Chapter 275 The vigorous transformation of Xinlu City
Xinlu City.
"Old Chen doesn't live at home now?"
In the Victoria Villa, Chen Xi placed some health products he brought back from Tu'ao on the table. Chen Caiyue was teasing a puppy and having a great time.
“Well, he said he was busy in the factory and lived directly in the office.”
"Ha."
Hearing his mother's words, he smiled.
Chen Yifeng's office is very large, with a room and a bathroom inside. He said he was too busy with work, so it was convenient to rest there.
In fact, there are several houses next to the factory. One is for him to live in, and the other two are for Grandma Chen Xi and his third uncle.
“Come on, Diandian, say hello to your boss! Call me brother.”
"Woof woof!"
A very cute-looking Bichon Frize dog circled happily around Chen Xi, with a loud voice and a fast tail wagging, obviously showing goodwill to him.
This Bichon Frize was born from the same litter as the Wanwan star’s dog, and the price when bought was around 200,000.
Looking at the young puppy, Chen Xi smiled.
This dog has been accompanying Chen Caiyue for more than ten years, which can be said to be an extremely long life.
Because the quality of his life had declined in the past, and he wanted to defeat Chen Yifeng, which made him very irritable every day. The dog also liked to bark and peed at the door of his room and on the bed, but Chen Xishao was not taught a lesson.
The back is a little old, and I walk with a slight limp.
Chen Xi also had a hunched back due to stress, and his hair was bald.
Seeing this young puppy now, I feel very friendly.
You dead dog, we meet again.
Chen Xi said hello to it in his heart. In the past, he had always called Diandian a dead dog.
"Woof!"
"Pfft~"
Diandian seemed to feel something, turned around and farted at him.
“Damn, you damn dog!”
"Haha!"
Chen Caiyue couldn't help laughing and bending down when she saw Diandian's way of greeting.
"Is the business going well?"
"I'm so busy that I don't even have time to look after you."
"Well... ask an aunt to watch over you at home. That’s it.”
"How can this be done? It is clinging to me and no one else can control it."
Chen Xi felt a headache when he thought that this dog liked to cause trouble at home.
"Don't worry, I usually bring it to the company so that I don't delay my work."
"Well, that's good."
Hearing from my mother If so, he nodded. It seems that Chen Caiyue has changed slightly in this life.
"This time the leadership of Xinlu has changed. We should be preparing for a major urban transformation."
"Wow, the information is so well-informed. I know China's national affairs from overseas~~"
Morning Caiyue stretched out her hand, made an orchid finger gesture, and said something like she was singing.
"The city's major transformation means that it needs to be rebuilt. The advertising and lighting projects will definitely have to be rebuilt by then."
"I have asked about this a long time ago. The person who takes office this time has a special status. , are not from this province, and will not use the old people of Xinlu to support newcomers..." Chen Caiyue told the current situation of Xinlu, and Chen Xi naturally knew it.
The top leader coming to Xinlu City this time is indeed unusual. Different from ordinary leadership transfers, he was parachuted directly from above.
For those wealthy people in this city, there is no intention to deal with them in depth. Rather, I want to dig out some potential support from the newcomers, so that the strengths of all parties can be balanced.
“The road in the city center is so narrow, it needs to be rebuilt.”
“Yes.”
“Since the road needs to be widened, the houses on both sides also need to be demolished. Such old low-rise buildings affect the appearance of the city.”
"Understood."
At the same time, Xinlu city center, Huanghe Road.
A middle-aged man wearing glasses commented dissatisfiedly on the surrounding facilities, and several people who looked like leaders immediately echoed his views.
Qin Feilong has just taken office and has the ambition to build Xinlu City into the second deep city.
He knew that major urban reconstruction was a costly project, but this time he received strong support from his superiors and approved a large amount of reconstruction funds, with the initial capital reaching tens of billions.
With this fund, Qin Feilong is ready to flex his muscles and go all out to promote the transformation of Xinlu City. He is full of confidence and expectations for the future of Xinlu City.
He now knows a lot about the situation in Xinlu, and has already read the list of local entrepreneurs.
In order to prevent one family from becoming dominant, he decided to give the opportunity to transform the city to relatively weak people.
The major urban transformation is not only about urban construction, some undesirable places also need to be cleaned up, and efforts must also be made in attracting investment.
Qin Feilong is under a lot of pressure now. As a foreigner, he was parachuted here from Huajing. If it weren't for his special status, it turned out to be... It would be really difficult to renovate the new house.
"What should be demolished will be demolished, and the demolition funds must be adjusted with the masses..."
"Understood."
With Qin Feilong's words, a group of people emerged in Xinlu City Approval of households with money and houses to be demolished.
They were originally old residents in the city center and lived in dilapidated houses. However, they received generous compensation due to the demolition. Not only did they have money on hand, they also owned multiple new houses.
These demolished households are all smiling and living very comfortably. Therefore, there are two sayings that spread later: "When you marry, you need to find a native of Xinlu, and everyone has several houses in their hands." "If you only have one house in Xinlu, it is probably not a local aboriginal."
