Liang Tianfeng pondered for a while in the car. Not long after, the car door was opened again. Pan Jingzhi got in with a flattering smile on his face.
Pan Jingzhi glanced at Liang Tianfeng first, then touched his cheek that was hit and said, "Director, that Wu guy is really too much. He's a leader, but he beat his subordinates in public in the bureau. He's more of a bandit than a bandit. I really don't know how someone like him became a leader."
"Well, this Wu Gang is really outrageous. He doesn't have the consciousness of a Party member at all. I think he's even worse than you." Liang Tianfeng smiled and looked at Pan Jingzhi. "Jingzhi, you didn't hit him just now, which shows that you're sensible and considerate of the big picture. You have a high consciousness. I think you're more suitable to be the Deputy Director than Wu Gang."
"Huh?" Pan Jingzhi looked at Liang Tianfeng in surprise. He thought that he didn't get punched in vain today. The leader had indirectly expressed his position. As long as Wu Gang resigned, then Wu Gang's position would probably be his.
"Director, what do you think about today's incident?" Pan Jingzhi tried to sound out Liang Tianfeng's intentions. Although he knew that Liang Tianfeng would definitely side with him, he still had to see what Liang Tianfeng's final attitude was. Otherwise, if Liang Tianfeng went too far, there would be no way to clean up the mess.
"What else can you do? Didn't you just call the police? Jingzhi, you're the victim. You've been beaten up. If you want to pursue the matter, then you should." Liang Tianfeng smiled.
When Pan Jingzhi heard Liang Tianfeng's words, he immediately knew that the leader wanted him to make a big fuss.
Getting Liang Tianfeng's affirmation, Pan Jingzhi was secretly happy. He knew that Liang Tianfeng didn't like Wu Gang, so he dared to show his teeth to Wu Gang. It seemed that he had done the right thing today. He obviously catered to the leader's wishes.
Pan Jingzhi got out of Liang Tianfeng's car after a while. In the office, Wu Gang hadn't left yet. Seeing that Pan Jingzhi had left, the anger in Wu Gang's heart subsided a lot. In fact, when he punched Pan Jingzhi, Wu Gang's anger had subsided a lot. After he punched Pan Jingzhi, he regretted it. Wu Gang felt that he was too impulsive. There was no need to be angry with a villain like Pan Jingzhi. To put it bluntly, Pan Jingzhi was Liang Tianfeng's dog. Why would he care about a dog that bites?
He walked to his desk and looked at his phone... He saw that there were three missed calls from Chen Xing.
"Chen Xing, you can't be at the hotel so soon, right? I'm still in the office now." As soon as the call was put through, Wu Gang said that the three of them had an appointment at night. Wu Gang thought that Chen Xing had already gone there.
"Not yet. Wu Gang, I can't go tonight. I have other arrangements. How about this, let's meet again tomorrow night. You can tell Zeng Jing." Chen Xing smiled.
"In that case, we can only meet tomorrow night." Wu Gang nodded his head in disappointment. However, there was nothing he could do. After all, Chen Xing was the mayor. It was normal for him to make some sudden arrangements.
"What were you busy with just now? I called you three times, but you didn't answer." Chen Xing had already packed up his things on his desk and was about to leave. He asked casually.
"Just now, it was just a small matter. Nothing." Wu Gang smiled. He wanted to complain to Chen Xing, but on second thought, he felt that it was meaningless. As a man, if he complained to someone when he was bullied, he would be like a woman. Moreover, he also knew that Chen Xing hadn't taken any action on his arrangements. It must be that there was no suitable opportunity. If he complained to Chen Xing, Chen Xing might think that he wanted to be transferred from his current position earlier, which was tantamount to adding trouble to Chen Xing.
They didn't talk much. Seeing that Wu Gang didn't say anything, Chen Xing naturally didn't think much. After hanging up the phone, Chen Xing also stood up and walked out. Fang Pingping was still waiting outside. Chen Xing didn't want to keep her waiting for too long.
"Mayor Chen, are you done with your work?" Seeing Chen Xing coming out, Fang Pingping immediately stood up.
They were all off work. If they didn't finish their work, they could continue tomorrow. Chen Xing smiled.
"Mayor Chen, tomorrow is Saturday. As a big leader, you should give yourself a holiday. Health is the capital of revolution. If you want to serve the people, you have to take good care of your health." Fang Pingping had a glib tongue. A woman who was able to thrive in the system naturally had a few tricks up her sleeve.
