Chapter 1536: Are kings and nobles, generals and ministers, born with a special lineage?

"What does your group need an airport for?"

Zhou Ya smoothed her long hair and looked at Li Li Xuewu, who was lying on the bed, through the vanity mirror. She asked, "Do helicopters need an airport too? Red Steel doesn't have that project, does it?"

"What would helicopters use an airport for—"

Li Li Xuewu lifted his head with an amused expression and looked at her, saying, "Of course, it's for passenger and cargo planes."

"Mainly for cargo planes and business jets."

He turned a page of the book in his hand and explained while reading, "The development of the Red Steel Group has indeed brought a new atmosphere to the domestic industrial and economic sectors."

"Mm, I've felt that."

Zhou Ya took a wooden hairpin from her makeup box and easily coiled her hair up in a few movements.

Don't ask, a young married woman coiling her hair also increases attack speed.

"You definitely wouldn't expect that I could actually see your Red Steel Group's products on the train."

She turned her body around, looking extremely surprised, and introduced, "It's that kind of instant boiled water noodles you brought back. They are sold on the train, and they are actually selling very well!"

"Mm, the Beijing Railway section's train, right?"

Li Li Xuewu replied very casually, "The Sales General Company held a product promotion meeting within the joint ventures. It seems it was at the end of last year, it should be."

He thought for a moment, lifted his head to look at Zhou Ya, and said, "Actually, for long-distance transportation like trains and ships, especially when it's inconvenient to solve the problem of eating, instant food still has a very large market."

"I estimate that it won't be long before this product sweeps the whole country—" Zhou Ya came back to her senses, looked at her increasingly youthful self in the mirror, and opened the newly bought cosmetics to perform meticulous skincare.

The Yazi Cosmeceutical Sales Branch under the Red Star Hundred Herbs Hall Joint Pharmaceutical General Company also launched several cosmetic products in the mainland, mainly targeting women of all age groups.

There are two main marketing channels:

One is the retail terminal relationship network such as the Red Star Hundred Herbs Hall pharmacies belonging to the Chinese and Western Medicine Sales Branch under the Pharmaceutical General Company; the other is through the Dongcheng Supply and Marketing Company, which contacted the National Supply and Marketing General Company to stock goods in department stores in all major cities.

In this era, whether it is the supply and marketing company or the joint-venture department store, there is no such thing as advance payment or consignment.

Unless it is that kind of specialized consignment store, otherwise, they all follow the unified procurement and unified sales form, which is to say, the supply and marketing system completes the procurement before selling.

The fact that cosmeceutical products could break through the supply and marketing procurement barriers and enter major city department stores truly has a component of luck; this era is really lacking in cosmetic resources.

Another reason is the positive feedback provided by the Dongcheng Supply and Marketing Company, coupled with the fame and credibility brought by the strong rise of the Red Steel Group in recent years.

Including alcohol, food and beverages, automobiles, motorcycles, hardware products, electronic products, etc., they have successively entered the national supply and marketing system, and the product packaging all bears the corresponding brand logo, the full name of the company, and the group trademark.

These factors gathered together to form a relatively strong credibility within the supply and marketing system.

One advantage is that the Red Steel Group is in Beijing, and the Supply and Marketing General Company is also in Beijing, which facilitates communication.

The Supply and Marketing General Company conducted research and investigation on the Red Steel Group's products according to product categories and screened out excellent commodities that could be procured and adapted to the whole country.

Compared with factories within the supply and marketing system, the Red Steel Group's experimental market-oriented business model brought unprecedented experience to the Supply and Marketing General Company.

Just the product return and exchange mechanism for quality issues alone made the supply and marketing system completely open the door to cooperation.

Supply and marketing cooperative sales clerks no longer have to coldly refuse customers' applications for quality product returns and exchanges. As long as there is complete packaging and a short usage period, returns and exchanges can be processed, and even product promotion channels have been developed.

The Red Steel Group designs and produces corresponding advertising and promotional materials according to its products and sends them to major cities across the country along with product shipments according to seasons and regions.

And the Red Steel Group Sales General Company's branches in major cities across the country will arrange for specialists to go to product counters to guide the arrangement of promotional materials according to their respective environments.

