Chapter 1332: If you can't talk it out, then fight it out

Time is a quack doctor that claims to cure all diseases, but Li Xuewu would say time isn't the antidote; the antidote is hidden within time.

Just like this year's October 1st, the capital was a little less noisy, and the autumn wind took away the pain in many people's memories.

Young people who like to have fun came back and said that the leaves on the Western Hills had already turned yellow, preparing for winter in advance.

If people had the wisdom of big trees, they wouldn't have to suffer so much sudden pain.

In the end, one must look forward; even if there was too much suffering in the past, it was just past suffering.

If they heard there was a literary performance somewhere, or a movie being shown at night, the citizens would inevitably take their families to watch it.

This year's National Day had a unique joy, originating from the Liangma River Ecological Industrial Zone, which had already been independently planned and constructed.

Many citizens who liked to listen to the radio knew that the original Red Star Rolling Mill had been promoted to the Red Star Steel Group.

The Liangma River Ecological Zone, enclosed and constructed by the Red Star Steel Group, had been under construction for two full years and was not yet completed.

Many units in Beijing had participated in the ecological zone's engineering construction to varying degrees, so the level of attention was still very high.

Coupled with the coverage and publicity of the United Industrial Radio Station and the holding of several large-scale performances and trade fairs, this ecological city had attracted the eyes of many people.

With a total investment of over 30 million, the Red Star Factory had created the Group's myth and was continuing this myth story.

As time progressed, many citizens in the eastern city had gradually begun to come into contact with the ecological city's life and industrial environment.

Some citizens were even eyeing the activities here; if there was a trade fair, or an industrial exhibition, literary performance, etc., they would inevitably find relationships or opportunities to participate.

One could buy some high-demand materials here and see some strange gadgets and foreigners.

The French Cultural Exhibition Hall, which was under construction, was an important location for many young people to ride their bicycles to check in.

Young people's steps were always light and happy; they would be the first to know where there were fresh things in this ancient city.

Because their hearts were young, their acceptance of fresh things was high, and they understood more about the concept of the ecological city.

Often, citizens in the capital wanted to know more about the ecological city, still through popularization by young people at home.

Cleaner roads, more modernized city parks, more peculiar ecological office configurations, and forms of entertainment.

It was autumn. After two years of unremitting efforts, the Liangma River ecological zone section river channel rectification project was perfectly completed.

At the same time, the water amusement project around the ecological city was opened. Citizens could take their whole family out, rent a small boat, and row on the wide river surface, looking at the fresh flowers and green grass planted on both sides of the river channel.

Starting from the pier, not far away, one could see the Red Star Steel Group's equestrian club, with some sturdy horses running along the riverbank.

The natives who had lived in the capital for a long time couldn't feel the changes in this city so clearly.

But walking on the highways of the ecological city and rowing in the river channel, one could especially see this kind of change.

It was cross-generational, with characteristics that were one era ahead of the city's progress speed, which could be reflected from every detail.

Beijing's lighting project had also been done in the past few years, but it wasn't very good. This point was different when looking at the ecological city.

To celebrate the arrival of October 1st, the Red Star Steel Group Engineering General Company worked overtime and finally completed the basic lighting project.

Including the riverbanks, streetlights, building lights, etc., thanks to the independent power station that was about to start operation, the Group didn't skimp on this project.

During the day, citizens poured into the ecological city to see the garden lotus flowers and stroll through the commercial street that was growing.

At night, these activities could still be carried out. The Security Department recruited a new batch of security forces to fully guarantee the personal and property safety of citizens.

It was also from this day, October 1st, that the Liangma River Ecological Industrial Zone became the only bright spot area outside the capital.

This year, the Red Star Steel Group still prepared a large-scale literary report performance, which was different from being held only in the internal stadium in the past. This year's performance location was set on the East Is Red Square.

Citizens of Beijing no longer needed to pull relationships and walk through doors to follow into the factory area to watch the program.

Starting at 1:00 PM, the main road entering the Liangma River Industrial Zone began to be closed, and only security vehicles were allowed to enter.

