The next day.
At noon, the county committee Guest House.
The inspectors from Japanese foreign companies arrived. A total of five or six people drove two black Toyota Reiz, County Party Secretary Xiang Daofa and his secretary personally greeted them outside. They were accompanied by several Xiang Faction people, deputy secretary Cao Xupeng, Director of the Investment Bureau Meng Xianglin, Investment Bureau, deputy director Lu Dafa, etc., etc. It is not difficult to see from this formation that Secretary Xiang attaches great importance to this inspection team, and it is almost time for the city leaders to inspect. Dong Xuebin looked at it from a distance and shook his head slightly. Someone from the media also came. He felt that Xiang Daofa was putting on a show. Since knowing Xiang Daofa's plan yesterday, Dong Xuebin has become even more disgusted with the task assigned to him by the bureau, and he resists it from the bottom of his heart!
"On behalf of Yantai County, I welcome you all." Xiang Daofa said enthusiastically. The Power of Time and Wealth 283
The accompanying translator said in two languages, "This is Secretary Xiang, this is Sakamoto-sensei."
"Secretary Xiang, hello."
Sakamoto smiled and shook hands with Xiang Daofa. Click, click, a camera in the distance recorded this shot. It must be the front page of County Newspaper today.
Dong Xuebin was not in the mood to listen to them. He turned to a County Party Committee Office staff member and said, "Where is County Chief Xie?"
The young man whispered, "County Chief seems to have a meeting to be held, but he didn't come."
Dong Xuebin curled his lips in his heart, Investment Promotion was originally County Government's business, but your county committee has started to organize it this time. It's not that Sister Xie won't come, it's that you don't want Sister Xie to get involved, for fear of sharing the political achievements, right? What the hell are they doing one by one! The hand is also stretched too long! On the other hand, Xie Huilan, before leaving yesterday, Sister Xie also asked himself to clear the way for the inspection team and protect their safety. This is a relatively big thing for Yantai County recently, even if Xiang Daofa xiǎo is secretly afraid of County Government There are people involved, and Sister Xie has no intention of causing any damage. Look at Sister Xie's level. No wonder his vision and overall view are different from those who have been leaders in central departments. In comparison, Xiang Daofa is a bit petty, and his eyes only focus on the political achievements that he can see!
After that, everyone began to go inside one after another to prepare for their meal.
"Director Dong." Someone called him.
Dong Xuebin turned around and saw that the person calling him was a middle-aged man under fifty years old, "Is it Director Meng?"
Meng Xianglin nodded, walked up and said, "The first stop of the afternoon inspection team is Wutian Township. The possibility of investing there is very high, so no mistakes can be made. Then you send two people to follow the whole process to avoid accidents. You must leave a good impression on the inspection team."
Dong Xuebin replied without answering, "I know."
Seeing him like this, Meng Xianglin frowned and said, "Director Dong, you need to pay more attention."
Hey, aren't you done yet? Dong Xuebin said, "I attach great importance to it. I understand it without you having to tell me." He doesn't attach too much importance to him. If this matter is done well, Xie Huilan will not have any great political achievements. Xiang Daofa will benefit from it. He will never remember his own good deeds, and will continue to cause trouble for himself in the future. If it fails, Dong Xuebin will have to take responsibility and pay for this failure. How can you make Dong Xuebin take such a disgusting task seriously?
Meng Xianglin was disgusted in his heart and said, "I won't say more. If something goes wrong, don't blame me for not saying the ugly things first. No one can bear this responsibility!" After that, he turned around and left. He was worse than Dong Xuebin is at a higher level, and he is the person in charge of Investment Promotion this time. He has regarded Dong Xuebin, who was sent to protect the safety of the inspection team, as a subordinate, and naturally he is not very polite when he speaks.
Dong Xuebin I'm so annoyed. You Investment Bureau are you trying to teach me a lesson?
Meng Xianglin attaches great importance to this investment invitation, even more than any previous one. Not only is the amount of investment from the other party very high, but also the image of the foreign company is also an opportunity to open up Yantai County Investment Promotion's embarrassing situation. As long as it is properly publicized, it may be possible in the future. More companies and funds will choose Yantai County. This is a very critical step. Of course, what Meng Xianglin values more is political performance. As long as this electronic component factory can be acquired by Yantai County, Meng Xianglin's career will most likely be taken to the next level.
