Looking at Li Dingshan, who had been frowning and not saying a word, Xia Xiang felt uneasy in his heart, wondering if he had made the right bet this time. According to his understanding of Li Dingshan, although Li Dingshan is conceited and wants to save face, sometimes he has the wisdom to read people and can listen to different opinions, otherwise he would not have mixed into a middle-level position in a state-level newspaper and was sent to Yan Province to serve as the head of the reporter station.

The salary and treatment of the head of a provincial reporter station are much higher than that of the director of the newspaper office, and he also has great power, and it can be said that he is very popular in the local area where he is stationed. After all, Li Dingshan's newspaper is a state-level newspaper with a proper reputation, and although it does not have the power to supervise local politics than a powerful organization like Xinhua News Agency, which state-level newspaper does not have the means to penetrate the sky? Moreover, the power of public opinion is also very strong, Li Dingshan has a wide range of contacts, and there are many media peers in the capital and provincial capitals, so it can be said that he is also a quite influential figure in the circle.

It's a pity that Li Dingshan, as a literati, has no outstanding talent in running a business, so although he has the ability to come to a starting capital of 1 million, he has no ability to make the company bigger and better.

The reason why Song Chaodu spared no effort to let Li Dingshan enter politics and promised him the position of secretary of the county party committee was because he and Li Dingshan were classmates, and secondly, he also valued Li Dingshan's influence in the media circle. Xia thought clearly, Song Chaodu should have known that he was going to lose his position as a member of the Standing Committee, and wanted to arrange a good position for Li Dingshan before he lost power, but he also had other ideas, in case he stepped down, there would be no chance of a comeback, as long as Li Dingshan was on stage, he would always take care of him.

Li Dingshan is a nostalgic person, although sometimes he can't help but be a little bookish, but on the whole, he is a qualified friend. However, Xia Xiang knew that as soon as Song Chaodu proposed to let Li Dingshan give up the company in his hand, let him operate it, and transfer him to the suburban county of the provincial capital to serve as the secretary of the county party committee, Li Dingshan refused outright, and there was no room for negotiation. Li Dingshan's answer was that he had to get up from where he fell, and he couldn't let others look down on him, and he couldn't let people from the newspaper point at his back and scold him for not planting, scolding him for not being a man, running away if he failed, and not being treated.

In the past, although Xia Xiang was silent and said little, he and Jia He had a very good temper, and the two often drank together, and over time, they learned a lot of things about Li Dingshan from Jia He's mouth.

It is precisely because Li Dingshan wants to save face, is unwilling to bow his head in front of his classmates and admit defeat, and is even more unwilling to let others think that he is a high-ranking and powerful Song Chaodu, so he has not had much contact with Song Chaodu, but often meets with several classmates in the Yanshi Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Axe. In addition to not wanting Song Chaodu to feel that he has something to ask for him, I am afraid that deep down, Li Dingshan has always been unwilling to admit that he is inferior to Song Chaodu, so not long ago, as soon as Song Chaodu said that he would be the secretary of the county party committee in the suburbs, he refused without hesitation, as if he had suffered a great humiliation.

Li Dingshan, as the head of the reporter station of the state-level newspaper in the province, has personnel relations in Yan Province, and he himself is also a department-level cadre, which is a lot worse than Song Chaodu's deputy provincial level, not to mention that Song Chaodu is a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and as soon as he holds the title of Standing Committee, he is the leader of the Provincial Party Committee. But Song Chaodu has always been polite to him, not only because the two had a good relationship when they were in school, but also because of the media power behind Li Dingshan.

Li Dingshan always thought that Song Chaodu wanted to move him and let him join the company was a secret, he never said it in the company, and he didn't want to hear Xia Xiang implicitly say a different idea, which suddenly surprised him, and wondered if Xia Xiang also knew what Song Chaodu was secretly doing? It's impossible, Xia Xiang is honest and dull, and he is very timid, how did he change a person today, first analyzed the market prospects of the LCD large screen, and said it to the truth, and pointed out that Li Kailin was going to be transferred, and finally persuaded him to stop in time and give up the company......

Li Dingshan raised his head suddenly, his eyes were warm, he looked directly at Xia Xiang, and asked, "Xia Xiang, do you know Song Chaodu?" As soon as the words came out, Li Dingshan regretted a little, Xia Xiang was just a college student who had just graduated, and he had no relatives and no reason in Yan City, how could he know the dignified secretary general of the provincial party committee?

