Spring is warm and flowers are blooming, the grass is growing and warblers are flying.
It is a good season for traveling. Most people will want to take some free time to go out and relax. Of course, most people can only think about the pressure of social life, which makes it difficult for them to relax.
At the international port in Haigukou City, giant crane equipment is busy in the sky. Below is a giant cargo ship floating in the dark blue water; the cargo shore next to it is filled with containers; forklifts and trucks are constantly moving.
Going in and out; people can be seen hurriedly passing by everywhere on and off the boat, making it a busy scene.
There is no beautiful beach scenery, and people busy at the port have no intention of viewing the magnificent scenery of the sea and sky from afar.
A huge white cargo ship is docked on the shore and is about to sail to a distant country.
This is the first cargo ship owned by Zhengyang International Logistics Group. This voyage is also the first time that Zhengyang International Logistics Group has undertaken logistics transportation business by sea.
The goods transported include oversized equipment and equipment.
At this time, a red banner was hung on the freighter, with some slogans such as Smooth Sailing printed on it.
The person in charge of Zhengyang International Logistics Group Company and several major shareholders were all present to hold a celebration ceremony for the first sea voyage of the freighter.
Zheng Yaokai, the president of Ronghua Group, Zhan Xiaohui, the president of Jinghui Logistics Company, Wu Juan, the general manager of Jinghui Logistics Company and the general manager of Zhengyang International Logistics Group... and other senior officials are all smiling at this moment and some local governments specially invited to come.
The officials were talking.
Different from the busy scene at the port not far away, this place is full of luxury cars and well-dressed people standing there.
On the periphery of the crowd, there were some police officers standing there, on guard.
Today, all important leaders in the city are here. Of course, the public security authorities must be more vigilant. There is no room for any negligence.
In the distance, on the road dodging between the unevenly stacked containers, a row of six or seven black cars drove up.
"Coming, coming..."
Wu Juan smiled and greeted Zheng Yaokai, Zhan Xiaohui and several senior company personnel. The people who were chatting and laughing suddenly became silent and turned to look in the direction of the motorcade.
The motorcade stopped more than ten meters away from them, and these people greeted it with smiles.
The car door opened, and people in suits and ties got out of the car with smiles, shaking hands with everyone they knew and greeting each other. Among the convoys that had just arrived were several leaders from Fuhe City and Hedong Province.
Although Zhengyang International Logistics Group cannot be called the largest group company in Hedong Province, relatively speaking, the name of this kind of international freight is very loud, and the shareholders behind it are very important.
Ronghua Group is one of the top 100 companies in the country and is of great importance.
If Ronghua Group only has sufficient commercial weight, then the weight of another shareholder who is rarely known to the public cannot be measured in the business or political circles. This person has an extremely special identity. In the business world,
He suddenly raised his eyebrows
, a new star who emerged from the sky, few people even know his name in business; and in politics, it can be said that this person does not hold any official position, but he is among countless officials at the municipal level and above across the country.
, with a distinguished reputation and extremely special status and background.
However, in the minds of the public across the country, the vast majority of people do not even know that such a person exists.
Okay. Let’s think about the good things and don’t talk about anything else.
The main reason why government leaders are able to come here is to show that the government supports the outward development of large enterprises, encourages expansion, and other image issues.
However, for many business leaders and government leaders present, most of them have never seen Xu Zhengyang in person...
Wu Juan, Zheng Yaokai and other people who knew Xu Zhengyang, of course, first greeted, welcomed and thanked the government officials who had just arrived. These officials from Fuhe City and Hedong Province who had just arrived were also cordial with local officials.
Politeness, greetings... So Xu Zhengyang, who was walking behind the crowd, seemed a bit lonely and ignored.
Today, Xu Zhengyang is wearing this brand-new suit and is clean-shaven. He looks radiant and full of energy.
But standing outside a group of mostly middle-aged people in their forties and fifties, his image and identity immediately differed from those around him. In addition to the police, there were also some business leaders and
Officials and their entourage have an equal status.
To be precise, from an image perspective alone, his height of less than 1.75 meters, thin figure, and slightly unsuitable expression for such an occasion are far from the natural appearance that his entourage is accustomed to.
