"Mr. Du, even if you don't give me face, you have to give Lao Liu some face. He is my old friend for many years. I must give me an interview tomorrow, okay?"

"Who dares not give reporter Feng Da’s face? You will be the first to ask the symposium tomorrow morning. How about it?"

"It's so refreshing! I'll use Coke instead of wine, and I'll do it first. Mr. Du, you can do it as you please."

"Xiao Du, last time you were in Beijing, I personally agreed to our editor-in-chief and said that you would write a few popular science articles about the Internet. You see, it's the end of the month, is it time to start writing? Oh no, it should be typing on the keyboard, typing on the keyboard, haha."

"The manuscript has been written. Editor Wei will go to my office to get it tomorrow and help me review it to see if there are any mistakes or omissions."

"Yes, yes, I'll go there early tomorrow morning."

With the help of Liu Yunlai, Du Qiu established a good relationship with many influential media in China. He held a glass of orange juice and greeted the reporters on 16 tables one by one. He was warmly welcomed. He went to the end for more than 20 minutes before he left.

The last table was where Du Chunhua was. Du Qiu clinked glasses with Sister Wang from CCTV's "Oriental Time and Space" column, drank the orange juice in one go, and then said with a smile: "Sister Wang, this is my first time on TV. You have to take a good shot for me tomorrow, otherwise you will not be able to marry in the future."

"Don't worry, Du Qiu, with your appearance and figure, even if a child holds a home camera, he can still take pictures of beautiful photos. Besides, we professional photographers on TV stations, I guess, after the program is broadcast, your company will be overwhelmed by courtship letters sent from all over the country."

"That's good, my sister is worried that I can't find a wife."

"Go, don't make fun of me!" Du Chunhua took half a bowl of three fresh pot crumbs and handed them to Du Qiu, and said, "Eat some to cushion your stomach, and then hurry up and go to the second floor. Those foreigners are still waiting for you."

"Du Qiu, we just praised you for your patriotism, love for your family, and not for foreigners. As a result, you are so good that you only say a few polite words with us, and then let go and accompany the foreigners?" Sister Wang is a man who loves to do things. He pointed to a few unmarried young reporters on the table and joked: "These are all star-chasers who have admired you for a long time. At least they have a drink with them?"

"That's right, Boss Du, we sisters are thinking about you every day and have long been looking forward to having a glass of wine with you. As a result, you only drank half a glass of orange juice, which disappointed us so much."

"Orange juice is OK, but you can't be perfunctory. You have to drink it one by one, and you have to drink it for a drink!"

After being prompted by Du Chunhua, Dai Yi put down her worries and became smarter. Seeing that the female reporters were not shy at all, they took the initiative to flatter them. While helping to pour orange juice, she explained: "I tell you, Mr. Du does not admire foreign countries. He prepared Moutai for our domestic reporters, and rice wine for foreign reporters, which is only 30 yuan a bottle."

"Oh, Du Qiu is so good. He knows that his elbow is turning in, so he has to drink more for this."

"It's okay to drink orange juice, but don't report it, otherwise you will be scolded for not knowing how to treat guests and lose the face of Chinese people." Du Qiu finished the pot crumbs, held the orange juice and clinked glasses with several female reporters, and said with a smile: "I know that all of you are famous flowers and have a fate with me. But if you have any beautiful best friends, or know beautiful female singers and female movie stars, don't forget to introduce them to me."

"Drink quickly, leave quickly after drinking, you will know nonsense, such as female singers and actresses, who are crazy dreams." Du Chunhua raised his hand and knocked on Du Qiu's forehead, urging: "It's already 6:30, hurry up and go upstairs. Secretary Zhong repeatedly explained that diplomacy is nothing small. If you neglect those foreign journalists and cause trouble, you will have good results!"

Du Qiu knew that his mother was reminding him not to forget the police just now, so after drinking the orange juice, he no longer delayed and left the hall and prepared to go to the second floor to entertain the group of foreign journalists.

Coincidentally, Du Qiu had just walked out of the hall and happened to meet Jiang Danfeng who was driving over. Seeing that she was still wearing the red dress she was the host of ceremonies in the afternoon, she asked, "Is the exchange meeting over Yang Fan over?"

"Just just finished, Mr. Yang invited some netizens who were interested in starting a business or investing to Yuebin Building for dinner." Jiang Danfeng looked tired and his voice was a little hoarse, and he said, "I'll come here to eat whatever I want, and then go to the Grand Theater to see how the concert was prepared."

"Go to eat upstairs with me. It's too noisy downstairs. There are only three people in Aiko Komatsu's private room, which is very quiet."

"OK."

Jiang Danfeng held Du Qiu's arm and leaned his head on his shoulder. After walking a few steps weakly, he suddenly remembered something, so he stood up straight, took out a brown wallet from his bag, and said to Dai Yi who was following behind: "A foreigner lost his wallet in the afternoon. Cai Xinghuo found it and asked me to bring it over. You can take it to others."

Du Qiu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Where did you find it?"

"In a bathroom in the academic lecture hall, the cleaner found it next to the pool while sweeping the floor."

Dai Yi opened her wallet and looked at it. In addition to the bank card and about 100 yuan change, there were also several English business cards printed on the workplace. She curled her lips and said childishly: "It turned out to be a reporter from the Asian version of the Wall Street Journal. No wonder those police officers are so enthusiastic."

