"He was still running the project in the Planning Commission yesterday, should he still be there?" Tao Yonghong said uncertainly.

Xu Shengjiao nodded, picked up the telephone on the table, called the secretary in, asked his secretary to call Lu Dingyi, and asked him to come over immediately if he was still in the provincial capital.

Lu Dingyi was not only in the provincial capital, but also in the provincial government, he received a call, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately rushed over, seeing Chen Yuqing and Tao Yonghong sitting in the office, he almost immediately understood what Xu Shengjiao asked him to come over.

"Comrade Ding Yi, are you in contact with the Korean Grand Quantum Group?" Xu Shengjiao didn't go around in circles with Lu Dingyi, and after letting him sit down, he stared into his eyes and asked.

Lu Dingyi sat upright, his attitude was very respectful, but there was a surprised expression on his face: "No, I only made a stop in Fushan in South Korea this time, and then transferred from Hancheng Airport, and I did not contact anyone from South Korea's Dakou Group. ”

"Mayor Lu, we will explain everything clearly in front of Governor Xu today. South Korea's Dazhou Group just held a press conference the day before yesterday, announcing that it would invest in Haizhou City, but yesterday a professional broker ran over to spread bad words about Haizhou City with the people of South Korea's Dazhou Group, saying that Haizhou City is not as good as Tongcheng, and that the joint venture shipbuilding project between South Korea's Daezhou Group and the American Tangsheng Group should invest in Tongcheng. If these professional brokers weren't sent by you Tongcheng people, which city would have sent them? Could it be that besides you Tongcheng, there are other cities that will help you Tongcheng do this kind of thing?" Chen Yuqing stared at Lu Dingyi and said very unceremoniously.

Usually, in officialdom, even if there is any contradiction between each other, everyone will be in harmony. However, Chen Yuqing was born as a cadre of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and his style has always been spicy, and female cadres also have some advantages in this regard, and many people are unwilling to face Chen Yuqing head-on.

"Mayor Chen, where do you start with this?" Lu Dingyi frowned, and suddenly seemed to think of something: "I can guarantee that we have never done such a thing in Tongcheng, could it be that I introduced the situation of Tongcheng when I was in South Korea a few days ago, so someone told the people of South Korea's Grand Capsuro Group about the situation of our Tongcheng?"

"Quipble!" Chen Yuqing's face turned pale with anger, if it weren't for her identity, and in front of Executive Vice Governor Xu Shengjiao, she would definitely point at Lu Dingyi's nose and reprimand the other party for being despicable and shameless. Now she could only stare at the other party and said sharply: "Mayor Lu, even if some people think that you are very good in the city, why do you still say that our Haizhou City is a small fishing village? This is simply slander!"

Lu Dingyi frowned: "No, Mayor Chen, where did you hear all this news?

He turned his head to look at Xu Shengjiao and said: "Governor Xu, I suspect that what Mayor Chen said is completely groundless, even if we want to compete with Haizhou City for this project and belittle Haizhou City, then it is impossible to say that Haizhou City is a small fishing village, because this is not consistent with the facts at all, and those Koreans are not stupid, just check the information casually." So this is enough to prove that this matter has nothing to do with our city. ”

Chen Yuqing sneered: "If you don't want people to know, unless you do it, this matter was personally called to us by the senior management of the American Tangsheng Group, and those professional brokers not only found the Korean Dazhou Group, but also the American Tangsheng Group. Lu Dingyi, I'm afraid you wouldn't have thought that the contact between the Tang Sheng Group and our Haizhou City has been so deep, right?"

Lu Dingyi frowned imperceptibly, he had also considered the relationship between the American Tangsheng Group and Haizhou City before, and even specially inquired about the inside line in Haizhou City, but he did not find any clues. The situation that Chen Yuqing said was obviously unexpected by him.

However, Lu Dingyi is not unprepared, after all, if he wants to cut off his beard halfway, he will definitely have to face the situation of news leakage. Now it seems that Wang Qiang's actions are still very fast.

