Chapter 1422 Secret Efforts
"On the way to the steel city, I was still thinking about what Director Li meant by what he told me before I left," Chen Shuzhi said with a smile, looking at Li Xuewu beside her. "I only truly understood it when I got here."
"Hehe, Director Li loves to meddle in other people's business."
Li Xuewu turned to look at him and said with a light laugh, "Sometimes I can't even manage it well."
Is this a joke or a serious one?
Chen Shuzhi was a little numb. In front of the driver and secretary, she talked badly about the group's top leader to her boss.
How should I respond?
I need help urgently!
"But Director Li means well, he treats everyone the same, especially a new comrade like you."
Li Xuewu noticed Chen Shuzhi's surprised and cautious gaze, but didn't pay much attention as he leaned over and took his thermos from the front armrest, unscrewed it, and drank from it.
This car was leftover from Lao Li. After he replaced it with a Hongqi, he insisted on giving it to Li Xuewu.
At that time, Li Xuewu was not yet qualified to use this car, so it was placed in the car fleet. It wasn't until he was promoted to secretary-general and officially assigned to Liaodong that he truly used it.
Hongxing Steel Group has its own automobile manufacturing plant, a complete auto parts industry supply chain, and a high-end modified vehicle testing base.
To put it simply, the exterior of this vehicle still looks like a Volga M24, but the interior decoration completely lacks the rough style typical of Russian vehicles.
It has everything you could need, even a mini radio; this is Li Xuewu's mobile office.
Sitting in the back of the passenger seat, Chen Shuzhi could truly feel this; the style of the car's modifications revealed the Secretary-General's character and work style.
Understated luxury with substance?
"Although you've only just started working at the group, Director Li must have spoken with you, right?"
Li Xuewu blew on the hot tea in his thermos and looked at Chen Shuzhi beside him again, asking, "Did he talk to you about the group's corporate culture and development history?"
"Hehehe——"
From Chen Shuzhi's slightly surprised and embarrassed expression, Li Xuewu had already gotten the answer he wanted.
Or perhaps the answer was exactly what he expected.
"Director Li is indeed very good and gentle."
What else could Chen Shuzhi say? Could he tell the story of how Director Li had kept him talking for an entire afternoon?
The story begins with that thrilling and dangerous trip to the frontier.
It's boring enough to listen to, why make him talk about it himself? Isn't that self-punishment?
"Over time you'll find that he's actually very easy to get along with, at least easier than me."
Li Xuewu drank the hot tea, tightened the thermos, and handed it to Zhang Enyuan in the passenger seat.
While he was speaking, Chen Shuzhi carefully observed his expression and found not a trace of humility or hypocrisy.
What a complex person he must be.
The group's secretary-general has multiple identities. He has a high position and a broad vision. What is a secret to others is not a secret to him.
His complex identity has led to his outstanding work performance, but it has also shrouded the group leader beside him in mystery, making him seem unclear.
What do you mean by "at least easier to get along with than him"?
Is this a response to what Director Li emphasized when he came to Gangcheng?
If that's the case, then this person is incredibly cunning; he's really being rather ambiguous.
Even though he had carefully processed the rumors and accepted the advice he received, and knew he dared not underestimate the other person's age, he was still pulled up and pointed at by the other person.
Are all the managers at Hongxing Steel Group like this?
If so, then he's really fallen into a wolf's den.
June has ended and July has begun, which also means that more than half of 69 years have passed.
Over the past six months, the People's Daily summarized a piece of good news: my country has had a bumper harvest of wheat crops.
No need to be surprised, the word "harvest" has appeared in newspapers every year recently, and with increasing frequency.
what does this mean?
We have passed through the most difficult period of natural selection and are now working towards solving the problem of food and clothing.
What about industrial development?
We ignore everything else and only look at Hongxing Steel Group.
On July 1, the United Industrial News reported that the Liangmahe Ecological Industrial Zone Workers' New Village project has added a new member: Hongxing Steel Group plans to build a large workers' club and a standardized liquefied gas station in the workers' new village.
The former reflects the group's concern for the cultural and recreational life of its employees, while the latter reflects the group's efforts to improve the quality of life for its employees.
