The banquet hall of Chucheng Lido Hotel was newly decorated today...
The Chucheng Entrepreneurs Reception was grandly held here.
The standards of this cocktail party are very high, and all the invited entrepreneurs must be worth at least over 100 million yuan to qualify.
So in a sense, being able to attend such a cocktail party is definitely a status symbol.
Today Shen Menglan is wearing a very decent suit, with a white shirt underneath and a slightly lowered neckline, revealing the faint career line on her chest.
An exquisite platinum pendant hangs around her neck, making her look solemn and elegant, and the feminine charm is also fully revealed.
She is indeed very confident, because now she has become a well-known entrepreneur in Chujiang. The performance of Wanhai Group, especially Wanhai Heavy Industry, has continued to soar this year, and its performance in the industry has attracted the attention of many people. , it can be said that it is praised and applauded by the industry.
Just a few days ago, her father personally called her. During the phone call, this business elite who never praised others rarely spoke highly of Shen Menglan's achievements.
And because of this, Shen Menglan's self-confidence exploded.
For a cocktail party like this, the government arranges it appropriately, and if there are entrepreneurs, they will be accompanied by celebrities from society.
Of course, most of the so-called celebrities, for the sake of gender balance, have to have female surnames. The leading actresses of TV stations and well-known star artists in Chucheng. Compared with the dresses of these women, Shen Menglan is so eye-catching among them. He stands out from the crowd.
Shen Menglan doesn't like wearing formal clothes by nature.
Because in the eyes of men, a woman who wears a formal dress, even if she is a lady, just needs to weigh the price to keep her under him.
Shen Menglan has always liked to be the leader. The effect she wants is to make those men fascinated, but she does not dare to have the slightest ambition towards them.
Only successful women, only strong ones among real women, are qualified to dress like Shen Menglan on such occasions.
There are many men today. What Shen Menglan needs is to see the respect and awe from the heart in the eyes of men, rather than the so-called so-called star-studded man who smiles like a gentleman on the surface but actually wants to be dirty in his heart. .
However, things went counterproductive.
Not long after Shen Menglan sat down today, she was stared at.
Hou Lin from the Hou Group came over to strike up a conversation in a personable manner. Shen Menglan knew that this guy was a playboy.
Hou Guanzhong, the Hou brothers, is ruthless and cunning, while Hou Lin is a playboy and rogue.
It is said that these two people were very popular in Chujiang back then, but later went to other places to develop, and have recently made a comeback.
In Shen Menglan's eyes, the so-called Hou brothers were those who earned a little money outside and came back with the idea of returning home in fine clothes.
Just like Hou Lin, he felt good about himself and immediately got close to Shen Menglan as soon as he got started, as if the two had known each other for a long time.
Shen Menglan just sneered in her heart, but on the face of her face, she still smiled like a flower.
Because the eyes of the women around them all showed envy, and some of them had jealousy in their eyes.
Shen Menglan's heart burst into laughter.
She has to tell these vases, what kind of woman is the most attractive? The one who has her own career, the one who makes men look up to her, is truly attractive.
What are those ladies in vases?
Shen Menglan has seen a lot. Don't look at the little birds who are clinging to others. In fact, at best, they are just the semen storage bags of those rich and handsome young men.
Chatting with Hou Lin all the time.
Hou Guanzhong came over at some point and toasted to Shen Menglan with a smile. Seeing his sneaky eyes, Shen Menglan felt a chill in her heart and felt goosebumps all over her body.
The Hou brothers, these two brothers...
When she thought of some possibility, Shen Menglan couldn't help but shiver in her heart, and her interest in chatting faded away.
At this moment, everyone around seemed to stand up one after another.
Then I heard the host say: "Dear entrepreneurial friends, let us welcome with warm applause Ms. Jiang Xiaoyan, Deputy Secretary of Chucheng Municipal Party Committee and Mayor, Mr. Chen Jing, Secretary of Jingjiang Municipal Party Committee, Mr. Xu Bing, Mayor of Jingjiang City..."
"Pah, pah!"
As the applause rang out, the crowd naturally dispersed, and Shen Menglan saw Jiang Xiaoyan and Chen Jing walking in side by side from the door in Chucheng City, chatting and laughing.
As soon as the two of them entered the door, they stopped talking and started to raise their hands to greet the entrepreneurs at the reception.
Then many entrepreneurs gathered around to shake hands with the leaders.
Shen Menglan stared at Chen Jing, wondering if she should go there.
The last time she was at the Jingjiang construction site, she still had a shadow in her heart.
At that time, that bastard Chen Jing did not give himself any face in front of so many people, making himself embarrassed.
Today I don’t know if this guy’s intestines are ok. If his intestines are not ok and he gets in trouble by himself, wouldn’t it be embarrassing?
"Tch, what are they all about? Why did Chen Jing come over to join in the fun at the entrepreneur meeting in Chucheng? Jingjiang must be so poor that he went to Chucheng to look for money!" Shen Menglan heard someone beside her. Hou Guanzhong said something coldly.
She couldn't help but raise her eyebrows and glanced at Hou Guanzhong.
She rolled her eyes and said: "Mr. Hou, Secretary Chen is known as the youngest municipal party committee secretary in the Republic. He has face, and the leaders of Chucheng have invited him over. How can we compete with him?"
