Chapter 1173: A proper colleague relationship!

The Red Star Factory made big news, using the supply chain system and production standards to pry the gears of industry reform.

At the "Win-Win · Future" themed supply chain conference that ended on July 20th, automobile manufacturing enterprises and parts production enterprises led by the five big manufacturers signed cooperation letters of intent with the Red Star Factory one after another.

At the same time, at the industry standard conference held the night before, Hu Jiaquan, a US-educated engineer from the Automobile Research Institute, made a report.

This marks that China's automobile industry has officially embarked on a road of high-speed development...

"What are you looking at?"

He He Yu Shui didn't lighten her steps, but Peng Peng Xiaoli wasn't there, and Li Li Xuewu seemed to really not notice her coming in.

She leaned behind Li Li Xuewu and looked at the newspaper in his hand, curled her lips, and asked with a smile: "Why are you so narcissistic?"

"Hiss—"

Li Li Xuewu was too lazy to pay attention to her, but this girl was unruly and had no sense of boundaries at all.

Being reached into her neck by her hand, she didn't know why it was so cold, making him shiver.

"Are you bored?"

He glanced at her and put down the newspaper in his hand, asking: "Slacking off at this time?"

"Don't treat kindness as a donkey's liver and lungs!"

He He Yu Shui rolled her eyes, took out a popsicle from behind and gestured with it, asking: "Isn't it because I saw you were hot."

"I'm sitting in the office; how did you see I was hot?"

Li Li Xuewu closed the newspaper and put it aside; there was a photo of him on the black-and-white printed page.

It was taken at the supply chain conference lecture; don't know which reporter published it in the newspaper.

You still can't say, it looks quite like him.

At this time's newspaper and printing technology, don't even think about how clear it is.

Fortunately, it's a close-up shot, which can see the contours of the face and the cars in the background.

He didn't pay attention to the popsicle He Yu Shui handed over, looked at her and asked: "Don't you know I don't eat popsicles?"

"I just know you don't eat people!"

He He Yu Shui took back her hand in displeasure, muttered: "If you don't eat, forget it; who cares about you."

Saying so, she didn't wait for Li Li Xuewu to let her, turned around and sat opposite, tore the paper skin of the popsicle and ate it herself.

Is this popsicle bought for me?

Just one? Who are you fooling!

Li Li Xuewu looked at He He Yu Shui who was eating deliciously opposite, wishing that the cream popsicle had a mouse tail!

"Not working properly, what are you doing here?"

"Can I come here if I work properly?"

He He Yu Shui was purely looking for words to say, eating the popsicle in her hand, looking at Li Li Xuewu and asking: "Look, you're unhappy?"

"Originally, I wasn't unhappy," Li Li Xuewu raised his eyelids and said straightforwardly: "Isn't it because you came."

"Virtue, I didn't provoke you!"

He He Yu Shui curled her lips, looked at Li Li Xuewu's office, and asked: "Where is your little secretary?"

"Don't say it so ambiguously, okay?"

Li Li Xuewu flipped through the documents on the desk and argued: "What 'little secretary,' do you think I'm a capitalist?"

"It's you who are sensitive, okay?"

He He Yu Shui flipped through the documents piled on the desk and asked: "Do you have to deal with so much work every day?"

"Knowing that, you still come to bother me; why don't you do me a favor?"

Li Li Xuewu pointed to the door of the office and reminded: "If I don't send you off, I won't."

"Official business, go to the management office; don't report across levels, and don't report across departments."

Before He He Yu Shui could speak, he blocked the other party's mouth first, pointed his finger at her and emphasized: "If it's a private matter, wait until I get off work."

What are you thinking? This is He He Yu Shui, not Qin Qin Huairu; how could Li Li Xuewu use a toothbrush to block the other party's mouth.

He He Yu Shui's reaction was fast, staring at Li Li Xuewu and asking: "You have time after work?"

"That's not necessarily," Li Li Xuewu opened the document and played rogue: "We'll talk about it then."

"I'm not doing it anymore," He He Yu Shui slapped the table in anger, dropped the popsicle stick, hugged her arms and hummed: "You help me transfer."

"Where do you want to go!" Li Li Xuewu asked unhappily: "Can't the workshop accommodate you anymore?"

Just knew she had no good intentions coming to him at this time; she was going to make trouble again.

Last time in Qin Qin Huairu's office, she mentioned this, but he didn't pay attention to her; didn't expect her to chase to the office to say it.

"I don't want to work in the textile factory anymore."

