Chapter 1066: Wind and Waves

~33 min read 6,457 words

There is a person in the capital who is good at ventriloquism, surnamed Zhang, named Songying.

Li Xuewu never knew that she was hiding such a hand, and he didn't know if it was intentional hiding or secret effort, anyway, it was very surprising.

For someone who withstands pressure and is positive, Li Xuewu feels that he should not be overly critical!

After a night of fighting, Zhang Songying went to the bathroom, and Li Xuewu lay there thinking about tonight's meal.

The wife of the deputy envoy of the foreign mission, has industrial layout in Hong Kong, and wants to manage the commercial markets of Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asia.

Even a simple business meeting can invite economic and cultural commissioners to accompany.

It is impossible for Li Xuewu not to be moved by this woman. Only allow the other party to calculate the Rolling Mill, not allow him to calculate that woman?

How can there be such a reason in this world!

Of course, Li Xuewu is not what the old lecherous readers think, coveting the other party's exotic customs, but the relationship she represents.

Chantal feels that the cargo and capital communication channels set up by the Rolling Mill and Wufengxing in the mainland and Hong Kong are very fragrant.

Then, Li Xuewu also feels that she, who has commercial influence in Japan, South Korea, and Southeast Asian countries like Singapore, is fragrant.

Don't forget, France is the first Western European country to establish normalized foreign affairs relations with the mainland.

One is an unsubmissive ally challenging the US hegemony globally; the other is a "family member" who does not listen to the baton until it openly breaks away from the track.

The communique issued jointly in 1964 can be described as a thunderous existence, directly shocking the brains of many people.

It is also because France took the first step to recognize us that other Western European countries put down their scruples and changed their positions and attitudes towards us one after another.

Therefore, whether it is in specific business or in the cooperative situation between countries, Chantal occupies a positive advantage.

Li Xuewu of course has to admit that the confidence expressed by the other party when talking about machinery, automobiles, electronics, and other fields has sufficient strength.

Even if France does not have such advanced industrial strength now, it does not mean that they cannot have it, they just don't need it.

The land area of Western European countries is too small, and the distribution of resources is extremely uneven.

If you have learned about the national map of ancient Western Europe, you will know that it is completely a relationship between villages, and the capital is the castle of the Duke.

The story of the twelve knights does not necessarily mean that twelve knights took the lead in charging. It is very likely that one side of the battlefield only had twelve knights.

It is also because of the fragmented territory and the history of constant disputes that created today's trade pattern that matches comprehensive industrial division and cooperation.

Everyone needs things to manufacture and sell according to their own resources. No one loses, no one is fooled.

This is different from the national conditions of the mainland. Here, Chantal learned that the production foundation required for industrial trade has basically achieved full coverage here.

Especially after the 156 industrial projects provided by the Soviet Union have developed and progressed for many years.

Just the industrial production capacity possessed by the Rolling Mill has shocked her.

After learning that the Rolling Mill has begun to accumulate the foundation for the development of heavy and light industry and is developing towards a trust-like group company, her misunderstanding and shock made her choose to stay.

A group company with heavy industrial production capabilities such as steelmaking, steel rolling, and manufacturing, and also light industrial production capabilities such as weapons, food, and electronics.

Are these symbols and signs put together not enough for her to take the initiative to cooperate closely with it?

Li Xuewu is also thinking based on this point, standing from Chantal's perspective looking at the mainland from France, then looking at Hong Kong from the mainland, and looking at the whole of Southeast Asia.

"What's wrong with you?"

Zhang Songying wrapped in a bath towel and wiping her hair came out of the bathroom and saw Li Xuewu sitting up from the bed, which startled her.

If it weren't for seeing Li Xuewu staring at the hanging painting on the wall with his eyes narrowed, she would have thought he was coming again.

This person's hard strength is really unbearable for her, the kind that is really unbearable.

Waiting for Li Xuewu to sit there for a long time, she walked over and asked softly: "Is there anything forgotten to arrange?"

