Chapter 111 110. Lovesickness

Two days later.

Jia Bo was officially transferred from Chaobai Town to work at the county trade union.

The team held another meeting to discuss and study the issue of adjusting the division of labor.

"After Jia Bo was transferred, a new deputy mayor should have been assigned to come here. But I've also asked the county, and they're busy at the end of the year, so there's no suitable candidate for the time being. The earliest we can find one is after the Lunar New Year!"

Qin Zhenggang said seriously, "People can wait, but work cannot. I have also consulted the county leaders. The economic work that was originally in charge of Jia Bo will now be handed over to Lin Xiao.

“However, economic work is stressful and the tasks are heavy. Considering that Lin Xiao is in charge of several tasks, our team needs to work together and share the burden.

"I've thought about it. Comprehensive law enforcement and comprehensive petition management will be temporarily taken over by Minglu. Propaganda work is also a part of the party's work, so Tu Hui will take over. What do you think?"

After these words were spoken, the three deputy mayors fell silent.

Lin Xiao knew that he had exceeded his authority in the matter of Xuefu Yaju and had become famous.

This is a taboo within the system.

In theory, Qin Zhenggang, the town mayor, is dedicated, pragmatic and hard-working, so the town leadership team is still very united.

However, no matter how united a group is, there will definitely be problems of one kind or another within it.

So now.

Lin Xiao knew that it was not appropriate for him to show up again, so he simply kept silent.

Tu Hui smiled and said, "Listen to Qin Zhen's arrangements. Everything should be based on the central work of our town!"

He laughed dryly twice and changed the subject, "However, it's the end of the year now, and I'm busy sorting out the annual work summary of our Chaobai Town. Qin Zhen, you will have to go to the county to make a report later.

"As the saying goes, 30% work is done and 70% is written! Our town has done so much work this year. If we can't put it on paper, it would be a waste of our comrades' hard work. So I really can't spare any extra energy for the time being..."

Tu Hui said, glancing at Lin Xiao casually, and then smiled: "The publicity work was previously placed with Jia Bo, mainly because economic publicity is the top priority, and it is easier to promote and carry out if it is under the same leader. Now it is divided into two, which is not impossible... In the future, I will communicate more with Lin Xiao, so as not to affect the publicity effect!"

The words were spoken in a friendly manner.

But the implication is clear: I'm too busy!
Qin Zhenggang thought for a moment and said, "What Tu Hui said makes sense. In the more than one month since Lin Xiao took over the publicity, the quality of the articles on our town's public account has improved significantly, and I think the number of readers has also increased. Now that the economic work has been handed over to you, it will be convenient for us to promote the town's economic highlights in the next step... Lin Xiao, why don't you take charge of it first, and we will make arrangements after the new deputy mayor arrives?"

Lin Xiao guessed this result when Tu Hui said those words.

"Okay, Qin Zhen!" he said with a smile.

"Minglu, what's your opinion?" Qin Zhenggang asked.

"Forehead……"

Jia Minglu's eyes rolled around, and after thinking for a while, he said, "My work here is also full, and the pressure at the end of the year is quite high..."

Qin Zhenggang's face suddenly turned cold: "It's winter now, the slack season for farming. All the departments you are in charge of are related to agriculture. Now should be the time when the pressure is the least. Saturation is a fart?"

Qin Zhenggang couldn't help but swear.

Jia Minglu was choked and didn't dare to say anything more. He hurriedly said, "I obey the organization's arrangements. I have no objection!"

Qin Zhenggang's face looked much better now.

Other work was discussed and the meeting was adjourned.

……

After adjusting the division of labor, Lin Xiao immediately plunged into his new job.

Economy is the town’s top priority, no doubt about it.

This is why other deputy mayors are in charge of a number of departments, while Jia Bo was only in charge of economy and publicity.

Later, the publicity was returned to Lin Xiao.

In recent years, the economy has been under great downward pressure.

Almost all provinces, cities, counties, towns and streets are busy attracting investment.

Even more than 70% of the annual assessment indicators are directly linked to economic data, and the annual assessment results directly determine the level of cadres' year-end performance.

This shows the importance of economic work.

Lin Xiao has just taken over, so of course there is pressure, but fortunately, the month before the Lunar New Year will be a buffer period for him to be in charge of the economy.

The previous year had ended under Jia Bo's management.

Various economic data are being compiled and released one after another. Whether good or bad, it has nothing to do with Lin Xiao.

Although this year has just begun, the annual plan was submitted to the county as early as mid-December, and the actual contact with enterprises will not be carried out until after the New Year - the New Year comes early this year, and the bosses are either busy submitting orders or paying fines during this period, and generally have no time to discuss new business!
Lin Xiao is now in a situation where a good cook is unable to cook without the rice.

