Chapter 1172: One fence, three stakes

~35 min read 6,853 words

"Deputy Director Li, congratulations—"

Fluent Chinese with a hint of seaweed flavor; Li Xuewu didn't need to look back to know who it was.

"Oh my, Miss Mikami!"

He turned around and said with feigned surprise: "Your Chinese is getting better and better!"

Seeing that Mikami Yua was alone, he exaggeratedly praised: "I can almost no longer hear the difference!"

"You are really too polite—"

Mikami Yua shyly raised her hand to cover her small mouth, but exposed her bright "headlights" to shine high beams at Li Xuewu.

Hiss—the headlights are really white, dazzling.

In Beijing, foreigners are easy to distinguish; besides skin color and facial features, there is also clothing.

Even if they had learned the dress requirements here before entering the interior, after being in the interior for a period of time, these rules would relax.

Moreover, the Foreign Affairs Department itself didn't have stricter requirements for them, as long as they didn't streak on the street.

Okay, that's a bit absolute; miniskirts and small vests are also not allowed.

Foreigners generally dress in bright colors and are fashionable and avant-garde, always able to attract eyeballs.

The Red Star Factory holding an event, or an economic and trade event, inevitably had to invite cooperative foreign businessmen to come and support it.

Mikami Yua came yesterday, but Li Xuewu had been busy and hadn't had time to receive them specifically.

Li Xuewu arranged for Sha Qizhi to send them invitations, also for the purpose of being mascots, to show those manufacturers who wanted the Red Star Factory's channels.

Now that the mascots had come to him, how could he be embarrassed not to receive them? He had to show the proper politeness and respect.

It was very obvious that Mikami Yua was very satisfied with Li Xuewu's politeness and flattery.

After chatting with a coquettish smile, she started chatting with Li Xuewu about this exhibition.

A main purpose of the Sanhe United Joint-Stock Company arranging for them to stay in the interior was to obtain the dynamics of cooperative partners in a timely manner.

Both positive and negative—this is the preparation and attitude that an international trading company should have.

Office Director Gucang Ping'er was sent by the Sanhe Joint-Stock Company to preside over intelligence collection and business exchanges.

What they can do and what they should do were all specially trained.

So look at them; they can always find Li Xuewu when they should appear, and communicate and ask him very gently and cleverly.

As for how Li Xuewu views the office, and how he views Gucang Ping'er, Mikami Yua, and others.

Gucang doesn't necessarily have the submissiveness and honesty on the surface; the Japanese have already suffered a big loss once, can they still be confused?

As for Mikami Yua, Takahashi Shoko, and Akari Tsumugi, they have naturally been "cheap" and "played."

As the saying goes:

Beauties come from a thousand miles to send, calling for a new groom day and night.

A pair of jade arms lie for thousands, half a vermilion lip for you to taste.

A shy look comes easily, a Bodhisattva heart in the ancient path.

Can walk on sea and land, still a bride when returning home.

This poem is called "Good Girl."

It was afternoon, and the exhibition wasn't that busy. Sha Qizhi was reporting work to Li Xuewu; seeing the Japanese businessmen coming, he didn't leave.

Don't ask; asking means he is learning, definitely not idle and watching the fun.

Watching what fun? Learning what?

Of course, it's watching... learning how the leader fools the foreigners.

He is the person in charge of the Foreign Affairs Office; docking with domestic manufacturers is work, and docking with foreign businessmen is also work.

Seeing the leader chatting nonsense with the other party was really funny.

Sha Qizhi can be considered to have mastered the essence of communication with foreign businessmen, which is: don't say a single true word.

"I forgot to ask you, where is Mr. Gucang?"

Li Xuewu chatted for a long time; seeing Mikami Yua still looking at him with great interest, he had to shift the firepower.

This woman is obsessed with him, right?

From the moment she came over, she had been interested in flirting with him... no, it should be chatting.

First, she asked a few topics she was interested in, and then she looked at him with admiring eyes, with obsessive little stars flickering.

What are you doing! I, Li Xuewu, am upright and open, not afraid of being smashed to pieces for the Red Star Factory, but I sell art, not my body!

"Section Chief Gucang went to the mountain to give a lecture—"

Mikami Yua's voice was a bit sweet, with the shyness and concealment of having her thoughts peeked at.

While explaining, she lowered her head to tidy the broken hair by her ear.

"Organized by the Foreign Affairs Office..."

