Chapter 104: The Situation is Grim
Feng Baobao looked at Xiao Qiang's cold eyes, her expression somewhat tense, and the hand holding the autograph book was shaking slightly. She stuttered to Liu Fei: "Se...senior, I...I'm a freshman who just entered Beida this year, I've long heard of your great name F4, I'd like to ask each of you students to sign an autograph!" After finishing speaking, she plucked up the courage and raised the thick stack of autograph books in her hand, slowly walking towards the wine table.
Liu Fei was taken aback and asked: "F4? Is it F4 from Meteor Garden?"
Liu Pang burst out laughing and patted Liu Fei's shoulder, saying: "Come on, boss, you actually don't know that we four are known as the crazy quartet who makes everyone love us wherever we go, the most handsome and famous F4 in Peking University history!"
Liu Fei's gaze turned to Xu Zhe, Xu Zhe nodded, and then turned to Xiao Qiang, Xiao Qiang smiled and nodded.
Feng Baobao walked up to Liu Fei, looking like a cute little elf, and said in a soft voice: "Liu Fei senior, can you sign an autograph for me first? I'm your biggest fan!" After speaking, Feng Baobao's delicate face turned red, matching her bright red hair, and she looked quite lovely. It was hard to believe that this was the same person who had been so arrogant and domineering outside the hotel entrance not long ago.
Liu Fei looked at the petite and lovely junior sister in front of him, couldn't help but touch his nose, and dryly said: "Am I that famous?"
Feng Baobao immediately raised his head, his eyes shining brightly as he gazed steadily at Liu Fei and said: "Of course you're famous now, you've already been called the most famous student union president in our Peking University's history, the dream lover of all the girls!"
Liu Pang immediately used his big and fat hand to pat his broad chest and asked, "Sister, what about me Liu Pang?"
Feng Baobao immediately stuck out her tongue at Liu Pang and said with embarrassment: "You were rated by the girls as the most lustful fat man in the history of Beida!"
Feng Baobao finished speaking, and Liu Dong sat down on the seat with a plop, looking depressed. He said with a sad face: "How can the gap be so big?!" However, he quickly reacted and pointed to Xu Zhe and Xiao Qiang with a sly smile, saying: "What about those two?"
Xu Zhe and Xiao Qiang were also very curious about what their junior brothers and sisters would call them after they left school, and they all looked at Feng Bao.
Feng Baobao pointed at Xiao Qiang who was wearing glasses and said: "Xiao Qiang senior has been evaluated as the coolest glasses man in history!"
Xiao Qiang's face lit up with a smile as soon as he finished listening, and he punched his fist in the air towards Liu Zhuang.
"What about me?" Xu Zhe's evaluation of himself was full of anticipation. It seems that apart from Liu Zhu, the other three people's evaluations were all very high!
Feng Baobao saw Xue Zhe and involuntarily took two steps to the side, as if she was a little afraid of him. When she reached Liu Fei's side, she stopped and said: "Xue Zhe, the senior, has been rated as the most charming playboy in Peking University's history, a killer of girls, and is an object that every girl must be on guard against."
"Haha! Xu Zhe, you're so cool!" Liu Pang was the first to laugh.
Liu Fei and Xiao Qiang also laughed along with them.
Feng Baobao saw that the three of them seemed to be in a good mood, so she handed over her autograph book and pen to Liu Fei and said: "Senior, can you please sign an autograph for me and my sisters? Although they are not from Beida, they are all students from different schools."
Liu Fei took over Feng Baobao's book and picked up the pen to sign one for her. The other books were distributed among Liu Zong and the others, who were all in high spirits and feeling carefree, so they readily took the pens and signed their names on several of the books.
After several people returned their paper and pens, Feng Baobao handed those books to Liu Fei's face again, blushing and saying: "Liu Fei senior, the sisters said that I must get your autograph, or they will talk about it when they go back."
Liu Peng couldn't help but feel a wave of depression, patted his forehead and said: "How can the gap be so big!"
Xu Zhe and Xiao Qiang also nodded in agreement: "Same here!"
Liu Fei rubbed his nose and had to sign again one by one in the autograph book, thus the conflict that occurred at the hotel entrance was reduced to nothing! After all, when facing a primary school sister, no one would really care too much.
Feng Baobao took the autograph book signed by Liu Fei and smiled brightly as she thanked and bid farewell to the four people, then left the private room.
The interrupted banquet resumes.
This time it was Xu Zhe's turn. He raised his wine glass and said, "Boss, I really didn't expect that the three of us following you would also make a name for ourselves, at least we've become legends at Beida, just for this, I'll toast to you!" After finishing speaking, he downed the cup in one gulp.
Liu Fei was overjoyed and raised his wine cup to drink it all in one gulp!
Then the three of them ordered two bundles of liquor and drank until they were all gone!
Just as Liu Fei and the brothers were clinking glasses, in a private room at the Yanjing Restaurant, Jiang Zhengyuan, Vice Governor of Hebei Province, and Bao Chunlai, Deputy Director of the Beijing Academy of Social Sciences, also sat together.
The table was filled with all kinds of delicious dishes, and the wine was a twenty-year-old vintage Maotai.
The two people chatted for a while about family matters before getting down to business.
Bao Chunlai and Jiang Zhengyuan were university classmates, after graduation they both stayed in school to teach, only later the two people one became deputy director of the Academy of Social Sciences, one became vice governor of Hebei Province, but the relationship between the two has always been very good.
Bao Chunlai also knew that Jiang Zhengyuan was now working hard to get the position of Hebei Provincial Governor. Being in Yanjing City, a key location in the capital, he naturally had more access to information and became Jiang Zhengyuan's eyes and ears in Yanjing City. After drinking a cup of wine, Bao Chunlai put down his glass and frowned, saying: "Old Jiang, your situation doesn't look too good this time?"
Jiang Zhengyuan also furrowed his brow, and his expression immediately became much more serious. He could see that the situation was probably even more severe than what Bao Chun had said.
"Lao Bao, tell me, what's the situation like now?"
Bao Chunlai said: "From the information I currently have, within Hebei Province, you and Ma Ao are the two strong contenders for the position of Governor. Ma Ao is good at economics, while you excel in management and planning. If we look at comprehensive strength, you two are evenly matched. However, if we consider who is more suitable for the position of Governor, then Ma Ao is slightly more fitting. This is the view of some people within the Central Organization Department, especially Deputy Minister Zhong Zhen Dong, who is a staunch supporter of Ma Ao. Although Minister Miao has not expressed his opinion yet, your situation looks very grim. It's said that Executive Deputy Minister Jia Zhong Qi seems to be planning to parachute in a Governor from the Central Government. This cannot be ignored."
Jiang Zhengyuan's expression became even more solemn, and he didn't even notice that the cigarette butt was about to burn his hand until a scorching sensation spread from his hand. He then threw the cigarette butt into the ashtray and picked up his teacup to take a sip of tea.
The tea had cooled down a bit. He didn't seem to mind, but between his eyebrows, there seemed to be a faint hint of melancholy.
To reach this position, every step forward requires great effort, the strength of competitors is terrifying, and the background is deep, so every step forward requires a thousand times more hard work, and a lot of planning is needed. The official position will not fall on your head without reason, how many eyes are staring at this position! It may also involve a higher level of competition.
