Chapter 248: The contest for President
Lu Xiaotian nodded again and again for Lin Changchu’s word: “As far as I know, President Zheng intends to let his son Zheng Sanduo take over, and he secretly has drawn a lot of votes.”
Ye Jiayao stunned: “Why don’t you prepare early as you know it?”
Lu Xiaotian smiled bitterly: “I just knew it last night, and I said it to Lin.”
Lin Changchun said: “This matter, Chairman Zheng really keeps that secret, if Lu doesn’t tell me, I still don’t know about it.”
Ye Jiayao was not happy. It doesn’t matter who was going to be the president. But Zheng Fugui did this was not appropriate. This chamber of commerce was the link between the government and businessmen, businessmen and businessmen, merchants and the market. The aim was to safeguard the interests of members and prosper the industry. The position of the president was especially important. How could his family have the final words?
“So, now we have to concentrate on recommending one person, so there is still a certain chance of winning.” Lu Xiaotian said.
Ye Jiayao absolutely understanded that they had already done their work ahead of time, and there would definitely be a group of people to admit it later, while the other part of the people would be on fence, they would go for the stronger side.
“Then needless to say, Lu shopkeeper, you are more suitable than me.” Ye Jiayao.
Lu Xiaotian said: “Ye, the shopkeeper, I am trying to be humble with you. You are indeed more suitable than me. I will say it later, I will recommend you.”
“Chairman Zheng is here…” Zhong Xiang said in whisper.
Ye Jiayao looked at the door and saw Zhen coming in with sullen face. His arm was marked with white flowers, followed by Zheng Sanduo, Lian Xingwang, Mei shopkeeper and others.
When people almost all came, Zheng Fugui cleared his voice and said: “To call everyone here today because there is an important matter to discuss with everyone. For personal reasons, I need to temporarily leave Jin Ling, so I can’t take care of the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce for the time being. According to the regulations of the Chamber of Commerce, I must resign from the position of the Chamber of Commerce and raise the appropriate person to serve. And President Zhang, some of you may already know that Vice President Zhang is not wellbeing, I am afraid he can’t continue working. So, let’s see, is there any suitable candidate?”
When Zheng Fugui’s words fell, Lian Xingwang said: “Since President Zheng has served as the president, his efforts and contributions to the Chamber of Commerce have been obvious to all. In particular, last year’s successful cooking competition won a lot praise. President Zheng needs to leave Jin Ling for personal reasons, but he does not have to resign. Let his son temporarily take the job. Mr. Zheng’s ability is also good!”
Someone immediately echoed: “Yes, yeah, Mr. Zheng is young and promising. I heard that Fu Ji has been taking care by him recent years, he has done very well.”
Those who had colluded well, all echoed and agreed.
In the voice of echo, Duan Qilin’s chilly voice seemed out of place.
“I oppose. President Zheng is going to Xuzhou to filial piety. This is not going to be a short period of time for him to be able to return. According to the regulations of the Chamber of Commerce, the president will serve for a term of five years. If he is unable to preside over the Chamber of Commerce for a long time, he must resign. The Chamber of Commerce has never been a proxy president.”
“Duan shopkeeper, we did not have a proxy president because it has not encountered such a condition before, other chambers of commerce have a proxy president, we cannot stick to it!” Mei shopkeeper slowly said.
Duan Qilin said coldly: “Even if there is a proxy president, it should also be recommended by everyone who is a good person. The Chamber of Commerce is everyone’s, but not a certain one.”
Zheng Fugui’s mouth twitched a bit, his look was very unhappy, but he was holding back his anger and even gave Xingwang a glance.
Lian Xingwang said: “Duan shopkeeper is so convinced that you are more suitable than Mr. Zheng to be the president?”
Duan Qilin coldly said: “I am not talented. But compared with Mr. Zheng, I am confident to win.”
“But I think my ability is not good enough to be the presidency. In the audience, I believe that the ones who can really be qualified as the president is Lu shopkeeper of Su Shan Fang and Ye shopkeeper of Heavenly Residence. .”
“Lu shopkeeper won a first place in last year’s culinary competition; his superb cooking is unquestionable. Moreover, his Su Shan Fang is an old brand. After he took over, the Su Shan Fang becomes even more brilliant. As for his strength and ability, who dare not be convinced? As for the Ye shopkeeper in the Heavenly Residence, holding the identity of the imperial kitchen chef, the business of the Heavenly Residence is so busy that none of us can compare. The frequency of coming out new dishes and management is also much better than all of us. I would like to ask, who in this room can say that they can compete with her? Moreover, the Ye shopkeeper has another heavy identity, that is, the second young lady of Jing’an Lord Mansion. When it comes to dealing with the government, who else is more suitable than her?”
Duan Qilin’s sharp eyes swept across the faces of the flattering. The guys avoided the his glance like nothing happened.
“I agree, recommending the promotion of the sage is because the Chamber of Commerce is for everyone. We should recommend a person with outstanding ability, and a heart thinking for the Chamber of Commerce, I recommend …” Lin Changchun loudly said.