He He Yu Shui didn't look at him either, hugged her arms and looked out the window, saying: "I want to work in the Red Star Factory, the Security Division is fine."

"Are you coming to the Security Division to work?" Li Li Xuewu frowned and asked: "You are also an adult; why do you think of one thing and another."

"Just don't want to stay there anymore!"

He He Yu Shui suddenly raised her volume, turned her head and stared at Li Li Xuewu, saying: "I said I want to come to the Red Star Factory, is that okay?"

"Is the Red Star Factory my home?" Li Li Xuewu frowned and asked: "You want to go wherever you want! Honestly go back to the workshop!"

Slap—

He He Yu Shui didn't care about Sun Ji Jian who walked in, stood up and panted, saying: "Anyway, I told you."

After saying this, she turned her head and walked out, leaving Sun Ji Jian stunned.

"This... what's going on?"

Sun Ji Jian is the director of the Security Group's Comprehensive Office, Yang Yang Fengshan's former secretary, who was trained by Li Li Xuewu for half a year and successfully "rebelled."

Of course, describing it like this is just a joke; he didn't receive any tasks from Yang Yang Fengshan, let alone any entrustment or burden.

Talking about the relationship between secretary and leader, if there is no consistent superior-subordinate order, it is basically over.

Like Jin Jin Yaohui, who was entangled with Li Li Huai De and even jumped off the building, it is rare.

He didn't figure out the situation when he came in, and didn't dare to speak nonsense, very afraid of knowing content that shouldn't be known.

Li Li Xuewu just pinched his eyebrows, didn't explain, and asked in a deep voice: "Is the matter handled?"

"Yes, I handled it with Section Chief Zhou personally."

Sun Ji Jian handed a document to Li Li Xuewu and didn't sit down opposite.

It's not that the leader didn't let him sit, it's just a simple report, not a long-winded one, so there is no need to sit.

"All visiting merchants have left, the number of people and luggage match, and they are relatively satisfied with our service."

He reported: "For the security work during the conference, all guesthouses have received praise and compliments..."

"Have the rooms been checked?" Li Li Xuewu tapped the pencil in his hand and asked while looking at the document: "The Security Division shouldn't have any problems, right?"

"Didn't receive a specific report..."

Sun Ji Jian secretly looked at Li Li Xuewu's expression, hesitated and asked: "Do I need to emphasize it to the Security Division again?"

"No need, no news is good news."

Li Li Xuewu didn't tell him more; it's not that he didn't trust Sun Ji Jian, it's just that there was no need to tell him too clearly about this work.

The case being investigated by the Security Division and the Security Section, although Li Li Xuewu didn't catch it personally, he attached enough importance to it.

Especially every time the factory has relatively major activities or foreign reception, he now has an extra sense of vigilance.

"Arrange it, the security guards on duty for this activity should change shifts and rest, and help me say a word of hard work to everyone."

"Yes, I'll go do it right away."

Sun Ji Jian looked at Li Li Xuewu, saw he had no arrangements, and turned to leave the office.

Li Li Xuewu glanced at the back of the person leaving from the document, his eyes narrowed slightly.

"So majestic, Expert Li?"

Ai Ai Jiaqing's appearance was a bit sudden, and Li Li Xuewu looked like he had seen a ghost.

"Why? Can't survive in Hong Kong anymore?"

His mouth is really damaging; he doesn't suffer any losses at all.

The two of them started to fight as soon as they met; those who knew were partners, those who didn't would think they were a happy couple.

"I have to say, 'Mother is the best in the world,' nothing is better than home."

Li Li Xuewu waved his hand, dismissed Peng Peng Xiaoli, and personally poured a cup of tea for Ai Ai Jiaqing who came from afar.

Ai Ai Jiaqing nodded with emotion and said: "I didn't know you could say such emotional words."

"Hey! Don't talk nonsense!"

Li Li Xuewu stood straight and emphasized: "We can only be pure comrades; I have a family."

"Yo! Didn't expect you to be so pure—"

Ai Ai Jiaqing raised her eyebrows, looked at Li Li Xuewu who was sitting down and said: "Really didn't see it, sorry Expert Li."

"Calling me an expert is too polite," Li Li Xuewu waved his hand and said modestly: "According to your saying, just call me Master."

"Alright, you dare to answer, I dare to call."

Ai Ai Jiaqing was in a ladies' suit, capable and slim, especially with the short hair style of a man, making her look more heroic and handsome.

"Then may I ask Master Li, how does it feel to be famous in the universe and reach the ears of heaven?"

