Chapter 1293 A desperate move
I said Dongfanghong, so it means red.
I said the sun is rising
We in China have a...
On May 5, the Dongfanghong Square in Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone was fully completed and put into operation.
The art and propaganda team performed the song "The East is Red" under the statue with a large Western band and chorus.
The statue's hand points to the east, where the sun rises and which is also the hope for China's prosperity.
Some leaders of the Red Star Factory attended the opening ceremony of the square and watched the performance with the employees and their families who came to visit the park.
The East is Red Square is only a part of the Riverside Garden. Of course, the office building, riverside community and riverside dock are also part of the Riverside Garden. This is the Garden Industrial Zone.
With green trees and colorful flowers, the northern garden landscape design is also mixed with some French romantic style.
The several office buildings and functional buildings under construction have changed from the rigid tofu-block style in the original design drawings, and have French warmth and style in the details.
Of course, I wear Western clothes but my heart is Chinese.
With the addition of the Santaya Group design team, the architectural and garden styles of the Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone will inevitably be affected.
But the core design thinking has not changed, it is still based on being impartial and practical, and it reveals a red heart everywhere.
But this garden is too big, and the construction project is too large. The square is paved with city wall bricks, which looks heavy and historical.
Some of the garden landscapes were directly transplanted from historical buildings that had already been approved for demolition, which can be considered a form of historical protection.
The design team spent a lot of effort to combine history and modernity, and meet the spiritual needs of the times.
Others may not know, but Lao Li prefers this tune.
"Is the water of this fountain drawn from Liangma River?"
Gu Weijie looked at the big fountain in the square and asked, "Will it have any smell?"
"You really hit the nail on the head."
Li Xuewu smiled and looked at Lang Zhennan, the general manager of the construction company who was following behind him, "Boss Lang, explain this to the leader."
"Okay, Secretary-General, leaders," Lang Zhennan first responded to Li Xuewu's words, then quickly walked out from the back, nodded and greeted the leaders, and then began to introduce them.
"Fountain water has a little bit of flavor, but it's not from the river," he explained. "It's inevitably affected by the pipes in the water circulation system."
“Water used for greening, irrigation, dust removal, cleaning, and landscaping is used after being specially treated in the sewage treatment plant.”
He raised his hand and pointed to the direction of Liangma River and introduced: "The river water is discharged from the collection port and undergoes the first purification, which mainly removes impurities such as garbage, sand and gravel, organisms, and microorganisms."
"The purified river water will flow into the Tuanjiehu Reservoir, where part of it will be used for the greening and non-drinking domestic water mentioned above, and the other part will be used for light industry, laboratories and power cooling water."
"The high-temperature water after the cooling operation will be used as a heat energy resource to supply the workers' new village, production area and office area, and then discharged into the Liangma River separately with the secondary treated domestic sewage."
Lang Zhennan did not have the planning drawings in his hands, but as he had been in charge of the project for two years, he was already familiar with the drawings by heart.
“What’s very clever is that we’ve incorporated a winter protection plan for the thermal wastewater into a separate landscape.”
He pointed to several large landscapes in the park and the overall green environment, and introduced: "The underground pipe network in Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone ensures that some landscapes will not freeze even in winter, and even maintain the long-term growth and reproduction of vegetation."
“You built several flower propagation areas, right?”
Jing Yunong was wearing a smart executive suit with a lavender silk scarf around his collar, looking very delicate.
"I raised my opinions when we were planning and designing. After the money was approved, some people praised it and some people criticized it."
She looked at Li Huaide and said, "Employees and their families who can see a hundred flowers blooming in early spring should be praised, while those who cannot see a hundred flowers blooming should be criticized for wasting people's time and money."
"Haha, let future generations judge."
Li Huaide chuckled and said, "If you are really afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind, then you don't need to do this job."
"In fact, setting up a flower breeding area does not cost money or labor, but saves us money."
