- Li Meihan lamented in her heart that it was a pity that Chen Zheng did not want to be in the media field.
Yes, reporting on the commercial bribery of a multinational company, a domestic pharmaceutical company and a national department store chain is sensational enough, but it is far from bringing down all the corrupt officials in various provinces and cities and has a huge impact.
Now is the time for the nationwide anti-corruption campaign. If this news comes out, it will definitely be a bombshell.
"But" Li Meihan pondered for a moment and asked: "Who are those corrupt officials, and how do you know? Do you want to use Wang Fei to spy on Liu Dahai for you?"
Chen Zheng smiled and said: "The princess is just a woman after all. No matter how noble she looks, she is just a prostitute and a concubine. It is expected that Liu Dahai will not let the princess know about such a confidential thing. Otherwise, if the city government If he doesn¡¯t, how can he become the richest man in Canghai City?¡±
"That's true." Li Meihan agreed with Chen Zheng's view and nodded.
"Wang Feifei is also useful to us. At least she is by Liu Dahai's side and knows some of Liu Dahai's movements. However, we cannot rely on her for key information. I will find another way." Chen Zheng added: "As for me , Liu Dahai and I have met, it should be difficult to start, Dingxin Pharmaceutical is just a small head, most likely, we have to start with that foreigner Pete Young. If we can find something from him, it will be much easier. "
"Well, that's right, and Peter Young is the president of a foreign company in China and is suspected of cross-border commercial bribery, which is even more newsy." Li Meihan agreed again.
"So we investigate separately. If I have any information, I will notify you in time. When the time comes, I will post it all online and cause a sensation." Chen Zheng is full of confidence: "When the time comes, whether I have to deal with Liu Dahai It¡¯s much easier to acquire Dingxin Pharmaceutical.¡±
During the conversation, the two of them had already walked to the car.
Li Meihan opened the car door, but did not get in the car immediately. Instead, he suddenly smiled and said: "So this time, just like before, you are also using me to help you fight against your opponents? Then you have to treat me to a meal as a reward."
"We each get what we need. Not only are you helping me, can't you also get news from it?" This is indeed true. Chen Zheng followed up and said: "But I should treat you to a meal. Let's go. Come on, let¡¯s go to the restaurant.¡±
¡°Where are we going to the restaurant?¡± Li Meihan asked.
¡°I¡¯ll show you the way and you drive,¡± Chen Zheng smiled mysteriously: ¡°You¡¯ll know the place when you get there. Let¡¯s go have a big meal today.¡±
Half an hour later, in the busiest area of ??Canghai City, Chen Zheng and Li Meihan had already arrived in front of the destination restaurant.
Speaking of which, this restaurant is still Chen Zheng¡¯s property.
That¡¯s because Chen Zheng helped Ellie annex the Flying Eagle Gang and strengthen the Evil Dragon Gang. Ai Li specially bought it as a gift for Chen Zheng.
However, this restaurant has been under the name of Chen Zheng for a few months. Chen Zheng only ate there once with Ai Li, and has not been here a second time yet. Chen Zheng didn't even bother with the restaurant's accounts.
This time I brought Li Meihan here. Firstly, it¡¯s a good idea to go to a high-end restaurant, and secondly, after dinner, ask the restaurant manager about the business situation.
But just by looking at it, you can tell that this restaurant is making a lot of money.
There are not too many guests. But no matter judging from the luxury cars parked outside or the attire of the guests inside, they all look like wealthy people. A meal here is definitely worth a lot of money.
Chen Zheng did not reveal his identity from the beginning, but entered the restaurant with Li Meihan. Under the guidance of the waiter, he chose a seat and sat down, allowing Li Meihan to order as he pleased.
"Oh my God!" Li Meihan just opened the menu and couldn't help but exclaimed. Then she felt lost and quickly lowered her voice and continued to say to Chen Zheng: "The food here is too expensive. Let's not eat here again. I know a store , a steak costs thirty for others, but it costs seven hundred here"
Even Chen Zheng was shocked. This kind of high-end restaurant is indeed a shop that rips off customers. Even if the steak here tastes better than others, the price is still twenty times better!
The strange thing is that there are actually people who are so willing to be slaughtered.
But Chen Zheng was not afraid of being slaughtered and smiled slightly: "It doesn't matter. Since you are here, don't bother anymore. Just do whatever you want, I will pay for it anyway."
"That's true." Li Meihan thought for a while and said, "You are an international star now. If I don't kill anyone else, I will order lobster."
