Chapter 823: Do more meaningful things!

In the rehearsal hall of the Rolling Mill's art propaganda team, music and dance steps were intertwined.

Bright beams of light penetrated the windows of the club, shining on the exquisite faces that were young and full of vitality.

Zhou Miaomiao, regardless of the fact that her red short-sleeved shirt was soaked with sweat, was still dancing gracefully in the center of the stage.

Every one of her movements was full of power and beauty, attracting the attention of everyone present.

The rehearsal for the Mid-Autumn Festival evening party program was progressing very smoothly, and Zhou Miaomiao, as the main dancer, performed particularly well.

Such an opportunity was rare; previously, it was Wang Yajuan who performed in this position.

Excellent conditions such as talent, family heritage, and hard work allowed Wang Yajuan to firmly grasp this position as soon as she entered the art troupe.

But now, the management of the team and the pressure of business made Wang Yajuan herself feel exhausted and powerless.

When the lead dancer becomes someone else coordinating with your rhythm, it means you are no longer suitable for this position.

Wang Yajuan had a pursuit for art; she liked dance, loved dance, but having experienced hardships, she knew that this path was too narrow, so narrow that it made her unable to breathe.

In front of her, there were two paths to choose from: one was to continue the dance art she loved, and the other was to choose to retreat behind the scenes and truly become a manager.

The opportunity was right in front of her; she was already in a cadre position; you can't have both fish and bear's paw.

Compared to love, she needed to consider the future, life, and survival more.

Rather than letting people in the dance team discuss her, it was better to retreat while she was ahead.

Wang Yajuan didn't want to hear that she was occupying the lead dancer position by some means that couldn't be seen in the light.

So, after the military training ended, at the first rehearsal meeting, she took the initiative to propose the decision to withdraw from the dance team and give up the lead dancer position.

At that time, it caused a stir within the team; everyone's focus was on whether to persist in love or be willing to dedicate.

No one could say clearly how they would choose in Wang Yajuan's situation, but they all performed a rehearsal of life in their inner depths.

Zhou Miaomiao, who was arranged by the dance teacher to take over the lead dancer position, became a lucky one in the eyes of her teammates.

The lead dancer is radiant, unique, and a dazzling star; they couldn't avoid the vulgarity of envy and jealousy.

In the circle of the dance team, no one would not miss this position, this role.

Only when technology and business are vastly different will people be convinced.

So Zhou Miaomiao suddenly took over this position, and the pressure was raised to the highest point.

Facing the criticism and suspicion of others, she didn't choose to fight back, and even less to complain and retreat; carrying a stain on her body, she could only choose to pay silently.

The club had accommodation conditions, so many people chose to stay here.

And during this period, the lights of the club's dance room were often lit by her until late at night.

Giving always has a return, even if it's just a little bit.

Wang Yajuan sat in a corner of the rehearsal hall, observing Zhou Miaomiao's performance intently.

There was scrutiny in her eyes, as well as memories, and more was thinking about life and career.

The relationship between the two wasn't very good; after the incident at the skating rink, she even hated Zhou Miaomiao for a period of time.

Zhou Miaomiao also hated her, a kind of rejection like "one mountain cannot hold two tigers."

The lead dancer position they once fought for now became a watershed for their respective life choices.

One actively gave up, and the one who got it wasn't that happy.

Zhou Miaomiao instead had to pay more effort, to reach a higher skill level than Wang Yajuan, the kind of hardship that made others have nothing to say.

At this moment, Wang Yajuan understood the meaning of a manager, and understood Zhou Miaomiao's efforts even more.

The various things of yesterday, the history of today, the panic of tomorrow, some knots in her heart opened quietly, and she suddenly felt much more relaxed.

What she couldn't let go of was exactly the burden that would become her pursuit; it's impossible for a person to love one thing for a lifetime, just like that person wouldn't be by her side forever.

The various things of the past, smoke and clouds, Wang Yajuan's serious expression on her face slowly melted, and looking at Zhou Miaomiao in the middle of the training hall, her eyes also softened a lot.