Lang Zhennan heard the leaders' discussion and took the initiative to explain: "Even if there were no flower and green plant breeding areas scattered around the factory, the green plants in the park would still need to be replanted and repaired every year by purchasing seedlings and lawns."
"We can have an area that can reproduce naturally with a little nurturing, which not only allows for winter viewing, but also saves on the cost of purchasing materials for later maintenance of the landscape. The main thing is that it really doesn't cost any extra money."
He pointed to the green plant and flower breeding area closest to the crowd and said: "After the heating is completed, the heat energy resources can only flow back to the cooling tower or the Tuanjie Lake cooling pool, which is wasted."
"Building the foundation with bricks and tiles, constructing the steel structure frame, and laying the tempered glass wall to make the greenhouse, the whole set costs less than 4,000 to 5,000 yuan, but the resource savings in the later stage will definitely be more than that."
"You might as well say you grow flowers and sell them."
Li Huaide glanced at him, put his hands behind his back and said, "Okay, the money has been spent, why bother calculating these things?"
"Who doesn't love the sound of birds and the fragrance of flowers? In the future, this will be the main recreational area for residents of the Red Star Factory Workers' New Village. If it's really bare, even I won't come to see it."
He nodded and said, "Five thousand yuan each, and there are only five or six of them in total, so it's not a waste of money and effort."
"Yes, mainly because we can achieve cost control," Lang Zhennan understood what the leader meant and said with a smile, "Bricks, tiles and cement are supplied from Hongxing Village and Chadian Farm, the steel structure is our own product, and the tempered glass is a product of the joint venture."
"Well, your five thousand yuan includes all the favors from our factory, right? Hehehe——"
Li Huaide was in a good mood today. He smiled and patted Lang Zhennan's arm, then went to the nearest water system.
Lang Zhennan was naturally happy and delighted to receive praise from his leader.
You said you didn't hear any compliments?
Stop it. How can Director Li still say in front of so many people that he did a good job and told him to keep working hard?
Of course not. If Li Huaide, the general manager of a construction company, really said that, he would be in trouble.
A simple joke and a pat on the arm were enough to express Director Li's recognition and trust in his work.
When you reach Lang Zhennan’s level, you will no longer hear praise from your leaders. If you really hear it, you will be in trouble.
Praise is often given when there is a job transfer, and usually only when the job is transferred to a less favorable position.
So after he received the praise from Director Li, the first person he looked at was the Secretary-General who gave him the opportunity.
Li Xuewu looked at him with a smile and nodded, expressing encouragement and approval for his performance just now.
He didn't need Lang Zhennan to be grateful. There wasn't so much gratitude in the workplace. Any more would just be enmity.
-
"This month, the special vehicle manufacturing plant delivered one Hongtu bus to the General Office of the CPC Central Committee and two to the Liaodong Provincial Office. The degree of customization is very high."
Li Xuewu was walking behind Li Huaide, and several deputy directors were with him. They were just strolling in the riverside garden.
The leaders of the Red Star Factory were not going on a collective spring outing. They had nothing to do in the office, so they went for a walk with the employees and their families.
Everyone has a lot of things to do, but today is the opening day of the Riverside Garden in Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone.
The leaders walk around and have a look for the employees and their families to see, which represents sharing the joy with the people.
Of course, leaders all like to visit this place, so their attention to this place has increased.
In the words of later generations, it was called drainage. In the Red Star Factory, these leaders together could be said to be top stars.
Walking around, chatting, these people are very busy. Even when they get together, they talk about work.
Li Xuewu took the initiative to bring up this topic, mainly because it was related to the recent cooperation between Red Star Factory and Beijing Second Automobile and Beijing Automobile.
“The development of the coach factory is quite fast.”
Li Huaide looked back at Cheng Kaiyuan and said, "Comrade Kaiyuan, you can keep an eye on the production efficiency."
"Okay, Director Li," Cheng Kaiyuan nodded and said, "I'll ask the Production Management Office for some specific data."
