Normally, Mr. Zheng is stern and rarely smiles, especially during meetings, as if someone owes him 8 million!

When are they ever this amiable?

Even his most prized disciple, who was also his son-in-law, had never received such a kind look from him!

Sun De's expression was unpredictable, making Zhao Yisheng's lips twitch!

He strode over to Sun De and whispered, "Stop having those messy thoughts!"

If your master finds out, he'll punish you again!

Sun De quickly composed himself and followed Zhao Yisheng into the study.

After all, Old Zheng is not young anymore, and moreover, at his age and in his position, there is no need for him to cater to others!

Those present were mostly his trusted confidants, so naturally he did whatever made them comfortable!

He sat in a recliner by the window, and with a tap of his foot, the recliner began to rock gently!

He smiled and said to everyone, "Don't be shy, everyone, please sit down."

Of the five or six people present, which one wasn't in a high position?

Only Lu Zhiye is a businessman!

Normally, these people wouldn't even bother to look at Lu Zhiye.

But now, they all unconsciously glanced up at this young man!

No matter how much contempt they felt, they dared not show it!

Old Zheng's actions just now were clearly to support this young man!

Seeing that everyone was sitting upright, Lu Zhiye sat down on a separate sofa to the side.

Anyone with eyes can see that there is a huge gap between him and the others!

The coffee table in the middle is like a clearly defined river, clearly dividing social classes!

Zhao Yisheng originally wanted to sit next to Lu Zhiye, but Lu Zhiye spread his legs and put his arms on the sofa, leaving him no space at all!

Zhao Yisheng understood Lu Zhiye's good intentions; he didn't want to involve Zhao Yisheng.

Old Zheng raised his chin: "Let's all talk about the recent developments in the major districts!"

As soon as Old Zheng finished speaking, the others all turned to look at Lu Zhiye.

Their meaning was clear: this was an important matter for the authorities, so how could this man be present?

Old Zheng understood their meaning, his face darkened, and he raised his hand, saying, "You should know very well why I called you here!"

If it's just a work-related report, it can be done at the office!

This is just for discussion; everyone is welcome to share their opinions!

Now, the country is focusing on economic development, and the comrade next to you is a leader in the individual economy!

He is in charge of many projects in Pengcheng. If we want to keep the focus in our own hands, I don't think we can get a clear picture of the situation by relying on the people in our unit alone!

Only by listening firsthand to these economic reformers can we better seize opportunities!

As expected of someone in this position, he silenced everyone with just a few words!

In an instant, everyone's gaze toward Lu Zhiye changed!

The way he addressed him changed from "that kid" to "Comrade Lu"!

Sun De said with a smile, "Since Elder Zheng says so, let's all express our own opinions!"

First of all, I think Shenzhen's development is too aggressive.

Wage increases are a matter of great concern to many people.

Some workers in Beijing are unhappy, feeling that since they are both part of China, why is it that wages there have increased by 30%?

The small room was completely silent. Another man wearing glasses pushed up his glasses and glanced at the documents in his hand.

He said loudly, "My views are the same as Comrade Sun De's!"

Not only for this reason, but also because the people in Shenzhen are a mixed bag, there are great safety risks!

Some people, taking advantage of their desire to invest, have done many bad things!

According to the investigation by Pengcheng Compound, five investment entities have been dismissed!

This all explains the problem: in a rapidly developing economy, the allure of money has exceeded controllable limits!

I think we can appropriately slow down the development of Shenzhen.

Lu Zhiye frowned. He had never known that people in Beijing would think this way!

But on second thought, I understand. What these people in high positions need is stability, not uncontrollability!

Zhao Yisheng, however, disagreed with them: "According to my investigation, although the development of Pengcheng has certain drawbacks, it has indeed improved people's lives a lot!"

Every place has its unseen areas of development. We cannot allow a small setback to lead us to close ourselves off from the world like the Qing Dynasty, focusing only on internal development and refusing to engage with the international community!

This will only cause our various industries to fall behind!

The square-faced man sitting next to Zhao Yisheng nodded and said, "I agree with Comrade Zhao's opinion!"

I've recently done some research, and logically speaking, apart from the major special economic zones, Beijing's development should be at the forefront.

But what was the result? Many small businesses were driven out!

For example, some people want to open a breakfast shop, and it takes them five or six trips to get the food safety certificate!

Isn't this a dereliction of duty on our part?

Many people who set up stalls on the street lack proper planning, and when the neighborhood committee sees them, they simply drive them away!

They never even considered solving the problem at its root!

Their words made everyone fall into deep thought!

The fact that they could say those things clearly shows they had done their research!

Master Zheng looked at his two apprentices with satisfaction!

He cleared his throat and looked at Lu Zhiye: "Comrade Lu was previously in Pengcheng, so you should be very clear about the development there!"

Why don't you tell us about it?

Lu Zhiye was inwardly groaning. Wasn't everyone present someone who had appeared in the newspapers?

He could offend someone with anything he says, especially if he runs into a petty person!

They might not do anything outwardly, but who knows what underhanded tricks they might be up to behind the scenes!

Lu Zhiye sighed inwardly, pondered for a moment, and then said, "The two comrades just now explained the development of Pengcheng very clearly."

This must have been investigated for a long time; Shenzhen is currently in a state of chaos, and no one can deny that.

But if we look at it from another angle, could there be anything we need among this mixed group of people?

Could we leverage their resources to vigorously develop our economy?

Those who come to Shenzhen to invest all bring a large amount of capital.

What does our country lack most right now? Money.

For a country to become strong, it needs financial support for everything, from weapons and military to civilian life, heavy industry, and light industry!

Therefore, this slight drawback can be completely covered by our funding needs!

Instead of thinking about these things, we should think about how to come up with a treaty to bind these people!

"We must steer this treaty in the right direction, ensuring the favorable aspects are in our favor!"
