He won 900 million in the lottery.

Above him is Cao Cheng, the Party Secretary of the Municipal Committee.

Sun Jun, director of the Municipal Development and Reform Commission, was among them.

Below him are various trading companies established by Wen Yu.

Getting to know your superiors won't make you money or make your money grow. Getting to know your superiors only helps them monetize their power, and you, in turn, get a small share of the profits.

For example, Black Sea City.

A prefecture-level city, including civil engineering, water and electricity, fire protection, elevators, doors and windows, exterior walls, and public decoration. Also includes landscaping, roads, water supply, power supply, gas supply, heating, pipelines, pump rooms, and power distribution rooms.

Housing construction projects accounted for approximately RMB 105.12 billion in annual transactions, representing 45.9% of the total output value.

Municipal infrastructure projects accounted for approximately RMB 103.98 billion in annual transactions, representing 44.8% of the total output value.

The total annual transaction volume of other projects was approximately RMB 20.29 billion, accounting for 8.8% of the total output value.

The client is still the same client, and the contractor is still the same contractor, but by adding two more steps to the process, the money is made.

300 clients in the city contracted their business to Company A.

All 3000 contractors in the city will subcontract their business to Company B.

The market that was originally 3000 contractors serving 300 clients has become a market where B provides financial services to A. However, in terms of actual construction and operation management, it is still a market where 3000 contractors serve 300 clients.

Both Company A and Company B belong to Wenyu.

The amount of money remains the same, but there are two additional transaction fees. In addition, there are two new companies, A+B, with a transaction volume of over 20 billion each.

What's the use?

With a commission rate of 1%, you can easily make 200 million yuan in net profit per year.

With a transaction volume of over 200 billion, how much credit can they actually get from the bank?

This is called the initial empty-handed acquisition of power.

Company A and Company B naturally have shares belonging to Cao Cheng, the Party Secretary of the Municipal Government, and Sun Jun, the Director of the Municipal Development and Reform Commission.

Clubhouse.

KTV on the second floor.

Cao Cheng stood in the room with a microphone in his hand, and in his arms was Jian Zhi, a student from a well-known university in Heihai City.

Sun Jun stood aside with a forced smile.

He and Cao Cheng usually have frequent contact due to work, but it's mostly superficial. Cao Cheng usually communicates with him through his secretary about the specific details. Now, being able to sing in a private room while holding a young girl is already a big step forward.

Improved relationships mean a better chance of advancing in one's career.

"Sun Jun".

"Hey, boss."

When people are away from home, they always refer to Cao Cheng, the Party Secretary of the Municipal Committee, as Boss Cao.

"You keep singing, I'm going to rest next door."

"Okay, thank you, boss."

Next door is the customer spa room, which Sun Jun has experienced; it's an unforgettable, blissful experience.

Even if he doesn't sing well, Sun Jun will still yell into the microphone to make sure that his singing can be heard by Boss Cao in the next SPA room. That's what execution is all about.

SPA room.

Two small beds, separated by a curtain.

Cao Cheng is on the left, and Wen Yu is on the right.

On either side stood a beautiful woman in a cheongsam, high-slit and openwork, with a shapely figure and her hair styled in a bun. Her speech and movements were quite elegant. Essential oil was poured on their backs, and the moment the cheongsam-clad woman touched them, both of them groaned in pleasure.

"The company's business has stabilized, and the boss's bonuses are still sitting in the account."

"No rush. I heard that Miss Luo and your brother are quite close?"

"It's about business dealings. The Luo family and NanX Energy Investment, a subsidiary of Ya Hong Group, have in-depth cooperation."

Cao Cheng took a deep breath.

He had inquired about Ya Hong Group; it was a giant enterprise in Nan Province that had a partnership with Governor Luo. No wonder Luo Tian introduced Wen Yu to him; for him, this was a favor he had received from a family.

"I don't need the red envelope, but it would be even better if Mr. Wen could make a connection for me."

It's all just polite talk about power.

Wen Yuan understood, of course.

"Director Sun has a beautiful singing voice."

Cao Cheng also heard the wolf howls, but this also proved that Sun Jun was very pragmatic, obedient and sensible.

"Deputy provincial-level cadres are provincial-level cadres, and their selection and appointment are entirely the responsibility of the provincial party committee and organization department. The municipal party committee only has the right to recommend, not the right to decide."

"You just make the recommendations, and my brother will take care of the rest."

"Hehe, it's a real pity that I only met with President Shen a few times back then. I wonder if Boss Wen could arrange a time for me to meet with President Shen again."

"Of course, with Boss Cao helping me so much, I'll definitely invite my brother over."

A month later.

Cao Cheng kept his promise and reported Sun Jun's suggestion to be promoted to deputy director to the provincial party committee and the organization department.

I returned to Black Sea City, to the clubhouse.

"Mr. Shen, it's been a long time."

This time, Cao Cheng was no longer as aloof as he was during their first meeting.

"Secretary Cao, are you satisfied with your stay with Wen Yu?"

"Satisfied, very satisfied."

A few perfunctory pleasantries.

"I heard from Mr. Wen that Mr. Shen has been in the provincial capital recently?"

"Yes, I'll be busy in the Eastern Province for a few years, so I'm planning to build a manor in the provincial capital. I just finished dealing with the land issue and am now looking for funding."

When Cao Cheng heard that I wanted to visit the Gao Manor in the provincial capital, his eyes lit up: "This manor?"

"Hehe, let's find a place for the big boss to have fun."

Sure enough!

Cao Cheng asked calmly, "President Shen, are you facing any financial difficulties regarding the estate?"

I gestured with my chin: "Funding has never been a problem for Ya Hong. However, recently, the investment in the integrated livelihood project has indeed put me under some financial strain."

"How about this, I'll introduce a few people to President Shen. Although they're not as big as Ya Hong Group, they can still help President Shen with his immediate needs."

I nodded.

"Thank you very much. I will remember this favor from Boss Cao."

"Ha ha."

"Mr. Cao, are you familiar with the integrated livelihood project?"

"I don't know much, but the economy of the neighboring city has indeed changed quite a bit in the past year."

"Ya Hong Group has invested 600 billion yuan there to improve people's livelihoods. The results are significant so far. I wonder if Boss Cao intends to launch this project next year?"

Cao Cheng's heart skipped a beat. This must be the project that Governor Luo and NanX Energy Group are cooperating on.

opportunity!

An opportunity to get close to Luo Guoqing.

"Of course, I will spare no effort to support anything that improves people's lives."

"That would be great. After the New Year, the Provincial Party Committee will also issue policies. Boss Cao, you should pay more attention to this. There may be some dissenting voices during the process, so you have to withstand the pressure."

"Don't worry, President Shen. Now that the Provincial Party Committee has issued the policy, I will definitely not cause any trouble for the Provincial Party Committee or Governor Luo."

He's definitely a seasoned veteran.

They finished their conversation, each with their own ulterior motives.

On the eve of departure.

Wen Yu suddenly said.

"Boss Cao, could we take a picture together?"

Cao Cheng was actually somewhat opposed, but since he had just finished discussing the cooperation with me a moment ago, he was forced into it and nodded in agreement.

From then on, Wen Yu's clubhouse displayed a close-up photo of him and the Party Secretary of Heihai City.
