Chapter 663: Xiao Dong is calm
Dong Xuebing immediately became the spotlight in the meeting room, but no one greeted him.
Ping An Subdistrict Office’s Chu Qinghua was also at the meeting. He walked past Dong Xuebing, ignored him, and sat in the middle row. The District’s Investment Promotion Agency Chief, Pang Zhengyi, entered the meeting room and saw Dong Xuebing’s back. He stopped for a second and went to the back row far away from Dong Xuebing.
The situation in the meeting room is the same when Dong Xuebing is outside at the compound. He is isolated.
This might not happen if Dong Xuebing had offended one District Leader. After all, there are opposing factions within a District. If he had offended one faction, the other faction would continue to speak to him. But Nan Shan District only has two factions, the Wang faction and the Geng faction. Dong Xuebing had offended both of them, and no one dared to interact with him to avoid being seen as close to him by the leaders.
A few moments later.
People started to chat again in the meeting room.
Dong Xuebing looked around and saw everyone was ignoring him. Do you all have to do this to me? Hmph!
The more others didn’t want to speak to Dong Xuebing, the more he wanted to join them.
“Ah…. Old Pang.” Dong Xuebing saw Pang Zhengyi, who was sitting in the back row. He walks over with a smile and sits beside him. “Old Pang, it’s been a while since we met. How is your Investment Promotion Agency? Have you achieved this year’s target?”
Pang Zhengyi is mad. Damn! Who are you to call me Old Pang? Since when are we so close?
Pang Zhengyi’s cousin, Pang Zhou, was Da Feng County’s Investment Promotion Agency Chief. But he was fired because of Dong Xuebing, and Pang Zhengyi hated Dong Xuebing to the core.
“Old Pang, are you free tonight? Let’s have dinner.”
“I am busy.”
“No matter how busy you are, you should not skip your meals. Let’s have dinner tonight. It’s been a while since we drank together.”
Pang Zhengyi almost vomited blood. I had only drunk with you once during Chu Qinghua’s son\'s wedding banquet. Why are you making it sound like we are close after working hours?! You are too evil! You are trying to frame me. He looked at his watch. “There’s still time before the meeting. I will go to the restroom first.” He quickly stood up and walked away. Pang Zhengyi doesn’t want Mayor Geng to see him sitting and chatting with Dong Xuebing.
Dong Xuebing was amused when he saw Pang Zhengyi’s expression. He looked around and started walking towards the middle row. “Ah….Old Chu!”
Chu Qinghua almost fell off his chair.
Dong Xuebing sat beside Chu Qinghua and laughed. “I had been looking for you. I had made a dinner reservation tonight. Let’s have dinner later.”
Chu Qinghua’s eyes twitched. “I am not feeling well today. I’m not going.”
Dong Xuebing immediately showed his concern. “Ah…. What happened?”
“I am having some gastric problems.”
“You should have told me earlier. I had learned some Traditional Chinese medicine recently. I can treat you tonight, and I guarantee you will recover.”
Chu Qinghua cursed in his heart. Who needs your treatment? All my illness will recover when if you leave now.
No one dares to mess with Dong Xuebing after going against the District Leaders. His fearless and aggressive working style had scared most people in Nan Shan District. This guy is a hooligan and the God of Plague. Whoever gets involved with him will get bad luck. This is why although Chu Qinghua hated Dong Xuebing for snatching the Model Unit award from his Subdistrict, he did not show his anger.
The meeting room suddenly quiets down.
A woman in her late twenties entered the room.
“Secretary Ma.”
“Secretary Ma.”
The two District Government staff greeted that woman politely.
Ma Jian asked. “Are the materials ready?”
One of the staff replied. “Yes. We are about to distribute it.”
“Ok. Let me look at it first.” Ma Jian flipped a set of materials and nodded. “Alright. Distribute it. Hurry up. Mayor Geng will be arriving soon.”
“Yes.”
