Xiao Chen's car was finally changed. As a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and executive deputy mayor of Langliu City, Xiao Chen's car was replaced by a Mitsubishi off-road vehicle, which was very common in the political axes of this period, and many officials of a certain level were such cars.

But Xiao Chen didn't like it very much. The reason for not liking it is very simple, and even in a way, it should never be for someone like him: he hates this car, especially the Mitsubishi brand.

His hatred was not the hatred of hatred for the sake of hatred of ordinary indignant youths, but because there was a stark contrast in this world that made him especially disgusted with this symbol.

The man's name was Brandt.

On a bleak day in 1970, Chancellor Brandt of the Federal Republic of Germany, who had just taken office, came to the monument to the Jews in Warsaw, Poland. During World War II, 2.5 million Jews in Poland were tortured in concentration camps in agony, despair, and eventually died helplessly. In the cold wind, the new Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany, 66-year-old Brandt, walked step by step to the tombstone of the victims, and under the eyes of the world, the heroic fighter against the Nazis in World War II made a move that shocked everyone: he, on his knees.

This move moved the Jews, it moved Poland, it moved the world, and people said: it was Brandt who knelt down, and Germany who stood up. After the Second World War, the Federal Republic of Germany began to pay huge reparations to the victims of German fascist persecution and their bereaved families, and the Ministry of Education made the fascist atrocities the center of history textbooks, emphasizing that "the key task is to educate the next generation" and that it is "our duty to prevent the recurrence of historical tragedies".

Germany, which has the courage to assume its historical responsibility, has returned to the bosom of Europe and to the world stage.

Instead of shifting the blame for the war to the Nazis, the Germans generally believed that the responsibility belonged to the entire German nation.

They also built a cemetery that shocked the world - the Jewish Memorial Forest - next to the Brandenburg Gate, the symbol of their homeland, and the Reichstag, the political center of Germany, in the center of Berlin. Walking in the forest of steles, although the tombstones were speechless, the hearts of everyone who walked by them were greatly shocked. After the rain, there are still crystal tears on the wall, as if it is the tears of the owner of the monument and the 7.48 million victims.

In the center of the capital of a country, under the leadership of this country, to build such a cemetery that condemns the history of this country, how open-minded it should be, and how difficult it is!

History has no beginning and no end; History is unforgivable, but history after history is being rewritten. The German nation is a nation that respects history, and no matter what storms and twists and turns it encounters, such a nation will overcome difficulties and forge ahead bravely.

China, as a victim and victor in World War II, sometimes should really envy the Jews, although they were persecuted, but they finally received sincere apologies and repentance from the Germans. What about Ben? Xiao Chen hopes that Ben can follow Germany's example, face up to history, and assume the responsibilities that should belong to him. He did not have the luxury of expecting Prime Minister Ben to kneel down in front of the Nanjing Massacre Monument, nor did he need to say that he himself would build a "Chinese Monument" in the center of Tokyo, but in his heart he just wanted the nation to admit this period of history and sincerely bow down to the nation that had been invaded and admit its mistakes. Is this a very difficult act compared to the audacity of the German nation?

But it turns out that it seems to be really difficult.

Therefore, it is even more difficult to make Xiao Chen like the products of this military industrial enterprise.

He really wanted to sell the car and change it to a Hongqi, but after thinking deeply, Xiao Chen gave up the idea. He is willing to force himself to sit in this Mitsubishi car - because at this time, he will especially hope that the Gedeon Richter Auto Parts Company he founded will really develop and become an enterprise that can make cars and make good cars for the country. He hopes that in the future, he can sit in the car produced by Jirui and travel to every inch of China.

He firmly believes that this day will come! ――

Langliu Airport was reopened after renovation last year. Today, the Langliu City Investment Promotion Group will fly from here to Jingjiang City, East Fujian Province, led by Xiao Chen, member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and Executive Vice Mayor, the whole group is expected to travel for a week to ten days, and the investment content is mainly to introduce the country's largest paper enterprise Anle Paper to set up a branch in Langliu, and there are several other projects, respectively, led by a deputy mayor and the director of the Municipal Investment Promotion Bureau.