Sure enough, Xia Xiang shook his head and said: "How can I know Secretary-General Song, heh, compared with others, it is 108,000 miles behind, but I heard Mr. Li say that Secretary-General Song and Mr. Li have a good relationship, so I paid attention to it, just now Secretary-General Song called, let me tell you, let you take the time to call him back." ”

Li Dingshan saw that Xia wanted to sit up straight, his eyes did not dodge, and he met his gaze without fear, and he was inexplicably stunned in his heart, and then shook his head and smiled: "That's it...... Xiao Xia, what you just said also makes sense, I will think about it. I heard that you are alone in Yan City, where do you go to play after work? ”

Xia Xiang couldn't tell from Li Dingshan's expression whether he was moved, knowing that it was not easy to persuade Li Dingshan, it was not a matter of a few words, seeing that he changed the topic, he followed his words: "Yes, you are free and easy, find a random place to eat after work, and then read a book or something, and there is no activity." ”

"Young people, participate in more social activities and make more friends. I'll have dinner with Governor Li in the evening, if you're okay, let's go together!" ”

To be honest, Xia Xiang didn't want to eat with Li Kailin, because twice Li Dingshan invited Li Kailin to dinner, he went to accompany him, but Li Kailin was drunk and crazy, so he forced Xia Xiang to drink. At that time, Xia Xiang was still a shy college student, and the amount of alcohol was small, and he turned over the river and the sea after a few glasses of wine, which was uncomfortable. Li Kailin didn't give up, he didn't force Xia Xiang to drink again, and said that if he didn't drink, he looked down on him for being uneducated, and he was a college student, Xia Xiang was also young and vigorous at the time, but he didn't drink, and finally broke up with Li Kailin.

Li Kailin didn't know why, but he was a little uncomfortable with Xia Xiang, and he was embarrassed with Xia Xiang everywhere.

Another time, Li Dingshan asked Li Kailin to sing and called three young ladies. Xia Xiang had just fallen out of love, he was honest when he was in college, he had never experienced the occasion of the wind and the moon, he sat there cramped and restless, held by the young lady's arms, squeezed by the young lady's plump breasts, his face was flushed, and he was at a loss, and was laughed at by Li Kailin, saying that he was a straw bag, and he was even afraid of a woman. Xia Xiang dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, so he had to suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart, after all, Li Kailin was the company's god of wealth, and he couldn't bear to let him, and Li Dingshan would not agree.

Fortunately, Li Dingshan was protective, although he didn't like Xia Xiang's honest friendship, he didn't follow Li Kailin's advice and expelled Xia Xiang. However, after these two incidents, Xia Xiang tried his best to avoid sitting with Li Kailin, because as soon as the two met, Li Kailin's eyes would light up, and he said in a weird manner: "Yo, college student, why don't you call two more young ladies to accompany you today?" ”

"Okay, I'll wait downstairs, just call me when Mr. Li leaves." Xia Xiang agreed, he wanted to see what Li Kailin was deliberately hiding from Li Dingshan, what kind of heart he was pressing.

Li Dingshan originally just asked casually, also because he really had no one to accompany him, so he asked with the attitude of giving it a try, and originally did not expect Xia Xiang to agree with Li Kailin, because although he is the CEO of the company, he also knows in his heart that the current company is already panicking, and his subordinates have long since stopped taking him as the boss seriously, and they don't take it seriously.

I didn't want Xia Xiang to respond in one bite, and his expression was calm, without a trace of evasion and dodging, which made Li Dingshan secretly puzzled, why all of a sudden, Xia Xiang seemed to be much more mature and calm? Thinking of Xia Xiang's analysis and answer just now, a thought suddenly flashed in his heart, could it be that Xia Xiang had been hiding it before? Now is the time when he is the most depressed, Xia Xiang not only did not seek another career like others, but also stayed to solve problems for him, it seems that he is a usable person.

Back downstairs, Xia wanted to look at his watch, it was only four o'clock in the afternoon, and there were still two hours before he got off work. He looked up at the window, and he didn't know when the rain stopped, and above the western sky, the sky was full of red glow, which was very beautiful. Xia Xiang was stunned for a long time, his heart fluctuated, and his heart was full of excitement and joy when he remembered that he had been reborn once.

If you could do it all over again...... I have never had this kind of unrealistic dream before, and I often talk to my friends after drinking, saying that if he can live again, how to seize the opportunity, how to make a lot of money and how to achieve a career, I didn't expect to be really reborn 12 years ago, everything is so real and so confused, and the step in front of me is right or wrong?

Rebirth is rebirth, although we know the general trend of history, but for a person's choice and the direction of each step of life, no one can grasp the slightest, or to try to move forward, in the groping to find the direction. Xia Xiang shook his head, sighed, and was about to sit back in his seat, when he suddenly heard someone behind him speak: "Xia Xiang, what are you doing sighing?" Was it dumped by his girlfriend? ”
