Chapter 887 Uncle and Nephew
Wang Zhengdao sat down and took the tea cup from Wang Jianming and said with a smile: "Originally I wanted to go to your house, but then I thought about it and decided not to disturb your lives. Wanying likes peace and quiet."
Wang Jianming smiled and said, "It's more convenient for my family. Wanying has always respected you."
When he and He Wanying got married, they encountered opposition from the family. It was his uncle Wang Zhengdao who came forward. During that time, he created many obstacles for the couple. His uncle even found someone to do He Wanying's ideological work. He Wanying had already decided They gave up, but thanks to Wang Jianming's persistence, the two of them were able to get where they are today, so He Wanying has always been a little alienated from the Wang family, especially the uncle who didn't like him.
Wang Zhengdao also heard the implication of his nephew's words. It seemed that Wang Jianming did not welcome his visit.
Wang Zhengdao took a sip of tea and said, "I was indeed in a hurry this time. I didn't want to stay in Dongzhou at first, but then I remembered that you were in Dongzhou. If I, as an uncle, didn't let you in, wouldn't it be a sign of indifference and indifference to family ties?" Grandpa would also blame me if he knew."
Wang Jianming smiled and said: "I was supposed to visit you, but I just took over the work here recently and I really can't get away."
"It doesn't matter to me here. You should go back and see grandpa when you have time. The one he loves most in his heart is you."
Wang Jianming said: "Jian Jiancheng and I talked about this matter two days ago. We will visit grandpa often in the future."
Wang Zhengdao put down the tea cup and looked at his nephew with a smile. He had hardly seen this kid since he fell ill. He had made a fortune, and now he really had the air of a city-level leader. He was flawless and hidden when talking to him. What hurt the old man the most was He himself was not exaggerating.
Wang Zhengdao still remembers the year when his eldest brother passed away. The old man brought Wang Jianming to his home in the capital. The boy was taciturn and had been very alienated from their family since then. Wang Zhengdao asked himself whether he was worthy of him, and how much money he had for food and clothing. The transfer procedures were all handled by him personally. Even though he didn't care about his own son that much, it still couldn't change the alienation in his bones.
“Jianming, I heard that there is something wrong with the China-Korea Industrial Park project.”
Wang Jianming said: "It's not a big problem. It's just the ownership of one hundred acres of land. Lexing Group has taken a fancy to a piece of land opposite the Qingshan Mine Heritage Park, but that piece of land has been approved for the construction of Dongzhou Infectious Disease Hospital in advance. Xinyuan, as leaders, it’s hard for us to change our orders every day.”
"But everything has priorities. How much is the investment in the China-Korea Industrial Park? How much is the investment in the infectious disease hospital? As the leader of Dongzhou, your first consideration should be how to maximize Dongzhou's interests and how to promote Dongzhou's development I only represent my own opinions on development, so please don’t overthink it.”
Wang Jianming laughed: "Uncle, I haven't thought about what you said, but it involves a very sensitive issue. Li Bingxing, the president of Lexing Group, used to live in Qingshan Mine. During the Anti-Japanese War, he came from the peninsula The group of people who came over had helped the Japanese invaders do many bad things. Li Bingxing’s original intention to get that land was to build the headquarters of the China-Korea Industrial Park to commemorate his father Li Puyuan, and there was a monument to the Seven Heroes opposite."
Wang Zhengdao said disapprovingly: "I have heard that some people are deliberately using this incident to incite ethnic hatred and provoke ethnic antagonism. How old is it? Not to mention that these are baseless rumors. Even if something really happened, it should be Looking forward, we cannot let national hatred affect economic development, right?"
Wang Jianming said: "Mr. Qiao expressed his concerns through Qiao Rulong."
Wang Zhengdao frowned, picked up the tea cup and took another sip of tea: "His hands are really long enough."
Wang Jianming said: "The old man must be given some face, otherwise grandpa will not be able to justify it."
Wang Zhengdao laughed: "Do you feel you owe him a favor? You have nothing to do with him until now. He just did something to facilitate things."
Wang Jianming felt a little uncomfortable, and even if he knew some things, he didn't want to say them out.
Wang Zhengdao did not see his mood at the moment from Wang Jianming's expression. He knew that these words might embarrass his nephew, but he didn't care. Mr. Qiao was no longer what he used to be. Although Wang Jianming was in Dongzhou, he took the initiative to help. But even without him, Wang Jianming's rise will not stop.
"The incident caused by Qiao Rulong has brought disgrace to the Qiao family. Ye Qingya's divorce from him means that their family has made a complete separation. It is not because of the breakup of the relationship, but because the Ye family sees that the Qiao family has no hope." Wang Zhengdao The key to this matter was revealed.
Wang Jianming said: "Everyone makes mistakes sometimes. Rulong is young and I can see that he regrets it very much."
