Sitting in the large chair in the office of Liberty Building, thinking about what happened in Longgang yesterday, I felt like I was traveling through time and space.
Lu Ming slowly flipped through the thick project document for renaming the Reno Building to the East China Sea World Trade Tower.
In the planning of the project document, the East China Sea World Trade Center is located next to the East China Sea Port. The building is 420 meters high, has 111 floors, and has an overall height of 462 meters. When completed, it will surpass the Empire State Building to become the tallest building in the world.
It is expected to raise 120 million yuan, which is 150% higher than the construction cost of the Empire State Building. After all, the Empire State Building was a building 20 years ago.
This project hopes to gain support from the Duke and Privy Council and obtain a low-interest loan of approximately 80 million to 100 million yuan from the Imperial Bank.
After all, it is to contribute to the construction of a metropolis in the East China Sea.
Lu Ming rubbed his chin. Fortunately, Christine was not a real public prince now, otherwise she would have clearly opposed it.
If you find out that you are the real owner, you will definitely be wary of your random ways to make money.
But as for today’s Privy Council, let’s wait and see.
Putting down the project book, I picked up the hot issues reported by community residents summarized by the recent community service stations compiled by the office in the past few days.
On the other side, there are some files signed by the head of the Commissioner's Office of the Grand Procuratorate that need to be reviewed personally. Under the thick files, there is a pile of documents from the Grand Duke Party.
The thick folders on the left side of the desk contain recent cases handled by Lu, Liu and Wang Law Firm, as well as the latest legal journals, etc.
Lu Ming looked at it, sighed, then picked up the document and flipped through it quickly.
Recently, one of the changes in my body is that I am probably used to being busy. Once I concentrate on doing something, I am surprisingly focused and efficient. I can completely understand the contents and analyze the results at a glance.
Otherwise, wearing multiple hats would be really overwhelming.
Listening to Murong Xue knocking on the door and coming in, listening to her saying that there was an important meeting in the party in the evening, Lu Ming promised to keep the matter in mind, and at the same time he could quickly read through the documents and understand the contents. After thinking about it, he felt a little
Surprised.
…
The Beiguan Party branch of the Grand Duke Party rents a two-story building in a small alley near the city hall.
Today's meeting was attended by twenty or thirty people. Ten members of our party including Lu Ming and Dong Wenquan were all present, but the remaining three members of our alliance were not eligible to participate.
In addition to the ten members of the party, there was also Du Jiahe, the party minister who presided over the meeting.
Zheng Daguo, chairman of the Village Committee.
Zhao Haojiang, chairman of the city committee.
Tong Jinzhao, Chairman of the Election Committee.
In addition, there are more than a dozen heavyweight members of the party who are considered party member representatives.
Wen Liangyu and Wang Jinfei were among them. Lu Ming was very surprised when he saw it. He didn't even know how they joined the Ecumenical Party.
Fourth Brother Wen's cleansing was very successful.
When it comes to heavyweight party members, there is no doubt about it.
Wen Liangyu looked at Lu Ming's confused look and smiled bitterly: "You were too busy and I didn't have time to say hello to you. It was Mr. Zhao who invited me to join the party. I also roped in Jin Lai. Will it affect you?" Wang Jinfei
The name was changed to Wang Jinlai, but it still felt a bit rustic, so he was too shy to mention his new name to others.
Some people looked at this scene with ridicule in their eyes. What kind of drama are you two playing?!
Zhao Haojiang, the chairman of the Urban Forum Committee, was a stooped little old man. He smiled at Lu Ming and said, "I dragged the fourth child here. If I don't pull him in, the fourth child will be dragged to the Liberal Party by that foreign devil Shylock."
!”
Lu Ming was startled again and looked at Wen Liangyu. When they went to the Western Regions, Sherlock and Wen's fourth brother got along very well, but he didn't expect that Sherlock would act quickly and even invite Wen Liangyu to join their Liberal Party?
Looking at Lu Ming's eyes, Wen Liangyu smiled bitterly: "Commissioner Sherlock has such a voice, I will consider it."
Lu Ming nodded. Actually, thinking about it, it might be better for him if Fourth Brother Wen joins the Liberal Party. All eggs cannot be put in one basket.
Mr. Zhao looked around, "Is there anyone here yet?"
The door was lightly knocked, and it was Sister-in-law Jiu who came in. She first smiled apologetically at Mr. Zhao: "Old Zhao, I'm sorry, I'm late!"
Mr. Zhao cleared his throat, "It's okay, you represent Qingzhao! You should be late!"
Faintly, he felt a lot of dissatisfaction with Qing Lao.
In the Beiguan Party branch, apart from Mr. Qing, Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zhang have the most seniority.
Forty years ago, after Mr. Zhao and Mr. Qing failed to compete for the nomination of members of the party, they joined the committee as soon as they got angry.
He has served as chairman of the Urban Forum Committee for more than 20 years.
However, the party ministers and the chairmen of the three committees did not participate in the election of members and concentrated on party affairs.
But his influence within the party has never been great.
The scene was somewhat awkward. Party Minister Du Jiahe stood up with a smile: "Sister-in-law Jiu, come here, this is Wen Liangyu, and this is Wang Jinfei. They are all our newly developed members. Please get to know each other."
He smiled at Lu Ming again: "Qian Xing, since you joined our party, our troops have become stronger and stronger!"
Mr. Zhao snorted coldly, "So, some people are clinging to their seats and don't know what they want to do!"