Hou Guanzhong also stared at Chen Jing. After hearing what Shen Menglan said, he squinted at Shen Menglan, smiled coldly, and stopped talking.
When the leader arrived, it was natural for them to exchange pleasantries.
Then came the leader's speech. Since the cocktail party was not a formal occasion, Chen Jing did not go to the VIP seat. Instead, he held a wine glass and chatted casually with Hong Liang and others.
Of course it was Jiang Xiaoyan who delivered the speech.
Chen Jing heard that Lei Mingfeng was going to attend today's cocktail party.
I guess this person was so angry that he fainted in the afternoon, and he was still sitting at home looking for someone to vent his anger on!
When he thought of this, Chen Jing couldn't help but feel funny.
I had been very restrained in the afternoon and didn't seem to be provoking trouble, but Lei Mingfeng refused to let me go.
He was very proud of his higher position than himself, as if he couldn't show his sense of accomplishment without stimulating himself hard.
In this case, he is shooting himself in the foot, and Chen Jing has nothing to be polite about.
Compared with Lei Mingfeng's aggressiveness, Jiang Xiaoyan is much gentler. In fact, Jiang Xiaoyan and Chen Jing have known each other before.
When Chen Jing was working in Chujiang, Jiang Xiaoyan was the deputy secretary-general of Chucheng City and a female cadre specially trained by the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee.
Chen Jing also met Jiang Xiaoyan once in the organization department. This person gave people the impression that he was calm, capable, and very approachable. He was a cadre with a very good reputation within the system.
In fact, Jiang Xiaoyan was not affected by the thundering wind today.
It was obvious that Chen Jing and Lei Mingfeng had such unpleasantness, but she still personally invited Chen Jing in the evening, and personally arranged for Chen Jing to be a VIP. The two of them appeared together, which gave Chen Jing enough face.
This also made Chen Jing have a good impression of her. The two of them talked a lot about economic restructuring and had a good time.
In fact, Chen Jing is not very interested in the so-called entrepreneur cocktail party.
It's just that today and when Lei Mingfeng came, it wouldn't work if he didn't come.
Fortunately, there were many familiar faces attending the meeting, and Hong Liang was one of them. In addition, Park Lim-sang, President of South Korea's Seoul Electronics Greater China Region, and Chen Jing had also known each other for a long time. Chen Jing didn't think much about it, so he just chatted with a few familiar people. .
As for Shen Menglan, Xu Bing paid attention to her as soon as she entered the door.
Soon, Xu Bing came over, held the wine glass and said with a smile: "Mr. Shen, long time no see! You are still so radiant!"
Shen Menglan chuckled and said: "No, I think you, Mayor Xu, are getting younger and younger as you live." He paused and then changed the topic: "By the way, why are you and Secretary Chen here today?" He glanced at Hou Guanzhong and said, "Mr. Hou just said that at Chujiang's entrepreneurs' cocktail party, the leaders of Jingjiang came to join in the fun, weren't they taking over the guests?"
Xu Bing was stunned for a moment, and the embarrassment flashed across his face.
He turned to look at Hou Guanzhong and said with a smile: "I didn't expect Mr. Hou to be here too. Mr. Hou's return has given Chujiang's well-known entrepreneurs an extra seat!"
When Hou Guanzhong said this, there was no smile on his face.
Because the incident in Langzhou had just happened, and the bad things happened to the Hou brothers. He hated these two brothers to the core at this time. How could he have a good face?
Hou Guanzhong said with a smile on his face: "Mayor Xu, it's very hard for you to attract investment. You can see how hard it is to go from hundreds of miles away to Chucheng to attract investment. By the way, I heard that you are now out of Jingjiang. A policy is said to be said by you personally at an investment meeting. What is the original word?
It’s ‘if you have money, you’ll be a master’, right?
I'm just thinking about what you said. You say that we gay men are me. Although we are older, we don't care. But Mr. Shen is so young and beautiful, how can she be related to me?"
When Xu Bing heard what Hou Guanzhong said, his face turned dark on the spot.
He said this and was laughed at at the time. Later, Chen Jing educated cadres on many occasions and asked party members and cadres to have dignity. In fact, Chen Jing was wiping the butt of Xu Bing's remarks.
Because of these words, Xu Bing was embarrassed. At that time, he was having a heart-to-heart talk with the comrades of the China Merchants Bureau. Naturally, he meant by saying this was that he hoped that the comrades of the China Merchants Bureau would put down their official arrogance and take the initiative to contact capital.
However, there are always people in the officialdom who like to take quotes out of context and spread falsehoods, which is extremely annoying.
Now that Hou Guanzhong mentioned these words again on this occasion, how could Xu Bing not fall out?
He smiled coldly and said: "Mr. Hou, I respect entrepreneurs, but I also hope that you will pay attention to your words! Why are you so angry with me? Do you think that without you in Jingjiang, our development will not need to be carried out? It's really shameless. Face!"
Xu Bing obviously lost his composure. When Hou Guanzhong heard Xu Bing's words, his expression became even more disturbing.
He was born as a young man and had a bad temper. Besides, now that he has made some money, he has long considered himself a successful person.
What's more, there is a woman next to him now. How can Hou Guanzhong endure being embarrassed in front of a woman? (To be continued.
