Liu Qingyu's blunt question left Huang Lihai speechless. After holding it in for a long time, Huang Lihai said angrily: "Liu Qingyu, you are using strong words to make excuses."
Liu Qingyu said coldly: "Mayor Huang, you know best who is making such strong arguments. Mayor Huang, I respect your authority as a leader, but it does not mean that I will blindly follow you. Secretary of the Ruiyuan County Party Committee, I have the right to independent thinking and judgment, and I will continue to work according to my ideas until the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee makes a collective decision to withdraw me from this competition."
After saying that, Liu Qingyu hung up the phone and walked towards the front desk.
When Liu Qingyu checked in at the front desk, he saw Zhao Zhiqiang connected to the phone and talking to someone. After a while, Zhao Zhiqiang looked at Liu Qingyu with unkind and provocative eyes, and Liu Qingyu responded with a sneer.
Both of them knew very well that now, in Yanjing City, they had to compete fiercely to obtain the special support funds for highway construction in the area they were responsible for. The winner would be able to smoothly carry out the highway construction project, while the loser would It is very likely that the party will have to suspend the construction of this project. After all, it is impossible for Nanhua City to start two such large-scale projects at the same time.
After completing the accommodation procedures, Liu Qingyu called his good brothers in Yanjing City and asked them to have dinner together.
The first person to rush over was Heizi's son, Xiao Erhei. Xiao Erhei inherited Heizi's tall and dark appearance, but he looked much more handsome than Heizi, and his skin color was also lighter than Heizi's.
When Heizi saw Cheng Tieniu standing next to Liu Qingyu, he was a little dumbfounded, because he suddenly discovered that the guy standing next to Liu Qingyu was almost the same as him in terms of figure and clothes. Even his appearance was the same. They are quite similar, the only difference is that this guy's skin color is slightly darker than mine.
Xiao Erhei thought to himself: "Damn it, could this guy next to Boss Liu be my father's illegitimate son? Why does this guy look so similar to me?"
Thinking in his mind, Xiao Erhei said directly to Liu Qingyu: "Boss, who is this brother next to you? Please introduce me to him."
Liu Qingyu smiled and said: "His name is Cheng Tieniu. He is now my driver and my good brother."
With that said, Liu Qingyu patted Cheng Tieniu and said: "Tieniu, this is my good brother, nicknamed Xiao Erhei, you can just call him Erhei."
Cheng Tieniu stretched out his hand angrily and said, "My name is Cheng Tieniu."
Xiao Erhei stretched out his hand and shook Cheng Tieniu's hand. During the handshake, the two of them seemed to have a clear understanding of each other, and they both used their strength.
Almost instantly, Xiao Erhei felt as if his hand was holding a piece of steel. The opponent's palm was as hard as iron and full of strength. Cheng Tieniu also felt for the first time a strength that was almost as strong as his own.
The two held hands for a while and then separated. Xiao Erhei smiled and said, "Boss, I recognize Cheng Tieniu as my brother."
Xiao Erhei is a very cheerful person. For him, if he wants to integrate into Liu Qingyu's circle, he must have considerable strength or character. With Xiao Erhei's shrewdness, he can naturally see that Come out, this guy Cheng Tieniu is definitely one of those kind of single-minded people, and there must be no problem with his character. Otherwise, Boss Liu will never let him be a driver, and Xiao Erhei can feel it just by looking at his strength. Cheng Tieniu is definitely not an ordinary person, and the opponent is only slightly stronger than himself. This is the first time he has encountered such a person.
As the saying goes, heroes cherish heroes, the two of them recognized each other after a simple contest.
Huang Deguang, Lu Zhao, Liang Jiayuan, and Lin Yun came next. It was the first time for these four Liumen heroes to meet Cheng Tieniu. However, after some introductions and exchanges, the four of them quickly fell in love with the new Cheng Tieniu. The brothers who joined, because Cheng Tieniu's signature moves are so powerful, eat.
Xiao Erhei has always been the most eater among them, because Xiao Erhei can eat as much as two or three of the average person, but Xiao Erhei's appetite can only be compared to Cheng Tieniu's. He can be considered a small witch but this guy can eat as much as five or six of them by himself, and he can only barely fill his stomach.
Of course, it would be impossible for Cheng Tieniu to integrate into the circle of Liu Men's Four Elites just because he was good at eating, but Cheng Tieniu's honest and honest character soon showed up when he was drinking. This guy would always drink a glass of wine with everyone, and his drinking capacity was not high. At the end of the day, he always says what he wants when he speaks. Such a simple character naturally wins the unanimous approval of the brothers.
At the banquet, everyone naturally talked about Liu Qingyu's purpose of coming to Yanjing City. When everyone heard that Liu Qingyu said that he was coming to seek financial support from the ministry, Xiao Erhei smiled and said directly: "Boss, this matter is right It’s not a piece of cake for you, just call Uncle Zhuge Feng and everything will be settled.”
