Leaving the hospital, Chen Xing asked Li Yong to drive faster, this time is almost up, it is estimated that he will inevitably be late, and he doesn't know who the leaders are attending the celebration banquet today, the relationship between Governor Shun Baolai and Song Zhengming is so good, I don't know if he will attend, Chen Xing pondered in his heart, if there are leaders in the province who attend, and the provincial leaders have arrived, he, the mayor, will be late, and it is inevitable that he will leave a bad impression.

It's almost time, Chen Xing hasn't arrived for a long time, sure enough, Song Zhengming's phone call came at once, Chen Xing explained with a wry smile that he had encountered a little urgency, delayed a little time, and was on the way to the hotel, so he could only explain to Song Zhengming like this.

Song Zhengming didn't say anything, and when he heard that Chen Xing was on the way, he hung up the phone happily.

After Chen Xing arrived at the hotel, he knew that not only the governor Shun Bao had arrived, but also the executive vice governor Guan Zhenming, and the secretary of the municipal party committee Ge Jianming was also present.

Chen Xing secretly said in his heart that Song Zhengming's face was indeed big enough, and he didn't dare to hesitate for a moment, and walked forward quickly.

"Brother Chen Xing is here, come here, come here, I was just telling Governor Bora that I can get the approval this time, thanks to your great help, if you want to reward your merits, Brother Chen Xing also has to be first-class meritorious." When Song Zhengming saw Chen Xing arrive, he immediately waved at Chen Xing, and said it in front of Chen Xing, and he did not hide his closeness to Chen Xing between his words, he actually had a mirror on the political situation in the province and the city, but he didn't care about some taboos.

After Song Zhengming finished speaking, Shun Baolai didn't have too much smile on his face, just smiled faintly, glanced at Chen Xing, and said, "Comrade Chen Xing has worked in Beijing, and has advantages that others do not have, so he should give full play to his strengths. ”

"Governor Shun praised it falsely, I just did my best, and I can't talk about any advantages and strengths." Chen Xing said quietly, smiling coldly in his heart, Shun Baolai was lukewarm to him, and wanted to squeeze more benefits from him, how could he obediently obey the other party's wishes.

"Comrade Chen Xing, you are too modest." Guan Zhenming next to him said with a smile.

Chen Xing also smiled at Guan Zhenming, too lazy to answer anything, the other party and Shun Baolai were wearing the same pants.

Shun Bao looked at the calm and confident smile on Chen Xing's face, and felt a little unhappy for no reason, recently the senior management of Sinopec has been in contact with him, for the petrochemical industry strategy of Nanhai Province, the senior leaders of Sinopec have also put forward some suggestions, thinking that the expansion and development of the petrochemical industry cluster in Nanhai Province on the basis of the petrochemical industry zone in Nanzhou City is more in line with the petrochemical strategic layout of the province, Shun Baolai does not know if this is Chen Xingtong guò other relations invited lobbyists, but his perception of Chen Xing is not too good, Wang Zheng also came to the South China Sea, and Shun Baolai hoped that the two young people could have more fierce competition.

Shun Baolai is a person who is very deep in the city after all, he will not let his personal feelings show the slightest, and when he reaches the level of a cadre, he will not affect himself because of his personal feelings for a while, and the slight unhappiness in his heart will soon be suppressed by him and disappear.

It seems that he is waiting for Chen Xing to come over, and after Chen Xing arrives, Song Zhengming, the host, asked people to announce the start of the celebration banquet, and asked Shun Bao to come up and say a few words.

In the following time, Song Zhengming, who is in his fifties, is like a young man in his twenties tonight, full of spring breeze, and he does not refuse to drink, and he is not worried that he will be too old to bear it.

Shun Baolai left first after having a drink with Song Zhengming, he can come tonight, giving Song Zhengming enough face, and will not stay until the end of the banquet, Guan Zhenming and Shun Baolai left together, Song Zhengming sent the two downstairs, and then returned.

Ge Jianming didn't mean to stay longer, he didn't want to be with Shun Baolai and Guan Zhenming, and when the two of them walked for a few minutes, Ge Jianming also got up to say goodbye, Song Zhengming could only say goodbye in person, Ge Jianming smiled and asked Song Zhengming to stay.

Except for Chen Xing, several heavyweight leaders left, Chen Xing was not in a hurry at all, and continued to sit down and drink and chat with Song Zhengming, anyway, he was fine tonight, the others left early, and it was good to talk about private matters between him and Song Zhengming.

"Mr. Song, this Nangang has 30 billion all of a sudden, isn't it time to change the shotgun?" Chen Xing said with a smile.

"Brother Chen Xing, don't say it, for a big steel mill like us, 30 billion is not spent, it looks like a lot, but it will be gone." Song Zhengming laughed.

"In any case, this is the investment in the central budget, 30 billion, not much, not much, at least the province can not take out this fund to support the development of Nanjing Iron and Steel alone, to get the central financial investment, is already a great thing." Chen Xing said.

"Well, it is precisely because of this that we are worthy of joy, we Nangang, we have been looking forward to this approval for too long." Song Zhengming said with emotion.

"Mr. Song, I don't think I'm looking forward to this approval, I'm looking forward to spending this money." Chen Xing teased.

"Okay, you brother Chen Xing, you can't talk nonsense." Song Zhengming, who had drunk a lot of wine, laughed, his mood couldn't be better, and he didn't care about Chen Xing's words.

