Chapter 13: Appointment with the Chief Executive

Meng Xue's "Falling Flowers" made everyone feel a little sentimental when they heard it. Her song felt the connotation of Chen Feng and Hongye even more deeply, obviously using falling flowers as a metaphor. As the so-called "falling flowers are intentional, flowing water is ruthless", Chen Feng is even a hard-hearted man, after listening to this self-metaphorical song, his heart is also a little moved, but he can't accept another relationship in his heart.

After Zhao Xiaolan clapped her hands, she said bluntly: "Mengxue, your song is very good, but it sounds too sad and makes people feel uncomfortable." ”

"Yes, Mengxue, your previous songs were not like this, such a sad song, you should write less in the future. Cai Shuqing echoed the construction of the road.

Meng Xue nodded with a slight smile and did not speak.

Mengxue's two tragic songs in a row made everyone have no urge to continue listening, and no one continued to let the two perform, several adults began to chat together, and Chen Feng was asked by Wang Meixue to go around with Mengxue, Hongye, and Dinah, gossiping very much about Mengxue, and Mengxue was also very cooperative to satisfy her curiosity one by one, and the two soon became old friends who seemed to have known each other for many years, and they talked happily. And Dinah was also very curious to ask Chen Feng, asking him or rather asking Long some more childish questions, such as his hobbies, personality, what he likes to eat, what he doesn't like to eat, what he hates the most, etc., Chen Feng can barely cope with it at first, but after more than ten minutes of fatigue bombardment, he had to borrow urine to escape, sneaked away to the back garden alone, and then took out his mobile phone and called Mai Xiangdong and asked him to come and pick him up at five o'clock an hour in advance.

During this period, the maid served some Western-style pastries and tea and fruit snacks, and everyone chatted while eating, but they also enjoyed it. Time passed quickly and imperceptibly.

At five o'clock, Mai Xiangdong sat on time with his Cadillac to pick up people, and these people present, except for Meng Xue, were all people that Chen Feng could trust, and Chen Feng told the truth that he was going to the chief executive's appointment and have dinner together. Because Chen Feng did not notify before, this surprised everyone.

"Stinky boy, such an important matter, why don't you tell your dad early?" Chen Dayong said with some complaint, and then continued, "Dad, go with you." ”

Chen Feng said with some embarrassment: "Dad, this time, the chief executive only invited me alone, or I should go alone, next time, after we settle in Hong Kong, the whole family will officially go to the door to thank you." ”

Chen Dayong was stunned for a moment, and then forced a smile: "Oh, that's it, forget it like this, next time." ”

Chen Feng secretly stuck out his tongue at his father, in fact, it was nothing to bring his father over.

After Chen Feng and everyone said goodbye, he took Huang Yong and Zhang Qiangguo with him, and then went out to take the car with Mai Xiangdong, because Mai Xiangdong had already made an appointment to meet the chief executive at the Government House at seven o'clock, and it was not easy to change the appointment time temporarily, so the two asked the driver to walk around the street casually, so that Chen Feng had a good taste of the bustling market in Hong Kong.

Government House is located on Albert Road, Mid-Central, Hong Kong Island, formerly known as the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion during the British period of Hong Kong, it belongs to the British Georgian architecture, with a strong colonial style. It is a place for the Hong Kong SAR Government to receive guests, and some important ceremonies of the HKSAR Government are also held here. The chief executive made an appointment to meet Chen Feng here, apparently treating him as a very important guest.

After being inspected, the Cadillac slowly drove into the driveway of the Government House, and under the guidance of Mai Xiangdong, Chen Feng was led into the meeting room of the Government House.

When Chen Feng and the two entered, except for a few security guards standing at the door, the chief executive himself was not there, but soon a secretary came over when he heard the news, apologized to the two very politely, said that the chief executive was talking to an important person, asked them to wait, and personally poured a cup of tea for both of them.

After waiting for more than ten minutes, Mai Xiangdong was fine, but Chen Feng became a little impatient, thinking that the other party didn't mean it, right? What kind of stinky shelf? But I don't think it will be, how can I say that he is also a very influential person in the world now, and as long as the chief executive has the brains, he will not deliberately treat him so coldly.

After more than ten minutes, he still didn't see the chief executive, Chen Feng was really a little angry this time, and Mai Xiangdong also unconsciously raised his wrist and looked at his watch, seeing Chen Feng's impatient look, he hurriedly said: "Wait, the chief executive is a very punctual person, there must be an emergency happening temporarily, so he will be late." ”

Although Chen Feng was a little angry in his heart, who called himself a request this time, he could only continue to wait, and Chen Feng didn't believe that the chief executive would release their pigeons.

As he was talking, he saw a group of people walking in outside the living room, led by Tong Jianhua, the chief executive of Hong Kong, whom Chen Feng had only seen on TV before.

