The private restaurant of the Tan family in the Beijing Hotel.

It's not the first time Chen Jing has visited here, but it was Qiu Zizhong who invited him today, and Chen Jing was still faintly curious about this person.

Qiu Zizhong's age is not very old, he is just forty-three years old this year.

At his age, he served as a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee and executive vice governor, and he should be regarded as a young and promising cadre.

Chen Jing temporarily crammed and learned about Qiu Zizhong's information.

Qiu Zizhong turned out to be the first graduate of Beijing University after the resumption of the college entrance examination in the Republic, and he majored in civil engineering.

After graduating, he joined the National Architectural Design Institute as a technician.

He officially entered politics in the mid-80s, when he went to the northwest as a cadre to aid Tibet, and later served as the secretary of the county party committee, and then rose up the ranks until he reached his current position.

Qiu Zizhong is a very low-key person, Qiu Lao is a strict father, and he has high requirements for several descendants.

Qiu Zizhong is the only second generation of the Qiu family who is engaged in politics, and General Qiu Lao is even more demanding on him.

Chen Jing had faintly heard of this name, but he didn't know much about it. In the circle of the capital, his name is far inferior to Tang Zhen and Hao Ming, who are rising stars.

This also proves from another side that the Qiu family is low-key and does not have a tradition of forming gangs, unlike the Fang family, everyone knows that it is the core of the Northwest lineage.

Perhaps it is for this reason that Chairman Qiu has become an ageless politician in the republic, and he is still at the top of the republic's power structure at the age of 80.

In fact, in Qiu Zizhong's heart, he was also very curious about Chen Jing.

Chen Jing's name has been very loud recently, the son-in-law of the Fang family, and the most eye-catching political star of the third generation of the Fang family.

And because Chen Jing is now famous, Chen Jing's family background, education, and various previous experiences are now being re-brought out and talked about.

Unlike other young talents, Chen Jing's identity from a civilian family makes his rise even more legendary.

And the love and marriage with a huge identity gap between him and Fang Wanqi are people's favorite issues to discuss.

The story of Cinderella in these years is certainly the material for popular interpretations on various TV screens, but the legend of the silk man's counterattack is also the most eye-catching part.

In the private room, Qiu Zizhong was holding a teacup, not in a hurry or impatient.

Originally, Qiu Ruohan was going to come over to join in the excitement at today's banquet.

However, Qiu Zizhong decisively stopped her thoughts, Qiu Ruohan is still young after all, he is frizzy in dealing with things, thinking about problems simply, just having a meal today, and just making the atmosphere too stiff, this is not Qiu Zizhong's original intention.

It is not so much that today's dinner is for the acquisition of the Huanghai Shipyard, it is better to say that Qiu Zizhong is more interested in Chen Jing.

Of course, Qiu Zizhong will not be a good gentleman. The matter of the Huanghai Shipyard was originally a trivial matter, but now it is such a trouble, which makes Chubei very faceless.

There were factional and geographical disputes between the large military regions of the republic, and the competition between the provinces of the Central Plains was even more intense.

In particular, the two provinces of Chujiang and Chubei have a high degree of overlap in resources, human conditions, and development modes, and the competition between the two provinces is all-round.

There is competition, and everything will not be under the sun.

For so many years, Chubei Province has been banning tobacco from Chujiang from entering the local market, building a bastion of local protectionism.

However, Chujiang Province is comprehensively sniping at the liquor in northern Chu, and the two sides are facing each other, and because of the huge interests involved, this matter cannot even be coordinated by the relevant departments of zhōngyāng.

And now, because of the acquisition of the Huanghai Shipyard, why do you have to choose Jingjiang Shipyard? Linwu Shipyard is worse than Jingjiang Shipyard?

In Qiu Zizhong's heart, this matter is not only a battle of interests, but also a battle of will.

Regardless of whether Chen Jing is a personal figure or not, Qiu Zizhong despises him strategically.

After all, Chen Jing is only a secretary of the municipal party committee, lower than him in terms of rank, and younger than him in terms of age. Judging from the current economic environment of Chujiang and Chubei, Chujiang is worse than Chubei.

Qiu Zizhong has an all-round advantage in hand, and there is no reason why he should not be confident.

"Ding Dong!"

The doorbell rings.

Qiu Zizhong gently put down the teacup and said, "Come in!" ”

Chen Jing pushed the door in, and Qiu Zizhong got up with a smile on his face and greeted: "You are Secretary Chen Jing of Jingjiang?" ”

Chen Jing looked at the tall man in his early forties, who looked unusually young, and he nodded: "Governor Qiu, I have admired your name for a long time, but I have always been in love with you. To be honest, I was really taken aback to receive your invitation. ”

Qiu Zizhong laughed and said, "Secretary Chen, you are too polite, we are both cadres in the Central Plains, and we can be regarded as fellow villagers in the capital." Today's meal is a gathering of our fellow villagers, that's all! ”

Chen Jingdao: "Governor Qiu said well, Chubei and Chujiang are only separated by a river, we are across the river, we should bow our heads and not look up, I am so happy to meet you today!" ”

Qiu Zizhong waved his hand and said, "Sit, sit!" Whatever, let's have a drink today? ”

Chen Jing nodded and said, "Naturally, you want to drink some, you are the leader, and I obey the leader's requirements." ”

The two sat down, and the dishes were quickly served.

