Reborn Nobility

Chapter 459 The prerequisite for pretending to be a pig is to be able to eat tigers

"Five years?" He Jingsheng didn't believe his ears.

It is said that there are no aristocrats in China. No matter how powerful the second generation of red officials, the second generation of rich people, or the three generations above are either the poor and lower-middle peasants who are hungry and want to eat enough, they are willing to bet their youth on tomorrow. A restless farmer entrepreneur digging in the soil.

However, the Shen family is definitely not. Shen Linfeng's great-grandfather was a remnant of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he was still an outstanding figure. Later, Western learning spread to the East. He was deeply influenced by Yan Fu's "Tianyan Lun" and "Yuan Fu" and believed in industry. He saved the country, started private enterprises, became one of the earliest Chinese national capitalists in China, and became the flour king and cotton yarn king during the Republic of China. Shen Linfeng's grandmother was the daughter of a powerful official in the Qing Dynasty, with a slender figure and graceful features.

It can be said that in the eyes of the world, the Shen family has an aristocratic pedigree that is difficult for others to match. A serious and big family with hundreds of years of accumulation, naturally has a certain magnanimity that is difficult for others to match.

Even in the morning meeting with He Jingsheng, Xia Jindong and other government staff, Shen Linfeng appeared polite, well-behaved, and somewhat elegant.

However, He Jingsheng never expected that the eldest son of the Shen family, who had aristocratic ancestry, received formal business education, and grew up in Hong Kong, a colony of a capitalist country, would actually act like a rogue at this time!

"Yes." Shen Linfeng looked at Xia Xiaoluo fiercely, his eyes were extremely cold, like a rattlesnake with twinkling eyes in the dark night. "I will patiently follow the progress of this matter. If my requirements are not met, I'm sorry. The cooperation intentions we just reached this morning are all null and void!"

"Mr. Shen, this makes me very embarrassed. You have to know that China's administration and judiciary are independent of each other. I cannot interfere with judicial decisions at will. I think this matter should be left to the court for decision." He Jingsheng's face was also cold. A little bit.

It can be said that in the 1990s, attracting investment was the top priority of governments at all levels.

Funds! Funds!

Governments at all levels are like travelers on a long journey in the desert, very hungry and thirsty, and the funds are the spring that makes them happy!

Attracting investment is also an important indicator for superiors to inspect cadres.

He Jingsheng is not as great as other officials, and he keeps serving the people. He just sees that the economic development of Xinyang City does need funds, the idle labor force needs work, the poor farmers need wages, science, education, culture and health, who does not need money? He just wants to be able to meet the inspection standards of his superiors, to be worthy of the title of "Pioneering Soldier of Reform", to do a good job, and to be promoted one level before retiring. If he can become a member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee, it will be considered a high achievement!

Yes, He Jingsheng hopes to get funds, but he also understands that not all investments will bring benefits to the people. At this time, seeing how arrogant and domineering Shen Linfeng is, the leader of a corporate group does not even abide by basic laws. So, can his company bring benefits to the people? Will wages be in arrears? Will the environment be polluted?

"Haha. Okay." Shen Linfeng was stunned for a moment, then regained his confidence. Qi Yu said with a majestic smile: "Then, I announce that now, the 200 million investment is gone! You guys, this place that has nothing to do, will continue. Let’s stay poor!”

"Mr. Shen, don't say that! Don't say that! It's too early. Isn't it just this kid who offended you? Don't worry, I'll take it out on you! Break his legs!" A car was driving in front of him. It stopped abruptly. Xia Jindong opened the car door, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and rushed over. He glanced at Xia Xiaoluo coldly, and quickly apologized to Shen Linfeng. "Don't be angry, my good brother, let's go. , let’s go to the city government office and sit there for a while. We have something to discuss!”

Xia Jindong just received a call from Ge Junfeng and heard a detailed report on the situation at the scene.

Xia Jindong broke out in a cold sweat just after listening to it. Shen's Enterprise is a consortium-style family business in Hong Kong, with strong strength and sufficient funds. Shen Linfeng came to China to look for investment opportunities. It was like the God of Wealth had arrived, and he was attacked by all kinds of people. The princes were chasing and intercepting him, making him very popular.

Xia Jindong and He Jingsheng went to great lengths to snatch this kid away from Zhongzhou, the provincial capital. It is said that this incident also aroused strong dissatisfaction among several officials of the Zhongzhou Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government, who cursed He and Xia as hooligans.

These two people don't care about this. You can scold me all you want, but it won't make any difference to me. However, haven't the people of Xinyang City benefited?

Xia Jindong and He Jingsheng are gangsters in the political world, just like Xia Xiaoluo is a gangster in the business world. However, these two gangsters have good consciences.

However, the cooked duck in front of him flew away again, why didn't he become anxious?

