"Things are a little complicated."
Bu Qingfang walked into the office carrying the documents and reported to Li Xuewu: "Li Baihui's family members came and blocked the door of the Discipline Inspection Commission to demand an explanation."
"What explanation do you want?" Li Xuewu raised his head and said in a slightly serious tone, "According to the requirements of Director Li and relevant leaders, the case has been handed over to the Security Department for investigation and handling."
"What do they want to say without drawing any further conclusions?"
He put down the pen in his hand and asked, "Didn't the comrades in the discipline inspection department handle it?"
"Zhou Zechuan is not here. He is leading the team on a mission. Deputy Director Lu Changhai is handling it."
Bu Qingfang could see that Li Xuewu was not very satisfied with the relevant work, and explained: "The General Management Department received a notice from the security department and organized relevant personnel to contact the situation..."
"I still say the same thing." Before Bu Qingfang could finish her words, Li Xuewu frowned and emphasized, "Everything will have to wait for the results of the Security Department's investigation and be handled based on that."
This is an expression of opinion on Bu Qingfang's work, and it is disapproval of her taking the initiative to handle the matter.
The General Management Department is the steward of the entire organization, handling all opinions outside the functions of all departments, and is also responsible for receiving visitors.
In other words, in the absence of a public opinion handling mechanism, the Comprehensive Management Department is responsible for handling relevant petitions.
The General Management Department will feedback the situation to the relevant departments and conduct supervision according to the actual situation.
The Comprehensive Management Department will also take the lead in compiling a report on the subsequent processing and submit it to the leadership for review.
Therefore, it can be seen that the General Management Department has absolute relevance in terms of authority.
But this time, Bu Qingfang's way of handling the problem was contrary to Li Xuewu's opinion.
"Don't compromise when a problem arises." Li Xuewu certainly understood the situation of the General Management Department.
He waved his hand, motioning Bu Qingfang to sit down opposite him, and said in a soothing tone: "The circumstances of this case are rather special and need to be handled with caution."
"I thought so too." Bu Qingfang didn't care too much about Li Xuewu's tone. She was the deputy and Li Xuewu was the principal, so it was normal for them to have such a conversation.
After sitting down, she took the initiative to explain: "Li Baihui's family members placed wreaths at the gate to mourn, and the security department was in a passive position."
“Someone is directing them.”
Li Xuewu pushed the file in front of him, leaned back in his chair, and said with disdain, "But the more this is the case, the more it shows that there is something wrong with Li Baihui."
"My idea is not to escalate the conflict." Bu Qingfang continued to explain: "If we can arrange for them to sit down and have a good talk, maybe there will be a way and possibility to resolve the relevant conflicts."
"There is no such possibility—"
Li Xuewu shook his index finger firmly and reminded her, "This time, the Beijing Railway Station has verified the relevant issues of Li Baihui. The other party has made it clear that he is innocent. The group will definitely deal with him seriously."
"Of course, he himself also felt the tense atmosphere and chose to commit suicide out of fear of crime."
He raised his chin slightly, pointed in the direction of the leadership office, and said softly: "Director Li and Deputy Director Gu are very angry."
"I understand." Bu Qingfang nodded and said, "Many family members came."
"Be tougher." Li Xuewu said bluntly: "Tell the discipline inspection department to reserve the right to further investigate Li Baihui's property issues. If the family members take any excessive actions, please ask the security department to strictly follow the public security management regulations."
He sat up straight, picked up his teacup and said, "I don't believe they can still go to heaven."
“Is it too tough?”
Bu Qingfang still lacked the experience and confidence to deal with this type of emergency.
Li Xuewu took a sip of hot tea, shook his head slightly, and said: "They are not here to seek justice for Li Baihui, because they know that there is no justice for Li Baihui."
"So they are..." Bu Qingfang understood in an instant, "Strong on the outside, but weak on the inside?"
"What else could it be?" Li Xuewu's eyes drooped, he put down his teacup and said, "They are just feeling guilty. Rather than coming to the agency to ask for an explanation, it's better to say that they want to test the group's attitude."
