1873 Entertainment 1874 Epiphany

.

I have to say that Catherine is a very smart woman. Chen Taizhong just briefly introduced Liu Sai's identity, and her eyes lit up, "Director of the Labor Department of Bikong Province?"

Intentionally or unintentionally, she bit the word "Bikong Province" a little loudly.

"Former deputy director." Liu Liao answered her with a smile, deliberately emphasizing the word "former". But obviously, he is no longer ashamed of this word. Of course, his attitude is very good, "Now I'm just waiting."

"There is another appointment" Haha, which made Ms. Catherine laugh.

Catherine has been in China for a long time and is quite familiar with the Chinese officialdom. But to be honest, she is not very familiar with the appointment and dismissal procedures of cadres. However, the smiling person in front of her does not have the disappointed expression of those who have lost power. Of course she

I understand that people should be doing well in Bi Kong.

Liu Shi was also thinking in his mind that this extremely beautiful, yet a bit vulgar, foreign woman might be one of Chen Taizhong's huge harem. No wonder Director Chen doesn't like the woman I prepared for him. What he is doing is

Foreign sister-in-law.

This is the difference in class, and I cannot refuse to accept it. But fortunately, Taizhong is willing to expose his woman, and he also trusts me quite a lot. I must flatter this woman.

He secretly made up his mind not to mention it here, but Chen Taizhong started talking to Catherine, "It was almost five o'clock when we got off the plane. Thanks to Director Liu for picking me up, do you have any plans for dinner?"

"I invited someone from Linhe Aluminum to have a meal with me." The beautiful female boss frowned, picked up the phone on the table, and asked in a asking tone, "How about I reject him?"

Of course that would be the best. Chen Taizhong was about to say this, but he saw a trace of hesitation in her eyes, so he smiled and shook his head, "Okay, there's no need to refuse him, just invite him to sit with us. Well, let's go to Lin Aluminum Station in Beijing."

done

Fan Rushuang is a very strong leader. Not to mention women, even among men, it is very unusual for someone to be as strong as her. To be honest, Zhang Yaodong is not as strong as her in Phoenix by more than one street. Of course, this is not the same as Lin Al

It's related to the company, but it's more due to her personality.

Therefore, when Lin Aluminum's vice president comes to the capital, he must have food and accommodation at the Beijing Liaison Office. This is also the system she has set. Even if there is a last resort, he has to go to other places for consumption, but the Beijing Liaison Office does not recognize it.

If so, you can figure out a way to handle the expenses yourself.

In fact, for many leaders, it is not a problem at all to find a way to handle the expenses themselves, especially for those who hold real power. But since Mr. Fan has set the rules, whoever thinks it is just a matter of paying for themselves,

It is very likely that the qualifications for self-care will be cancelled.

No one wants to make a mistake on such a small thing.

Therefore, Vice President Wei also lived in the Beijing Office. He was originally ready to go to the Wangfu Hotel, but when he heard the other party's repentance, he was a little dissatisfied, "Catherine, it was you who invited me to the Wangfu Hotel. Now I want to go to the Wangfu Hotel."

It's you who came to the Beijing Office. I want to confirm that you are still at the Beijing Office. It won't change, right?

Catherine knew very well that this person was just a make-up. Her relationship with Fan Rushuang was now very good. In Mr. Fan's words, it was just a formality.

Vice President Wei also knew in his heart that the foreign boss of Prince Company had huge power behind him. If he could defeat Siemens and win the project, it was not something that ordinary people could do. Although there were rumors that Fan Rushuang had some influence in it, it was obvious that

, Boss Fan alone cannot make such a big splash.

So when he faced Catherine, he was somewhat self-aware and knew that what he could think about was a ten-day trip to the United States or a half-month trip to Europe. However, even so, the other party suddenly changed his mind and sent him here.

Being sent there also made him quite unhappy.

What's more, this dining place is located in the Beijing Office. Not only has Mr. Wei grown tired of eating here, but more importantly, the people coming and going here are all people from Linhe Aluminum. Are you afraid that you are not ostentatious enough?

"Director Chen from the Phoenix Investment Promotion Office is back from Oufan," Catherine replied in less than standard Chinese, "He wants to treat me to dinner, I was thinking. Maybe Mr. Wei is interested in getting to know him. Of course, if you are busy, then

I won't bother you

"Director Chen?" Mr. Wei hesitated before asking softly, "Is it Director Chen Taizhong?"