"Too exaggerated—"

Li Li Xuewu picked up the teacup, shook his head, and smiled slightly: "Nothing more than a little empty name; I didn't take it to heart."

Following Ai Ai Jiaqing's playful gaze, he casually put the newspaper with his photo on the small table and said calmly: "It's all serving the people."

"Oh, is that so—" Ai Ai Jiaqing nodded clearly, smiled and said: "Looks like Master Li is really indifferent to fame and wealth, and dedicated to the public."

She crossed her slender legs, leaned on the sofa and looked at Li Li Xuewu and asked: "Don't know what Master Li is going to do next, can you take care of us and reveal a little news."

"Where does this come from?" Li Li Xuewu pretended to be confused, put down the teacup, spread his hands and said: "If you want to talk about being omnipotent and well-informed, it has to be you, this immortal Bodhisattva?"

He looked at the other party seriously and asked: "Coming back so suddenly, without any news, I was a bit caught off guard."

"I'm not Miss Lou; what do you have to be caught off guard about?"

Breaking Li Li Xuewu's arrangement, Ai Ai Jiaqing said with a smile: "This immortal is at best a passing god of wealth; Miss Lou is the real god of wealth."

"Hmm, sour, where does the sour smell come from?"

Li Li Xuewu deliberately turned his head, looked around and said: "Strange, is the canteen making dumplings? Why is there a vinegar smell?"

"I'm just jealous, so what?"

Ai Ai Jiaqing said with a shameless expression: "I'm not the only one eating vinegar; think about it before answering."

"Why? Really fulfilled that old saying, burning bridges after crossing the river?"

"Look at what you said, the more you say, the further away it is, isn't it?"

Li Li Xuewu laughed, raised his hand to signal her to drink tea, and covered it up: "You almost made me confused; after a long time, you came to ask for guilt?"

"Are you wronged?"

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, Ai Ai Jiaqing smiled meaningfully, holding the teacup and said: "Do you want me to help Master Li break it down?"

"Hahaha—"

Li Li Xuewu really didn't expect that the people from Wufengxing would react so fast, so big, and kill their way to the door right after the meeting.

Is it a coincidence, or did they fly back specifically for this matter?

He laughed, seeing the other party looking at him leisurely, waiting for him to pretend... no, waiting for his explanation, so he knew this matter couldn't be covered up.

"Actually, it's just normal business expansion," Li Li Xuewu explained: "We have preparations to engage in pharmaceutical manufacturing business; you should know this."

"I don't know—"

Ai Ai Jiaqing's face looked bad, she took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and looked at Li Li Xuewu and complained: "We don't know about this; when do you plan to notify us?"

"You wouldn't be planning to wait until Watsons is completely acquired and similar products appear on the market before telling us, right?"

She frowned and looked at Li Li Xuewu and asked: "Is it necessary to be sneaky about this kind of thing?"

"Were we sneaky?"

Li Li Xuewu spread his hands and said calmly: "We didn't, okay, open and aboveboard?"

"Have some face, after all, you are a master," Ai Ai Jiaqing took out a pack of ladies' cigarettes from her pocket, gestured at Li Li Xuewu, and lit one herself when she saw him shake his head.

"If you want to say we are comrades, I won't go around in circles with you."

She took a puff of smoke, squinted her left eye slightly, looked at Li Li Xuewu and said: "Greed is not good, and biting off more than you can chew is not good."

"Do you know who is staring at Watsons?"

"Oh, what advice does President Ai have?"

Li Li Xuewu picked up the teacup and drank slowly, saying lightly: "Or, any other advice?"

"Don't be ungrateful, be careful of stealing a chicken only to lose the rice."

Ai Ai Jiaqing blew a puff of smoke, raised her eyebrows, and said very seriously: "I know what you are worried about."

"I also know what you are laying out," she tapped the ash and asked: "But have you considered what an unstable foundation means to the Eastern system?"

"Seeking wealth in danger?"

Li Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes, the leg he was folding shook slightly, and said: "I don't know anything about Steel City; you tell me now, it's like playing the lute to a cow."

He drank another cup of hot tea and asked straightforwardly: "Why don't you talk directly to Miss Lou?"

"I know you are kind, but since this matter has been handed over to the Eastern system to handle, I can only 'suspect no one, use no one's suspicion'."

Li Li Xuewu waved his hand, knowing what Ai Ai Jiaqing wanted to say, and said one step ahead of her: "As I just said, we are comrades, let's stop going around in circles."