What's the point of building a club?
In this era, workers cannot do without clubs. During the university study period, in order to strengthen the management of the organization, various clubs were successively banned.
Now that Hongxing Steel Group is going to build and invest in a new club for its workers, what does this mean?
That's right, the constraints and restrictions on employees' recreational activities have been relaxed, at least to some extent.
This is especially true after cities have alleviated the employment pressure on young people and the difficulties in job placement for graduates.
The influx of tens of millions of urban youths into rural society has not only intensified the transformation of agriculture and rural areas, but also accelerated farmers' progress towards new-era farming standards.
Some people say that young people from the city go to the countryside to cause trouble and create problems, but that's not true.
It is wrong to generalize from limited examples; there are many people who have made genuine efforts and work for rural development.
Young people of this era have ideals, ambitions, and pursuits, and more importantly, a spirit of hard work and perseverance.
At least Li Xuewu didn't hear of anyone secretly running home during his several trips back to Beijing, so he must still have some backbone.
Agricultural development is inseparable from industry, and industrial development is inseparable from agriculture. In the first half of this year, China achieved great success in the development of ordinary low alloy steel.
The metallurgical plant, rolling mill, and hardware plant of Hongxing Steel Group have worked together to produce plowshare steel, bridge steel, reinforcing steel, power plant steel, and coal mining machinery steel using certain alloying elements unique to my country. The quality of these products has surpassed that of similar well-known foreign brands.
The two largest agricultural water pumps in my country, developed and manufactured with the participation of Hongxing Electronics, have been successfully trial-produced, and the level of automatic control of the entire pump has reached the international advanced level.
You said that it takes the collaboration of several factories to complete the research and development of an automatic control program for a water pump?
Starting from one hundred and starting from zero are completely different things. In this era, the technology imported from abroad was either outdated or contained ulterior motives.
Very few companies truly operate like Hongxing Steel Group, consistently holding foreign businesses in check during collaborations.
As Li Xuewu was introducing Chen Shuzhi to the industrial achievements of Liaodong in the past six months, the convoy also drove into Fengcheng.
***
"Secretary-General Li, welcome, welcome!"
The convoy had just stopped in front of the building when someone led a group down the steps. Upon seeing Li Xuewu and his entourage get out of the car, the person greeted them with a smile and repeated greetings.
"This is Wang Xin, the deputy director of Shenyang Aircraft Corporation." An office deputy director stepped forward and introduced the two.
"No need for introductions, I've met Secretary-General Li before."
Before the office director could introduce the guests, Wang Xin smiled, shook Li Xuewu's hand, and nodded, saying, "Last time you and Director Li from your unit visited Liaodong, I was fortunate enough to attend that industrial symposium."
He said very modestly, "I still remember Secretary-General Li's speech at the meeting very well, and I am particularly impressed by the points you made about the industrial development in Liaodong."
"Please excuse my humble opinion. It is an honor for us at Shenyang Aircraft Corporation to have the opportunity to learn and visit."
It is only polite to reciprocate. Since the other party was speaking so politely, Li Xuewu naturally had to say something nice in return.
He shook the other person's hand and said warmly, "Thank you for the invitation, thank you."
"You're too kind. It's an honor to have you all here at Shenyang Aircraft Corporation."
Wang Xinyi clearly wasn't the deputy factory director in charge of industrial production; he was more likely in charge of operations or logistics.
Look at his interpersonal skills and social interactions. Is this the kind of good temper and attitude that a deputy factory director who climbed up from the workshop could have?
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Li Xuewu turned around and introduced his companions to the other party.
Wang Xin was somewhat surprised to hear that the executive deputy secretary-general of Hongxing Steel Group had also come.
Under normal circumstances, the Secretary-General and the Executive Deputy Secretary-General will not attend an event of an external organization together.
It's possible to participate in activities within the group, but how can you participate in activities of other affiliated units like this?
One secretary-general isn't enough, so why add an executive vice president? That's ridiculous. Even adding an executive vice president isn't enough; you don't even need a regular deputy director.
In the brief moment that Wang Xin was stunned, Chen Shuzhi had already shaken hands with him and then politely stepped aside.
