Chapter 171: World Friendship
"Are you still used to the climate of Shanghai?" Aunt Ding asked with some concern at Fan Wubing.
"It's okay." Fan Wubing picked up the orange juice bottle, turned around twice and replied, "I have a company here, so it's very convenient to eat and stay. Some people also use it, but I don't think there is anything wrong."
"Which company is it?" Aunt Ding asked curiously. She had heard of some things about Fan Wubing, but she was not very clear about the specific details. Moreover, when Zhang Mei mentioned her son Fan Wubing, she just mentioned it slightly. It was impossible to praise others without any hesitation?
Or others can, but Zhang Mei would certainly not do this if she respected her identity.
"A small company with no fame, an entertainment industry." Fan Wubing told Aunt Ding the company's name.
"New Silk Road Entertainment Company?" Aunt Ding repeated to herself after hearing this, and then said apologetically, "It is normal for me not to be interested in this, or if your uncle can know it."
Fan Wubing understood that the uncle Aunt Ding mentioned should be her husband, but she didn't know what the uncle had. Judging from the appearance of the house, she should be a capable person on the scene. So Fan Wubing asked, "I don't know the uncle's name. What kind of job does he do?"
"Hey, people cannot compare with others. Your uncle is called Tong Yushan. He is also a businessman. He used to be a teacher in our school. Later, he insisted on starting his own business and went into business and made some money. Later, for some reason, he was related to the leaders of the city. Now he is in politics again and is a deputy in the district, mainly focusing on high-tech and cultural industries." Although Aunt Ding said so modestly, it can be seen from her expression that she is quite satisfied with her husband.
The deputy district mayor in Shanghai should also be a deputy department-level cadre. What she said is that people cannot be compared with others means that Fan Heng and Tong Yushan are about the same age, but the level is too different. Fan Heng is already at the ministerial level and is on the same level as the main leaders of Shanghai.
However, this statement is not very accurate. Due to the particularity of regional and political economy, the secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee often serves as a member of the Standing Committee of the Politburo. The Standing Committee of the Politburo, like the President of the State, the Chairman of the Central Military Commission, the Premier of the State Council, the Chairman of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, the Chairman of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, are all at the national level, but they are much higher than the Ministerial level. Even if they are just members of the Politburo, they are still at the vice-national level.
Therefore, cadres are willing to go to big cities to become the main leaders, and for nothing else, the administrative level is promoted quickly! Although many national leaders have come from the position of provincial party secretaries of each province, basically there is a prerequisite, that is, before becoming a local official, they often have a resume working in Beijing, and the officials in the border area are just to experience it and establish some indispensable life experiences.
When Fan Wubing thought of this, he couldn't help but feel moved. His father Fan Heng was from a state-owned enterprise to a central government, and then to a local position. His level was also mentioned at the ministerial level. Or, after Panshi's economic status officially rose, there was no chance to go further. After all, he was only fifty years old now, and ten years should be enough to make him go further, right?
As long as you have great achievements and no obvious mistakes are made, this step should be taken no matter what. If life can reach this point, it will be almost done. There should be no other requirements besides dedication.
Especially with the economic strength of Fan Wubing's son as support, Fan Heng did not need anyone to bribe him. What he had to consider was to develop the economy and build a metropolis far beyond ordinary prefecture-level cities. This was his ultimate goal.
The two of them talked for a while, and Tong Yushan happened to be back. After seeing Fan Wubing, they also looked intimate.
Seeing that Tong Yushan was more enthusiastic about him than Aunt Ding, Fan Wubing couldn't help but feel a little surprised. He didn't know whether Uncle Tong really had a good impression of himself when he was a child, or whether he had a good impression of Fan Heng, who had become a ministerial-level father. Although he wanted to check the clues from Tong Yushan's expression, it was undeniable that being the deputy district mayor in Shanghai was basically considered a spoiler, and he really couldn't tell the reason.
"I heard that Panshi is preparing to build a super big airport?" Tong Yushan is indeed a political person. After asking about his well-being, he suddenly mentioned the thing he cares about the most.
