Chapter 1324 Who to trick?
"Why are you still following me?"
Li Xuewu looked with some amusement at Yan Jiefang who was following behind him and was about to take him to the car.
Yan Jiefang looked at him helplessly, then looked at the freight station cadre who also came to see Li Xuewu off.
“Hehehe——” Li Xuewu chuckled and patted his shoulder, introducing him to Gao Juntong: “This is my little brother.”
"But I have to emphasize that I didn't ask him to act for you today. It was purely a coincidence."
I really believed it! Gao Juntong looked at Yan Jiefang, nodded, and said nothing.
He saw through Yan Jiefang's little thoughts at a glance. He was afraid that Li Xuewu would be angry if he didn't tell the truth, and now he was afraid of being retaliated against.
Of course Li Xuewu could also see it, so just explaining it to him was enough. If we went any further, it would be a slap in the face.
What’s the matter, Li Xuewu, you really don’t trust me and think that the cadres at our railway station will retaliate against you?
Don't look down on others. Even if you have ambitions, you won't target a cripple.
If the gossip really got out, not only would it be Gao Juntong who would be famous, but the entire Beijing Railway Station would become famous.
So Yan Jiefang couldn't see that his heart was already in turmoil.
Just because Li Xuewu had taken the initiative to greet him before, no one would target him.
It's hard to prevent a cold attitude, since he told the truth.
Everyone knows that charging money for doing things is wrong, and now that the case has been exposed, everyone is scared.
I am afraid of the consequences, but who is afraid of money biting their hand?
If you say you didn't accept it in the first place, they wouldn't feel bad about it, but now Deputy Station Master Gao obviously wants to get to the bottom of it.
Just tell me, do they have to give back everything they collected in the first place?
It's not like that when you inhale and spit out.
As the old saying goes, what goes in by evil means will go out by evil means.
This money was not earned in a good way, and it was not spent in a proper way, but they don't feel sorry for spending it no matter how they spend it.
But what they have to spit out is their own salary, which would be painful for anyone.
Many people accepted the money because they had to sell their connections and take it.
Now, favors are rare and wages have plummeted.
After such a long time, I'm afraid even they themselves can't remember how much money they collected and how much they spent.
If you really want to make up for it, you have to take out all your savings. I don’t know how many cadres’ savings are in the hands of women.
Forget it. When I tell you about this when I get home today, my whole family will be angry and we might even start fighting.
Given the situation, they didn't dare to resent Li Xuewu, let alone accuse Gao Juntong of not protecting his own people.
You, Yan Jiefang, make a living at the freight station. We can't deal with you, but can't we just look at you coldly?
"It's all fate." Li Xuewu stood by the car door and didn't rush to get in. He looked at Yan Jiefang and said with emotion: "If it weren't for this bitterness, there wouldn't be the sweetness today."
"I see you've changed to a bigger car." He asked, "How's your income now? Is it more than before?"
"Yes... it is a lot more than before."
Yan Jiefang still felt nervous, so his voice wasn't very loud when he answered.
Li Xuewu didn't care, nodded, and continued to ask: "Did you buy it in full or with a loan?"
"Full payment." Yan Jiefang was much more confident when he heard Li Xuewu asking about him. "I sold that car, and with the money I saved in the past few months, it's just enough to buy the car."
"Well, it's not easy." Li Xuewu's hands did not leave his shoulders, and he even patted them this time.
He looked at the truck drivers standing in the distance and watching and said, "We are all hard workers. Roll up your sleeves and work hard. Now that we have the first truck, we will soon have the second and third trucks."
"The bulk cargo drivers have indeed solved a big problem for the freight station." Gao Juntong also spoke at this time, his eyes swept over Yan Jiefang's lame leg, and he was quite moved in his heart, "We are very grateful to them."
"I also believe that the vast majority of the comrades at the cargo station are good comrades, and even if there are some unavoidable mistakes, they can be corrected."
Li Xuewu also expressed his opinion at this time. He looked at Gao Juntong and other freight station cadres and said, "We are all managers. We can't let our comrades sweat and feel disappointed."
"If there is one rule in this world that is correct, it is that you cannot bully honest people. What do you think?"
Without waiting for the cadres at the freight station to react, he let go of Yan Jiefang's shoulders, shook hands with Gao Juntong again, and got into the car.
As the political and cultural center of the country, the number of cars in Beijing was very high compared to the rest of the country at that time.
I think the only city that can be compared with Beijing is Shanghai.
