Chapter 1472: You also spoke ill of her?

"Are they planning to sell the airport?"

Just as the Volga M24 drove out of the guesthouse gate, Zhou Xiaoling couldn't help but ask: "Are they planning to sell it to our Group?"

"Mm, there is such a willingness."

Li Xuewu leaned back on the seat relatively relaxed, slightly narrowed his eyes and said: "It hasn't been decided yet."

"Is it because our Group is unwilling? Or is there some problem here?"

Zhou Xiaoling seemed very curious and concerned about this matter, and actually took the initiative to inquire.

Li Xuewu turned his head to look at her, and then said: "What do you think, the problems here."

She was the one who asked first; Second Brother's counter-question this time made her suddenly freeze, and then her heart started thumping.

What does this mean?

Is it that he thinks she asked too much, or is he testing her ability and vision in doing things?

If it's the former, she must pay attention to her sense of propriety; if it's the latter...

Zhou Xiaoling thought carefully, wanting to give Second Brother a very satisfactory answer.

Li Xuewu seemed to be really testing her, and also seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for her by not answering this question.

Just as she was racking her brains, recalling the dialogue between Second Brother and that Shenfei Vice President at the dinner table, and thinking about the question Second Brother had just raised, Li Xuewu closed his eyes slightly, as if he had fallen asleep.

For a moment, the car cabin was left with only the noise of the car, and Zhou Xiaoling's increasingly rapid breathing under tension.

"Is it because the investment cost of the airport purchase is not proportional to the profit? Or is the operating cost too high?"

Zhou Xiaoling wasn't a girl with an empty head, but due to her own limitations, her vision couldn't reach further.

Li Xuewu opened his eyes at this time, looked at her, and said seriously: "Neither."

"Ah? —" Zhou Xiaoling had summarized her opinion from the dialogue at the dinner table just now; was this still wrong?

Li Xuewu's expression remained the same, and he said indifferently: "Haven't you heard of asking a high price and paying back the money on the spot?"

"You mean—" Zhou Xiaoling seemed to suddenly understand, but felt it was incredible, and widened her eyes.

"Mm, it's just a means to lower the price." Li Xuewu said indifferently: "Any cost investment is not worth mentioning in the face of a bottom-fishing price."

"The airport is never the root of profit; aviation is. Do you understand aviation management?"

He sized Zhou Xiaoling up and down and suggested: "When you have time, read more books in this area."

"Second Brother—" Zhou Xiaoling didn't dare to understand his words, looking at him timidly and happily.

Li Xuewu didn't continue this topic, as if he had never thrown out any tempting conditions.

Fishing, you know; the fish is already hooked, why are you still throwing bait into the water? This is the time to pull.

"Under what conditions should the Group take over this airport?"

Seeming to have received Li Xuewu's affirmation and encouragement, Zhou Xiaoling also bravely asked what she was thinking.

Li Xuewu didn't hide it from her either, explaining casually: "There is no absolute suitable condition; any cooperation and transaction requires extreme pulling and compromise."

"The final result is nothing more than them not being able to hold on, or us seeing good and stopping."

He looked at the road ahead, reached out and patted the driver Yu Zhe's shoulder, and instructed: "Go to the department store."

"Okay, leader." Yu Zhe didn't talk much, didn't even talk, and only answered Li Xuewu once today.

Zhou Xiaoling heard him say he was going to the department store, and her heart jumped again, her face slightly rosy.

Being with Second Brother was full of uncertain excitement and stimulation, as well as fantasy and surprise.

"Then—if, I mean if, they really accept your suggestion and decide to cooperate?"

Zhou Xiaoling recalled Second Brother's suggestion at the dinner table for the other party to take the route of cooperative joint operation and build large airplanes themselves.

"This is enterprise operation; where are there so many 'ifs'." Li Xuewu looked back at her and said: "Have you heard any leader of the Group say these two words?"

"Ah—" Zhou Xiaoling learned a useless piece of knowledge today; it turns out leaders don't say "if".

"Do you think they will listen to my suggestion?"

Li Xuewu smiled slightly and said: "Do you believe it? Wang Xin might even think this is a trap."

"Not just Wang Xin; he will report the conversation between us today to the leaders of Shenfei, and they will also think my suggestion is a pit."