Of course he couldn't rest either.

While reading materials, writing summaries, and doing publicity, we continued to contact the Dijin Group to strive to secure 100 million yuan of funds before the end of the year. At the same time, we focused on this project and gave it a prominent mention in the annual economic summary to make Chaobai Town look good in the county.

Although I sit in the office most of the time, I am still very busy.

On the other hand, Jia Minglu, who had just taken over the letters and visits, could no longer sit still.

The news that Lin Xiao successfully revitalized the unfinished building has spread throughout the town.

As a result, all the villagers knew that a young deputy mayor had come to the town. He was bold and responsible and kept his word. He promised the relocated households and project workers that they would receive relocation compensation and wages before the Lunar New Year, and tens of millions of funds were about to be received in the blink of an eye.

Such explosive news cannot be concealed even if one wants to.

In addition, Deng Guanghua and others didn't want to keep it secret at all. They happily traveled around the world and told the story vividly wherever they went.

In just a few days, Lin Xiao became the top celebrity in Chaobai Town.

During this period, he clearly felt that his relatives called him more frequently.

Especially his uncle and aunt from his grandmother's side, who seldom contacted him as a junior when they had nothing to do, but recently they would call him from time to time to invite him to dinner.

Lin Xiao felt something was wrong, but he didn't take it seriously.

But others couldn't sit still.

For such a big town, with a population of nearly 5, it is inevitable that there will be problems of one kind or another.

Before Lin Xiao became famous throughout the town, the villagers had hundreds of ways to solve their problems, but going to the town to seek help was a last resort only when they were really desperate.

But now, with the excellent demonstration of the Xuefu Yaju project, the credibility of the town compound in the hearts of the villagers has instantly soared to the top.

This is of course a good thing.

However, it also doubled the pressure of petitioning.

For several consecutive days, the petition reception room in the town compound was full.

Apart from eating and sleeping, Jia Minglu has almost no time to handle other work. He receives villagers from morning to night and listens patiently to their various requests. He looks visibly haggard.

On Friday, Lin Xiao worked overtime until seven o'clock and was ready to go home.

Just as I walked into the yard, I happened to see Jia Minglu seeing off the last wave of people. He had dull eyes, chapped lips, and was sighing.

"Brother Ming, you're busy so late again!" Lin Xiao greeted him warmly.

"..."

Jia Minglu didn't say a word and turned around and went upstairs.

Lin Xiao believed that he was definitely not ignoring him on purpose, but he really didn't have the energy to say another word.

He was also helpless in helping Jia Minglu's situation.

After all, the division of labor adjustment was decided through a team meeting, and the minutes were reported to the county after the meeting.

This work is actually under the charge of Jia Minglu.

At first, Lin Xiao thought that Qin Zhen made such adjustments because he just randomly picked a few items from his burden and took them away.

But after thinking about it, I found that it was not right.

Qin Zhenggang specifically brought out the comprehensive management petition, which was clearly intentional.

From Lin Xiao's perspective, he is willing to take responsibility and do practical things for the people.

But from the perspective of the mayor, the deputy mayor in charge of petitions is so warm-hearted that he promised to help when the masses came to visit...

It’s okay if it happens once or twice!

If this happens every time, the dozens of people in the town will have nothing to do but receive guests every day!
Although Qin Zhenggang did not find fault with him in this matter, Lin Xiao also knew that a unit did not operate in this way.

Qin Zhen's worries are indeed justified.

Giving this job to Jia Minglu now can, on the one hand, reduce his burden, and on the other hand, prevent the villagers from following suit and raising the white flag in the town every day.

Judging from the current situation.

Qin Zhenggang is indeed far-sighted and thinks ahead!
……

On the other side, Haicheng.

It's the end of the year and big companies are starting to hold their annual meetings.

Feihong Entertainment has had good performance this year, and as an entertainment company it is no exception and has made a big splash.

The company specially rented a conference hall in a five-star hotel, and everyone in the entire company was there - of course, some big-name artists had precious time, so they were not required to attend.

But as a newcomer, Han Xixi had to be present.

Although it is an entertainment company, there are only a few rules and regulations when holding an annual meeting.

Han Xixi originally came with the mentality of just getting by.

However, she did not expect that as the leaders spoke one by one, she was mentioned quite frequently, causing her to be noticed frequently even though she was sitting in the corner.

The family education she received since childhood allowed her to maintain the elegance and composure on her face.

After the conference, there was a working lunch.

Han Xixi took some food and hid in a corner with her manager Zhou Hui. Even so, she was still spotted by Zheng Zaimin, the vice president in charge of music, who came over with a tray of food and a lewd smile on his face.