"We must not encourage this kind of evil trend."
He firmly emphasized to Bu Qingfang: "The General Management Department is not a dough, anyone can come and hit it."
"Another thing is that until the Security Department comes up with the results of the investigation, no one can express their views, otherwise the leadership will be in a passive position."
"Understood. I'll arrange it when I get down."
Bu Qingfang nodded, looked at Li Xuewu and asked tentatively: "Will Li Baihui's problem be involved?"
"Not sure, the Security Department is still investigating."
Li Xuewu shook his head slightly, glanced at her, and said, "You know, I basically don't ask about the work of the Security Department now. If there are any problems, they will be reported up the chain of command."
Even if he knew, he would not tell Bu Qingfang clearly in the office, and it would be the same no matter who came.
Just as he said just now, making statements easily before the facts are investigated clearly will only make the situation more passive.
Whether it is Li Xuewu or the Comprehensive Management Department, no individual or organization can cross this red line.
Bu Qingfang wanted to ask Li Xuewu this question in order to test the leader's attitude so that he could be prepared.
The General Management Department is always in a passive situation when dealing with public opinion, and every experience is a learning experience.
Bu Qingfang is a very motivated person and is serious and responsible about her work, as can be seen from the fact that she has worked in the propaganda department for many years.
Don’t say that the status of propaganda cadres has risen because the higher authorities now attach importance to propaganda work.
At any time, the organization has always attached great importance to publicity work.
The fact that he was trusted by the leadership to take charge of a large department and serve as the propaganda mouthpiece at the time shows how capable he was.
Li Xuewu proposed that he serve as deputy secretary-general, which was also a recognition of his abilities and qualifications by the group leaders.
Putting her in this position shows the trust in her ability to help Li Xuewu support the work of the Comprehensive Management Department.
At the same time, she is also being trained and tempered as a reserve cadre, and she is very clear about this.
In the early stages of organizational change, some heads of large departments were transferred to various branches and factories to serve as top leaders. This was an extraordinary period and an opportunity to start businesses.
As time goes on and the branches become more stable, there will be no chance of such a situation occurring again.
In other words, on the surface, Bu Qingfang lost not only the opportunity to advance, but also the time to struggle.
Needless to say, after three years, it will be impossible for a department head to become the head of a branch office.
Only the deputy or full-time positions in most departments have the possibility to serve as the head of each important branch or factory.
After Bu Qingfang has been in the position of deputy secretary-general for three years, he will have the opportunity to be transferred to the position of head of an important branch company at any time.
If you ask what the difference is, there is a difference.
The head of a branch rarely has the opportunity to be transferred back to the group, because this means that both his rank and position will be at the group leadership level.
Bu Qingfang took a path contrary to the norm and stayed in the office to work when the group's organization changed.
After a smooth transition out of the company, there is a great chance that he will be transferred back to the group and take up a leadership position.
Why did she have to wait so long? She would rather give up the opportunity to be transferred abroad and wait for her leader to give her a way out.
Before being transferred out, she must work hard and strive to make more contributions in the position of Deputy Secretary-General.
She was under a lot of pressure, really a lot.
First of all, as the manager of the General Management Department, you will have specific responsibilities and duties.
If the Secretary General is the group's chief steward, then she is the agency's chief steward.
Secondly, she is the deputy secretary-general of the group and the person primarily responsible for assisting Li Xuewu.
Many people already know where Li Xuewu is going. At the beginning of next year, she will assume more responsibilities and management work as deputy secretary-general.
Li Xuewu's work focus will shift to Gangcheng, and the identity of Secretary-General will be more like a symbolic meaning of group leadership.
In other words, she is not the Secretary-General, but she does the work of the Secretary-General, at least most of it.
Finally, during his tenure as Secretary-General, Li Xuewu's work and performance were obvious to all in the group.
Once there is a change in her job, it is time to be tested. This is both an opportunity and a challenge.
She showed active performance and Li Xuewu was willing to help and support her, but he couldn't act too hastily.
At present, he still needs to help Bu Qingfang take good care of his pulse, especially during this period of time, which is particularly critical.
