Chapter 446 [Official villain] (Part 2)

Li Changyu's trip to Dongjiang did not play any role. Most provincial members believe that the significance of Nancy Deepwater Port in future reform is much more important than that of Jiangcheng New Airport. Judging from what Li Changyu learned this time, Jiangcheng has basically failed in the competition with Nancy.

After listening to Li Changyu's report on the situation, the Standing Committee members all looked a little solemn. Although they were both key projects in Pinghai for five years, they did not receive the recognition of their leaders, which means that the province's financial support in the future is very limited.

Xu Biao said angrily: "What are you doing? The province is shouting all day long to shorten the economic gap between the north and the south, and focus on developing the northern economy. Is it just yelling slogans? The economic development of the southern region is already ahead, and now the provincial finances should focus on supporting them. Will the economic gap between the north and the south be wider and wider in the future?"

Mayor Zuo Yuanchao said: "In fact, the province does not support our Jiangcheng's new airport project. They think that our Jiangcheng must first build a development zone project. Now we want to take advantage of everything and develop everything. Instead, there is no focus or theme. We think that we are a hammer and a hammer in the east. This way, we have too many economic clues and too big stalls, so we naturally need a lot of funds. Of course, it is inevitable that there will be financial shortages." Zuo Yuanchao's words mean something, and he is targeting Du Tianye.

Most of the Standing Committee members knew that the first person to propose the construction of a new airport was Zuo Aid Korea. Now he actually said such words and publicly questioned Du Tianye's economic policies. It was indeed a bit unkind enough, but political struggles are like this. The truth is often in his own hands. Even if he did it wrong, the mistakes were always on the other side, even if the other party did it right.

The conflict between Zuo Ai Korea and Du Tianye has become increasingly open and clear, which is not a good thing for the developing Jiangcheng. Li Changyu said: "There is no mistake in building a new airport. Jiangcheng's airport is too close to the city, and the rise and fall of planes seriously disturb the people. With the continuous development of the city, this deficiency will become more and more obvious. If we want to build a modern new city, transportation reform is a necessary step for us. If I remember correctly, the person who first proposed the concept of a new airport is Mayor Zuo!"

Zuo Yuanchao smiled and said, "Comrade Changyu is right. I was indeed the one who first proposed the concept of a new airport, but what I proposed was a long-term development plan. I think everyone here knows that development requires a process and nothing can be accomplished overnight. Reform and opening up requires us to move forward. Not daring to take steps is to shrink forward. But taking too big means to move forward blindly. As state cadres, we must have some control. Leaders need control, economy needs control, and everything needs control. Without control, everything will become chaotic and disorderly."

Du Tianye said: "The comrades who aid Korea are indeed a rational, calm and well-versed in the control of the law. But in the tide of reform and opening up today, in the ever-changing economic development, it is not easy to control everything accurately? There is no way back to reform. When this train is moving at full speed, what we can do is to grasp the right direction, not control the speed of its progress. Economic development zones need to be carried out, the railway station needs to be renovated, and the construction projects of the new airport cannot be left behind. I am saying that I will go hand in hand.

OK, it’s better to say that I will bloom more. What I want is to speed up the reform process of Jiangcheng and continuously deepen the reform. Concentrating all the strength to strike at one point can certainly have a good effect, but in the face of this era of comprehensive development, if you still want to stick to one leg, it can only cause unbalanced development. Examples of Pinghai’s past development are in front of us. The imbalance of the economy in the north and south is caused by the so-called key points. With the lessons of the past, will we still make the same mistake?"

Zuo Yuanchao said: "Everyone wants to develop in a comprehensive and balanced manner, but to do this, it must be based on strong financial resources. The financial situation of our Jiangcheng does not support this development." He has publicly sang an opposition to Du Tianye.

Du Tianye said: "There is no turning back when we have opened the bow. What we have confirmed will not change. Whether the province's financial focus supports us or not, relying on Jiangcheng's own strength, we will definitely be able to build the new airport project."

Cha Jinbei came to Jiangcheng in person. This time he came not for his diamond business, but for the investment plan of Jiangcheng New Airport. After he arrived in Jiangcheng, he immediately met with the leaders of the Jiangcheng Municipal Party Committee and asked Qiu Fengxian to invite Zhang Yang to have a meal at the New Emperor that night.

Even after checking Jinbei, he saw that Zhang Yang's face was not very good, and he said with concern: "Zhang Yang, are you feeling uncomfortable? Why are your face so ugly?"

