Li Dong was not going to let Li Kai off, and Li Kai also knew that Li Dong would not let it go.
After leaving the building Far Away, Li Kai hesitated for a moment before dialing a phone number that he had memorized in the depths of his mind.
The phone rang for a long time before it was picked up. The person on the other end of the line asked, "What happened?"
This number was rarely picked up, and every time it did, it was not a small matter. Li Kai understood, and so did the person on the other end.
Li Kai did not add fuel to the fire, nor did he distort the truth. He recounted the matter in detail.
It was not just this matter, but also the matter with Xiao Shan.
The person on the other end of the line was silent for a while. After a long time, he said, "Why bother? Since you have washed your hands, do your business quietly. Is there a need to clash with him head-on?"
Li Kai lit a cigarette and took a puff. His small eyes flashed fiercely as he said, "I was reckless this time, but I can't take this lying down! When I was licking the blood of a knife in Pingchuan, this little guy was still wearing diapers! I was tricked by him, and you tell me, I should just accept it? "
The person on the other end of the line clearly understood Li Kai's feelings. He thought for a moment and sighed. "Then what do you want me to do? I have been under a lot of pressure for the past two years. You can't expect me to go against Secretary Du's people, right? Old Li, take a step back and everything will be fine. We are both old. You and I are safe now because of our cautiousness. Today, Secretary Du went Far Away and made his position clear. This is not the time to act recklessly. Forget it. "
Li Kai blew out a puff of smoke and said, "I know. I don't plan to continue. But you know the temper of a wolf cub. Even if I don't touch him, he definitely won't let me go. If something really happens to me, can you run? "
The person on the other end of the line was obviously a little angry. He said in a slightly low voice, "Li Kai, how many years has it been? You know my character! Don't say such threatening words. Otherwise, even if Li Dong doesn't touch you, I will make you suffer! "
Li Kai's movements paused for a moment, then he put on a fake smile and said, "Sorry, I was a little emotional. People are afraid of death when they get old. You know, I'm afraid that the wolf pup will pester me endlessly. Now that he's powerful and has Old Du's backing, it's not impossible for him to expose my background. If something were to happen to me, would I still be able to hide it? This is not a threat. I'm telling the truth. "
The person on the other side of the phone did not speak again. After a long silence, the other party said, "I'll think of a way. Keep a low profile for now and take a step back when you encounter problems. This is the last time. If you do this again, don't blame me for not considering our years of friendship!"
"Du du du …"
The phone was hung up. Li Kai smashed the phone on the ground and crushed it with his foot.
Li Kai spat on the ground and said with a ferocious face, "Last time? As long as I don't die, you'll have to wipe my ass for me! "
…
The person behind Li Kai moved quickly.
Li Dong hadn't sorted out the company's matters, and he hadn't had time to deal with it, but the other party had come knocking on his door.
Of course, it was impossible for the other party to come in person.
The person who came to the building Far away to look for Li Dong was a chubby little old man. He had a kind face and looked like a good person.
According to the other party's introduction, his name was He Yongfu, the vice president of the Pingchuan Charity Association.
He came to look for Li Dong mainly to thank Li Dong for his support of charity.
At first, Li Dong thought that the other party was here to beg for alms. He wondered if he should pay some money to send this guy away.
However, as they chatted, Li Dong felt that something was wrong. Sure enough, He Yongfu's purpose was not as simple as begging for alms.
After a while, He Yongfu said, "General Manager Li, it's like this. A few days ago, our association nominated you to be the honorary vice president of our association. I'm here to ask for your opinion."
"Honorary vice president?"
Li Dong was stunned and asked in confusion, "Me? Am I too young? Can I? "
"Of course you can!"
He Yongfu nodded heavily. Then, he laughed and said, "You don't know this, but our association's executive president thinks highly of you. He thinks you're the most suitable!"
"That, President He, your association's executive president is …"
"Hehe, General Manager Li, you might not know this, but you should know our association's executive president. He's Li Kai, General Manager Li from ZhongTian International …"
Li Dong's mouth twitched. Then, he felt a strong sense of conflict.
Li Kai, executive president?
What was this?
A cat crying crocodile tears? A weasel in a chicken coop? A wolf in sheep's clothing?
Previously, Li Dong did not have any ill feelings towards the charity association. He only disliked the Nine Words Society and the Cross Society. The charity association had nothing to do with them.
However, from this moment onwards, Li Dong's life had taken a turn for the worse.
Damn it!
Li Kai, this gangster, became the executive president of the Pingchuan Charity Association. Are you kidding me?
Moreover, he understood He Yongfu's intention. Li Kai was trying to curry favor with him.
One Li Kai was probably not enough. Although the charity association was a social welfare organization, it was actually a semi-official one.
Li Kai alone did not have the authority to make Li Dong the honorary vice president. Someone must have given the order behind the scenes.
Using the title of honorary vice president to appease Li Dong and get Li Dong to keep the peace. This was probably what the other party was thinking.
Although the title of honorary vice president of the Pingchuan Charity Association did not seem to be of much use, it was actually quite valuable. Of course, it depended on the person.