"Why?" Zhou Xiaoling especially liked discussing work with him, as if she had a sense of achievement.

This was the Secretary-General of the Group; she was just a flight attendant.

"They care too much about the cooperation with our Group, especially this Wang Xin."

Li Xuewu had a meaningful smile at the corner of his mouth, looked at the front, and explained: "His understanding and interest in the Group far exceed the business scope of a Vice Factory Director of an airplane manufacturing plant."

"Understanding our Group so carefully, it seems like he knows everything, but actually he doesn't know and pretends to know."

"You mean he knows too much?"

Zhou Xiaoling seemed to understand some of his explanation, and was still confused about some.

Li Xuewu nodded and said: "The significance of cooperation is mutual benefit for both sides, but he is guarding against us winning too much. Don't you think he was wrong from the beginning?"

"He is afraid that we will take advantage of them, or even step on them to ascend to the sky in one step."

"Ah—so that's how it is?"

Zhou Xiaoling suddenly realized and said: "But looking at him just now, he seemed very enthusiastic; he doesn't look like a suspicious person."

"Just a disguise; the more you lack something, the more you have to pretend. He is still too simple."

Li Xuewu tidied up the jacket on his body, turned his head to look at Zhou Xiaoling, and said: "My move is called 'using their own strategy against them', impossible to guard against."

"They won't accept my proposal; they can only more actively seek to sell that airport."

He patted his knees with his palm, let out a long breath, and said: "If they accept my suggestion, then they have to be prepared for not getting profit dividends for fifty years."

"Because airport operation doesn't make money?"

Zhou Xiaoling asked curiously: "Since airport operation can't be profitable, then how can aviation achieve profit?"

"The value of some commodities far exceeds the cost of aviation itself; this is called profit."

Li Xuewu looked at the department store appearing in front of the car, smiled, and said: "Sometimes the channel itself is a commodity with high-value attributes."

"Have you ever thought, if the Group uses that airport to open up routes to Hong Kong, Tokyo, and even Paris, what will the Group get from this aviation route?"

"This sweater is quite beautiful."

Li Xuewu took Zhou Xiaoling to shop at the department store, first went to the wine cabinet, and chose a red wine similar to the one Zhou Wang Yamei hid.

The brand, of course, wasn't the same; the one Zhou Wang Yamei hid couldn't be bought in the country.

Then someone asked, can red wine be bought in the country in this era?

The answer is yes. There's no need to explain too much here, to avoid the suspicion of popular science; it can really be bought at the department store counter.

Zhou Xiaoling felt the weight of the red wine in her hand, her face slightly red; those who didn't know would think she had stolen a drink again, but in reality?

Don't know if it was shame or guilt.

After buying the red wine, Li Xuewu took her to the clothing area and took a fancy to a red sweater hanging on the wall.

In these years, wool production was insufficient, and wool yarn was a high-demand commodity, and it wasn't until more than ten years later that it eased slightly.

How did ordinary people solve the demand for sweaters?

Generally, they wouldn't buy finished sweaters in the mall. Although machine-knitted sweaters were tighter and more fashionable, the price made ordinary wage-earners deterred.

It wasn't that they couldn't afford it, but that there was no cost-effectiveness.

Using the same money and tickets, you could buy wool yarn yourself to knit three sweaters, and besides, sweaters were worn inside.

For families that weren't rich, a wool sweater could be worn for ten years, or even longer, and might even be passed on to the next generation.

Don't think it's an exaggeration; there were old sweaters given directly to children to wear, and there were also those that were unraveled, washed, and re-knitted into smaller sweaters for children. Who in these years hadn't worn old sweaters? Those with different colors were old sweaters.

Of course, Li Xuewu hadn't worn them since he became an adult, and Zhou Xiaoling didn't lack this with her own salary.

But looking at the price tag the waiter glanced at unintentionally, Zhou Xiaoling still widened her eyes in surprise.

Was it knitted with gold thread! Why was it so expensive.

"Second Brother, I have sweaters to wear."

She didn't dare to hold Second Brother's hand in the mall, only touched his arm lightly and explained: "I bought some in the capital a few days ago."

"The style is quite suitable for you, and the color is also good."