"What does Wufengxing want? What do you want to do?"

He tapped the sofa armrest and asked: "You can tell me directly; let's be honest."

"Miss Lou is gambling, gambling that the Li family won't collide head-on with her."

Ai Ai Jiaqing took a puff of smoke, paused, and then said: "Even if she wins this time, what about next time?"

"Hong Kong has its own rules of the game; she is not a 'big circle boy' (gangster), let alone a desperado."

She leaned forward slightly, looked at Li Li Xuewu and asked: "What? Are you really planning to move for real?"

"What are you talking about? I don't understand."

Li Li Xuewu's eyelids drooped, and his tone was very gentle: "Whatever Miss Lou does, I can't reach it; I only have trust and support."

"If you want to say Wufengxing is interested in Watsons, then I can introduce Miss Lou to you."

"Good—"

Ai Ai Jiaqing saw Li Li Xuewu's attitude, smiled slightly, put down the leg she was folding and said: "Three-seven split, okay?"

"One-nine is of course suitable," Li Li Xuewu said with a smile: "I have never seen such a suitable cooperation."

"Then four, you already said we are comrades," Ai Ai Jiaqing still maintained the smile just now, as if she didn't hear the donkey-lip-not-matching-horse mouth in Li Li Xuewu's words.

Li Li Xuewu was also the same kind of person, tapping the sofa armrest and saying: "I of course agree, then let's split it two-eight; I haven't thanked Wufengxing for taking care of the Eastern system yet."

"It should be, relying on parents at home, relying on friends when going out."

Ai Ai Jiaqing said with a smile: "I think four-six is already very suitable, if you really think so."

"My sincerity is of course full."

Li Li Xuewu said very sincerely: "If you agree to three-seven, I will write a letter to Miss Lou; it will arrive in about a month."

"Stop making trouble, comrade—"

Ai Ai Jiaqing's expression had already broken the lie in Li Li Xuewu's words; how could she not know that Lou Watching Lou Xiaoe and Li Li Xuewu had the ability of instant communication?

A girl in her early twenties, doing things as spicy and ruthless as an old Buddha, how many Hong Kong people have come up, all of them bumped their heads into bags.

The Eastern Era Bank is like iron; in the first month, more than thirty sacks were thrown into the high seas to feed the sharks.

Where is this a dragon crossing the river? This is Medusa.

To say that there is no expert behind Lou Watching Lou Xiaoe, she would rather die than believe it.

She only believes that Beijing produced one such monster, Li Li Xuewu, which is enough to ruin the feng shui of five thousand years.

If another Lou Watching Lou Xiaoe appeared, she would only feel that the world was acting on her.

"Three-seven is three-seven," Ai Ai Jiaqing nodded and said: "Wufengxing seven, Eastern system three."

"Hehe, comrade, you'd better not make trouble."

Li Li Xuewu waved his hand, fanned away the smoke drifting from her side, and said with a smile: "Giving you three points is for the sake of harmony and wealth; I'll only say it one last time, no next time."

He stood up, walked to the tea cabinet, picked up the thermos, and said while talking: "You just said Hong Kong has rules of the game; how come there are no rules of the game anywhere?"

While refilling tea for Ai Ai Jiaqing, he said: "Since it's doing business, then follow the rules of the business world."

Putting down the thermos, Li Li Xuewu flicked the dust on his pants, sat down and said: "I hate people who don't follow the rules the most."

"Is the chassis platform introduction agreement signed?"

Cheng Kaiyuan met Li Li Xuewu in the small canteen and took the initiative to ask: "People from Beijing No. 2 Auto have come to ask."

"Their technology is average," Li Li Xuewu explained to Cheng Kaiyuan while holding a lunch box in line: "Since it's all public bidding, why bother to take care of human feelings."

"I think so too; cooperation is cooperation, business is business, and they can't be confused."

Cheng Kaiyuan nodded in agreement and said: "Director Li also asked about this matter; you have time to report it."

"You're just pitting me—"

Li Li Xuewu looked back at him, helplessly said: "Do I look like a villain?"

"Hahaha—"

Cheng Kaiyuan smiled and patted his arm, signaled to move forward, and teased: "Say it, laugh it, the contract matter still needs to be grabbed tightly on your side."

"This matter, can't be rushed—"

Li Li Xuewu saw it was his turn, placed the lunch box on the counter, and signaled Sha Zhu to fill it up.

"The Foreign Affairs Office is responsible for coordination, and the negotiation group is responsible for the organization and negotiation of all business; I can't intervene easily."

