Chapter 1063

Zhang Kaishan knew that Su Xinghui had one advantage, and that was that he kept his word. Since he said so, Zhang Kaishan was relieved. He smiled and said, "You don't need to worry too much. Governor Tian won't be that lacking in cultivation. Alright, let's go out and hold a short meeting together to discuss the itinerary for later."

The two went out, called all the county leaders and town leaders, and held a short meeting in the conference room. This meeting could not be long. The notification from the Provincial Committee General Office was that Governor Tian's motorcade would arrive at Pengjiawanzhen around eight o'clock. Now there was less than an hour left before Governor Tian arrived.

If this meeting was held too long, and they were still in the meeting when Governor Tian arrived, it wouldn't look very good.

Zhang Kaishan asked Qi Jian to talk about the itinerary arranged for Governor Tian today. Qi Jian talked about it, which was the itinerary Su Xinghui had told Zhang Kaishan about. Everyone agreed unanimously.

So everyone discussed some specific matters again, then went out and waited in front of the town government gate.

About ten minutes before eight, Tian Chengzu's motorcade arrived. His motorcade had a total of six or seven cars, stopping majestically at the gate of Pengjiawanzhen Government. Zhang Kaishan and Tian Xiaopeng quickly greeted them first. After Tian Chengzu got off the car, he shook hands with the two respectively, and then shook hands with the several county leaders behind them one by one.

Afterwards, Tian Chengzu shook hands with Qi Jian and walked toward Su Xinghui, who was waiting behind Qi Jian. He smiled and stretched out his hand to him, saying, "Comrade Su Xinghui, this is our second meeting, right?"

Su Xinghui quickly said, "Governor Tian, your memory is very good. This is indeed our second meeting. The first time was at the first Provincial Reform and Opening-up Economic Construction Achievement Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition on May 1st the year before last. You also participated in that exhibition."

Tian Chengzu nodded and smiled, "Your paintings are very good. I had a deep impression of your paintings that time."

In fact, at that Reform and Opening-up Economic Construction Achievement Calligraphy and Painting Exhibition, Tian Chengzu had not had any communication with Su Xinghui, and he had not seriously looked at those calligraphy and painting works. He just took a cursory look and left in a hurry. However, since he said so, Su Xinghui naturally could only cooperate with him.

Su Xinghui said, "Governor Tian is too kind. In fact, in painting, I can only be considered a younger generation and still cannot compare with those seniors."

Tian Chengzu gave a faint smile, let go of Su Xinghui's hand, and began to shake hands with other cadres of Pengjiawanzhen. He appeared very approachable. Seeing him in this appearance, Su Xinghui finally understood who Tian Xiaopeng's style was like. Tian Xiaopeng's style was extremely like Tian Chengzu's.

After shaking hands with everyone present, Tian Chengzu asked, "Comrade Kaishan, where are you prepared to take us to have a look?"

Zhang Kaishan said, "Governor Tian, since you came to Pengjiawan today, let the comrades of Pengjiawan decide."

Tian Chengzu nodded, "That's fine."

Zhang Kaishan signaled to Qi Jian, "Comrade Qi Jian, you talk about it."

Qi Jian said, "How about this, Governor Tian, let's go see the vegetable fields and the vegetable wholesale market first, then go see the construction site of the Hou Group's electrical appliance factory, then see the proposed site of the Changjiangdaqiao. If there is still time, then go see the town winery."

Tian Chengzu smiled, "That's fine. Anyway, I have already arrived here today, everything will be arranged by you."

Tian Chengzu's words brought a burst of laughter. Next, Tian Chengzu's inspection of Pengjiawanzhen began.

The inspection sites arranged by Pengjiawanzhen were in order from the west side of the town government to the east side, without needing to walk back. Tian Chengzu watched each item with great interest, occasionally raising some questions, and the questions raised were quite to the point.

When meeting Hou Wenhai at the construction site of the electrical appliance factory, Tian Chengzu asked cordially, "You are Mr. Hou Wenhai, the grandson of Old Mr. Hou Guangbi, right?"

Hou Wenhai nodded, "I am Hou Wenhai. You can just call me by my name."

Tian Chengzu said, "I admire Old Mr. Hou Guangbi very much. Old Mr. Hou Guangbi being able to resolutely return from overseas to invest and participate in national construction is a patriotic act! I don't know if I will have the honor to meet Old Mr. Hou Guangbi today?"

Hou Wenhai said, "Governor Tian, it's not very coincidental. My grandfather went back to France a few days ago because there are some things in the company over there that need him to handle."

Tian Chengzu nodded, "This is really a pity. I hope there will be a chance to meet Old Mr. Hou in the future."

Hou Wenhai said, "There will definitely be a chance."

Leaving the construction site of the electrical appliance factory, at the proposed site of the Changjiangdaqiao, Tian Chengzu looked at this wide river surface, this wide river beach, and the vast wilderness behind the river embankment. He was full of pride and said, "What a vast world this is! This place is too suitable for engaging in heavy industry!"

He turned his head and said, "Comrade Kaishan, Xiaopeng, I heard that a big boss wants to invest 300 million here to build a steel mill, right? This is a great thing. If we can start from this steel mill as a starting point, such a vast field can fully develop into a new steel city!"

Tian Xiaopeng smiled and said, "Governor, there is indeed such a matter. I didn't expect even you to know about it. However, it is still only in the discussion stage, and it is still far from developing into a new steel city."

Tian Chengzu said, "People must have confidence and ideals. Think back to when Jiang Steel just started production, the starting point was about the same as yours. After decades of arduous and extraordinary efforts, the annual output now has exceeded 5 million tons. The factory area of Jiang Steel has also developed into a steel city. Your natural conditions here are no worse than there. As long as you work hard, anything is possible."

Tian Xiaopeng said, "Governor, we must have confidence. When the day the steel mill starts construction comes, we will invite the Governor to attend the foundation-laying ceremony of the steel mill."

Su Xinghui watched coldly, watching this father and son perform in harmony. He found it funny in his heart. Is this performance too clumsy? Everyone can see they are performing. However, in officialdom, what is emphasized is this kind of performance. Actors must have the self-awareness of actors, and the audience must also have the self-awareness of the audience. Those who should cooperate must cooperate, and those who should applaud must applaud.

If someone is ignorant and exposes this kind of performance, they will become an enemy of officialdom. Even if it is Su Xinghui, he cannot do this now. Therefore, he can only watch coldly.

Qi Xiaoyan smiled charmingly, "Governor is really far-sighted and has a high-level view, being able to see so far. Our level is far from the Governor's. We are still arguing endlessly about whether the steel mill can settle in Shangjun County."

Tian Chengzu raised his eyebrows and said, "Oh, are you still arguing in the county now? What are the main aspects of the argument? Say it and let me hear. Don't be afraid, truth becomes clearer the more it is debated."
