Chen Feng called Karina several times in a row, but the other party turned off the phone, so he had to give up temporarily.

In the evening, all the members of the family got up and came out of their rooms to have dinner together. However, this time Wang Zhaoxiang was absent because he was going to go to the grassroots level in the western region today to inspect the situation. At the dinner table, Chen Yufeng informed everyone of the news, and also said with some emotion that the reason why Wang Zhaoxiang wanted to go to the grassroots level in the western region this time was that Chen Yufeng, the wife of the vice premier, played a lot of roles. She has been to the west once, and has an intuitive impression and feeling of the backward areas there, one word is "poor", two words are "very poor", and the life of the people there is summed up in one word is "bitter", and two words are summarized as "very bitter", people in the developed areas in the east have not seen it with their own eyes It is hard to believe, and when they have seen or seen these reports on the Internet that are rarely seen in the traditional media, they will definitely be surprised: "There is still such a backward place in my own country?" I believe that this is what most people think now, but in fact, there are still many such backward places in the west. At a time when people in those big cities are still worried about losing weight because they eat and drink a lot of fish and meat every day, the common people in these areas sometimes cannot even eat a full meal, and it is very difficult to achieve basic food and clothing in these backward areas in the west. In view of this, Chen Yufeng, of course, likes her husband to go to the field to have a look and investigate, hoping to come up with a better support policy as soon as possible, so that the people in these areas in the west can live a good life as much as possible. Although the so-called "large-scale development of the western region" began last year, so far the results have not been very good from the overall point of view.

As vice premier in charge of state agriculture, forestry, and water conservancy work, Wang Zhaoxiang has always been very concerned about the three rural issues since he took office, and has also attached great importance to those backward rural areas in the western region.

"Grandma, grandpa, how long are you going to stay this time?" Chen Feng asked casually.

Chen Yufeng replied: "I can't say for sure, it depends on the situation, it will probably take at least five or six days." This time, he planned to take a look at several backward provinces and cities in the western region. After a pause, Chen Yufeng said, "Xiaofeng, the children in the west are really miserable, and some places are even more bitter than when grandma was a child, grandma has an idea, and plans to find a place in the west to set up a branch of our Yuhua Foundation, so that we can vigorously develop our Yuhua's education and charity in the west, what do you think?"

Chen Feng nodded indifferently and said, "Grandma, this Yuhua Foundation and my parents are just hanging on to each other, and you will let the director, take charge of all the specific things." ”

Although Chen Feng's answer made Chen Yufeng very happy, he still said with a stern face: "Xiao Feng, I know that you and your parents trust grandma very much, but after all, the Yuhua Foundation is your money, and the foundation also has its own rules and regulations. ”

Zhao Xiaolan smiled and said: "Aunt Feng, we still can't believe you? Moreover, your idea is very good, open a Yuhua branch in the west, and help those out-of-school children faster and better nearby, this is a meritorious thing, of course we support it." ”

Chen Dayong also chimed in: "Yes, Aunt Feng, our whole family supports it." Xiaolan and I both suffered when we were children, and I know a little bit about the situation in the west, which is very bitter, probably more bitter than when we were children, and we should make great efforts to develop and catch up with the economic level of the east. ”

Chen Yufeng nodded very happily, turned to Chen Dayong and asked: "Dayong, you are now also a representative of private entrepreneurs in Xiuzhou, have you considered investing in the west to set up factories in the past?"

Chen Dayong was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a smile and said: " Last year, when the western region was opened, there were quite a few people in Xiuzhou who went to the west to investigate, but most of them took advantage of the prosperity and went home, and some people raised funds to build a commercial city there, but in the end they were insolvent and returned, but I heard that there were still many people who went there to open mines and chemical plants, and this made a lot of money, and some people wanted to ask me to set up a joint venture in the west to set up a mineral enterprise, but I knew that although there was a lot of profit, it was unreasonable money, so I did not agree. As for investing in other industries in the western region, I don't think the conditions are yet very ripe. ”

Chen Yufeng sighed softly when he heard this, and said with some understanding: "Now the strategy of 'large-scale development of the western region' has been decided, but we still follow the path of the beginning of our reform and opening up, and at the expense of the interests of the environment and future generations, wantonly exploit minerals and pollute the environment. ”

"Dad, I do know that there is a good investment project in the west. Chen Feng interjected, "The desertification process in the western region is becoming more and more strict, and the state and local governments are actively carrying out afforestation, and now the state has issued a very good policy to contract some wasteland and the Gobi Desert in the western region, and the contract period can be extended to 50 years, and inheritance and transfer can be allowed according to law." If this project is carried out in a big way, it will still be profitable in the long run, and it will be a good thing for the benefit of the country, the people and oneself. Xingwang Group or you can set up a special forestry company in the west to contract afforestation. ”

"Contracted afforestation?" Chen Dayong glanced at his son with some suspicion, after all, he only graduated from primary school, although he has seen a lot over the years, but his knowledge is still not very wide, and he is still a little skeptical about this investment project of contracted afforestation.