Tong Yushan's administrative level is not low anymore, and he can access some important information. In addition, Shanghai has always been led by leaders at the official or vice-national level, so the information channels are naturally unobstructed. The fact that Panshi wants to build a large airport has spread here for a long time, so he naturally cannot not know about this.
However, Tong Yushan felt that as an ordinary small city in the mainland, there was no need to ask for perfection. If it was built and found to be of no use, it would be a huge blow to Fan Heng's political career.
"There is such a thing. Vice Premier Li Jidong personally inquired about it. Now it has entered the design and construction will be started soon." Fan Wubing briefly talked about the matter at Panshi Airport.
"It's a lot of risk!" Tong Yushan said with some concern.
The risks he mentioned are not only risks in construction, but also the operating risks to face after successful construction. You should know that there are many small and medium-sized airports in China now, and life is not easy. To build such a large-scale super airport in Panshi, it sounds like you have to face greater risks.
In fact, the political achievement project is easy to do. Building a square or a park is simple and easy to do, easy to succeed, and there is no risk. Even if you really want to do something practical for the people, then it is good to build a road. Why do you have to build an airport? In China, building an airport now is simply destroying the Great Wall.
However, Tong Yushan is not good at saying anything. Since Fan Heng was able to reach the ministerial level in such a short time, it means that the background behind him is not very simple. Such a simple thing will not be difficult to see through, or his own ideas are a bit narrow, right?
"Only high risks can there be high returns." Fan Wubing smiled and said to Tong Yushan.
Aunt Ding, who was next to her, laughed after hearing the words of the two of them, "Men are born to like to study these things, and I have no interest. They are sick and stay for dinner at night. I heard your mother say that the ribs you made are first-class, and we have a good taste today."
Fan Wubing knew that Aunt Ding said this was just to force herself to keep her, but he really had nothing to do, so he agreed immediately, "My mother likes to praise her son randomly, that's just ordinary."
"I heard that you were alone in the United States for six years?" Tong Yushan heard his wife talk about this, but when he thought about how old Fan Wubing is now? That is, he looked like he was sixteen or seventeen. Wouldn't he say that he left his parents and went to live alone in the United States when he was ten years old? This incident made Tong Yushan very surprised and suspected that this was a rumor. How could it be possible?
Fan Wubing nodded, "I have been there for six years, but it's not difficult to get along with friends there."
"Oh, that's very rare." Tong Yushan thought that the friend Fan Wubing was talking about was Fan Heng and Zhang Mei and the others, and thought that this was reasonable. Otherwise, how could a ten-year-old child stay in the United States for six years? But he didn't know that the so-called friend was just a group of Fan Wubing's subordinates.
However, Tong Yushan is still optimistic about Fan Heng's youngest son. At the beginning, Fan Wubing was different from other children. Now it seems that it is really different. After talking to Fan Wubing for a while, Tong Yushan felt that Fan Wubing's thinking patterns and knowledge level were at the top of the pyramid, and he was indeed a genius!
"Fan Heng has such a son, so he can comfort his whole life." Tong Yushan couldn't help but feel a little jealous. Unfortunately, he only has one daughter and causes trouble for himself all day long. It's a headache to think about it. It would be great if he could change it.
But this kind of thing is just to think about it. Tong Yushan and Fan Wubing were chatting. Aunt Ding had already prepared the food. What she said before was that Fan Wubing cooked was of course just a joke.
Fan Wubing paid attention and found that there was a little nanny at home, but he hadn't seen it before.
"Why haven't Xiaoyun come back yet?" Tong Yushan asked.
"I just called back and said I would stay at my classmate's house tonight and I won't come back." Aunt Ding replied.
Xiaoyun is their only daughter. She is in her junior year and is in Fudan. She has good homework, but her personality is also very quirky. She is a daughter who makes her parents’ headaches.
"Live in classmate's house again?" Tong Yushan was a little unhappy when he heard this, but it was hard to say anything else to the guests.
