Chapter 1151: Cousin and Cousin

~33 min read 6,514 words

"Old Kong, what do you think of this?"

As soon as they came out of Li Xuewu's office, Deputy Chief Engineer Qiu Guanlin asked eagerly, "If we do it like this, then we..."

"What are you in such a hurry for—"

Kong Xiaobo frowned and glared at him, looking back at Li Xuewu's office.

This was to remind the other party not to forget where they were standing and to be cautious when speaking.

Qiu Guanlin also saw his reminder, but even after reacting, he still couldn't help but feel depressed. This is the Red Star Factory; where can he hide?

Even their organizational relationships are going to be settled in the Red Star Factory; where can they say this?

"Man is the knife and the chopping board, I am the fish and the meat"; the four of them felt quite deeply about this sentence.

"Don't say it, don't say anything."

Deputy Director Bai Guangming sighed and said, "Don't you see what this means? Let's call it 'new emperor, new courtiers'."

He gestured to the office behind him. Shangguan Qi, who came with them, didn't follow out; she was just left alone by Li Xuewu.

What does it mean?

They are all members of the 701 technical team, and they are still Shangguan Qi's leaders.

What words are there that cannot be said in front of them? It's nothing more than dividing and disintegrating.

These old people occupy management positions, leaving no way out for young people.

Now changing gates, the team is split, and the power structure is reshuffled.

Young people use various means to get to the top, emerging one after another; they really don't talk about "martial virtue."

Actually, by this time, before coming to Li Xuewu's office, they had already noticed it.

It's very simple; Li Xuewu's attitude in handling this matter changed after Shangguan Qi followed Xia Zhongquan to Li Xuewu's place.

That is to say, during this period, something must have happened to cause the 701 project team to fail during the negotiations with the Bingfei Factory leaders.

The initiator is inevitably Shangguan Qi.

Reviewing the whole thing, the one who managed to protect her family and wanted to jump out of that circle was only her.

As of now, their impression and attitude towards Shangguan Qi in their hearts have long changed.

It's not to say how bad it is, but there are no good words popping up in their minds.

When they were standing on the sidelines, they were all cold-eyed and sarcastic.

When this storm really affected them, they were even more dissatisfied with Shangguan Qi to the extreme.

Especially these managers, leaving the Bingfei Factory where they had worked for many years, they became rootless duckweeds, and everything had to start over.

Young people, of course, don't care; changing an environment and changing a team might give them more opportunities to start over.

So it's not entirely complete; after Bingfei Factory's Deputy Director Lu announced the negotiation results, the 701 project team had certain differences.

Young people were dazzled by the Red Star Factory's wealthy and perfect welfare system and had infinite yearning for the prosperity of Beijing.

Different from the old comrades' attachment to home, they had more sympathy and understanding for Shangguan Qi.

Just looking at the attitudes of the four managers, one can know how great the influence of this difference is.

"If you want to listen to my opinion, then I only have one opinion."

Walking out of the Security Building, walking on the road back to the guesthouse, with no one around, Kong Xiaobo frowned and opened his mouth.

In the eyes of the other three who were confused and helpless, he said, "Actively cooperate and obey the leader."

"Old Kong—"

Qiu Guanlin called out. Seeing that Kong Xiaobo was also helpless, he could only sigh long and shake his head at the guesthouse at the end of the road.

This Red Star Factory is really like a flood beast; once you enter, don't even think about getting out.

It's just as Deputy Director Lu said: from the moment the 701 sent the consultation letter, people were calculating them. Otherwise, how could they get the detailed information of these people, including their main family members, and coordinate them to Beijing together?

Of course, that list only included spouses and minor children.

Relatives who are already adults and participating in work are not included in the list of transferred personnel.

The Red Star Factory has to organize such a large technical team relocation, and it also costs a lot.

How much is a professional technical person worth? It was already calculated on Li Xuewu's abacus long ago.

Hmm, someone in the Red Star Factory said that Li Deputy Director's abacus is better than the old accountants in the Finance Division. The abacus beads are flying horizontally.

Pitter-patter, they are always taking advantage and never suffer a loss.