Zhang Yang said: "It's not that the matter of the new airport has been chaotic. The leader has put all the matter of the new airport on me. I have no three heads and six arms alone. I have to attract investment, prepare for construction, and prepare for bidding conferences. If this continues, I'm afraid I'll be aging before I get old."

Cha Jinbei and Qiu Fengxian both laughed, and Qiu Fengxian said, "Mayor Zhang is young and promising. The leader gives you such an important responsibility, which is enough to prove that you value your ability."

Zhang Yang said: "You don't understand. Although we are all Chinese, there are very different places in mainland Taiwan. You are serving yourself and we are serving the people."

Qiu Fengxian spat and said, "Mayor Zhang looks down on us Taiwanese! Although we are privately owned, we have not forgotten to do public welfare and charity while making money. We are not as loud as your slogans, but many of our officials are also doing the same thing."

Zhang Yang said: "Our state cadres serve the people, and your officials serve the rich and privileged classes. This is the most fundamental difference between our two systems."

Qiu Fengxian protested: "We cannot generalize it. There are good officials everywhere and corrupt officials everywhere. As far as I know, the number of corrupt officials in mainland China is far more than that in Taiwan."

Zhang Yang said: "Where is the population base? Can there be not many corrupt officials?"

Cha Jinbei laughed and said, "Why did it get involved in cross-strait relations? If we don't talk about sensitive topics, it's not our turn to worry about it. Zhang Yang, I'm going to invite you to dinner today to discuss the investment in Jiangcheng New Airport. I have handed over the investment plan. What exactly does the city say?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Mr. Cha is too anxious. He just handed over the plan. I want to get a reply if I'm so anxious?"

Cha Beidao: "I hate domestic efficiency. It is quite simple. It has to be delayed. It is called "taking procedures". What procedures? If you can do it, it is OK, but if you don't, it is not OK. Why can't you be more straightforward?"

Zhang Yang said: "I don't like to procrastinate either, but I am not the one who is in charge of Jiangcheng."

Cha Jinbei smiled and said, "You have the final say in the new airport."

Zhang Yang said: "President Cha, that's called on-site command. I have the final say in the small matters and I will handle the actual things. But the real decision-making issues have to be decided by the city leaders. You are too proud of me."

At this time, the waiter opened a bottle of Wuliangye. Qiu Fengxian signaled the waiter to hand over the wine to her. She personally poured a full amount of wine to Zhang Yang and Cha Jinbei.

Cha Jinbei raised his glass and said, "I wish our future cooperation success, cheers!"

Zhang Yang smiled and finished the glass of wine with them.

Cha Jinbei slowly dropped his wine glass and said, "Zhang Yang, there is no need to hide our relationship. Give me a clear word. Do you want to watch me and He Chang'an fight and fight with him, and the fisherman will benefit?"

Zhang Daren pretended to be confused and held the wine glass that Qiu Fengxian had just filled up and said, "I don't know what the city means, but I personally tend to be on your side. I haven't read the investment plans on both sides carefully. But there is one thing I can be sure of. Some of your investment plans have been known by He Chang'an, so he has adjusted his investment conditions for you. Compared with you, his current conditions are not at a disadvantage."

Qiu Fengxian said: "Mayor Zhang means that someone inside us leaked the content of this investment plan to He Chang'an?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "I haven't said that, but this should be very likely."

Cha Jinbeidao: "I trust our group very much. I don't believe that anyone will disclose our investment plan to He Chang'an."

Qiu Fengxian said: "It may be that something happened to you."

Zhang Yang said: "Ms. Qiu suspected that I was still Secretary Du?"

Qiu Fengxian looked at him with anger and said, "I can trust Secretary Du and Mayor Zhang, but I know that this plan is not just you two."

Zhang Yang didn't say anything. Qiu Fengxian's words actually made sense. Du Tianye had already discussed the investment plan for Jinbei at the Standing Committee. Every member of the Standing Committee knows the content of the investment plan. God knows who revealed this matter to He Chang'an?

Cha Jinbei smiled and said, "It's nothing great to leak it out. He Changan will know sooner or later. I heard that he has done some work in the province. This time he is determined to win!"

Zhang Yang said: "It's not the end yet. God knows what decisions the city leaders will make. Judging from the current situation, the city will definitely make a decision between you two, but which one you choose may have to consider the conditions you have issued."

Check North Jin Road: "Sit down the mountain to watch the tiger fight, sit firmly on Diaoyutai."