"No, no, it's not..."

Li Xuewu shook his head slightly, sorting out his thoughts, and his eyeballs rolled around.

Zhang Songying knew he was going to calculate someone again, shrugged, and walked to the dressing table.

Looking at the man sitting on the bed from the square makeup mirror, she has happiness and expectations.

Being able to represent the Red Star Rolling Mill to be responsible for foreign affairs reception, and even more to negotiate important project cooperation with foreign businessmen, this means that Li Xuewu has gradually moved towards the management position of factory leaders.

Even if he is not a factory leader now, as long as the influence is sufficient, the position is just a matter of time.

Zhang Songying does not expect Li Xuewu to bring her more wealth and status after reaching a high position. This is not the original intention and heart of her being with Li Xuewu.

She likes the emotional value of watching the man she likes walk to the peak step by step.

"Do you still need to wipe things when you sleep at night?"

Li Xuewu sorted out his thoughts, got out of bed, put on a bathrobe, and walked to the office desk and sat down.

Don't think crookedly, it's the tie on the bathrobe that is dangling, not the thing you think.

Especially long and useless ones are called dangling, and those that are suitable in length and useful are called swinging.

Of course, the thing you think of is indeed swinging, it's not as long as the tie.

Zhang Songying pointed some white cream from a small bottle and rubbed it on her face, saying: "It is precisely because I am going to sleep that I have to apply this."

She tilted her head and looked at Li Xuewu and pouted: "Am I old a lot? You don't look at me anymore."

"Well—it seems to be old a lot!"

Li Xuewu pretended to look at her seriously for a while, and nodded and asked under Zhang Songying's dissatisfied expression: "You must be eighteen, right?"

"Puff—hahaha! Go to yours!"

Zhang Songying's mood, which was a bit concerned, all vanished at this time, and she couldn't help laughing out loud. She couldn't stand Li Xuewu's mouth.

Of course, Li Xuewu couldn't stand hers either.

"Humph—you just know how to coax me!"

She glanced at Li Xuewu with charming eyes and hummed: "If I weren't eighteen, would you dare to stay at the International Hotel tonight? You would have run away long ago—"

"Joke, eighteen is not a limit for me, nineteen is!"

Li Xuewu took out the manuscript paper provided by the hotel from the drawer, took his fountain pen, and began to write the report document.

He just sorted out his thoughts and wanted to put them on paper, taking advantage of the business trip to Jinmen tomorrow to tell Li Huade and Jing Yunong.

Zhang Songying combed her dry hair in front of the mirror and asked: "Why is it nineteen?"

"Because I came back at nineteen, in '65."

Li Xuewu looked at her after writing the first sentence and said: "Before I left in '62, I didn't know what a limit was."

"Eh—so you are such a person!"

Zhang Songying smiled and said with feigned disgust: "I thought you were an excellent good young man who was diligent and positive in learning since childhood."

"How is that possible? If you want to say that, it should be a good teenager. Did you use the wrong word for young man?"

Li Xuewu's ability to use his heart for two purposes can definitely satisfy the ability to write the report document in his hand while chatting with Zhang Songying.

"Besides, as a successor to socialism, I have been a good child since I was a child, but I just didn't meet good people."

"Yeah—who are you saying is not a good person!"

Zhang Songying blamed him, then used a hairpin to roll up her long hair and said: "It turns out that I was the one who influenced you badly."

"You are also very good at overthinking. When did I say that? My meaning is how difficult it is to get to this step today."

Li Xuewu wrote very fast, and the article was already in his mind, just need to put it on paper.

Zhang Songying took off her bathrobe, changed into a silk skirt pajamas she often wore, and walked to the front of the office desk.

"Going to Jinmen tomorrow, still writing reports? Can't you write them when you come back?"

"Precisely because I am going to Jinmen, I have to finish it tonight."

