Chapter 1479 November
Starting in September of this year, various departments of the group and units that were granted permission to move into the group's twin towers have been moving into the new office building one after another.
Only the group's leadership and the general management department have not yet completed the relocation task, but it is in progress.
During his last trip back to Beijing, Li Xuewu accompanied Li Huaide and others to visit the new office building and also saw Li Huaide's office, which was indeed spacious and beautiful.
The entire building was designed and decorated by a French designer, in collaboration with outstanding designers from many countries around the world and designers from Red Star United Architecture.
The style is both practical and modern. Many of the tempered glass and decoration materials used in the building are imported, making the cost quite high.
Li Xuewu still missed the relocation of the group's leadership when he returned this time. Of course, he wasn't in a hurry. The secretary-general's office was there and wouldn't be lost. Besides, even if it were moved, what use would it be?
He won't be back anytime soon, and even if we were to move, there's nothing left to move.
The secretary-general's office had been occupied by Bu Qingfang. When Chen Shuzhi arrived, she offered to give it up, but Chen Shuzhi refused.
Chen Shuzhi did not change his office until Bu Qingfang took office at United Energy Corporation.
The reason is simple: although that office is more spacious than the one he uses now, the group is about to move to a new building, so why should he bother?
However, the management committee meeting on the 13th was held on the tenth floor of the Gemini building.
Why is it on the tenth floor, instead of the ninth floor which also has a small meeting room?
It's very simple. The ninth floor is the office floor for the group's leaders. As per Director Li's request, the best small meeting room is designated as the Standing Committee meeting room.
Now that the higher authorities are requiring all government agencies to actively discuss and explore the restoration of their organizational leadership structure, Li Huaide is certainly able to understand the requirements and direction from his superiors.
It's a bit early to set up the Standing Committee meeting room now, but it definitely won't be long before it's ready for use.
Furthermore, the group has not yet examined and selected new members for Organization D, so it is inconvenient to use them.
One more thing to add here: if the organizational structure is restored in accordance with the requirements and instructions of the higher authorities, how many management teams will Hongxing Steel Group have?
The answer is three sets, isn't that interesting?
The first set is the D organizational structure mentioned earlier, which is to restore the D group meetings and the structure.
The second set is the existing organizational structure of the management committee, which has been in use for three years.
The third set is the business management structure that emerged after the Red Star Factory officially completed its group-oriented goals.
Generally, the first organizational structure consists of the secretary, deputy secretary, and members of Group D.
The second set is already known; it consists of the director, deputy director, and secretary-general of the management committee.
The third group consists of the general manager, deputy general manager, and general manager's assistant.
The third organizational structure also includes a chief economist, chief accountant, and chief designer at the deputy general manager level.
Li Xuewu had discussed the relevant organizational structure requirements and management needs with Lao Li.
He suggested to Lao Li that a position of Safety Director be created, at the level of a vice president.
Since he took over and initiated the safety management reform of Hongxing Plant, the number of casualties from production accidents at Hongxing Steel Group has been within a controllable range each year.
Despite the major safety accident that occurred at the No. 4 furnace of the metallurgical plant this year, the number of casualties is still within the annual safety production target range, especially compared with other industrial enterprises, it is far ahead.
There's no need to compare, and there's no way to compare. Hongxing Steel Group has extremely high requirements for safe production, exceeding industry standards.
You said that the number of casualties in the No. 4 boiler accident is a joke in the face of high standards, and Li Xuewu admitted that there were shortcomings in the management work.
The investigation has been ongoing for some time now, but no conclusion has been reached. Three groups of experts have already been dispatched to the site.
At the accident investigation meeting, Li Xuewu emphasized that it is necessary to address workplace safety issues, clarify responsibilities for production accidents, and ensure safe construction practices in the future. These three aspects are not contradictory.
Inspired by the safety accident at Boiler No. 4, Li Xuewu proposed creating a new position of Safety Director to take full responsibility for the safety production work of the entire group.
At the group level, a safety director position should be added, and safety directors and safety administrators should be appointed from top to bottom.
We must establish a safety management system to prevent workplace accidents as much as possible.
