Chapter 297 Scholars and officials

When he entered the seat, Yan Zhidao was naturally given the position of chief.

After everyone sat down, Yan Zhidao picked up the wine glass in front of him, smiled heartily, and said, "Today's meal was invited by Xiao Zeng. Then I will borrow the flowers to offer Buddha for this first glass of wine. I will first pay my respects to Xiao Zeng, thank Xiao Zeng for his kind hospitality and his strong support and assistance to our work in Longshan City."

Before Zeng Yi could be polite, Yan Zhidao's wine glass was brought to him, "Xiao Zeng, thank you for your hard work, this glass is a must-drink!"

"The old leader is here in Rongcheng. I, my former subordinate, have just finished his friendship with the landlords. It's not reasonable!" Zeng Yi quickly picked up the cup, "I must drink Mayor Yan's wine, but I really can't bear it if I thank you!"

Gu Xiankun also raised his cup to resolve it for Zeng Yi, and said, "It seems that I can't eat and drink for nothing! Come on, Zeng Yi, thank you for the meal you invited!"

After drinking this first glass of wine, the atmosphere at the table became more casual. Everyone moved their chopsticks and took the dishes they wanted to eat.

Yan Zhidao's toast to this glass of wine today is not a hypocritical act, but out of sincerity. If Zeng Yi had not helped this airport project, it would definitely not be able to be won. Yan Zhidao's first major event after he became executive vice mayor was to strive to settle in Longshan at the airport. If this matter cannot be done, it will definitely have a great impact on his future development, at least it is a lack of ability.

Fighting for the airport to settle down is a great thing for Longshan City. The leaders of Longshan City understand it in their hearts, but they all support it verbally. Only Yan Zhidao is truly willing to do this steadily, because everyone understands that this is not a matter of talking to the mouth, and the process is not ordinary complicated.

After sharing a bottle of wine, Yan Zhidao suggested to breathe a sigh of relief. This is not to drink with the bosses of the capital's ministries and commissions, so there is no need to work hard.

Zeng Yi poured a cup of tea for Yan Zhidao and said, "I'm back in Beijing this time, the project matters should be settled!"

Yan Zhidao's index finger bent slightly, he buckled the table twice, nodded and smiled, "I'm settled. After I go back, I'll go to the next stage."

"Mayor Yan did something great for Longshan this time that he has made great contributions!" Zeng Yi smiled.

Yan Zhidao said seriously: "'In his position, plan his politics', I am just doing my own responsibility for the development of Longshan, and I dare not be greedy for merit. Thanks to your help, the project can be won so smoothly. Xiao Zeng, I won't say anything thanks. If there are any difficulties in the future project progress, I will ask you for more help."

Zeng Yi waved his hand and said, "I may be able to help you with other things, but I am an amateur in building the airport and I can't help you at all." As he said, Zeng Yi looked at Gu Xiankun and said, "But Gu is an expert in construction. Today I invite him here to see if there is anything and can help Mayor Yan."

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say!" Yan Zhidao nodded, then looked at Gu Xiankun, "Mr. Gu, then I'll bother you."

Gu Xiankun stood up, picked up a glass of wine, and smiled and said, "Mayor Yan's words have ruined me. I want to bother you! I respect Mayor Yan for this cup!"

The two of them tacitly raised their glasses to drink together, then smiled and said, "Eat food, eat food!"

Zeng Yi's words are reversed. What kind of benefits can Gu Xiankun help Yan Zhidao? It's nothing more than contracting the airport project. This should be Yan Zhidao's helping Gu Xiankun, but when it comes to the table, it has to be said in another way. This is the subtlety of the officialdom.

Yan Zhidao understood it in his heart, but agreed very happily. First, Zeng Yi spoke, and he had to help him. Second, he knew the reputation of Mingshi Group. He was definitely the top three qualifications in the province and had first-class management, which was also what Yan Zhidao valued.

This project was taken back by Yan Zhidao, and most of the construction matters must be taken care of by Yan Zhidao. Of course, he hopes to complete the project smoothly, maintain quality on time, and make a brilliant mark on his political achievements. Under the same conditions, Yan Zhidao is more willing to hand over the project to enterprises with better qualifications and reputations, so that he can save a lot of worry for himself.

