432 Veblen effect
The next day, the Jiangdu Municipal Government and the garrison area came forward to arrange a banquet at the Yuelai Hotel on the grounds of receiving the old chief from Jincheng, which was actually to help Ye Tianmin solve the problem of being unprepared.
Although Zhen Zhigang said yesterday that it was a "family banquet", this "family banquet" will not really be only family.
Of course, there will not be many people who can attend, the main leaders of the municipal government, the main leaders of the state control, the director of Jiangdu TV station, the senior military officers of the Jiangdu Garrison District, the president of Jiangdu University, as well as retired veteran cadres including Chen Shichang, and several leaders of Tianmin Group in Jiangdu, Wang Feiyu, Li Qinggang, Zhang Zhen, Luo Yangyu, and the parents of the Ye family who took over from the Fengyulan Valley.
Gao Wenfeng, who flew over from Nanyun City early in the morning, also happened to be at the meeting and arrived before the banquet.
Participating in the banquet was the director and deputy director of the Agriculture and Rural Bureau Kang Lecheng, when I saw that Ye Tianjun, the vice president of the Agricultural Development Association of their bureau, was also present, especially seeing Chen Shichang enjoying Ye Tianjun's support and care as a matter of course, his jaw almost dropped, fortunately, everyone got along in the past few months, Ye Tianjun himself is not domineering, and he is also very polite, so no one deliberately feels sorry for him, after all, the start-up cost of the association is also brought by others.
Ye Tianjun didn't deliberately avoid it, but it was impossible for Ye Tianmin's name to be unknown at this banquet, and if he still needed to think hard, there would be a problem with his brain.
Zhen Zhigang, the protagonist of today's banquet, treated his own son as air, and called Ye Tianmin to his side throughout the whole process, everyone heard the old man's words clearly, thanks to the arrangement of the Jiangdu Municipal Government, saying that it was to pick me up, but in fact it was the 30th birthday of my grandson-in-law, and this old man wrote it down.
If the meaning of the words is not clear enough, the old man drank the first glass of wine, and the second glass of wine was directly drunk with Ye Tianmin alone. If it is not clear, the subsequent conversation between the old man and several retired old cadres, Ye Tianmin has also been following. Han Xueer seemed to be deliberately hiding her identity, and did not accompany her all the time, but chose to sit with Yang Momo.
Today's occasion obviously does not need Yang Momo to be by Ye Tianmin's side, the people at the table are all from the Tianmin Group, and Ye Tianmin's parents Ye Yonggang and Zhang Yalan, who have never dared to believe all this. And Yang Momo and Han Xueer are like two daughters-in-law, one left and one right by their side.
Yang Momo's care and care, Ye Yonggang and Zhang Yalan were used to it, and suddenly another Han Xueer came out, and she was still a little nervous before she figured out her identity, after all, none of these people who came today were people who they could never have dreamed of eating together.
The only time he got up was accompanied by Yang Momo and Han Xue'er, and went to toast Old Man Zhen, after all, this was his future father-in-law's father and their elder. Although he was very nervous, fortunately, the old man was also very easy-going. Sweating back to his seat, he no longer had the courage to stand up and go to Zhen Tianli to pay respects. On the contrary, Zhen Tianli took the initiative to come over, Han Xueer hurriedly gave up her seat, Zhen Tianli saw the nervousness of the two, and also understood that it was the first time they had seen such a scene, and it was false to say that they were not nervous. came to see the ceremony because this was Ye Nan's grandparents after all, and he felt that his family was sorry for Ye Tianmin and the Ye family, so his attitude was also very polite.
Ye Tianmin drank face-to-face with Chen Shichang for the first time at today's banquet, and Chen Shichang looked at him and finally didn't react as violently as the first time, maybe because of Ye Tianjun's relationship.
Of course, this kind of step Ye Tianmin is enough, first apologize to Chen Shichang, as for why it is an apology, not a hello, Zhen Zhigang is too lazy to ask, it is inevitable that it is all a small matter, if it is a big event, Ye Tianmin will not come up and be blackfaced, after all, Chen Shichang has been a cadre who has been retired for many years, although he is much younger than him, and he has to call Zhen Lao when he sees him, but he will not raise his own shelf if the junior can solve it.
The feast began for a while, and after all the scenes that should have appeared, it actually ended quickly, saying that it was a banquet, but it was just a formality. Of course, the director of Jiangdu Satellite TV's TV station knew what he was doing when he attended this banquet, and he seized the time to apologize to Ye Tianmin, saying that he must rest assured that he would not let go of this big thunder. Sun Fan couldn't find a chance to explain the matter of the villa to Ye Tianmin, one was that a few words were not clear, and it was impossible to say it on this occasion, so he had to wronged himself to find Yang Momo, tell Yang Momo the meaning, and let her tell Ye Tianmin when there was no one.
He didn't want to leave any handles, and he didn't dare to leave any verifiable evidence, and Ye Tianmin believed it or not, a gentleman's friend, it depends on his fate!
Today, Hutou Park is closed to the public, and the iron fence between the park and the villa, which was supposed to be built at night, has been completed by today.
