Chief Hao did not let Wang Xu and the others down.
He said solemnly, “We had a meeting yesterday to discuss it. We just went met our superior today. We need to apply for a subsidy for this project.
“Don’t worry. In the future, our project will become a benchmark project for our district government in the next year!” Chief Hao said, his eyes shining.
If Fang Ya had not informed him in advance, Lin Xiang would probably have believed Chief Hao’s words.
At that point, Lin Xiang could not help but sigh. Chief Hao’s acting was a little shoddy.
When Lin Xiang and Wang Xu did not react, Chief Hao was a little embarrassed.
He blinked rapidly and continued, “If the two of you have any other opinions, feel free to bring them up. We will do our best to cooperate!”
Wang Xu glanced at Lin Xiang and continued, “Since that’s the case, we should wait until all the details have been ironed out before we discuss it further.”
Chief Hao had not expected Wang Xu to remain unmoved by the subsidy. He immediately grew a little anxious. “Hey, Assistant Wang, it’s like this...
“Can you see if we can start this project first? The subsidy for the latter phase will definitely be in place!” Chief Hao said anxiously.
Nie Jun had given the order that they must discuss the cooperation in the next two days and implement the project as soon as possible.
However, a portion of the funds for this year’s project had already been used up by their “office”. There was no way to pay up right now!
Chief Hao and the others had never expected Nie Jun to be in such a hurry. They had no money to match up to the records!
The more Chief Hao thought about it, the more anxious he became. His tone carried a hint of pleading. “If you two have any other requests, feel free to make them! But can we arrange for things to start by next Monday?”
“Next Monday? Chief Hao, it’s already Wednesday!” Wang Xu could not help but remind him.
“I know, I know. It’s a little rushed.” Chief Hao’s face revealed a helpless and bitter smile.
“But... this matter... it...” Chief Hao was running out of words and started stammering.
Lin Xiang turned and winked at Wang Xu.
Wang Xu, however, pursed her lips and glared fiercely at Lin Xiang.
Lin Xiang immediately wilted and did not dare to distract her any further.
Chief Hao did not notice their small exchange and was still struggling to find a more effective way to speed up the launch of the project.
At that moment, Ye Xiao pushed open the door of the conference room and walked in.
Chief Hao was stunned when he saw Ye Xiao. He even froze on the spot.
Ye Xiao smiled at the three of them and said, “Secretary Nie would like to invite the two of you to the office to have a chat.”
Wang Xu and Lin Xiang stood up and nodded at Ye Xiao.
Wang Xu turned his head and smiled at Chief Hao. “Chief Hao, we’ll head in for a bit. We’ll talk when we get back!”
The two of them did not give Chief Hao another glance. They followed Ye Xiao out of the meeting room.
When the door to the meeting room closed, Chief Hao’s expression immediately turned ashen.
“I’m finished! I’m finished!”Chief Hao muttered.
Ye Xiao brought Wang Xu and Lin Xiang to Nie Jun’s office.
Fang Ya was also in Nie Jun’s office at the moment.
Fang Ya introduced Wang Xu and Lin Xiang to Nie jun.
Nie Jun let the two of them take a seat on the sofa at the side and asked Ye Xiao to prepare tea for the two of them.
Fang Ya looked at the two of them and asked, “How did it go?”
Wang Xu shrugged and said, “A weak opponent. Boring!”
Nie Jun heard Wang Xu’s words and raised his eyebrows. He looked at Fang Ya and asked, “Is she your disciple or something?”
Fang Ya shook her head and smiled. “It’s nothing like that, she’s a sister!”
“Good!” Nie Jun praised sincerely.