Sha Qizhi explained in a low voice behind Li Xuewu, and Li Xuewu then knew.

It was still about the Japanese inspection delegation; organizing training is one aspect, but life and rules after arriving in Japan still need to be talked about.

The Sanhe Joint-Stock Company, as the docking and inviting organization, is naturally willing to provide support in this regard.

Originally, office workers like Mikami Yua could also give lectures and explanations, but thinking that it was in the mountains...

So Nakamura Hideji very impolitely supported his number one "cow and horse," Gucang Ping'er, to the Red Star Training Ground.

Not to mention, Gucang Ping'er should be the first foreigner to walk into the training ground.

Limited by confidentiality and security, his days there must not be so easy.

Of course, there is no problem with life; it's just that activities and freedom are hard to talk about.

After all, that is a station used by the Guard Third Regiment and the Red Star Factory together; him being able to enter can be considered special treatment.

"Do you still want to ask about President Nakamura?"

Seeming to see Li Xuewu's hesitation, Mikami Yua smiled mischievously, nodded slightly and said: "Then I won't disturb you."

"Hahaha—" Li Xuewu smiled awkwardly, waved his hand and said: "Communicating with Miss Mikami, I don't have any impatience; this is the truth."

"Oh? Did I misunderstand you—"

Mikami Yua easily believed Li Xuewu's ghost talk, and even expressed her apology with self-blame.

Hey! Can't you hear the polite talk?

Li Xuewu's mouth twitched slightly; looking at the other party sitting down again, he only felt his feet hurting.

Don't understand? Lifting a rock to smash your own feet!

Another thing, you are polite, but can you stop bowing all the time? Using high beams to shake people is very impolite.

Li Xuewu tactically crossed his right leg, smiled and said: "I actually want to ask Miss Mikami for advice."

"Please don't be polite!"

Mikami Yua very impolitely leaned over and sat on the same sofa as Li Xuewu, and turned on the high beams!

"An important part of our office's work in Beijing is to provide necessary consulting services for cooperative partners."

Her two long legs crossed like a snake into a twist, sitting diagonally on the sofa facing Li Xuewu.

"Including providing support and services in technology, information, and culture for cooperative partners, so don't be polite."

"Oh—was I polite?"

Li Xuewu blinked his eyes, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and before Mikami Yua could react, he took the initiative to ask: "What do you think is the main gap between China's automobile industry and Japan's automobile industry?"

"You can speak frankly; I want to hear the truth."

"Speaking frankly..."

Mikami Yua looked at the big palm that was only a palm's distance from her thigh; her heart was beating wildly.

He wouldn't really touch it, would he? This is a place where people come and go, in full view of everyone!

No! She should be worried that the other party won't touch it!

Thinking of the rewards and goals Nakamura-san gave them, Mikami Yua couldn't help but lean forward again.

"I think the biggest gap should be division of labor and cooperation."

Mikami Yua was able to be sent to Beijing, definitely not just because she was beautiful, but because she had real skills.

She only hesitated for a moment, then according to Li Xuewu's question, she recounted the gap in the automobile industry as she understood it.

Actually, what she said was also what Li Xuewu understood; it was what the Red Star Factory was doing, and it was also the purpose of the supply chain conference.

The automobile industry has never been a solo fight, let alone a single dominant company or an independent kingdom.

Division of labor and cooperation is the best means and path to maximize benefits and minimize risks.

"Actually, the Red Star Factory's supply chain system is already very advanced."

Mikami Yua talked about the gap between the two sides; at this moment, she felt that she would hurt Li Xuewu's self-esteem, so she wanted to find a few words to make up for it.

But Li Xuewu, who had a pair of "wise eyes" long ago, needed her to comfort himself?

He waved his hand, stopped Mikami Yua's comfort, smiled and said: "It's normal to have a gap; this proves that we have chosen the right direction, doesn't it?"

"Really thank you for your sharing, Miss Mikami."

Li Xuewu saw Cheng Kaiyuan coming over with people, stood up and took the initiative to shake hands with Mikami Yua.

He said apologetically: "I wish you a pleasant stay here; I have things to do, let's meet another day."

"That—Mr. Li—"

Mikami Yua looked at Li Xuewu who was about to leave, hesitated and asked: "Can I invite you to dinner?"

Seeing Li Xuewu turn his head to look at her, she explained embarrassedly: "I want to learn Chinese from you."

Oh! Didn't expect foreigners to also like to use this excuse; don't blame Director Qingquan!

