Chapter 348 Do the right thing
The next day, early in the morning.
Shenzhen City Government.
The big boss Wu Xiang, dressed in a suit and tie with a neat hairstyle, shouted: "To be honest, Shenzhen has white cats and can accommodate black cats, but bringing guns and cannons to the dock, do you mean you are here to do business?"
"I can relax the rules, but I cannot relax the bottom line. If anyone dares to bring a gun into Shencheng Bay again, don't blame me for being rude!"
Wu Limin put his hands on his trouser seams, bowed slightly, and promised solemnly: "I will call right away to correct Yin Zhaotang's hot temper."
"We would rather save a bit of investment than endanger the safety of the people."
Wu Xiang frowned, picked up the enamel teacup on the table, and walked towards the kettle in the corner.
Wu Liming immediately stepped forward, took the boss's cup, added water, made tea, and handed it to the boss respectfully.
Nowhere has more rules than in a compound.
Wu Xiang was holding a yellow enamel cup with the words "Serve the People" on it, and he lowered his head to blow away the hot air. He thought, "But I have heard about Yin Zhaotang's difficulties. Tell him that I, Old Wu, cannot control the monsters in Lufeng County, but I can handle the high and low waves and the ebb and flow of the tide in Shencheng Bay with just one sentence."
"Shenzhen will support patriotic entrepreneurs who do business honestly and create jobs."
Wu Limin sighed and smiled, "With the boss's words, Xiao Yin should calm down. As a young man, he must have a temper."
Wu Xiang said unhappily: "If you have a temper, use it in a proper way, do business for the company, and avoid shady business. How can he be taken advantage of by crooked ways!"
Wu Limin knew that the big boss was really angry, so he bowed and stepped back quickly: "Boss, you are right, I will scold him for you!"
Wu Xiang waved his hand and said impatiently: "Go away."
When the office door was closed, the anger on his face disappeared. He lit a cigarette, looking worried, feeling that the situation was complicated and difficult to handle.
Suppressing the Shenxiantang in Hong Kong Island is only a temporary measure. The Special Administrative Region is a turbulent place, full of tigers, leopards, jackals, heroes and villains, who can be killed and captured endlessly.
Close your eyes and you will see a sea of red; open your eyes and you will see blood and sweat all over the ground.
Yin Zhaotang had just woken up and was drinking shrimp and barley porridge cooked by his girlfriend in the restaurant when he received a call from Wu Xiang on his mobile phone. He was very happy.
At least, the people in Shenzhen don't put things on hold when they are doing things, waiting until they get their heads broken before coming out to play the role of Justice Bao.
Such behavior will only make people feel disheartened.
Wu Limin was definitely not someone who really wanted to curse. He even sided with Yin Zhaotang and advised him in a gentle tone: "Next time someone causes trouble, call me first."
"Brother, you have a small piece of land in the province, and you still have some face. For legitimate reasons, no one dares to challenge you. The big boss wanted to investigate you in a meeting, and I directly expressed my disagreement."
"What's wrong with standing firm on your principles and not following others' lead? There's absolutely no problem at all! But it's really unnecessary to bring guns and cannons to bear."
"That little bit of firepower is not as effective as a word from me, brother, do you agree?"
Yin Zhaotang put down the spoon and smiled: "Yes, since Director Wu has guaranteed the goods, I will ask the brothers to bring fewer weapons."
"But the sea is not peaceful, so we should bring a dozen spears."
Wu Limin said with a smile: "Bring it, bring it. Don't carry it on your body. Show it openly. Who will investigate? I have informed Long Ke. Someone from the customs will be watching at the dock."
"Guaranteed safety!"
Yin Zhaotang nodded: "Okay, let's talk again if there is anything else, Director Wu."
Wu Limin hung up the phone, stood by the window, and happily lit a cigarette. The big boss's verbal criticism was harsh, but his desire to protect him was evident.
Secretary Chen Jilin pushed open the door and said, "Leader, I just received a new call. The Highway Bureau will have a new meeting tomorrow to discuss the highway planning of Futian District."
Wu Limin has a keen sense of politics. Holding the cigarette butt in his hand, he turned around and asked, "Are there new roads in Futian District?" "It means the plan needs to be revised. According to rumors, the national highway from the Futian Pegasus factory to the Shenzhen Port will be rerouted, which may be more than ten kilometers long."
Chen Jilin's report is finished.
Wu Limin threw away the cigarette and said, "Come on, follow me to the Highway Bureau."
Road planning has always been led by local governments, and the highest-level national highways are also planned after the Highway Administration holds a meeting and issues mileage indicators and requirements for connectivity.
The province will then plan on its own and submit it for approval, with many corners and edges that can be freely adjusted.
Futian District is like a blank slate, so various plans and policies can be tailored and modified just as easily.
Wu Liming works for the China Merchants Group, which has nothing to do with the Highway Bureau. However, under the general banner of putting economy first and investment promotion first, various departments will allocate resources to cooperate with investment promotion.
In addition, people from the Shenzhen Highway Bureau would attend the meeting, privately chat with colleagues, and pass on information, so it was normal for the news to leak out.
Wu Limin hurried to Guangcheng, used his connections, visited the project owners, hosted banquets and lobbied them, trying to save the situation. But the Highway Bureau seemed to have received instructions and resolutely carried out the plan. A vote resulted in the plan being scrapped and the project was put into a re-examination phase.
After hesitating for a long time, he still called Yin Zhaotang to inform him. After receiving the call, Yin Zhaotang felt very depressed.
The national highway that runs from the factory to the dock did not fall from the sky.
He took huge risks, wrote articles, gathered parliamentarians, created public opinion, became an opinion leader, and repaid the debt with his contributions.
Just to be swallowed by a group of insects?
Although I am reluctant, I can still do business even without the national highway.
He was unwilling to accept the defeat and the microphone fell silent for a while. Wu Limin finally waited for a sincere answer: "I will not endure it, and I will not sit and wait for death."
"If Director Wu is willing to help, please make an appointment with the senior leader for me."
Do the right thing with the right attitude.
After Yin Zhaotang finished speaking, there was a clear blowing sound in the microphone, as if he had exhaled a long puff of cigarette. Wu Limin was very surprised at his calmness and replied, "The leader has already arranged a time. You go directly to his office at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon."
Yin Zhaotang nodded: "Thank you."
Wu Limin promised: "We will definitely do our best to help you."
Yin Zhaotang said calmly: "I believe that if I do the right thing, God will help me."
After making this phone call, he basically no longer had any hope in Wu Limin, because someone who had broken his promise once should never be trusted a second time.
Going to the mainland to meet Wu Xiang was just a way of giving face.
You have to know that no matter whether Lao Zhong is good or bad, it is just "work" for them. Mistakes can be made in work, but only oneself cares about one's own life and death.
Because, we only have one life!
"The next batch of goods will still carry the guns."
Niu Qiang responded: "Yes, I will notify you immediately."
Out of respect, the next morning, Yin Zhaotang changed into a suit, packed some local specialties, and took his five brothers through the border into the province.
The convoy was already queuing up at Luohu Port when the cell phone rang. It was Wu Xiang himself calling.
On the phone, Wu Xiang said earnestly, "Mr. Yin, I have received a study notice from the province. I have to go to Guangcheng to study for seven days. I must leave immediately and cannot contact anyone during this period."
"During this period, take care of yourself and don't do anything rash. Give me a few days. Once the study is finished, things will be settled."
