Zhou Mo saw the determination for revenge and the burning anger in Han Chen's eyes.
She felt a chill in her heart.
This kind of vengeful Han Chen was a Han Chen she had never seen before.
Rampant and eerie.
…
Wednesday.
Zhou Mo attended the talent introduction summit with Shen Qingyi.
Of course, Qi Yan also came along.
He bought a big bouquet of flowers and said that when Qi Tan stepped down from the stage after being commended, he would rush up to give him the first bouquet of flowers.
Zhou Mo told him to stay in his seat and not run around.
The conference hall is not small. Many tables and chairs in the front row have been removed to make room for integrated media and publicity agencies and departments such as various units and TV stations. It is more grand than a press conference.
Zhou Mo followed Shen Qingyi forward.
Shen Qingyi met many leaders he knew and couldn't help but chat and greet them.
But before the show starts, we have to confirm whether the PPT can be played normally, in case of any problems or confusion. This step needs to be handled by Zhou Mo, and Shen Qingyi is unable to spare the time.
The sound testers backstage have already started debugging the equipment.
Inside the venue, people attending the meeting came in and took their seats one after another.
Zhou Mo came out from the small door in the backstage, which was connected to the corridor outside the venue. As soon as she went out, she saw a group of people in elegant and neat clothes walking towards her.
The leader was Secretary Qin, and the person talking to him on his right was Qi Tan.
He had obviously dressed up specially today. His hair was gelled and combed back. He was meticulous in his appearance. He wore a simple black suit and white shirt without a tie. He looked cautious but not rigid.
Of course, he saw Zhou Mo as he was walking in the front row, but he was only stunned for a moment, then turned his head and continued talking to Secretary Qin.
Zhou Mo waited for the group to arrive, went to the bathroom, and then returned to the venue and found his seat.
Half past nine.
The meeting started on time.
The meeting was hosted by a director of the health department. After he finished speaking, the first person to speak was naturally Secretary Qin.
Secretary Qin spoke from top to bottom. He first talked about the implementation of national health policies, citing documents from above, then some policies on local medical and health talents in Dongjiang, and then moved on to last year's flood control and disaster relief, showing off the great achievements and pointing out the outstanding representative among them - Qitan.
He also said that most of the people selected at the previous commendation conference were from the front-line personnel. As the reserve force for flood control, their function cannot be ignored. After introducing Qi Tan's achievements, he pointed out that Qi Tan would be given a special commendation later. This is also a demonstration effect, allowing talents who are willing to choose Dongjiang to see that as long as they are "willing to pay", they can get honors and rewards.
Since there was a question-and-answer session at the end of the meeting, the "talents" and reporters attending the meeting could ask questions, and there were dedicated people on site to answer these questions, including some substantive issues, such as whether they would be given a staffing position, whether there would be any housing purchase discounts after settling down, etc.
After Qin Zhenghua's speech, the next step was to commend Qi Tan.
After the host finished the introduction, the award ceremony background music sounded, Qi Tan came on stage from the front desk, and the award presenter was Secretary Qin.
After the two finished presenting the awards, they stood side by side, letting the shutter buttons flash below the stage.
Afterwards, Qi Tan gave a speech to express his gratitude for the award.
Zhou Mo felt nothing, but Qi Yan listened with great interest. Seeing that Qi Tan's acceptance speech was about to end, he picked up the flowers beside him and rushed to where Qi Tan was leaving the stage.
"Brother, congratulations," Qi Yan said with a smile.
Qi Tan looked at the flowers in front of him and took them awkwardly, "Why are you here?"
Qi Yan: "Your winning of the award is such a big deal, of course I have to come and see it."
Qi Tan looked around warily. "With so many people here, what would it look like if someone saw us? Are you afraid that others won't know our relationship?"
Qi Yan didn't think so much, but seeing Qi Tan's unhappy tone, he knew that he had done something wrong again.
"I'm sorry, brother..."
"Let's go back," Qi Tan held the flowers and turned to leave.
After walking a few steps, a staff member immediately came forward and took the flowers from Qi Tan's hand.
Without blinking, Qi Tan handed the bouquet of flowers to the staff member who came up.
Qi Yan felt a little sad and returned to his seat in a lack of interest.
"What's wrong?" Zhou Mo asked.
"Nothing," Qi Yan said, "My brother doesn't seem to like me sending him flowers."
Zhou Mo thought about it and said, "Not really, right?"
Qi Yan: "He really doesn't like others to know about my relationship with him."
Zhou Mo: "Do you think you're too ostentatious?"
Qi Yan: "Yeah."
Zhou Mo didn't know what to say, so he just comforted her, "It's okay. He must know your kindness, otherwise he wouldn't have accepted that bouquet of flowers. He has his reasons. Maybe... he's just a cautious person."
Qi Yan: "He wasn't like this when he was in the imperial capital before."
Zhou Mo: "What was he like before?"
Qi Yan: "He would often come to see me at school, and he would ask the driver to pick me up, take me out to eat, and send me and my sister out to play."
Zhou Mo felt that Qi Yan's words were a little strange, but he also felt that there was no big problem.
"Your brother and Yan Yi also know each other?"
"Uh..." Qi Yan lost his voice in an instant, his back stiffened, his head buzzed, and he was at a loss.
Zhou Mo said calmly: "Come to think of it, Yan Yi knows you, so how could he not know your brother?"
She had never associated these two people together before, but now... it felt weird.
It always feels reasonable and unreasonable.
"Hmm," Qi Yan only responded sullenly, not daring to speak any more.
His heart was beating fast. Qi Tan had warned him not to talk about the capital, but he almost let it slip...
Policy representatives began to present policies and plans.
This should be the most noteworthy part of the meeting.
Zhou Mo simply listened. After all, as a PhD and a local, she also wanted to see whether she met the definition of "talent" and what benefits and preferential treatment she could get in the future.
However, for scientific research talents, PhDs and postdoctoral degrees are nothing, and they have already been involved in the titles of "young professors" and "outstanding scholars".
Zhou Mo immediately gave up.
She couldn't beat others, so she gave up.
"Buzz--" Qi Yan's cell phone suddenly rang twice.
He took a look and immediately said to Zhou Mo anxiously: "Senior Sister, I have something urgent to do. I have to go out for a while."
"What's wrong?" Zhou Mo asked worriedly.
"Nothing," Qi Yan couldn't lie, so he could only deal with it vaguely.
He didn't dare to explain any more, so he just walked away and said, "I'm going to go out for a while, and I'll be back soon."
While Zhou Mo was still wondering, Qi Yan had already hurried out of the venue with his phone in hand.
Zhou Mo didn't think much about it. After waiting for a while, he saw Qi Tan, who was sitting in the front row, suddenly stand up, say hello to the people around him, and leave quietly without making a sound.
Qi Yan and Qi Tan left one after another... Zhou Mo couldn't help but wonder what was going on with these two brothers.
Out of curiosity, Zhou Mo secretly followed him out.
