Chapter 387: Local Reception
After Lin Qiangsheng returned to China, he directly took a foreigner and got into several cars prepared by Xingde in the capital, and they traveled all the way south to Xingde in HB Province after a two-day long journey. City.
In order to show the ability of Xingde's automobile industry, the municipal government has also specially prepared the Red Star station wagon, which is known as the Oriental Beauty, in fact, this car is like a larger van, not to mention its comfort.
After the group rushed to Xingde, what Lin Qiangsheng didn't expect was that Bai Yunsheng and the main leaders of the municipal party committee and municipal government welcomed them in person, including Han Mingchun, director of the Municipal Revolutionary Committee, and it seemed that the relationship between their party and government leaders was very harmonious.
Lin Qiangsheng brought Mu Qing and a team of seven engineers and lawyers composed of Americans to visit. The city has also caused some sensation.
The brand-new Yangtze River 750 sidecar motorcycle was brushed in front of the road, followed by Xingde's local Oriental Beauty Red Star station wagon, which looked like an important leader came to our city to inspect.
"Mr. Lin, our Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government have arranged a welcome banquet for you and your subordinates, please be sure to enjoy it!" The reception staff sent by Bai Yunsheng was a local girl who looked a little like Teresa Teng, she was twenty-four or five years old, with a round face, big eyes, double eyelids, and eyelashes.
"Miss Han, do you city leaders want to take this opportunity to exchange feelings with me? To tell you the truth, we really don't need to, we are used to getting things done, and it is important that you arrange your visit itinerary for tomorrow! "Lin Qiangsheng is really a little tired, anyone who sits on a big loaf of bread for more than a day will be tired, so the tone of his speech is a little bad.
Han Jinyu's face changed, she looked at Lin Qiangsheng's eyes changed, and finally smiled and said softly: "Mr. Lin, you should still participate, the city leaders are also kind!" No matter how hard you pay attention to work, it's not bad for this meal, is it? ”
Lin Qiangsheng thought about it. On the first day, he refused the invitation of the local cadres and said that this was not his home field, but he still said to Han Jinyu: "I just bring a secretary to go, my American subordinates are not suitable for our domestic invitation, so don't call them!" ”
Han Jinyu hesitated and nodded, "Okay then, then I'll wait for you outside!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng nodded and closed the door again. Han Jinyu stood outside the door and snorted softly, "What secretary can live in a guest room, who can deceive!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng knocked on the door of the other suite and said, "Mu Qing, city leaders, please go to dinner together!" ”
"It's coming!" After waiting for a while, a soft voice came from inside the door.
Lin Qiangsheng changed into a clean suit, and he tied a black bow tie on the collar to look slightly less formal.
The door opened, Lin Qiangsheng and Mu Qing walked out one after another, Lin Qiangsheng smiled at Han Jinyu and said, "I'm sorry Miss Han just now, let's go!" ”
Han Jinyu's eyes lit up when she looked at Lin Qiangsheng's black suit, and finally she stared at Lin Qiangsheng's face intently for a few seconds, and said with some hesitation: "Mr. Lin, it's just a meal, you don't have to dress so formally." ”
Lin Qiangsheng thought that he didn't want to wear the formal point, you landlord-style leading cadres, don't pour yourself down. He smiled and said, "Miss Han, I'm used to dressing like this!" ”
Han Jinyu looked at Mu Qing next to Lin Qiangsheng, and saw that she nodded in agreement, so she stretched out her hand and invited: "Then please, the city has set up a banquet in the Hermes-Epitek restaurant!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng nodded, and when he left the hotel, he saw a black Accord sedan parked in front of the door this time, and he smiled: "Why did you change the Oriental Beauty?" ”
Han Jinyu glanced at Lin Qiangsheng and said, "I asked for it, I hope you are satisfied!" ”
After the three of them got into the car and the driver started, Lin Qiangsheng asked Han Jinyu in the co-pilot: "Miss Han, what is the relationship between you and Director Han Mingchun of the Municipal Party Committee?" ”
"He's my uncle!" Han Jinyu did not hide it and reported it directly out of the house.
Lin Qiangsheng and Mu Qing glanced at each other. He raised his eyebrows, and Mu Qing looked at him with wide eyes in confusion.
In the United States for two years, Mu Qing has been able to speak fluent English, and this girl's foreign language ability is really beyond Lin Qiangsheng's expectations. This time I brought her back because Mu Qing's hometown is in HB Province, and Lin Qiangsheng felt that she might be more familiar with this place.
But in fact, Mu Qing has been in the Northeast since she was born, and her understanding of HB is limited to some impressions she has heard from her grandparents, and she doesn't know more about the customs of HB Province than Lin Qiangsheng.
When the car arrived at the Hermes-Epitek Restaurant, Bai Yunsheng and Han Mingchun personally greeted them warmly, and many people from the municipal government and municipal party committee came. There were seven or eight tables, and each table was full of people!
The Hermes-Epitek Hotel is a very large old hotel, and the number of hotels in Xingde itself is not large in size and small in population, so the number of hotels is much less. In addition to the scale of the Hermes-Epitek Hotel, it is a Muslim hotel with a high grade, and there are many Muslims in Xingde, and there are many hotels of minority ethnic groups.