The wind from above must be guided well and not blow randomly, and the wind from below must be fed back even more carefully and not blow randomly.
"We should pay attention to the public opinion and ideological trends of the group organs, and we should not just believe everything we hear."
Li Xuewu reminded her: "The General Management Department has the responsibility and obligation to maintain the normal working order of the agency."
"First of all, there must be no conflicts or discussions within the company, and we must stick to our work principles."
He pointed at his desk and emphasized, "Unless a leader gives instructions, we must follow the rules."
"Go to the Disciplinary Office now and explain my attitude to them. Just do what you need to do with the case. Don't feel any baggage."
Li Xuewu moved the teacup beside him, found the document and started reading it, saying, "These people came to the agency to ask for an explanation, which shows that there is something wrong with them. Let the disciplinary inspection department investigate further."
"First check the family relationship, then check the financial transactions. Whether Li Baihui committed suicide out of fear of punishment or for other reasons, it cannot be a means for him to escape the charges."
"okay, I get it."
Bu Qingfang stood up and said softly, "I am hesitant here, worried that there may be problems with the discipline inspection department."
"You know..." She tapped her hand on the table and reminded him cryptically, "Li Baihui won't be the last one. If there's a problem with his death, it will be even more troublesome and difficult for us to deal with it."
"Let's stabilize the situation first. If something goes wrong, there will be someone taller to take care of it." Li Xuewu pointed to the top of his head, then nodded and said, "Is Li Baihui the last one we can't control?"
"I understand, let's do it."
Bu Qingfang understood. Li Xuewu was ready to sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the tigers. The cage was already open, and he would not be satisfied unless a few of them died.
-
"Secretary General, you are busy."
Zhou Yao knocked on the office door and walked in. Her tone was somewhat similar to that of Bu Qingfang who had just left.
Li Xuewu raised his head with amusement and helplessness, looked at her and asked, "Are the results of the investigation out?"
Being transferred out of the security team and being told that he would not be involved in security work does not mean that he is not qualified to listen to the report of the Security Department.
His responsibilities are to organize and coordinate all departments of the group, and there is no emphasis here on limiting it to the headquarters.
The General Management Department is the department responsible for organization and coordination of the group, and the Secretary-General is the leader of the group.
However, there is no need for Zhou Yao to report to him even if there is work to do and the situation is complicated. Wang Xiaoqin is busy, is Yu Decai also busy?
He didn't know whether Yu Decai was busy or not, but he knew that Yu Decai was very smart and really didn't want to be involved in this cause and effect.
It seems that Zhou Yao was promoted and taught by Li Xuewu. They are not teacher and student, but there is a relationship of support and support between them.
Therefore, letting Zhou Yao report on work is more direct and will not offend anyone. This is what he is thinking about.
The last time Zhou Zechuan went to him to "tell the news", he also realized that he had become a thorn in the security department left by Li Xuewu and Dong Wenxue.
Zhou Zechuan can find him. If others want to compete with Dong Wenxue and Li Xuewu, they can also aim at him first as a test.
Feeling that the risk was too high, Yu Decai became increasingly low-key, especially at work.
Watching Zhou Yao enter the room, all of these thoughts suddenly came to Li Xuewu's mind.
When he was working in the security team, people said he was the fox of the Red Star Factory. Unexpectedly, after he left, he left behind a bunch of foxes called the Security Department.
If he is the tiger of the Security Department, then it would be very appropriate to say that these people are just taking advantage of the tiger's power.
"Boss, I hope I didn't disturb your work."
Zhou Yao was very considerate. She stuck out her tongue a little embarrassedly and sat down in front of the desk.
Li Xuewu glanced at the documents in her hand, nodded, and said, "Comrade Qingfang just left me."
"I heard that Li Baihui's family members are here, right?" Zhou Yao's attitude changed quickly, and he quickly got into work mode. He reported seriously, "The Discipline Inspection Commission just called, and I just caught up when I came back."
"The disciplinary supervisor said that the other party was very emotional. I have arranged for the on-duty personnel to deal with it."
"Well, these are minor issues."
