Chapter 401 Stunned and Shocked!

When they saw the two heads of the units suddenly appear at their father's birthday party with wine glasses in their hands, Li Xiaofan's uncle, Li Weijian, deputy director of the Gulou Branch of the Haishu Branch of the Mingzhou Branch of the Bank of China, and his second uncle, Li Weikan, chief clerk of the office of the Mingzhou Foreign Trade Bureau, trembled and got excited:

Oh shit, what's going on today? The two heads of the units actually toasted them!

You know, these two are deputy department-level leaders of Mingzhou City (Mingzhou is a national separately planned city and a sub-provincial city), how much face is this?

The two were flattered!

Unexpectedly,

"Xiao Li, you are here too..."

Director Qian Yuncheng simply greeted Li Xiaofan and Li Weikan.

President Sun Qingguo just nodded slightly at Li Weijian: "Well, okay..."

Then, the two leaders walked past them and went straight to the 8th table next to them.

At this time, Li Xiaofan and Xiao Doudou were playing Transformers on the table No. 8.

When Li Xiaofan folded Optimus Prime into a heavy truck, Xiao Doudou laughed: "Brother Xiaofan, it's so fun!"

"Doudou, can I turn you into a Bumblebee Chevrolet car..."

Xiao Doudou said happily: "Okay, okay, thank you Brother Xiaofan!"

When Li Xiaofan was about to fold another Bumblebee for Xiao Doudou, he suddenly found that the surrounding environment seemed to be much quieter.

Then, two familiar strong middle-aged voices sounded beside him.

"Mr. Li, we are here to toast you!"

Li Xiaofan looked back and saw that it was President Sun Qingguo and Director Qian Yuncheng standing behind him with a smile and holding a glass of wine.

When you meet acquaintances at the same restaurant, especially more distinguished guests or superiors, come over to toast a glass of wine. This is a traditional etiquette in Minnesota.

This etiquette is particularly particular for leaders within the system. If you know that the other party does not come to toast a glass of wine, it is equivalent to being rude!

Li Xiaofan quickly stood up and raised his glass, saying:

"Oh, it's embarrassing that two big leaders came to toast in person. Sorry, it's my turn to toast you two leaders!"

President Sun Qingguo patted Li Xiaofan's shoulder affectionately and said:

"Hey, Mr. Li, don't be so formal. We brothers won't talk about different things. Come, Director Qian and I will toast you first. I wish your career will flourish. I hope that your deposits in our bank will exceed nine figures in the future!"

Director Qian Yuncheng also added a sentence: "Well, Mr. Li, I wish you a better career. I hope you will have the opportunity to invest in several large foreign-funded projects in your hometown to benefit your hometown!"

President Sun Qingguo and Director Qian Yuncheng toasted Li Xiaofan one by one, which shocked Li Xiaofan's uncle Li Weijian and second uncle Li Weikan at the table No. 2 next to them!

Earlier, the two thought that the top leaders of the unit came to toast them, but they never thought that the two leaders just nodded and went straight to their nephew Li Xiaofan.

Basically, they ignored Li Weijian and Li Weikang.

It was considered a face-giving for the top leaders to greet them and nod in public.

That was fine.

What surprised Li Weijian and Li Weikang was that the top leaders of the two units, the deputy department-level leaders, came for their nephew Li Xiaofan.

As deputy directors of a small bank branch and chief clerks in the system, they rarely have the opportunity to communicate with these two high-ranking top leaders alone.

Their levels are too far behind the top leaders of the unit.

As for the bank, Li Weijian has a top branch director, and above him is the deputy president in charge of the branch, the top branch president and the deputy president in charge of the city branch, and finally to the president of the city branch, Sun Qingguo. There are 5 levels in between!

In a bank, it is very difficult to be promoted from deputy director of a branch office to the top director. You need the president above to appreciate you and you have outstanding abilities! Especially for a technical secondary school student like him, it is very difficult to be promoted.

In the Foreign Trade Bureau, Li Weikang, the chief clerk, has the deputy director in charge of the office, the office director and the deputy director in charge, and finally the director Qian Yuncheng. There are 4 levels in between!

In this system, if you want to be promoted from a chief clerk to a deputy director of the office at the deputy level, it is very difficult without seven or eight years of hard work!

Especially for college students like Li Weikang, their academic qualifications are outdated. Now the newly assigned ones are all undergraduates and master's students who graduated from key universities.

Of course, academic qualifications are not the only thing that matters within the unit. The diplomas they later studied at TV universities, night universities and party school universities are also recognized within the system.

In the end, everyone often competes on ability, qualifications, resources and connections, but the most important thing is the degree of your relationship with the top leader of the unit, which directly affects your promotion and status within the unit!

Now, the two top leaders of the units who are usually high and mighty came from outside to the birthday banquet and toasted their nephew Li Xiaofan.

What a great honor!

That's fine.

At the moment, the two top leaders had smiles on their faces when they toasted their nephew, and the words they said shocked them even more!

President Sun Qingguo actually patted Li Xiaofan on the shoulder, calling him brother affectionately, and looked familiar, "I hope that the deposits in our bank will exceed nine figures in the future!" From what President Sun said, Li Xiaofan's deposits in Bank of China are already eight figures?

You must know that a nine-digit deposit is hundreds of millions, and an eight-digit deposit is tens of millions of yuan!

Li Weijian was stunned when he heard this.

The same goes for Li Weikang next to him. He was also shocked when he heard Director Qian say to his eldest nephew Li Xiaofan, "I hope to have the opportunity to come to my hometown to invest in several large foreign investment projects to benefit the country."

How could He De, the eldest nephew who had only been working in Singapore for two years, let Director Qian say such words to him?

Brothers Li Weijian and Li Weikang, you look at me, I look at you, and then look at the two top leaders and eldest nephew Li Xiaofan at table No. 8. They are speechless...

They don't know what's going on here?

After President Sun Qingguo and President Qian Yuncheng toasted with Li Xiaofan, the two leaders said to Li Xiaofan:

"Director Li, today is your grandpa's eightieth birthday. Could you please accompany us to toast your grandpa and the birthday boy with a glass of wine?"

This is also a common etiquette. Li Xiaofan couldn't refuse, so he bowed and said: "Thank you so much, two leaders, for giving me face! Okay, I will accompany you two leaders there..."

When Li Xiaofan accompanied the two leaders to get up and walk to his grandfather Li Mingxian's table, two brothers, Li Weijian and Li Weikang, were already leading the way.

The two brothers led the way humbly and said with flattering smiles on their faces: "Today the two big leaders came over to propose a toast. They really gave us face and made our Li family shine!"

President Sun Qingguo and Director Qian Yuncheng asked curiously: "What is your relationship with Director Li?"

At this time, the two brothers had realized that Director Li in the leader's mouth was Li Xiaofan.

The two rushed to answer: "Dr. Li is our eldest nephew..."