Not only that, the Red Steel Group Sales General Company also provides training conditions for product knowledge, organized product training classes in major cities, invited supply and marketing company sales clerks to participate in training, and issued training subsidies and bonuses.

This "borrowing a chicken to lay eggs" model, supplemented by material reward means, made the Red Steel Group's products star products of major supply and marketing companies in a short period of time.

The cosmetics Zhou Ya uses were bought from the cosmetics counter of the Wangfujing Department Store.

Yazi Cosmeceuticals reached an agreement with the Beijing Department Store to be the first national counter to enter, following Yazi Cosmeceuticals' marketing standard scripts to carry out product promotion.

This set was brought back from Hong Kong and France by Zhang Zhang Songying and, after being reorganized by Li Li Xuewu, is a system technique that truly conforms to the marketing system of the era's characteristics.

Even though she clearly knew that the set she heard came from the hands of the big bluffer Li Li Xuewu, Zhou Ya still couldn't help but spend money at the counter to buy a whole set.

It hurts to spend the money, but the sales clerk from Yazi Sales Company described the products as if they were flowers falling from the sky; if you are a woman, you cannot withstand this kind of temptation.

Thinking back to what she heard inadvertently when buying cosmetics, there is a rumor that so-and-so also sent a secretary to buy cosmetics.

If even that person uses Yazi brand cosmetics, what reason do they have to doubt this brand?

She didn't remember what else the sales clerk said, she just remembered the Chinese herbal purification technology the other party mentioned that doesn't hurt the skin, especially the on-site experiment the other party did, which received the approval and support of most women.

"I just can't get away. If I had the opportunity to be your group's food distribution agent, I'm afraid I could earn enough in one year to spend for a lifetime."

"That's why we want to establish a Sales General Company—" Li Li Xuewu smiled, lifted his head to look at her, and said, "We won't throw this money away."

"It's just that your thinking is meticulous."

Zhou Ya pouted and hummed, "If it were that Director Li of yours, even if it were gold, it would all be lost."

"That's your misunderstanding of him." Li Li Xuewu defended old Li, saying, "Our Director Li is very careful in living his life. Let alone gold, he wouldn't even bear to throw away iron filings."

"He really is a strange flower—"

Zhou Ya turned around to look at him and said, "He loses every game of mahjong and has no memory, he just likes to lose money?"

"How do you know? You heard it?"

Li Li Xuewu put down the book and looked at her, asking, "Or is there some story that came out?"

"Wu Wu Shuping said it." Zhou Ya tidied herself up, stood up, walked over, and explained, "She said your group's Director Li often calls the general manager of the United Construction to play cards, and he wins so much from that general manager that he doesn't dare to go anymore."

"Lang Zhennan? His courage is very small."

Li Li Xuewu shook his head and smiled, "When old Li and old Yang were singing opposite plays, he was almost scared to death."

"Wu Wu Shuping said he is very cautious in doing things."

Zhou Ya kicked off her slippers, leaned over, and sat beside Li Li Xuewu, saying, "He doesn't dare to have even a little bit of error."

"It's a critical period." Li Li Xuewu used a bookmark to make a division, put the book on the bedside, lay down, and said, "The group may be officially established this month. They are all waiting for the Investiture of the Gods to come out, so how would they dare to have an accident."

"The way you say it—" Zhou Ya patted him lightly and said, "Everything sounds like it's not serious when it comes out of your mouth, even the Investiture of the Gods—"

"If it's not the Investiture of the Gods, what is it?"

Li Li Xuewu lay on the pillow and looked at her, saying, "All the gods are hoping to have a name on the list, fearing that their ranking will be lower than others, how unbalanced their hearts are."

"What about you? You don't have this concern?"

Zhou Ya supported her neck with her left hand and lay on her side beside him, asking, "Or are you already in the Management Committee, and don't fear the danger of falling into the mortal world?"

"The earth turns the same without anyone."

Li Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said, "So I didn't take myself seriously. Doing more practical things is better than anything."

"How you like to calculate—"

Zhou Ya pointed at his forehead with her right index finger and teased, "Now, how can the Red Steel Group leave you? I see that your team is not united either. They suppress you, but no one wants to kick you out."

"Kicking you out is equivalent to Red Steel cutting off one of its own arms."

