For a moment, Hua Nianping felt that this man named Tan Qibiao looked very familiar. But after thinking nervously for a long time, he could not remember where he had met or dealt with him.
He even thought to himself, the Shanghai Folkden Company represented by Tan actually spent hundreds of thousands to sponsor an online competition of a student club. What is the motive? It is very puzzling?
What’s more, I didn’t expect that Vice Minister Lu of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee would actually come to Huaishang Market to award the competition results on the spot.
Hua Nianping asked Liu Changlin why he didn't know about such a large-scale and influential so-called god-making competition held at Enyuan College before.
Liu Changlin cleverly replied that during the preparations for the god-making activity, Hua Nianping and Huang Chunrong, the former executive deputy general manager, were busy leading personnel reforms and adjustments. Qiu Mingqing, the leader of the disciplinary supervision team in charge of this work at the time, issued instructions not to do this because of this
Small things like mass activities have affected the central work of the city.
During that personnel adjustment, Liu Changlin was transferred back to the Huaihe Municipal Government and continued to serve as his junior section chief. Recently, due to the repeated recommendation of the provincial leader Zhang Guizhi, he returned to the Enyuan Group and directly served as the working committee office.
Deputy Secretary General.
When dozens of bonfires had begun to be lit, Vice Minister Lu, accompanied by Tao Hailiang and another young woman, arrived at the scene a few minutes before the award ceremony began.
When Hua Nianping took the initiative to greet him, Vice Minister Lu briefly shook hands with him, and the host had already announced the start of the award ceremony.
The young woman was placed next to Hua Nianping.
She shook hands with Hua Nianping and introduced herself as Qiu Xiangya, who worked in a listed company.
According to the rules, for the five projects of original essay writing, youth dance, new music scene, game attack and defense, and online beauty pageant, the third prize, second prize, and first prize of the competition will be set. After receiving the award in turn, the highest achievement "Yu Pan Da Shen" will be announced.
Cup" winner.
Xiu Guozhi, a student whom Hua Nianping once knew well, won the title of "Master Writer" in the original essay competition. Representative Tan, one of the sponsors, presented the award.
The youth dance "Perak God" and the new singing star "Tianlai God" were won by students from colleges and universities outside the province, and were awarded by Qin Xinjia and Qiu Xiangya respectively.
What surprised Hua Nianping was that Hou Yiying, as a girl, actually won the title of "Magic Master" in game offense and defense. Tao Hailiang presented the award to her.
The next item was the online beauty pageant "Princess Master", which was selected from thousands of female students. It was won by Qiu Xiangni, a third-year female student from the Music Department of Huaishang Normal University. The award was presented by Vice Minister Lu personally.
When the winner of the "Yu Pan Great God Cup", the highest achievement, was announced from the five first-prize winners, all the students held their breath, not knowing who would win.
This is a huge bonus of 100,000 yuan!
When the host excitedly announced that Hou Yiying, who had won the title of "Magic Master" in game offense and defense, had become the winner of the "Yupan Master Cup", the audience burst into cheers.
What made everyone even more unexpected was that Hou Yiying actually announced in her acceptance speech that she would donate all the 100,000 yuan bonus she received to fund the activities of the "Yupan Forum" student club.
In addition to Hou Yiying's generous act, everyone was shocked at first, and then cheered. In addition to surprise and admiration, Hua Nianping also had another doubt. It was not the reason for Hou Yiying's dropout, but the family's continued treatment of her.
Is it no longer financially affordable to study?
The awards ceremony and program performance lasted nearly an hour.
Hua Nianping declined the invitation to go on stage to award awards due to health reasons.
It has been seven or eight years since he took up a leadership position, but he has never been willing to participate in ceremonial activities such as stage cutting and speeches in public.
This is obviously related to the disability in his legs, and he has developed an indescribable inferiority complex to avoid actively exposing his inherent physical defects.
