Chapter 30 Farewell Banquet
On the weekend, Zhao Wenlong put wine in Huazhongcheng to practice for Li Rui. Those who came included Lao Zhao and Luo Xin from the Land Bureau, and Yu Meixia, the chief representative of Hong Kong Tengfei Group in Pengcheng.
The cooperation negotiations between Zhang Zhuoyang and Zhao Wenlong went smoothly. Zhang Zhuoyang invested 50 million to account for 65% of the shares, and Zhao Wenlong invested 20 million to account for 35%. After the commercial real estate project was reported, Executive Vice Mayor Li Yifeng attached great importance to it, so the various approvals of the project went smoothly and the construction was officially started soon.
Yu Meixia is the project leader sent by Zhang Zhuoyang to Pengcheng. She is from Hong Kong, in her thirties, plump and sexy. Li Rui certainly knows Yu Meixia. Twenty years later, this woman is already the executive director and CEO of Tengfei Group, and can be half of Zhang Zhuoyang's home. When he first saw Yu Meixia, Li Rui was a little surprised. Unexpectedly, Zhang Zhuoyang sent her over. After asking privately, he found out that several projects of Tengfei Group in HAINA in the past two years were also operated by Yu Meixia.
As for Lao Li and Luo Xin, Guo Wending has been very close to Li Rui since he became the Minister of Organization. Even when Li Rui was studying at the Party School, he invited him to have a dinner together every now and then.
Li Rui himself also invited a guest, Qiao Xianfa, director of the Section-level Equipment Department of the Municipal Coal Management Bureau. Qiao Xianfa and Zhang Guohui have a good relationship. He often participated in the activities of the youth cadre class in a small scale. This time Li Rui went to Nanqiao County Coal Management Bureau, and Qiao Xianfa was also the leader of the superior line.
Li Rui drove to Huazhongcheng. Along the way, he was wondering if he would call Gao Jie. A few days ago, he made Gao Jie several times, but the woman refused on the grounds of going home for dinner, which made Li Rui feel so angry. Why do I have to go to the county below? Even if I don’t give me meat, then I can drink some soup to enjoy my hands? It’s a pity that this woman just doesn’t give me a chance!
As soon as Li Rui stopped the car, he saw a Nissan Bluebird slowly driving into the parking lot of Huazhongcheng. Gao Jie, wearing a white dress, walked down from the car. Gao Jie usually dressed up in a professional outfit most of the time. Today, he knew that he had dressed up deliberately.
"Zhao Wenlong called you? I was thinking about calling you!" Li Ruiyang held the phone in his hand and said.
Gao Jie smiled and said, "Boss Zhao said that I will practice it for Director Li today. Of course I am coming. Why? Isn't you welcome?"
"How can it be!" Li Rui grinned and said, "You didn't come out the previous few times. Of course I'm happy if you can come today."
Gao Jie looked at Li Rui's happy look and felt sweet. A man who was obsessed with women was a compliment to women, not to mention that the man in front of her was also the one she was obsessed with in her heart. A few days ago, she had never agreed to Li Rui. First, she wanted to tease this little man, and second, she was really worried that she would not be able to control herself and completely abandon the last line of defense.
"When will you go to report?" Gao Jie walked over and asked.
"Next Monday, the day after tomorrow." Li Rui looked at Gao Jie with a grievance and said, "Look, I'm going to Nanqiao the day after tomorrow. It will be less convenient for us to meet in the future."
"Stop talking nonsense! Don't you have a car? It's only an hour away from the South Bridge. Okay, let's go in." Gao Jie comforted with a smile.
When I walked to the door of the No. 8 private room, I heard Yu Meixia's Mandarin with a strong Hong Kong accent: "Director Zhao, can the demolition progress be faster? The current speed is too slow, which directly affects the speed of our project progress."
"Manager Yu, the speed is already very fast now. According to the current progress, it is estimated that the National Day will be almost done." Lao Zhao said.
The introduction of this project is based on Lao Zhao, who is now mainly responsible for the follow-up of this project. Since Li Yifeng attaches great importance to it, Lao Zhao has been very proud recently and is in the limelight in the Land Bureau. But Yu Meixia, a Hong Kong woman, is really too difficult to deal with, and often makes Lao Zhao frustrated.
"According to the agreement, you should be responsible for demolishing the land before September 20, leveling it and handing it over to us. It is less than ten days yet, and I hope Director Zhao can strictly implement the terms of the agreement." Yu Meixia said bluntly.