"Of course, we need production and safety," Li Huaide raised his hand to signal Li Xuewu, and said with a smile: "We need to grasp reform, promote production, and ensure safety. I can't let you cause trouble for the Secretary-General on his last shift, hehehe——"
"Hehe——" everyone chuckled.
"My last shift has long been handed over to Deputy Director Su," Li Xuewu looked at Su Weide with a smile and said, "Please ask Deputy Director Su to continue to supervise the safety production work."
"With the solid foundation laid by the secretary-general, I don't feel any pressure in this work of safe production."
Su Weide squinted his eyes and chuckled, "Whether it is emergency management or safety production standardization, it can be regarded as a benchmark."
Praising is not really praising. Just like what happened to Lang Zhennan, in the workplace, there is always a purpose behind the words of praise.
The more you praise, the more evil your intentions are.
"I dare not say that I am a benchmark. All the achievements are made by my comrades. It is enough for me to achieve an achievement that I can live with a clear conscience."
Li Xuewu smiled and looked at Su Weide, saying, "Is that right, Deputy Director Su?"
"Hehehe——"
Everyone looked at the two of them, as well as Li Huaide who was walking in front of them, with an attitude of watching the fun. Today's scene was quite interesting.
"Orders from special vehicle manufacturers are growing very fast, with orders scheduled as far back as next year."
Cheng Kaiyuan took the initiative to bring the topic back. After all, they were talking about his area of responsibility, so he still had to have the necessary attitude.
"The ordering units are widely distributed, mostly in Beijing government agencies and directly affiliated agencies of various provinces."
"Well, this can be considered as promoting the brand—"
Li Huaide didn't care about the confrontation between Li Xuewu and Su Weide just now. He looked at the toad in the pond and said, "Keep up the good work. It would be best if the Red Star series brand could be included in the official vehicle procurement list of each system."
“Although it’s a bit difficult, it’s also a goal.”
Li Xuewu glanced at Cheng Kaiyuan and said, "I think Antelope and Comet still have potential. We can give it a try."
"This requires the efforts of the sales department," Cheng Kaiyuan nodded and said, "The external affairs office of the commission can also give it a try."
"Of course I support this plan," he said, looking at Li Huaide and others, "Automobiles are the heavy industry with the highest profit points downstream of the steel industry. They are also an integrated industry with high technical and representative features. It is worth our continued efforts."
"Well, industrial development starts with technology."
Xue Zhifu nodded, agreeing with Cheng Kaiyuan's current idea, "It's not wrong to use technological innovation as the driving force for industrial development."
“However, there is still a certain gap in the production management level in the current technology development and implementation of Red Star Factory.”
"I admit this," Cheng Kaiyuan continued, "The research institute's R&D capabilities are OK, but the grassroots technical management still lacks the necessary guidance and management."
"To put it bluntly, we are short of people."
Zhang Jinsong smiled and said, "Then it would be appropriate to ask Deputy Director Gu about this matter. Red Star Factory is full of talented people. We really have to thank Deputy Director Gu for his hard work and initiative."
"My work is not hard at all," Gu Weijie said with a smile. "The comrades from the Organization Department and the Personnel Department travel all over the country to select excellent talents for our factory. They are the ones who work hard."
"However, Director Li was decisive enough this time. As soon as our recruitment and selection team set out, it caused a relatively enthusiastic response in various colleges and universities."
"It should be because I'm holding it back—" Zhang Jinsong smiled helplessly, "I've learned enough and made enough noise. It's time to leave school and find a good job to start a new stage of life."
"Well, there are considerations in this regard."
Gu Weijie nodded in agreement with his point of view and continued, "There are quite a lot of applicants, and the Organization Department and the Personnel Department are still concentrating on screening."
"Don't be anxious, take your time," Li Huaide waved his hand and said as he walked, "After so many things, I believe that the young people in the school also have their own ideas."
"We can't tell what they want, but the development and production of Red Star Factory needs them."
The direction the group was heading was the parking lot. It was getting late, so it was time to go back.