Li Huaide did not immediately reject his opinion, but said he would report and discuss it with his superiors.
Half a month passed without any news from Lao Li. Li Xuewu knew that his suggestion must have been adopted, otherwise there would have been news long ago.
Old Li is still a man who wants to get things done, but he often can't figure out the right approach or see what's ahead.
His caution allowed him to evade many hidden attacks, but it also caused him to miss many opportunities.
Especially now, as the head of the group and the one who takes the fall, he dares not act rashly.
The purpose of this management committee meeting is to summarize the work experience of the previous quarter and to make arrangements for the work in the next stage.
He may not understand, but he cannot be ignorant.
The purpose of holding a working meeting is to collectively discuss the key tasks at this stage and reach a consensus.
This is what collective decision-making means.
During his return to Beijing, Li Xuewu used a small sedan from Shanghai, also known as a "flat-fronted" car, which had relatively little space but was still quite comfortable to sit in.
Han Jiankun did not come to pick him up, but instead sent a young driver to his house with Zhang Enyuan.
The weather in Beijing in November was already cool, but the morning sun was warm enough, though not as intense as in summer.
The roadside trees in front of my house are already bare, and sanitation workers are already cleaning up the thick layer of fallen leaves on the roadside early in the morning.
This is probably the last batch; it will be difficult to find such a thick layer of fallen leaves again. The few scattered leaves hanging on the tree are not enough to make a difference.
As Er Ya saw him off and asked if he would be back for dinner that night, white breaths occasionally escaped from his mouth.
The temperature didn't drop rapidly, but it just kept getting lower and lower.
"If I don't come home for dinner, I'll call home."
As Li Xuewu left the courtyard, he turned back and nodded slightly to Er Ya, saying, "Remember to make sure the food you bring to your sister Xiao Ning at noon is light, she doesn't have a good appetite."
"I understand, Second Brother, don't worry."
Er Ya readily agreed, then looked back at the window in the courtyard. Li Shu and Li Ning were peering out of the octagonal window of the dining room.
Gu Ning went to work earlier than Li Xuewu. After having breakfast, she packed her things and went to work.
In winter, it's too much trouble to ride a bicycle.
She was also quite talkative, spreading rumors in the hospital that Gu Ning was a pampered young lady who had to ride a bicycle even though her workplace was only a short distance from home.
Gu Ning was already tired of these gossips, but she endured them after being persuaded by Li Xuewu.
Also, with her father and mother no longer living in Beijing, the family's influence was gradually weakening, and her superiors were not as enthusiastic about her as before.
Anyway, for various reasons, including, according to Li Xuewu, societal resistance and hostility towards class, she didn't care anymore.
She would ride her bicycle when the weather was warm, because Li Xuewu had bought it for her.
When it gets cold, I'm afraid of slipping and falling, and I'm also afraid of the cold wind hitting my face, so I walk to work.
However, no matter how you go, you'll arrive earlier than Li Xuewu. Whenever there's surgery, you have to make rounds, so arriving earlier allows you to have ample time to inquire about the patient's condition.
From this perspective, she is more passionate about her work than Li Xuewu, treating it as a career.
Li Xuewu treats his work as an integral part of his life.
He even considers spending time with his children and family as a necessity of life, and his clear separation of work and life is quite unconventional.
What should we talk about at this point?
They emphasize dedication, contribution, and hard work, but never about slacking off or being lazy.
Even with this attitude, Li Xuewu still manages to do his job very well, which shows that sometimes ability is also a factor.
The car turned out of Dongzhimen along the wide road and drove straight towards Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone.
You don't need to look at the big advertising signs in the industrial area, nor do you need to look at the surrounding buildings to judge whether you've arrived. Just feel it with your heart.
The construction standards for highways in that era were not high, and the comfort was greatly reduced, especially when riding in cars with poor shock absorption.
However, once the car entered the Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone, the road conditions changed. The roads here are paved with asphalt concrete.
Li Xuewu was well aware of the standards for highway paving in later generations, and he put forward this requirement at the beginning of the design and construction of the Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone.
All the roads in the Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone that have been renovated, expanded, or refurbished were constructed in accordance with this standard.
