Chapter 44 Watching the fun is not a big deal
Updated: 2012-07-18
"Bang!"
At the Pengyue Golf Practice Range in Chengnan, Zhou Zhibai watched Gao Xiaohu answer a call and then threw the phone out with a "splash". The brand new Motorola phone fell into a pile of parts on the corridor column with decorative stones, which made people feel secretly heartbroken when they saw it.
Zhou Zhibai sat on a skinned ring chair, rubbed the titanium alloy club with a cloth, and looked at the high net around the court. The sky outside the high net was clear, and seemed to ignore Gao Xiaohu's reaction.
Gao Tianhe is burly, but Gao Xiaohu is quite thin and has a dark face. At this time, it is so dark that it looks like the bottom of a pot. Zhou Zhibai thought to himself: What is the matter that makes this Tai Sui Master so annoyed?
"Fuck\Damn it," Gao Xiaohu was angry when he thought about it, and couldn't help but kick the phone parts that could reach out to the front of him. If Zhou Zhibai hadn't been present, he would have wished to smash everything in front of him to vent his anger.
"What a big deal, I'm asking you to do this?" Zhou Zhibai stood up and held the club, bent his knees slightly, swung them hard, and then inadvertently asked Gao Xiaohu what was going on.
The white ball hit like lightning, and the landing point was not very good. It hit directly on the nylon high net on the front of the practice court. The high net hit the ball so hard that it shaking, and it can be seen that Zhou Zhibai had very strong power to sway this attack.
"It's not just for the little things that happened to Meixi Iron and Steel Plant,"
Gao Xiaohu pulled a chair and sat down, trying his best to calm himself down, but the anger in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, and there was no possibility of extinguishing it. He smelled his face and breathed heavily when he spoke, and wanted to pull the person who offended him over and eat it raw.
"Meixi Iron and Steel Factory wants to bypass us and hand over the steel to other dealers to sell it. I don't have to dominate this pit, nor do I not reason with these turtle sons. These turtle sons don't say a word, and today I will just go to another family to transport steel from the factory. If I have no reaction at all, how can I continue to hang in Donghua in the future? I sent a few cars to block the gate of Meitien Steel Factory, trying to teach them a lesson. Unexpectedly, these turtle grandsons drove a heavy truck equipped with steel and rolled the car I sent to block the door into an iron discus..."
Gao Xiaohu became more angry and angry as he spoke, his eyes were about to break and his face was as bright as he could.
In front of Zhou Zhibai, Gao Xiaohu didn't have the nerve to mention one of the two cars that were being rolled, or the black Mercedes-Benz he just bought with his connections. There are only two Mercedes-Benz models in Donghua City, one is Zhou Zhibai's car and the other is Gao Xiaohu's.
Gao Xiaohu has the face to say that his Mercedes-Benz was driving a heavy truck to roll it into an iron discus in Meixi Town?
Zhou Zhibai echoed: "The township enterprises below now really don't understand the rules..."
The Zhou family made a fortune by purchasing waste materials in the early years. In the eyes of their lovers, they were just a rag pickup. Those who knew Wu Haifeng’s relationship with the Zhou family even thought that Wu Haifeng was a clean official who did not seek benefits for his brothers, which also made Wu Haifeng’s reputation in Donghua better than Gao Tianhe.
In fact, since the mid-to-late 1980s, Donghua's steel industry has vigorously developed short-process steelmaking. The so-called short-process steelmaking does not use iron ore, but instead puts scrap steel and old iron into a furnace to dissolve it into a steel billet, and then produces various types of steel.
The Zhou family controlled the acquisition of scrap steel in Donghua City in its early years and gradually penetrated into surrounding cities and counties. After Zhou Zhibai returned from studying in the UK, he opened up channels for introducing scrap steel overseas and became the main furnace material supplier in Donghua's short-process steelmaking industry.
Pengyue Furnace Trading Company, managed by Zhou Zhibai, supplies more than 20 million yuan of dilapidated steel to Meixi Steel Plant every year. She is also very concerned about the situation in Meixi Town. She did not expect that such a thing would happen today.
However, in front of Gao Xiaohu, Zhou Zhibai was not inconvenient to call someone to inquire about more detailed situations.
"Damn it, I'm so angry that I'll use my phone to make a few calls," Gao Xiaohu didn't want to go back to the rest hall to make a call. He borrowed Zhou Zhibai's cell phone and called the phone, "Director Song, it's me, borrowed Mr. Zhou's cell phone to call you. Do you know what happened in Meixi Town? That's fine, it depends on how the Municipal Bureau gave me an explanation. My Gao Xiaohu's face has not been cut by others like this. He is a deputy secretary of the broken town. Today I ride on my head and pee. If I endure it today, won't he scatter my shit tomorrow? Okay, I'll wait for Director Song to deal with this matter..."
Listening to Gao Xiaohu calling, Zhou Zhibai was shocked: Could it be the Shen Huai who negotiated with his second uncle to be transferred to Meixi Town?
Gao Xiaohu called a few more times before saying to Zhou Zhibai: "I'm so thirty years old. I have never been angry with this bird! No, I have to go to Meixi Town to keep an eye on it to prevent Song Sanhe from agreeing to make good money and slap it on my back." He threw his cell phone on the table and returned it to Zhou Zhibai, turned around and took the driver, and the bodyguard left the Pengyue Golf driving range.