After saying that, Li Meihan stretched out her hand and called the waiter.
But Chen Zheng didn¡¯t care at all. Anyway, after finishing his meal, he called the restaurant manager to reveal his identity and his own store. Why did he still need to spend his own money?Not only did Li Meihan let her order whatever she wanted, but Chen Zheng then opened the recipe himself.
The high-end ones are indeed different. I don¡¯t know which language the recipes are written in, but I can¡¯t understand the text. Chen Zheng can understand the Arabic numerals at the back that indicate the price, so he ordered the two most expensive ones.
"There's so much, can't we eat it?" Li Meihan still felt a little sad for Chen Zheng.
"It doesn't matter. It's rare to invite you together, so I'd better be generous." After saying that, Chen Zheng had already raised the red wine that the waiter had just opened and poured: "Here, let's drink to our mutual help and mutual benefit."
"That's right, cheers to our unparalleled cooperation!"
The two drank it all in one gulp.
¡¡
A delicious dinner was finished quickly. When the dinner was over and Chen Zheng was about to call the restaurant manager, Li Meihan thought that Chen Zheng had no money to pay the bill and wanted to have a meal and was deliberately looking for trouble.
Of course, it turned out quickly that Chen Zheng was the owner of this restaurant.
The restaurant manager respectfully presented the restaurant¡¯s business accounts for the past few months for Chen Zheng to review, but Chen Zheng just looked through them casually. After making a profit of about one million yuan, he handed the accounts back to the manager.
Naturally, there was no need to pay the bill, and he took Li Meihan out of the restaurant.
"I asked you why you are so generous. It turns out that you don't have to pay the bill." Li Meihan said jokingly: "I didn't expect it. It seems that you made a movie, won an Oscar, and made a lot of money. Everything. I invested in opening my own restaurant.¡±
Li Meihan doesn¡¯t know the entire scope of Chen Zheng¡¯s career. In fact, all she knows is Chen Zheng¡¯s martial arts gym and medical clinic.
Chen Zheng smiled bitterly in his heart, what is this? It¡¯s not like she doesn¡¯t have billions of RMB. I¡¯m afraid Li Meihan will be shocked if she mentions it.
But Chen Zheng kept a low profile. He just shook his head but didn't say anything.
"This restaurant is so high-end, the decoration is so elegant, and the chef's level is so high. And in such a prosperous place, a lot of money needs to be invested? Is it tens of millions?" Li Meihan asked again.
?????????????????Honestly, how much money was invested in this restaurant. Chen Zheng still really doesn't know.
At first, Ellie wanted to repay Chen Zheng because he helped her a lot. The internal accounts of the Evil Dragon Gang are managed by the government. Ellie has clear rewards and punishments and the accounts are open to the public. Therefore, she cannot give Chen Zheng any benefit from the gang's income, so she simply bought the restaurant and gave it to Chen Zheng. And knowing that Chen Zheng didn't like management, they helped him find a professional manager to take charge of the management, just to let Chen Zheng reap the profits every month.
But thinking about it, Ellie¡¯s move shouldn¡¯t be too small. What's more, I just looked at the accounts and it's only been a few months, and I've already made nearly a million. I'm afraid the investment in the restaurant will be indispensable.
So Chen Zheng just nodded and smiled: "Absolutely."
"Opening a restaurant is very profitable, I didn't expect it. When we first met, you were not necessarily richer than me, but now you are the big boss." Li Meihan sighed, and suddenly changed the subject: "I don't know which one A woman is lucky to be with a rich man like you, and such a handsome man at such a young age.¡±
"Why, are you asking me if I have a girlfriend?" Chen Zheng asked.
"Tch, I don't care about this. You don't think I'm a woman who wants a sugar daddy, do you?" Li Meihan curled her lips disdainfully, but then asked: "But seriously, do you have a girlfriend?" ?¡±
Chen Zheng not only has a girlfriend, he also has two wives - of course, they are both underground, namely Anna and Jones.
But Chen Zheng has been in the city for a long time and has learned to play ambiguously. He smiled slightly and said, "Don't you care? Since you don't care, I won't tell you either."
After saying that, he walked to the car, opened the door and got in the car.
Li Meihan didn¡¯t ask much, but there was a small ripple in her heart.
After all, what woman wouldn¡¯t dream of Cinderella¡¯s dream? What's more, when she just met Chen Zheng, before he had any money, Li Meihan was already a little attracted to him
¡¡
In the following days, Chen Zheng did not contact Li Meihan again, and both parties launched separate investigations into the commercial bribery case.
