The next day, Monday.

The municipal government will conduct public bidding for investment projects.

Ye Tingshen also arrived at the city hall in advance as usual, got out of the car and closed the door, but he didn't expect to be suddenly surrounded before he reached the gate!

Surrounded by a group of reporters, to be exact.

Immediately after, a barrage of questions was thrown out, and he was not given any chance to react at all.

"Mayor Ye, I heard that you are in charge of this bidding, right?"

"Mayor Ye, many powerful companies in the city will participate in this bidding, including the Su Group, is there such a thing?"

"Mayor Ye, we got the news that Mr. Su, the president of the Su Group, is related to you, and his sister is your wife, will you decide on the Su Group?"

"This bidding is just a formality, because the Su Group has been decided, is this news true? Mayor Ye, can you please answer? ”

The problem continued, and Ye Tingshen hooked his lips without a trace.

Default?

Motions?

Scold......

Seeing that Ye Tingshen did not react, a bold reporter raised the microphone and stretched it out in front of Ye Tingshen, and deliberately raised his voice: "Mayor Ye, does your silence represent acquiescence?" ”

Ye Ting turned around deeply and looked directly at the reporter who was speaking.

Maybe his eyes were too sharp, and the reporter couldn't help shrinking his body, but he still continued to speak, looking righteous: "Mayor Ye, we have the right to know the truth!" I hope you can say it briefly! ”

"Mayor Ye!" As soon as Xu Cheng heard the news that he was surrounded by reporters, he immediately rushed over, and his brows were furrowed, "Everyone, we ...... it."

"Secretary Xu." Ye Tingshen calmly interrupted what he wanted to say next, and with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said to the reporters around him with a seemingly gentle smile, "The bidding meeting has not officially started yet, and the relevant questions are not yet inconvenient to answer, but what everyone asked just now, I think it is really necessary to talk to you." ”

As soon as he said this, the reporters instantly became excited, scrambling to rush forward, fearing that if they fell behind, they would not be able to grab the headlines.

Xu Cheng kept an eye on them while protecting Ye Tingshen from being bumped into.

Eagle eyes quickly swept over the crowd, Ye Ting cleared his throat deeply, smiled and said solemnly: "First, the Su Group did participate in the bidding meeting, this bidding meeting is for all powerful enterprises, what is the situation of the Su Group in City A, I don't need to say that everyone knows everything." As for the internal decision, I don't know where you got the news, although the bidding will be said to be in charge of me, but I am not the only one who can decide, saying that it is the internal decision, everyone may think too highly of me, I don't have the ability yet, and I won't have that kind of idea. In the end, which company wins the bid depends on their respective strength and ability. ”

Taking a step forward, he looked directly at the reporter just now, and his voice was clear: "That's all I have to say, and the rest, I'm sorry, it's inconvenient to disclose." ”

After that, he ignored the reporter's voice again, turned around and walked towards the building, and handed over the rest to Xu Cheng.

Office.

Ye Tingshen sat on the chair, his right hand unconsciously tapping on the table, but his mind was thinking about the situation below just now.

"Mayor Ye." Xu Cheng knocked on the door and came in.

"Got it done?" Ye Tingshen didn't raise his eyelids.

"Deal with it," Xu Cheng nodded, his eyes flashing with incredulity, "Mayor Ye, there are very few people in the city who know about the relationship between you and Mr. Su, let alone the media, but today you suddenly made such a show, is it for the afternoon bidding meeting?" ”

Ye Ting tugged at the corners of his mouth, like disdain and as if he understood: "I know who released the news, it was indeed for the bidding meeting." ”

He didn't hide it from Xu Cheng, he always trusted Xu Cheng.

"Then ......" Xu Cheng hesitated a little, "If there is unfavorable news coming out again, I'm afraid it will be very unfavorable to you and the bidding meeting." ”

"I know." Ye Ting opened his eyes deeply, and a hint of fierceness flashed quickly in them, "The bidding meeting is still as usual, don't worry about this for the time being, just push the boat down the river." ”

Xu Cheng understood it at one point, and there was a smile on his face: "Understood, then I'll go and prepare first." ”

"Yes, go ahead."

Ye Tingshen was not affected in the slightest, and still handled the work as usual.

However, not long after, Xu Cheng knocked on the door again, his face was slightly solemn: "Mayor Ye, Secretary Yang from the province is here." ”

Secretary Yang?

What is he doing at this time?

Ye Ting was deeply puzzled, but he never showed a point on his face.

Soon, Secretary Yang was welcomed in, and with him, there was also his secretary.

"Secretary Yang." Ye Tingshen walked over.

"Ting Shen." Secretary Yang nodded, his lips moved and moved, as if he wanted to say something but was very embarrassed.

Ye Tingshen smiled: "I don't know what Secretary Yang is here." "Since the last time he introduced Xia Yan, the two haven't had much contact, even as world friends. And this time, before the bidding meeting, he thought that the provincial party secretary came over, apparently for bidding. If the reporter can get the news, of course he will too.