They went downstairs. Because they hadn't had dinner yet, Fang Pingping suggested that they go there after dinner. Chen Xing didn't object. Seeing that Chen Xing agreed, Fang Pingping was also happy. "Mayor Chen, which hotel are we going to?"
"Forget about the hotel. I'll get tired of eating in the hotel every day." Chen Xing shook his head with a smile and glanced at Fang Pingping. "If you don't mind, let's pick a special roadside stall and eat."
"Ah?" Fang Pingping was stunned. "Eat at a roadside stall?"
"Why? Mr. Fang isn't used to it?"
"No, it's nothing. Even Mayor Chen can eat. How can I not be used to it? I just feel that it is not in line with your identity as the mayor."
"Mr. Fang, what's wrong with being the mayor?" "Isn't the mayor also a human being?" "Ordinary people can eat at roadside stalls, but the mayor can't?" Chen Xing smiled.
"Mayor, you're right. You're the mayor." Fang Pingping flattered Chen Xing without hiding it.
Soon, they found a roadside stall and stopped to eat. It was a stall selling hot and sour noodles. Obviously, Chen Xing found this stall on purpose. They had passed by several stalls before, but Chen Xing didn't stop. When he saw this stall with the words "hot and sour noodles", Chen Xing suddenly had an appetite.
Chen Xing ordered a hot and sour noodle and a pancake. Fang Pingping, who was sitting next to Chen Xing, also ordered the same as Chen Xing. However, she ate uncomfortably. Looking at the dirty and messy surroundings, coupled with the exhaust from the passing cars on the road, Fang Pingping found it tasteless no matter how much she ate. Ever since she became the leader of a state-owned enterprise, Fang Pingping had been going in and out of star-rated hotels. She had also started to be particular about her food and clothes. She liked to pursue tasteful and classy food. Not to mention roadside stalls like this, Fang Pingping had forgotten how long it had been since she had eaten in a small restaurant.
Fang Pingping finally heaved a sigh of relief after the meal was over. Then, she and Chen Xing took a car to the company.
Fang Pingping had to admit that today, she had a whole new level of respect for Chen Xing. This young mayor was quite down-to-earth.
Mayor, some of the programs at tonight's evening party are prepared for the opening ceremony of the University Games. Tonight's internal party can be regarded as a training exercise. In the small auditorium of the Performance Group, Fang Pingping invited Chen Xing to sit in the first row and said with a smile.
"No other guests tonight?" Chen Xing glanced around.
"No, just you, Mayor Chen." Fang Pingping replied with a smile. She thought to herself, "Since you, the mayor, have agreed to come, why should I invite others?"
Chen Xing didn't know whether to laugh or cry at Fang Pingping's words. He was the only guest.
Fang Pingping had her own plans for tonight. It was a rare opportunity to be so close to Chen Xing, so she wouldn't invite others. Tonight, she said that she would invite Chen Xing to watch the party, but in fact, she still wanted to work hard for the company. Otherwise, the company would have a hard time this year. Even if she couldn't guarantee that she would get the quota from the city, she would at least seek financial support from the city.
Mayor Chen, the quota from the city is really not fixed? As soon as she sat down, Fang Pingping couldn't help but ask.
Regardless of whether it was a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise, everyone would be treated equally. Chen Xing smiled. He knew that Fang Pingping wouldn't give up. Tonight's party was going to be troublesome.
Mayor, when our Performing Arts Group was established a few years ago, the city listed us as a key state-owned enterprise, but they didn't give us much support. When we merged the City Song and Dance Troupe, the Acrobatic Troupe, the Drama Troupe, and the Folk Orchestra into the Performing Arts Group, the city said that they would give us an extra 100 million to support our development. In the end, they only gave us half of the money, and then nothing was done. In the past few years, if it weren't for the people in the group who tightened their belts, we would have collapsed long ago.
Mr. Fang, it's not that exaggerated. The Performing Arts Group is still doing well, which means that it has been doing well under your leadership.
Mayor Chen, what you see is just the surface. Now the market competition is fierce, and the company's operation is very difficult. We are not like the Newspaper Group, which can maintain a stable income. We can only publish a few newspapers, and the city can distribute the profits. It's like counting the money.
It seems that you have a lot of complaints. Chen Xing glanced at Fang Pingping and smiled.
I'm not complaining. I'm just stating a fact.
Alright, the party is about to start. Let's focus on the performances. I want to see the standard of your Performing Arts Group.