Lu Dingyi shook his head and said, "Mayor Chen, I think you must have misunderstood. As I just said, if it were our people, even if we really wanted to belittle Haizhou City, we would not say that Haizhou City is a small fishing village. Also, I'm very skeptical of the source of this news. I think it is probably that some shipbuilding companies in Fukuyama know that South Korea's Dazhou Group wants to invest in Haizhou City, and they are very puzzled, and when they inquire about the situation with South Korea's Dazhou Group, they say some of the disadvantages of Haizhou City, and maybe they also say that they know about Tongcheng, but this has nothing to do with our Tongcheng side, and I am in the provincial capital these days, and it is even more impossible to do such a thing. ”

Chen Yuqing glared at Lu Dingyi angrily, Lu Dingyi not only did not admit that Tongcheng had done such a thing, but even questioned her statement. Chen Yuqing was very angry, but if she wanted her to come up with evidence, she really didn't have it in her hand for the time being, so she couldn't call someone from South Korea's Daewoo Group or the United States' Tangsheng Group to ask now, that would be a deliberate attempt to publicize the ugliness of her family.

Chen Yuqing was thinking in his heart about how to solve this problem.

Looking at Chen Yuqing, who was speechless, Lu Dingyi couldn't help but laugh in his heart, cadres like Chen Yuqing who came out of the Commission for Discipline Inspection are often too upright to be flexible. In fact, it is difficult to find evidence for this kind of thing, even if they can find out Wang Qiang, Tongcheng City can still push it all away.

"Tick Bell ......"

At this time, a phone on Xu Shengjiao's desk rang, Xu Shengjiao saw the phone ringing, and hurriedly made a silent gesture, then picked up the phone and said, "Secretary Wang, hello, I am Xu Shengjiao." ”

"Comrade Sheng Jiao, how is the investment project of South Korea's Dazhou Group Group?" Wang Hongfeng's voice was a little low, and he didn't seem to be very happy.

Xu Shengjiao was just about to speak, but he heard Wang Hongfeng continue: "I have just received a message from the commercial counselor of the embassy in South Korea, why did the two enterprises of the United States, Tangsheng Group and South Korea's Dazhou Group, send a letter to our embassy together to ask whether Haizhou City is a small fishing village? How did Haizhou City do it, and has this project really been decided as they said? How can a large investment project of 200 million US dollars make such a child's play?"

Xu Shengjiao was immediately taken aback by Wang Hongfeng's words, and the South Korean Grand Universe Group and the American Tang Sheng Group asked the embassy about the situation in Haizhou City, which seemed to be a trivial matter, and it was nothing. However, South Korea's Dazhou Group and the American Tangsheng Group actually asked whether Haizhou City was a small fishing village, and the situation was a bit strict. It is important to know that after receiving the news released at the press conference held by the South Korean Grand Capsuo Group and the American Tangsheng Group in Hancheng, the embassy in South Korea attaches great importance to this joint venture project in Haizhou City, and just today, the province has received a call from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation Commission, and other departments, asking them to provide detailed information about the project, and urging them to attach great importance to it and implement the project as much as possible.

Because the investment of 200 million US dollars is already the largest investment amount of a Korean company in a single project in China, in fact, even if only the investment quota of 100 million US dollars of South Korea's Dazhou Group is calculated, this project can still win the first place in the total investment of Korean enterprises in China. Therefore, this project is obviously of great significance to the economic exchanges between China and South Korea, which have just been established for less than a decade, which is why the commercial counselor of the embassy in South Korea is so concerned about this project.

However, now South Korea's Daezhou Group is asking whether Haizhou City is a small fishing village, which shows that South Korea's Daezhou Group does not seem to know much about the situation in Haizhou City, so it is very doubtful whether the investment project has been determined. Even if the project is real, this situation also means that the project may die.

The embassy in South Korea was also taken aback at that time, on the one hand, it introduced the situation in Haizhou City to the South Korean Grand Quantum Group and provided detailed and specific materials, and on the other hand, it also reported to the country as soon as possible.

