Chapter 273 [Breaking the Track]

Because there were many people on the scene outdoors, Xiao Ming specially asked someone to prepare a microphone. Song Huaiming stood in front of the microphone and smiled and said, "Hello everyone, today is my first time to come to Jiangcheng Development Zone. To be honest, Jiangcheng Development Zone is better than I expected. I have seen the planning of the development zone and also seen the current construction progress of the development zone. It is very good. The stage you want to build is very big, but if the stage is set up, if you want to gain popularity, you must have good actors. Huitong and Lanxing, well-known domestic and foreign companies have already taken a fancy to this land. I believe that as they settle in Jiangcheng, more and more eyes will be turned to here. In no time, the development zone will become bright and become a real economic pearl in Pinghai!"

There was a lot of warm applause at the scene.

After the applause of Song Huaiming and others subsided, they continued: "Our country is in an era of deepening reform. Every leading cadre of our country bears heavy historical responsibilities. Being an official is not to glorify the family, nor to show off his power. Being an official is to seek welfare for the people, and being an official is to devote oneself to our country! I believe that every comrade present has…”

The power suddenly broke off at the scene, and Song Huaiming's voice suddenly became smaller, and he had to stop talking.

Du Tianye and Zuo Yuanchao both looked good, but there was a power outage at this time! They turned their eyes to Xiao Ming, and there was displeasure.

Xiao Ming instantly broke out in cold sweat on his forehead. He pretended to smile and said, "It may be a line problem, I'll check it right away!"

He left the platform, and the staff below had already come up and whispered: "The power bureau has opened the switch again!"

Xiao Ming was so angry that these guys from the Power Bureau were too rampant. Today, the governor inspected the development zone. They dared to do this, which made Jiangcheng's leaders so embarrassed. They couldn't swallow this tone no matter what. Xiao Ming picked up his mobile phone and called Xian Dongshan, the director of the Power Bureau. Unexpectedly, no one responded to the other party's cell phone.

Zhang Yang also walked over from the side: "What's going on? Is the switch locked again?"

Xiao Ming gritted his teeth and said, "What are these bastards in the Power Bureau doing?" When he said this, he called again.

The microphone let out a sharp noise, and the staff hurriedly stepped forward to adjust. Governor Song always maintained a humble smile on his face. He said calmly: "It seems that I and this microphone also need to be well adjusted!"

Everyone laughed.

Song Huaiming continued his speech just now: "I believe that every comrade present has this sense of responsibility in his heart. I believe that you will definitely contribute your greatest strength to the construction of Jiangcheng and the economy of Jiangcheng. Don't worry, our province will do its best to help you and support you, you..." The electricity was cut off again.

Song Huaiming had some ominous premonition just now, so he compressed his speech as much as possible and prepared to end it in a few sentences, but his speech speed did not keep up with the speed of pulling the switch.

The scene was silent, and everyone could see that Governor Song was unhappy.

Song Huaiming left the viewing platform.

Du Tianye whispered as he passed by Xiao Ming, "What are you doing?"

Acting mayor Zuo Ai Chao then said: "That's how are you prepared?"

Xiao Ming was really crying and tears. Is this power bureau hindering me? The problem of power outage in the development zone has been around for a while, and he has also communicated with the power bureau, but from the momentum, the effect is not obvious.

Before Song Huaiming got into the car, he turned around and searched the crowd and found Zhang Yang in the crowd. Zhang Yang understood something from his eyes, walked over, came to Song Huaiming and whispered to Governor Song.

Song Huaiming said: "If the power problem is not solved, the development zone will soon become angry and resentful. Who is willing to invest here?" After saying that, he got into the car. These words were not deliberately said to Zhang Yang, but to everyone present.

Du Tianye was also full of anger by what happened today. He said to Xiao Ming and Zhang Yang: "I will leave this matter to you two to be responsible. If something like this happens again, you can go to my office to hand in resignation!"

