Chapter 95: The Rich Man (2)
"My car is parked in the back, Miss Chen Feifei, please come here." Hearing that Zhou Fan and the others agreed to go to the Beijing Hotel, Zhang Yaoyang said with a smile, but these words seemed to have some show-off meaning in them, especially looking at Zhou Fan's eyes, which showed that he was superior.
"I don't think it's necessary, Zhou Fan drove over, Meimei, you can also sit in a car with me." Chen Feifei replied coldly.
"That's right, Zhou Fan, I haven't seen you for a few years, you even bought a car." Compared with later generations, there were really not many people who owned a car in the 90s, and the conditions for being able to afford a car were generally not bad, after all, the price of a car at that time was almost able to buy a house.
"There, the car in the unit, I'll drive it out and use it." Zhou Fan responded modestly, they are all old classmates who have not seen each other for so many years, and there is no need to show off in front of each other.
Originally, I heard that Zhou Fan had his own car, and Zhang Yaoyang's face was still a little unnatural, but after hearing Zhou Fan say that it was a car in the unit, Zhang Yaoyang suddenly became radiant again.
"My old classmates work there." Hearing Zhou Fan mention things at work, Chen Feifei inquired with great interest.
"It's a mess in the NDRC," Zhou Fan shook his head and said.
"It turned out to be an official master, I haven't seen it before." Sun Meimei looked at Zhou Fan with a smile.
"Old classmate, don't make fun of me, I'm just a mess of food, an iron rice bowl, one person is full, and the whole family will not starve to death." Zhou Fan said with a smile.
"That's okay, I heard that it is difficult for the NDRC to enter, it seems that the relationship between your family should be not shallow, right?" Sun Meimei opened her mouth to inquire, in the past, when she was in high school, Zhou Fan basically rarely caused trouble, and the classmates in the class would not associate Zhou Fan with the Zhou family, not to mention that she was young at that time, and some things naturally did not think so far as they do now.
"Last year, the national ministries and commissions recruited for the first time, and I was just lucky." Since I don't want to tell Sun Meimei, the grandson of the Zhou family, the current statement is undoubtedly the best reason.
"That's what you are good at, and when you become a big official in the future, you have to follow my old classmate." Sun Meimei complimented with a smile, and it could be seen that Sun Meimei was really happy for her old classmate from the bottom of her heart.
"I know Director Chen of the National Development and Reform Commission, and I will introduce it to you next time I have a chance, and by the way, I will ask Director Chen if the car of the National Development and Reform Commission can also be used in private time." Hearing that Zhou Fan was an ordinary cadre of the National Development and Reform Commission, Zhang Yaoyang said with some pride.
Director Chen? There are more directors of the National Development and Reform Commission, as for the director surnamed Chen, Zhou Fan really knows a few, but he doesn't know which one Zhang Yaoyang knows, although he knows what the other party means to show off, but Zhou Fan is really too lazy to talk more with others.
Seeing that Zhou Fan ignored himself, Zhang Yaoyang didn't notice that Zhou Fan was too lazy to pay attention to himself, and actually said triumphantly: "How is it?" Let's see when Director Chen is free, let's go out for a meal together, and I'll introduce you to each other. ”
Looking at Zhang Yaoyang's meaning, he just didn't spread the news that he knew a director of the National Development and Reform Commission throughout the capital.
When Chen Feifei and Sun Meimei got into the car, Zhou Fan drove in the direction of the Beijing Hotel, originally thinking that Zhang Yaoyang was bored and would leave by himself, but he didn't expect that this Zhang Yaoyang would really stick to his own people, and he didn't know if the other party had no skin and no face, or if he was really born selling dog skin plasters in his previous life.
"Zhang Yaoyang is like this, Zhou Fan, don't worry." In the car, Sun Meimei opened her mouth to apologize to Zhou Fan, and it could be seen that Sun Meimei really cared about Zhou Fan and Chen Feifei, two old classmates, and the friends she brought with her were like this, and Sun Meimei's face was inevitably a little unpleasant.
"It's okay, between our old classmates, we have to talk about this, and you can't blame you for these things." Zhou Fan shook his head with a smile and said.
"Meimei, don't think about it so much, Zhou Fan is not a stingy person, by the way, what are you doing now after all these years?" Chen Feifei joked with a smile, and by the way, he also cared about the other party's recent situation.
"I'm not just helping out at home, it's comparable to the two of you, one is a future official, and the other is a ......." After holding it for a long time, Sun Meimei remembered that she hadn't asked Chen Feifei what he was doing.