Moving further in, both sides of the East Is Red Square were completely closed, and even bicycles were not allowed to enter; only citizens were allowed to walk in.

The wide East Is Red Square, as well as the wide park opposite the square, river cruise ships, and the other side of the river, all became viewing platforms.

Originally, the Red Star Steel Group had more than 30,000 employees in Beijing, and with their families, the positions for holding literary performances in the stadium were very tight. Now, it didn't seem easy on the East Is Red Square either.

In this era, there were really not many companies like the Red Star Steel Group that shared literary performances with ordinary citizens.

Originally, it was the enterprise's own literary and art troupe, and it could only serve employees and their families. Why should it be shown to ordinary citizens?

Every system had its own literary and art troupe, and no one was seen organizing public literary performances often.

This time, the Red Star Steel Group really made a big advertisement and truly publicized the enterprise culture.

What did the literary performance perform?

You couldn't say chorus, solo, clapper talk, crosstalk, etc., because this was the expression form of art.

Facing the newly established literary and art troupe was the question from the Group's leadership: what were they going to perform?

With the important instructions and speeches of Li Xuewu at the literary and art troupe establishment meeting, the literary and art troupe quickly gave the answer.

Focus on highlighting the excellent work achievements and moving deeds of the Red Star Steel Group's front-line employees, and focus on rendering the Group's entrepreneurial spirit.

Organize editors and directors to sort out the excellent news content that happened within the Group in the past year.

Just like what was mentioned when the Secretary-General organized the literary and art symposium, move the excellent deeds that happened around the Group's employees onto the stage.

At the same time, integrate the spirit of the organization and the above into the performance content, closely following the theme of the times.

Therefore, the program list seen by the Group's leadership, or the performance plan reported by the Publicity Department, had no "flattery" content, did not see the wisdom of praising the leadership at all, and did not see bragging.

Some Group leaders might have opinions—how could all the programs be so "grounded"?

Even some programs that reflected the characteristics of the times and publicized the spirit instructions were performed from the perspective of Group employees.

These questions reached the ears of the person in charge of the literary and art troupe. Literary and art troupe leader Jiang Peiqun found Li Xuewu here and implicitly expressed her worries.

Li Xuewu listened to her report and told her very calmly not to worry about anything, just prepare according to the performance plan.

In his words, who was professional?

The Group's leadership didn't know a fart about literary performances.

Of course, Jiang Peiqun heard the Secretary-General say this, but she didn't dare to bring it back and could only understand it herself.

But it was this attitude of contempt that gave her confidence in the subsequent work and dared to face the questioning of the Group's leadership.

The situation was indeed the case. She thought about it carefully—which Group leader was from a professional background in literary performance?

When it came to the mastery of the spirit and the control of the main essence of literature and art, they might not be the most professional.

However, the Red Star Steel Group had professionals, and could they be more professional than the Secretary-General?

If this program list hadn't been reviewed by the Secretary-General, and the Secretary-General hadn't watched the program rehearsal, could it have appeared on the leadership's desk?

Therefore, Jiang Peiqun realized for the first time and learned the essence of the Secretary-General's work: don't take what the leader said as an imperial edict.

They were also people, and there were times when they made mistakes. The questioning expressed was more likely to be wrong thinking.

It was wrong to take the leader's words as farting, but there was no need to be overly anxious and worried.

To do a report performance, what Jiang Peiqun had to do was to withstand the pressure from above and hand over trust to the directors and organizational personnel below.

With the Secretary-General's instructions, the literary and art performance opened successfully.

"This year's literary performance program is a bit bold."

In the best position facing the stage, the heads of various departments of the Group and representatives of excellent employees sat around the leaders.

On the periphery were the viewing positions of ordinary employees, families, and citizens.

There were no restrictions on the seats for watching the performance. Li Xuewu had been following Li Huai De, so he sat beside him.

To the left and right were the Group's leaders, and behind them were the heads of various departments, as well as several service personnel.