"Of course, no problem, I'll treat you," Li Xuewu's smile was as bright and dazzling as a scumbag's, "Another day, definitely!"

"What 'another day, definitely'? Do you have a date?"

Cheng Kaiyuan had a full face of gossip, and asked with a smile: "Do you want to bring me along?"

"No problem, if there is a good thing, I will definitely remember to call you."

Li Xuewu gave him a bad smile, took a piece of data from his secretary's hand, looked at it, and handed it to Sha Qizhi.

"Checked it, right?"

"The Sales Division and Finance Division checked it; it should be no problem."

Zhang Shicheng didn't dare to give Li Xuewu a cold face; Li Xuewu asked this, so he had to answer seriously.

Li Xuewu was open and aboveboard, and didn't have the intention to make things difficult for him, so he casually said "hard work" and went to deal with Cheng Kaiyuan.

Generally speaking, the secretary of a factory leader is more arrogant than the Management Committee Office or department heads.

Even in the tone of speaking, they don't need to be servile or hypocritical.

But there is always an exception to everything!

That's right, Li Xuewu is the exception.

Stop joking; he holds the real power of the Security Group and carries a pistol on his waist when sitting in the office. Do you think he is a sick cat!

Those who didn't take him seriously—now the grass on their graves could be woven into mats; he is still in the establishment of the Management Committee, and there are few who dare to put on airs with Li Xuewu.

In the past, the atmosphere of the Red Star Factory's organs wasn't very good, and the secretaries of the Factory Office always looked at people with their nostrils.

Of course, it was much better than those women in the Finance Division who looked at people with their "leather eyes."

But comparing these two departments, there was nothing to be proud of; they were all the same damn thing.

The people below dealt with them in only one way: laughing to their faces, and cursing them behind their backs.

It's much better now; before the personnel reform, those who dared to provoke Li Xuewu in the Management Committee Office had already been cleaned up once.

After the organ personnel reform, in the offices of the Management Committee, it was peaceful, and everyone was very polite when meeting.

Is it awesome to be a secretary for a leader? The leader doesn't dare to be awesome when seeing Li Xuewu, and you dare?

Then you are even more awesome than the leader!

"Hiss—"

"Really or fake!"

"It wouldn't be deliberately fooling people, would it!"

When Sha Qizhi organized the on-site broadcaster to announce the trade data of the Tianjin Trade Management Center every month since its establishment, a burst of noise came from the exhibition scene.

There was discussion, suspicion, exclamation, and ridicule.

But no matter how they argued or what they said, the data was right there; no matter if they believed it or not, Li Xuewu believed it anyway.

Cheng Kaiyuan stood behind the operation console, looked at the feedback from the scene, and asked Li Xuewu beside him: "Is it effective?"

"What other effect do you want?"

Li Xuewu said amusingly: "We can't have everyone rushing over and staring at both of us with envious, jealous, and hateful eyes, right?"

"Hahaha—"

Cheng Kaiyuan heard him say it was funny, turned around and looked at Li Xuewu, and asked: "Do you have a sense of achievement?"

"The spark of the Red Star Factory's automobile industry was ignited by your hands after all."

"If you say it like that, I don't have a sense of achievement, but I have a full sense of pride—"

Li Xuewu didn't take the bait of this "old silver coin," and looked at the atmosphere of the scene being ignited by the data announcement with a smile.

He understood Cheng Kaiyuan's mind, nothing more than worrying about Jing Yuyu killing him with a "return horse gun."

The acquisition work of the Fengcheng No. 1 Machine Factory progressed very quickly under the intervention of Liaoning Industry.

It must be said that projects with policy support are really refreshing to have green lights all the way.

What hindered the time and progress of the acquisition was precisely the Red Star Factory itself.

Because Jing Yuyu listened to Li Xuewu's suggestion and strictly executed the merger and acquisition work according to the acquisition process.

That is to say, from investigation to verification, then to the inventory of core assets such as funds, assets, and personnel, then organizing discussion and research, and then executing the adjustment of the evaluation and acquisition plan.

It was very complicated and cumbersome; Liaoning Industry had to say it was professional after seeing it, but was it necessary?

Liaoning Industry supported the Red Star Factory's acquisition of the Fengcheng No. 1 Machine Factory; even after the Red Star Factory just revealed its attitude of continuing to invest in Liaoning, the Resident Office in Beijing made a call, giving land if land was wanted, and giving factories if factories were wanted.