Zeng Yi pointed out the words and stopped mentioning this matter. Today he just gave Gu Xiankun a thread. As for success or failure, it was not something he could guarantee. He turned to Yan Zhidao and asked: "Mayor Yan, I have a question. I want to ask you."

Yan Zhidao turned halfway and smiled and said, "What do you say!"

Zeng Yi said: "I have also read some information before, saying that airports can promote local economic development, but these are all superficial things. I want to hear your opinions. You are an expert in economics and your understanding will definitely be deeper!"

Yan Zhidao was very happy. He liked others to call him an expert, especially those in the system called him an expert. He said now: "Xiao Zeng, you have raised this question well! You will definitely be in charge of the government in the future. There are some things that you must understand."

"I wish to listen to Mayor Yan's high opinion!" Zeng Yi said.

"It's not a high opinion, it's just my understanding. Since you asked, I'll take it out and talk, hoping to play a role in throwing bricks and attracting jade!" Yan Zhidao said this, but deliberately kept it a secret. He took out a cigarette calmly, took a sip and said, "Do you know how many airports there are currently in the country, and how many of them can bear their own profits and losses?"

Zeng Yi had really read this information and said now: "More than 100 large and small, 80% of them are in a loss."

Yan Zhidao nodded and said, "After the airport in Longshan is built, it will definitely face losses. Do you know why I still have to fight for this project so persistently?"

Gu Xiankun answered at this time: "Although the airport is in a loss, the economic benefits it brings to Longshan can completely make up for the losses in this regard."

Yan Zhidao shook his hand and said, "This is just the surface. No one can tell how much economic benefits it can bring!"

Gu Xiankun smiled and said, "Then I want to ask Mayor Yan too!"

Yan Zhidao was not like a mayor at this time, but rather an old professor showing off his knowledge in a university classroom. He said: "The main reason for me to fight for the airport is to prevent Longshan from being marginalized in the future competition between cities!"

This sentence is a bit difficult to understand, but Yan Zhidao did not keep it a secret this time, but explained: "We are in the process of industrialization now. Industrialization is actually urbanization. In the future, there will be more and more people in cities and cities, and larger cities will become larger and larger. At the same time, some rural areas, counties, including some small cities, will decline or even disappear. My statement is not possible, but very likely, which can be derived from the evolutionary process of all developed countries. The main form of transportation in the future will be a link between points and points, not a network. Longshan City is surrounded by mountains, the terrain is limited, and there is no radiation circle of any big city around to accommodate it. Airlines is the only way of transportation to overcome this unfavorable factor. If there is an airport, Longshan will not be marginalized in the future."

Zeng Yi nodded slightly. Yan Zhidao's words made him very rewarding. This statement has deviated from the economic perspective and is thinking about problems from the perspective of urban development.

"And the airport's losses are only temporary!" Yan Zhidao explained Zeng Yi's problem, turned his head and explained Gu Xiankun's problem, and said: "At present, our country mainly uses land transportation. In addition to other reasons, there is another very important reason. We do not have commercial aircraft manufacturing capabilities, which largely determines that we cannot vigorously develop air transport. But for a big country like us, it is impossible for us to never have commercial aircraft."

Gu Xiankun smiled, and Yan Zhidao understood as soon as he spoke, that this is the same as doing business. If all the planes are imported, then the money you earned hard will be basically given to outsiders in the end.

"Mayor Yan's words have benefited me a lot!" Gu Xiankun raised his glass again, "Thank you, Mayor Yan, for teaching me this class."

Zeng Yi also raised his glass. He thought it was interesting to speak to Yan Zhidao. When domestic officials gathered at the table, they mostly talked about power and tricks, while Yan Zhidao was an exception. He allowed Zeng Yi to see the style of another special group in the officialdom, that is, scholar-type officials, but he didn't know what Yan Zhidao had in politics and what kind of ideas and ambitions he had.

Halfway through the banquet, Tang Haoran came over. The private room that Zeng Yi ordered at Jiefang Hotel today was through Tang Haoran. Tang Haoran thought Zeng Yi was going to entertain some distinguished guests, so after finishing his work, he came over to take a look.