"Good~"

As the rehearsal music stopped, Teacher Chen clapped her hands, signaling that this rehearsal was very good and very smooth.

Teacher Chen was from a central-level dance troupe and had rich experience in program rehearsal; if it weren't for the sudden coldness of the situation outside, the Rolling Mill wouldn't have been able to recruit such a great talent.

Of course, having experienced the art reform and the activities of the little cubs, she had a deeper understanding of art reform and organizational management.

That is, art is art, culture is culture, and management is management.

Don't compare your artistic achievements to the height of culture, and even less test the manager's tolerance.

She suffered a big loss on this point; she was valued, flattered, and asked for advice before, as if she were very important.

But when the little cubs kicked open the door of her house, she felt a thick wall shattering in her brain.

The manager who flattered with a smiling face was ultimately a manager; the power in their hands could decide her destination, her life, and even her life and death.

Learning to adapt requires a process; if this process is very short, then she must be very bitter.

"Group Leader Wang, how do you see the program effect?"

"Just call me Yajuan."

Wang Yajuan was still not used to this address from this teacher.

Seeing the other party walk over to ask for her opinion, she hurriedly stood up and replied.

Looking at the former colleagues standing in the middle of the training hall, she only felt like it was a dream.

Yes, she couldn't go back; she had changed, and everyone had changed.

"It's still your good guidance; we couldn't practice to this level before."

Wang Yajuan held Teacher Chen's hand and said with a smile: "I'm glad I'm not in the dance team now; otherwise, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to reach your requirements."

"Don't say that; it's everyone's joint effort."

Teacher Chen had heard too much humility and politeness before, knowing that managers love to say these heartless words.

So even though she knew Wang Yajuan was a member of the dance team before, she didn't dare to have the slightest contempt.

Becoming a cadre, the identity and position changed, and the attitude towards work and towards them would also change.

So, the more polite Wang Yajuan was, the more frightened she was.

"As long as you are satisfied with the program effect, I'm not afraid of hardship."

Wang Yajuan smiled embarrassedly; she had learned about Teacher Chen's experience and knew that she had some psychological stress reactions now, so she didn't know how to get along well.

Instructor Zhang had talked to her, letting her face her identity and also gradually adapt to everyone's views and attitudes towards her.

She was also learning how to become a manager, and only today did she have some insights.

Following Teacher Chen to the middle of the training ground, Wang Yajuan's gaze looked at Zhou Miaomiao.

Zhou Miaomiao also looked at Wang Yajuan; the two hadn't looked at each other like this for a long time, as if separated by a mountain.

Wang Yajuan smiled slightly and took the initiative to say: "Miaomiao, your performance is very great; I believe this song and dance drama will be a great success."

Zhou Miaomiao looked at Wang Yajuan steadily, chewing and deliberating, and after a long while, she tried to smile and said: "Thank you for the affirmation of Group Leader Wang; I will work harder."

Wang Yajuan nodded as she looked at her, and then looked at the others, saying encouraging words.

She came from a dance troupe and had a deep understanding of skills; even if she was saying encouraging words, it sounded like a spring breeze.

"The factory attaches great importance to art propaganda work; besides the fixed large-scale festival evening parties, the newly established radio station in the factory will also cooperate with us to make programs."

Of course, dance wouldn't be on the radio station's program; this was even more ridiculous than magic on the radio.

What Wang Yajuan said was other forms of language art; they were a dance troupe, but they didn't limit their other arts.

"There are many opportunities to show yourself, and there will be opportunities for outside performances in the future, so please continue to work hard."

Wang Yajuan looked at her former colleagues with a smile; she had the confidence to expand the influence of the Rolling Mill's art propaganda team, letting herself go higher and further.

Zhou Miaomiao stood in the team, listening to Wang Yajuan's speech, and a ray of light flashed in her eyes.

She knew that there would be many opportunities for progress in the Rolling Mill, because the Rolling Mill didn't have a professional art work team.