"Okay, then I won't talk nonsense, Mr. Song, let's have another drink." Chen Xing said with a smile, his words are also a joke, improving production capacity and quality is of great significance to a steel company, Nangang gets this money, but it will not be squandered, and Chen Xing also has some understanding of Song Zhengming's personality.

The two didn't know how much they drank, and there were also middle-level managers of Nangang on the other wine tables to toast Song Zhengming, Song Zhengming couldn't drink anymore, and didn't dare to let go of the drink, every time he took a small sip, sometimes he didn't move at all, and after a while, let the rest continue to drink, Song Zhengming and Chen Xing simply moved to the small tea room of the hotel to drink tea.

"Drink it." Sitting on the chair half-lying, Song Zhengming touched his round belly and smiled, turning his head to look at Chen Xing, "Brother Chen Xing, I see that you are also in high spirits tonight, what are you happy about." ”

"What Mr. Song said, Nangang has obtained the approval of the National Development and Reform Commission, isn't this a happy thing, is it difficult to only be happy with Mr. Song, I can't be happy." Chen Xing said with a smile.

"That's a good thing, I said the wrong thing just now, but unfortunately I don't have any alcohol now, otherwise I would have to punish myself with a glass." Song Zhengming said with a smile.

"Mr. Song, it's not easy to ask for wine, I'll get it for you."

"Don't, Brother Chen Xing, I'll talk casually, if you drink again, you'll have to lie down tonight."

Chen Xing laughed when he heard this, "Mr. Song, I don't dare to get you drunk, I still have something to ask you tonight, if you are drunk, then I have no one to say." ”

"Oh, what's the matter?" Song Zhengming looked at Chen Xing suspiciously, Chen Xing is a mayor with a deep background, what else does he have to ask him for?

"Mr. Song, then I'll say it directly, if you have difficulties, then refuse directly, and I won't say anything." Chen Xing's face became serious.

"Brother Chen Xing, I don't like to hear what you say, if there is anything, I will avoid saying anything, if I can help you, I will refuse, we have both dealt with each other a few times, and you still don't know my character." Song Zhengming pretended to be unhappy and said.

"Then I won't be hypocritical with Mr. Song, I want to trouble Mr. Song to help me place a cadre, the level is not high, the deputy director level, I don't know if Mr. Song can help with this." Chen Xing said with a smile.

"What is the matter with me, it turns out that this is the case, as long as it is not the deputy hall, I can place it for you." Song Zhengming smiled very boldly, "Even if it is a deputy hall, it's a big deal that I will take this old face and go to the governor of Bora, and I can try to settle you as much as possible. ”

Laughing and laughing, Song Zhengming looked at Chen Xing with doubts, "Brother Chen Xing, there is a sentence that I don't know whether to ask or not." ”

"Mr. Song is also polite to me, don't you avoid asking questions if you have anything to say."

"Then I'll just say, our company can't be compared with your government departments after all, Brother Chen Xing, if you want to place a deputy department, it's not better to arrange it in the government department, and the future development potential is also greater, why do you want to go far and far." Song Zhengming looked at Chen Xing puzzled, the level of their enterprise is obviously not comparable with the government department, it is also the right place, if the right place of this enterprise is taken to the place, it will have to be downgraded to use, unless you have a background and a deep relationship.

"Mr. Song doesn't know if you heard about Kang Jicheng, deputy director of the Provincial Department of Education, who fell from the upper floor and died two days ago?" Chen Xing looked at Song Zhengming and asked, he planned to ask Song Zhengming for help, so he naturally had to explain the matter clearly, even if he didn't say it now, Song Zhengming would be able to find out by himself afterwards, instead of waiting for Song Zhengming to check it himself, it would be better for him to say it now, and it would not make Song Zhengming feel that he was not honest enough.

"Two days ago, I was still looking forward to the approval document in the capital, and after I came back, I was also busy with my own affairs, where did I have the heart to inquire about these things." Song Zhengming shook his head, his face was quite surprised, "You said that a deputy director of the Provincial Department of Education fell to his death?" ”

"Not bad." Chen Xing nodded, and quickly explained the general description of the matter.

After Song Zhengming heard this, his eyes widened, "Can this kind of person still be the deputy director?" I think he deserved to die. ”

"Song always sees it this way, but other people don't necessarily see it this way." Chen Xing smiled.

Song Zhengming nodded his head, Chen Xing's words are right, the place of officialdom is too complicated, and some things cannot be measured by normal moral standards, Chen Xing told him about this, Song Zhengming immediately grasped the point, "The deputy director that Brother Chen Xing wants me to place will not be the deputy director named Yang Hong." ”

"Mr. Song is sharp-eyed, and he can't hide anything from you." Chen Xing nodded in acquiescence.

"That's no problem, the girl named Yang Hong is indeed unlucky, there is no place for her in your place for the time being, then I'll come to this head, I'll let her come to our company, I'll see who will crook her mouth." Song Zhengming said with a grin, taking this matter down, the seemingly drunk eyes flashed a glimmer of light when he opened them occasionally, don't look at his age, he drank a lot of wine tonight, but he was not confused at all, and his eyes looked at Chen Xing with some smiling looks, but Song Zhengming didn't say anything.

It doesn't matter what the relationship between Chen Xing and Yang Hong is, it's all Chen Xing's business, he can't say anything as an outsider, and it's not a big deal, what if he helps Chen Xing, he is still really grateful to Chen Xing, it just so happens that Chen Xing has something to ask him now, and Song Zhengming is willing to help him.
