The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 702: Not Knowing What’s Good for You

After being sprayed twice by He Beibei, Chen Bin immediately lost interest in continuing.

He directly picked her up and carried her into the bathroom.

During the shower, he asked He Beibei to give him another oral session.

After cleaning up, they finished their shower and lay on the bed together.

Before sleeping, they shared a moment of intimacy again.

During their conversation, Chen Bin found out that Yang Linke is actually Xiong Wubing's uncle.

And Yang Linke also has a distant niece, who happens to be the TV station host Yan Kangli.

This news surprised Chen Bin; he didn't expect such a relationship between the three.

The next morning, Chen Bin went to his office at the station and called Lu Lin over.

"I need you to keep an eye on Yan Kangli. If there's any unusual activity, you must report it immediately."

"Okay, I'll take care of it right away."

Lu Lin knew that Yan Kangli became a famous host all because of Chen Bin's promotion.

Why does Chen Bin want to monitor Yan Kangli now?

Although filled with doubt, Lu Lin still didn't ask more questions.

After all, Chen Bin is his boss, and he just needs to follow orders.

Before getting off work in the evening, Chen Bin suddenly received a call from an unfamiliar number.

"Hello, who is this?"

A cheerful voice came from the other end, "Governor Chen, this is Bao Kanglu."

Minister Bao Kanglu of the Provincial Organization Department?

"Oh, it's Minister Bao. I wonder what brings you to call me?"

"Nothing much, just wanted to invite Governor Chen for dinner tonight."

Slightly frowning, Chen Bin didn't believe it was just dinner.

However, after hesitating, he still answered with a smile.

"Actually, I happened to have something tonight, but since Minister Bao invited me, I must make some time."

"You're giving me great respect! So as not to waste Governor Chen's valuable time, how about we meet directly at the hotel near your station?"

"Alright, let's meet soon."

After work, Chen Bin stayed in the office playing with his phone for a while before slowly heading to the Radio and Television International Hotel.

Although Bao Kanglu holds a high position, Chen Bin doesn't have a great impression of this veteran.

This time, the other party is being overly courteous for no reason, so Chen Bin feels it's justified to act big.

Led by a waiter, he arrived at the private room.

Chen Bin immediately said, "Minister Bao, I'm really sorry, something came up suddenly, so I'm late."

Bao Kanglu, full of smiles, showed no sign of dissatisfaction.

"It's okay, Governor Chen holds multiple positions, naturally work comes first."

"Thank you, Minister Bao, for understanding."

After this was said, Chen Bin noticed a handsome young man standing next to Bao Kanglu and asked, "Who is this?"

Bao Kanglu introduced, "He's Huo Kun, my nephew. Xiao Kun, this is Governor Chen."

Huo Kun immediately greeted Chen Bin, "Hello, Governor Chen."

Chen Bin smiled and nodded, "Hello!"

After the three sat down, Bao Kanglu asked Chen Bin to order food.

The latter didn't hesitate and specifically chose some expensive dishes.

This scene made Bao Kanglu a bit upset, but he couldn't say anything.

When Chen Bin finished ordering and prepared to hand the menu to the waiter, Huo Kun suddenly asked.

"Governor Chen, why didn't you order any wine?"

Chen Bin originally didn't want to drink, but reminded by Huo Kun, he immediately ordered two bottles of Moutai.

This scene made Bao Kanglu even more displeased.

With all the food and wine served, Chen Bin focused mainly on eating.

Bao Kanglu, perceiving the situation wasn't right, took the initiative to speak.

"How is the preparation for your station's Spring Festival Gala going?"

Chen Bin replied, "The programs are basically settled; soon we will start rehearsals."

"Then how about the hosts? Has it been decided?"

With just this sentence, Chen Bin understood the other party's intention.

But he still pretended not to understand.

"Of course, it's decided. Every year, we have the same few hosts at our station."

"Those four hosts are indeed excellent, but using them every time can cause the audience to become aesthetically fatigued. Why not replace one or two with outstanding young hosts?"

"We do have many excellent hosts, but the Spring Festival Gala is live; if something goes wrong, it would be troublesome."

"The future belongs to the young; I think you can be a bit bolder. If it wasn't for the organization appointing you as the TV station director back then, the provincial TV station would not have reached its current heights."

"Hosting a program and being a director are completely different - one is in front of the camera, the other is behind the scenes; they are of two different natures."

Seeing Chen Bin constantly dodging, Bao Kanglu turned green with anger.

He had to get straight to the point: "Huo Kun is a top student at Imperial Capital Media College, majoring in hosting. I think such talent should work at the provincial TV station. What is Governor Chen's opinion?"

"I do love talent indeed, but our station is a corporate entity, and every position is filled currently. No new programs needing hosts in the short term, how about... letting Huo Kun wait for a while?"

Huo Kun quickly asked, "Then Governor Chen, may I ask, how long is a while?"

"At least two or three years. You know Yan Kangli at our station, right? She too waited for a long time before getting her opportunity."

Slightly frowning, Huo Kun was visibly dissatisfied with this answer.

So he instinctively turned to look at Bao Kanglu.

Bao Kanglu also understood that Chen Bin was refusing him, but he still pressed on calmly.

"Governor Chen, I only have Huo Kun as my nephew. I hope you can let him host this year's Spring Festival Gala, and then arrange for him to join a major program. How do you feel?"

Chen Bin was taken aback, this person is really shameless, isn't he?

Asking for help without offering benefits, yet making so many demands.

"Minister Bao, the provincial station isn't privately owned by me, so we can't just do whatever we want. If I arrange someone despite others' objections, it might cause problems."

"So, are you saying you don't want to give me face?"

"Of course not, if I weren't giving face, I wouldn't have come for this dinner. Minister Bao, put yourself in my position; if people can easily arrange others into the provincial station, what if others ask me for help in the future?"

As a member of the Provincial Committee, Bao Kanglu naturally didn't want to lose face in front of his nephew.

With clenched fists, he suppressed his anger.

He said coldly, "Governor Chen, if you're willing to help me, I'll definitely help you in the future. But if you don't appreciate it, then don't blame me for being rude!"

Chen Bin continued eating, casually responding.

"What I fear the least is threats, otherwise I wouldn't have climbed to my current position."

"Fine, then let's wait and see!"

Seeing Bao Kanglu preparing to leave with Huo Kun, Chen Bin leisurely reminded him again.

"Whether it was Feng Huzhou before or Pang Nianke later, both held higher positions than you; they couldn't deal with me either. If you have unrealistic ideas, you'd better give them up early."

Bao Kanglu didn't respond, just turned his head and gave Chen Bin a resentful glare before leaving.

Clearly, he didn't take Chen Bin's warning seriously...