Dong Xuebing almost looked at that woman. Although he had not spoken to this woman, he knows she is Geng Yuehua’s secretary. She holds the title of District Office Department Deputy Director and is considered Geng Yuehua’s messenger. He heard she is fast and doesn’t beat around the bush. She should have been affected by Geng Yuehua’s working style.
After a while, Executive Deputy Mayor Shen Fei enters the room.
A few moments later, Geng Yuehua stepped into the meeting room. She was the last person to arrive, and she walked straight to her seat in front. She had not put on any makeup, but she still looked stunning. She has the same expression, hairstyle, the same type of clothes on her.
The meeting room immediately quieted down after Geng Yuehua arrived.
Everyone knows Mayor Geng will not tolerate any mistakes, and no one dares to make any sound.
Dong Xuebing stopped chatting with Chu Qinghua and Pang Zhengyi. He straightens his back and looks at the podium.
The meeting started with Shen Fei first. He held the microphone and briefly stated the agenda for this meeting. “An investment delegation from Tokyo, Japan, will be arriving tomorrow to inspect our District’s investment projects. Our District had been preparing for their visit.”
Japanese investment delegation?
Project investments?
Dong Xuebing realized he had something to do with this matter.
When Dong Xuebing was still Yan Tai County Investment Promotion Agency Chief two months ago, he had visited an investment fair in Japan with Fen Zhou City’s District Investment Promotion Agency Chiefs. Those District Investment Promotion Agencies successfully attracted investors, but Yan Tai County’s environment and resources are not attractive enough to attract them. In the end, Dong Xuebing could not attract any Japanese investors, and he even met with an air crash on his way back. This Japanese delegation should be the investors Pang Zhengyi contacted in Japan.
After Shen Fei finished talking, Geng Yuehua took over and mentioned a few notes.
Geng Yuehua asked all Subdistrict Offices to coordinate and support the Investment Promotion Agency. They need to leave a good impression on the Japanese investors and grant all their approvals. The Subdistrict Office Leaders should bring the investors to visit the investment sites and get their investments.
Everyone at the meeting took notes.
Dong Xuebing knew these people were only pretending to be listening attentively in front of the Leader. He didn’t need to pretend and just sat there quietly without taking notes.
After Geng Yuehua finished, she passed the microphone to Shen Fei again.
Mayor Shen took out a work performance report and said. “I will to touching on our Subdistrict Office’s performance in the past six months.” He looked towards the middle rows. “I need to criticize Guang Ming Subdistrict Office first. It is July now, and you all have only gotten 150 million worth of investments. The actual funds received are only 7 million. Director Dong, what is your Subdistrict doing?! Your Subdistrict Office’s performance for the first half of the year is very bad.”
Criticizing a Subdistrict in a meeting on Investment Promotion work is uncommon.
Dong Xuebing looked blankly at the podium and did not say a word.
Dong Xuebing has nothing to do with this matter as he had taken over this position last month. The former Director was responsible for the Subdistrict’s bad performance.
Shen Fei criticizes Guang Ming Subdistrict for their poor investment promotion work. Everyone at the meeting knows the reason behind this. Mayor Geng Yuehua is targeting and finding fault with Dong Xuebing.
Pang Zhengyi gloated as he looked at Dong Xuebing’s back.
Chu Qinghua and the other Subdistrict Office Directors exchanged looks and turned to Dong Xuebing.
The time has finally come.
Mayor Geng Yuehua is angered by Dong Xuebing and is making a move.
Throwing Geng Yuehua’s brother to the Party School for no reason is starting a war with her.
The meeting ended.
Geng Yuehua did not look at Dong Xuebing and left with her secretary Ma Jian.
Dong Xuebing started packing his things and naturally walked out of the meeting room. He behaves like he was not the one getting criticized earlier.
Everyone looks at Dong Xuebing’s back. He might look calm now, but all of them know his life will be tough in the future.
