Wang Yuanqiao is the number one in Lingnan, Song Wei is the number one in Mindong, both of them are powerful feudal officials, and they are also heavyweight officials in the second generation of the core circle of the Chen family, both of them are only in their early fifties, which is the best age for their careers, and the two have one thing in common on the road to officialdom promotion, that is, they have successively served as the office director when the old man was still working in Zhongnanhai, so they can be called the henchmen of the old man's hands. Coupled with Chen Yaoguo, the leader of Yanjing, and Chen Yang, who is now rising like a comet in the domestic political arena, the four of them constitute the core political force of the Chen family, of course, this does not include the influence of the Chen family in the army, in fact, the influence of the old man in the army is far greater than that of the locality.

And the old man uncharacteristically mentioned things at work to Chen Yang today, especially asking him to take the time to meet the descendants of these two old men, which is somewhat of a taste of arranging things after death.

Although Chen Yang actually knew very well in his heart that his grandfather's time was really running out, this feeling still made Chen Yang feel very uncomfortable.

"Grandpa, you" The corners of Chen Yang's mouth moved slightly, hesitated for a moment, and finally said softly, "I will find a time to meet with Secretary Yuanqiao and Secretary Song Wei for a good chat."

"Alright, Young." The old man waved his hand, interrupted Chen Yang, and said with a smile, "Grandpa is old and doesn't have much energy, just arrange your young people's affairs by yourself, don't talk to me too much."

Chen Yang nodded. Didn't say anything more.

"I also heard about what happened in Huahai a while ago, Xiao Yang, you did a good job in this matter, in the final analysis, being an official is the same as being a person, maybe you can be more sleek and modest, but there are some principles and bottom lines that must be adhered to, grandpa will give you another sentence today, you must know how to advance and retreat as an official. Understand 'willingness'"

Chen Yang knew that the old man was talking about the car accident at the moment. He didn't interject, just silently listened to the old man's teachings, and savored the experience that the old man had summed up almost with a lifetime of experience.

Are you willing to do it?

Grandpa is afraid that what he really wants to sue me is the way of the official. There is a give-and-take

The old man looked at Chen Yang, the successor he had cultivated. A loving smile appeared on his face. To be honest, now Chen Yang's achievements in Huahai have far exceeded his imagination, and Chen Yang is becoming more and more mature and experienced in the officialdom. It also made him, an old man who was about to die, very pleased, and now it seems that his decision to help Chen Yang on the horse and send him off again was undoubtedly very correct, and he slowly transitioned the power into the hands of a capable and principled young generation like Chen Yang, and he could also rest assured that he could go down there to drink with those old comrades-in-arms who left too early.

"I just returned to Beijing, and I haven't had time to eat dinner yet, right?" The old man barely cheered up and asked Chen Yang with a smile.

Chen Yang shook his head: "It's okay, grandpa, I'm not hungry yet." ”

"Hehe, come, help grandpa go back, and I'll have a drink with grandpa later." As he spoke, the old man got up from the bench with a hard grip.

Seeing this, Chen Yang hurriedly grabbed the old man's arm, and carefully helped the old man up from the bench.

"Grandpa, Dr. Liao has told me, don't drink, I'll accompany you to eat something." Chen Yang persuaded with some concern.

The old man shook his hand with a smile and said, "Hehe, it's not in the way, it's not in the way, if I don't hurry up and drink two cups of old bones, I'm afraid I won't have the ability to drink it after a while."

The old man's mental state is indeed not very good, after Chen Yang accompanied the old man to eat something briefly, the old man went back to the room to rest under the care of the health care doctor, Chen Yang did not stay, after watching the old man sleep, he left the old man's residence.

Outside the gate of the compound, the black Audi car of Huahai's Beijing Office was still quietly parked at the door, and a good-looking middle-aged woman was waiting next to the Audi car.