The Publicity Department specially arranged for Jiang Peiqun to sit behind Li Huai De. If the leader had questions, it would be convenient to provide answers.

When she heard Director Li holding the program list and saying this sentence, her heart almost jumped to her throat.

But a sentence from the Secretary-General resolved the tense atmosphere at the scene.

"What is bold is not the program, but the demands of employees and the masses."

Li Xuewu said to Li Huai De with a smile: "I told the comrades of the literary and art troupe that there should be literature and art, and there should also be criticism."

"If their criticism is not in place and the employees and masses are not satisfied, I will criticize them."

"Hahaha—" Li Huai De smiled, put down the program list, looked at the front, and said: "You moved supervision work onto the stage."

"That's the effect I want." Li Xuewu nodded and said seriously to Li Huai De: "Prevent problems before they happen, and educate through entertainment."

"Mm, let's look at the program effect first."

Li Huai De didn't deny his intention and nodded imperceptibly, raising his hand to signal the front.

Saying it well is not as good as doing it well. Li Huai De listened to his mastery of the spiritual context and literary performance, but no matter how lively it was, it wasn't as lively as watching it. It was a mule or a horse, so take it out for a walk.

This literary performance of the Red Star Steel Group could be described as bold.

Facing ordinary citizens, it dared to make literary changes, and even arranged satire and criticism content in literary programs.

This was rare in the literary performance environment where the situation was excellent and everyone was singing and dancing.

The first program of the opening was the song "Red Star Shining." Four male and female singers in bright costumes stood in front of the stage and sang this self-edited song that closely followed the Group's name.

Over the past three years, many excellent literary and art workers had been absorbed, in addition to actors, there were many behind-the-scenes personnel.

They were fully capable of creating songs and literary programs.

The stage was wide, enough for dance accompaniment to set off the magnificent atmosphere of the song, and the singers' voices were loud and pleasant. Under the sound amplification conditions of this era, it was truly a test of singing skills.

The literary and art troupe arranged 16 high-power speakers they could find on both sides of the square to ensure the best sound amplification effect.

At least it had to be guaranteed that the Group's leadership and the vast number of employees and their families could hear it and hear it well.

"Well, the lyrics are written well, and the song is edited well."

The song ended, the host went on stage, and Li Huai De clapped while turning back to the comrades of the Publicity Department: "The actors sang well too."

"Thank you for Director Li's praise." Jiang Peiqun's face turned red, and she replied excitedly: "We will continue to work hard."

Li Huai De just praised it casually and didn't really want to praise their work, at least not now.

What he cared about was the quality of the song and the content of the lyrics.

The actors sang really well, expressing the excellent qualities of the song and also conveying the meaning of the lyrics.

Writing lyrics required a core. The lyrics of "Red Star Shining" closely followed the development changes of the Red Star Factory over the past three years and the excellent achievements made.

It was said that Li Xuewu made harsh words in the literary and art troupe, not allowing anyone to create works of flattery.

Originally, the Group's leadership was dissatisfied with his instructions and thoughts, but now it seemed that they had completely misunderstood the Secretary-General.

High-end flattery often manifested in ordinary content in the form of reversal and was more acceptable.

"Red Star Shining" praised the development of the Red Star Factory. When mentioning development, who should everyone think of first?

Of course, it was Director Li. It was he who first proposed the opinion of three-industry industrial change to change the development pattern and scientific technology to improve productivity.

It was Director Li who adjusted the development direction after mastering the Red Star Factory and created the myth of groupization.

Therefore, Red Star shines, shining for Director Li's correct leadership.

Every sentence in the lyrics didn't mention Li Huai De, but every sentence didn't leave Li Huai De.

You tell me, how could it not make the hard-working Director Li laugh heartily and praise it repeatedly?

Songs and lyrics had to be understood. In the eyes of ordinary employees, this song praising the development of the Red Star Factory and reflecting excellent leadership was not out of place and could be said to be a correct realistic portrayal.

Therefore, their acceptance of this song was also very high, and the feedback applause was naturally very enthusiastic.