Unlike the railway, every unit had its own art workers, and the competition pressure was too great.

Here, art could also become a ladder for progress, just like Wang Yajuan; even if art wasn't enough to support her progress, then use more things to pry this opportunity.

Compared to the disdain in Han Lu's eyes, Zhou Miaomiao believed Wang Yajuan's words; she had already seen such a good opportunity.

If more people could appreciate her dance, if her art could be promoted through the radio station, then in the Rolling Mill, she would have the opportunity to move upward.

"I fully agree with Deputy Group Leader Wang's speech; our song and dance team has always hoped to have the opportunity to go out and let more people see our performance," Zhou Miaomiao said confidently.

Wang Yajuan looked at her and nodded; her plan needed time to be realized, but she had confidence.

As a former competitor, she knew Zhou Miaomiao, an excellent dancer, very well; the future of the art propaganda team must be very bright.

It's the kind of bright you want, and she can give it to you!

"Then that's it; I will communicate with the radio station, factory newspaper, and propaganda division as soon as possible."

Wang Yajuan looked at everyone and encouraged them full of confidence: "And please everyone work hard, striving for a wonderful performance by our song and dance team at the art evening party at the end of the month."

Zhou Miaomiao looked at Wang Yajuan's departing back and was slightly lost; she had thought about it, this opportunity would be an important turning point for her development in the song and dance team.

She believed that as long as she performed brilliantly enough, she would be able to gain support and let herself ascend to the stage that Wang Yajuan was performing on.

"Hey! What's wrong with Miaomiao?"

Zhou Xiaoling poked Han Lu and pointed to Zhou Miaomiao, who was sitting on the sidelines in a daze, and asked: "Did she take the wrong medicine?"

"Who knows~"

Han Lu also looked at Zhou Miaomiao and shook her head helplessly, saying: "It's been like this since the day she became the lead dancer."

As she spoke, she hammered her straight and slender legs and complained weakly: "Practicing day and night, as if possessed by a demon."

"Why?"

Zhou Xiaoling was also a member of their sister group, and she had a share in the last skating incident.

"I'm asking why she's like that with Wang Yajuan?"

As she said this, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch, as if Zhou Miaomiao had betrayed the revolution and defected to the enemy.

The look of full disdain and flattery made Han Lu laugh, and she pulled her clothes and whispered: "Do you think it could be...?"

"Go away~ are you crazy!"

Zhou Xiaoling hammered her speechlessly, then pouted and said: "The flowery world confuses the eyes; is being a cadre really that good? Can everything be given up?"

"What do you think?"

Han Lu curled her lip and said: "Why don't you try?"

"Also find someone willing to arrange work for you, not hesitating to mobilize the entire dance troupe as a lover?"

"Pfft~"

Zhou Xiaoling curled her lip in disdain, looked at the door direction, and said in a low voice: "Just a deputy group leader, eyes raised."

"You don't even look down on the deputy group leader?"

Han Lu was realistic; she could look down on Wang Yajuan, but absolutely wouldn't allow others to look down on the deputy group leader.

"Do you want to think about what you just said?"

Zhou Xiaoling fell silent; of course, she knew how important the deputy group leader position was, and even more knew how much power Wang Yajuan had.

At least she could wear small shoes for her until she died.

Han Lu looked serious and signaled to Zhou Miaomiao's side, saying: "Just watch, she's also crazy; she also wants the deputy group leader position."

"Ah~!"

Zhou Xiaoling heard the meaning in Han Lu's words, widened her eyes, and asked: "She also relied on Deputy Secretary Li?"

"Heh~"

Han Lu sneered, pinched Zhou Xiaoling hard, signaled her to be quiet, and then whispered: "It's not just one Deputy Secretary Li who has the final say in the Rolling Mill."

After finishing, she pursed her lips and said: "The day before yesterday night, I saw her talking to Director Li."

"Which Director Li?"

"Ah! It's..."

Zhou Xiaoling couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, then covered her mouth.

