After the nap, it's time to gather. Everyone will move to Wenyuan Lidu. The distance between the two hotels is neither too close nor too far.
Wang Tong waved his car keys somewhat boastfully: "Lijuan, Hongqiang, Hongyu, you can ride in my car. The rest of you, try to be quick as well..."
Others started hailing tricycles or pushing bicycles.
He Hongjuan was originally walking over with Zhu Lijuan, but now suddenly found herself without a companion, feeling a bit awkward.
Yuan Ziqiang called out to her: "Xiao He, let's walk over together with brother Qin."
Qin Chizian said: "Let's go, my car is over there..." Both of them, following his gesture, suddenly widened their eyes.
Wang Tong, who was about to drive, saw Qin Chizian and a few others standing next to his car, and couldn't help but feel proud: "There's only one seat left in my car... you guys figure it out yourselves!"
Before Qin Chizian could speak, Yuan Ziqiang spoke first: "Your car is parked too close, we can't even open our car doors."
Wang Tong glanced at the nearby Mercedes-Benz, looking incredulous: "Hmph, just a few of you, and you can drive this car!"
While speaking, Yuan Ziqiang took the keys from Qin Chizian and said, "Brother Qin, today let the little brother show off a bit..." In Wang Tong's Suzuki Alto, several people saw Yuan Ziqiang sit in the driver's seat of the Mercedes-Benz through the rearview mirror and quickly overtake them, racing ahead. When they arrived at Wenyuan Lidu, they were led by the staff to the reserved private room.
Qin Chizian doesn't like this kind of environment. He came out to find a place to sit and rest, and Yuan Ziqiang followed him out, saying, "Brother Qin, why are people so materialistic nowadays? A large group of people are all surrounding Wang Tong, Zhu Lijuan, and Han Hongyu, the ones with positions, completely losing the meaning of gathering."
Qin Chizian replied, "Didn't your father tell you? Politics is actually an extreme challenge to a person's endurance, intelligence, and emotional intelligence. The Way of the Official is deeply understood. The gains and losses in the short term are hard to explain. As long as you are in this circle, you will have opportunities."
Yuan Ziqiang said, "I understand the reasoning, but I just can't accept these people blatantly dividing themselves by rank and position."
Qin Chizian stimulated him, "Then you should work hard to become strong."
Wang Hongqiang called out to the two, "Xiao Qin, Xiao Yuan, you can't stray from the group, especially you, Xiao Qin. Come over and sing one."
Yuan Ziqiang sang the most popular song, "Wandering Song," while Qin Chizian performed exceptionally well, singing a solo of the future hit "Meeting in 1998" that will be featured on the Spring Festival Gala. However, aside from Wang Tong, Zhu Lijuan, and Han Hongyu, everyone else's performances received lukewarm responses.
......
It was really tasteless, and it was finally over when Wang Hongqiang announced the end. No one was directing, but almost everyone stood still in their original positions, waiting for Wang Tong, Zhu Lijuan, Han Hongyu, and others to come out first before leaving one by one.
Yuan Ziqiang pulled Qin Chizian: "Brother Qin, come on, walk with me to the stairs."
Everyone is gathering in the lobby, hosted by Wang Hongqiang, waiting for Zhu Lijuan to "speak," when two people come out of the stairs. Wang Tong frowns and says, "Why do you two always want to be different and not conform to the group? Do you know that what you are doing is very dangerous within the system!" Yuan Ziqiang wants to say something, but Qin Chizian stops him. It's not worth arguing with this kind of person.
Zhu Lijuan's speech was brief: "This gathering was very successful; everyone exchanged ideas and enriched their leisure lives."
Next, Wang Tong took the microphone: "Director Ke spoke very well. Here, I want to criticize a few students without naming names; you must obey the collective and follow organizational arrangements."
Yuan Ziqiang chimed in with a voice that was neither loud nor soft: "What are you pretending to be so important?"
