After the entrepreneurs, represented by Mr. Liu from BOE and Mr. Wang from BYD, finished their speeches on stage.

Lin Yi got up.

He represented Qinghe County and the heads of nine enterprises, taking the stage together.

The large screen behind them read:

New investment, new economy, new future

Launch ceremony for the Qinghe project investment project.

This is the most important part of today's conference. It should have been started by Wei Dongqing, the county party secretary, but Wei Dongqing took the initiative to suggest that Lin Yi start it.

It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he's afraid of being scolded!

That day, at the Yunshan investment promotion symposium, Xiao Yuan pointed his finger at him and accused him of stealing Lin Yi's credit, almost making him lose face.

Today, how could he dare to steal Lin Yi's thunder?

Upon seeing Lin Yi and the nine entrepreneurs take the stage, reporters from various media outlets, led by Xu Shimeng, surged forward like a tide, snapping photos to capture the beautiful moment.

After the launch ceremony, Lin Yi, as a representative of the Qinghe government, signed cooperation agreements with BOE, BYD, and another large auto parts company.

As for the remaining cooperation agreements between the companies and Qinghe, they will be signed after the conference.

The conference has now come to a successful conclusion.

The attending leaders and guests then moved to the banquet hall for a dinner.

"County Chief Lin, this is Wu Fang, a reporter from Xinhua News Agency. She would like to conduct a brief interview with you."

Xu Shimeng immediately approached Lin Yi, asking her friend at Xinhua News Agency to conduct a brief interview with him.

Xu Shimeng had chosen the interview location in advance: the reception room diagonally opposite the main hall of the conference.

"Ok."

Lin Yi nodded, and then followed Xu Shimeng and the Xinhua News Agency reporter to the reception room diagonally opposite.

Then, Lin Yi was stunned!

Because, in addition to Xinhua News Agency reporters, there were also reporters from People's Daily, Guangming Daily, Phoenix.com, etc.

Reporters from almost all the well-known domestic media outlets have arrived!

They had set up cameras, as if waiting for Lin Yi to hold a press conference!

Confused, Lin Yi whispered to Xu Shimeng:

"Shimeng, why are you making such a big fuss?"

"This is the first time our County Chief Lin is being interviewed, so we have to give him special treatment!"

Xu Shimeng tilted her snow-white chin up and said smugly.

Lin Yi smiled wryly, and then, under the direction of the Xinhua News Agency reporter, stood in the interview position.

"County Chief Lin, today's investment promotion conference was a complete success. Dozens of companies are willing to cooperate with Qinghe County. What do you think are the reasons for its success?"

The Xinhua News Agency reporter named Wu Fang asked the first question.

This was a question she had discussed with Xu Shimeng beforehand.

In Xu Shimeng's words, all issues must be in the best interests of our County Chief Lin!

"I believe there are four reasons."

First, the national strategic plan for the integrated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region has given our county a development opportunity.

Secondly, Dongjiang Province and Yunshan City attach great importance to the economic transformation pilot project in Qinghe County and have provided financial support to our county.

Third, major enterprises have actively seized the development opportunities presented by the country's new round of economic take-off and the comprehensive upgrading of the manufacturing industry, providing our county with opportunities for cooperation.

Fourth, the Qinghe County Party Committee and County Government unified their thinking, adhered to economic transformation, sought innovative development, resolved various difficulties, and provided excellent services to enterprises, laying a solid foundation for cooperation!

County Magistrate Lin is indeed quite capable.

Upon hearing Lin Yi's answer, Xinhua News Agency reporter Wu Fang and other reporters from various media outlets all sighed in admiration.

Xu Shimeng quietly gave a thumbs up!

Xinhua News Agency reporter Wu Fang continued to ask:

"County Chief Lin, Qinghe County is a resource-rich county, with its GDP mainly derived from the coal mining industry. Its industry is singular, and its industrial base is weak. Are you confident in Qinghe County's economic transformation? Where does your confidence come from?"

"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, our industrial base was very weak, but now it has developed into a major global manufacturing country and will become a manufacturing powerhouse in the future. The future development of Qinghe County will be a microcosm of the country's development. I am full of confidence in this!"

Lin Yi smiled, then said firmly:

"My confidence comes from the policy support of the country, the financial support of the province and city, the development opportunities of the times, and the hardworking and intelligent people of Qinghe County. The economic transformation of Qinghe County is a necessity of the times, an earnest expectation of the people, and a glorious mission that all staff members of the Qinghe County Party Committee and County Government must accomplish!"

Great!

Upon hearing Lin Yi's answer again, the reporters were filled with admiration.

Wu Fang from Xinhua News Agency and Pan Ling from People's Daily suddenly realized what was going on.

Although they were all Xu Shimeng's friends, after receiving Xu Shimeng's request to attend and report on the Qinghe County Investment Promotion Conference, they still inquired about the reasons behind it.

