Three o'clock in the afternoon.
Xie Huilan, Zhao Xinglong, and the rest are still inspecting the Investment Promotion Agency's office building. They had walked from the fourth floor to the first floor, and their inspection is almost over. Until now, other than the Investment Promotion Agency's leaders and a small group of staff, most people still don't know the project is cancelled. A Deputy Director from the Government Office is still instructing a few TV station's staff on what to do later.
"Secretary Hu, you must delay it a little longer."
"It's already three o 'clock. How can we delay it?"
"I'll think of something. I'll leave this to you guys."
After chatting with Hu Silian and Luo Haiting, Dong Xuebing went upstairs to avoid the County's leaders and returned to his office to make calls. Dong Xuebing's motive was simple. He must suppress this matter. Since he could not sign the contract for the chicken manure treatment project, he will change to another project. Anyway, he must let the County's Leaders host the contract signing today.
One phone call …
Two phone calls …
Three phone calls …
But how could it be so easy to sign a contract?
Usually, one might not even be able to get one in a month. Now, with such a short period of time, even some investors who had signed the letter of intent would not blindly decide to sign the contract. They had to consider, review, and estimate their profits and losses. After making a few calls, Dong Xuebing got nothing. He took a deep breath and smashed the phone on the table. "What the f * * k is going on?!"
Ring, ring, ring. His phone rang.
As soon as he picked up the phone, Zhao Xinglong's angry voice immediately pressed over, "Where are you? The contract was canceled? Xiao Dong … Xiao Dong! What kind of work are you doing? This will put Mayor Xie in an awkward position. Huh? "It was obvious that the inspection had ended, and the news had already spread.
Dong Xuebing could not refute. "It's our fault."
"It's more than that! You … what do you want me to say! "
"Magistrate Zhao, someone is stirring up trouble behind the scenes. Peng Kenong was still …"
"Don't tell me! Come here right now! You can explain to Mayor Xie yourself! You, you! You should know how much Mayor Xie trusts you! I'm here to host the signing of the contract to build momentum for you! But you all did this … What do you think Mayor Xie will think? "
Dong Xuebing also felt he had let down Xie Huilan and Mayor Zhao. Don't let me find out who's behind this! This was going too far! Dong Xuebing calmed himself down in his office and rushed downstairs. Now that things had come to this, he had to give the County leaders an explanation. He could not run away from the responsibility of his negligence.
Fourth floor …
Third floor …
Just as he reached the second floor, his phone was snatched again.
It was Luo Haiting's angry voice. "Chief, come here quickly! At the entrance of the courtyard! "
Dong Xuebing was stunned and did not have time to ask. He quickly walked down the stairs and saw no one in the courtyard. Xie Huilan, some County leaders, and the Investment Promotion Agency's staff are standing at the entrance, arguing. Something must have happened. Dong Xuebing ran over and saw a Buick MPV parked not far away. It's Sun Shuli's car, and there's a Mercedes parked in front of the Buick. Dong Xuebing immediately recognized this is Peng Kenong's car!
Sun Shuli was really angry. He started to quarrel with Peng Kenong regardless of the consequences.
"Boss Peng! Don't you have work to do at the company? Did you come to the restaurant for something? "
"I just finished my work and passed by here. No matter how important the matter is, I still have to eat."
"Our Investment Promotion Agency and County leaders are waiting for you! You're actually eating nearby? You don't even show your face? What's the meaning of this?! "
Dong Xuebing listened for a while and realized Peng Keqiang is not eating at a restaurant nearby. Sun Shuli drove out to look for Peng Keqiang, and when he returned, he saw Peng Keqiang driving out of the restaurant's carpark. He was furious and stopped his Buick MPV. Xie Huilan and Zhao Xinglong heard the commotion and ran out of the courtyard!
Dong Xuebing is furious. You are eating near the Investment Promotion Agency?! You don't even answer my phone! You still say you have work to do?! Are you waiting to laugh at us?!
Peng Kenong!
You're too f * cking much!
But before Dong Xuebing could vent his anger, something even more infuriating happened!
The Mercedes' door opened, and Da Feng County's Investment Promotion Agency Chief Pang Zhou and Mayor Li Feng alighted from Peng Kenong's car.
Da Feng County's people?!
Sun Shuli's face changed. "Mayor Li? Pang Zhou?! "
At this point, everyone finally understood!
Why did Peng Kenong change his mind in the afternoon?! Da Feng County had interfered with him! Li Feng and Pang Zhou must have approached Peng Kenong when he was having lunch here! They increased Da Feng County's investment incentives! This is more than the minimum incentives! This is why Peng Kenong, who values profits, changed his mind about investing in Yan Tai County! He is going to invest in Da Feng County!
Damn!
This is daylight robbery!
Pang Zhou pretended not to see them and stared at Sun Shuli. "Isn't this Chief Sun? Why are you stopping your car here?! Don't you know the traffic laws?! " Pang Zhou had met Sun Shuli in the past, and they are not on good terms. Sun Shuli is only a Deputy Bureau Chief, and Pang Zhou is not polite to him. "Take your car away! How dare you stop Mayor Li's car?! What are you trying to do?! "Pang Zhou is used to hiding behind others, and he mentioned Li Feng.
