Chapter 794: Progress, mixed joys and sorrows

Bai Zhanmo has been idle for more than a year and has been re-activated. The Fu family has indeed had a great influence in the capital. Bai Zhanmo, who has taken serious punishment, can still return to the government in a low-key manner. Although he is only in the Ministry of Agriculture, it is considered very fast.

Xia Xiangshao was surprised: "Bai Zhanmo seems to be an engineer, but he has nothing to do with genetic engineering in agriculture. He should be a manager."

Zhao Xiaofeng did not hide it: "The director of the Office of the Promotion Group under the Ministry of Agriculture, who is at the level of a department, is equivalent to being demoted. It was the relationship Fu Xianfeng helped him find, otherwise he would have to stay idle for at least two years."

Fu Xianfeng is now idle in Beijing and the deputy provincial-level cadre who was dismissed from office on the spot has a huge impact. He said that it will take at least three years to re-activate it.

"So, is Mr. Zhao's choice contrary to the interests of the Fu family?" Xia Yao understood that since Bai Zhanmo came to the Ministry of Agriculture to promote genetically modified technology, it proved that the Fu family has interests involved. Zhao Xiaofeng's opposition to genetically modified products will inevitably lead to conflicts with the Fu family.

"Hehe." Zhao Xiaofeng smiled awkwardly, "Fu Xianfeng is untrustworthy and cannot be intimate. He and I have settled the accounts and drawn a clear line. Besides, genetically modified technology is a major event that concerns the national economy and people's livelihood. I am a Chinese. I can make a little gray money, but if I have a bad money, I still have my own bottom line. To be honest, Mayor Xia, I think Lang City has a natural advantage and can promote the planting of organic crops, whether it is cotton or wheat, or build a vegetable and meat base, which specializes in supplying high-end places in Beijing, and puts out green and pure natural slogans, and sells high prices that are several times or ten times higher than the market price. Some people also pay."

Zhao Xiaofeng's proposal is indeed good.

As people's pursuit of healthy life increased in later generations, as they realized that the pollution and mutation of greenhouse vegetables became more and more serious, pesticide residues were more and more, and the harm of genetically modified species was gradually accepted, many organic crop plantings emerged in various places, and organic plants and organic meat were also launched on the market one after another and were deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Organic plants are several times higher than ordinary crops, and organic meat is even sold for hundreds of yuan per kilogram, but due to the expansion of the level of high-ranking officials and nobles in China, there is also a large enough market.

At this point, Xia Xiangsai fully understood Zhao Xiaofeng's intention. He took a fancy to Lang City's geographical advantages, which were close to Beijing. At the same time, land and labor were countless times cheaper than Beijing. Investing in organic crops and meat production bases in Lang City was indeed very convenient. However, Fu Family intends to promote genetically modified technology in Lang City, which has an irreconcilable conflict with Zhao Xiaofeng's plan.

Lang City has a lot of fertile land, which can accommodate the construction of the GMO technology promotion base and Zhao Xiaofeng's organic crop production base. From the starting point of Lang City's Party Committee and Municipal Government, of course, they are willing to take root in both companies' investments. But from a commercial perspective, from Zhao Xiaofeng's standpoint, the organic crop and meat production base is built next to the GMO pilot base. He advertises and strives to promote the purity and nature of organic crops, but no one believes it.

Genetically modified and organic crops are two distinct concepts. One is regarded as a flood by the higher people, and the other is considered a symbol of the enjoyment of the privileged class. How can we confuse it? Just like building a sesame oil factory next to a garbage factory, no one can buy the sesame oil. Just the smell of stinky garbage makes people's first impression of the sesame oil factory plummet, and they also want to have a reputation in the market and dream!

Xia Xiang didn't mean that he didn't believe that Zhao Xiaofeng's hatred of genetically modified technology was not based on his original intention, but he did not fully trust him. Now that he knew that Zhao Xiaofeng's interests were focused, he was completely relieved.

People can have friendship, but before establishing friendship, they still have common interests and feel safe.

Xia Xiang finally took the initiative to pick up the tea cup: "I have been drinking tea for a long time, and it seems that I haven't served the food yet. Rose, your hospitality is too light."

