Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 828 Old Chen's Attitude

Xiao Hong said, "I'm hungry. I smell food in this house." She even raised her hand and reached into the air.

Little Hui bounced around in Chen Hui's arms, raising his hands and shouting at Xiao Hong, "Oh? Oh. Yi ya oh er ha. Roll, roll er ga."

Chen Xiao said, "Why is this child so close to Xiao Hong? She looks right at me. Is she even my biological child?"

Xiaowei's mother laughed and said, "She just wants to play with him, you're just holding him. That kid from Xiaolong's family, I used to hold him all the time, he stopped following his mother and was always looking for me. Kids, they're like kittens and puppies at this age, they're affectionate with whoever plays with them."

Geng Hui said, "I'd rather find someone else. The difference is too great. They only care about me all day long, and they won't even let Xia hold me for a little longer."

Xia's mother said, "It's okay, I'll hold him more. He'll get used to it; it's just a process."

Xiaowei's mother said, "When we get back, we'll have Xiaowei set up a room in the annex for the kids to play in, so we don't have to carry them around all the time."

Chen Hui said, "Then all that work I did at home was for nothing?"

Xia Maosheng said, "What's the point of doing this for nothing? Just bring the toys and stuff, and the kids will have plenty to play with!"

Chen Xiao said, "He's not reluctant at all. He's afraid the kids won't have anything to play with. He's afraid he himself won't have anything to play with. The kids haven't even touched it yet, and some of the toys he's played with are already broken. Let's get to know each other again, this is my eldest son."

Everyone burst into laughter. Xiao Wei stood up and said, "You guys talk, I'll go over there and call Uncle Chen."

Xiao Wei went next door and explained the whole story to Lao Chen in detail.

Old Chen thought for a moment and said, "You probably haven't explored Jibei and Longjiang in detail. There are relatively few big cities in Jibei and Longjiang, much less than in Liaodong. There are only a handful: Bingcheng, Hecheng, Xidu, and Jibei. These are the only four places that are relatively large; the rest are small towns."

In Heilongjiang, the more economically developed areas are Daqing, Jixi, and Hegang. Heilongjiang has many coal-producing areas, mostly large mines.

There are even fewer in North Kedah. Apart from Kuala Lumpur and North Kedah City, only Chagan City is somewhat better.

So if you want to expand your business, these four cities are essential. The others are the places I just mentioned; anything else depends on the specific circumstances. Understand? In Jilin and Heilongjiang, Xidu and Harbin are unavoidable. Your idea of ​​doing it discreetly is unrealistic; anyone with a keen eye can easily find out.

Xiao Wei said, "Then what should we do? We can't possibly agree to his conditions. Maybe we should just give up and not do Longjiang. It would be good if we focused on doing well in Liaodong and developing Jibei."

Old Chen said, "You're so childish, you're oversimplifying things. It's not a question of whether you'll do it or not, it's that you've already crossed paths with them. Now it's a question of whether you'll offend them, and to what extent, understand? Don't think that just because he's in Harbin and you're in Fengtian, which is a long way off, it doesn't matter where you work at the vice-ministerial level. The influence is there."

Xiao Wei said, "Then what should we do? Should we just do what he said? That means we should just give him the money and accept the loss."

Old Chen said, "What a joke. I'm just explaining the reasons behind this to you. As for him, forget about him. Just do what you need to do. I'll have Lao Cheng take you to talk to Secretary Tian. Don't worry about Li Weiting; I'll handle that. That's all." He hung up the phone.

Xiao Wei put down the phone and thought about it, scratching his head a little. This whole thing was getting on his nerves.

On the other side, Old Chen thought for a moment and dialed a number.

After a few rings, the other end answered: "Feed? Who is this?"

Old Chen said, "Secretary Tian, ​​this is Chen Jianguo."

Secretary Tian paused for a moment, then laughed, "Oh, Director Chen, long time no see! What brings you here?"

Old Chen said, "It's getting late, so I'll get to the point. Today my son and a few of his buddies went to your place for some kind of investment conference. I heard it went quite badly; they were forced to drink and even got yelled at for being shameless."

Secretary Tian sat up straight immediately: "Your son? Liaodong Brothers Group?"

Old Chen said, "Yes, that's a company my son and two buddies tinkered with when they had nothing better to do. I'm not making this call for any other reason. Secretary Tian, ​​we all know what kind of person Li Weiting is. If it weren't for your help in covering for him, he would have been in trouble long ago. How many times has the central government investigated him? I don't care how he treats others, but don't try anything with my son. He's not qualified."

Investment is fine, I just talked to them, we'll follow your arrangements. We need to do business, we need to do other things, and we need to cultivate relationships. Last year, three people invested over 100 million in Xidu Laomi without telling me; I only found out this year.

To be honest, I never have to worry about what they do, and I'm quite satisfied with them.

You told me beforehand that you were going to my place, that you had sent me an invitation, but I didn't think much of it. Then you came up with this whole investment promotion bureau thing, and Li Weiting pulled this stunt again.

What do you mean by "just follow his instructions and don't worry about anything else"? What do you mean by "just follow his instructions"? Doesn't doing business in your Harbin fall under national law? Did the money end up in his Li family's pocket? What business is it of his, Li family, of our own investment in business?

Secretary Tian said, "Xiao Li is a bit domineering, but he's a capable person and fair in his dealings. Okay, I understand. I'll make the arrangements. Don't be angry, okay? Haha, when are you coming to Harbin? Let's have a good drink together."

Old Chen said, "If I didn't trust you, I would have just called them back. It's an investment, right? Both sides negotiate terms. They invest according to their own business philosophy, obey your management system, and pay taxes as required. I'm investing personal money, but what's this guy surnamed Li doing? Does he think he's the boss and everyone has to listen to him?"

Secretary Tian said, "Don't be angry, he doesn't understand the situation either. I'll handle this, I'll explain, okay?"

Old Chen said, "Tell him to stay away from my son. If he piss me off, I'll file a formal complaint against him at the central government level and see if I can get rid of him. He's really absurd. Also, that pellet factory, I don't know who you have ties to, but please tell Secretary Tian to tell them to change careers and not do business in electricity anymore."

Secretary Tian said, "I really don't know the details. Okay, I'll ask around. Have your sons come to my office tomorrow. By the way, what about that matter in our city?"

Old Chen said, "The results aren't out yet. I'll call you when they are. Don't worry, I'll say what I need to say."

Secretary Tian asked, "Old Chen, shouldn't you be getting a move next year?"

Old Chen said, "Yes, it's settled, but it hasn't been announced yet. When I go to the ministry, Lao Cheng will come to pick me up."

Secretary Tian said, "That's good, that's good. Now I feel more at ease. Haha, congratulations! I'll treat you to a drink later."

Old Chen said, "It's just a lateral transfer, what's there to congratulate?"

Secretary Tian said, "That's different. I'm still a vice-ministerial level official. How can the prestige be the same?"

Old Chen said, "Alright, let's not flatter each other. I just got here a step ahead of you; you'd be here sooner or later anyway."
