Xia Ruofei looked and quickly said, "Everyone! Everyone! There seems to be some news over there! You guys should go over first! Manager Feng and I can't run away. After the press conference, we will definitely be interviewed … "
A few reporters hesitated for a moment. They seemed to think that Xia Ruofei's words were quite reasonable. Their colleagues over there had already stood up. They didn't want to miss out on any valuable news in the end.
Thus, they quickly greeted Xia Ruofei and the others with smiles and left one after another.
"Chairman, are you really going to be interviewed later?" Feng Jing said with a smile.
"With our beautiful CEO blocking the fire, wouldn't it be easy for me to escape?" Xia Ruofei smirked. "I think these reporters are all your 'static'!"
Feng Jing couldn't help but pout coquettishly and wanted to hit Xia Ruofei. But she immediately realized that this was a public place. Not only were her colleagues sitting behind her, there were also many media reporters!
So, she abruptly stopped her hand and glared at Xia Ruofei. "It's all because of you!"
If it wasn't for Xia Ruofei insisting that she appear on camera, she wouldn't have inexplicably become an "internet celebrity". Although she didn't like to shop like other girls, and Taoyuan Farm was located in a remote area, she rarely went out except for work. But, her life was still inevitably affected.
Just like today, as long as she appeared in a public place, it was inevitable that she would be chased by reporters. It was a little annoying.
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "Sister Jing, you can obviously rely on your looks to make a living, but you insist on walking the path of a strong career woman. You're making those who aren't good looking have nowhere to go!"
Feng Jing's pretty face turned red and said coquettishly, "I'm too lazy to talk to you …"
Xia Ruofei laughed and teased Feng Jing. His attention couldn't help but be attracted by the reporters.
Many media reporters had already stood up and left their seats and walked towards the entrance.
Feng Jing also noticed this scene and couldn't help but ask curiously, "What happened?"
Xia Ruofei shrugged and said, "Who knows! Ignore them! "
Just when the two of them were guessing, a person walked into the venue surrounded by media reporters.
Xia Ruofei couldn't help but be happy when he saw it. It was an old acquaintance, He Kun, the Deputy Director of the Southeast Province's Drug Administration. He Kun was also in charge of the Chinese patent medicine department.
It was no wonder that the reporters were like cats that smelled blood and all gathered around to watch the drug conference of a company without a care in the world.
"Director He, may I ask why are you attending the press conference of Taoyuan Pharmaceutical Factory?"
"Director He! Are you representing yourself or are you representing the Provincial Drug Administration? "
"Director," He He Kun's to speak, Taoyuan's words. "
He Kun had a kind smile on his face. Even if the microphone was poking his face, he still didn't feel offended. However, his mouth was very tight. He just said, "Dear media friends, the protagonist today is Taoyuan Pharmaceutical Factory and Factory Manager Xue. I'm just here to watch the ceremony!"
Although the reporters didn't dare to ask too much because of He Kun's official status, the meaning behind his words could be understood by anyone with a discerning eye. They just wanted to know what kind of special relationship there was in private. Otherwise, why would He Kun attend the press conference with his sensitive identity?
He Kun's evasive answer made the reporters' imagination run wild. Even if there were some content that the media didn't dare to report, the self-media was so developed now. Who didn't have a few Weibo accounts?
Wouldn't it be a simple matter to post it on the internet?
However, they didn't know that He Kun came here today as a representative of the Drug Administration. The reason why he didn't say anything was that he didn't want to steal the limelight of Taoyuan Pharmaceutical Factory.
He Kun quickly noticed Xia Ruofei and the others. His eyes couldn't help but light up as he said, "Dear media friends, please make way. After the press conference ends, I will accept interviews depending on the situation. Now, please return to your seats!"
He Kun had been in a high position for a long time, so he still had some momentum. These reporters, who were known as the uncrowned kings, were still people in the system. Their questions earlier were already a little overboard. Naturally, they didn't dare to stop He Kun and made way for him.
"Boss Xia, long time no see. You're still as elegant as ever!" He Kun walked over quickly and said with a smile on his face.
Xia Ruofei also stood up and shook hands with He Kun. He smiled and said, "I'm flattered that Director He actually came to attend our press conference in person!"
"You're too kind!" He Kun quickly said modestly. "Your company's new medicine can be said to be boundless merit. It's only right for me to come and support you! Our Director Li just happened to be in Beijing for a meeting today. Otherwise, he would have come in person. "
Xia Ruofei didn't know who Director Li was, but judging from He Kun's tone, he was most likely their top leader.
The media reporters who often covered pharmaceutical news knew very well who He Kun was talking about. They couldn't help but be shocked.
Whether going to Beijing for a meeting was real or an excuse, since He Kun said so, it at least showed that Director Li attached great importance to Taoyuan Pharmaceutical Factory.
These reporters originally had some bad guesses in their hearts, but now they began to question their own judgment.
Xue Jinshan came in with He Kun — they were all old acquaintances. When the Heart-Nourishing Soup went to Beijing for approval, it was He Kun who personally went to Beijing with Xia Ruofei.
Later, in the process of approval, Xue Jinshan often dealt with He Kun.
He arranged for He Kun to sit next to Xia Ruofei, then said with a smile, "Director He, please take a seat and rest. The press conference will start soon."
