After lunch with Huang Ming, Chen Xing went back to work in the County Government.
At about two o 'clock in the afternoon, Yao Ping, the Deputy Director of the County Land Bureau, came to Chen Xing's office with a flattering smile. He said that he was here to report to Chen Xing. Sitting opposite Chen Xing, Yao Ping reported the recent situation of the Land Bureau to Chen Xing in detail. From time to time, he raised his head and secretly observed Chen Xing's expression.
"Well, good. You are in charge of the work of the Land Bureau now. You should take this responsibility seriously and get the work of the Land Bureau back on the right track as soon as possible." Chen Xing nodded and said. He saw Yao Ping's little tricks clearly and laughed secretly. How could he not know what Yao Ping was thinking? Zhang Wan, the Director of the Land Bureau, was also involved in Lee Zheng's case and was taken away by the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection for investigation. Now the work of the Land Bureau was temporarily under Yao Ping's charge. Yao Ping's idea was to sit on the throne of the Director. During the report, Yao Ping glanced at him from time to time.
"County Chen, don't worry. I won't let you down. I will do the work of the Land Bureau well." Yao Ping smiled respectfully. He looked at Chen Xing and said, "County Chen, it's not good for our bureau to be without a chief for a long time. If this goes on, it will affect the development of our work. Shouldn't the county decide on a new chief as soon as possible?"
Yao Ping said and stared at Chen Xing nervously. He couldn't figure out what Chen Xing was thinking. He was on Chen Xing's side, and he worked very hard to cooperate with Chen Xing in the case of Lee Zheng. Now the Director of the Land Bureau, Wang Zheng, was also involved. Chen Xing should support him, but Chen Xing didn't seem to do anything.
"Haha, Yao Ping, I will fight for what I should fight for for you. Just focus on your work." Chen Xing stood up and walked around the desk. He smiled and patted Yao Ping's shoulder. "I have seen your performance. I will treat you well."
Chen Xing had to comfort Yao Ping's impatience. He smiled and sent Yao Ping out of the office. Chen Xing also pondered. Chen Xing was not optimistic about Yao Ping. Chen Xing's evaluation of Yao Ping was that Yao Ping couldn't handle a big task. Chen Xing didn't trust such a person as his confidant.
Although Yao Ping was a weakling, he had worked in the Ministry of Land and Resources for more than ten years. He should be qualified for this job. Letting him be the director could appease him. Secondly, Yao Ping was now considered to be on his side. Letting someone on his side be the director would be more reassuring than letting someone else be the director. Chen Xing pondered in his heart. Having Yao Ping as the bureau chief was in line with his interests. As for Yao Ping being unreliable at critical moments, Chen Xing wasn't too worried. He had enough evidence to use against Yao Ping, and he believed that Yao Ping wouldn't dare to go with the flow.
At night, when Chen Xing returned to the small building behind the County Party Committee Guest House, he saw Zhang Ying's busy figure the moment he entered the door. After such a long time, Chen Xing had gotten used to seeing her every day. If he didn't see her one day, he would feel that something was wrong.
"Zhang Ying, has the school started yet? Why haven't you registered?" Chen Xing smiled and said to the girl in front of him.
"I have been studying for a few days. Brother Chen, if I wait for you to remind me, I won't go to class." Zhang Ying smiled.
"You have been studying for a few days? Don't you need to go to class tonight? " Chen Xing was surprised.
"It's not time for class yet. Class starts at 7 pm. I will go after sweeping the floor for you." Zhang Ying smiled and swept some invisible dust into the dustpan.
Chen Xing shook his head. "You sweep the floor every day. How can there be so much rubbish on the floor? You just have to come and sweep it every three days. You don't have to do it every day."
"Brother Chen, I can't do that. Cleaning for you is my task. If I don't do it well, Boss Wang will scold me." Zhang Ying shook her head and smiled. "Brother Chen, don't mention this again. You have said it many times. Besides, I feel uneasy if I don't clean for a day. It's like I didn't complete a task."