Zhang Yang said: "It's not me, you are talking about the group of standing members in our city."

When Qiu Fengxian went to the bathroom, she met Qiao Mengyuan and Shi Wei sisters. Qiao Mengyuan had just arrived and heard that Cha Jinbei had arrived. Out of politeness, she and Qiu Fengxian came to the room to toast.

Cha Jinbei stood up with a smile: "Mr. Qiao is here!"

Qiao Mengyuan said: "I don't know that President Cha is coming, Mengyuan has neglected it. I hope Mr. Qiao will not blame him."

Cha Jinbei Road: "Just Qiao can come to toast me to check someone's face, how dare I blame me!" With the background and financial resources of North Jinbei, Qiao Mengyuan will not easily take others into consideration, but Qiao Mengyuan is not an ordinary person. Her grandfather is the respected old Qiao, and her father is Qiao Zhenliang, the current secretary of the provincial party committee of Pinghai. There are many powerful figures in the Qiao family in the system and in the army. Even the Cha family cannot compare with it. What's more, he wants to do Pinghai's business now, and Qiao Zhenliang is one of the ones who has absolute voice on this land.

Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Cha is so polite. I'll treat this tonight. I apologize for my negligence. I just welcome you to Mr. Cha." For Qiao Mengyuan, the new empress is just a way for her to communicate with all walks of life. She did not expect the new empress to make a profit. Such favors often happen.

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "What's wrong with me? Mr. Cha has a lot of face. Why don't you give me a free order when I'm having a meal?"

Shi Wei couldn't hear it, "I said Zhang Yang, did my sister usually invite you to dinner? You see, you gave birth to a corrupt official face, you are so greedy!"

If Zhang Yang had to confront Shi Wei in the past, since he was drunk in Dongjiang Shi Wei, the little girl's willfulness and trickyness also added a lot of cuteness to Zhang Yang's eyes. Zhang Daguanren smiled and said, "Have you sober?"

A common sentence made Shi Wei blush with his face. How could he not blush? His cousin Qiao Mengyuan told her that she was drunk and had lost all her composure and said everything. She was too embarrassed in front of Zhang Yang. Shi Wei bit her cherry lips and muttered in a low voice: "What does it have to do with you?"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not at all."

The more he said this, Shi Wei's pretty face turned redder, and he stomped his feet and said, "You are really not a good person, I won't tell you anymore!" He turned around and ran away.

Qiu Fengxian smiled and said, "Mayor Zhang, this is wrong. You are actually bullying the little girl."

Zhang Yang said: "I have always been bullied by little girls."

Qiao Mengyuan said: "Mayor Zhang, I will also like to greet you. You have always been a VIP guest of the New Emperor. You are welcome to come and have dinner at any time."

Zhang Yang smiled and had this drink with Qiao Mengyuan. Qiao Mengyuan wanted to leave immediately after toasting, but Cha Jinbei talked to her about the Nanlin Temple Commercial Plaza again, Cha Jinbei Road: "Mr. Qiao rented the shop opposite us to He Chang'an, where he opened a Jinzhi family and worked with us on gongs, drums and drums."

Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said, "I can't blame me for this. I can't be unable to get along with the money for giving me such good conditions."

Cha Jinbei smiled and said, "I just said that I didn't mean to blame Mr. Qiao. The competition between He Changan and me has been around for a long time, but his entry into the jewelry market was just beginning. I really couldn't figure it out. His business in the Jinzhe Family in Jiangcheng was much better than my Star Diamond."

Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said, "This is not surprising. Your Star Diamond focuses on design and taste. Faced with high-end people, the Jindiao Family cannot compare with you in the design of jewelry, but they work hard on the price. The same gold jewelry, their processing fee is much lower than that of you."

Cha Jinbei smiled bitterly and said, "Small profits but quick turnover. The part we are more expensive sells for art and creativity!"

Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said, "In the eyes of ordinary people, how much does a gram of gold cost? They can buy heavier gold from the Golden Diamond Family with the same money. Why do they choose you?"

Zhang Yang echoed: "Mr. Qiao is right. The largest consumer group in Jiangcheng is the people. Your things are beautiful and artistic. But they are all things that are made of snow and snow. A small stone, which you polish and sell more than gold. The group you are facing is people like Mr. Qiao. If you want to sell your small stone to ordinary people, it will be difficult!"

Qiu Fengxian smiled and said, "Mayor Zhang is exactly what we have. Our jewelry focuses on the high-end market and ignores the needs of ordinary people. Therefore, we are at a disadvantage in the competition with gold diamonds. Check the general manager, you might as well consider that our star diamonds should also make a people-friendly series."