"Although it is difficult to allocate college students now and resources are tight, we are scrambling for a good opportunity, but we cannot take everyone and take back all kinds of college students. This point must be made clear."
"Now instead of scooping it back, we have to pick it up with our hands."
Li Xuewu noticed that Gu Weijie's emotions were a little fluctuating after Li Huaide's words, so he quickly replied, "College students are the chosen ones of heaven. This time, Red Star Factory is selecting the best of the chosen ones, one in a hundred."
"It's a rare opportunity, a rare opportunity."
Xue Zhifu said with his hands behind his back, "If we talk about the price our factory had to pay to hire one more college student two or three years ago, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that we had to beg for mercy, right?"
"Haha, times have changed."
Cheng Kaiyuan chuckled and said to him, "I am completely confused by the changes. I can't keep up with them."
"You are still early. I am the one who can't keep up."
Xue Zhifu shook his head helplessly and said, "I looked at the blueprints with the Engineering Command Center a few days ago. Our young generation can already communicate with the French team proficiently in a foreign language."
"Looking at the old comrades who are about my age, they are just standing aside like fools and listening to what others say. I really can't help but accept it."
"You still have a strong sense of crisis."
Li Xuewu slowed down a step, looked at him and said, "I'm not afraid of seeing the gap, I'm afraid of ignoring the gap. It's important for people to know themselves."
"You are criticizing me!"
Xue Zhifu nodded at Li Xuewu, and he laughed himself out loud after he finished speaking, "Okay, okay, I have to accept the advice and have self-awareness."
"You see, Deputy Director Xue is overly concerned."
Li Xuewu pointed at him and said, "I just want to advise you that everyone has their own specialties and cannot generalize."
"I accept your criticism," Xue Zhifu nodded with amusement. When getting in the car, he looked at him and asked, "Why, I heard that the female comrade from the Production Management Office was scolded by you?"
"Regarding this matter, I really have to thank Comrade Wang Lu from the Commission Office." Li Xuewu was the last one to get on the bus and sat at the door. When everyone looked at him, he explained, "If she hadn't reminded me, this misunderstanding would have been huge."
After briefly recounting what happened that day, Li Xuewu also sighed: "The human heart is hard to predict."
There is a second half to his sentence: "We have to be on guard against it." He just didn't say it out loud, but everyone understands it.
We have to be on guard, but who are we on guard against?
It is human nature. We should not have the intention to harm others, but we must be on guard against others.
"I don't think so."
After all, he was Cheng Kaiyuan's soldier, so he took the initiative to speak: "Yao Huiying came to explain to me, and I roughly understood the situation at that time. It was indeed Peng Yanping who did something wrong."
"If you have something to say, you can't say it to my face. What's the point of crying?"
"However, I do know Comrade Peng Yanping quite well. She is quite sentimental and easily moved by emotions."
He looked in the direction of Li Huaide and said, "I also told Yao Huiying to criticize where necessary and educate where necessary."
"As for whether there are any complicated situations behind this, I think we should not be too sensitive and easily cause discussion among the people below."
"Oh - is that so?" Li Huaide nodded, not commenting on Cheng Kaiyuan's plea. After thinking for a while, he looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Secretary-General, what do you think?"
"I don't have any objection. Comrade Yao Huiying promised me to reflect seriously and deal with it seriously."
Li Xuewu narrowed his eyes and said calmly, "Actually, I'm not afraid of rumors or personal attacks."
"I am afraid that after Peng Yanping's incident, there will be Zhang Yanping's and Li Yanping's second and third incidents."
Of course, he saw the implicit meaning of Cheng Kaiyuan's words. He, as the secretary-general, was not giving him face and destroying his prestige.
If nothing unexpected happens, Cheng Kaiyuan thought that he was being used as a gun by Li Huaide, and picking on Peng Yanping was just a warning to others.
But Li Xuewu had to say what needed to be said, "The reason why I agree with Comrade Yao Huiying's opinion is that I am more worried that this kind of thing will happen to you. That means I, as the Secretary-General, have failed in my duty."