Bingfei Factory isn't all fools either. This matter can only be said to be a coincidence; one step wrong, every step wrong, wrong to the point of no return.

First, Bingfei Factory wrongly estimated the strength of the Red Star Factory and wrongly judged the Red Star Factory's purpose in the cooperation.

What "only focusing on the research and manufacturing field of civilian aircraft"—it's all a lie!

The people in this pass are cunning; Bingfei Factory investigated in detail after Deputy Director Lu came to Beijing. The Red Star Factory even has its own arms manufacturing factory, and the sniper rifles and individual equipment produced are sold overseas.

Do you dare to say you are a manufacturer focusing on civilian goods? I believe you, ghost!

No matter how smooth and pleasant the cooperation is, how can it be as fragrant as doing the project yourself?

That's what the Red Star Factory thinks. Swallowing the 701 technical team, relying on the KH-4 aircraft production line to engage in two-way scientific research, directly through the First Ministry of Machine-Building, negotiating procurement with the Third Ministry of Machine-Building—isn't this more appropriate than bypassing Bingfei Factory? Why should the credit be shared?

So it was wrong from the beginning. The Red Star Factory engaging in cooperation negotiations and agreements, and engaging in joint technical research institutes, is all bullshit.

Bingfei Factory's second-stage mistake was internal disunity, producing bastards and traitors, which led to today's irreversible situation, allowing the Red Star Factory to grasp their soft underbelly in one go.

Regarding this, Lu Da Ke also made a self-criticism when talking to Kong Xiaobo and others.

Knowing clearly that there were unstable factors in the team, for the sake of training young people (selfishness), he wrongly arranged technical personnel like Zhu Lei, whose thinking was immature, into the team.

When talking, Kong Xiaobo expressed understanding. What's the use of him not understanding?

Things have already happened, and they have all been sold. Can this project still be saved?

Zhu Lei is just an insignificant technical member in the 701 project team. Who doesn't know what qualifications he has to participate in the team list for coming to Beijing to prepare for cooperation and technical inspection?

Shangguan Qi is, of course, qualified. Zhu Lei has this virtue in the factory; he finally embraced the beauty and held on tight, not daring to relax.

Hearing that he was coming to Beijing and going abroad for inspection, he was even more desperate to follow.

Who let him have connections at home? The leaders were taking care of him, so he had to be on the list.

Lu Da Ke made self-criticism to Kong Xiaobo and expressed his attitude. His posture was very low, just to unify his caliber with him and not to talk nonsense when going back.

This matter ends here. Zhu Lei will return to Bingfei Factory after the joint investigation team issues a conclusion. Except for him, the 701 technical team will all be transferred to the Red Star Factory.

Knowing that these people are bitter in their hearts and aggrieved by being sold while kept in the dark, Lu Da Ke naturally said all the good things and lowered his attitude.

"Forgive others when you can"; his own relatives and family members still have to work in Bingfei Factory, and they will be useful sooner or later. Kong Xiaobo naturally understands this principle.

Therefore, Lu Da Ke's attitude was low, and they could only sigh behind their backs.

The road was blocked by others. If Bingfei Factory doesn't throw them out, do they want the joint investigation team to go to Bingfei Factory for in-depth investigation?

At this point in time, in this period, let alone Lu Da Ke not daring to agree, even Bingfei Factory wouldn't dare to be tough; they are the ones in the wrong.

As of now, how can they not see that the Red Star Factory has the intention to enter the aircraft research field and has goals for the broader arms market, but it is just very cautious in foreign trade and always wants to keep appearances.

As for how to achieve direct supply to the Third Ministry of Machine-Building in the future, that is not something they can think of, but it is not very difficult, right?

Some necessary components are produced, assembled outside; who can say the Red Star Factory is wrong?

"Old Kong, I don't understand—"

Chief Engineer Shi Zhiyuan is a taciturn person. At this moment, he asked with his hands behind his back while walking, "The joint operation they said before, it was very vivid, and they even said they contacted the Fengfei Factory."

"Do you believe them?" Qiu Guanlin asked with his beard blowing and eyes wide open, "Do you still believe them?"