The rigorous construction process resulted in a smooth road surface, so cars could drive on it without feeling any bumps.
Compared to the narrow roads when leaving the city, the difference is immediately apparent once you enter Liangmahe Industrial Park.
主干道双向8+2车道，4机动车1非机动车车道的设置至少满足未来50年的交通需要。
The factory roads and auxiliary roads also feature a 4+2 design, so cars and bicycles don't get crowded at all on the industrial area roads.
In particular, since the workers' new village began to be occupied last December, a large number of residential buildings have been completed this year, and workers have moved into their new homes one after another.
After the service market and commercial street opened, most employees and their families no longer needed to go to the city to buy goods, greatly reducing traffic congestion.
Just outside the workers' village is a commercial street, and at the end of it is a supply and service market. People need the support of labor service companies and sales companies to make a living, so why would they need to go to the city? On the contrary, city dwellers go to the industrial zone.
In the past, Beijing was only so big. Whether young or adult, people liked to visit each other's homes and friends during holidays.
Even those who don't like visiting others will go to the mall to browse, even if they have no money in their pockets and don't want to buy anything, they still want to see the world.
Now that there's a much bigger opportunity available, how could they possibly miss it?
Of course, there are fewer young people in Beijing now. If they don't go to school, they go to work; if they don't go to work, they go to the countryside. Who would dare to stroll around the streets?
The opening day of the Keliangmahe Industrial Zone Supply and Marketing Market still attracted attention from all over the city.
People who had relatives who worked at the steel rolling mill had all heard that the Hongxing Factory provided its employees with excellent benefits; they could buy things without ration coupons.
At that time, I had only heard about it, but the supply service department was located inside the factory area, and ordinary people could not really get in.
Now things are much better; the supply service department has moved to the supply and marketing market, so anyone can go and see what's going on.
Of course, it's just for watching the fun; if you want to buy something, you still need money and tickets.
Employees of Hongxing Steel Group do not need to do this. They only need to bring their work ID and household supply and marketing book, register, and then they can use the money to buy things.
This made the onlookers extremely envious, because the variety of goods in the supply and marketing market was just as complete as that in the city markets.
They have all kinds of daily necessities, and you can even find counters for bicycles and watches. You can buy bicycles and watches without industrial ration coupons?
Of course you can buy it. The Tianjin Trade Management Center, under the Sales Corporation of Hongxing Steel Group, has relevant partners and import channels.
There's no need to worry about bicycles; motorcycles produced by steel mills are also in high demand. Every bicycle factory needs such resources.
Motorcycles are more expensive, but in return, more bicycles are acquired, which basically meets the purchasing needs of the group's employees.
You said I have an employee certificate and a sales and marketing book. Is it not appropriate for me to use the money here to buy a bicycle and then resell it to a relative or friend to make a profit?
Of course it's suitable, but you can only do this kind of deal once every ten years.
The supply and marketing register will record your personal information. For scarce and restricted goods, there will be restrictions on the number of years and times you can purchase them. Bicycles are restricted goods, as are watches.
As for non-staple foods or canned goods, candies, and snacks produced by food factories, these are not considered restricted goods, but they are considered in-demand goods.
You can buy multiple times, but not in large quantities. With the production capacity of the food factory, even if someone secretly does reselling, there will be no shortage of inventory.
In fact, the group actually hopes that more of these scarce goods, or goods that are not scarce, can enter the market.
For example, cars, hardware tools, and electronic products.
The Liangmahe Industrial Zone Supply and Marketing Market also sells televisions, radios, and washing machines, and there are no restrictions on the quantity or frequency of purchases; you just need to spend money to buy them.
The sales company has two flagship stores open to the public in the city, so who would come to the supply and marketing market to buy these things?
Are they not going to buy it? No, they can't afford it.
People from Dongcheng come to Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone most frequently because they admire it; it's close by and convenient to travel to and from.
The overall environment and business atmosphere of Liangmahe Eco-industrial Zone are much better than those in the city, and the lighting project is very well done.
In addition, their security and basic service work is also excellent.
You can see a security post not far from here, and you can also see a service post made up of retired workers in Liangmahe Park.