Chen Taizhong has never been to Linhe Aluminum Industry. However, no one among the senior leaders of Linhe Mingye does not know such a person. Brothers Zhang Daqing and Zhang Yongqing fell into the Phoenix people's calculations, and Yinping also rectified the mining rights and was about to be oxidized.

During the season when aluminum prices surged, the unified coordination on the Yinping side made Linlu feel a little constrained.

Moreover, Qingwang and Fenghuang are adjacent to each other. Chen Taizhong's influence in Fenghuang has been heard in Linhe. Whether it is among the people or in officialdom, Director Chen's influence cannot be ignored by anyone.

After getting Catherine's reply, Mr. Wei readily agreed, because he also knew something more that others didn't know, that is, Director Chen and Mr. Fan had a very good relationship. Even the electrolytic aluminum project was led by Chen.

The director helped us run down. Vice President Wei was in the Nonferrous Metals Corporation, but there were people there.

By the time Chen Taizhong and his team of five arrived at the Linli Office in Beijing, Mr. Wei had already arranged the Er dishes. Except for the driver, who had other arrangements, Chen Taizhong, Liu Shi, Catherine and Elizabeth all sat together.

When Mr. Wei heard that this short, fat man who seemed to have a leadership temperament was actually a cadre at the deputy department level of Bikong Province, he felt more and more grateful. Hey, luckily I didn't show any attitude towards Catherine. Look, she is a

The dignified deputy director ran around with Director Chen, acting as he should.

The second reason is that others don't know how much they respect Chen Fengren, and they even ask him to sit under him when sitting on the seat board. Anyway, this is Beijing, not the blue sky, so it doesn't matter if he does something a little more outrageous.

In fact, Director Liu has no choice anymore. He doesn't even have a place now. Although Na Pali promised to help, he feels uneasy because he hasn't been able to sit firmly for a day, right?

What's more, he also wants to think about the executive deputy mayor of Xiping? To be honest, if the bureau is a mixed bureau, the director of the Health Bureau is probably top-notch, but with Secretary Meng protecting him, he really wants to be in the party

Political cadres will try their best to keep their word.

With the two uninvited guests like him and Chen Taizhong, Mr. Wei couldn't talk about the project with Prince's people. In fact, Catherine didn't intend to talk about that. They just chatted about casual things.

As for the details, those who should worry about them have to worry about them.

So, everyone talked and talked about the newly established European Office in Phoenix City. Liu Sai lamented that he could not be there, and Mr. Wei couldn't help but interrupt, "Director Chen, we have both sex and foreign trade. You

It’s time to invite Boss Fan to go there

"The place was too small to hold a few people, so three ministerial-level cadres went there that day. There were also the chiefs' secretaries and children." Chen Taizhong sighed with a wry smile, and explained with some showboating, "You know we

Mayor Wu Yan, right? She can only stay in the lobby."

Speaking of young cadres in Fenghuang City, the most famous one is not Chen Taizhong, but Wu Yan, the youngest deputy director of Tiannan Province and extremely cool. As a neighbor, Vice President Wei has of course heard a lot.

There are legends about this person.

However, he didn't think about Mayor Wu. The other words were even more shocking, "Who are the chief's secretary and children?"

"Anyway, there are more than three or five." Chen Taizhong smiled and shook his head. He didn't want to tell him in detail that our friendship had not reached that stage. "It would be easy to invite Director Fan to go, but if the hospitality is not good, then I will be guilty of a big sin."

Mr. Wei didn't know that one of the three ministerial-level cadres belonged to a foreign country. He thought to himself that three of them had gone to China. Minister, the "chief" you mentioned must be at the level of deputy prime minister or above, right? So

Many talented people go to cheer for you, but if Boss Fan goes there, he might really just stand aside and watch.

Considering this, he had a more intuitive understanding of Chen Taizhong's abilities. He could only laugh and said, "After that, when I go to Europe, if I have any disputes, I can just come to you, Director Chen, right?"

"That's right, I have no problem with my friends." Chen Taizhong smiled and nodded, thinking that if Catherine hadn't been working on your Lin Aluminum project, you, a big-ass deputy director, would have dared to talk to me like this, and I would have argued with you.

Come on, buddy, are you familiar with me?

Liu Shi was good at observing people's words. Seeing that his answer was a bit unpleasant, he couldn't talk about it and changed the subject. Since everyone was from all over the world, he simply talked about Yangguang's "crossing the bridge to join the cabinet" case.

