It was the second day that Zhou Ming took Fang Ping and Zhou Tao back to the factory. After all, there was still a period of road from Linyang City to Nanhui County. The roads in this era were not easy to walk. Because there had just been heavy snow here in Linyang, I was worried that the road surface would freeze at night, and at the same time, I had to arrange for Linyang TV's crew to travel, so Zhou Ming had to stay in Linyang City first and wait for one night.

As the car drove into the 760 Factory, Zhou Tao, who was sitting in the car, looked at the tall factory gate and said in surprise: "Wow! Is this eight-treasure porridge that was popular all over the country on CCTV Spring Festival Gala? Is it produced here?"

"It's almost the same," Zhou Ming, who was driving in front, replied to her, "but strictly speaking, Babao Porridge is just a production workshop in the factory. This 760 Factory is actually a metal factory, mainly engaged in mechanical processing."

"That's even more amazing!" Zhou Tao said excitedly, "It's simply impossible to make eight-treasure porridge in a machinery factory that has never done food processing, and it's so delicious and it's even more popular on CCTV Spring Festival Gala!"

Zhou Ming always felt that he had no life as a celebrity. He was praised by a girl like this. He had no idea what to do, so he could only say thank you to her in a embarrassed manner.

At this time, Zhou Tao suddenly said again: "Boss Zhou, I will sing a slander for you later. Can you sing a slander for the red face?"

Zhou Ming was stunned for a moment, not understanding what she meant. Zhou Ming wanted to ask, but seeing that Zhou Tao had turned his gaze out the window again, he shook his head and obeyed.

The car drove directly to the entrance of the factory administrative building. County Party Secretary Gu Ping and a group of county party committee officials were waiting here. When Zhou Ming parked the car and got out of the car, Gu Ping immediately stepped forward and greeted: "Secretary Zhao and two journalists who came from afar, you are happy new year. On behalf of all the cadres and masses of the Nanhui County Party Committee and County Government, I welcome your arrival."

In order to show respect for the two reporters, Mayor Chen also sent his secretary to accompany them.

Fang Ping and Zhou Tao shook hands with Gu Ping respectively and said to Gu Ping with a smile: "Happy New Year, Secretary Gu. I know that many things are not convenient during the Spring Festival, and there are still many things to bother Secretary Gu."

Zhou Tao's words surprised Zhou Ming. She said this generously and appropriately. Zhou Ming felt that even if she was standing in her position, she basically said that. The reason why she was surprised was that Zhou Tao had always given him a fanatical star chaser, but she subconsciously forgot that she was also known for her intellectual maturity in later generations.

A host who dominated the CCTV Spring Festival Gala for more than ten years, even though she is still young, she will not be a brainless star chaser. It seems that her brainless emotionality is just for herself.

Zhou Ming thought so in his heart.

"Reporter Zhou is polite. Our local governments must strongly support the interview tasks of CCTV reporters!" Gu Ping said.

There were greetings with each other. Su Han came to Zhou Ming. Looking at the resentment on Su Han’s pretty face made Zhou Ming feel a little overwhelmed. It was obvious that Su Han was jealous, but Zhou Tao chased him from Yanjing all the way to Linyang, and this behavior itself could not make Su Han not jealous.

At this time, Zhou Ming was also glad that he didn't bring Su Han with him yesterday, otherwise it might have been a collision with Mars on Earth.

At this time, Zhou Ming recalled that he and Zhou Tao were arranged to be in the city government guesthouse yesterday. Fang Ping and Zhou Tao came to their room to chat in the evening. Especially Zhou Tao didn't know whether it was intentional or why, but he came over in pajamas. If Su Han saw it in the room, the scene would be too terrifying and unimaginable.

However, during the chat last night, Zhou Ming also learned about Zhou Tao's recent situation. Zhou Tao happily told Zhou Ming that she had been arranged to work at CCTV, and that this interview task was asked by herself.

This surprised Zhou Ming. Zhou Ming still knew the resume of his favorite female host. He remembered that Zhou Tao was assigned to work at Yanjing TV in his previous life, but she didn't expect that she had just joined CCTV now and asked for an interview in Linyang during the Spring Festival. Her actions really made Zhou Ming not know what to say.

Then, according to the county's arrangement, Zhou Ming took Fang Ping and Zhou Tao and a number of county party committee officials to the conference room for a meeting. Although Gu Ping had the highest official position here, because the mayor's secretary was here, Secretary Zhao was the first to speak. He talked about the policies of the municipal party committee and government and the restructuring policy of the 760 Factory. Then Gu Ping also spoke and talked about the county's historical evaluation of the 760 Factory.

But what no one expected was that when it was Zhou Tao's turn to speak at the meeting, she suddenly asked a question that made all officials lose their voices collectively. Zhou Tao asked: "Director Zhao, Secretary Gu, after hearing what you said just now, I think the restructuring of at least 760 Factory is successful. You also support the Babao Porridge industry very much. So I wonder what the local sales of Babao Porridge in Linyang?"