There is no litter or debris on the streets, and no young people fighting. Every weekend, city dwellers choose to come here to play.
You can enjoy the scenery of the riverside gardens, take a boat ride on the river, sample the local delicacies, or stroll through the modern commercial district.
The eco-industrial standards proposed by Hongxing Factory are being established, and in the past two years, more and more organizations have sent personnel to visit and learn from them.
Some say that Hongxing Steel Group has built a satellite city outside Dongcheng, but calling it a satellite city is too small.
The Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone only covers a few thousand acres, which is far from the scale of a satellite city; it can only be said that the standards are relatively high.
Many people envy this place, its employees and lifestyle, and even the trees planted along the roads and the streetlights erected.
Hongxing Steel Group has invested nearly three years' worth of revenue and profits in infrastructure construction, which is why it has achieved its current success.
Once you cross Liangma Bridge, the most eye-catching thing is the giant billboard erected by the bridge, which depicts the grand blueprint of the Liangma River Industrial Zone.
Below, the words "Welcome to Liangmahe Industrial Zone" are written in a square font, clearly visible even at night when illuminated by lights.
This giant billboard was originally built when Mr. Zhou came to conduct research, and now it has become a landmark building for entering the Liangmahe Industrial Zone.
The sales headquarters has already reserved the next phase of the billboard's display space. They will put up the product advertisements once the industrial park's infrastructure is fully completed next year and the original billboard is removed.
Change it once a month, so you won't repeat it for twelve months.
Behind the billboard is a large supply chain warehouse area that can be used by multiple supply chains, including automotive, electronics, and food companies.
Across from it is the United Industrial Hospital, which has become the most powerful and famous hospital in Beijing in the past two years. There are countless famous doctors here, and all medical equipment and facilities are imported from Hong Kong. The medical environment far exceeds the level of any hospital in Beijing.
With these advantages, and the current state of Beijing hospitals after undergoing the baptism of activities such as the Great Learning, the United Industrial Hospital has seen a geometric increase in patients since its inception, and has now become the hospital with the largest number of patients in Beijing.
When patients visit the hospital, profits are generated, and the hospital can hope to achieve self-sufficiency and stable operation as soon as possible.
With so many people and so much machinery, even maintaining the medical environment requires funding; without money, nothing can be done.
After crossing the intersection, there's no need to go any further. To the left is the Workers' New Village residential area, and to the right is the group's office building complex.
After passing through a long green belt at the main gate, a security guard saluted and let us through, and the car drove into the garden-style office area.
That's right, it's a garden-style office area.
Starting from the octagonal hall on the left front of the twin towers, which is adjacent to the Liangma River, and proceeding eastward along the main road, the entire line is within the Riverside Garden area.
Counting from west to east, they are: Octagonal Hall, United Industrial Building, Industrial Exhibition Hall and Library (Club), Twin Towers Office Building, Literature and Art Publishing House Building (Radio Station and United Industrial Newspaper), Red Star Guesthouse (under construction), Riverside Garden Residential Area (under construction), Science and Technology Research Institute, etc.
These buildings are all in a straight line, built inside an unwalled riverside garden, with the Liangma River surrounding them from behind, creating a very charming landscape.
Li Xuewu drove his car directly to the entrance of the Gemini office building; only cars with license plates belonging to the group have this right.
Social vehicles are prohibited from entering the entire Liangmahe Park, except in the office area where there are no temporary parking spaces; cars must be parked underground.
Therefore, after Li Xuewu got off the bus, the driver did not stop the bus at the entrance and wait for him, but instead drove the bus off the platform in sequence towards the underground parking lot.
"Hello, Secretary-General!"
"Secretary-General, you're back!"
"Good morning, leader!"
……
Regarding how people address him, some are closer to him, while others are just being polite, so their greetings differ.
However, Li Xuewu's responses were always the same: a smile and a nod, or a handshake and a few words of greeting as they walked.
It looks a bit like a celebrity meet-and-greet, right? But for ordinary employees, even if they work for a group company, their leaders are like celebrities.
At present, the group headquarters has at least two thousand employees, and when you add the employees of other branches and units working here, the total number is four to five thousand.
