After talking about business, the atmosphere became relaxed. Jiang Feng and Chen Xing had known each other for a long time and could be regarded as friends. At this time, they chatted casually. Jiang Feng, who had always been arrogant, actually wanted to make friends with Chen Xing. In this society, no matter what profession you were engaged in, you needed connections. Chen Xing could be regarded as a high-quality stock in the system. Jiang Feng was optimistic about his future development. If he invested in him for a long time, he might gain something in the future.
Chen Xing didn't stay for long. After chatting for about ten minutes, he got up and left. As soon as Chen Xing left, the other two reporters who had wandered out just now returned to the room in time. Obviously, they were wandering around the hotel. When they saw that Chen Xing had left, they came back. They were still in the middle of the meal. Of course, the two of them were more concerned about the result of the conversation between Jiang Feng and the young county magistrate and what decision Jiang Feng had made.
"You are not full yet, right? Hurry up and continue eating. The food is still hot. Why don't you ask the waiter to reheat it? Thank you for your hard work today. You can't go hungry tonight." Jiang Feng greeted the two of them with a smile. She and these two new colleagues were all rookies at the provincial newspaper. The only difference was that she had been a reporter for seven or eight years and had made a name for herself. These two, on the other hand, were rookies who had just graduated from school a few months ago. She had chosen them to follow her to cover the news because they had a clean background. It should be known that the provincial newspaper had all kinds of small mountain peaks. It was common for some rookies to be robbed of their manuscripts by insiders after working hard.
The two young reporters happened to be a man and a woman. When they were wandering outside, they talked a lot about what had happened today. For the two newbies who had just graduated, tonight's temptation was really the first sugar-coated bullet they had encountered since they entered the journalism industry. Moreover, this bullet was big enough to make them dizzy. They hadn't completely recovered yet. 30,000 yuan was a lot of money for them. They had just started working at the provincial newspaper for a few months. Now, they were completely moonlit. Their monthly expenses basically consumed most of their monthly salary. This kind of temptation was really irresistible to them. No matter who it was, 30,000 yuan was not a small amount of money. The key was that it would be a waste if they didn't take it.
How could we be tired? Sister Jiang is the one who is tired. The young female reporter's mouth seemed to be smeared with honey, and she had a flattering smile on her face. Today, when she came down to run the news with Jiang Feng, she couldn't help but fantasize about the future. If she could be as famous as Jiang Feng, wouldn't she be rolling in money? How could she quickly make a name for herself? She definitely couldn't rely on herself. The young female reporter planned to take advantage of this opportunity to run news with Jiang Feng. In the future, she would work for Jiang Feng. As long as Jiang Feng was willing to help her, she wouldn't have to worry about her prospects in the future.
Sister Jiang, are we going to stay here and dig deeper tomorrow, or are we going back? The male reporter also said. In fact, he was still distressed about the 30,000 RMB red packet. When they were wandering outside, he and the female reporter next to him were discussing Jiang Feng's decision. The young County Magistrate had sent them away to talk about the pollution of the plastic factory. As the local magistrate, he certainly didn't want this matter to be exposed by the provincial newspaper. This was what the male reporter thought. If Jiang Feng agreed not to report this matter, then wouldn't he get the red packet? The male reporter was anxious to know Jiang Feng's thoughts, but he didn't dare to be too obvious. He could only test Jiang Feng's decision in this way.
Tomorrow, they would continue to dig this news and see if they could make it into a special topic. Jiang Feng said firmly. Although she had reached an agreement with Chen Xing, it didn't stop her determination to continue to dig deeper. At that time, she would write more about the positive role played by the Ximen County Government in the press release. Anyway, this was Chen Xing's bottom line. She agreed to Chen Xing's request and her purpose didn't conflict.
Oh. The male reporter nodded and lowered his head to eat two mouthfuls of rice. A look of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and he didn't feel anything while chewing the leftover cold rice in his mouth.
The next day, Jiang Feng went to Dawu Town with her two young reporters. She had an unwritten agreement with Chen Xing. Jiang Feng was undoubtedly full of confidence. Even if the plastic factory was protected by local evil forces, Jiang Feng was not afraid. She agreed to Chen Xing's request, and Chen Xing couldn't just sit back and watch at this critical moment.
Jiang Feng mustered up his energy and planned to make a special topic. The owner of the plastic factory, Chen Quanqing, hurriedly went to find his connections. Over the years, he had opened this plastic factory and made a lot of money. Every year, he had at least a seven-digit income. He made a lot of money, but he also spent a lot of money. He needed to bribe all kinds of immortals.
In the past year, the money spent on the red envelope was not a small amount, but compared with the money he made, it was not worth mentioning.