Li Xuewu didn't see the price tag, and didn't care even if he did. "Please help us take it down and take a look."

The waiter was just too lazy to explain, not blind; naturally, she could see Li Xuewu's extraordinary nature.

Lu Xun once said, a sentence for walking in the rivers and lakes: respect the clothes first and then the person, respect the skin first and then the soul; if you don't believe it, look at the wine in the cup, every cup is first respected to the rich.

The well-tailored navy blue wool jacket, the black trousers set off the leg shape very evenly, and looking at the leather shoes on his feet, they weren't the style of the mall at all.

Since they weren't bought in the mall, where did they come from? It couldn't be that someone made them for him personally?

Didn't dare to think so, so the answer was this.

It's just that the girl beside him, regardless of dress or temperament, didn't look like the same kind of person.

Listening to the dialogue between the two, it could also be seen that it was this big figure in exquisite clothes who was taking care of this beautiful girl.

Don't think about what the relationship between the two was; since people dared to ask, she dared to show it to the other party.

Even if the other party didn't buy it, it must be because they didn't like the feel, not because they were teasing her.

The clothes were taken down by the waiter at Li Xuewu's request, but it was Zhou Xiaoling who really touched and looked at them.

It was Li Xuewu who patted her shoulder, signaling her to look, so she didn't continue to refuse.

"This is imported, not domestically produced."

The waiter was afraid she wouldn't recognize the goods, so she introduced seriously: "Romanian craftsmanship, came by boat."

"If you like it, try it on." Li Xuewu didn't look at the red slim-fit sweater, but looked at Zhou Xiaoling's eyes when she looked at the sweater, and then suggested.

And without waiting for Zhou Xiaoling to refuse, he asked the waiter: "Can I try it on? Do I need to pay in advance?"

"Try it on first, it doesn't matter."

Seeing Li Xuewu's appearance of not lacking money, and this beautiful girl really wanted to buy it, the waiter didn't care.

She pointed to the compartment inside the counter and said: "You go over there to try it on, that's our fitting room."

"Isn't it troublesome? Thank you."

Zhou Xiaoling also saw that Second Brother was sincere, so she gathered her courage and took the sweater into the counter.

The waiter sized up Li Xuewu and said: "Generally, we don't allow trying on clothes here."

"Understood, thank you."

Li Xuewu smiled slightly, took out money and tickets from his bag, and asked: "How much? Do I need special tickets?"

"Seventy-five yuan, two industrial tickets."

Seeing him really counting money, the waiter couldn't help but explain: "Because it's an imported commodity, industrial tickets are required. We don't need them for domestic wool here."

"Understood, very normal." Li Xuewu knew the meaning of her explanation; some service personnel in the mall would bully customers who didn't understand this, and would be very impatient when explaining, or even pull a long face and pretend not to see.

"You aren't a local, are you."

Seeing him put the money and tickets on the counter and push them over, the waiter said more: "I can tell at a glance that you aren't."

"Why do you ask?" Li Xuewu smiled and asked back: "Is my Northeast accent not heavy?"

"That has nothing to do with this—"

The waiter smiled and explained: "I rarely see customers as polite as you; only people from inside the pass are like this."

"Then you guessed wrong; I am a genuine local." Li Xuewu put away the tickets she had opened and talked nonsense: "My ancestors have lived in Steel City for generations."

"You can really joke—"

The waiter raised her eyebrows, gestured to the clothes on his body, and said: "There's no one in Steel City who dresses like this."

"Oh? What's wrong with my clothes?"

Li Xuewu looked down at the clothes on his body, raised his head, and asked: "Is there anything wrong?"

"Steel City Department Store is the largest and most complete mall in the area, and I've worked here for eight years."

The waiter said confidently: "Not to mention whether I've seen you, just say that we haven't even seen the clothes on your body here."

She pointed to Li Xuewu's collar and said: "I guess there must be no label here; it's handmade, right?"

"Is that so—" Li Xuewu didn't really take off his clothes to verify, just sized up the waiter's proud and confident expression and smiled lightly.

At this time, Zhou Xiaoling walked out of the fitting room; she was no longer the short jacket she came in, but a red ball of fire, a combustion aid for youth.