This middle-aged beautiful woman is the director of the Beijing Office, Zhang Yan, speaking of which, she is also the person promoted by Chen Yang, but Chen Yang's secretary is the director of the Beijing Office, she really doesn't have much to do, and she has a headache in the past to deal with all aspects of the relationship between various ministries and commissions in the capital, but since Chen Yang arrived in Huahai, she has been much easier, basically all the project approvals and other Chen Yang can almost get it done with a phone call, at most she is just an errand role in various ministries and commissions. It's just that in this way, her work performance is not so outstanding, which also directly leads to the fact that in the past few years, she still hasn't been able to move her nest, and has been staying in the Beijing Office as this deputy director, if she doesn't complain in her heart, it is definitely impossible.

Of course, even if she is not satisfied, she can only hold it in her stomach, seeing that Chen Yang has just walked out of the courtyard gate, she quickly greeted her with a smile, and respectfully opened the rear compartment door for Chen Yang, and asked: "Secretary Chen, are you done." ”

Chen Yang was slightly surprised, "Director Zhang, why haven't you left yet, didn't I tell you not to wait for me in front of you?" While speaking, Chen Yang lowered his head and got into the back compartment, and after sitting down, he asked the front, "Director Zhang, you haven't eaten yet, have you?" ”

"Hehe, don't get in the way, secretary, it's rare for you to come here, it's still early, see if you can come to our Beijing office to sit down, say a few words to the comrades, encourage the enthusiasm of the comrades, the big guys are waiting for you to come."

Zhang Yan turned his head halfway and asked with a smile.

Chen Yang thought for a moment before smiling and said, "Forget it, I have to go to see a friend later, so you can quickly call the office and ask the comrades not to wait." ”

"Oh, that's good, secretary." Zhang Yan hurriedly agreed, but she was a little disappointed in her heart, after all, after she received the notice from the Municipal Party Committee Office, she was busy all day, just waiting for Chen Yang to come to the Beijing Office to take a look, but Chen Yang didn't plan to go. This isn't a big guy who has been busy all day in vain?

"Hehe, Director Zhang, I still have to take some time to visit your Beijing Office in the next two days."

Chen Yang's words made Zhang Yan's heart warm again, and her brain spun quickly, thinking about how to show the work achievements of the Beijing Office in front of Secretary Chen.

"That, Master Huang, you just send me to the Yanjing Hotel." Chen Yang explained to the driver again.

Master Huang is an old man from the Beijing Office. I've been driving in the office. He never expected that Secretary Chen would still know what his surname was, and he was as excited as if he had been beaten with chicken blood, and hurriedly agreed: "Okay, Secretary Chen." ”

In fact, Chen Yang originally wanted to go back to his home in the courtyard to rest. But when facing the old man's residence. Niu Hulu called him. I had to meet him, he thought that there was no one at home anyway, Ruonan took Xiao Chen Ze and Xiao Chen Xi to his parents in Ningxi since the college vacation. Xian'er also followed, Lin Yu was still touring in Lingnan, Li Qiuhe was talking about the project in Jinling, Xiang Jin was still staying in the United States, Min Roushang went back to Huahai, and a few days after returning to Beijing, he followed a working group to Liaodong under the arrangement of the ministry, and none of the women stayed at home, it didn't matter if he didn't go back so early, and he hadn't seen the kid Niu Hulu for a while, since he happened to be in Beijing, it was good to meet and chat for a while.

It's just that Chen Yang didn't know at this time, he was put on a solid stand by this unreliable old buddy, and when he arrived at the Yanjing Hotel, he realized that it was not the bastard Niu Hulu who told him to have two drinks alone and chat, but a small gathering of a large group of Yanda alumni.

After getting out of the car at the gate of the Yanjing Hotel, Chen Yang explained a few words to Zhang Yan: "Director Zhang, you can go back to rest with Master Huang later, I may have to talk to my friends here." ”

"Hey, yes, secretary."

