After coming out of the Lihai Hotel and returning home, Vice Mayor Su was so happy that he kept humming the song "Drinking Celebration Wine Today" in the revolutionary modern Peking Opera "Outwitting Tiger Mountain", and he was also a little staggering when he walked, obviously a little drunk, Su Xiaodan frowned, and Li Mingfang smiled.

At this moment, his mobile phone rang, and when he answered, it turned out to be Governor Cheng Hao calling in person.

Governor Cheng's tone this time was very kind: "Comrade Su Hong, just now Comrade Que Haibo called me to tell me: You have made great contributions to retaining the investment of Jinghua Company this time, not only successfully keeping their 1 billion yuan investment in Mingguang, but I heard that they have also added 600 million yuan. This is a great thing and a great joy! It seems that people still have to be a little stressed before they can be motivated. Last time, I criticized you by name at the provincial economic work summary meeting, and you see, you have the motivation and the means. But that's just the beginning. As the deputy mayor in charge of industry, I hope you can cooperate well with the CEOs of Jinghua Company, care more about them, support them more, not only to keep this investment firmly in Mingguang, but also to make it play the greatest effect. I believe that this is the most important task of you, the deputy mayor, in the next few years, and it is also a major political task entrusted to you by the provincial party committee and the provincial government!"

Vice Mayor Su was very excited at first: This was the first time that Governor Cheng had personally called him, the vice mayor! However, when he listened to it, he felt that something was wrong: According to the meaning of Governor Cheng's last few words, wouldn't he be the vice mayor in charge of industry for the next few years? And the original intention of his efforts to retain the investment of Jinghua Company this time was to make a little political capital for himself through this incident, and to use this to rise to a higher level and enter the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee. Could it be that Governor Cheng said this on purpose? He deliberately sent a clear signal to himself in this way: You should stay in the post of vice mayor, and it is impossible for you to enter the Standing Committee!

Thinking of this, Vice Mayor Su's wine woke up for most of the time, and his mind spun quickly, so he decided to test Governor Cheng: "Thank you, Governor Cheng, I will definitely do what you instruct." By the way, I would like to make a specific report to you about Jinghua's reinvestment in Mingguang. I happen to be coming to the provincial capital tomorrow, I wonder if you can take some time out of your busy schedule to meet me?"

As soon as Governor Cheng heard him make this request, his tone immediately became cold: "I'm sorry, I can't arrange time tomorrow." If it is really necessary, you can tell Comrade Hai Bo and ask him to report to me!"

As soon as Vice Mayor Su heard this, he was so angry that he almost scolded on the spot "Enter your mother", and finally remembered that the phone had not hung up, so he swallowed back this swear word that rushed to his mouth, and said with a forced smile: "Okay, okay, I will report to Secretary Que first tomorrow according to your instructions!"

Before he finished speaking, Governor Cheng hung up the phone with a "snap".

Vice Mayor Su threw the phone on the sofa and sat down on the chair with a sluggish expression, his eyes straight, and he didn't come back to his senses for a while.

Li Mingfang had been listening to him talking to Governor Cheng, and when he saw him like this at this moment, he asked anxiously: "Old Su, what's wrong? Is Governor Cheng criticizing you again? Didn't you keep Jinghua Company? Why does Governor Cheng still have this attitude?"

Vice Mayor Su shook his head tiredly and said: "He made this call on purpose, the purpose is to knock me, so that I don't think that if I have made some efforts to retain Jinghua Company, I can enter the Standing Committee." It seems that I am already the object of constant suppression in his mind. I estimate that this is all the credit of Ouyang Wen from the Organization Department. He has a very strong relationship with Governor Cheng, and may have said a lot of bad things about me from Governor Cheng. Perhaps, Governor Cheng also knew that Xiaodan was Secretary Du's goddaughter, and in order to compete with Secretary Du, even a small member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee wanted to arrange people on their side and try to squeeze out all the people related to Secretary Du. By the way, Mingfang, what about Xiao Leng?"

Sneer Xiaotian happened to come out of the bathroom and asked, "Uncle Su, what's the matter?"

"You hurry up and contact Secretary Su, tell him about my situation, and ask him if he has anything to think?"

Sneer Xiaotian took out the phone and dialed Secretary Su's mobile phone.

After listening to what he said, Secretary Su was silent for a moment and said, "This matter is really difficult to handle. If it's the city, state or district, I can also come forward to say hello or coordinate. But this matter involves Governor Cheng and Minister Ouyang, it is very sensitive, and I really can't help it!"

Deputy Mayor Su has been listening, and when he saw Secretary Su saying this, he couldn't help but turn pale, and he was stunned and speechless.

At this time, Su Xiaodan's phone rang suddenly, and it was Mrs. Du calling.

"Hello, godmother!"

Su Xiaodan now has a deep affection for Mrs. Du, so it is also very kind and natural to call her godmother.

Vice Mayor Su and his wife heard her call godmother, their eyes lit up, and they hurriedly signaled Su Xiaodan to turn on the speaker.

"Hehe, Dandan is good, are you in Mingguang or Wushui now?"

