Chapter 2783 Mysterious Place
"I have already spoken to the publicity department, and no one is allowed to report on the Lixin Hotel incident."
"Let's leave it at that. Don't escalate things any further. Remember, too many things have happened in Shazhou these past few months. It needs stability." Jiang Longjun said before hanging up the phone.
After finishing the call, Qin Feng silently put down the phone, sat at his desk, and quietly smoked a cigarette for a long time without saying a word.
Qin Feng was furious, but he simply hung up the phone and smoked silently.
If it were a few years ago, Qin Feng would definitely fight Jiang Longjun to the bitter end today; this matter would never have ended like this.
But Qin Feng chose to remain silent and hung up the phone without saying a word.
Qin Feng chose to remain silent because he couldn't afford to sever his relationship with Jiang Longjun. He needed Jiang Longjun's support and couldn't push him to the opposite side.
At the same time, Qin Feng also knew that he was no match for Jiang Longjun.
If Jiang Longjun forbids this matter from being reported, then no one in Shazhou will dare to report it. Even if Qin Feng personally calls to request it, in the end they will only listen to Jiang Longjun. At least in the propaganda field, Qin Feng's influence is far less than Jiang Longjun's.
In fact, Jiang Longjun's position in the entire sandbar is one that Qin Feng cannot shake.
If you are weaker than your opponent, you have to learn to play the submissive role and swallow your pride even if you lose a tooth.
Qin Feng knew that Jiang Longjun did this on purpose. He wasn't standing up for Lixin Group; he simply wanted to put Qin Feng in his place and use the fact that the matter wasn't allowed to be reported to show Qin Feng who was the real boss in Shazhou and to let Qin Feng see how big the difference in their power was in Shazhou.
Qin Feng understood that the reason Jiang Longjun was making such a fuss about this matter was because Jiang Longjun felt that Qin Feng was trying to break free from his control after his return, so he pulled this stunt.
Qin Feng let out a long sigh of relief and silently picked up his phone to dial Jiang Yunpeng's number.
"Cancel all the publicity. Let's put this matter behind us." Qin Feng said this and then hung up the phone.
That day, Qin Feng called Sun Yuanwei and Chen Guohua to his office again to learn about the current situation of the two tasks. After getting a clear understanding of the situation, Qin Feng took Zhang Xinming and others and set off for Beijing the next day with minimal entourage.
Qin Feng had been in Shazhou for half a year, and he knew that his trip to Beijing was to report to Vice Minister Hong on his work over the past six months.
Not only did Qin Feng come to give a work report, but Zhao Hongjian was also in Beijing this time.
Qin Feng's plane landed in Beijing that afternoon. Vice Minister Hong arranged for people and a car to pick him up at the airport and had also arranged accommodation for him in advance.
Qin Feng did not notify anyone this time, nor did he report his itinerary to his unit. He only brought Zhang Xinming with him to Beijing, so no arrangements were made here. Vice Minister Hong had carefully arranged everything for Qin Feng, which was something Qin Feng had not expected.
Qin Feng was taken to the hotel by staff. He asked when he would see Minister Hong, but the staff replied that he would have to wait for notification and told him to rest first. They said they would let him know as soon as they had any information.
Qin Feng found this arrangement a bit strange, but this was Beijing, and these high-ranking leaders were all very busy, so this arrangement wasn't unusual.
However, since he had to wait for notification at any time, Qin Feng didn't dare to leave the hotel rashly, so he simply slept in the hotel.
Qin Feng slept until evening. After having dinner with Zhang Xinming near the hotel, they returned to the hotel. Zhang Xinming then knocked on the door and told Qin Feng that he had received a notification from the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China that a car would be coming to pick him up. He told Qin Feng to be prepared, and that the car would arrive downstairs in half an hour.
Qin Feng hadn't expected to be assigned to report on his work so late at night. He had already taken a shower and gone to bed, so he quickly got dressed again and took Zhang Xinming downstairs to wait for him.
Not long after, a car stopped in front of the hotel. However, this time, the person who came to pick up Qin Feng was not the staff member from the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China from that morning, but the secretary of Vice Minister Hong.
Qin Feng forgot the exact name of Vice Minister Hong's secretary, only knowing that her surname was Luo, so he always addressed her as Director Luo.
Qin Feng had only met Director Luo twice, and in fact, he had only met Vice Minister Hong twice as well.
Director Luo invited Qin Feng to get in the car, but when Zhang Xinming was about to get in as well, Director Luo stopped him: "Mayor Qin, the place we're going tonight is a bit special, so only you can go alone."
After Director Luo finished speaking, Qin Feng and Zhang Xinming were both taken aback. Qin Feng was filled with a thousand questions. He was just going to report to Vice Minister Hong. What was so special about that?
However, Qin Feng could only follow Director Luo's instructions. Zhang Xinming was just waiting outside and wouldn't be of any use anyway.
"Go back and rest, give me the bag," Qin Feng said to Zhang Xinming.
Zhang Xinming quickly handed the briefcase to Qin Feng.
"Mayor Qin, is there anything in your bag that's essential for tonight's work?" Director Luo asked.
Qin Feng was stunned for a moment, because he didn't know what Director Luo meant by asking that question.
"If you don't absolutely need to bring this bag, I suggest you don't, because it will be checked later and cause trouble," Director Luo advised.
Qin Feng was filled with doubts, but he could only do as he was told and hand the bag to Zhang Xinming.
Qin Feng got into the car alone, and Director Luo told the driver to drive off.
After driving for a while, Qin Feng sensed something was wrong. Although he wasn't very familiar with Beijing, he knew roughly where the Organization Department of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was located, and the car was clearly not heading in that direction.
"Director Luo, where are we going?" Qin Feng asked.
The direction wasn't the Organization Department of the Central Committee, and Director Luo had said that the place was very special, and ordinary people couldn't get in, nor could they bring bags, which made Qin Feng very puzzled.
"Mayor Qin, I can't say exactly where it is. You can see for yourself later, but you can only see it. You can't say a word about anything that happens after you go in tonight," Director Luo said with a smile.
Qin Feng frowned; he was somewhat confused about what was going on.
"Are you going to see Vice Minister Hong?" Qin Feng asked again.
“Vice Minister Hong is inside,” Director Luo nodded.
Now that things had come to this point, Qin Feng naturally couldn't ask any more questions, but he kept wondering where Director Luo was going to take him.
As the car drove through the city, Qin Feng, unfamiliar with Beijing, had no idea which direction it was heading or where it was.
The car drove for nearly half an hour before stopping at a gate that looked unremarkable from the outside but was heavily guarded at the entrance.
