You know, Luo Songling is now a favorite of the provincial party secretary. He has recently joined the standing committee and is in the limelight. It is said that his entry into the standing committee was directly announced by a big shot in the central government.
Suddenly, when everyone looked at Tang Xiaobao, their eyes changed.
Nowadays, no matter how successful a businessman is, he is just a businessman in the political world, and perhaps in the eyes of many officials, he is just that.
Tang Xiaobao was helpless and said with a smile: "Uncle Luo, I really didn't know you were coming."
"That's right, I wasn't planning to come, but this project was funded by you, so I thought it would be a good opportunity to meet you. By the way, I'm very busy and have to go back in the afternoon. The wine you brewed last time was good, so can you give me a few more bottles? Is that okay?" Luo Songling was really rude.
Tang Xiaobao was embarrassed: "Several bottles are not enough, one bottle is about right."
"Are you stingy?"
"Really not."
"Okay, okay, okay. However, I brought someone with me this time. You can meet him later." Luo Songling agreed reluctantly, but blinked at Tang Xiaobao mysteriously.
Then, without waiting for Tang Xiaobao to ask, Luo Songling had already shaken hands with Shen Mengyao and Xiong Hanlin.
Qi Hanliang shook hands with Tang Xiaobao and said with a smile, "Mr. Tang, nice to meet you, nice to meet you."
"This is Director Qi Hanliang of the Provincial Department of Transportation," Wang Gang introduced.
"Director Qi, nice to meet you, nice to meet you."
Everyone sat down and chatted for a while, then Wang Gang's secretary came in and said that everything was ready.
Immediately, the government sent a car to take the distinguished guests who were attending the ribbon-cutting ceremony to the scene.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony was packed with people, and countless media outlets had their cameras set up.
There were indeed thousands of onlookers, and the scene was packed. Fortunately, there were hundreds of police officers maintaining order at the scene today. Although there were many people, the scene was still orderly.
Tang Xiaobao saw Wei Bing from a distance, but did not see Wei Donglai.
Wei Bing waved to Tang Xiaobao, indicating that he still had to be on duty.
Ma Ming and several contractor bosses arrived earlier. After everyone got to know each other, shook hands, and exchanged a few words, the ceremony began.
The ceremony was simple yet grand.
Director Qi of the Provincial Party Committee spoke on behalf of the Provincial Party Committee, and Wang Gang of the Municipal Party Committee delivered a speech in person, but Luo Songling declined.
Then, Chen Mengyao spoke a few words on behalf of Shenlong Group, and the host announced the official start of the ribbon-cutting ceremony.
But as soon as the host finished speaking, the crowd around him suddenly shouted.
"Tang Xiaobao!"
"Tang Xiaobao!"
"Tang Xiaobao!"
At first, only a few people shouted, but later more and more people joined in, and eventually there were thousands of people shouting Tang Xiaobao's name in unison.
Tang Xiaobao was ashamed.
The group of leaders were also a little embarrassed, and the host was speechless.
As expected of being the best pillar of the city TV station, this host is quite talented. He picked up the microphone and shouted a few times with everyone, causing the crowd to laugh.
Then he asked everyone to be quiet for a while.
The host smiled and asked, "I know that Mr. Tang is now the pride of all of Bazhong City. The fact that the Bazhong-Wanzhou Expressway can be started is also a major achievement of Mr. Tang. I'd like to ask, are you all here to see Mr. Tang?"
"Yes!" the crowd shouted.
"I know you all, like me, admire Mr. Tang very much and would like to invite him to come up on stage and say a few words, right?"
"right!"
The host smiled and said, "Okay, then let's give Mr. Tang a round of applause and let him say a few words. However, this part hasn't been rehearsed. It was added at the last minute. If it doesn't work out, you can't blame me."
The crowd below laughed, but still clapped together.
Tang Xiaobao was forced to do something he was not prepared for.
There was no choice, Tang Xiaobao had to go on stage.
Since ancient times.
Oh, that's not right.
Tang Xiaobao has always been very funny when he speaks on stage.
But today's occasion is different, and he is really not prepared. Asking him to speak any big principles or nice words would be embarrassing for him.
He wouldn't really say anything against his will just because of such an occasion.
So, his speech consisted of only one sentence.
"Okay, since you guys want to see me, I'll come up. Thank you all for your enthusiasm. Um, let's hurry up and cut the ribbon. I'm hungry, so I have to go eat after I'm done. Xinwen Township is in the Xingxin Development Zone of Bazhong City. I heard the food in the guesthouse here is good, and I can't wait. Okay, that's all."
After saying that, Tang Xiaobao stepped down.
Hey, no applause, Tang Xiaobao felt a little embarrassed.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Is this Tang Xiaobao’s speech?
Is it too hasty?
Isn’t it a bit too simple?
However, it seemed quite interesting. The officials and bosses were also dumbfounded.
I couldn't help but sigh in my heart.
Awesome!
In such an occasion, I guess only Tang Xiaobao would dare to speak like this.
Next, the crowd applauded so loudly that it almost overturned the venue.
"Hey, is this your speech?" Chen Mengyao asked in a low voice.
She couldn't hold it in anymore and had an uncontrollable smile on her face.
Tang Xiaobao hehe.
The host was also amused.
After the ribbon-cutting, everyone shoveled a few shovels of dirt together and the ceremony was over.
Chen Mengyao had something to deal with at the company, so she left first. Tang Xiaobao and a group of guests were invited to the guesthouse for lunch.
The luncheon was attended by media, on-site staff, provincial and municipal party leaders, investors and contractors.
However, the lunch was not particularly sumptuous, but the atmosphere was good.
Tang Xiaobao sat together with several provincial and municipal leaders, and received interviews from several media outlets. He accepted all of them, but this time he was much more honest and careful in his speech.
The media cannot be offended. When facing the media, you must never speak carelessly and your language must be precise. Tang Xiaobao has a lot of experience in this.
During the banquet, the atmosphere was lively and noisy.
The municipal party committee came to toast, and several contractors also came to toast.
The ones who were respected the most were the two big bosses of the provincial party committee and Tang Xiaobao.
Oh, Ma Ming is also having a great day today.
Thanks to Tang Xiaobao, he was forced to drink a lot of alcohol by people from several road construction companies.
The lunch was over and the guests had a great time. Those who needed to leave had left. Tang Xiaobao also drank some wine and was about to say goodbye and leave.
Luo Songling quickly grabbed him and said, "Hey, where's my wine?"
"Hey, look at my memory. Wait, I'll get it from the car."
Tang Xiaobao returned to the car, pretended to open the trunk, but took out a bottle of wine from the magic ring.
It was indeed brewed by him, and there was only one bottle left. He had originally planned to give it to Wei Donglai as a birthday present, but now that Luo Songling wanted it, he had no choice but to give it up.
But when he returned, a beautiful girl suddenly jumped out from behind Luo Songling.
Luo Yuzhu.
Tang Xiaobao always felt that this beauty looked familiar, but he didn't recognize her for a moment.
"Brother Tang."
Luo Yuzhu blushed slightly and winked at Tang Xiaobao.
Tang Xiaobao was a little confused and looked at Luo Songling.
