The door of the office was open. Ma Xiaoning knocked on the door. After seeing Chen Xing nod, she entered the office with the woman beside her.
Chen Xing didn't say anything. His eyes fell on the woman. The woman was about 20 years old. She had delicate light makeup on her face. She was wearing a well-tailored office lady's suit, which not only showed her graceful figure incisively and vividly, but also showed the ability of a professional woman.
After glancing at the woman, Chen Xing quickly withdrew his eyes and looked at Ma Xiaoning in confusion, waiting for her to answer.
Mayor, this is Cai Jiachang. Before your secretary candidate is decided, she will be responsible for your work. Ma Xiaoning said.
Chen Xing was stunned and looked at Ma Xiaoning with deep meaning. He didn't give Ma Xiaoning an answer about the secretary's information, and Ma Xiaoning didn't ask anything. How could she guess his meaning so quickly?
Mayor, I will be responsible for your work these days. If there is anything wrong, please criticize and correct me. Cai Jiachang also spoke at this time.
Chen Xing nodded indifferently. Let's not talk about what Ma Xiaoning was planning. The staff in front of him behaved naturally and didn't show any restraint or nervousness in front of him, the mayor, which gave a good first impression.
Xiao Cai, you have to work hard these days. You have to serve the mayor well. Ma Xiaoning said to Cai Jiachang with a smile.
Director Ma, don't worry. I will definitely complete the task. Cai Jiachang nodded and looked at Chen Xing. Mayor, I will go out first. If you need anything, please call me at any time.
After Cai Jiachang finished speaking, she saw Chen Xing nod. Without further ado, she turned around and left. Chen Xing didn't look at her but looked at Ma Xiaoning. Director Ma, I have seen the list of personnel you gave me at noon. My suggestion is to add some candidates. Don't limit it to the secretarial department. You can expand it to all departments of the Municipal Government Office.
Okay, then I will reorganize the personnel information for the mayor to review.
Okay. Chen Xing nodded and said, "Director Ma, I'm new here and I'm not familiar with everything. If you have a suitable candidate, you can recommend him. It's better than me choosing blindly."
Mayor, it's mainly because I don't understand your requirements for secretaries, so I don't dare to rashly recommend them to you. I'm afraid that they won't be to your liking.
It doesn't matter if I'm satisfied or not, but if you recommend me, at least I have another candidate to consider, right? Chen Xing smiled faintly.
Mayor, what are your requirements for secretary candidates? Please let me know so that I can help you select them.
There are no requirements. You just have to recommend someone that you think is outstanding.
Ma Xiaoning was stunned by Chen Xing's words, but she quickly nodded. She quietly glanced at Chen Xing and said, "Mayor, if there's nothing else, I'll go now."
Go ahead. Chen Xing nodded.
Looking at Ma Xiaoning's back as she left, Chen Xing slightly frowned. Did Ma Xiaoning temporarily arrange a female staff to serve him? Was it intentional or not?
After pondering for a moment, Chen Xing soon stopped thinking about this problem. For a new mayor like him, everything was just to wait and see.
While Chen Xing was thinking about Ma Xiaoning's actions, Ma Xiaoning, who left Chen Xing's office, let out a sigh of relief. He didn't know whether Chen Xing asked him to recommend a secretary on purpose or if he really meant it. However, as a mayor who had served three terms, the only thought in his mind at this moment was that it was not easy to deal with every leader. He had to do his best to satisfy the leader. It was not only a kind of ability, but also a test of EQ and IQ.
Similarly, he shouldn't look down on the leader just because he was young. Those who could climb up in the system, no matter whether they had a background or not, were not simple. This was Ma Xiaoning's experience.
Sitting quietly in the office, various statistical data of Jiang City's economic development in the past two years were placed on Chen Xing's desk. This was the first thing that Chen Xing wanted to know after taking office. As for other aspects of Jiang City, he needed to work slowly in the future to understand them. In short, there were priorities. He had just taken office, so it was impossible for him to understand all the work at once. After all, he was a human, not a machine.
