Zhang Jun did what he said and immediately called his classmate. His classmate was very considerate and said that he would check it right away and call him back later.
"Do you still remember the date when Wang Ping invited you to a banquet?" Zhang Jun asked.
Yuan Fangguo blurted out: "September 28th."
Zhang Jun nodded. "Just remember it. I'll ask my classmates to check if it's a government event or a private invitation."
The two were drinking tea in Zhang Jun's office, and Zhang Jun also asked about Yuan Fangguo's situation over the past six months.
When he learned that the wholesale market's investment promotion work was done quite well, he couldn't help but look pleased.
"This year I'll be keeping an eye on your wholesale market and engine laboratory." Zhang Jun said half-jokingly and half-seriously.
"Secretary Zhang, there are also our construction company and tourism development company." Yuan Fangguo said with a smile.
When Zhang Jun heard this, he also started laughing.
"By the way, how is the travel agency doing? Does your group have any intention of developing it?" Zhang Jun asked.
Yuan Fangguo nodded. Zhang Zhihua had been in charge of this matter before, and he had basically sorted it out. Currently, the survey and design had begun. He planned to invest about 100 million yuan to turn Shuanglong Cave into a 4A-level scenic spot.
"When you finish the design, please show me the design drawings." Zhang Jun said with great anticipation.
Although Rongcheng is a national-level tourist city, many of its attractions are located in the suburbs dozens of kilometers away. Only Beishan Village seems to be a bit remote, but it is only more than ten kilometers away from Jiangliu District in a straight line. If it can really be developed into a tourist destination, it is no exaggeration to say that the profits will be considerable.
When Zhang Jun and Yuan Fangguo were analyzing the broad prospects of developing Shuanglong Cave into a 4A-level scenic spot, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.
Perhaps it was because one was speaking seriously and the other was listening seriously, so both of them were startled.
"My classmate called." Zhang Jun glanced at the caller ID and said.
Yuan Fangguo quickly stopped talking.
Zhang Jun quickly picked up the phone.
…
"Ah? Didn't go?"
…
"The municipal party committee held a standing committee meeting that day..."
…
After Zhang Jun hung up the phone, his first reaction was to remain silent. Instead, he shook his head at Yuan Fangguo and said seriously, "This matter is very strange."
Yuan Fangguo had also gathered some information from Zhang Jun's conversation with his classmate. He quickly asked, "Is it true that Deputy Mayor Wang Dalong never left Jiangnan City?"
Zhang Jun nodded. "Yes, that's what he said. I asked him to verify its authenticity, and he said Wang Dalong's speech was in the minutes of the Standing Committee meeting."
"That's strange, I clearly saw it." Yuan Fangguo was also quite surprised. There were no smartphones in that era. If there were, he might have taken some videos as evidence.
"Could it be that someone is impersonating Wang Dalong?" Zhang Jun frowned.
When Yuan Fangguo heard this, he suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I think this is very likely."
"Well, why don't you give it a try? If there really are two Wang Dalongs, it will be easy to deal with. I will help you verify it later." Zhang Jun suggested.
Yuan Fangguo thought about it and felt that this was a good idea, so he decided to give it a try.
Immediately, in Zhang Jun's office, he called Wang Ping and asked him to help introduce him to Deputy Mayor Wang Dalong of Jiangnan City.
Wang Ping agreed without thinking.
However, during this call, Wang Ping also asked Yuan Fangguo some questions about the shareholders. Yuan Fangguo told Wang Ping that he had talked to several shareholders and they also had the intention to cooperate, but there were still two or three shareholders who were not in the local area and could not be contacted for the time being.
During the phone call, Yuan Fangguo patted his chest and said that he would do his best to persuade them. After all, Wang Ping had a lot of resources in his hands, and any one of them could save them a few years of hard work.
When Wang Ping heard this, he couldn't help but smile. He immediately told Yuan Fangguo that he could invite Deputy Mayor Wang over tomorrow night.
"Thank you, brother. I will treat you to a banquet at the hotel." Yuan Fangguo said with a smile.
"No big deal." Wang Ping said.
After finishing the call with Wang Ping, Zhang Jun quickly arranged two things. One was to ask his old classmate to help keep an eye on Deputy Mayor Wang Dalong tomorrow, and to tell him as soon as he left Jiangnan City. The second thing was to call an executive deputy director of the district public security bureau and the captain of the criminal police brigade into the office.
He asked the two public security officers to accompany Yuan Fangguo to dinner tomorrow, and at the same time he did not forget to instruct the Criminal Police Brigade to send several capable police officers to stake out the hotel.
These two people can be regarded as Zhang Jun's confidants. After listening to it, they had no extra words and expressed their willingness to cooperate.
"Xiao Yuan, let's watch their performance tomorrow." Zhang Jun said.
Yuan Fangguo nodded, he was also looking forward to it.
…
Zhang Jun stayed in touch with his classmates throughout the day, and according to their feedback, Wang Dalong had been in the office all day. After leaving get off work at 6:10 PM, Wang Dalong even went to the office cafeteria to get two meals. The reason for going there was simple: he had a meeting that evening.
At seven o'clock in the evening, Yuan Fangguo arrived at the hotel as scheduled with the deputy director of the district public security bureau and the captain of the criminal police brigade.
Shortly after they sat down, Wang Ping brought Deputy Mayor Wang Dalong into the box.
After some greetings, Yuan Fangguo mentioned the National Day ribbon-cutting ceremony.
Wang Dalong was stunned at first, but after hearing Yuan Fangguo say that he had seen him, he quickly admitted it.
Yuan Fangguo smiled. He had already sensed from Wang Dalong's words that he was not the same person as the real Deputy Mayor Wang Dalong.
"Boss Zhu and I are good friends. Please take care of me in the future, Vice Mayor Wang." Yuan Fangguo raised his glass with a smile.
Boss Zhu is actually a fictional character. Wang Dalong didn't realize it was a trick and nodded to express his hope for more cooperation in the future.
After finishing the glass of wine, Yuan Fangguo smiled mysteriously and said, "Sorry, I have to make a phone call."
Wang Ping and Wang Dalong were stunned for a moment, then said they were just making a casual call.
"Hello, is this the Jiangnan City Government?"
Because the Standing Committee meeting is tonight, Zhang Jun’s classmate is on duty.
"Yes."
"Excuse me, is Vice Mayor Wang Dalong here?"
"Sorry, he's in a standing committee meeting."
When Wang Ping and Wang Dalong heard this, their expressions suddenly changed.
This was a signal between them. Upon seeing this, the Executive Deputy Director and the Criminal Police Squadron Captain also pulled out their pistols.
"Don't move."
This time, Wang Ping and Wang Dalong were even more shocked. Facing the black muzzle of the gun, the two showed completely different expressions.