Han Xixi couldn't help but feel nauseous.

Zhou Hui had said before that few of the male leaders in the company were clean and the entertainment industry was a dirty place.

But Zhou Hui also said that she was safe.

At least in the company, no male leader dares to hit on her.

Because her background is very strong!

Although Nanzhou is an underdeveloped province in central China, it is hundreds of kilometers away from the prosperous Haicheng.

It seems that the emperor is far away.

But anyone who has made it to the leadership level of a top entertainment company knows how the social classes are divided.

Now, the system of scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans certainly has problems with the order.

But "scholars" ranked first, and almost no one objected.

The company leaders must have nothing better to do than to challenge this authority for their own selfish desires - although Han Xixi is beautiful, there are many beauties in the entertainment industry, so it's not worth it!
At first, Han Xixi couldn't believe that his father's influence could intimidate Haicheng, which was so far away.

But over the past few months, she gradually came to believe it.

Not to mention that there were people who were so blind as to harass her, even the male leaders she occasionally met in the company would walk around her from a distance.

It's like meeting the god of plague!

Han Xixi gradually relaxed and for the first time felt the power of his father's identity.

Now, Zheng Zaimin took the initiative to move closer to her, and she was just disgusted but not very scared.

"Xixi, you've been developing very rapidly recently. I knew you could do it and I've always been optimistic about you!" Zheng Zaimin sat down a seat away and smiled in a rather flattering way.

Han Xixi and Zhou Hui exchanged glances and decided to remain unchanged in the face of ever-changing circumstances.

Zhou Hui smiled and said, "Boss Zheng, you've also seen how popular our Xixi has been recently. The company should be able to tell who is the real cash cow, right?"

"Of course, of course!"

"So there are some things that you really should take care of! Last time Fang Huiru snatched "Enemy" from us, and the time before that Yan Na snatched our first album away, and I saw that the company didn't react at all!"

These words were neither righteous nor righteous, and they made Zheng Zaimin feel embarrassed.

But to be able to sit in this position, the skin on your face must be made of iron.

Zhou Hui's two words of criticism were nothing more than a drizzle.

"There is a saying that goes, 'The blessed don't have to work hard, but the unblessed have to work themselves to death!'"

Zheng Zaimin bared his yellow teeth and smiled, "Xixi is a blessed person. She doesn't have to do anything. A big shot like Ma Yao took the initiative to give her a song. So if other songs are snatched away, then let them be!

"Besides, the quality of those songs isn't that great. Now 'Nuan Nuan' has reached number one on the new song chart, but Fang Huiru's 'Revenge' isn't even in the top 20... What else are you not satisfied with?"

Zhou Hui was unhappy when she heard this: "Teacher Ma Yao wrote the song because he saw Xixi's musical expression. That is also a resource we won by our strength. Why doesn't he write for others? This is different from the company's resources being robbed. President Zheng, if you still rely on Xixi to make money for the company, you can't be so muddy in the future, okay?"

This is a way to give both parties a way out.

Zheng Zaimin was very understanding and said with a smile: "Of course, the company has no grudge against money! Didn't you come to me a few days ago and ask me to apply to the company to adjust Xixi's contract from Class B to Class A? I thought about it and it is necessary. I have submitted a proposal to the board of directors and it should be approved soon!"

Zhou Hui's expression brightened and she exchanged glances with Han Xixi.

Han Xixi, however, felt that the company was not so kind and Zheng Zaimin should have more to say.

As expected, he paused for a moment and then said, "Xixi, the company has upgraded your contract, which is a great show of sincerity. Don't you have to show your sincerity to the company as well - hand over the contact information of this Ma Yao?"

Han Xixi was stunned.

"Ma Yao's contact information?"

"Don't say you didn't have it. If you didn't know him, why would he choose you, a newcomer, among so many big-name singers in the music industry?"

Zheng Zaimin asked in a firm tone, "Just tell me, are your singing skills so strong that you are the only one in the entire music industry? No one can sing the two songs "Human World" and "Nuan Nuan" better than you?"

Han Xixi was speechless.

Of course, she didn't dare to say such a bold statement, and there was no need for her to prove it herself.

"Mr. Zheng, I really don't know Ma Yao!" She said with a smile.

"...Xixi, you are no longer interesting!"

Zheng Zaimin was still trying to persuade him, "Bring Ma Yao under the company as soon as possible, it will also be good for you. Do you know that we bought the copyrights of these two songs through Cao Yuanzhi of Tiansheng, and it cost a huge price - it's not that the price is not worth it, but it would be fine if all the money was given to the songwriters, but everyone knows that Cao Yuanzhi will definitely take a cut!"