"It's just that you say it like that—"

Li Li Xuewu shook his head with a light laugh and said, "It's still that sentence, doing practical things is definitely better than pulling idle eggs."

"Are you reminding me?"

Zhou Ya's hands were not honest first; she wanted to pull out the gun, with a teasing smile on her face.

Li Li Xuewu glanced at her with an amused expression and said, "Malicious interpretation, I didn't mean that."

"Then it's me who has this meaning—"

Zhou Ya woke up the evil dragon, leaned over, looked down at his eyes, and smiled, "Then let's mean it a little?"

"Meaning it a little is fine, but I have to remind you." Li Li Xuewu personally polished the two headlights for Zhou Ya and said with a smile, "*** once said you can launch a war willfully, but a war is not something you can stop just because you want to, you have to bear the consequences yourself—"

"Ah—"

"Secretary-General, please, this way is the workshop for Sea Lion passenger cars."

Thursday, January 9th, the group's Secretary-General Li Li Xuewu and his party went to the Steel City Automobile Manufacturing Plant for research.

Deputy Chief Engineer Wang Yongzhe made product introductions and walked in the front position of the team.

Li Li Xuewu glanced at him and asked with a smile, "When did you join the job?"

"Uh—last March."

Wang Yongzhe was a bit surprised that the leader would ask him this question. Looking at the expressions of other colleagues holding back laughter, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have done something wrong.

"Comrade Wang Yongzhe previously worked at General Motors in the United States. After returning to China last year, he was invited by Deputy Director Gu to come to our factory." Steel City Automobile Plant person-in-charge Lü Yuan-shen introduced with a smile, "Last year, he accepted half a year of training and worked at the Research Institute for a period of time."

He explained softly, "Knowing you, maybe he doesn't understand you very well yet."

"No need to understand me, I'm just asking casually." Li Li Xuewu looked at Wang Yongzhe, nodded, and said with a smile, "Doing scientific research and technical management work at Red Steel doesn't need to be convoluted; being direct is better."

Wang Yongzhe was a bit stunned, just like he didn't understand the colleagues' laughter just now, he didn't quite understand the Secretary-General's words this time either.

"The Secretary-General is the creator of our group's automobile industry. Without the Secretary-General, there would be no Steel City Automobile."

Lü Yuan-shen introduced to him, "The design drafts for Steel City Auto's first mass-produced car, Red Star Antelope and Comet, came from the Secretary-General's hands."

He smiled and pointed at Wang Yongzhe to remind him, "Today you've met an expert. If you don't speak well, you'll really be a laughingstock, hahaha—"

"Hehehe—" A burst of light laughter also sounded from the team accompanying the research behind him, looking at Wang Yongzhe.

Wang Yongzhe looked at Li Li Xuewu, who was walking in the very front, with a strange expression. No one knew what he was thinking, but in the subsequent explanation, he began to use real skills.

Li Li Xuewu went to Steel City Auto mainly to see the Sea Lion car and the newly independent sedan production line.

"Sea Lion still shares a production line with car models like Hongyun. For the market's needs, the production capacity is still okay."

After Wang Yongzhe introduced the process design characteristics of the production line, Lü Yuan-shen briefly introduced the supply and demand relationship.

Li Li Xuewu used his hand to test the gravity parts bracket; this thing was designed with great care.

In the past, parts in the car assembly workshop were always thrown and placed randomly. When assembling, you couldn't find this, and you couldn't see that.

When building Steel City Auto, Li Li Xuewu proposed that a new-era modern manufacturing enterprise must be designed and built.

What is free in this world?

The answer is not unique, but sunlight and gravity are absolutely free. With Li Li Huai De and Li Li Xuewu's stingy personalities, if they don't use this free stuff, wouldn't they be struck by lightning.

So the workshop lighting system used a large number of sunlight collection and diffusion equipment, and the shelves for loading automobile parts also used gravity brackets, which automatically fell after use.

These careful designs all came from his suggestions, and every time he came, he would ask if there were any problems.

Wang Yongzhe didn't know this. Seeing him test the bracket, he began to introduce the design plan to him, which again caused the crowd behind him to burst into light laughter.

He was stunned and looked at Chief Engineer Bai Guangming, wanting to know where he went wrong again.

"It's okay, just looking around."

