Excellent little farmer

Everywhere in the house is decorated in an antique style. The only flaw is that in addition to calligraphy, painting and carvings, there are also several photos of Qi Fandong and the main leaders of the province hanging on the wall. This makes me quite disapproving. It seems that this Confucian businessman has a lot of heart in his heart. , he is more in love with vanity, and his preference for Chinese studies is nothing more than arty. These few photos alone destroyed the original atmosphere of the room.

Qi Fandong had already made tea, and I sat across from him. The two of them raised their teacups and each took a sip. Qi Fandong looked at me with a half-smile, and said with emotion: "Secretary Ye is really impressive, only ten In a few days, things have changed in Lingtai. Secretary Ye, at only twenty-seven years old, is already a dignified secretary of the county party committee, and at a time when the limelight is at its peak, Secretary Wan... is really amazing, amazing."

I smiled slightly, put down the tea cup, shook my head slightly and said, "Mr. Qi, as the secretary of the county party committee, I still have to rely on you big bosses for food!"

Qi Fandong'Oh! ’ He made a sound, showing an expression of attentiveness, and looked at me opposite with interest.

I stared into his eyes and said word by word: "Mr. Qi, you made a mistake at the beginning. If you had put the project in our Lingtai County earlier, wouldn't we have been cooperating together earlier! And the rumors outside are not true. "Although Secretary Wan made a mistake and was criticized by the leader, it has nothing to do with me."

Qi Fandong smiled faintly, waved his hand and said: "Secretary Ye, there are no outsiders here, so you don't have to be humble. Secretary Ye is brave, resourceful and decisive in killing. Looking at Jiangzhou Province, such new political figures are rare. , given time, great achievements will be made, and the future is limitless."

I smiled, picked up the purple clay pot, poured a cup of tea, and said calmly: "Mr. Qi, you, a business elite in Yuzhou, seem to be very concerned about what happens in the officialdom."

Qi Fandong looked at the faint mist rising from the purple clay pot, waved his hand slightly and said: "Secretary Ye, since you can enter this room, I will not treat you as an outsider. Doing business in the country cannot only be done in business." If you are a businessman, you will fall into the inferior position. Only by knowing the general situation, considering the overall situation, and being political can you truly develop. Throughout the dynasties, all businessmen who have made a difference cannot do without the help of officials. In the shopping malls, there are intrigues, intrigues, and many calculations. , if it were placed in the officialdom, it would be a bit unworthy of mentioning. The way I, Qi, do business is to cooperate more with the elites in the officialdom, so that everyone can make a fortune together."

I looked at him deeply, touched the tea cup and said in deep thought: "Mr. Qi, with all due respect, the reason why your Yinhu Group has suffered losses abroad is because you are always used to taking shortcuts at home, but things have changed outside. The rules of the game, so you can’t adapt to competition. To run a business, you still need to do a solid job in your internal skills. Getting too close to officials is not necessarily a good thing. There are many examples of city gates catching fire and affecting Chiyu. Mr. Qi also Be careful."

Qi Fandong was startled for a moment, stood up thoughtfully, moved a few steps in the living room with a cane, and said softly: "Secretary Ye, what you said makes some sense, but the roads we have walked are separated by lines like mountains. Different, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the other party. I have received the sentence you asked Team Leader Li to forward to me. I invite you here this time just because I want to make friends with you. In the future, we will complement each other's strengths and work together. Development, I have many friends in the political and business circles in Jiangzhou Province. If I have the opportunity in the future, I can introduce you to them. Whether it is doing business or being an official, the bigger the circle, the better!

I still say that in China, business can be combined with sports and culture, but the most important thing is to combine with politics. Enterprises without political roots cannot become big. Even if they become big, they still have to be combined with politics. You I haven’t seen national leaders sometimes bring a large number of entrepreneurs with them when they visit abroad? To put it bluntly, businessmen have always had to have a good relationship with officials. This principle has not changed for thousands of years, and it will not change in the future. "

I smiled noncommittally, nodded and said: "Mr. Qi, I have long known that you are a powerful figure in Yuzhou. You are a person with a lot of stories. I have heard some of them before. It is said that Mr. Qi used to be in the stock market. You have made many good friends, and some officials have even made a lot of money because of the inside information you gave. They will definitely support Mr. Qi's career, but I have already said that as long as the Lingtai County must follow the rules. It is impossible to expect me to sacrifice the interests of Lingtai County to benefit the Yinhu Group. Even if the gods in the photo come down, I will not compromise. "

Qi Fandong was slightly startled. He looked at the several provincial party committee leaders in the painting, smiled, shook his head, and waved his hand: "Secretary Ye, you misunderstood. I will not use power to overwhelm others. In officialdom, it is most taboo to take the top. I, Qi, understand this rule when someone comes to threaten you. We are only talking about friendship today, not business."