"It's not necessarily true, and it's not necessarily false. Let's watch slowly later."

Kong Xiaobo didn't speak. Bai Guangming said in a desolate tone, "Fengfei originally didn't have a helicopter project; what can they cooperate on?"

"Maybe it's engine technology, maybe it's other related parts production business."

Kong Xiaobo opened his mouth at this time, "It's not entirely a facade; it's possible it's true."

"Anyway, we were deceived—"

Qiu Guanlin said angrily, "I don't know how they plan to arrange us. If it doesn't satisfy me, then..."

"Then what?"

Kong Xiaobo looked at him and asked, "Do you still want to make trouble? Don't you think this matter is big enough?"

"What do you think of yourself? You made contributions to the organization in Bingfei Factory; isn't it the same in the Red Star Factory? Isn't the Red Star Factory an organization's factory?"

"Think about it carefully—"

"Sing the song of the mountain you are on; I don't need to teach you this principle."

Li Xuewu put down the teacup in his hand, looked at the slightly restrained Shangguan Qi, and said, "You are still colleagues, still comrades."

"Don't have psychological burdens, and don't have negative emotions. Everything is for the needs of the organization and the needs of the scientific research project."

Just when she was left alone, Shangguan Qi clearly had emotional fluctuations.

Especially when Xia Zhongquan came in, it seemed like she had done something wrong.

When Kong Xiaobo and others left, she looked like she had done something guilty.

"I have already done what I promised you. The rest depends on your performance."

This was said in the office, in front of Xia Zhongquan; otherwise, it would make people think crookedly, especially with Li Xuewu's face.

"Leader, I still don't understand what you mean. I don't know..."

Shangguan Qi hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Xuewu, and asked, "What do you want me to do?"

"Do you have any understanding of the drone field?"

Li Xuewu asked straight to the point, "For example, the 'Chang Kong 1' from previous years."

"Are you talking about unmanned target drones?"

Shangguan Qi was stunned for a moment, not expecting Li Xuewu's thinking to jump so much.

"I have seen its relevant materials. I don't know what you are talking about..."

No wonder she hesitated. The Red Star Factory's helicopter scientific research project team hadn't even landed yet, and suddenly a drone came.

And this drone is not the same thing as a helicopter. "Chang Kong 1" is a target drone.

That is to say, this thing is mainly a flying bomb or used as a target for training.

For example, foreign "aerial torpedoes" and "Kettering Bugs" are this kind of aircraft.

But obviously, the Red Star Factory, which has the foundation of helicopter production and research, cannot go far to engage in another track.

"I am a layman in terms of aircraft and remote sensing technology."

Li Xuewu said very seriously, "But the drone technology I understand mainly requires remote control and telemetry technology, flight control and navigation technology, etc. You should be an expert."

He sat up straight, looked at Shangguan Qi, and asked, "Do you know the Firebee drone?"

"I know, it was a project ten years ago. I understood it when I was in the United States."

Shangguan Qi nodded affirmatively and said, "But that is a turbojet drone."

"Right, it's a turbojet."

Li Xuewu said, "What I understand is that it not only has the function of identifying various air-to-air and surface-to-air weapon systems, but can also be used to train fighter pilots and air defense forces."

"Moreover, some of its variants can also perform reconnaissance, electronic warfare, flight tests, carry bombs or missiles for ground attacks, and other tasks."

"You are... where did you learn... I mean these..."

Shangguan Qi was a bit confused. She didn't expect how Li Xuewu thought of engaging in drones.

And it's a turbojet one. This thing doesn't seem to have any economic prospects.

"Listen to me finish—"

Li Xuewu frowned slightly, tapped the sofa armrest, didn't answer her question, but continued, "Jet aircraft can achieve unmanned flight; can helicopters achieve unmanned operation?"

"Relying on light helicopters, compressing volume, increasing power, modular production."

He put forward his requirements somewhat vaguely, and it was very general, but the goal was very clear: unmanned helicopters.

This turn made Shangguan Qi confused again; why did it go around again?

"You are very familiar with the 701 team. I will give you an authority; you choose the people yourself."

