"Yes. Brother Li, I am in the Asian Department of the Ministry of Commerce, and now I am having trouble at work. Mainly Chinese investors in Myanmar have been feeling the tremendous pressure from Japan more and more strongly, so the ministry has arranged for me to find a way to solve it. ”

"I know a little bit about the situation in Myanmar, the Myitsone hydropower station has now stopped, right? ”

Li Rongze said: "Yes. Brother Li said that the suspension of the Myitsone hydropower station does not have a great impact on our national interests, but it is a dangerous signal. At stake, one of our national interests is the oil pipeline under construction from the coast of the Indian Ocean to the territory; two, the safety of our Navy's military bases on the southern coast of Burma; Of course, there are also those private enterprises that have been engaged in normal economic activities in Myanmar for a long time, and suddenly feel the huge economic pressure of Japan's national team as a whole, and they are eager for the relevant state departments to help. Myanmar is a country dominated by jadeite exports, which is extremely dependent, Brother Li's family is the largest importer of jadeite in China, and must have more contacts with Myanmar's jadeite rough merchants, the purpose of my visit is to ask Brother Li to come forward, contact with Myanmar's jadeite merchants, let them negotiate with the Myanmar government, straighten out and strengthen Sino-Myanmar relations, and stabilize the mood of the Myanmar people. ”

Wuyang said: "This matter may still be a little difficult to do. In the past, Western countries carried out a comprehensive blockade of Myanmar, coupled with their domestic turmoil, their domestic income basically relied on jadeite rough, and the main consumer of jadeite is China, which has formed a dependence on our country. Now the United States has lifted the blockade of Myanmar in order to form a strategic encirclement of our country. Some economic assistance was also given, in particular by the Government of Japan, and the visit of Deputy Prime Minister Taro Aso to Myanmar. Announcing the cancellation of 500 billion yen in debt, the Japanese consortium relied on its strong economic strength to engage in abnormal competition on competitive terms regardless of cost or backwards, which was actually an economic war organized by the Japanese government. If we just intercede on the basis of face, I'm afraid we won't be able to do anything. ”

Li Rongze said: "Brother Li, we also have our advantages. Due to the civil war, the two jade public auctions in Myanmar were not carried out. This must have dried up Myanmar's financial resources, which accounts for more than 60% of jadeite exports, and this ceasefire between the government and Kachin militants. Affirmatively, economic factors account for a large part. Brother Li, our Ministry of Commerce can discuss with the relevant departments of Myanmar, how about your family's company go and buy a batch of jadeite rough separately to alleviate their financial resources? ”

"With the financial resources of our family company. For the Government of Myanmar. I'm afraid it's also a drop in the bucket, and it doesn't make any practical sense. ”

"Brother Li, the domestic jade market is so good, with your company's business, it should be no problem to raise 3 or 40 billion US dollars, and the state will find a way to approve a loan of 6, 70 billion yuan, and 100 billion US dollars, which should be able to fundamentally solve their problems. It can't be said to be a drop in the bucket. Let's see, would you like to help with this? ”

Wuyang said: "Such a thing. I should do it both publicly and privately. Rong Ze, you just need to set the personnel and the date. ”

Li Rongze said: "You must go over, and you can go to 3 or 4 employees of your company." The date may take 3 or 5 days, and I will go back to Beijing to organize a group, and after contacting the Myanmar government, I will go there immediately. ”

"Okay, I'll make a decision on the group today."

"Just fax me their ID cards, and I'll get them diplomatic passports. During this time, please contact the jadeite merchants in Myanmar and influence the Myanmar government for our visit. ”

Wuyang said, "Okay." Rong Ze, Minister Chen, you came to Zhongnan, you are busy with official business, and you have not entertained well, so look for opportunities in the future. As you all know, my family company runs the jadeite business, and where you stay in the evening, I arrange for the staff to bring some items over. ”

Minister Chen said: "Comrade Wuyang, according to Rong Ze, that kind of jadeite, not to mention after processing, is raw materials alone, and each kilogram is hundreds of millions, dozens of kilograms, and the price is too high. ”

