Shi Zhong was dragged for no reason, but he did not resist. He also guessed that some important person was being welcomed here. He barged in for no reason and didn't ruin other people's good things. So, he stood in a row obediently.
Li Xianda glanced at the stone clock gratefully, and immediately looked at the door eagerly.
After a while, two cars came in one after another and parked. Two middle-aged men got out of the car. They were in suits and leather shoes. They were not afraid of the cold. One of them had a Chinese character, his hair was combed meticulously, and he had a reserved smile on his face. He looked so...
A little dignity.
The other person had a bright smile on his face, but Shi Zhong had a vague impression of him, but he couldn't remember where he had seen this person.
Li Xianda hurriedly went up to say hello and exchange some pleasantries. However, although everyone was very enthusiastic, the middle-aged man with the Chinese character face still smiled lightly and was extremely reserved. It seemed that only this way could bring out his majesty.
It was another middle-aged man. Shi Zhong finally remembered who he was. When he heard Li Xianda call him Mayor Xu, Shi Zhong suddenly realized that he was not the one who bought the Shangrao City Water Supply Company to receive him and Andrew last time.
Deputy mayor?
However, Shi Zhong didn't have any friendship with him, and they might not remember him as a small person, so he didn't go over to say hello. He planned to wait for them to walk away and find a restaurant to eat, which was the main business.
"Huh? Are you...Mr. Shi?" Xu Dongqiang has a good memory. Seeing Shi Zhong look familiar, he hesitated to call out Shi Zhong's name. It's no wonder that when he transferred 51% of the shares of the water company,
, Naturally, we need to study Shi Zhong carefully. After all, the government holds 49% of the shares, and Andrew holds 47%. Then the 4% held by Shi Zhong is very critical. An industry related to people's livelihood is still
It's better to be cautious.
"Haha, Mayor Xu has such a good memory, I didn't expect to remember me!" Seeing that Shi Zhong was recognized, he naturally couldn't pretend and shook hands with Xu Dongqiang. Li Xianda, director of the Beijing Office, looked at Shi Zhong in surprise.
Zhong, this young man is indeed no ordinary person. Mayor Xu actually knows him too.
"You are a big entrepreneur in Shangrao, and you have created tax revenue for Shangrao. Naturally, I have to remember our parents!" Xu Dongqiang spoke very humorously, and immediately asked, "Mr. Shi, what do you want to do when you come to the Beijing Office?"
Bar?"
This is really okay! Shi Zhong murmured to himself. He smiled and said: "I thought this was a restaurant, so I walked in. I didn't expect that they were welcoming you, a big leader, but they bumped into you!"
"I am not a leader. I am only a minor official in Beijing. Come and introduce to you, Director Zhang. This is our entrepreneur from Shangrao City, Mr. Shi. Director Zhang is the Ministry of Finance."
The leader of the weight department. Director Zhang is the big leader!" Xu Dongqiang said with a smile.
"Hello, nice to meet you!" Shi Zhong smiled.
"Well!" Director Zhang nodded reservedly, with a bit of impatience on his face. He looked at his watch, raised his head and said to Xu Dongqiang, "Mayor Xu, let's do this. Tomorrow you will submit your project application, calculation, and province
Send the approval and other relevant documents to my office, and I will study them. Okay?" His tone was completely businesslike.
Li Xianda was secretly worried. He just invited this god to his doorstep, why did he have to go back? The officials in Beijing are really big names. I haven't taken care of you for just a few words, and I can't stand it anymore. You are a deputy director.
Mayor Xu is also the deputy director. Of course, such thoughts are running through his head.
"Director Zhang, you're already here, why don't you have dinner before leaving?" Xu Dongqiang was a little sulky. He was the mayor after all, and Director Zhang was looking down on Li Xianda in front of his subordinates who were waiting for him.
Director Zhang seemed to have seen nothing, and looked at his watch again: "Why don't you eat? It's really urgent. If the project you mentioned is feasible, I will submit it, but will it pass?
It’s not me who has the final say!”
Xu Dongqiang nodded silently, still smiling: "Then I'll trouble Director Zhang!" In fact, he knew that he was probably going to return empty-handed from his trip to Beijing.
After Director Zhang left, Shi Zhong said a little embarrassedly: "Mayor Xu, I'm so sorry, I didn't expect to disturb you!"
Xu Dongqiang was open-minded and waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's not your problem, let's go in and eat!"
Li Xianda sighed. This time Mayor Xu would probably be on the bench when he returned, and the work he was in charge of would also have to be adjusted. Li Xianda felt like he was the same person in the world. He was assigned to Beijing, although the Beijing Office
There is plenty of money and money, but the distance from the political center is getting further and further away. Who knows when he will be transferred back to a casual position?
Just as Shi Zhong was saying that he was going out to dinner, his cell phone rang. The landline number in Beijing answered: "Hello!"
"Hey, Shi Zhong, I'm Chu Liang!" Chu Liang's voice was always so calm except last night.
"Brother Chu!" Shi Zhong called, but said nothing, waiting for Chu Liang's next words.
Chu Liang said "hmm" and then said, "My grandpa wants to meet you!"