However, most people just listened to it and didn't understand the lyrics, or didn't think deeply, just feeling it was good and lively.

So when the applause rang out, they followed suit, and in Li Huai De's view, it was the affirmation of the masses for him.

Mm, finally someone understands my hard work—

"What? You still want money?"

On the stage, the sketch actor used exaggerated movements to express doubt and anger: "Why? Aren't you serving the people?"

"I am serving the people, that's right." Another actor in a Zhongshan suit said arrogantly: "But I am not serving you specifically. If you want to work in the factory, you have to show—"

"Show, you don't even understand this?"

The male actor pointed his finger at the female actor and narrowed his eyes, questioning: "Do you really think you can enter the factory by ability?"

"Hehe—a joke—"

He turned around and faced the audience with disdain, saying: "If there is no show, then just wait."

"You—you—" The female actor pointed at him excitedly, wanting to scold him, but didn't know what to scold.

Many people in the audience felt the same way. Although they clearly knew it was a program, they still glared at the man in the Zhongshan suit.

At the scene of tens of thousands of people, except for some noise, more people focused their attention on the stage, and their emotions were also mobilized.

That female comrade on the stage was a portrayal of many people. In order to find a job, she had to "show a little."

They were all looking forward to the continuation of the program on the stage, wanting to see what the result of that female comrade was.

The result was, of course, positive energy.

After determining the development direction of groupization, the Red Star Factory took personnel reform as the main breakthrough direction, strictly investigating, strictly examining, and strictly pursuing responsibility.

The stage just happened to show this point. The personnel arranged by the Zhongshan suit cadre were returned because they didn't pass the exam.

And he himself was seriously dealt with because his evil deeds were exposed. That female comrade participated in the employee recruitment exam with the status of a middle school graduate and obtained a pass with excellent results.

The definition of the program was very clear, which was to reflect the changes in the form of employment before and after the personnel reform of the Red Star Factory.

Taking assessment as the standard for judging employment, taking strength as the threshold for progress, it reflected the fairness and justice of the Group's personnel system.

Such a simple intention, a completely guessable reversal and ending, but it received unexpected feedback effects.

The applause at the scene was very enthusiastic. The most enthusiastic applause was when the Zhongshan suit cadre was announced to be under investigation, which showed how much the employees and masses hated this kind of person.

The program was fake, but the matter was real.

Many people were thinking about their own experiences when they entered the factory, and those who had received money were also thinking about how confused they were at the beginning.

The significance of warning education was there, the publicity of personnel reform was also there, and it made employees realize the fundamental significance of personnel reform.

It was the form of this program that made some people's hearts skip a beat. Using literature and art to reflect criticism—what about other forms?

The discipline inspection work of the Red Star Steel Group had been transferred from the hands of Secretary-General Li Xuewu to the hands of Deputy Director Gu.

Now it seemed that the normalization and diversification of discipline inspection work had been formed, and many people were weighing this pressure.

Li Huai De said before the performance started that this year's program content was a bit bold, and now everyone felt it.

"Enterprise culture publicity is done well."

From the feedback at the scene, Li Huai De was very satisfied. His angle of looking at problems was also different.

He patted Li Xuewu's arm on the chair armrest lightly and whispered: "Must grasp the pulse and prepare for long-term publicity."

Li Xuewu just nodded and accepted his request.

Why do enterprise culture publicity?

This involved the issue of internal and external. Some people who did publicity management in enterprises might know this point.

Internally, enhance employee self-confidence, improve the Group's cohesion, and stimulate the vitality of enterprise development.

Externally, expand the brand image and provide strong support for business, personnel, publicity, and other work.

This literary performance not only arranged this satirical and critical program, but also crosstalk.

Internal surgery is also a kind of enterprise culture.

Old Li saw more advanced content, which was the tolerance and progress of the Red Star Steel Group under his leadership.

Usually, he did a lot of work, but this work couldn't reflect actual value. How did the leaders above look at his work?