Xiao Chen was accompanied by Vice Mayor Xu Wenchao, who was only ranked fourth among the seven vice mayors (not counting Xiao Chen's executive deputy mayor), but he had a good division of labor, and he assisted in the work of industry, transportation, labor and social security, employment and reemployment, electricity, postal services, communications, tobacco, salt, petrochemicals, production safety, traffic preparedness, and radio management. When Mayor Tianzhang held a meeting to divide labor, Xiao Chen felt that the division of labor of this Vice Mayor Xu was a little wrong with his ranking, but Xiao Chen did not know enough about the situation in the municipal axe, so he did not express any opinions.

After Hu Yuze became Xiao Chen's secretary a few days ago, Xiao Chen once vaguely mentioned this matter, Hu Yuze is worthy of being a person who has been working in the Municipal Party Committee Office and the Municipal Axe Office for many years, as soon as he heard Mayor Xiao's words, he immediately and vaguely told Xiao Chen that in fact, this Deputy Mayor Xu Wenchao is Secretary Yang's person.

In fact, Yang Haoyuan was originally the secretary of the municipal party committee from the position of mayor, and his influence on the municipal axe was originally very great, Xiao Chen knew in his heart that Secretary Yang was in the municipal axe, and there was definitely not only one deputy mayor Xu Wenchao who was his person, based on the performance of the past two years, I am afraid that there are still a lot of his descendants.

This time, Deputy Mayor Xu Wenchao's task is to assist Xiao Chen, and the word "assistance" is a very particular word in Huaxia, which means that you can express your opinion on something, but you don't have the right to decide, and you won't be responsible if you fail. For example, if the leader in charge is very trusted by the superior or has a very good background, but something goes wrong, then the comrade who is "responsible for assistance" may be used as a scapegoat.

Xu Wenchao's attitude towards Xiao Chen, even he himself was a little bad. On the one hand, he felt that Xiao Chen was young, and he was afraid that he was not able to do things well, and on the other hand, because of Xiao Chen's achievements in Dingqing District, he felt that he might still have some ability. On the other hand, he was also a little jealous of Xiao Chen, a secretary of the district party committee, who was directly promoted to executive deputy mayor, and took the position he had thought about for a long time at once, and he was really unwilling.

But at this time, he was laughing and chatting with Xiao Chen on the plane, and it seemed that the two were talking happily like friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.

Xu Wenchao nodded at the moment and said: "Yes, this time the investment is very important, we must strive for an investment of more than 100 million yuan, which is a big deal in our Langliu, and the municipal party committee also attaches great importance to it, and it is not allowed to be sloppy." ”

Xiao Chen nodded, Xu Wenchao's words were released, in fact, Mayor Zhang said when he told him that the situation that has now been negotiated is that Anle Paper will invest 200 million yuan to build a factory in Langliu, and the location will be set in the Gufeng Development Zone, and the site will be selected by Anle Paper in several plots of land that have been planned in the development zone.

The plane landed in Fucheng, the capital of Dongmin Province, and then took a luxury bus sent by Anle Paper to Jingjiang City.

Jingjiang City is a county-level city, managed by Licheng City, from ancient times in our country is a famous seaport, after the Ming and Qing dynasties population skyrocketed, sediment gradually silted, the port function declined, but Jingjiang people's development vision is in the forefront, a large number of Chinese well-known trademarks, well-known brands are from or settled here.

Shi Wenbo, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Anle Group, Xu Lianjie, President of Anle Group, and other senior executives received Xiao Chen, Executive Vice Mayor of Langliu City, and his delegation at the group headquarters.

Chairman Shi Wenbo is a little rich, and President Xu Lianjie is very clear, the two are very enthusiastic about Vice Mayor Xiao Chen's coming, and held a grand reception ceremony and welcome dinner for Vice Mayor Xiao Chen and his entourage at Jingjiang International Hotel, the best hotel in Jingjiang City.

At the dinner, Xiao Chen, Xu Wenchao and other leaders had a friendly and warm conversation with Chairman Shi Wenbo and President Xu Lianjie. During the conversation, Vice Mayor Xiao Chen mentioned that if Anle Group settles in Langliu, Langliu will repay Anle Group with the best environment, the greatest support and the most sincere service.