After hanging up the phone, Shi Zhong said to Xu Dongqiang: "Mayor Xu, I'm so sorry. I have an elder inviting you to dinner. I can't refuse. Next time, next time I'll treat you to dinner!"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Xu Dongqiang was not like those officials who would have a gloomy face after being rejected.
Xu Dongqiang was just chatting with Shi Zhong outside, which made Shi Zhong feel very sorry and thought to himself, this is actually a very gentle official.
About twenty minutes later, an Audi car drove in, and a man in his thirties got out of the passenger seat. He had gold-rimmed glasses and was polite. He glanced around habitually and fixed his gaze on Shi Zhong.
He came over and stretched out his hand: "You must be Mr. Shi. I am Secretary Chu's secretary, Guo Qiangjiang. Just call me Qiangjiang. I am here to pick you up!"
"Secretary Guo, please!" Shi Zhong stretched out his hand and shook it warmly. Guo Qiangjiang smiled. He didn't know about the Chu family, but when Secretary Chu solemnly ordered him to come and pick up this young man, he knew that this young man's
His position is not simple, so he naturally won’t put on the airs of being a secretary. He said with a smile, “Where!”
Shi Zhong said hello to Xu Dongqiang and got into the back seat.
When the car drove out, Li Xianda still couldn't recover from the shock. He turned to Xu Dongqiang with a flushed face: "Mayor Xu...that car...that car..." He stammered and couldn't say anything.
Complete words.
"What kind of car doesn't have a car?" Xu Dongqiang frowned.
Li Xianda smiled coquettishly and said: "Mayor Xu, the license plate of that car is from the Ministry of Finance, and it seems to be the car of the former Minister Chu!" Chu Decai became the Secretary of the Guangdong Provincial Committee.
He was in charge of the Ministry of Finance before, and the appointment was made not long ago. Chu Decai never handed over the car. Li Xianda was stationed in Beijing and studied these things all day long, so he recognized it at a glance.
"What?" Xu Dongqiang was shocked, unable to hide his surprise, his eyes flickered, not knowing what he was thinking.
Looking south to the vast blue sea, at the southern foot of Dongshan Mountain in Beidaihe, among the green pines and cypresses, you can faintly see a group of villas with red bricks and blue tiles. From the outside, they don’t look very eye-catching, but when you climb the path to the south peak, tourists will be attacked by armed police with live ammunition.
Stop it, which makes people vaguely aware of the meaning of the mysterious villa group. This villa group is where the central government's summer office is located.
Unlike the villa groups of other ministries and commissions, which occasionally select local handsome men and beauties as service staff, the villa group adjacent to No. 5 is managed by the Central Military Commission. Everyone in the villa, from the waiters to the life secretaries, are soldiers, and they all wear sky blue uniforms.
, when the heroic female orderly brought the tea cup to Shi Zhong, Shi Zhong felt a strong sense of unreality. He had stepped into this mysterious and red villa complex in front of the world?
After a while, an old man came out and pushed away Chu Liang's support. Shi Zhong noticed that there was a trace of stubbornness in the old man's eyes, as if he wanted to prove that he could do it, but he was a little childish. Thinking like this, Shi Zhong felt much more relaxed.
Well, only I can evaluate this former Deputy Chairman of the Military Commission as childish!
Mr. Chu, Chu Liang's grandfather, is not very famous among the many generals who founded the country. His reputation was established in many battles after the founding of the country, such as resisting the United States, aiding Korea, the Vietnam War, etc. His qualifications are high
There is no one who is superior to him in the army. Although he has retired, his influence in the army and even in the political hall cannot be underestimated.
The old man was not tall, but he had a certain dignity. He sat down next to Shi Zhong and felt an aura coming over him. Shi Zhong thought to himself, is this the legendary aura?
Shi Zhong had already stood up and called out "Mr. Chu". Mr. Chu pressed his hands with a smile and said: "Sit down, sit down, you are my savior. It is inappropriate for you, my savior, to salute me."
Behave!"
Shi Zhong sat down and said: "A little excited!"
"Haha, the little guy is sincere!" Mr. Chu said with a smile. As expected of his military background, he spoke very loudly, but thanks to Shi Zhong's life essence, although he still looked a little sick, his body was no longer serious.
Already.
Chu Liang stood quietly next to Mr. Chu, a filial son and grandson. Shi Zhong looked a little funny. It was rare to see such an expression on Chu Liang's face, and he was really blessed.
Mr. Chu did not ask Shi Zhong about his medical skills, but simply asked about Shi Zhong's life, which made Shi Zhong feel much closer.
Without saying a few words, Mr. Chu stood up and said, "Let's go eat. Don't make you hungry. Come on, come with me!"
Shi Zhong smiled and trotted to Mr. Chu's side. Looking at this old man, he sighed in his heart. Once upon a time, he was all-powerful and strategizing, but he could not escape the erosion of time. All he could do was to exert his vitality to the fullest.
to the greatest extent.
There were just three people eating at the same dining table. Mr. Chu didn't ask anyone else to accompany him. Thinking about Shi Zhong's feelings, Shi Zhong breathed a sigh of relief. The meal was quite relaxing.