Li Xuewu explained: "As long as I go on a business trip, I will never have time to handle these copywriting works."

"Oh, by the way—"

He looked at Zhang Songying and asked: "Is there anything you need me to buy for you? Think about it and tell me."

"Can the goods in Jinmen be more than in the capital?"

Zhang Songying didn't care and sat on the chair opposite the office desk to accompany him, saying: "Even if there are novel ones, how much better can they be than in the capital? It's nothing more than a novelty."

"You are on a business trip, and you are so busy." She muttered understandingly: "You are already so hard to be responsible for the big things of the Rolling Mill, and you are still thinking about my trivial matters."

"Do you still drink tea?"

After looking at Li Xuewu, she always felt that something was missing on the table. After thinking carefully, she remembered that he hadn't prepared tea for office work.

However, Li Xuewu had two cups of warm water during the break, and it was so late, she didn't want him to drink tea again, so she asked.

Li Xuewu nodded and said casually: "Listen to you, anything is fine."

"Then plain water, it's very late."

Zhang Songying said, then went to the tea cabinet to pour two cups of warm water and put them on the table.

"I heard that the factory and the Jinmen Aquatic Products Company have set up a new seafood product supply chain, right?"

She said casually: "The restaurant procurement report said that the factory has separated this business from joint trade and established a separate channel for management."

"Well, it's not separated from joint trade, nor is it establishing any separate channel."

Li Xuewu answered while writing: "Joint trade still maintains the original growth trend of seafood product trade."

He glanced at Zhang Songying opposite, and then continued to write, while explaining: "It's just that the source channels for seafood products at the distribution terminal have been enriched."

"On the basis of joint trade, a channel serving special needs for fresh seafood products like the International Hotel has been added."

"Oh—I said so."

Zhang Songying raised her hand and touched her neck and said: "If joint trade canceled seafood trade, the service department in the factory would not have seafood for sale."

"Well, the service direction is different, there is no direct relationship. It's something made by Jinmen, and our factory is responsible for transportation."

After explaining, Li Xuewu didn't continue this topic, but took the initiative to ask about the management problems of the International Hotel, and also told her about introducing a cadre from the foreign affairs department to be seconded.

"Difficulties, always have."

Zhang Songying thought for a while and said: "Whether it is business, or logistics and service."

"But I can handle it, communicate slowly, solve it slowly, I can't trouble you with everything."

She looked at Li Xuewu and persuaded him with heartache: "I have heard that you have been busy recently, your workload has increased exponentially, and you have to find you for everything."

"Don't force yourself too much, the Rolling Mill supports so many cadres, not to eat dry rice. Push what should be pushed, let go of what should be let go, don't be too tired."

"Well, I know, it should be better in a while, it's just that there are many things this quarter."

Li Xuewu smiled and asked: "About the deputy general manager, do you have any opinions?"

"I have no opinions, I listen to the factory's arrangements. Having someone to share the work is naturally a good thing. I haven't been home for a month."

Zhang Songying said: "If there is really a cadre from the foreign affairs department seconded as deputy general manager, the International Hotel will be much more convenient in external business."

"Also, information collection work for employee learning can also be carried out smoothly."

The information collection she mentioned here is not special in the conventional sense.

Information can refer to materials useful for hotel management and service, or foreign journals and magazines that increase service quality, etc.

Li Xuewu has never arranged for Zhang Songying to engage in any special business at the International Hotel.

When Ji Weidong wanted to pull him to do it together, he didn't want to have a direct connection and involvement with the other party, so he wouldn't do those things in places like the International Hotel.

Of course, he doesn't do it, the Red Star Factory doesn't do it, it doesn't mean that the investigation department and other departments don't do it. Just what Zhang Songying knows, someone is collecting information on the residence and life of foreign affairs personnel in the International Hotel.

This point will be encountered in any hotel serving foreign countries in the mainland, so there is no need to make a fuss.