Thinking of this, Ye Tingshen was not in a hurry, he wanted to see how Secretary Yang would speak.

Secretary Yang glanced up at him, and when he saw that he looked frank and relaxed, he was a little suspicious in his heart, could it be that the news was wrong? He also knows what this kid is like, but he ......

"Secretary ......" The secretary on the side gently reminded him in his ear, "The province is still waiting for your reply?" ”

Although the voice was soft, after all, it was not far away, and Ye Tingshen still heard it.

Provincial? He smiled noncommittally.

After being reminded by the secretary, Secretary Yang finally spoke, explaining his intention with a serious face: "Ting Shen, I won't tell you, I came this time because of the meaning of the province, and there are some things that need to be verified with you." ”

"Secretary Yang, please speak." The corners of Ye Tingshen's mouth were smiling, and his bearing was extraordinary.

Secretary Yang asked in a deep voice: "I heard that the Su Group in your city A also participated in this bidding meeting?" ”

Sure enough, it's for this.

Ye Ting smiled deeply, met his inquiring gaze without dodging, and generously admitted: "Yes." Then, without waiting for him to speak, he said, "Does Secretary Yang still want to ask me about my relationship with the president of the Su Group?" And whether the bidding meeting has a Su Group? ”

was preemptively said first, Secretary Yang's face was a little unbearable for a while, and he sneered: "Ting Shen, I'm ...... You ......"

Ye Tingshen didn't give him time to buffer the embarrassment, put away his smile and returned to a cold appearance in front of people: "Secretary Yang, since I took office as the mayor of City A, I have not done anything to be sorry for this position, and I disdain to do things that abuse power for personal gain." ”

"Ting Shen, you misunderstood what Uncle Yang meant." Secretary Yang looked a little anxious, so he simply used the elder card, but unfortunately, he was facing Ye Tingshen, not someone else.

"Uncle Yang," Ye Tingshen smiled lightly, "Then let's use this identity, Uncle Yang, I can be regarded as the one you grew up watching, do you still have doubts about my character?" The body is not afraid of the shadow bend, and the matter that is determined is completely a rumor. If Su has the ability and can be unanimously recognized at the bidding meeting, naturally this project will be handed over to him, and if his skills are not as good as others, I will not have to appoint him because of personal relations. ”

Secretary Yang became more and more embarrassed, and opened his mouth to say something to save it, but was interrupted by him again.

"Moreover, if I really want to show favoritism, Xia Yan, just rely on the back of his Xia family in the capital. Jing, as well as the relationship with the former secretary of the municipal party committee, I can completely refuse him to participate in the bidding meeting and not give him any chance. Secretary Yang, do you say yes? Ye Tingshen looked at him, his face was pale, but his expression was unquestionable.

Secretary Yang was so weak that he couldn't say a word.

"Secretary!" The secretary on the side was a little anxious, and couldn't help but say out loud, "But the meaning of the province ......"

Ye Ting looked at the secretary who didn't hide his emotions well without a trace, and he had a little bit in his heart, it seemed that it was not only revealed to the media, but Xia Yan's hand was also stretched out to the province.

Heh, I really underestimated Xia Yan's power.

Thinking of this, he took retreat as advance: "If Secretary Yang is not at ease, he can participate in this bidding meeting throughout the process." ”

"This ......" Secretary Yang was a little embarrassed, he felt it, his words today may have hurt Ting Shen's heart, but he couldn't help it.

The secretary on the side was afraid that he would miss this opportunity, so he hurriedly said, "Secretary, this couldn't be better." ”

Ye Tingshenquan didn't look at their small movements, and his face was still light.

Secretary Yang thought about it again and again, and finally agreed: "Then so be it, after all, the province also attaches great importance to this project, and it is not allowed to be sloppy." You say yes, Tingshen? He looked up at Ye Tingshen, but was confused by his eyes.

I don't know why, he always feels that Ye Tingshen's eyes can see through a lot of things, even if he has been in officialdom for so many years, he seems to be able to be seen thoroughly in front of Ye Tingshen.

coughed uncomfortably, and without waiting for Ye Tingshen to answer, Secretary Yang said as if unintentionally: "Actually, the province is still more optimistic about the Xia Group, after all, the strength is recognized, and I actually wanted to cooperate with the Xia family at the beginning, but I didn't expect you to open the bidding." Hehe......"

Finally got to the point? Ye Tingshen couldn't help but sneer in his heart, let's put it simply, letting Xia Yan win the bid is the ultimate goal.

After Secretary Yang finished speaking, he found that Ye Tingshen did not respond, and he was lost face three times and twice today, and he was a little unhappy at this time, so when he spoke again, his tone was a little tougher: "Tingshen, in fact, this is what the province agreed after a meeting, there are many things you have to consider about this project, and all aspects must be taken into account, understand?" ”

"Thank you, Secretary Yang, for the reminder." Ye Tingshen looked humbly taught, but he didn't express his position completely, and Secretary Yang and his secretary couldn't help but get anxious.

In a hurry, the secretary blurted out: "Mayor Ye, do you really not understand what we mean?" ”