"What police officer?"

Du Qiu explained briefly while going upstairs. After saying that, he ordered: "You can ask Cai Xinghuo tomorrow to see if the policeman was deliberately looking for trouble or was unintentional."

"How could it be an unintentional mistake? They have pinched the time to search, obviously wanting to get close to you, otherwise Dai Yi's small body can block those policemen who are like wolves and tigers?" Jiang Danfeng's emotional intelligence was amazing. After hearing a few words, he probably heard the trick, sneered, and said, "It's a pity that his eyes are too shallow. Because of the small mistake, he flattered and slapped the horse. I'll deal with this matter. When I figured out the details, I'll find someone to hit him."

"Sister Danfeng, Sister Chunhua just gave them two boxes of Moutai, saying that if you can do it, don't offend people, don't offend them."

Jiang Danfeng turned around at the entrance of the stairs on the second floor, lit Dai Yi's forehead from a high point, and said, "Stupid! Sister Chunhua is a polite first and then a soldier. If she doesn't do that, what if the police get angry and make trouble? So use soft words to stabilize the person first and wait until the Internet conference is over before dealing with him. Remember, if no one offends, then anyone dares to do whatever he wants to do on your head."

Because they are all fresh graduates and they all start as secretary, Dai Yi has always been competing with Jiang Danfeng. At this time, she was guided by her, and she was stunned in an instant. She felt that her IQ and EQ were far inferior to Jiang Danfeng, and competing with her was just a joke. At the same time, she regretted that she was too soft before, and was randomly controlled by others, and made many wrong life choices.

Du Qiu was also ashamed of herself. Seeing Dai Yi holding the stairs and holding the handle, she looked dazed and thought she was tired. She said, "Dai Yi, give me your wallet. You and Danfeng go to the Japanese reporter's private room for a while. I will say hello to the reporters from the United States and come soon."

"Ah? OK, Mr. Du."

Chen Dayou fooled 11 American journalists to Yuncheng. In order to show his importance, the province and the city sent several officials from the propaganda department to accompany him. In addition, Liu Yunlai and Zhou Yuan who rushed back from Silicon Valley temporarily, there were 18 people, which happened to be arranged in a large private room with two dining tables.

China and the United States have different social cultures and different media business models. Du Qiu has no strong desire to be on the cover and headlines, so he is not as enthusiastic as downstairs. He just deals with it for a while, made an appointment for the time and content arrangement of the interview, and then handed over the scene to Liu Yunlai and Zhou Yuan.

When he was out, a city official followed him out and asked with a smirk: "Mr. Du, I heard that some small storm happened downstairs just now?"

"Who did you hear?"

"The waiter said." The man looked around and said mysteriously: "The policeman in charge is Mayor Ma's cousin. He is young and energetic and is more rash in his work. Don't be as knowledgeable as him."

Although Du Qiu was not interested in politics, Snapdragon took root in Yuncheng and could not not deal with the government. Therefore, he arranged for Bai Yuquan to be responsible for collecting information in this regard very early. He knew that Mayor Ma was referring to Yuncheng-Committee-Deputy Secretary and Executive Vice Mayor Ma Jun. He is a native of Yuncheng and has been engaged in political and legal work for a long time. He used to be the director of the Municipal Public Security Bureau. He is known for his outstanding ability and tough style, and has extraordinary influence.

Not only that, Du Qiu also knew Ma Jun's future, because this person was the biggest official miracle in Yuncheng since the founding of the People's Republic of China. There were many rumors about him, such as his poor family, no backstage, and no strong diploma, but he was able to rise to the top. In just 13 years, he changed from a small assistant judge to the deputy mayor of a provincial capital city. In 2016, he became the secretary of the provincial party committee of a developed coastal province.

"Mayor Ma's cousin?"

"Yes, this person is named Ruan Hu. He is the only one of Mayor Ma's second aunt's family. I heard that he also likes cars very much. If Mr. Du has time one day, it would be better to go out for a ride. After all, enemies should be resolved rather than to make up." The official seemed to be well informed and whispered: "It's everywhere now that Mayor Ma is rumored that someone is above Mayor Ma, so he deliberately airborne a Mayor Hu to help him get a seat. Mayor Ma is only 40 years old this year, and it's a bit early to be a real mayor. Mayor Hu is already 58 and will definitely retire in the second line in a few years. Once he retires, Mayor Ma will take over. After he becomes the mayor for one term, Secretary Zhong will retire. By this calculation, Yuncheng will be in the Ma family for the next ten years."

"So that's the case, I understand." Du Qiu didn't know the details of this person, so he said perfunctorily: "Thank you for your advice. When the conference is over, I will ask Ruan Hu to come out and have fun."

"Mr. Du is polite. I just came out to have some breath and chat for a few casual words. In fact, even if I don't say these things, Yuquan will report them to you."

It turns out that he is a relative of Bai Yuquan's development, no wonder he is so concerned about it...

This matter is worthy of attention. We must establish a system of dealing with companies and government officials as soon as possible. On the one hand, we must establish a good relationship with officials worthy of investment. On the other hand, we must establish a firewall to prevent us from accidentally getting involved in political storms or anti-corruption cases in the future and suffering from disasters...