Li Li Xuewu nodded and pointed at the passenger car production line that was running, asking a few questions.

This didn't stump Wang Yongzhe. As a senior technical personnel from General Motors in the United States, what he brought to Steel City Auto was definitely more than just a little change.

Li Li Xuewu listened to his report very seriously and raised questions and praise for some designs and changes.

Before leaving the workshop, he also talked with the workshop director, asking about the situation of the workers and the production situation.

Overall, Sea Lion cars have no inventory, which proves that the foreign market recognizes them.

Although the Sea Lion passenger car has just been launched and Hong Kong dealers have just started stocking it, this car model with stronger power, larger passenger capacity, and larger cargo capacity is still very recognized by the market.

The most important thing is that this passenger and cargo dual-use vehicle is cheap.

Since it was decided to realize the dumping of automobiles and electronic industries in Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia, then don't give up; you must create a world.

Rather not make money within ten years, you must firmly establish this world and let Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia fall in love with Red Star manufacturing.

"After the sedan production line became independent, the production capacity was completely released." Lü Yuan-shen, who accompanied Li Li Xuewu for research, introduced, "Now there are only Aries and Gemini on this production line, with a daily total output exceeding 300 units."

"Annual production capacity of 100,000 units?"

Li Li Xuewu glanced at him, pointed out with a smile, and walked forward.

Lü Yuan-shen smiled, followed his steps, and explained, "If there are no special circumstances, the goal of 100,000 units per year should be stable."

He hesitated for a moment and emphasized, "But the premise is that the quality and supply of parts must be guaranteed."

"You don't need to say this, the group is already doing it." Li Li Xuewu looked at the sedan production line and said, "After the year, perhaps in April or May, the supply chain will take the lead to talk about parts industry cooperation with several key automobile enterprises in the country, and there will be the results you expect."

He turned his head, pointed at Lü Yuan-shen, continued to walk forward, and emphasized, "At that time, an annual output of 100,000 units must not be your ultimate goal."

"Don't worry, we won't watch the parts stay in the warehouse and accumulate."

Lü Yuan-shen knows how to speak beautifully. This time, he accompanied Li Li Xuewu all the way, looking and introducing the work and efforts he made in the past year.

Regardless of whether the Secretary-General will speak for him at the meeting, he cannot let this person speak ill of him.

So even if someone wants to help him, he cannot raise his tail. The consensus of everyone in the group is that you can offend anyone but not the Secretary-General, otherwise, you will be doomed.

The motorcade composed of five cars, with a Volga M24 in the lead, headed straight for the electronics factory after turning out of Steel City Auto.

Li Li Xuewu did not stay at the automobile factory for lunch. After comforting the engineers and technical team, he declined Lü Yuan-shen's invitation to stay for a meal and drove to the electronics factory.

Today's time is a bit tight, or rather, since he came back, his time has never been abundant.

"Secretary-General, welcome to the electronics factory."

Bi Bi Yuding smiled and stood in front of the office building door waiting for him. He also heard the notification call from Steel City Auto.

"How is it, did Lü Yuan-shen tell you we haven't eaten yet?" Li Li Xuewu smiled and shook hands with him after getting off the car, saying, "Is the food ready?"

"It's ready, just waiting for you."

Bi Bi Yuding raised his hand to make a gesture of invitation, and also shook hands with Zhang Jing, the office director who came with Li Li Xuewu, and exchanged a few simple pleasantries.

He also introduced the preparation of the meal to Zhang Jing and walked toward the restaurant with Li Li Xuewu.

"The new building is really impressive—"

Li Li Xuewu looked at the newly built factory area and the newly built office building, turned his head, and said to Bi Bi Yuding, "Returning to Beijing to see the old factory area of the rolling mill always gives a feeling of things being different."

"You are too sentimental—"

Bi Bi Yuding joked, "I just think the new factory area is more impressive, and the building facilities are also more useful."

"That's true, who doesn't like new things."

Li Li Xuewu smiled and pointed at him, saying, "But I have to remind you, the old wife is still the best."

"Hahaha—"

Amidst the joking, the group walked into the restaurant of Steel City Electronics, where a large round table had long been prepared.

Unlike Lü Yuan-shen, Bi Bi Yuding has a closer relationship with Li Li Xuewu and knows his working style.