Qiu Zizhong took two bottles of rice flower fragrance and slowly poured a cup for Chen Jingxian.

The two raised their glasses and touched, Qiu Zizhong took a sip, his eyes stared at Chen Jing and said, "Secretary Chen, how is this wine?" ”

Chen Jing nodded and said: "The wine is a good wine, there are many good wines in Chubei, and the fragrance of rice flowers is one of the best, this wine is very authentic." In terms of taste and quality alone, it is no less than Wuliangye and Moutai. ”

Qiu Zizhong squinted and said, "Really? With your comment, our Chubei liquor enterprises will have a direction of struggle in the future. What we lack is brand building, the quality of the wine is clearly good, and the price is good, but the brand value has not been able to rise.

The profits of the enterprise are far less than those of these well-known wine groups.

By the way, Secretary Chen, I heard that you are a good hand at grasping the economy, what do you think of our liquor industry in northern Chubei? ”

Chen Jing smiled slightly, waved his hand and said, "Governor Qiu, you really lift me up." I have been an official for so long, and I have done some things to develop the economy and engage in some macro planning. But to engage in branding and running a business, I am really a layman.

Just now, Governor Qiu, you pointed out the problem of Chubei Liquor Industry, and I am about to speak to ask you, I want to hear about the various effective policies of Chubei zhèngfǔ! You're asking me in turn, I'm ashamed! ”

Chen Jing said it very sincerely, obviously it was modest to hypocritical, but when Chen Jing said it, it made people feel comfortable.

Qiu Zizhong couldn't help but smile.

Young people are more frivolous, and young people are more conceited, but Chen Jing has a good grasp and behaves calmly.

Qiu Zizhong didn't dwell on this issue any longer, the two drank a few glasses of wine, and gradually the atmosphere became more lively.

Qiu Zizhong said a lot, Chen Jing said less.

In terms of attitude, Chen Jing behaved extremely respectfully, had a strong sense of superiority and superiority, and treated Qiu Zizhong completely with a leader's attitude.

Qiu Zizhong asked Chu Jiang many times.

Chen Jing also behaved extremely frankly, and Chen Jing did not hide all kinds of difficulties and problems in northern Chu. Especially when talking about Jingjiang, Chen Jing talked about the state-owned enterprises in Jingjiang, the fading interest groups in Jingjiang are not easy to handle, and the difficulties in reform are numerous, and so on.

Qiu Zizhong asked what he answered, did not evade the question, nor whitewashed the peace, what the truth was, he answered truthfully and honestly.

Gradually, the more the two chatted, the more speculative they became.

Especially when it comes to the reform of state-owned enterprises and the first issue, Qiu Zizhong himself is also quite touched, and he resonates with Chen Jing very much.

When talking about emotions, he couldn't help but pat the table to vent all kinds of emotions in his heart.

In this way, the two talked for a long time.

I don't know if Qiu Zizhong noticed that he was a little off topic, he suddenly changed his words and said, "By the way, Chen Jing, what's going on between your Jingjiang Shipyard and Huanghai Shipyard?" How did I hear that this matter is making a big fuss, and it also involves our Linwu shipyard?

Even the head of the large military region was alarmed by the acquisition of a shipyard, and even I was interviewed to tell you the truth.

I'm still in the dark about these things, and today you're here, what are you going to tell me? ”

Chen Jing pondered slightly, and then explained the cause and effect of the whole thing.

Of course, he hid all the things about Chen Jing's going to the military sub-district, as well as the things that Chen Jing talked about with the head of the Chujiang Military Region about the acquisition.

In the end, Chen Jing said: "That's the way it is, Governor Qiu. Some people say that people are poor and short-minded, and horses are thin and long-haired, which is too appropriate for Jingjiang. We are such a large shipyard, Jingjiang has struggled for decades to have today's scale.

In terms of assets, excluding brand value, this company has invested nearly 10 billion yuan before and after.

Now some of our cadres actually want to give away such a company for nothing, and what is even funnier is that we give away a big shipyard for nothing, and people pick and choose. ”

Speaking of this, Chen Jing suddenly became a little excited, and said:

"So, it didn't work out, and it was the biggest success for me. Today, you Governor Qiu are here, and I will really tell you what I really think. No matter how poor and difficult I Chen Jing is, let me do this kind of cheap selling of state-owned enterprises and being a loser, I am disgusted from the bottom of my heart.

Speaking of which, in fact, your Linwu shipyard is in a similar situation to us. You are a large shipyard, the operation has always been okay, and there is no debt. The Yellow Sea Shipyard wanted to buy it for hundreds of millions.

I also heard that some of your cadres in northern Chubei are not ashamed of this, but are proud of it, and they have written about it and pursued it as a political achievement.

Isn't it just a Yellow Sea shipyard? When someone smashes a signboard, some of our cadres are dizzy, which is a typical name-by-name and treating local construction as a child's play. Trade local interests for your own reputation.

Isn't this a showmanship?

It's a pity, Governor Qiu, so in a sense, let's sympathize with each other. I'm thinking about these things, and now I'm making such a fuss and letting others see big jokes, and I don't want to mention more fires in my heart......" (To be continued.) )