At least for the current Li Dong, this title was not bad to use.
If the opportunity was right, he could use this as a springboard to enter the CPPCC and become an honorable member.
The other party must have seen Li Dong's shortcoming, which was his youth.
Otherwise, with Li Dong's current achievements, it would not be difficult for him to become a member of the CPPCC.
However, Li Dong was too young. It would be difficult for him to become a member of the CPPCC from the business world, unless he was from the Yaohai District. It would be difficult for him to enter the Pingchuan City CPPCC, let alone the Provincial CPPCC.
However, if Li Dong became the honorary vice president of the charity association, it would be a kind of qualification.
In the future, when the opportunity arose, he could at least become a member of the Municipal CPPCC, or even the Provincial CPPCC.
From the other party's perspective, the possibility of Li Dong agreeing was very high.
After all, it was just a dispute. Li Dong had not lost anything.
Now that he had given Li Dong compensation, he had profited instead. At this time, would Li Dong still care about Li Kai's mistake?
As a businessman, he knew how to weigh the pros and cons. An honorary vice president position should be enough to make up for Li Dong's loss.
This was what the other party thought, but Li Dong did not appreciate it. Especially when he knew that Li Kai was the executive president, Li Dong felt even more disgusted.
When He Yongfu finished speaking, Li Dong said bluntly, "President He, thank you. However, there's no need for me to be a vice president. I'm too young to take on this responsibility."
He Yongfu laughed and said, "General Manager Li, there's actually nothing much for the honorary vice president to do. It's just a simple …"
"There's really no need. Thank you. Take care. I won't see you out!"
This time, He Yongfu finally understood what he meant. His expression changed slightly, and he laughed dryly. "General Manager Li, why don't you think about it? Although the honorary vice president position does not have any real power, in terms of tax deductions and exemptions … "
"I said there's no need!"
Li Dong frowned. It would have been better if He Yongfu had not said it. Once He Yongfu said it, he felt even more disgusted.
Was this still a charity organization?
These people were more unscrupulous than businessmen. It was no wonder that even Li Kai could get the position of executive president.
Li Dong interrupted He Yongfu rudely. He Yongfu's face showed a hint of awkwardness. After a pause, he said, "General Manager Li, it's better to squash enmity than keep it alive. This is President Li's sincerity. Moreover, the nomination has been approved by the Department of Civil Affairs. Governor Liu, who is in charge of the Department of Civil Affairs, also thinks that you're very suitable. "
He Yongfu's words revealed a lot of meaning, but Li Dong understood.
Understanding was one thing, but Li Dong still did not appreciate it. He said, "Thank you, Governor Liu, for thinking so highly of me. However, forget it. I don't think I'm suitable for a high-class organization like the charity association. I'm afraid that I won't be able to resist slapping people when I get in."
He Yongfu glanced at him. He finally understood what outsiders meant when they said that he had a bad temper.
Usually, even if he rejected something like this, there was no need to be as resolute as Li Dong said.
However, Li Dong was merciless and sarcastic. There was no one else in the Pingchuan business world with such a character.
After all, he was just a lobbyist. It was not worth it to fall out with Li Dong. He Yongfu's mouth twitched, revealing an ugly smile. He said, "Since General Manager Li is not willing, then forget it. I will pass on this matter to President Li."
"Take care. I won't see you out!"
He Yongfu chuckled. He was not angry. He shook his head and walked out of the office.
After he left, Li Dong shouted, "Chen Ke, clean up the office. There's a disgusting smell!"
He Yongfu, who had just walked out of the office, stopped in his tracks. He snorted coldly and walked away quickly.
…
Li Dong had said it deliberately for the other party to hear. He really felt that it was a little disgusting.
If he said that he was a businessman or an official, he would accept it if he was a bit unscrupulous.
However, he was in the name of charity and was even a vice president. How could he be more unscrupulous than a businessman? This kind of person had tarnished the word charity.
Li Dong was starting to regret now. Which bastard had the money he had donated in the past?
He had naively thought that as long as he did not donate to the Cross Society, it would not be so unscrupulous if he donated to other charities.
However, he now realized that he had been too naive.
All crows in the world were black. To say that He Yongfu and the others were unscrupulous was an overestimation.
Especially with Li Kai as the executive president. Would they really do charity?
Fortunately, these guys were only from the Pingchuan Charity Association. He wondered if the charity association in the province would be better. The last time Li Dong donated to the provincial charity association, it was a special department that was responsible for this batch of funds. Hopefully, it would be better.
Shaking his head, Li Dong could not be bothered to think further.
In any case, he had made up his mind not to donate a single cent in the future. If he really wanted to do charity, he would have to do it himself.
Now that the group was established, it was time to put the group's foundation on the agenda.
However, before getting down to business, he had to get rid of the tumor, Li Kai.
Previously, Li Dong had been busy and did not have the time. Now that he had rejected Li Kai's request for peace, he had to make a move as soon as possible, lest that guy turned the tables on him.