This large round table for hospitality was placed in a corner of the cadre canteen, and anyone eating here could see it.

And the food prepared on the table was exactly the same as the window, just divided into plates, looking more exquisite, but the portion was sufficient.

"Come on, Factory Director Bi is treating today."

Li Li Xuewu smiled and greeted the office staff who accompanied the research, saying, "After eating, we have to continue in the afternoon. Everyone has worked hard today."

"The Secretary-General has worked harder—"

Wang Min also followed today's good atmosphere and joked along with Li Li Xuewu's joke.

Bi Bi Yuding glanced at him and laughed out loud with everyone, the atmosphere was really good.

Before eating, Li Li Xuewu did not forget to remind everyone, "Although it is said that people who eat others' food have short mouths, today the situation is different. We are not here to pick faults."

"That's right, we are here to find trouble."

Wang Min continued to joke, "We try our best not to let Factory Director Bi scold people."

"Hehehe—" Bi Bi Yuding chuckled, looked at him, and said to Li Li Xuewu, "Young people are really energetic. Seeing them is seeing the future of the group."

"You can still see the future of the group from him?" Li Li Xuewu didn't care about the joke at the dinner table, glanced at the grinning Wang Min, and said, "This kid studies engineering. After the year, I plan to send him to Yingcheng to exercise and let him see what grassroots frontline is."

"Hahaha—"

Hearing the Secretary-General's words, everyone looked at Wang Min, who was shocked by the sudden news, and that expression made everyone burst into laughter.

Zhou Linghua touched him with his elbow and teased softly, "Congratulations, Comrade Wang Min."

"I..." Wang Min was really crying and laughing. Being sent down from the Liaodong Industrial Zone Leadership Group Office to the Yingcheng Port Area Engineering Project, is this a promotion or a demotion?

"I think with the current purchasing power of urban workers, enjoying television entertainment is not a problem."

Bi Bi Yuding finished lunch, put down his chopsticks with Li Li Xuewu, and said, "The condition that limits the desire to buy televisions is more that there are not enough television programs."

"What do you mean?" Li Li Xuewu asked him with a smile, "We still have to form a television station."

"No, no, no, I'm just explaining this phenomenon." Bi Bi Yuding explained, "It's also the survey we did, and it was fed back to the sales data."

"Mm, I can understand what you mean."

Li Li Xuewu wiped the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief and said, "Actually, you guessed right. In the future, we will form a television station and develop television programs. This is certain."

"Even if it is to stimulate television consumption, to expand the propaganda position, and to enrich the lives of employees."

He looked at the people at the table and said, "This goal may take a few more years to achieve."

"Currently, what we can do is to perfect and complete the electronic industry production foundation, and effectively grasp the quality system management and technical accumulation and upgrading work."

He emphasized this sentence to the cadres of the electronics factory at the dinner table, and also mentioned it when visiting and researching the television production line and washing machine production line.

It is necessary to ensure production capacity and improve technology.

The current purpose of the electronics factory's break-even operation is to train technical workers and accumulate industrial technology.

If both of these goals cannot be achieved, then the money is wasted, and the time is wasted in vain.

"Products coming off the production line now basically don't stay in the warehouse for more than a week."

Bi Bi Yuding introduced personally, "After the Sales General Company docked with the supply and marketing system, the trucks at the door basically have to queue up for goods."

"In the past, I had to worry about the difficulty of parts supply. Since the supply chain system was perfected, there is no such concern, and our production has been guaranteed."

"It is our business personnel who have made great contributions." Li Li Xuewu nodded in agreement and said, "Being able to cast a net in the national electronic industry enterprises to fish for parts industry shows how outstanding this achievement is."

"It is indeed so." Bi Bi Yuding sighed, "Even we can use parts products from third-tier enterprises here. Comrades have really worked hard."

"It will get better and better in the future." Li Li Xuewu said to him with a smile, "As there are more and more electronic industry enterprises in the country, you will be troubled by the difficulty of accumulating parts materials."

"Then I look forward to this day coming sooner." Bi Bi Yuding smiled and said, "When it really comes, our production capacity will also come up. Perhaps as you said, workers won't be needed, and everything will be automated."