"Xiao Feng, this project is good. Chen Yufeng voted in favor and said, "Although the income cycle of this project is longer, the return rate is still very objective in the long run." In the western part of the country, the government almost all of them sell and give away half of the contract, and the price is very cheap, and if you invest a lot of money, there is still room for this price to fall. And this cost is not a large amount of money for you, I think you only need to invest five or six million, and the project will be very big. ”

Seeing that Chen Yufeng also agreed, and Chen Dayong trusted his son very much, he agreed: "Well, since Aunt Feng also supports you, then after I go back, I will find someone to understand, and if there is no accident, I will immediately go to the west to set up a forestry company." ”

Of course, Chen Dayong didn't attach much importance to this matter, although the five or six million was not a small amount of money, but it was really not a lot of money for Chen Dayong now, even if he lost, he should use the five or six million to do good deeds.

In his previous life, Chen Feng had seen a news report on contracting afforestation in the western region to get rich, and he was also a little yearning for this matter, so he hurriedly said: "Dad, grandma is right, this contracted afforestation is a long-term project, and it is basically impossible to make a profit in two or three years, but as long as a large area of forest grows up in the future, this income will be very objective." ”

Chen Dayong was convinced of his son's various views a few years ago, and of course the same is true for his son's advice. nodded and said, "I know, after Dad goes back, I will officially plan this investment project." ”

Chen Feng was satisfied with the change, and asked Chen Yufeng: "Grandma, has Yuhua started recruiting people now?"

Chen Yufeng said with a little embarrassment: "In the past few years, there has been an obvious shortage of manpower in the foundation, everyone has been busy, and even more so as I, the director, really don't have time to find someone, so let's wait for the next few days." ”

Chen Feng couldn't help frowning slightly when he heard this. Wang Meixue complained even more unceremoniously: "Grandma, Xiaofeng, the boss, said that he wanted you to hire someone, why are you still like this." You've been busy like this for months, getting up early every day, sometimes busier than your grandfather. ”

Chen Feng looked at the godgrandmother who was obviously a lot less than what he saw last time, and he couldn't bear it, and immediately said: "Grandma, if there are not enough people in the Yuhua Foundation, we should recruit a few new people earlier, if there are no people who are even recruiting, of course I won't let me, let me be the interviewer." ”

"Alright, alright, you two brothers and sisters are really right. Chen Yufeng said with a smile, "Grandma will wait for the recruitment notice tomorrow, and I will interview by myself." Xiao Feng, this is not to say that your ability is not good, but the Yuhua Foundation is not better than those profit-oriented companies, the first thing we recruit is to have love and patience, and this kind of work is generally not done by young people, and the older ones, when they see you, a minor interviewer, maybe turn around and leave. ”

"Okay, anyway, grandma, you better hire more people sooner. Only by having people can do more things, can we quickly expand the Yuhua Fund and help more people. Chen Feng emphasized.

"Of course Grandma understands this, you've already said it. Chen Yufeng pretended to be angry and said, "This time, grandma will definitely not delay." ”

Chen Feng and Wang Meixue had nothing to say.

A few people chatted for an hour or two while watching TV in the living room, and then asked Chen Feng, who was a junior of the junior characters, to perform a show each before returning to the room.

Chen Feng wanted to kiss Fangze of Red Leaves with a cheeky face today, but was told by Red Leaves that his period was coming, which immediately made Chen Feng depressed. After saving some time with the red leaves, I had to go back to the room early.

Turning on the turned off phone, the first one dialed Karina again.

This time, there was no more "the other party has turned off" prompt, and after a few rings, it was connected.

"Boss, I'm sorry, Ouyang Chong has already informed me about what you are looking for me today, but when I called you, you also turned off your phone, and you are not online......" Karina's voice was obviously a little hoarse, which made Chen Feng feel a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Karina...... Isn't it...... Your aunt has passed away?" Chen Feng asked with some hesitation.

There was silence on the other end of the phone, and then there was a faint sob: "Yes...... She died a dozen hours ago, and I wasn't with her at the time, my mom ...... My mother was so grief-stricken that she had a heart attack and fell into a coma...... I just came to my senses a few hours ago......"

Chen Feng sighed for a while when he heard this, and comforted: "Karina, please mourn and change, accompany your mother well in France, don't take care of the company's affairs for the time being, and arrange your aunt's future generations and take care of your mother with peace of mind." ”

Karina choked up slightly, "Thank you...... My aunt had already forgiven his son and grandson a few days before she died...... Moreover, I hope that the fallen leaves can return to their roots and bury the ashes in China, in fact...... This is also my grandfather's wish...... This time, I might have to trouble you again......"