Li Xuewu raised his head slightly, and the waiter looked at her with full admiration and envy.

A sweater for seventy-five, equivalent to two and a half months' salary of an ordinary worker, she couldn't afford to wear it.

There was only one such sweater in the mall, and putting it out was purely for face; she hadn't thought it could be sold.

"Quite good, wear it."

Li Xuewu nodded with a smile and signaled to her: "It's going to cool down today, pay more attention to cold protection and warmth."

"Thank you, Second Brother—"

Zhou Xiaoling had heard the dialogue at the counter in the fitting room and knew he had already paid.

At this moment, she was like the clothes, her face burning red; she tidied the hair by her ears and went to put on her coat.

In these years, girls' clothes were either pure white or bright red, or gray, black, blue, or green.

Only young girls were willing to wear pure white and bright red, and it was worth showing their young capital.

If you say you're thirty and wear it like this, you'll be gossiped about; they'll say you're dissolute, do you believe it?

"I have work in the afternoon, I'll send you home first, and Yu Zhe will send you to the airport later."

Li Xuewu didn't have money and nowhere to spend it; even if he couldn't remember how much money he had, he wouldn't spend money indiscriminately.

He only bought a red sweater for Zhou Xiaoling and nothing else, and went straight out of the department store building.

Before getting in the car, he looked at his watch and said this to Zhou Xiaoling.

Zhou Xiaoling was a smart girl and naturally understood the significance of Second Brother doing these things today.

Taking her out to eat was because he knew she was yearning for and curious about this kind of life. Buying her expensive clothes was expressing his generosity and care. Decisively telling her he had work in the afternoon was reminding her to pay attention to the relationship between the two.

Finally, arranging for the driver to send her to the airport was indicating that he recognized the relationship between the two.

Just from what she could think of and see today, there were so many complex meanings; she knew the gap between her and Li Xuewu, and the two were simply not on the same line.

"I'll tidy up the hygiene before leaving."

Zhou Xiaoling didn't say anything else, just nodded obediently and said: "If there's anything else, I'll let Jia Geng bring it to you."

Li Xuewu nodded and signaled for her to get in the car together.

Yu Zhe had already heard the dialogue between the two and drove the car toward Guanshan Road without needing instructions.

Regarding the situation that there was one more Zhou Xiaoling beside Li Xuewu, Yu Zhe thought a lot in his heart, but his eyes and mouth were welded shut, and he didn't dare to mention a word.

Even his sister wouldn't be told, because last time he went home on vacation, he only talked about Li Xuewu living in Zhou Wang Yamei's house and was scolded by his sister.

His sister reminded him to pay attention to his identity; as the leader's driver, don't say anything to the outside.

Even his own family shouldn't be trusted.

Since then, he had remembered this lesson, even if he had more palpitations about the gold-rimmed glasses in his heart, he didn't dare to speak out.

There was one more Zhou Xiaoling beside the leader, and it wouldn't be less without her; what was there to be surprised about.

Were there few women coming in and out of this small villa? Sending this Zhou Xiaoling away in the afternoon, wasn't there another one coming tonight.

"Secretary-General, this is President Ding of Capital Auto."

Zhang Jing took the initiative to introduce the two: "This is our Group's Secretary-General."

"Nice to meet you—" Seeing Li Xuewu walk into the room, the bald man sitting on the sofa stood up and took the initiative to reach out to introduce himself: "Capital Auto Ding Zhichen."

"Hello, welcome to Steel City as a guest."

Li Xuewu shook his hand, smiled politely, and said: "Hearing the news from Director Li, I have been waiting for you in Steel City for a long time."

"Busy with trivial matters, unable to control myself."

Ding Zhichen was a bit short, and standing in front of Li Xuewu was very stressful. After a warm handshake, he took a few steps back and sat down again under Li Xuewu's greeting.

"When I came, I went to visit Director Li; he is full of confidence in the cooperation between our two sides and also mentioned many ideas."

"Oh, is that so? That's a good thing."

Li Xuewu smiled casually, nodded and said: "Our Director Li has very strong organizational ability and divergent thinking ability."

"Is that so? That's really amazing."

Ding Zhichen could also be considered an old cadre; how could he not understand his words, and laughed and made a haha.

