Chapter 448: The details on the wine table
Chapter 448 Details at the Wine Table
"You want to take the initiative to socialize?"
Liang Haoqun was a little surprised.
You have to know that not many female TV hosts actually like to go to drinking parties. After all, being a mascot or atmosphere creator at a drinking table is not something to brag about.
Of course Huang Cancan was not willing to go, but there was nothing she could do.
Because Sister Chest Trembling meets three conditions:
1. The host of a TV program (for ordinary people, this status has a kind of unattainable holiness, a bit like a celebrity who has descended to earth).
2. Good looks and figure (necessary and sufficient conditions for the metronome of the atmosphere at the drinking table).
3. “Backer” Lu Hong went in (this was the most crucial reason, she had no one to rely on to refuse).
So I was forced to agree.
In fact, the principles of everything in the world are the same.
For example, why do some leaders still need to be investigated even though they have retired?
Because this also meets three elements:
1. Demonstrate unwavering anti-corruption efforts (as long as you break the law, you will be investigated even after retirement).
2. Relatively low political influence (much smaller than those of incumbent leaders).
3. Create an atmosphere of "being in danger" (warning those leaders in office that they will be caught if they take any action).
If Huang Cancan was so enthusiastic under normal circumstances, Liang Haoqun would definitely agree. However, today's social event was not mainly for the TV station. In order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Liang Haoqun still rejected Huang Cancan's request.
Many mature leaders within the system are like this.
Doing something may have benefits, but the disadvantages are unknown and uncontrollable, so they would rather not do it.
Translated into simple vernacular, it means "If you don't do it, you won't make any mistakes; if you do more, you will make more mistakes."
"Ok."
After being rejected, Huang Cancan didn't dare to bargain and followed.
However, she remembered that the place for the social event was Bingsheng.
……
Liang Haoqun arrived at the reserved hotel box and found that there were already a circle of people sitting on the sofa inside.
The person in the center should be Guo Jiamao, who once served as deputy district mayor and is about to take office as deputy director of the Provincial Capital City Communications Administration.
This is the guest of honor.
Some people may think that Guo Jiamao should be the host, but this is not the case.
The invitation was to invite "the three major operators in Guangzhou and their supervisors" to the appointment. Guo Jiamao was the supervisor, and the three major operators were willing to come because of his face. In theory, Lao Guo was the most distinguished guest tonight.
Just because he has a good relationship with Chen Zhe in private and is friends with Chen Peisong, it doesn’t mean that he is the “host”.
Liang Haoqun arrived a little later, so Chen introduced his identity again: "This is Director Liang Haoqun of the TV station, my senior from Zhongda University... This is Manager Sheng Yucai of Guangzhou Mobile, Manager Li Yunpeng of Guangzhou Unicom, and Manager Jin Tao of Guangzhou Telecom..."
"I don't need to introduce Brother Wan Da."
Chen said with a smile.
Wang Youqing also came. His task today was to accompany the guests with good wine and, ideally, to take the three managers to Yunhaiyue to relax.
Liang Haoqun exchanged business cards with everyone, sat on the sofa and joined their conversation.
The box had an antique feel and was lit with the rising scent of sandalwood. A waiter was pouring Maotai into each wine cup on the table one by one, while another waiter was standing beside the sofa, ready to refill everyone's cups at any time.
The aroma of wine mixed with tea was enjoyable both visually and taste-wise, but no one cared at all.
Everyone is a frequent visitor to social events and is used to it.
"Chen Zhe, you just said that you are arranging for the children of the new employees to attend Dongfeng East Primary School."
Guo Jiamao was very interested in this measure. He continued to inquire: "It's not easy to enter Dongfengdong."
“It’s definitely not easy to get in.”
Chen smiled and said, “I didn’t even go to Dongfengdong when I was a kid.”
"Dongfeng East Road Primary School" is one of the famous schools in Guangzhou. It was founded in 1948, which is older than the Republic, and its educational foundation ranks among the best in the country.
