After the proposal to establish the Wangye Island Special District was first made, the matter was carried out in full swing. Later, no one could stop it, and the pace of the matter was further accelerated.
The superiors discussed it again and again, and the cigarette butts in the meeting room alone could probably fill two carloads. In the end, two sets of development strategies were determined.
But before these two strategies could be shown to Zeng Wangcai and his opinion sought, war broke out on the island.
So, the establishment was put on hold.
Now the battles on the island are all over. The entire island has been combed many times, and people are digging deep into the ground to find any Japanese soldiers who might have escaped. After all, the Japanese are good at digging holes.
After confirming that there were no Japanese soldiers left on the island and all of them had been captured or killed, the establishment of the organization was put on the agenda.
But at this time Zeng Wangcai brought good news again. The satellite was coming, and he made a lot of money right under the noses of the Americans.
The higher-ups had tasted success with their high-profile displays of military equipment, so they decided that satellites must be made public.
They walked on two legs: on the one hand, they installed it at the satellite base on Wangye Island, and on the other hand, they secretly developed the base under construction in Jiuquan.
With double happiness coming, the higher authorities decided to announce the establishment of the Special Administrative Region to the world at the same time.
"Why... let me be the leader?" Zhang Xiuzhi was a little nervous for the first time in her life. "Grandpa, you should ask our Wangcai for this matter. You know, I only have a junior high school diploma and I don't know anything about government administration. How can I be a leader? Who can I lead? I can't lead anyone except our Wangcai..."
"Isn't it enough that you can lead Wangcai?"
"......"
"To tell you the truth, the higher-ups have already decided on this matter. Xiuzhi, you have to do it whether you want to or not!" Liu Yong did not allow any refusal. "The land is yours, and the money used to build the island is also yours. If you don't do it, who will?"
"Grandpa, please don't order me like this, okay?" Zhang Xiuzhi immediately begged for mercy. "You have to talk to Wangcai about this. I'm just a woman, and I've never been a team leader since I was a child. You want me to be such a high official all of a sudden, how can I bear it?"
"No, I found that after spending a long time with that boy, he has become good at making jokes." Liu Yong said earnestly, "If I can convince him, then you still need to do your job, Xiuzhi..."
It is convenient to communicate with Zeng Wangcai now, so such a big thing must be told to Zeng Wangcai in advance.
Liu Yong was telling the truth. You got the land and the money. If you don’t do it, who will?
However, Zeng Wangcai was determined not to enter the system, and he gave up the job as soon as he received the call.
Liu Yong knew that Zeng Wangcai was not going to do it, and Zhang Xiuzhi must have known it too.
"Grandpa, please don't make things difficult for me. I really can't do this!" Zhang Xiuzhi refused again.
"Look what I said?" Yang Mingyuan laughed, "We can't talk about this like this. They are of the same mind. If Wangcai says he won't do it, Xiuzhi will definitely not do it either. You think Xiuzhi can control Wangcai, and that's true, but you didn't consider that Xiuzhi actually feels for Wangcai..."
This touched upon the personal feelings of the two people. If they were not so familiar with each other, Zhang Xiuzhi would definitely blush.
"So how do you talk?"
"If you ask me, go and announce the good news..."
How to report good news?
Announce the good news with drums and gongs!
Since the matter itself has been confirmed, it is not excessive to publicize the good news.
Liu Yong followed Yang Mingyuan's advice and sent people to Zengzhuang to invite the old lady to the courtyard, and then sent people from the district, city, and ministry, one level at a time.
In just less than half a day, the statue of the God of Wealth was decorated with lights and colors under the management of the street office, making it even more lively than the Chinese New Year.
At the door of the grocery store, a simple shed was set up as a temporary venue for congratulations.
At around 3:00 p.m., the entrance to the grocery store was crowded with people. The neighbors didn't know what was going on, but they were all curious as to why today's commotion was different from previous military interviews and was actually an interview for a TV station.
Those who wanted to be on TV stretched their heads and squeezed forward, trying to find a favorable position.
Except for Zeng Wangcai, all members of the Zeng family were present. Grandma was in the first row, followed by Zeng Youqian’s brothers and Chen Yumei’s sister-in-law, and the other younger generations were at the back.
This was a huge occasion, and since everyone had never seen one before, the leaders had to step forward one by one to congratulate them.
"Grandma, you have raised a good grandson." Liu Yong, on behalf of everyone, said to the grandmother who had begun to be hard of hearing, "Today is a double happiness. You still remember Wangye Island, right? Your grandson donated Wangye Island to the country, and the country decided to establish the Wangye Island Special District. The second great happiness is that your grandson has made a great contribution and built a satellite for the country..."
The satellite must be made public, but we cannot say that it was obtained from the Russians.
If there hadn't been the previous fleet, people would definitely not believe it if this matter was suddenly made public, but it is definitely different now.
I don’t know if this news would cause an international uproar, but it definitely caused an uproar at the scene.
Although Zeng Wangcai had done many great things, he had never achieved such an unprecedented feat as expanding territory.
In front of the crowd, Uncle Li was so excited that tears streamed down his face: "After living for so many years, this is the most inspiring time. I am fortunate to have witnessed the opening of new territories. Our territory has finally become bigger..."
Nowadays, few young people have a concept of territory. Only those who have experienced three dynasties have this experience.
People are always reluctant to mention shameful things. They just keep them in their hearts silently and endure hardships.
Grandpa Li was surrounded by elderly people, who all started wiping their tears. They did not say anything to the young people, but just focused on suppressing their emotions.