Both Xiao Ming and Zhang Yang knew that Du Tianye was talking angry, but they still felt very uncomfortable. When the leaders left, Zhang Yang sighed and said, "Do you do nothing, Director Xiao, why do I remember standing with you?"

Xiao Ming said: "I should be unlucky by myself after all? Brother Zhang, you shouldn't be such a loyal person, right?"

Zhang Yang smiled. He didn't regard the power outage today as a bad thing. Song Huaiming should have been impressed this time. After returning to Dongjiang, he would have to find bad luck from the Provincial Power Bureau. Maybe this incident is a blessing and can completely solve the power consumption problem in the development zone.

Xiao Ming was so angry that he cursed angrily: "That bastard Xian Dongshan, I have invited him to many meals, but I still forgot about how many times I have given him aside!"

Zhang Yang said: "Let him find him!"

Xiao Ming, after Zhang Yang instigated, nodded and said, "Let's go! Let's go find him now, I'll make sense to him!"

Zhang Yang didn't want to go, but Xiao Ming delayed him today, grabbed his arm and pulled him into the car.

Xian Dongshan, director of Jiangcheng Electric Power Bureau, is not in his workplace. His mother is sick and is now taking care of Jiangcheng Second Hospital.

Xiao Ming breathed a sigh of relief. Today he didn't find Xian Dongshan and asked him clearly, so he would not give up. He dragged Zhang Yang and bought some nutritional supplements to visit Xian Dongshan's mother. He thought to himself that I have been so kind today. If Xian Dongshan is shameless, I will drive your power bureau out of the development zone.

Xian Dongshan did not expect Xiao Ming and Zhang Yang to come. He and Xiao Ming were old acquaintances, but they had no contact with Zhang Yang in the past. After Xiao Ming introduced Zhang Yang to him, Xian Dongshan was still very polite and shook hands with Zhang Yang and said, "I have heard of Director Zhang's name for a long time. I only saw him today. It's a great honor."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "What have Director Xian heard of me? I am notorious outside. Everyone says that I bully men and women, and fight and do evil things!"

Xian Dongshan heard the meaning of the threat in his words, and felt a little unhappy, and said to himself, why are you a state cadre? I don’t believe you dare to attack me!

Xiao Ming put the nutritional supplements on the ground, and he complained: "Old Xian, you have made me suffer today. Governor Song came to the development zone for inspection. In less than three minutes, your power bureau pulled the gate twice. You really know how to pick the time!"

Xian Dongshan signaled them to whisper and pointed to the balcony outside. He was a filial son, afraid that the two of them would wake up their mother.

The three of them came to the balcony. Xian Dongshan took out a box of cigarettes and gave Xiao Ming one. Zhang Yang did not smoke and refused to give up the cigarettes he handed over.

Xian Dongshan lit a cigarette and took a sip and said, "Old Xiao, Jiangcheng's power resources are in short supply. As the director of the Power Bureau, I must ensure that the electricity consumption of the entire Jiangcheng is focused on large state-owned enterprises!"

Xiao Ming said: "What do you mean? Our development zone doesn't matter. You shut down the power outage every few days. The construction of the development zone is now developing in a high degree. If you continue to do this, who is willing to invest in our development zone?"

Xian Dongshan said: "I said at the beginning that if there are so many companies in the development zone, the power supply will increase exponentially. The province has proposed to you to build a power plant more than once, but you are just fine. You are simply taking our power system suggestions as an indifferent ear. Now if there is a problem, you are coming to us again?"

Xiao Ming was also annoyed: "There are three large power plants in Jiangcheng. Open your eyes and see. Who produces more electricity in the entire Pinghai Province than our Jiangcheng?"

Xian Dongshan said: "If you have a view of the overall situation, it is not necessary that the power plant is built in Jiangcheng, so you have to supply it closely first!"

