Chapter 1621: An Unexpected Surprise

After Qiao Hui finished the call, he thought about telling Zhou Andong, but seeing him surrounded by many local leaders, he didn't go over.

Instead, he found Zhou Anbei. Zhou Andong didn't have time to introduce him to others, so the only one he was familiar with was Xiaobei.

"Xiaobei!"

There was also a regional leader accompanying Zhou Anbei, surnamed Xu, named Xu Sheng, who was the Deputy Secretary of the Regional Committee.

Importantly, he was a cadre aiding Tibet from Liaoning Province, and also from Panhe City, a neighbor of Jiangzhou, and a true fellow townsman of Zhou Andong.

Originally, his task was to accompany Zhou Andong together with Secretary Kong, using the identity of a fellow townsman to play the emotional card.

But plans couldn't keep up with changes. Unexpectedly, so many famous enterprise bosses and persons in charge came.

The previous accompanying arrangement was completely useless, and the plan had to be changed temporarily. Secretary Kong naturally still accompanied Zhou Andong.

And Xu Sheng's task was to accompany Zhou Anbei, this younger brother of Zhou Andong.

365 Home Furnishings' advertisement is broadcast on CCTV every day, not to mention Qin Chi, among ordinary people, it is more famous than Red Star Winery.

Excluding the relationship of his big brother Zhou Andong, in terms of accompanying arrangements, the degree of importance Zhou Anbei received was also ranked second.

Now Zhou Anbei, no matter where he goes, is a guest of honor for municipal, and even provincial government leaders.

"Secretary Xu!" Qiao Hui greeted Xu Sheng again.

"Regimental Commander Qiao, do you know General Manager Zhou?"

Xu Sheng was very curious. Qiao Hui called Zhou Anbei Xiaobei. This must be someone who is very, very familiar to call him that.

Qiao Hui also laughed: "I know him, but whether he knows me or not, I don't know."

Zhou Anbei was full of doubts. When he was in Gerze County, the walkie-talkie said that the local troops came to meet them.

At that time, he was in Yao Jun's car, didn't take it seriously, and didn't get out of the car, so at this time he really didn't recognize Qiao Hui.

"Are you..."

Qiao Hui laughed heartily: "Do you remember, when you were a child, you rode a bicycle and ran more than ten miles to school to find your brother. At that time, your brother was so angry that he wanted to beat you. Who stopped him, and you escaped a disaster."

Zhou Anbei's eyes lit up, looking at Qiao Hui's bronze-colored face, and finally felt a little familiar.

"Are you... Brother Qiao Hui?"

"Hahaha..." Qiao Hui laughed again: "Not bad, you kid didn't completely forget me."

"You really are Brother Qiao Hui."

Zhou Anbei excitedly hugged Qiao Hui, then looked him over, and said incredulously.

"You are simply a different person. If you didn't say it, I wouldn't recognize you at all."

Qiao Hui looked at Zhou Anbei and sighed: "You kid hasn't changed at all. I recognized you at a glance."

Zhou Anbei said with a smile: "Let's sit at a table in a while and have a good chat."

Qiao Hui said helplessly: "The regional committee didn't expect you to come with so many people, exceeding the reception capacity, so some people were arranged in our regiment.

I have to take people to the regiment. After eating, I have to arrange dormitories. Tomorrow night, I'll ask your sister-in-law to make dumplings, authentic Northeast dumplings, one with a meatball. I'll come to pick you and your brother up then."

"Okay!" Zhou Anbei nodded happily: "We'll wait for you tomorrow night."

Qiao Hui glanced at Zhou Andong's side: "There are too many people there, just tell your brother."

Qiao Hui looked at Xu Sheng: "Secretary Xu, I'm leaving, let's chat when we have time."

"Okay!"

Xu Sheng wanted to see him off, but was stopped by Qiao Hui.

"Stay, we are our own people, don't see me off."

"I'll see you off." Zhou Anbei said: "It's been more than ten years since you and my brother went to college, right?"

"Isn't it." Qiao Hui nodded and walked out of the restaurant with Zhou Anbei.

Watching the backs of the two leaving, Xu Sheng was full of incredulity.

Qiao Hui was actually Zhou Andong's classmate. This was definitely a big surprise for the whole Ngari.

It is true that he is from Liaoning, and it is true that he is Zhou Andong's fellow townsman, but this relationship is far worse than that of a classmate.

Especially hearing the chat between Zhou Anbei and Qiao Hui, it proved that the relationship between the two sides was not generally good.

At this time, the guesthouse manager Basang Zhuoma came out of the kitchen. She was a woman in her thirties.

Because there were distinguished guests today, she also wore traditional costumes very grandly.

"Leaders, distinguished guests, dinner is about to start, please take your seats."

Xiaobei came back, and Xu Sheng said: "General Manager Zhou, it's about to start, let's go sit."

"Okay!" Zhou Anbei nodded and followed Xu Sheng toward that side.

"Come, come, come!" Secretary Kong greeted and pulled Zhou Andong to sit down.

Gu Bing, Wu Hongkang, Zhang Shenghui, Zhou Anbei, Yao Jun, and Guan Shengjie and Du Youwei all sat at this table.

Accompanying them, besides Secretary Kong and Xu Sheng, was another Deputy Secretary Liu Mingzhi.

And the others sat at another table, accompanied by County Committee Secretary Gong Qianjin and County Magistrate Wei He.

The remaining regional and county leaders sat around the third table.

Actually, the restaurant can accommodate fifty or sixty people to eat at the same time, but it feels a bit crowded.

So Basang Zhuoma decided to remove all the small tables and replace them with three large round tables.

Regional and county leaders and Yugong Group leaders ate at the guesthouse, and everyone else was arranged to two other small restaurants in the town.

Secretary Kong picked up a bottle of wine and poured wine for Zhou Andong himself: "This is our Tibetan highland barley wine. You, Factory Director Wu, and General Manager Zhang are all experts. Taste it, give some opinions, and see if there is any room for improvement."

Zhou Andong said with a smile: "Highland barley has a history of four million years of cultivation on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, extending from material culture to the field of spiritual culture."

"On the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, a highland barley culture with rich connotations and very rich ethnic characteristics has been formed. And highland barley wine is an extension of highland barley culture. Drinking highland barley wine has also become an indispensable custom for the Tibetan people."

"So, whether highland barley wine is delicious or not is not important, because it represents Tibetan culture and customs. Everyone who comes here doesn't drink wine, but culture and customs."

"Clap, clap, clap..."

Everyone applauded, and Liu Mingzhi said with emotion: "Everyone says Chairman Zhou is learned and talented, and today I have truly seen it."

Secretary Kong reacted very quickly and said to the cameraman carrying the camera behind him.

"Did you record it?"

The cameraman nodded: "Recorded."

Secretary Kong said very seriously: "After going back, organize these words of Chairman Zhou and make them into a copy to promote our highland barley wine culture."

"Okay!" The cameraman hurriedly nodded in agreement.

Secretary Kong looked at Zhou Andong again, with a smile on his face: "Chairman Zhou, if you weren't in the wine business, I would definitely invite you to be the Ngari publicity ambassador to promote highland barley wine culture." ===== CHAPTER 1622 =====
