Chapter 22 The Old Ones
Chapter 22 Old Friend
January 2000 was probably the most upset month since Zhao Guodong entered politics.
After more than a month of investigation and consideration, Huaxin International finally settled in Andu with the strong promotion of the Central Committee and Anyuan Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government.
Zhao Guodong picked up the wine glass and stood lightly in a corner.
The bastards of the provincial government didn't know whether this was Zhong Wantai or Ren Weifeng's idea. At this time, they actually remembered that the initiator of the Anyuan aspect of this project came from Huaiqing. They actually sent an invitation letter to invite Huaiqing to send representatives to the signing ceremony. There is no doubt that this kind of work with provocation and sarcasm could only fall on Zhao Guodong. Zhao Guodong originally wanted to refuse to participate, but after thinking about it, he still came.
Instead of coming, he seems to be petty. Could it be that this project can really knock me down? So what if Yao Wenzhi succeeds? If it is not for this sub-provincial city and Miao Zhenzhong, it is hard to say who will die.
But then again, this investment of up to $1.4 billion, the first eight-inch wafer production line is a jaw-dropping project wherever it is placed anywhere.
Looking at Miao Zhenzhong and Yao Wenzhi's face full of spring breeze, Zhao Guodong's heart was still a little sour. This step of lag behind may lead to step-by-step lag. Huaiqing has a long way to go if he wants to make a difference in the development of the electronic information industry.
Almost all the provincial bosses attended the signing ceremony. Ning Fa left after attending the signing ceremony, while Ying Dongliu was always present. Miao Zhenzhong, Yao Wenzhi and his former acquaintance Lu Weihong were shuttled through the guests like butterflies, chatting and laughing, especially Yao Wenzhi, whose pride was almost shattered.
"Guodong?!" Qingyue's slightly surprised voice came from behind, which shocked Zhao Guodong. He turned around and a pretty face of Yichen and Yixi appeared in front of him, "Xiao Dong?! Why are you here?"
"Why am I here? I should ask you this sentence. Today is Huaxin International and Andu Municipal Government. What are your deputy mayor of Huaiqing City doing here? Are you angry and planning to mess up?"
Seeing this handsome figure and a familiar expression between his eyebrows, Han Dong felt a little sad. He already had a wife and Luo Fu had no husband yet. Maybe he should really consider his marriage.
Seeing that Han Dong was still developing normally, Zhao Guodong calmed down and smiled and said with a smile: "Xiaodong, don't understand me yet. I am such a person? I'm a little confident in this, although my mind is also a little sour."
"Oh, you invited me from the province? This is too unkind. Isn't this intentional humiliation? If you hit someone or not, your Huaiqing competition has failed. Do you still have to show off in front of you on purpose?" Han Dong was also a little angry. This kind of thing was too much.
"No, Xiaodong, don't think so much. The provincial leaders will have such boring thoughts? You and I are so cute. The province probably considers that we, Huaiqing, were the earliest contacts. Although Andu is now confused, there are also some contributions from our Huaiqing in the early stage. It is a comforting to call us."
Although Zhao Guodong spoke nicely, he could not hide his bitterness on his face. There was no need for him to act without worries in front of Han Dong.
"How can there be such comfort? Guodong, do you think this is comfort?"
Han Dong observed Zhao Guodong's face with concern, and could not see anything strange. She felt a little at ease. She also knew that Zhao Guodong was a proud and arrogant character. She also vaguely learned that the Huaxin International project had always been operated by Zhao Guodong, but at the most critical moment, Andu intervened strongly, and the province did not clearly express which side to support. In the end, Huaxin International chose Andu, and Huaiqing had to leave the market in disgrace.
"Is it a comfort depends on your personal understanding?" Zhao Guodong said lightly, "Xiaodong, are you here on behalf of your Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department?"
Han Dong glared with beautiful eyes, "Are you sarcastic about me? Do I have this qualification? I came with Minister Jiang."
"Hehe, Xiaodong, it seems that you, Minister Jiang, will take you to attend this occasion together. I guess it will be not far from you to go up the next step." Zhao Guodong touched his jaw and smiled.
"Okay, Guodong, don't say these unpleasant words here anymore. Do you want me to ask when you will be promoted to mayor and you will be happy?" Han Dong raised a smile on his lips and fought back.
"No, don't mention these trash things. Besides rumors, they are also rumors."
Zhao Guodong quickly hugged his fists and begged for mercy. Recently, the atmosphere in the city has been somewhat abnormal. Some say that He Zhaocheng might have to go to the provincial party committee to serve as deputy secretary-general, Tan Lifeng wants to compete with him for the position of mayor, some say that Tan Lifeng wants to go to Jianyang to serve as deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, and he competed with Lu Qiuchen for deputy secretary of the municipal party committee. All kinds of rumors were like weeds growing wildly before this year. Even Wang Fumei called him to ask him, which made Zhao Guodong frightened.
