King of Industry

  Chapter 127 A hero born a boy

  The person from the Gusu Mechanical Industry Committee is a low-ranking deputy director named Hu Haitao.

  When meeting with the immediate leader, Director Hu was naturally extremely respectful. He warmly invited Wang Ziqing and Zhao Guoyang to sit down at the teahouse in the guest house, and then chatted with them.

   "Xiao Hu, go and do your work, don't call us." After taking a sip of tea, Wang Ziqing said with a smile.

The cautious Hu Haitao thought that Director Wang was dissatisfied with the Gusu Machinery Works Committee for only sending him to receive him, so he hurriedly explained: "Director Wang, this is the situation. Senior official Zhuo just arrived in Gusu this morning. Accompany him to investigate several enterprises in the city..."

   "Hey, Xiao Hu, I know all about this. I came here because I made an appointment with Senior Official Zhuo. He will come over after his inspection in the morning..." Wang Ziqing waved his hand and said.

  Hearing this, Hu Haitao finally suddenly realized.

  Actually, both he and Mo Xiangming, Director of Gusu Machinery Industry Committee, knew about Director Wang going to SJ City to participate in this auto exhibition.

   It's just that the exhibition hasn't ended yet, Director Wang suddenly appeared in Gusu, which made him a little confused.

   Now that Wang Ziqing explained, Hu Haitao understood. Presumably, this is because Zhuo Gaoguan wanted to hear Director Wang's report on the Songjiang Automobile Exhibition.

   Having figured out the cause and effect, Hu Haitao would naturally not hang on to leave, so as not to be annoying. He exchanged pleasantries with Wang Ziqing, then left with a smile.

   Before leaving, Hu Haitao did not forget to tell the manager of the guest house to greet the distinguished guests well.

  …

   Zhao Guoyang and Wang Ziqing waited for more than an hour.

  At noon, Wang Ziqing and Zhao Guoyang were discussing the future development direction of the Jinling Automobile Factory, and several cars cheered outside the guest house.

  Looking at this posture, Wang Ziqing knew that the high-ranking official Zhuo should have arrived. He nodded with Zhao Guoyang quickly, and stood up to welcome him out.

   After coming out of the teahouse, Wang Ziqing strode ahead, followed by Zhao Guoyang.

   As soon as I entered the lobby of the guest house, a large group of people came in front of me.

   Surrounded by the crowd first, was a middle-aged man with meticulously combed hair. He was tall and had a standard Chinese character face. He looked quite imposing.

  Wang Ziqing cast a glance at Zhao Guoyang, and quickly walked up to him.

The person on the opposite side obviously saw Wang Ziqing, and before he could speak, the imposing leader said loudly: "Ziqing, are you in a hurry? There is no way, Comrade Jianjun and Comrade Ma Bin are too enthusiastic. Gusu Urban Construction Group stayed a little longer..."

   "No hurry, no hurry, Gaoguan Zhuo, hello!" Wang Ziqing stepped forward, holding Gaoguan Zhuo's hand tightly with both hands.

  The two people who accompanied Senior Official Zhuo were Xu Jianjun, a senior official of Gusu City, and Ma Bin, the mayor of Gusu City.

   Seeing Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin shaking hands with Wang Ziqing politely one by one, Zhao Guoyang behind him didn't feel any surprise.

  In the early 1990s, Gusu City’s economy had not yet started to take off rapidly, and the city’s political status had not yet been revealed. Naturally, senior city officials were not included in the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, and they were only department-level cadres.

  Although Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin's political status in the province must be higher than that of Wang Ziqing, they basically maintain a balance between them.

  Wang Ziqing exchanged pleasantries with Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin, and then waved to Zhao Guoyang behind him.

   "Senior officer Zhuo, he is Xiao Zhao from Ninghai Hongda Machinery Factory, Zhao Guoyang." Wang Ziqing introduced to Zhuo Qingfeng.