Zhang Yang, who was parked by the side, couldn't help it. He sneered: "What Director Xian means is that we, the salt sellers, deserve to drink light soup?"

Xian Dongshan said: "The power problem is unified by the province, and I can't make the decision."

Xiao Ming said angrily: "The province has unified the allocation, but you are the ones who pull the switch. You are irresponsible if you say that!"

Xian Dongshan said: "Old Xiao, if you have any dissatisfaction in your heart, you can reflect it to the top!"

Xiao Ming said: "Old Xian, Lao Xian, you are not from Jiangcheng? Don't you want our Jiangcheng economic construction to be carried out as soon as possible?"

"In fact, a power plant should be built in the development zone. Wouldn't the problem be solved after it is connected to the grid?"

Zhang Yang said: "Building a power plant is a matter of one day or two? Jiangcheng's finances are so tight, so where can I still have money to build a power plant? Do you think all units are as rich as your power system?"

Xian Dongshan frowned and said, "What does Director Zhang mean?"

Zhang Yang said: "It's not interesting. I just think you are not authentic in doing things. There are three power plants in Jiangcheng, but Jiangcheng itself is often troubled by electricity use. Your power bureau is nothing more than a management unit. Who gives you the power? I think you can do whatever you want if you have the power to use electricity? The power system is a special unit, but don't forget whose territory you are on."

Xian Dongshan smiled and said, "Director Zhang speaks very strongly. Don't be so angry when young people are angry!"

Xiao Ming said in fear that the world will remain unchaos: "Director Zhang has a much better temper now. If it were the case, he would have beaten people long ago!"

Xian Dongshan was about to retort a few words when he suddenly heard the cough inside, so he hurriedly pushed the door and walked in, holding his mother up and spitting.

Zhang Yang and Xiao Ming also followed in. The old lady took a few breaths and looked at Xiao Ming and Zhang Yang's faces. When she saw Zhang Yang, her expression suddenly became excited. She struggled to get out of bed.

Xian Dongshan hurriedly supported his mother and said, "Mom, what are you doing? Lying down and rest!"

Xiao Ming also said: "Auntie, don't be polite. We are here to see you and we're leaving now!"

The old lady held Xian Dongshan's hand: "Dongshan, he...he..." pointed at Zhang Yang, because she was excited, she couldn't speak for a moment.

Zhang Yang was also puzzled, what was going on with this old lady? He seemed to have never offended her in his impression! Xian Dongshan and Xiao Ming were both confused.

The old lady took a while to control her emotions: "Dongshan, it was this young man who saved me!"

When Zhang Yang heard her say this, he suddenly remembered that he encountered freezing rain on his way back to Jiangcheng a few days ago, and a series of rear-end collisions occurred. At that time, he rescued an old lady from a bus. He was the one in front of him. He never expected that the old lady was Xian Dongshan's mother.

Zhang Yang walked over, the old lady held his hand and shook excitedly: "Thank you, I've been looking for you all the time, thank you!"

Xian Dongshan was very grateful to know that Zhang Yang was his mother's savior.

The old lady took her son's hand and said, "Dongshan, you must thank her well!"

Zhang Yang said unkindly: "Don't be polite, just pull the gate less in the future!"

Xiao Ming sneered! He laughed out loud, and Xian Dongshan smiled awkwardly.

At noon that day, Xian Dongshan invited them to dinner at Zhenweiju, opposite the hospital. Because Zhang Yang was his mother's savior, Xian Dongshan's attitude towards him naturally changed. He first gave Zhang Yang two glasses of wine. He sighed: "I know that the development zone has a lot of opinions on our power bureau, but the pressure from the superiors is quite high. They want to build another power plant in Jiangcheng, and I have been holding on to this matter."

Xiao Ming and Zhang Yang were both skeptical about his words. Zhang Yang liked the actual situation, and he mentioned the future electricity use issue in the development zone.