Wang Qiangwei also smiled happily: "Where can I dare to serve the dishes without waiting for Mayor Xia's instructions? What's more, it's a private dish specially prepared for you." She bowed slightly, got up and went out, "I'll make arrangements."

It must be admitted that Wang Qiangwei, a mixed-race child, is dignified and generous, and has a beautiful demeanor at a glance, which is no less than Lian Ruohan and Mei Xiaolin - a kind of charm that mixes traditional virtues and aristocratic temperament, can easily make men with great power and wealth feel conquered.

Some men like to conquer female stars, but most of them have value that can be measured. Under power, they are basically easy to capture. Some men like to conquer female athletes. In comparison, the highlights of female athletes are more lasting. But higher-level men like to conquer socialites.

A celebrity is more innocent than a female star and a nobler family than a female athlete. Most of them are famous families, with status and status. In addition, they have grown up in a prestigious family since childhood, so they are more cultivated and tasted. If they study in Europe and live for more than ten years, and are more involved in the so-called aristocratic temperament, it will be easier to inspire the desire for conquest of high-level men.

The nobler, more dignified, and more romantic a woman will be, the higher her value will be.

Wang Qiangwei was well aware of the three flavors, and her every move made Xia Xiang feel rippled when she saw it, and she was almost impressed by her elegance and quietness.

The famous socialite in the city is indeed well-known.

Wang Qiangweiming went out to arrange meals, but in fact he intended to leave room for Xia Xiang and Zhao Xiaofeng.

As soon as Wang Qiangwei left, Zhao Xiaofeng's sitting posture became much more casual. After relaxing, she shook her head and smiled: "It's so stressful to be with this woman. She is too dignified, and every move makes people feel inexplicably uneasy. Mayor Xia, what do you think?"

Xia Xiang didn't feel that Wang Qiangwei brought him much pressure. Perhaps deep in his heart, he never had any inappropriate thoughts about Wang Qiangwei. As the saying goes, no desire is hard.

However, Xia Xiang did not answer Zhao Xiaofeng's question, but smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao wants me to stop the promotion of genetically modified technology. I am also willing but not strong enough. The Municipal Party Committee is weak and has no allies."

Zhao Xiaofeng heard what Xia Xiang meant and smiled: "I am only responsible for providing one information. How to do it depends on you - Zhang Yingji can cooperate with you in the issue of genetically modified technology."

Xia Xiang smiled knowingly, and with the limited support of Deputy Secretary Yingji, he also made him feel much more relieved.

He must be clear about the position of each Standing Committee member in order to take advantage of the genetically modified problem, open up the situation in Langshi and take the first key step. Otherwise, even if he tried his best to oppose it, it would be useless to have a sense of righteous indignation. Political matters, passion and impulse will never solve the problem.

To solve the problem, you must find alliances and take necessary measures. In fact, both at home and abroad, under major interests, you will do everything. Sometimes, to put it bluntly, just like doing business. While paying attention to strategies, you also need a bargaining process.

As for why Zhao Xiaofeng wanted to cooperate with Wang Qiangwei, whether he was also one of the conquered people under Wang Qiangwei's skirt, Xia Xiang didn't want to think too much. One thing he could guess was that the guests who came and went to Wang Qiangwei's No. 9 Mansion were either official or expensive, and they were particularly particular about food. If Langshi became a production base for genetically modified crops, the impact on No. 9 Mansion would be fatal.

She and Zhao Xiaofeng also have common interests. If Zhao Xiaofeng's organic production base is built, the No. 9 Mansion can also get the moon first in the near-month building.

"Since it's cooperation, I must be very sincere. Mayor Xia doesn't have to doubt my intentions." Zhao Xiaofeng emphasized again, "My principle in dealing with people is to talk about interests first. If you have interests, you will make friends. As long as Mayor Xia can stop the Ministry of Agriculture's plan and promote the completion of the organic production base, I will pay you 10% of the benefits after the matter is completed. Of course, whether it is successful or not, a diamond card from No. 9 Mansion will be presented now."

