The interior space of a private jet is very large, but it does not pursue excessive luxury and luxury. Every detail is exquisite and comfortable.
Zhou Yu walked into the cabin door, passed by the rest area under the guidance of Han Xinyan, and was finally taken to the brightly lit reception area.
Soft leather sofas are arranged regularly. The soft carpets are like cloud cotton. There is soft music in the reception area. There is a fruit plate on the crystal coffee table in the center of the sofa. When Zhou Yu walked in, his face was a little pale.
Li Tianlan is pouring water into the teapot.
Just pour water.
Put the tea leaves in the teapot, pour hot water, wait for a while, and then pour the water into the cup.
There is no technical content at all.
But the tea leaves are very good, or very good, so with the injection of hot water, the aroma of tea quickly spreads out.
As if he felt the footsteps, the pale Li Tianlan raised his head and stood up with a smile.
Zhou Yu subconsciously quickened his pace, passed Han Xinyan, and took the initiative to extend his hands to Li Tianlan: "Your Majesty."
Li Tianlan stretched out his hand to hold him tightly, and patted him gently with the other hand. His smile was a little apologetic: "Mayor Zhou, I'm sorry, I thought you were still in Beifang City. I came out of the desert not long ago.
There are so many things to do, I'm so busy, if Xinyan hadn't reminded me just now, we might have missed this meeting."
This explanation is detailed and sincere, with full sincerity.
Zhou Yu was obviously a little excited, shook his hand even harder, shook his head and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, you don't need to say this, I can completely understand that the East Palace and Xuanyuan City have been developing very well recently, but there are so many things that your Majesty needs to worry about.
Quite a few, I am honored that Your Majesty can remember me."
Li Tianlan smiled and shook his head: "We are all our own people. You are welcome. Mayor Zhou, please sit down."
"Your Majesty, just call me by my name. I'm older than Your Majesty. If you don't mind, it's okay to call me Lao Zhou."
Zhou Yu sat down with a smile.
Han Xinyan's palms trembled slightly as she bent down to pour the tea, and she almost spilled the tea.
Lao Zhou.
This title sounds novel, and I'm afraid Zhou Yu himself would find it strange if he said it.
At the age of forty-two, he is one of the youngest governor-level officials in the entire Central Continent. Only Zou Yuanshan, Wang Jingxin and a few others can tie with him. For this position and his age, it is somewhat inappropriate to say that he is still young.
, it can be said that he is young and promising. It is estimated that Zhou Yu has never heard a title similar to Lao Zhou since he entered the official career.
"The title doesn't matter."
Li Tianlan smiled casually and handed Zhou Yu a cigarette: "No matter what you call him, Brother Zhou is a person I respect. I very much hope that the East Palace can have more pillar figures like Brother Zhou, but...
..seems a bit whimsical.”
These words undoubtedly gave Zhou Yu a lot of praise.
But what Zhou Yu cares most about and is excited about is Li Tianlan's description.
pillar!
This meaning is clear and unambiguous, and what it means cannot be more obvious.
He took the cigarette and lit it, took a deep breath, and then smiled and said: "When it comes to pillars, Your Majesty is the biggest pillar of the East Palace. From all aspects, with Your Majesty here, the rest of us can have room to play and have enough ability."
power."
Han Xinyan took two steps back and watched the conversation with some curiosity.
Qin Weibai said that she is now qualified to serve as the chief financial officer of the East Palace. In terms of professional ability, she has no problem, but in the final analysis, she is only a young woman one year older than Li Tianlan.
Li Tianlan is very young, but his personal strength and the support behind him are enough to support him from standing at the highest peak and watching the scenery.
But Han Xinyan doesn't think she has this qualification.
She still has a lot to learn.
It is easy to become a secretary, but it is as difficult as climbing to the sky to become Donghuang's secretary.
So she is learning and improving herself all the time.
Zhou Yu is undoubtedly someone worth learning from.
He observed the other party's words and deeds, watching him say relatively disgusting words in the most normal and natural manner that could be said to be sincere, maintaining a low profile, naturally exchanging business bragging with Li Tianlan, and turning the topic quietly,
From being a member of the East Palace to becoming a member of the East Palace, he expressed his loyalty straightforwardly but without any abruptness.
Although this conversation has just begun, both parties seem to have received satisfactory answers.
Han Xinyan stood aside, thoughtful.
Li Tianlan was silent for a moment while holding a cigarette, and said slowly: "Of course, in some ways, Brother Zhou and I are completely one. Your advancement and retreat is one of the most important things for the East Palace. We will do our best.
I will do my best to help you, give you greater support, and greater room for development. This is also the purpose of my conversation with you this time. In fact, after the funeral, the military advisor suggested that I meet with you, but in the East Palace
There are still many things that have not been sorted out internally. I don’t have a specific and detailed plan, so naturally I can’t make a specific promise to Brother Zhou, so I thought about delaying the meeting, but... ha... since we are meeting today
It’s good to talk when we’re here.”
"What does Your Majesty need from me?"
There was a slight smile on Zhou Yu's lips.
Li Tianlan and Donghuang Palace will give him the greatest support, which naturally means that he has to do something.
The Military Advisor's Golden Age Fund has been developing in Central Continent for many years. It has countless tentacles. Money can bring benefits, and the huge and unimaginable money brings an unbreakable alliance. For the Northern Group, the Military Advisor has almost completely tied them to them.
Together.
Zhou Yu is like this.
This is the case for Zhou Yunhai, the current director of the Central Continent Council and the leader of the Northern Group.
The same is true for Xia Qiuling, the only member of the Northern Group.
