Chapter 198: Starting All Over (13)
Sixty years with spring
Chapter 198
Start over again (13)
Che Hongxuan arranged the company's affairs, talked to Yu Yang again, and then drove to the ancient city. At this time, the sky is already clear, due to the high ground temperature and the warm sun, the snow on the road has melted, although it is still relatively wet but not slippery, you can drive with great relaxation.
He knows that the stakes are very high, not only for this year, but also for the rest of his life. In addition to bidding projects, there are several major things to do, and they are all in the heat of the day. The most bottomless thing is the 200,000 yuan owed for the decoration of Wang Yutian Hotel and the 300,000 yuan for the service, and there is no guarantee whether there can be a problem. In order to prevent Wang Yutian from saying it to death, he didn't dare to call Wang Yutian. There is also a difficulty in the insurance company's debt of more than one million, Manager Tan went in after an accident, Zhang Liping was transferred, Liu Bin ran away, and none of the handlers were gone, of course, the situation is not optimistic. Fortunately, the insurance company is a serious unit, not like Wang Yutian. Most of the money from the insurance company belongs to Liu Bin, and if Liu Bin does not come back, the company can certainly use it for turnover.
If all of the above sums fail, although there may be a difficult situation, it is not a dead end, and it is impossible for several sums of money to have problems at the same time. As long as the project in the development zone is completed, the advance payment will be in place immediately, and there will be no problem in surviving the difficulties, Che Hongxuan is convinced of this.
Before getting on the highway, Che Hongxuan parked his car in the parking lot and prepared to make a few phone calls. As soon as he got on the road, he thought of Li Siyu and Zhang Dahua. It dawned on him that he had made a serious mistake, and it had been so long since the accident came out that he hadn't called the two of them once, which was too much to explain. In any case, he couldn't disappear this time, so he called Zhang Dahua hard. Fortunately, Zhang Dahua didn't say anything, and promised to eat at the coarse grain restaurant in front of the station at noon. called Gu Mingyuan again, and Gu Mingyuan said that he could only go back at night when he was out of town. He didn't know if this was true, because he obviously felt that Gu Mingyuan was more distant from Zhang Dahua and Li Siyu, and he was always so lukewarm. He called Li Siyu again, but he didn't expect to answer, he didn't answer several times in a row, and then simply turned off the phone. There was no way, he called Zhang Dahua again to ask about the situation.
Zhang Dahua smiled and said, "You don't have to care, I'll be on time at half past eleven." ”
Che Hongxuan put down the phone inexplicably and drove on the highway.
It was still early to arrive in the ancient city, and he remembered to call Chen Jun. Chen Jun told him to go to No. 9 Hot Spring Road. He didn't know what kind of place it was, and it was clear that it was a place to receive foreign guests and important leaders, and it was called "Friendship Villa" to the outside world, and the location was in the mountains southeast of the development zone, not far from the "hot spring villa" where he and Gu Mingyuan had been.
After several twists and turns, Che Hongxuan drove the car to the "Friendship Villa".
The gates are heavily guarded, and the guards are heavily armed. Secretary Chen Jun drove the car out to pick up Che Hongxuan in. Che Hongxuan followed the secretary and drove slowly inside, looking around as he drove. If you don't look at it, you can see it twice: Hey, good place! The pine and cypress are planted all over the garden, and the stars on the trees are still falling to the ground with white snow, shining in the sun; The small western-style building of the second and third floors is hidden in the middle of the ten thousand trees; The pines and cypresses, poplars and willows on both sides of the road, as well as the apple, pear, cherry, and hawthorn trees in the garden are hung with LED string lights of various colors, and you can imagine how gorgeous it is at night; Occasionally, a squirrel would run up to the road with its furry tail cocked, look around and run back into the woods; There are a lot of cars parked on the side of the road and in front of the western-style building, all of them are good cars, although it rained last night and snowed in the morning, none of the cars are not clean, and they are reflected in the shadows of the trees; A few of the people who cleaned up looked back at the old and dirty car, which had probably not been here for a long time.