"You little girl, you feel uneasy if you don't do anything." Chen Xing smiled and knocked on her little head. Suddenly, his expression froze. Chen Xing suddenly thought of what Lu Ming had said this afternoon. Wang Cai was notorious and a pedophile. Wouldn't it be dangerous for a young lady like Zhang Ying to work under his nose?
Zhang Ying, does your Wang Zongping often say anything strange to you, or … or act strangely or something like that? Chen Xing turned to look at Zhang Ying. In his eyes, Zhang Ying was a little girl who had just become sensible. She was as pure as a piece of white paper. Although Chen Xing was asking, he didn't dare to be too straightforward in case he scared her.
"Strange words?" Zhang Ying was stunned. "No, no. Brother Chen, why do you suddenly ask?
Hehe, it's nothing. I'm just asking. " Chen Xing shook his head with a smile and looked at Zhang Ying seriously. Seeing that the other party did not show any signs of abnormality, he was relieved. He felt a little funny in his heart. He was really too sensitive. Even if Wang Cai had some bad habits, he should understand the principle that rabbits do not eat the grass near their burrows. It was impossible for him to lay his hands on the female staff of the hostel.
Chen Xing and Zhang Ying laughed and chatted. In the hotel room of the Success Building, the young man who had a dispute with Baldy Li at noon was being dragged out by several young men. The young man struggled with his hands and said angrily, "Who are you people? Why did you break into my room for no reason?"
"Our boss wants to see you. Hmph, you should come with us obediently, so you don't have to suffer any physical pain." The young man in the lead smiled and patted the young man's cheek. He looked a little sinister.
"What are you doing? This is a hotel. What are you doing?" The sound alarmed the people in the next room. At this time, the woman who wore sunglasses during the day heard the noise and ran out of the room. But at this time, the sunglasses on her face had already been taken off, revealing a beautiful oval face. The young men were stunned when they saw her.
"Beauty, we are doing something. Do you want to interfere?" The young man in the lead looked at the woman playfully and reached out his right hand to touch the woman's face. The woman was so scared that she dodged to the side.
The people in the next few rooms also came out. They were all companions of the woman at noon. When they saw the young man being dragged by several young men who looked like gangsters, they were all stunned. The middle-aged man's face tightened and he shouted, "Who are you people?"
"Who are we?" The young men looked at each other and laughed. "We are unemployed."
"Okay, don't just stand there. Boss Li wants to see this kid. Hurry up and take him away." The young man in the lead said to his companions.
"Director Tang, save me. I don't know where these lunatics came from …" The young man hurriedly said. Before he could finish speaking, he heard a slap. The young man had been slapped by the young man in the lead. The five finger marks on his face were clearly visible. "If you don't behave, I don't mind slapping you a few more times." The young man in the lead smiled sinisterly.
"Brother." Seeing her brother being slapped, the woman shouted anxiously and said angrily, "Let go of my brother. Otherwise, I will treat it as kidnapping and blackmail and call the police immediately."
The middle-aged man was stunned and then echoed, "Yes, if you don't let him go, we will call the police immediately."
"Hehe, call the police? If you don't want to lose an arm or a leg, you can call the police. " The young man in the lead sneered. "Don't say that I am threatening you."
When the hotel lobby manager rushed to the room, several young men had already pulled the young man into the elevator. The woman took out her mobile phone and really wanted to call the police. The young man in the lead turned his head again and smiled sinisterly. "You can try to call the police. Let's see what the police can do to us. As long as you are still in Xi Men, we can find trouble with you anytime and anywhere. Let's see how long the police can protect you."
Seeing this situation, the lobby manager was about to step forward and say something, but he heard the young man in the lead said, "Golden Jade Entertainment City, if you want to meddle in other people's business, you should weigh your own weight first."
This sentence was like an imperial edict, making the lobby manager freeze in place. He smiled bitterly, but did not step forward again. Seeing that the young man who spoke very impulsively at noon was taken away, the lobby manager already understood what had happened. In his heart, there was some pity and also some schadenfreude. The young man didn't know the immensity of heaven and earth. Now he finally tasted the bitterness.
The woman took the mobile phone and followed up. The middle-aged man and his party also hurriedly followed up. When they walked to the lobby manager, the woman said anxiously, "Who are they? Why did they kidnap my brother for no reason?"