Wuyang said: "Don't look at the price of the target so high, it's actually all hyped." Sometimes if you are lucky, you can carve several pieces of jadeite by spending hundreds of thousands. ”

Li Rongze said: "Brother Li, now hundreds of thousands of dollars are buying a rough stone, which is not as big as a statue, not to mention that gambling on stones is a matter of losing nine out of ten." ”

Wuyang smiled: "Don't forget it." This time you go to Myanmar, you bring more money, and also bring some with Minister Chen, let's try it on the spot. ”

Minister Chen said with a smile: "I forget it, I bought a house a few years ago, where can I get hundreds of thousands?" ”

Li Rongze said: "Minister Chen, our family Xize and Brother Li went to Yunnan once, and it is said that they earned a villa. This time I'll borrow some money from him, and we'll all buy a piece and have a look. By the way, Brother Li, how did Xi Ze make his money? ”

Wuyang said: "Nishizawa's luck is particularly good, he spent 150 yuan to buy a black duck egg, and as a result, he cut out the glass kind of imperial green, and sold it for several millions, and used the money to buy another piece of big hairy stone, and cut out the ice kind of yang green jade, and then sold it, and then bought the wool stone, so that he made more money." ”

"It's shit luck. Brother Li, how can someone buy the jadeite cut out? ”

"Those buyers came with us, just to buy jadeite."

Li Rongze said: "We formed a group this time, and there were many entrepreneurs among them, but I don't know if they are interested in collecting jadeite. ”

Wuyang said: "It must be a really powerful entrepreneur, you can tell them that collecting jadeite is a more profitable business than collecting anything." In recent decades, jadeite has risen thousands of times. Of course, there must be money left over from the rice. ”

Li Rongze said: "This is easy to do, I still know a few powerful entrepreneurs, and I will call them at night." ”

Wuyang said: "Governor Daqi, would you also raise some money and bring it to me to try?" ”

Huang Daqi said: "I don't have any money either, let's see how Minister Chen gets it, I'll follow." ”

Minister Chen said: "I'll scrape together 10 yuan for Rong Ze to take it." Rong Ze, I wish you great victory. ”

Li Rongze said: "It still depends on Brother Li." ”

Huang Daqi smiled and said: "Then I wish Comrade Wuyang a great victory." ”

The three of them chatted for a while. Secretary Liu came back with a red face, shook his head with a smile and sat down, "No way." They were forced to drink a few glasses of wine, and it was really hard to be warm, they were all acquaintances. ”

Minister Chen didn't delve into what acquaintances they were, Wuyang knew that the leaders of various departments in the provincial government, and the people close to Liu Qingyuan, knew that this was opened by a secretary friend. It's definitely going to be a show, I know, aren't you here too? What's more, the wind is so tight now. It's a lot safer to come here.

Li Rongze said: "Secretary Liu, our ministry is going to organize a delegation to visit Myanmar, and I want to ask Secretary Li to do a favor and hang up a deputy head of the delegation." The round trip takes about 7 days. Take a leave of absence from you. ”

Liu Qingyuan said: "They are all busy with state affairs, and Comrade Wuyang will go when the time comes." I will not leave in the next few days, I will hand over the work of the provincial government with Comrade Daqi, make arrangements for the central work of the provincial government in the near future, and I would like to invite Comrade Wuyang to participate. Comrade Daqi, we will arrange for the general office of the provincial government to make preparations tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow we will convene a meeting of responsible persons of the constituent organs, organs directly under the provincial government, public institutions, other organs under the provincial administration, mass organizations, and central units stationed in the province. ”

Huang Daqi said: "Secretary. What are the main agendas? ”

"I leave the provincial capital, and you will preside over the work of the provincial government. Meet with everyone, get acquainted with each other, and be familiar with each other, so that we can carry out our work in the future, as we have done every time we have changed our term of office in the past, and we will also implement the spirit of the central authorities' instructions and earnestly change our work style. ”

Huang Daqi said: "Secretary, I think this is good, let's hold a province-wide teleconference, please give a lecture on implementing the instructions of the central authorities to change the style of work, and I will say a few words about economic work, so that we can save time, and we can also expand the scope of the meeting, so that the county level can also participate." ”