He hadn't thought that there was discord within the Red Star Steel Group, and the Secretary-General actually turned a blind eye to the attitude of the Group's head, and even had a kind of disdainful attitude.

Before coming, he had also done an investigation. Someone told him that when cooperating with the Red Star Steel Group, talk more to several Vice Presidents in charge of business work, especially Li Xuewu, the Secretary-General in charge of Liaodong industry.

As for Li Huai De, the General Manager of the Red Star Steel Group, if he talks about other work, he must be treated seriously; if he talks about business, just treat it as him farting.

At first, he didn't believe it. Think about it, Li Zong, who led the steel rolling mill to establish the Red Star Steel Group and was recognized by the organization as a star of industrial and economic reform, actually doesn't understand business work? Isn't this nonsense?

But after contact, he knew that listening to Li Zong's nonsense, it was clear that this person's business ability was really not that great.

No matter what specific work he talked about, this General Manager Li could always vaguely bypass it.

What did General Manager Li talk about?

He talked about the development history of the Red Star Steel Group, talked about personnel changes and organizational management; he just didn't talk about business.

Finally, being asked impatiently, he sent him from the capital to Steel City with a pole.

You don't want to talk about business, then point you to a bright path, go communicate with our Secretary-General who understands business and negotiation the least.

Letting the other party come to find Li Xuewu, it can be seen that Old Li was really asked to be anxious, otherwise he wouldn't be so bad.

At the beginning, drinking with the head of Capital Auto and setting this matter, he also had an original intention.

It's just that his original intention had very low durability; the wine hadn't sobered up yet, and he started to retreat.

He also knew his ability and level of looking at business, and he had to have a response to what he promised.

So, go to Steel City to find Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu also learned the ins and outs of this matter after listening to Liu Bin's explanation.

How to say it, Old Li didn't not understand business; he just missed the best opportunity to master business discourse power.

You let him be responsible for the implementation of specific business at this time, and the overall planning and promotion work; does he have this energy and time? His position no longer allows it.

He didn't have a good grasp of business discourse power when he was a deputy, and later he was busy with university learning activities, and chose to delegate power to recruit supporters.

Now he wants to regain the discourse power of business, which is no less than launching a struggle that subverts the existing organizational ecological pattern of the Red Star Steel Group. Does he dare?

He can only look forward and choose to compromise with this organizational ecology that has developed to this day.

Ding Zhichen was full of expectations for this trip to Steel City, especially the meeting with Li Xuewu.

"I heard about you from Director Liu a long time ago, saying that you are the cadre with the most potential in the Red Star Steel Group."

"Overpraised, thank Director Liu for me."

Li Xuewu smiled, without excessive humility, and even less excessive pride; there was only confidence in his own work ability.

Now is not the time for humility; the other party is here to negotiate, and too much humility is lack of confidence.

Ding Zhichen chatted for a few words about the books he had written, and then turned to the topic.

"The cooperation was negotiated by Director Li and Director Liu. I came here this time to discuss the details with you."

He took a document from his secretary and handed it to Li Xuewu, explaining: "This is the cooperation plan we drafted based on the opinions of the two leaders, please take a look."

"Director Li told me that the cooperation with Capital Auto is a strong alliance and a representative of mutual benefit."

Li Xuewu only took the document he handed over but didn't take his words; the document was put aside, and he started to talk nonsense.

"Steel Auto is still very young, even if it has made some achievements, it was completed under the efforts of the collective."

He looked at Ding Zhichen and said: "I heard from Factory Director Lv of Steel Auto that Capital Auto is our first batch of cooperation units in the capital to supply cars to operating companies."

"In March of last year, we bought ten Red Star Antelopes, which were the first generation of Antelopes."

Seeing him not taking the bait, Ding Zhichen knew he still had to circle, so he had to cooperate and look for a breakthrough.

Li Xuewu made a sharp turn, pressed the document on the sofa armrest, and said: "If Director Li didn't mention this plan, I would also have mentioned it."

"Oh? Your meaning is—"

Ding Zhichen didn't understand whether Li Xuewu was talking about car operation needing to cooperate with Capital Auto or independent operation.

"Our Group has a transport team."