Li Xuewu pointed at her and instructed, "The team must have vigor, sharpness, and courage. They must have the ambition to make breakthroughs in blank areas. I am responsible for the funds; you just manage the research."

"And I won't urge you. As long as you are willing to work hard, I will give you technology if you want technology, and equipment if you want equipment. You know me; I keep my word."

"But—"

Shangguan Qi was a bit overwhelmed by the sudden heavy burden. She asked, "Why do you want to engage in helicopter unmanned operation?"

"In terms of speed, it's not as fast as a jet; in terms of function, whether it's reconnaissance or a target drone, or even carrying bombs, it's not as excellent as a jet."

"In specific combat environments and usage environments, what helicopters can do, jet aircraft may not necessarily be able to do."

Li Xuewu pointed his finger at the sky and then at the ground, emphasizing, "Compared with fixed-wing drones, unmanned helicopters can take off and land vertically, hover in the air, and fly in any direction."

"They require small takeoff and landing sites and do not need to be equipped with complex, large-volume launch and recovery systems like fixed-wing drones."

He is not as ignorant of aircraft design as he says, and can even speak clearly and logically.

Shangguan Qi had always thought that Li Xuewu was an administrative cadre, a person who grew up in the security system and possessed more ability and background.

It's just that she didn't expect him to have such a perspective and vision in the professional field of aircraft.

"You should know the specific role."

Li Xuewu glanced at her and said, "In military terms, unmanned helicopters can perform various non-lethal tasks and various soft and hard lethal tasks."

"Including reconnaissance, surveillance, target acquisition, decoys, attacks, communication relay, etc."

"In civilian terms, the roles in atmospheric monitoring, traffic monitoring, resource exploration, power line inspection, forest fire prevention, etc., don't need me to say more."

He pointed his finger and emphasized, "While ensuring excellent performance, the smaller the volume, the better, and the lower the cost, the better."

"The training cost of one pilot is enough for me to raise one hundred drone pilots."

Li Xuewu nodded slowly, looked at Shangguan Qi, who was thinking deeply, and asked, "Why? Do you have the confidence to take on this task?"

"Guarantee to complete the task—"

Shangguan Qi is still young and vigorous. After Li Xuewu's explanation, she also knows that this is a secret project of the Red Star Factory.

Looking at her standing up and responding very seriously, Li Xuewu and Xia Zhongquan both laughed.

He waved his hand, signaling Shangguan Qi to sit down.

"I know this is a blank area, and you have no direction in design ideas."

Li Xuewu smiled and waved, signaling Peng Xiaoli to take the documents on the desk.

He said while taking the documents, "I don't understand aircraft design, but I know a little about car design. You are the expert in this area."

"Actually, I can hear that you are very knowledgeable about aircraft, Leader."

Shangguan Qi smiled modestly and signaled to the bookshelf, "I saw you reading books about aircraft. You spoke very well."

She looked at Xia Zhongquan again and said, "We who engage in technical research have limitations in our thinking. If you can give us inspiration, that would be the best."

Li Xuewu was asking the secretary for documents, yet his mouth was saying he didn't understand design; that must be modesty.

You see, he just said he didn't understand aircraft, but he spoke logically when explaining the project direction.

Especially his grasp and understanding of key aircraft technologies are quite accurate.

"That is indeed the case. Our Li Deputy Director knows more than a little about car design."

Xia Zhongquan knocked on the side and flattered, "The cars and motorcycles produced by our factory were designed by Li Deputy Director, combining practicality and aesthetics."

"Is that so—"

Shangguan Qi tidied the hair by her ear, her gaze moved to Li Xuewu, with an expression of "I guessed it right," and said, "I heard long ago that the Red Star Factory has its own car factory and motorcycle factory."

"It's just that I didn't expect the designer to be right in front of me. I really had eyes but didn't recognize Taishan."

Hmph, hmph—

Xia Zhongquan snorted softly in his heart. You didn't see Taishan; seeing it would scare you!

Finally, a newcomer has arrived; Li Xuewu will no longer be able to wreak havoc on him alone.

Quick! Soul designer, hurry up and take out your masterpiece to let the young people gain some knowledge.