Zhang Yan replied respectfully, but she made up her mind in her heart, just find a place to eat casually with Lao Huang later, anyway, she must continue to stay and wait for the big boss, after all, she has not had the opportunity to show her face in front of Chen Yang a few times a year, such a good opportunity cannot be missed in vain, no matter whether the big boss wants to use the car later, it is definitely not a bad thing to show loyalty anyway.

Chen Yang waved his hand, turned around and walked into the lobby.

"Sir, have you booked a spot?" A counselor girl in a cheongsam greeted her and asked with a smile.

Chen Yang was slightly stunned, he just heard Lao Niu say that he would meet at the Yanjing Hotel, but this kid didn't say which box he booked.

Thinking of this, he smiled and gestured to the beautiful counselor, then took out his mobile phone from his purse and dialed the number of the gourd.

The phone was quickly connected, and Chen Yang asked impatiently: "Lao New, I'm here, what about you?" Didn't you say you arrived early? ”

"Hehe, I didn't go out again for a while, in this way, Chen Yang, you go to the Huangshan Hall on the third floor first, you can go in if you say it's Yanda, I'll be there soon, you must wait for me."

There was a cheap laugh on the phone, and he didn't say much, so he quickly hung up the phone after telling Chen Yang the specific location.

After hanging up the phone, Chen Yang was still a little confused, he was also a frequent visitor to the Yanjing Hotel, and naturally knew that the welcome halls like Huangshan Hall and Beihai Hall were not small boxes for a few people to eat, they were generally used for large-scale entertainment, and one hall could accommodate one hundred and eighty people. And I met with Lao Niu and chatted casually, as for booking such a big banquet hall?

This old button is really getting more and more unreliable! What did he go out to do things temporarily, I think he has just returned to the capital.

Chen Yang sneered a few words in his stomach, although he couldn't figure it out, he still smiled at the beautiful counselor and said, "In this way, comrade, please take me to Huangshan Hall." ”

"Yes, sir, please come with me." The counselor pursed his lips and smiled, turned and led the way.

And Chen Yang's guess was right, in fact, the kid Gourd had just gotten off the plane, and now he was hurrying to this side.

When Chen Yang went up to the third floor and came to the Huangshan Hall, he was taken aback, only to see that at this time, a big sign was placed on both sides of the front door of the hall, which read "Yan University Alumni Association" and "Yan University Celebrity Ten Years Reunion Dinner", and there was also a sign-in table at the door. A couple of young men and women, who looked like staff members, were busy checking in for the guests who kept coming to the table.

Seeing these two scaring brands, Chen Yang finally understood completely, daring to feel that he was being visited by a gourd, this bastard just wanted to come over to join in the fun, what did he deceive himself for? Especially what kind of "people of the year get together again in ten years", isn't it a dinner party for so-called successful people like Gourd?

Chen Yang didn't have the heart to stay here to participate in this kind of boring dinner, so he immediately took out his mobile phone to call Newgourd, but he never thought that this kid would turn off his phone at this time.

It can't be helped, after all, they are friends who have been friends for many years. Niu Hulu knows Chen Yang very well. Knowing that Chen Yang would definitely not want to stay after figuring it out, he simply turned off his mobile phone, forcing Chen Yang to stay here and wait for him to come over.

Depend on!

Chen Yang scolded secretly, although he knew that the gourd must have turned off the mobile phone on purpose. But he didn't. I can only go to the sign-in desk and sign in.

When you pick up the sign-in sheet. Chen Yang was really taken aback, only to see that more than a dozen people had signed in front of the form in his hand, and these alumni were frighteningly famous. Either the president of so-and-so or the director of so-and-so, or the organ cadres of a provincial-level unit, in short, they really responded to the content written on the sign at the door, and they were all celebrities and figures.

Chen Yang glanced at it roughly, but he didn't see the classmates in his class, of course, he only had one of the stacks of sign-in sheets in his hand, and as for whether there were other tables on the other tables, there were classmates in his class back then who also came to participate in this bloody dinner, he didn't know.

