Chapter 893 Chamber of Commerce
Li Xiongfei's capital is not ranked in Tangcheng, but his reputation is very good, so he was elected as the vice president.
Zhang Xiaobai took Li Bao to Lijia Village specially, carrying two bottles of good wine and cigarettes.
Li Bao did not ask for mercy, Li Xiongfei said on the spot that there was no problem.
Always remember Zhang Xiaobai's kindness, this little thing must be done.
In fact, he thought that this matter was justified. With Zhang Xiaobai's current status and position, even if he did not take the initiative to join, the Chamber of Commerce would probably extend an olive branch, not to mention the addition of Li Xianglong.
Zhang Xiaobai did not say his real purpose, one is to scare Uncle Li, and the other is not to implicate him.
In fact, Zhang Xiaobai felt a little guilty. If the plan really succeeded, it might affect the interests of these friends.
For example, Li Xiongfei, Brother Hao, and Shitou all have mines now, so it is inevitable that they will be affected.
Regarding this point, Zhang Xiaobai has not yet found a suitable solution.
After the talk, Li Xiongfei asked Zhang Xiaobai to wait for a few days, and he would arrange a meeting later.
Zhang Xiaobai and Li Bao drove back to Tangcheng.
Zhang Xiaobai drank some wine with the old man, but the little bald man didn't drink and drove.
Zhang Xiaobai lit a cigarette and said, "Xiaobao, do you think I did the right thing?"
Li Bao smiled and said, "Yes, there is no wrong time for me, Brother Bai, in the society."
Li Bao's worship of Zhang Xiaobai is unreasonable.
Zhang Xiaobai said: "Then do you know? If my business succeeds, your family will be affected and you won't be able to make so much money!"
Li Bao smiled and said: "I know! Brother Bai, Xiaobao is not stupid, I can think of these things, but I still support you!"
"Brother Bai, let's not talk about whether this is right or not. Are you bored and doing such a thankless thing? Is the steel industry bubble bursting? Is the environment in Tangcheng good? It has nothing to do with you? Dengfeng is not making a lot of money?"
"Brother Bai, but you still did it. Just based on this point, I am convinced! Let's take a look at the things in front of us, you can see everything from a long distance! So Xiaobao admires you and supports you!"
Zhang Xiaobai smoked, looked at the mines in the distance, looked at the haze in the sky, and said: "I don't see far, I just think this is not good, very bad!"
After speaking, Zhang Xiaobai closed his eyes to rest.
Suddenly, he felt very tired!
What Xiaobao said touched his heart. Can't I make money well? Why bother with these crappy things? Do you have a shitty sense of social responsibility?
In this society, the winners are the kings and the losers are the bandits, no matter what means you use.
But, he can't do it!
In addition, he must do what he promised Su Tong.
…
…
Li Xiongfei is efficient in his work, and he will attend the meeting to join the Chamber of Commerce three days later.
There are more than 200 people sitting in the large conference room of Tangcheng Hotel, but that's not all, the meeting was too urgent and some people didn't have time to attend.
Zhang Xiaobai and Li Xianglong finally walked into the conference room, and the whole room was filled with smoke.
The Chamber of Commerce is a non-governmental organization. When Yang Beidou was the president, he did not formulate any strict rules and regulations, so that it looked like a group of people watching a show like uncles.
He said this loudly with a cigarette in his mouth and even spitted.
Zhang Xiaobai frowned. People outside said that Tangcheng was a city of local tyrants. This statement has both positive and negative meanings.
Local tyrants seem to have no quality.
But now it seems that they really have no quality.
In fact, it's no wonder. Most of the people sitting here are miners, and most of the miners are rural people. Their living habits are like this.
The year 2000 is called the watershed, from which the steel industry gradually developed, and the following years were of great significance to the national economy.
In the past few years, the national wealth has been reshuffled, and wealth has flowed from traditional industries to coal, steel, and the Internet industry.
Fortunately, there are many acquaintances, Zhao Tianhao, Shi Lei, Jiang Yingquan and others came to support.
Zhang Xiaobai and Li Xianglong sat next to them.
As soon as they sat down, people who knew them and didn't know them came to show their goodwill.
These two are the CEOs of the first and second largest steel mills in Tangcheng, and they must be flattered.
Li Xiongfei presided over the meeting, and Tang Jing did not attend.
He would not come to be empty, and went straight to the point. Li Xiongfei talked about the content of this meeting and injected some new blood into the Tangcheng Chamber of Commerce.
In fact, it is not only Zhang Xiaobai and Li Xianglong who want to join the Chamber of Commerce this time. Every year, some people quietly rise up, and they also want to join this big family.
Even if it is not for anything else, just the title of Tangcheng Chamber of Commerce member feels very awesome.
The vote is just a formality, and almost no one will fail.
Half an hour later, the voting results came out. Surprisingly, the votes of Li Xianglong, an outsider, were more than Zhang Xiaobai.
No wonder, after all, Zhang Xiaobai had just been rumored to have a conflict with Tang Jing, and Tang Jing was very popular, so some people spoke up for her.
Fortunately, they all passed.
Meetings have never been the purpose. The most important program of the Tangcheng Chamber of Commerce is the big dinner.
It seems that there is such a convention in the north. Whether it is friends meeting or talking about business, it will be done at the wine table.
Drinking and drinking will bring about feelings, and talking and talking about things will be done.
This is the wine table culture.
Everyone will pay dues at the beginning of the year, as the operating funds of the Chamber of Commerce, and someone is specifically responsible for management.
After the meeting, everyone went directly to the hall, where everything was arranged long ago, and started eating and drinking.
Unknowingly, Zhang Xiaobai and Li Xianglong became the protagonists, and everyone came forward to introduce themselves and congratulate them.
Zhang Xiaobai did not sit with his friends. The seats seemed to be divided according to industry. This table either ran a steel factory or an election factory.
Only by sitting in this way can communication and cooperation be more convenient.
In addition to Li Xiongfei and Li Xianglong, there was an acquaintance at this table, Zhang Ruihua, formerly of Ruihua Steel.
However, Zhang Ruihua never showed a smile and was just drinking and picking up food.
Zhang Xiaobai kicked the wine glass and said with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, I respect you!"
Zhang Ruihua snorted coldly, raised his eyelids and said, "I can't bear it!"
Everyone was shocked by this sentence, and the atmosphere was a bit awkward.
Zhang Xiaobai remained calm, still smiling, and drank half the glass of wine in one gulp, "Mr. Zhang, I'll punish myself with one drink!"
"Mr. Zhang has a good drinking capacity!" someone clapped during the period.
Zhang Ruihua said: "Zhang Xiaobai, I don't blame you for this. It's because I don't have the willpower. However, I have a straight temper and won't make fun of myself. It's really awkward to see you!"
Zhang Xiaobai said with a smile: "Actually, I won't take advantage of the situation. I sincerely apologize, but I really didn't know that the market would be so good at the time!"
Zhang Ruihua said: "We can't be friends. Now that you are prosperous, you can go your own way and I can do my small business. We can't do anything against each other!"
Zhang Xiaobai smiled and thought that we might not be able to live in peace with each other. We will have to fight for the president in the future!
During a drinking session, Zhang Xiaobai did not sit idle. He took full advantage of his large capacity for drinking and kept changing glasses.
Silently write down the voices, smiles, and personalities of these steel mill bosses.
This is the biggest purpose of this trip!
