Chapter Thirteen: The Big New Year's Party

  This head of the Discipline Inspection Commission in Huaxia who can cause an "earthquake" with just a slight movement is actually Chen Gong's grandfather, it's too shocking. Today, Wei Shuqin has finally mustered up some energy and showed a few sparks of interest in this family meeting that she originally didn't care about.

  The old man began to preside over the meeting, "Everyone first tell me about last year's work, and then talk about plans. Xiūqín, Chén Gōng, and Shū Qín don't need to speak." The old man's memory seemed to be super strong, he remembered as soon as they were introduced.

  The meeting was actually very simple, Wei Shuqin originally thought it would take a long time to say.

  Everyone's speech was brief, reporting on the main work and plans for the next step. After listening to them all, the old man gave suggestions one by one.

  The first is Chen Gong's father Chen Gonghao's opinion, work for another year, next term become the secretary of Jing City, and also one of the members of Huaxia State.

  The second is Second Uncle Chen Guorong, who may return to Beijing within a year to take over as Minister of Land and Resources, rotating one place to lay the foundation for the next step.

  The third is Chen Guoxiang, the deputy general manager of the telecommunications company, has reached an extreme point and cannot move up, maintaining.

  The fourth is Third Uncle Zheng Hongjun, his level is already very high, and going further up would be the core layer, it's necessary to get the support of another family, otherwise he won't be able to advance.

  The fifth is Second Aunt Li Huajun, who will retire after this term and work at home.

  The sixth is Chen Gong's mother Li Xiuzhen, who was immediately adjusted to serve as deputy director of the Beijing Municipal Education Bureau.

  The seventh is the only representative of the younger generation, Chen Hao. The rank of Major General beckons to him, becoming one of the youngest Major Generals in China is not a dream.

  ……

  The meeting had just ended and the old man hurried away again. The leaders were still waiting to attend an important banquet together.

  Wei Shuqin quietly asked Chen Gong, "What about your third aunt's child? Hasn't she come back yet?"

  Chen Gong's third aunt, Chen Guoxiang, was infertile when she was young. Due to work reasons, they later decided not to have children. If adopting an old man, he would veto it decisively.

  Wei Shuqin has given the gifts she bought for Chen Gong's parents and grandfather to each of them, and Old Man Chen also said that from now on he cannot walk alone by himself and must use this cane.

  During the New Year's holiday, Wei Shuqin had a blast in Beijing, climbing the ancient Great Wall of China, visiting the imperial palace where emperors lived in ancient times, and watching the flag-raising ceremony at Tiananmen Square...

  On the fifth day of the new year, almost all businesses had resumed operations, and Chen Gong was also concerned about Xiao Xingya's "Golden Phoenix" situation, so he suggested taking Wei Shuqin to a high-end song city to sing.

  What Chen Gong didn't know was that Xiao Xingya, this formidable businesswoman, had already established a connection with Director Hao of the Municipal Public Security Bureau after their meeting together last time. Director Hao also admired this young female entrepreneur, and with the tacit approval of Deputy Minister Chen of the Ministry of Public Security, "Jin Bi Hui Huang" was almost referred to by insiders as one of the most well-connected places.

  After the last lifting of the blockade, it did not rush to open for business, but instead renovated again, and its grade increased by more than two stars. With the consumption level in Beijing, this "Golden Phoenix" has become Shaoxingya's most profitable business outside of real estate projects, and is no longer just a song city, but a large-scale entertainment center.

  Two people took a taxi to the entrance of "Jin Bi Hui Huang", which was indeed decorated like a palace, matching the name of the entertainment center. The gate was all golden and shining like gold. In the parking lot on the right side, there were BMWs and Audis! BMWs and Audis were almost the worst cars.

  Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Bentley, Hummer, Maserati, Lamborghini, Infiniti, Ferrari...

  Not to mention Wei Shuqin, even Chen Gong had never seen so many luxury cars at once. At the entrance of "Golden Splendor", there was a large painting with the words: New Year's Big Party.

  As soon as the two wanted to go in, they were stopped by the security guard at the door. The security guard looked at them and saw that they had come in a taxi, and they were young people. Could they afford to consume in this high-end place?

  Chen Gong was also puzzled, this open door for business actually doesn't let people in, then what's the point of opening the door, just to circulate air?

  On the other side, a stretched Lincoln car stopped at the entrance, and a middle-aged rich man got out, looking like a successful person. The driver opened the door and was also professionally trained, wearing white gloves on his hands.

  The security guard didn't even ask any questions, bowing deeply, "Welcome, please come in."

  "Wei Shuqin said discontentedly, 'How can he go in while we cannot?'"

  The security guard replied, "Look at their cars, they're worth a lot of money, you can tell they're people who can afford to spend. But those two are just ordinary working-class people, what do they have to spend? If they just came here to sing KTV, they should come back after the New Year's holiday, these few days are all big parties."

  Wei Shuqin knew that this security guard was a selfish person as soon as she saw him. "Security guard, can't we even go in to take a look?"

  Security! What security guards hate the most is when others call them security guards. If rich and powerful people call them that, it's fine, but if ordinary people do, they'll immediately jump up in anger: "You two get out of here! These days, the minimum daily consumption for activities is 100,000 yuan. Do you have that? Don't pretend to be something you're not, spend 100,000 and go home to cry for a year."