"The one temporarily contacted is Deputy Division Chief Zhou Gancheng who came with foreign businessmen tonight."

Li Xuewu exhorted Zhang Songying: "When the matter is settled, you communicate and contact him more. If there is foreign affairs work needs, you can mention it to him."

"Well, I understand."

Zhang Songying looked at Li Xuewu and asked tentatively: "I heard that our factory has recruited many college students this year. Is it convenient to arrange a few to practice and work at the International Hotel?"

"Why did you suddenly think of needing college students?"

Li Xuewu looked at her and said amusingly: "There are quite a few people who have made this request to me recently."

"The division chiefs of the technical department and the personnel department both said they wanted a few newly arrived college students to enrich the cadre reserve."

"Why?" He raised his eyebrows and asked: "Does the International Hotel also need to improve the cadre reserve?"

"Of course it is needed, everyone wants high-quality management talents."

Zhang Songying emphasized, and then explained helplessly: "The middle and high-level cadres of the International Hotel are all transferred from the factory."

"Business can be mastered and recognized through learning and training, but it is difficult to improve on this basis. After all, the foundation is here."

"Well, enterprises need to develop, and comprehensive strength needs to be comprehensively promoted."

Li Xuewu nodded and wrote the document: "I know your request. I will discuss it with Director Ding later, and see if I can select a few with matching majors from the university."

"Then thank you, Deputy Director Li."

Zhang Songying said thank you happily, and seeing Li Xuewu didn't care, she slid down from the chair and drilled under the office desk.

"Hiss—! Monster!"

The spring breeze of Jinmen still blew on the faces of the Rolling Mill group.

Coming out of the train station, Li Xuewu accompanied Li Huade and Jing Yunong and took a sedan.

Zhuang Cangshu, who came to pick them up at the station, didn't squeeze into this car, which was a bit disappointing.

Of course, this is also very normal. The leaders want to talk about work. Since they have come to Jinmen, he has plenty of time to report.

In the second Volga M24 sedan of the motorcade, Li Xuewu was talking about what happened last night.

Of course, it's not about Zhang Songying, but about Chantal and the other two French women.

Hiss—

Saying it like this seems easier to misunderstand...

"Since they withdrew from Annan, their influence in Southeast Asia is far less than before."

"It's been more than ten years, I still remember."

Li Huade nodded and said: "At that time, the newspapers were writing that it was the victory of the people."

This car came out relatively early. When Li Huade and the three, as well as the accompanying cadres and office personnel got on the car, they were still a bit sleepy.

Especially Li Huade's spirit was seriously insufficient. I don't know what bad things he did last night.

He had no spirit to listen to the report, and it was not appropriate to tell Jing Yunong alone.

So until just before getting off the car, Li Xuewu handed the report document that he "strongly" finished writing last night to Li Huade and Jing Yunong.

And after getting off the car, he continued to report and analyze the matter in more detail to the two.

"The thief heart is not dead, right?"

Li Huade looked at the report in his hand, and the sunlight outside the car window shone in, and he finally had some spirit.

Li Xuewu looked at him and was worried that he would die before he succeeded. Don't let the group goal be achieved, but the thunder hasn't been finished and people have been harmed.

To say that Zhou Miaomiao is also young and ignorant, doesn't she understand the hard truth of sustainable development?

With this body, if it weren't for quitting smoking and drinking tonic wine, wouldn't she have sucked him dry?

Should I add more to Old Li later?

This body has too many loopholes, plus one who doesn't know the depth is sucking, if the tonic dose is not increased, sooner or later he will be exhausted at the "work" post.

Director Li is really racking his brains and working hard, but don't die now.

You say let Li Xuewu manage Zhou Miaomiao?

How to manage, young, you manage people's normal things?

Why don't you send people to plug the missing loopholes?

"That's why I guessed that on the basis of overall foreign affairs relaxation cooperation, especially with the convenience of foreign affairs supervision business—"

Li Xuewu introduced: "They want to rebuild influence in Southeast Asia through industrial manufacturing and trade economic networks."

