Chapter 7 Chapter VII

As expected, Jian Youran's car has been on the road for seven hours.Because of the heavy snow, the high-speed road was closed, so I had to take the national road.And there are constant traffic jams on the national highway, and each jam takes hours.Before leaving, Cheng Hui had brought the car with him, but Jian Youran asked him to throw it away.Facts have proved that Jian Youran's approach is wise.One more car means more congestion.A handy car, just look at the empty space and leave.Stopping and stopping, I arrived at Taohua Town at noon.It was blocked again, and my stomach was growling.

The snacks in Taohua Town are very famous.In the early years, when the highway was closed, this was the favorite place for passing cars to stop. While eating in Taohua Town, Jian Youran received a text message from Du Guanghui.Du Guanghui said that the snow in Tongshan was too heavy, which was shocking.He walked into the mountains early this morning, with cotton cloth wrapped around his shoes, and he had to walk with a cane. If he didn't pay attention, "I might become a martyr."Du Guanghui also played humor at the end.Jian Youran saw the cold.Holding his wine glass, he imagined Du Guanghui walking forward step by step in the snow, and sighed in his heart.

"Oh, this is Du Guanghui, Du Guanghui!" As for the last humorous sentence, Jane believed that it belonged to someone else.How could Du Guanghui, who has never been humorous, make such humorous remarks? Of course, Jian Youran quickly texted Du Guanghui back.He knew that Du Guanghui sent him this text message, partly because he called last night to check on him.Du Guanghui is a cautious person who always repays his kindness.Such a person has a heavy psychological burden and cannot let go. "Take care. I'm also in the country." Jane replied again. After eating, Jane felt warmer again.The car started to walk slowly.Cheng Hui said this is called: crawling.

Jane smiled again and said, "This should be called wriggling. Wriggling. Like a worm." "Appropriate, appropriate! A secretary is a secretary." Cheng Hui said. Jian Youran felt a little sleepy.Although the car was moving slowly in the morning, Jian Youran's eyes were always open, and they were very wide open.The road is slippery in snowy weather, the most prone to accidents.There are constantly accident vehicles on the side of the road.Most of the traffic jams are caused by accidents with other vehicles.Jane opened her eyes again, looking at the road and the front.Even when stuck in traffic, he watched.But now, his eyes are really tired.The air conditioner was on in the car and it was very warm.He fell asleep in the squirming of the car.In his sleep, he suddenly thought of Zhao Ni.The way Zhao Ni lay in his arms made him feel sweet.

The snow was still falling all over the sky, but Jane saw that the snow was getting lighter.It's not like a few days ago. "Snowflakes in Yanshan are as big as a mat", it is really a snowflake as big as a mat, sometimes the front of the car is covered, and there is nothing in the world except snow. On the way to the countryside, Jian Youran once remembered the song she sang when she was young: on the vast snow, a young man wandering He has a lover in his heart, However, I don't know where my lover is... He hummed softly, and Xiao Zheng also smiled when he saw him.Xiao Zheng didn't know that when he was in college, Jian Youran was the most famous tenor in the college.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Jian Youran's car finally arrived at the provincial capital. The roads in the provincial capital have been swept away, and the driving lanes have been vacated in the middle of the roads, and the snow has been piled up on the open spaces in the green belts.Cheng Hui asked: "Will you go to the hotel first? Or?" "Let's stay here first." Jian Youran said. Cheng Hui glanced at Jian Youran, he didn't quite understand the clear meaning of Secretary Jian's words.Should Cheng Hui and the driver be asked to stay, or all three of them?It stands to reason that when Secretary Jian returned to the door, he should go home.However, leaders have their own ideas of leadership, maybe...

The car went directly to the rich man. Dafuhao is a five-star hotel with integrated catering and accommodation.Cheng Hui asked the driver to go to the front desk to ask for two rooms, he and the driver lived in it, and Jian Youran lived in one alone.Jian Youran took the room card naturally and went upstairs first.Just as the door was opening, the phone rang.Jian Youran answered the phone, listened to the meeting, and said: "Ah, ah, I'm having a meeting in the county, and I can't go back. The snow here is very heavy, very heavy. Okay, okay, take care of the children at home. I'll go back when the snow stops, all right. Hang up."