Liu Qingyuan said: "Okay, that's it." Then we can have a meeting tomorrow afternoon. Tomorrow morning, the provincial party committee, in conjunction with the provincial government, the provincial people's congress, and the provincial CPPCC, will set up an office for rectifying unhealthy tendencies and dispatch teams to various cities and prefectures to investigate and covertly inspect the work style. ”

Minister Chen said: "Secretary Liu, you are really resolute. ”

Liu Qingyuan said: "If the new provincial party committee and provincial government have put in place and do not bring out a new atmosphere in their work style and take new measures in economic construction, we will be regarded as a leading body that does nothing and cannot be explained from top to bottom." ”

Minister Chen said: "Comrade Qingyuan, Comrade Daqi, you have not been extravagant in food and accommodation in the two sessions this time, and you have set an example for carrying forward the new atmosphere. ”

Secretary Liu smiled and didn't say anything, Wuyang said: "Minister Chen, Secretary Qingyuan, if you want me to say, these things are already difficult to return, not a few meetings, a few documents can solve the problem." In order to completely eradicate it, it is necessary to hold meetings and issue documents, and it is also necessary to organize and deal with those who turn a deaf ear. ”

Secretary Liu said: "This time, a team was dispatched to investigate and covertly visit, and if one was found, one would be dealt with, and we would never tolerate it. Minister Chen, we invite you to dinner, it's not extravagant and wasteful, 7 people, at most 1,000 yuan, or Comrade Wuyang pays out of his own pocket, this is no problem, right? ”

Minister Chen smiled and said, "We ate Comrade Wuyang's today, and the next time you arrive in the capital, it will be time for us to treat you." ”

After saying goodbye and leaving, Wuyang remembered that he should call the big guy to express his attitude. He has already been an alternate member of the Central Committee for two terms, and he is still a deputy, and if he does not express his position, the chief does not know what he thinks. Sure enough, after receiving the call, the boss was very happy and said some words of encouragement. Then I decided to call Liu's father, he will retire soon. "Dad, the two sessions of our province ended today."

"You still haven't served in the government, have you? This is something that the central government has already decided. Wuyang, I know you have a chance, you have to treat it correctly. ”

"Dad, I can figure it out myself, you have cultivated me for so many years."

"Haha, if I want to teach you how to be a person and how to be an official, I have taught, but I have promoted you, and I have not spoken for you until this political meeting. Most of the top leaders of the governments of other provinces and regions are alternate members of the Central Committee, but you, as the successor of your system, will enter the center in 20 years, and you cannot be crushed by the successors of other factions now. But if you guys don't mention it, I'm not good at talking. ”

"Dad, thank you, I will ask you to cultivate more in the future."

"At the end of this term, I will retire. There's still a long way to go. Now that your ability to engage in economic construction has been recognized, you just need to do a good job in the work of your province and city. One thing you need to be aware of is to mature politically. You used to be young. Speak without scruples, the decision-making level can understand because you are young, and as you grow older, you can't be willful. ”

Wuyang said: "Dad, what if sometimes I can't help but express my different opinions? ”

"This situation is certainly inevitable, and once you have considered the problem and matured, don't put it in writing first. Instead, call the decision-makers to communicate. When you reach heaven and hear it, you have fulfilled your duty. It's hard to say who's right and who's wrong in many things, it's just the difference in the governing philosophy. There are differences in understanding, and there are also differences in execution time, so it is possible to divide them into right and wrong. For example, if the urbanization construction that is being implemented now is based on the needs of industrialization. Promoting urbanization is the right thing to do. If we ignore the actual situation and urbanize for the sake of urbanization, we will go to extremes, and we will do more harm than good. You can't object just because your province is different. The best way for you to deal with it is to find a good way to promote urbanization in the places where you are in power, and that is to creatively implement the principles and policies of the central authorities. ”

Wuyang smiled and said, "Dad." So it can still be like this? ”

Liu Zhengju also laughed, "In the past, your level of service was relatively low. I haven't told you this, and it's not too late to tell you, so it's good for you, a stunned young man, to go on a rampage, and just leave a good reputation for not being afraid of the powerful and daring to speak out. ”

"Dad, I don't dare to be stunned anymore in the future."

