On the construction site of the department store next to Shennan Road in Shenzhen, Zhou Xin wore a hard hat and looked at the department store under construction in front of him, and Liu Gong, the project leader of the station next to him, kept explaining the construction progress of the project to Zhou Xin, and guaranteed that it could be completed before the end of the year.

After inspecting the completion site, Zhou Xin invited Liu Gong to participate in the reception banquet prepared by Artesian Water, and when he arrived at the restaurant, Zhou Xin found that Zhou Bingyi was also there, and after Zhou Xin said hello, he said:

"Brother, let's talk after dinner, I want to talk to you about something."

Zhou Bingyi nodded, he also had something to find out about Zhou Xin at this time, he had been in Shencheng for more than a month, in addition to learning business management, he also learned about Zhou Xin's arrangements from Artesian Water, the more he wanted to talk to Zhou Xin about his views on economic reform.

At the dinner table, Zhou Xin first toasted Liu Gong with a glass of wine, and then said:

"Liu Gong, I am going to build a department store in Jichun, the current plan is three-storey, can you help me recommend a person in charge?"

Liu Gong, who was a little flattered, hurriedly stood up and said respectfully:

"Dong Zhou, don't worry, I'll help you find it when I go back tonight, but it's ......"

After watching Liu Gong's words halfway through, Zhou Xin knew that it should be a matter of treatment or something, so he said:

"Then it's troublesome for Liu Gong, I will interview in person when the time comes, and I will never treat him badly in terms of treatment."

After Liu Gong heard Zhou Xin's assurance, he was relieved, he didn't believe that such a rich boss would make a blind promise, and then after sitting down, he began to think about people who had a good relationship with him.

After being full of wine and food, Zhou Xin took Zhou Bingyi to the hotel where Zhou Xin stayed under the farewell of Artesian Water and Liu Gong.

"Brother, Dad has retired and come back, do you remember what I said last year? It is for you to admit that you didn't have children before because of your sister-in-law. ”

Zhou Bingyi lowered his head and pursed his mouth, and after a while, he raised his head and said:

"Bingkun, I'll explain it to my dad when I go back, in fact, your sister-in-law has been holding this matter in her heart for a few years, and she always feels that she has deceived her father, and I have already discussed it with her."

After Zhou Bingyi finished speaking, he looked at Zhou Xin and nodded without speaking, so he continued to ask:

"Bingkun, I've been here for more than a month, and I learned from the artesian mouth that you said you got the news from Dongmei's father, but I don't believe this at all, how did you know about the affairs of the Special Economic Zone?"

After hearing Zhou Bingyi's words, Zhou Xin was dumbfounded, after so long, he had long forgotten to scare Shui Artesian and pull the tiger skin, but he didn't expect Shui Artesian to tell Zhou Bingyi about this.

But it's right to think about it, Shui Artesian must have thought that his news came from Zhou Bingyi, so he didn't hide Zhou Bingyi. Zhou Xin thought for a while, then pretended to show an embarrassed smile, and then said:

"Brother, I was busy going to school at the time, and Yanjing was too far away from here, I was afraid that the artesian three would get out of my control, so I could only deter them in the name of Dongmei's father, you should also understand, I can't have anything to do with Dongmei's father.

As for the matter of the special zone, this is actually my guess, after all, economic reform was the most important policy at that time, and Shencheng not only has a seaport, convenient transportation, and more importantly, the neighbor is Xiangjiang, so it is normal to be an economic pilot zone. ”

Although Zhou Xin's explanation is not so reasonable, Zhou Bingyi believes it, after all, he understands Hao's father's personality, and it is impossible to reveal such important news to others, and more importantly, this kind of national policy, whether Hao's father can know in advance is a problem?

Zhou Bingyi didn't continue to dwell on the source of the news, if it was really Zhou Xin who guessed it, then he was very sensitive to economic reform, so the conversation between the two would be more valuable, so he asked:

"Bingkun, in fact, today I mainly want to hear what suggestions you have for our economic reform in Jichun."

Looking at Zhou Bingyi, who was curious, Zhou Xin selectively said some auspicious futures, such as automobiles as the leading industry, looked at Zhou Bingyi with a thoughtful face, and finally said:

"Brother, the most important thing now is to take advantage of the current reform opportunity and act quickly to carry out reforms, otherwise wait for the initial reform dividend to disappear, then if Jichun reforms again, you will have to face competitors one by one."

Zhou Bingyi didn't know that Jichun's development was urgent, but the things in the middle were complicated, and he couldn't explain it to Zhou Xin, so he just nodded his head to express his understanding.

The two chatted until late at night, and Zhou Bingyi did not leave and opened another room in the hotel to rest.

In the afternoon of the next day, Zhou Xin interviewed several persons in charge recommended by Liu Gong, and finally chose a young man named Fang Shuo to prepare for the opening of a branch in Jichun, and Zhou Xin returned to Jichun.

In half a month, Fang Shuo rushed to Jichun with some people from Shencheng, and opened a branch in Jichun, and then began to choose the location of the department store and communicate with relevant departments.

……

On the other hand, Zhou Bingyi also ended his research and study, and after returning to Jichun, he submitted his personal research experience in Shencheng and Zhou Xin's development plan about Jichun into a report, and submitted it after Jin Yueji's review.

On the weekend, Zhou Bingyi returned to Zhou's house without taking Hao Dongmei and the child, Zhou Zhigang looked at his eldest son with a worried face, and asked:

"Bingyi, I know you're busy with work, if you have something, you don't have to come over."

Zhou Xin looked at Zhou Bingyi and didn't open his mouth for a long time, although he didn't know what he was thinking, so he interjected directly:

"Dad, my brother is looking for you to talk about something, you can go to the study to talk."

After the two entered the study, Zhou Zhigang looked at his son and didn't speak for a long time, so he said directly:

"Bingyi, what are you looking for me? What else can't be talked about between our father and son? ”

After hearing Zhou Zhigang's words, Zhou Bingyi took a deep breath, and then said:

"Dad, I'm sorry, what I told you before was that I didn't have children with Dongmei because of me, but in fact, I lied to you, it was Dongmei who accidentally fell into a well in the winter and caused infertility. At that time, in order not to irritate Dongmei, I said it was because of me. ”

After hearing his eldest son's words, Zhou's face turned gloomy, and he couldn't help but roll a cigarette for himself, and he didn't care if he smoked it in the study, and the study fell silent for a while.

After smoking a cigarette, Father Zhou stared at Zhou Bingyi with stunned eyes, and said in a low and sad tone:

"Bingyi, I can understand what you do, are you afraid that I and your mother will object to you two being together, and you are afraid that Dongmei will not be able to raise her head in front of us. But ......"

Immediately after that, Father Zhou's voice instantly raised, and he said with a roar:

"Is that how you see your parents? Are we the kind of people who don't know what to do, and look down on Dongmei because she can't have children? ”

"The Great Age of Genes"

Zhou Bingyi only understood Zhou Zhigang's thoughts now, so he immediately explained:

"Dad, I didn't mean that, I was just thinking about comforting Dongmei, I'm afraid what if she thinks nonsense? I didn't think about your feelings, I'm sorry, it's my fault. ”

"You're right, it's your parents who are wrong, we are a pair of failed parents, and even our children don't want to believe us."

Zhou's father, who was angry, was not forgiving, and Zhou Bingyi also saw it, so he could only stand there obediently and keep saying:

"I'm sorry."
