When the visitor saw Chu Tianqi, he strode in: "Mayor Chu, benefactor, I finally see you." ”

"Director Zhao, it's really fate!" Chu Tianqi stretched out his right hand.

The person who came held the other party's right hand with both hands and said excitedly: "Mayor Chu, I have been looking for you these days and want to express my gratitude in person." But if you look for it in the provincial capitals and in the cities, it will be ......"

Chu Tianqi smiled "haha" and interrupted the other party: "Director Zhao, you don't have to be polite. Then he pointed at Wang Hao, "This is Chairman Wang of the * City Haoyang Group." ”

The person who came let go of Chu Tianqi and stretched out his right hand to Wang Hao: "Chairman Wang, I'm very sorry for the interruption, please forgive me." ”

"So polite, understood. Wang Hao got up and shook hands with the other party.

"I am Zhao Hongtao, investment director of Hexi Kunpeng Investment Company, I have heard the name of Haoyang Group for a long time, and I am fortunate to see Chairman Wang today, so please take care of me. While speaking, Zhao Hongtao presented the other party with a business card.

Wang Hao took the business card and exchanged one with the other party.

"You may be seated. Chu Tianqi motioned for the guests to take their seats.

Wang and Zhao invited Mayor Chu to take a seat, and all three sat on the sofa.

Seeing Li Ziteng at the door, Zhao Hongtao hurriedly arched his hand: "Section Chief Li, I'm really sorry to make you embarrassed, Lao Zhao apologizes to you." As he spoke, he turned his head to Chu Tianqi, "Mayor Chu, just now Section Chief Li reminded you that you have a guest, but I saw that you were anxious, so I knocked on the door rashly, please forgive me." ”

Chu Tianqi smiled: "I'm nothing, as long as Wang Dong doesn't blame it." ”

Zhao Hongtao hurriedly surrendered his hand to Wang Hao.

Without waiting for the other party to speak, Wang Hao spoke first: "The guest is as he pleases, I don't dare to pick on it." I'm just very interested in this matter, I just heard Director Zhao say, Mayor Chu is your benefactor, if you don't mind, can you share it? Mayor Chu, is it okay?"

Chu Tianqi waved his hand: "What is there to say, it's not worth mentioning." Then he motioned to Li Ziteng, "Put the painting on the coffee table in my office, this is a child's mind." ”

Li Ziteng and Zhao Hongtao both looked at the piece of paper, and saw two dragons drawn on the paper, a black dragon and a white dragon, fighting like they were fighting. There is water and trees around the dragon, and there are three big characters - Shuanglong Valley, and there is a line of text in the lower right corner of the painting: dedicated to Uncle Chu, and at the bottom is the school, class, and name.

Li Ziteng put the painting in a paper tube and took it away.

Seeing that the door of the house was closed, Chu Tianqi was about to speak, but when he saw that the eyes of Wang and Zhao were staring at him, he couldn't help but wonder. immediately understood, one of them wanted to listen and the other wanted to speak, so they smiled and responded.

Seeing Mayor Chu's expression, Zhao Hongtao spoke: "At about two o'clock in the morning on August 23, I came out of the construction site to ......."

Zhao Hongtao told what happened that day, but in some places it was detailed, in some places it was brief, and in some places it was not mentioned at all. He described in detail how Mayor Chu was brave and how he saved himself from danger, and he told him very much about his own state, but he did not mention the cause and speculation of the incident.

"Oops, awesome, awesome. Wang Hao stretched out his thumb at Chu Tianqi and praised again and again.

Chu Tianqi smiled: "Two, you just know about this matter, don't mention it to others again, especially don't let the people in our unit know." Wouldn't it be too bad for me if they knew I could fight?"

"Understand, understand, resolutely keep it secret!" Zhao Hongtao and Wang Hao expressed their positions again and again.

Zhao Hongtao continued: "Mayor Chu, many people clearly saw the location where you got off the bus that day, and I also asked many people to look for you, and I found more than a dozen hotels nearby, why didn't I find you?"

"I lived near the Yanyun City Government, and after getting off the bus, I took a taxi away. Chu Tianqi said.

Zhao Hongtao said "oh": "No wonder." ”

"Do good deeds without leaving a name, amazing!" Wang Hao stretched out his thumb again. Then he turned to Zhao Hongtao, "Since your company has been in contact with the Chengkang Municipal Government several times, you haven't met Mayor Chu?"

Zhao Hongtao replied: "I am very optimistic about the project in Chengkang City, and it is also an investment decision I made, but I have not come to the specific negotiations. A few days ago, I was about to come, but I missed it because of something at home. Later, when I listened to the deputy's report, I accidentally saw the photos he took, one of which was a public notice board of the Chengkang City Government, with a photo of Mayor Chu on it. I was about to come to see Mayor Chu, and the chairman of the company sent me to the south to deal with the affairs of the branch, but I didn't make the trip again, and I only returned to the province last night.