With such active cooperation, the Red Star Factory was instead reserved; was it "refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit"?

Of course not. Li Xuewu explained it clearly to Jing Yuyu, and Jing Yuyu also explained it clearly to the person in charge of Liaoning Industry.

The Red Star Factory is a big family with a big business; the Fengcheng No. 1 Machine Factory acquisition case is not the first, and it won't be the last.

Regardless of whether they obtained the support of the local industry, the Red Star Factory must strictly execute according to organizational procedures and objective laws.

In its work, the Red Star Factory wants to explore a complete and effective cooperation plan that guarantees both sides, not just being responsible to the Red Star Factory, but also being responsible to Liaoning Industry.

This remark naturally received the recognition of Liaoning Industry, and they even arranged for special personnel to enter the acquisition group to observe and learn.

From the beginning of the acquisition case until now, it has been more than a month; Jing Yuyu left Beijing at the beginning of last month, and it has been two months now.

When Jing Yuyu was sent away, Li Huai De had ulterior motives.

Now that Jing Yuyu is back, Li Huai De's layout has already taken shape; whether it's Old Li or Old Cheng, they all have to give the other party an explanation.

The spark of the tertiary industry was ignited by Li Xuewu, and it was also the first reform project presided over by Li Huai De.

But it truly developed in Jing Yuyu's hands; Li Xuewu was more from the perspective of a chief designer.

Not the joking title of an automobile designer, but a design from system to operation, from personnel to finance, etc.

Li Huai De used the successor and future development to make Li Xuewu loosen his hand on the tertiary industry, but Jing Yuyu hadn't agreed yet.

Even if it had been coordinated through Li Xuewu, it was ultimately not a face-to-face talk, and there hadn't even been proper communication, right?

Therefore, the day Jing Yuyu returns to Beijing becomes the time for Cheng Kaiyuan to welcome the "big exam."

Jing Yuyu wants to play an attitude and mess with him, so his work will be troublesome.

Although there is Old Li's support, Old Li is not his father, so how could he come down to speak in person.

If the referee comes down, does he still want his face? Does he still want unity?

"How many companies have you talked to in these two days?"

Cheng Kaiyuan skipped the previous probing and greetings and asked seriously: "Are there any with strong intentions?"

"Zhuang Cangshu is responsible for this work."

Li Xuewu answered this question very straightforwardly, without shirking, and even more without taking it all on himself.

Specific negotiations and intention docking were not Li Xuewu's work; he was only responsible for organization and coordination.

Cheng Kaiyuan asking like this was still a probe, or rather, he was still doubting whether Li Xuewu could let go of the tertiary industry and production work.

Is it interesting?

If Li Xuewu really wanted to trip him up, he wouldn't be so "cheap," and he wouldn't do the work so roughly.

Even the readers know that to trip up Old Li, you have to mess with Cheng Kaiyuan; to trip up Cheng Kaiyuan, you have to mess with Old Li.

When did Li Xuewu ever engage in a frontal hard fight when messing with someone? It doesn't reflect his strength at all.

"I have a lot of confidence in him."

Showing his little white teeth, Li Xuewu turned his head and smiled slightly at Cheng Kaiyuan, who had a suspicious look, full of humility and confidence.

What do you mean? What do you mean?

Cheng Kaiyuan's brain was spinning rapidly, thinking about Li Xuewu's words just now.

Is Zhuang Cangshu Li Xuewu's person?

Impossible; if he were really Li Xuewu's person, would he behave so directly?

If he is not Li Xuewu's person, then he is Jing Yuyu's person.

But Jing Yuyu's relationship with Li Xuewu isn't good enough to wear the same pair of pants, so why would she build a stage for Zhuang Cangshu to sing?

Li Huai De had hints, and Li Xuewu would definitely not be power-hungry, but he didn't guarantee that he didn't have other arrangements.

Cheng Kaiyuan still understood this very well; who doesn't have a confidant? Arranging a few important positions is very normal.

If you really made a department all one color, then this factory would really not be able to accommodate him.

Li Xuewu's foundation is still shallow; he hasn't organized and cultivated many confidants, and even if he has, they are all at the grassroots level.

This is one of the reasons why Cheng Kaiyuan is so enthusiastic about Li Xuewu.

Even Li Xuewu is only at the deputy division level; how big a wave can he stir up?

Therefore, who exactly is Zhuang Cangshu, who is responsible for the final negotiation work of this supply chain conference and eats the most fragrant bite of meat?