He turned back and reminded Cheng Kaiyuan: "If you are anxious about this matter, you still have to talk to Deputy Director Jing."

"Anyway, it's just these two days; when she gets home, you can coordinate again."

After Sha Zhu packed the food, he didn't pay attention to the other party's hesitant look, said two words to Cheng Kaiyuan, and went upstairs.

Cheng Kaiyuan was very patient and sincere, holding the food and chasing Li Li Xuewu all the way to the private room.

He wanted to talk about the automobile parts storage area and professional factories.

This supply chain conference had a fruitful harvest for the Red Star Factory, and more than a hundred parts manufacturers decided to join the supply chain system.

Twenty-two car companies intend to carry out production standardization reform and are rushing to Steel City to learn from the Red Star Factory.

Fourteen provincial and municipal industrial units expressed concern and care for the supply chain production plan.

Among them are Hebei Province and Henan Province, which had cooperation foundations earlier; the results of the previous factory-wide leadership investigation have been implemented.

Four provinces have professional factories joining the Red Star Factory's supply chain system.

Only some are automobile industries, and most are food industries and hardware industries.

This time, it took the supply chain conference as an opportunity to let the provinces that paid attention to the Red Star Factory earlier find a breakthrough for cooperation.

The Red Star Factory is preparing for promotion, and the next step is group-based work.

After completing the promotion, it is bound to re-divide the internal factory areas and units, form professional factories, and adjust the organizational structure.

According to the original plan, the Red Star Factory plans to merge all automobile manufacturing factories and automobile parts production factories into the Red Star Steel Group Red Star Automobile Manufacturing Factory.

So this cake was made big, and the flies stared at it.

With a supply chain, with industry standards, and also building dispatch warehouses, and as a professional factory with maximized profits, Cheng Kaiyuan absolutely couldn't let go of this piece of fat.

Not to mention Cheng Kaiyuan couldn't let go, even the five big manufacturers couldn't let go.

Except for the many units that signed cooperation letters of intent, the five big manufacturers also received a special agreement intention of comprehensive strategic partnership provided by the Red Star Factory.

The Red Star Factory's ambition is great; with the support of Director Du of the First Ministry of Machine Building, carrying the power of the supply chain and the momentum of small and medium-sized car companies, it forced the five big manufacturers to recognize this industry standard.

Then turning around, it offered more suitable cooperation conditions to the five big manufacturers, one of which was supporting them to complete production reform.

It seems the Red Star Factory is humble and flattering, but in fact, it is accelerating the establishment and implementation of industry standards.

Especially manufacturing standards; Li Li Xuewu told Cheng Kaiyuan that Deputy Director Jing is back, and it is time for him to go north.

Cheng Kaiyuan didn't even think about it, shaking his head roundly.

Nons

Yes, at this time, the Fengcheng No. 1 Machinery Plant indeed needs someone to take charge, and to quickly organize, soothe, readjust the organizational structure, and implement reforms in personnel and production systems.

Only if the Fengcheng No. 1 Machinery Plant completes its transformation quickly, improves the quality of its mechanical production, and develops machinery with higher precision, can the Red Star Factory be considered to have gained a firm foothold in this wave.

But Cheng Kaiyuan is unwilling; it concerns his personal future and interests.

Jing Jing Yunong left for two months, the joint industry was transferred to the Steel City industry and taken by Dong Wenxue, and the tertiary industry was transferred to the Production Management Office and harvested by him.

If it weren't for Li Li Xuewu letting go of the Tianjin Trade Management Center, and if it weren't for this supply chain conference being held so well, Jing Jing Yunong would definitely have made a scene.

The supply chain conference was held well, and the one that gained the most was not any department of the Beijing factory, but the Tianjin Trade Management Center.

This project was hosted by the Sales Office from beginning to end, and the Trade Management Center ate the biggest piece of the pie.

Looking again at the Red Star United Savings Bank, with the layer-by-layer advancement of insurance business, the gradual expansion of banking business, and the increasingly better financial performance, it also blocked Jing Jing Yunong's mouth.

Otherwise...

Cheng Kaiyuan didn't want to go to Fengcheng, but he didn't state his reasons, instead turning to Dong Wenxue's side.

According to what he meant in his words, with Dong Wenxue sitting in Liaodong industry, the Fengcheng No. 1 Machinery Plant absolutely doesn't need to worry.

What does this count as?

He doesn't dare to go to Fengcheng, and he still wants Dong Wenxue to owe him a favor.

