Gao Da turned his head and saw three Bentleys slowly driving towards them.
These were cars worth four or five million each, exuding a very powerful aura.
Especially the extended Bentley in the middle, which, overseas, would be a car for national leaders.
The reporters waiting on the scene immediately pointed their cameras at these three Bentleys.
Soon, the cars stopped in front of the hotel entrance.
From the front and rear Bentleys, eight black-suited bodyguards stepped out, among them an elderly man in a traditional Chinese outfit with graying hair, exuding an elegant demeanor.
After the elderly man got out of the car, he walked to the middle extended Bentley and opened the car door.
Mu Weishuang, wearing a white suit and sunglasses on her face, stepped out of the car.
With her tall figure, dignified features, and jet-black shiny hair, she gave off a very strong oppressive aura!
Even the county government officials felt crushed by the aura.
Being overshadowed by a woman, this was a first!
Gao Da hurriedly handed the thermos in his hand to the secretary next to him, then walked enthusiastically towards her: "Chairman Mu, hello! My name is Gao Da, I am the county mayor of Wulin County. From now on, I will represent the Wulin County Government to host you and handle the contract signing."
Mu Weishuang did not reach out to shake hands with Gao Da but instead removed her sunglasses, looking with three parts suspicion and seven parts indifference: "Huh? I don't recall saying I was going to negotiate a contract with Mayor Gao."
Gao Da's extended hand lingered awkwardly in the air, his expression somewhat embarrassed.
Tian Jianhui quickly stepped forward and said: "Chairman Mu, since Mayor Gao learned of your intention to invest in Wulin County and build a dock, he has attached great importance to it and plans to personally be in charge of this part..."
Mu Weishuang rudely interrupted Tian Jianhui: "I will not cooperate with men; it makes no difference if it's the mayor or even the governor, it's useless."
She glanced at the county government officials nearby with displeasure and said, "The main reason I'm here is because of Director Jing. I wonder where she is?"
Upon hearing this, Tian Jianhui's mind buzzed, and he broke out in a cold sweat: "Chairman Mu, Director Jing has taken the day off today!"
Mu Weishuang nodded: "Is she really on leave, or was she pushed out by some people?"
Tian Jianhui was embarrassed: "Chairman Mu, Director Jing is only the Vice Director of our Investment Promotion Bureau. For such a large project, it should be managed by our county leadership..."
Mu Weishuang furrowed her brows: "Did Director Tian not understand what I just said? I hate cooperating with men. If Director Jing is not here, then this project will be put on hold. I can go investigate the neighboring county."
Saying this, Mu Weishuang turned and walked towards the Bentley.
Gao Da, Tian Jianhui, and several county government officials were stunned! No one expected this Chairman Mu to be so decisive; evidently, if Jing Tian wasn't here, no one else would suffice.
This made them very anxious. Initially, Gao Da planned to lead and establish cooperation with the Eastern Group, surely earning a big political achievement.
But now, his intervention might cause the other party to choose another county for the port. If this spreads, wouldn't he become the traitor of Wulin County?
Thinking of this, Gao Da immediately looked at Tian Jianhui and whispered, "Don't just stand there, keep her here, or we'll both be finished!"
Gao Da didn't understand why Mu Weishuang was so opposed to cooperating with men, but now, if this two-trillion project just ran away, their government might as well go home and plant sweet potatoes!
"Chairman Mu! Chairman Mu! Please wait!" Tian Jianhui rushed in front of Mu Weishuang, forcing a smile, "Please wait, I'll immediately send someone to fetch Vice Director Jing!"
Mu Weishuang: "My time is very valuable. I have already wasted half an hour, so now you only have fifteen minutes."
"Okay! I'll make the call right now!" Tian Jianhui nodded repeatedly, went to the side, and took out his phone to call Jing Tian's office.
He intended to order Jing Tian to come immediately.
But Jing Tian didn't answer.
Tian Jianhui, helpless, directly called Jing Tian's cell phone.
Still, no one answered!
"Damn it!"
At this, Tian Jianhui couldn't keep calm and burst out swearing.
"Old Tian, how can you be so foolish! She's deliberately not answering! That woman has good tactics!" Gao Da's face turned dark; he never expected to be played by a woman like this!
No, by two women!
Tian Jianhui was so anxious he almost cried: "Mayor Gao, what do we do now?"
"What to do? If you don't want to be demoted, go personally and invite this tough customer!" Gao Da took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart.
"Fine! I'll go! I'll personally go!" Tian Jianhui had no choice but to go personally.
...
"Chuan, will Tian Jianhui really come to invite me? Isn't this admitting defeat to me? I find it hard to believe."
Investment Promotion Bureau.
Vice Director's Office.
Jing Tian was a bit puzzled; her office and mobile phones had just rung, but Li Chuan didn't let her pick up.
"Of course, trust me." Li Chuan smiled slightly.
Gao Da is the county mayor, and Li Zhao is the county party secretary. They are the second and first in command in the county.
But now the initiative is in our hands.
Even if they are the first and second in command, so what?
Jing Tian was resigned: "If Tian Jianhui really comes, then things would be completely strained between him and me. It's either him or me!"
Li Chuan seemed unconcerned: "Such a petty person, so what if things are strained?"
Jing Tian said nothing more. She thought Li Chuan was still too young and didn't understand the politics of government.
Someone as young as Li Zhao could become the county party secretary, certainly having some backstage support.
Gao Da and Li Zhao were in cahoots, need not say much.
As for Tian Jianhui, he also had backing.
Only she...
Time passed by second by second.
Seven minutes later, Tian Jianhui appeared in front of Jing Tian, sweating profusely and with a hint of anger on his face: "Jing Tian! Why didn't you answer the phone?"
Jing Tian was a bit surprised: "Director Tian was looking for me? I just went to the data room to check on some materials, didn't have the phone with me!"
"Director, what's so urgent?"
Tian Jianhui was about to grind his teeth to pieces.
He didn't believe a word of Jing Tian's nonsense, but at this moment could only swallow his pride: "It's like this, after carefully considering things with the leadership, we feel that it's more appropriate for you to sign the contract with Miss Mu of the Eastern Group."
"If we were to handle it, it would be difficult to explain to Chairman Mu of the Eastern Group."
Li Chuan had an amused expression: "Director Tian, it's not just hard to explain, is it?"
Tian Jianhui exploded: "You're just a driver, stay out of it!"
He couldn't afford to offend Jing Tian now, but a driver also wanted to mock him?
Dream on!
Li Chuan smiled lightly, not taking Tian Jianhui's words to heart, like being barked at by a dog.
Besides, he was now Jing Tian's driver, so it wasn't appropriate to be too conspicuous.
Tian Jianhui was anxious: "Jing Tian, hurry up, Chairman Mu is still waiting! She said she only gave us fifteen minutes!"
Speaking up to here, Tian Jianhui also regretted in his heart. Instead of being so deferential now, he should have just not tried to grab the credit initially!
Truly a case of trying to steal a chicken and losing the rice used to lure it!