What's more, when Hua Nianping was led to the VIP table by the concierge lady, a small accident happened that made him very embarrassed in public:
A student was holding a long pole of colorful flags. He was the leader of Equality in Hua Nianping. Before the guests could sit down, they could not help but burst out with passion, dancing the flags and cheering. The tip of the pole under the colorful flags happened to poke the crook of Hua Nianping's left leg.
He immediately lost his balance and jumped towards a concierge student in front of him.
The concierge lady's face turned pale and she just retreated in panic. If Hou Yiying hadn't followed closely behind him and quickly stepped forward to hug Hua Nianping, he might have been injured.
All this happened to be witnessed by the little representative Tan and the young woman named Qiu Xiangya.
The two of them looked at each other and couldn't help laughing, as if they understood each other tacitly.
It turns out that all people who have suffered from osteomyelitis and polio are like Hua Nianping. The disabled leg is very fragile, commonly known as rickets. As long as the bend of the leg is lightly touched, the body will fall down involuntarily.
After the award ceremony, the host announced the start of the bonfire dinner. Vice Minister Lu and others stood up and left the VIP seats, leaving Hua Nianping alone in the front row.
Liu Changlin trotted up to him and said breathlessly: General Manager Tao Hailiang's car is still waiting, urging Chairman Hua to rush to the Seven Degrees Hotel immediately.
At this time, Hua Nianping happened to see Hou Yiying and Xiu Guozhi walking towards him. He told Liu Changlin that he decided to stay and attend a bonfire dinner with the students.
Liu Changlin was in a daze, not knowing what to do.
He was obviously very unwilling to give up the rare opportunity to have dinner with the provincial leaders. It was not until Hua Nianping completely saw through his mind and waved his hand to allow him to leave that he left as if he had been granted amnesty.
"I wonder if Chairman Hua will regret what happened tonight one day?"
Hou Yiying was a little worried about her willfulness in the afternoon, and said to Hua Nianping: "Because Vice Minister Lu will eventually rise to a higher level unexpectedly. I hope he will not have opinions about you because of this trivial matter."
"I think probably not!" Hua Nianping used the two inaccurate words "probably" and "maybe" one after another, indicating that he was not very sure in his heart.
In the square, dozens of bonfires were burning.
Hou Yiying and Xiu Guozhi brought Hua Nianping to one of the bonfires, formed a circle with a dozen students on the floor, gave him a box of vegetables, and poured him a large glass of white wine.
"Let's all join together to celebrate the two master writers and the master of magic for winning the grand prize!" Hua Nianping raised his wine glass and said, "Cheers, classmates!"
"Cheers to Chairman Hua!" Hou Yiying and Xiu Guozhi shouted together.
"By the way, where is our great princess?" Hua Nianping was infected by the enthusiasm of the students, "Should everyone also congratulate her!"
"Princess God? It's just an informal decision. I'm afraid she will become a vase for those officials tonight!" A male classmate laughed loudly.
Seeing Hua Nianping frowning after hearing this, Hou Yiying hurriedly changed the subject and suggested that Hua Nianping, on behalf of the leadership of Enyuan Group, go to each bonfire and toast to all the students.
Hua Nianping readily agreed.
When the dozens of bonfires were all gone, Hua Nianping was already drunk. Hou Yiying carefully supported him, and the two slowly returned, chatting as they walked.
"Classmate Yiying, can I ask you something?" Hua Nianping wanted to take the opportunity to open up a doubt in his heart.
"Of course, Chairman Hua, feel free to say hello."
"How did you hear that Vice Minister Lu's job will be changed in the near future?"
"I can only tell you that the Ai family has its own channels for information." Hou Yiying smiled playfully in the darkness, "Actually, this is nothing. It is just a secret that has been made public by a certain circle in your provincial capital.
.”
"You said... our provincial capital? So, where are you from?" Hua Nianping asked.
"Like Chairman Hua, I am also from the capital!" Hou Yiying said with a smile.
"Capital?" Hua Nianping was surprised.
Hou Yiying said: "Yes, Beijing! I will leave Huaishang City soon. There are some things that I might as well tell Chairman Hua the truth now. For example, they are related to you."