Zhou Zhibai watched Gao Xiaohu leave angrily, picked up his cell phone and called him directly to his sister Zhou Yu: "Sister, do you have any impression of your colleague in the municipal government, Shen Huai, who was trapped by the second uncle Gao Tianhe and asked to be transferred to Meixi Town?"
In front of his second uncle and his sister, Zhou Zhibai heard the name "Shen Huai" more than once, but he had not yet linked Shen Huai to the young white-faced "Xiao Shen" who swam with his sister in the city swimming pool that day.
Zhou Yu had just arrived in Tangzha District and had a lot of things in hand. His younger brother Zhibai didn't see a phone call for several days. He suddenly called him and mentioned Shen Huai, which surprised her.
Zhou Yu deliberately did not tell his younger brother that Shen Huai was the "little guy" he met in the city swimming pool that day, because he was afraid that her father and her second uncle would misunderstand that she and Shen Huai were lovers, so he had to make a fuss about this matter.
"Why...why..., Shen Huai is my colleague in the municipal government, and he made my second uncle lose his seat. How could I forget him?" Zhou Yu was also meeting his younger brother Zhibai and Shen Huai. He saw through his identity and asked with a knot in his tongue, "You are not a relationship with Gao Xiaohu playing golf in Pengyue, why did you go to Meixi Town to eat, drink, whore and gambling..."
Wu Haifeng led Gao Tianhe with the nose and fell into trouble when dealing with Chen Mingde's sudden death. He naturally hated Gao Tianhe and also obstructed Ge Yongqiu's appointment. However, the real problem was also in front of him: he was about to be driven down from the position of the municipal party secretary, and Gao Tianhe was completely unharmed. The Zhou family's industry was not particularly clean. How can we avoid becoming fat in the eyes of others?
There is no eternal grudge, only eternal interests.
The cruel reality made Wu Haifeng have to let go of his grudges and take the initiative to ease the relationship with Gao Tianhe.
Wu Haifeng couldn't bear to show his face and took the initiative to show kindness to Gao Tianhe; as the heir to the Zhou family, Wu Haifeng's nephew Zhou Zhibai took on this important task.
It is natural for Wu Haifeng to hate Gao Tianhe, but Gao Tianhe is vigilant about Wu Haifeng, but when Wu Haifeng loses the position of secretary of the municipal party committee, he is more gloating. At the same time, Gao Tianhe also knows that even if Wu Haifeng retreats to the second line, his influence with the Zhou family will not be too weak. He has not yet had the intention to invade the Zhou family's industry, and he also tends to ease the tension between the two sides.
Zhou Zhibai and Gao Xiaohu are both the fourth son of Donghua, but they have no friendship. After half a month, they have played three rounds after being rubbed by others. At least on the surface, the relationship has become familiar.
Zhou Zhibai was still disdainful of being with Gao Xiaohu, the Tu Taisui. He heard from his sister guess that he and Gao Xiaohu went to Meixi Town to eat, drink, gamble, and said, "Where do you want to go? Gao Xiaohu sent a car to block the gate of Meixi Steel Factory, and wanted to continue to monopolize the steel sales of Meixi Steel, but he didn't want to ask Shen Huai to crush it. Gao Xiaohu just rushed to Meixi Town to get back to the festival..."
"It's overturned?" Zhou Yu couldn't imagine what the scene "overturned" should be.
Zhou Yu knew that Shen Huai should have gone to Meixi Town to take office today. He didn't expect that he could tease Gao Xiaohu on the first day. He thought he was really a person who was unwilling to be lonely.
Shen Huai directly hinted at the beginning that he wanted to go to Meixi Town. Zhou Yu and her second uncle Wu Haifeng thought about it. Apart from Meixi Iron and Steel Plant, they really couldn't figure out what else Meixi Town was worthy of Shen Huai and the forces behind him.
Wu Haifeng still abides by the promise of the transaction. He knew that Shen Huai and Tan Qiping and that Shen Huai's parents were appointed by the Central Ministry, so he took the initiative to arrange personnel appointments of Meixi Iron and Steel Plant directly included within the scope of the transaction.
On the other hand, Wu Haifeng also hopes to see that while competing for the interests of Meixi Iron and Steel Plant, Shen Huai can fight with Gao Tianhe's son Gao Xiaohu, so that he and the Zhou family can be safer.
"Uncle the second uncle directly transferred Shen Huai to Meixi Town through Tao Jixing, just to see if Shen Huai crossed the river. Unexpectedly, Shen Huai took office on the first day, and the show was so exciting," Zhou Zhibai said gloatingly, "Sister, it's not convenient for me to rush to Meixi Town to watch the show, why don't you find an excuse to join in the fun?"
"What am I going to watch?" Zhou Yu said, but then they thought they knew that Shen Huai had a direct relationship with Tan Qiping, and that Shen Huai's father was appointed in the central ministry, but Gao Tianhe and the others didn't know about this. If Gao Xiaohu had a bad temper, he might directly instruct someone to attack Shen Huai.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yu was inexplicably worried about Shen Huai.
Zhou Yu casually flipped through the documents on his desk. There was a document about rectifying the river channel in the lower reaches of the Meixi River that was related to Meixi Town. She said to her younger brother Zhibai: "Tell me about this matter to my second uncle, I'd better go to Meixi Town to watch the fun..."
Zhou Yu called the Meixi Town Government again and said, "I am Zhou Yu from Tangzha District. I have just read the documents on the downstream rectification project of Meixi Town. If Meixi Town can arrange someone to come out in the afternoon, I will come and have a face-to-face discussion..."
After putting down the phone, Zhou Yu called the driver to take her to Meixi Town.