The core framework for the establishment of the new group should be composed of Wu Zhengmin and Bai Qingqian.
Then some of Li's remaining power will move closer.
Then, part of the power of the wealthy group and nearly half of the power of the Northern Group will automatically become the core of the new group.
From this point of view, the new group's lineup is already terrifying.
But after the emergence of the new group, if we put aside the support of the wealthy groups and the Northern Group, the honeymoon period with the Southeast Group will be over, and the power of the new group will still appear a bit immature among the several old groups.
Li Tianlan will support them, but not too much. It's not that he doesn't want to, but that he doesn't care.
He established the new group because he wanted to gain support, not simply to support others.
So there are many things that you need to fight for yourself.
Zhou Yu knew this very well.
Moreover, from the Northern Group to the New Group, this is not a matter of a word or a statement. He also needs to do something to prove his position and consolidate his position in the New Group.
Li Tianlan glanced at him with a chuckle and asked: "I heard that Zhong Yongming has a strong desire to control? He is also strict with some matters in Huating City Government?"
Zhou Yu's eyes flashed, and he smiled calmly and said: "The Speaker is indeed more concerned about the work of the city government on weekdays, but he doesn't get involved in specific things, especially more sensitive things."
From another aspect, this sentence also seems to indicate that Zhong Yongming has no way to get involved in some of the city government's work, especially the more sensitive things.
Li Tianlan glanced at Zhou Yu with squinted eyes.
Zhou Yu is the mayor and Zhong Yongming is the speaker.
Although Zhong Yongming is one level higher in rank and is a councilor, in Huating's system, the mayor is not the speaker's subordinate, but the speaker's partner. Although Zhou Yu is one level lower, he is from the north.
As the successor of the group, this status is enough to make up for some disadvantages in his level, so he has the conditions to be a strong mayor.
The only thing missing is some support.
Li Tianlan thought about some secret arrangements in Huating, tapped the teacup lightly, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhou, I haven't met Minister Yunhai yet, but I think he expects more from you, East Palace
My expectations for you are also more than that. The pillar of the East Palace should be a person who can control the overall situation. I can't give you a long-term plan, but at least I can set a short-term goal."
He paused and smiled: "Huating is beautiful, I like it very much."
Zhou Yu's eyes became extremely hot in an instant.
He smiled softly and nodded: "I understand."
Through the cabin window, looking at the brilliant lights outside the airport, he was silent for a while and said softly: "I like it here too."
Li Tianlan nodded: "I have returned to Tiannan to handle some matters, and will go to Youzhou as soon as possible. If possible, I will give you some support."
Zhou Yu's heart skipped a beat, he took a deep breath and let out a sigh.
By joining the new group, not only has the bond of interest between them and the military division become unbreakable, but also from the perspective of the Northern Group, the new group has an equally bright future.
Don't say that Zhou Yunhai expects more than this from him, even Zhou Yu himself expects more from himself.
Already the mayor of Huating.
Go further, Congressman.
Further, Director.
The declining Northern Group can barely maintain a director position in recent years.
And the ranking is getting lower and lower.
But the new group is different.
The combination of Wu Zhengmin and Bai Qingqian has stabilized the framework of the new group.
Five years later, Zou Yuanshan from Jiangsu and Zhejiang was already qualified to soar into the sky.
Whether it is a new group or a wealthy group, Zou Yuanshan will always be the number one figure in Zhongzhou that they strongly recommend.
Maybe ten years later, maybe fifteen years later.
At that time, the Eastern Imperial Palace would be unparalleled in power, and it was almost impossible for Zou Yuanshan to encounter any strong competitors.
Although Zhou Yu is a few years older than Zou Yuanshan, to be exaggerated, even if it is more than twenty years ago, he is still relatively young and powerful at his current level, and he can definitely keep up with Zou Yuanshan.
As long as he can get the approval of the Eastern Palace, when Zou Yuanshan rises to the top, there will definitely be a position for him among the directors around him.
And it is a position of absolute real power.
The opportunity was now before him.
If he can settle Zhong Yongming in Huating and satisfy Li Tianlan, then Li Tianlan will definitely satisfy him in the future.
At this moment, his thoughts were the same as those of Gu Xianyan outside the cabin.
This trip was well worth it.
Zhou Yu thought about the upcoming decisive battle in Beihai.
I thought of a series of situations that might arise after the decisive battle.
This is an opportunity for the new group to expand rapidly.
It's also his chance.
Zhou Yu made up his mind, looked at Li Tianlan, and said seriously: "Your Majesty, at the end of the year, I will invite Mayor Ning of Xuanyuan City to Huating to communicate with each other."
Li Tianlan's eyes lit up.
Ning Qiancheng is the mayor of Xuanyuan City. In Xuanyuan City without a speaker, the mayor is the top leader, and the chief administrative officer in Xuanyuan City is a position similar to the mayor of Huating.
Normally, if the top leaders of Xuanyuan City are invited to come to Huating for exchanges, the person who can initiate the invitation can only be the top leaders of Huating.
This can completely illustrate Zhou Yu's confidence.
"very good."
He nodded and laughed.
The phone rang suddenly.
Han Xinyan answered the phone, walked to the side, and whispered something.
She left for less than a minute, then quickly came back and stood next to Li Tianlan, somewhat hesitant.
Zhou Yu subconsciously wanted to get up and say goodbye.
Li Tianlan had already waved his hand and said calmly: "There are no outsiders, just tell me."
Han Xinyan hesitated slightly, nodded, and said softly: "Your Majesty, there is news from Youzhou Sanatorium."
She paused and said softly: "Li Xi just woke up and she wants to meet you."
