Chapter 104: Finding Foreign Help
Gong Jian rubbed his hair irritably, and he saw an old fountain pen on the desk, which was a birthday gift from his father when he was in elementary school.
He slowly picked up the pen and rubbed it carefully, he couldn't just be defeated by difficulties, his father often taught him to persevere in doing one thing and stick to his original intention.
Gong Jian thought about what else he could do now. Suddenly, he stopped fumbling with the pen, and he thought of someone who might help him.
Su Lao, Su Lao is an old friend of his parents, and when his parents were alive a few years ago, he often came to his house as a guest. Su Lao has a wide range of friends and is also a well-known figure in City A.
Thinking of this, Gong Jian hurriedly picked up the phone and dialed the number of Su's hometown.
The phone was connected, and it was the voice of a middle-aged woman. When she heard Gong Jian looking for Su Lao, the woman couldn't help but be surprised and said, "You are really amazing, Su Lao just entered the house five minutes ago." You're not guarding the reporters outside, are you?
Gong Jian was a little strange, why was Su Lao still guarding the reporter at the door? He hurriedly introduced himself: "I am Gong Jian, the son of Gong Zhiyuan, and my father is friends with Su Lao.
When the middle-aged lady heard Gong Jian's answer, she said to him with confidence: "Wait a minute, I'll go to Su Lao to answer the phone." β
Gong Jian heard her put down the microphone, and was still muttering: "This is too coincidental, Su Lao has been out for a month, and as soon as he came back, someone was actually looking for him." But even I didn't know that Su Lao was back today. β
Gong Jian heard the other party's muttering, he stretched out his hand to look at his palm, as if he saw the Qianqianyu hand again, looked along her white arm, and he seemed to see Xiaoya's gentle smile again.
was able to find Su Lao so easily, thanks to the lucky blessing of the goddess.
Soon, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Is it Xiao Gongjian, you haven't contacted me for a long time, how are you doing now?"
Gong Jian felt a little moist in his eyes, since his parents passed away, he tried to avoid contacting these elders, he was afraid that through them, he would constantly think of his parents.
"Su Lao, I'm fine. β
Su Lao didn't believe his words: "Xiao Gong Jian is still like this. You called me, something must have happened and I needed help. Say it, I'll help you. You're always so strong as a kid. β
Gong Jian was a little moved, these elders who watched him grow up, in their eyes, he would always be the child who didn't grow up. When they need their help, they always do it.
"That's right, Su Laoγγγγγ Gong Jian briefly recounted the incident to Su Lao, "Take a look, can you introduce me to meet with the mayor." β
Gong Jian felt that Vice Mayor Chen's path would not work, so let's see if he could put a little pressure on Vice Mayor Chen before the mayor left office and let him change his original intention.
Of course, this move is very risky, and Gong Jian does not know the temperament of the mayor, but as far as the current situation is concerned, there is only one way to go.
Su Lao muttered on the other end of the phone for a long time, only to hear his voice ring: "This matter is not easy to handle." Gong Jian, you may not know that the current mayor and Vice Mayor Chen have been subordinate for many years. At that time, the position of Vice Mayor Chen was directly promoted by the mayor. β
Listening to Su Lao's words, Gong Jian's heart chuckled. Su Lao knows the leadership relationship of City A better than him, and he said such things, which means that the mayor is firmly on the side of Vice Mayor Chen.
Gong Jian had to ask Su Lao again, "Then look at my matter, is there a turning point? Who still has the energy in City A to make Vice Mayor Chen change his mind." β
Su Lao was also a little depressed, Gong Jian rarely encountered difficulties to find his help, but the reality was not optimistic
He continued to tell Gong Jian about the relationship between the mayor and Vice Mayor Chen, who was promoted this time and was going to be transferred to the province. But before he left office, he made it clear that he supported Vice Mayor Chen's willingness to take over his mayoral position.
So a few months ago, there were rumors in City A that Vice Mayor Chen was going to be promoted to take over as mayor.
After talking about the relationship between the two, Su Lao continued: "In your current situation, if you find the mayor, or Vice Mayor Chen, the communication is a result. But Xiao Gongjian, I want to ask you, how did you offend this Vice Mayor Chen?"
Gong Jian was also puzzled about this question, "I don't know the root cause of this, except for the fact that I have met Chen Jiao a few times, I have not contacted Vice Mayor Chen." β
Chen Jiao and Su Lao knew this girl, he was the arrogant daughter of Vice Mayor Chen. Although she has not been in direct contact, the girl's reputation in the circle is not small.
Su Lao pondered and said, "You won't have a boyfriend and girlfriend with her daughter, right?"
Gong Jian cried and laughed a little: "No, no, how is it possible." β
This time, it was Su Lao's turn to be puzzled, "Then how much enmity this little girl has with you, so much so that Vice Mayor Chen will suppress you because of her." Although there are still several deputy mayors in City A, their energy is far less than that of Vice Mayor Chen. Not to mention that he is about to take over as mayor, and no one wants to offend him now. β
For a while, both of them were silent on the phone, Su Lao was thinking about finding someone to help Gong Jian, and Gong Jian himself was a little depressed. Suddenly, he remembered what the middle-aged lady who had just answered the phone was talking to himself.
"Su Lao, don't worry about me for now, how are you doing lately? Why did I hear that you just came back from out of town? And the reporter is guarding the door, what is it for?"
Gong Jian decided not to think about his predicament first, but to care about this elder who loved him.
Su Lao's train of thought was interrupted, and when he heard Gong Jian's question, he paused and quickly replied perfunctorily, "It's okay, it's okay, I'm all right here." The journalist is... Recently, they wanted to invite me to the last show, and I didn't have time. β
Then Su Lao changed his words, but wanted to end the conversation as soon as possible, "Gong Jian, I haven't thought of anyone who can help you with this matter, I suggest you go to Chen Jiao and communicate with her, if it's not a big grievance, it's best for you young people to solve it directly, and then let her help you persuade Vice Mayor Chen." I'm also thinking about it for you, and if there's any good way, I'll contact you. β
Putting down Su Lao's phone, Gong Jian felt even heavier in his heart. How could Chen Jiao help herself, maybe she suppressed herself, this idea was put forward by Chen Jiao.
Gong Jian had a headache, but he couldn't help but be a little worried about Su Lao's recent situation, he always felt that Su Lao had something to hide from him, and he didn't want to worry about him.
