Xia Ruofei paused for a moment. When everyone's attention was on him, he smiled and said, "Tomorrow, our company will hold a special auction in Hong Kong. In this auction, many products of the Taoyuan Company, including the top truffles, abalone, caterpillar fungus, wild ginseng, and so on will appear. This auction will be organized by Hengfeng Group in Hong Kong. So far, the auction deposit has exceeded 300 million HKD. Some super-rich people in Europe and America, as well as the heads of world-renowned Michelin-starred restaurants, have arrived in Hong Kong in advance. This will be our company's first series of high-end products!"
There was a commotion among the reporters. Everyone paid more attention to the news from the mainland. The Taoyuan Company's product auction had been hyped up in Hong Kong for a while, but ordinary people in the mainland, including these reporters, were not aware of this news.
Some of the high-end auctions in Hong Kong were very well-known in the world. It was quite amazing that a company in the mainland could hold a special auction in Hong Kong for its products, and the auction deposit alone exceeded 300 million HKD.
No one doubted that Xia Ruofei had falsely reported this number, because the news of the auction was not a secret. Everyone just didn't pay attention to it before. Now that they knew the news, they just had to go to Hengfeng Auction's official website to check.
Moreover, the mobile Internet speed was very fast now. Basically, such high-end auctions would be broadcasted live. How many rich people would attend and how many people would be present could be roughly calculated through the live broadcast.
Therefore, Xia Ruofei's false number had no meaning. It would be exposed soon.
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "So, of course, we will not shift all of our focus to the production of Yuji Ointment just because it is popular! The company's strategy is to take the high-end and high-quality route. In the future, our company's product line will be more and more abundant, and the fields involved will be wider and wider. "
After Xia Ruofei answered this question, the reporters immediately raised their hands in unison. Everyone couldn't wait to continue asking questions.
Wu Liqian quickly appointed another reporter.
Then, several reporters in a row asked Xia Ruofei questions. Many of them asked about the details of the auction.
Ceng Jianzhang did not feel unhappy that he was left out. On the contrary, he was secretly relieved at this moment.
The female reporter's question just now made him sweat a little. In such a short time, he did not prepare an answer in advance. If he was not careful, he would say the wrong thing, and then it would be infinitely magnified by the media..
Now that everyone's attention was attracted by the auction that Xia Ruofei mentioned, he suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.
Ceng Jianzhang even secretly thanked Xia Ruofei. He felt that Xia Ruofei had chosen this time to reveal the news of the auction to divert the attention of the reporters.
After Xia Ruofei answered about four or five questions, Wu Liqian said, "Thank you for your questions. Because of time constraints, Boss Xia has to fly to Hong Kong to attend the auction, so today's session will end here. Thank you again for coming! Thank you! "
The press conference was over, but the reporters did not want to leave. They all surrounded the rostrum, hoping to continue asking Xia Ruofei questions.
Usually, after a press conference, the spokesperson would be willing to answer the reporters' questions, but Xia Ruofei was really in a hurry today, so he had to separate the crowd and say, "Sorry! Sorry! We have to go to the airport immediately. If you want to know more, you can contact our company's publicity department, or contact Hengfeng Auction House directly! Thank you … "
When they finally returned to the lounge next to the conference room, Xia Ruofei wiped his sweat and said, "The reporters are so enthusiastic …"
Ceng Jianzhang said with a smile, "That's because Boss Xia has your own traffic! Usually, when we want to release news in the county, many media outlets are not necessarily willing to come! This time, when we said that it was related to the cooperation with the Taoyuan Company, although we only contacted them temporarily last night, all the media outlets in Sanshan rushed over! "
Xia Ruofei did not expect Ceng Jianzhang to know the Internet slang of "our own traffic," so he could not help but feel slightly surprised. He smiled and said, "Secretary Ceng, you flatter me."
Ceng Jianzhang smiled and asked, "Are you really not staying for a meal? I have already asked the comrade from the county committee to book a hotel! "
Xia Ruofei shook his head and said, "Secretary Ceng, I did not lie to the reporters. We really have to catch a flight to Hong Kong. We even brought our luggage in the car today."
The airport in Sanshan City was located in Changping County. Xia Ruofei and the others had originally planned to go directly to the airport from Changping County after the signing ceremony and press conference, so they did not have to go back and forth from the city. Therefore, the few people who were going to Hong Kong had packed their luggage in advance and put it in the car.