As soon as he came in and saw the two people sitting in the hall, he smiled apologetically, stretched out his hands, and apologized to the two: "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I had already arrived, but suddenly I had a very important official business to deal with, and I was delayed, causing the two of you to wait for a long time." ”

As the chief executive of Hong Kong, he can still take the initiative to apologize to others with such a refined attitude, and this attitude shows his own moral cultivation. Chen Feng couldn't help nodding secretly.

"The Chief Executive is polite, polite. Mai Xiangdong stood up, stepped forward politely, and shook hands with Tong Jianhua.

Tong Jianhua quickly looked Chen Feng, who was standing up, and said with great satisfaction: "Xiangdong, this must be the world's famous long, it is really a dignified appearance, a young talent!"

Chen Feng didn't pretend to be a big name, he politely stepped forward and took the initiative to shake Tong Jianhua's hand, pretending to be modest and said: "The chief executive praised me falsely, I'm just a singer, not a talent." I am very happy to meet the Chief Executive this time. ”

Tong Jianhua shook his head with a smile and said: "Long, you are too modest, how many people in the world can sing and sing so well at your age? If you are not a talent, there will be no talent in this world." ”

Chen Feng smiled and didn't speak.

"Two, please sit down!" Tong Jianhua asked the two of them to sit down again.

"Long, if I hadn't seen your profile that Xiang Dong transferred to me before, I really couldn't believe it, you are Long? Tong Jianhua smiled very heartily.

"Thank you!" Chen Feng politely thanked him, "The chief executive can call me by my name, Chen Feng, or Xiao Feng can too." ”

"Hehe, okay, then I'll rely on the old and sell the old, and I'll call you Xiaofeng in the future. Tong Jianhua looked very happy, "To be honest, long, oh, Xiaofeng, you are also raising your ambition for us Chinese." I don't think there is a single one in China who is not proud of you. Now there are many media in the outside world, but you have been defined as the 'world singer'. And it's only been less than a year since your debut. ”

"I don't dare to be the world singer now. Chen Feng smiled, "As you said, I haven't been here for a year since I debuted in the United States, and besides, you can see, I'm too young." I didn't expect to achieve what I am today. ”

"Very good, Xiao Feng, people who have achieved such fame at a young age like you often can't control themselves, appear arrogant and arrogant, and have no one in their eyes, 'young and frivolous' is what it means, and there are very few people who can be as calm and steady as you now. Tong Jianhua said with admiration on his face.

Chen Feng was praised by the Hong Kong chief executive in front of him, although he was a little proud, but he knew that he was not here to be praised this time. Fortunately, Mai Xiangdong is also more discerning, and he smiled and put the topic on the right track: "Chen Feng became famous as a young man, and now he is going to join us as a Hong Kong citizen, and from then on, he can be said to be the representative and model of our young generation in Hong Kong." ”

Tong Jianhua nodded and said: "That's right, Xiao Feng's LONG fund launched in the United States this time is very creative and operable, and listening to the media, now the LONG fund has raised more than 200 million US dollars, and has rescued a large number of fans." This is a very broad significance, and I think all of us artists in Hong Kong should learn from you. Xiao Feng, do you think you can set up a branch of the Dragon Fund in Hong Kong?"

Seeing Tong Jianhua's expectant face, how could Chen Feng not agree, not to mention that Chen Feng had such a plan, so he nodded very happily at the moment: "Well, my future plan is to gradually expand my Dragon Fund to the world, and I am going to be a Hong Kong person, so I naturally want to set up a branch of the Long Fund in Hong Kong." However, I'll get my agent to start working on this in a few days. ”

"Very good!long, Xiao Feng, on behalf of the people of Hong Kong, I thank you and warmly welcome you to our family. Tong Jianhua stood up very excitedly and held Chen Feng's hand tightly with both hands again.

"This is what I should do, and I am also honored to be a Hong Kong citizen and thank you on behalf of my fiancΓ©e's two families. Chen Feng said with a sincere expression.

Tong Jianhua waved his hand and said, "This is my part, and it is also what I should do." ”

At this time, the entourage around him came over and whispered to him for a while, Tong Jianhua's face immediately became a little difficult to look at, but he immediately disappeared. Chen Feng's ear is very good now, and although this entourage said it very lightly, because Chen Feng and Tong Jianhua were standing close to each other, they still heard that thousands of citizens were holding a demonstration and protest at the Central Government Headquarters, accusing him of his policy and cursing him for his incompetence in governance. Chen Feng thought to himself, these Hong Kong people are really free, and they all come to protest at night. Tong Jianhua himself was in a bad mood when he heard the news. In the past few years since he took office, public opinion has been declining, and he himself has done bad things with good intentions, messed up several things, and made the citizens of Hong Kong more and more unhappy, and of course they will stand up and protest if they are unhappy, and because of Hong Kong's free political environment, scolding the chief executive for being incompetent in power, and letting him take the blame and resign is not a crime, but a kind of "natural human right", and even more vicious insults against him, the government and the chief executive himself cannot convict these citizens of any crime. If this kind of thing happened in the mainland, it would be unthinkable, and you would have to be detained for at least three months, plus you would be charged with "defaming the government" or "defaming the leadership," and it would be possible for five or six years of re-education through labor.