"Zhou Fan works in the National Development and Reform Commission, what about you?" Sun Meimei asked.
"What can I do? It's not that it's been exploited by the capitalists. When he said this, Chen Feifei couldn't help but look at Zhou Fan and glared at Zhou Fan fiercely.
This small action naturally can't escape Sun Meimei's eyes, but in Sun Meimei's opinion, it is obvious that Chen Feifei and Zhou Fan are there, and naturally they can't imagine that Zhou Fan is the so-called capitalist in Chen Feifei's mouth.
When he arrived at the Beijing Hotel, Zhang Yaoyang stuck up like a dog skin plaster, and when he saw Zhou Fan and the others getting out of the car, Zhang Yaoyang stepped forward with a smile and joined in the fun: "Miss Chen Feifei, the location has been arranged, please come here." ”
Chen Feifei frowned slightly, he didn't bother to pay attention to the other party, but the other party posted it without face and skin, which was annoying enough.
Originally thought that Zhang Yaoyang had arranged a box, but when he entered the hotel, he realized that Zhang Yaoyang only arranged a position near the corner in the lobby, and when he saw people coming and going in the lobby, Zhou Fan couldn't help frowning, and wanted to ask the waiter to arrange a box, but seeing that it was already time to eat, a box would be arranged, and it was inevitable to say hello to the person in charge of the hotel, which would inevitably alarm some people and try to cause some unnecessary trouble.
"Miss Feifei, I'll cook this meal, what do you like to eat, you're welcome." Zhang Yaoyang smiled and handed the menu to Chen Feifei.
Chen Feifei frowned, and said lightly: "I said that I will pay for this meal myself, so I don't need to trouble Mr. Zhang, Zhou Fan, you can order food." Chen Feifei casually handed the menu to Zhou Fan.
"No trouble, no trouble, it is my honor to be able to invite Miss Chen Feifei to dinner, Miss Chen Feifei should not fight with me." Zhang Yaoyang said with a smile, but he didn't notice that Zhou Fan's eyes rolled, obviously he had some ghost idea.
"I think Mr. Zhang is so sincere, let's not fight with Mr. Zhang." Zhou Fan smiled and glanced at Chen Feifei, although he didn't know what the hell Zhou Fan had come up with, but Chen Feifei still nodded knowingly.
Hearing Zhou Fan's words, Zhang Yaoyang hadn't noticed the trap yet, and actually smiled and echoed: "Zhou Fan is right, Miss Feifei shouldn't fight with me." ”
"Then thank you Mr. Zhang in advance." With Zhou Fan's eyes just now, Chen Feifei also took the opportunity to push the checkout to Zhang Yaoyang.
Zhang Yaoyang was slightly stunned, Chen Feifei was still arguing with himself just now, but now he is so good at talking, it seems that he is sincere, this is a beauty, it is only a matter of time before he thinks about it, but he doesn't know that he will be calculated by Zhou Fan.
Since there is a big man who is willing to pay money, Zhou Fan is naturally not polite, but before ordering, Zhou Fan will inevitably provoke the other party with words: "Since Mr. Zhang is so bold, then I am not welcome." ”
"Order whatever, I'll check out later, and order whatever I like." Zhang Yaoyang patted his chest and said boldly, looking at this, there are really some northerners' surnames.
With Zhang Yaoyang's words, Zhou Fan was naturally polite, and specially picked the expensive points in the menu, and only then ordered two dishes, Zhang Yaoyang's face was not good-looking, but the words had been released just now, and now there is no regret medicine, not to mention that in front of Chen Feifei, Zhang Yaoyang naturally wanted to leave a good impression on Chen Feifei.
Zhang Yaoyang couldn't see anything on the surface, but he obviously hated Zhou Fan in his heart, which would definitely grit his teeth at Zhou Fan, and the only hope was that Chen Feifei and Sun Meimei could show mercy, otherwise they would be bankrupt at this meal.
But with Zhou Fan as a demonstration, plus Sun Meimei and Chen Feifei have no good impression of Zhang Yaoyang, so naturally they will not show mercy to their subordinates, Sun Meimei may also be because of the relationship with Zhang Yaoyang, but she didn't make too much decision, Chen Feifei didn't talk about the two dishes he ordered, and the last bottle of 82-year-old red wine made Zhang Yaoyang sweat on his forehead.
Zhou Fan glanced at Chen Feifei with a smile, this girl is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
Seeing Zhou Fan looking at himself, Chen Feifei also smiled proudly at Zhou Fan, but there was some show off, Zhou Fan carefully gave Chen Feifei a thumbs up, and the two laughed tacitly.