Chairman Shi Wenbo and President Xu Lianjie were surprised by the youth of Vice Mayor Xiao Chen, and then felt Xiao Chen's sincerity and ability in the following talks. Shi Wenbo and Xu Lianjie found that Xiao Chen had taken the initiative to take on all the problems they were worried about without waiting for them to raise them, and said that in the future, after Anle Paper settled in Langliu, all the troubles would be "handed over to the political axe", and they only needed to set up factories and develop with peace of mind.

Shi Wenbo and Xu Lianjie thanked the Langliu Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Axe for their love for Anle Group, and expressed strong investment interest and strong investment.

After the dinner, Xiao Chen and his entourage were arranged to stay at Jingjiang International Hotel, while Shi Wenbo and Xu Lianjie returned to the group headquarters, and the two met to discuss urgently.

"Lian Jie, what do you think?" Shi Wenbo looked at Xu Lianjie and asked.

Xu Lianjie groaned slightly, and said: "The sincerity of Langliu is still worthy of affirmation, and now the only thing I am worried about is that although the guarantee they gave is good, can it be done-especially, even if this municipal party committee municipal axe can do it, what about the next municipal party committee municipal axe?" ”

"Are you worried about the successive surnames of their policies?" Shi Wenbo asked.

Xu Lianjie nodded.

Shi Wenbo shook his head lightly: "At this point, I'm not particularly worried, as long as the company is successful, I think the local officials will not be so stupid, and they have to drive the financier away." ”

Xu Lianjie looked at him: "That means, you agreed?" ”

Shi Wenbo didn't answer directly, but asked: "Lian Jie, do you think that this Deputy Mayor Xiao is too young?" ”

Xu Lianjie understood what he meant, but he seemed to have some answers to the question: "You can mix it up in the pile of people at a young age, isn't it very powerful?" ”

Shi Wenbo smiled and nodded: "Of course." He touched the armrest of the chair and said thoughtfully: "I seem to have heard Deputy Secretary Di mention this Deputy Mayor Xiao Chen. ”

"Deputy Secretary Di? Deputy Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee? Xu Lianjie asked.

Shi Wenbo nodded and looked at Xu Lianjie: "This Deputy Mayor Xiao is probably the same kind of person as Secretary Di. ”

Xu Lianjie smiled slightly: "Well, I guessed it too." ”

Shi Wenbo thought a little and said, "Such a young deputy mayor surnamed Xiao...... Could it be the ...... of the one? ”

Xu Lianjie smiled slightly and asked, "Do you want him to be?" ”

Shi Wenbo said without hesitation: "Of course." If he is, then we can basically rest assured, at least during the time he is still in Langliu, Langliu City's support for us must be very strong. ”

"And what do you mean?" Xu Lianjie's smile became brighter and brighter.

"The same, the same." Shi Wenbo smiled: "Look at the situation, if he really has such sincerity, we just add a little more investment, I think it is also worth it." ”

Xu Lianjie nodded, stood up and said, "Okay, just right, I'll visit this Mayor Xiao first, and by the way, take a look at this Mayor Xiao's attitude and bottom line." ”

"Now?" Shi Wenbo was a little surprised.

"Just now, when we were leaving, this Mayor Xiao told me that he had some business ideas that he wanted to talk to me, and I said that I would visit him in the evening." Xu Lianjie said.

Shi Wenbo felt a little funny: "He still has some business ideas to talk to you?" He felt that Xiao Chen was really cute, he was an official and knew what business ideas! I also want to talk to Lian Jie, and I am not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue.

Xu Lianjie didn't think it was funny, but smiled and said: "I'm a hillbilly, I want culture but no culture, I want management experience and no management experience, and I don't understand anything when I enter this industry." Now I have some experience in groping around, but it should always be beneficial to listen to this top student of the Central Party School. ”

Shi Wenbo waved his hand: "Okay, you can go and see if the grandson of this Chinese economic treasurer has some ability, and I won't participate...... Entertaining these people is really not your average tire. ”

Xu Lianjie smiled: "Okay, then I'll go over first, you can rest." ”――

Xu Lianjie didn't know that Xiao Chen was annoyed at the moment.