I smiled coldly, took a sip of tea leisurely, and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. I have no other advantages. I am just not afraid of pressure. I want to do something practical in Lingtai. If Mr. Qi can have the foresight Zhiming, then we can work together for a win-win situation. You will make a fortune, and the economic development of Lingtai County will also be accelerated. This is a great thing. If you always want to take advantage of loopholes, there is no need to waste your time. Mr. Qi is very busy. I'm also very busy, so it's impossible to just talk about friendship. I'm here today just to talk about business. If we can't agree on investment, I'll just turn around and leave so as not to waste Mr. Qi's time."

Qi Fandong waved his hand, walked to a row of bookshelves, picked up a scroll, walked back slowly, sat down with a smile, handed the scroll into my hand, and said softly: "Secretary Ye, don't worry. , Let’s put the business matters aside for the weekend. Let’s relax for a while. I’m an old man and I’m always busy with business, so my body can’t bear it. I got a painting some time ago, and I asked Secretary Ye to appreciate it.”

I took the scroll and slowly opened it, only to see that it was an ink landscape painting. The composition was compelling, the brushwork was rigorous, and the artistic conception was clear and far-reaching, which was quite typical of everyone.

I lowered my head and looked at the signature. When I saw the word 'Wanlou', I smiled and said: "It is indeed a good painting, so grand. It turns out to be Mr. Gu's work. Mr. Qi has some tricks. Mr. Gu's current works are very good." It's very popular, but it's a pity that he has been in poor health in recent years and rarely paints anymore."

Qi Fandong smiled and said: "Secretary Ye, Mr. Gu is not necessarily in poor health. The fewer paintings a painter has, the more valuable they are, and the more they are, the less precious they are. Since Mr. Gu announced that he would stop painting, the prices of his paintings have continued to rise. The most famous painting, "Moon Moon over a Jade Pot", sold for a high price of RMB 3.8 million at Sotheby's Spring in Hong Kong. In my opinion, this is also a very smart business practice."

I smiled and said nothing. My eyes lingered among the strange rocks and trees, the ink clouds and smoke, and I really felt relaxed and happy. Mr. Gu was once a visiting professor at Jiang University, and there is also a collection of his works in the library of Jiang University. This work is rarely exhibited to the outside world. It is only hung up when important guests come to visit. It is also treasured like a treasure. However, I did not expect that his paintings would be so valuable. It seems that although Chinese paintings are not as valuable as Oil paintings are common, but they are still extremely marketable.

Qi Fandong touched the teacup, took a sip of tea, and continued: "Mr. Gu is a leading figure in the calligraphy and painting art world in Jiangzhou. His paintings have always been difficult to obtain. I was fortunate enough to obtain this early painting from him through a friend. It is said that the collection value of the work is very high. If Secretary Ye likes it, I can lend it to you by borrowing flowers and offering it to Buddha."

I shook my head, slowly closed the scroll, put it in his hand, and sighed: "Mr. Qi, in order to have a peaceful sleep every day, don't give me any more problems. If you really spend a lot of money, We are so generous and want to build two Hope Primary Schools in Lingtai County. As for the agreement reached in the last negotiation, I will take a step back and give you some policies. This is already the bottom line and we cannot let go any more."

Qi Fandong touched his chin and looked at me for a long time, nodded and said: "Secretary Ye, you are a good official. Let's do this. We will sign the contract according to the agreement given by Wan Chaoyang. I will build two Hope Primary Schools in Lingtai County. In addition, How about spending 300,000 yuan every year as a special fund to support your Lingtai County’s infrastructure construction?”

I smiled, waved my hand slightly and said, "Mr. Qi, then we can't continue talking. Please forgive me for not being able to accompany you because I have something to do."

After I finished speaking, I stood up and walked slowly out the door. Qi Fandong sighed, chased me from behind, and said with a wry smile: "Secretary Ye, please stay, then I will do what you want, but Construction must start in March next year without delay. Foreign parties are urging us urgently, and the company is under great pressure."

I stopped, turned around, handed over my hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Qi, that's great. I wish us a happy cooperation."

Qi Fandong shook hands helplessly and sighed: "Secretary Ye, I might as well tell you the truth. Originally, I planned to send people to go to other places, but the foreign party refused, so I had to compromise with you."