Li Meihan used reporters' methods to inquire and conduct secret interviews, but Chen Zheng had no choice.
¡°On the one hand, Wang Feifei was asked to find opportunities to get close to Liu Dahai and seduce him.
This step went smoothly. The princess was indeed a socialite. She just met Liu Dahai at a private party, and with a little trick, Liu Dahai was willing to be her servant, and the two hooked up again. Together.
However, useful information cannot be collected in a short period of time.??.
Chen Zheng was not in a hurry. On this day, he came to Mayor Hao's office in the municipal party committee building.
Last time, Chen Zheng came to see Mayor Hao because of the Feng Shui array caused by Yang Bowang on Baicao Industry. He also hurriedly left after finding out the investors of these buildings, without safely fulfilling his duties as an urban planning consultant.
Now that we have a way to fight Yang Bowang, we just want to make some planning suggestions. Based on the Feng Shui array arranged by Yang Bowang, we can form a new serial array to benefit ourselves.
Chen Zheng was also Mayor Hao¡¯s guest, so upon seeing his arrival, the mayor¡¯s secretary took Chen Zheng directly into the office without even announcing his arrival.
Mayor Hao is also inside, and not only himself, there is another person standing side by side with Mayor Hao. The two of them are looking at the sand table model of Canghai New District in front of them and pointing.
The other person, who looks to be the oldest in his thirties, wears a pair of glasses, is gentle and elegant, and his skin is white and tender. Judging from his appearance, he should be a very knowledgeable intellectual.
Sure enough, when he saw Chen Zheng arriving, Mayor Hao quickly came up to him, took his hand, and introduced him: "Xiao Chen, you're here just in time. Come on, let me introduce you to him. This is also our expert consultant in Canghai City." The newly hired planning consultant in the group is called Shen Zhe, who is an internationally renowned environmental art design expert. "
"Environmental art design?" Such a new term, Chen Zheng could not immediately understand what he did.
Mayor Hao then introduced Chen Zheng: "Speaking of environmental art. This is a very comprehensive category, larger than architecture, broader than planning, and simply an all-encompassing art. And this Dr. Shen Zhe is China¡¯s pride in this area. The urban areas he has designed have won awards around the world!¡±
"Mayor Hao, you are so complimentary." The expert named Shen Zhe said modestly. Then he took the initiative to shake hands with Chen Zheng. Because he heard Mayor Hao call him "Xiao Chen", he addressed him respectfully: "Mr. Chen. Hello."
"Dr. Shen, this is Mr. Chen Zhengchen." Mayor Hao introduced Chen Zheng again.
"Ah?" As soon as he heard Chen Zheng's name, Shen Zhe couldn't hide his excitement: "Are you Mr. Chen Zhengchen? I'm disrespectful. I've admired you for a long time."
Chen Zheng didn¡¯t realize it. He had not made any achievements in the field of urban planning, and he was not like Shen Zhe. He was well-known, so how could he say that he had been ¡°admired for a long time¡±?
"Mr. Chen Zheng, Mayor Hao has told me a long time ago that **10% of the planning of our Canghai New District was based on your opinion?" Shen Zhe asked.
After receiving Chen Zheng's affirmative reply, Shen Zhe said excitedly: "Mr. Chen Zheng, you are amazing. Mayor Hao asked me to put forward opinions, but I couldn't put them forward at all. Even if I did, it could only be based on subtle details. ¡ª¡ªFor example, let¡¯s talk about the exterior decoration of a certain building. Because the overall planning of Canghai City is so harmonious that it is like a well-written poem. Adding one word will make it look a little different. It¡¯s cumbersome, and if you delete a word, it¡¯s a little less full. It¡¯s simply not published and cannot be changed at all! I, Shen Zhe, admire it very much!¡±
Chen Zheng was sweating. He didn¡¯t expect that he was a half-hearted urban planning consultant. It was actually praised by experts and doctors.
Before Chen Zheng could speak, Mayor Hao said first: "Dr. Shen, it's rare for you to know the goods. To be honest, Mr. Chen Zheng is a Taoist, and he uses Feng Shui to give me suggestions." For a while, an investigation team came from above to investigate feudal superstitions, so I didn¡¯t dare to tell anyone. If it weren¡¯t for you being one of our own, I wouldn¡¯t be able to tell you.¡±
"So Mr. Chen is still a master?" Shen Zhe was stunned again, and then said: "Feng shui is good, this is a treasure left by our ancestors!"