Zhang Yaoyang's face became darker and darker, looking at Zhou Fan and the others eating happily, the more Zhang Yaoyang felt bad in his heart, and Zhang Yaoyang also saw that Zhou Fan and the others were deliberately slaughtering themselves, thinking of this, the more Zhang Yaoyang thought about it, the more unconvinced he became, but the words just now had already been released, if he showed weakness at this time, Zhang Yaoyang's face would inevitably be a little unreasonable.
Zhang Yaoyang was holding back his strength in his heart, so he looked at the two people who came in from afar, one of them Zhang Yaoyang knew, wasn't it the Director Chen of the Development and Reform Commission mentioned in Zhang Yaoyang's mouth, he didn't expect to meet each other here, he glanced at Director Chen, and then looked at Zhou Fan, but Zhang Yaoyang was in his heart.
It is said that the payment for this meal is also particular, if he introduces Director Chen to Zhou Fan, then Zhou Fan is naturally embarrassed to let himself pay for this meal, he wanted to kill himself at first, but in the end he was asking for hardship, Zhang Yaoyang can also imagine that Zhou Fan's final face will definitely be ugly, thinking of this, Zhang Yaoyang can't wait to greet Director Chen: "Director Chen, I didn't expect to meet you here." ”
Director Chen obviously didn't expect to meet an acquaintance, and he didn't come back to his senses at first, but when he recognized Zhang Yaoyang clearly, Director Chen said with a smile: "It turned out to be Xiao Zhang?" What a coincidence. ”
"A few friends have dinner together, and I happen to have a friend who works in the National Development and Reform Commission, I don't know if I can introduce him to you." Zhang Yaoyang said with a smile.
Director Chen frowned slightly, and after a while, he nodded and said, "You can bring someone over to get to know you." ”
Obviously, this Director Chen is ready to put on a leadership posture, hearing Director Chen say this, Zhang Yaoyang felt proud for a while, in this way, Zhou Fan can still not accept his own affection, and the meal money is naturally .......
"Secretary Zhao, please here, please here." Compared with taking a posture in front of Zhang Yaoyang, Director Chen was groveling in front of another middle-aged man beside him, nodding his head and bowing his waist, and he didn't have the arrogant demeanor just now.
"Director Chen just came here for dinner, how about it? Zhou Fan, why don't I introduce you to you? Zhang Yaoyang said a little proudly, being able to suppress Zhou Fan's head and show his face in front of Chen Feifei by the way, Zhang Yaoyang naturally felt very comfortable in his heart.
Director Chen? Zhou Fan frowned slightly, he really couldn't remember that Director Chen was worthy of Zhang Yaoyang's constant show-off, and in Zhou Fan's opinion, department-level cadres obviously couldn't get into Zhou Fan's eyes.
"I think it's better to forget it, and I don't know that Director Chen." Zhou Fan smiled and said politely.
Hearing Zhou Fan say this, Zhang Yaoyang's punch seemed to hit cotton, just now he was just thinking about having fun, but he didn't expect that Zhou Fan didn't want to see Director Chen, if this is an ordinary person, I wish I could show my face in front of the leader, and I don't know what Zhou Fan thinks in his heart, but it doesn't matter what Zhou Fan thinks, the most important thing is that if Zhou Fan doesn't go to see Director Chen, then Zhang Yaoyang's plan will not be used.
wanted to open his mouth to persuade Zhou Fan to say a few words, but it seemed that it was a little inappropriate for him to say this, but it was as if he was begging Zhou Fan to see Director Chen.
"Zhou Fan, why don't you go and meet Director Chen? In any case, it is also the leadership of your National Development and Reform Commission. Sun Meimei obviously didn't know Zhou Fan's identity, and was a little worried that Zhou Fan would offend this so-called Director Chen, so she opened her mouth to persuade.
Hearing that someone helped him persuade him, he fell into Zhang Yaoyang's arms, Zhang Yaoyang said with a smile: "Director Chen is a capable person in the National Development and Reform Commission, but it is not easy for ordinary people to see each other. ”
According to the tenure of the department-level cadres of the ministries and commissions, basically except for the personnel department, the other department-level cadres belong to the column of cannon fodder, and this capable person is naturally not enough, not to mention the meaning of Zhang Yaoyang's mouth, it seems that this Director Chen is omnipotent in the NDRC, even if it is a cadre in Zhang Jindong's position, it is impossible for one person to have the final say in the NDRC.
"Since Director Chen has come to eat, I still won't disturb the leader's meal, so as not to annoy others." Zhou Fan smiled and declined Sun Meimei's kindness, shook his head and decided to sit firmly on the Diaoyutai.