The carriage fell silent for a moment, and there were no more opinions or discussions on the matter.
As for Cheng Kaiyuan, he had suffered losses in this regard a long time ago.
In the Hongyun No. 1 car, he is the only one who has no right to express feelings or opinions. The things between men and women are nothing in this era, but if you really talk about it, it is also a lack of personal morality.
Think about it, who would dare to employ a cadre with bad character in any position?
Therefore, Li Xuewu was determined to kill Peng Yanping, and he wanted everyone in the organization to watch her carefully.
Even if the deputy director pleads for her, she will definitely be executed.
From now on, if anyone dares to mention this kind of thing in the report to the leader, Peng Yanping will be their role model.
-
When the Hongyun No. 1 car turned back from the Liangma River Road and passed the hospital building that was about to be completed, everyone's attention was attracted and the silent atmosphere in the car was eased.
Li Huaide looked at the hospital building, which completely met his ideal of modern architecture, and nodded slowly, saying, "Okay..."
"It's softer than the original design," Xue Zhifu said. "This is how a hospital should be. When patients are suffering from pain, they should be comforted and understood in all aspects."
"You are half an architect now, right?"
Jing Yunong withdrew his gaze from the window, looked at Xue Zhifu and joked, "You can talk about everything related to architecture."
"Hey, why does this sound so familiar to me?"
Xue Zhifu turned his head and looked at Li Xuewu, nodded at him and said with a smile: "Did you also say that I came here?"
After talking about Li Xuewu, he looked at Jing Yunong again and joked: "I didn't expect that you and the Secretary-General have such a tacit understanding."
"laugh--"
"Hehehe——"
I don't know who couldn't help but sneer, and then the atmosphere in the car became strange, with continuous chuckles.
Even Li Huaide couldn't help but smile when he saw the depressed Li Xuewu and the cold-faced Jing Yunong.
Xue Zhifu, this old fool, was so bold that he even dared to touch the whiskers of two tigers, a male and a female.
Lu Xun once said that there cannot be two tigers in one mountain, unless they are one male and one female.
But this is not always true. For example, the Red Star Factory is a special mountain that cannot accommodate two tigers, a male and a female.
Li Xuewu didn't speak to Jing Yunong the whole morning, and Jing Yunong never looked at Li Xuewu much. Anyone who was not a newcomer basically knew about the conflict between the two.
The conflict between the two was very deep, and Director Li took the initiative to mediate, but it had no effect and they almost got into a fight.
People in the office said that Cheng Kaiyuan had a bad relationship with Director Li, and that Su Weide had a bad relationship with the Secretary-General.
Saying this is not good, saying that is not good, most of them are fabricated rumors, but the fact that Deputy Director Jing and the Secretary-General have a bad relationship is definitely not fabricated. The two have quarreled several times, and on several occasions, Deputy Director Jing, who had a bad temper, broke cups and hit the Secretary-General.
It has to be said that Li Xuewu was able to be the secretary-general, even though he was scolded and beaten, but he never fought back against Deputy Director Jing.
Of course, is there any need to say this?
If the Secretary-General really fights with Deputy Director Jing, then Deputy Director Jing will be sent directly to the crematorium.
The two people who had a bad relationship and deep conflicts actually had a tacit understanding in the mouth of Deputy Director Xue.
The way everyone looked at Xue Zhifu was like this:
Deputy Director Xue, you are so funny!
"The imported medical equipment and devices have arrived in Tianjin," Li Xuewu took the initiative to change the subject, not wanting to act too dramatic, "The hospital will start installing the equipment this month."
"After that, a batch of equipment and supplies needed by the hospital will arrive in Tianjin every month and then be transferred to Beijing for installation."
He glanced out the window and saw the hospital building was already past, so he continued, "Also coming with us is the engine technology."
"Hey, now that you mentioned this I remembered."
Li Huaide looked at the people in the car and said, "Second Automobile has also asked us to divide up the parts production and processing enterprises of Beijing Automobile. How is the progress?"
