In official circles, we usually avoid talking about old leaders because of the comparison between old and new leaders. If you say that the old leader is good, the new leader will have a grudge. You may even feel that you have been thinking about the old leader and do you have a problem with me?
But if you say that the old leader is not good, the new leader may be a little happy at first, but then he will think, when one day I become the old leader, this guy will probably say the same thing about me. This guy has a problem with his character.
Zhang Yuanqing pondered for a moment and then said: "Like Secretary Jin, you are both serious and courageous leaders..."
"No need to flatter, just tell me how you feel." Zhou Qiangbin interrupted Zhang Yuanqing's attempt to flatter him to get through.
Zhang Yuanqing bit the bullet and changed the direction: "I have been with Secretary Jin for nearly a year. He is upright and honest, and he is very down-to-earth. I have known you for a short time, and I think you are respectable and amiable."
This wording is quite particular. Zhou Qiangbin smiled lightly: "I'm afraid it's not respectable and amiable, but there is still a gap and fear."
A big leader is a big leader, and one sentence touched Zhang Yuanqing's heart.
Zhang Yuanqing could only admit: "You are so serious, I am really afraid of you in my heart."
"Afraid of me? When you mocked Guan Shuifeng that day, I glanced at you, and then you dared to contradict me. I didn't feel how scared you were."
Zhou Qiangbin mentioned what happened the night before yesterday.
Zhang Yuanqing smiled bitterly, the big boss was indeed difficult to serve, and the key was to hold grudges. He was irritated by Zhou Qiangbin's eyes that day. He was scolded by Guan Shuifeng first and fought back last. Of course, he didn't feel that he was wrong.
But now that I think about it, I was indeed a little impulsive that day. The big leader has already come forward and reprimanded him. He cannot be unreasonable and unforgiving.
Thinking of this, Zhang Yuanqing lowered his head sincerely: "Mayor Zhou, I was wrong that day. I am young and sometimes I am irritable when it comes to dealing with problems. You taught me that day that you should not be arrogant if you are proud. I will think about it when I go home. , which makes sense.”
"Oh, Lao Jin didn't teach you this?" Zhou Qiangbin brought the topic to the old leader again.
Faintly still asking him about the difference between himself and Lao Jin.
Zhang Yuanqing lost his temper, so he also used a set of "Seven Injury Boxing" and answered honestly: "I taught him, but when my temper gets worse, I can't help it."
"Haha!" Zhou Qiangbin chuckled, not knowing what it meant.
Zhang Yuanqing didn't have much confidence, and he didn't know whether his answer would be satisfactory to the big leader.
Qiao Qiang, who was driving, glanced at him while driving. Probably because he felt that Zhang Yuanqing was different from others and was a little curious.
Then Zhou Qiangbin didn't speak, and Zhang Yuanqing didn't dare to speak either.
The car quickly arrived at Haiyun Group, and Pei Lu was already waiting outside the door. His company also hung a welcome banner.
However, he did not put Zhou Qiangbin's name on it, and he still understood this taboo. It was just the first time we met, so it was natural that there were so many people there, so it made it quite lively.
"Welcome Mayor Zhou to investigate." Pei Lu bent down and ran over to open the door.
After Zhou Qiangbin came out, he shook hands with him: "Boss Pei, you are the bread and butter of our Jiangbei City, so don't be so polite. I will come to disturb you often in the future."
"Welcome," Pei Lu said with a smile.
Only then did he see Zhang Yuanqing getting out of the car.
Zhang Yuanqing was sitting in the passenger seat. He was supposed to get out of the car first and open the door for Zhou Qiangbin. When he saw Pei Lu coming, he couldn't seem too eager.
After all, the company's reporters were taking pictures on the side, and he had to wait until the photo of the two shaking hands was taken before getting out of the car, otherwise he would block the leader's lens.
Pei Lu was stunned when he saw Zhang Yuanqing. He probably didn't expect that he could follow Zhou Qiangbin out.
Zhou Qiangbin said: "This is my secretary Zhang Yuanqing. Mr. Pei should be familiar with him."
This is the first time Zhou Qiangbin has introduced Zhang Yuanqing as his secretary.
Zhang Yuanqing couldn't help but feel a little happy, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. Pei Lu's eyes flashed with surprise. Although he was not in the officialdom, he understood the rules of the officialdom.
This kid is a kind and righteous person, but he just followed Lao Jin's path until he got into trouble. Supposedly, politically, this is the end. Unexpectedly, in a twists and turns, he followed another big boss.
This life experience is really hard to fathom.
"Secretary Zhang and I are indeed old acquaintances. I caused him trouble before. Secretary Zhang, I apologize to you in person." Pei Lu shook hands with Zhang Yuanqing again.