Li Xuewu raised his hand and pointed at the document in her hand, indicating that he was asking, "Did you find out anything?"
"Yes, it has basically been confirmed that it was suicide."
Zhou Yao reported seriously: "We took notes and questioned all the investigators who had contact with him."
"At the same time, we also visited and investigated their respective work situations, as well as Li Baihui's work situation."
She spread out the documents and handed them to Li Xuewu one by one, saying, "According to the conclusion of the forensic doctor, he died of suffocation between 2 and 3 in the morning by strangling his neck with his trouser legs."
"We asked the disciplinary and supervisory case officers, and they strictly followed the detention procedures and removed Li Baihui's belt and shoelaces. We didn't expect this to happen."
"You can't commit suicide without shoelaces and a belt?"
Li Xuewu said with droopy eyebrows: "This situation shows that there are still problems with the detention procedure."
"They actually left the detained person alone during the one-hour break. The security department had to arrange two people to be on duty when handling cases."
He looked through the transcript and case investigation report in his hand with dissatisfaction, and his brows couldn't help but frown.
Zhou Yao did not respond to this conversation because she was just a cadre in the Security Department and had no authority over disciplinary and supervisory work.
When the Secretary-General said there was a problem, he was considering it from his perspective and he had the right to say so.
"We searched Li Baihui's office, but because the disciplinary inspection commission had already taken action, we found little."
After submitting all the documents, she sat there looking at Li Xuewu and said, "The medical examiner did not find any other cause of death, nor did he obtain any other evidence of injury, so..."
Therefore, there is no problem in the process of executing detention by the disciplinary inspection and supervision departments. The problems lie in the experience and system.
Even Li Xuewu, who was reading the files, didn't expect that Li Baihui would be so determined. Where did he get such determination?
Readers who have killed someone know that death by suffocation is a particularly horrific process. It is definitely not just the physical and physiological pain that is tested. The psychological pressure and pain are even more terrifying.
Li Baihui, 39 years old, has worked at the Red Star Factory for many years and has been working in the dispatching department.
Li Xuewu had almost no impression or understanding of him, and his only contact with the dispatching department was with the former director.
At such an old age with elderly parents and young children to take care of, he just committed suicide. What kind of pressure was he carrying behind his back?
For a deputy section chief of this age, there is no hope for advancement. Under the influence of some people, it is possible that he might use his position to seek personal gain and advantage.
But no matter how serious the crime is, it would not be enough to commit suicide.
Even if it is a crime punishable by death, how many people would dare to commit suicide? They would rather endure and be shot in the end.
"Leader, the clue is broken."
Zhou Yao saw that Li Xuewu was frowning and thinking, and although she couldn't bear to disturb him, she still reminded him.
Others may not understand Li Xuewu’s series of plans, but Zhou Yao has a closer relationship with him after all.
If you have some understanding of his methods and style of doing things, you can also grasp some of the situation by following the clues.
What's more, Li Xuewu did not hide his emotions from her. Considering the current ecological environment in the agency, it was not difficult for her to guess what Li Xuewu was going to do.
I am about to leave the capital, leave the group, and go to a steel city thousands of miles away to work, so I have to leave something behind.
In terms of achievements and merits, Li Xuewu has already left enough, and now he should leave behind more deterrence.
If there is no tiger in the mountain, the monkey will be the king.
Li Xuewu did not react. He knew that what Zhou Yao was worried about was that the clues were broken and whether the disciplinary inspection department would close the case and not investigate further.
How is this possible? Zhou Zechuan is now in a difficult situation. If he doesn't investigate the case thoroughly, his own official position will be in jeopardy. If he investigates the case thoroughly, he will have a glimmer of hope.
Therefore, it is not up to him whether to investigate or not. He has to investigate this case whether he wants to or not, and he has to investigate it desperately.
Li Xuewu never fails when he schemes against others.
In other words, when he set up his tight net, he left no way for anyone to escape.
He picked up the phone, called Wang Lu over, sorted out the documents in his hand, and said to Zhou Yao: "Don't worry about him, just do your job well. How to check this, wait for the leader's opinion."
