He Keng arrived at just the right time.

At this moment, Lu Weimin really felt a little bored.

He analyzed it himself and found several reasons.

First, he was not familiar with the publicity business, so he was not interested. The work that Futou Tian Weidong was doing at that time was arranged by him, which actually squeezed out the deputy county deputy who was supposed to be in charge of culture, education and health at that time.

The work of Chang Xiong Jinghui, Executive Deputy County Magistrate Pu Yan and Deputy Secretary Qiao Xiaoyang.

As for the real job of publicity, Lu Weimin was not familiar with it.

In fact, Lu Weimin didn't have much interest in getting familiar with it. He felt that as the Minister of Propaganda, he did not necessarily need to be familiar with all the publicity business. In one sentence, he could just grasp a few key points.

Secondly, he was not familiar with the situation in Songzhou, and there were no two people he could trust. Although Shen Zilie was relatively friendly to him, Lu Weimin felt that Shang Quanzhi still had some doubts about him, while Chen Changjun and Tong Yunsong both had doubts about him.

He doesn't catch a cold very much, which makes him very depressed.

Third, he is in an awkward position, and it is difficult for him to show off his skills. The Propaganda Department is the mouthpiece, in charge of public opinion, but in fact the work of several departments guided by the Propaganda Mouth, such as culture, radio and television, education, and sports,

They are either departments of the municipal government or departments directly under the municipal government. If we put aside the particularity of China's domestic political system, these departments should be said to only accept the leadership of the municipal government. As the department of the Party Committee in charge of public opinion propaganda, the Propaganda Department has

These departments have guidance rights and obligations.

As the director of the Municipal Party Committee Office, Yang Dajin has a lot of things to do and is unlikely to come to accompany Lu Weimin often. Xiao Ying does not have a heavy workload, but as a young single woman who comes from Fengzhou, she has to avoid the melon fields and plums.

Ji Wanru was in Songzhou during this period. But for the same reason, before Lu Weimin was familiar with the situation here, Ji Wanru also knew that she had to avoid suspicion when she should.

He Keng's Mercedes-Benz S560 drove directly into the municipal party committee compound and met Lu Weimin at the foyer.

Even in a so-called old city with rich heritage like Songzhou, Mercedes-Benz S560 is a rare existence.

He Keng's Mercedes-Benz has a Beijing license plate, which makes it even more impressive.

There are many Japanese and Korean cars in Songzhou. Lu Weimin knew at a glance that most of these cars came through smuggling channels. There were particularly many with Cantonese, Qiong, and Fujian license plates. Of course, many of them were already in Changzhou.

bThe Songzhou license plate should have been transferred through various channels.

The Hainan car smuggling case in the mid-1980s caused a large number of Hainan smuggled cars to enter the mainland. The mid-1980s happened to be the era when Songzhou's economic situation was the best, so many smuggled cars came in. Later, from the late 1980s to the

Nowadays, the smuggling trend is still quite rampant, which also makes the number of smuggled cars in Songzhou quite large.

For many people, a car means face. Ma Deming and Wang Zongyi were double-regulated, but the car they left behind was not. The car Ma Deming left behind was a Nissan Duke. The condition was not bad, and it was purchased from the city government.

It was brought here, and Wang Zongyi’s car was a rare Ford Tianba.

Ma Deming and Wang Zongyi were double-crossed, and their two cars were left in the parking lot behind the municipal party committee compound. As for the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department and the Lecturer's Group, there were only four cars in total. In addition to a Toyota bread, that was

An Audi 100 that the former two ministers, Gu Jingen, had ridden in, and a somewhat old Honda Civic. Together with a Poussin, they complete the current transportation configuration of the Propaganda Department.

Audi and Civic have become the daily cars of the three deputy ministers. Of course, when there is no car to send to the office, Audi and Civic will also be sent out. But in normal times, you have to find opportunities to use cars in the office, and now suddenly there are two more cars.

The car came out. It seemed that the ministry suddenly became more comfortable with cars, especially

Especially when the new minister did not know where he got a Mitsubishi off-road vehicle as his own car. The Duke was originally intended for Lu Wei for civilian use, and the Ford Tianba can naturally be used as a non-stationary vehicle for the three deputy ministers.

If you use a car, then the internal car is barely enough.

Lu Weimin took a ride in the Duke King that Ma Deming left behind. The car was in good condition. Shi Desheng also said that the car was good. Lu Weimin didn't want to take this car at first, but he also knew that he wouldn't take it, and neither would most of the other people in the car.

It was easy to ride, but it was abandoned, so after thinking about it, Lu Weimin put the Mitsubishi he brought here and put it in the Propaganda Department office, and he took this Duke King instead.

There was also a Mercedes-Benz S300 outside the gate. When the Mercedes-Benz S560 that picked up Lu Weimin came out, the S300 drove ahead of time, allowing He Keng's car to follow it into Songhe Avenue.

"Brother Keng, why are you so arrogant?" Lu Weimin glanced at He Keng sitting beside him and said with a slight smile.

"Didn't you sound so miserable on the phone? Like a frustrated little daughter-in-law, you are so stretched that you are about to go out to beg. In this land of Songzhou, the more you maintain such a low-key posture, the more you will be looked down upon.