Originally, I came to sign the contract today, and I was in a hurry to see my benefactor, so we set off early. Unbeknownst to him, there was a car accident on the highway, and we were stuck in traffic for more than an hour. When I got off the highway, there happened to be something wrong with the car navigation, so I asked Section Chief Li to meet us, the purpose was to meet the benefactor as soon as possible. ”

Wang Hao couldn't help but sigh: "This is all fate, strictly speaking, Mayor Chu is also the benefactor of our company." If he hadn't insisted on putting things right, not only would we not have gotten the project, but we would have had a reputation for being dishonest or incompetent. ”

Chu Tianqi also had to admit that it was indeed fate to be able to meet Wang Hao and Zhao Hongtao again, and to be able to cooperate with the two companies. Although he has been kept in the dark, Wang and Zhao came in person and tried their best to promote cooperation, which was somewhat mixed with some personal feelings with themselves. If there had been no previous chance encounters, if there had been no previous interactions, perhaps there would not have been this cooperation and meeting.

"Ding Dong", the phone rang.

Taking out his mobile phone, Chu Tianqi saw that Li Ziteng had sent a message with six words on it: The other family has also arrived. He groaned for a moment and replied with four words: to the meeting room.

Putting away the mobile phone, Chu Tianqi continued to talk with Wang and Zhao.

Not long after, Li Ziteng came with a woman. The woman looks like she is in her thirties, with a melon seed face, red phoenix eyes, delicate facial features, a tall figure, very good dress, and a good temperament.

Without waiting for Li Ziteng's introduction, the woman had already taken the lead in greeting: "Are you Mayor Chu?"

"I'm Chu Tianqi. Chu Tianqi responded with a smile.

"Thank you, Mayor Chu. The woman stretched out her slender right hand, "Thank you for upholding justice, thank you for giving us the opportunity to compete fairly!"

"It's too polite, the main thing is that your company has the competitive strength. Chu Tianqi responded and shook hands with the other party.

"Mayor Chu, I am the deputy general manager of Daya Real Estate Group in Hexi Province, my name is Xiao Ayi, please take care of me. As she spoke, the woman handed over a business card.

After taking the business card, Chu Tianqi couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart: he still wondered how the other party's name was "Auntie", but it turned out to be the same phonetic and different.

Chu Tianqi turned around and introduced Xiao Ayi to Wang Hao and Zhao Hongtao, and the three of them exchanged pleasantries.

The representatives of the three companies arrived, Chu Tianqi asked Li Ziteng to take care of it, and he went to the corridor and called Wang Yongxin.

The phone rang twice and it was passed, and Chu Tianqi said directly: "Mayor, the representatives of the three companies have arrived and are meeting in the room." ”

Wang Yongxin replied with a "yes": "I'll go over immediately, first have a simple courtesy meeting, and then go to Conference Room No. 1 at ten o'clock to sign a contract." As soon as the words fell, the voice stopped abruptly.

Chu Tianqi put away his phone and walked back to the house again.

Seeing the two men and one woman talking happily, Chu Tianqi couldn't help but secretly say: Two of the three companies are acquaintances, which is too coincidental. This matter must not be for outsiders, otherwise it is too easy to cause gossip, and if it is yourself, you will inevitably have to think more when you hear such a thing.

……

Chengkang Municipal Government, 6th Floor, Conference Room 1.

This conference room is mostly used for large government meetings, but today it has been arranged in the form of a contract.

On the rostrum at the front of the conference room, a large LED screen is erected against the wall, with a length of at least 20 meters and a height of 15 meters.

Two long red carpets stretched out on the floor of the conference room and reached the steps on either side of the podium, on which of course there was also a red carpet, and beautiful flower baskets were placed at equal intervals on both sides of the red carpet.

Under the background of festive music and brilliant lights, the whole conference room was full of joy and festive atmosphere. In particular, several reporters carrying "spears and cannons" on their shoulders have already taken place, indicating that a grand event will be held here.

Chen Jialiang, director of the government office, suddenly said loudly: "Everyone, pay attention, the leaders and VIPs are about to enter. After speaking, he walked quickly off the rostrum and walked towards the door of the conference room.

The ceremonial staff followed.

The music immediately changed to a march.

Everyone found that all the members of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee at home came, and several men and women with good temperament also walked in this ranks.

More than a dozen leaders and guests with ceremonial flowers on their chests all walked straight to the first row to take their seats, and Chu Tianqi, one of them, walked directly onto the rostrum, bowed to everyone first, and then went to the presiding platform.

The applause stopped, the music paused, and all eyes were on the stage.

Chu Tianqi smiled, glanced at the audience, and then said loudly: "Leaders, guests, ladies, gentlemen, friends, comrades: here today, we hold a signing ceremony between the Chengkang Municipal Government and the * City Haofang Real Estate Development Company, Hexi Kunpeng Investment Company, and Hexi Daya Real Estate Group Company. The leaders and guests attending today's ceremony had ......"

Listening to Chu Tianqi's presiding speech, many people were excited, and secretly said in their hearts: It's finally time to sign a contract.