He was talking about his own affairs, but everyone was listening to other people's legends. Of course, it attracted a lot of attention. However, when it came to connections at the provincial and ministerial levels, Director Liu would not speak properly.

Mr. Wei expressed some dissatisfaction with this, "Ting Liu, just make it clear. Who cares about Bi Kong?"

"Who doesn't know the above things?" Liu He retorted rudely, "It would be boring to explain it too clearly, don't you think so, Mr. Wei?

All in all, this meal was quite enjoyable. While the Chen family was buying Mr. Wei's face, they also did not forget to show off their muscles. Liu Sai spared no effort to beat the drum. So, it is inevitable that everyone gets something.

of.

After dinner, Chen Taizhong didn't let Director Liu go, but took him to the bar to drink. Brother, I haven't really used you yet, so you can't just run away like that.

epiphany

Liu Xi didn't expect that it was already after eight o'clock, and the Chen family was still interested in taking him to drink. He said in his heart that they had good intentions, and I had to accompany Director Chen well even if I risked my life.

The four of them went to a European-style bar with a very elegant environment. They ordered a bottle of red wine and a dozen beers, and drank and chatted slowly. After a while, Chen Taizhong finally brought the topic to the right track, "Catherine, who do you know in Germany?"

person?"

Catherine looked at him strangely and hesitated to answer in English, "No, I don't have many contacts with Germans. Regarding Siemens' authorization, it was because of some other factors.

Chen Taizhong intended to let Liu Liao hear the matter clearly. He had to ask again in Chinese if he couldn't help it. Director Liu's English was no better than an illiterate old lady. "Then, those other factors can still play a role now."

Does it work?

Catherine was an eccentric master. When she heard him speak in Chinese again, she vaguely guessed something in her heart. She couldn't help but replied in Chinese, "Maybe why don't you tell me first, what is it?"

"About the German Mannesmann company, I heard that they may be acquired by others," Chen Taizhong replied with a smile, "You know, I am quite envious of Mannesmann's technology.

Of course Catherine knew that the only person who coveted Mannesmann's technology could be He Baohua, but this was not important. What was important was that she was curious about the relationship between Mannesmann's acquisition and his admiration for technology. Is there any connection between the two?

?"Oh, I don't quite understand what you said. Please continue."

When she heard that Vodafone was planning to acquire the company in a hostile manner, she knew what was going on. There is no need to say too much to a smart person. Once the acquisition is successful, it is inevitable that Mannesmann will face a split.

However, Catherine's answer still surprised the Chen family. Her thinking was really open-minded, "I seriously doubt that there are forces like Ximenwu or Thyssen-Sulupp behind this."

, you are really a talent! Chen Taizhong had to admire her quick thinking. However, this was not the answer he wanted. "What I want is, can your Prince company coordinate and buy some of these properties?"

Move them to Phoenix?"

"I'm very grateful that you think so highly of me." Catherine curled her lips in confusion. "But are you sure you know how big a company Mannesmann is?"

"Of course I know that." Chen Taizhong smiled. In order to acquire Mannesmann, Vodafone actually wanted to sell Olympic Express. It spent more than 30 billion British dollars to acquire it. Even if it was malicious, it was enough to imagine Mannesmann's

Stronger, "No matter how big a company is, once it is dismantled, it cannot be said to be big."

If there is enough time, I can raise about one billion US dollars in funds in the short term, but you heard that it is only in the short term, and the interest rate on the loan will not be very low." Catherine looked at him seriously, with a sullen face.

"However, what do you think you can buy with this little money?"

Liu Shi almost chewed his beer glass out when he heard this. Originally, he had no intention of speaking out about this matter, but when he heard that this foreign beauty opened her mouth, it was worth a billion dollars, and shutting up was not enough. His heart was really full.

I feel deeply, what does it mean to be wealthy? Let’s go.

Director Liu had already heard during dinner that this beautiful boss was engaged in big business, but she seemed to rely on connections to earn some agency fees, so he had always thought that this woman was hooking up with Chen Taizhong.

For the convenience of doing business, however, it sounds like the reality is not exactly what he thought.

"You can just buy some key departments." Chen Taizhong was a little bit excited after hearing this, thinking that his brother's Xumi Ring still has some good stuff, but it's a pity that he can't sell it. "You can secretly promote the split process."