We didn't order a single dish, and we still have to pay for several?

Li Li Xuewu is also vicious; clearly knowing what Cheng Kaiyuan is thinking, he says if he doesn't go to Liaodong, then go to Tianjin.

This time, the Red Star Factory placed all its negotiation teams in Tianjin, and more than half of the Red Star Factory's attention shifted there.

Including the bidding for the chassis platform, the technical sharing of the Vehicle Engineering Research Institute, the procurement of Red Star automobiles, the channel agreements and export agreements for automobile sales, and so on.

This also includes the five major manufacturers wanting to negotiate with the help of the Red Star Factory's domestic and foreign sales channels.

Of course, the five major manufacturers' cars are not hard to sell, and they can completely ignore domestic channels.

Wrong, dead wrong; not hard to sell was in the past.

Seeing so many car companies signing supply chain agreements with the Red Star Factory, not hard to sell today, but what about tomorrow?

Once the supply chain is out, everyone is in danger.

Therefore, the Red Star Factory not only pinched the source of production but also pinched the sales terminal.

Why did Li Li Xuewu acquire real estate in Beijing to do motorcycle sales instead of automobile sales?

Because these are two different channels; automobile sales need to set up proper 4S stores, which need to be spread out one by one.

Moreover, the Red Star Factory's 4S stores didn't intend to just sell their own factory's cars.

Therefore, for such a big matter, Cheng Kaiyuan was also thinking about the Tianjin business, so Li Li Xuewu very straightforwardly invited him to preside over the work.

Hehe, the old saying goes, a person's life is destined by heaven; if King Yama wants you to die at the third watch, who dares to keep you until the fifth watch.

Sure enough, Li Li Xuewu's active invitation was met with Cheng Kaiyuan backing out, refusing on the grounds that he had to preside over the work after Jing Jing Yunong returned.

Li Li Xuewu exhausted his kindness and could only wish Cheng Kaiyuan good luck; this land of Beijing really doesn't bury those who die unjustly.

"What are you doing? Having an underground meeting?"

Li Li Xuewu glanced at Seeing Sha Zhu, who was pulling him to walk to the side, and asked: "Mysterious, what exactly do you want to do?"

He wanted to find Li Li Xuewu when he was getting food just now, but he saw that Li Li Xuewu didn't see his eye signals.

Nonsense, he was standing inside, and Li Li Xuewu was talking to Cheng Kaiyuan; how could he see it?

Seeing Sha Zhu had no choice but to wait for Li Li Xuewu to finish eating and intercept him when he came down from upstairs.

"Sigh, I want to ask you for a favor."

Before he even started speaking, he sighed first; this favor definitely wouldn't be small.

Li Li Xuewu pointed at the time on his hand and reminded him: "I'm not joking with you, I'm so pressed for time that I only have time to eat."

"If this matter of yours isn't urgent, Sunday?"

"That... it's a bit urgent!"

Seeing Li Li Xuewu was about to leave, Seeing Sha Zhu didn't put on a constipated expression anymore, pressed his hand, and said: "He Yu Shui..."

"Beep—" Hearing him mention He Yu Shui, Li Li Xuewu waved his hand to stop him and said: "You're still acting as a lobbyist for her?"

Saying this, he sized Seeing Sha Zhu up, curled his lips, and said: "You siblings have teamed up to fool me, right?"

"She... she has no other way."

Seeing Sha Zhu had a bitter face and said sincerely: "You also know my temper, brother, I'd rather die than beg others, if it weren't for..."

Saying this, he was also in a difficult position, sighed again, and said: "How should I put it—"

"Did the textile factory make things difficult for her?"

Li Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, looked at Seeing Sha Zhu who was squatting on the ground, and asked: "Is it her boyfriend, or someone else?"

"I don't know either," Seeing Sha Zhu rubbed his face and said: "She doesn't tell me these things when she comes home; if her sister-in-law hadn't asked, I wouldn't even know this."

"Hmm, you're a good brother."

Li Li Xuewu didn't know what to say either, looked at Seeing Sha Zhu, and said: "She came to find me this morning, and right off the bat, she said she couldn't go on working at the textile factory and wanted to come to our factory."

"She's even more stubborn than me, if it weren't for the fact that it's really..." Seeing Sha Zhu hesitated for a moment and said: "I'm relieved that she could take the initiative to tell you; it's not good to keep it bottled up alone."

He stood up, lowered his head, and said: "I guessed she wanted to come to our factory; she asked me when we were eating dinner a few nights ago, but I didn't agree to her request."

