Late.
Hotel room.
Dong Xuebing and Meng Rui are on the phone.
Dong Xuebing is also angry and told Meng Rui about it. He wants the County Government to know it's not him and his colleagues from the Investment Promotion Agency who did not work hard. It's the City Government and the Investment Promotion Agency who are targeting Zhen Shui County. Even the Investment Promotion Agency and the other Counties in Meihe City knew the City Government is against them. That's why they joined forces to stop the County's Investment Promotion Agency from doing their jobs. It'll be strange if the County Government can still do their jobs under these circumstances.
"I know what to do."
"So, what else can we do?"
"But we can't be angry."
"I also don't want to be like this, but they are too much."
"I understand your feelings, but you still have to stay calm. Mayor Jiang and I will report this matter to the municipal government. What you need to do now is to attract investments and contact investors. This is the most important task. Apart from these, try not to conflict with the municipal government and the investment departments of other counties."
"I understand. I will not fall behind in my work."
"Whether the County can solve this financial crisis will depend on your investment. You had promised everyone at the Party Committee meeting not to disappoint us."
"Ok. Don't worry."
"Also, the Presidential Suite …"
"We can't refund the Presidential Suite, and even if we refund the Presidential Suite, we will have no place to stay. The real estate market will take back the Presidential Suite."
"But you can't have one Presidential Suite per person. Even if you pay for it yourself, what will people think?"
"Alright. I will clear a few rooms."
"Alright. Have an early rest."
After hanging up, Dong Xuebing took a deep breath.
Secretary Meng doesn't mind. It's best if he can get investors to invest, and he will also benefit from it. Although he might not get as many credits as Dong Xuebing, at least Meng Rui will be the head of the county, and his financial problems will be solved. But if Dong Xuebing does not get more than 50 million RMB, or the investors do not visit Zhen Shui County, then Dong Xuebing's resignation during the Party Committee meeting will come true. After Dong Xuebing leaves, Zhen Shui County will have one less troublemaker, and without Dong Xuebing, the Jiang Faction's influence will be greatly reduced. Without Dong Xuebing, the Meng faction will regain control of Zhen Shui County. That's why Meng Rui doesn't care. He is not anxious, but Dong Xuebing is. Dong Xuebing is the only one with no way out. No matter what, he must win this investment fair no matter what!
Dong dong.
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Dong Xuebing looks at the door.
The door wasn't closed, and Zheng Dayou walked in first.
Chang Juan, Chen Yunsong, and the others also arrived one after another.
Dong Xuebing points to the sofa opposite him. "Have a seat."
Zheng Dayou, Changjuan, Gong Na, and the rest sat down, waiting for Dong Xuebing to speak.
Dong Xuebing looked at everyone and calmly said. "I had wanted to give a summary of today's work, but there is no need. Everyone should know what we did today. The County Government had called earlier, and it's Secretary Meng. The County had also heard that our progress is not smooth."
Changjuan immediately said. "It's the City …"
Dong Xuebing waved his hand and interrupted. "I know there are some factors, but I don't want to find the reasons now. It's meaningless to find excuses. The County needs investments, and Secretary Meng and Mayor Jiang want to see our results. They don't know who is targeting us. Even if there are some factors that are not beneficial to our work, we must overcome them. The County needs results, and we also need results."
Everyone kept quiet.
Dong Xuebing continued. "That's why from tomorrow onwards, I hope all of you can focus on your work. Don't let someone's actions affect your work. We will continue to work and try to get a good start tomorrow. Are you all confident?"
"Yes."
"Ok."
"Yes."
Dong Xuebing did not mind.
"I will talk about the Presidential suite now. Secretary Meng had called me earlier to reprimand me. I thought about it, and it's pointless to argue with him. It's too conspicuous for each of us to have one suite. Even if I am the one paying for it, it might not be good. So, let's redistribute the rooms. My room and the room next to mine will be enough for all of us. Each suite will have two rooms and one guest room, and it should be enough for all of us." Even if they redistribute the rooms, everyone will still have their own room, and it will be a big room. It's much better than the four-story office suite.
Gong Na blinked. "What about the rest of the rooms?"
Chen Yunsong paused. "I think we can't return the rooms now. It's set for ten days."
Dong Xuebing replied. "We can't return the rooms now, but we don't need to return them. Just leave the rooms there. If any investors are willing to visit our County, we can let them stay in the Presidential suite during the visit. This is also to show off our County's capabilities."
Gong Na was speechless.
Chen Yunsong also had the same expression.