Not Li Xuewu's, not Jing Yuyu's; could it be Li Huai De's?

Anyway, it's not his, Cheng Kaiyuan's!

He had thought about winning over the Tianjin Trade Management Center and truly mastering the two important tasks of production and sales.

But it's a pity that although Tianjin is not far from Beijing, it's still a train journey of more than two hours.

He hasn't even fully mastered production work yet, and he is even more out of reach for sales.

Plus Jing Yuyu is eyeing him like a tiger, and Li Xuewu is dominating one side; he is even more cautious and cautious when doing things, fearing the head and tail.

Cheng Kaiyuan didn't doubt at all that Zhuang Cangshu was Old Li's person.

Old Li often goes to Tianjin; "the near water tower gets the moon first." He doesn't believe Zhuang Cangshu wouldn't butter up Old Li.

Moreover, Li Huai De is very insidious; even if he were his person, he wouldn't tell him, and he wouldn't behave obviously.

After this automobile parts supply chain conference, there might be mechanical parts supply chain conferences, food supply chain conferences...

The Tianjin Trade Management Platform holds the Red Star Factory's richest trade resources; just scoop it up and you get ten thousand taels of silver.

You just say, why does Old Li often go to Tianjin? He couldn't be raising a mistress over there, right!

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Cheng Kaiyuan is still willing to believe that Old Li is a person with a bottom line and wouldn't do such things that violate organizational discipline.

He is really naive; otherwise, why would he be willing to be used as a gun by Li Huai De?

How stupid must one be to believe that Li Huai De has a bottom line? Isn't this equivalent to believing that Li Xuewu won't use force!

"Deputy Director Cheng, hello—"

A sweet, pretty voice came from their side, like a white lotus flower.

Cheng Kaiyuan turned his head and saw Little Hu, wearing the Foreign Affairs Office uniform and holding documents, greeting him; a smile immediately appeared on his face.

"Oh, hahaha, it's Little Hu."

His eyes sized up the other party's white shirt and gray knee-length skirt, as well as the white leather sandals, and asked unexpectedly: "Why are you..."

"I came to work at the Foreign Affairs Office—" Little Hu answered with a smile, while looking at Li Xuewu with an unnatural expression and nodding, greeting: "Deputy Director Li, hello."

"Hmm, hello, quite spirited."

Li Xuewu nodded perfunctorily and looked at the event scene again.

Seeing his cold and indifferent attitude, Hu Yanchiu couldn't help but sigh in her heart, bluntly saying that Li Erbala was too petty.

Don't know which time she showed her horse's feet, letting him know that there would be no good end after offending him.

Even if she was sent down to the Foreign Affairs Office, it wasn't what she wanted.

Who in the whole Red Star Factory doesn't know that the Director of the Foreign Affairs Office is Li Xuewu's former secretary, and even this department was created by Li Xuewu's proposal.

"I am now learning to do things following Director Sha, and I have gained a lot."

Hu Yanchiu knew how to endure; her words were not without flattery, and it seemed like she was complaining and reporting.

In the organ, everyone said that Zhang Shicheng was pursuing Hu Yanchiu, but the version Peng Xiaoli told him was another one.

As soon as this Hu Yanchiu came to the office, she launched a pursuit of Zhang Shicheng.

It's just that this little girl's level is very high; she released four or five kites with one hand, hanging several excellent young men in the organ.

This isn't Little Hu; this is Little Hai—the "Sea King" (player) Sea.

In this era, young men and women are absolutely cautious and reserved about their other half.

Unless it's a last resort, they won't rush to get married and do things.

Look at the alleys; from blind date to marriage, at most three months, but in the factory, in the organ, half a year is common, and a year is not few.

The last girl who was this "sea" was Yu Haitang, who is now still fishing for the "crooked-mouthed" Yuan Hua.

It's just that the current Yu Haitang is the deputy station master of the broadcast station, has more career ambition, and has more choices, so she started to keep herself clean.

Li Xuewu doesn't drink much soda in this life, but he drinks a lot of tea, especially green tea.

Drinking too much green tea hurts the stomach, so he later changed to black tea.

The economy is not good in this era; it's not bad to have tea to drink, and who has seen much tea leaves?

So even a novice like Hu Yanchiu can stir up trouble; it has to be said that the era is still too simple.

Listen to her tone when talking to Cheng Kaiyuan, and what tone she uses when reporting work to Sha Qizhi.