Cheng Hui could tell that Jian Youran answered the phone call from his wife.He pretended not to hear and entered the room.The driver Xiao Ma said: "Secretary Jian is really..." "Don't talk nonsense. Talk less." Cheng Hui cursed, Xiao Ma fell silent. Jian Youran simply washed up, and then started to call the reporter friends who had already contacted last night.These people need to be urged three times and four times, otherwise they are too busy.When you are busy, you forget things. "Ye Ji, come here, wait for you, everyone is here, haha", Jane smiled again.

"Old Mo, why don't you come over? The wine is cold, I'm waiting for you." Jian Youran still smiled. After the phone call, it was six o'clock.Jian Youran called Cheng Hui to go downstairs and went directly to the box.This box was booked by Jian Youran on the phone in the morning, because it was an old relationship, otherwise there would be no booking at all.The hotel business is good, especially the rich.Otherwise, how did China become the world's first big food consumption country? Cheng Hui is also a person who has been through the field more or less. He has been in business in these years and has seen many battles, large and small.However, facing such a large group of media friends invited by Deputy Secretary Jian Youran, he still showed the vulgarity of a peasant entrepreneur.Cheng Hui had no choice but to stand amidst the hustle and bustle.Jian Youran shook hands with some people, hugged some people, and even patted their shoulders when they came up.All of this shows Jian Youran's intimacy with these media friends, and also shows the unusual relationship between them.

"Come on, come on, let me introduce you. This Cheng Hui, Mr. Cheng, the boss of Hudong County Huihuang Industry. This is an era of economic development, and it is also an era of bosses. Bring him here today and meet everyone When we meet, we will support you in the future. But remember, Hudong not only has Jian Youran, but more importantly, there is this brilliant industry!" Jian Youran said, pushing Cheng Hui to the front.Cheng Hui bowed his hands to everyone, and he used this method consciously.Enterprises are like rivers and lakes, and these people are different from Secretary Jian Youran.This surrender has the meaning of the world.

At the banquet, everyone talked about the current development of the company while drinking.Friends from the media paid more attention and criticized more.Someone said the word farmer entrepreneur.Jian Youran said: "You can't say that now, it should be called a private entrepreneur." "Actually, they are not all the same. Changing the soup does not change the medicine. The key is to change the brain." Wang Ji of the provincial TV station said. "That's true. Now some farmers and entrepreneurs, when they are small, they are okay; "This is a congenital deficiency, and we can't blame anyone else. It's also a big wave washing the sand, and those who stay are the elites." "For example, our President Cheng, I think he is an elite!" Jian Youran said with a smile without losing the opportunity. Everyone raised their glasses together and toasted Mr. Cheng, the elite of the private enterprise.Cheng Hui replied one by one. In fact, he knew in his heart: For people like the media, it looks the most noble.What they say and criticize are all big things; in their eyes, everything has shortcomings, and everything has shortcomings.However, Cheng Hui has also seen the little innocence in their bones.Every year, Minister Jia of the Propaganda Department of the county party committee will continue to bring people from the media from the provincial capital, nominally for interviews, but actually for key sponsorship.Brilliant Industry's annual payment for this fee is not a decimal. As for the concept of family entrepreneurs mentioned by everyone, in fact Cheng Hui himself does not care.He was born in an authentic family, worked as a village cadre for a few years, and then saw the right time to start a business.Of course, all loans are used.After a few years, the business was booming, and he became an increasingly famous entrepreneur in East Hudong.However, he himself knows the weakness of the enterprise.From the day they started the business, neither Brilliant Industry, nor its predecessor, the Hardware Mold Factory, had ever used a single relative.Cheng Hui can give them money, but he cannot keep them in the company.This is also an important reason why Cheng Hui, a small mold factory, can go to today.So many companies that Cheng Hui started together back then have all withered now.They are not only withering in the development