He doesn't care whether others are enthusiastic about him or not. If Wu Juan hadn't asked him to come today and said that he had already contacted government officials and invited him to come, as the chairman, it would be really embarrassing if you didn't come.
It doesn't make sense. Xu Zhengyang really doesn't want to come here.
However, Xu Zhengyang found himself very embarrassed now.
If he comes forward and greets him proactively, it seems like he can't get in; if he doesn't come forward, it seems like he is deliberately playing low-key and pretending to be cool...
Finally, Wu Juan was the first to react. She quickly walked through the crowd with a smile and walked towards Xu Zhengyang. She deliberately raised her voice and said, "Mr. Xu, why are you here?"
In fact, among the greetings from these entrepreneurs and government officials, some people have already begun to ask people they know who Xu Zhengyang is.
It happened that Wu Juan's high-pitched voice caught their attention at this time.
Everyone looked sideways at this place.
"Mr. Xu!" Wu Juan stretched out her hand.
Xu Zhengyang smiled slightly, stretched out his hand to shake Wu Juan's hand, and said, "Manager Wu is so lucky..."
As he spoke, Xu Zhengyang nodded to everyone looking at him with a smile on his face, and nodded politely and said: "Welcome everyone, thank you for coming to participate in this... um, ceremony."
Most people in the crowd were wondering, who is this...?
A few people knew Xu Zhengyang, so of course they smiled and nodded, but since they came with Xu Zhengyang, they naturally didn't have to step forward to shake hands with Xu Zhengyang or say hello.
The scene was a little quiet.
Wu Juan smiled and said: "Everyone, this is Mr. Xu Zhengyang, the chairman of our Zhengyang International Logistics Group Company."
There was a buzz in the crowd, and they all asked the entrepreneurs and officials from Fuhe City or Hedong Province nearby. Is he Xu Zhengyang? So young? Oh... By the way. He is indeed very young. This is a bit of a question.
My child is out of level.
"Zhengyang, your company has brought glory to our Hedong Province!" Wen Qin, the governor of Hedong Province who came with him, smiled and walked to Xu Zhengyang, turned around and said: "Ronghua Group and Jinghui Logistics Company jointly funded the establishment of Zhengyang
Yang International Logistics... I hope their company can have smooth sailing and create greater glory!"
Governor Wenqin had some conflicts because of Wang Duanhong and Xu Zhengyang, but they did not intensify.
Wen Qin, who later became the governor of Hedong Province, naturally heard something about Xu Zhengyang's mysterious identity and background, and Xu Zhengyang's subsequent frequent contacts with the highest-level figures made Wen Qin completely cut off the knot in his heart.
A few years ago, I went to the capital once, and through Li Ruiqing, I visited Xu Zhengyang and his family at their residence in the Hanwang Villa area.
In this way, there is a light and gentle relationship.
After Wen Qin finished speaking, loud applause immediately broke out...
Amid the applause, officials one by one came forward to shake hands with Xu Zhengyang and greet him, followed naturally by entrepreneurs who came forward to congratulate and introduce themselves.
If he hadn't been a god and had sufficient concentration, Xu Zhengyang, who had never experienced such a scene, would have been red-faced and overwhelmed, and probably would have been unlucky in any social interactions.
Even so, Xu Zhengyang didn't dare to say more in this kind of social situation, otherwise he would say that he was wrong and it would only add to the joke.
Fortunately, Wu Juan was there to help with the entertainment, and because of his special status, no one would think that this person was disrespectful.
So after all the noisy socializing, Xu Zhengyang finally calmed down relatively speaking.
Next to him, there were only two people, Wu Juan and Wen Qin.
First, Governor Wenqin and the Mayor of Haigukou City each briefly spoke a few words, and then Wu Juan, on behalf of Xu Zhengyang, thanked the government for its support, thanked all entrepreneurs for their help, thanked you for whatever...
Next, the ribbon-cutting ceremony began.
Xu Zhengyang and Wen Qin stood in the middle, as well as a dozen officials and three or four entrepreneurs lined up. They held scissors at the ready. Amid the cheers and applause of the crowd, they cut off the red flowers tied with a click.
of silk cloth.
The salute sounded...