After the meal, Xiang Daofa and County Leaders left Guest House, and Meng Xianglin and Lu Dafa greeted the people of the inspection group diligently.
The leader Sakamoto is obviously the person in charge of this matter, and he should have a big say in deciding whether the funds can be invested in Yantai County, so Meng Xianglin and the others are very enthusiastic about Sakamoto-sensei, and, who is in his forties Sakamoto Maybe they also know that the other party wants something from them, and whoever is rich is the boss these days, so Sakamoto seldom says anything, and is very polite. He usually just nods, smiles, or says "hmm" without expressing anything. The secretary and the entourage are responsible for the social work.
Not long after, Sakamoto said something in Japanese to the translator next to him. The Power of Time and Wealth 283
The translator tilted his head and said, "Sakamoto-sensei said he wanted to go to the countryside to have a look."
"No problem." Meng Xianglin said immediately, "We will lead the way."
Lu Dafa quickly went out to arrange the car. After a while, the leaders and staff of the Investment Bureau got on the car and drove to Wutian Township. Two Toyota Reiz vehicles from the foreign company inspection team followed behind. Although Dong Xuebin was very dissatisfied with the task, he did not neglect it. He made a phone call to the county bureau and temporarily summoned two police officers and asked them to wear plain clothes and drive with them to be responsible for the safety of the inspection team. He also contacted the comrades of Wutian Township Police Station and told them to do their job well.
Ring ring ring, the phone rang.
Dong Xuebin answered, "Mom, what's going on?"
"Have you eaten?" Luan Xiaoping's voice sounded on the other end.
"Just finished eating."
"Oh, if you are free tonight, you can come over to mom's place."
"What's wrong?" Dong Xuebin thought for a while, "Don't stay late at night. I'll go there now. There won't be any work in the afternoon. Where are you and the school dormitory?"
"Yeah."
"Okay, just wait for me."
"It's not a big deal, just drive slower on the road."
Dong Xuebin did not return to the Public Security Bureau. Instead, he drove to a supermarket first and bought some nutritional supplements. Then he drove to the County No. 1 Middle School staff dormitory, went upstairs and knocked on the door.
"Mom, I'm here."
Luan Xiaoping, who opened the door, looked at the bag in his son's hand and complained, "Why are you buying these messy things again?"
"Hey, you can drink it. It's good for your health anyway." Dong Xuebin walked sideways.
"Mom, Tian'er can't drink so much. It's just a waste of money." Luan Xiaoping took the thing from his hand and nodded Coffee Table, "The tea was freshly brewed. Just drink it." She scolded her son for wasting money, but Luan Xiaoping felt really good about it. Every time Xiao Bin came, he had to buy her some nutritional supplements. This was because he felt sorry for her.
Dong Xuebin took a sip of tea and said, "By the way, Mom, what's the matter?"
"Wait a minute." Luan Xiaoping walked back to the small room, and when he came out, he had an extra coat in his hand.
Dong Xuebin said happily, "Bought for me?"
Luan Xiaoping glared at him, "Mom knitted it for you, try it on."
"Oh, what are you doing with all that time? It doesn't cost much to buy one now, and I'm going to make you tired again." In the past, my family was poor, and Dong Xuebin's clothes and máoku for the winter were all Mom stitched together. To knit, sometimes you have to start knitting in the summer. It takes several months to start knitting one stitch at a time. It is too tiring. Now that the family has money, few people buy malaysian thread to knit malaysia clothes. "Isn't your blood pressure been unstable recently? Look at you..." The Power of Time and Wealth 283
Luan Xiaoping picked up the shirt and pointed it at him disapprovingly, "Go and try it. If it doesn't fit, I'll change it."
Dong Xuebin felt warm in his heart, took off his coat and put on his máo, "How is it?"
"It generally fits. Are the sleeves a little too long?"
Dong Xuebin said, "It's not long, just hold it on a little longer."
Luan Xiaoping stretched out his hand and rubbed it, and said with satisfaction, "Okay, it fits well. It's getting cold now, so don't take it off if you put it on. This is much warmer than your leather jacket."
The máo is gray. Although the máo I didn't buy is fancy, it is very close-fitting. Dong Xuebin also likes it. He looked in the mirror and smiled, "Mom, thank you."
Luan Xiaoping smiled and said, "If you like it, Mom will give you another scarf tomorrow."