Xia Xiang waved his hand: "Not to talk about the 10% of the benefits now. It's too early to say that the diamond card is good, so I accepted it with a smile. Thank you Mr. Zhao and Mr. Wang for your kindness. No. 9 Mansion is good, it is a good place for vacation and leisure."

"Hehehehe." Zhao Xiaofeng smiled ambiguously, "The beauty of it cannot be fully understood in a short time. The No. 9 Mansion is comparable to the heaven and earth. Of course, the biggest beauty is Wang Qiangwei, but she looks quiet and sloppy, which is really difficult to deal with. Don't blame me for not reminding you, Mayor Xia, if you want to pick flowers, be careful not to prick her."

Xia Xiang shook his head and smiled: "Mr. Zhao, don't talk about the wind and moon, just politics."

Zhao Xiaofeng was also interesting and slapped his thigh: "Okay, I will appreciate your personality of not pretending to be artificial. Today I had a good talk, so I will give Mayor Xia a good message - Oh, Chen and the Mei family have many interests in common, he has several industries under his jurisdiction, and the Mei family has shares, and Oh, Chen is also a supporter of the promotion of genetically modified technology."

Is it involved in the Mei family again?

Fortunately, Xia Xiang, when someone else came to Lang City, he wanted to open up the situation. When he heard that someone had a background of the vice premier and someone had a background of four major families, he would probably be so scared that he didn't dare to do anything, and he was obediently surviving his experience.

What shocked Xia Xiang even more was that Zhao Xiaofeng said immediately: "Don't blame me for not reminding you, Mayor Xia, anyway, I'm talking about ugly things ahead. If you really oppose GM promotion, just go all the way to the dark, I will also give you support within your ability. Also, you should be a friend, and you should work hard and give others a lot, without any words. If you can't withstand the pressure and retreat in the middle, don't blame me for turning against others!"

Zhao Xiaofeng's words were not nice and could even be said to be threatening, but Xia Xiang was not angry because he knew that the reason why Zhao Xiaofeng said it carefully was indeed a matter of great importance and would definitely face tremendous pressure. Like the Siniu Group incident, it touched the interests of the entire family and the group.

But Xia Xiang is Xia Xiang. In the process of fighting with Fu Xianfeng, he never thought of retreating? In the planning of the Siniu Group incident, he did not worry about being settled by the Fu family in the future? Xia Xiang sometimes uses bureaucratic means and sometimes compromises politically, but he always has the belief in his heart that has not wavered, that is, always cultivate the virtue of governing, always have the heart of self-discipline, be in his position, plan his politics, and fully support everything that benefits the country and the people. He firmly opposes any act that harms the country and the people.

The problem of genetically modified is related to the century-old plan, and may even be related to the future of a nation. Although his power is very small, he will do his best to support a blue sky under his jurisdiction and within his abilities and never look back.

"In Xiama District, I have been planning to deal with Yuan Mingliang's hot money for a year. When I was plotted against someone, when Secretary Fu was promoted to Mayor Fu, I kept moving forward firmly. Mr. Zhao, if you don't have confidence in me, I don't think you will meet me today." Xia Xiang was very calm, but responded firmly to Zhao Xiaofeng.

Zhao Xiaofeng laughed and slapped the table and stood up: "It's done, the negotiation is completed today. But..." He looked worried again, "With the relationship between Mayor Xia and Mei Shengping, we will definitely encounter difficulties again, because the promotion of genetically modified technology not only involves the family interests of the Fu family, but also the Mei family also participates, and it is also the largest cooperation project between the Mei family and the Fu family."

As soon as these words came out, Xia Xiang was indeed shocked.

There are competition, confrontation, and interest cooperation among the four major families. It is normal for the Fu family and the Mei family to have common interests. However, what shocked Xia Xiang was that the largest cooperation project between the Mei family and the Fu family was actually genetically modified technology!

He had long known that although he had a good relationship with three of the four major families, he was based on the fact that the fundamental interests of the family were not involved. Once there was a conflict of interest, it might be small, and there might be room for easing. Large, it might turn into enemies in a blink of an eye.