For Chen Quanqing, the plastic factory was a chicken that laid golden eggs, and also his lifeblood. Now, seeing that his factory might be in trouble, Chen Quanqing was really anxious, especially when he saw that the county magistrate, Chen Xing, was familiar with the female reporter. Chen Quanqing felt cold in his heart. He dared to use money to shut the reporter up, but he dared not put money in front of Chen Xing and say, "Here, I'll give you money, please don't ask about this matter." At least, before he knew Chen Xing's character, Chen Quanqing would never dare to do so.
The reason why Chen Quanqing could open this plastic factory and dominate this part of Da Wu Town was because the surname Chen was a local surname, and the Chen family was a big local family. In particular, in recent years, he had built a lot of connections. With the fact that he could call the Town Committee Secretary brother at the dinner table, no one in Da Wu Town dared to look down on him.
After Chen Xing and Jiang Feng left, Chen Quanqing went to find the Town Committee Secretary, Chen Tan. Chen Tan was a local, and he was from the same family as Chen Quanqing, so they were very close. Chen Tan helped Chen Tan build the three-story bungalow for his parents. The decoration and furniture were all paid for by Chen Quanqing. He had invested a lot in Chen Tan, and Chen Tan also took good care of him. The people who reported the plastic factory were the locals who lived near the factory. If Chen Quanqing knew who reported it, he would be retaliated. These extremely bad things were all suppressed by Chen Tan.
Chen Quanqing went to find Chen Tan. No one knew what they talked about, but the final result was obvious. Chen Tan had to stand on Chen Quanqing's side. He had received too many benefits from Chen Quanqing. Chen Tan couldn't just sit back and watch Chen Quanqing's affairs. Even though he knew that Chen Xing had even appeared in the plastic factory, Chen Tan had to try to show his face. At least for now, he was not clear about Chen Xing's attitude. Just because he appeared in the plastic factory, it didn't mean that Chen Xing would interfere in this matter.
When it was almost noon, Chen Xing unexpectedly received a call from Wang Dongchen's secretary, Chen Jun, who mentioned that a reporter from the provincial newspaper had come to Da Wu Town.
Chen Xing was originally thinking about the news that had just come from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee. It was about the candidate for the Organization Department of the Municipal Party Committee of Hai City. This was also one of the things that Chen Xing was very concerned about. After all, he used to be Zhou Mingfang's secretary. Although he was no longer in the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, there was no lack of people who were willing to pass him news. Everyone knew that Chen Xing was deeply favored by Zhou Mingfang. In the long run, a small county was not the end of Chen Xing's life.
In the future, he would definitely be able to go to a higher level. Zhang Mingde, the secretary of the Municipal Party Committee of Jian 'an City under the jurisdiction of Hai City, was undoubtedly also eyeing this position. He had been actively active and had specially had a meal with Chen Xing for this. He wanted to show his face in front of Zhou Mingfang through Chen Xing. In the end, Chen Xing also found an opportunity to mention Zhang Mingde in front of Zhou Mingfang. This was the best he could do. The rest was not up to him. When it came to the appointment of a deputy department cadre, it was not up to him to intervene.
After receiving the news from the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, Chen Xing thought that Zhang Mingde was probably not going to be the first candidate. According to the insiders, Zhang Mingde was not the first candidate, and the possibility of him being the last candidate was not high. Chen Xing was somewhat disappointed. If Zhang Mingde took the position of the Organization Department, then Zhang Mingde would also owe him a favor. It was not a bad thing for him to have one more helper in the city. Unfortunately, this idea would probably fail.
After picking up Chen Jun's call, Chen Xing's attention was slightly diverted. Chen Jun was Wang Dongchen's trusted aide. Chen Xing had to consider whether the call was from Wang Dongchen, and why Wang Dongchen was asking about this matter.
After Chen Jun called Chen Xing, he immediately dialed Chen Tan's number. Chen Jun's tone was not very happy. He hung up after a few words with Chen Tan. Chen Tan was a member of Wang Dongchen's faction, and was promoted by Wang Dongchen. He had always been close to Wang Dongchen, and he knew how to cater to Wang Dongchen's thoughts.
He was also very close to Chen Jun, and more importantly, Chen Jun had received benefits from him. Now that Chen Quanqing's factory was in trouble, Chen Tan had to go to the county to find someone, and the first person he would look for was Chen Jun. Chen Jun was also the easiest person to help.
Jiang Feng and the other two arrived at Da Wu Town again, and something happened that made them feel helpless. The plastic factory was temporarily closed, and they were rectifying their nickname. When Jiang Feng and the others went to the village to interview and collect some useful information, when the villagers heard that they were reporters, it was as if they had seen a ghost. They avoided them, and no one dared to approach.