After listening to the assistant's whisper, Tong Jianhua waved his hand at him, continued to cheer up, and said with a smile to Mai Xiangdong and Chen Feng: "You two, if you don't mind, do you want to have dinner with me now." ”

"Of course I don't mind, it's a pleasure. Mai Xiangdong said with a smile.

Chen Feng also nodded: "It's a great honor." ”

So, under the leadership of the staff, the two of them came to a restaurant, where a table of Western-style meals had been arranged, although it was not very rich, but it was okay.

At the dinner table, Tong Jianhua was well-informed and chatted with the two about some interesting things when he was young, which made Chen Feng feel much more cordial to him.

Almost halfway through the meal, Chen Feng said: "Special first student, you should also know that the outside world is now spreading the true identity of Long, I plan to hold a press conference at the Four Seasons Hotel tomorrow to officially clarify my true identity, so I very much hope that Special First Student can say hello to the Hong Kong Police Headquarters, and then can send capable forces to maintain the normal order of the on-site press conference." ”

"Do you want to disclose your identity as Chen Feng?" asked Tong Jianhua with some surprise.

Chen Feng nodded.

Tong Jianhua pondered for a while, and nodded approvingly: "Well, I also know that now your true identity is already in the office, and I happened to read the post that was circulated on the Internet at the beginning. It's okay to make it public. ”

Chen Feng then smiled and said: "Actually, when I said this, I still have a reluctant request, I hope that the first student can agree." ”

Tong Jianhua was slightly stunned, and then looked very interested, and said, "Tell me, if you can, I think I will agree to you." ”

"Well, thanks, that's right. Chen Feng said seriously, "I hope you can take time out of your busy schedule to attend my press conference tomorrow, and if you can, I want to announce to the world tomorrow that I am officially a Hong Kong citizen." ”

"Ah!" Tong Jianhua and Mai Xiangdong were both stunned, and Chen Feng's invitation obviously surprised the two.

"Xiao Feng, this invitation of yours, to be honest, really surprised me. I am personally very pleased to accept this invitation from you. Tong Jianhua said with excitement on his face. Of course, he knew that Chen Feng's "reluctant invitation" In the past few years since he took office, he has been inappropriately administering and public opinion has declined, and the Hong Kong people are also not heart-shaped enough for the SAR government, and officials at all levels of the SAR government are very demoralized。

"Thank you very much. With you, the chief executive of Hong Kong, on my side, I am relieved. Chen Feng complimented.

"Xiao Feng, I should be thanked. Your heart, I understand, I toast you with a glass of champagne, you are not yet an adult, drink champagne. At the beginning, there was no wine on the table, obviously Tong Jianhua took into account Chen Feng's underage and did not prepare. Tong Jianhua motioned to the waiter to bring a bottle of champagne, and after opening it, he personally poured a full glass for Chen Feng, and even took Mai Xiangdong to dip it and let him fill a glass.

The three of them raised a glass together, and Tong Jianhua toasted Chen Feng and said: "This cup is to you, and you are welcome to join our Hong Kong family again." ”

The three of them clinked glasses together, Tong Jianhua drank it all, and Mai Xiangdong and Chen Feng had no choice but to toast when they saw this.

After drinking a glass of champagne in one go, Tong Jianhua exhaled very comfortably and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I've drunk champagne like this, come, this time everyone is free to order and drink slowly." Tong Jianhua was very kind enough to fill the empty cups of the two, "Come, let's continue to eat." This plate of fried asparagus is very fresh, and the chef's craftsmanship is also top-notch. ”

Next, the three of them chatted while eating, very happy, if it weren't for Tong Jianhua's entourage coming over several times to remind them, the three of them would have to keep chatting.

Until, at about ten o'clock in the evening, after the staff reminded again, Mai Xiangdong and Chen Feng also got up again to say goodbye, this time Tong Jianhua finally didn't stop, and sent the two all the way to the gate of the Government Mansion, said goodbye to the two of them, and also exchanged their private mobile phone numbers with Chen Feng.

After coming out of the Government House, although Mai Xiangdong didn't say anything, his face was full of brilliance that he couldn't hide, and he was even more impressed by Chen Feng, a genius young man, in his heart. As one of the most famous barristers in Hong Kong, he and Tong Jianhua have known each other before, and they have known each other for a long time, but he has never received such courtesy from Tong Jianhua as he did to Chen Feng today. He also knew that the identity of the long played a great role, but Chen Feng's "reluctant invitation" played the role of the finishing touch, so that Tong Jianhua, the chief executive of Hong Kong, owed Chen Feng a big favor in vain, so after that, Tong Jianhua would talk to the two of him so happily, and the chat was more than three hours. He had to sigh in his heart that Chen Feng, a genius with a good brain, was so easy to make friends with Tong Jianhua.