Look at the look in her eyes when she looks at people between her eyebrows; it always carries a peach-blossom appearance, which is the so-called "cheap" look.

But some men just eat this set; otherwise, why would the "clip sound" (fake cute voice) be so popular in later generations?

Li Xuewu is also used to eating fine grains and can't accept this kind of fake goods.

Once Peng Xiaoli ran over to report work to him, he took the opportunity to leave this side.

"What are you doing?"

Seeing Peng Xiaoli's eyebrow-twitching expression, Li Xuewu, who walked to the exhibition area, sized him up and asked with a smile: "Eye disease?"

"If I keep watching, I'm really going to get a stye—"

Peng Xiaoli gestured toward the direction Li Xuewu came from and said: "If I tell you, you will also be disgusted."

"Then don't tell me; I won't listen."

Li Xuewu twisted his mouth, took him and walked forward to see the achievement display of the supply chain partners.

Peng Xiaoli followed behind, scratching his heart and liver; taking the opportunity, he took the initiative to confess: "I didn't want to secretly follow them."

"Hmm, I believe you; you are a good person."

Li Xuewu evaluated amusingly: "So old, and not even dating; what bad intentions could you have."

"Leader, no need to be like this, right?"

Peng Xiaoli followed helplessly behind, and seeing no one was there, he said: "Heard that one bowl of noodles cost the money for two bowls..."

"You'd better not say it," Li Xuewu glanced at him and warned: "I am very simple; I can't listen to your dirty words."

"Tsk..."

Peng Xiaoli really had the heart to be bitten by a dog; who are you saying isn't simple? I don't even have a partner; am I not simple?

"Anyway, you just wait and see the good show; it's even more disgusting than 'The Western Chamber'—"

"Look at your lack of experience!"

Li Xuewu looked at several exhibition booths, turned his head and asked Peng Xiaoli who was pouting: "How is 'The Western Chamber' disgusting?"

"'The Western Chamber' isn't disgusting!"

Peng Xiaoli widened his eyes and emphasized: "Hypocrisy, adultery, lewdness, three people..."

"Beep—that's enough—"

Li Xuewu could already roughly guess what happened to Hu Yanchiu.

It can be said that "ambition is not in age, and lust is everywhere."

He thought about Peng Xiaoli's words in his heart and couldn't help but turn his head to look at Cheng Kaiyuan's direction.

Old Cheng was chatting happily with Hu Yanchiu.

The Red Star Factory supply chain conference was intense and exciting, but outside, the dark clouds were already pressing on the city.

The scenery here is unique because Li Xuewu opened his "heavenly eyes," and Li Huai De dared to believe him, so an invisible wall protected the Red Star Factory.

Actually, something happened on the first day of the supply chain conference on July 18th, and Director Du had to rush back in a hurry.

According to the original plan, other cadres would come to the scene to investigate and organize the seminar on the second night.

And the result?

The storm intensified, the candles in the Red Star Factory flickered, and everyone was terrified.

It was still Li Xuewu who was ruthless, pulling the Security Division Guard Regiment to stand guard outside the factory auditorium, which stabilized everyone's mind.

Li Xuewu is not a fortune-telling immortal; he doesn't remember when the weather is good and when it is rainy.

The arrow is on the string and must be fired.

Tonight is a big event for the automobile parts industry to conspire on manufacturing standards; he must be strictly prepared.

Old Li can very well understand his mood, and can also understand the mood of everyone in the Red Star Factory.

So he stayed in the factory very thoughtfully, and even arranged rooms in the guesthouse, so everyone could sleep together tonight.

Pfft! Of course, everyone sleeps in their own rooms.

The scope of the seminar is very large, but very few can speak.

Li Huai De, as the host, had the speech draft prepared by Li Xuewu and mobilized the emotions of everyone on the scene very well.

It also made everyone focus their minds on the seminar again.

Everyone has already seen the power of the supply chain, and everyone has also visited the assembly line equipment.

The supply chain conference is three days, but after three days, the Red Star Factory also organized a tour group.

Starting from the Red Star Factory, all the way to Tianjin, Yingcheng, and then to Steel City.

The invited heads of brother units can see with their own eyes the industrial level and production capability of the Red Star Factory.

You can see the assembly line, see the modernized industrial factory area, and see the excellent new-era workers.

Everyone knows that the Red Star Factory has set up a "thirty-year formation" in Steel City, wanting to sweep up the upstream and downstream light and heavy industrial clusters.

