288: Chapter 287: Connecting the Line 288: Chapter 287: Connecting the Line Fu Bochuan came to the Linwu Public Security Bureau leisurely, just as usual.
Since he successfully took this position three years ago, these past three years could really be described as flourishing.
Although he had the opportunity to transfer to a police station in Donglin City and become the chief, he decisively rejected it.
He felt quite comfortable in his current spot; if he went to Donglin City, the situation would have been entirely different.
Though the opportunities in Donglin City might have been greater, with a chance to move up a notch to become a deputy director of Donglin City’s bureau.
LW County is just a small county under the jurisdiction of Donglin City, a notch below it, naturally making it a big difference.
He barely sat down in his office when the young, beautiful, and sexy female secretary directly came up to him and said, “Chief, there are two people claiming to be from Donglin City looking for you.”
“Donglin City?” Fu Bochuan casually frowned.
The corners of Fu Bochuan’s mouth lifted, revealing a somewhat smug smile.
“Did they mention their background?” asked Fu Bochuan.
There were many people who wanted to meet him every day, but he wouldn’t meet just anyone.
The secretary said, “A beautiful woman, who claims to be from the Donglin City Public Security Bureau, said she knows you, Chief.
There’s also a handsome guy and another beautiful woman, but it’s not clear what their backgrounds are.”
“Oh, from the city bureau, then please invite them in quickly.” Hearing that it was from the city bureau, Fu Bochuan did not dare to be careless and immediately perked up, giving the secretary’s plump buttocks a pat.
The secretary seemed to enjoy it all, twisted her waist, and walked outside.
Shortly after, she brought in Tangyu and two others.
Fu Bochuan had also risen to greet them.
His gaze swiftly scanned the three of them, quickly settling on Song Qingyu’s face, showing a bit of surprise, “Yo, isn’t this Captain Song from the Donglin bureau?
It’s a real honor to have you.
Captain Song, you should have called ahead so I could have arranged something.”
Fu Bochuan played his bureaucratic role well.
In reality, he had hardly any rapport with Song Qingyu, having met her only two or three times at meetings, knowing her name and her role at most.
However, Song Qingyu did not care about this and smiled, “Chief Fu, you are too polite.
I am not here on official business this time, just visiting LW County personally and bringing two friends along to see the environment here.”
“Oh.” Fu Bochuan, a man of great shrewdness, could hear some underlying meanings in Song Qingyu’s words.
His gaze also measured Tangyu and Liu Shanshan for a moment.
Tangyu gave him an inscrutable feeling.
Though dressed plainly, Fu Bochuan could feel an aura around him that ordinary people did not possess.
This man must be no ordinary man.
When he looked at Liu Shanshan, she was as breathtakingly beautiful as Team Captain Song, both extraordinarily stunning women flanking a man, which indeed made him quite envious.
To be honest, Fu Bochuan recognized Song Qingyu more because of her stunning beauty.
He believed that anyone who had met Song Qingyu once would find it hard to forget her.
Handsome men tend to have beautiful women by their side, and Fu Bochuan always found this saying to be very true.
“Hehe, it seems Captain Song has come to LW County to take care of some important matters.
If there’s anything I can help with, Captain Song, don’t hesitate to tell me,” Fu Bochuan said with a laugh.
“Hehe, this time I really didn’t come for no reason.
I do indeed need to trouble you, Chief Fu,” said Song Qingyu.
Fu Bochuan said, “Look how excited I am.
Come Captain Song, and you two distinguished guests, please have a seat here.” Fu Bochuan led Tangyu and the others to the sofas to sit down, and motioned to the secretary to serve tea.
Liu Shanshan did not sit down but stood behind Tangyu, now playing the role of Tangyu’s secretary.
This subtle shift was also fully observed by Fu Bochuan, who became even more curious about Tangyu.
This young man seemed to have quite a background, and Fu Bochuan’s favorite thing was dealing with extraordinary people.
“Chief Fu, let me introduce you.
This is my good friend, Tangyu.
He is the Expansion Department Manager at Lin Group, highly trusted and cultivated by President Lin of Lin Group.
Don’t be fooled by his ordinary appearance; his character is simply too low-key,” Song Qingyu introduced.
Tangyu stood up with a graceful smile and extended his hand, “Hello, Chief Fu, I’ve long admired your reputation.”
Fu Bochuan’s face immediately showed a few traces of astonishment as he reassessed Tangyu.
His actions were unhindered, his hand already shaking hands with Tangyu, his face also spreading a few smiles, “Indeed, a hero from youth.
At such a young age to have achieved so much, the future is immeasurable, ahaha.”
He was also greatly surprised in his heart.
Lin Group was a giant corporation in Donglin City with assets calculated in the hundreds of billions.