Xu Shimeng gave two reasons:

First, the central government has listed the integrated development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region as a national strategy and suggested that it should lead innovative development. Qinghe County is the first in the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei region and even the whole country to do this work. By participating in and reporting on this meeting, we can present a remarkable work performance to the leaders above.

Secondly, County Chief Lin is my boyfriend.

When Wu Fang and Pan Ling heard Xu Shimeng's second reason, they were shocked—how could the princess of the Xu family find a boyfriend from a poor family?

Now they understood that the calm and eloquent young man in front of them was a hidden dragon!

Half an hour later, Xinhua News Agency's interview with Lin Yi came to an end.

Reporters from other media outlets left one after another, leaving only Wu Fang and Pan Ling behind.

Xu Shimeng suggested that she and the two of them go to eat Qinghe cuisine, but Lin Yi suggested that they go to his uncle's restaurant.

Lin Zhengjun's restaurant has been open for some time and business is booming.

Then, just as Lin Yi was about to part ways with the three, he suddenly saw Wei Dongqing, the county party secretary, walk past the door of the reception room.

"Secretary Wei!"

Xu Shimeng's heart skipped a beat, and she immediately chased after him.

"Hello, Ms. Xu, is there anything I can help you with?"

Wei Dongqing asked politely.

He knew Xu Shimeng and had met her.

Xu Shimeng said with a smile:

"Secretary Wei, may I have a brief interview with you? There are also reporters from Xinhua News Agency and People's Daily in the reception room."

"Ok."

Wei Dongqing nodded with some pleasure.

Although he didn't know why Xu Shimeng did this, when he heard that reporters from People's Daily and Xinhua News Agency were also there, how could he refuse the opportunity to be in the limelight?

What kind of move is Shi Meng making?

In the reception room, Lin Yi was somewhat puzzled but didn't speak. Instead, Wei Dongqing took the initiative to greet him.

Xu Shimeng had the photographers who came with her set up their cameras, but she did not ask the photographers from Xinhua News Agency and People's Daily to do so.

Wei Dongqing stood in the designated spot with a friendly smile, ready to be interviewed.

Then, while Wei Dongqing waited with a smile, Xu Shimeng asked her first question:

"Secretary Wei, I heard that after you took office in Qinghe County, you were not optimistic about Qinghe County's economic transformation, and even convened a meeting of the Standing Committee of the County Party Committee to reject Qinghe's economic transformation plan?"

"???"

Wei Dongqing's smile froze on his face, and a hint of anger flashed between his brows!

Originally, he was puzzled as to why Xu Shimeng would kindly offer him a chance to show off, only to find out it was all to make things difficult for him!

This infuriated him, but he had already agreed to the interview, and in front of the camera, he could only swallow his anger and speak cautiously:

"I don't know where you heard this rumor, but I can assure you it's false. I have never opposed our county's economic transformation; I simply believe that economic transformation requires steady progress, establishing new systems before dismantling old ones!"

What role did you play in economic transformation and investment promotion?

Xu Shimeng spoke again, this time with an even more difficult question.

Wei Dongqing was almost spitting blood in anger, but he still forced himself to answer:

"As the county party secretary, I am responsible for the overall work of the county, including economic transformation and investment promotion. However, these two tasks are mainly handled by the county government staff, who have done a very good job. Today's investment promotion conference has been a great success!"

"You must be very fortunate to have so many capable subordinates around you?"

"Happiness..."

Wei Dongqing forced a smile and nodded, almost grinding his back teeth to powder!

You fucking do this to me and you still ask me if I'm happy?

this moment.

He felt like Lin Yi had slapped him so hard his face was swollen, and he still had to smile and say, "Sir, you did a good job!"

Xu Shimeng suppressed a smile: "Thank you, Secretary Wei, for taking the time out of your busy schedule to grant us this interview!"

"You're welcome."

Wei Dongqing smiled politely, then turned and left.

In the instant he turned around, his face was blacker than coal freshly mined from a coal mine!

So she was standing up for her boyfriend.

At the same time, Wu Fang and Pan Ling both saw through Xu Shimeng's intentions, greeted the two of them with smiles, and went out with the cameraman.

Lin Yi smiled wryly:

"Shimeng, let's not publicize Wei Dongqing's interview. There's no need to use such methods against him."

"Don't worry, I never intended to release his interview clips. I just didn't like him and wanted to annoy him a bit."

Xu Shimeng smiled mischievously first, then said in a sweet, coquettish voice:

"After all, my husband is so capable, dealing with little Wei Dongqing is a piece of cake for him, isn't it?"

"—"

Lin Yi was speechless, but at the same time, his heart was fluttering:

When Shimeng calls me "husband" in bed, I will be so happy!