Yan Zhidao was surprised again. Because of his special identity, even the provincial party committee members who ranked lower in the provincial party committee should affectionately call him "Brother Tang" when they see Tang Haoran, let alone other people. Looking at the entire Nanjiang Province, there are not many people who can stand up in front of Tang Haoran. Unexpectedly, Zeng Yi's network is really powerful.

"It's so lively here. I heard it from afar outside!" Tang Haoran walked in and smiled, "I heard that Director Zeng, who is rich and powerful, is here, so I came here. I haven't eaten dinner yet. Don't mind having a pair of chopsticks for me!"

Zeng Yi quickly asked Tang Haoran to sit down, gave him an introduction, and asked the waiter to add a few more dishes.

"Mayor Yan, I have learned from the province that you Longshan City has taken the airport to settle down." Tang Haoran sat down and raised his cup, "Mayor Yan has worked hard and made great contributions. I met today, and I must respect you one!

If it were before, Yan Zhidao would definitely be flattered. This person who took the initiative to drink with him was the secretary of the provincial party committee. However, after seeing him in the capital, Yan Zhidao was somewhat adapted and smiled and said, "I am just running errands. The successful completion of this project is mainly because the city's firm attitude and the strong support from the province."

Tang Haoran drank a few glasses of wine with everyone. Before his stomach was filled, he answered a phone call and hurriedly said goodbye. He, the provincial party secretary, had a rare time to have leisure throughout the year.

The three of them drank for a while, and when they saw that the time was about the same, Yan Zhidao proposed to leave the table.

Zeng Yi sent Yan Zhidao into the car and said, "Mayor Yan, if there is a comrade stationed in the provincial office to pick you up, I won't send you there. If you have the chance to go to Longshan, I will chat with you again."

Yan Zhidao got into the car, waved his hand and smiled, "I won't give it to you anymore, I won't give it to you anymore, go back and have a breakfast break. I have to work tomorrow!"

After Yan Zhidao left, Zeng Yi and Gu Xiankun also took a bus to leave the Liberation Hotel.

"The one who was with Zeng Yi just now was Yan Zhidao, the deputy mayor of Longshan City?" Chang Junlong walked out of the director's building and looked at the taillights of Zeng Yi's car in the distance. He said, "The other one seems to be Gu Xiankun of Mingshi Group!"

Sun Yi walked out slowly and listened to Chang Junlong's words. Although his expression was normal, he was not the case in his heart. Zeng Yi and Yan Zhidao were mixed together, and with Gu Xiankun, he knew at a glance that there would be no good things in it.

Chang Junlong said twice, "Mr. Sun, I think it's a bit difficult to win the project in Longshan!"

Sun Yi snorted coldly, "It's just Gu Xiankun, what kind of waves can he make!"

Chang Junlong shook his head and said, "You still can't be underestimated. Gu Xiankun is a very regular person, but Zeng Yi is not honest!"

Sun Yi turned around and said, "What's going on? After the grand young master of the Chang family plucked his hair, he even lost his courage!"

Chang Junlong's face turned dark at that time. He gritted his teeth and walked towards his car. He was almost angry. It's a horse. Since you are looking for death, I won't stop you. When you get bad, you will know how difficult it is to Zeng Yi.

Sun Yi watched Chang Junlong leave and laughed disdainfully, thinking to himself that when you kid laughed at me as your second brother, he didn't think that he would be today, a shabby pig!

Sun Yi followed behind and walked towards the parking lot. He was not afraid of Gu Xiankun. The Gu family was in Nanjiang Province, which was already a thing of the past. He was determined to take down this airport project in Longshan.

Although the Xingxing Lake project looks good, it is difficult to see benefits in a short period of time. Once the machine moves there, you have to spend money in it, otherwise the project will have to stop. However, the airport project in Longshan is different. It is the government's livelihood project. Once launched, it will not stagnate. The total investment scale is as high as 1.6 billion. As long as you can get construction projects, it will be at least 300 million to 400 million.

Sun Yi has already inquired about the funds for this project. The State Administration of Civil Aviation will bear half of the construction costs. This fund will be allocated soon, and Nanyun County will be responsible for one-third of the funds. If this calculation is done, Longshan City will not pay a penny, and there will be no shortage of funds for this project within at least two years. It is very safe.

