"Oh, Li Lin stayed at Minister Li Lan's house last night. I guess he's on his way to the hotel now. Secretary, please wait a moment. I'll ask him to call you back later." Liang Xiangwen said with a smile.
He could have easily said that Li Lin had just gone out to do some business and would be back soon, but he deliberately told Peng Yutao the gossipy news that Li Lin was living in Li Lan's house.
Peng Yutao was stunned when he heard this. He had heard that Li Lin and Li Lan were not biological siblings... they were living together, this was a lot of information...
He didn't know what to say anymore, so he just reminded her, "Tell Li Lin to call me back as soon as possible," and then hung up.
After hanging up the phone, Peng Yutao was still a little dazed. He was curious about the real relationship between Li Lin and Li Lan.
...
Li Lin returned to the hotel and went straight to Liang Xiangwen's room.
When Liang Xiangwen saw Li Lin coming back, he quickly stood up and said to him, "Xiao Lin, call Secretary Peng right away. He's been waiting for news from us like crazy!"
Li Lin frowned when he heard this, thinking, are you the minister or am I the minister? Besides, you heard what Director Liu said when we met last night. Why didn't you report directly to Peng Yutao? Why did you have to wait for me?
After a little thought, Li Lin understood what Liang Xiangwen'an was thinking.
He must have felt that there was still a lot of uncertainty in this matter and was afraid that it would not be accomplished in the end. So he simply pushed all the blame on Li Lin, so that he could get himself off the hook, and if things failed to be accomplished, all the responsibility would be Li Lin's!
This old guy is so damn smart, it doesn’t hurt that he has a bald head!
"Fight you? Secretary Peng and Mayor Qian are waiting to hear your report!" Liang Xiangwen urged when he saw that Li Lin was unmoved.
Li Lin's brows relaxed, and he sat down on the sofa. After thinking for a while, he said to Liang Xiangwen, "Minister Liang, don't rush me. Let me make a phone call to confirm before reporting to the city leaders."
"You've already met with all the leaders you should meet with. Whether this thing can be accomplished has already been decided. Who else can you call at this time?" Liang Xiangwen asked in confusion.
Who to call? I'm not fucking telling you!
Li Lin said to Liang Xiangwen calmly, "Minister, please be patient and wait for me for two minutes!"
After saying that, he stood up and walked outside, then quickly walked into an empty room, closed the door, and called Song Siyao.
"Director Song, I'm Li Lin..."
Song Siyao was pleasantly surprised and smiled, "Xiaolin, are you getting impatient? Don't worry, Director Liu and I mobilized all the resources we can in the station as soon as we got to work today, and we are helping you solve the problem in Pingyang!"
Li Lin breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that Li Lan, his best friend, had not let him down this time. He smiled and said, "Master Song, you have worked hard. Please thank Master Liu for me. I would like to ask, how long will it take to reduce the negative public opinion on the Internet to a minimum?"
"Hmm..." Song Siyao pushed the frame of her glasses, pouted her lips, looked up and thought for a while, then said, "Half an hour later, I will press the enter key and click the confirmation button, and all the negative news about Pingyang will be lost on the Internet! If it's not an accurate search, I guarantee that no one will see this news anymore!"
Li Lin had expected this result, so he was not particularly surprised to hear the news. He nodded calmly and said to Song Siyao on the other end of the phone, "Okay, Director Song, I would like to thank the provincial station for its help on behalf of the Pingyang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government!"
Song Siyao smiled mischievously, "You, stop calling me the station director. I'm just like your sister Lan, you can just call me sister... I told your sister Lan that when you're done, I'll treat you to spicy hot pot. Last time I left Shannan County without saying goodbye, I hope you can understand that I really had no choice at that time!"
Li Lin did not expect Song Siyao to mention the public opinion incident in Shannan County. In fact, Li Lin had never blamed Song Siyao, and was even still grateful to her.
He smiled and said to Song Siyao in a gentle tone, "Sister Siyao, ever since Sister Lan told me about your relationship, I have not treated you as an outsider. Otherwise, I would not have dared to call you today."
Sister Siyao? How sweet you call her.
Song Siyao felt warm in her heart, and she said to Li Lin softly like a big sister next door, "Xiao Lin, I'm glad you think so. No matter what happens in the future, as long as I, your sister, can help, just call me directly. My phone is on 24 hours a day for you!"
"Okay Sister Siyao..."
Hang up the phone.
With Song Siyao's affirmative answer, Li Lin already had a clue in his mind.
Half an hour later, the negative news about Pingyang Cotton Mill will completely disappear from the public eye!
He thought about it, picked up the phone and called Qian Lingyun directly.
That's right, he did not follow Liang Xiangwen's instructions to call Peng Yutao back first, but chose to report the good news to Qian Lingyun first.
At this time, in the meeting room of Pingyang Municipal Party Committee.
Peng Yutao, Qian Lingyun and other city leaders are anxiously waiting for news.
Peng Yutao looked at the phone in his hand from time to time, wondering, why hasn't Li Lin called back yet?
Just then, Qian Lingyun's cell phone rang.
Everyone present was shocked and looked up at Qian Lingyun, curious about who was calling.
Qian Lingyun looked at Li Lin's name on the phone screen and frowned slightly. He knew that Peng Yutao was also waiting for Li Lin's call, but Li Lin called him first.
In order to avoid embarrassing Peng Yutao, Qian Lingyun quietly stood up, walked to an empty office outside the meeting room, and answered Li Lin's call.
"Xiao Lin, how's the matter going?" Qian Lingyun asked straight to the point, because he knew that as long as Li Lin called, it must mean that the matter had come to a conclusion.
Li Lin replied calmly, "Mayor Qian, I just received a positive response from Deputy Director Liu of the Provincial TV Station. In half an hour, all negative news about Pingyang City on the Internet will be removed."
Qian Lingyun was very surprised, a smile slowly appeared on his face, and he said happily, "I knew that you would be able to solve this matter satisfactorily. Okay, you can call Peng Yutao back now!"
After hanging up the phone and returning to the conference room, Peng Yutao looked at Qian Lingyun curiously and was surprised to find that the nervous look on Qian Lingyun's face had disappeared...
He asked Qian Lingyun curiously, "Old Qian, is there any good news?"
Qian Lingyun smiled and said, "Oh, it's my child at home calling to tell me that his grades have been good recently..."
Peng Yutao didn't doubt what he said, and sighed secretly, thinking to himself, you, Old Qian, are really generous. You can still laugh at this time!
Just at this moment, Peng Yutao's cell phone rang.
Except for Qian Lingyun, everyone present felt their hearts tighten and they all looked at Peng Yutao.
Peng Yutao answered the phone and asked impatiently, "Li Lin, how is the matter going?"