"It's mainly car technology and production equipment," Cheng Kaiyuan took the initiative to introduce, "including some production technologies for internal combustion engines and generators. The team responsible for the acquisition is still doing an evaluation."
This is the change that took place after Red Star Factory grew into a group company. All economic actions must be evaluated and budgeted in advance.
The days when leaders could decide whether to accept or not just by taking a quick look are gone, and will never come back again.
Whoever dares to sign and receive it will bear the corresponding responsibility if something goes wrong. This was decided by the management committee at a meeting.
The promulgation of the Regulations on Work Management of Institutions made Li Huaide see the advantages and benefits of standardized office work. He immediately passed the relevant influence to the Management Committee and strictly divided the powers and responsibilities.
Whoever is in charge of the business will bear the main responsibility if something goes wrong.
If you make a decision by patting your butt, you must be prepared to be spanked.
This is actually the result of Lao Li's compromise. Even if he did not take the initiative to delegate power and divide responsibilities, he would not be able to hold on to this power.
The division of responsibilities and powers helped to free himself from the responsibility, and he, who did not understand the business to begin with, would not be cheated by his subordinates.
"The intentions of Beijing No. 2 Automobile are not pure either," Cheng Kaiyuan said. "I talked to their deputy director Gu. Their focus is still on technology. They want our technology."
He chuckled and said, "The cooperation in scavenging is a matter of calculation, and now it has come to us."
"There is no need to keep the existing technology," Li Huaide glanced at Li Xuewu when he said this. Seeing that he did not object, he continued, "If Second Automobile has a good cooperation project, we can open up technical cooperation."
"What you mean is..." Cheng Kaiyuan glanced at Li Xuewu, then looked at Li Huaide and asked, "This time, the merger of Beijing Automobile Factory will focus on Second Automobile Works?"
"Give it to them if they want it."
Li Huaide gained confidence from Li Xuewu and said calmly: "Red Star Factory is currently tightening its capital control and reducing the expenditure on new projects. It should focus on technology and product output, supplemented by engineering construction, talent training and other foundations."
To put it bluntly, this means that they are not going to spend any money and are preparing to steal the home.
The Red Star Factory can provide technology, management, and systems, and can even offer architectural solutions during the construction process, and later collaborate with industrial schools to provide talent output and other support.
There is no money and no life.
Even though it didn't cost a penny, Red Star Factory was able to get shares just by relying on its technology, management, systems and other solutions.
That’s right, this time Red Star Factory doesn’t want to take on too much. Starting this year, it will not only sell off shares, but also serve as a non-controlling party in new projects by investing in technology.
These are two management methods. One is to join industries. Even if shares are sold crazily, the management rights will not be lost. This is for risk mitigation. The other is to invest but not operate. No matter how many shares you hold, you will not operate. It is purely a pure resource integration and reuse.
If the first one is risk flood discharge, then the second one is risk embankment building, which can increase the company's profit range, reduce the threat and damage of risks to the company, and enhance the vitality of the company.
A series of technologies such as internal combustion engines, generators, electric motors, gearboxes, etc. can be output in the iterative process.
The cooperation between Hongxing Factory and Beijing Second Automobile Works is also based on this. Beijing Second Automobile Works also wants to follow the old path of Hongxing Factory's groupization, focusing on tertiary enterprises and joint industries to expand the company's profitability.
However, Gu Litong of Second Automobile Works was very smart. He was afraid that Second Automobile Works would not have the same luck as Red Star Factory, so he chose an automobile parts processing factory with the backing of Red Star Factory in the tertiary industry and joint industry.
A cunning and treacherous person should be like this.
-
On May 20th, Chantal arrived in Beijing and the two sides exchanged views on the progress of the cooperation under negotiation.
Li Huaide did not force her or urge her to put pressure on the negotiation team to speed up the negotiation process.
If you are impatient, you won’t be able to eat hot tofu, and if you are impatient, you won’t be able to find a good wife.