And Chen Yang adheres to the usual low-key, and writes very simply on the sign-in sheet, just writing his name, which class he graduated from and what major, and then filling in a few words of the Huahai Municipal Party Committee in the column of the work unit, as for the position, he just wrote the word "secretary" in a matter-of-fact manner.

Back to the female alumni who was responsible for signing in, this girl looks like she is eighteen or nineteen years old, it seems that she should be a student of Yan University, eighty percent or a cadre of the student union, this is not surprising, generally this kind of sorority will contact the school, and the school depends on the situation, to put it bluntly, it is to look at the specifications of the sorority to formulate the school attendees, if it is a department party, it is natural to send a department leader to mean it, if it is like the person in front of him who is scared to death and then look back at the dinner party for ten years, Maybe we'll be able to bring in a few of the current school leaders. As we all know, the student union cadres are nothing more than the horse boys of the school leaders, and this kind of large-scale sorority will naturally be used as free labor.

After the young female alumnus took the sign-in sheet handed over by Chen Yang, she glanced at it quickly, then frowned, and stopped Chen Yang, who was about to turn around and leave: "Hey, this alumnus, don't be in a hurry to leave first." ”

Chen Yang was slightly stunned, although it was a little strange, but he still stopped and asked, "What's the matter, little comrade?" ”

Hearing Chen Yang's title of scum, this girl was a little unhappy, but it was cultivated by the student union, and her joy and anger finally did not show it, but she continued to frown, pointed to the column filled in by Chen Yang on the sign-in form and said: "This alumnus, you are not clear enough here, please write it clearly before entering." ”

"Not really, right? Isn't it just an alumni association? Does it need to be written so clearly? Chen Yang was puzzled.

The girl couldn't hold it back, and pouted with an uncertain face: "This alumni, this alumni association is of a very high standard, and we have to enter all the alumni information that came tonight into the computer, and then print and distribute the souvenirs and send them back to the participating alumni, you see that the position of the unit you write here is very vague, the unit is the Huahai Municipal Party Committee, and the position is the secretary, you said that if we make a mistake when we turn around, we really send the alumni your souvenirs to the hands of your Huahai Municipal Party Committee Secretary, so isn't it a big joke?" ”

Chen Yang couldn't cry or laugh when he heard this, he finally didn't like to pretend to be teased, so he simply said directly: "Uh, this little comrade, you can just send it according to this address when the time comes, it shouldn't be wrong, hehe, I am indeed the Huahai Municipal Party Committee"

Before Chen Yang could finish speaking, the girl couldn't help but interrupt him with a straight face: "Hey, this alumnus, I said why can't you tell you that you can't understand?" We are here today for a very strict and formal dinner, I know that you are from the Huahai Municipal Party Committee, but you have to write down which department of the Huahai Municipal Party Committee you are in and what position you hold, right? ”

"Little comrade, don't worry, I'm not just about to tell you." Chen Yang sweated and said urgently.

But the girl frowned and looked at the endless stream of guests who wanted to come to sign in, and said impatiently: "Okay, you hurry up, I'll help you change it, which department of the Huahai Municipal Party Committee?" ”

"It was run by the municipal party committee." Chen Yang replied helplessly.

"Is it run by the municipal party committee?" The girl's face looked a little better, obviously although she was not very old, she was very clear about the structure of the officialdom, and knew what the golden signboard of Huahai, a provincial-level city, meant.

"Okay, go on, which department is under the Municipal Party Committee Office?" The girl continued to ask questions quickly.

Which department?

Chen Yang really couldn't answer, so he could only frown and replied: "From the secretary's office." ”

"Oh, from the secretary's office? Alumnus, you shouldn't be the secretary of the municipal party committee, right? The girl's face was even better, and she even showed a little admiration and admiration. (To be continued......)