Li Xuewu continued introducing his accompanying team, but Wang Xin didn't even notice the engineers being introduced.
He was wondering if the executive vice president of Hongxing Steel Group had come to Liaodong because there had been some changes in the other party's group, and who he would talk to about the next cooperation.
What is Wang Xin suspecting?
Does Li Xuewu's presence at Shenyang Aircraft Corporation's event with his executive vice president mean he's leaving?
Generally, only when a supervisor is being transferred will they bring their successor to participate in activities with the same organization.
If he didn't have some other purpose, Wang Xin wouldn't have lost his composure like this, nor would he have been so uncertain about his thoughts.
There is a procedure for welcoming them to visit and participate in activities, and the office director promptly reminded Wang Xin of this.
"I heard you're going to launch a large airplane?"
As he stepped up the stairs toward the temporary rest area, Li Xuewu asked the question so bluntly.
We're already here, we'll see each other soon, so what's the point of keeping it a secret? Just ask if you want.
Wang Xin paid close attention to the industrial scale of Hongxing Steel Group in Liaodong, and he also paid attention to Li Xuewu.
Knowing yourself and your enemy is the key to victory in every battle. If you don't know the main person in charge of Hongxing Steel Group in Liaodong, how can the conversation proceed?
Because they knew Li Xuewu, as well as his identity and achievements, they took the initiative to invite Hongxing Steel Group to participate in the event at the factory work meeting.
Generally speaking, Shenyang Aircraft Corporation (SAC) will not invite companies outside the Third Ministry of Machinery Industry, or even companies unrelated to aircraft, to participate in such test flight activities.
But as Wang Xin mentioned at the meeting, Hongxing Steel Group Liaodong Industrial has steel helicopters, although they are helicopters, they also have an aircraft industry.
Therefore, just before the event was about to begin, he personally prepared this invitation and arranged for the deputy director of his office to personally deliver it to the metallurgical plant.
He knew where Li Xuewu was, so the invitation was sent very accurately, which also proves that he knew Li Xuewu well.
Li Xuewu's personal presence, even disregarding the late and urgent timing of the invitation, and the large team he brought, clearly demonstrates his sincerity.
Therefore, the two communicated very smoothly, and the rhythm and atmosphere of the conversation were very harmonious.
"I don't know if Secretary-General Li is familiar with the situation of our fighter jet industry."
Wang Xin looked at Li Xuewu and explained softly, "We were commissioned by the Third Ministry of Machinery Industry to develop a new type of fighter jet, and we are conducting test flights and training exercises at today's event."
"Haha, then I'll wait and see!"
Li Xuewu was naturally delighted; such an opportunity was rare even in later generations, and it must have been incredibly precious in this era.
He said that anyone he chose to accompany him could not come without being approved by the factory's confidentiality department.
Seeing is learning. Today we have a helicopter manufacturing plant to watch fighter jets test flights, and tomorrow we will invite them to visit and learn from our fighter jet test flights.
This is what is meant by "it is impolite not to reciprocate."
The visiting team from Hongxing Steel Group was indeed highly valued by Shenyang Aircraft Corporation (SAC). Perhaps they did not expect Hongxing Steel Group to take SAC's invitation so seriously.
As Li Xuewu led the team from Hongxing Steel Group into the performance area to take their seats, they were met with surprised and astonished glances from all around them.
Some people knew Li Xuewu, while others didn't, but the uniform attire, name tags, and badges worn by the employees of Hongxing Steel Group's headquarters made it impossible for even a blind person to mistake him.
When faced with these gazes that seemed to say, "Why are they here?", the visiting team from Hongxing Steel Group straightened their backs and felt a surge of pride.
Today's event is themed around airplanes, but we can participate in tomorrow's events themed around cars, electronics, and steel. That's what it means to have the strength to not be low-key!
Why is Shenyang Aircraft Corporation called a factory instead of a group? How many group-type enterprises are there in China right now?
What do they have to be ashamed of or proud of?
Li Xuewu followed the staff into the venue with a smile, and only when he sat down did he notice that a group of proud little ducks were following behind him.
With its head held high and its posture upright, it walks with an air of grandeur and majesty, just like a fledgling duckling just starting out in its life.