This problem made all officials stunned. Before the link between GDP and political achievements, local officials, especially inland officials, only care about the policies of superiors and would not care about the development of local enterprises. Otherwise, there would be no such thing as Xiling Cannery Factory not paying wages for several consecutive years and employees would have to work in the production team. As for Linyang Babao Porridge, they are afraid they have never heard of it before, let alone sales.

Secretary Zhao reacted quickly. He said: "Factory 760 is a pilot enterprise for our Linyang reform and development. Babao porridge is also a star product in the factory. It goes without saying that the local sales in Linyang are of course. However, because of the concerns during the Spring Festival, there are many government agencies. The specific data is more accurate. Let the Boss Zhou of Factory 760 talk about it."

With Secretary Zhao taking the lead, County Party Secretary Gu Ping also echoed: "That's it. The government agencies are on holiday now and there is no way to give detailed data."

Obviously, they said this to throw all the problems to Zhou Ming, but before Zhou Ming could speak, Zhou Tao spoke again: "Is that true? But why is the news I got not like this? According to the news I got, the local sales work of Linyang Babao Porridge in Linyang is very difficult, and most local supply and marketing cooperatives are reluctant to accept Babao Porridge. Why is this?"

"It's impossible. There is absolutely no such thing. This must be a rumor. Our county party committee supports the development of such a company!" Gu Ping immediately denied.

However, Zhou Tao then threw out another point they could not imagine: "Last night, reporter Fang and I went out to the street shop to take a look, but we did not find any sales of Babao porridge. Even the store sales staff didn't know that there were Babao porridge. How could Secretary Gu explain this? If we really follow Secretary Gu's statement, the sales of Babao porridge in Yanjing are very popular, Linyang should also be very popular, but the facts do not seem to be like this. What should Secretary Gu say? Or is it that Nanhui County has not given the company the support it deserves?"

As a CCTV announcer, Zhou Tao's voice sounds very nice, but Gu Ping had no time to appreciate Zhou Tao's beautiful voice at this time, because Zhou Tao's questions one by one made him not know how to answer them.

Zhou Ming glanced at Zhou Tao, and Zhou Ming could feel the tremendous pressure her problems brought to Gu Ping.

It is not difficult to imagine that if a nationally renowned product is truly confirmed to be unpopular in the county and this news is exposed on CCTV, Gu Ping's leadership team and even the entire Linyang will become a laughing stock in the officialdom. Once the province is furious and the board is knocked down, it will be an earthquake in the officialdom, and anyone may be in trouble.

It seems that Zhou Ming has done a lot of preparations. She also knows that many places in the mainland still ignore local enterprises and even suppress emerging enterprises. So after she arrived in Linyang, she took advantage of the evening to go shopping with Fang Ping and secretly checked the sales of Babao Porridge. Today, she brought this problem to Secretary Zhao and Gu Ping in person.

Zhou Tao did not plan to stop. She continued to pursue and asked relentlessly: "Secretary Gu, now reform and opening up, economic development is the main theme. Why do people ignore such an excellent enterprise from the city to the county in Linyang? If Linyang Babao Porridge did not open up the Yanjing Binhai market, would such an excellent enterprise fail? How could this happen? Is this a negligence in the work of the government agency? Or is there another reason? If it is another reason, then what is the reason?"

This series of questions made Secretary Zhao and Gu Ping buzzed and their whole heads became big. They kept using their eyes to ask Zhou Ming for help, and Zhou Ming could see the cold sweat on their foreheads.

I’m afraid these bureaucrats never dreamed that this CCTV reporter would be so difficult? But it’s no wonder, because according to the general procedure, no matter how proud CCTV reporters are, at least they won’t make things difficult. But Zhou Tao is different. She is a fan of Zhou Ming. She can’t stand Zhou Ming’s content, and no one can hold on to it. I’m afraid this is one of the reasons why Zhou Tao took the initiative to accept this interview task.

Zhou Ming could not guess the woman's thoughts, but Secretary Zhao and Gu Ping could not ignore Zhou Ming. After all, county officials were not as good as the current one. His own factory and his parents were in Linyang. Zhou Tao could scold them and pat them for leaving, but he couldn't. Many things were hindering here. I'm afraid this was what Zhou Tao said last time in the car that he wanted to blush himself.

Thinking of this, Zhou Ming shook his head in his heart: This Zhou Tao, even if you admire him, don’t do things so thoughtfully.

If there are fans like this, what else can you ask for?

Zhou Ming thought in his heart and said, "Reporter Zhou, in fact, this cannot be blamed on the leaders here. It is the strategy set by our Babao Porridge Products at the beginning of its establishment. First, we will take over big cities. After all, whether it is consumption concepts or consumption capacity in big cities, they are not comparable to small places. As for Linyang locals, they are all considered later. In addition, I did not follow the government's plan before producing Babao Porridge, so I also have to bear certain responsibilities."

After hearing Zhou Ming say this, Zhou Tao said embarrassedly: "So that's the case, okay."