"Mr. Lin, please! On behalf of the Xingde Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, I welcome you, everyone toast Mr. Lin with a cup! "Han Mingchun is in his early sixties. Although he is old, his spirit has not decreased, and his face is still red.
After hearing the words of Han Mingchun, director of the Revolutionary Committee, the seven or eight people at the table all stood up, and everyone who was familiar with them raised their glasses to Lin Qiangsheng.
Lin Qiangsheng couldn't help but drink when he saw this posture, so he had to stand up and salute everyone.
It seems that it is not possible to enter the countryside today without following the customs, after everyone drank it, Lin Qiangsheng also drained the wine in the cup in one gulp, and he hurriedly said to Bai Yunsheng, who was about to speak: "I said Lao Bai, Director Han, I understand your kindness, Lin really can't drink it, and then you don't want to pour me, everyone is all voluntary!" ”
Han Mingchun said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, you are here to be a guest in Xingde, the so-called guest is as you like!" Our Xingde custom is to drink until the glass is dry, our Yanzhao Dadi man is like this, you should follow the customs! ”
Bai Yunsheng also persuaded: "Yes, since Mr. Lin has arrived at our Xingde, you can have a good drink, there is a driver to send you without delay, we have to entertain you and Miss Mu!" ”
Lin Qiangsheng shook his head with a smile and said: "But I'm not strong enough to drink and I'm afraid of getting drunk, so I still drink as much as I can and can't drink according to the rules of my hometown, and I have received your kindness!" ”
He said this, which made Mu Qing, who was sitting next to him, also breathe a sigh of relief, she was not strong enough to drink, but it was better to order until the end, and the girl stared at everyone present and waited for them to agree.
After hearing Lin Qiangsheng's words, there were some noisy voices from the audience, Han Mingchun's face was a little unbearable, and he glanced at Bai Yunsheng.
The two didn't know what to look at, but Bai Yunsheng rescued the scene and said: "Then follow Mr. Lin's wishes, let's stop at the point!" ”
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief after hearing his words, and it seemed that they could eat this wine and food today.
Lin Qiangsheng said this and did the same, Bai Yunsheng toasted him, Lin Qiangsheng also did it for a while, and when others came to toast, he simply just took a sip of the cup, fortunately, everyone didn't care, they should eat and drink, anyway, they came today to eat this wine.
Of course, Lin Qiangsheng did this for a deeper reason, by refusing to drink, he just wanted to tell Han Mingchun Bai Yunsheng these local forces, he Lin Qiangsheng is not a role they can handle casually, if you want to toast, I have to drink what do you want, from before the two sides negotiated, he will gradually take the initiative!
Bai Yunsheng is nothing, Han Mingchun is a boss and is not interesting, I thought that Lin Qiangsheng was young, and he said that this young man had to listen to it, but this Lin Qiangsheng didn't eat this set, what was going on!
After eating a depressed welcome banquet, Han Mingchun sat in the Jetta prepared by the Municipal Party Committee, and he asked Han Jinyu who sat in: "What's going on with this Lin Qiangsheng, why is it so big?" ”
Han Jinyu glanced at the uncle secretly and said, "Have you forgotten his identity?" ”
Han Mingchun asked his niece puzzled, "What identity?" ”
Han Jinyu rolled his eyes and said: "You forgot that he is a foreign businessman, not a local cadre from other places we received, why should people listen to your command if they are investors!" ”
Han Mingchun suddenly, he patted his forehead and said: "Hi old, looking at his Chinese appearance, I really treat him as an ordinary person, it seems that this kid doesn't eat our set!" ”
He patted Han Jinyu's thigh with a smile and rubbed it vigorously, Han Mingchun licked his old face and said, "My niece can see it, so my uncle will pay attention to it from now on!" ”
Han Jinyu moved her legs away and glared at her uncle, and said in a low voice, "You are my uncle!" ”
Han Mingchun said disapprerovingly: "It seems that this kid surnamed Lin is quite stubborn, then wait for his investment to fall to the ground, and then we will clean him up!" ”
Han Jinyu said a little angrily: "Don't mess around, now that the central government has decided to let the old cadres take a back seat, the Central Advisory Committee has been established, and you still have to accumulate some virtue!" ”
"Fart, I, Han Mingchun, have been in Xingde for more than 20 years, it's not easy to survive the wind and rain, and I can't enjoy it, so what kind of second line!" He glared at Han Jinyu fiercely and said, "You have entertained me with the surname Lin, and when the time comes, I will bring you up and don't have to run errands below!" ”
Han Jinyu opened the car door before the hand he touched fell on his thigh and said, "I still have to give it away, you go back first!" ”
With a snort, Han Mingchun beckoned to the driver standing outside.
Han Jinyu looked at Jetta's taillights and muttered: "Old guy, when I have a good relationship with the surnamed Lin, I will go abroad and fly away, who will still listen to your command and let you eat tofu and be immortal!" ”
Her fingers clenched hard, and she turned her head to look at the hotel, just as Bai Yunsheng walked out with Lin Qiangsheng at this time, Han Jinyu quickly adjusted her mood and greeted her. (To be continued......)