After explaining this, he raised his head again, looked at Li Li Xuewu, and asked: "How about... you see if the Security Department..."

"Are you stupid or am I stupid?"

Li Li Xuewu frowned and glanced at Seeing Sha Zhu, asking: "Just because she said she wanted to come to the Security Department, I have to arrange for her to come to the Security Department?"

"You don't know what she's thinking by coming to the Security Department, right?"

Facing Li Li Xuewu's pressing questions, Seeing Sha Zhu's mouth twitched, he remained silent, and sighed again; that expression made Li Li Xuewu feel annoyed.

After a long while, Seeing Sha Zhu finally spoke: "I only have this one sister... we depend on each other."

Seeing Li Li Xuewu looking over, he paused, then continued: "No matter what, you are my brother, I can only come to you for this matter..."

"Hey! So you're latching onto me—"

Li Li Xuewu gritted his teeth, reached out as if to hit him, but in the end, only patted his shoulder.

He rarely patted people on the shoulder; even for his subordinates, he only patted their arms to express closeness.

"Fine! I misjudged you!" He nodded, squeezed Seeing Sha Zhu's shoulder hard, and said: "You really are a good brother!"

"Just don't regret it!"

Seeing Seeing Sha Zhu's full face of stubbornness, Li Li Xuewu pushed his shoulder, pointed his finger at him, and reminded him: "I'm responsible for the killing, not the burying."

"I believe you," Seeing Sha Zhu looked at Li Li Xuewu and said earnestly: "No matter what, I treat you as a brother."

"Brother, let's discuss this."

Li Li Xuewu was about to be driven crazy by the brain circuits of these two siblings; he leaned toward Seeing Sha Zhu and discussed: "How about I arrange for He Yu Shui to go to the frontier office?"

"Don't like the conditions? Then go to Yuezhou, the water and soil of Jiangnan nourish people—"

After saying this, he reached out and patted Seeing Sha Zhu's chest, then turned and walked out.

Seeing Sha Zhu, however, said to him: "Treat... He Yu Shui better."

"Get the hell out of here!" Li Li Xuewu said without looking back: "I'm a decent person!"

In the week after the supply chain ended, Li Li Xuewu was busy spinning around.

There was the work delayed last week, and also new problems that appeared in the connection of the organizational structure after the personnel reform of the agency.

"Talk to the No. 2 Machinery Plant; this is an opportunity. If they can't grasp it, no one can save them."

Li Li Xuewu knocked on the conference table and reminded: "The Red Star Factory is a brother unit, not brothers playing house."

"If there's no money, you can get financing from the United Savings Bank, but production capacity must be raised."

He didn't care about Cheng Kaiyuan's past favors either, and said directly to the person in charge of the negotiation team: "If they can't keep up in the next six months, we won't take them along to play."

Putting down the pencil in his hand, Li Li Xuewu looked at Cheng Kaiyuan and said: "Dozens of car companies are very likely to apply for technology and production equipment upgrades at the same time; if they are slow, they absolutely won't be able to hold up."

"Hmm, I'll coordinate it later."

Cheng Kaiyuan still gave Li Li Xuewu face at the office meeting, especially since what the other party said was right.

"Time waits for no one; the automobile industry production standards can be implemented in at most half a year."

Li Li Xuewu looked at everyone at the venue and said: "The cooperation intentions are advancing very quickly; I received calls from Tianjin, all good news."

"Ah? What are you all still waiting for?"

He tapped the table and reminded: "Are you being slow like dung beetles? The opportunity that was finally created, are you just going to let it slip away like this?"

"Re-examine the partners of the joint industry and tertiary industry, and put the expansion and capacity improvement on the negotiation table."

Li Li Xuewu said very seriously to everyone: "If you can keep up, then keep up; if you can't keep up, then withdraw capital and leave."

He looked at Li Li Huai De and said: "Partners, brothers settle accounts clearly; it doesn't hurt the harmony, right?"

Li Li Huai De just nodded and didn't intend to speak.

He knew very well how much he weighed; he would consider the business Li Li Xuewu recognized, and he wouldn't consider what Li Li Xuewu didn't recognize.

"Make it clear to the Beijing No. 2 Machinery Plant, if there are difficulties, bring them up quickly," Jing Jing Yunong said to the person in charge of the negotiation group: "This project is very important; if they can't take it down, then continue to find cooperative joint-venture manufacturers to come in; the bigger the cake, the more everyone has to eat."

"This also includes other joint industries and tertiary industries."