Li Huaide was really anxious in his heart, but he couldn't say it. After Chantal came, he met her and suggested that Li Xuewu accompany her to look at the contents of the completed framework agreement.
This is the industrial information that Li Xuewu wanted when he got angry with the Production Management Office a few days ago.
In the first framework agreement with Santaya Group, the two parties cooperated in multiple areas and contents.
For some products that Red Star Factory was unable to produce or provide complete machine services, such as construction machinery, special vehicle equipment, etc., we cooperated with the Trade Management Center to complete the corresponding orders.
In two years, Red Star Factory has completed all production agreements in the framework agreement.
In other words, it took Red Star Factory only one and a half years from signing the contract to setting up the production system.
During this year and a half, some orders have started production and delivery, and some have even been completed.
Starting this year, all goods covered by the first phase of the framework agreement will be exported from the Red Star Factory and the Trade Management Center.
The Santaya Group will gradually receive orders from the Red Star Factory in the next one and a half years.
With tens of millions of orders in three years, the Red Star Factory made a lot of money, and other brother units in the joint industrial system also got in on the action. Unplanned production became a firm vassal of the Red Star Factory.
In fact, the existence of a trade management center with its special credibility guarantee is beneficial to foreign businessmen who lack credibility confidence, and even more beneficial to joint units that lack export channels.
Of course, the commission collected by the Trade Management Center is more beneficial. It not only revitalizes the unplanned production projects of the Red Star Factory, but also creates an integrated manufacturing system with the Red Star Factory as the core.
“I really admire you guys.”
Chantal looked at the buildings rising from the ground outside the car window, shook her head slightly and said with emotion: "These were not there when I left, but now they look like they are about to be completed."
“We have the best workers in the world, including those in manufacturing and construction,” Li Xuewu explained in French, sitting beside her. “We have a better and more secure system.”
"It is true. There is power when people are united."
Chantal nodded and said, "Your factory's transformation into a trust group is a classic that is hard to replicate."
"Textile, food, processing and other mechanical equipment can be applied to our own processing plants, and can also be exported for domestic sales," she said, looking at Li Xuewu, "You have a huge domestic circulation market."
“This is also a need for development.”
Li Xuewu explained: "This just proves that our economy is vibrant, people's needs for material life have room to rise, and we also have a yearning for a better life."
"It's just that we chose to create a better life with our own hands and dedicate our lives to giving all mankind a vivid lesson in politics."
"Haha, that makes me feel very stressed."
Chantal didn't want to talk about this topic and turned her eyes to the window.
The foreign affairs officer sitting in the co-pilot seat looked back at Li Xuewu. He could hear such an obvious test.
Of course, he also admired Li Xuewu's initiative. If he could get some useful information... he wouldn't believe it.
Li Xuewu actually didn't want to take the initiative to find out Chantal's political inclinations, he just wanted to assess her mental state.
Don't say he is insidious, this is his job.
It took Chantal about a month to stabilize the domestic victory, which shows that this woman is not a good person.
Although she was called Chantal here, she was already known as Madame Durand in France.
Don’t ask how Li Xuewu knew this news. A little bird from France told him.
You laugh because you don't understand how much Li Xuewu has given and sacrificed for the Red Star Factory and for his work.
There is a saying that goes, the body is the capital of revolution, but Li Xuewu has given up his original capital.
Li Xuewu made great contributions to accurately obtain Chantal's situation and basic information in France. We applaud him!
Chantal returned to Beijing without Li Huaide's urging or Li Xuewu's hint. She was willing to speed up the cooperation negotiation process.
Time is more valuable than profit. Instead of getting entangled in a little profit on the contract, it is better to get the project off the ground quickly.
During the communication and talks with Li Huaide this time, she clearly expressed her hope to put the projects that have already been negotiated on the list of projects to be started and cooperated on.
Li Huaide actually hopes that the negotiations for the cooperation projects within the framework agreement will be completed as soon as possible and then started in a systematic manner.