In fact, in Li Huade's view, this is very likely just Li Xuewu's guess and assessment of this matter and background relationship.

But in Li Xuewu's own determination, this is a fact.

Living in the 21st century, you know that it is the era of the Internet, but in the mid-20th century, this is still the world of industrial productivity and trade networks.

It can be said that whoever masters the right to world trade has the right to speak to the world.

This unwritten rule comes from the Age of Discovery. Information communication and commodity exchange completely rely on ship transportation.

Information communication and exchange have entered a stage of rapid development in recent years, which can be described as changing with each passing day.

But it cannot be defined as the information age of the 80s and 90s, because the convenience of information transmission at this time is far from reaching this requirement.

As far as the mainland is concerned, there are only more than 100,000 telephones in the whole country. Do you dare to say this is the information age?

In business contacts, the mainland and Hong Kong still need face-to-face communication and communication. Do you dare to say this is the information age?

Therefore, this period is currently in the dawn of the information age.

Of course, this is looking at stage problems from the perspective of history and cannot be imprinted in the brains of Li Huade and Jing Yunong.

But there is no doubt that production and trade will become the two most important economic pillars of this century, as Li Xuewu proposed in the report.

Think carefully.

Why did the WTO not allow the mainland to join until the 90s?

Think again, why do we actively want to join the WTO?

And after joining the WTO and ushering in rapid economic development, why did we actively form new economic cooperation organizations when national strength improved?

Joining the WTO, on the one hand, it must be said that we saw the necessity of foreign trade in economic development, so we paid great positivity and effort.

On the other hand, the influence of some countries in the WTO gradually shrank, and the obstacles to the mainland decreased with the improvement of national strength.

Finally, this cake has been eaten by them for decades, and production and trade powers have long consolidated their dominant position in the global economy.

So you say, when Chantal, that French woman, saw that the mainland has a highly rich industrial foundation and does not have foreign trade capacity, what did she think of?

Isn't this borrowing a chicken to lay eggs, which Li Xuewu often plays, and even is playing now?

In the past, he borrowed other people's chickens to lay eggs for himself. Now it is Chantal who wants to borrow a chicken from the Rolling Mill to lay eggs for her.

Chantal is a more ruthless character than Li Xuewu, because of her identity and the inherent advantages of international traders, she wants to borrow the Rolling Mill chicken to produce more, better, and cheaper eggs, driving Southeast Asian markets to give up local eggs, so that these countries will gradually rely on their trade network in the future.

Only by listening to them can they maintain the normal operation of industry and people's livelihood.

Great power game, in the sun, in the shade, when it is sunny, it is warm and gentle, when it is cloudy, it is also damaging enough.

Li Huade looked at the report in his hand and listened to his explanation. Anyway, he cursed in his heart.

That woman is really not a good person!

Then do you think her investment and payment to the mainland is good intentions?

Cultural commissioner Gema Roman and Chantal together expressed keen attention to the Rolling Mill's construction of a new era ecological industrial zone at the source of the Liangma River.

Chantal proposed that as a basis for cooperation and friendship, she will actively participate in the construction of this project, provide construction machinery and equipment, provide design and technology, and even funds.

Is this a manifestation of friendship?

Yes, of course, Li Xuewu also determined the other party's good intentions and kindness when reporting this point to Li Huade and Jing Yunong.

But if they are not of my kind, their hearts must be different.

Even if they are of the same kind, are their hearts together?

How many people on the Internet take a few dollars from foreign dads and dare to attack others wantonly? Do they really think the Internet is a place outside the law?

Foreign dads even shouted clearly that these people are cheap and slave-like. Some people even lowered their status for these few bones and treated this thing as a business.

Daring to sell their souls for a few dollars, daring to use evil words to hurt others for personal interests and enjoyment, do you say such people are humans or dogs?