"There will be such a day." Li Li Xuewu looked at him deeply and said, "Be prepared."

After looking at the television and washing machine production lines, Li Li Xuewu came to the internship center to visit the students of the Electronic Engineering College of the Vocational and Technical College who were interning here.

"Is life good here?"

He had a warm smile on his face, shook hands with the teachers and students here, and asked with concern, "Steel City is much colder than Beijing. Is the place where you live warm?"

"It's quite warm, thank you Secretary-General for your concern."

The team leader teacher answered with a smile, "Our life here is very good, we will definitely work hard."

"Take good care of the students, and take good care of yourselves." Li Li Xuewu patted the back of his hand with concern and urged, "Cultivate more excellent and usable talents for the group and the industrial system."

"We definitely will!" The teacher nodded seriously and expressed his stance to him.

Li Li Xuewu patted his arm and continued to shake hands and comfort the trainees.

"Secretary-General, hello, I am an intern of the 68th grade of the Electronic Engineering College, my name is Xue Boning."

A young man who looked quite sturdy introduced himself to Li Li Xuewu with a full voice.

Li Li Xuewu smiled slightly and asked while shaking hands with him, "How is the study situation here?"

"We are interning in telephone assembly, and the study group I am in is researching the topic of telephone processing technology and technical improvement."

"Good, keep working hard." Li Li Xuewu let go of his hand, patted his arm, and said, "Looking forward to your good news, at that time, please ask Factory Director Bi to issue you technical research and development bonuses."

"Thank you Secretary-General, we will definitely work hard!"

In the subsequent comfort, some trainees reported their lives, and some trainees reported their study situation and group research projects. Li Li Xuewu listened very seriously and even asked two more questions.

His attitude encouraged the trainees and also aroused their interest in internship work.

In the hearts of the trainees, the Secretary-General is somewhat special, because before they officially started working, they heard that this young Secretary-General is a pioneer figure of young cadres in the Red Star Steel Group, a role model for learning, and a banner for hard work and catching up.

To put it bluntly, who the hell doesn't want to become the next Li Li Xuewu!

Especially when the Secretary-General's research ended and he left by car, watching the Secretary-General get into that high-end sedan, the accompanying personnel even included reporters, with long guns and short cannons, but anyone with youthful sharpness would shout in their hearts: "Are kings and nobles, generals and ministers, born with a special lineage?"

"Secretary-General, do you really intend to arrange for me to go to the Yingcheng Port Area Engineering Project to exercise?"

In the waiting room of Steel City Railway Station, Wang Min really couldn't hold back, came to Li Li Xuewu's side, and asked the question he had been struggling with all afternoon with trepidation.

Li Li Xuewu lifted his head and looked at him with an amused expression, asking, "Why? You are not willing?"

"No, it's that..."

Wang Min didn't know what kind of mood he was in either, scratched his head, and said, "I haven't worked on the frontline."

"That's why I'm sending you down to exercise."

Li Li Xuewu said as a matter of course, "It's such a waste of youth for a civil engineering major not to exercise on the frontline."

"Ah?" Wang Min really hadn't heard of this theory, and his expression was very surprised.

Li Li Xuewu looked him up and down, pointed at him, and said, "You are still too white. Look at the real engineering professional management personnel, none of them are such white-faced scholars."

"I'm still white?" Wang Min was really crying and laughing now. Usually, people in the office said he was dark.

If he is considered white now, then how dark must real civil engineering professionals be?

They can't be darker than coal miners!

At four o'clock in the afternoon, Li Li Xuewu led the research team to take the train to Yingcheng. Because there were many people, the distance was not far, and it was daytime, so he didn't ask for a soft sleeper carriage.

Perhaps it was because he learned from the station that there was such a person as him, and the train conductor came to say hello after getting on the train.

The railway in this era is very proud, but most train conductors are very good at being human, especially at doing favors.

They can come into contact with leaders from all walks of life, and most of them are begging them, so favors are easy to do.

Looking at Li Li Xuewu's organizational relationship, work, and age, it is clear that he is not simple.

Li Li Xuewu didn't ask for any service, and didn't state the purpose of this trip, just said there was work.

The train arranged for people to send hot water and urged the train attendants to burn more coal to make the temperature in the car higher.