"They are the local bullies of Xi Men. I advise you not to call the police. It's useless to call the police. It's only bad for you. You'd better apologize to him and admit your mistake. Maybe he won't care about you." The lobby manager shook his head.
"Apologize? Who do you mean by him? " "My brother didn't do anything to offend anyone. Why does he want to make life difficult for my brother?" The woman said anxiously.
"Oh, it turns out that it's my brother. It seems that you don't remember. At noon, your brother seemed to ask for thousands of yuan of compensation from others and cursed them. At noon, among those people, there was a bald man. Your brother offended him. As for who he is, let me tell you this. On the ground of Xi Men, if the police can manage it, he can also manage it. If the police can't manage it, he can also manage it. He is the underground emperor here. At noon, your brother called him a country bumpkin and cursed him bald. Look, he came to the door tonight." The lobby manager looked at the woman with some sympathy and thought, "Such a beautiful girl has such a stupid brother. She can't blame anyone if she offends someone."
"According to you, they are … from the underworld?" The woman's face was already a little pale.
"I didn't say that. You said it yourself." The lobby manager's face suddenly changed. He quickly cleared his name and looked at the woman nervously. "Miss, this kind of thing can't be said so carelessly."
The lobby manager said and hurriedly turned to leave. The woman and the middle-aged man anxiously stayed in the same place. When the middle-aged man heard about the underworld, his face also became a little flustered. At this time, the woman looked at the middle-aged man for help. "Director Tang, you have to help my brother this time. These people can do anything. You have to save my brother."
"Hey, Little Xin, they are the local tyrants. You should know that in our line of work, the most taboo thing is to offend these local tyrants. Otherwise, let alone filming here, we can't even protect ourselves. Your brother is really too much. He always looks down on everyone. Now, he really offended these ruthless people."
"Director Tang, it's too late to say anything now. I know it's my brother's fault. I've told him many times about his bad temper, but he can't change it every time. Hurry up and get my brother out." The woman's voice carried a trace of sobbing.
"Little Xin, you really think too highly of me. I'm the same as you. I'm not familiar with the people and the place. What can I do?" The middle-aged man smiled bitterly. He could only do as the manager said. Hurry up and buy some expensive gifts to apologize to them. Maybe they won't care about it.
"Will this work?" The woman murmured to herself. "Director Tang, when you first came to Xi Men, didn't you have dinner with the officials here? Those underworld people should give face to the officials. Can you try to ask them to come out and plead for us?"
"Yes, this method can be tried." The middle-aged man's eyes lit up. "I'll try to make a phone call first. Those people just said something about Jinyu Entertainment City. Let's go there first."
The middle-aged man called the deputy director of the county government office, Wang Zhong, and then the official of the county party committee's publicity department. Both sides agreed to help him. The middle-aged man was relieved.
Chen Xing received a call from Wang Zhong at around 8 o 'clock in the evening. Wang Zhong told him what happened in Jinyu Entertainment City. Chen Xing frowned slightly. After hanging up the phone, he took a car to Entertainment City.
In a luxurious office on the fifth floor of Jinyu Entertainment City, a young man was forced to kneel on the ground by several young men. In the direction he was kneeling, a bald man was sitting on a sofa cushioned with tiger skin. There was no doubt that the bald man in front of him was Li baldy, a tyrant in Xi Men County.
Opposite Li baldy stood Wang Zhong, the deputy director of the county government office, and Zhao Hai, the director of the county party committee's publicity department. At this moment, under Li baldy's gaze, Zhao Hai didn't dare to speak. Only Wang Zhong frowned slightly. Li baldy's bully behavior was no different from the underworld. Wang Zhong was disgusted, but he couldn't do anything about it.
Both Wang Zhong and Zhao Hai rushed over after receiving a call from the middle-aged man. The middle-aged man's name was Tang Bo, a contracted director of Beijing's Hongsheng Film and Television. Hongsheng Film and Television had previously shot a rural film in the natural ecological villages of Xi Men County. This time, Hongsheng Film and Television's new film about a college student village official came to Xi Men County. As the director of this TV series, Tang Bo and the staff of the company's public relations department had dinner with the county officials, including Wang Zhong and Zhao Hai. Now that they had offended the local tyrant of Xi Men County, Tang Bo could only ask Wang Zhong and Zhao Hai to come forward.