"Mr. Pei is joking." The two of them looked at each other and smiled, feeling a little more cordial because of their relationship with Lao Jin.
Zhou Qiangbin waved his hand: "Okay, let's wait until noon to chat. We will go to your company first to understand the situation."
Pei Lu hurriedly brought Zhou Qiangbin into the company and introduced him to the relevant person in charge. Haiyun Group has a wide range of business types, covering food, drinking water, beverages, etc., and can be said to be well-known in the province.
While listening to the report, Zhou Qiangbin went around the factory and asked about safety, environmental protection and other issues. After understanding the situation on the spot, we went to the conference room for discussion.
The general manager of Haiyun Group is responsible for reporting on production and operations. To sum up, production and operations have improved steadily, and transformation and upgrading have been rapid and steady, which has promoted the company to achieve high-quality development.
Zhou Qiangbin was generally satisfied and asked Haiyun Group if there were any problems that required government coordination.
The general manager obviously had something to say, but when he saw the look in Pei Lu's eyes, he immediately smiled and said, "Thank you for the leadership's concern. Everything is normal now."
Seeing this, Zhou Qiangbin smiled and said: "We can talk about any problems. Now the whole province has proposed to create a good business environment. In the future, I plan to serve your companies accordingly. You can't leave me idle."
Zhang Yuanqing saw Zhou Qiangbin lowering his profile, and he admired this leader in his heart. He could feel that he really wanted to do something.
The shadow of Secretary Jin can be seen in him. Because Secretary Jin is also a good official who wants to do things.
As for Pei Lu, Zhang Yuanqing also saw something was wrong. He seemed to have something unspeakable, but he didn't want to say it.
Although Zhou Qiangbin lowered his attitude, Pei Lu still refused to speak.
Zhou Qiangbin tapped his fingers on the table and looked at Pei Lu and the general manager quietly. The general manager wittily reviewed the history of Haiyun Group, elaborated on the various help provided by the government, and expressed his deep gratitude.
This was all just talk, and Zhang Yuanqing could feel that Pei Lu must have encountered a big problem. He was even threatened, so he could only keep silent.
Zhou Qiangbin was unable to pry open the other party's mouth, and a trace of displeasure flashed in his eyes. However, even so, Pei Lu and others still kept silent about the problem. This made him helpless.
As the executive deputy mayor, if other companies don't dare to tell you when they encounter problems, it shows that the company does not trust you at all. And he just came to Jiangbei City and wanted to make some achievements.
Achieving high-quality economic development is an eternal issue. Unexpectedly, during my first corporate survey, I encountered such a situation.
If you don't succeed immediately, I'm afraid other entrepreneurs will follow suit and not dare to tell the truth to you.
Although Zhou Qiangbin felt uncomfortable, he couldn't show it.
When Zhang Yuanqing saw this, as a secretary, he could not remain indifferent.
Although this kind of occasion is not suitable for speaking, he still ignored the offending rules and took the initiative to speak: "Mr. Pei, do you have any concerns?"
A hint of gloom flashed in Pei Lu's eyes, but he still smiled and said: "Mayor Zhou came to investigate in person. If I have any concerns, there is indeed no problem."
Zhang Yuanqing held the report materials in his hand. He had just flipped through them. Combining his original understanding of the situation, he pointed out a problem to the point: "Since Mr. Pei said there is no problem, I remember that in the first half of this year, Haiyun Group planned to expand the food factory. Why? It’s not included in the plan for the second half of the year.”
Pei Lu's expression paused, and then he laughed dryly: "The market situation is not good now, so it is not the best time for expansion."
"The material states that since this year, Haiyun Group has built a food safety research station, but this research station is not in Jiangbei. I also read your transformation and upgrading plan. From a design point of view, the designs of these extended industries are not Based on this industrial park. Mr. Pei, from the perspective of the material supplier, are you preparing to fully withdraw from Jiangbei?"
Zhang Yuanqing seized the opportunity and asked a key question again.
This question made Pei Lu unable to answer, as long as he could no longer be fooled.
When Zhou Qiangbin heard this, his eyelids jumped. Completely withdraw from Jiangbei City? There was a flash of shock in his eyes. If such a large enterprise leaves Jiangbei, it will not only damage the local economy, but also cause a big blow to itself.
Thinking of this result, Zhou Qiangbin felt scared for a while. He previously thought it was a minor problem and that the other party simply didn't trust him.
Now it seems that the other party is preparing to completely cut off contact with Jiangbei City. If I didn't bring Zhang Yuanqing here today, I'm afraid I would have missed this important event.
Thinking of this, Zhou Qiangbin's eyes flashed with joy.