Now that there was this grounded publicity method, there was no need to report to the leaders, but to let the leaders learn from the mouths of ordinary masses.

You say, is this kind of publicity advanced or not?

In short, the vast masses were very satisfied with this performance, and the Group's employees and cadres were also very satisfied.

The Group's leaders were even more so. Publicity work still paid attention to professionalism, and they really didn't understand the twists and turns here.

It was really unexpected that the program could still be reversed like this.

Therefore, for the rumors coming out of the agency, someone said they didn't know a fart about literature and art, so they turned a blind eye and didn't listen.

On the day of the literary performance, the cultural exhibition held in the Industrial Exhibition Hall also opened.

Taking advantage of the popularity of the day, it collected a lot of ticket money.

Just when the masses were actively participating in various activities organized by the Group, Li Huai De took Li Xuewu and others onto a passenger ship bound for Jinmen.

I've worked so hard, can't I enjoy it?

This trip didn't catch a large passenger ship, but a small passenger ship newly put into navigation was transferred.

500 tons, can accommodate 40 passengers, faster speed.

Li Huai De didn't take risks easily. However, he had great confidence in this shipping lane and the manufacturing technology of Yingcheng ships.

What he had more confidence in was that there were quite a few Group leaders on the ship.

If you die, everyone dies together?

In addition to Li Huai De and Li Xuewu, Gu Weijie, Xue Zhifu, Su Weide, and Jing Yunong were also there.

Group leadership team members rarely traveled collectively like this. In addition to no necessary business needs, they also had to emphasize safety.

Just like the fear-of-death Old Li thought, if the ship really capsized and everyone on board was accounted for, what would the Group do?

Li Xuewu didn't know his thoughts, otherwise he would have kicked him down. There was no such thing as wanting the ship to capsize as soon as he got on it.

The Group's leadership team had eleven people, and now six came out. Old Li gave the name of vacation, but everyone knew what it actually was.

Lu Xun once said, a hundred years of cultivation to cross the same boat, a thousand years of cultivation to sleep on the same pillow.

He wanted to get on this boat, so everyone would have a hundred years of fate and be more united.

It was just that he didn't know that there was a thousand years of fate on this boat.

The small boat wasn't suitable for a tea party, and after watching the performance all afternoon, everyone was very tired.

After getting on the ship, the leadership team members returned to their respective rest rooms to raise their spirits. There were still programs in Jinmen.

Of course, not literary programs.

This trip to Jinmen, although Old Li said it was to win people's hearts, actually had work significance and purpose.

After several months of construction, the seaside resort of the Red Star Steel Group in Jinmen already had a prototype.

External business was still not possible, but it was okay to supply leaders to inspect and rest.

When Old Li came out, he was saying that everyone should enjoy a rare vacation and could take a boat out to sea to fish.

Li Xuewu had no thoughts about his words; he was just bragging.

Not to mention a fishing boat, he didn't even dare to take the official plane manufactured by France, and the first opportunity was given to Su Weide.

Speaking of this trip, Su Weide was very satisfied, even a little proud.

Being able to use the Group's official plane to go to Yangcheng for a meeting was also very face-saving at the meeting.

How did you come here?

Came by train, came by boat, and really said came by plane, but it was by civil aviation passenger plane, selling a lot of face.

In the eyes of fellow travelers, being able to take civil aviation was already very good. How many people came by green-skinned train?

Su Weide remained silent until someone noticed him and asked. He then restrainedly replied: Came by our Group's plane.

Damn! Who knew how round this beep he made was!

Facing the surprised and envious eyes of the crowd, the resentment toward Li Huai De in the past had dissipated a lot.

After all, he was an old comrade, and he valued the unity of the leadership team very much. Su Weide was also secretly proud.

Proud of what?

You, Old Li, aren't you arrogant, holding a pen of the Group and playing one-man show within the leadership team?

But the leaders above must have opinions, so we came. Isn't this you starting to please us?

What? You say you didn't please?

Impossible, I don't believe it—

Su Weide was very certain that Li Huai De's instruction to arrange for him to take the newly delivered official plane to Yangcheng for a meeting was to please him.

