Chang Hailong also arrived in the capital on this day, he came here this time for the sake of publicity, wanted to use his relationship, asked his teacher Cheng Runsheng to carry out greening design for the sea, he arrived in the capital when it was already eight o'clock in the evening, Zhang Yang asked him to take a taxi directly to the Chunyang Beijing Office. When Chang Hailong arrived, the dinner party was almost underway. In addition to Zhang Yang, everyone present had some wine, Sha Puyuan came up excitedly and shook hands with Chang Hailong, he didn't know Chang Hailong, but according to his words, Zhang Yang's friend was his friend.

Liu Zhiyu, director of the Jiangcheng Beijing Office, was already drunk, and because Xiaodong and Lin Wan escorted him back, Sun Dongqiang and several other party school classmates also left together.

Only Zhang Yang, Sha Puyuan, and Li Jian were left in the room.

Sha Puyuan originally wanted to let the kitchen serve again, but Zhang Yang smiled and said: "Secretary Sha, don't bother, Hailong and I still have business to discuss, let's go back first." ”

Although Sha Puyuan tried his best to stay, Zhang Yang still insisted on leaving with Chang Hailong, he saw that Sha Puyuan had drunk too much, and if he stayed, he would definitely have to listen to this chatter and endless wine talk.

Chang Hailong took the initiative to take the responsibility of driving, and drove the sitting tiger with Zhang Yang to leave the Chunyang Beijing Office, the two walked not far, Zhang Yang pointed to a barbecue stall on the side of the road: "Stop, eat some food and leave!" ”

Chang Hailong nodded, he parked the car aside, walked over with Zhang Yang, ordered a pound of barbecue, Zhang Yang wanted to go to the car to get wine, Chang Hailong said: "Drink some beer, thirsty!" ”

I immediately asked for a case of beer at the barbecue stand.

Chang Hailong was really a little thirsty, poured two glasses of beer in a row, and said with a smile: "Who are the people who drank with you tonight?" It seems like they've drunk too much. ”

Zhang Yang said: "They are all some colleagues in the past, and a few of them are still my past leaders. ”

Chang Hailong said: "It's not easy to make others drink with you sincerely, and those people want to slap you." ”

Zhang Yang laughed, he drank a glass of wine and said, "It's not me who people stutter. ”

Chang Hailong said: "If you can't tie up Secretary Song, of course I want to tie you up." "He came from a family of cadres and is much more sensitive to political matters than ordinary people.

Zhang Yang said with a smile: "Actually, I don't like to participate in this kind of drinking party, but after all, everyone knows each other in the past, and I am very nostalgic." I always feel that it is a little unbearable to open my mouth and refuse. ”

Chang Hailong said: "In the future, there will be more such things, and you will become more and more official. There are more and more such things. ”

Zhang Yang said: "How does your old man usually deal with these problems? ”

Chang Hailong said: "I remember that when my dad first became mayor, he had a lot of entertainment. But then there was a physical problem, and he used gout as an excuse. If you can dodge, you can hide. I really can't hide from it, with this excuse, you don't have to drink, although you helped him cure his gout, he doesn't drink much anymore, after becoming the secretary of the municipal party committee, I feel that he seems to have less entertainment than in the past. ”

Zhang Yang said: "I just don't know how to refuse, and I always feel that I can't bear to say no to others." ”

Chang Hailong said: "I think people must know how to refuse when they live in the world, if you can't learn to refuse, then you have to live for others all day long." If people tell you to drink, you have to go, and if they ask you to do something, you have to do it, what is the reason? To save face, this is a taboo for officials, and not knowing how to refuse is in a sense that the principle is not strong, and officials who are not strong in principle are most likely to make mistakes. ”

Zhang Yang couldn't help laughing: "Hearing you say this, it seems that there is still some truth!" ”

Chang Hailong said: "What does it mean to have some truth? It's very reasonable, let's make another analogy, don't talk about officialdom, just talk about being a person, let's talk about the relationship between men and women, if you have a wife, but there are other girls who express their love for you, if you don't know how to refuse, don't you have to make a mistake? ”

Zhang Daguan scratched his head: "Hailong, this seems to make some sense!" ”

Chang Hailong said: "People can't talk too much about feelings in many cases. This is the case both in officialdom and in the shopping mall, you must separate your feelings from your work, otherwise it will be difficult to succeed. ”

Zhang Yang said: "What's wrong? Is there any trouble running in? ”

Chang Hailong smiled and said, "No, just talk about it casually." He remembered the purpose of coming to Beijing this time: "By the way, tomorrow morning, my teacher will go fishing in Miyun, let's go with him." ”

Zhang Yang said: "I don't like fishing. ”

Chang Hailong said: "If you want to ask him to help design urban greening, you have to do what he likes." He likes to fish, so you can just reluctantly perfunctory it. ”

Zhang Yang picked up the phone and said, "I'll arrange it, I still have time to find a fish pond." ”

Chang Hailong said with a smile: "You don't need to arrange, Professor Cheng doesn't like to go to the fish pond to fish, he has a place, let's just follow the past, I made an appointment with him on the way here, and we will pick him up at his door at five o'clock tomorrow morning." ”

Zhang Yang said: "Cheng, I listen to you, but I have to rush back at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, I have important things to do." ”