, the easier it is to be suppressed." He Keng shook his head.

Lu Weimin frowned, "Why do you say that, Brother Keng?"

"You don't understand Songzhou, Songzhou in your heart. I used to have a friend from Songzhou. He summed up the people in Songzhou very straightforwardly and profoundly, including vanity, materialism, snobbery, reality, so-called family affection and loyalty,

They can't compete with real interests, good face, and love of vanity, especially as Songzhou's development has lagged behind in recent years, this aspect has become more prominent. Well, worship of the strong and money worship are particularly strong." He Keng said lightly:

"I have also had some dealings with Songzhou. I have to say that my friend's analysis and evaluation are very accurate. He said that this is his hometown. He did not want to belittle himself so much. In fact, before the mid-1980s, Songzhou

The people have a generous and loyal atmosphere, but since the mid-1980s, the atmosphere of flashy materialism has become stronger. The pursuit of fame and fortune, coupled with the economic downturn, has made this atmosphere even stronger, so he also feels sad."

Lu Weimin was thoughtful.

"Okay, don't think so much. I'm not here specifically to support you, it's just a casual thing." He Keng saw the thoughtful expression on Lu Weimin's face and laughed, "Songzhou is a

It’s a great place with vast territory and abundant resources. If you can create a world here like you did in Shuangfeng and Futou, I will truly admit that you are a genius.”

"Haha, Brother Keng, is it so important to be a genius or not? Do I need to prove myself in this way?" Lu Weimin laughed dumbly, "Don't use provocation. I know what I should do, but,

I have to admit that the position of Minister of Propaganda is a big challenge for me, especially when you said that Songzhou has such a unique and realistic environment. It is difficult for a clever woman to make a meal without rice. Songzhou's finances are very difficult.

It’s not easy to achieve something.”

"I believe it won't be difficult for you. Well, if it really doesn't work, your brother Keng can also support you." He Keng smiled.

"Okay, I accept Brother Keng's wishes. If it's a matter of win-win cooperation, I won't reject it. If Brother Keng is to spend money on me to support the scene, I think it's unnecessary." Lu Weimin is quite good in this regard.

Lu Weimin has no reason to look for He Keng because he is tough and really wants to spend money to support the scene. Lu Zhihua, who is at home with a huge amount of money and is resting, should be a more suitable candidate.

The two Mercedes-Benz quickly arrived at the Universal Hotel.

Universal Hotel has the shortest history among the top hotels in Songzhou, but it is the largest. However, because of its large scale, its management is somewhat uneven. It does a good job in room service and catering, but it does a good job in outsourcing entertainment.

Together they look a bit like a mixed bag.

When the Mercedes-Benz drove into the Universal Hotel, another Lexus LS400 with a Fengzhou license plate also drove in quickly.

Before Lu Weimin had time to get out of the car, the Lexus 400 had stopped close behind Lu Weimin.

Two Mercedes-Benz and a Lexus 400, which is now quite fashionable in China, were parked in the front lobby of the Universal Hotel, which also attracted the attention of some surrounding guests.

The Mercedes-Benz has the Beijing and Chang A license plates, and the Lexus 400, although it has the Chang M Fengzhou license plate, is still a Lexus. Although there are many Japanese cars in Songzhou, most of them are from the mid-to-late 1980s to the early 1990s.

There are many old-fashioned Japanese cars, such as Crown, Duke, Accord, and Bluebird. Lexus, which represents luxury cars, is also rare.

"Secretary Lu!"

As soon as Lu Weimin got out of the car, a man who had already gotten out of the back seat of the Lexus came to Lu Weimin's side in one quick step.

"Hey, Lao Kang, long time no see, have you changed cars?" Lu Weimin's face showed a half-smile expression, "Lingzhi 400, Lao Kang, I said you are in your forties or fifties, why are you still following the fashion like a young man?

Ah? Give a car like Lexus to your son. You are already a famous big boss. Don’t lose your status by riding in this car. Look at Mr. He. After all, you are also a well-known person in Fengzhou. Don’t lose your status in Fengzhou.

Human face.”

Kang Mingde didn't feel dissatisfied at all, and said happily: "Secretary Lu is right in his criticism. I also feel that it is a bit of a shame to ride in this little Japanese car. My son is always tinkering with me and saying how luxurious this car is.

, I also got one back as soon as my head got hot. I still have to get two Mercedes-Benz or Lincolns back tomorrow. My friend in Changzhou said that he has a large-scale Lincoln there, which is longer and more domineering. I plan to get one.

Come try it out."

"Well, that's pretty much it. At your age, you just want to be safe and stylish when riding in a car. Why are you following the fashion?" Lu Weimin smiled and joked a few more words.

He Keng also exchanged pleasantries with Kang Mingde. He Keng's Changnan Shangri-La was contracted and constructed by Kang Mingde's Minde Construction. Construction is now in full swing. The two of them can be regarded as partners of Party A and Party B.

As soon as Lu Weimin got out of the Mercedes-Benz, someone had already noticed him. The three people chatting and laughing in front of the door, and Natasha with blond hair standing aside alertly and calmly, immediately attracted the attention of countless people.