Then, under the leadership of the captain and Wu Juan, all the guests boarded the freighter for a visit.
Xu Zhengyang naturally walked with Governor Wenqin, smiling and chatting with Wenqin, some of which were irrelevant. Xu Zhengyang is still not cold about this kind of occasion, is it necessary to make it so grand? Don't say this.
How much money will it cost, how much time will be wasted, just because these people have to be invited to a hotel to eat and drink, how much will it cost?
How many children in poor areas can go to school with this money?
Alas, Xu Zhengyang couldn't help but sigh, his heart ached.
He will not blame Wu Juan. This person is not the kind of extravagant and wasteful person. The problem is not with her, but with this real society.
This is like the charity banquets that Xu Zhengyang has seen in many news media. How much does the banquet cost in all aspects? Wouldn't it be better to have that money to do charitable things? Some people may say, don't do that
How can we make those rich and wealthy people willing to spend their money to do good deeds with such a luxurious and luxurious large-scale charity banquet?
That being said...
Xu Zhengyang could only sigh, formalism!
I'm afraid that among all the people who came today, only Xu Zhengyang, a guy with a weird mind, would think of charity and drag him into the charity banquet, and then severely despise those people who are in vain.
With these thoughts in mind, Xu Zhengyang certainly had no interest in any of today's itinerary.
However, while walking through the cabin of the freighter, Xu Zhengyang accidentally discovered a book thrown next to a table, which printed exquisite and beautiful Bagua pictures and an immortal covered with golden light sitting in a halo.
, wrote a few big words "A must-read for beginners of Taoist Immortal Kung Fu".
Xu Zhengyang frowned slightly.
Zhan Xiaohui, who happened to be following him, saw this and said: "Tao Xian Kung, there are many people practicing this technique now..." After that, Zhan Xiaohui lowered his voice and said: "Sir, if you are interested, I have two books in my car
, my driver is practicing this, and he recommended it to me."
"Are you practicing too?" Xu Zhengyang asked with a frown.
"Me? Where do I have such free time, haha." Zhan Xiaohui shook his head and smiled. He didn't take it seriously, "but some officials from our Fuhe Municipal Government also practice. I know this, and they also recommended it to me.
Passed. It is said that small exercises can maintain health and promote longevity, and the body will be in good health. After starting, it will prolong life. If the realm is higher, it can break the void and become an immortal and attain the Tao..."….
Xu Zhengyang nodded thoughtfully, and suddenly remembered the incident at the Zhuyuan Club in Shancheng.
Governor Wenqin, who had already walked over, turned around and saw Xu Zhengyang flipping through the book "A Must-Read for Introduction to Taoist Immortal Kung Fu". He looked at it casually. Zhan Xiaohui whispered something next to him, then turned around and walked over with a smile:
"Huh?" Xu Zhengyang was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said with a smile: "It's all nonsense. Governor Wen also learns this?"
"Me? Haha, I've only heard people talk about it occasionally, and I've also thought about keeping fit and healthy, but I don't usually have the time to look at these things, haha." Wen Qin said with a smile.
Xu Zhengyang also smiled, threw down the book, and continued to visit the freighter with Wen Qin.
However, Xu Zhengyang's heart has already stirred up huge waves. This is no ordinary way to maintain health. Last year, Chen Chaojiang reported to him this so-called "Tao Immortal Kung Fu", saying that it was discovered by ghosts in Zhongzhou City, Shannan Province. Some practitioners
People who practice "Taoist Immortal Kung Fu" often gather to study and communicate. At that time, Xu Zhengyang didn't pay much attention to it. Even the state would not stop normal Taoist beliefs, and they were just practicing some health-preserving methods or martial arts and physical fitness. It was nothing.
But now even the governor of a province has heard of it, and some officials are actually practicing it.
What shocked him even more was that this technique actually mentioned being able to break the void and become an immortal.
Things are serious!
Xu Zhengyang ordered in his mind: "Wang Yongyang, immediately notify the judge Li Haidong, and the ghost commander Su Peng, to find out what is going on with the Taoist Immortal Kung Fu... Remember, don't scare the snake first."
"Yes, sir!" Wang Yongyong bowed and retreated.