Li Xuewu leaned back slightly, leaned on the sofa armrest, and emphasized: "We have more logistics transport conditions and requirements, and we can fully form passenger taxi business."

"Is that so—"

Ding Zhichen frowned at his nonsense and asked back: "Then why didn't I hear Director Li say it."

"Our Director Li is too busy."

Li Xuewu smiled bitterly: "Even if I want to see him, I have to make an appointment in advance."

Ding Zhichen obviously didn't believe his words, but didn't refute, just looked at him pretending to be forced with a smile.

"If I have to give a reason for forming an operating car force, it is job placement for workers."

Li Xuewu looked at him very seriously when he said this, and emphasized: "But as long as we can find a way for these workers to make a living, we are willing to work hard for it."

"You want to form passenger taxi power for the purpose of solving the re-employment problem of workers?"

Ding Zhichen didn't expect Li Xuewu to say this, frowned, and said: "Then it seems that the cooperation between us is not very suitable?"

This was not a threat; you Li Xuewu are just a Secretary-General, not the General Manager of the Red Star Steel Group. Does what you say count?

Li Xuewu doesn't pit a smooth donkey.

If the other party was very generous and sensible and didn't argue with him, how could he fall into his trap and get on his bad trick.

Such a person shouldn't argue with him; just insist on his own point of view and opinion to negotiate. Ding Zhichen insisted on competing for high and low, isn't this bad luck.

"Conventional models can of course cooperate."

Li Xuewu's attitude was very serious, but his tone was very conservative and emphasized: "But it is limited to Red Star Hongxing Lingyang and Red Bull three-wheeled motorcycles; Aries and Hongyun vans are temporarily not in the scope of our cooperative joint operation thinking."

"Why is this?" Ding Zhichen, who originally wanted to talk about the second generation of Red Star Hongxing Lingyang, frowned and asked: "Are you planning to do taxi operation yourself?"

"Director Li has this plan." Li Xuewu blurted out: "Aries is the first three-box sedan with streamlined design produced in China, and has independent wind heating and wind cooling systems. Our designers also spent a lot of effort on the interior space design."

He emphasized particularly carefully: "This car is also exported. You can check the export sales data at the customs and you will know. It is very popular abroad, and our Director Li believes that this car will definitely become a star product that redefines sedans in China."

Ding Zhichen was blown away by him. Since such a good car isn't intended to cooperate with us, why introduce it in such detail? Is it to lure me?

He frowned and sized up Li Xuewu, asking: "What about the Hongyun van? Is it also a star product?"

"Data won't lie."

Li Xuewu's tone was indifferent: "I won't say, you check it yourself, I believe you can find it."

"The Hongyun van can be said to be the first multi-functional tool vehicle model produced independently in China."

He introduced confidently: "Whether it's 7-seater, 9-seater, or 12-seater models, they all have their unique design needs, and short-distance passenger transport is absolutely a hegemon-level existence."

"You can go to any government unit in Steel City and take a look, see if they use Hongyun vans."

Still need to go to government units in Steel City? Capital Auto itself bought several Hongyun vans for field work.

The performance of pulling people and equipment was very bright; he had known this point long ago.

"You don't plan to operate the second generation of Hongxing Lingyang?"

Seeming to have a sense of crisis, Ding Zhichen looked at him suspiciously and asked this sentence.

If the Red Star Steel Group didn't plan to operate the second generation of Hongxing Lingyang itself, then they wouldn't operate it either.

Compared with the second generation of Hongxing Lingyang, after Li Xuewu's introduction, he suddenly felt that the second generation of Hongxing Lingyang wasn't fragrant, but the Aries, which didn't perform prominently in the domestic car sales channel, was more in line with their definition of taxis.

Why was Aries' performance in the domestic car sales channel not prominent?

The reason was very simple; even the magic capital sedans were only used by cadres above the municipal level, and sedans were still luxury goods.

Moreover, the selling price of Aries was no different from an astronomical figure for ordinary people, and they couldn't afford it at all.

But for enterprise units, using Aries was very beautiful, but it lacked brand confidence and social cognition.

For example, the leaders in the city all use magic capital brand sedans; if you suddenly use Aries, how can people identify your identity?