At about three o 'clock, there was another knock on the door. It was Cai Jiachang who came in.
Mayor, this is a party held by the General Chamber of Commerce of the City in the evening. They invite you to attend. Cai Jiachang held an invitation in her hand.
OK, got it. Chen Xing nodded slightly. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Which leaders in the city will attend?"
"Mayor, I'm not sure. I don't know which leaders have been invited by the Chamber of Commerce." Cai Jiachang scratched her head and quickly said, "Mayor, please give me a few minutes. I'll do it right away."
After finishing her words, Cai Jiachang left in a hurry. Chen Xing found it quite interesting to see Cai Jiachang's embarrassment. When Ma Xiaoning brought Cai Jiachang here, Chen Xing felt that Cai Jiachang's performance was remarkable. Cai Jiachang looked capable and should be a neat person. But now she showed her impatience again.
Cai Jiachang left quickly and came back quickly. She brought the answer that Chen Xing wanted. "Mayor, the Chamber of Commerce of the City in the evening also invited Secretary Fu and Deputy Mayor Wu, but both of them declined."
"Oh." Chen Xing frowned slightly. The Secretary Fu and Deputy Mayor Wu she mentioned were naturally Fu Jianjia and Executive Deputy Mayor Wu Sanli. Hearing that both of them declined, Chen Xing wanted to decline. But on second thought, he had just arrived in Jiang City. His situation was different from Fu Jianjia and Wu Sanli. Both of them had been in office for several years and were familiar with the local business circles. But he had just arrived. It was really necessary to attend this party.
"Xiao Cai, then tell the Chamber of Commerce that I'll be there tonight."
"OK."
In the blink of an eye, it was evening. Accompanied by Cai Jiachang, Chen Xing went to the Chamber of Commerce's dinner party.
At night, as an old five-star hotel in Jiang City, the entrance of the Jiangcheng Hotel gradually became lively as branded cars stopped one by one. Today, there was a huge banner hanging in a conspicuous position at the entrance of the Jiangcheng Hotel. On it was written, "Warmly Welcoming Mayor Chen to the City's General Chamber of Commerce's Evening Party."
At this moment, the President of the Jiangcheng Chamber of Commerce, Han Weiwei, and the core members of the Chamber of Commerce were standing at the entrance, waiting for the arrival of the leaders of the city.
President Han, today is the first day that Mayor Chen took office, and you were able to invite him over. That's really amazing. Beside Han Weiwei, a middle-aged man said in a slightly flattering manner.
Mayor Chen came to attend our Chamber of Commerce's evening party on his first day. This can only mean that our Chamber of Commerce is very important to the leaders of the city. This is the combined influence of all the members of the Chamber of Commerce. It's not just my credit alone. Han Weiwei smiled faintly. Although she said so, her tone more or less carried a little pride.
That's not entirely true. In the past few years, under your leadership, the Chamber of Commerce has been growing day by day. That's why we have such a situation today. It's all because of your leadership. The middle-aged man beside her once again flattered Han Weiwei. In social circles, one relied on one's mouth. Regardless of whether one had a background or not, it was necessary to build a good relationship with others. The man who spoke was obviously well-versed in this, especially the people in the Chamber of Commerce. Everyone knew of Han Weiwei's special background. Everyone wanted to build a good relationship with Han Weiwei. Who knows, they might have to beg Han Weiwei one day.
By the way, President Han, what's the background of this new Mayor Chen? I heard that he seems to be very young? Another person beside her asked.
This was not very clear. Han Weiwei shook her head, but a ray of light flashed in her eyes. She knew about Chen Xing's situation, but there was no need to tell others.
They're here. Squinting her eyes, Han Weiwei, who had sharp eyes, had already seen the car with the Municipal Government's license plate driving over.
Han Weiwei walked towards Chen Xing's car with a face full of smiles. Chen Xing, who was in the car, also saw her. At this moment, Cai Jiachang said, "Mayor, that's President Han of the City Chamber of Commerce.
Oh, the President of Jiangcheng City's Chamber of Commerce is a woman? " Chen Xing said in surprise. He took another look at Han Weiwei. She seemed to be in her forties.