"Our three families are family friends. Among the older generation, Mr. Qiao has the highest position. The reason why he is able to reach where he is today is thanks to the great help of Mr. Ye and your grandfather. But our Wang family is devoted to him, and in exchange for What? When your grandfather asked him to come forward to mobilize your father, what did he do?" Wang Jianming did not say anything. His uncle said more than once that if his father had not commanded the battle on the front line, he might not have died in the Battle of Zheyin Mountain, but Grandpa never mentioned the transfer.
Wang Jianming once considered this issue. If he were in his father's position, he would not accept coming down from the front line under any circumstances. It would mean running away from the battle. He believed in his father's decision and he was proud of his father. He didn't like his uncle's assumption about his father's transfer. He didn't think his grandfather would do the same. He even thought his uncle's words were blasphemous to his father.
“If your father were still alive…”
“Uncle, there are not so many what-ifs in this world.” Wang Jianming interrupted him unceremoniously.
Wang Zhengdao smiled awkwardly: "Yes, there are not so many what-ifs. In fact, your grandfather's achievements should be the highest among the three of them. At the critical moment, someone stabbed him in the back."
Wang Jianming knew that his uncle was teasing Mr. Qiao again, and he was also very puzzled. He didn't know how his uncle could have such deep resentment towards Mr. Qiao. Even his grandfather didn't care about it. Why did he care about it? Wang Jianming believes that at Grandpa's level, every decision they make is for the public good and cannot be mixed with too many private thoughts. The reason why Mr. Qiao voted against it was not because his uncle said he wanted to step on Grandpa. The shoulders climb up.
Wang Jianming said: “Let’s not mention the past.”
Wang Zhengdao looked at his nephew. This boy has indeed grown up and matured. The old man's demeanor can be seen in him. No wonder the old man likes him so much.
“Is there no room for maneuver in the China-Korea Industrial Park matter?”
Wang Jianming nodded and said: "It should be gone."
His words were equivalent to completely cutting off Wang Zhengdao's thoughts.
Wang Zhengdao actually had no obsession with that piece of land. After hearing Mr. Qiao’s expression of concern, he realized that the matter was basically gone. Although he kept saying that Mr. Qiao was not as good as before, Mr. Tiger was still in power and Mr. Qiao’s disciple There are many, and their energy cannot be underestimated. Qiao Rulong actually kept his position at Huatou after such a big thing happened this time.
Wang Zhengdao heard that his old man also helped to speak. The key was that the Ye family did not make any noise. The marriage between Ye Qingya and Qiao Rulong was dissolved quietly. The Ye family endured this and did not make a big deal about the matter to Qiao Rulong. The family saved enough face.
Wang Zhengdao reminded Wang Jianming: "The investment in the China-Korea Industrial Park is very large. I can coordinate on Lexing's behalf. In terms of policy, I hope you can show more sincerity."
Wang Jianming understood what he meant. It seemed that the China-Korea Industrial Park would eventually be settled in Dongzhou. Although Li Changhyuk's last meeting with him ended on bad terms, it did not affect the final cooperation. Lexing Group chose Zhongdong State should have conducted a thorough and comprehensive investigation and would not easily change their investment plan just because of a mere 100 acres of land. Wang Jianming also knew that his uncle's interests were involved. The more so, the more cautious he must be.
The China-Korea Industrial Park, a US$15 billion project, is indeed exciting, but the bigger the project, the greater the risk. Because of the protests from the people in the Qingshan Mining Area, Wang Jianming’s attitude towards the China-Korea Industrial Park project has changed. Be more cautious. According to the Korean side's planning document, the overall planned area of the industrial park is 50 square kilometers, and the spatial layout is an industry-city integration core area and a port-facing industrial supporting area.
The core area of urban-industry integration relies on the old mining area, with a planned area of 40 square kilometers. The port-facing industrial supporting area relies on the canal's inner port terminal, with a planned area of ten square kilometers. Focus on the development of automobiles, new energy equipment and electronic information industries, and actively cultivate port-side industries and modern service industries.
This is equivalent to building a new industrial city in Dongzhou. If this matter is completed successfully, it will definitely become Wang Jianming's most eye-catching political achievement since he took office.
Wang Jianming admitted that political achievements are attractive to him, but he will always remember what his grandfather said to him. If you want to stay in the system for a long time, you must not be short-sighted and focus only on political achievements. If an official only thinks about political achievements, he will never be able to win. If you don't become a good official, your real achievements should be judged by the people. Don't think about what position you can reach, but think about how much you can do for the people.
Wang Jianming said: "I have read their plan, and the description of the investment composition is not detailed enough. I will ask the relevant departments to re-evaluate the risks of the China-South Korea Industrial Park."
Wang Zhengdao looked at his nephew with some surprise. He clearly meant what he said to himself. Is there any mistake? I gave you such a big political achievement, and you actually started to show off to me. What do you mean? Faced with an investment of 15 billion US dollars, do you still have to be picky?
Wang Jianming said: "Uncle, I shouldn't ask this question, how much investment does Zhengdao Group intend to participate in?"
Wang Zhengdao smiled and said: "I am also conducting a risk assessment."
