Feng Sizhe was stunned for a moment. He really didn't expect that when Duan Yunpeng saw him today, he was here to act as a lobbyist, trying to persuade him to submit to others.
Not to mention that the current threat to Feng Sizhe is not as great as before, given his character, how could he be willing to fight on the side of Hou Weidong? If this person is more capable than himself, then Young Master Feng
He is not a person who refuses to admit defeat, but the fact is that the young master's ability at this time is really hard to be praised.
Let’s just say that when I was the governor of Sanxiang Province, I brought the economy there to a complete mess. Now I went to Nanxi Province and learned how to crack down on organized crime on my own. From what I heard, the environment there is also very bad now, because of the situation in the two places.
Completely different, and in order to achieve results, Hou Weidong insisted on labeling some gangsters as gangsters, and even some innocent people were affected and were said to be members of a certain organization. This
Public dissatisfaction there is boiling, and many letters of complaint have been sent to the central government. I'm afraid it won't be long before the higher-ups will come to ask Wei Dong about this matter.
The bad situation in Nanxi Province also resulted in Wei Dong not being nominated as an alternate this time. Under such a situation, Duan Yunpeng actually asked himself to assist such a person. I really don't know what he was thinking.
But even though this was the case, Feng Sizhe did not get angry immediately. Instead, he asked Duan Yunpeng, "Young Master Duan, I wonder if your words can represent the Hou family?"
Duan Yunpeng didn't know that Feng Sizhe was angry now. He thought he was asking for detailed information because he didn't trust him. He immediately explained, "Of course I can represent him. I won't hide it from Mr. Feng. Not long ago,
, Secretary Hou Zhennan came to see me personally and gave me a guarantee."
"Oh, Secretary Hou came to see you personally?" Feng Sizhe raised his eyebrows when he heard this. It was obvious that he had thought of a lot of things.
"Yes, he came to me personally." Duan Yunpeng said proudly.
"Then he still promised you that as long as Hou Wei Dongyi takes over, he will definitely give you endless benefits." Feng Sizhe asked again. He could see now that Duan Yunpeng was not looking for him to reminisce about the past.
He came as a lobbyist, but this lobbyist was really unqualified for his job. He didn't understand the situation clearly and made random assertions.
"Haha." Duan Yunpeng smiled awkwardly, "To be honest with Mr. Feng, this is natural. You also know that I am a businessman, and I can't afford to be early if I don't make any profit. I have to pay for my efforts. After all, this time I
But I really do it for your own good."
"For my own good?" Feng Sizhe's voice had changed into a sneer.
"That's right, just for your own good, Hou Weidong's identity as the successor was decided a long time ago. Although some of the things he has done recently are not very beautiful, after all, the background of the Hou family is there.
Moreover, the decision of the superiors cannot be changed by simply changing it. As long as Hou Weidong doesn't make any big mistakes, it will be a matter of time. And under such circumstances, if you join him, you must be regarded as a confidant by him.
It can be said to be an excellent time, Mr. Feng, you must think it over carefully."
"For my own good? For my own good?" Feng Sizhe asked twice quickly, and then his expression suddenly became serious, "Mr. Duan, I don't know what they said to you, but I want to remind you.
Yes, I am not optimistic about Hou Weidong's ability. Although, as you said, the upper management had made a decision before, it was just a temporary decision and could not be counted. Also, you said that the Hou family has a deep background.
Ten years ago, I would have admitted it, but now, hum! At least it is no longer in my eyes."
"What? How can you say that? Don't you agree with what I said?" Duan Yunpeng suddenly felt extremely bad when he saw that Feng Sizhe had changed his name.
"Of course I don't agree. Mr. Duan, for the sake of our acquaintance, let me remind you to stay away from the Hou family. This way at least you will have a chance to get back together. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't even think about it."
Even if you try hard, you won't be able to do it anymore." Feng Sizhe reminded kindly.
As Duan Yunpeng said, the Hou family used to be very powerful and could even influence the top management to make some decisions. But because of this, he did not know how many people were jealous and offended. In the past, the Hou family was very powerful.
Big, these people dare not say or do anything even if they have ideas, but it is different now. After Mr. Hou passed away, the status of the Hou family has become very unstable. Now Hou Zhennan is about to retire. So,
In the zz Bureau, the Hou family's voice will be reduced to the lowest point in decades. At this time, will someone take the opportunity to attack them?
From Feng Sizhe's own point of view, it is very likely that someone will do this. After all, these days, there are not many people who get into trouble. After all, there are only so many positions in total, and one less person in the waiting department means that others have more opportunities.
, if you were afraid that you might be tempted by something like this?
Under the current situation, Duan Yunpeng still wanted to get into the Hou family's car. I really don't know what he was thinking. Out of the friendship over the years, Feng Sizhe finally decided to kindly remind him.
Feng Sizhe refused. This was something Duan Yunpeng had not thought of before. In his view, this was simply an opportunity. With the help of the Hou family, there would no longer be any problem for Young Master Feng to become an alternate committee member. After a while, in
It is completely logical to become an official member of the zz Bureau and successfully be promoted to the head of a country.