of market economy, but also in the internal friction of enterprises. "It's hard to run a business!" Old Liu of the market newspaper said while toasting Cheng Hui. "It's hard to say, it's a market economy. It's not difficult if it's not difficult. The key is to rely on everyone's support. Once everyone supports it, no matter how difficult it is, it will not be difficult." Cheng Hui drank a glass and made another round of respect . Jian Youran looked at Cheng Hui, thinking that it is difficult to be the boss of a company nowadays, not only to manage the company well, but also to drink well.Difficult! After drinking 80% of the wine, Jian Youran said not to drink it, and she would be drunk if she drank any more.It's no fun when you're drunk, let's go and sing, okay? This proposal was immediately approved.The drinking stopped immediately, and Cheng Hui went to sell the order before the drinking stopped.A total of four thousand and two, the pony stuck out his tongue.Cheng Hui didn't make a sound, just thinking in his heart: This hotel is not rich, and the food is all money.well! Singing is on the tenth floor of the rich man.This is a well-decorated, high-grade entertainment club.Jian Youran said: "Sing to your heart's content tonight, everyone wants to sing. After singing, follow me to the east of the lake tomorrow morning." "Old Jane is amazing. Otherwise, why invite us to sing?" Someone was breathing and belching. "Of course, who made you drink my wine and sing my song?" Jane joked again. During the break from singing, Jian Youran went out to answer the phone, which was from Zhao Ni.Said she had arrived at the rich man.Jane said again: "I'm busy now. How about you come over too, we're singing now." "This...isn't appropriate?" "What's wrong with that? We're all journalist friends, and these people are very open. Come here, the tenth floor." Jane returned to the box again and whispered a few words to Cheng Hui.Cheng Hui smiled and left the box.After a while, Cheng Hui brought in a young woman, clapped her hands and introduced: "Everyone, this is Miss Zhao, the flower of the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee. Tonight, I heard that Secretary Jian is back, and I specially invite you let her come over." In fact, some of these media friends know Zhao Ni.Moreover, there are also some individuals who know the relationship between Jian Youran and Zhao Ni, and casually smile beside them.Thinking that Jian Youran's move was interesting, let Cheng Hui block it.In fact, isn't blocking and not blocking the same?But if it's blocked, it's like being covered with a layer of cloth, which looks better. Zhao Ni sat down generously, and asked Jian Youran: "Director Jian, ah, no, Secretary Jian, why didn't you go to the ministry when you returned to the provincial capital? Did you really forget?" "How can this be? Look at how busy it is. The car has been driving for a day before reaching the provincial capital. Until now. Haha, haha." Zhao Ni looked at Jian Youran, and Jian Youran turned her head away consciously, and asked the others: "Let's all sing one, tonight, everyone will sing one." "I knew that Secretary Jian was confused. When Ms. Zhao came, she was in a bit of a mess. Since there are beauties, then we ugly people will be spared. Right, everyone thinks so?" The palace reporter of the Evening News looked at her while talking. With Jian Youran and Zhao Ni. Zhao Ni said: "I'm not a beauty? I'm just an old ugly person. Palace reporters talk like a rafter, you can't say that." "Big mouth like a rafter?" The palace reporter laughed at himself and said, "The beauty's words are just one word: 'wonderful'." "If it's wonderful, let's sing it." Someone nearby ordered a song for Zhao Ni.Zhao Ni was also unambiguous, picked up the microphone and sang.Her voice was fine, but, to be honest, her pitch was off.However, there are all kinds of singing styles when singing in a karaoke hall.Anyway, if the singing is good, everyone applauds; if the singing is not good, everyone applauds as well.The important thing is to participate!As soon as Zhao Ni finished singing, someone shouted: "Okay, okay! One more." Jane smiled again and said, "Miss Zhao has a good voice, but she can't sing well. I suggest that some brother be invited to sing a duet with her. Who will come?" "Just Secretary Jian and yourself, just the two of you, that's right." A round of applause, as expected by Jian Youran. The two sang "Heart Rain". While singing, Zhao Ni's eyes were fixed on Jian Youran.Jian Youran moved as far as possible to the outside, but Zhao Ni sang more emotionally. "Okay, really good!" After