If it was just such an exaggerated statement in the propaganda, and occasionally some unscrupulous businessmen deliberately used it to attract attention and sell books to make money, then Xu Zhengyang would certainly not pursue it too much, and would just have people deal with those unscrupulous businessmen.
After visiting the freighter, they all disembarked. Then, amid the applause and farewells of business leaders and senior officials, the whistle blew, and the huge freighter slowly left the port.
Before the freighter had completely sailed out of the port waters, everyone here had already gotten into their cars.
Cars carrying dignitaries were preparing to drive out of the port. Today's guests were invited to have dinner at a four-star hotel in Haigukou City.
Xu Zhengyang, Wu Juan, Zhan Xiaohui, and Zheng Yaokai waited for the guests to get in the car, and then walked to their respective cars.
When passing by the cars of Zhan Xiaohui and Deng Wenjing, Xu Zhengyang asked Zhan Xiaohui to get him a copy of "Secret Techniques of Taoist Immortal Kung Fu", and then walked back to the car with the book. He thought about it for a while before arriving at the hotel and chatting with the people for a while.
After drinking a few glasses of wine and saying some polite words, we hurried back.
Firstly, he didn't like the lively scene, and secondly, he wanted to go back and take a closer look at what the "Tao Xian Gong" actually taught.
Wen Qin's casual words on the boat made Xu Zhengyang still feel a little sick in his heart.
Wen Qin said: "Zhengyang, are you also advocating this immortal skill? There are many words."
If the top officials in the government really mistook this extremely ridiculous thing as something they manipulated and produced behind the scenes...
Zhu Jun opened the car door for Xu Zhengyang.
Xu Zhengyang walked to the Mercedes-Benz that had just staggered a few containers, frowned and bent over, preparing to get in the car.
However, the moment he lowered his head, a strong uneasiness filled his heart. Jiuzhou Lu's golden light flashed in his mind, turned into a ray of light and appeared behind his head, and quickly flew away more than one meter away.
Stopped in mid-air.
Bang!
Sparks flying!
The fired bullet hit the Kyushu Lu, and the projectile ricocheted onto the rear wheel pan of the car, and then hit the cement pavement, stirring up a piece of debris...
Sudden situation!
When Xu Zhengyang stepped out to block the bullet in Jiuzhoulu, he turned around suddenly.
Zhu Jun reacted extremely quickly. He shouted to be careful, and immediately rushed forward to block Xu Zhengyang. At the same time, he drew his pistol: "Get in the car quickly! There are snipers!"
Xu Zhengyang threw his hands and grabbed Zhu Jun, jumped into the air, and hid behind the container as fast as lightning.
At the same time, two bullets accurately penetrated the glass of the Mercedes-Benz.
Xu Zhengyang frowned and said, "You go and protect others! Don't worry about me."
After that, without waiting for Zhu Jun to say anything, Xu Zhengyang kicked the ground with his right foot and suddenly jumped up to the two containers more than ten meters high, and then disappeared into the air like electricity.
The policemen who were responsible for guarding the surrounding areas did not react at that moment. It was not until the second and third bullets were fired that they quickly shouted that there was an assassin, a sniper, and hurriedly took charge of protecting the personnel and left... In the panic, no one was there.
Let’s think about the important person who suddenly and mysteriously disappeared just now.
The direction of the bullet shooting was from the north. Xu Zhengyang flew two hundred meters through the air like lightning, and then landed next to several containers.
Flying at such a high speed within such a short distance, even if it is discovered by others, will be mistaken for dazzling; but if the flight length is too long, it will easily attract attention.
So after Xu Zhengyang avoided those officials and entrepreneurs, he immediately deployed his consciousness and locked onto the assassin who was nearly two kilometers away.
Poor assassin, you can't run away.
However, Xu Zhengyang quickly calmed down. He had to go back quickly, otherwise there would be big trouble if any of those people found out that he was missing.
As for the assassin, just leave it to Wang Yongyong to take care of him.
Speaking of which, until now, Xu Zhengyang still has not been able to fully adapt to the behavior he needs to maintain in a high position in many situations.
There is no need to take action personally at every turn.
In Wang Yongyang's words: "Sir, you are slapping us in the face. We will feel guilty and blame ourselves, and we will die of shame."