She really couldn't believe it; that person was already over forty years old.

Looking at Han Lu, who was lowering her head, the jealousy and disdain that flashed by, she seemed to see the sister group's feelings deteriorating and falling apart under the influence of power and life.

In a difficult survival environment, a little bit of pursuit and ideal requires constant effort and heartache that ordinary people can't imagine.

The era is like this, and people are like this too.

"You still need to pay more attention to the work of the propaganda team."

Li Huai De pointed at Li Xuewu and said: "Don't throw everything to the propaganda division, especially in terms of personnel and organizational structure; pay more attention."

After taking a sip of tea, Li Huai De urged again: "Look at the performance at the end of the month; if the propaganda effect is okay, then recruit and merge a few more art troupes."

"Leader, this..."

Li Xuewu frowned slightly and said: "In terms of personnel and funding..."

"It doesn't matter."

Li Huai De waved his hand, interrupting his hesitation, and said: "As long as the propaganda effect is prominent, don't be afraid of paying."

As he spoke, he pointed to the document on the small table and said: "Joint enterprise, can work together for welfare, why can't work together for propaganda and art performance?"

"Your idea~"

Li Xuewu shook his head slightly and said with a smile: "I really didn't think of it; I only cared about business cooperation."

Li Huai De smiled proudly, looked at Li Xuewu, and said: "You have to look at problems from a global perspective; put your eyes further."

"Yes."

Li Xuewu humbly accepted the criticism and said with a smile: "Since you said so, I remembered something."

As he spoke, he talked about the idle chat content during the negotiation at the chemical plant a few days ago.

"Although the chemical plant is large in scale, the factory area is very scattered, and it can't reach the requirement of unified supply propaganda."

"At the same time, I also asked; their propaganda form is still very single, staying on the basis of factory newspapers and radio."

"The development of big activities is still in the form of holding big meetings and small meetings, which is very primitive and rigid."

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "When I mentioned that the Rolling Mill was going to create a radio station for propaganda, their deputy factory director was very surprised."

"Hahahaha~"

Li Huai De laughed loudly, put down the teacup in his hand, and said to Li Xuewu: "This is the advantage of concentrating forces to do big things."

"The Rolling Mill has its own advantages, has the courage to dare to do, and even more the courage to be the first to eat crabs."

As he said this, he looked at Li Xuewu appreciatively and said: "Propaganda work is the top priority for the in-depth development of the 'Great Learning' activity in the future; it cannot be ignored."

"Then... regarding the merger of other art troupes, should the propaganda division preside, or...?"

Li Xuewu's focus of hesitation was still on his degree of mastery of propaganda work, that is, Li Huai De's degree of acceptance of his mastery of other work.

Li Huai De narrowed his eyes, considered it, and said: "Then hand it over to the propaganda division to handle; you are responsible for coordination."

"Understood."

Li Xuewu recorded this content in his notebook, looking very professional.

"Leader, if the program effect is good, I suggest the art propaganda team cooperate with the sales division to do some propaganda work for our products."

He put down the fountain pen in his hand, looked at Li Huai De opposite, and said: "Although I haven't participated in an exhibition, I think it counts as a kind of street stall, right?"

"Hehe~"

Li Huai De chuckled, rubbed his face, and said indifferently: "You haven't participated, I haven't thought about it; we are all the same."

"Hehehe~"

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "Then I'll make a temporary assumption; if excellent commodities plus beautiful style, will it be more eye-catching?"

"Hmm, your idea is good."

Li Huai De pondered, nodded, and said: "Propaganda work exists in every corner of production and life."

"I said merging other art troupes is to form an absolute propaganda advantage and grasp this kind of initiative."

"I think it can be done."

Li Huai De pointed to Li Xuewu's notebook and signaled: "Study this again after you go back; it can be done."

"Then I'll listen to you."

Li Xuewu smiled and agreed, taking notes while asking: "Regarding the report and application for our factory to participate in the exhibition, you have no problem on your side, right?"

"No problem."