"Okay! I won't keep you! "Ceng Jianzhang said straightforwardly," Boss Xia, I wish you all a great success at the Hong Kong auction! "
"Thank you, Secretary Ceng!" Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "We will push forward with the pharmaceutical factory project as soon as possible! Of course, we will also need help from Changping County in the early stages of the land acquisition. Otherwise, we will not be able to push forward with the land leveling and construction. "
"Boss Xia, don't worry about that!" Ceng Jianzhang said, "After the specific land acquisition area has been mapped out, the county will handle it. You all just have to wait for the land to be acquired! We also hope that the Taoyuan pharmaceutical factory can be completed and put into production as soon as possible! "
"Then I will leave it to you all!" Xia Ruofei said, "Secretary Ceng, Mayor Zhu, Mayor Wu, we will leave first!"
Xia Ruofei secretly winked at Wu Liqian, and Wu Liqian's eyes also revealed a trace of a smile.
Ceng Jianzhang and the others personally sent Xia Ruofei and the others out of the hotel. They waved their hands and watched as Xia Ruofei and the others left in the MPV. Then, they turned around and walked back.
In the hotel lobby, Ceng Jianzhang said kindly, "Mayor Wu, it is all thanks to you that this matter is so successful!"
"Secretary Ceng, you flatter me!" Wu Liqian smiled and said, "It is all because of the trust of the leaders and the cooperation of the comrades that this project could be concluded in such a short period of time! I did not personally contribute much! "
At this time, if it was necessary to say something conventional, then say it. If it was necessary to be modest, then be modest. After all, it was her contribution and political achievement, and no one could take it away from her.
Ceng Jianzhang smiled and looked at Zhu Zhihang, saying, "Mayor Zhu, a capable and modest official like Mayor Wu should be recommended to our party committee in the future!"
Zhu Zhihang smiled bitterly and said, "Secretary Ceng, Mayor Wu is my most capable subordinate! You are quietly stealing from me, and the work of the government is not going to be easy! "
Wu Liqian saw that the two leaders were joking around and could not help but be confused. She could not help but ask, "What are the two leaders talking about? Why don't I understand? "
Ceng Jianzhang and Zhu Zhihang looked at each other, then laughed and said, "Mayor Wu, Mayor Zhu has a problem with this! It is like this. Didn't Liu Haojun resign from his public office? Now the party committee is lacking a deputy secretary. After discussing with Mayor Zhu, I recommended you to the higher-ups, hoping to give you more responsibilities. The city has agreed to our recommendation in principle, so you can take care of the work at hand for the next two days and be ready to hand it over at any time! "
"Me?" Wu Liqian opened her eyes wide. "Isn't this a bit too sudden?"
Liu Haojun was forced to resign because of the scandal. Originally, Wu Liqian just felt relieved because she did not need to face his endless entanglement, but she did not think about fighting for the deputy secretary position. After all, she had been the executive deputy mayor for less than three years, and the deputy secretary position was equivalent to the third in command. Such an important position, logically speaking, would not be hers.
She did not expect that the position would fall on her head when she did not fight for it. This was an unexpected surprise.
Ceng Jianzhang smiled and said, "Now the position is vacant, but there must be someone to do the work, right? And with Mayor Wu's ability and prestige, you are the most suitable candidate to take over, so I don't think it is sudden at all! "
"Thank you for the trust of the organization!" Wu Liqian said.
There was no one who didn't want their career to continue to progress. Since she was given a more important position, she couldn't be unreasonable and refuse.
Although the deputy secretary and the executive deputy mayor had the same rank, the ranking in the team was not the same, so the importance of the two positions was naturally different.
Wu Liqian could go further on the basis of the executive deputy mayor in just one or two years, which could be considered as a promotion.
Ceng Jianzhang waved his hand and said, "It is mainly because of your excellent work performance! Mayor Wu, although the project contract has been signed, the working group cannot be disbanded. It can be a part-time temporary organization. Usually, the comrades will go back to be responsible for their daily tasks. Once the working group needs something, you can gather everyone at any time. The task of this working group is still to connect with the Taoyuan Company. The whole construction period of the project will take at least a few months. During this period, there will be a lot of things that need to be coordinated. At that time, your working group will be responsible for it! How about it? Do you have the confidence to complete the task? "
Wu Liqian said simply, "No problem! Secretary, please rest assured! But … Secretary Ceng, I have a request … "
"Do you still want to go back and continue the training class?" Ceng Jianzhang said with a smile, "Mayor Zhu has already told me. We respect your personal wishes. If you want to go back and continue your studies, there is absolutely no problem. But you will have to work harder when you are studying. Other work can be transferred to other deputy mayors, but you will still have to take the responsibility of the working group. When the time comes, you can remote command through email and phone! "
"Okay! Secretary Ceng, rest assured! I will not delay the work at home! " Wu Liqian said happily, "Also, the training class will only last for two months. I will be back soon!"