Out of four or five thousand people, there are only eleven group leaders, and these leaders are not people you see often.
For example, Secretary-General Li Xuewu, unless there are important tasks or meetings, you might only see him once or twice a month.
Take, for example, Xiong Bencheng, the head of the labor union. Meeting this old gentleman is entirely a matter of fate, a chance provided by Director Li.
If Director Li is unhappy, you won't see him. If Director Li needs you, you're lucky. It's too difficult to see him unless you go to the hospital.
Other group leaders are not permanently stationed in the group office; they are either conducting research, traveling on business, or on vacation. It is difficult to gather all these people together unless there is an important meeting.
The group's leadership team needs to prepare at least a week in advance to organize a plenary meeting; otherwise, there may be instances of absenteeism.
"Good morning, Secretary-General. This way, please."
Many of the staff members from the General Management Department, who were responsible for organizing and servicing this work meeting, stood at the door waiting for the leaders to arrive.
Each time a leader arrived, a staff member who had been assigned a guiding role would step forward to greet them and guide them quickly into the elevator, leading them directly to the meeting venue.
The front desk staff had already turned their attention to this area. When they saw the group leader approaching, they all bowed slightly to greet him, showing great respect.
Looking at the increasingly standardized and professional services, and watching the group's employees, all dressed in matching white and black business suits, line up and walk through the employee passage, Li Xuewu felt a surge of pride.
This is what a modern group enterprise should be like, and it is a model of Hongxing's standardized management.
In this era, management can truly be profitable, and there are very few companies in China that have conducted systematic summaries and research on management.
After establishing the Red Star standardized production management model, this knowledge has been extended to related enterprises by the technical team.
Learning from the production and management practices of Hongxing Steel Group is the standard way to copy someone else's homework.
Once upon a time, Li Huaide never dared to imagine that he could lead such an outstanding team and create a classic enterprise that others admire and learn from.
He was proud, he couldn't help being proud.
"Tell Comrade Yu Nong that today's meeting is a bit rushed, so we need to try to shorten the time for her proposal." Li Huaide said to his secretary Liu Bin as he got out of the elevator, "It would be best if it passed, but if it doesn't, we can discuss it later. There's no need to dwell on it."
"Yes, Mr. Li, the Secretary General has arrived."
Liu Bin, with his sharp eyes, saw Li Xuewu emerge from the elevator next door and quietly gave Li Huaide a hint.
Before Li Huaide could speak, Li Xuewu had already taken the initiative to greet him.
"Good morning, Director Li!"
"Good morning, you're here early too."
Li Huaide smiled and extended his hand to shake his, then let go and gestured towards the conference room upstairs, saying, "There's still some time before the meeting starts, you can rest for a while."
"I'll go take a look first, you go ahead with your work."
Li Xuewu knew he had something to do; otherwise, he would have invited him to join them, perhaps to discuss some topics in a small group before the meeting began.
Although he is a member of the leadership team and the secretary-general of the management committee, it is normal for Lao Li not to include him in some of the meetings.
Li would definitely ask for his opinion on business, industry, and economic issues, but he wouldn't ask him on other issues such as publicity, organization, and party building.
Another point is that Lao Li tries his best not to ask for his opinion on security work.
Since it took a great deal of effort to remove Li Xuewu from the security system, there's no way he'd regain his influence.
After parting ways with Li Huaide, Li Xuewu did not go upstairs to the conference room, but instead strolled to his office.
A metal sign hangs on one side of the entrance, with the words "Secretary-General's Office" printed in white on a dark background, giving it a very modern look.
Even the office doors were different from what I had seen before, because there was an opaque glass window on the side of the door near the doorknob, running from top to bottom.
This style of door became common in later generations, but in this era, both its design thinking and the application of glass were groundbreaking.
Why are office doors designed this way?
You can see this by looking at the office area in the steel rolling mill; all the doors have glass windows above them, which are at most covered with white gauze.
Opening the window is a must; it's the rule.
French designers have now extended and widened the window openings, creating such a stylish design that has been well received by the group's leadership.
Li Xuewu also liked this style. After opening the office door, the first thing that caught his eye was a lot of green plants.