Except for this reason, he couldn't think of a second possibility.

You look at this time again, Li Huai De didn't invite anyone else, but brought him along. Why was this?

Among the six people on this trip, only he entered the factory after the New Year.

In other words, did it mean that his status and importance had already been compared in parallel with others?

He had reasons to think so, and he also had capital to be proud of.

From February when he decided to come to the Red Star Factory, eight months had passed until today.

In these eight months, in addition to the initial adaptation and adjustment, he had paid a lot of hard work and effort in the several projects and work he was responsible for.

It was precisely because of his efforts that the competent department could orderly carry out the reform work of the large department.

Although during this period, Big Li and Little Li set him up and divided the discipline inspection work, didn't this also reflect his righteousness?

Without his generosity, wouldn't the unity within the Group be destroyed?

Furthermore, after the Quality, Safety, and Environmental Protection Department was established, the organizational structure and the framework of the large department weren't all work he did.

With the work experience of discipline inspection supervision, he really had certain advantages in management such as quality, safety, and environmental protection.

Therefore, do you dare to say that Li Huai De doesn't value his opinions and doesn't accept his feelings?

This... it really might be, but absolutely not much.

Li Xuewu returned to the rest room and just lay down. Before his eyes could close, Jing Yunong walked in.

"Your courage is really big—"

He looked at Deputy Director Jing amusedly and reminded: "This ship is so small, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at us."

"I'm here to talk about serious business, why do you say that." Jing Yunong frowned slightly and looked at him: "It seems like I'm here for an affair."

"Mm, it's indeed like this." Li Xuewu nodded and said seriously: "We are all serious people."

Jing Yunong's mouth twitched. How was she supposed to answer this?

Little brother, it's fine to lie to outsiders, but you're lying to your own people too?

Serious or not, do you know me, or do I know you?

Jing Yunong was speechless because she really wanted to talk about serious business, but after Li Xuewu said this, it was really hard to say.

You say she emphasizes seriousness, but the two of them are in this relationship, and they know it well.

You say she defaults to this teasing, it seems like she really wants that, so it's a bit unserious.

Otherwise, why say Li Xuewu is bad to the bone? One sentence pushed her against the wall; going up wasn't right, and coming down wasn't right.

She couldn't go up and down, so what did that become?

"Or should I sit up?"

Li Xuewu pretended not to understand her words and played a pun humorously.

Jing Yunong rolled her eyes, folded her arms, and crossed her right leg, not wanting to look at him again.

She saw through the bad intentions Li Xuewu was playing at a glance; wasn't this forcing her to admit that her purpose for coming wasn't pure?

"What did you talk to Director Li about, bringing us out to engage in a false unity of harmony?"

"Look, isn't this wronging Director Li." Li Xuewu sat up and looked at her: "If Director Li really heard this, how cold his heart would be. He is kind-hearted."

"Tsk tsk—" Listening to Li Xuewu's sarcastic words, Jing Yunong understood this kind of sarcasm too well.

"I also want to ask you, what exactly do you want to do recently?"

She frowned slightly and glanced out the window. She couldn't see clearly through the white curtains, but she could feel the shaking of the ship.

"If you have dissatisfaction with the work handover, you can completely bring it up at the meeting. Why must you—"

Jing Yunong didn't finish her sentence, but her meaning was already expressed clearly—she didn't want Li Xuewu to come hard.

Others didn't understand Li Xuewu, but she knew his temper.

Eat soft but not hard. Li Huai De had already determined to support him in presiding over the work in Steel City, but he still had hesitation and reservations.

On one hand, he indulged the discussions in the agency and dismantled his influence to see how much strength Li Xuewu could show.

On the other hand, he feared Li Xuewu's fish-dying-net-breaking and showed an attitude of fully supporting him in presiding over Liaodong industry.

But in his statement, he was restrained and didn't clarify whether it was to fully take over Dong Wenxue's work or only be responsible for metallurgical industry.