  Chen Gong looked at the advertisement and found no mention of a 100,000 yuan requirement. He asked the security guard where this rule was stipulated. The security guard didn't want to bother with them, "It's an internal regulation, move along, don't block our business, or I'll call the police to take you away." After saying that, he turned aside.

  Chen Gong didn't want to get entangled with them either, "Forget it, Shu Qin, let's change places and have some fun. Anyway, we can't sing K songs here today." As soon as the two of them walked down the stairs, a voice called out to Chen Gong.

  "Hey, Chen Shao, why are you leaving? Didn't you have fun?" Chen Gong turned his head to see Zhou Liang walking down from the Benz car, with a woman standing very close to him, but it wasn't the same one as last time.

  Wei Shuqin was so fond of this second ancestor that she shook her head and went away, Zhou Liang saw the situation and immediately came over, "Sister is good, last time I was prepared to make a good apology to both of you, but you left in a hurry, look, sister, today we met again, this is for you."

  A beautifully crafted gift box, Chen Gong took it over and opened it to take a look, it was a diamond pendant. "Shu Qin, someone's good intentions, you just take it, that stinky woman doesn't understand things, Zhou Liang is still quite good at being a person."

  Chen Gong said so, Zhou Liang also smiled all over his face, and nodded repeatedly to indicate that Chen Gong was right. Wei Shuqin couldn't say anything more and took the pendant.

  Chen Gong thought to himself, I'm not a rich man, and I don't even know what the financial situation is like at home. Don't be idle, it seems that I really need to make some extra money outside. This salary is not enough. Just this week, Zhou Liang, the son of a deputy mayor, was so arrogant, and who knows where his money comes from?

  Zhou Liang asked again, "The sky is so early, you two won't have had enough fun yet, right? The real show doesn't come out until night."

  Wei Shuqin pouted, "The security here is really arrogant, saying we're not worthy of entering."

  "What? Zhou Liang was shocked after hearing this. Chen Gong couldn't even get in, yet the people inside could come out."

  Zhou Liang is one of the regulars here, as soon as he stepped onto the stage, he immediately asked which security guard was being unreasonable just now. The security guard saw that it was Zhou Liang and became very polite, "Young Master Liang, it's you, who are you asking about? If they're your friends, they can definitely come in."

  Chen Gong and Wei Shuqin walked up, Zhou Liang asked the security guard, "Just these two."

  The security guard rubbed his eyes, and it turned out that the two people who had just been driven away were none other than Liao's friends. He suddenly became anxious, "Oh, so you're Young Master Liao's friends! Why didn't you say so earlier? I'm blind to talent indeed! Please, please come in, Young Master Liao!" The security guard was still quick-witted after all; he knew that offending Young Master Liao's friends would mean losing his job if the security team leader or manager found out.

  Chen Gong sneered, "Liang Ge, it seems that from now on I'll have to follow you around. If I don't reveal your identity, I won't be able to take a single step in this city. Liang Ge, please go ahead." Chen Gong deliberately made a gesture for Zhou Liang to lead the way.

  Zhou Liang felt a chill run down his spine, this was simply self-deprecation. He pushed the security guard away, "Get out of my sight, don't make me look at you and get annoyed. Chen Shao, how dare I put on airs in front of you? You say one word, and Xiao Liang will be at your beck and call, please go ahead and order me around."

  Zhou Liang bowed his head and gestured for Chen Gong to go ahead, Chen Gong led Wei Shuqin by the hand, holding her head high as they walked in. Zhou Liang followed behind them like a secretary carrying bags. The security guard looked surprised, fortunately that young master doesn't have the same social status as me, otherwise I wouldn't be able to survive in the capital city anymore. From now on, when looking at people, one must ask more questions and not offend the leaders without realizing it.

  Chen Gong expressed his doubts, "Zhou Liang, your dad is a deputy mayor, but how does your family have so much money?"

  Zhou Liang knew that Chen Gong was a traditional person and didn't hide it, "My mom relied on my dad's connections to do several real estate projects, where did the money come from? It's just policy support, not what Chen Shao thought."

  Chen Gong asked Zhou Liang what he was thinking. Zhou Liang didn't dare say it was something like bribery, "Mr. Chen must think I have insider information, bought stocks or lottery tickets and got rich, but that's not the case, it's all from our family's legitimate business."

  After the three of them went in, there was a very large "dance floor" inside, with round tables and chairs all around, and sofas and stools on the periphery. Although it was still early, there was already a somewhat crowded feeling inside, and the slender waitresses were carrying various wines and glasses back and forth.

  The scene is currently without DJ music, only soft music and piano melodies are playing. Although there are people chatting with each other in hushed tones, the voices are not loud, many people but not noisy, it's indeed a high-end venue.

  Chen Gong couldn't help but look around, "Shu Qin, the good seats are basically all taken. I just saw a reserved sign on an empty seat, it seems we'll have to sit in the outer area. You're not nearsighted, are you?"

  Wei Shuqin smiled and said, "Where I sit is still the same, what's the difference between playing and watching? I can see it from afar anyway."

  Zhou Liang carefully replied from behind, "Chen Shao, well, actually I had reserved the seat, it's just in front, that's my special seat, generally not given to outsiders." Zhou Liang said with a slightly proud tone, but then looked at Chen Gong staring at him and immediately lowered his head slightly, appearing more amiable.