The event was straightforward. When a white line streaked across the sky with a "whoosh," the mouths of the people observing through binoculars on the viewing platform gaped open, and even the eyes inside the binoculars widened.
"...This is my country's first domestically designed fighter jet, and the maiden flight activities have officially begun..."
"This is the J-8—"
Li Xuewu looked up, still watching the graceful arc receding into the distance through the telescope, his heart filled with excitement.
From this moment on, we are no longer starting from scratch; one day we will catch up with the great powers.
When the great powers had powerful ships and cannons, we had an iron will. We hope that when we also possess such powerful ships and cannons, our enemies will also have an iron will.
"...This fighter jet is primarily responsible for air superiority and interception missions..."
As the event host, Wang Xin continued to introduce relevant data and information, but the eyes of everyone on stage never left the sky.
Some people tilt their heads back for too long, and even when their necks ache, they are reluctant to put down their binoculars.
Everyone is eagerly hoping that this advanced fighter jet can be put into service as soon as possible.
Even though its origins weren't exactly cutting-edge, Li Xuewu vaguely remembered that this fighter jet was actually designed with reference to the Russian MiG-21 fighter jet.
That is, the J-7.
According to Wang Xin, this fighter jet is equipped with two WP-7A turbojet engines and has an extended nose to improve its high-altitude combat capabilities.
The basic model is equipped with two LMC-7A turbojet engines, with a maximum speed of Mach 2.2, a 23mm twin-barrel cannon, and seven external hardpoints. It can use PL-2, PL-5, and PL-8 short-range air-to-air missiles, PL-11 medium-range radar-guided air-to-air missiles, as well as unguided munitions and rockets.
Chen Shuzhi and Zhang Enyuan had never participated in such activities before and knew little about fighter jets.
Laymen just watch the spectacle; they hold up their binoculars and watch the planes whiz by, thinking it's amazing and impressive how they change flight maneuvers in the air.
If you ask them to describe how amazing this plane is, they can't. Does flying fast count?
While watching the test flight overhead, Li Xuewu listened to Wang Xin's introduction over the loudspeaker, and at the same time tried hard to recall the details of this "outdated" aircraft.
At that time, the aircraft was not called the J-8, and the research project was just a string of meaningless numbers.
It is now 69. Li Xuewu recalled that the design of this aircraft was not finalized until ten years later, and it was also ten years later that it began mass production and service.
Well, the order should be: produce a batch, research and develop a batch, and think about a batch.
However, Li Xuewu does not know whether Shenyang Aircraft Corporation has such strong technological reserves and R&D capabilities at this stage.
Perhaps it is out of necessity that this fighter jet, which is no longer so advanced, will only be mass-produced and put into service more than ten years later.
It's important to understand that a fighter jet at this time has more than 10,000 parts and more than 1,000 standard components.
From the assembly of more than 100 components to the joining of the front and rear fuselage, the joining of the fuselage and wings, and the installation of the engine and fuel tanks on the aircraft, everything had to be done successfully on the first try.
According to Wang Xin's introduction, Li Xuewu learned that Shenyang Aircraft Corporation had already completed the final assembly of the first two J-8 fighters, which were still just a string of numbers at the time, as early as July of last year.
It has only achieved its maiden flight today. What exactly happened during that time, or how many difficulties were encountered and dealt with? It is clear that the process from research and development to production is not a simple matter.
It was only later that I learned that the on-site commander of today's test flight was the deputy chief of the Air Force.
When the plane landed smoothly on the distant tarmac and headed toward the reviewing stand, Li Xuewu realized that the test pilot for both planes today was the same person.
Heroic pilot Yin Yuhuan.
"From the J-8 aircraft's feasibility study to its maiden flight, we went through stages including overall layout, technical design, wooden prototype review, drawing issuance, new aircraft manufacturing, and testing, which took 4 years and 10 months..."
Standing on the stage, Wang Xin spoke with deep emotion: "During this period, we received care and encouragement from our leaders, including..."
When the emotional part came on, Li Xuewu had already put down his binoculars and was carefully examining the huge thing not far from the viewing platform.
This aircraft also has a code name, "Handsome Man in the Sky," which Li Xuewu thinks is well-deserved. Observing it up close, it is indeed very beautiful, a masculine beauty.