singing, there was another round of applause.But Jian Youran looked at the phone, and said to the people next to her: "I have something to do, and Mr. Cheng wants to leave for a while. How about this, Miss Zhao is here to accompany everyone." "Forget it, you have something to do, let's move the battlefield." Wang Ji said on the radio station, and everyone agreed.So, Jian Youran stood at the door, sent off these media friends one by one, and made an appointment to leave at nine o'clock tomorrow morning. The night wind was a bit cold, Zhao Ni stood by the door, and Jian Youran said, "Why don't you go up first." She handed over the room card as she spoke.Zhao Ni said, "Come back early." Jian Youran nodded and got into the car with Cheng Hui.In less than ten minutes, we arrived at the dormitory of the provincial party committee.Jian Youran stopped the car at the door and called Minister Ouyang's house.Minister Ouyang has just arrived home.Jian Youran sat in the car for a few more minutes, then got out of the car and went to the small building of Minister Ouyang's house. There is nothing special about these small buildings in the dormitory of the provincial party committee at night.However, if you look at it during the day, it is still very emotional.The dormitory is divided into front and rear courtyards.The front yard is the dormitory of each unit in the Administration Bureau.Pass through these collective dormitories, and then enter a post, and you will arrive at the small building area inside.There are twenty buildings in total.Those who live here are all cadres above the deputy provincial level.Vehicles outside are not allowed to enter, and on the inside, they must be approved by the interviewed leader on the phone before they are allowed to pass.Some passes were also issued internally, and Jian Youran had one, because he was the office director of the Propaganda Department and visited Minister Ouyang's house a lot.It is inconvenient without a certificate. The yard is quiet, the shadows of the trees are mottled, and the wind blows through the leaves, making some rustling sounds. In front of Minister Ouyang's house, Jane rang the doorbell again.The door opened quickly, and Jian Youran led Cheng Hui into the house. As soon as Minister Ouyang opened his mouth, he asked, "Are you still used to it when you arrive in the county?" "Fortunately, it just caught up with heavy snow recently." Jane stood still. "Sit down, sit down, this one..." "Ah, this is Mr. Cheng from Hudong Brilliant Industry." Cheng Hui also called forward, "Hello, Minister." Minister Ouyang briefly asked about Jian Youran's situation in the east of the lake, and also mentioned Du Guanghui.It is said that Du Guanghui is too calm, and I wonder if he can adapt to work in the county?Jian Youran said: "It should be possible. We also talked on the phone in the morning. The snow in Tongshan is even heavier. He is also on the front line against snow." "This time, the whole county is fighting against the snow. Originally, I couldn't come back, but there are two things that I must come back to report to the minister. So..." Jian Youran said with a smile, "One is my I have invited some friends from the media, and I will go to Hudong tomorrow to focus on the anti-snow and economic development of Hudong." "That's good, we have to take advantage of the propaganda cadre's secondment, this is good!" Minister Ouyang said that this is good twice. "The second thing is about Mr. Cheng. They have a project that is being approved by the Provincial Development and Reform Commission. It is somewhat competitive and difficult. However, for Brilliant Industry, this project must be approved. I think, can the minister please?" Give……" "Ah, well, what project?" Cheng Hui immediately talked about the project. After hearing this, Minister Ouyang said: "This project should be good. Besides, when you go to the county, it is mainly to serve the economic development. You entered the role very quickly, which is very important." Okay. About the project, I will tell the comrades in the Development and Reform Commission, okay." "Then thank you minister. This is the minister's concern and support for my work. Thank you minister." When Jian Youran said this, her voice trembled. Minister Ouyang stood up and patted Jian Youran again, saying: "Do it well, the ministry will fully support the dispatch of cadres. Do it well." "Then thank you, minister, and don't bother me." Jian Youran walked towards the door as she spoke.Cheng Hui took a step back and put a large envelope on the shoe cabinet at the door.Minister Ouyang followed behind and