Wang Hongfeng immediately thought that someone might deliberately slander Haizhou City in South Korea and want to snatch the project from Haizhou City. He also considered whether Tongcheng would do this, but he also felt that Tongcheng and Haizhou were in the same province, and the province had just emphasized that there could be no vicious competition, and Tongcheng should not be so unscrupulous. Therefore, Wang Hongfeng considered that it was likely that other places spread rumors about Haizhou City in South Korea and maliciously slandered Haizhou City, such as Qindao in Qilu and Ningcheng in Zhijiang. The investment of South Korean enterprises is mainly concentrated in the northeast, Qilu and other northern regions, and Samsung Heavy Industries has just invested in a shipyard in the Ningcheng area, but because the scale of investment in the shipyard of Samsung Heavy Industries is not large, including Ningcheng, these places have the motivation to grab projects with Haizhou City.

Wang Hongfeng called Xu Shengjiao to urge them to do their best to determine the Jiangbei Provincial Shipbuilding Company's participation in the project investment, and then try their best to negotiate with South Korea's Dazhou Group to sign the investment agreement as soon as possible and start the project construction, so as not to have too many dreams at night.

Xu Shengjiao glanced at Chen Yuqing, Lu Dingyi and the others opposite, Wang Hongfeng didn't know about the matter in front of him, so he suspected that places in other provinces such as Ningcheng and Qindao were making trouble. Xu Shengjiao knew that the matter of the embassy was the same thing as what Chen Yuqing said, and it was difficult for the city to get out of it.

Xu Shengjiao pondered the language for a while, and was about to speak, but saw the provincial governor Hong Ximing push the door and walk in, followed by Wang Futian, director of the Provincial Investment Promotion Department.

Xu Shengjiao hurriedly stood up and said, "Governor, why are you here, just call me if you have anything." ”

Hong Ximing glanced at Xu Shengjiao in his hand, but he didn't hang up the phone, usually if there is nothing important, Xu Shengjiao should put down the phone immediately, he didn't put it down, which means that the phone is very important. It could be that you are talking about something very important, or you may be talking on the phone with someone important.

Hong Ximing waved his hand and said: "Comrade Shengjiao, you can deal with something first, I heard that Comrade Yuqing from Haizhou City and Comrade Ding Yi from Tongcheng City are here, and I have something to ask them." ”

Xu Shengjiao reacted almost immediately, he hurriedly agreed, and then said into the microphone: "Secretary, Governor Hong is here, look ......"

Wang Hongfeng heard Hong Ximing's words clearly on the phone, and saw that since Hong Ximing was here to find Chen Yuqing and Lu Dingyi, he knew that Hong Ximing's purpose was the same as himself, and he came for the same thing.

"Then for the time being, Comrade Sheng Jiao, you will tell Comrade Ximing for me," Wang Hongfeng quickly instructed, "This joint venture shipbuilding project in Haizhou City is very important, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and foreign trade and economic cooperation are very concerned, there must be no mistakes, the province must speed up the progress of the work, and promote the project to be implemented as soon as possible." ”

"Is it Secretary Wang's phone?" Hearing Xu Shengjiao's words, Hong Ximing immediately knew that it was Wang Hongfeng who was talking to Xu Shengjiao on the phone just now, and what the two were talking about was probably the same thing as what he came to talk about.

Xu Shengjiao nodded, and said as he walked out from behind the desk: "Yes, Secretary Wang said that the embassy in South Korea received inquiries from South Korea's Grand Quantum Group and the American Tangsheng Company, and they asked about the situation in Haizhou City, and asked if Haizhou City was a small fishing village......

Lu Dingyi, who had been trying to keep a smile on his face, suddenly changed his face, he was still questioning Chen Yuqing's small fishing village just now that the statement was hearsay, and it may even be made up by himself, but now that the head of the provincial party committee has also called to inquire about this matter, it is obvious that this news will no longer be groundless, it must be true, and the matter also involves the embassy in South Korea. Diplomacy is never a trivial matter, and if it rises to a certain height, it will become a slander against the country's image.

Lu Dingyi suddenly had a bad feeling in his heart, but he was barely able to keep his composure, after all, he could completely deny that this matter had nothing to do with Tongcheng and him.

Hearing Xu Shengjiao's words, Hong Ximing's face darkened a little: "Is there such a thing? What else did Secretary Wang say?"