Liaoning Industry followed like a giant shark smelling blood, not only selling the largest mechanical processing enterprise under its industry to the Red Star Factory, but also giving green lights all the way in the Liaoning industrial field.

This is building an industrial aircraft carrier; no wonder the French call the Red Star Factory a future trust enterprise.

How many years does it take to transition from a steel rolling mill to a group enterprise?

The Red Star Factory is very likely to break this record; just looking at the turbulent and rapid advancement process, it is extremely dangerous, but opportunities are everywhere.

Against the backdrop of the Great Era, it created enterprises that are "not crazy, not alive," and also created a group of bold and careful enterprise people.

After Li Huai De served as the Director of the Management Committee, he had a ten-fold improvement in vision and overall situation compared to before.

His speeches and initiated discussions have to be treated carefully even by the five big factories.

Relying on his own strength to create the Red Star Factory, which has an epoch-making progress program for the automobile industry, he already has the qualification to wave the flag and shout, and command the heroes.

From the number of people who came to attend the conference tonight, it can be seen that these people have already recognized the Red Star Factory's supply chain system in their hearts.

Li Xuewu's idea is that even if they can't do it in one go, let the industry standard be born in the Red Star Factory, and let more people and more automobile enterprises recognize the standard opinions proposed by the Red Star Factory.

This matter can be ground slowly, but the Red Star Factory must start doing it now.

The Red Star Factory's standards are out; the more enterprises that benefit, the more enterprises that participate in the supply chain system.

More enterprises recognize and execute this standard; even if it hasn't gone through industry discussion, but with the endorsement of the Automobile Research Institute, it has become the default standard.

By then, the Red Star Factory building warehouse-style automobile parts standard storage and supply platforms in key national industrial cities can completely rely on this prerequisite to influence the national automobile development pattern.

Nonsense, the standards are all our standards; if I say how to develop, isn't it how to develop?

Possessing a complete foundation for the application of special steel and new materials, the Red Star Factory is going to set off a revolution in the automobile industry.

Of course, if you think that the conditions for building cars are simpler, then you are very wrong.

Watching the Red Star Factory brag yesterday, watching the supply chain enterprises brag today, don't they know what's going on?

The Red Star Factory supports small and medium-sized car enterprises to test and build cars; when these enterprises heard about industry standards, they already understood the significance of this supply chain conference.

Building cars is not easier, but harder.

Having standards is equivalent to having a threshold; if you can't even pass the threshold, how can you build cars?

Of course, having the ability to enter the hall doesn't mean you can show your talents and realize your dream of building cars.

Standards are thresholds, and standardization is steps; one step, one hurdle.

The supply chain only helps three types of enterprises: one is enterprises that can implement automobile manufacturing industrial reform as soon as possible, and one is enterprises that can withstand the impact of the supply chain car-building situation even without reform for the time being.

The last type is industries that have ability, capital, and technology, and can implement resource integration within the province to quickly build automobile production lines.

Why emphasize two "quickly"? Because time waits for no one; once the supply chain comes out, this track is even more crowded.

These three types of enterprises have the opportunity to realize their car-building dreams, and car enterprises outside these three types will also fish in troubled waters and squeeze into this market.

Although they clearly know that they will become the "running companions" in this competition, everyone dreams of being a "dark horse."

Therefore, tonight's seminar is interesting.

What is being discussed on the stage is clearly industry standards, but what is heard off the stage is that several major manufacturers representing this industry are enclosing land and raising thresholds.

Great waves washing away the sand; how many people's hearts have become cold in this instant.

What they think of is naturally "big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimp, shrimp have nothing to eat," not knowing that Li Xuewu engaging in standardization is saving them.

It's just that the trick of letting them see the dawn first and then hitting them into "three fat guys" with a stick is a bit damaging.

But didn't they lose nothing? It's better than throwing real money and silver in and dying worse than Zhao Si's father, right?

With a threshold, some people and some unrealistic fantasies are naturally eliminated.

If you can't make cars, just honestly be an automobile parts supplier.

The Red Star Factory can't mobilize all manufacturers to build cars; then who will build parts?

Dynamic balance; the Red Star Factory plays it quite smoothly.

"Ugh—"

Qin Huairu rolled her eyes in disgust, patted Li Xuewu several times, and was finally able to gasp for a rough breath.

Don't think too much; just brushing teeth, the toothpaste taste is a bit strong.