He Kun laughed and said, "Director Xue, go do your work! I'll talk to Boss Xia for a while! "
"Okay!" Xue Jinshan said.
At this moment, a staff member hurried over and whispered a few words into Xue Jinshan's ear.
Xue Jinshan's face changed slightly. He quickly excused himself and hurriedly walked to the entrance.
The media reporters seemed to have received some news, and they all followed him out.
When He Kun saw this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "These reporters finally left …"
Just now, Xue Jinshan was standing next to Xia Ruofei. With Xia Ruofei's hearing, he naturally heard what the staff member said.
He laughed and said, "That's right! Someone diverted their attention, so Director He can relax a little. "
"Oh?" He Kun immediately came to his senses and looked at the entrance with interest. "Which leader is here?"
The answer was quickly revealed. The person who came was Jiang Liangyu, the deputy mayor in charge of science, education, culture, and health.
Although Jiang Liangyu and He Kun were at the same level, their authority was very different.
He Kun was only a deputy in a provincial unit, while Jiang Liangyu was the deputy mayor of this provincial city. Not only was he in charge of the health industry, but he was also in charge of technology, education, culture, and other fields.
Even though his ranking among the deputy mayors was not very high, he was still a deputy director. Furthermore, he was attending this press conference as an official, so he was representing the government.
Therefore, the reporters' enthusiasm was even higher.
Not only were the text reporters eager to ask questions, but there were also many photographers looking for a spot to take photos.
The deputy mayor's event was to be reported by the local media. Therefore, Jiang Liangyu also brought reporters to attend this press conference. This way, there were even more people around, and the scene was a little chaotic.
Fortunately, the veterans that Xia Ruofei temporarily transferred to maintain order were very experienced. They quickly opened up a path and escorted Jiang Liangyu and Xue Jinshan into the venue.
"Mayor Jiang, this is the chairman of our Taoyuan Company, Xia Ruofei. This is the general manager, Feng Jing!" Xue Jinshan introduced.
Jiang Liangyu was not very old. He looked to be in his forties, and he had an elegant temperament.
Xia Ruofei had accidentally seen Jiang Liangyu's resume once, so he had a little impression of him. He knew that the deputy mayor used to be a teacher and also worked in the education system for a long time. After he was promoted to deputy mayor, he was still in charge of science, education, culture, and health.
Jiang Liangyu immediately smiled and extended his hand to Xia Ruofei. He said, "I've heard that Boss Xia is young and promising, but I didn't expect you to be so young!"
"No, no, I'm young, but I don't dare to say that I'm promising!" Xia Ruofei said with a smile. "Mayor Jiang, you flatter me!"
"The Taoyuan Company is our city's star enterprise! Boss Xia is our Sanshan's star entrepreneur! " Jiang Liangyu joked. "If this doesn't count as young and promising, us old men would be too ashamed to live …"
Then, Jiang Liangyu shook hands with Feng Jing with a smile. It could be seen that he was a modest gentleman. His eyes were very clear, and when he shook hands, it was like a dragonfly skimming the surface of the water. He didn't do anything excessive just because Feng Jing was a beauty.
After exchanging a few words with Xia Ruofei and Feng Jing, Jiang Liangyu smiled and said to He Kun, "Director He is here too!"
He Kun had worked in Sanshan for a long time, so he was very familiar with the situation in Sanshan. He knew Jiang Liangyu even better — the two had worked together for a period of time.
"Haha! Mayor Jiang took time out of his busy schedule to come here. As the higher-ups in charge, we can't fall behind! "He Kun said half-jokingly.
Jiang Liangyu smiled and said, "Director He is right. We, the local government, and the authorities in charge, should pay more attention to a company like Taoyuan Pharmaceutical Factory!"
The media reporters couldn't help but look at each other. Wasn't this a little too obvious? Wasn't this kind of operation not popular now? Weren't they afraid of people gossiping behind their backs?
Jiang Liangyu and He Kun came to the press conference without informing anyone. Fortunately, Xue Jinshan was well-prepared. He adjusted his seat temporarily. Jiang Liangyu was in the middle, Xia Ruofei sat on his left, He Kun sat on his right, and Feng Jing was still sitting next to Xia Ruofei.
Xue Jinshan saw that it was almost time, and there shouldn't be any higher-ups attending, so he walked to the stage and signaled to the staff.
The lights on the stage gradually dimmed, and only a spotlight shone on Xue Jinshan.
The clamor in the venue naturally stopped, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xue Jinshan.
Xia Ruofei also paid attention to the situation on the stage with interest. Although he had instructed that this press conference shouldn't be too big, he was still very curious. How would Xue Jinshan do this press conference?
Xue Jinshan took a deep breath and adjusted the position of his headset. He then smiled and said, "Welcome, respected Mayor Jiang and Director He! Welcome, Chairman Xia Ruofei and General Manager Feng Jing of the Taoyuan Company! Welcome to all the media friends and colleagues of the Taoyuan Company! On behalf of all the employees of Taoyuan Pharmaceutical Factory, I would like to thank everyone for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend today's press conference! "
After a simple opening speech, Xue Jinshan paused for a moment and looked around. He then continued, "Before introducing the new drug that will be released today, I would like to invite everyone to watch a VCR!"