If you were to be blasted by it, wouldn't that be incredibly masculine and powerful?
***
"Can we build this kind of aircraft?"
Chen Shuzhi was quite excited. When the event ended and everyone was leaving, she took the initiative to ask the engineer Gangfei next to her.
Judging from the engineer's conflicted gaze and strange expression, you could tell he had hit the nail on the head.
Li Xuewu smiled, didn't reply, and turned to lead the way away.
How should I answer this question? To produce this kind of aircraft, you need at least a proper factory, right?
What? You mean Steel Fly?
Yes, you're right. Steelfly is very serious, but it lacks foundation and technical reserves.
To put it simply, none of the three helicopter models that SteelAir is about to produce or is preparing to produce were developed, designed, or test-flown by SteelAir itself; they had absolutely no involvement in the development.
We import production lines from abroad and replicate their parts exactly as they are made, using CNC machine tools and high-standard lathes to ensure the precision and quality of these parts.
Under these conditions, the KH-4 helicopters imported from Japan are still in the trial production stage.
The Jaguar and Lark III are still in the equipment installation and debugging stage, and there is still some time before mass production.
When he returned this time, Old Li jokingly asked Li Xuewu if he would be able to see the jaguar and Lark III before he died.
You tell me, this question is so unreasonable, how is Li Xuewu supposed to answer it?
Li Xuewu said that jaguars are hard to catch because they bite, but three larks are still a good option.
Similarly, Li Xuewu didn't dare to boast about how successful Gangfei was in front of Lao Li. Chen Shuzhi must have been so shocked that he dared to ask when Gangfei's engineers would be able to design and produce such a "handsome man".
That means he wants it.
I can't do it—
I imagine this is what the engineer was feeling right now; he really couldn't do it.
From graduating from school to starting work, and then to working at SteelAircraft, he has chosen the helicopter track. If you ask him to answer the question about the fighter jet track, he would want to cry.
Is it difficult to produce this kind of fighter jet?
Perhaps he also noticed the engineer's constipated expression, and felt some doubt and confusion.
When they arrived at the banquet, he quietly asked Li Xuewu a question.
Li Xuewu smiled and nodded to Wang Xin as he walked over, muttering to himself, "If you work hard now and win over Deputy Factory Director Wang, we'll definitely be able to build fighter jets within ten years."
"Really?" Chen Shuzhi asked incredulously, then realized she was really being idiotic.
Li Xuewu also realized that this deputy was a bit naive; he actually believed what the deputy said casually.
"Secretary-General Li, I apologize for the poor hospitality." Wang Xin acted very modestly, a stark contrast to his serious and dignified demeanor on stage at the event.
"If this is considered poor hospitality..."
Li Xuewu smiled and gestured to the table full of food, then looked at him and said, "Next time you visit our company, I don't know how to entertain you."
"Hahaha—" Wang Xin laughed and sat down next to Li Xuewu, in the seat that had been reserved for him.
"Secretary-General Li, I would also very much like to visit the Red Star Model enterprises that are highly praised by Deputy Director Du."
He raised his glass to Li Xuewu and said, "Now that you've said that, I'm really taking this seriously."
"You are welcome to join Hongxing Steel Group anytime."
Li Xuewu raised his glass and clinked it with his; they were on equal footing, like brothers, with no hierarchy between them.
He smiled slightly and said frankly, "The doors of Red Star Steel are always open to our friends."
"I respect you—" Wang Xin remained very polite.
The two finished their drinks, revealing the bottoms of their glasses, displaying their openness and boldness.
"I was just telling our factory director Zhou that it's more convenient for us to visit the steel city with you here."
Wang Xin took the initiative to ask, "I just didn't know if you often return to the capital, in terms of timing..."
What does he want to ask?
The question is about Li Xuewu's main focus in his work.
This question came from Chen Shuzhi, who was working alongside Li Xuewu; it was a misunderstanding on Wang Xin's part.
If Li Xuewu's focus is on the group, then it's only right that someone comes to the steel city to be his deputy.
If Li Xuewu's work focus is on the steel city, then what's the deal with this executive deputy?