Seeing Zhou Fan like this, Zhang Yaoyang was really a little anxious, but looking at Zhou Fan's meaning, he obviously made up his mind, thinking of this, Zhang Yaoyang glanced back at Chen Feifei again, seeing that Chen Feifei and Zhou Fan have a close relationship, Zhou Fan can't figure it out, Chen Feifei may think clearly, this is for Chen Feifei to persuade Zhou Fan, but Chen Feifei showed a calm face, it seems that Zhou Fan does not go to see the so-called Director Chen, it seems to be a very common thing.
Seeing Chen Feifei's attitude, Zhang Yaoyang could only glance at Sun Meimei as if asking for help, hoping that Sun Meimei could help persuade Zhou Fan again, but Sun Meimei looked at the expressions of Chen Feifei and Zhou Fan, although she didn't know why these two people were so calm, but Sun Meimei didn't mean to persuade Zhou Fan again.
"Okay, you wait, I'll talk to Director Chen, and say that you Zhou Fan don't give face to others." If this soft one doesn't work, it will come hard, but this word has some threatening meaning.
Hearing Zhang Yaoyang's words, Sun Meimei's face was a little unsightly, Zhang Yaoyang's words obviously had the meaning of sowing discord, if this was really awkward with Director Chen, Zhou Fan would not have a good time in the National Development and Reform Commission in the future.
Sun Meimei pulled Zhang Yaoyang, turned around and glanced at Zhou Fan, but Zhou Fan looked indifferent, for Zhang Yaoyang's threat just now, Zhou Fan only treated the other party as a fart.
Seeing Zhang Yaoyang leaving, Sun Meimei couldn't help but complain to Zhou Fan: "Zhou Fan, what are you doing here?" If Zhang Yaoyang had talked nonsense with Director Chen in the past, it would have been difficult for you to have a hard time in the NDRC. ”
Hearing Sun Meimei's words of concern, Zhou Fan smiled and said with relief: "Don't worry, although Director Chen is a leader, he is not my direct leader, and he can't control me." ”
"Even if you are not a direct leader, but you are also the leader of your National Development and Reform Commission, you still have to give this little face." Although she listened to Zhou Fan's explanation, Sun Meimei still felt a little resentful of Zhou Fan's meaning.
Zhou Fan shrugged his shoulders with a smile: "It's already like this now, it's useless to say this, don't worry." ”
"I know it's useless now, but don't do this in the future, if you don't change your temper in the future, you will inevitably suffer." Sun Meimei sighed and said, Zhou Fan could see that this old classmate was sincere to him, although he had not been in touch for so long, but Zhou Fan inevitably had a good impression of Sun Meimei, since Sun Meimei regarded herself as a friend, Zhou Fan naturally regarded Sun Meimei as a friend.
Although I don't know what Zhang Yaoyang and Director Chen said, but when Director Chen came out, his face was obviously not good-looking, under the guidance of Zhang Yaoyang, Director Chen stood in front of Zhou Fan, and the corner of his eye swept Zhou Fan, but Director Chen asked Zhou Fan out of the corner of his eye: "What's your name, from that office?" ”
Looking at the other party's meaning, he really treats himself as a green onion, but what he met today was Zhou Fan, and Zhou Fan obviously didn't eat the other party's set.
Seeing that Zhou Fan ignored him, Director Chen's brows furrowed tightly, and his face was bruised, showing Director Chen's anger at the moment.
Seeing that Zhou Fan didn't answer himself, Director Chen frowned and glanced at Zhang Yaoyang, Zhang Yaoyang carefully muttered a few words in Director Chen's ear, Director Chen shouted at Zhou Fan in black: "Your name is Zhou Fan, right?" It doesn't matter which office you're from, it's not going to be left like that. ”
Zhou Fan ate by himself, and didn't bother to pay attention to Director Chen's angry appearance, from the time he saw Director Chen just now, Zhou Fan recognized who this Director Chen was, a deputy director of the Logistics Management Office, although he had some real power in his hands, but Zhou Fan really didn't take it to heart, even if the director of the Logistics Management Office stood here, Zhou Fan was not a bird.
Seeing Zhou Fan ignoring himself, Director Chen turned around angrily and left, seeing Director Chen's appearance, Sun Meimei couldn't help but worry a little for Zhou Fan, seeing Sun Meimei's concerned look, Zhou Fan nodded at Sun Meimei with a smile, signaling the other party to rest assured, as for Zhang Yaoyang who was standing aside, Zhou Fan was too lazy to pay attention to the other party.