said, "Little Jane, look, look. Alas! Okay, walk slowly, walk slowly!" After leaving the dormitory of the provincial party committee, Cheng Hui found that his palms were sweating.It was the first time for Cheng Hui to go to the home of a cadre at the level of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee.He has seen provincial leaders of this level before.However, it is not easy to step into their home.It can be seen that Minister Ouyang Jie is a straightforward leader who basically agreed to the brilliant project.A provincial party committee often agreed, but in fact it was a decision.As soon as Minister Ouyang spoke, the director of the Development and Reform Commission had to squeeze out a nail even if he squeezed it out.Cheng Hui looked back at Jian Youran sitting in the car resting his mind, and thought: It would be better to have more temporary cadres like this.These cadres are familiar with in the province, and they have face, and they are really handy in doing things and running projects.Without Secretary Jian Youran, even if he, Cheng Hui, was able to enter Minister Ouyang's house, he would not be able to speak, let alone... Jian Youran's cell phone rang again, it was Minister Ouyang.Minister Ouyang blamed Jian Youran, why did he do this?Jian Youran smiled and said: It's just a point.nothing else.I accept the minister's criticism.Never do it again next time. Putting down the phone, Cheng Hui asked, "Is it Minister Ouyang?" "Yes. He's against it." Back at the rich man, Cheng Hui greeted Jian Youran at the stairs, and went into his room by himself. Jane returned to the room again, and Zhao Ni was in the bathroom. "Where are you coming back? I'm coming soon." Zhao Ni's voice was filled with moisture. Jane lay on the bed again, he felt tired.Although he didn't drink much at night, only 70% compared to his drinking capacity, but he has been running around the county recently, and when he relaxes, he feels even more tired.Zhao Ni was humming softly in the bathroom, it was obvious that she was in a good mood.Jian Youran was listening to the song, and for a moment, she thought of Xiao Miao.It was the first time for Jian Youran to return to the provincial capital without going home.There was a tinge of guilt in his heart, but it was immediately diluted by Zhao Ni who came out of the bathroom in her pajamas.Zhao Ni stood, under the dim light, like a fairy wrapped in a light veil.Jane watched, but didn't speak. Zhao Ni walked over slowly, with a faint smile on her face. She walked to the bed, put her hand on Jian Youran's forehead, and said, "Xiong, come on!" "Bear" is what Zhao Ni called Jian Youran in private.This is their first time together, and right in the middle of the climax, the TV happens to be showing two bears mating.Zhao Ni called Jian Youran a "bear" from then on.Jian Youran was a little unhappy when she heard it at first, but after listening to it a few times, she also felt the intimacy and uniqueness behind this title. "Ah, you fall asleep first, I'll go take a shower, I'm very tired." Jian Youran stood up as she spoke, and just bumped into Zhao Ni's arms. The warmth made Jian Youran's heart tremble.He quickly slid down on the bed, and Zhao Ni's lips were already on his.Jian Youran seemed to smell the breath of spring grass, the smell of flowers in the forest, and more like the scent of long-lost secret love.He was a little dizzy.He stretched out his hand and hugged Zhao Ni tightly... In the provincial capital at night, everything is falling asleep, including the sound of the city, the gradually stopping snowflakes on the roof, and those people walking back step by step in the snow... Everything woke up in anticipation again. Early the next morning, Jane woke up again. When he opened his eyes, Zhao Ni's head was resting on his arm.Jane looked at it again, Zhao Ni was as quiet as a child. "Bear", Jian Youran remembered Zhao Ni's voice calling him again, he lowered his head and kissed Zhao Ni's forehead.Then, she sat up gently, moved Zhao Ni's head away, and placed it comfortably on the pillow.After washing and combing, Jian Youran glanced at Zhao Ni again, she was still asleep.He closed the door and went out. Cheng Hui and Xiao Ma were already waiting.The three of them arrived at the restaurant and ate the buffet briefly. When they went upstairs, Jane whispered to Cheng Hui: "I won't go up, there are still people resting." Cheng Hui smiled, and when he came down to check out, he specifically greeted the front desk.Just after paying the bill, several friends from the media have arrived.Most of these friends have their own cars.However, Jian