Li Huai De waved his hand confidently and said: "The industry side opened a green light for our factory; I brought that set of toolboxes over, and the leaders on the industry side were also very curious, saying it has great potential."

He didn't say which leader of the Ministry of Industry he talked to, and Li Xuewu didn't ask; this kind of thing didn't need him to handle, and excessive concern would cause Li Huai De's suspicion.

The attitude Li Huai De showed today was already very obvious; he had opinions about his performance in the Zhang Guoqi incident.

Although he didn't say it clearly, such an attitude made people even more alert.

"The sales division and the joint enterprise management division and other important production departments are already talking."

Li Xuewu reported: "Striving to prepare all samples properly by the end of this month; by then, you can give more opinions, so there will be time for correction."

Li Huai De waved his hand and said: "I trust you with the trade project; you handle it."

As he spoke, he pointed to Li Xuewu's notebook and asked: "I've handled the applications submitted by the trade project; tell me how you considered them."

"Yes."

Li Xuewu put down the fountain pen, looked at Li Huai De, and said: "The applications for land mainly have three aspects: one is the residential area, one is the Liangma River Industrial Zone and the empty land opposite, and one is on the mountain in Miyun."

"The residential area project land application was submitted early, but I also found some problems during construction."

Li Xuewu took a map out of his bag and spread it on the small table.

His finger pointed to the location of the Rolling Mill's residential area, as well as the location of the entire Liangma River Industrial Zone.

"The residential area project we are building just happens to be stuck in the upstream position of the Liangma River Industrial Zone."

Li Xuewu looked at Li Huai De and said: "Only one building has been rebuilt now, and the housing problem solved is only a little bit; there will be many workers who need accommodation conditions in the future."

"According to the design conditions, the residential area can only be built in the upstream position; there is only so much space, and the future must also be considered."

"The land problem of the joint enterprise under construction on the other side is even more prominent."

Li Xuewu signaled the downstream position of the Liangma River and said: "This year, the industrial land area reserved by the Rolling Mill will be exhausted; I don't know where the new workshops for next year will be placed."

"So, rather than asking for land piece by piece, like a dog-skin plaster, it's better to ask for all the empty land in the Liangma River Industrial Zone."

He tapped the map on the table lightly and said: "From industrial development and the increasing need for housing and life within the factory, it can be seen that in the future, land will become more and more valuable."

"Hehe~"

Li Huai De chuckled with slight disbelief, looked at Li Xuewu, and said: "Can't be, land is everywhere; outside the second ring road, it's all empty land; even planting crops feels like there's too much space."

"The eyes of today cannot look at the Beijing of tomorrow."

Li Xuewu said with a smile: "The city wall is almost dismantled; you say, is it because the people in the city can't fit?"

Li Huai De raised his eyebrows slightly, pondered for a while, thinking in his heart that what Li Xuewu said made sense.

Residents in the city have been overflowing; the reason is self-evident; in a peaceful and prosperous age, there must be a process of rapid population growth.

"Do we want so much land just to build a factory?"

Li Huai De's finger found this piece of land in the Liangma River basin around the Rolling Mill and said: "This area is too big; building two Rolling Mills would be enough."

"Mainly for the new workshops, warehouses, raw material reserve areas, etc. of the joint enterprise."

Li Xuewu made marks on the map with a pencil and said: "You also have to consider the several research institutes that are being established, as well as future scientific research areas."

Li Huai De frowned slightly looking at the map, and asked: "About how much will be used?"

"At the very least, two thousand mu."

Li Xuewu reminded: "Don't forget, the winery that needs to cooperate with Wufengxing hasn't been placed yet, plus the facilities supporting the joint enterprise; we have to take this piece of land to meet the needs."

"Vision should be put further~"

Li Huai De's gaze was fixed on the map, and he said: "The courtyard wall of the Rolling Mill is not a restriction on development; your idea is very forward-looking."

Li Xuewu didn't care about his praise; it was enough that Li Huai De could understand his words.