Ye Jiayao quickly interrupted his words: “I recommend the Lu Shopkeeper, there are 2 winners come from Lu family, this is a rare story in a hundred years, the brand of Su Shan Fang in the Jin Ling and even the surrounding cities are all famous. Lu shopkeeper’s ability on cooking and the obsessive attitude is admirable. But what is even more admirable is his characteristics, never deceive in business. Treat people with sincere and courteous. I believe that if he becomes the president of the chamber of commerce, he will wholeheartedly serve the chamber of commerce. Of course, President Zheng’s contribution to the chamber of commerce is also indispensable. Because of this, the choice of the successor should be more cautious. We must not seek some better development of the chamber of commerce because of certain personal factors.”
Ye Jiayao was afraid that Lin Changchun will say her name. She only has some consideration in her heart. Lu Xiaotian’s reputation in the industry was excellent as well as cooking. He was also very kind. He was like Duan Qilin’s straightness. He was moderate, not too offensive, and the performance of his vegetarian restaurant is in the upper class in Jin Ling City, but it does not attract people’s hatred, unlike her. Her heavenly residence is too dazzling, how many people hate her so much. Facing her with smile but cursed her behind the back. So, on the odds, Lu Xiaotian was higher than her.
Lin Changchun immediately seconded: “Agree, I recommend Lu shopkeeper. There is no more suitable person than him.”
Duan Qilin also said: “I also recommend Lu shopkeeper.”
Lu Xiaotian’s original popularity was good. There was some people took the lead and immediately won the support of a large number of people.
Lu Xiaotian looked at Ye Jiayao deeply, he couldn’t help but smile. This Ye shopkeeper, really, gave him such an important burden.
Zheng Fugui’s face was black as the bottom of the pot. Today’s situation was in his expectation, but it was also not expected. He did not expect so many people to support Lu Xiaotian. The situation was that the two sides were evenly matched and equal.
It was useless to blame, it was all Sanduo’s fault. If he can get a better place in the cooking competition, there will be no such troubles, but it would go smoothly.
When it came to Zheng Sanduo, Zheng Fugui was not good to have a word, he could only signal other people to speak.
Mei shopkeeper said: “The ability of Lu shopkeeper is really good, but I still think Mr. Zheng is more suitable. After all, he and president Zheng are the son and father. The father and son are connected. Even if there is any problem, Zheng can always give help.”
Duan Qilin squinted at him, said straight forward: “I’m afraid Mei shopkeeper’s words is not right. Is it true that if others take president job, president Zheng will not offer help? Is President Zheng the kind of narrow-minded person who only helps his own kid but don’t help someone else?”
Duan Qilin did not change his expression and gave Zheng Fugui a punch.
The Mei shopkeeper was pinched and took the mistakes in the discourse. He didn’t know how to defend it.
Lian Xingwang said: “Duan shopkeeper, don’t take it out of context! The Mei shopkeeper does not mean that.”
“Does not mean that means what? I heard that means.” Lin Changchun helped.
“And, President Zheng is going to Xuzhou for filial piety, he can’t come back in a short time. If you have any problems, how can you ask for advice? Letters for advice? One return for century.” Someone snoring.
“In addition, there is no such rule of acting president in our chamber of commerce.”
Lian Xingwang’s forehead sweating, the other side’s offensive was strong.
“We don’t have this in the Chamber of Commerce. It’s because we haven’t encountered such a thing before! We can’t stick to it. Other chambers of commerce still have the acting president, and they do it very well. I believe that Mr. Zheng can Competent. “Lian Xingwang said awkardly .
“Oh, now the discussion is about who is competent, but who is more competent.” Ye Jiayao laughed.
“If this is the case, then vote to decide who has more votes and who will serve as the president.” Zheng Fugui looked at the situation at the moment and could not continue to argue. He just counted the number, and he still occupied the number on his own. He still had a little bit of meager advantage, as long as it could win, the difference of one vote was enough.
Ye Jiayao had also been observing those who had never spoken. These guys who seemed to have no idea, in fact, no one knows what in their mind. If they vote now, they were likely to lose.
Ye Jiayao suggested: “Before voting, let the two most vocal competitors say what they will do after the successor to the Chamber of Commerce. After all, it is about the interests of every member. Let’s get to know the idea of the new president who took office is also easy to make judgments.”
This proposal was reasonable, and Zheng Fugui was not good to refuse.
Zheng Sandu was eager to perform and immediately stood up: “Then I will talk about my thoughts first.”
Everyone sat straightly, waited for Zheng Sanduo’s speech.
Ye Jiayao was concerned about Lu Xiaotian’s reaction. Seeing that he was slightly frowning, he was obviously also using his brain.
“Cough.” Zheng Sanduo cleared the scorpion and said: “I can’t say those fancy things, and I won’t swear. I only have one idea, that is, to uphold my father’s purpose for the Chamber of Commerce. Welfare is at the forefront, fully listen to your opinions and demands, try to communicate with the government as much as possible, and exchange information with members…”