A manager of the expansion department was also a high-ranking executive.
No wonder he felt he couldn’t see through him.
If this had been said by someone else, he would have doubted it, but coming from Song Qingyu, the credibility was quite high.
Additionally, having mingled in the official circles for so many years, Fu Bochuan still had the ability to evaluate people.
Whether someone was a dragon or a phoenix could not be seen at a glance, but he still possessed the power to read people.
“Haha, where, Director Fu, you flatter me.
Linwu County is indeed your turf, and there may be many more occasions in the future when I will need to trouble Director Fu,” Tangyu said with a smile, as compliments cost nothing.
“Haha, young people do things efficiently and boldly.
If there is anything, just tell me, and if I can do it, I will absolutely not refuse,” Fu Bochuan became even more satisfied with Tangyu, finding this young man to his liking.
Young people nowadays generally lack manners.
Flattery will get you everywhere.
Fu Bochuan looked at Song Qingyu and said, “Captain Song, just speak directly, there’s no need to be so formal.”
Song Qingyu nodded and smiled, “Director Fu is a straightforward person, so I’ll speak frankly.
Director Fu, my friend here is visiting Linwu County partly to tour around and also to witness the development of Linwu County firsthand.
It’s been over a year since I last came here, and I almost couldn’t recognize the place with all the changes.
It seems you have done a lot of work in this area, Director Fu.”
“Haha, where, where, it’s just some necessary work.
We, the public servants, are here to strive for the construction of the city,” Fu Bochuan said modestly, though he was quite pleased internally.
“Director Fu, I apologize for the intrusion, but I would appreciate it if you could connect me; my friend here wants to meet with President Cai of Cai Corporation to talk,” Song Qingyu said.
“Oh,” Fu Bochuan looked at Tangyu with a meaningful smile and said, “It seems Mr.
Tang is indeed interested in establishing a business venture in our Linwu County.” His words were calm, yet not without a probing intent.
Tangyu responded with an elegant smile, “Although the market in Donglin City is vast, it also has many challenges.
Lin Group’s expansion in Donglin City has also reached a bottleneck, and it is not easy to break through further.
As the manager of the expansion department, my duty is to explore all potential markets.
My vision is not limited to Donglin City, which is also why I am visiting Linwu County this time.
Geographically, Linwu County is advantageously located next to Donglin City, making its development rapidly change, rivaling that of some cities.
During the past few days, I also took a good tour around Linwu County, and I found that while real estate here has some potential, there is still a lack in planning and scale.
The real estate market in Donglin City is already saturated, and there’s hardly room for further flexing.
I have a premonition that the future focus of the real estate industry may shift to the areas surrounding Donglin City, and Linwu County is certainly an excellent location.
Thus, I want to plan something here, and if possible, I will apply to my superior for a project.
As far as I know, thirty percent of Linwu County’s real estate industry is under the control of Cai Corporation.
That’s why I want to meet President Cai to see if there’s a possibility for collaboration in a few major real estate projects.”
“Oh, I see.
Mr.
Tang, you really have far-sightedness, which is truly admirable.
I believe Mr.
Cai will also be very interested.
Introducing you is easy.
How about I set up a lunch meeting to invite President Cai?
It’s a good occasion for me to play host and treat the three of you,” Fu Bochuan said.
“Haha, it’s still early now, isn’t it?
It’s not lunchtime yet.
How about this, Director Fu, why don’t you call Mr.
Cai, and we can visit his company personally?
I can book a lunch later,” Tangyu said with a smile.
“How can that be, how can I let guests pay the bill?
I must handle the lunch,” Fu Bochuan said.
“Alright then, thank you very much for your generous hospitality, Director Fu,” Tangyu graciously accepted.
Fu Bochuan immediately called President Cai and briefly explained the situation.
Naturally, coming from Fu Bochuan himself, President Cai had no doubts and showed a high degree of interest and enthusiasm, saying he was looking forward to their visit to the company.
Even though Cai Corporation was a leading enterprise in Linwu County, it wasn’t a notable name in Donglin City.
For a true giant like Lin Group, even if a collaboration wasn’t possible, forming a good relationship was beneficial.
With this affair, there might be an opportunity to form a connection.
If a collaboration with Lin Group could be established, perhaps Cai Corporation could even break into the Donglin City market.
Having stayed in Linwu County for a long time, one always thinks of going out to see the wider world.
As an international financial center, Donglin City is perhaps every businessman’s dream location.
Competing there is like playing on the grand stage of life.
“Haha, President Cai is waiting for you at the company.
Do you know the way?
If not, I can have someone take you there,” Fu Bochuan said.
“We know the way.
We’ll head there first and see you at noon,” Tangyu said as he stood up and reached out his hand.