"No, no, no, no." Dong Xuebin said hurriedly, "I'm still going to feel bad if I have to tire you any longer."
Luan Xiaoping snorted, "If you knew how much you cared about Mom, you wouldn't have gone on those dangerous missions. Mom didn't say anything about you this time. She was missing for several days, and Mom almost died." More than just anxious, during the days when Dong Xuebin was working as an undercover agent, all Luan Xiaoping's soul was gone when he knew that his son had suddenly disappeared. He was worried at home all day long, for fear of some bad news coming, and he cried countless times.
"Mom, don't talk about whether this will work or not, I was wrong, wrong." Dong Xuebin smiled apologetically and gave Mom a hammer on the shoulder, then blurred the matter.
Luan Xiaoping patted his son's hand on the shoulder and said, "Okay, Mom knows you are busy, so go back to work."
"You have classes in the afternoon, right? Yes, I'll take you to school."
"It's only two steps away from the school. What's the gift?"
In the end, Dong Xuebin drove Mom to the County No. 1 Middle School school gate. Seeing Mom enter the school gate, Dong Xuebin turned around and turned around.
night.
Dong Xuebin returned to Public Security Bureau Family Compound and called to inquire. The inspection in the afternoon went smoothly and there were no accidents.
Yes, this is not the Middle East, what could happen?
After putting down the phone, Dong Xuebin went to take a shower. While taking a shower, he thought about what he mentioned about Zhengke Level. Suddenly, the mobile phone in the bathroom started chirping. Dong Xuebin frowned, turned off the shower head and wiped his right hand. He opened the plastic curtain and reached out to grab the mobile phone. Trying not to let the mobile phone touch the water, he pressed the answer button a little further away from his ear.
"Hey, who's there?"
"Director Dong, I'm from the communication team. I was told to report all the matters related to the foreign company inspection team to you."
Dong Xuebin frowned deeper, "What happened to the inspection team?"
The man said, "I'm at the scene right now. A Toyota Reiz from the inspection team collided with someone."
"Where are you? Are you okay?" Dong Xuebin felt nervous.
"The people in the inspection group are fine. The car was hit a little bit at the headlights, and the car that was hit was hurt in the rear buttocks. It's not a big deal. But then the owner of the Citroen car that was hit had some disputes with the people in the inspection group. Both sides started to fight. We just got it under control. How do you think we will handle this?"
"Where is the location? I'll be there right away!"
"Not far from Xikou Gas Station..."
After the policeman finished speaking, Dong Xuebin dried himself impatiently and walked out of the bathroom.
At this time, the phone rang again, it was Investment Bureau Meng Xianglin, "Director Dong, do you know about the car accident of the inspection team? You should go and deal with it first."
Damn it, when did you become my superior?
Dong Xuebin didn't even bother to talk to him and hung up the line.
Meng Xianglin on the other end was stunned, and suddenly became a little angry. You don't take me seriously?
Dong Xuebin quickly got dressed, went downstairs, got in the car and went straight to the incident site at the west exit. It was not too far away. Dong Xuebin arrived at the scene in less than ten minutes and saw a Toyota Reiz and a car from a distance. Citroen was parked on the side of the road. Several police officers were directing the traffic. It seemed that the police had just arrived. Two police cars were flashing red and blue lights. After all, a fight was involved, which was no longer within the scope of the police.
"What's going on?" Dong Xuebin strode up.
A policeman was saying something over there. When he heard the words, he looked over and quickly ran over with a respectful smile, "Director Dong."
Citroen Beside him, a young man was half-sitting on the ground, with traces of blood on the corner of his mouth, blue eyes, and messy hair. Next to him was a woman in her early twenties, probably the young man's wife, who was crying and wiping the young man's blood. There was also a slap mark on the woman's face, and she was hit very hard. On the other hand, Sakamoto-sensei quietly closed his eyes and meditated in the Toyota car without even getting out of the car. The two people from the inspection team were standing outside holding their shoulders. They were also safe and sound. Except for some dirty clothes, they were not injured.
Dong Xuebin frowned, "Whose responsibility is it?"