Li Xuewu is such a clever person. Xu Sinian said that if you put on some hair, you'd look like a monkey, and that's absolutely true.
“There’s no problem with the timing. The group’s focus for the next few years will be on the Liaodong industry, and I’m also learning.” Li Xuewu smiled and looked at him as he said, “That’s why I really hope to have more exchanges with our brother units in Liaodong.”
"That's great—"
Wang Xin gave Chen Shuzhi a strange look, and seeing that the other party did not change his expression after hearing Li Xuewu's words, he felt a little relieved.
It seems this executive vice president isn't coming to oversee operations at the Liaodong Industrial Plant of Hongxing Steel Group.
Now that the problem has been identified, he decided to focus on his objective, since his time was also valuable.
“My office subscribes to the United Industries Daily News, which is a newspaper I read every day.”
Wang Xin smiled and said, "I also learned from the United Industry News that our group has broken through the R&D barriers of CNC machine tools and achieved mass production of machine tools?"
"Yes, thank you for your attention and support." Li Xuewu smiled and said, "Currently, some machine tools have achieved mass production, but they are still under construction, after all, there are large projects following up."
He spoke very vaguely, and people who weren't paying attention would definitely not understand him, but Wang Xin was very attentive to these developments.
He keenly sensed the hidden meaning in Li Xuewu's words, his eyebrows twitched slightly, and he nodded, asking, "Is it about building an integrated industrial park in the steel city?"
"Your group's industrialization standards for parts manufacturing are a project that I am very interested in."
Wang Xin looked intently at Li Xuewu's expression and asked, "How is the project progressing?"
"Your question makes me feel like I'm back in the office; it's so professional."
Li Xuewu laughed it off, not answering his question directly, but instead cracking a joke.
Chen Shuzhi glanced at Wang Xin meaningfully, wanting to see what kind of expression the other party would have when facing Li Xuewu.
Wang Xin remained calm and listened to Li Xuewu's rambling with a smile. Li Xuewu was also observing his expression, and it all came down to the sincerity of the cooperation.
The meal was a pleasant one for both the host and guests, but Li Xuewu remained silent throughout. However, as he left, he indicated that he would actively communicate with other leaders of the group upon returning home.
When asked about Wang Xin's earnest inquiry, he said he would give a reply as soon as possible.
However, when he got into the car, he saw that Wang Xin had seen them off downstairs, and he couldn't help but offer a suggestion.
"I was just reflecting on today's test flight. I'm not an expert, so please don't mind my ramblings."
Standing beside the car, Li Xuewu looked at Wang Xin and said earnestly, "There's a saying in martial arts novels: 'In all martial arts, speed is the only way to win.'"
"After seeing the speed of the J-8, I agree with this approach, but..."
Wang Xin was quite surprised when Li Xuewu offered his opinion, because he knew that Li Xuewu was not an expert.
He had already thoroughly investigated Li Xuewu's background and knew that he was a college student, but there was some exaggeration in that.
At least not being an engineering student, Secretary-General Li's attempt to offer opinions in the field of aircraft is truly presumptuous and laughable.
But as he listened, he sensed something was wrong, and the smile in his heart vanished abruptly. Seeing a shift in Li Xuewu's words, he became even more attentive.
“Flying higher and faster is a good thing.” Li Xuewu nodded, raised his hand and pointed to the sky, saying, “But if the target is maneuvering at low to medium altitudes and has internationally competitive weaponry and flight performance, can your aircraft handle it?”
This question was like the pressure point technique from traditional martial arts novels that Li Xuewu had just mentioned, which made Wang Xin stand there dumbfounded. He didn't even realize that Li Xuewu and the others had gotten into the car and left, and just stared straight ahead.
The deputy director of the office was extremely anxious; this was the first time Deputy Factory Director Wang had ever lost his composure during an event.
What comments or questions did the secretary-general of Hongxing Steel Group raise that caused Deputy Factory Director Wang to lose his composure like this?
This question was on the minds of not only Shenyang Aircraft Corporation staff, but also the visiting delegation from Hongxing Steel Group.
What is Wang Xin thinking?