  Zhao Guoyang was hesitating whether he should shake hands with Gaoguan Zhuo, but Zhuo Qingfeng who was opposite him had already extended his hand to him with a smile.

   "Comrade Xiao Zhao, that's right, it really is a boy born from a hero!" Zhuo Qingfeng looked at the young man in front of him and said in admiration.

  Zhao Guoyang was a little confused by Zhuo Qingfeng's words, and he didn't dare to ask rashly, so he could only shake hands and stand aside obediently.

  Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin felt a little puzzled when they saw that senior official Zhuo attached so much importance to the young man in front of him.

Seeing the person he wanted to see, Zhuo Qingfeng was also in a good mood, he turned his head and said to Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin: "Jianjun, Ma Bin, let everyone go back, I will have a treat with Ziqing and Xiao Zhao." Lunch, and I have to go to SJ City in a while."

   "Yes, yes, yes!" Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin exchanged glances, and Ma Bin quickly dismissed the cadres following behind him.

  Xu Jianjun personally led the way and brought Zhuo Qingfeng and Wang Ziqing to the VIP room of the guest house.

   After everyone sat down one by one, Zhuo Qingfeng introduced to Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin who came in a hurry: "Jianjun, Ma Bin, let me introduce you, Xiao Zhao, Zhao Guoyang."

   "Hello Xu Shu*, Mayor Ma!" Zhao Guoyang stood up and greeted the two leaders without being humble or overbearing.

   "Comrade Xiao Zhao, hello, hello!" Xu Jianjun didn't understand the specific identity of Zhao Guoyang, and it was difficult to ask questions, which was really embarrassing.

Over there, Wang Ziqing saw Secretary Xu Shu*'s restraint, so he smiled and said: "Secretary Xu Shu*, you may not be familiar with Xiao Zhao, he is the technical section chief of a state-owned enterprise in Ninghai City. This time, he is accompanying me to SJ The city is attending that auto show."

   "Oh, I remembered what Director Wang said. Is it the Songjiang International Automobile Exhibition?" Ma Bin on the side nodded repeatedly.

   "SJ City also sent an invitation letter to our Gusu City. However, several comrades from the city government and I are very busy, so we really don't have time to go. I can only say sorry to the comrades in SJ City."

  Hearing what Ma Bin said, Xu Jianjun also remembered this matter.

   There is just one thing that he still doesn't quite understand, why Wang Ziqing brought this little-known Xiao Zhao to this auto show.

  In the small place of Ninghai City, it seems that there are no state-owned enterprises related to automobiles, right?

  Xu Jianjun's doubts were quickly resolved by Zhuo Qingfeng.

   Senior official Zhuo is young and vigorous, and he is a well-known young cadre in the province. Moreover, because he is in charge of industry, he attaches great importance to Zhao Guoyang, a technical talent.

   After eating a few mouthfuls of food, Zhuo Qingfeng and Zhao Guoyang chatted about some industrial matters.

  On the phone yesterday, Wang Ziqing had already reported to him in detail how much the State Machine Works Committee and SJ City attached importance to Zhao Guoyang.

  Although Zhuo Qingfeng believed in Zhao Guoyang's ability, he always had to find out for himself, so that he could feel at ease in his heart.

  After all, Zhuo Qingfeng has already made up his mind to reuse this Zhao Guoyang.

  Since this is the case, it is still necessary to have a comprehensive understanding of his abilities.

  Some of the questions asked by senior officials Zhuo are some prominent problems and major contradictions in the development of the country's heavy industry in the 1990s. Zhao Guoyang has his own deep understanding and analysis of these problems.

   Needless to say, his answer naturally made Senior Official Zhuo very satisfied.

  When Zhao Guoyang answered Zhuo Gao's official words, Xu Jianjun and Ma Bin exchanged eyes from time to time, and both of them saw a look of surprise in each other's eyes.

   Zhao Guoyang's excellence was beyond their expectations.
