Chapter 1369: Reporter Interviews
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“Um…”
Lin Yi had seen Liang Ruoxu’s three missed calls, but he had been busy and forgot to reply to her when he was free.
“The people from the hospital came this morning. I’ve been busy with this,” Lin Yi said.
“Now that I’m free, I was just about to call you back when you called. Do you think this counts as telepathy?”
“Tsk, I knew you could find an excuse to make things right,” Liang Ruoxu said.
Lin Yi chuckled. “Is there something you need from me?”
“Can’t I call you without a reason?”
“There are dozens of girls waiting for me to accompany them. Where can I find the time to entertain you?”
“I’ll strangle you to death!” Liang Ruoxu said.
“The central reporters may come to your place for an interview these days. Prepare well.”
“Huh? Central reporters? Which station?”
“Central Daily, in the financial section,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“Didn’t my mother also get involved in your chip industry park? In addition, the leaders of the central government think highly of you, so they sent the reporters over. This can be considered a form of publicity.”
“In other words, this interview was given to me by the higher-ups, right?”
“From what my mother said, that seems to be the case,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“Whether it’s the photolithography machine or the information you brought back from the Mitsui family, you have greatly influenced Huaxia’s technology and industrial system. Consider it a reward for you.”
“Then I might as well send a beautiful reporter to give me some spiritual comfort. After all, I’m a man who lacks love. I have needs.”
“I really want to slap you to death,” Liang Ruoxu said. “You’d better not cause any trouble. When the time comes, receive them well.”
“What 1 dislike the most is dealing with these reporters. They always stir up trouble.”
“Policies aren’t as easily granted as you might think,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“If we grant it to you, what about other enterprises? What about other cities? Some matters need to be balanced. Moreover, quite a few semiconductor companies have raised concerns about Lingyun Group’s monopoly, but the higher-ups have managed to suppress them. Be content with what you have.”
“Alright, i’ll reluctantly cooperate.”
“Although it’s another interview, it’s different this time. You have to be more serious,” Liang Ruoxu said.
“They’re the official state media. If they publish this report, it would be equivalent to a nod from the national level. In other words, this interview is not for ordinary people, but for entrepreneurs. If the higher-ups express their stance, they will follow suit.”
“I understand what you’re saying, but I still don’t have a good impression of them.”
“You have to receive them even if you don’t have a good impression of them. This is extremely beneficial to Lingyun Group. You can’t be careless.”
“Got it, got it.”
“Also, settle the matters in Dongsan County quickly. Come back early. You know what to do.”
“I will return on your safe day.”
“Piss off!”
Liang Ruoxu hung up, not giving Lin Yi a chance to tease her anymore.
In the next few days, Lin Yi’s work was relatively easy. He went to the county hospital every day to check in and dialogue with Miao Guofeng and the others. At night, he slept with Li Chuhan and lived quite happily.
On the other hand, Li Qingkai and Li Shijin had been busy with the matters in the village below. Things were not easy.
As for the people Zhou Feng had found, they were in an awkward position. They were seemingly stuck in limbo.
But in the end, he still braced himself and stayed.
This was because the people Lin Yi found were all big shots in the medical world. Out of consideration for his future, they stayed behind as they could still learn a lot.
“Director Lin, Secretary Wang wants to see you.”
At the door of the office, Wang Yunjiang’s secretary said to him.
“I’m coming over now.”
After packing up, Lin Yi went to Wang Yunjiang’s office.
“Secretary Wang, you were looking for me.”
“I’ve wanted to talk to you for a long time. I just had some free time today.” Wang Yunjiang smiled and said,
“You did a great job with this medical visit. When I went to the city for a meeting, the relevant leaders even praised our county’s progress in poverty alleviation. This is all thanks to you.”
“I was just doing my job.” Lin Yi chuckled.
“I knew you would say that.” Wang Yunjiang also smiled. The more he looked at Lin Yi, the more he understood his temperament.
“I called you here today mainly because 1 have something to tell you.”
Lin Yi did not say anything and waited for Wang Yunjiang to continue.
“Firstly, when I went to the city for a meeting, the leaders of the relevant departments personally came to talk to me. I didn’t dare to be greedy and reported everything you did in detail. Therefore, the higher-ups have the intention to transfer you to the city, but the specific position hasn’t been decided yet. If you have any preferences, I can help you pull some strings in the middle. If you express your gratitude appropriately, this matter will be considered a success.”
“Uh…” Lin Yi paused. “I don’t have any intention of leaving yet. 1 still want to stay in the county.”
“Do you feel that you have more freedom in the county?”
Tm here with a cheat. I can’t leave even if I wanted to!’
“I don’t have any ambitions. I just want to serve the people.”
“Stop, stop, stop. I’m already in my fifties. Don’t act like that with me,” Wang Yunjiang said.
“There’s no hurry. Go back and think about it slowly. You’re so young. You must seize such a good opportunity.”
“Thank you, Leader,” Lin Yi said, “What’s the second thing?”
“The second thing is that the reporter from the Central Daily wants to come over for an interview to understand the poverty alleviation work in our Dongsan County and our investment situation.” Wang Yunjiang said,
“You’re the one who handled all these things. Moreover, you’re both young people. There’s no generation gap when you interact with each other, so you” be the one who has to receive them.”
“Got it. I promise to complete the mission.”
Although he had long known about this from Liang Ruoxu, Lin Yi still acted normal, lest Wang Yunjiang think too much about it.
“Alright, it was just these two things,” Wang Yunjiang said.
“Pay close attention to the transfer to Yuhang. This is very likely to be a turning point in your life. Don’t make a decision so quickly. Think about it carefully.” “Understood.”
“Don’t be in a hurry to leave.” Wang Yunjiang took out a box of tea leaves from under his desk. “Take it back and drink it. The packaging is quite good. It’s going to be the first of October soon. If you don’t like tea, take it and give it away as a gift.”
“Haha, thank you, Leader.”
After leaving Wang Yunjiang’s office, Lin Yi drove to First Middle School in Dongsan County.
“Who are you? This is a school. You can’t go in,” the guard said.
“I’m Lin Yi, the director of our county’s Office of Poverty Alleviation. I want to go in and take a look around.”
“What county?”
“Dongsan County?”
“What’s your name?”
“Lin Yi.”
“Lin what?”
“Lin Yi!”
“Yi what?”
“Sir, I’m with the government.”
“Go on in..”