It is definitely too late to do it in less than ten days. Lao Zhao now knows the Hong Kong woman in front of him and turns his attention to Zhao Wenlong. Zhao Wenlong just pretends that he has not seen it. Although he is also an investor, due to his small shares, the current project dominance has been transferred to Yu Meixia's hands. He has encountered many problems for such things, but he can't say anything. After all, Yu Meixia's various things are for the sake of the project.
"Miss Yu, I think it will not have a big impact on the progress of the project if it is ten days or half a month." Li Rui walked in with Gao Jie with a smile.
When Lao Zhao finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Li Rui coming in, Manager Yu had always been one or one, two or two, and he would complain if there was a slight deviation. Li Yifeng had criticized him several times. What he feared most was that things would make a big deal and then go to Mayor Li. Although he was proud now, whether it was OK or not, it was just a word from the leader. I don’t know how many people want to watch him lively now.
Li Rui is too familiar with the principles of Hong Kong people, and in this day and age, Hong Kong people feel good about themselves and look down on mainlanders. Although everyone has signed an agreement, unexpected things will happen in the demolition. Although Lao Zhao is a bit merciless, his work ability is pretty good. From the development and construction of the entire commercial real estate project to the future operation, there are many problems that need to be encountered in all aspects, and many aspects require support and coordination of government departments. Although Yu Meixia is doing things according to the agreement and has the support of leaders, you cannot be favored and offended everyone.
Yu Meixia knew that Li Rui was the younger brother of the boss and was also a small shareholder of the group. The boss also took special care of any problems he encountered and could go to him, so Yu Meixia was quite respectful to Li Rui. When she heard Li Rui say this, she opened her mouth and finally did not say what she wanted to refute.
Yu Meixia didn't know Gao Jie, and she was not surprised that Li Rui brought a beautiful woman over today. She was used to seeing the style of the boss. Like them, there was never a shortage of beautiful women around her. However, she soon discovered that everyone here saw Gao Jie coming in and stood up and greeted him respectfully. It seemed that this beautiful woman, known as Director Gao, was not a simple person.
"This is Ms. Yu Meixia, the chief representative of Hong Kong Tengfei Group in Pengcheng. Ms. Yu, this is Ms. Gao Jie, deputy director of our Pengcheng Mining Bureau Office." Li Rui introduced them with a smile.
Yu Meixia is not tall but plump. She looks delicate and decent in a sky blue professional outfit. She stands with Gao Jie, who is tall and bright, not only does not feel any incongruity, but it complements each other. The two women shake hands and greet each other, and soon become warm.
Because today is Li Rui's farewell banquet, Li Rui naturally became the center of attention for everyone. Of course, it is inevitable to take turns toasting. After a few rounds, most of the bottle of Wuliangye had already entered his stomach. Li Rui felt that he could not stop it and waved his hand and said, "You are just intentionally trying to put me down today and have to let me rest and eat a few bites of food, right?"
However, he was still quite happy. In the past, he had basically no friends in Pengcheng. Today, except Gao Jie, these people came together because of their own demands, but everyone was all friends after all.
Zhao Wenlong picked up a glass of wine and stood up, saying, "Friends, everyone, Mr. Li... Oh no, I should call him Secretary Li now! Secretary Li went downstairs to exercise this time. We all sincerely hope that Secretary Li can achieve success in his new job and strive to go further in his career!"
"Okay!" Everyone applauded and applauded.
Li Rui had to stand up again and smiled and said, "The wind was slight and the cold of Yishui. The hero will never return it once he left! I won't say anything today, just hope everyone won't forget me in the future." After that, he deliberately took a look at Gao Jie, then picked up the wine glass and drank it all.
Everyone cheered in unison, and then let Li Rui go and began to toast and chat with each other. Li Rui ate a few bites of the dishes before he recovered a little.
"Brother, if you need help from me in the future, just speak up. As long as you can, you will never be able to help me." Qiao Xianfa, who was sitting next to Li Rui, handed over a cigarette.
This guy knows Gao Jie and also knows who Gao Jie is. He originally didn't know the relationship between Li Rui and Gao Jie. Today, he saw Li Rui and Gao Jie coming in together, and the two of them had a very close conversation and behavior, so he was already careful.
"That's of course. I'll be troubled by my brother in the future." Li Rui took the cigarette and said with a smile.
Qiao Xianfa took the lighter and whispered: "Although Nanqiao Coal Management Bureau is a good life, I will still be more careful when you go down to work with Du Jinsong this time. This person is very difficult to deal with."
Seeing Qiao Xianfa's meaningful gaze, Li Rui felt a little more worried. Although he had been prepared for it, Qiao Xianfa was an old wizard of the coal management system after all. Since he said this, he should definitely not be aimless.
Chapter completed!