Otherwise, they don't know the immensity of heaven and earth, thinking that all leaders play the "humble face-slapping" routine.

Why did he praise Li Xuewu?

For one, these are all facts. Although his achievements and work are involved, Li Xuewu did design the appearance, and it does look good.

Secondly, he is also bad. In Li Xuewu's office, he naturally couldn't tear down the stage, and he also wanted to see what the reaction of others would be when they met a designer like Li Xuewu.

Thirdly, he still has a request for Li Xuewu; the matter of his niece Wang Lu hasn't been mentioned yet, and it might be mentioned today.

If it really succeeds, then they will be in-laws in the future; how can he tear down the stage?

Therefore, he praised and encouraged while signaling Li Xuewu to hurry up and use his big move.

"What Taishan or not; I just have some ideas for your reference."

Li Xuewu smiled modestly and placed the first drawing in front of Shangguan Qi.

"Regarding unmanned helicopters, I have two design ideas and plans."

Li Xuewu didn't care about Shangguan Qi's reaction and said directly, "One is a large drone, and one is a small drone."

"The large drone will be based on the current light helicopter; it can't be any bigger."

"For the small drone, just do reconnaissance and precision strikes; naturally, the smaller, the better."

He put out the second design drawing and introduced, "It's not too small if it's as big as a coffee table; it's the ultimate goal if it's as big as a shoebox."

Shangguan Qi: "..."

What is this?

She looked blankly at the so-called design drawings in front of her, listening to the leader's enthusiastic introduction, and was confused.

She had studied aircraft manufacturing for many years, and so much knowledge failed at this moment.

Her brain was blank—

She even started to doubt if she was dreaming; what are these things?

Small airplane? Spaceship?

"This... Leader..."

Seeing that Li Xuewu had finished speaking, she reminded him hesitatingly, "Did you take the wrong one?"

Shangguan Qi felt that it must be that the leader's child was naughty and swapped the files.

The leader didn't pay attention when explaining to her and took it out.

Actually, it's nothing; there are quite a few naughty children at this time.

Look at this drawing; it's quite cute. It looks like a child's drawing at first glance.

"Hmm? What did I take wrong?"

Li Xuewu frowned slightly, looked at her, and asked, "Do you have any questions?"

"I mean..."

Shangguan Qi was about to explain when she saw Xia Zong, who was sitting on the side, pick up the two paintings on the coffee table.

"Hmm, this one has a soul; hmm, this one has a forward-looking thinking."

Xia Zhongquan nodded approvingly, looked at Li Xuewu, and praised, "Li Deputy Director, your level has indeed improved again."

"Where, where—"

Li Xuewu smiled modestly, waved his hand, and said, "It's still you, Xia Zong."

Are you guys sick—

What are these things, and you're already flattering each other!

Shangguan Qi was completely confused; she didn't know what Xia Zhongquan saw from these two paintings.

This is clearly a child's scribbling; how can it have a soul, how can it...

She suddenly turned her head, stared into Li Xuewu's eyes, and really wanted to slap herself.

I am definitely not dreaming, but the situation in front of me is too absurd.

Oh my, look at the first painting; what is on the tail of the helicopter?

Is it the little tail of a fire dragon?

Is this the "witty as a demon" in the mouth of Deputy Director Lu of Bingfei Factory? Is this the young cadre who calculated the 701 team?

How did it become child's play at this moment, and even the honest and honest Xia Zong started flattering.

Where am I, who am I, what am I doing!

Isn't the task I just received to study drones? Is it like this... right?

"She is still young and lacks training; she will be fine slowly."

Looking at Shangguan Qi, who left in a daze, Xia Zhongquan smiled.

Just now, he used Li Xuewu's pencil to quickly outline the contours on the paper.

Under Li Xuewu's guidance, he readjusted and arranged it, and the new design was born.

Of course, the first design was Li Xuewu's; without guiding ideology, how could he understand and design it.

"I was teasing her; did you take it seriously?"

Li Xuewu glanced at him and asked with a smile, "What do you think of her? Does she have potential? Is she worth investing in?"

