Chapter 2286 - 2286

After Zhang Taikang finished his phone call, both grandfather and grandson were naturally overjoyed.

Although Zhang Xiaoyang couldn't show off in front of Wang Qichang, at least he could go to the scene and he could even host the live broadcast of the County Culture and Tourism. As for being a guest host, that was no problem for him.

Zhang Taikang said to his grandson, "Xiaoyang, go and do a good job! In the third generation of the Zhang Family, you are the eldest. You must seize the opportunity to promote the county you govern and bring glory to Southeast. Also, when you see Old Secretary Wang, be polite, humble, don't be too proud."

"Don't worry, Grandpa. I will definitely perform well. I represent the Southeast Zhang Family and I can't embarrass the family!"

"Alright! I won't keep you here for dinner. Hurry back to the county and prepare!"

"Okay, Grandpa. I'll go right away. Thank you, sir!"

"Silly child! Why say thank you? For your growth, if Grandpa can still be of use, he definitely will, ha ha..."

"Hmm, with a grandfather like this, why worry about the future, why worry about the Zhang Family's future, ha ha..."

"Ha ha..."

Immediately, Zhang Xiaoyang took a special car directly back to the county.

While in the car, he notified the County Culture and Tourism Bureau to partner with the county TV station to prepare a live broadcast team and choose a location around Ghost Gate.

Simultaneously, Zhang Xiaoyang also called Liu Zhizhong.

At this time, Liu Zhizhong had already returned to the city. Receiving Zhang Xiaoyang's call made him a bit uncomfortable.

Liu Zhizhong could guess that Zhang Xiaoyang was troubled about showing his face and would definitely try to find ways with the Zhang Family Clan.

Sure enough, everything was as Liu Zhizhong predicted!

Once the call connected, Zhang Xiaoyang coldly laughed several times, feeling very proud, "Liu Zhizhong, there's bad news. Want to hear it?"

Liu Zhizhong calmly replied, "County Head Zhang, stop pretending. Just say it. These tricks are pointless in front of me."

"Hmm…"

Zhang Xiaoyang snorted coldly twice and said, "My grandfather has already been in touch with Old Secretary Wang Qichang. There's a new development for tomorrow, and you have to accept this change. First of all..."

This guy smugly narrated everything to Liu Zhizhong.

Liu Zhizhong listened, then responded, "Alright, I wish Vice County Magistrate Zhang leads Shunping Culture and Tourism to deliver a great live broadcast! Of course, obviously, your live effect won't be great because the best spots and positions are on our side. You can piggyback on the traffic; if you want to showcase yourself in front of the Old Secretary, you've achieved your purpose, congratulations, haha..."

The laughter at the end was very cold!

Zhang Xiaoyang was secretly excited and said, "What's wrong? Is Director Liu unhappy? Haha... If you're unhappy, then I'm happy, haha... Tonight, I have to have a good time with my wife, play around, be merry, celebrate... Oh... Liu Zhizhong, Liu Zhizhong..."

But by this time, Liu Zhizhong had already hung up the phone.

Anything involving Gu Man doesn't interest Liu Zhizhong, so he didn't bother listening any longer.

Zhang Xiaoyang, this kind of person, is just using a former girlfriend to provoke Liu Zhizhong. But does Liu Zhizhong care about such romances? He's made a mistake, haha...

Liu Zhizhong returned to the city, first went home to freshen up, tidied up a bit, and went directly to meet his mentor Zhang Qidong.

After the master and student pair met, Liu Zhizhong drove Zhang Qidong's private car, a very common modern car, prepared to go to the highway exit to welcome Wang Qichang's team.

This time, there was no official reception, no need to alarm the local, as requested by Wang Qichang.

So, it's all about private hosting by Zhang Qidong and Liu Zhizhong.

Since Liu Zhizhong made Big Money, there was no need for the mentor to pay anything, he could handle it all.

Although Wang Qichang's delegation was low-key, a retired cadre with Pot Family level treatment definitely had a lot of service personnel.

So Liu Zhizhong booked the hotels, of course, the top ones in Dongnan City, ha ha...

Driving the mentor's car, Liu Zhizhong really felt that this scholar-type deputy mayor was really clean!

However, Liu Zhizhong did recount the matter between him and Zhang Xiaoyang, naturally mentioning Zhang Xiaoyang's use of Zhang Taikang.

Zhang Qidong smiled faintly, "Ha ha, the battle between you two young people is just beginning! However, in this round, you still hold the advantage, ha ha..."

Liu Zhizhong calmly said, "I wouldn't call it a battle! Zhang Xiaoyang politically represents the conservative forces and local hegemony. Although they act low-key now, politically they are still growing hornedly. Decades of Southeast Zhang Family, someone has to stand up against their unchecked growth, right?"

Zhang Qidong was slightly silent and said, "Zhizhong, your ambition is interesting. But the pressure here is layer upon layer. The Zhang Family currently shows no intention to suppress you, do you understand?"

"I know. But it does not mean they can indefinitely occupy Dongnan City. If that happens, the only sufferers will be outsider cadres and local citizens."

"True, you think very far ahead, but implementing it is extremely difficult."

"So, external cadres led by mentors must unite and strategize together! Currently, if the mentor can solidify the relationship with Old Loser Skill, it is indeed a significant progress. Regardless, as long as Zhang Taikang exists, the Zhang Family's influence won't be low; although in terms of outlasting age, he might not exceed Old Loser Skill, right? At present, the officials cultivated during Old Loser Skill's tenure are not few at all, even more than the Zhang Family! In my opinion, in our province, Old Loser Skill is like a towering tree, and it's really good to enjoy the shade under him!"

"Ha ha... you little rascal..."

Zhang Qidong laughed heartily, appreciating this student more and more.

Though he'd been in a vegetative state for over two years, once he recovered, his mind was still sharp, with an extraordinary insight into politics.

Subconsciously, the idea of recruiting Liu Zhizhong as a son-in-law seemed to grow stronger.

Zhang Qidong nodded, "Alright, you made a lot of points. This time, let Zhang Xiaoyang show his face in front of Old Loser Skill, let him show. And you, next, hmm..."

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Next March, your position will change, you're aware of that?"

Liu Zhizhong nodded, "Yeah, I'm like a revolutionary brick, and wherever the mentor needs, I'll go."

"Ha ha ha..." Zhang Qidong laughed heartily, "The City Culture and Tourism Bureau has a place for you! Of course, you'll be promoted to a full-level officer at that time. Going from deputy to full-level in half a year, the resistance is rather big, haha..."