Zheng Zaimin said seriously, "Since Ma Yao has chosen you, then sign him to the company and let him write songs specifically for you. This way you can communicate more smoothly and save the middleman from making a profit. It's good for you, me and everyone, isn't it?"

These words made Zhou Hui think deeply, and it was obvious that she was convinced.

Han Xixi smiled and said, "Mr. Zheng, if I knew Ma Yao, I wouldn't mind passing on your invitation. But as I said, I really don't know him, so you should start with Producer Cao. I also hope you can succeed, so that I can express my gratitude to Mr. Ma in person!"

As he spoke, he smiled faintly, his face full of sincerity.

Zheng Zaimin hit a solid wall and the smile on his face froze.

I thought I was an old fox and it would be a piece of cake for me to control a little girl.

However, he didn't expect that this girl looked soft but was actually very strong. He was really choked and embarrassed, and left angrily.

……

After lunch, Han Xixi went to the parking lot to get in the car and prepare to leave.

As luck would have it, I ran into my arch-enemy Yan Na again.

Compared to Han Xixi's skyrocketing popularity and popularity, Yan Na's recent development momentum is very bad.

Although I was invited by Jingzhou TV to perform at the New Year's Eve concert, I sang a duet with several new singers and was on stage for less than three minutes in total.

After the performance, it didn’t even make it to the hot search list.

This situation is completely different from the time when Han Xixi sang three songs in a row during the prime time of Tomato Channel and was on seven or eight hot searches.

Yan Na has always regarded Han Xixi as a competitor, and now she is so angry that she is emitting sparks.

Han Xixi looked at her from a distance and didn't want to pay any attention to her.

But out of politeness he nodded.

As a result, Yan Na took this smile as a provocation and rushed over in her high heels.

Zhou Huike knew that this was a shrew, so she quickly stood in front of Xixi.

Yan Na didn't want to make a move, she sneered with a sour look on her face: "Han Xixi, you are amazing! You have a pure and innocent face, but you play more wildly than anyone else behind the scenes. You pretend to be a wife in front of people, and you attract fans without any bottom line. Behind the scenes, you are with a hidden boss like Ma Yao, and you don't mind the old man's meat. You are really bold! I admire you without even leaning on the wall!"

"Hey! Yan Na, what nonsense are you talking about! Do you really think that just because your uncle is the vice president, the company will be named after you? We can sue you for defamation if you say that, do you know that?" Zhou Hui was very angry!
However, Yan Na did not take this warning seriously at all.

With a sneer, she didn't give Han Xixi any chance to react and walked away again in her high heels.

Zhou Hui was so angry that smoke was coming out of her head.

Turning around to look at Han Xixi, I found that she, who was usually emotionally stable, also had unstable breathing.

Zhou Hui quickly comforted her: "Don't bother with this crazy woman..."

Han Xixi smiled gently: "Sister Hui, I'm fine!"

……

After a busy day at work, I returned to the apartment.

Han Xixi was lying on the bed, with Zheng Zaimin and Yan Na's words still spinning in her head, and she felt very aggrieved.

Only today did she find out that in the eyes of everyone in the company, her popularity was entirely due to Ma Yao.

It has nothing to do with her own efforts or abilities.

Many people even speculated that she and Ma Yao had an improper relationship - Yan Na said so directly, and although Zheng Zaimin did not say it, he realized later that this was what she meant!
This made Han Xixi feel unprecedented humiliation.

The key point is that she can't refute it, because she has no way to prove that she really has no relationship with Ma Yao!
So I can only swallow my anger and accept it.

In front of Zhou Hui, she could still pretend to be calm and say that everything was fine, but once she got home, she couldn't help feeling aggrieved and tears welled up in her eyes.

She forced herself to swallow back her tears.

He took out his cell phone and scrolled through his WeChat list, only to find Lin Xiao, whom he could talk to.

But I just wanted to send a WeChat message.

Xixi found that their chat history was still on the afternoon of January 1st, when Lin Xiao went to the airport to pick her up and sent a photo of the parking space.

After that, the two of them spent the entire New Year's Day holiday together, so naturally they didn't use WeChat.

From then on until now, half a month has passed.

The two never contacted each other once.

Han Xixi was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it seemed that he was always the one who took the initiative to contact Lin Xiao.

Apart from colluding with others in private, he hardly ever contacted me on his own initiative.

This discovery made her inexplicably angry!
"Humph, I won't call him anymore!"

“And there’s voice!!”

“And there’s a video!!!”

She thought indignantly and even swore an oath, but tears of grievance still flowed out of her eyes.

A person threw himself on the quilt and cried silently.