The young man's younger sister, the previous woman in sunglasses, was the protagonist of this film. Her name was Zhang Xin. The young man's name was Zhang Feng, and he was her older brother. Before, Zhang Xin had nothing to do but stir up trouble all day long. Later, when Zhang Xin entered the entertainment industry, he let his older brother, Zhang Feng, become his agent, which could be regarded as taking care of his brother and preventing Zhang Feng from continuing to fool around in society.
In the past, Zhang Feng's temperament was somewhat condescending. Furthermore, the mentality of a city dweller was especially obvious in his bones. When he came to Xi Men, the arrogant attitude of a person from the capital was clearly displayed. His nose was pointed at the sky, and he was just short of raising his head to the sky. He looked down on the locals and felt that the people of this small county were all country bumpkins who had never seen the world. Therefore, his words were very harsh. This time, he really offended a ruthless person.
Zhang Xin looked at her brother who was still kneeling on the ground. She appeared to be helpless and powerless. She could only continuously plead with Li baldy. As for the gifts she had bought in a hurry, when she brought them over, he didn't even look at them.
Director Wang, when will County Chen come over? Tang Bo quietly asked Wang Zhong. Right now, it seemed that Li baldy didn't give face to Wang Zhong and Zhao, and looking at Zhao's appearance, he seemed to be afraid of Li baldy. Tang Bo had seen the power of the bald man in front of him. Even the officials of the county couldn't do anything to him.
Therefore, Tang Bo could only hope that the County Chen that Wang Zhong mentioned would come. In his heart, he was also angry with Zhang Feng, who was kneeling there. If Zhang Feng's mouth wasn't so harsh, he wouldn't have caused so much trouble. Zhang Xin was the heroine of the play, so Tang Bo couldn't just ignore her brother. Otherwise, Tang Bo would feel that Zhang Feng deserved it. Who told him to speak without a filter all day and offend people everywhere?
They should be here soon. Wang Zhong slightly looked at the time and nodded.
Xiao Xin, don't worry, the leaders of the county will be here soon, and everything will be fine. Tang Bo comforted Zhang Xin on the side.
In the spacious and luxurious office, baldy Li sat high up on the sofa, looking down at Zhang Feng who was pinned to the ground by a few subordinates. The smile on his face was faintly discernible. You're the only one who dares to scold me baldy in so many years. Weren't you very arrogant in the afternoon, looking down on us country bumpkins from a small county? Why, are you terrified now? If you have the ability to repeat what you said at noon, then I really admire you for being a man.
Zhang Feng's lips trembled. The smile on Li baldy's face was similar to that of a devil's, and when he came over, he saw the big men in black suits downstairs. Now, even if he was stupid, he knew who he had offended. Looking at Li baldy with a flattering face, he flattered. Big brother, you are a great person, you can be magnanimous at noon, don't bother with a small person like me. I know I was wrong, but you have a big heart, don't bother with me.
Fart? Do you think this matter will be over after you say that? Baldy Li sneered. I don't mind others calling me Baldy Li, but I hate it the most when others call me Baldy Li. You've offended me. How should I deal with you to vent this anger in my heart? Do you want to break an arm or a leg? Choose for yourself.
No, no, big brother, I really know I was wrong, please don't bother with a small person like me. Zhang Feng's face turned pale, and he was almost scared to the point of wetting his pants.
General Manager Li, they are the staff of Beijing Hongsheng Film and Television Company, and they came to our Xi Men to film. If you do this, people will have a very bad impression of our Xi Men. Wang Zhong couldn't stand it anymore, so he said.
Li baldy glanced at Wang Zhong with a smile. It was not that Li baldy didn't see Wang Zhong calling Chen Xing just now, but he deliberately waited for Chen Xing to come over, so he deliberately wasted time with Zhang Feng. Otherwise, if he wanted to teach Zhang Feng a lesson, he would have already ordered his men to cripple him.
