Chapter 10: Casual Jokes

The Development Zone has its own office in Beijing, and generally, the Provincial Office does not need to do anything for them. But after running for a few days, there was no progress. Today, I heard that Director Dong and Director Wang of the Provincial Office were both "sick" and hospitalized, so I simply went to the hospital to see Directors Dong and Wang. After all, the Provincial Office has much wider channels than the Development Zone Office, and maybe I can find some shortcuts from Director Dong.

Who knew that after meeting Director Dong, when they mentioned the matter of running forward, Director Dong and Director Wang both looked pale, hesitating and didn't say anything. In the end, Director Dong was kind. Seeing that Boss Bai mentioned that the gifts he got from the hospital were not few, he said very tactfully that he would not accompany you for lunch at noon, and let Director Wu invite our Director Zhao to accompany you at Feilong Hotel. In the words, he naturally hinted that if Director Zhao could be persuaded to help, maybe your things would be easier.

Wu Fengjiao was not there at the time, so how could she know that she and Zhao Jianhui had been betrayed by their immediate superiors? After receiving Director Dong's call, he learned that several leaders of the development zone went to the hospital to see Director Dong. Director Dong asked her to be responsible for the reception. This kind of thing was originally Wu Fengjiao's job, so why would she think of going to other places?

During the distance from the hospital to the hotel, the two directors of the development zone asked about Zhao Jianhui's situation in a roundabout way, and sighed about Zhao Jianhui's "great achievements" in Dayun City, but it was a pity that they had no chance to meet.

Wu Fengjiao smiled and said that I would call him and invite him to have dinner together, so you can meet him, right? Wu Fengjiao thought that it would be good for Zhao Jianhui to have more contact with leaders of other units, but she didn't know that this was exactly what Zhao, Zhang and Boss Bai wanted.

Therefore, during the meal, the two directors and Boss Bai targeted Zhao Jianhui together. Although the words were implicit, Wu Fengjiao and Xu Manli, two women who often rolled around at the wine table, quickly discovered the abnormality. No matter what Zhao Jianhui said, the three people were all complimenting him in disguise, and at the same time, they took the opportunity to introduce the difficulties encountered in the work of the development zone. It made the scene seem as if Zhao Jianhui was the leader of the development zone.

By now, Zhao Jianhui had understood the intention of Director Zhao to lower himself to talk to him at the beginning. If he didn't have something to ask of him, why would he be so humble in front of him with his level of director?

But others don't know his details, Zhao Jianhui himself must know it, right? With the help of his sister Liu Meiyu, now in Beijing, he knows the two directors of the municipal bureau and the branch bureau, and he doesn't know any of the others. Even if he wants to help, he must have the ability, right? So no matter what Director Zhao and Director Zhang say, he will agree, but he will never ask them what kind of difficulties they have encountered, so as not to bring trouble to himself.

It was only seven o'clock when the banquet ended. It was the first time for everyone to meet. It was one thing that they didn't know each other, but the seats were all people in the officialdom. After all, there were still many concerns. It was not appropriate to say anything in such a crowded place. But the two directors of the development zone were determined not to let Zhao Jianhui go. The old boss's hint was not in vain. Just look at how steady the young deputy director was at the table, and you can tell that he had something in his mind.

Although it was just past seven o'clock, it was already completely dark. The street lights on the road in front of the hotel were already on, and the orange-yellow halo made people feel warm and revery.

Originally, he came out to see the guests off, but after leaving the door, Director Zhao saw the neon sign of Feilong Nightclub at the west end of the hotel, and smiled and said that he had been to Feilong Hotel several times, but had never been to Feilong Nightclub, and didn't know what it looked like inside.

Boss Bai immediately took over the conversation and said that the leaders of the office had just entertained them, and he would be the host next, and invite all the leaders to rest for a while at Feilong Nightclub.

It was really weird, inviting people to rest in the nightclub again? The guests wanted to go, so Zhao Jianhui, Wu Fengjiao and Xu Manli felt that they had no way to refuse. After all, the nightclub is also a subordinate unit of the office, and Xu Manli can be regarded as the owner of the nightclub. Seeing that there are only two ladies, Wu Fengjiao and Xu Manli, accompanying him, Zhao Jianhui was too embarrassed to say that he wanted to leave.

In the city of feasting and revelry, at night, bars, nightclubs, karaoke halls and other entertainment venues have become a good place for people to relax. There is no difference from other nightclubs. Feilong Nightclub is also a dance floor, bar, private room. Bathing center is integrated. No matter what kind of leisure and entertainment you want, you can basically meet all your requirements in such a place. Of course, the premise is that you have enough money in your pocket to spend.

Most people probably think that dance halls are not places for serious people to go, because such places have all kinds of people, from government officials to street hooligans, and it is easy to cause trouble when there are too many people. But now the pressure of life is too great, and nightclubs are indeed a good place to relax after work. Zhao Jianhui used to be a security guard in a nightclub. Who of Director Zhao of the Development Zone has not discussed things in such places? It goes without saying that Boss Bao would often go there for business meetings. Even Wu Fengjiao would often arrange for Feilong Nightclub to provide reception services, and she would definitely accompany the leaders when they came.