At this time, Wang Lu walked in, nodded to Zhou Yao who turned around to look at her, and said, "Secretary-General, you called me."
"The Security Department has already made an investigation into the Discipline Inspection Commission case. Please compile it and submit it to Deputy Director Gu and Director Li."
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
Wang Lu habitually took the document, looked at it, and then stopped walking. She looked at Li Xuewu and asked softly, "Don't you have any opinions?"
"It depends on the leader's opinion."
Li Xuewu's answer was very casual, but Wang Lu knew that this was what he really meant.
In other words, we should first listen to the leader's opinion on this matter, and the secretary-general's opinion is not important.
This is very normal. Some problems and matters are not business-related, or require normal approval procedures.
The fact that this issue could be submitted from Zhou Yao to him represents the special nature of this issue.
As Li Xuewu, who once managed the security team and the discipline inspection department, would not easily express his opinion.
This matter has already been decided by Deputy Director Gu and Director Li, so he will not provide any opinions.
Wang Lu didn't ask any more questions and went out with the documents.
"Nothing else on hand, right?"
Li Xuewu saw Zhou Yao stand up, raised his head and looked at her, and said: "I have contacted Jinling. You and Gu Yan should consider whether to go there soon."
"Uh-Okay, I'll contact him."
This was the first time that Li Xuewu discussed private matters with her in the office, and Zhou Yao was quite uncomfortable with it.
After answering, he walked out of the door with his ears slightly red.
Looking at her back, Li Xuewu smiled and shook his head, then picked up the phone and called out.
"Help me connect to the Trade Management Center."
-
“If we introduce NSU Ro 80 as a whole, I think it’s still not appropriate.”
Xia Zhongquan presided over the new project seminar of the Automotive Research Institute and invited many technical personnel from relevant units of the research institute.
Of course, he also thought of inviting Li Xuewu to come and listen.
Anyone who works in design and scientific research at Red Star Steel Group knows that you can ask about the Secretary-General’s academic qualifications, but you must never ignore his opinion.
What he says and what he draws may seem childish sometimes, but if you think about it carefully, you may not be able to do it.
Being able to do something does not necessarily mean you can imagine it.
His thinking ability is advanced and his design perspective is unique, far ahead of his time. This is the consensus reached by many designers after communicating with the Secretary-General.
The first person to propose developing the automobile industry was the Secretary-General.
The first jeep and the first motorcycle both used the Secretary-General’s design ideas as reference.
It turns out that, as the Secretary-General intended, the design and functions of the relevant products have been tested and liked by the market.
So when seeing Li Xuewu sitting next to Chief Engineer Xia Zhongquan and listening to them talk about technology and design, no one felt it was awkward.
Of course, Li Xuewu really doesn’t understand design or technology, but after self-study, he can still understand some of it.
Thanks to Teacher Shangguan Qi and his own unremitting efforts, I am not at all afraid of being a leader.
No matter which group leader sits here, he wouldn’t dare to say that he understands technology and design better than Li Xuewu.
Otherwise, why would Li Huaide dare to arrange him to manage Liaodong Industry, which is a pure production base of the group.
Letting a cadre who used to be a security officer be in charge of production is so laughable that it makes your teeth burst out.
But what is the fact? No one, including those in the industrial system and cooperative units, dares to say that Li Xuewu does not understand industrial management.
I'm just kidding.
"My opinion is to take whatever is needed." Vehicle engineer Ding Lao raised the pencil in his hand and emphasized: "We must admit that Gemini has certain design limitations."
“At the same time, we are also looking forward to the rotary engine and vacuum clutch four-wheel drive technology equipped with the NSU Ro 80.”
While he was looking at Xia Zhongquan, he was also paying attention to the changes in Secretary-General Li Xuewu's expression, because he knew that the other party could understand him.
Li Xuewu did understand, because it was he who proposed the idea of learning from NSU Ro 80 to conduct passenger car research.
It's normal for the noise in the venue of a seminar to be a little loud. Although Mr. Ding is an old comrade in the research institute, the young comrades do not "respect the elderly" at all in terms of technology and design thinking.