"That depends on how you look at it—"

Xia Zhongquan drank a mouthful of hot tea and said with a smile, "If you have high standards and strict requirements, and put forward such advanced design concepts every time."

"I think whoever is responsible for this project will be under pressure."

He put down the teacup, looked at Li Xuewu, and said, "I don't think you were teasing her."

"Although I am not a design expert in aircraft, I still understand some theories."

Xia Zhongquan tapped the first version of the design draft on the table and emphasized, "Your thinking is indeed unusual; I couldn't think of it no matter what."

Of course, he was talking about the second one, although these two were crumpled up and thrown into the paper basket, and no one picked them up.

The first one can only be said to be a shape, telling Shangguan Qi which direction to exert effort in.

The second one is a bit interesting. When he explained the design ideas to Shangguan Qi, it was obvious that this girl was going to die.

She was almost played to death by Li Xuewu.

If you say Li Xuewu understands design, what is this thing he drew for you?

But if you say he doesn't understand design, whether it's what he talked about or what he designed, they all have specific directions and research value.

Coming and going like this, he made this young aircraft expert doubt life.

She is not a fool, and naturally can see that the core design is in the second one, like the spaceship one.

Small drone, as big as a coffee table; thinking of this, her brain buzzed.

If it can achieve lightweight, low cost, and high standards, this is undoubtedly a battlefield killer.

Whether it is reconnaissance or bombing, it is something that helicopters cannot do at present.

Just like Li Xuewu said, the training cost of one qualified pilot is enough to raise one hundred drone pilots.

Is this talking about the training cost of professional talents?

Of course not!

Li Xuewu is saying that one pilot can only control one expensive aircraft.

But what if it's a drone?

What is the effect of building one hundred drones for the price of one helicopter?

Covering the sky and earth, like a swarm of locusts, leaving nothing behind; just thinking about it makes one feel terrible.

Cost, cost, Li Xuewu has always been emphasizing cost; he really is heading towards this goal.

Because she knows very well the requirements of war for logistics and cost.

Xia Zhongquan sat on the side and listened, naturally understanding the meaning in Li Xuewu's words.

He doesn't know if this thing exists outside, but it is really a blank in the country.

Just look at Shangguan Qi's performance, and you know that even if it exists outside, it is rarely seen.

Therefore, if the Red Star Factory can really open a breakthrough in this field, then this helicopter production line will be truly valuable.

Based on the Red Star Factory's current production model, it's like assembling motorcycles, 500 yuan each, no!

Drones are of course more expensive, 1,000 yuan each. Even if it's 1,000 yuan each, one KH-4 helicopter is enough to buy nearly two hundred.

Don't look at Li Xuewu sometimes being unreliable and always teasing them, but this is also a means.

When you think he is joking, this might be a trap.

Just look at the state of Shangguan Qi, who was confused by Li Xuewu, and you will know.

Fell into the pit, pulled out, pushed into the pit again, picked up again, dying and living.

Does the young returnee, the excellent designer, still have that hidden arrogance and pettiness?

This is Li Xuewu, always catching you off guard; he was also impossible to guard against before.

Later, he became smart. "If you have no desire, you are strong"; you say anything, I believe it. I surrender!

Jianghu rules: if you lie on the ground, you can't continue to be beaten. I have already "lain flat."

"Stop flattering me—"

Li Xuewu glanced at him and asked with a smile, "Did Wang Lu go home and discuss it with her parents?"

"I asked for you; my sister-in-law agreed and said she wanted to see him."

"What is Wang Lu's attitude? You saw it that day, right—"

Xia Zhongquan shook his head helplessly and said, "Children are grown up; once they are grown, they are all children's debts. Parents are destined to worry and suffer."

"After talking to you that day, I went back and talked to her parents."

He was also full of melancholy and said, "Actually, a young man like Zhao Yajun is quite good."

"Honest and down-to-earth, has upward motivation, and the important thing is to live a proper life."

Xia Zhongquan took a sip of hot tea and said, "Young people nowadays, heh—"

"What's wrong with young people nowadays?"

Li Xuewu raised his head and reminded him, "I am also a young person."

