But if Chen Yu uses today's experience as a reasonable excuse to back out, the people of Changping will drown him in their spittle.
It was precisely because he had considered all of this beforehand that Chen Yu was able to remain so calm throughout the entire evening.
At the same time, this was also a test of his own conjecture, and it seems to have worked very well.
His high-profile acceptance of the award, placing himself in the national spotlight, was indeed the right choice.
Accompanied by a group of bodyguards, Chen Yu walked out of the police station.
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something.
He turned to the bureau chief who had seen him off so enthusiastically and said, "By the way, Director Qi, I don't know if you know, but I'm the one who recently caused such a stir by emptying the jackpot of a 500,000-fold lottery."
Qi Xiaowei's expression turned somewhat strange upon hearing this. Was Chen Yu showing off to him?
“I’ve heard about this. Hehe, Xiao Chen, congratulations!” Qi Xiaowei said.
"Heh, I also heard that someone bragged in front of the whole country that he would use all the prize money to give back to his hometown and build roads for it," Feng Xinran retorted. She just couldn't stand Chen Yu's nouveau riche attitude.
Chen Yu nodded and said, "That is indeed the case."
"Director Qi, I was just about to talk to you about this."
Upon hearing Chen Yu's words, Qi Xiaowei immediately frowned, thinking to himself, "This kid is really planning to use tonight's experience as leverage to try and back out?"
"Haha, Director Qi, don't be nervous. I don't mean anything by it. I just want the leader to introduce me to District Chief Li so I can discuss investing in road construction with him," Chen Yu said with a smile.
"Hmm?" Qi Xiaowei asked, somewhat surprised, "Road repair for free?"
"Of course. Although I, Chen Yu, am not a big shot, I always keep my word," Chen Yu said with a smile.
"Okay, okay, Xiao Chen, I'll call District Chief Li later, and you can go directly to... no, tomorrow morning, I'll go to the district government building with you tomorrow morning!" Qi Xiaowei couldn't hide his excitement.
He knew that the district cared a lot about Chen Yu's donation to repair the road, but not about the amount of money Chen Yu had.
After all, Chen Yu only won a little over 200 million. The district's finances were indeed in a bit of trouble, but they weren't short of Chen Yu's money.
The most important thing is the publicity effect of this event, which has attracted nationwide attention, and even Daxia TV intends to launch a special column to follow up on it.
If Chen Yu can keep his promise and donate the prize money to build roads in his hometown.
The positive publicity for Anping District, and even the entire Zhongyang City, will be immense.
Given Chen Yu's status as an orphan, if this matter is handled properly, it could even escalate to a national-level propaganda effort.
The political significance of this matter far outweighs the road construction itself!
If Qi Xiaowei can act as a go-between and facilitate this matter, it will greatly benefit his personal political achievements.
"Then I'll have to trouble Director Qi." Chen Yu nodded with a faint smile on his face, then got into his car and drove away in a cloud of dust.
Watching Chen Yu's departing figure, Feng Xinran felt a mix of emotions. Are there really people in this world who are willing to make such selfless contributions?
