Chapter 182: Entering Yanjing for the first time
The final result was very disappointing to Zhang Li and Li Hu. They deliberately waited on the platform and didn't see Zhou Ming and Su Han coming when they were about to drive. Of course, they couldn't come because they really bought sleeper tickets. Why do they have to go to the hard seat if they have sleepers? But Zhang Li and Li Hu didn't know about this situation.
"Dahu, Xiaohan and the others won't really buy sleeper tickets, right?" Zhang Li asked Li Hu incredibly.
"Impossible. I can't buy sleeper tickets even if I ask for so many relationships. How can they buy them? And sleeper tickets are more than twice as expensive as ordinary train tickets. Will they be willing to buy them?" Li Hu said disdainfully, "I don't know about the place of 760 Factory. A county's gold factory sounds good, but in fact it's already common for them to not be able to pay wages there. Not long ago, the city canceled their qualifications to designate a production company, which was even more ruined."
Li Hu finally concluded: "So I think they are just trying to save face. When we don't pay attention to which carriage we go into, I have seen many such country bumpkins, so let's not worry about them."
"Okay, but Xiao Han is really good. She has seats for her to take turns not to sit. She deserves to suffer when she stands in other cars."
Zhang Li said this and then got on the train with Li Hu.
Compared to their side, Zhou Ming and Su Han were very obsessed with him, but Zhou Ming and Su Han were much more unfair to him. They just found their own bed and put their luggage in the car, Zhou Ming asked Su Han: "Are you very familiar with that Zhang Li?"
Su Han shook his head and replied, "It's just an elementary school classmate. I haven't contacted her for more than ten years. If she hadn't said hello to me today, I wouldn't have recognized her."
"Your words will make others sad, but others recognize you at a glance in the waiting room." Zhou Ming smiled.
Su Han curled his lips and said playfully: "That's worth it. Who told her to say we were working in Yanjing?"
Zhou Ming could only smile at Su Han's little care. As for Zhang Li's side, he didn't care. Even if he didn't ask Su Han, he could tell from their attitude of meeting just now that Su Han did not have contact with Zhang Li. Today was just an accident, just forget it after it was over.
Zhou Ming thought so at this time, but he didn't expect that although they met Zhang Li today was just an accident, they went to Yanjing together and met again.
...
After more than 30 hours of long distance bump, the train Zhou Ming and his friends finally arrived at Yanjing Station. Zhou Ming and Su Han got off with their luggage and soon saw Du Peng who came to pick up the station. Du Peng came up and gave Zhou Ming a bear hug.
Zhou Ming threw his luggage directly to him and first introduced Su Han. Du Peng first said hello to Su Han, and then shook his eyes at Zhou Ming. Of course, Zhou Ming understood what this third generation of red meant, and explained to him formally: "Xiaohan and I have a very pure comradeship."
"I understand, you are definitely the purest comradeship!" Du Peng said, but his face was simply not believed. Su Han Bingxue was smart and understood what Du Peng meant, and his pretty face turned red with shame.
Seeing this, Zhou Ming had to change the topic and said, "But Mr. Du, it's really not easy for me to come to the capital."
Du Peng was puzzled by this and did not understand why Zhou Ming felt this way. Zhou Ming explained to him that they had waited at an unknown small station for almost three hours before driving into Yanjing Station again.
After hearing this, Du Peng laughed and said, "This is called "It's hard to enter Beijing than climbing to the sky! There's no way, who made Yanjing the imperial capital? Trains from all over the country are driving here, so they must line up, otherwise there will be no place to stop when they come in all at once!"
Zhou Ming certainly understood that Yanjing West Station had not been built at this time, and almost all the trains entering Beijing were pressed at Yanjing Station, so he would definitely be too busy. However, as a person who has returned from birth, he really couldn't compliment the trains of this era. Not only was the slow speed and the conditions on the trains, but now he had to wait for so long to enter the station, so he felt really uncomfortable.
"So I think Mr. Du, you, the third generation of red, should make a suggestion to your grandfather. For the convenience of our people's travel, the speedup of the train must be put on the agenda as soon as possible." Zhou Ming said.
Du Peng said: "Zhou Ming, don't say that my old man and Mr. Yang have actually considered this aspect, but because the internal stability is not very stable, some measures are still difficult to implement."
The answer given by Du Peng made Zhou Ming not expect, because Zhou Ming was just talking casually. In Zhou Ming's memory, the speed-up of the train will be ten years later, but he didn't expect that the central government has really considered this matter now. But it's right to think about it. The central leaders are not blind, so how could they not see some things? It's just that some things are stranded due to various reasons.
"Forget it, let him follow the normal trajectory for some things. I'm not a good thing," said Zhou Ming.
