Chapter Twenty: The New Year Has Ended

  The police officers who were ready to take action also stood there, staring foolishly at Secretary Hao.

  Liu Zhufeng saw Secretary Hao still intervening in the matter, and he was no longer polite. "You're going against the law, Secretary Hao! They had an incident last night, I won't pursue it anymore, but today my son was beaten like this, and these people don't follow the law, I disagree. You'd better not intervene, or else I'll report you to the higher-ups."

  Hao Secretary had to protect Chen Gong, but he couldn't bear the consequences himself. He would offend Liu Secretary and make things difficult for his future work. "Liu Secretary, please come over here, I need a word with you."

  Liu Zhufeng followed Secretary Hao out of the interrogation room, wondering what kind of tricks he was going to play.

  The two of them didn't go out for long and soon came back, but Liu Zhufeng's expression on his face had changed, no longer giving the feeling that he wanted to tear people apart.

  Liu Zhufeng bowed his head, not wanting to look at Chen Gong and the others again. "You few bastards get out of here." He had wanted to say a bit more to tell them not to be so arrogant in the future, but thinking about it, what qualifications did he have as the master's own son to make such comments?

  Liu Hong shouted loudly, "Dad, no way! Your son was beaten like this and you let them go? That kid is the son of Vice Mayor Zhou Xiong. I was beaten too, but he has to apologize to me before he can leave. The two women can also leave, but this guy must be taken in and taught a lesson. I won't let it drop!"

  There was also the son of Deputy Mayor Zhou, this group of second-generation ancestors should be well managed. Liu Zhufeng did not respond to his son's roar, but indicated that Chen Gong and others could leave. Chen Gong and others saw the situation and didn't say anything else. Since such a big leader is here, it's not bad for them not to make things difficult, so they quickly left.

  Hao Secretary, Zhang Zong and several others left the Mingcheng District Public Security Bureau. "Chen Gong, I'll go first. This matter is not easy for either side, but the main responsibility lies with that Liu Hong. You guys should also keep a low profile. If I come late, you won't be at a disadvantage. Zhou Liang, this temper of yours as a second-generation rich kid needs to change, or else I'll have to report to your father."

  Zhou Liang immediately expressed to Hao Secretary that he had decided to strengthen his ties with Chen Gong, start anew, and thoroughly reform himself. After thanking Hao Secretary and Zhang Zong, the several people bid farewell to the two of them.

  No matter how Liu Hong asked his father, he couldn't get an answer. He just told him not to provoke Chen Gong again, or else even he would be helpless.

  Chen Gong and four others arrived at a hotel to eat, due to Zhou Liang's joining, Chen Gong asked Zhou Liang not to provoke trouble again, first establish a real industry company, and then wait for his notice to develop in the southern province, soon there will be business to take.

  Actually, Zhou Liang had played and gone wild enough in the capital city. His old man always asked him to find something to do. This time he took a liking to Chen Gong's character and way of doing things, so he decided to willingly do some things for his brother and also make some small money for himself.

  "Chen Shao, how much is the registered capital?" Zhou Liang asked about the details.

  Chen Gong may not have much money in his hands, no more than 100,000 yuan. After the company's scale is reduced, it will be difficult to take on business. Zhou Liang knew that Chen Gong might not have much idle money, so he said that he also had tens of thousands of yuan that he could take out.

  Wei Shuqin said, you only have thirty or forty thousand, look at the car you drive, what kind of tricks are outside.

  Zhou Liang couldn't help it, these cars were all forced by his parents to buy, and the living expenses for each month were almost used up. Tens of thousands of yuan was still coaxed from his grandparents, saying it was for dating, but he didn't dare to spend it yet.

  Qin Huaiyu came out and was worried, "Chen Gong, can I buy a stock? One million."

  Chen Gong was naturally welcome, but this was still too little. What he had in mind was to get as many businesses as possible, such as the construction, decoration and instrument procurement of the seismic monitoring station that was about to start work, and save some money for himself.

  At this time, Director Zhang called to say that due to the unexpected event, there was something he didn't have a chance to tell Chen Gong. Xiao Xingya had already gifted 20% of the shares of "Jin Bi Hui Huang" to Chen Gong. He asked Chen Gong to go to the Administration for Industry and Commerce and the notary office as soon as possible to complete the formalities, and last year's profit of 12 million yuan that Chen Gong was entitled to would be transferred to his account after the formalities were completed.

  This way, won't I have money? Xiao Xingya was still quite good to herself, but who would be dissatisfied with having more money, so she invested it all in the real estate company.

  Chen Gong mysteriously told the three of them that the money was no longer a problem, and they should think of a company name. He also hinted to Wei Shuqin to come and take something, anything would do.

  Wei Shuqin thought of several more domineering names, and finally Chen Gong decided on Jing Shi Hongtu Industrial Co., Ltd., which was registered in Beijing. Later, it would have some preferential treatment and advantages locally.

  Chen Gong has already handed over all matters of the company to Zhou Liang, who is now in charge. These are just trivial things; it's time to care about Qin Huaiyu.

  Because Li Xiuming left halfway, Qin Huaiyu said that he can no longer follow Li Xiuming and will return to Fuhai alone. Later, Li Xiuming may not even have the face to find himself again. Without this strongest background, I don't know if Xiao Xingya will fire him.

  Chen Gong had already figured out that Qin Huaiyu was likely Li Xiuying's mistress after hearing her brief introduction, and through Li Xiuying's connections, Xiao Xingya agreed to arrange for her to work at the Haitian Group. The last time she was caught driving drunk, Qin Huaiyu probably also got Li Xiuying to step in and resolve the matter.