Xu Shengjiao hurriedly repeated what Wang Hongfeng had just explained: "Secretary Wang just called, and the others haven't had time to say yet, and some of the situations on my side haven't had time to report to Secretary Wang." ”

Chen Yuqing, Lu Dingyi and others had already stood up at this time, giving up the sofa position, and after Hong Ximing sat down, he beckoned Xu Shengjiao to sit down, and glanced at Chen Yuqing and the others with a majestic look: "Comrade Shengjiao, what is the matter with you here?"

Xu Shengjiao briefly explained what had just happened: "Mayor Chen of Haizhou City said that the senior management of the Tangsheng Group of the United States called them and said that there were professional brokers in South Korea who slandered Haizhou City in front of the South Korean Grand Universe Group and the American Tangsheng Group, and tried to get the two companies to invest in the joint venture shipbuilding project in Tongcheng. Mayor Lu of Tongcheng denied that Mayor Chen's source may not be reliable, perhaps groundless, or it may be that when he promoted Tongcheng in Fushan, some Korean entrepreneurs learned about Tongcheng through this channel, and expressed their optimistic views on Tongcheng to South Korea's Dazhou Group. ”

Hong Ximing laughed angrily: "Comrade Ding Yi's ability has always been very strong, and he can get foreign businessmen to take the initiative to help them attract investment, but Comrade Ding Yi went to Japan and South Korea for half a month this time, and finally negotiated several projects? ”

Lu Dingyi's bad feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger, and in the face of Hong Ximing's stern gaze, he reluctantly laughed, lowered his head in shame, and said: "Governor, you can criticize me fiercely, this time I went to South Korea and lived up to your ardent expectations......"

"No, you don't. How could you live up to my expectations?" Hong Ximing glanced at Lu Dingyi and shook his head slightly: "Your abilities and practices have far exceeded my expectations. Comrade Ding Yi, what you just said is that Mayor Yuqing's words are not worth taking. However, just now Secretary Wang received a call from the Economic Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the people of the Korean Grand Exoult Group Group came to our embassy in South Korea to ask if Haizhou City is a small fishing village.

Lu Dingyi lowered his head, and the cold sweat on his back flowed down his spine and groove, soaking the waistband of his pants, and he didn't dare to breathe.

"By the way, just now Wang Futian told me that their investment promotion department received a call from the senior management of Tangsheng Group in the United States, asking us what is going on in Jiangbei Province and why they Goldman Sachs Group has decided to invest in the Haizhou area, but people from other places in Jiangbei Province came to say that the Haizhou area they want to invest in is not good, and let them invest in the Tongcheng area. The senior management of Tangsheng Group said that Haizhou City and Tongcheng City both belong to Jiangbei Province, how can they be so viciously competitive, which makes them Tangsheng Group not only doubt what the real investment environment of Jiangbei Province is, but also consider whether they want to invest in our Jiangbei Province!

Hong Ximing really became angrier the more he talked. It's just that according to Hong Ximing's character, the more angry he is, the calmer his external attitude becomes. Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, Hong Ximing's face gradually relaxed, and his voice became softer, but Lu Dingyi, who was questioned one after another, was soaked with his entire back, and he couldn't even stand steadily, if he didn't hold on to the back of the chair with his hands, I was afraid that he would collapse to the ground on the spot.

South Korea's Grand Capulus Group and Goldman Sachs Group sent letters to the embassy in South Korea to inquire about the situation, and the senior management of the American Tangsheng Group even directly called the Provincial Investment Promotion Department to issue questions, and the American Tangsheng Group revealed the news to Haizhou City before the combination...... Linking all this information together, Lu Dingyi also roughly saw that this project was not something that he Lu Dingyi could pry, and the key to this was the American Tangsheng Group, and the American Tangsheng Group must have had a tacit understanding with Haizhou City for a long time, so it is no wonder that this joint venture project will choose Haizhou City instead of Tongcheng, but he Lu Dingyi does not know whether he is alive or dead, and he thinks that Tongcheng City will also be able to make a late strike this time like the previous South Korean Shanshui Company project.