Peng Kenong did not say anything after Pang Zhou and Li Feng walked out. He does not want his relationship with Yan Tai County to be strained.
Li Feng's rank is too high, and when he appeared, the atmosphere froze.
At this time, a woman walks over. It's Xie Huilan. She narrowed her eyes, and those who know her well know that she is furious. "Mayor Li, you all had pulled over Mr. Peng's investment?"
Li Feng replied calmly. "We are about to negotiate."
Xie Huilan smiled and said. "Haha … Da Feng County's hand is too big. From what I know, our Investment Promotion Agency had signed a letter of intent with Mr. Peng, and we had agreed to sign the contract this afternoon. Aren't you all too rude to interfere?! I had always advocated healthy competition, and I want to show my advantages to the investors. This is a good thing. But now, we had signed the contract, and you all came all the way to our Yan Tai County to create trouble! Is this how you all treat your sister County?! Shouldn't you all give us an explanation?! "
Da Feng County and Yan Tai County's Investment Promotion Agency are not on good terms, and the higher-ups of both Counties are not on good terms. Li Feng did not want to go against Yan Tai County's leaders, as he had crossed the line. But now, he has no intention of backing down. "What you said is not right. The investors should consider where they want to invest, and we are only showing our sincerity. Mr. Peng will make the final decision! " Dong Xuebing did not mention that Yan Tai County had snatched the pork processing factory from Da Feng County.
This kind of competition between neighboring counties was common everywhere. This was originally a very wrangling matter. From the standpoint of each county and city, everyone was in the right, and there was no way to clear up the dispute.
Sun Shuli shouted. "You all are purposely creating trouble!"
Li Feng looked at him coldly.
Pang Zhou replied. "Chief Sun, how can you say that? Mr. Peng has not signed the contract with you all, and there is no need for him to fulfill the contract. Who says investors must invest in your Investment Promotion Agency? "
Zhao Xinglong's face changed. "What you all are doing is destroying the investment environment! Vicious competition! Why didn't you all agree to Peng Keqiang's investment in the past? Why are you all waiting until we are about to sign the contract before coming to our County to snatch our investment? Chief Pang! How can you all do this?! Ah?! You all came to our County to attract investors?! Since when did Yan Tai County change its name?! "
Da Feng County's despicable actions had angered everyone!
Yan Tai County's Investment Promotion Agency had snatched Da Feng County's project in the past, but that was before signing the agreement. At that time, Manager Liang had not verbally agreed to sign the contract with Da Feng County, and Liang Zeyuan is still inspecting Yan Tai County. This is a normal competition. But Li Feng and Pang Zhou's actions are intolerable. They are about to sign the contract, and they came to Yan Tai County to steal our project! This was no longer something that could be described as excessive!
They are too arrogant!
Both sides felt they are in the right, and the atmosphere is tense!
Sun Shuli knew it must be Pang Zhou's doing. He knows Pang Zhou well, and Li Feng is the County's Mayor. He will not go to Yan Tai County to snatch jobs from them. Pang Zhou must have said something to Li Feng to make him think Yan Tai County is bullying them first. That's why this happened!
On the road, Li Feng and Zhao Xinglong started arguing!
Pang Zhou looked at them and stood at the back with a smile on his face.
Sun Shuli has a bad temper, and he exploded when he saw Pang Zhou's expression. He rushed forward and looks like he is going to beat Pang Zhou up.
Luo Haiting panicked and quickly pulled Sun Shuli back. Jiang Hailiang also quickly grabbed Sun Shuli.
Pang Zhou looked at Sun Shuli coldly and was laughing in his heart. He knew no one will dare to beat him up.
The most taboo thing in the officialdom was to hit people. It was fine for criminals and blind villains, but if a colleague were to fight, the party who hit would definitely have to bear unimaginable responsibility. Anyone with a little bit of political wisdom would not do so. That would be making things difficult for their official hats.
"Chief Sun!"
"Calm down!"
Everyone held Sun Shuli back and tried to stop him.
Dong Xuebing suddenly walked over and shouted. "Old Sun! Come back! "
Zhao Xinglong and the rest saw Dong Xuebing did not flare up and even tried to stop Sun Shuli. They were relieved. Although they are angry, they cannot hit Dong Xuebing. Seems like Chief Dong's political wisdom had improved.
But the next moment, a scene that left everyone dumbfounded happened!
Dong Xuebing walked over to Pang Zhou …
"Ah!" Pang Zhou screamed in pain and flew out with his hands covering his face!
Bam! Pang Zhou's body landed on Li Feng, who is in a standoff with Xie Huilan! Swoosh! Li Feng tumbled on the ground! Pang Zhou and Li Feng's heads hit the Mercedes Benz's door!
Bang! Bang!
These two meaty sounds made everyone dumbfounded!
Zhao Xinglong, who thought Dong Xuebing's political wisdom had improved, almost cursed out loud! Fine! Ask Sun Shuli to come back! You are the one who wants to beat him up?!
