Nominal: Who isn't a son-in-law?

If we can't win, we'll have to think things through again and find another way.

So he took out his phone, ready to call Liu Dong.

When he checked his phone, he found that the other party had sent him a message while he was in a meeting, saying that he had already boarded the plane and would arrive at Zhencheng Airport at 2 pm.

"Chairman Liu is a very generous man. He came directly to Zhencheng, along with Lao Zhang and Lao Miao. We are deeply grateful and will send you both to school one after the other!"

Since he couldn't reach Liu Dong, Li Dakang called Liu Yuchen directly.

『dudu』

"Hey, Comrade Yu Chen,"

"It's me, Secretary Li. You said Comrade Yun Yao and Comrade Quan Tao are both here."

"Okay, I just finished a meeting. The situation is about what we expected."

Li Dakang leaned back in his seat, gazing at the scenery outside the window, and said...

"All the cities in the province have their eyes on the Qiandong Group project. We don't need to worry about the other cities, as they are not very competitive. But we should pay attention to Xu Nuojun from Tianhe, who has already publicly stated his intention to compete. As the provincial capital, Tianhe is no less powerful or resourceful than us, and it is very attractive. The next week is the decisive window set by Secretary Chu. We'll see who wins the bid."

Liu Yuchen on the other end of the phone immediately tensed up. Although he, Bi Yunyao, and An Quantao were veterans, they were also newly promoted members of the leadership team due to job changes, and they understood the importance of this achievement to the entire Zhencheng leadership team.

As things stand, competing with Tianhe is indeed very challenging, given that their current municipal party secretary doesn't hold the position of deputy secretary.

No, thinking like that would be too hurtful to Comrade Dakang.

In the office, Liu Yuchen quickly shook his head, shaking off the train of thought influenced by watching 1566 every day, and said, "Secretary Li, Tianhe is indeed very strong, but I think we have a great advantage. Overall, Zhencheng has ten wins and Tianhe has ten losses."

"Oh? Zhencheng has ten wins, Tianhe has ten losses?"

Li Dakang was taken aback, then became interested and pressed on with his phone, "Comrade Yu Chen, tell us quickly."

Not only him, but Bi Yunyao and An Quantao, who were also in the office, were also very curious.

Liu Yuchen slowly took a sip of water, cleared his throat, and with a mysterious smile on his face, said slowly:

"First, Zhencheng has taken the lead and made complete preparations, while Tianhe is one step behind. We win, and they lose."

"That makes sense, continue." Li Dakang nodded.

"Secondly, Chairman Liu is already on his way to Zhencheng. The attitude we show in Zhencheng will be the first impression. Tianhe will not surpass us. We win, they lose."

"Yes, first impressions are fine, no problem." Li Dakang continued to nod.

"Third, Chairman Liu is from Qianzhou in Handong, and Secretary Li, you are also from Handong. Fellow townsmen, you feel close. Secretary Xu is from Baijiang. We will continue to win."

"Well, it's easier to get things done if you know someone, so I guess that counts."

"Fourth, is connections. I don't think I need to say anything about this. Chairman Liu is definitely a smart man."

Li Dakang agrees with this point: what is a network of connections? A powerful background is the greatest network of connections.

The name Zhong Zhenguo brought him, as a son-in-law, many hidden benefits.

As a businessman, Liu Dong would certainly be willing to get close to him.

"What other advantages do you have?" Li Dakang pressed.

"this……"

Liu Yuchen choked. Oh no, he'd said too much; he couldn't hold it in anymore.

"Let's not talk about that for now, Secretary Li. Just give your instructions and we'll see what to do."

"That's true."

Li Dakang immediately remembered the purpose of the call and instructed:

"Comrade Yu Chen, here's what I'm saying, I'm on my way to Zhencheng, you guys get ready."

"First, immediately compile all the relevant documents, ownership certificates, planning approvals, and supporting plans for the Yuanzhong Group plot in the High-tech Zone into a booklet and create a dedicated promotional manual that is clear at a glance and verifiable, so that Qiandong Group can see it clearly."

"Secondly, we will further refine the package of support policies, the full-process service team, and the implementation acceleration plan that we finalized last night, down to each department, each responsible person, and each time point, and form a formal written plan."

"Third, after I get back, we'll go straight to the airport to meet with the Qiandong Group's inspection team. We'll be very attentive and show them that as long as they're willing to invest, we don't mind working a little harder. We'll proactively communicate our preparations and finalize today's inspection itinerary. We want to be the first city in the province to take the initiative, the first to come up with practical measures, and the first to present a complete plan."

"Finally, please remember that we don't compete with Tianhe in terms of size or platform level. Zhencheng competes in speed, attention to detail, sincerity, and a commitment to ensuring everyone's safety."

"Remember this: this is Zhencheng's battle to turn things around this year, and it's also the battle for our new leadership team to establish itself. Only success is allowed; failure is not an option!"

"Understood, Secretary Li, don't worry, I'll make the arrangements right away. Please be careful on your journey."

"Um,"

Li Dakang nodded, preparing to hang up the phone, when his hand suddenly paused. Remembering what he had just said at the meeting, he quickly said, "Wait, Comrade Yu Chen, there's one more thing. We're vying for the main project, so the project is divided into sections. We'll support it landing in other brother cities. You and Comrade Yun Yao are locals, you know a lot of people, so contact them more often. We in Zhencheng won't hog all the benefits."

Oh, so they're trying to recruit followers to gain more support.

Liu Yuchen understood immediately; this was a good thing for them too. He immediately took on the task, saying, "Okay, Secretary Li, I'll make the contact right away."

After hanging up the phone, he put down his phone and said, "Comrade Yunyao, Comrade Quantao, you just heard it too. We must win, we cannot lose. This is the first real tough battle for us since we took office."

"Um,"

The two nodded solemnly. The project was successfully launched, and everyone benefited, achieving something worth noting.

If one person moves, many others can move as well.

If you work hard, you might not be able to move in the future, but if you don't work hard, you definitely won't be able to move.

"Mayor, you haven't finished talking about your ten wins and ten losses yet. I'd like to hear it."

An Quantao looked expectant. After all, Liu Yuchen could summarize ten wins and ten losses from this one matter. He was no match for him and needed to learn from him.

"I'd like to hear it too," Bi Yunyao said.

Seeing the two pressing him for answers, Liu Yuchen secretly regretted his boasting, which had left him somewhat embarrassed. In truth, the fifth victory would be the previous four victories, which Tianhe had not achieved, hence Tianhe's defeat. The sixth victory would follow the same logic.

But you can't say that; he still has a sense of shame.

So Liu Yuchen straightened his face and criticized, "Look at you guys, is the point about winning or losing? The point is to look at the results. If we get the project, even if we lose ten times or a hundred times, we're still winners. Also, can't you use your own initiative to think about where you won and where you lost?"

"Alright, get back to work, implement Secretary Li's plan, and then contact our colleagues in other cities."

"Ah, yes, yes, yes."

In the end, neither of them heard the complete theory of ten wins and ten losses. Later, it spread, and for many years, when people asked him about it out of curiosity, Liu Yuchen would just smile faintly and say that it was all in the past and a fleeting feeling, and he never mentioned the specific content again, thus establishing his unfathomable image.