However, Chantal has promised to complete the cooperation negotiations as soon as possible, so there is no need to delay.
Why is she in such a hurry?
As the negotiating parties, shouldn't the Santaya Group and herself slow down a bit at this point?
Li Xuewu knew the inside story, and Li Huaide also knew it.
There were a series of personnel changes in the French Embassy. Counselor Alan returned to his country and the former economic commissioner Amandine followed him.
Maggie Roman, the former cultural commissioner, was appointed economic commissioner.
Everyone knows Li Xuewu's fighting ability. Even if you don't know, Maggie, who has used it once, knows it.
After releasing all the stress, she took the initiative to talk to Li Xuewu about the development of the Santaya Group.
This time, Chantal did not jump higher, but jumped from one falling platform to another not-quite-equal platform.
If they are equal, then there is no need to find someone in his sixties. With her status and conditions, she can just find a younger one.
This time, the change in relationships behind the Santaya Group has brought a lot of uncertainty to the company's development.
In the mainland, without the support of Counselor Alan, Chantal just wanted to quickly consolidate the existing cooperation.
She did not seek to make any further progress, at least not until she found better connections in the mainland.
Be conservative and narrow the scope of economic cooperation.
Maggie mentioned that Chantal's current work focus is not on the economy, but on the influence built by the economy.
Without influence, her Santaya Group would be a castle in the air and face the risk of collapse at any time.
It is precisely because of the stability of the mainland's economic system that Chantal chose to go all out and establish a cooperation system in the mainland.
Another reason for the rapid progress of the negotiations, which Maggie did not reveal directly, was about herself.
Maggie said that although she served as the Economic Commissioner, she was not concerned about economic development at all.
The reason is very simple. During this period, both the mainland and France became relatively conservative. Not only economic cooperation, but also cooperation and exchanges in other areas became difficult.
She was certain that she would achieve nothing in the next three years as economic commissioner unless the attitudes of both sides changed.
However, the Santaya Group, which has completed the cooperation negotiations, can serve as a key to open a door that is about to close.
Regarding technical cooperation on helicopters and other projects, there was no response from France. In fact, it was just a test and reaction.
There was no response from the mainland, it was more like an expression of an attitude and reaction.
Therefore, the game between major powers is not just a wrestling match between the two of them that will be over in two hours.

On May 21st, Li Xueli, my second uncle’s cousin, came to Beijing.
"Brother, I'm sorry."
As soon as they met, the little cousin, who looked much more mature, apologized to Li Xuewu with shame.
Li Xuewu grabbed his hand, patted his shoulder in amusement, and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? You are still trying to trick your second brother. Come into the house quickly."
Li Xueli arrived home in the afternoon and did not go to see the old lady because he could not give a suitable reason.
"My eldest sister is crazy, mad, and stupid. Don't bother with her," Li Xueli said with a red face as he came into the living room. "My father has already taught her a lesson. I brought you the watch."
"You should know that I didn't call my second uncle for this." Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said, "Do you know whose project my eldest sister and brother-in-law want to invest in?"
"Yeah, I know. My dad told me."
Li Xueli covered his face with his hands, feeling ashamed to face people. He suppressed his voice and said, "Big sister was not like this before."
"I want to say this, too." Li Xuewu patted his shoulder and looked at his brother and said, "Even if they simply want to borrow money, I won't make things difficult for them."
"Don't do that. You don't even know them..." Li Xueli hesitated to speak, but after looking at his second brother and taking a breath, he said, "She really married the wrong person."
"They are both getting married, but it has prevented the parents of both sides from meeting each other. My dad doesn't even have the face to send you a letter."
Li Xueli said helplessly, "They got married just to make do with it, but neither of them worked properly. My eldest brother-in-law didn't work hard, but he was attracted by my dad's free and easy job in forestry and insisted on transferring here."
"How could my dad destroy him? He didn't like him either. But after being rejected by my dad, my eldest sister came home crying again."
He sighed and said, "My father chased them both away, and my elder sister even resented me, her younger brother."