There were some young designers sitting in the room. After listening to what Mr. Ding said, someone quickly stood up to refute it.
Similarly, the researchers sitting at the conference table evaluated and refuted the young designers' ideas.
This is how it is in design. You cannot blindly worship technology or have the final say, as that will lead to major problems.
Li Xuewu paid attention to this point when he was working with the production and design departments at the beginning of the automotive industry project.
So the meeting was like a market, you speak and then I speak, I speak and he speaks, and everyone has his own opinion.
After completing his work of presenting some ideas, Xia Zhongquan organized people to collect opinions from all parties for comparison.
At the same time, he also needs to evaluate the opinions of all parties and make targeted inquiries to Wang Zhi, director of the Automotive Research Institute.
On the wall of the institute's conference room hangs a couplet written by Li Huaide at the request of Li Xuewu: "Seek truth from facts." It may be a bit ahead of its time, but it is definitely in line with the current scientific research environment.
Don't pay attention to this calligraphy. Li Xuewu has cheated Old Li so many times that Old Li has long since given in.
Because sometimes he didn't know how Li Xuewu tricked him, or there was no possibility of defense.
Just tell me, what's the problem with Li Xuewu coming to ask him to write this calligraphy?
Who could have imagined what could go wrong.
If you were Lao Li, what could you do to defend yourself against him?
Does it mean that you don't believe a single word Li Xuewu says, and won't do anything he asks you to do, and you are determined not to waver?
There is no solution, Lao Li is just enduring it.
Anyway, Li Xuewu had no intention of killing him, so he was still needed to hold this position.
It would not be in Li Xuewu's interest to replace anyone else.
So it doesn’t matter if the two of them didn’t reach an agreement in Tianjin. The worst that can happen is that they won’t carry out the relevant cooperation.
To say that they broke up was impossible. Li Huaide didn't even know how many mines Li Xuewu had set under his butt. If they broke up, he would have to go to heaven first.
Therefore, it is very impressive and influential for Li Xuewu to sit here and listen to the discussion.
If he said he was going to do something, especially if he was serious about it, Li Huaide would rather face opposition from others than do it.
It’s not that I doubt whether this approach will succeed, but I’m afraid that Li Xuewu will give up and all the previous things will be ruined.
But he also had confidence, because as long as Li Xuewu clearly asked for instructions and could do it, there would be no mistakes.
Other group leaders have also noticed this. Although it sounds mysterious, it is the fact.
The group management committee is also very complicated, and sometimes we have to look at the attitude of the secretary-general to do things.
Nothing goes wrong with anything Li Xuewu asks to do, but something Li Xuewu firmly opposes will definitely go wrong.
This is really unsolvable.
Do you dare to use your strength to ensure that nothing goes wrong with what Li Xuewu opposes?
Who dares to say that? Who has the execution ability to do this kind of work? If you are really obsessed with one thing, you don't care about other work.
Therefore, Li Xuewu asked the research institute to be realistic and not have any leader come here to talk nonsense and say they wanted to do other things.
Actually, when is it not good to seek truth from facts?
Shouldn't we seek truth from facts when doing our work?
The problem lies with the tune. The tune is set by the higher-ups, but there are always people below who want to mess it up.
Li Huaide's trust in Li Xuewu was like adding an insurance for the tune. He was certain that the tune Li Xuewu played must be correct.
After the development and research of jeeps, motorcycles and Gemini cars, the group held a meeting and decided to launch the car industry and start the research of cheap three-box cars.
If you ask, the Gemini sedan has already been developed, and a three-box sedan is just an extra butt, what's so difficult about that.
Hmm - there's a big difference here.
Strictly speaking, the Gemini sedan should be considered a mini jeep, as its chassis technology and power system are derived from the Antelope Jeep, but it cannot be seen from the appearance.
The Gemini is the result of reducing the configuration and adjusting the configuration of the Antelope Jeep into a hatchback.
Of course, some of the Gemini's technologies and features are different from those of the Antelope.
The three-box sedan being researched this time is even more different.