Chang Hailong said: "I'll be back at noon." ”

The two went to the Pinghai Beijing Office that night to live, early the next morning, before dawn Zhang Yang got up, because to pick up Professor Cheng Runsheng, so forty minutes in advance, he woke up Chang Hailong, the two rushed to the door of the family dormitory of the China Academy of Arts and Crafts in the dark, ten minutes away from five o'clock, Chang Hailong yawned and said: "Sleepy, I knew I didn't drink with you for so long last night." ”

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Sleep on the way back!" He saw a thin old man come out of the door, with a sun hat on his head, a pair of pull-back shoes on his feet, and fishing gear in his hands, it was expected to be Cheng Runsheng, Zhang Yang smashed Chang Hailong with his elbow, Chang Hailong looked outside, hurriedly pushed the car door and walked down, came to the old man, and respectfully shouted: "Teacher Cheng, you are so early!" ”

Cheng Runsheng smiled: "You are earlier than me!" Chang Hailong took the fishing gear in his hand, helped put it in the trunk, and then opened the door to invite Professor Cheng up.

Zhang Yang turned his head and said with a smile: "Hello Professor Cheng!" ”

Cheng Runsheng said: "You are ......"

Zhang Daguan was about to introduce his identity, and Chang Hailong had already preemptively said: "Teacher Cheng, this is my driver Zhang Yang, you can just call him Xiao Zhang." ”

Zhang Daguanren's words just came to his lips and Chang Hailong choked back, when did he become his driver? It seems that Chang Hailong didn't want him to reveal his identity too early, and was afraid that Cheng Runsheng would perceive the purpose of their trip in advance.

Cheng Runsheng smiled and said: "Xiao Zhang, thank you for your hard work, let's go to Miyun!" ”

Zhang Yang nodded, the driver is the driver, who let himself have something to ask for, in order to invite this nationally famous garden design master, what does it matter if the buddy gives you a day as a driver?

Zhang Yang drove to Miyun according to Cheng Runsheng's guidance, and on the way, Cheng Runsheng and Chang Hailong's master and apprentice kept chatting, mostly about Chang Hailong's career.

Chang Hailong's career has developed well in the past two years, and he has his business all over the country, so he naturally makes a lot of money, and he can be regarded as a successful person.

Cheng Runsheng sighed: "Hailong, you were the most outstanding student in that class back then, I thought you would embark on the road of design, but I didn't expect you to end up in business." ”

Chang Hailong said: "I'm ashamed to live up to the teacher's expectations of me." ”

Zhang Yang couldn't help but interject: "Mr. Chang, I think you are good now, what is the purpose of learning knowledge?" It's not about applying what you've learned, you can now turn what you've learned into wealth, that's the ideal result! ”

Cheng Runsheng said: "Xiao Zhang, I mean that if Hailong had concentrated on design, he might have become an internationally renowned designer by now." Isn't it a pity that you said that he gave up his strengths and chose to go into business? ”

Zhang Yang said: "It's a pity! There are only a few who have become world-class designers, but there are tens of millions of roads to wealth, although we have not become a world-class designer, but have become a successful businessman, there is a way to be a champion in 36 lines! ”

Chang Hailong secretly flaunted and spoke, but Cheng Runsheng laughed: "Hailong, you are a very interesting driver, thoughtful, thoughtful!" ”

Zhang Yang smiled and said: "Professor Cheng, don't laugh at me, I just said it casually, I think applying what I have learned is the most important thing, how can a person's value be reflected?" It is to give full play to what he has mastered, to serve the society as much as possible, and to create social value, don't you say? ”

Chang Hailong heard it at this time, and he publicized that this kid was yin enough, and he dared to quietly set up Professor Cheng.

Professor Cheng didn't know what to do, but nodded and said, "That's right, Hailong, Xiao Zhang is right, what is the purpose of your knowledge?" It is to realize your own value, and for today's era, the most direct way to realize your own value is to use what you have learned to repay the society. ”

Chang Hailong smiled but didn't speak, and said in his heart, Professor Cheng, people are coaxing you to drill into the set, and it will be time for you to repay the society later.

Cheng Runsheng's fishing place is a small river in the south of Miyun, the river bank is surrounded by rich vegetation, Zhang Yang parked the car in an open place, Chang Hailong helped to take down the fishing gear, Cheng Runsheng walked around the river, he was selected for a location, and then used the bait soaked in white wine to go to the river to make a nest, Cheng Runsheng's biggest hobby is fishing, and he doesn't like to go to the fish pond to fish, he always feels that he has lost the fun of fishing, his favorite is to come to nature, fish quietly, and enjoy the fun of integrating into nature.

Chang Hailong also got a fishing rod and fished it not far from Cheng Runsheng.

Zhang Daguan has no interest in fishing, and it is inconvenient to disturb them when they fish, so they walked along the river bank for a while, and finally felt bored, so they simply got in the car to make up for sleep, and when they opened their eyes, it was already ten o'clock in the morning, and he got out of the car to see, okay, the master and apprentice have not even caught a fish scale until now.

Zhang Daguan came to Cheng Runsheng's side and asked kindly: "Professor Cheng, how many have you fished?" ”