It is definitely impossible to get into a school of this level just by tracing back to the past, but if you ask the leaders of both Sun Yat-sen University and South China University of Technology to come forward and say hello, and then pay enough money, it will be no problem to squeeze in one or two children.
Chen Zhuo does not guarantee that every employee's children can enter Dongfengdong. Only the top talents recruited can enjoy this resource allocation.
"This is a very good idea." Liang Haoquan interrupted, "It solves the problem of children's schooling. Not only will the parents be grateful and contribute to the company, but it will also stabilize the hearts of these people."
"Brother Liang is right."
Chen Zhuo joked to himself: "I am holding the emperor hostage to control the princes. I am holding the little emperor at home hostage, and they have no choice but to obey."
"Hahaha……"
Several people laughed.
It sounds a bit humorous, and it is actually true.
Once a child goes to school somewhere, adults will inevitably take education into consideration when thinking about family development issues.
Just like this little kid who was transferred to Dongfeng East School, this meant that his father, who was a doctor, would have to work in Guangzhou for at least several years.
If everything goes well, there is a great possibility that I will even settle here.
……
After a while, the waiter who was pouring the wine came over and said, "Boss, the wine is ready."
The subtext of this sentence is "it's ready to be served."
The waiters in restaurants of this level have all undergone strict speech training. They will not use an imperative tone to command the guests, so they just inform them that it is up to them to decide when to seat the guests.
Chen Zhuo was the organizer of the drinking party. He waited patiently for Guo Jiamao to finish his tea and gently put down the cup before he calmly invited him:
"Uncle Guo, President Sheng, President Li, President Jin, Senior Brother Liang, Brother Wang, let's go to the table together."
“Okay, okay…please, please, please…”
Several people started to shout politely again.
The main reason was that Guo Jiamao saw Liang Haoqun coming and planned to give up the main seat.
Liang Haoqun naturally refused, so the two deputy director-level cadres started to pull each other.
In reality, this is all acting.
Doesn’t Guo Jiamao know that he must sit in the main seat at the table tonight?
However, we are influenced by Confucian culture, and even when abdicating the throne to the emperor, we have to "refuse three times and decline three times" and be polite at the dinner table to show that we are humble and polite.
At this time, as the initiator of the dinner, Chen Zhe couldn't just stand there and say nothing.
This is especially important!
Some young people stand like wooden stakes in all situations. They only take a step when you push them, and they seem not very smart.
Even if the leader doesn't say anything, a bad impression has already been left on you.
However, Chen did not stop him at the beginning. After about ten seconds (this time cannot be too long), he satisfied Lao Guo's "desire to perform".
He then said, "I remember Uncle Guo's age. He seems to be three months older than Senior Brother Liang..."
Liang Haoquan reacted immediately: "Old Guo, elders are respected. Come on, you must sit here."
"Oh! You guys."
Guo Jiamao could only say helplessly: "They just bully me because I'm old!"
Having said that, the butt finally sat in the main seat.
There are many factors to consider when arranging the seating arrangements for two leaders of the same level, just like Guo Jiamao must be the most respected tonight.
The next time the Propaganda Department TV station has an event, it may be Liang Haoqun's turn to be the host.
However, when persuading someone, you cannot be foolish enough to use the size of power or influence as an excuse, as that will directly offend the other person.
What do you mean?
My rank is low?
However, [age] is a good word.
Age is an objective thing. Most leaders will not be angry because of objective things. Of course, to be on the safe side, they can make up for it a little later.
How to make up?
When the main seat was determined and everyone sat down, Guo Jiamao and Liang Haoqun said a few simple words, and then it was Chen Zhuo's turn to offer wine.
He stood up with his glass in hand and said:
"Thank you for your support for the learning network. The learning network will live up to your expectations and cultivate more talents for Tsinghua and Peking University. Here, I also wish all leaders to take big and small steps to rise step by step, and to have good luck in official career and wealth."
"I don't grow older or older, I only grow in salary and position!"
Chen drank it all in one gulp.