"No, what needs to be said is still to be said. When the interests of the party and the people are about to suffer heavy losses, you have discovered a problem, and if you do not stand up and speak out in a clear-cut manner, then you will be sorry for your party spirit and your conscience. ”

"Okay, when it's time to speak, you still have to speak, pay attention to the ways and means."

"Okay, that's right. I won't tell you more, other leaders also have to call, some retired leaders also have to call, and when there is a major festival such as the Spring Festival, or a major personnel change in the central government, they have to call. ”

"Okay, I'll do what you say. Dad, how is Xiao Zeng and Yu Bing? ”

"Aren't you a big media? Why are you still asking me? Tell you that they have already received a marriage license. By the way, have you done a good job of buying old books with Xiao Zeng's father? ”

"It's not done yet. The first batch of 820 copies has already been identified, and I paid his father a little more than 120 million in total, according to the experts' opinions. Recently, his father sent more than 600 copies, which have not yet been identified. However, according to the preliminary appraisal of experts, the value will not be worse than the previous one. ”

"You can't just talk about value and not pay attention to safekeeping. These books are all unique and rare books, and if they are damaged, they are no more. ”

"Dad, it won't. I found a little sandalwood, huanghuali or something, and I was reluctant to make even furniture, so I used it to make a bookcase. It's just that the library hasn't been built yet, and it may not be until the second half of the year. ”

"Good. If you want to build a bigger library, you have money anyway, collect more ancient and modern Chinese and foreign books, and give future generations a good place to read. When I retire, I'm going to come back for a few years. ”

"Okay. By the time you retire, our library will definitely have a larger collection of books, including books and e-books, and you are welcome to come and study. ”

"What I study is just to fulfill my dream of reading when I was young. Okay, let's not talk about it, you can call the other people quickly. ”

This is the vehicle has arrived at the courtyard of the municipal party committee, let Chen Ran stay in the guest house, Chen Ran said: "It's still early, the road is not far, let's go home and live, and come back tomorrow morning." ”

"Then I'll go to the bank, you wait for me downstairs tomorrow morning."

I called my father-in-law on the Wuyang Road, and basically finished the call that should have been made. After getting out of the car, I called Peng Yan first and asked her to contact Zhu Bao, Zhu Bei, and Yu Huijuan herself.

After receiving a call from Wuyang, Yu Huijuan said with a smile: "I can't get a call from you for 10 days and half a month outside, but when I arrived in Tanzhou, you called instead." ”

"You can't walk on the road, can you come to me? I have something to tell you. ”

Yu Huijuan said: "Okay, you tell me the address, and I'll go over immediately." ”

Wuyang branched out of the others and waited for her, and when she arrived, before she could speak, she hugged her and gave her a long wet kiss. After the kiss, Wuyang asked, "Who went home today?" ”

"I just arrived in Tanzhou in the afternoon, and I was trapped here again. Fortunately, I received a call from you just after I came back, otherwise I would have thought so badly outside that I wouldn't have seen anyone when I got home, so I wouldn't have to go crazy. ”

Wuyang smiled and said, "It's all like this, why don't you go home early?" ”

"You think I don't want to, I can't leave. But since this year, I'm no longer in charge of any specific affairs of the company, just like you. But I've set up a chamber of commerce, so I'll tell you about it later. ”

Wuyang said: "As a boss, you don't care about specific affairs, it is the best management. Once the big things are managed, you can let the managers do the work. Huijuan, I'm going to Myanmar recently, and you have a lot of businesses there, don't you go there too? ”

"Did you have a business or a private affair in the past?"

"The Ministry of Commerce organized a delegation, in addition to some government officials, to go to some entrepreneurs to discuss investment projects with the Myanmar government, probably to compete with Japanese companies."

Yu Huijuan said: "I have enough investment projects in Myanmar, and they are all working well, and I don't want to add more projects for the time being." If you agree on any investment intentions and you think you can invest, just call me and I will arrange for a senior executive in Myanmar to contact you. I still don't want to go myself, I have to relax at home. ”

"Okay. If there is a good investment project, how much money can you raise to invest? (To be continued......)