Li Li Xuewu actually doesn't want to trouble others, and even less wants to handle this kind of relationship, mainly because it's too much of a loss.

Enjoying this kind of treatment, he originally had this qualification, but after being messed with like this, it seems like he owes a favor.

It was just when getting off the car that he also let Zhang Enyuan leave two boxes of cigarettes for the train conductor and attendants to express his gratitude.

Cigarettes are not worth money, handling relationships is what makes the heart tired.

However, no matter how tired the heart is, this relationship must be handled. Not for his own sake, but for the sake of the comrades.

They have to run this line frequently, from Fengcheng to Yingcheng, and it will be more and more frequent in the future.

Who can guarantee that their unit's employees won't need railway relationships? They can't always look for relationships above every time.

Li Li Xuewu's key work last year was internal stability, and this year's work focus is external expansion.

It is necessary to coordinate external development opportunities, broaden the path of enterprise development, and get to know more enterprise units in Liaodong.

Among them, the railway system is a very important existence. Even though Red Steel has carried out extensive cooperation with Beijing Railway, the railway is divided into sections. If Liaodong industry wants to be successful locally, it must handle local relationships well.

After the construction of the Yingcheng Port Area is completed, the line from the three northeastern provinces to Yingcheng must realize smooth freight transport.

If the port area is really to be operated, the freight transport volume on these lines will definitely soar.

The group is also communicating with the Railway Headquarters to set up a railway network from the port to the inland, which is currently in the research stage.

Li Li Xuewu can't wait too long. He doesn't know when the Railway Headquarters will have results, so he must be fully prepared now and revitalize the relationship network in the Liaodong region first.

From small things, you can see how many big things there are.

Before eight o'clock in the evening, after the group got off the train, they saw Yingcheng Shipbuilding Factory Factory Director Xu Sinuian and United Construction Engineering General Company Deputy General Manager and Yingcheng Port Engineering Project General Commander Zhang Beinan waiting for them on the platform.

"Secretary-General, hello, you've worked hard on the road."

Xu Sinuian walked up with a smile and held Li Li Xuewu's hand, saying, "Welcome to Yingcheng Shipbuilding."

"Welcome to the Yingcheng Port Area, Secretary-General."

Zhang Beinan also followed his words and shook hands with Li Li Xuewu to say hello.

He is only the person responsible for the construction of the Yingcheng Port Area, not the future manager of the Yingcheng Port Area, so there is no need to compete with Xu Sinuian for a moment.

The Yingcheng Shipbuilding that Xu Sinuian is responsible for is within the scope of Liaodong industry and is under Li Li Xuewu's direct management, so such an enthusiastic stance is appropriate.

Of course, it's not that he doesn't need to be polite if he is not under Li Li Xuewu's management, but he doesn't need to be so active.

Li Li Xuewu is the group's Secretary-General. He came to Yingcheng Port Area for inspection. As the person in charge of the port area construction project, Zhang Beinan must come and be more active.

No need to compete for length, but must talk about human feelings and worldly wisdom.

If you really don't talk about human feelings, then only accidents are left.

"You've worked hard, no need to be so polite."

Li Li Xuewu smiled and shook hands with the comrades who came to greet him. In order not to affect other passengers getting off the train, he quickly ended the pleasantries and got in the car to leave.

Xu Sinuian has mixed well in Yingcheng and has some face, being able to drive the car onto the platform.

This is not the same as the kind of paying to get on later. Without real relationships and reasons, they really won't open this big door for you.

Xu Sinuian accompanied Li Li Xuewu in a car to go back. This time, the hospitality was still the responsibility of Yingcheng Shipbuilding.

After a year of construction, the Yingcheng Port Area generally looks like a large construction site. Almost no buildings are complete because the engineering volume is too large and too much.

A multi-trade port area covering the entire Northeast Asia region, think about how large the project is.

Even if there is enough development space left now and not so many infrastructure facilities need to be built, the engineering volume is not small.

Red Steel Group took the lead, gathered several capitals, and smashed tens of millions here; it's really not a joke.

The trucks transporting concrete here every day are lined up, and there is no day of rest.

And for Yingcheng, if a modern port can really be developed and built, then how should this city be defined for Yingcheng's future?

It must be a port-type city.