Mayor, what do you mean by that? Are you looking down on us women? Can't a woman be the President of a Chamber of Commerce? When Cai Jiachang heard Chen Xing's words, she pouted.
I didn't mean that. Little Cai, don't put the big hat of discrimination on me. Chen Xing smiled and shook his head. This Cai Jiachang was quite bold. She dared to joke with him now.
As the two of them spoke, they had already gotten out of the car. Han Weiwei smiled and went forward. "Mayor Chen, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come."
President Han, your Chamber of Commerce has contributed greatly to the development of Jiangcheng City and made outstanding contributions. It's only right for me to come and support you. Chen Xing said courteously.
Han Weiwei didn't expect that Chen Xing would know of her. She was a little surprised but soon felt relieved. Since Chen Xing was here to attend the banquet, he must have done some homework. It wasn't surprising that he knew of her.
The two of them exchanged greetings at the entrance of the hotel. As the President of the Chamber of Commerce, Han Weiwei introduced some members of the Chamber of Commerce to Chen Xing. They were all local business owners. Chen Xing also shook hands with them politely.
When he lifted his head and saw the banner at the entrance of the hotel, Chen Xing frowned slightly. He turned to Han Weiwei and said, "President Han, should I take down the banner?"
Han Weiwei was stunned for a moment. Then, she lifted her head and looked at the banner. The banner had the words "Welcome Mayor Chen" written on it. She didn't think it was inappropriate. However, since Chen Xing didn't like it, Han Weiwei didn't hesitate. She said to the person beside her and took down the banner.
Mayor Chen, can we go in now? Han Weiwei smiled.
President Han, please. Chen Xing smiled faintly.
The group entered the hotel. Tonight, the Chamber of Commerce had booked an entire floor of the hotel for the banquet. The President Han Weiwei went on stage to give a speech and announced the start of the banquet. Then, she looked at Chen Xing and said, "Let's invite Mayor Chen to give a speech. Do you all agree?"
As Han Weiwei's voice fell, the banquet hall was instantly filled with voices of agreement. Everyone applauded and cheered. They unanimously requested for Chen Xing to go on stage and say a few words.
Since everyone requested, I'll say a few words. Chen Xing couldn't resist the crowd's request and went on stage.
When Chen Xing went on stage to give a speech, a middle-aged woman and a young woman were also looking at Chen Xing.
"Mom, what do you think of this new Mayor Chen?" The young woman asked the middle-aged woman beside her in a low voice. If one looked closely, they would discover that the two of them not only looked similar, but also had similar spirits. The middle-aged woman might have taken good care of herself, as there were very few wrinkles on her face. Sitting together with the young woman, they looked like a pair of beautiful sisters. At this moment, the middle-aged woman's brows revealed a hint of worry, which added to her delicate beauty.
"He's too young. He's probably too impulsive and lacks composure." The middle-aged woman shook her head.
The middle-aged woman's surname was Luo, and her name was Yuzhen. She was the CEO of Jiangcheng's Kemei Group. In the early days, Kemei Group started as a door processing industry. Later, it developed into a rather powerful furniture group. Beside Luo Yuzhen was her daughter, Zhang Xiaoyu. Although they were mother and daughter, when they sat together, they looked more like a pair of sisters.
"Mom, I don't think he's as good as the evaluation you gave him. Maybe he's the son of some leader and relied on his family's connections to become the mayor." Zhang Xiaoyu saw that Chen Xing was so young, but she didn't think much of him.
"Xiaoyu, don't look down on others so easily. To be able to become the mayor, he must have some ability. However, he may lack some experience. After all, he's too young." Luo Yuzhen shook her head. Other than Chen Xing's young age, which surprised her, Luo Yuzhen didn't doubt Chen Xing's ability. Because of her experience, she knew that she shouldn't look down on anyone so easily. In this world, there was no lack of people who didn't show their true abilities. There were many people who pretended to be weak. How could she look down on someone who could become the mayor at such a young age?