Just like his office when he worked in the security department, no one knows when or who decorated his current office with green plants.
Honestly, he had no idea, and it was even his first time in this office, so it was a real surprise and unexpected.
Zhang Enyuan also liked this office very much. There was no lingering smell after the renovation, and there was a desk for him against the wall.
However, he wasn't sure if he would be lucky enough to work here; it depended on whether the secretary-general would give him the opportunity.
Why do you say that?
He was Li Xuewu's secretary in the Liaodong Industrial Leading Group Office, and also the secretary of the metallurgical plant, but not the group's secretary.
This sounds a bit convoluted, but it can be explained in terms of organizational relationships. His personnel file is with the metallurgical plant, not the group's comprehensive management department. Do you understand?
Li Xuewu works in Liaodong, and he is fully qualified to work anywhere with the Secretary-General, even in the capital.
But the secretary-general will eventually have to return to Beijing and work at the group, at which point he will face two choices.
Either the secretary-general will arrange for their personnel records to be transferred to the General Management Department, officially making them cadres of the group's headquarters, or they will remain in Liaodong and work in the metallurgical plant.
Neither of these two options is up to him; it depends on how the Secretary-General arranges things for him after returning to Beijing.
However, it's too early to say anything. The Secretary-General has only been working in Liaodong for less than a year, so how could he possibly be back so soon?
Although rumors have circulated that the group needs the secretary-general to quickly clarify the industrial management problems in Liaodong and return to the group to take charge of the work.
Zhang Enyuan believes that the Secretary-General will gradually shift his focus to the Beijing Group, but will definitely not suddenly abandon the work in Liaodong.
Therefore, he can serve as the Secretary-General for at least two more years. After that, his performance and achievements will be the deciding factors.
"The ventilation is really good; it's definitely because it's on a high floor."
He opened the window to test it, and a cold wind rushed in instantly, but it didn't feel cold at all compared to the indoor temperature.
Since the steel rolling mill closed, and the Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone rebuilt its heating system, the radiators in the new office building are no longer hot to the touch, although the indoor temperature is sufficient.
There are three main things to consider when choosing indoor heating systems: First, is the placement of the radiators correct, such as whether they are under the windowsill?
Secondly, is the design of the heating pipes reasonable? Thirdly, is the heating temperature up to standard?
These three points are naturally not a problem for the engineering construction company, especially for the leadership office.
"It's a new leather sofa."
Zhang Enyuan touched the sofa to feel its softness and examined it carefully.
He didn't know the difference between genuine leather and fake leather because there was no fake leather at that time; any sofa that felt like this material was genuine leather.
The softness is beyond doubt. Hongxing Steel Group has its own leather and chemical plants in its tertiary industries, so it has no shortage of leather and sponge, making the sofas naturally excellent.
However, these office furniture pieces, including the sofas, were not manufactured by Hongxing Steel Group itself, but were products of Chadian Farm.
For such a large corporation to try and save such a small amount of money by making its own sofas is simply ridiculous.
The sofa is made of genuine leather, as are the chairs in front of and behind the executive desk, demonstrating the luxurious nature of the group's leadership office.
Needless to say, the platform is much larger and made of better materials than even Li Huaide's coffin.
Li Xuewu didn't sit down to try it out. Instead, he looked at the lounge, the private bathroom, and the wall full of filing cabinets and maps.
The person who arranged this office must have visited several of his previous offices and knows his needs and habits very well.
You see, even Li Huaide's office doesn't have a square table, but there is a square table in the corner of the filing cabinet that can be used to lay out maps and design drawings.
Zhang Enyuan looked around the office with great curiosity, while Li Xuewu simply glanced around and left.
Whether he can use this office depends on whether he can return from Liaodong. If he returns with achievements and glory, this office will certainly be his.
If you've already suffered a setback in Liaodong, why bother with this office?
Never invest in your office space. At most, prepare a pair of slippers and a bed for temporary rest or duty. Nothing else.
You don't realize it when you move in, but when you move out, those things will only add to your frustrations.
He glanced at the time on his hand, then called Zhang Enyuan, who came out later, and they went upstairs together. The meeting was in the conference room on the tenth floor.