Therefore, after talking to Ye Tianmin last night, Huang Busheng did not really ask Ye Tianmin to go to the city government today to sign the relevant procedures, but the finishing project that should be completed as soon as possible must be done at any cost. There must be a precaution in everything, in case Ye Tianmin has to sign today, Old Man Zhen followed to see the villa, but it was not finished yet, the feeling of hastily holding a meeting and quickly deciding to change the rules because of the pressure of Zhen Zhi's arrival, needless to say, it would be very embarrassing for the old man to see it.
As long as there are no accidents in the recording of TV programs, it doesn't matter when the Jiangdu city government signs it.
In the past few days, Ye Tianmin estimates that he may not have so much time, after all, the purpose of Zhen Zhigang's coming to Jiangdu has been clear at the luncheon, and Ye Tianmin has no reason not to accompany Zhen Zhigang.
After the luncheon, Old Man Zhen was unforgiving after all, and was sent back to the sanatorium to rest, Ye Tianmin did not rush to let his parents go back to Fengyulan Valley, but followed Ye Tianjun to return to Sunshine Garden temporarily.
Before going to bed, the old man didn't forget to ask Ye Tianmin what was going on in the villa, he was too tired yesterday to ask, and some people who shouldn't have appeared in this scene today have appeared, who is the old man, how could he not be aware.
Ye Tianmin and the others went out, and only then did he tell the old man what happened yesterday. After listening to what Ye Tianmin said, the old man smiled and said, "It seems that the Jiangdu Municipal Government is really a little worried about you picking on your son." ”
"Grandpa, that's to give you face. However, this face has to be accepted, otherwise you really want to live in the Fengyulan Valley, I am very worried, even if the medical staff are there 24 hours a day, after all, the conditions are still limited. You can go and see if you have time, but it's still not suitable for you to live. Ye Tianmin said a reason for being willing to take it, and it was indeed true.
"Well, if you can live one more day, you will be a lot less stressed." When Zhen Zhigang said this, he still looked a little sad.
Ye Tianmin is really grateful, he is just a quasi-grandson-in-law, but the old man's maintenance is even more attentive than his own grandson. If he can't stand firm as soon as possible, if the old man has any accidents, there will definitely be many obstacles.
When the old man really closed his eyes and rested, Ye Tianmin was free time at this time, and there were no outsiders present. Yang Momo told Ye Tianmin what Sun Fan told her. Ye Tianmin really didn't expect such a sky-high transfer fee, but since Sun Fan handed over the words from last night, and whether it was Jiangyuan Industrial Machinery Company or the future burden reduction plan, it was inevitable that there would be contacts, Ye Tianmin was really not afraid of this gentleman's friend.
However, what he didn't expect was that because he agreed to this sky-high transaction, the housing prices in the entire Jiangdu City rose because of the transaction of this mansion, especially the real estate under the Hutou Cliff and across the river.
Of course, happy is happy, including those people in Jincheng, their real estate is still in the flat stage, and they haven't done anything yet, and the housing prices in Jiangdu City have begun to rise, which is equivalent to an increase in net profit in vain, and it is strange to be unhappy.
After the transfer of the villa from Hutou Park at a sky-high price, although the rising housing prices have raised the GDP of Jiangdu, it has also increased the burden on rigid demanders.
And such a Veblen effect has led to the rise of housing prices in Jiangdu, and it can be said that Ye Tianmin and the Jiangdu municipal government are largely responsible.
But at this stage, they didn't expect it, so when they made high-profile publicity in the later stage, it was just to let the citizens know that it was not free of charge, but a sky-high transfer to a contributing company, so as to avoid being misunderstood by uninformed citizens about what kind of transaction they were engaged in.
There are two sides to everything, and inevitably opposite directions. Just like Tianmin Group, there has been a lot of news in the past few months, and the transfer of this mansion has pushed Tianmin Group to the forefront. If Zhen Zhigang hadn't pressed Jiangdu, the troubles that could be expected would have come one after another.
The publicity of the Jiangdu Municipal Government and the transfer of the villa in Hutou Park really caused a lot of objections, but fortunately, Huang Busheng and the city leaders did not need to come forward, and the relevant management departments naturally had people to respond to inquiries from all walks of life in Jiangdu.
To the outside world, it must be a propaganda enterprise, putting in front of the Tianmin Group in recent years, especially the things that have been done before the beginning of the spring to the present, and it is naturally very clear that there are objections, even if there is any exchange here, but whether it is the bid of the Tianmin Group or the contribution to Jiangdu, there is no excuse and reason that can be refuted for this transfer.
The talents of the Agriculture and Rural Bureau slowly know how capable the brother of the vice president of the Agricultural Development Joint Association is, compared to the Tianmin Group in the center of the storm, Ye Tianjun is completely different in the Agriculture and Rural Bureau.
The low-key and unassuming personality is quite recognized by everyone. Moreover, after the association has drafted relevant documents such as articles of association and work content, dozens of agriculture-related enterprises have joined the association, and these are relatively well-known enterprises in the agricultural industry or industry in Jiangdu City.
Note: The Veblen effect refers to the degree to which consumer demand for a good increases because its price is higher rather than lower. It reflects people's psychological desire to engage in profligate consumption. The higher the price of the product, the more it will be favored by consumers. The higher the price of goods, the more willing consumers are to buy, which was first noticed by the American economist Veblen, so it is named the "Veblen effect".