Thinking about this restless son, he is a little angry. Seventeen or eighteen should be an innocent age, but this boy is as cunning as a ghost and has a deep scheming mind. He is not at all innocent and innocent like his peers. Today, Xia Xiao, who has always been precocious Why was Luo so impulsive again and actually attacked Shen Linfeng? This gave Xia Jindong a headache.

Now we have caused such a big thing again!

"Forget it, I feel like vomiting when I see that shabby office of the city government. Besides -" He raised his wrist and looked at his watch, then said with infinite pretentiousness: "My private plane is already waiting at Wuhan Airport. I I have to rush back to Hong Kong overnight to attend the signing ceremony of a billion Hong Kong dollar investment project. This place is so barren that it doesn’t even have an airport. It’s really sad. Sirs, you still need to work hard. The mainland is really too backward. Got it!"

"Okay, okay." Xia Jindong suppressed the anger in his heart. "But your company's investment in Xinyang still needs to be considered in the long term-"

Oh. I have already stated the conditions, needless to say. As long as Mayor Xia follows my request, everything will be easy, let alone 200 million, 2 billion is not a problem." Shen Linfeng said with a smile. Two first-level officials from Huaxia City When I nodded and bowed in front of myself, it felt so beautiful, as if my bones were a little lighter.

"Yes, yes." Xia Jindong nodded spinelessly. After a long time, he took a deep breath and forced himself to smile. "To be honest, this kid is my incompetent son. For my sake, don't do it." I know him the same way. He is a child who is not sensible. I will punish him severely when I get home! In my heart, I have always regarded you, Brother Shen, as my confidant——"

"oh--?!"

Shen Linfeng was suddenly startled and suddenly realized.

Some time ago, he asked Mr. Zhou from the Zhou family, one of the top ten families in China, to help him find out about Xia Xiaoluo's background. He knew that Xia Xiaoluo's father was the mayor, but at that time, he didn't care. As one of the top ten families in Hong Kong, One of the leaders of the Shen family really didn't take a small mayor in Mainland China seriously.

Only now do I realize that the so-called mayor is Mayor Xia who is begging for mercy from him for a 200 million investment!

God help me! Today, it seems that you, Xia Xiaoluo, will definitely fall into my hands.

When Xia Xiaoluo saw the flattering smile on his father's face, his mood at this moment was definitely not an exaggeration.

He thought that his father would have great glory when he became the mayor, and he would always have people waiting on him. At this time, he realized that although his father had great glory in front of others, there was also a sadness behind it that others could not see. He really agreed with that sentence. As the old saying goes, if you want to be prominent in front of others, you must suffer behind others.

In China, in China's officialdom, it is much more difficult to be a good official who serves the country and the people than to be a mediocre official or a corrupt official.

What kind of institutional problem is causing this phenomenon of "bad money driving out good money" that only occurs in the economic field?

"I'm giving you face, just for your own sake?" Shen Linfeng felt that the five fingerprints left by Xia Xiaoluo on his face were burning and painful again, and his hatred for Xia Xiaoluo was transferred to Xia Jindong in a strange way. "Who do you think you are! What do you think you are? Aren't you just a municipal cadre? A person like you is not worthy of carrying my shoes!"

"You shameless person, you think everyone in the world is your mother, and they are all spoiling you!" Xia Xiaoluo was furious and couldn't stand it anymore. He rushed forward with a stride, but Ge Junfeng grabbed him from behind. Xia Xiaoluo rushed to Shen Linfeng and slapped Shen Linfeng several times!

Xia Xiaoluo was not the kind of person who would draw his sword and look around confused at the slightest disagreement. After all, he had the mental age of more than thirty years old. Fighting and getting passionate when he was seventeen or eighteen years old was called awesome. We have more than 30 years of life experience, and if we just have a disagreement and give someone a beating, that would be ###.

He has always adhered to the outlook on life and values ​​of "either be tolerant or cruel."

The so-called "keep a low profile and bide your time" is actually a very pretentious philosophy of life. Xia Xiaoluo really didn't realize what's so special about this survival philosophy that has been passed down for many years?

Lie down to avoid being shot. If someone spits at you, you will accept it shamelessly. This is the case for weak people who have no personality and no dignity.

The saddest thing is that many ### people simply don’t have the ability to live standing up, and they don’t have the courage to maintain their dignity, so they squat, lie down, or lie on their stomachs to maintain their lingering lives. They are so worried about this This very mean way of life has a very loud and mighty name - "hide your strength and bide your time!"

The so-called weak culture is a culture that is easy to learn, understand, and copy, but has absolutely no core competitiveness.

Blindly keeping a low profile and biding your time is actually cowardice. You have to be low-key as a person, but the prerequisite is that you can be high-profile at any time, otherwise you are a coward. The prerequisite for pretending to be a pig is that you must be able to eat the tiger, otherwise, you will really become a pig!

He could tolerate Shen Linfeng insulting him, or even trample him under his feet for the benefit of Xinyang City.

However, what he couldn't bear was that he, Shen Linfeng, a lowly and powerful man, actually pointed fingers at his most respected and beloved father!