"Food factory, research institute, winery, etc. production workshops need to be laid out scientifically and reasonably; adjusting after they are all built would be time-consuming and laborious."

"Also."

Li Xuewu tapped the location of the residential area project and said softly: "Have you ever thought about making the residential area project bigger?"

"Engage in housing?"

Li Huai De looked at Li Xuewu and asked suspiciously: "Isn't it already being engaged in; how big do you want?"

"Big enough to accommodate all the employees of the Rolling Mill."

Li Xuewu smiled and pointed to that piece of land and said: "And it can also accommodate the employees of other joint factories."

"Hehe, fantasy."

Li Huai De chuckled and said: "Just according to the kind of resettlement building in our factory, one building also costs 100,000 yuan in construction costs; where are you going to find this money?"

"And, this is a money-losing project."

Li Huai De waved his hand, refusing Li Xuewu's action of refilling his water, took the thermos himself, refilled hot water into Li Xuewu's teacup first, and then refilled his own.

"I know you have vision and drive in your work, but you also have to be down-to-earth."

"Leader, I don't have the lofty ideal of Du Fu to shelter all the cold scholars in the world."

Li Xuewu said with a smile, thanked the other party for the tea-pouring action just now, and then said jokingly: "I'm thinking about how to make money for the Rolling Mill; I'm a bit vulgar."

"Oh?"

Hearing Li Xuewu say this, Li Huai De became interested, smiled, and signaled: "Tell me."

Li Xuewu said calmly: "You might not know how much the sales of the service department in our factory have increased since the trade project started."

"To put it another way, the total monthly consumption of employees living in the Rolling Mill's single dormitory can reach more than 30,000 yuan."

"Do you know who earned this money?"

Li Xuewu didn't wait for Li Huai De to answer, and said directly: "It used to be all the supply and marketing cooperatives; now the factory service department has won about 10% of it."

"That is to say."

Li Xuewu drew a circle at the location of the Rolling Mill on the map and said: "A factory area this big, just a consumption environment like a single dormitory, can realize a market economy of tens of thousands of yuan."

"What if it's this big?"

Li Xuewu's finger drew a circle again, just the residential area location he marked.

Li Huai De's eyes narrowed slightly, thinking about the goal Li Xuewu just said, how many people will live here in the future.

"How big will the consumer market be for a residential area of tens of thousands of people?"

Li Xuewu smiled and explained: "Our factory spends a lot of money building dormitories and residential buildings by ourselves, but what if we rent them to other factories after they are built?"

"You want to collect rent?"

Li Huai De said very unexpectedly: "Housing rent is..."

He wanted to say that housing rent needs to be managed and collected by the housing management department, but he understood halfway through.

This isn't a private house; it's the Rolling Mill's own house; where does it need the housing management department to collect fees.

Li Xuewu knew he understood, nodded, and said: "Yes, rent the house to other factories, not to individuals, only collect rent from factories."

"This is exactly in line with the joint enterprise's future development goal, which is to unify the planning of living and production conditions."

"Enriching workers can provide rich labor resources for the Rolling Mill and surrounding factories, and can also provide a big market for the Rolling Mill's trade project."

Li Xuewu looked at Li Huai De and said seriously: "The industrial production goals and development direction of the Rolling Mill for the next three years have been set; it's time to consider the living conditions of employees and other additional problems."

Li Huai De didn't look at the map on the table anymore, but leaned back on the bunk and said: "According to what you said, we are building a city."

"Indeed."

Li Xuewu said frankly: "Employees hope to get the factory's care and help in work and life, and we also have the obligation to provide these treatments."

"In the past, the factory didn't have the conditions and couldn't solve many practical problems; just one housing problem trapped us."

Li Xuewu said bitterly: "You understand the practical difficulties of the employees; the housing and work problems in the future will be even more serious."

"So, you are planning for a rainy day."

Li Huai De pinched his eyebrows and said: "I never thought that sitting in this position would be so difficult and so tired."

"..." 【82

Li Xuewu was somewhat speechless; what did he mean by saying that?