Don't say you don't know, don't know the situation, they are all people who have completed nine-year compulsory education. If they don't know that scolding people is wrong, how is it different from a dog?

Li Xuewu maintains a skeptical attitude towards everyone, and even more so towards people like Chantal who enter the mainland with obvious interests.

The culture of a country entering another country can be described as exchange, or it can be described as invasion.

Using other people's machinery and equipment, you have to learn other people's operating specifications and processes.

Using other people's technology and design, you have to understand other people's cultural origins and characteristics.

Li Huade originally felt that Li Xuewu's analysis and judgment were a bit of a fuss.

But after his spirit recovered, his IQ also re-occupied the high ground. He remembered that Li Xuewu had never missed a shot, so he knew that he had to believe him this time.

Old Li has suffered losses in this regard. He didn't listen to Li Xuewu several times, and he suffered great crimes.

And after tasting the sweetness of listening to Li Xuewu's suggestions several times, he has become accustomed to asking Li Xuewu for everything, so he still attaches importance to his opinions this time.

"What about Comrade Yunong, let's talk."

Li Huade put down the document in his hand and said seriously: "Opportunity and danger coexist, which is truly reflected in foreign trade work."

"This is an inevitable result. I had expected it, but I didn't expect the angle of the other party's cut-in to be so tricky."

Jing Yunong flipped through the document and closed it, thought for a while and said: "This is not a simple sugar-coated bullet. Eat the sugar coating and hit the bullet back."

"Chantal wants to fully grasp the initiative and right to speak in cooperation."

She patted the document on her leg gently and said: "If I didn't guess wrong, she has been investigating the Rolling Mill's industrial production foundation, trade cooperation environment, and cooperation with other joint enterprises during this period."

"On this basis, she must have sufficient preparations, including various technologies, equipment, and professional services that can be provided."

Jing Yunong is like a fish seeing bait, hesitant and extremely difficult.

Li Huade let out a long breath, looked at Li Xuewu and asked calmly: "What do you think?"

"I have a dual attitude of cooperation and caution, hehe—"

Li Xuewu also knew the logical contradiction in his words, and explained with a smile: "The opportunity is rare, such cooperation should not be abandoned."

"I am also very hopeful that the Rolling Mill can complete this cooperation."

Jing Yunong interjected: "With a foundation for comprehensive development of light and heavy industry, with continuous foreign trade channels, and with financial cooperation connected with Hong Kong."

She looked at Li Xuewu and Li Huade and shook her head slightly and said: "If there is a more direct and powerful cooperative merchant on the basis of these many conveniences, our factory's development is truly taking off."

"Flying high and seeing far, but also more dangerous, after all, the feet are not touching the ground."

Li Xuewu looked at her and said: "This is what I want to say about caution. When facing cultural differences, communication differences, and even mutual trust differences and trade differences in the process of cooperation, we must treat them cautiously, otherwise it may cause disputes."

"Well, Chantal must have broken through the trade barriers of France for technology export through her own relationship, and now she is waiting for us to act."

Li Huade nodded and said: "I have one attitude about this matter. Cooperation is fine, but we can't suffer losses. I, Old Li, never do loss-making business."

After half a year of development and construction, the Jinmen Trade Management Center has taken shape.

Reasonable planning and construction have been comprehensively made from several aspects such as personnel, finance, and business.

Compared with the relatively solidified personnel system of the Rolling Mill, this is a new unit, naturally with a new atmosphere.

Li Huade and Jing Yunong both have high hopes for the Rolling Mill's trade work.

The person in charge of the Jinmen Trade Management Center is Zhuang Cangshu, the former deputy division chief of sales.

And the competent leader of the management center is Li Xuewu. Zhuang Cangshu reports work directly to Li Xuewu, which shows Li Huade's emphasis on this place.

In the Rolling Mill, those who can directly dialogue with Li Xuewu on business work are basically cadres at the group leader level.

