Chapter 55.1 Table of contents

“The foundation laying ceremony of the Yanjiang Bridge project is about to begin. Please provide the opening remarks for the acting mayor, Mr. Jiang Xiaochuan, at this groundbreaking ceremony.”

Jiang Xiaochuan stood on the platform of the foundation laying ceremony of the Yanjiang Bridge. Under the stage were officials from the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Governments, as well as major TV stations and journalists.

After finishing his speech, Jiang Xiaochuan took a shovel and filled the first handful of soil for the entire groundbreaking ceremony.

He accepted his fate yesterday at the National People’s Congress. He didn’t expend much effort at all. The whole process went so smoothly that it was almost unbelievable.

Jiang Xiaochuan passed the vote almost unanimously. Peng Shuyi, director of the Municipal People’s Congress, had an expression of appreciation when he read out the voting results and seemed very pleased.

Peng Shuyi used to be the deputy secretary of the Chengzhou Municipal Party Committee, but after the new personnel changes in Chengzhou, he was transferred to the Municipal People’s Congress by Li Dakai. On the surface, the director of the Municipal People’s Congress was still one of the four giants in Chengzhou politics, and he was too idle. No matter how idle the position was, he never imagined that he would end up in the position he was in now. Generally, officials who were thrown into this position, would have their political career come to an end, and there were very few who could climb up to the level of real power.

To put it bluntly, Peng Shuyi, director of the Municipal People’s Congress, was always a politician.

But his relationship with Qu Zhendong seemed to be pretty good.

Jiang Xiaochuan had a brief exchange with Peng Shuyi during the last military training report performance in Chengzhou. From that time, Jiang Xiaochuan inferred that Peng Shuyi had a good relationship with Qu Zhendong. But when he thought about it, Jiang Xiaochuan felt that something was wrong.

If Peng Shuyi had a good relationship with Qu Zhendong, Deputy Secretary Of The Provincial Party Committee, then what was the reason that caused Peng Shuyi to move from the actual position of deputy secretary to the useless position of director of the municipal people’s congress?

The situation at the Municipal Party Committee seemed to be unexpectedly complicated.

So, at this moment, Jiang Xiaochuan looked at the chairman of Lisson Group and felt that the whole thing was getting more and more incredible.

The project of the Yanjiang Bridge had nothing to do with the Lisson Group. However, because of Lisson Group’s illustrious reputation, celebrities were invited to lay the foundation stone this time. They were lucky enough to invite Qiu Yu, the president of the Lisson Group headquarters, which really made the entire municipal government a little excited.

In contrast, Rong Shaobai, who was also invited to the groundbreaking ceremony, was less conspicuous.

.

When the time was up, Jiang Xiaochuan spread the first handful of soil with the light shovel, and then everyone buried a few handfuls together. When it was over, Jiang Xiaochuan saw Rong Shaobai’s expression calmly, with a smile on his lips, and his heart suddenly felt bad.

Rong Shaobai showed such an expression, which was really strange.

Qiu Yu was a very beautiful and elegant woman, but she was very old, probably in her fifties. From her facial features, people could see that she was very charming back then. This woman was in a high position and she had the aura of a superior. At first glance, she might just look like a noble lady, but when they looked into her eyes again, they would find it quite intimidating – she was a president of a multinational group.

Today, when foreign companies generally employed younger people, a woman in her fifties who could still sit on the throne of president must be a very capable woman.

After the groundbreaking ceremony, Qiu Yu shook hands with Jiang Xiaochuan, and the corners of her eyes like crow’s feet became even more wrinkled, “Mayor Jiang, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

“I have admired President Qiu for a long time. You are our lucky star in Chengzhou.” Jiang Xiaochuan had a good impression of this woman. She was a very friendly and capable woman. Time had left her not only with age, but also with a calm and majestic charm.

Rong Shaobai just watched from the side, and soon started talking with officials from the National Development and Reform Commission.

With the gradual implementation of Lisson Group’s investment projects in Chengzhou and the support of government policies, Chengzhou’s economy was showing a promising trend. But hidden in Jiang Xiaochuan’s heart was a deep worry.

The issue of state-owned enterprise reform had always been a thorn in Jiang Xiaochuan’s throat that couldn’t be removed or swallowed.

He talked with Qiu Yu for a few words, and then organized a dinner party.
