Chapter 334 – Got setup! (1/2)
The performer is Investment Promotion Agency’s Chief Dong Xuebing?!
After the host, Su Jia finished her sentence, the audience starts to whisper among themselves. This performance is too sudden. Everyone in the audience is leaders within the county government. When they heard Dong Xuebing will be representing the Investment Promotion Agency to break bricks with one hand. Lots of people frowned, but the people from the Public Security Bureau cheered. All of them were eager to watch Dong Xuebing’s performance.
Clap… clap… clap… the audience starts to clap.
Dong Xuebing was still seated in his chair and did not move.
Xie Huilan was smiling and enjoying the performances. But after Su Jia announced the performer’s name, she frowned slightly and turns to look at the County Government Office Director Yao Yi. “Breaking bricks with one hand? How come I not aware Xiao Dong will be performing today?” Yao Yi replied softly. “I am not sure too. His name is not listed as one of the performers yesterday when I check the program list.”
Xiang Daofa raised his brows and whispered something to the Publicity Department’s head, Chen Tongbing.
After waiting for a while, and no one appeared on the stage, the audience starts to look around for Dong Xuebing. Xie Huilan, Xiang Daofa, and other leaders also turn around to look for Dong Xuebing. Xie Huilan and Xiang Daofa immediately understood what happened when they saw Dong Xuebing’s gloomy face. Dong Xuebing had not registered this performance, and he is not prepared!
The person-in-charge of the performance saw Dong Xuebing’s expression and was shocked. He immediately called his assistant over and screamed. “What are you doing?! What is wrong with Chief Dong’s performance?” The assistant replied. “It was added last night.”
“Who registered this performance? Why is Chief Dong not aware?”
“It’s from the Investment Promotion Agency. I thought…”
The person-in-charge shouted angrily. “Why didn’t you call Chief Dong to confirm the performance? Huh?! Did you even check what he is performing? You add in this performance just because someone informs you? Do you have brains?” The assistant replied. “How can I check the program with someone at Chief Dong’s level? What should we do now?”
The person-in-charge paced up and down and ordered. “Start the music! Move the bricks!”
“But…” The assistant said. “Just go!” The person-in-charge can only hope Dong Xuebing can pull this off.
“Ah…” The assistant quickly runs out to carry out the orders.
This is a major screw up!
Dong Xuebing does not know he is supposed to be performing today!
Chief Dong is the head of the Investment Promotion Agency, and he will not forget he has to perform. This will put his career at risk, as Party Secretary Xiang and other County leaders are seriously treating this celebration. They had even issued official orders for tonight’s performance. From Chief Dong’s expression, everyone knew he was set up!
Qin Yong asked anxiously. “Is it Meng Xianglin?”
“Other than him, who else can it be?” Dong Xuebing took a deep breath, as he is burning with rage inside.
Meng Xianglin, the former Chief of Investment Promotion Agency, was forced to retire due to a stroke from the elevator incident. He believes Dong Xuebing was the one who had caused the elevator’s cable to snap. But the Public Security found no evidence of foul play after their investigations. Since he is going to retire due to medical reasons, he had nothing to worry about. Before he left his office, he secretly registered Dong Xuebing’s name as one of the performers to make him make a fool of himself.
This must be it!
This old bastard!
The music started, but the main performer, Dong Xuebing, was still seated among the audience.
Not everyone knew Dong Xuebing was being set up, and some were still wondering why no one is going up the stage.