He was caught in a cycle of self-doubt and self-denial, with only one contradiction in his mind: whether Li Xuewu truly understood aircraft design, and what considerations led him to make that suggestion.
How exactly did he spot the J-8's weakness in low-to-medium altitude maneuverability, or was it because he was very familiar with North Korean aircraft that he had such keen insight?
In summary, Li Xuewu's words mean that while the J-8 is good, the focus should be on improving the aircraft's low- and medium-altitude maneuverability and perfecting its avionics, weapons, and fire control systems.
Is this the kind of opinion that a college graduate majoring in Marxism-Leninism could think of and give?
He cheated!
On July 1, the audit team, convened by the Liaodong Industrial Leading Group Office and with the support of the group, completed the audit of Liaodong industrial enterprises.
During this audit, a total of 323 discrepancies between the accounts and the records were discovered. The relevant issues have been compiled into a rectification log, and the relevant departments have issued rectification notices in accordance with the relevant work management regulations.
Similarly, in accordance with the Group's relevant systems and management methods, those responsible for the issues were dealt with. Regarding any violations or breaches of discipline that occurred during the audit, these issues were simultaneously transferred to the supervisory department.
With this, the organizational structure and personnel reform of Hongxing Steel Group's Liaodong industrial enterprises have been initially completed.
From that day on, Hongxing Steel Group officially normalized cross-auditing. At least during Li Xuewu's years in Liaodong, no one should dare to exploit loopholes.
On July 2, after giving Li Xuewu a detailed report on the work of the Group's Comprehensive Management Department, Chen Shuzhi, the Group's Executive Deputy Secretary-General, set off from Gangcheng back to Beijing.
Zhang Jing, director of the Liaodong Industrial Leading Group Office, saw him off at the train station.
Before coming here, Chen Shuzhi wanted to know what to do next. Now that she knows, she will naturally be more prepared when she goes back.
On the same day, the design team of the International Hotel Reconstruction Project also produced its first draft design proposal.
Li Xuewu was naturally the first to see the draft. The staff member who brought the draft also reported that the cooperation negotiations were going smoothly and that Santayar Group wanted to expedite the cooperation.
The most noticeable progress is that everyone is waiting for the design team to provide a budget and quote before they can continue discussions.
It needs to be built well, but also cost less money. Even with loans, the pressure is still immense.
Li Xuewu read the draft but didn't offer any specific opinions; he only expressed concern about safety and fire prevention.
The European team that designed the hotel is professional; there's no need for him to interfere.
He Yushui, the stubborn mule, also didn't want him to boss her around.
By the end of June this year, universities in Beijing had basically completed the job placement process for their graduating students.
Similarly, the publicity team, which was established to recruit talent for the group, has also come to an end.
As the head of the publicity team, He Yushui, who has performed outstandingly in talent recruitment last year and this year, has naturally been given the opportunity to advance.
When she was setting up and leading the propaganda team, her personnel file was transferred from the International Hotel to the cultural troupe, where she also served as the head of the propaganda department.
Now that the propaganda team is about to disband, He Yushui also needs to be reassigned to a new job, so having her in charge of cultural and artistic propaganda work is a bit out of place.
When she learned about her new position, she couldn't help but call Li Xuewu's office.
She knew that she got the position because of Li Xuewu's recommendation.
"What do you mean?"
A stubborn donkey is a stubborn donkey; even its tone of voice is like a donkey's.
He Yushui questioned on the phone: "I was doing well in the workshop, and you transferred me to the International Hotel. I had just gotten used to the service work, and then you transferred me to the propaganda team. Now that the propaganda team's work is over, you've put me in charge of the International Hotel's work."
She shouted into the phone, "Who do you take me for?"
"Successors to socialism."
Li Xuewu's answer was firm, without a trace of joking or nonsense, but that's exactly how He Yushui perceived it.
She was speechless. She had just thought of many questions to ask him, but now she couldn't utter a single one.
What do you want me to do?
He Yushui asked irritably, "Take over President Han's job and go back to the International Hotel in style?"
The word "glory" in her words must have been in quotation marks, because she didn't seem to find it glorious at all.
Li Xuewu sighed softly and emphasized, "This is an organizational and personnel arrangement. You're playing house. You have no reason or right to be modest or polite."