Is he tired already?

Is it difficult already?

Did he delay his enjoyment of happiness?

What did I promote you for?

Could it be just so you could go and enjoy that kind of happiness with the propaganda team?

Singing and dancing?

Of course, it's to give you more work arrangements and let you do more meaningful things!

For the organization, for the people, and for the hard work and dedication to the steel mill—shedding blood and sacrificing one's life!

Look at Li Xuewu's journey so far; how many people have sacrificed their lives for his cause?

Like Wang Jindong, Hu Zhengquan, Fu Bin...

Ah~ you tell me, isn't that so?!

Truly shedding blood and sacrificing one's life?!

"The burden is heavy and the road is long~"

Li Xuewu smiled and encouraged Li Huai De, saying, "This isn't something that can be built overnight; it's the future development plan for the steel mill."

Li Huai De looked at the thick document Li Xuewu handed over; he wanted to ask if he could just be a useless person, as he just wanted to watch the singing and dancing.

In the future plan for the steel mill provided by Li Xuewu, heavy industry will slowly shift to the Steel City District, which has superior production conditions.

Light industry will slowly replace heavy industry production, thereby forming a favorable situation where light and heavy industries complement each other.

Trade projects will carry and connect all production and living areas, imparting economic vitality and realizing the steel mill's goal of a flourishing future.

In the planned steel mill residential living area, there will be single dormitory buildings, resettlement residential buildings, improvement-type residential buildings, and cadre buildings.

The residential area will be incorporated into the steel mill's overall planning and management, with unified living services and daily guarantees.

Within the living area, there will be large movie theaters, vegetable markets, clubs, liquefied gas stations, kindergartens and schools, guesthouses, radio stations, libraries, staff bathhouses, and so on.

Apply for land in the Miyun mountainous area to build breeding farms, and cooperate with Hongxing Village and the Wei San Tuan reclamation area to engage in planting and breeding, achieving self-sufficiency.

Li Huai De flipped through the document in his hand, pondering to himself that, in fact, Li Xuewu's plan wasn't overreaching at all.

Isn't this exactly the goal that all factories are working on and gradually realizing?

At this time, which factory doesn't have these service facilities? As long as it is a production enterprise of a certain scale, it has its own set of service standards.

The plan Li Xuewu made is simply combined with the residential area, and it applies the cooperative relationship of joint enterprises and tertiary industries.

It looks very complicated, but in reality, it's just that large-scale enterprises don't need to do these things themselves, and small enterprises without scale don't need to struggle to envy them.

Now there is a plan to move out the workers who can no longer be accommodated in the city and build a unified living area.

Here, there are perfect service facilities, sufficient daily necessities, and a complete management system.

All construction projects and land are prepared by the steel mill, and all service items are provided by the steel mill; when the time comes, each factory just needs to pay.

This is essentially taking the steel mill's problems and flipping them over; things that cost money have become jobs that earn money.

Li Huai De scratched his head, looked at Li Xuewu sitting opposite him, and asked, "How did you come up with this?"

"It was also because I was forced into a corner~"

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "If our factory had money, why would we need to drag them along to do it? The fewer the people, the more benefits enjoyed, right?"

"Hmm, the difficulties are temporary."

Li Huai De smiled and said, "With this plan combined with the industrial production plan, the steel mill can be considered to be walking on two legs; it's no longer limping."

Li Xuewu took a sip of tea and smiled, "I'm afraid it will take three to five years to achieve this goal."

"You!"

Li Huai De pointed at Li Xuewu and said with a smile, "Seizing the day is good, but you can't be too anxious."

While speaking, he looked at the plan document in his hand again.

Although what is listed above are all the service and tertiary industry projects that various factories already have, Li Xuewu still has several prominent ideas in the plan.

The first is medical service; the first thing mentioned is that the steel mill's existing factory-level hospital cannot meet the needs of future development.

It needs to be relocated and can no longer be confined within the steel mill; the ideal location Li Xuewu gave is on Dongzhimen Outer Street, adjacent to the living area and the main road.