Deputy group leader levels all report work to the group leader, so naturally they can't find Li Xuewu here.

And in the Jinmen Trade Management Center, Li Huade and Jing Yunong saw what the Rolling Mill would look like after completing the reform and innovation of office systems and financial systems in the future.

The commercial atmosphere here is stronger, breaking the traditional administrative management routine, completely serving trade itself, and serving joint units.

This is more like a real trade market created by the Rolling Mill.

In the joint office on the second floor, many cooperative units and enterprises have arranged personnel to be stationed here, responsible for public-to-public docking work.

The Trade Management Center provides them with office environment, accommodation, and dining service conditions, and provides guidance and help in trade cooperation.

Li Huade's group inspected the key departments of the Trade Management Center accompanied by Zhuang Cangshu and held a symposium with relevant staff.

The symposium of this era is essentially different from the "everyone is great" meeting of later generations.

At this time, factory employees really dare to make suggestions and requests to factory leaders.

Of course, you say they won't mention things like issuing more bath tickets and haircut tickets.

They are all young people with ideals and pursuits, wholeheartedly for the collective, and seeking progress and development for the unit.

The representatives participating in the symposium actively reported the work here to the leaders from the general factory and put forward valuable opinions on specific work.

For opinions with strong professionalism, at the meeting, Li Xuewu, as the competent leader, directly coordinated and communicated with the cadres of the management center to solve them.

And for extensive suggestions and opinions, Li Huade requested the management center office to register them well and to take these problems back to study them carefully.

Employees dare to mention and speak, and leaders dare to ask and do, which is the good prescription for enterprise development.

At noon, Li Huade took the initiative to refuse the welcome banquet arranged by Zhuang Cangshu, and took Jing Yunong and Li Xuewu and other Rolling Mill staff to the staff canteen for lunch.

It has to be said that the saying "rely on the mountain to eat the mountain, rely on the sea to eat the sea" is reasonable.

The most abundant meal in the Rolling Mill canteen should be pork or meat of other livestock.

Chicken and duck meat are generally unaffordable. Tens of thousands of people eat two chickens?

And in the staff canteen of the Jinmen Trade Management Center, fish and seafood are the most abundant meals.

Of course, even if it is close to the seaside, such ingredients are not many.

Fish meat is basically stewed in large pieces, and the portion in the lunch box is the size of a child's palm.

This is already higher than the treatment in the Rolling Mill. Braised pork with potatoes basically can't see meat, it's all braised potatoes.

Facts have proved that leaders don't always eat delicacies from the mountains and seas, and they can live with steamed buns and stir-fried dishes.

You say Li Huade likes to eat, in fact, in this year, the stomach lacks meat and everything is delicious, wishing to eat a calf in one bite.

It's not that there is nothing to eat, what can be eaten and what can be afforded is a symbol of identity.

And it can be arranged in reception, but it is impossible to eat big fish and meat in daily life.

A long table, sitting with the staff of the management center, and also sitting with the leaders from the factory.

Li Huade and Jing Yunong deliberately sat interspersed with the staff of the management center, obviously wanting to chat with everyone while eating and understand the situation here.

"The food standard of the management center is high~"

Li Huade smiled and said to several people at the same table: "It seems that your Director Zhuang has not asked for less treatment from Deputy Director Li!"

"Hahahaha—"

Several male and female employees at the same table laughed. They were basically selected from the Rolling Mill organs to work here, and they were naturally familiar with the names of Li Huade and Li Xuewu.

Even if there were trade backbones recruited and trained in the second phase, they were familiar with them during the two visits to Jinmen.

Plus the communication and exchange between employees, they basically know about the things in the factory.

Some young employees boldly asked Li Huade: "Leader, are you used to our canteen?"

As soon as this question was asked, Zhuang Cangshu's face stiffened, and the scene became quiet.

The employee who asked the question also found that he seemed to have caused trouble. That was not his original intention.