-
"The 560 million yuan in aid is just a reflection of its value," Jing Yunong explained at the meeting. "How many production orders we can get depends on how the Ministry of Machine Building allocates them; we can't just scramble for them."
"We still have certain advantages."
Gao Yaqin began by saying, "Whether in terms of transportation or product quality, our production capacity is fully capable of meeting the needs of orders."
"Even the best wine needs advertising; I think we should be more proactive."
Dong Wenxue also agreed with Gao Yaqin's point of view and took the initiative to speak up: "Whether it is the sales headquarters or the group's organization, we should showcase more excellent products to relevant units."
"Yes, seeing is believing, right?"
Li Huaide looked at the documents in his hand, then looked at everyone and said, "The total order of 565 million was a bit of a stretch for me at first."
He smiled and said, "Since it's aid, the cost must be cut very drastically. I even doubt whether we'll lose money."
"Fortunately, we have a production advantage."
When Cheng Kaiyuan saw him looking at him, he nodded slightly and said, "While reducing production costs and optimizing transportation conditions, our products are still very competitive."
"Then let's give it a try?" Li Huaide glanced at everyone and asked, "Any other opinions?"
Seeing that no one spoke, Li Huaide nodded and said, "I would appreciate it if the comrades in the sales department and the technical department could work together as well as possible."
He then looked at Gao Yaqin and said, "Comrade Yaqin, you just came back from the port city, so you must know the gap between us. I'm assigning this task to you."
"Okay, Director Li." Gao Yaqin nodded slightly and replied, "I'll contact the support office right away to see if there are any questions about the product application."
"Okay, let's leave it at that. Everyone, please raise your hands to vote."
Li Huaide put down the documents in his hand, looked at everyone, and asked, "Please raise your hand if you disagree with the idea of increasing production capacity through aid orders?"
"Okay, put your hands down." He glanced around and, seeing no one raise their hands, continued, "Those who agree with the suggestion to expand production capacity through aid orders, please raise your hands."
In unison, everyone raised their hands.
It wasn't an important issue to begin with, and it had already been discussed in previous office meetings many times; any problems that needed to be addressed had already been resolved.
Old Li started the discussion with this topic, hoping it would go smoothly and that everyone would agree on today's topic.
After discussing the 560 million NTD aid order for Annam, Li Huaide moved on to the second topic of discussion, following the meeting agenda.
"It concerns the construction of the international hotel project."
Li Huaide looked at the documents in his hand and said to everyone, "This project was initiated in September, but the actual planning began in May of this year."
He pointed to the documents beside him and looked at everyone, saying, "So far, construction is still at the level of basic infrastructure."
"If we don't rush the construction during winter, the International Hotel may not be able to be completed within the timeframe."
"How are the two projects offered by the International Hotel going?"
Gu Weijie asked, "It's winter now, so the ecological vegetation construction work along the Liangma River is going to be stopped. What about the riverside garden residential area construction? Is it also stopped?"
"The residential area hasn't stopped construction yet, but the landscaping project has basically stopped." Xue Zhifu adjusted his glasses and looked at the documents in his hand as he said, "The landscaping project should be able to catch up with the trenching work during the winter."
"We have the reserves from the autumn harvest in the residential area, so we should be able to keep the business going until next spring without any problems."
"This is actually for the best—"
Li Huaide nodded slightly and emphasized, "The International Hotel is not included. The construction period for the greening of the Eco-industrial Zone and the Riverside Garden Residential Area can only be extended to the end of next year. You need to be aware of this for your projects."
"And another thing." As if remembering something, he pointed in Xue Zhifu's direction and emphasized, "But even if you only do the work in front of your house, you also need to go out and find some other work. There are quite a few projects both domestically and internationally this year."
"This construction company is already considering it."
Xue Zhifu explained, "Frontier Hami Mining is preparing to build an open-pit coal mine, and both the construction company and the energy company have sent professional teams."
He glanced at Li Huaide, then looked at the crowd and explained, "This time, we will focus on engineering construction and energy cooperation, and carry out cooperation from multiple angles and through multiple channels."
"Technical support can be provided."