I didn't expect that there would be such a place in a small ancient city, and its seclusion and luxury were no less than five-star hotels.
Che Hongxuan had a strange feeling, he had an indescribable inferiority complex, he felt that his status in society was so low, which hurt his self-esteem a little.
In front of the gate of Building 7, there are still two guards standing guard.
Che Hongxuan thought: This is majestic enough, no wonder everyone wants to be an official.
The secretary accompanied him to Chen Jun's office on the third floor, but there was no one in the room. Needless to say, the office is wide and natural, and the most amazing thing is that there are windows on all sides, so you can look out of the windows in every direction as long as you are happy. The secretary invited Che Hongxuan to sit on the sofa, poured him tea, said hello and turned to go out. As soon as he entered the door, he saw a calligraphy and painting hanging on the opposite wall, which was very eye-catching, and it was not in harmony with the warm atmosphere in the room, with eight large characters written on it: "The teacher of the past does not forget the future".
Che Hongxuan recognized this as Chen Jun's ink at a glance, and couldn't help but be shocked: Didn't he write it for himself? He knew Chen Jun very well and decided that this was the case, otherwise there would be no reason to hang such a nondescript thing here. It seems to be well-intentioned, but I feel self-pity when I think about it.
More than half an hour passed, Chen Juncai walked in slowly with a notepad in his hand, looked at Che Hongxuan with a rare smile and said, "Heh, big boss, it's strange to see you, if I don't look for you, you will avoid it." ”
"No, it's not good for you to be a big leader and just bother."
"Please come over and talk, lest you engage in a business and pull a car without looking at the road."
Che Hongxuan nodded and smiled, pointed to the calligraphy and painting, and said, "It's for me, right?" ”
Chen Jun sat down and said, "If you like it, I'll give it to you." ”
Che Hongxuan lowered his head to drink tea, thought about it, raised his head and said with a smile: "It's quite generous here, it can also be said to be vivid!" ”
Chen Jun added some water to Che Hongxuan, poured tea himself, sat on the sofa and said, "I won't come here without foreign affairs activities." Let me tell you something, during the Spring Festival, I met the leader of my former work unit, and he said that this year, the province will face the open recruitment of some important jobs in large state-owned enterprises, and reduce the number of talents without sticking to one pattern. This is a very difficult matter, which requires not only a high political quality and a higher education, but also many years of work tempering and rich management experience, and being able to take charge of the party on its own or in one side. Because we were the first batch after the resumption of the college entrance examination, the leaders asked me to recommend it. I thought the opportunity was good, so I talked about you, but I didn't expect the leader to care very much. This is a big deal, about your future and destiny, and I hope you will think about it seriously. Of course, I know that so far, you are still the only one in my circle of friends who goes to the sea to do business, and it takes a lot of courage. ”
Che Hongxuan didn't expect this kind of good thing, which is different from going back to a distant company, and also different from going to Yongfeng Aluminum, which is a step to the sky. But think about the workers in the company, think about the farmers in the mountains, think about Xianglan, think about Jiaojiao, think about Lao Shi and Yu Yang, think about the long march of 10,000 miles to take the step of going to the sea to do business. All this made him difficult to let go, his heart was complicated, he was speechless for a while, and fell into deep thought.