"Rumors stop at wise men, what are you afraid of?" Han Dong smiled softly, "Are you worried that this is not a rumor?"
He was unable to withstand Han Dong's sharp lyrics, so Zhao Guodong had no choice but to hold his fists and beg for forgiveness.
Zhao Guodong's originally depressed mood suddenly dissipated a lot because of Han Dong's arrival. No matter what, it is always pleasant to meet friends. Han Dong has been immersed in the Propaganda Department of the An Urban Committee for several years, and his temperament has become more elegant and graceful, and his clothes are fashionable but not ostentatious. Although the cold textured clothing lacks a little affinity, it undoubtedly makes her more mysterious in the minds of outsiders.
"Guodong!"
"Secretary Lu!" Zhao Guodong and Han Dong both smiled and strode with old acquaintances.
"Hey, Xiao Han is here too. Do you know Guodong?" Lu Weihong was in a good mood, but she was in a better mood when she saw Zhao Guodong.
"Secretary Lu, you seem to have forgotten that when I was in the army under your command, Han Dong was also the people under your rule." Zhao Guodong explained with a smile.
After Lu Weihong left Jiangkou, Zhao Guodong and Lu Weihong had little contact, but occasionally they met on some occasions, keeping a distance of not far or near.
Lu Weihong's career has been very smooth in recent years. From the Deputy Minister of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee and the Director of the Personnel Bureau, step by step to the Executive Deputy Minister of the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee, to the Standing Committee of the Andu Municipal Party Committee, and the Secretary and Director of the Party Working Committee of the Management Committee of the Andu High-tech Development Zone, it was smooth sailing.
It should be said that Zhao Guodong's career started during the period when Lu Weihong was in charge of Jiangkou. From the police station to the deputy director of the management committee, this step was quite critical, and it achieved a qualitative leap from ordinary cadres to deputy section-level cadres. Lu Weihong's work style also left a deep impression on Zhao Guodong, and even had a certain impact on Zhao Guodong's growth.
In Zhao Guodong's feeling, the county party secretary should be like Lu Weihong, strong but not tyrannical, decisive but not stubborn. Lu Weihong's performance and style also subconsciously influence Zhao Guodong's growth.
"Is that so? I remember Xiao Han should be from Lanshan." Lu Weihong said with a smile.
"Secretary Lu, you are right. I am from Pingchuan." Han Dong said quietly.
"Secretary Lu, but you forgot that when I was hanging out at the Jiangkou County Public Security Bureau, Han Dong taught at the Children's School of Andu No. 1 Textile Factory. He was a citizen of Jiangkou County." Zhao Guodong interrupted.
"Oh? So Guodong, you and Xiao Han met at that time?" Lu Weihong smiled and said, "You two are destined to be together."
"Haha, Secretary Lu was joking. My family is from Andu No. 1 Textile Factory. At that time, I worked at Jiangmiao Police Station. When I often went back, I met Han Dong." Zhao Guodong said openly.
"Well, Guodong, this time we settled in Huaxin International, An may disappoint you Huaiqing, right?"
Lu Weihong certainly knew the whole process of winning Huaxin International to the Andu High-tech Development Zone this time. The game was turbulent and turbulent. Huaiqing also tried his best to defeat Hujiang. In the end, although Anyuan tried his best to defeat Hujiang, his focus was placed on Andu. Huaiqing's side was useless, which also triggered a strong rebound from Huaiqing.
It is said that their municipal party secretary Chen Yinglu also met Ning and Ying two, and specifically stated Huai Qing's views and opinions, but in the end it was still unable to save the situation.
Lu Weihong also understood Huaiqing's dissatisfaction. After all, Huaiqing was actively in touching and operating from the beginning. The invitation was also in the name of inspecting the investment environment of Huaiqing City, Anyuan Province. However, Huaxin International visited Andu after inspecting Huaiqing, and the province did not make a clear statement about whether Huaxin International was settled in Andu or Huaiqing, only saying that as long as Huaxin International can settle in Anyuan Province, it also made the competition between Huaqing and Andu suddenly become clear.
Of course, in Lu Weihong's view, Huaiqing has lost the clear support from the province, and Huaiqing cannot compare with Huaiqing in all aspects, especially the regional positioning of Andu and the special identity of the municipal party secretary Miao Zhenzhong. These two points alone are enough to make investors think twice before they can. Several investors such as Huadeng International, Goldman Sachs, and Handing Asia Pacific visited Andu after entering Anyuan, and were warmly welcomed by Andu, which also paved the way for Huaxin International to officially settle in Andu.
Although this competition is not completely fair, it is a manifestation of reality, and absolute fairness never exists. If you are indignant about it, it can only be said that you are not mature yet. Lu Weihong also hopes that Zhao Guodong can accept reality rationally and calmly.
