He was not in a hurry to find out why Yan Huaili came. He chatted with Yan Huaili while eating.
Until you have eaten an appropriate amount and put down your bowl and chopsticks.
Zhang Weimin then spoke.
Xu Xu smiled and asked, "Tell me, what happened?"
"Old leader, if I say that Pei Wenzhong's grandson beat Ye Chen's precious daughter at South China International School the day before yesterday, and then today he bowed to Ye Chen's daughter in public at school to apologize, would you believe it? Do you think this is a bit weird?" Yan Huaili said.
"What?"
Zhang Weimin's old eyebrows suddenly trembled, "Pei Wenzhong's grandson bowed to Ye Chen's daughter in public to apologize and admit his mistake?"
Although this is something between little kids that is not worth mentioning at all.
But the particularity here made Zhang Weimin shocked.
Because, that was Pei Wenzhong's grandson.
Because Pei Wenzhong has not only always been labeled as an extremely protective person, but he is also extremely face-conscious!
So, with his status and position, could he let his grandson apologize to Ye Chen's daughter?
This, this is bullshit!
Even though Ye Chen is now a billionaire, perhaps his capital status as a billionaire is enough to make him a guest of honor for many provincial government leaders when they are attracting investment.
But for Pei Wenzhong, who has been doing business in Jiangzhou for many years and has been entangled in countless complicated relationships behind the scenes, he is not well-known.
Even if a nouveau riche who has only risen for less than a year has tens of billions of
He still doesn't take family wealth lightly.
It's not that those with billions of capital are not qualified to enter Pei Wenzhong's eyes. If it were those billionaires who have been rooted in the business world for a long time, Pei Wenzhong would definitely welcome them with a smile. But Ye Chen is just a nouveau riche in the eyes of most people. Just based on his identity as a nouveau riche, even if Ye Chen has billions of wealth, not to mention that Pei Wenzhong will not take him seriously for the time being, even if Ye Chen takes the initiative to make friends with Pei Wenzhong, he probably has to lower his posture and flatter and please him in order to get the other party's good face.
This is because in the eyes of the top leaders who hold great power, capitalists and nouveau riche are completely different things, and the way they are treated is naturally also completely different.
After all, in the eyes of many senior rulers, nouveau riche without any foundation can easily drown in the tide, so the higher the position, the less they will take the nouveau riche seriously, and the higher the position, the less they want to have too much relationship with the nouveau riche, so as not to get involved in the scandal.
But now, it was Pei Wenzhong, a powerful man in Lingnan, whose grandson bowed to Ye Chen's daughter in public to apologize. For Zhang Weimin, this was abnormal, extremely abnormal!
To Zhang Weimin's astonishment.
Yan Huaili nodded, "The key is that the incident with the two children happened the day before yesterday, not yesterday. The bowing and apology scene only happened today! This is a bit intriguing. In addition, I asked the senior management of South China International School, and they said that bowing and apologizing in public was Ye Chen's bottom line, a bottom line that he was completely unwilling to compromise. They were originally very troubled by this matter. After all, Pei Wenzhong's identity was there, and they had to give him some face. If they forced that little bastard to bow and apologize in public, it would be difficult for Pei Wenzhong to explain. In addition, South China International School also communicated with Pei Wenzhong's daughter-in-law, but the other party's attitude was extremely tough, saying that it was absolutely impossible for him to bow and apologize in public!'
"So, in this matter, South China International School had to consider Pei Wenzhong's face while being afraid that Ye Chen would make a big fuss and stir up public opinion. But they never expected that just when they were in a dilemma and were ready to ask you to intervene and do some ideological work on Ye Chen, Pei Wenzhong actually took the initiative to call the school and righteously expressed his attitude that it must be dealt with seriously, that the little girl must be given due justice, and that the other party's parents must be given a satisfactory explanation! Then, Pei Wenzhong's grandson bowed in public to Ye Chen's daughter in the school this morning to admit his mistake. So do you think this matter is extremely strange? After all, you are familiar with Pei Wenzhong. Judging from his behavior and personality, do you think this is like him?"
Facing Yan Huaili's words.
Zhang Weimin frowned tightly.
After thinking for a moment.
"The supervision team has not left Jiangzhou yet. Could it be that Pei Wenzhong is worried that Ye Chen will make a big fuss and stir up public opinion, thus causing unnecessary trouble for himself?"
"Old leader, I've thought about this, but I still think this possibility is a bit far-fetched. You know... it's just a conflict between two kindergarten kids. Ye Chen has never been popular in public opinion. If the matter between the kids is known to the world, even if he is right, he will suffer some backlash from public opinion. So he won't be so rash. Moreover, knowing him better, I don't think he will put these things in front of the public!"
Yan Huaili paused and continued, "I'm sure Pei Wenzhong can think of all these. The most important thing is that Pei Wenzhong didn't even try to negotiate. He could have asked South China International School to find a way to get Ye Chen to give in and solve the problem privately to save face, but he did none of that! It would be fine if he was the kind of righteous person who would not tolerate any injustice, but he is not. You, old leader, must be aware of this!
"Do you think there is something fishy here? And it's a big fishy thing? And the fishy thing is caused by that kid Ye Chen?" Zhang Weimin said.
"Old leader, I can't help but doubt it. He knew that the other party was Pei Wenzhong's grandson, but he still refused to give in to his demands. Even when Wen Wenqing, the vice president of South China International, called him and tried to persuade him, he still refused to listen. As a businessman, he is either ignorant and stupid, or he is fearless. Combined with the previous lawsuit between this kid and Tencent, I feel more and more that he is unfathomable. He is definitely not as simple as he seems, absolutely not!" Yan Huaili said.
This time.
Zhang Weimin fell silent.
After a moment.
"So do you think he has someone backing him up, so he doesn't have to be afraid of Pei Wenzhong, the boss of the Inspection Office, or does he have a hold on Pei Wenzhong's lifeblood, forcing him to surrender?
"Maybe it's the former, maybe the latter, or maybe both! But I don't want him to have a grasp of Pei Wenzhong's lifeblood. Apart from the fact that this is definitely not a good thing for him, it also makes me think he is terrifying, terrifying to the point of being outrageous. Just think about it... he can even grasp the lifeblood of the head of the Inspection Department, how terrifying must he be?" Yan Huaili said.
Hearing this.
Zhang Weimin suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked a sharp question, "What if he really has some leverage over Pei Wenzhong?
Yan Huaili was stunned.
But when he met the wise eyes of the old leader, he shook his head helplessly, "Then I have to talk to him and see how abnormal he is. Old leader... do you think I should give him a try?
After Yan Huaili said this.
Zhang Weimin revealed an extremely intriguing smile.
He skipped Yan Huaili's question and changed the subject abruptly, "Huai Li, the supervision team has stayed in Jiangzhou for so long, I'm afraid it has always been Xiang Zhuang's sword dance, right?
"Huh? What do you mean?" Yan Huaili was suddenly stunned.
"The supervisory team has been wielding swords for so long, I'm afraid they are targeting Pei Wenzhong and the big tiger behind Pei Wenzhong, right?"
Staring into Yan Huaili's eyes, Zhang Weimin chuckled leisurely.