It is precisely because of these situations that Sun Yi decided to take action. As long as the project is taken down, whether it is done by himself or subcontracted, it will be very rich, and the airport will never dare to owe his own project payment.

However, Sun Yi did not plan to do this project by himself. He was not the material. As soon as the contract rights were obtained, he would be planning to subcontract it to the next company, and he was only responsible for getting the cash.

Sun Yi is short of money recently. He owed a lot of debts to film movies last year. Currently, the project of Xingxing Lake is only available. When Sun Yi arrived in Nanjiang, he was almost empty-handed. He acquired Feilong Construction and participated in the Xingxing Lake project, all relying on the golden signboard of the governor's son.

Of course, Sun Yi had other thoughts. Although he had never made any money when he made a movie, he would still plan to make a few more movies. If he didn't make a famous movie, he would be able to earn back his face.

Zeng Yi was looking at the documents in the office. He felt someone shaking outside the window twice, and said, "Come in!"

Long Meixin pushed the door and wondered: "It's really a dog's nose! You already know before I knocked on the door!"

"I have said it many times, this is called political smell!" Zeng Yi snorted and said, "Forget it, you won't understand anyway!"

"I think it's just smelling the fragrance and stealing the jade!" Long Meixin curled her lips, and said very disdainful, "If you really had a sense of political smell, you would have held my girl's legs long ago!" As he said that, Long Meixin threw a file bag on Zeng Yi's desk, and then sat in the reception sofa very casually.

Zeng Yi picked up the file bag and asked, "What is this?"

"Investment plan! Director Zeng has read it!" Long Meixin said, leaning on the sofa, looking a little bored.

Zeng Yi frowned slightly and said, "It seems you are quite anxious, let me see!" As he said that, Zeng Yi opened the file bag and took out a few pages of the file from it.

After reading only one title, Zeng Yi laughed, couldn't help but shake his head, and then continued to look down.

Long Meixin observed Zeng Yi's expression change, and a knowing smile appeared on her face. She was very satisfied with her investment plan and could definitely overshadow Cui Enxi.

Zeng Yi quickly finished reading the pages of the files and said, "Are you going to do this?"

"Why do you always have a very skeptical attitude towards this girl?" Long Meixin asked, "Have I cheated on your money before?"

"I apologize, I apologize!" Zeng Yi stood up with a smile and said, "This project will definitely bring hope to many people like the General Tea you invested in, but it will not have a penny of profit and return."

"I didn't plan to get any reward!" Long Meixin spread her hands and felt helpless. "You little official who is as big as a sesame seed, yelling all day long to benefit the masses. How can I fall behind you!"

Zeng Yi smiled and said, "Don't underestimate yourself. In fact, your essence is still good. Although my level is very high, if you work hard, you still have hope of catching up!"

Long Meixin was amused again and said, "To say something complimenting me, can you lose a piece of meat!"

"Commentary makes people mediocre, I don't want to harm you!" Zeng Yi laughed. He found that the princess who used to be racing on the highway actually had the cutest side. This plan gave him a new understanding of Long Meixin.

Long Meixin is preparing to set up a charity fund to fund patients who are seriously ill and cannot afford medical expenses, and is targeted to cooperate with Nanyun Medical College.

Whether it is the David family or the Pinghai Group, their donation to build Nanyun Medical College is utilitarian, while Long Meixin's donation does not pursue any return. She targeted the charity fund to Nanyun Medical College. On the surface, it seems that it is to expand the influence of Nanyun Medical College, but in fact it is to find a way for Zeng Yi and share the burden for Zeng Yi.

If you think about Zeng Yi, Zeng Yi will naturally feel your feelings.

This is exactly what Long Meixin is so clever. I said that if I want to invest, I will definitely invest, but the purpose of my visit to Nanjiang must also achieve it.

"I will ask someone to handle the specific procedures as soon as possible, and a specific charter will be produced at that time!" Long Meixin said, "What instructions do Director Zeng have?"

Zeng Yi looked at his watch and smiled and said, "It's time for dinner. I'll treat you today. Miss Long, please give me a look!"

"If you don't go, there will be no good banquet!" Long Meixin refused.

Zeng Yi said, "Then this way, you treat me and I will go to the banquet. I am never afraid of the Hongmen Banquet!"
Chapter completed!