Are there any port-type cities in the world that cannot develop? Very, very few. The opportunity is right in front of your eyes.

So since the Yingcheng Port Area was established, it can be said that it has had green lights all the way in Liaodong and the Yingcheng region. Any policy and plan are unimpeded, and no one dares to block it.

It was late, but when the motorcade approached the Yingcheng Port Area, they could still feel the brilliance and magnificence of the large construction site.

Just looking at the bright lights at night, the forest of cranes, the vibration sound of construction coming from afar, what can be more exciting than human beings transforming nature.

This is still looking at night. When you look at it tomorrow, it will definitely be another mood.

"Secretary-General, it's night, it's not too much for me to prepare some programs, right?"

Xu Sinuian joked in the car, "I know you, and you know me. Let's have a bottle of white wine each, it definitely won't affect tomorrow's work, okay?"

"You ask me? I don't care."

Li Li Xuewu looked at him and raised his eyebrows, saying, "Anyway, if something happens, you will bear the responsibility. Why are you asking me?"

"Look, I knew you would say that."

Xu Sinuian smiled bitterly, "This banquet without wine, society has no friends. Are we still friends?"

"What? The research hasn't started yet, and you are ready to start corrupting us?"

Li Li Xuewu smiled and patted the passenger seat, and instructed Zhang Enyuan who turned his head, "Remember, write down Factory Director Xu's words and reflect them in the research report, and report to the group truthfully."

"Hehehe—" Zhang Enyuan could hear the number even if he was stupid. How could he not hear that this was a joke.

Xu Sinuian also clapped his hands and said, "My heart is cold, cold, it hurts me."

"It's useless for you to say anything now."

Li Li Xuewu pointed to the window factory and told him, "I haven't been here for half a year. If I'm not satisfied tomorrow, don't blame me for scolding my mother on the spot."

"Secretary-General, are you doubting me?"

Xu Sinuian looked at him with a fake serious expression and said, "You can doubt my drinking quality, but you cannot doubt my character, and even less can you doubt my work ability."

"Let's talk with facts."

Li Li Xuewu smiled, watched the motorcade enter the factory gate, and said, "Don't be in a hurry to drink this meal, and I'm not afraid of you drinking. Let's see the situation after tomorrow's research ends. I am the most clear about rewards and punishments."

"Got it, I know now."

Xu Sinuian said with a light laugh, "Working under you is harder than being a eunuch for the emperor."

"This is so unreasonable."

When the car stopped steadily in front of the reception house door, Li Li Xuewu patted his knee and asked, "I didn't force you to be castrated, you are working wholeheartedly, right?"

"You really dare to think—"

Xu Sinuian smiled and got off the car with him, joking, "If it were really like this, we wouldn't have the energy to work."

"Others are different, you have to look at the situation."

Li Li Xuewu looked at him meaningfully and said, "If I really purify you, maybe I can cultivate an all-excellent cadre."

"You are belittling me—"

Xu Sinuian knew that he had a small handle known by him. This time, he chatted and laughed and invited him into the reception house.

Red Steel Group's major industries all have their own reception houses, such as Yingcheng Shipbuilding and Fengcheng Machinery Manufacturing Plant.

On the contrary, the Steel City Industrial Zone, which has integrated resources and rebuilt the factory area, only has one reception house, which is at the Metallurgical Plant.

Li Li Xuewu has already submitted a work proposal to the group's Management Committee, which is to integrate and reorganize all reception departments of the whole group and form a complete service company.

This service company is required to operate independently, no longer be managed by various units, and try to realize external operation.

Li Li Xuewu doesn't want the group to take detours, so he realizes what he can think of as soon as possible.

How does the saying go?

Earning more is not as good as saving more. The group's development needs money everywhere, so saving a little is a little.

Just like the Yingcheng Shipbuilding reception house, the annual appropriation for repair and maintenance of operation is an important expenditure, but the profit is pitifully small, not even enough for workers' wages.

Conversely, the International Hotel and the Red Star Reception Hotel under construction operate externally directly. In the future, the group will no longer have financial expenditures, but will collect benefits.

Including catering and other service projects supported by the reception house, operating them will definitely be able to support a company.

Making money, the service industry is not shameful. ===== CHAPTER 1537 =====
