Chapter 2065: Vote by Raising Hands

Deputy Director Li Quanhai said seriously: "Everyone's words are very reasonable, but you must be clear that if Zhou Andong cannot get all the management rights, he will definitely not invest. This is the news revealed to me by the higher-ups, so I must make it clear to you."

Party Group Discipline Inspection Team Leader Niu Sunyuan said: "Although Zhou Andong took away the stores, sales channels, and storage and transportation, people don't want wholesale, processing, and procurement."

"Therefore, our general cooperative is not without things to do. The meaning of the higher-ups is to let us establish a third-industry company to revitalize assets such as wholesale, processing, and procurement."

The little old man Ma Hongshan cast his gaze at the crowd below the stage.

"As long as you can successfully revitalize these assets of wholesale, processing, and procurement, and fulfill your duties well, and serve the three rural areas well, it will be enough to keep you busy. There is no need to go and fight with Zhou Andong."

"To tell you the truth, I firmly believe that everyone has a sincere, selfless, and realistic heart. You fight for the right to speak because you want to pull the supply and marketing cooperative out of the quagmire and serve the three rural areas perfectly."

"But have you ever thought that everyone present, including me, cannot work in the supply and marketing cooperative for a lifetime. If we are transferred or retired, will our successors be as selfless as we are?"

Ma Hongshan exchanged a few words with the leaders beside him in a low voice, and then said: "So ah, what we are fighting for is not the right to speak, but huge hidden dangers."

"I think Zhou Andong must have seen this point, so he demanded to get all the right to speak, and the general cooperative is not allowed to participate in management. This is clearing mines for the development of the supply and marketing cooperative, not fighting for power with you."

Niu Sunyuan pondered and said: "The director has already made the pros and cons clear. Does anyone have any different opinions?"

No one spoke anymore below. Niu Sunyuan exchanged with Ma Hongshan and the other three deputy directors, and then said.

"Let's do this, let's vote by raising hands."

Ma Hongshan nodded and raised his hand first: "Those who agree, please raise your hands."

A total of nineteen people all raised their hands. The leaders reached an opinion, and the director set the tone. Even if someone was dissatisfied in their heart, as long as they were not brain-dead, they would not oppose it.

"Then that's it, meeting adjourned, I have to go find the leaders to report."

A smile appeared on Ma Hongshan's face, and his whole person relaxed. He was also very worried these past few days.

The general cooperative had only been restored for more than a month, and everyone was drawn from other departments and was in the process of grinding.

Therefore, in situations where there were major differences on some issues, he tried his best to solve them in a gentle way.

National Defense Fifth Research Institute!

The first artificial satellite and missile engine, as well as manned space flight, construction of space laboratories, and final entry into space station construction, all came from the Fifth Research Institute.

At this time, the dean of the Fifth Research Institute was Qian Lao. He was smoking behind his desk, and several old men were sitting on the sofa opposite, staring at him with their eyes wide open.

"Old Qian, didn't you go to the National Science and Technology Commission to ask? How many days has it been, hasn't the money arrived yet? We don't say we want it all, even if they give us half, no, give us 200 million US dollars and we will be satisfied, our work can start immediately."

"Old Qian!" Another old man said with hatred for iron not becoming steel: "Why are you so steady? If you are not willing to go, we will go."

Qian Lao looked at them and said helplessly: "If the money had arrived, the Commission would definitely have notified me. Since there is no movement, the money must not have arrived."

"You guys say, how many days has it been, why hasn't the money arrived yet?" A tall and thin old man said: "It won't be Zhou Andong that kid firing blanks, right?"

"The possibility of firing blanks is not high." Qian Lao said with a smile: "So many newspapers reported it, and the influence is so great. If Zhou Andong fires blanks, his character will stink, and the company will also be affected."

"That's 1 billion US dollars. Converted into RMB, it's nearly 10 billion. Don't say private enterprises, how many state-owned enterprises and central enterprises have such a scale?"

"Taking out so much money definitely requires time. It's impossible to say today that it will be given to you, and the money will arrive tomorrow. This is not realistic."

A little fat old man nodded slightly: "Old Qian's words make sense, but I'm afraid the Commission will misappropriate the money, and in the end, we won't get a cent."

"That's 1 billion US dollars." Qian Lao smoked slowly: "Even if the Commission misappropriated it, it's impossible to use it all up and not leave us a cent. If they really did this, I will definitely go to the central government to complain, so you can rest assured."

Qian Lao paused and continued: "Moreover, I believe the Commission will not do this. After all, this is a major event concerning the country's scientific and technological development. They should understand the importance and significance of this fund, and we must maintain a certain degree of trust and patience in the Commission."

Everyone nodded one after another, but they were still a bit worried in their hearts. After all, such a large sum of funds involves the interests of many people and cannot be taken lightly.

"However, we must also be prepared for the worst." Qian Lao reminded: "If the Commission really has problems, we must take action to safeguard our rights and interests. But before that, we must remain calm and rational."

Everyone agreed and decided to continue to pay attention to the progress of the matter and be ready to deal with possible situations at any time.

After all, the aerospace engineering project has been established for twenty years, and it has been stopped and started because of funding problems.

Now Zhou Andong donated 1 billion US dollars. They don't ask to get it all, even if they get 200 million, they will be satisfied.

National Defense Science and Technology Commission, formerly the Aviation Industry Commission, later the Aviation Industry Group.

At this time, Qiao Zhengmin, the deputy director in charge of finance, walked to his office with his hands behind his back.

At this time, a thin, thin middle-aged man wearing a leather jacket ran over after him.

"Director, Director!"

This guy is called Ma Sanqiang, the section chief of the Finance Section of the Commission, and also Qiao Zhengmin's nephew.

Qiao Zhengmin stopped, turned around, and frowned when he saw it was Ma Sanqiang.

"You are also a section chief now. You are always so hairy and restless, and you are shouting in the corridor. What kind of system is this? If there is anything, can't you say it in my office?"

Ma Sanqiang smiled, took out a pack of Huazi from his pocket, pulled one out and handed it to Qiao Zhengmin, then took out a lighter to light it.

"I just want to ask, after that 1 billion US dollars arrives, is it really going to build cadre buildings?"

"Who did you hear that from?" Qiao Zhengmin's face suddenly became serious: "That money is scientific research funds donated by patriotic entrepreneurs to the country. How can it be used to build cadre buildings?" ===== CHAPTER 2066 =====