"You either obey the organization's arrangements or refuse them and resign to go home."
His words were somewhat serious, and also a punishment for He Yushui's impulsiveness. Was his phone so easy to call?
He Yushui was a little anxious. If it were in front of him, she would definitely have a good talk with him, but not now.
The phone call was over a thousand miles away, and countless people could hear the conversation, so she couldn't just spout nonsense.
So she listened to Li Xuewu's reprimands, but she wanted to ask, how exactly should this job be done?
"Everyone is saying that Santayah Group and Red Star Steel are going to cooperate to rebuild the International Hotel."
He Yushui explained, "Everyone knows that the International Hotel is going to be a big success. I left here, and now I'm back as the general manager, so what's the situation?"
"If I just go back like this, people will say I'm picking the fruits of others' labor, that I'm always going where the good ones are—"
"Therefore, you need to strengthen your study of organizational discipline, prioritize organizational self-cultivation, draw organizational knowledge from innovative organizational theories, and regard learning, implementing, and abiding by organizational discipline as an important part of your self-cultivation..."
He Yushui was dumbfounded. I just asked you what the point of launching a surprise attack was, and how Han Yating should be arranged. Why are you telling me all this?
Is this something I can understand now?
The transfer order had actually been issued, but He Yushui had been working at the university and hadn't noticed the personnel announcement from the group.
Furthermore, she had just finished the final work of the propaganda team and hadn't had time to return to the group to complete the handover when she suddenly received the transfer order, which surprised her greatly.
Where did Han Yating go?
The transfer order clearly states that Han Yating, the former general manager of the International Hotel, is being transferred to the position of deputy editor-in-chief of the Red Star Literature and Art Publishing House.
Who held this position before?
Yes, that's right, it's Ding Feng, who just took office as the director of the Comprehensive Management Department of Hongxing Steel City Metallurgical Plant.
What was Han Yating thinking when she went from the International Hotel to the Literature and Art Publishing House?
Nobody knew, but there was nothing strange about the transfer order, as both positions were management roles.
Han Yating has worked at the International Hotel long enough; it's time to make further arrangements.
Where can I go after leaving the Literature and Art Publishing House?
Many people already know the answer to this question; it's simply the group's publicity department.
This is good news for Han Yating, and also good news for He Yushui, because she is completely unfamiliar with arts and culture management work, so returning to her original unit is the best option.
She has experience in organizational work, grassroots management, and special work management.
Giving her more intensive training and promoting her to middle management is also a reward for her recent work performance.
Li Xuewu didn't really want to talk to her. He had too much work to do. The division of labor meeting hadn't been held yet, and Shen Fei's cooperation discussion meeting still needed to be held. He was too busy to keep up.
Zhang Songying was scolded by him for asking about the acquisition of the affiliated pharmaceutical factory of Beijing Central Hospital. Given He Yushui's pretentious nature, it would be strange if he didn't scold her.
On July 4, the Gangcheng Metallurgical Plant of Hongxing Steel Group held a plant affairs meeting. At the meeting, Li Xuewu, as the team leader, read out the Group's decision to appoint the executive deputy director of the metallurgical plant.
Surprisingly, and certainly not to everyone's surprise, Li Xuewu actually supported Yang Zongfang's appointment as executive deputy factory director.
This is very different from the candidate Li Haiyang was initially thought to be; they are not even on the same page.
The fact that everyone was surprised at the meeting did not stop Li Xuewu from continuing to read out the division of labor.
"Comrade Yang Zongfang, the executive deputy factory director, assists in presiding over factory affairs and is also in charge of the work of the General Management Department of the administrative office."
"Comrade Wang Zhijun, the chief engineer, is in charge of the Quality, Safety and Environmental Protection Division; Comrade Luo Zhongkang is in charge of the Comprehensive Business Management Division; and Comrade Zeng Meiyi is in charge of the Organization Management Division."
No one was curious about how the three new deputy factory directors would divide their responsibilities; they were only curious about what Li Xuewu was thinking. They were all certain that without Li Xuewu's support, no one would dare to arrange for Yang Zongfang to advance and cause him trouble.
Yang Zongfang, you've been working hard in secret?