The policeman looked over there and said in a small voice, "It's the responsibility of the Japanese. Some passers-by proved that the Toyota went the wrong way when turning the corner, and hit the Citroen at the corner. Well, you know He said, Japan's traffic rules are different from ours. It seems that forward and reverse traffic are exactly the opposite of those in our country. They drive on the left, and the steering wheel position seems to be different. Maybe you are not used to it. "Getting used to it is the hardest thing to change.
"Then the driver doesn't have a domestic driving license?"
"Driver's License I just looked at it. Yes, it is there, but it was many years ago and has expired long ago."
"Chinese?"
"Probably."
"Where's the one who hit?" Dong Xuebin asked, "Who struck first?"
The policeman hesitated and said, "The people in the inspection team said it was the other party who struck first, but passers-by and the Citroen driver who was beaten all said it was the Japanese who struck first."
Dong Xuebin frowned in disgust. He knew without looking that it was not the young couple who made the first move. There were three or four old men in the other inspection team's car. They were not easy to mess with at first glance. Then the Citroen driver also had his daughter-in-law with him. How could they hit someone first? But this matter itself is not easy to deal with. Should it be taken back to the inspection team and detained? This will affect their impression of Yantai County, but if we don't deal with it, how will we deal with the people who were beaten?
In the distance, a man in a suit walked over impatiently, "Why haven't you dealt with it yet?"
The policeman whispered to Dong Xuebin, "This is the driver who hit the person and also participated in the fight."
Dong Xuebin glanced at him and thought to himself, you bumped into someone and hit someone, how can you still be so arrogant?
"Our boss asked, can we leave now?" The driver looked at Dong Xuebin and the others, "We still have something to do! Can you please hurry up?" He spoke good Chinese, but he didn't sound Japanese at first glance.
The policeman knew the importance of this group of people and immediately said, "Please wait a moment, we are processing it."
The driver smacked his lips, looked at his watch and said, "It's been more than ten minutes, how efficient are you in doing things? If you can't handle it, do you need me to call you Secretary Xiang? Let me tell you again, the other party's car suddenly got out of the car halfway. After hitting us, the man pushed us and took action first, so we just defended ourselves. From beginning to end, we were not responsible at all!"
Dong Xuebin looked at him coldly, "It's not because you said you have no responsibility that you have no responsibility! Do you understand?"
When the policeman heard that he was using Secretary Xiang to pressure him, he was a little annoyed, "Brother, your driving certificate has expired a long time ago. If you really think about it, this is driving without a license."
The driver's face darkened, and he immediately turned around and went back without saying a word.
The policeman cursed in a voice that only he and Director Dong could hear, "A fox is pretending to be a tiger! What the hell!"
Dong Xuebin also disliked the driver. Are you still justified in beating him?
Over there, the driver opened the door and said to Sakamoto-sensei in a low voice in Japanese: "Boss, those Chinese police are deliberately looking for trouble and won't let us go." The driver also knew that it was too late for those Yantai County to fawn over them, and even if they were beaten, nothing would happen, so he was not nervous at all. Moreover, although he is Chinese, he later studied in Japan and went to Japan., I accidentally saved Sakamoto-sensei's wife when Sakamoto's wife collapsed on the street during childbirth. After that, Sakamoto was very grateful to him. Not only did he hire him as a full-time driver, but he also trusted the driver very much, otherwise he would not have taken him as his driver when Beihe Province came.
Sakamoto frowned when he heard this. In his opinion, this was a trivial matter, so trivial that he didn't take it to heart.
They were mumbling something, but Dong Xuebin couldn't understand it. He walked up to the young couple and said, "I'm Public Security Bureau. How is the injury?"
The young man bared his teeth and said, "Comrade police, these little Japanese are too unreasonable. I was driving normally and walking fine, but suddenly a car came up from behind and hit me. I got out of the car and argued with them, and they even started beating me. Look, my wife was also beaten."
Dong Xuebin thought for a moment, "It's getting late, so we'd better solve it as soon as possible. Everyone should go back to their homes. Don't delay going to work tomorrow. Do you think this will work? Let them pay some money, including medical expenses and the loss of the car crash, about 30,000. Let this matter be over. What do you think?"
The young couple disagreed, and they couldn't swallow this breath.
Dong Xuebin After patiently talking to each other for a while, the young man said, "Comrade police, I will give you face, okay, thirty thousand thirty thousand, but the driver in the black suit must apologize to me and my wife in person!"
Dong Xuebin felt that this request was not too much, so he nodded slightly.