Youran was born as an office director after all, so he was a little worried about these people's driving skills.Therefore, I repeatedly told you last night that no one is allowed to bring a car.All the cars brought by him will be placed in the rich man.In addition, I called for a commercial vehicle.The car is comfortable and has a high safety factor.Jian Youran knew in her heart: In this snowy day, run to the east of the lake.Although there are not many roads, there are risks.Since he was the guest invited by Jian Youran, he must be responsible for their safety. The commercial vehicle belongs to the Provincial Department of Culture, and Jian Youran called the office director of the department, and the matter was settled.After all, the Propaganda Department is still the upper level of the Department of Culture.It stands to reason that the Department of Culture belongs to the government. At the county level, the Bureau of Culture doesn't pay much attention to the Propaganda Department.But in the province, the Propaganda Department is the leader of the Provincial Party Committee, and the Department of Culture treats the Propaganda Department politely.Jian Youran is also the director of the propaganda office. If the two directors talk about something, how can it be impossible? It was already very cold in the provincial capital at the end of December.Especially after this continuous snow day, there is a biting chill in the air.Jian Youran shook her neck, stomped her feet, and joked with friends from the media.Wang Ji said: "Now that the cadres are sent to temporary posts, it is actually a kind of care for the cadres by the state." "What kind of strange theory is this?" Jane asked with a smile. "What strange theory? It's not strange at all. The lower-level cadres have been squatting underground for two or three years. Who doesn't enjoy the special policies of the country? Among other things, it is family planning..." Wang Ji said, looking at Jane And then, "Just this one, amazing! After two years of temporary employment, both sons and daughters will return. There are so many beauties in the east of the lake, and the state has given policies. Can you, old Jane, have no accidents? Not in the plan, not in the plan. It's all the same anyway. Call Dad. Haha." "Nonsense", Jian Youran also laughed loudly, "You, you, Wang Ji, you are worthy of being a famous prostitute in the provincial capital!" Just talking and laughing, Jian Youran saw Zhao Ni coming down.He wasn't surprised, Zhao Ni woke up, and she must have come out to look for him if she didn't see him.What he is worried about now is whether Zhao Ni will slip up.However, Zhao Ni has always been cautious, so she probably won't. Sure enough, when she arrived at Jian Youran's side, Zhao Ni greeted a few media friends she knew, and then said: "What about Director Jian? Where do you live here? I'm back, and I won't go to the department to see it." Jian Youran smiled unnaturally, and said, "I just came here and am going back to the county? Is there something wrong?" "That's right, I was singing with you last night, and I met a friend who was here. I didn't go home. Anyway, I'm alone, it's the same everywhere. Do you have something to do? Then I'm leaving." Zhao Ni said and was about to turn around.She suddenly saw Jian Youran's gaze turned elsewhere.Following her gaze, she saw a woman stepping down from a car that had just stopped. Jane went up to meet her again and said, "Xiao Miao, why did you come here?" Xiao Miao was also surprised, and looked around, there were so many people, some of them, like Zhao Ni, whom she knew, asked, "Why did you come back? When did you come back? Didn't you say you were still in the county last night?" ? Without saying a word." "I just came back, and I took these media friends to Hudong for interviews. Is Xinxin okay? Look, I'm too busy to go home. What about you?" "There are people from Beijing. We have a meeting here in the morning." Xiao Miao said, looked at his watch, and said, "I'm going in. Are you not going back today?" "I won't go back. Come back when you have time in a few days. You go in." Jian Youran said, and patted Xiao Miao's back lightly and discreetly.Xiao Miao said that I'm leaving, and walked towards the door.When they reached Zhao Ni's side, they nodded lightly and went in. After a short period of silence, Jane smiled again: "Is it all ready? It's all here, let's go." Standing in the open space, Zhao Ni watched Jian Youran and the others get into the car, and then watched the car leave the gate of the rich man and disappear into her slightly blurred and sweet sight...