All of them could tell that although Mayor Dong had emphasized the impact on the city, his actions were still the same. He did not care about the impact on the city. If he really cared about the impact, he would have returned his apartment or moved downstairs. It was obvious he was trying to compete with the City Government.
Dong Xuebing said. "Everyone can discuss the rooms among yourselves. Pack up your luggage and rest. It's getting late, and we still have work tomorrow."
There are six of them, and Chang Juan and Gong Na are women. It's not easy to allocate the rooms.
Chang Juan looked at Zheng Dayou and Chen Yunsong and said. "How about I stay with Xiao Na in this suite?"
Chang Juan is the Deputy Bureau Chief and is close to Mayor Dong. It's fine for her to stay with Dong Xuebing. Furthermore, they are not staying together, and they will be in separate rooms. Gong Na nodded and agreed. Anyway, she will be sharing a suite with Chief Chang. The rest of the people heard this and decided on the room allocation. Zheng Dayou, Chen Yunsong, and Old Wei will stay in the Presidential suite next door.
Everyone left the room.
Everyone left the room.
Some of them carried their luggage, and some of them carried their luggage.
Dong Xuebing also did not expect Chang Juan and Gong Na to share a suite with him. He did not think twice before deciding. Now, he saw Chang Juan entering the suite with her luggage, and Gong Na hugging a bundle of clothes, revealing a white bra strap. Dong Xuebing felt something is wrong.
Dong Xuebing walked over to help them carry their luggage. "Sister Chang, Xiao Gong, why don't you two stay together? I will share with Old Zheng and the rest."
Gong Na quickly replied. "How can we do that?"
Chang Juan looks at Dong Xuebing. "That's right, Mayor Dong. How can we let you share with us?"
Dong Xuebing laughed. "I am afraid it will be inconvenient for you all."
Chang Juan replied. "It's fine. We are all in separate rooms, and there are bathrooms in the master bedroom and secondary bedroom. What's inconvenient about it?"
Dong Xuebing thought for a while. "Alright."
"Don't worry about it. Xiao Na and I will handle it ourselves."
"Let me carry it. Our luggage is not light."
Dong Xuebing grabbed Gong Na's luggage from her hands.
After a few days of interaction, Dong Xuebing had left a good impression on everyone in the Investment Promotion Agency. At least, Gong Na felt Dong Xuebing had left a good impression on everyone in the Agency. Not only Mayor Dong had helped her settle the paperwork for her promotion, but Dong Xuebing is also very kind and caring towards his subordinates. Gong Na felt Dong Xuebing is a trustworthy leader who will take the initiative to carry luggage for his subordinates.
There are three rooms in the suite.
Presidential Suite, Madam's Suite, and Guest Room.
Although there was a bed, it was more appropriate to call it a study. The room was not big, and the bed was not big, but there were a few bookshelves.
Dong Xuebing had not visited this room before. He carried Gong Na's luggage and noticed the room is small. He thought for a while and said. "Xiao Gong, there is no bathroom here. Why don't you sleep in the secondary bedroom, and I will sleep here?"
Gong Na panics. "No … no …"
Chang Juan looked into the room. "It is a little small. Xiao Gong, you can sleep with me."
Gong Na immediately replied. "I think it is quite big. It is much bigger than the VIP room downstairs. It's fine." She does not dare to ask Mayor Dong to prepare a room for her.
In the end, Gong Na was dragged to the First Madam's room by Chang Juan.
Dong Xuebing helped them to enter the First Madam's room and did not stay any longer. After all, this is a woman's room. He turned around and closed the door for them before entering his room. The room is spacious, and the golden bed is luxurious. Dong Xuebing took off his clothes and washed up before lying on the bed. He took out his phone.
I will call Zhang Longjuan.
Ring … ring … ring … ring … Dong Xuebing's phone is switched off.
Dong Xuebing was stunned. Sister Zhang's phone is never switched off. She is a very busy person and has lots of work to do. She will always look for her if there is anything urgent. She is the same as Dong Xuebing. Her phone is switched on 24 hours a day.
Her phone is switched off?
Could she be on a plane?
Sister Zhang is here? But why didn't she tell me?
Dong Xuebing was puzzled. He remembered Zhang Longjuan had told him over the phone that she will give him a surprise. But he does not know what she meant.
A surprise?
What is it?
Why did he come here so sneakily?
Or did she not come? Did she go on a work trip?
Dong Xuebing could not help but worry about Sister Zhang. From the current situation, it was up to Sister Zhang to raise 50 million RMB. If something happened to her and she could not come, Dong Xuebing would cry. He was at his wit's end.