She added another sentence, which counted as playing the good cop after Li Li Xuewu played the bad cop.

Li Li Huai De looked at the two of them, muttering in his heart: are these two cooperating tacitly, or are they contradicting each other?

Tacit cooperation seems unlikely; he pulled such a move, which counted as pulling the chair from under Li Li Xuewu and tearing down Jing Jing Yunong's stage.

Jing Jing Yunong should hate Li Li Xuewu; the two of them now have a conflict.

He is the director of the Management Committee; he doesn't care about anything else, just personnel issues.

As long as personnel issues are handled well, then everything else is fine.

Li Li Xuewu didn't have any reaction to Jing Jing Yunong's supplementary speech, as if he didn't care.

This was no longer the first meeting since Jing Jing Yunong returned, and the two had no intersection.

Everything was in Li Li Huai De's calculations.

"The automobile supply chain conference is done; continue to hold the food supply chain and hardware supply chain conferences."

Li Li Xuewu turned to look at Zhuang Zhuang Cangshu and reminded: "The burden is heavy and the road is long; your time is very tight."

"That is indeed the case, cough cough."

Zhuang Zhuang Cangshu looked at Li Li Huai De and said to Li Li Xuewu: "We have made a countdown plan, with a duration of two years, focusing on supply chain and office construction, and key support for cooperative enterprises..."

"Economic and trade work must be carried out efficiently."

Li Li Xuewu tapped the table with his pencil, interrupting his report, "Supply chain and offices are one aspect, but creating competitive products is also your key work."

He looked at Jing Jing Yunong and Cheng Kaiyuan and explained: "The Trade Management Center is at the forefront of industrial production and has the highest sensitivity to commodities."

"Therefore, the opinions of the economic and trade sector must be valued, and the awareness of collecting and analyzing business data must be improved."

After finishing this sentence, he tapped Zhuang Zhuang Cangshu again and reminded: "The person in charge of Wufengxing is in Beijing; contact her later, go to Tianjin together, clarify foreign trade, and investigate domestic distribution clearly, okay?"

"I understand!"

Zhuang Zhuang Cangshu knew very well that this kind of office meeting had no problems, only instructions and arrangements.

Which leader doesn't prepare and investigate in advance for an office meeting, and only makes decisions after asking you questions at the meeting?

Everything is prepared with investigation and decisions in advance; they aren't here to listen to your report, you just need to say yes, or talk about implementation difficulties.

"Yesterday I met with the person in charge of the Beijing Supply and Marketing Branch," Li Li Xuewu looked at the leader and introduced: "The last step of communication between the Trade Management Center and Beijing Supply and Marketing has been cleared."

He tapped the table and emphatically reminded Jing Jing Yunong, saying: "The supply chain of the internal service department of the joint unit will receive support from Beijing Supply and Marketing, and at the same time, the products of the supply chain will also be transformed into the supply and marketing market through them."

"This is good news—"

Jing Jing Yunong smiled slightly, looked at Li Li Xuewu, and said: "When I came back from Steel City, Comrade Wenxue was still worried about whether the supply and marketing channels could be cleared after the production capacity exploded."

Speaking of this, she looked at Li Li Huai De again and said: "Being able to release the flood in the Beijing supply and marketing system, I think the first wave of production capacity explosion can be worry-free."

"Hahaha, Comrade Li Xuewu works very seriously," Li Li Huai De smiled lightly and looked at Zhuang Zhuang Cangshu and others at the end of the office desk and asked: "Do the comrades below have pressure?"

"Hahaha—"

Zhuang Zhuang Cangshu and others cooperated with light laughter, one by one full of vigor, actively expressing that it was not hard work.

Nonsense, if a leader asks like this, it's just being polite; do you take it seriously?

This is the time to add burdens to you; if you dare to shirk responsibility, then you'll be happy, and you'll never finish wearing small shoes for the rest of your life.

Coming out of the conference room, Jing Jing Yunong glanced lightly at Li Li Xuewu when passing by, sending a signal.

Li Li Xuewu's eye corners twitched slightly: I have something to do tonight, no appointment.

What are you looking at! Proper colleague relationship! Haven't you seen it before!

PS: Stop saying I'm padding, it's still the same recipe, still the same taste, hahaha! Ten million words, you're only calling it padding now, isn't it a bit late? Stop scolding me in the comments, it's useless; I haven't collapsed after writing this far, my mentality is as stable as an old dog.

He Yu Shui's plot is not padding; this character has a great use and was designed long ago.
