Of course, as soon as someone knocked on the door, he would immediately become gentle and elegant again, sit back in his seat, and then say "please come in" in the most gentle voice.

These days, there were also rumors everywhere in Shangjun County, spreading the matter of Pan Yongchun and the others acting like hooligans in the song hall that night. The matter was spread with nose and eyes, but there were too many versions, making people not know which one was true.

However, the reputation of General Manager Pan Yongchun was also completely ruined, and the rumors also involved the younger brother of County Magistrate Tian. The scandal of County Magistrate Tian's younger brother naturally affected County Magistrate Tian.

These rumors made Tian Xiaopeng have no confidence to say anything about the steel factory. This made him exhausted. He originally suspected whether these rumors were released by Zhang Kaishan or Su Xinghui. But he thought about it, the matter that happened that night was on the night market street, with so many onlookers at that time, did such rumors need to be deliberately released?

China is like this. Good things don't go out, bad things spread thousands of miles.

Next, he heard about the matter of Tong Yuejin being reported for soliciting bribes. Tong Yuejin was one of the first middle-level cadres in Shangjun County to turn to Tian Xiaopeng. Once, Tian Xiaopeng had high hopes for him, hoping that he could help him contain Su Xinghui in Pengjiawanzhen. Who knew that this would happen.

Zhang Yunhui reported with his real name. The time, place, reason, amount, etc. on the report letter were all available. It could be said that the evidence was conclusive. Tong Yuejin could not deny it and didn't even persist for a day before he was taken down.

Pengjiawanzhen recommended Li Daqing as deputy town mayor and Liu Yongjun as director of the Party and Government Office. Tian Xiaopeng was naturally unwilling in his heart, but could he oppose it? He had just arrived in Shangjun, and there was no talent in his bag to compete for these two positions. And even if he opposed it, what was the use? There were not many people in the Standing Committee who supported him.

Therefore, he simply voted in favor. Such a feeling made him very unhappy, but he had no way.

These kinds of bad news made Tian Xiaopeng extremely irritable. He had nowhere to use his strength. He felt as if he had fallen into a big net, and the harder he struggled, the tighter he was tied.

He could only hope that Shen Zhongtian could bring him good news.

Since the matter that night, Shen Zhongtian had left Shangjun County, saying that he was going to help Tian Xiaopeng find investors. However, there had been no news for more than ten days.

Tian Xiaopeng had been waiting for news from Shen Zhongtian, but he received another piece of bad news: Hou Guangbi returned from France, and with him was a vice president of the French Note United Steel Company, Mr. Noel. Noel came here to inspect the investment environment of Pengjiawanzhen and was prepared to invest.

The French Note United Steel Company was one of the largest steel companies in France, with an annual output of more than 10 million tons of various ordinary steel and special steel. It could be called a giant. They wanted to invest in Pengjiawanzhen, and the investment amount would absolutely not be a small number.

This news made Tian Xiaopeng's mood extremely bad. However, he was helpless now. The only thing he could do was wait for news from Shen Zhongtian, while praying that the French would not like Pengjiawan.

Hou Guangbi and Noel flew to Jiangcheng and had Hou Wenhai send a car to pick them up. Now the Hou family had bought several cars in China, from Mercedes-Benz to Audi. This time Noel brought several followers. Hou Wenhai sent three cars to Jiangcheng Airport to pick them up and then went straight to Pengjiawanzhen.

Before arriving in Pengjiawan, Hou Guangbi did not notify Su Xinghui. When they arrived at the Pengjiawanzhen Government, it indeed gave Su Xinghui a huge surprise.

Su Xinghui welcomed Hou Guangbi and Noel's group into a small conference room. It was more spacious than his conference room, otherwise it really couldn't hold so many people.

He and Qi Jian received the other party together. Su Xinghui first greeted Hou Guangbi and Noel, and then asked about the purpose of Mr. Noel's trip.

Hou Wenhai acted as an interpreter. Noel told his intention. It turned out that he and Hou Guangbi were old friends. Noel's Note United Steel Company had merged several large steel factories in recent years, and its production capacity had soared. However, it had encountered the problem of overcapacity.

Originally, the main market of Note United Steel Company was in Europe. However, Europe's industrialization had been going on for one or two hundred years, and the demand for steel was saturated. In contrast, the major steel factories in Europe had been merging continuously, and their production capacity was getting larger and larger.

This was naturally a contradiction, the contradiction between enterprise development and market saturation. Note United Steel Company urgently needed to find a new way out.

Just then, Hou Guangbi returned to France. He visited Noel. Noel told him about his troubles. He knew that Hou Guangbi was a business genius and an elderly wise man. He hoped to get Hou Guangbi's advice.

After Hou Guangbi heard what he said, he really gave Noel a suggestion. He suggested that Noel bravely explore overseas emerging markets.