Demolition was not just in the city center, but citywide, and eventually began to spread to surrounding suburbs. The number of households demolished in Xinlu is among the highest in the country.
"Mom, how many other companies are following our advertising company to eat meat?"
Chen Xi, who was teasing the puppy, looked up at Chen Caiyue.
"There are several of them! Xiao Ding, Xiao Yin, Xiao Wang..." Chen Caiyue counted several in succession with her fingers.
Some of them he had heard of, and some he didn't know.
Xiao Ding naturally refers to Ding Li’s father, who slowly started to make a fortune by taking over endless projects from Chen Xi’s family.
Xiao Yin is the owner of the second largest advertising company in Xinlu and the father of Yin Anwei, Huaguang’s junior high school classmate.
Because he relied on his family's business to make a living, Yin Anwei naturally followed Chen Xi in school. He also rushed to the front in fights and was regarded as his lackey by others.
This is a bit like the relationship between X Xueliang and X Xuecheng. Although there is no blood relationship, there is no difference in loyalty. If Chen Xi tells him to go east, he will never go west.
The Xiao Wang mentioned by Chen Caiyue was responsible for road lighting projects. He relied on the Chen family's connections to take on many overpasses and other lighting projects.
It’s just that this boss later got involved in gambling, escaped from debts and went to the country of Yue, where he suddenly made a comeback. As a result, he returned to Xinlu in glory. At this time, he seemed to have not fallen into the quagmire of gambling. among.
Chen Xi was not familiar with most of the remaining people, and some had only heard their names.
The mother and son were sitting at home, teasing the puppy and discussing the next thing.
In a factory several districts away, Chen Yifeng was standing there with his hands behind his back.
"The president is here, what do you think of my painting?"
"Yes, not bad."
A middle-aged man holding a paintbrush stood up and looked at his painting Displayed diligently.
Chen Yifeng smiled and expressed his affirmation.
Since Chen Yifeng founded an artist association in China, the painters who benefited from him began to call him the president.
Most of these painters are from the Chinese Academy of Fine Arts or the China Academy of Fine Arts.
Chen Yifeng is very satisfied and proud of this president.
When he was young, he dreamed of taking the art route and hoped to enter these two well-known art schools.
However, in the end he entered Huajing University.
Although Huajing University is the highest educational institution in China, he still has regrets in his heart. Therefore, he felt that the painters present who graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts were all talents.
"I heard that a new leader has taken office. President, would you like to give him a calligraphy and painting to show your artistic style?" A painter with mediocre painting skills but good at flattery came forward and said.
“Well, that’s a good idea! I’m busy these days, so I’ll take time to take everyone to sketch in a few days.”
“President, your ink-splashing and oil painting skills are superb. The one before Foreign friends from the Middle East are full of praise for you! I want to buy your painting for one or two million!”
“It’s just a small sum of one or two million. I’ll give it to him directly. They are all international friends!” Chen Yifeng was a little overwhelmed by what these people said, and he quickly waved his hands to pretend to be humble.
“The president is awesome!”
"The president is still at a high level!"
The painters present all praised him.
"Okay, I have something else to do, you continue painting."
Chen Yifeng smiled and said hello to everyone, and left in a hurry.
This is one floor of the factory office building. The entire floor has been turned into a studio by him. Many employees do not understand what this boss does.
It seems a bit nondescript to do this in a factory.
However, Chen Yifeng didn't care at all about the opinions of the people below. He only felt that those people were uneducated and did not know how to appreciate art.
He has been very busy recently and has not contacted Chen Xi for three or four months, so he does not know that the other party has returned to China.
"Mr. Chen, you are here, everyone has been waiting impatiently."
"Mr. Chen, you have to wait so hard for me!"
"Sorry, there are a lot of things. After all, the new leader has just taken office!"
Chen Yifeng walked into the conference room, and the bosses who had been waiting for a long time stood up to pay their respects. After a brief explanation, he took the main seat.
In the Victoria Villa, Chen Caiyue looked at the puppy that had fallen asleep peacefully, gently covered it with a blanket, then turned around and stared at Chen Xi.
"Shanshan doesn't seem to be coming back this year. Her mother and I talked on the phone before."
"Yes, I know."
"You know what you know. Shanshan is in a bad mood recently. Please call her more and care about her when you have time."
Chen Caiyue put her hands on her hips and stared at him.
"I know." Chen Xi nodded.
Zhao Lingshan's recent depression is probably related to her parents, but he can't interfere in this kind of thing, he can only comfort her.
In their previous lives, after their parents divorced, they had communicated on this topic countless times.
At that time, Chen Xi was trapped in a gambling quagmire and his mood was even lower than that of Zhao Lingshan. In the end, it was probably the other party who was comforting him.
Among Xinlu’s friends, their parents divorced quite late. Ji Qingchuan and Zhang Qiming’s parents divorced when they were in elementary school.
Chen Xi couldn't figure out why. It seemed that the parents of his friends were all divorced, and some were divorced more than once.
“Hey.” He sighed deeply while smoking a cigarette and sitting in the yard.
Suddenly I thought of my father and the factory I hadn’t been to for a long time.
He put out the cigarette butt in his hand and stood up from the chair.