"Godmother, I'm in Mingguang. ”

"Where are you going to spend the New Year, is it in your own house or in Xiao Leng's house?"

Su Xiaodan's face turned red all of a sudden, and he said cowardly: "Godmother, I haven't married Xiaotian yet, why did I go to his house for the New Year?"

In fact, she had already told her parents last night that she was going to go to Lengxi Village with Sneng Xiaotian for the New Year. But she was too embarrassed to tell Mrs. Du, so she lied a little.

Mrs. Du was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Dandan, I won't go back to the capital during the Spring Festival this year, so I'll spend the New Year in the provincial capital with your godfather." You know, your godfather is during the Chinese New Year, and he can't have a lot of time to spend with me. Let's see if you can discuss it with your parents, you will come to my house in two days and spend a Spring Festival with your godmother. Dandan, my godmother really misses you, and I also want to have a relative to watch TV and keep a vigil with me on Chinese New Year's Eve, I don't know if my request is too much? I know that your parents only have one daughter, if it really can't work, forget it!"

Su Xiaodan wanted to go back to Lengxi Village with Sneng Xiaotian for the New Year, and originally wanted to refuse Mrs. Du, but saw her parents staring at her with wide eyes and nodding vigorously at her, meaning that she would quickly agree to Mrs. Du's request.

Su Xiaodan had no choice but to say: "Godmother, I miss you too! If you really want to come to spend the Spring Festival with you, I will come over tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." ”

"Really, Dandan, I'll call a car tomorrow to pick you up in Mingguang in person. My godmother doesn't go to work now, and I don't have anyone to chat with every day. It's good that you're here, as long as your godmother sees you, her heart will be extra comfortable, and this day will be full. ”

Mrs. Du said impatiently over there.

"No, godmother, it's too much trouble. I'll take a ride tomorrow, it's very convenient. ”

"Okay, I'll buy some food tomorrow morning and wait for you at home, buy your favorite squid for you to eat!"

After hanging up the phone, Vice Mayor Su and his family smiled happily. Li Mingfang pulled her aside and advised: "Dandan, when you go to Secretary Du's house, you have to get up early every day, don't sleep in bed like at home." Be diligent, take the initiative to help your godmother do some housework, and leave a good impression on the two of them. Also, the most important point is that you should mention your father's matter at the appropriate time, and ask your godmother to talk to Secretary Du, and find ways to bring your father up this time. After all, we're relatives now!"

Su Xiaodan couldn't go to Wushui for the New Year with Sneng Xiaotian, and she was very unhappy, seeing her mother nagging, she said impatiently: "Mom, I know! But I'm still a little embarrassed to mention Dad!"

Li Mingfang was about to further enlighten her daughter, when Sneer's mobile phone suddenly rang, and at first glance, it was Secretary Su's number.

"Xiao Leng, the thing you just said is now a little bit of a turnaround. ”

"Really? What a turnaround?"

"That's right: Gu Qi, the secretary of the Central Committee Bai, is from our Tiannan Yingchuan City. A few days ago, his mother died, and he returned to Yingchuan to mourn. Now that the funeral has been completed, he is going to the provincial capital tomorrow, and asks me to take him to the antique market in the south of the city in the afternoon to see if I can find any antique and old goods such as the four treasures of the study and calligraphy and paintings for Secretary Bai, and he will take a plane back the morning after tomorrow. I mean: You have a very good relationship with Secretary Bai, see if you can use this relationship to ask Secretary Gu to come forward and invite Governor Cheng and Minister Ouyang Wen to come out and have a meal with you, and bring up Vice Mayor Su's question during the banquet. Let me tell you: Governor Cheng is now a little contradictory to Secretary Du, he is anxious to find a backer at the central decision-making level, and wants to move up a step to other provinces to become a leader. And the backer he wants to find the most is Secretary Bai. Because he knew that Secretary Bai had just entered the decision-making level, and his ranking at the decision-making level was still rising. This time, Secretary Gu came back for the funeral, and he called him several times to ask him to have a meal. But Secretary Gu has been by Secretary Bai's side for a long time, and he knows that Secretary Bai doesn't like the secretary and the people below him coming and going, so he finds an excuse to shirk it every time. If you can get Secretary Gu to come forward, I guess Vice Mayor Su's matter will be easy to solve. ”

"Secretary Su, I don't know Secretary Gu! Although I have been to Secretary Bai's house many times, Secretary Bai is very careful about my health care for the two of them, except for his nanny, no one knows about it. How am I going to talk to him?"

Secretary Su pondered for a moment and said, "I have an idea, you and Vice Mayor Su will come over tomorrow and I'll tell you in detail." However, you want Vice Mayor Su to ask a friend tonight to see if anyone has a collection of antiques and old goods such as the four treasures of the study and calligraphy and paintings, and they don't want anything particularly valuable, just ordinary - this thing must be prepared before coming to the provincial capital tomorrow!"

Sneer's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered something at home, so he said to Secretary Su: "Okay, no problem, I promise to bring something good tomorrow!"