"Look at you, how old are you—"

Li Xuewu took the towel from the shelf and handed it to Qin Huairu, who was squatting, gesturing for her to wipe the toothpaste foam from the corner of her mouth.

"Ugh—"

It was also difficult for Qin Huairu; for the sake of a mouthful of white teeth, she took the initiative to ask Li *Director Toothbrush* Xuewu for help brushing her teeth.

She also rarely does teeth whitening, just happened to catch up, so she couldn't bear to miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

"Oh my, I said you were in a hurry, but you didn't believe me—"

Li Xuewu pulled up his pants and handed her a cup of water, patted her back very thoughtfully, and asked with concern: "You wouldn't be pregnant, would you?"

"Get lost—"

Even if her temper was as good as Qin Huairu's, she couldn't help but roll her eyes at Li Xuewu at this moment.

She hadn't heard of being pregnant from being "surprised"!

"Never seen anyone who can trample on people like you!"

Brushing teeth and rinsing mouth, besides feeling her cheeks a bit numb, her teeth seemed to be really much whiter.

Coming out of the bathroom, looking at Li Xuewu who was preparing to go out, she complained with dissatisfaction: "I kindly called you to get up for breakfast..."

"Hi, why are you being polite with me!" Li Xuewu smiled and patted her butt, politely saying: "You eat first, you eat first."

"Get lost, get lost, get lost—"

Qin Huairu complained and patted his back several times, but none of them were forceful.

That's right, she has a knife mouth and a tofu heart; who told her to run into such a tough guy.

"What are your plans for today?"

Gu Weijie also got up very early; when Li Xuewu came down, she happened to be eating breakfast.

Li Xuewu carried his meal tray and sat opposite her; hearing her ask this, he gestured toward the Security Building and said: "Go back to handle official business first, and I'll come over in the afternoon."

"You really can hold your breath—"

Gu Weijie said with a double entendre: "Be careful of 'chicken flying and egg breaking,' and ending up with nothing."

"You used this idiom wrong!"

Li Xuewu teased her jokingly, then blinked his eyes, leaned forward to her face and reminded her: "When have you seen me do wedding clothes for others?"

"You also know me; I am the most loyal, honest, and law-abiding, just wanting to serve the people in a down-to-earth manner."

He picked at the noodles in the bowl with chopsticks, grinned at Gu Weijie and said: "Whoever dares to stop me from serving the people is the enemy of the people, don't you think?"

"Looks like you were prepared long ago."

Gu Weijie raised her eyebrows, her eyelids drooping slightly, eating the noodles in her bowl, and said casually: "Only heard of a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken, never heard of a chicken spending New Year's with a weasel."

"Hahaha—"

Li Xuewu almost ate a mouthful of noodles into his nose, smiled and put the garlic he had peeled into Gu Weijie's bowl.

Seeing the other party glaring at him complainingly, he had something to say, "The more you care about rules, the more rules become shackles that bind you."

"Eating noodles without garlic, the taste is half less."

He had a lot of nonsense, gestured for Gu Weijie to eat garlic, and he also took a bite, then said: "Don't care what others think."

"I didn't know you were so free and easy."

Gu Weijie wouldn't pay attention to his crooked reasoning; Li Xuewu could ignore his image, but she is a female comrade.

So she ate the noodles in the bowl, and let Li Xuewu pretend with the garlic in the bowl.

"Acting old all day long; only seeing your outstanding ability and strength, I thought you were forty."

"I'll just take it as you praising me."

Li Xuewu slurped a mouthful of noodles; seeing she didn't eat the garlic, he didn't mind her being dirty, and clamped it into his own bowl with chopsticks.

When Gu Weijie held her chopsticks and glared at him with narrowed eyes, he didn't care at all, smiled and replied: "I don't dislike you."

"Thank you—" Gu Weijie said while biting her back teeth: "Thanks to you, otherwise I wouldn't be able to eat this meal deliciously."

"Easy to say, easy to say—"

Li Xuewu smiled, slurped the noodles in the bowl, and answered Gu Weijie's words with hidden meaning: "As the saying goes, one fence has three stakes, one woman..."

"Say it, keep saying it—"

Gu Weijie put down her chopsticks, just looked at Li Xuewu, and gestured for him to continue.

Li Xuewu pointed at the noodles in the bowl and said: "Today's noodles are not bad; why don't you have some more?" ===== CHAPTER 1173 =====