"You? You'd better forget it—"

Xia Zhongquan pursed his lips and said, "You are not representative and have no comparability."

"I am talking about the values and outlook on life of young people nowadays."

He tilted his head and said, "Young people in the workshop haven't caused you less trouble, right?"

"This is still looking at them from the perspective of security. What about marriage?"

Xia Zhongquan put down the teacup, let out a long breath, and said, "Take Wang Lu for example. We know the roots and the bottom; you know the girl is just a bit silly."

"But what is the situation outside? Don't you know without me saying it?"

He rubbed his face and said, "Actually, after mentioning it to you, I regretted it a bit."

"Young, everyone makes mistakes; can you beat them to death with one stick?"

Li Xuewu flipped through the documents and said, "I am also a young person, and I have been young and frivolous."

"I understand the thoughts of young people very well; it's nothing more than unwillingness and following the crowd."

He twisted his fountain pen and said, "I told my sister-in-law about her situation. It still depends on whether the two of them get along. As for the influence—"

"Life is your own. Whether the shoes fit the feet, you have to feel it yourself. What do you think?"

"If you say so, I feel much better. I've been feeling quite embarrassed."

Xia Zhongquan smiled and said, "Of course I hope this matter succeeds; we will be in-laws in the future."

"Hey—"

Li Xuewu glanced at him and emphasized jokingly, "Address by position in the unit!"

"Hahahaha—"

From Monday, the Red Star Factory Security Group, under Li Xuewu's command and requirements, took targeted actions against the recent public security situation of factory workers.

The Propaganda Division and Personnel Division cooperated to enter workshops, enter units, catch typical examples, and catch advanced ones.

The Security Section arranged several drill actions. After soliciting the opinions of the branch bureau, it launched patrol actions again in the main residential areas of factory workers.

Different from last December, the number, equipment, vehicles, and image of the guard team have been upgraded.

One Antelope patrol car paired with ten motorcycles as a patrol group, and one signal light command vehicle paired with four groups achieved full-coverage security for the main residential areas.

When the guard team, holding Type 56 rifles, wearing combat uniforms, and wearing steel helmets, appeared in the residential area, the public security environment in the Dongcheng District became much clearer.

Not only that, the Security Section, together with the branch bureau, selected a part of advanced young workers from the factory to form a team of public security inspectors, who carried out auxiliary patrols in key areas after dinner and before ten o'clock.

Of course, you can't count on these young workers to solve the problems, but mobilizing workers to participate in security actions can not only play a leading role but also play a role in supervision and propaganda.

Only they are the people who best understand the ideological dynamics in the young worker team.

Once there is any disturbance, the Security Section this time is no longer "blindly touching an elephant"; it is fixed-point investigation, fixed-point removal, and fixed-point arrest.

Li Huai De is determined; he does not allow the Red Star Factory to show its head this time.

The long-ill Trade Union Chairman Xiong Bencheng came out to work.

His task is very simple: the factory security division is responsible for catching, and they are responsible for opening (the meeting/disciplinary action); one-stop service.

As long as workers participate in fighting and brawling incidents, no matter who they are, they will be fired without exception.

For this reason, the trade union organized worker representatives, who could pass the audit at any time. You get caught on the first day, and you can be fired on the second day.

This efficiency is quite fast, quite decisive, and it is very straightforwardly promoted to the workers.

If you have hot-headed thoughts, you must be prepared to lose your job.

Wednesday afternoon, after Li Xuewu finished his work, accompanied by Peng Xiaoli, he got into the command vehicle and headed straight to the Beijing Railway Station.

According to the schedule, Li Xuewu will arrive in Jinmen tonight and will go to the Trade Management Center tomorrow morning to inspect and guide work, and at the same time meet with Andrew, the boss of Jilixing Shipping, who is waiting there.

Actually, Li Xuewu should go to Jinmen once a week, but there is too much work to get away.

He is the leader in charge of the Trade Management Center and can only be remotely controlled by phone.

Of course, the frequency of once a week is impossible to complete, but once a month is still possible.

The reason why there is no need to worry that going once a month will cause problems is because Li Huai De often goes to Jinmen, and every time he goes, he will go to the Trade Management Center to turn around.