Ceng Jianzhang said meaningfully, "I am afraid that you will not be able to come back after the training! Such an excellent female cadre, if you are chosen by some ministry … "
"I think this possibility is very high!" Zhu Zhihang said from the side.
Wu Liqian smiled and said, "Leaders, please rest assured. I will not go anywhere. After the training, I will go back to Changping!"
"We will remember your promise!" Ceng Jianzhang said, "Then we will wait for you to come back!"
…
Sanshan Airport.
In front of a slightly shorter building next to the main terminal building, Xia Ruofei and the others got out of the car. Lei Hu, who was the driver, was busy taking everyone's luggage out of the trunk, while Xia Ruofei was delegating work to Xue Jinshan.
"Keep a close eye on the pharmaceutical factory project!" Xia Ruofei said, "We will not be in Hong Kong for long. These few days, we will mainly focus on the land acquisition. We need to keep in close contact with Changping County. If necessary, we need to urge them! You can contact Mayor Wu directly. She will spare no effort to solve the problem for us. While she is still in Changping, we need to get the land acquisition done quickly! "
The scope of the land that the Taoyuan Company needed had already been determined by the company. Therefore, Xue Jinshan only needed to cooperate with Changping County in the early stages of surveying and mapping, and then urge them to complete the land acquisition as soon as possible. The work was not complicated.
Xue Jinshan nodded and said, "Don't worry, chairman! This is the most important thing now! I will let the deputy director take care of the daily production work in the factory! "
"We can't relax the production safety either!" Xia Ruofei said, "Especially when the products we produce are either to be smeared on the face or drunk into the stomach. There can't be any safety issues. Otherwise, the reputation we've worked so hard to build will be destroyed!"
"Understood! I will supervise and check! "Xue Jinshan said.
Xia Ruofei patted Xue Jinshan's shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work these few days! When the pharmaceutical factory project comes to an end, I will give you a few days off. You can also enjoy your vacation. The company will pay for it. Think of it as compensation for not being able to go to Hong Kong this time! "
"Then I will thank the chairman first!" Xue Jinshan laughed and said, "Chairman, you should go in quickly! Don't miss the plane! "
"It's okay!" Xia Ruofei said with a relaxed smile, "Jinshan, we will go now!"
"Have a safe trip!"
Xia Ruofei led Feng Jing, Dong Yun, and Pang Hao into the building with their respective suitcases.
"Chairman, how do we get in from here? Isn't the departure hall in the building in front? "Pang Hao couldn't help but ask.
He had wanted to ask for a long time, but he hadn't found the opportunity. Xia Ruofei had been delegating work to Xue Jinshan.
Feng Jing smiled and explained on behalf of Xia Ruofei, "Director Pang, this is the exclusive passage for the passengers of the business jet!"
Pang Hao said, "Tsk tsk! I almost forgot that we are taking a business jet this time! Chairman, this jet must be quite expensive to rent, right? You really put in a lot of money! "
Xia Ruofei smiled faintly and said, "If I said that I didn't spend a single cent, would you believe me?"
Feng Jing and the others shook their heads at the same time. How could there be a free lunch in this world? Renting a jet would easily cost hundreds of thousands of yuan. Which company would be so generous to waive the cost? Xia Ruofei wasn't their father!
Indeed, Xia Ruofei wasn't Li Yifu's father, but he was his granduncle …
Xia Ruofei smiled and didn't take the initiative to explain. Instead, he led Feng Jing and the others through the security check quickly.
They were taking the Gulfstream G650 to Hong Kong today. The crew had already reported the passenger list and information to the airport in advance. The security check for taking a private jet was far less strict than taking a normal civil jet. Basically, as long as they didn't carry dangerous goods such as guns or bombs, they could pass through the security check smoothly.
On the other side of the security check channel, a uniformed stewardess had been waiting for a long time. She was a member of the G650 crew, and she was more than qualified to be a flight attendant in a normal airline.
Of course, the salary of the flight attendants of other airlines was far less than her salary as an ordinary flight attendant in this G650 flight crew.