Now it was forcing Li Xuewu to break in hard, taking the opportunity to deal with different voices in the leadership team to unite more people.

That was to say, the Secretary-General wanted to go out, but some people in the leadership team disagreed, so Old Li wanted to play with people's hearts.

The Secretary-General wanted to leave, he couldn't keep him, but he had to exchange for enough political benefits, right?

Dong Wenxue returned, and the Group's organizational ecology would welcome major adjustments and changes. Wasn't this Old Li's opportunity to stabilize and unite?

It was just that he was also hesitant and delayed. According to the way Li Xuewu did work in the past, he would definitely land smoothly.

Li Xuewu wanted to be responsible for Liaodong industrial work, so he wouldn't give others a chance to trip him up.

Now Old Li was vague about whether Li Xuewu was coming soft or hard.

Look at what Gu Weijie said to Li Xuewu—wasn't it because she saw Old Li's two-faced nature?

She was reminding Li Xuewu to be careful of the leadership team members falling into the well.

Once Li Xuewu and Dong Wenxue were in a situation of connecting the past and the future, don't blame everyone for dividing their influence and interests.

There were only so many cakes in the leadership team. You eat one more bite, and he eats one less bite. Everyone was in a relationship of cooperation and competition.

Among the leadership team members, Li Xuewu dared to say that there were direct interest relationships, except for Dong Wenxue, only Jing Yunong.

Wouldn't Dong Wenxue betray him?

Probably not, because the relationship between them had long been not a simple teacher-student relationship, and there was the involvement of the Gu family.

With Jing Yunong?

Mm, a bit complicated, hard to say.

Even if Jing Yunong betrayed him, he couldn't entangle anything, and he couldn't point at the other party's nose and scold.

The relationship between the two was unspeakable, so what reason and condition were there to restrain the other party?

Only when they needed each other, and only when they achieved each other, were they the most trusted by each other.

Now Li Xuewu could believe in Jing Yunong because she needed him, needed the influence generated by him and Dong Wenxue during this handover process.

The Group's leadership team members all thought about them not connecting, appearing as a gap, hoping to divide this influence.

Had they ever thought about how much positive influence it would have once the two successfully completed the handover?

Dong Wenxue returned and could get his support in Liaodong. This Deputy Director's power would be further increased.

And Li Xuewu, this Secretary-General, after being fully responsible for industrial work, would show strong management ability.

One year is Secretary-General, two years is possible, and in less than two years, Li Huai De and other leadership team members would have to accept the fact that he became Deputy Director.

Whoever stood by their side would be able to harvest the greatest benefits by then.

Now, Jing Yunong chose to stand in line according to her past understanding and contact with Li Xuewu.

Since she had already chosen to stand by Li Xuewu and them, she had reason to care about his every move.

It was hope for his success, and also not wanting her own failure.

For her concern, or rather worry, Li Xuewu understood very well and hoped to make a positive response.

However, his plan was too risky, so he was worried that Jing Yunong lacked the necessary confidence and messed up her heart and rhythm.

So, some things could be said, and some things couldn't be said.

Perhaps feeling the danger behind his silence, Jing Yunong's folded legs couldn't help but tighten; this was a manifestation of nervousness.

"You hit the Beijing Freight Station with a stick. What you want isn't just the effect of knocking the mountain and shaking the tiger, right?"

She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked at Li Xuewu, testing him: "What you want is absolutely not deterrence, but counterattack, right?"

"You still want to come hard. You want to solve all the future troubles before leaving, and you want to break all the tentacles that have reached out."

Jing Yunong's tone became more and more firm, and her attitude became serious. "You want to eliminate future troubles once and for all. At least hitting this time can give you enough time in the next six months to control Liaodong."

"Li Xuewu, don't be too crazy."

She reminded seriously: "You are still young, and you have plenty of time and means to deal with these problems, and let others see your efforts and sincerity."

"What are you in a hurry for?"

Li Xuewu didn't need to answer. She could see the firmness in Li Xuewu's eyes; this was the firmness of an arrow that had no turning back.