  Chen Gong assured Qin Huaiyu that Xiao Xingya would not fire her because of Li Xiuming, and she could continue to do what she originally did.

  Qin Huaiyu originally knew that Xiao Xingya attached great importance to Chen Gong's name, and the house she gave away was personally handled by her. It seems that Xiao Xingya must have known some background about Chen Gong. Such a formidable woman wouldn't easily show kindness to people. As long as I can get along with Chen Gong, my great revenge will be avenged.

  Although Chen Gong and Wei Shuqin invited Qin Huaiyu to return to Fuhai together two days later, Qin Huaiyu still refused. They were a couple, and she was alone, what would she do there, being a light bulb? She'd better give them some space.

  The New Year in the capital was spent very happily, Chen Gong took Wei Shuqin to many good places. Before leaving, Chen Guohao also called Chen Gong alone and chatted for a night. As long as Chen Gong can smoothly enter the county-level leadership position, he will be able to participate in next year's family meeting. However, before that, they won't provide any help. If you don't even have the ability to be a county-level leader, how can you sit stably on a high position?

  Chen Gong was puzzled by his brother Chen Huan, wondering why he could climb so fast without the support of their family. The troops were even darker than the local government. Chen Guohao also explained to Chen Gong about Chen Huan's situation. Chen Huan had previously been in a failed relationship that had almost reached the point of engagement, but was dumped by his girlfriend because of his low rank and for following high-ranking officials.

  Later, Chen Huan transformed his sorrow and indignation into motivation. In an accidental disaster relief work, he made outstanding contributions and officially became a deputy team leader. After that, his father Chen Guorong was transferred to the Jiangnan Provincial Party Committee Secretary, and with just a nod, he was promoted to a full team leader and joined the family meeting.

  Chen Gong listened and then spoke with emotion, it seems luck is still very important after all.

  Wei Shuqin followed Chen Gong to bid farewell to his family, and then set off on the road back to Fuhai. Wei Shuqin also felt that Chen Gong's family background was not suitable for her father to know about for the time being, so she decided to wait until they were ready to go to the civil affairs department to get married before telling her father.

  However, Wei Shuqin has been entangled in her mind for the past few days with a question: did Chen Gong and Qin Huaiyu really kiss on stage that day? Of course, Chen Gong is not a fool, so he said it was just a face-to-face collision, and that Qin Huaiyu had deliberately done so because of his difficult situation. Chen Gong deliberately described Qin Huaiyu's situation at the time as infinitely miserable, then changed the subject. Wei Shuqin also didn't dare to continue asking questions.

  It's time to go to work, Chen Gong has adjusted his mentality after a 7-day relaxing holiday and quickly got into the role. The current task is to build the earthquake monitoring station and purchase advanced equipment for installation.

  Deng Peng, the deputy director of Xin Qiao District Earthquake Bureau, was about to go to work, but his mind was already calculating again. Although he couldn't pocket the difference in buying a car, at least he had upgraded to an off-road vehicle, which counted as improving his own welfare. Recently, he had contacted a construction company, and from now on, the earthquake monitoring station would be handed over to them for repair, which would bring in at least 2-3 million yuan.

  Wei Shuqin returned home and was interrogated by her father for a long time, asking this and that. Wei Shuqin also told Wei Chengxu according to the plan set on the way, saying that Chen Gong's parents were both school teachers, and their family was quite well-off, with two houses in the city, both over 100 square meters, and everyone at home treated her very well. She also took out the bracelet and red envelope given by Chen Gong's mother Li Xiuzhen before she left.

  Originally, the red envelope contained 12,000 yuan in cash, but Wei Shuqin was afraid that her father would be suspicious, so she replaced it with one worth 1,200 yuan. The bracelet wasn't swapped out, and Wei Chengxu is quite discerning - this bracelet is made of natural jadeite, with a natural texture and color, definitely A-grade goods. With its exquisite craftsmanship, it's likely to be worth tens of thousands.

  But Wei Chengxu didn't have any suspicions, maybe it was a treasure left by the elderly at home, and gave it to his own daughter. It can also be seen that Chen Gong's family loves Wei Shuqin deeply, and he is also very comforted in his heart. In addition to Chen Gong's character, Wei Chengxu handed over his daughter to him, which is also a bit reassuring.

  On his first day of work, Chen Gong thought it was necessary to hold a gathering to warn and advise the employees, and also to give himself a boost.

  Everyone arrived on time, and Director Xu also sighed that after Director Chen came, the work discipline has changed a lot, it's like a team with combat effectiveness.

  Chen Gong was also very happy, and his words were flying out, "At the beginning of the year, everyone got their red envelopes in hand and had a great time celebrating the new year. I see that you all still look quite pleased with yourselves, haven't you spent all the bonus money yet? Is there anyone who has stashed this bonus money away as private savings? Let me tell you upfront, if it's hidden in the office and locked up, and someone steals it, I, as the director, will not be responsible."

  "Comrades, today our task is heavy. The global earthquake frequency is high, and the recent incident in the southern waters of our Huaxia country has also had a significant impact. If we can discover it in time and do a good job of disaster prevention and mitigation, I think no matter how big the disaster comes, we can overcome and solve it smoothly. I suggest everyone quickly find their position, enter their role, under the correct leadership of the district committee and district government, do a good job this year's work, and I declare here that next year's bonus will not be less than this year's..."

  Chen Gong's speech made the employees present feel passionate and excited. What is most dear in this world? Besides family, it's money!

  Deputy Director Deng Peng also prepared to go to Chen Gong's office after the meeting, and first told Chen Gong about the project contracting, as long as he could get through to the director, the money would still be a lot.
