Chapter 733 You Took My Place
It has always been the case that those who are rich seek power. Zhou Anan understands the mentality of her elementary school classmates very well.
Before the age of 19, as the second-in-command of Lizhou Underground City, although Zhou Xiaoke seemed to be in a good position on the surface, ordinary people either feared him or looked down on him. He was basically not as respected as he imagined.
Whenever Zhou Xiaoke is alone, he can't help feeling a little lonely.
After what happened in the police station, Zhou Xiaoke realized that everything he had done before was just an illusion.
Zhou Xiaoke is now rich, with an annual income of tens of millions, which makes him quite wealthy.
He has people and several hundred employees under him. He is not big in Lizhou, but he is definitely a big shot in the village.
Everyone else gave him a thumbs up when they talked about him, but because of his messed-up behavior in previous years, Zhou Xiaoke always felt that something was missing in the eyes of others.
When you have money, you always want to be respected by more people.
A few days ago, the village held a pre-registration campaign for the postponed village chief election. Encouraged by several peers in the village, I decided to run for village chief.
After much thought, he felt that he still needed some status, and becoming the village chief was undoubtedly the best choice to establish prestige among the villagers.
"If you want to vote, you have to think carefully about how to be the village chief after you become the village chief."
Zhou Anan neither opposed nor supported Zhou Xiaoke's idea, but instead raised a very direct question.
Being a village chief is not enough just by being elected, you also have to do your job well and truly do something for the villagers.
Although there are always a lot of trivial matters in the village, and people's hearts are both good and bad, there have always been people who flatter others in public and envy, jealousy and hate behind their backs.
But Zhou Anan, who grew up in Zhoujia Village, still has a desire to repay, of course not including those "enemies" with whom she has grudges.
It just so happened that he himself didn't like to show up, so he could completely use Zhou Xiaoke as a link to make up for his idea of helping his relatives and friends when he was successful.
The most important thing is that he had previously thought about how to get his relatives and elders to have physical examinations to prevent problems before they happen, so he had a general idea.
After Zhou Xiaoke becomes the village chief, he can provide villagers with the benefit of going to the People's Hospital for physical examinations.
Of course, the specific plan still needs to be considered.
As for whether Zhou Xiaoke could become the village chief, Zhou Anan had no doubt at all.
Not to mention that Zhou Xiaoke's peers have grown up and are very capable in canvassing votes, based on Zhou Xiaoke's strength alone, he has almost no rivals in the election for village chief.
In the countryside with simple folk customs, the one who has money is the boss, and this is not an empty saying.
There are also many people who firmly believe that if a rich person becomes a village chief, he will not only seek benefits for himself, but will also sincerely do practical things for the village.
"That's why I came here to ask for your opinion first. I have no experience in being a village chief."
Touching his buzz cut, Zhou Xiaoke said somewhat embarrassedly.
When others said that before, he was just impulsive for a moment. Now that he thinks about it, he is really unsure if he really becomes the village chief.
"I have no experience in being a village chief."
Waving his hands, Zhou Anan replied speechlessly, but did not continue to tease the other party, and directly offered advice: "But, you have never seen a pig being killed, but you have seen a pig running."
It seems that when he was a child, his family often slaughtered pigs during the Chinese New Year.
"When you are a village chief, there are only two purposes: one is to seek benefits for yourself, and the other is to seek benefits for everyone. Since you don't care about the little benefits in the village anyway, you basically have to go for the latter."
The next decade or so was a decade of rapid development in China's infrastructure. Zhou Anan was even more aware of the changes in Lizhou, especially in several key rural areas.
The most eye-catching of these is Yuanzhou Village. The city government directly allocated hundreds of millions of dollars to develop the Great Wall scenic spot. Every household in the village has a villa, and it can be said that every household is well-off, which makes others envious.
The second is the film and television base developed in Xixi, which has become quite famous after several years of development.
However, neither of the above is easy to imitate. The former lacks some upper-level energy, while the latter lacks funds and land.
However, Zhou Anan was very clear about the classic development routes of some small rural villages, as he had accompanied his girlfriend there for travel in his previous life.
For example, Wanhua Town; for example, Moonlight over the Lotus Pond; for example, the Glass Plank Road.
"With so many, which direction should we choose?"
Zhou Xiaoke was not too surprised when he heard about the development directions of his elementary school classmates. However, there were too many ideas and he could not remember some of them.
The other party is a cultured person, and the knowledge he has is far beyond the reach of a mere uncultured man like him.
"I'm sorry, I said a lot of things. You should plan these things in detail after you become the village chief. Given the geographical environment of our village, there are not many development directions to choose from."
Zhou Anan, who was talking till her mouth was dry, drank some warm tea, smiled and stopped talking about this topic which was still in the imaginary stage.
He only had a rough idea of those things, and if he really wanted to realize them, he had to have professionals inspect them before deciding.
Adapting to local conditions is the best way to achieve sustainable development.
"Okay, after listening to what you said today, I have a better idea. I will discuss it with some friends when I get back."
Although he didn’t quite understand his elementary school classmates’ thinking, Zhou Xiaoke felt confident and enthusiastically prepared to start his campaign to run for village chief.
When he leads the whole village to prosperity, he will be considered successful.
"Well, but there is one thing you should be careful about. Don't go too far when canvassing for votes."
"Don't worry, I know this."
"That's good."
After talking about business, Zhou Anan was dragged up by the other party to experience a vegan health massage, which relieved the fatigue of the past few days.
Lying on the massage bed, Zhou Anan thought about the three unclear factions in the village, and felt that there was an eighty-nine percent chance that Zhou Xiaoke would take the lead, so she didn't think too much about it.
After a few minutes, a slight snoring sound was heard, and the young female masseuse next to her subconsciously reduced the force.
As the year draws to a close, the festive atmosphere becomes stronger, but it is not time for Zhou Anan to go home yet, especially because there will be an annual meeting of Blue Whale Entertainment on the night of the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month.
To be precise, it is the annual meeting of cooperation between Blue Whale Entertainment and Celebrity Group.
Previously, Zhou Anan was at a high-level meeting of Mingliu Group and heard the CEO talking about the company's annual meeting, and he mentioned the arrangements of Blue Whale Entertainment.
CEO Qi immediately became interested and said that the two companies could jointly hold the annual meeting, which would not only save costs but also allow their employees to see those big stars up close, which would be a great benefit.
Zhou Anan did not intervene directly in this matter. As soon as General Manager Feng was contacted, the two of them hit it off, and thus the annual meeting of the two companies' cooperation was held.
"Isn't this scene a bit too superficial?"
Sitting at the main table next to the stage, Zhou Anan looked at the huge banquet hall full of people, then gestured to the large stage in front of him and said.
Although Blue Whale Entertainment and Celebrity Group have arranged a lot of programs, the stage is a bit exaggerated, and most importantly, it looks expensive.
"What's so frivolous about this? Compared to the annual meeting venue in TX, this is just a small event."
General Manager Feng, who was standing next to him, was a little bit dissatisfied when he heard what the major shareholder said.
If the company hadn't launched so many big projects this year, he would have wanted to make this annual meeting more lively.
However, with the participation of the celebrity group, the excitement was almost as good as he had expected.
"Boss, I think this scene is about right. After all, our two companies are not small."
Qi Liang on the other side echoed with a smile.
"Wow, it's quite lively. Big Head, move over a bit, you're taking my seat."