Li Huade didn't care about this. He had great patience and tolerance for grassroots cadres and employees.

"Why? Afraid that I will eat too well and don't want to leave? Hahahaha—"

He cleverly turned the direction of the question and answer, and the humorous words made everyone laugh.

"If you ask me, you can see the attitude and confidence of employees towards work from the problem of eating. If you eat well, you have motivation, right?"

He smiled and said to the employees at the same table, and then said to Li Xuewu's direction: "We must also work hard. Only when the Rolling Mill's canteen has the standard here is it the embodiment of the improvement of the factory's comprehensive strength."

"Director Li, can I ask you a question?"

A female comrade at the table next to her hesitated and raised her hand, asking tentatively: "Our factory is going to upgrade and move towards groupization. When will that be?"

Her question attracted the attention of the surrounding employees, who looked over one after another and listened carefully.

She asked again: "After our factory upgrades and completes the groupization process, what impact will it have on us?"

"This question is asked well." Li Huade nodded and said: "Being able to hear everyone care about the factory's promotion and groupization proves that our work is meaningful."

"Regarding the time of promotion and groupization process, we dare not say for sure, we can only cooperate with the department's arrangements and inspections."

He answered relatively cautiously: "But please believe that the comrades in the factory and I have the same urgent mood as everyone, and we are working actively together."

"And these two changes have an impact on everyone. I believe you have all organized learning of the three-year plan and five-year plan documents, right?"

Li Huade smiled and looked at Zhuang Cangshu, making the other party under great pressure.

Several employees nodded in agreement, proving that the documents were indeed learned, but some people didn't learn them solidly.

He explained: "The reason why we want to improve the management level on the basis of the Rolling Mill's management structure and set up a more convenient and scientific management organization is to better create a grand industrial blueprint for the new era and new period."

"You are all employees of the Rolling Mill and a member of this big family. Our family business is big, our children are adults, and they have the ability to maintain their livelihood. They have to separate and live alone, right?"

The surrounding employees looked at him thoughtfully, and the smart ones already understood.

"Is it not a family after separating and living alone? Of course not, we will always be a family!"

Li Huade's voice was generous and powerful, without any fatigue from the morning.

He said: "Separating and living alone is to better create soil and space for children to live and let everyone develop better."

After seeing everyone suddenly enlightened, Li Huade joked: "The Jinmen Trade Management Center is the child that the Rolling Mill is about to become an adult. When the child is big and there are many children, the parents have to build a bigger house to shelter them from the wind and rain."

"Now everyone understands why we want to upgrade and why we want to set up a group company."

"Thank you, Director Li—"

"Thank you, Director Li—"

After the canteen scene was quiet, there was a burst of warm applause and words of thanks.

Li Huade smiled and waved to them: "The Trade Management Center is the child of the Rolling Mill, and you are the children of the management center."

He said sincerely: "I only have one requirement for everyone, that is to eat well and work well. Thank you all."

Warm applause sounded again in the canteen.

And during the meal of the factory leaders, people occasionally raised some questions.

According to the business plan, Li Huade and Jing Yunong answered them respectively. Li Xuewu didn't grab this limelight. It was unnecessary and meaningless.

When they came out of the restaurant at noon, there were still many employees coming to say hello, which left a very good impression on Li Huade.

Zhuang Cangshu ate this meal like chewing wax, didn't taste any flavor at all, just worried about whether the leaders were satisfied.

Li Xuewu also knew that he was a bit too cautious and careful, and didn't criticize or correct him too much on this matter.

No matter how close Jinmen is to the capital, it is a two-hour drive. It is better for the person in charge arranged here to be cautious and careful.

After all, it is close to the seaside, the wind is urgent and the waves are big, it would be bad if the boat capsized again.

The Trade Management Center is considered the core interest point of the three Li Huade people. Moving from the Rolling Mill to Jinmen is just to seek stability. ===== CHAPTER 1067 =====