Before Liu Qingyu could speak, Huang Deguang spoke: "Xiao Erhei, you said it simply, but the problem is that Boss Liu is now in the period of tempering, and Uncle Liu has already made rules for him, that is, during No one will give him any help until he reaches the ministerial level. He has to rely on himself for everything in the officialdom, so taking Uncle Zhuge Feng's path will definitely not work."
Xiao Erhei suddenly made a bitter face and said: "Isn't this a trick? How long has Boss Liu been in the officialdom? How many people does he know?"
At this time, Lin Yun suddenly said: "I suddenly remembered a person. This guy's name is Zhou Haoming. He is now the office director of the planning department of the ministry. He and I used to come from the same compound. He is a few years older than me. , but our relationship is not bad. I can try to see if I can ask him to help with Boss Liu's matter. We can ask him out to drink together in the evening. Now we can only rely on our own strength to help Boss Liu handle this matter. "
Everyone nodded slightly after hearing Lin Yun's words. Lin Yun's opinion was still very reasonable. With Liu Qingyu's current status, if he wanted to use personal connections, he could only use higher-level connections. Even if that operation was successful, , it is also easy to be criticized by others, and even used as a handle, and that is very detrimental to Liu Qingyu's future development, because those relationships do not belong to Liu Qingyu, but to his father Liu Fei.
On the contrary, if Liu Qingyu builds a wide network of contacts through his brothers and friends, especially the middle and low-level contacts, he can gradually expand his own network of relationships. As he grows older, as different people in these contacts grow with each other, As he gets older and reaches a higher level, Liu Qingyu's relationship network will become more stable.
What does it mean to be a brother? People like Lin Yun who think about Liu Qingyu and the future of their brothers almost all the time are considered brothers.
Liu Qingyu nodded and said, "Okay, let's meet Zhou Haoming together that night and do some public relations."
At this time, Huang Deguang also smiled and said: "When Lin Yun said this, I also thought of a person. This person's name is Jia Zhenyang, who is the executive deputy director of the Financial Audit Department. He has a good relationship with me, so I also called him that night. superior."
Liu Qingyu nodded vigorously. He didn't expect that although these guys were a bit messy at ordinary times, they were still quite effective at the critical moment.
Later, Lin Yun and Huang Deguang called Zhou Haoming and Jia Zhenyang respectively and asked them to have dinner at Huaheng Hotel at 7 p.m.
Zhou Haoming agreed readily and said he would attend on time, but Jia Zhenyang told Huang Deguang that he had made an appointment for a dinner in the evening, but he happened to be at the Huaheng Hotel, and he also said that Huang Deguang had originally made an appointment with him. I should have gone there as soon as possible, but the people attending today's dinner party were introduced by superiors, so I couldn't be too negligent. I would go there at 7:30 at the latest.
Huang Deguang knew Jia Zhenyang relatively well, so he didn't say anything more. He just told him that he would introduce a good friend to him tonight.
After finishing the business, the brothers started to exchange glasses and drank happily. However, this time the brothers were more restrained and did not drink too much. After all, there was a drinking party in the evening.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, in the private room No. 8 of Tianzi of Huaheng Hotel, Liu Qingyu, Xiao Erhei, Cheng Tieniu, Huang Deguang, Lin Yun and other brothers gathered around the wine table. Next to Liu Qingyu, a man in his 30s sat middle-aged man.
Lin Yun introduced with a smile: "Boss, this is my good friend Zhou Haoming that I told you, who now serves as the office director of the Planning Department."
After saying that, Lin Yun introduced: "Old Zhou, this is my good brother Liu Qingyu, the boss of us."
Lin Yun did not give much introduction to Liu Qingyu's life background. Everyone who should know about Liu Qingyu's identity knows it, and those who shouldn't know don't know either. As Liu Qingyu's good brother , there is no need for him to show off Liu Qingyu's identity to anyone, there is no need at all.
Although Zhou Haoming and Lin Yun are from the same compound, his status and background are not enough to know Liu Qingyu, because they are not in the same circle at all. However, he is an understanding person, and he knows Liu Qingyu among everyone present. The two of them knew that they were not ordinary people, and Lin Yun was not ordinary people. However, people like Lin Yun actually recognized Liu Qingyu as their boss. This only meant one thing, that was, Liu Qingyu was not ordinary people. people.
Therefore, although Zhou Haoming was the oldest among these people and even the most senior, he did not show off. When choosing a seat, he did not sit at the top according to Liu Qingyu's arrangement, but chose to sit in the Liu Qingyu's left hand side.
Afterwards, everyone introduced them one by one. After the introduction, everyone started drinking.
Liu Qingyu directly raised his glass and said: "Director Zhou, I would like to toast you with this first glass of wine. I hope you can give us more guidance and help in our work in Ruiyuan County."
Zhou Haoming immediately smiled and said: "Absolutely, I just don't know if you need my help."
Zhou Haoming is also a sensible person. He knows that today's drinking party must have a purpose.