Chen Feng heard that Lin Caihua actually forgave the unfilial son and unfilial grandson before he died, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart. In this way, the two juniors with wolf hearts and dogs actually got her understanding, and sure enough, blood is thicker than water. Hearing the meaning of Karina's words, Chen Feng certainly understood what she meant, and asked him to help fulfill her aunt's last wish. However, Chen Feng's whole family is now in Beijing, and he will go to Hong Kong in a few days, so he will not be able to return to Xiuzhou in a short time.

"Karina, don't talk about trouble, of course I want to help your aunt's last wish be fulfilled, but I'm in Beijing now, and I may not be able to go back to Xiuzhou in a short time, when will you come to Xiuzhou, you notify me, and I will specially arrange for our people from Xiuzhou to help." ”

"Okay, thank you. Karina thanked her and then diverted the subject, "Boss, the last mission you gave me was already explained before I returned to France. Your plan can still go smoothly. ”

"Okay, I'll rest assured that you'll do something. Chen Feng applauded and comforted again, "Karina, please also mourn and change, don't be too sad and hurt your body, your mother should also persuade her well, and people will not be able to come back to life." ”

Chen Feng said this, but Karina sobbed: "I'm sorry, I can't help it......" After a while, Karina continued to pick up the phone and said, "My mother is so pitiful, she has always loved my grandfather very much, and has always hoped to fulfill my grandfather's wish before he died, take good care of my aunt, but my aunt ...... Picked up by my mom back to France...... The condition suddenly deteriorated in less than half a year, and it was difficult to control it...... Then he passed away suddenly...... My mom blamed herself...... I didn't think I took good care of my aunt......"

I see, Chen Feng sighed in his heart.

"People are dead. Your mother will be able to give your aunt a good life and enjoy the joy of family life in these last months, and your grandfather's spirit in heaven must be very gratified. ”

"Well, thank you, I'll go and persuade my mother right away, she hasn't eaten for a day since she came to her senses......"

It's really hard to read a scripture in every family, and Karina, the "financial czaress", is now at a loss by her mother.

After Chen Feng said a few more words of comfort, he hung up the phone.

As soon as he hung up Karina's phone, Cheng Wei immediately called, and the opening sentence was a series of complaints: "My most beloved boss, why don't you turn on the phone all day long? ”

Chen Feng was just a little upset by the changes in Karina's family, and when he heard his rambling words, he immediately said unceremoniously: "Okay, why are you talking so much nonsense? Let's get down to business." Is the interview over and the money is over?"

"Hehe, boss, with me Cheng Wei out of the horse, of course I can catch it. Cheng Wei said very proudly, "The interview is completed, according to what you said, I will accept "Asian Entertainment" with Ling Xiao, Wen Kebang, and Wang Hongbin The interview of the weekly magazine, it took us about two hours, and it was completed, the reporter was quite acquainted, and did not ask many sensitive questions, after the interview, the four of us listened to the whole recorded voice again, and did not find anything inappropriate, and the reporter also talked and gave us four people a reward of 50,000 yuan, and also said that if it was possible, he hoped that the four of us could cooperate with him for a long time. ”

Chen Feng generally didn't have a good impression of these entertainment reporters, and couldn't help sneering: "He has a good calculation, you kid probably doesn't know that after his interview is published, it will definitely be reprinted by countless media in the world, and he will soon be upgraded to a famous name." Compared to the 50,000 yuan for the four of you, this price is really cheap, and it can't be cheaper. This time, if it weren't for the coincidence, I wouldn't have agreed, and I would have let you go for an interview with him. ”

Cheng Wei was still elated and proud, but when he heard Chen Feng say this, he couldn't help but regret it.

"Boss, you didn't say it earlier, if you knew it earlier, we would have waited for a few more days, and when the other people's prices reached the highest, we would be interviewed. ”

Chen Feng explained: "I was afraid that someone would not be able to bear it, so I was interviewed for a thousand yuan. Therefore, at the beginning, the price of 50,000 yuan for the four of you was not bad. However, after the report of this issue of "Asian Entertainment" comes out, in the future, the four of you will become celebrities, and the price of this celebrity's interview will naturally rise. Remember, the low price of your interview in the future is 100,000 yuan, the more the merrier. ”

100,000 yuan! Cheng Wei secretly screamed excitedly in his heart.

"Boss, I will definitely keep in mind the instructions and resolutely follow you. ”

"Okay, if there's nothing else to do, I'll hang up. Chen Feng was going to call Adams.

Cheng Wei hurriedly said: "Boss, don't hang up yet, I got a message that our beautiful head teacher is going to get engaged, you see, should we send a representative to support our class when it arrives." ”

"Are you mistaken?, why did our head teacher suddenly want to get engaged?" Chen Feng asked a little inexplicably. The day before yesterday, Su Yan also talked to him on the phone, half-jokingly wanting to come to Beijing to play together. What's more, Chen Feng also knew that after experiencing the "attempted rape" incident a few months ago, she must have a shadow in her heart, how could she consider marriage in a short period of time?
