Chapter 2397: Treating Chronic Illness Requires Strong Medicine
Su Xinghui finished changing his clothes and was blowing his hair with a hairdryer when his door was knocked. He opened the door, and it was Yi Bingcheng.
Yi Bingcheng smiled and said, "Group Leader Su, can I come in?"
Su Xinghui made way and said, "Of course you can come in. Mayor Yi, why did you eat so fast?"
Yi Bingcheng said, "I've always eaten very fast."
Su Xinghui let Yi Bingcheng sit down and then took a cup to make tea for him. Yi Bingcheng quickly took the cup and said, "I'll do it myself. Group Leader Su, you are the guest."
Su Xinghui didn't insist. He watched Yi Bingcheng make two cups of tea and placed one in front of each person. Su Xinghui said, "Then thank you, Mayor Yi."
Yi Bingcheng pretended to be straightforward and laughed: "Why be so polite? You are the distinguished guests who are hard to invite!"
Su Xinghui smiled and said, "Not necessarily distinguished guests; maybe even unwelcome guests."
Yi Bingcheng said, "Group Leader Su is joking."
Su Xinghui said, "I'm not joking. Some people in Yanzhong City might not want to see what I'm going to do. If I'm not an unwelcome guest, what am I?"
Yi Bingcheng laughed and said, "At least I am very willing to see it. The current Yanzhong Textile Group already looks a bit terminally ill and has become a heavy burden on the city. If Group Leader Su can lead it onto the right track, that would be a great thing for our city!"
Su Xinghui said, "Treating chronic illness requires strong medicine. The more terminally ill it is, the more strong medicine you have to take to be effective. However, the person drinking this strong medicine might not be very happy, and it might not necessarily be curable."
Yi Bingcheng smiled reluctantly: "It's fine, treat a dead horse as a living horse."
Su Xinghui said, "Oh, in Mayor Yi's eyes, the Yanzhong Textile Group is already a dead horse? But the Yanzhong Textile Group was once glorious and made outstanding contributions to Yanzhong City's economy. Does Mayor Yi want to give up just like that?"
Yi Bingcheng was a bit angry. You, Su Xinghui, are too aggressive, right? Regardless, my rank is higher than yours, and I have always treated you with courtesy. Do you have to be like this? It's truly success at a young age, too arrogant. It seems that the low-key humility at yesterday's banquet was all faked.
Yi Bingcheng's face looked a bit bad as he said, "No matter how glorious the Yanzhong Textile Group was in the past, the current situation is just like this. This isn't a problem of any one family. Now, the state-owned enterprises of the whole country have fallen into difficulty. This is mainly because they can't keep up with the changes of the times. It's hard to avoid."
Su Xinghui said, "I heard that some leaders in Yanzhong City once wanted to let the Yanzhong Textile Group go bankrupt?"
This matter was indeed true. In Yanzhong City, there were some leaders who wanted to let the Yanzhong Textile Group go bankrupt, but this opinion was strongly opposed by other leaders. The Yanzhong Textile Group was once the face of Yanzhong City, a star enterprise with a glorious past. How could it go bankrupt?
Moreover, if it really went bankrupt, what should those 30,000 workers do?
The opinions of the two factions were deadlocked, which made the entire Yanzhong Textile Group panic and also caused a panic in Yanzhong City. If even the Yanzhong Textile Group went bankrupt, what should other enterprises do? Would it cause a chain reaction?
Later, the ministry directly intervened in this matter, and the proposal for bankruptcy was stopped.
Yi Bingcheng was one of the leaders who insisted on bankruptcy at the time. Hearing Su Xinghui mention this matter, he forced a smile and said, "Bankruptcy is also a way to solve the problem. In the situation at that time, everyone felt that the Yanzhong Textile Group couldn't be saved, so it was better to go bankrupt and liquidate while the assets were still worth something."
Su Xinghui nodded slightly and said, "Mm, I know your general thoughts."
Su Xinghui picked up the teacup and sipped the tea in the cup. This made Yi Bingcheng a bit confused. Su Xinghui asked these few questions without rhyme or reason and then stopped talking. What does this mean?
Yi Bingcheng was quite unhappy in his heart, but he was worthy of being a person in the officialdom, able to bend and stretch. He controlled his emotions very well. He smiled and said, "Where does Group Leader Su want to go for a stroll today? Why don't I accompany you to a manor outside the city? You can ride horses there, and you can also shoot guns. Group Leader Su shouldn't have ridden a horse yet, right? After we ride horses, we can also have a picnic. It's still quite flavorful."
Su Xinghui said coldly, "Mayor Yi, thank you for your kindness, but I won't go to the manor. I plan to move into the Yanzhong Textile Group today."
Yi Bingcheng was shocked and said, "Why is Group Leader Su so urgent? You just arrived in Yanzhong City; you can play for a few days first." ===== CHAPTER 2399 =====
