Jin Yutong

Chapter 176

Lu Daosen walked out of the arena with an almost livid face, which shows how upset he is at the moment. He didn't expect a small incident to turn out like this. Of course, the incident in front of him, although it made people He was upset, but not enough to make him livid.

The reason for his pale face is not that Zhou Jianyun and Lu Tianming lost more than 2000 million yuan in betting on stones. His Lu family is also considered a big business. It is really depressing to lose more than 2000 million yuan all at once. Very, but to his Lu family, it's just a drop in the bucket.

What really made his face ugly was the jade snuff bottle that the old man of the Zhou family dropped in the morning. When Zhou Jianyun learned about it, he also learned about it from his daughter. This jade snuff bottle was a birthday gift from the Lu family to Mr. Zhou when he celebrated his birthday some time ago. When it was given to Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhou loved it very much, but now Mr. Zhou is so angry that he directly This jade snuff bottle was smashed to pieces.

Needless to say, the intention of Mr. Zhou's move is undoubtedly to warn him.Mr. Zhou's warning, not to mention him, even if he looked at the entire Central Plains, no one could ignore it, which made him feel uneasy.

And the source of all this is because of Zhou Jianyun and Lu Tianming's stone betting yesterday afternoon. When Zhou Jianyun told him, it can be said that he put the responsibility on Chen Ran, which undoubtedly made him somewhat hate Chen Ran, so When Zhou Jianyun said that he wanted to exclude Chen Ran from the competition, he agreed almost without thinking.

Ordinarily at this time, the contest was about to start, but because of what happened, it could only be postponed temporarily. When Lu Daosen came out, the other judges and contestants also followed. In the chaotic scene outside, everyone couldn't help but look at each other in blank dismay.

Seeing the group of people headed by Lu Daosen, how could the people outside not know that the leader came out, and the scene became even more chaotic, and they didn't know who started it, so they coaxed them and shouted loudly : "What kind of competition is it? It's not fair at all. How can it be compared?"

When Lu Daosen came out, his face was ashen, but when he stood in front of the black crowd, his face had recovered. He waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, but the scene became even more chaotic. , he kept yelling loudly several times, and the audience gradually quieted down.

However, from time to time, some people shouted to let Chen Ran play in the competition. The champion of the competition cannot be eliminated just because some people are oppressive. How can there be any fairness in such a competition?

Those judges were changed a few times, but there were still many acquaintances, especially Professor Xie who had a good impression of Chen Ran, the gray old man and others also questioned Lu Daosen what was going on.

How could Lu Daosen let Chen Ran play at this moment? If he let Chen Ran play, wouldn't he admit Zhou Jianyun's statement that he used power to overwhelm others? If so, it would be no small matter. Although the power is not small, he also has political enemies. If he really did this, Mr. Zhou might not be smashing things, and he would definitely scold him directly.

After everyone quieted down, Lu Daosen quickly explained the matter, saying that he had received a report, and when Chen Ran signed up, the registration time for the competition had already ended. Those who do not have the qualifications to participate in the competition must have a qualification certificate for the jade carving industry.

After two or more years of experience in the jade carving industry, one can apply for a qualification certificate in the Jade Association, and Chen Ran is still an unlicensed jade carver even now.

Lu Daosen justly said that Chen Ran was excluded from the competition precisely because of the fairness of the competition.

This kind of explanation left everyone in the audience speechless, and no one could say anything. Although many people still felt that there was an inside story in private, at least on the surface they couldn't say anything. After all, Chen Ran's registration was indeed a Unruly.

After a while of discussion, the voices gradually stopped. Some shook their heads and sighed, some remained calm, some were disappointed and sympathetic...Of course, there were also those who gloated. At dawn, Li Baoping, Ma Jian and others were standing with him. Li Baoping felt a little pity for Chen Ran, but Ma Jian was secretly thankful. Last time he had a shit luck and picked up One is cheap and ranked third with 85 points. If Chen Ran can't participate in the competition, he will be the second.

Of course, there are quite a lot of people who have compassion for Chen Ran.

"Paralyzed, what a bad game, 'fuck', buddy, if you don't participate, you can't pass it." Guo Hai was so angry that his face turned green, he gritted his teeth and said, pulling Chen Ran away.

Zhu Feng had been keeping silent just now, but his eyes were a little strange. Guo Hai pulled Chen Ran to leave. He opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn’t say anything. If he was in Tianzhong City, he could still say something. Talking, but in Huadu, it is still such a big competition. For a while, he can't talk. He can't bother those big leaders just because of such a thing. It just makes him a little strange. You must know that he has seen this The competition in this year must be attended by the leader of the province, and that leader... "The one who scolded the neighbor is Zhou Jianyun, a bastard. He should have been beaten up just now." Yang Long also exploded in anger. He swears.

"You still said, if you hadn't pulled me just now, I wouldn't be surprised if I didn't strangle him to death." Guo Hai let go of Chen Ran, and gave Yang Long an angry look.

Yang Long was speechless, thinking that if you strangle him to death, we can still leave. Besides, if I go to pull you, you have no reaction at all. After Mu Mu said a word, you let go. At this time, he said me.