Chen Jun took a sip of tea and said slowly: "I don't ask questions like this, I don't want to consider our relationship, I want to recommend a person who has the ability to work and dares to adhere to principles." I know you, and you have what it takes. You have worked in a large enterprise for so many years, and now you have managed the enterprise yourself, accumulated rich experience, and have learned a lot of hard lessons, which is a rare and valuable asset. ”
Che Hongxuan said simply: "I know very well that this kind of thing often needs to be done by finding a relationship, and this is what the society says about spending money to buy officials." I'm touched that you can think of me and be willing to take such a big risk for me------"
Chen Jun waved his hand and smiled: "Needless to say, you have to consider that the country has cultivated you for so many years, it is important to consider where you can contribute more to the country, and of course, you must also consider the second half of your life." Maybe people like us who come out of the school gates are not inherently unfit to do business. ”
Che Hongxuan understood what this meant, and he also knew that this was indeed a great thing. Many people dream of it, but they can't do it with any amount of money, and the opportunity is really rare in front of them. But you can't give up halfway, you can't climb the dragon and the phoenix, no matter how difficult it is, you have to fight on the road you have chosen. Thinking that this kind of thing should not be delayed and will not benefit anyone, he resolutely said: "Actually, I do have many choices, which choice may live for ten more years, but in the end I still chose the path I want to take." It may be dull, but I still think that this choice is the right one, the only way to go, and the only way to make the greatest contribution to society. In fact, when I went to the sea, I thought about finding a relationship to go to the agency, but after thinking about it for a long time, I still made up my mind to go to the sea to do business. Over the years, I have been busy with secular entertainment, wasted my business, and almost forgot what I learned, and I didn't succeed in my career, but I developed a lot of bad habits, and I was not qualified to go to the agency, and I couldn't give up everything around me. So I can't trouble you, but I'm determined to follow the path I've chosen. ”
Chen Jun didn't expect Che Hongxuan to be so sloppy, and said after a while: "After the insurance company incident, the old woman closed your business, and now you are working in a private company, I think since this is the case, you should come to the agency, so that you can better play your strengths." ”
"I'm still starting my own business, I don't work for anyone else, I just take advantage of the fame of a big company for a while. There is no difficulty in re-registering the enterprise after it has been deregistered. ”
Chen Jun smiled lightly and said: "I told Dahua about this matter, he said that you are unlikely to agree to go to the agency, and I don't believe that you will work for others, unless you are locked up, it is impossible to give up the pursuit, it seems that he is right." ”
Che Hongxuan smiled and nodded.
Chen Jun said: "I am in favor of you to continue, and even more support you to come to the ancient city for development, but you must learn the lessons of the insurance company, if something like that happens again, it will not end well." If the conditions are not available now, practice internal skills, and then come out to work hard when the conditions are met, and it may be a good choice to take a step back. ”
Che Hongxuan nodded in agreement: "What you said is reasonable, if the conditions are not met, I will adopt your opinion." ”
Chen Jun said solemnly: "Let me give you a briefing on the situation, this year we will focus on managing government procurement, bidding and other economic fields, and strictly investigate one after another, so at this time, you must pay attention to it, and don't give those corrupt officials a funeral." The ancient city is not large, and the project of the development zone can be said to be highly anticipated. In the early stage, there were leaders of the municipal government who intervened, causing public opinion to be in a hurry, and this time we must be particularly cautious and not engage in black-box operations. ”
"I understand." Che Hongxuan nodded and replied.
"It is also necessary to intensify the crackdown on the underworld and evil forces. Although it is not far from Hunhe City, the social order is very different. Due to the rapid development, the rapid expansion of the population, and the chaotic management of the mining industry, many large-scale economic entities with the nature of the underworld have emerged. These economic entities have strict internal management, are organized, disciplined, and have weapons, and they ignore party discipline and state law, and persist in committing evil acts. Externally, it is even more hands-on-eye, so you must pay attention to the people you associate with when doing business here. ”
Che Hongxuan was stunned when he heard this, thinking of the trip to Hainan, Gao Juan was just a little girl in her twenties, and she could sell a villa for millions of dollars, which was really terrifying. Although I am afraid, I know in my heart that how can I make money without dealing with those people? This is the case, easier said than done, which may be the truth of wealth and danger.
Chen Jun's speech made Che Hongxuan worry about Gu Mingyuan, and secretly told himself in his heart that he must be careful and not fall into it.
"I still have to accompany foreign guests, you wait for me, let's have a casual meal at noon, Lala is homely." After Chen Jun finished speaking, he took down the calligraphy and painting with his own hands, rolled it up and handed it to Che Hongxuan.