Dong Wenquan frowned slightly after hearing this.
Zhang Ruiguo, the member of the 26th District, twirled his gray beard and said, "Old Zhao, please be patient and don't let your juniors laugh at your personal grudges with Qingzhao!"
He is almost the same generation as Mr. Zhao and Mr. Qing, not much younger than him. He can be regarded as the troika of the Beiguan branch of the Grand Duke Party.
Sister-in-law Jiu smiled slightly: "I came today because my third uncle told me that he was about to die. If he didn't retreat, he would be scolded for holding on to his seat. Moreover, he had been observing him for a long time in the past few months.
, and I feel really relieved.”
"The third uncle said that young friend Lu Qianxing has a kind and honest character and will definitely lead the Ecumenical Party on the road to rejuvenation. From today on, he will resign as party leader and recommend member Lu Qianxing to be the leader of the new Ecumenical Party."
Sister-in-law Jiu's words were like a bombshell, and everyone immediately roared and started talking among themselves.
Dong Wenquan's face immediately became extremely ugly. Originally, he had been looking towards Wang Jinfei with something wrong in his eyes. At this time, his face was even more livid.
Zhang Ruiguo frowned slightly, thinking about what he was about to say.
Dong Wenquan stood up and said, "In this case, I will quit the party!"
Everyone was stunned, Zhang Ruiguo said with a smile: "Wen Quan, don't say angry words, sit down first!"
Dong Wenquan said with a cold face: "If I don't quit the party, there is no place for me to stand here!" He pointed at Wang Jinfei, "Everyone knows that his Wang family and Dong Ji Jinye are sworn enemies. Someone threw me away and took him to the Western Regions.
We have built a gold mine, and now we invite him to join our party as a party representative? What are you doing? Isn't this just squeezing me out? If I don't leave, are you still waiting to be kicked out?"
Zhang Ruiguo glanced at Wang Jinfei and sighed: "When you say this, it seems that there are some people who cannot tolerate others."
"It's Member Dong who can't be judged by others, right?" Mr. Zhao sneered, "I brought them here and they have nothing to do with little friend Qianxing."
A party representative coughed and said, "Wang Tongren went to the Western Regions because Comrade Dong did not agree with Comrade Lu's plan for the Western Regions. My fellow party members not only did not support it, but protested by being absent. Commissar Lu had no choice but to take Comrade Wang Jinfei with him."
The Western Regions."
Dong Wenquan immediately looked at the representative with a livid face: "Who are you? Is this what Lu Qianxing told you?"
The party representative smiled bitterly: "Commissioner Lu and I joined the party from him. I didn't even say a word to him. He probably couldn't even call me by my name. I heard all this from a good friend of mine in the Justice Party. He said Gao
That’s what Wang said when he had a secret conversation with them! He also said that he was going to pull you out of the way! You and Commissioner Gao Wang did meet in private, right?"
Lu Ming felt ashamed for a while. He really didn't know who this person was.
Dong Wenquan gritted his teeth and looked at the party representative.
Zhang Ruiguo shook his head: "Wen Quan, sit down. Colleagues in the party should unite as one and value peace. Although member Lu Qianxing is more junior, he has brought many new trends since he joined the party, and the young hero
Fa, as a role model for our generation, I also support Councilor Qianxing to succeed as the leader of the party."
Dong Wenquan was stunned and turned to look at Zhang Ruiguo, who was smiling with a twisted beard.
But there is no doubt that from the beginning to the end, not only Lu Qianxing, but even Lu Qianxing's die-hard supporters did not say anything. Two unidentified enemies jumped out and turned their accusations into questions about him.
It is absolutely normal for Zhang Ruiguo, an old cunning guy, to change his ways.
Lu Ming had already stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Thank you in advance for your support, seniors, but I am young and weak, and it is really difficult for me to lead all party affairs in this department. I have many secular affairs, and I really can't serve the party as wholeheartedly as the Qing Lao.
I am the leader of the party, and there is no way that this kid can do it."
The election of the party leader is no different from the election of a gang leader. However, while sitting in the office has many benefits, the party leader is a heavy burden.
I don’t even know whether I want to develop in the Ecumenical Party for a long time, so what kind of party leader do I want to be?
No matter how busy I am, what I am busy with is strengthening my own strength. Being the leader of the party is completely different.
As long as the army is strong and the horse is strong, there is no essential difference between being the party leader or not.
I never thought about this matter seriously, thinking that Qing Lao could still hold on for a while.
Who knows, the old man is about to retreat right now, either because he is fearful of others or because Sister-in-law Jiu has taken advantage of him.
Glancing at Sister-in-law Ninth, Lu Ming smiled bitterly. He must have been manipulated by her, and he was lying on the bed now scolding his unfilial nephew-in-law, right? Could he also be scolding himself for being a white-eyed wolf?
Hearing Lu Ming's words, Mr. Zhao glared: "Commissioner Lu, this is not a matter of whether you want to do it or not. Everyone thinks you are the most qualified to lead this department. Why, do you want to quit the party too?"
Lu Ming was helpless, and a scene from a movie appeared in front of his eyes. It felt like the old man was about to say, What, you joined the party just to get benefits? You are unwilling to contribute when you encounter problems? How can there be such a cheap thing? Damn!
He sat down hesitantly.
Seeing this scene, Dong Wenquan was so angry that his lungs exploded. It seemed that someone was forcing this guy to be the leader of the party with a gun, and he didn't know how wronged he felt.