Chen Ran let out a sigh of relief. Although he clearly knew that Zhou Jianyun was responsible for his exclusion from the contest, but he had nothing to say when someone found out about him, and he could only sigh secretly at the people around him. He waved his hand and thanked him. Although these people didn't help in the end, they helped him out.

Chen Ran's thanks, obviously, won the goodwill of most people in the audience, they all comforted Chen Ran, and said that Chen Ran must participate in the next competition, and they will definitely support it.

"What's going on, what are you all doing here?"

After thanking him, Chen Ran was about to leave, but at this moment, a voice suddenly came in from outside the crowd, and then a group of people came over, and the person walking in the middle had a saying in every gesture Unbelievable majesty.

Seeing this person, Lu Daosen didn't dare to neglect him, he quickly led a group of judges to meet him, and said repeatedly: "Minister Cao, when did you arrive, why didn't you inform us?"

Minister Cao shook hands with him, and said with a smile, "I've just arrived, so I shouldn't be late, right?"

"Of course not, of course not..." Lu Daosen shook his head repeatedly with a smile on his face.

Minister Cao smiled cheerfully. After shaking hands with a group of judges, he asked with a smile, "What happened? Why are you all gathered here?"

"It's nothing serious, it's been dealt with, Minister Cao, let's go in." As Lu Daosen was speaking, he invited Minister Cao to enter the arena, but Minister Cao did not follow him into the arena, but pointed at Chen meaningfully. Then smiled.

Chen Ran was also quite surprised when he saw this person, because the Minister Cao that Lu Daosen was talking about was Cao Guoxiong who had a relationship with him yesterday, that is, Ruoruo's grandfather.

When I saw this person yesterday, although he looked a bit imposing, compared with today, there is obviously a big gap.

Although Chen Ran recognized Cao Guoxiong, Cao Guoxiong also smiled at Chen Ran, but Chen Ran didn't speak rashly, but nodded secretly.

In fact, Cao Guoxiong has been here for a while, and he has already understood the whole thing, but in this kind of public place, he naturally cannot get to know Chen Ran. In that case, if he helps Chen Ran , will undoubtedly give people the feeling of being overwhelmed by power, so they simply pretend that they don't know Chen Ran.

Cao Guoxiong didn't speak, but it doesn't mean that no one understands what he means. Officials pay attention to understanding. He didn't speak, and someone else would do it for him. Seeing that Lu Daosen was in a daze, the secretary next to him coughed quickly: "President Lu..."

"This...cough cough..." Lu Daosen's face was a little pale. Others didn't see Cao Guoxiong smiled at Chen Ran secretly, but he did, which made him feel a little stupid. Could it be that Chen Ran What does this kid have to do with Minister Cao... Thinking of this, he immediately broke into a cold sweat. Although he has the Zhou family as his backer, after all, Mr. Zhou has retired, and the Minister Cao in front of him, who is in his prime, has already sat down. On the throne of the executive vice-minister of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, and it is said that the head of the Organization Department will retire recently due to old age, and the person who will take over the position of the head of the Organization Department of the Provincial Party Committee, if there is no accident, it must be in front of him There is no doubt about this Minister Cao.

If you offend such a rookie in the officialdom... I can't bear to think about it, and Lu Daosen can only pray that Chen Ran has nothing to do with Minister Cao, but he just needs to take care of it when Minister Cao encounters such a thing, dare not Being negligent, he quickly told the whole thing. While talking, he also kept emphasizing that Chen Ran was excluded based on the principle of fairness in the competition.

"That's it..." After hearing this, Cao Guoxiong groaned for a while, and then said unhurriedly: "President Lu, we can't do one-size-fits-all when we do work. Specific things need to be treated specifically. The purpose of hosting the jade carving competition is to select excellent jade carving works and outstanding jade carving talents. It can be seen that the qualifications of the contestants are not the most critical, but the jade carving talents. Not impossible. President Lu, what do you think?"

Lu Daosen didn't say anything, and the audience around immediately echoed: "What Minister Cao said is true, Long Fengyu won the championship in the preliminaries, but was eliminated because of a small qualification problem, then It's so unfair."

After Cao Guoxiong said that, what else could Lu Daosen do? He could only nod and smile and said, "Minister Cao, I have no objection to letting Chen Ran participate in the competition, but I don't know if the other judges have any objections?"

We don't even know about this matter, so what opinion can we have?

Hearing Lu Daosen put the blame on them, the judges cursed inwardly, shook their heads quickly on the surface, and said they had no objection.

Rules are dead, people are alive, Minister Cao's words at this moment are undoubtedly Shang Fang's sword, with this Shang Fang's sword, everything can be changed.

Hearing that Chen Ran was ready to play, the surroundings suddenly exploded, and the cheers rang out... I have to say that after going through such a thing, Chen Ran has a lot of loyal fans, but it is unexpected other things.

After dealing with this matter, Cao Guoxiong nodded at Chen Ran, and surrounded by a group of people, entered the arena. After Chen Ran looked away, he was cheered and hugged by Guo Hai and Yang Long .

It's just that neither Chen Ran nor Guo Hai and Yang Long noticed that in the corner next to them, a pair of eyes full of vicious expressions were staring at their direction.