Don't ask what Old Li is doing; if you ask, it's work. It's that responsible!

At Li Xuewu's level, there is no possibility of opening a special carriage, but there can be a sleeper.

But it's only a two-hour journey, and he didn't bother with that trouble, just asked the train conductor for two soft seats.

It's not that his work permit isn't at the level, but when boarding at the station, the station leader sent him up, which was enough for the train conductor to treat him cautiously.

Soft sleepers are scarce resources, controlled by the train conductor, and can be cashed out.

Like this kind of short distance, and during the day, Li Xuewu knows what they are afraid of.

So when he proposed to have soft seats, the train conductor also thanked him repeatedly and even served hot tea.

This trip is not a train in the Beijing section; otherwise, one look at his work permit would reveal who he is.

Got on the train after three o'clock in the afternoon, arrived in Jinmen after five o'clock, and was picked up by the management center.

A Volga M24 was parked under the platform, attracting frequent glances from people at the exit.

Seeing a young cadre brought out by Li Xuewu, the office director who picked him up took the initiative to greet him.

Li Xuewu waved his hand, signaling him not to exchange pleasantries here, and then got into the car together.

Seeing that the high-end sedan was picking up a young cadre, people at the exit discussed privately, wondering whose son it was.

Li Xuewu didn't criticize the office director, nor did he ask for an ordinary vehicle next time.

He is the leader in charge of the management center; if they don't use this car to come here, how can they pick up others.

This car was given to him by Li Huai De, but he felt it was too ostentatious in Beijing.

So he asked Li Huai De to arrange it in Jinmen for the reception of the Trade Management Center.

On weekdays, when Li Huai De comes to Jinmen, he also uses this car to travel, which is very convenient.

Old Li is such a shrewd person; hearing that Li Xuewu is coming to Jinmen, he won't come.

A few probes were enough to understand Li Xuewu's thoughts; there is no need to crowd together.

The office director asked him if he needed to go to the management center to take a look; Li Xuewu refused.

Let him send himself directly to the foreign-style house.

It's already this time; the management center is about to get off work, so what's the point of going there to pull eggs (waste time).

He hates leaders who come to inspect work at the time of getting off work the most. You tell me, should I leave or not?

If I leave, you say I don't understand things; if I don't leave, I'm losing money by acting with you here.

Therefore, Li Xuewu wouldn't be the villain; there is no such way to conduct a surprise inspection.

Seeing that the leader was so understanding of everyone, the smile on the office director's face became much thicker.

He is also someone who knows how to do things. Knowing that there is a gap between himself and Li Xuewu, he took the initiative to chat with Peng Xiaoli, mainly introducing the situation.

It's called docking work, but it's actually probing Li Xuewu's purpose and goals for this trip.

The last time he raised a butcher's knife in Steel City and "kacha" (killed) two people, the power of deterrence had already spread to Jinmen, and they were all very afraid of Li Xuewu.

Especially Li Xuewu's consistent way of not playing cards according to common sense, often catching people off guard.

Management Center Director Zhuang Cangshu is at the same level as Li Xuewu, but he is still polite when seeing him and dare not put on airs or attitudes.

Peng Xiaoli has been with Li Xuewu for a long time and is an old slippery person; of course, he won't talk nonsense.

While giving pressure to the other party, he also indicated that the leader's trip belongs to normal work.

The vehicle soon arrived at the entrance of the foreign-style house. The driver was familiar with the road; it seems Li Huai De used it often.

Li Xuewu went straight into the courtyard on the right after getting off the car and didn't exchange pleasantries with the office director.

And Peng Xiaoli was the same, just nodded to the other party and carried his luggage into the courtyard.

How dare the office director stay here for long; he got in the car and left, all in one go.

He had seen that cousin of Director Li, so he didn't dare to see the cousin of Deputy Director Li again. ===== CHAPTER 1152 =====

The office director didn't dare stay here a moment longer; he got into the car and left, all in one smooth motion.

He had met that cousin of Director Li's, and he certainly didn't dare see Deputy Director Li's cousin again.