Regardless of whether the car Li Xuewu said sold well abroad, he felt that Aries was very suitable for use as a taxi, cheap and beautiful, in line with the aesthetics of the era.

"The second generation of Hongxing Lingyang—"

Li Xuewu's answer made Ding Zhichen want to pull his hair. "The second generation of Hongxing Lingyang is of course very good, um, very good."

Good fart! You tell me clearly where it is good; you say it like this, I'm not going to be confused, I'm going to misunderstand!

"I fully support Steel Auto to launch negotiation work with Capital Auto regarding the operation of the second generation of Red Star Hongxing Lingyang."

Li Xuewu looked at him with a smile and said: "If you have any questions, you can completely contact me."

Is this driving people away?

Ding Zhichen was so angry, and a bit anxious. He didn't come to Steel City for tourism, and even less to be angry; he came to ask for cars.

"Where do you plan to do operation business?"

"This—" Li Xuewu glanced at him and said pretending to be difficult: "Temporarily considering the capital and Steel City, as well as the nearby Tianjin."

"We have many transferred workers in the capital who need to be relocated, and most of them hope to live in the capital."

He explained: "And in Steel City and Tianjin, we also have some worker evacuation needs, so—"

"If we can accept a part of the workers?" Ding Zhichen first raised this condition. He looked at Li Xuewu and inquired: "Can we operate all the models of Steel Auto?"

"How is that possible—"

Li Xuewu looked at him in surprise and said: "Steel Auto currently has more than a dozen models; it's impossible to put them all into operation."

"Aries?" Ding Zhichen pretended to retreat and seek the second best and inquired: "If we want Aries to operate, does this condition work?"

"This—" Li Xuewu cooperated very well with his performance and said pretending to be hesitant: "I still have to touch with the leaders, but the possibility is very small."

"I'm not prevaricating you."

He explained very frankly: "Even if Director Li agrees, the conditions negotiated are too harsh."

He looked at him and suggested: "Why don't you buy some Aries back to try first, or wait until our taxi business is operating before purchasing independently for large-scale operation?"

"Is there no other way?"

Ding Zhichen looked at Li Xuewu and frowned: "Let's put this matter aside first; I also need to communicate with other comrades."

"I also hope you consider it carefully."

Li Xuewu said sincerely: "Actually, the second generation of Hongxing Lingyang is very good, completely satisfying Capital Auto's taxi needs."

"Thank you for your frankness, goodbye."

Ding Zhichen didn't want to listen to his flickering anymore; the alarm bell in his brain rang loudly. He had to go back and sort it out first to see if he had fallen into a pit.

Obviously Li Huai De had agreed, but now Li Xuewu had gone back on his word, and pushed all the problems to Li Huai De.

Was it Li Huai De who played him, or was what Li Huai De said simply not counting, and he was set up by Li Xuewu?

"My application wasn't approved—"

Xu Sinian followed Li Xuewu to the office after the industrial leadership group office meeting ended.

He pinched the document in his hand and emphasized with a frown: "What exactly does the Group mean?"

"How did I tell you at the beginning?"

Li Xuewu picked up the thermos cup and took a sip before looking at him: "If the step is too big, it's easy to tear the egg."

"Do we count as taking a big step?"

Xu Sinian emphasized unconvinced: "It's just expanding four shipyards and increasing production capacity."

"The Group supports us in grasping production work, so why is it still like this?"

He shook the plan to expand the Yingcheng Shipyard in his hand and said dissatisfiedly: "This isn't flickering people."

"Didn't flicker you; the Group supports your production, but didn't promise to invest in you."

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows, took the plan from his hand, pointed to the number at the end of the project book, and emphasized: "To tell you the truth, the Group doesn't have this money."

"When you asked me to sign at the beginning, I told you that you couldn't pass President Jing's level."

He put down the document and spread his hands: "Now it's good, you forced me to sign, and it still didn't pass on the Group's side. What do you have to say?"

"Of course I'm not targeting you."

Xu Sinian said angrily: "It's just that the Yingcheng Shipyard really needs new shipyards."

"Whether the Yingcheng Shipyard needs new shipyards, I know better than you, but the fact is there is no money."

Li Xuewu reached out and tapped his document again: "A penny stumps a hero; if there is no money, you say how President Jing can approve it for you."
