In name only: In the name of Zhao Mengsheng's son!

As soon as Zhao Miao got off the plane, he installed the SIM card into his phone. He didn't even ask his father to arrange for someone to pick him up. He took a car directly to the provincial party committee compound!

The driver had initially thought that this guy from the airport must be a juicy catch, and he'd have to take a good bite out of him! But then he saw that Zhao Miao was heading to the provincial party committee compound, and after glancing at Zhao Miao in the rearview mirror, he saw that Zhao Miao had sharp eyes and white teeth, and looked like a noble young master. The driver was no longer interested in taking advantage of him and obediently used the meter!

"Drive in!"

When they arrived at the gate of the compound, the driver stopped, and Zhao Miao told him to drive in directly, as there were still a few hundred meters to go.

"this!"

The driver looked a little embarrassed; was this a place he could drive in? As if noticing the driver's hesitation, Zhao Miao laughed and said...

"It's okay, driver, just drive over there, I can get in using facial recognition!"

Upon hearing this, the driver understood immediately. This was indeed a young master, likely the son of a provincial official! He drove up to the gate and honked the horn.

An old man in a security guard uniform came out and was about to speak when Zhao Miao opened the window, stuck his head out, and laughed!

"Uncle Tang! It's me, I took the taxi!"

This Mr. Tang is no ordinary person. He is 75 years old this year and is a second-class meritorious serviceman in the Vietnam War. He was originally assigned a job and had retired, but he just couldn't stay idle. The organization assigned him a job guarding the provincial party committee compound!

He lives right next door and loves working the night shift, from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. every night. Then he goes home to sleep, gets up at 2 p.m., fishes until 10 p.m., takes a shower, and goes to work!

He wasn't like this before. He used to work the day shift because his wife was still alive and could keep him in check. But last year, his wife passed away, and his children are all working away from home. The old man has completely let himself go and has completely reversed his day and night! He's tanned like an African chicken! Every day, he's on his motorcycle, driving around all the fishponds and reservoirs in Jingzhou!

Zhao Zhongxin initially thought the provincial government's property management was ostracizing older employees, forcing them to work night shifts. He was even going to seek justice for the old man, a veteran who, despite his age, was still working hard. What were they trying to do? But it turned out the old man's daily routine was pretty much the same: fishpond, work, sleep! Zhao Zhongxin's routine was sleep, work, spa! Almost identical!

The property management is having a tough time too. Damn it, the old man is a retired division-level cadre with deputy director-level benefits. Do we dare to sideline him? They're all thinking, "Old man, you don't need to come to work anymore, we'll still pay your salary!" But the old man refuses!

We can't take advantage of the public resources in the slightest. The old man is very conscientious at work. Not only does Zhao Zhongxin greet him when he comes back in the evening, but provincial leaders like Sha Ruijin also greet him. He's a veteran!

The main reason is that the old man feels he can't let his fishing become too decadent. If he doesn't find a job, he might spend all his time at the fishpond! That wouldn't be good!

"Hey, Xiaomiao! You're back? Didn't you go to Tsinghua University to study? What are you doing back now? Your dad's still not home!"

When Old Tang saw that it was Zhao Miao, he smiled. Zhao Miao offered him a cigarette, which Old Tang accepted. He was about to open the gate when he suddenly saw Zhao Zhongxin's car returning!

"Hey, your dad's back!"

Zhao Miao turned around, laughed, and then tossed the driver a hundred yuan.

"Keep the change, please!"

The driver was stunned when he saw the Audi A6 behind him with license plate 00002, but then he thought it was normal. He had already guessed that Zhao Miao was a rich young master, but he didn't expect him to be this rich!

They took the money, turned around, and drove away!

Zhao Zhongxin had just returned from a spa treatment and was amused to see Zhao Miao standing there. He thought to himself that his son was quite fast; he had called him after get off work and he was back in just a few hours!

"Son, get in the car! See you later, Grandpa Tang!"

Zhao Zhongxin waved for Zhao Miao to get in the car, then greeted Old Man Tang!

"Yes, Governor!"

Old Tang waved his hand. He wasn't like Chen Yanshi, who addressed everyone as "Little Zhao," "Little Jinzi," "Yuliang," or "Guofu." He knew the proper hierarchy and wouldn't flaunt his seniority. True friendship is like water!

Even if you're very familiar with someone, you still need to address them properly, unless you're in a superior position or you're already part of a group and very close to them!

"Dad, I want Liu Yifei! I want Gao Yuanyuan! I want..."

While others were talking about Zhao Miao mentioning that a female celebrity would play his grandmother, Zhao Zhongxin shook his head and said, "My foolish son, there can't be any romantic scenes in this play. I just coaxed you into coming here. If there were any romantic scenes, your mother and grandfather would kill me!"

Upon hearing this, Liu Kun shook his head. "My young master, it seems you prefer older women! You can't handle these, they're your father's! No, no, they're the same age as your father! Can't you find some younger ones?"

But it seems like a good idea. Liu Lan's aunt was 30 years old at the time, which is great! Finding a 30-year-old actress is indeed a good idea!

"Don't say anything more, let's go home first! Ah Kun, contact the director tomorrow. Whoever you think is good enough, let them do it. Um, I only have one requirement for this movie, and that is that it must be realistic. The special effects must meet the highest world standards. Money is not a problem."

Money is not the issue; the only problem is the special effects fee. You ask those actors if they want their pay? Zhao Zhongxin dares to pay, do you dare to ask for it? Besides promoting his father, the more important reason Zhao Zhongxin does this is to donate all the money he earns to impoverished mountain areas to build a road or a few schools!

If Zhao Zhongxin really wanted to amass wealth, he wouldn't need to do this at all; wouldn't it have been much faster to seize it through trickery and force?

"Okay! How about we let the Culture and Tourism Bureau make the selection? I don't know anything about these things!"

Liu Kun just smiled. He was a man on a political career; how could he possibly know these people?

"Whoever it is, just make sure it's filmed well. As for the script, well, once they've chosen the right people, have them go to Beijing to have the old man give a statement—I mean, have him recount the details of what happened! And all the veteran actors who are still alive, have them tell their stories too!"

When Zhao Miao heard his father say that his grandfather should give a statement, his lips twitched. He felt that his old man was not reliable at all. It was a good thing that his grandfather was not here, or he would have hit him. A statement, my family has been clean for generations, a statement! You just gave a statement!

Zhao Zhongxin said, "I did give a statement. I used to be one of the two tyrants in Dongcheng District. I was frequently in and out of the police station. The principal was the one who often arrested me! You can ask him; he might still have the original copy of my statement!"

Liu Kun was speechless. Only your own son would say something like that!

"Understood, boss!"