This is a research system built entirely from scratch based on the sedan platform, while defining a new sedan design language.
In other words, the future development of mid-size and luxury sedans by Red Star Factory will all start from this current project.
Gemini is worth learning from, but it is completely meaningless to imitate and transform.
The meeting lasted for more than three hours. Seeing that many old professors were arguing and exhausted, Li Xuewu quickly signaled to Xia Zhongquan to either start the meal or the banquet.
After a whole morning of discussion, we still haven't developed the car. Now that we have sent a few old professors away, it will be really lively.
Look at these old professors, their hair is all gray. They usually look aloof and unmoved by the hardships of the world, but when it comes to their professional fields, they dare to jump up and bang the table.
The elders of the Huashan Sect said that the Emei Sect was full of effeminate people, and the elders of the Wudang Sect said that the Shaolin Temple was full of bald monks. This is the effect.
Li Xuewu was not afraid of anything else but was afraid that if the quarrel continued, these excited old professors would go downstairs to fight.
It really has this attitude. There is no pointing fingers or cursing, but some brainless words attacking the other party have been made.
Xia Zhongquan originally wanted to continue watching the fun, but seeing this situation, he quickly waved to his secretary to serve tea and food.
This is the tone he set. If no result is reached in today's meeting, no one can leave.
He had already called the United Hospital and the ambulance was parked downstairs. Unless someone died, there was no way he could walk out of this meeting room standing.
This was the first time Li Xuewu heard of such a meeting. Xia Zhongquan told him that such meetings had been held more than a dozen times.
He was annoyed anyway and didn't want to continue. Endless discussions and research were meaningless.
So, Li Xuewu came today not only to listen to opinions and reports, but also to make the final decision.
It's really funny to say that Xia Zhongquan has been doing design work all his life, but in the end he couldn't even unify the opinions of his scientific researchers, and he actually asked a high school graduate to make the decision.
That’s right, Li Xuewu didn’t graduate from university, but he is just a high school graduate.
Before he met his mentor and friend Shangguan Qi, he was too embarrassed to tell others about his university diploma and felt insecure.
"While everyone is eating, I want to say a few words."
Xia Zhongquan really had no intention of treating these researchers unfairly, and the lunch boxes they served were all solid dishes.
Perhaps the discussion in the morning was too intense and everyone was very hungry. They had no time to argue and just swung their chopsticks around, unwilling to miss the last piece of braised pork.
Well, I just said that my idea was worth a million dollars, but now I think that the comrades around me ate one more piece of braised pork.
It seems ridiculous, but in fact it is different from the lecturer who shouted that his friend betrayed me, I raised my hand to give him one million, and then came down to fight with others because there was no goose leg in his lunch box.
Li Xuewu feels that these scientific researchers are lovely people. In such a poor living environment and in such a complex social environment, they are willing to shine in research.
With their talents, they can easily enjoy an enviable life by working abroad.
So Xia Zhongquan could treat this as a joke to them, but Li Xuewu took it seriously.
Seeing everyone enjoying the meal, he smiled and said, "Let me tell you a few happy things first, so that you can enjoy the meal together. It will be especially delicious."
"Hehehe——"
Hearing his joke, some young people started laughing out loud while holding their lunch boxes. The Secretary-General is always so humorous.
(Zhou Zechuan:???)
"The first good news." Li Xuewu listened to their laughter and said, "The special vehicle manufacturing plant continues to work hard and completed the production task this month and delivered 6 Hongtu buses."
"Well, Hongtu does have a future."
Professor Ding put down his chopsticks and took a sip of hot tea, nodded and said, "Last month I went to the special vehicle for research, and the technicians at the workstations really had skills, very good."
"I've learned it." Xia Zhongquan agreed with a smile, "The United School Vocational and Technical College has decided to cooperate with the special vehicle and place the vehicle engineering internship task in the special vehicle."
"Well, that's what should be done. It's very challenging."
Professor Ding picked up a peanut with chopsticks, put it in his mouth and chewed it, saying, "If you want to practice your skills, you have to do it by hand."
"It reminds me of the first time I touched a lathe."