Then Zhou Ming and Su Han followed Du Peng out of the station to the parking lot. Du Peng drove out a red flag car. Zhou Ming joked, "Du Peng, you kid, won't you really drive your old man's car out, right?"
"I think so, but I guess you will only see me in the military hospital tomorrow." Du Peng said, "This car is another car in my house."
Although Du Peng said it was light, Zhou Ming knew that the car should not be simple either, because Zhou Ming saw several documents through the glass, which should be passed through some passports to important institutions such as Zhongnanhai. Those places are very mysterious and almost impossible to enter for ordinary people, but for them, that is just the place where their parents work.
In addition, these documents are also an identity mark. As a red descendant, they always have some privileges. With these documents, as long as they do not commit any major issues, the public security and traffic police will know what to do without asking their superiors.
This is also a hidden rule. After all, if these powerful people make trouble every time they make trouble, their parents really don’t have that much effort to deal with these broken things.
After getting on the bus, Du Peng sent them directly to Yanjing Hotel, which is a hotel with a very long history. In fact, this hotel was even twice as old as the founding of New China.
Standing at the door of Yanjing Hotel, Su Han looked up at the tall building in front of him and couldn't help but sigh: "Wow! What a grand hotel, was this hotel like this more than 80 years ago?"
"Of course it's impossible. In fact, the Yanjing Hotel was just a tavern run by two foreigners at the beginning." Zhou Ming said.
Du Peng also nodded and said, "It's almost the same, but after a lot of expansion and renovation, it has reached its current scale. In order to meet the needs of reform, opening up and modernization, Yanjing Hotel only went through an internal rest last year, and now it is basically on the same level as Nanhu Hotel in Nanjiang."
"There is nothing to say. As our imperial capital, Yanjing would be embarrassing if there was no hotel of this level!" Zhou Ming said, "I remember that seven years ago, the richest Chinese in the world came to Yanjing. At that time, the entire huge imperial capital could not find a good hotel to arrange it. How embarrassing."
"I didn't expect you to know this?" Du Peng was a little surprised.
"Of course, don't we like to discuss national affairs when we are fine?" Zhou Ming laughed.
However, Su Han said: "Then today, Zhou Ming, you also stayed in the Yanjing Hotel. Doesn't that mean that Zhou Ming, you will become the richest Chinese in the world in the future?"
"I think Zhou Ming has this potential!" Du Peng said.
Zhou Ming and Du Peng walked into Yanjing Hotel with a giggle. Du Peng took the key from the front desk to Zhou Ming and Su Han: "Your room has been opened long ago. This is your room key. Your room is next door."
It is impossible not to say that although Du Peng doesn't have a positive appearance, this matter is still done well. He can guess the ambiguous relationship between Zhou Ming and Su Han, but he still opened two rooms. After all, if he guessed wrongly or the relationship has not reached this point, or the girl is too thin-skinned, it would be embarrassing to live in one room. Compared to this, it would be better to open one more room. How to distribute it is not his business. Anyway, one more room will not cost a few more money.
This matter is not a big deal, but it can also be seen that Du Peng is still very smart.
Du Peng accompanied Zhou Ming and the others upstairs, came to the room, and asked Zhou Ming how he felt. Zhou Ming smiled and said, "This is the best hotel in Yanjing now. If I am not satisfied, it would be great."
Du Peng spread his hands: "That's hard to say, you guy is very difficult to serve. Then if there is no problem with the room, Zhou Ming, you can rest first, and I'll come to you to treat you to dinner in the evening."
Zhou Ming nodded and said yes, then asked, "Then have you made an appointment with CCTV leader?"
"Don't worry, I can forget anything else, I dare not forget about you, Zhou Ming." Du Peng said, "I helped you meet with a deputy director of CCTV. Is it enough, right?"
Zhou Ming nodded seriously and said, "The deputy director is very good, but it would be even better if he could make an appointment with the director."
Du Peng cursed angrily: "Damn! Zhou Ming, you still have the greedy face of a capitalist. It's good to have this deputy director. This deputy director has a strong say in Taiwan. He can basically make decisions about what you want to talk about. The director is really not that easy to make appointments."
Of course, Zhou Ming also understood that he was just saying this on purpose. After all, the Master is the top leader! However, the situation at CCTV is different. The Master is a provincial leader and the Deputy Master is a department-level leader. Although he is just a chief and deputy, he is a big obstacle in terms of level.
For the powerful and powerful children like Du Peng, general department-level cadres need to give them face, but when they reach the provincial level, they can't play anymore.
Du Peng then left the room, Zhou Ming took his luggage to the next room, took a hot shower, and fell asleep in a short while. At this time, Zhou Ming did not expect that there would be an unexpected episode for him at the dinner with the deputy director tomorrow.