"This is impossible, no one is a fool, and everyone wants good departments." Catherine smiled and shook her head, "Besides, Germany has Siemens, ThyssenKrupp, and Salzgitter Steel

"So, it seems I can't get anything out of this matter?" Chen Taizhong was a little depressed, "Catherine, originally I thought you could really help me.

"Of course I can help you, but what can I get?" Catherine smiled slightly when she heard this. Her mysterious charm was enough to confuse all living beings, "You only helped me win one Linhe Aluminum Industry, which is not enough."

I don't know why, but she likes to torture him the most, and likes to see him frustrated or embarrassed. This can give her great inner satisfaction, and she doesn't even mind doing it in front of Liu Xi. Of course, this is also

It can be regarded as a relatively different kind of intimacy, it depends on how people understand it.

This Catherine was really not that smart. Chen Taizhong believed that she had already guessed something. He turned to look at Liu Xi beside him and smiled slightly, "Director Liu, what do you think if I ask Boss Meng for two projects?

Will he refuse?"

This is the reason why he keeps Director Liu with him. If Old Liu is smart enough, he should know that I intend to ask Meng Yi through his mouth. Of course, it is not impossible for me to ask Old Meng directly, but Wan

It was not convenient for Yi Lao Meng to reject my words directly. Not only was it a bit embarrassing, but it also hurt our feelings, wasn't it?

Of course, Liu Sai may not be qualified to talk to Boss Meng at all, but it is still very simple to convey these words to Na Pali, right? I hope you are as sensitive as I imagined, Liu.

"Director Chen, this is just a joke. Secretary Meng trusts you very much." Director Liu's ears are really not free. In fact, he wishes he could get involved because he, Boss Meng and the director basically have nothing to do with him.

There are no common topics for chatting, except to express loyalty and express loyalty.

So, the current matter is a good talking point, and at the same time, it can show to the director how close he is to Director Chen. Even if Chen Taizhong doesn't say anything to test, he plans to try to get involved.

Therefore, the next moment he proved that he understood what he said, and the gesture of kindness was very straightforward. He smiled and nodded, "Katherine, you can give me some information. I will take it and ask Secretary Meng's secretary first.

Let’s see if Bi Kong has any suitable projects, of course. If there aren’t any for now, you can’t blame me.

To be sure, this. "Not for the time being. It may not mean that it is not for the time being. This is just a euphemism. After all, such a big order may involve some big forces. Director Liu knows that Secretary Meng is not unkind to Director Chen, but

He did not dare to judge whether Secretary Meng could unconditionally support Xiao Chen in this matter.

"Thank you so much, Director Liu." Catherine laughed again when she heard this. She didn't forget to glance at Chen Taizhong as she spoke, "It seems that Director Chen introduced me to another distinguished guest."

"No, no, no." Liu Zhi waved his hands hurriedly after hearing this. How could he have the guts to accept this comment? He couldn't help but smiled bitterly, "Katherine, you are wrong. Secretary Meng trusted Director Chen. I am just a messenger. I still pointed

Director Chen said something nice to me. You need to figure out who to thank.

I figured it out a long time ago. I wanted to persuade Taizhong to go to Bikong to help me get the project. Catherine was finally able to completely confirm the purpose of Chen Taizhong bringing this person here today.

It's no wonder that all my hard work on you is in vain. "Ha, it turns out that Director Chen is the best."

When it was close to half past ten, the four of them finally parted ways. Liu Shi watched three tall figures, a guide, two women, get into the little Beetle. He shook his head with a smile and sighed softly, "It's good to be young."

"

He was very happy about today's meeting. He sweated... because he had peeked into Chen Taizhong's privacy, but because he had taken a big step forward in the small circle of Zhi Youzhong and Napali. He knew very well that this

This kind of opportunity is rare.

Of course, the style of the female boss of Prince Company also strengthened Director Liu’s confidence in helping Guan Dao. That woman was not an ordinary person. She could see everything about a merger and acquisition as big as Mannesmann’s. Taizhong

He also thought that she could intervene. If he recommended such a person to that department, he would definitely not insult the secretary of the provincial party committee secretary.

Catherine also had doubts in her mind. As soon as she got into the car, she grabbed Chen Taizhong and asked, "Hey, don't you want me to finish the Linhe Aluminum Industry first? Why are you having trouble with the Bi Kong people again? Could it be that you want to trade this for Mannes?"

Man? This is not enough."

"I just want to tie you to my belt forever and prevent you from cheating on me, so I have to work hard to help you find projects." Chen Taizhong laughed, stretched out his hand and gently scratched the bridge of her nose, "

Haha, where can such a big project be said to exist? It is necessary to try to fool the boss first.