"If I ask you to go back to the lathe now, you may not be as skilled as the youngsters."
Xia Zhongquan smiled and nodded at him, gesturing and saying, "In the Gangcheng machining factory, people now use high technology and have CNC lathes controlled by hand, so they don't need to do it manually."
“I’m glad to see that.”
Professor Ding raised his hand and nodded at him, saying seriously: "It used to take three, five, or ten years to train a worker, but now it only takes one or two years. This is a good thing."
"It is because of better processing equipment that this second happy event happened."
Li Xuewu waited for the conversation to start and quickly took over. Otherwise, if these people continued chatting, they would not be able to finish the second thing before dark.
"The head office of sales has reported that the Gemini compact sedan has opened up overseas sales channels and the response has been very good."
He nodded and smiled, saying: "Dealers have exported Gemini cars to Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, and the market performance is very good."
"Good news, the production line will be operating in three shifts."
Xia Zhongquan said with a smile: "This is a kind of happiness for us, and the same is true for the workers."
"Hearing these good news, I think it will be easier to discuss the sedan project next."
Li Xuewu continued: "I have always believed that the automobile industry will become the economic pillar of Red Star Steel Group."
"Similarly, I always believe that what the people need is the direction of our efforts. Building cars for the people will be the goal of our automotive research institute and the group."
He pointed at the conference table and emphasized: "Everyone present here also came here with this belief and worked hard and dedicated themselves to the common goal."
"Regarding whether to fully introduce the NSU Ro 80 sedan and what technologies to introduce, I will not make a judgment, because I am not a professional technician or designer."
Li Xuewu concluded: "I think you all understand that the positioning of this car in the design draft is correct."
“It is the cornerstone of our group’s automotive industry and the starting point for the development of sedans.”
“This starting point does not need to be too perfect or too advanced. As long as it gives us a direction to think about and a way of thinking about development, it is worth our experimentation and design.”
He glanced at Xia Zhongquan, then glanced at everyone present, and said, "If I were a designer, I would first clearly mark its location, then determine the size and required functions, and then think about what skills I have."
"I have thought about all these. I will think about what technologies I need, whether it will cause waste if I introduce technologies, and whether there are related technologies that I can make myself."
He placed a Gazelle car model in front of him, pointed to the relevant parts and said: "Before we couldn't make engines, we could only do maintenance and repair. Now we have our own engine manufacturing plant and have upgraded products."
“This car used to be a replica of Willys, but now we have given it a new design language.”
“These are all progress and changes.”
Li Xuewu pushed the model forward and said, "If I can bring back the entire NSU Ro 80, then wouldn't all your previous discussions and research be wasted?"
"Will the contents of your design drafts be invalidated?"
He looked at everyone and asked, "Who can tell me that they will not have a fixed mindset, will not copy the design ideas of this car, and will have their own design ideas in the future?"
"No way. Plagiarism will steal your most precious design talent and inspiration."
Li Xuewu spread his hands and said, "Yesterday, the General Management Department told me that the second 15,000-ton container ship ordered by Dongfeng Shipping from Yingcheng Shipbuilding has been delivered."
"You may have seen it in the factory newspaper. It's Dongfeng Jia-B. It's a very impressive name, right?"
He smiled and continued, "The designers at Yingcheng Shipyard didn't tell me where to import a ship for their reference and study."
"Hahaha--"
The atmosphere in the meeting place suddenly became much more relaxed. Everyone had eaten their fill, but had no interest in continuing to argue.
The seminar finally became what it was supposed to be.
At the meeting, after everyone's discussion, the prototype of this three-box sedan also took shape in Li Xuewu's notebook.
PS: I will leave for home tomorrow. My mother, my wife and my children will fly directly to Northeast China. I will go to Tianjin to get the car first and then drive back.
So I will update if I can write on the train from Suzhou to Tianjin tomorrow, and I won’t stop updating if I can’t.
However, I will definitely be very tired driving home the day after tomorrow, so I won’t write about it. After all, it will take more than 9 hours to drive home. I hope you can understand.
I'll update when I get home.