Cha Beidao: "The positioning of Star Diamond is taste and luxury. If we do a people-friendly series, the value of our brand will be greatly reduced. It is obviously a snowy day, and we have to cater to Liba people. In the end, it may be inappropriate. The people did not cater to them well, and high-end customers were also lost." He explained again: "I don't mean to look down on ordinary people. I also know that the market scope is so wide and the purchasing power is so strong that it is not inferior to the high-end customer group in general."

Qiao Mengyuan said: "Niudiens can make huge profits, but only popular things can make huge profits."

Zhang Yang said: "In fact, there is no need to make a difficult situation when the new airport project is officially launched, there will definitely be a lot of money. If you can't use it with too much money, invest in the new airport project."

Check North Jin Road: "The new position needs to be fought, and the base area cannot be lost!"

Qiao Mengyuan smiled and said, "In fact, why doesn't Mr. Cha follow many foreign brands like this? The same group can create two different business chain models, just like Honda's Acura or Toyota's Lexus?"

Qiao Mengyuan's proposal made Cha Jinbei suddenly enlightened. He has always been obsessed with high-end and taste, which has nothing to do with his artist temperament. When He Chang'an entered the jewelry market, Cha Jinbei looked down on him. He believed that it would not take too long for He Chang'an, a layman, would be bleeding from the barriers of reality and leave the jewelry market sadly. But what he could not imagine was that He Chang'an not only killed in recent years, but also stood firm in a short time after entering. The products of the Jinzan Family have no design, no taste, and no mood, but such things are actually very popular, which made Cha Jinbei unable to understand. Qiao Mengyuan's words made him understand a truth: business is business, and problems must not be considered from an artistic perspective.

It is obvious to check Jinbei’s gratitude to Qiao Mengyuan. He winked at Qiu Fengxian. Qiu Fengxian took out a jewelry box from his handbag, smiled and handed it to Qiao Mengyuan and said, “I don’t feel respectful.”

Qiao Mengyuan refused repeatedly: "No, please don't be too polite, Mr. Cha."

Cha Jinbeidao: "This is the gold-inlaid jade series we designed for Mr. Qiao to taste. Mr. Qiao is naturally beautiful, and wearing our jewelry is also helping us advertise."

Qiao Mengyuan refused but had to accept it.

Zhang Yang watched from the side, Damn! This is so generous to check Jinbei. He gave out more than 100,000 jewelry, and it was all right for him to do it.

Of course, Cha Jinbei would not forget Zhang Yang, but because Qiao Mengyuan was present, he was familiar with Zhang Yang. After all, Zhang Yang was a person in the system and could not blatantly give gifts. When they left, Qiu Fengxian came to his car and handed him a handbag.

Zhang Daguanren said, "Don't let us do this, you are bribery, if I accept it, I will accept bribes." Zhang Yang really didn't want their things, as long as they did this, it would be done. This represents respect. Zhang Daguanren is a face-loving person, and he doesn't like being ignored by others.

Qiu Fengxian smiled and said, "It's just a little stone, you keep it to coax girls." She threw her handbag into the car without saying a word, waved her hand and crawled into the Mercedes-Benz car in northern Jin.

When Zhang Yang heard that he was keeping the girl to coax her, he felt less determined to refuse. He opened his handbag and took out the jewelry box and found that it was filled with some jewelry such as crystal jade, which were very exquisite, but it should not be too valuable.

His car window was suddenly knocked by the tuk. Zhang Daren was so scared that he hurriedly stuffed all the jewelry boxes into his handbags. He looked out the window and saw Shi Wei standing outside. The guy pushed open the car door and asked Shi Wei to get in the car. Shi Wei came to the co-pilot and sat down, staring at him and said, "What are you doing? Take stock of the bribery items!"

Official Zhang said nervously: "Don't talk nonsense, am I that kind of person?"

Shi Wei smiled and said, "Who are you not? You still take care of all the evil deeds of corrupt officials."

Zhang Daguanren smiled and said, "I don't have sex with you or gamble!"

Shi Wei spat: "Who knows, you must have to sneak in if you really do that."

Zhang Yang said: "I wonder, why is my young and promising national cadre so bad in your heart?"

Shi Wei said: "It wasn't you who caused it yourself!"

Zhang Yang said: "When you were in Dongjiang two days ago, you ate my hairy crabs a lot!"