Xian Dongshan immediately stated: "I promise that there will be no similar phenomenon in the future. Even if the power is shut down, I will definitely notify the development zone in advance. Do you think this is OK?"

Xiao Ming smiled and couldn't imagine that the problem that had troubled him for many days was solved so simply. It seems that human favors are more effective. Zhang Yang is the savior of Xian Dongshan's mother. Xian Dongshan is another filial son. This kind of favor is not light. Xiao Ming believes that the Power Bureau will never be so fucked with the development zone in the future. He picked up the wine glass and said, "Old Xian, the glory of the development zone is the glory of Jiangcheng, and the glory of Jiangcheng is the glory of each of us. Our construction must rely on your spare time to support it."

Xian Dongshan said: "Although I know you don't like to listen, I still have to mention that although there are three power plants in Jiangcheng, the factory equipment is old and the power generation can no longer meet the requirements of the rapid development era. We need to build a new power plant."

Xiao Ming said: "The city also wants to build a new power plant, but what about the money? Your power bureau only wants the city to pay for the power plant and then connect to the grid. This is a business that makes money for nothing. Who is not happy? But our Jiangcheng's finances are so tight, and we invest money on the power plant. What should we do for other construction?"

Xian Dongshan said: "Anyway, the problem of electricity will be resolved sooner or later, otherwise the contradiction will still arise."

They understood everything at noon, and Xiao Ming had gained a lot.

After breaking up with Xian Dongshan, Xiao Ming immediately reported the result to Acting Mayor Zuo Ai Korea. Zuo Ai Korea was happy to hear that the power consumption problem in the development zone could be solved smoothly. The two power outages in the development zone in the morning did not affect Governor Song's impression of Jiangcheng. He had a good overall feeling about Jiangcheng. Before leaving, he did not forget to give the leaders of Jiangcheng some encouragement.

Shortly after Zuo Ai Korea returned to the government office, Cao Zhengyang, the director and secretary of Jiangcheng Engineering Machinery Factory, came to visit, and Cao Zhengyang came to complain.

Zuo Yuanchao and Cao Zhengyang have always had a good relationship. He invited Cao Zhengyang to sit down very friendly. After Cao Zhengyang sat down, he immediately felt bitter: "Mayor Zuo, I can't continue to do the construction machinery factory anymore. You should choose another wise man."

Zuo Yuanchao smiled and said, "Old Cao, what are you doing? Who offended you? You actually want to give up?"

Cao Zhengyang said: "Who else? Let's go to the investment office!" He knew that Zuo Yuanchao and Zhang Yang had a good relationship, so he didn't directly call Zhang Yang's name.

Zuo Yuanchao said, "Tell me, tell me any unhappiness in my heart!"

Cao Zhengyang said: "Our factory and South Korea An Dai Group have been negotiating intermittently for more than a year for this cooperation. Now all the conditions have been fully negotiated. The Investment and Merchants Office has mentioned the matter of Hyde Group again."

Zuo Yuanchao said: "According to me, Zhihaide Group is much stronger than Korea's Andai Group in both strength and influence."

Cao Zhengyang said: "I still say the same thing. We like others, but they also have to like us. Even if Hyde Group can cooperate with us, it will take a long time from the inspection to the final signing of the contract. When the agreement is signed, I think our construction machinery factory has been delayed almost."

Zuo Yuanchao said: "Old Cao, Hyde Group will come to Jiangcheng for inspection during the Spring Festival!"

Cao Zhengyang said: "I am not against their investigation, but Liu Minzhi, president of Andae Group, is coming next week. They want to sign a contract with us this time, so I don't know how to shirk it!"

Zuo Ai said: "Cooperation is a manifestation of the balance of interests between the two sides. No party can only take care of its own interests. I heard that Anidi's conditions are a bit harsh and unfair to us."

Cao Zhengyang said: "I have been in the construction machinery factory for so many years. I am very clear about the situation of the factory. I should have a more say than others."