Che Hongxuan took the calligraphy and painting and said, "Thank you for your good intentions, I will be cautious." I made an appointment with Zhang Dahua and Li Siyu at noon, and I won't eat at your place. ”
"Don't, let them come too."
"Is it convenient?"
"It's Sunday, it's okay at noon."
"I'll try."
"No, let them come over, we'll meet."
"Okay."
"Why is there no Gu Mingyuan?"
"He's busy."
Chen Jun said "ahhhh
Che Hongxuan called Zhang Dahua. At this time, Zhang Dahua and Li Siyu had already come to the hotel and were sitting in the private room chatting.
"Hongxuan is too unusual! It's been so long since people show up, and there are no phone calls, I can't say it, it's all bad to go to the sea to do business, and today I want to treat him! ”
Zhang Dahua smiled and said: "Don't think about it, there may be something unspeakable." ”
"Why should I make a phone call? It's too much! I don't believe it, he and Gu Mingyuan will be like this? ”
"They have business, and it's understandable to have more contacts."
"When are you going to learn? Isn't this mercenary? Li Siyu gave Zhang Dahua a few words, and when he saw that Zhang Dahua ignored him, he shouted "waiter".
The waitress was a little girl, and she arrived.
Li Siyu looked at the waiter and explained seriously: "Today I will order two dishes that your restaurant does not have, and the price of the dishes will be set casually." ”
Zhang Dahua looked at him and said, "You'd better not look foreign!" ”
"No, I've been thinking about it for a long time. In this way, to make a sauerkraut soup, that is, to make soup with minced sauerkraut, the sauerkraut needs one or two, throw an egg, and serve it to me in the largest bowl. Remember, you can't put any condiments, including salt, just use plain water, and finish to the bottom when you're done, understand? ”
The waiter looked at him with wide eyes and asked, "Can you drink this?" ”
"You just have to do it, as much as you want."
Zhang Dahua asked puzzledly: "What do you mean?" ”
"This is Hongxuan's feelings for us, let him taste it. By the way, the waiter, this dish is called Chejia private soup, and it will be named when it is served. After the end, there is a sweet potato stew, first serve this dish and a soup, and then prepare five dishes: a wandering chicken stewed with red mushrooms, a sauce stewed loach, a dried beans in a pot, a sauce platter, and a plate of fried peanuts. The next few dishes can't be served without my words, do you hear clearly? ”
"Understood." The waiter said yes and turned around and went out.
"What do you mean by sweet potato stew?" Zhang Dahua looked at Li Siyu with a smile and asked.
"He took the two of us local melons, he was potatoes!"
"How do you arrange seven? According to the old saying in the countryside, there is a saying that the three, five, and seven dishes are all scolding, and they are entertained by Wang Ba. Zhang Dahua asked puzzledly, he didn't understand why Li Siyu thought of playing a prank like this.
Li Siyu narrowed his eyes and said, "Six dishes and one soup, how can it be single?" ”
While the two were talking, the waiter walked in with tears in his eyes, looked at Li Siyu and said, "Boss, the chef said that he couldn't do the one dish and one soup you ordered first, for fear of being beaten, and the boss scolded me." ”
"I'll go with you." Li Siyu saw the little girl crying, got off the kang, put on her shoes and went out with the waiter.
Zhang Dahua sat there and laughed secretly.
This belated meal was something they had their own thoughts on. Che Hongxuan really felt that it was a little late, and it should be arranged before the Spring Festival, and now it seems embarrassing to meet for dinner, at least he didn't put the feelings between friends in the first place, which may hurt them. Li Siyu was so angry that he couldn't say anything. Zhang Dahua also has ideas, but they are not very obvious.
As soon as Li Siyu came back from the back kitchen, Zhang Dahua received a call from Che Hongxuan. The two heard that Leader Chen asked the restaurant to stop cooking immediately, and explained that they went out and drove to the "Friendship Villa".