"Really?" Catherine looked at him with a little doubt, but she was very happy in her heart. She kept threatening to cheat on him, but she didn't necessarily think so in her heart. She was nervous when she saw him.

, of course you will be in a good mood.

However, the next moment her heart was in doubt, because she found something was wrong with Chen Taizhong's expression. She hesitated and asked doubtfully, "Taizhong, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay." Chen Taizhong tried his best to smile, but his heart was surging. He was half blaming himself and half excited. Some things had actually been showing signs for a long time, but unfortunately, my brother still felt too slow!

He dared to start pursuing Bi Kong's idea. A very important point was that before he went to Europe, Huang Hanxiang said that he could not go. At the same time, he once mentioned to him that Catherine's Prince company should increase its public relations efforts and get more money.

list.

This was very different from Mr. Huang's previous views, but Chen Taizhong didn't think much of it. He just thought that Catherine had cooperated well on the Linli project. Dean He and Erbo Huang were satisfied, so they were willing to help her get two more orders.

Of course, this may also be because Mr. Huang promised to support him, but failed to do so, so he released Prince.

Since Huang Hanxiang could loosen his ties, of course the Chen family could also loosen their ties. And because he had helped Meng Yi in Bi Kong, and Boss Meng's attitude towards him was no different from before, so he felt that Wei Shi could not give it a try.

But just now, Catherine's short "Really?" suddenly made him think, why did Huang Erbo encourage him to help Prince more?

Things are not what I thought. The root of Mr. Huang's loosening of ties lies in the Southeast incident! This realization was like a thunderbolt in the dark night, suddenly exploding in front of his eyes!

Just like the listing of the Office in Europe, Huang Hanxiang went there before Huang Hexiang. Why did Secretary Huang go? Because for him, the majesty of the Huang family cannot be underestimated. This is also the force he must rely on to make progress, so he has to use this method

.to express the Huang family’s concern.

Similarly, Huang Hanxiang was restricted by the old man to the country and could not go out casually. He was also angry, wasn't he? Then he could only express his dissatisfaction by intervening more in things like Lin Aluminum - I don't engage in ocean trade, but there are still people in the country.

There is business to be done, don't think that I can't do it without it.

What's more, his decision is not without warning. I am not someone to be bullied. I can cooperate with you, but I am acting in an upright and correct way. I am innocent. So if you make trouble in the country to compensate for the losses, you can also

You can't say anything to me, right?

Therefore, except for the eldest son who went to the United States, no one in the Huang family had a fuel-efficient lamp! When Chen Taizhong thought about the reason why Huang Hanxiang did what he did, the expression on his face was a little weird, but that was really normal.

Tsk, my brother's emotional intelligence hasn't been trained enough! After thinking about this, he couldn't help but sigh, thinking that he was so stupid that he thought that Huang Erbo was satisfied with the work of Prince Company, or that Dean He was very interested in those materials.

Satisfied, he was really at a loss of whether to laugh or cry. People think about things from a completely different perspective than he does.

Chen Taizhong didn't expect this hearing ability, so once he thought about it, his mind started to spin crazily, and then he was surprised to find that he was definitely not wrong.

Mr. Huang did not go to Europe, but Zhou Rui went and brought Mr. Huang's name with him. This was enough. So at this point, Mr. Huang did not feel guilty towards him. Without apology, there would be no compensation. So, for

Catherine's company's support is just Mr. Huang venting his dissatisfaction and expressing the Huang family's anger!

It's okay at last. It's not too late for me to react now! Chen Taizhong finally found a reason to comfort his injured heart, "Well, I'll scratch it in other places later and see if I can find something for you.

project

"I always feel that you are still thinking about Mannesmann." Catherine looked at him with a smile, "Well, Director Liu was here just now, so it's not appropriate for me to say too much. Now you can tell me what you want.

, which company is it? Or do you only want information about that company because of Dean He? "

"I definitely want that company. I'm still the director of the Investment Promotion Office. I definitely want to attract investment to Phoenix." Chen Taizhong snorted bitterly, "If you can get the company, why are you afraid that you won't be able to get the information?

"You are wrong to think so." Catherine chuckled and shook her head, "Even if you can get a small piece of the core information of Manzman, you can't get it. Moreover, a small piece also requires a lot of funds.

, you must be aware of this.