As soon as he returned to the guest room just now, he heard the phone ringing, and when he picked it up, a charming female voice asked inside: "Sir, are you lonely, we provide the most gentle companionship, so that you can spend the most unforgettable and passionate night in your life......"

Bang dang!

Xiao Chen hung up the phone directly.

The coastal areas are indeed different from the mainland, and even the service industry is so leading. Xiao Chen smiled bitterly, but he didn't mean to pursue this matter.

But immediately the second call came in again, this time it was not as ambiguous as the previous time, but asked very bluntly and directly: "Sir, do you need a massage?" ”

Xiao Chen was a little speechless and asked, "Are you the boss lady?" ”

"That's right, you can just call me Xiao Chen." The female voice said.

Xiao Chen asked, "Oh, is there a regular massage?" I don't want other services. ”

“…… It's sick. The phone was cut off.

Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile.

He sat on the sofa, waiting for Xu Lianjie to come over, he believed that Xu Lianjie should come over after listening to his previous words, and the shrewd businessman would not let go of any opportunity.

But at this time, the phone in the room rang again, Xiao Chen was too lazy to answer this time, and pressed it into a hands-free button.

"Sir, isn't it lonely to sleep alone? ……”

Xiao Chen said: "I am from the public security, so you are not afraid that we will arrest you." ”

"What about the police? Tell you, all of our young ladies have been in there......" The young lady hung up the phone again.

Xiao Chen was a little speechless, this service industry is inevitably a little too developed, it has only been a long time since he came in, and he has answered three calls.

At this time, the doorbell rang, Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief, got up and went over to open the door, but he was stunned, a bewitching woman outside glanced at Xiao Chen, and said with a smile: "Sir, still don't let me in?" ”

Xiao Chen frowned slightly: "Who are you?" ”

The woman smiled: "Yo, didn't you call me to come, can you still not know who I am?" ”

Xiao Chen's face sank: "What's your name and what are you doing?" ”

The woman glanced at Xiao Chen and said with a smile: "Handsome guy, do you want to keep in touch?" Then I'll have to give it a try......"

Xiao Chen was completely sure that he was looking for the wrong person, and the identity of the other party was needless to say, but in this Jingjiang City, he had no intention of reporting, in fact, he always felt that this kind of thing could not only be blamed on the woman who was a young lady, if there was no lady, where would the young lady come from?

"You're looking for the wrong one, I didn't call you." Xiao Chen said coldly, and then he was about to close the door, he didn't dare to dwell on this kind of thing.

"Hey, hey—" The young lady stretched out her hand and stuck Xiao Chen's door by the door, and said hurriedly: "How could you find the wrong one?" I come here every day, 7016 is not who are you? ”

Xiao Chen looked at the door number, and it was written: 7016. Suddenly became even more popular, when did I want Miss, this is nonsense!

"I said, I didn't call you, you found the wrong one!" Xiao Chen's voice was a little louder.

The woman paused for a moment, took out a note and looked at it, frowned, and said, "Damn, this word is written, is it 7018?" ”

Xiao Chen was not happy, and he was about to close the door directly, but the woman blocked the door with a smile again.

Xiao Chen said angrily: "What about you? ”

The woman was not annoyed at all, and said with a smile: "Handsome guy, it doesn't matter if you're wrong, you're alone, right?" How lonely it is to come to Jingjiang alone, or I will accompany ......"

"I'm busy, and I'm not short of people to accompany me, please leave." Xiao Chen frowned and said coldly.

"Why are you talking so ruthlessly, it doesn't matter if you don't like me, we have a lot of sisters, what kind of handsome guy likes, I'll introduce it to you."

Xiao Chen took out his mobile phone and said, "If you don't leave, I'll call the police." ”

"Hey, hey, hey-" The woman was really taken aback at this time, she originally thought that Xiao Chen was just inexperienced and a little shy, but she didn't expect Xiao Chen to plan to come to the real thing, and hurriedly said: "Forget it, I'm leaving." ”

Xiao Chen was about to close the door, but he saw Xu Lianjie turn out of the side aisle, saw the woman leave, but as if he didn't see it at all, he said to Xiao Chen with a smile: "Xiao Shi has been waiting for a long time." ”