The purpose is to serve the medical security of all residents in the living area, as well as to provide services and operations to the outside world.

Doctors are the same as workshop workers; without the accumulation of a large number of cases, one cannot exercise superb skills.

Therefore, if you want to continuously provide perfect medical conditions and ensure current medical capabilities, you have to go out.

The steel mill hospital's most impressive technology is actually surgery, because in the past, the factory hospital had to receive cases of mechanical injury every day.

However, with the implementation of standardized safety production and the condition control of the dual plans, incidents of personal injury in the steel mill are becoming fewer and fewer.

Those doctors who used axes and saws rarely use these tools recently, so Li Xuewu has to be responsible for this matter.

Externally, establish a comprehensive hospital.

The keyword Li Huai De saw is this: build a new hospital area, perfect medical equipment, and recruit more experienced medical personnel.

Actually, in this era, medical personnel in Beijing are relatively not lacking; what is lacking is money to build large buildings.

Even the most impressive Peking Union Medical College Hospital is still huddled in its old hospital area; the goal Li Xuewu proposed is really a bit too big.

But in his plan, this project can also make money, especially after external operations; the development prospects analyzed are very good.

Li Huai De doesn't understand medical operations, but Li Xuewu's family has practiced medicine for generations; he doesn't believe in other things, but he absolutely trusts Li Xuewu on this hospital project.

The second plan is education, fully mobilizing the steel mill's existing educational resources to re-plan a complete system from primary school to middle school, and then to vocational education.

What Li Huai De thought of was that the problem of all schools suspending classes now is also written by Li Xuewu.

Now is now, and education will never be abolished or stopped.

So it is just right to take advantage of the current lack of educational pressure to complete the reform of the steel mill's education system.

Re-build primary schools, junior high schools, high schools, and vocational training schools.

Li Xuewu's education plan is also set in combination with the future residential area; a huge population can bring absolute production labor.

In the future, whether it is production or development, professional skilled personnel will be needed to take up their posts.

The master-apprentice relationship in the workshop will increasingly restrict production needs, so put the cultivation and training of workers directly into vocational schools.

This point absolutely meets the requirements of current policies; the notice issued from above in May was to set up small factories and small schools, combining production and education.

The plan Li Xuewu gave is like this: targeted education, where employees' children go from primary school all the way to middle school; later, if there is a university, they go to university, and if there is no university, they go to vocational school.

The cultivated personnel can be supplied to the steel mill and other joint enterprises, realizing the replenishment and progression of workers.

When seeing this, Li Huai De nodded and said, "Discuss this when we go back; it can be started immediately."

He is a relatively complex person; in Li Xuewu's view, you cannot define whether he is a good person or a bad person.

If you say he is a good person, he is greedy for money and lustful, and in the series of reforms in the steel mill, he has been brave and fierce, reaching his current position; can one dare to say there are no problems with him?

But if you say he is a bad person, he supported Li Xuewu in doing many good things, guaranteed the completion of residential buildings with all his might, promoted the development of trade projects, and solved the employment difficulties of the vast number of employees' children.

Especially looking at the plan in front of him, the first thing finalized was the education project.

Doesn't he know that there are minefields in education now?

Doesn't he know that education is the slowest to produce results?

He knows all of this; in political life, the last thing that should be touched now is education.

But he still clicked on this plan, wanting to get it started first; he cannot wait until the dust settles to do it.

There is pressure, but taking two years to engage in construction, when the wind passes, it will be just right to carry out teaching activities.

Flipping through the plan in his hand again, the last one turned out to be setting up a savings office.

Li Huai De raised his head to look at Li Xuewu, and then immediately understood the content of the plan in detail.

Cooperate with other factories to engage in cooperative operations, used for fund management, wage management, construction fund preparation, construction project fund management, and so on.

Li Huai De put down the document in his hand, looked at Li Xuewu, and asked, "Are you talking about engaging in financial savings?"