Therefore, this group of people are all familiar with the atmosphere of nightclubs. Especially Boss Bao's driver, Xiao Zhang, walked to the front desk as soon as he entered the nightclub, and took charge of three private rooms without asking Boss Bai's opinion.

Originally, Zhao Jianhui was still using colors to hint at Xu Manli, but who knew how old Boss Bai was, but his eyes were very effective. He raised his hand to smooth his dyed black hair, and said with a smile: "Director Zhao, are you outside? It was already agreed that I was the one to invite you. In front of our Director Zhao, would you give me a chance to curry favor with the leader? If it weren’t for the presence of several of your office leaders, Director Zhao would not have given it to me so easily. This face.”

Boss Bai is good at talking. He expressed his position and flattered Director Zhao. Sure enough, Director Zhao laughed when he heard what he said. Zhao Jianhui could only smile and said: "Then you have spent money today. This is not a problem in our own territory. Boss Bai and Director Zhao will have to give me this opportunity when I return to Bingzhou."

Everyone smiled and nodded. Xiao Zhang asked for a private room, and a waiter came over to guide these people there. Seeing his boss following closely behind him with reserve, the waiter became even more cautious. He smiled and guided everyone up to the second floor: "Ladies and gentlemen, please come this way." Several people were led to the spacious private room on the east side of the second floor. After turning on the lights, they bowed and exited with a smile. The glass coffee tables in this room are all large, and there are a long yellow sofa and several yellow single sofas scattered around, enough to seat about ten people.

This time the driver Xiao Zhang didn't come in. He dragged Manager Ma to another private room. I really don't know what the third private room he wanted was for?

Boss Bai resumed his identity as the host and looked much younger. He personally greeted everyone to sit down, ordered beer and snacks, and specially asked for fruit drinks for Wu Fengjiao and Xu Manli.

A few people were joking and chatting. Of course, it was basically District Chief Zhang and Boss Bai of the development zone talking nonsense. Wu Fengjiao occasionally interjected a sentence to add the finishing touch. Others were just listeners, and Zhao Jianhui didn't interrupt much, drinking beer leisurely. , thinking about how to find an excuse to get out.

In fact, the target of the three people over there is him, how could they leave him a chance to escape? After chatting for a while at the beginning, and after everyone drank a few bottles of beer, the atmosphere in the room seemed to be more harmonious, and Director Zhang suggested playing music and singing. So Xu Manli walked over and turned on the stereo, and soft music sounded. I don’t know what Xu Manli was thinking. She took the microphone and said: "Although the development zone and the office are one family, since everyone has come to Feilong Nightclub, after all, we are In the office's territory, the first song should be sung by Director Zhao of the office. As the saying goes, it's Director Zhao's invitation to others. Do you think it's okay? "

What else is bad about that? So everyone applauded enthusiastically. Wu Fengjiao glanced at Xu Manli, then turned to look at Zhao Jianhui, wondering why these two people were so separated?

Zhao Jianhui smiled calmly and stood up: "Haha, Chairman Xu is my army. In fact, I am quite capable and know a lot of things, but I can't find a few musical cells in my body. Just now Chairman Xu said that I This is called throwing jade to attract jade. I don’t think it’s just throwing bricks to attract jade. If you don’t sing well, you have to applaud, and you must not laugh at it.”

As he spoke, he walked up to Xu Manli and said with a smile: "Please bring me the accompaniment of the song "Beautiful Beauty"..."

Xu Manli couldn't help but be startled after hearing this. She originally asked Zhao Jianhui to sing because she wanted to see him make a fool of himself, but she didn't expect that he chose a classic new song that became popular last year. I remember that the original singer of this song seems to be a female voice. It is not easy for a grown man to sing such a song.

Huh, you made a fool of yourself because of it. What happened to loving me? With a few clicks of her fingers, the melody of the song "Red Beauty" soon started playing.

The singing was melodious, melodious, and poignant. The microphone held by Zhao Jianhui was sent to the ear drums of everyone present. Several times, Xu Manli wanted to turn off the volume of the speaker to see if it was Zhao Jianhui who sang or something happened to the accompaniment tape. , and also brought in the original singer.

When Zhao Jianhui put down the microphone and returned to his seat, he couldn't help but smile when he saw everyone looking at him: "I told you, everyone has to applaud even if the singing is unpleasant. Why hasn't anyone applauded yet?" "

Boss Bai stared at Zhao Jianhui and said: "Director Zhao, to be honest and disrespectful, if you went to sing, your income would be much more than what you make now." As he said that, he took the lead in applauding, obviously seeing It can be seen that there is absolutely no compliment in his words this time. Even though Xu Manli's face was full of reluctance, she had to admit that Zhao Jianhui's song just now did indeed have a charm, and it was no less than the original song.