"So Dr. Shen also agrees with Feng Shui?" Chen Zheng was a little surprised, because in today's era, due to education, it seems that all people with a little knowledge like Western learning, while those who despise Taoism think it is superstitious dross. .
But that¡¯s not always the case, Shen Zhe is one of them.
"Master Chen, of course I agree with Feng Shui." Then Shen Zhe clasped his fingers and said in succession: "Feng Shui is a combination of environmental planning, environmental mathematics, environmental geosciences, environmental physics, environmental meteorology, environmental economics, and environmental science. The knowledge that integrates many disciplines such as engineering, environmental ecology, etc. is incredible! ¡±
Even Mayor Hao was shocked: "Oh? Feng Shui is so powerful?"
What Shen Zhe said is correct. Although Chen Zheng didn't understand the many subjects he mentioned, the word Feng Shui put it bluntly. In fact, it was the environment.
Where the environment is good, Feng Shui is generally good, because the content of Feng Shui is nothing more than the Qi, which is to give people overall??Feeling.
Qi has different conditions. Just like Chinese medicine says that a person's complexion and good complexion means that he is in a good mental state and has a positive attitude, and good things will happen to him. At least it means that his body is still healthy.
On the contrary, if you are in a bad mental state and feel depressed, it is either due to bad luck and misfortune, or it can easily be caused by illness.
And for cities, cities also have spiritual outlook and Qi, which is Feng Shui!
Chen Zheng didn't say anything, but Shen Zhe spoke first: "Mayor Hao, Feng Shui is certainly powerful, but don't underestimate it. In fact, now abroad, especially in Asian countries, many environmental art courses in developed areas include learning as part of it. Chinese Feng Shui was taught in our country for a while, but later it was canceled because it promoted feudal superstition. "
"You who study environmental art actually study Feng Shui?" This was something Chen Zheng didn't expect.
"That's right. In fact, Feng Shui was expressed by the ancients using their words. In addition, the understanding of later generations was limited, so it was tainted with the theory of ghosts and gods. However, modern people should be able to distinguish, remove the rough and keep the essence, and should not Just abandon it." Shen Zhe was heartbroken and said: "Look at the cities built in accordance with Feng Shui in the past, and the layout was very good. However, the cities built later in our country did not learn from the West and the things of our ancestors. Everything was lost, and as a result, the cities that were built haphazardly had a lot of problems in terms of transportation, drainage, airflow, etc., and people in them became more irritable. "
This is all true, Chen Zheng sighed with emotion.
"Master Chen, your Feng Shui skills are so powerful that you can completely integrate them with nature in urban construction. In the words of the ancients, this is called the unity of man and nature! Master Chen, accept me as your apprentice and teach me Feng Shui. Technique!¡±
Shen Zhe suddenly changed the topic, which really shocked Chen Zheng.
Seeing that Chen Zheng was silent, Shen Zhe continued: "Master Chen, please don't refuse. To be honest, because of my professional relationship, I have always wanted to integrate Chinese Feng Shui into the art of environmental design. . In fact, I did try this. I once found many Feng Shui masters to teach me Feng Shui, and I was somewhat basic. It was precisely because of this that the designs I made won international awards. " Shen Zhe said: "Master Chen, your Feng Shui skills are so shocking to me. Please teach me."
It can be seen that he is very sincere.
However, he was not interested in Taoist culture, but wanted to improve it and add it to his major. Therefore, Chen Zheng hesitated, thought about it, and declined: "Dr. Shen, you are a doctor, but I can't even study in elementary school. If you haven¡¯t done it before, don¡¯t make fun of me.¡±
"No, no, no, I'm not joking, I mean it. Master Chen, can you just bear to see Chinese Feng Shui decline and be lost? Don't you want to carry it forward and let the world know its benefits? By then, Isn¡¯t it good for us to promote Chinese Feng Shui so that foreigners can admire it, learn it, and apply it to architecture?¡±
Don¡¯t tell me, this sentence directly touched Chen Zheng¡¯s heartstrings.
Because this was exactly what Chen Zheng was thinking, and it was also what his master, Taoist Master Gu, had given him as his last wish before his death.
??Chinese Feng Shui is good for spreading among the Chinese, but for foreigners to find it powerful, many problems cannot be solved, especially the translation of many terms in Taoism.
But if it is combined with the so-called environmental art and Dr. Shen Zhe finds a way to package it, then there will be no problem. Chen Zheng suddenly became enlightened. - Didn't finish reading?