It would be fine if the backend of GM technology was just the Fu family. Anyway, the Fu family was incompatible with him. Unexpectedly, the interests of the Mei family were also entangled. Xia Xiang felt helpless for the first time in his life. Could it be that one day he would go against Mei Shengping?

Thinking about it further, he actually had some premonition. After he came to Lang City, both Mei Shengping and Qiu Xufeng had a subtle change in his attitude towards him. It was not because he was away from Yan City, but because of his appointment, because there was an irreconcilable contradiction between the behind-the-scenes promoter who arranged for him to come to Lang City and the family interests, so several families inevitably became wary of him.

Although Mei Shengping sent him to office and did a good job, he did not reveal any of the relationship between the Mei family in Lang City. He introduced a relationship between Liu Yilin and him, which was not deep. Qiu Xufeng was the same, and only promoted Li Caiyuan to serve as his secretary, and did not explain in detail. Except for the old man who called him to go to the capital, the Wu family had no further information after he was appointed. Needless to say, the Fu family had no connection with him. It seemed that in the blink of an eye, his relationship with several major families had dropped to freezing point.

It also led to his early days when he came to Lang City, his eyes were smeared, he could not find the direction, he did not dare to take steps, and he walked through a period of confusion that was neither long nor short.

Just as he had two available people, Li Caiyuan and Tang Hua, he slowly opened up the situation in Lang City and saw a ray of light. Zhao Xiaofeng's accident not only brought a lot of insider news, but also brought about the huge collision that Lang City was about to usher in.

The promotion of genetically modified products will inevitably be a fierce battle in Langshi.

Although Zhao Xiaofeng's insider information is very timely and useful, which gives Xia Xiang a clear goal, it is possible that there is a conflict of interest with the Mei family because of different positions. It can be said that although the progress is great today, it is mixed.

The position determines the team, and the team decides whether it is an enemy or a friend. Xia Xiang glanced at Zhao Xiaofeng and remembered that he and Zhao Xiaofeng had never met several months ago. They didn't want to sit together today, but they became an alliance together, which forced him to sigh in politics. Sometimes the changes in friends and enemies are even in a turn.

...After having a sumptuous lunch, after continuing to have a chat with Zhao Xiaofeng and Wang Qiangwei, at the unanimous request of Zhao Xiaofeng and Wang Qiangwei, they completed a pleasant meeting by Xia Xiang as "Brother Feng" and "Sister Qiangwei".

Xia Xiang came out of the No. 9 Mansion and wanted to return to the Municipal Party Committee. The Municipal Party Committee was his place to open up the situation. What he didn't know was that as soon as he came out of the No. 9 Mansion, Chen knew about his meeting with Wang Qiangwei.

Oh, Chen's office in Caesar Hotel is luxurious and atmospheric, with a huge room of 150 square meters, and everything is available. Oh, Chen did not sit on his boss' chair with a high height, but sat on the sofa at the bottom and talked to someone.

"How is the matter doing?" In the room, in addition to Chen and a 55-year-old man, Yin Moli was also there. Yin Moli stood aside, with her hands behind her back, and looked out the window. Her butt was round and plump, upright, and suddenly closed around her waist, and it turned graceful. Even if someone who had never seen her true face, she could see the beauty's charm just looking at her back, and she was longing for her.

Oh, Chen’s office is located on the 18th floor. If you look out, you can see most of the city. I don’t know if it is intentional. If you look out, the clearest place is the front and back doors of No. 9 Mansion.

The entire No. 9 Mansion is also within sight, and there is a 30-fold bird watching mirror erected in front of the window - of course it is not for bird watching. Oh, Chen Ke does not have this leisure and elegance, he is observing people.

Yin Moli, who was accidentally looking out, saw a familiar figure coming out of the No. 9 Mansion. She wrinkled her small and delicate nose slightly, and then pointed the bird watching mirror at the figure downstairs. At the 30-fold magnification, Xia Xiang's handsome and slightly healthy face came into her eyes.

He walked in a hurry, with a faint smile on his face, and his steps were firm. After coming out of the No. 9 Mansion, Wang Qiangwei came out to see him off in person. He just waved his hand slightly, and then left without looking back, without hesitation at all.
Chapter completed!