She was really a bit scared now. Li Xuewu was unscrupulous in doing things, and even Li Huai De would be liver-trembling, right?

The Group might have ignored Li Xuewu's energy. He left the security group, his comfort zone, and handed over the influence zone of the three-industry industry.

Now he accepted Bu Qingfang as Deputy Secretary-General, continuing the reality of dividing his power.

And other leadership team members were also sharpening their knives, preparing to give him a blow on the day of his "ascension."

Was Li Xuewu so easy to threaten?

At the critical moment, he dared to show his sword, and even dared to make a fish-dying-net-breaking move.

He was too young. Even if the net was broken, he had time and opportunity to make up for it, and more energy and ability to start over.

The Red Star Steel Group was participated in and built by him. Many people knew it and recognized his ability.

Three years, he could afford to consume it. At worst, change to another unit and start over.

But other leadership team members, including Li Huai De, didn't have this time and energy.

Start over?

The Red Star Steel Group could only run at a faster speed. It wouldn't work if it was slow, because there were bad guys behind.

Therefore, the contradiction between Li Xuewu and other members, the contradiction of resource competition, had appeared.

Li Huai De's move to determine Li Xuewu as his successor last year was a behavior of setting up a target.

Li Huai De took Li Xuewu as a pot, and he took Li Xuewu as a target. Neither of them let go of the other; both were bad guys.

Jing Yunong cherished this situation very much and didn't want Li Xuewu to mess it up, so her tone was full of persuasion.

"Or I'll say it." Seeing Li Xuewu still didn't reply, she said tentatively: "I'll help you withstand the pressure at the meeting."

"How much can you withstand?"

Li Xuewu faced her question for the first time and asked very seriously: "How many people's pressure can you help me withstand?"

"I want to ensure that Deputy Director Dong returns to Beijing smoothly, and I can successfully succeed with the status and influence of Secretary-General."

He asked frankly: "In the leadership team, who can you influence, and determine that he will support this intention of mine?"

Jing Yunong couldn't answer this question because her own influence was really limited, and she couldn't accurately contact anyone.

If you want to talk about normal work, she could discuss and study with other members, and then form a majority opinion at the meeting.

But on the matter of Li Xuewu going to Steel City, no one would be willing to compromise with her, and she couldn't come up with enough benefits to exchange.

She was willing, willing to give up the benefits in her hands now, to bet on Li Xuewu's future, but she really didn't have many benefits.

She was willing, but Li Xuewu was reluctant.

If you want to talk about exchange, Li Xuewu could indeed get a few votes by using the relationships and benefits in his hands, but he felt it wasn't enough, and he wasn't willing.

Since they couldn't talk it out, then fight it out, fight out the other party's intention, fight out his own influence, and open up the next situation.

He wasn't deliberately making things difficult for Jing Yunong, using this question to prevaricate her and refuse her kindness, but the seriousness of this question.

He didn't allow his plan to fail, and even less allowed his interests to be damaged.

This time he wasn't targeting someone, but the attitude of the leadership team collective toward him.

Since Li Huai De wanted to weigh his weight, and other members also wanted to see his energy, then do something.

If they didn't let them see it, they wouldn't be reconciled to just sending him to Steel City and fully mastering Liaodong's industrial development.

Li Xuewu had no high-end principles in doing things.

Keep three points of greed for money and lust, to prevent being out of tune with the secular world; keep seven points of seriousness, to plan to be safe and stable for a lifetime.

Reveal three points of confusion, to hide from heaven, earth, and people; hide seven points of being sober alone, to see through the red dust.

Be bad when you should be bad, be good when you should be good.

Burn incense when meeting Buddha, pull a gun when meeting a thief.

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 1333 =====

Reveal three parts confusion and helplessness to deceive the world and remain unnoticed; hide seven parts sobriety amidst the drunk to see through the vanity of the world.

Be bad when it is time to be bad, and be good when it is time to be good.

When meeting a Buddha, offer incense; when meeting a thief, draw a gun.
