The two of them greeted each other warmly.
Last time, Chen Feijin not only helped to fix the crown, but also secretly told Lin Meng not to drive in idle, which was a big help to Lin Meng.
"Secretary Lin, why are you here?" Chen Feijin asked curiously.”
"Hi, I'm bringing our leader to the construction site. Our foreign trade department has built a new dormitory building. The water pipe that was originally laid has broken, so I'm going to bring the leader back to take a look.”
"A water pipe broke? What's going on?" Chen Feijin asked.
"What else could it be? It's just that the water pipe broke when we were building the foundation. We were contacting the water pipe company, but they told us that there was no water pipe and that we had to wait.”
Chen Feijin thought for a moment and said,
"Secretary Lin, I just contracted the steel factory of our Dongfanghong Machinery Factory. I'll get someone to pull a batch of water pipes for you.”
"That's great!" Lin Meng said happily.”
"It's a small matter. Don't stand on ceremony with me."
Lin Meng was not only a driver, but also a secretary. She was a meticulous person. He believed that Chen Feijin would not help casually, so he asked,
"Master Chen, what are you doing here?”
Indeed, it was easier to deal with smart people.
Chen Feijin said generously,
"Our steel mill wanted to participate in the Guangzhou Fair and came to fill in the information. In the end, they said that we did not meet the requirements and directly rejected us.”
Chen Feijin didn't hide anything from Lin Meng and was very polite.
The leader's chauffeur was equivalent to a personal bodyguard and nanny. He usually followed the leader around and was familiar with the leader's various habits.
Those drivers who were " capable " could become the leader's " own people " and would definitely be promoted in the future.
Even if they were not promoted, many people would take the initiative to curry favor with their leaders.
Needless to say, the secretary of the leader was a little tired, but the rewards were obvious.
Lin Meng could hold both positions at the same time. It was obvious how important he was to the leaders.
Lin Meng naturally understood what Chen Feijin meant.
"It's not easy to get a quota for the Guangzhou Fair. I'll try and see if I can get one for you."”
Chen Feijin was not familiar with the Department of Foreign Trade and Economics at all, and the leaders did not know him at all. Since someone had made a move, of course, he was more than happy to do so.
"That's great. Do you need me to give you some gifts?”Chen Feijin asked sensibly.
In this day and age, it was not good to ask for help empty-handed. Giving gifts was basic etiquette.
Don't think that it's easy. Many times, you can't give a gift even if you want to.
He wasn't stupid. If he lost his iron rice bowl for such a small advantage, the gains would definitely not make up for the losses.
Lin Meng nodded." The old leader likes to drink and smoke. Just buy some cigarettes and alcohol."”
Therefore, Chen Feijin immediately prepared Maotai and Huazi.
Fortunately, it was not difficult to buy Maotai these days. Basically, one could buy it with money.
……
Li Rongxiang left the office with a heavy heart and got into the car.
There was an accident in the new dormitory that was being built in the Provincial Party Committee Compound. Logically speaking, this matter had nothing to do with him.
The problem was that the construction company was his brother-in-law.
If the matter blew up and he was investigated, he would definitely not be able to escape.
"Sigh, it was originally a simple matter. How could there be such a big mistake?”
Li Rongxiang rubbed her temples and asked,"
"Xiao Lin, how is the matter going? Have you found a suitable steel pipe?"
"I found it. I happened to meet the director of Dongfanghong Steel Plant today. They immediately agreed to provide a batch of steel pipes for free.”
Li Rongxiang looked up. If Lin Meng hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten about the Dongfanghong Steel Plant.
The other party was easy to communicate with and actually agreed so readily.
Lin Meng didn't hide anything. She directly told him about Chen Feijin's participation in the Guangzhou Fair. She also deliberately said that Chen Feijin had used the back door to find her, and that he had prepared Maotai and Huazi in the trunk.
Leaders liked subordinates who were honest with themselves and hypocritical to others.
Li Rongxiang also knew that Lin Meng's honesty was actually helping Chen Fei get in through the back door.
Since Lin Meng had said that she was here through the back door, Li Rongxiang couldn't just sit back and do nothing.
As a leader, he sometimes needed to help his subordinates with some things. This way, he could increase the loyalty of his subordinates and make them work for him wholeheartedly.
From another perspective, the reason why these subordinates were willing to follow the leader was because the leader had power in his hands and could help solve the problem! If the leader didn't help with anything, then who would be loyal to the leader?
The Department of Foreign Trade and Economics had hundreds of quotas to participate in the Guangzhou Fair every year. It did not matter if there was one more or one less.
Now that half of a difficult problem had been solved, he had even given her a gift. It was reasonable for him to help out as easily as lifting a finger.
Therefore, Li Rongxiang said,"
"We can't always rely on selling coal, iron ore, and oil to earn foreign exchange. An international exhibition like the Guangzhou Fair should also give industrial products more opportunities.”
"How about this? When we go back, help me pass a message. Tell them to give this steel factory a quota for the Guangzhou Fair.”
Meeting Lin Meng was a pleasant surprise. From the result, it was a good thing.
It really came true that it was easy to do things with someone.
Chen Feijin brought a group of employees to the site of the Guangzhou Trade Fair. Although the Guangzhou Trade Fair had not started and the venue was still in a state of decoration, many foreigners could already be seen around the venue.
Chen Feijin was already used to seeing foreigners, but Wu Tianqi, Cai Wangkai, and the others had not seen much of the world. They felt that every foreigner was very strange.
Especially the foreign girls, all of them boldly wore low-cut shirts, which made the old man Wu Tianqi unable to stand it.
" How immoral and shameless..." Wu Tianqi muttered. Her eyes were wide open and she was about to drool.
Chen Feijin looked at this scene speechlessly and somewhat regretted bringing this fellow along.
Entering the venue, it was a busy scene.
The staff was setting up the exhibit, and Chen Feijin could be considered to have visited the exhibition in advance.
Each exhibition area did not occupy a large area. The layout of the exhibition area was more like the counters of a department store. On the rows of shelves, there were all kinds of displays.
Tea, silk, and porcelain were all relatively large exhibition areas. In addition to the few units designated by the Ministry of Foreign Trade to participate in the exhibition, various provinces also brought such enterprises.
Chen Feijin brought the staff to work. Speaking of which, their booth was pitifully small. It was the smallest.
In this regard, Chen Feijin was also helpless. He had already done his best to help get a booth. He could not ask for too much.
Dongfanghong Steel Plant had brought various types of gas tanks and steel pipes of different thickness.
Wu Tianqi had never understood why her factory director liked big.
Gas tanks had to be thick and big, and so did steel pipes.
Most importantly, the metal frames were also strange. Other people's frames were straight, but their own frames were slanted.
The arrangement of the steel pipe was even more ridiculous. It was also slanted, and there were two wheels fixed at the bottom. Did you think this was a cannon?