But looking around the whole capital, it is not common to find cadres who can ride in Volga luxury cars. It just so happened that they saw one today.
Otherwise, why would Gao Juntong remind Lao Liang to be careful? Few people who can ride this car openly are easy to mess with.
Looking at Li Xuewu's behavior and speaking style, I wonder how many years it will take for the cadres behind him to learn just this set of movements before getting on the car.
Do you think Li Xuewu has been trained or studied martial arts specifically?
This temperament is given by his coveted status and the confidence accumulated from daily work. He is definitely a top star.
The fact that Gao Juntong accompanied Li Xuewu to conduct research and inspection was a bit of a reception, so he had to be polite and show a level of seniority.
But he didn't think this half level was a big deal, because he was already 45 years old. Ask Li Xuewu if he is 25 years old.
He stood there, watching the convoy leave, speechless for a long time, trying to do evil things in front of such a talented person.
An Antelope jeep, a Volga sedan, and a 9-seater commercial vehicle. What do you see from such a fleet?
Perhaps these cadres at the freight station are still thinking about their salaries, or what Li Xuewu just said.
The station officials who were with Gao Juntong may have noticed that the specifications of Li Xuewu's motorcade on this trip were of very high standards.
From the details, we can see the big picture. So the purpose of Li Xuewu's trip is just to deal with the problem of Stationmaster Liang, or the freight station?
Impossible, Gao Juntong frowned slightly, his heart was already in turmoil.
Li Xuewu carefully recalled every word he said here, reflected on it, and studied in detail what he wanted to do.
Indeed, the Beijing Freight Station has become the most popular and most profitable project among the tertiary industries of the railway station.
But this is for the Beijing Railway Station. As a cooperative unit, he is too aware of the scale of the tertiary industry of the Red Star Steel Group.
It is true that railways have more opportunities and capabilities to create tertiary industry projects, but it is really hard to find profitable projects.
Coincidentally, the tertiary industries of Red Star Factory are all making money. It is meaningless to compare the two sides in terms of size; what is important is to compare the scale of profits.
So from this point we can see that Beijing Railway Station may attach great importance to the freight station, but Red Star Steel Group may not.
It's even more uncertain about Li Xuewu.
How could the ruthless and capable people who were able to create the tertiary industry of the Red Star Factory care about such a small "profit"?
This made him even more confused. What was the purpose of Li Xuewu's trip? To scare the tiger by making a noise on the mountain, but where was the tiger?
Lao Liang is a wild cat at best.
Looking at the cooperative relationship between Beijing Railway Station and Red Star Factory, it is close and dynamic. It is impossible for Li Xuewu and Red Star Factory to do anything to destroy this cooperative relationship.
The only possible explanation is that he must be taking advantage of the situation.
Of course, he is using the freight station as an excuse to achieve some of his goals.
Then you may ask, will the problem of this freight station be investigated?
Of course we have to investigate, and we have to investigate thoroughly, to give Li Xuewu the opportunity to use the topic to his advantage, otherwise the topic he uses may turn out to be a big problem.
Li Xuewu doesn't care who he plots against or who he buries, but he cannot bring bad luck to his own home.
After figuring this out, Gao Juntong was about to turn around, but found that the bulk cargo driver named Yan Jiefang was still standing there.
This kid is a bit stunned——
"Your name is Yan Jiefang?"
He once again looked at Yan Jiefang carefully. When he saw him nod, he raised his chin slightly and thought for a moment before asking, "What is your relationship with Secretary-General Li?"
"Neighbor, the neighbor who lives across the street."
Yan Jiefang didn't know who was asking him the question, he only knew it was the leader of the station.
Although the answer now was not as stressful as facing Li Xuewu, it was not easy either.
Perhaps seeing his true nature, Gao Juntong nodded and was about to say, "Do your best..."
Before he finished speaking, Yan Jiefang, who was a little slow to react, added, "Before he became secretary-general, he was my wife's supervisor."
grass--
Gao Juntong raised his eyebrows. He knew that Li Xuewu's arrow could not have been shot randomly, but was really aimed at the freight station.
This actually confirmed his previous guesses, but from this perspective, Li Xuewu was asking for too much.
After going through so much trouble, who is he trying to trick?
Could it be Director Li from the Red Star Factory?
Yan Jiefang didn't know what he said wrong to cause such a big reaction from the station leader.
The cadres behind him were also at a loss, wondering what was wrong with Deputy Station Chief Gao, and their expressions were unpredictable.
If they were Gao Juntong, they would have started cursing and calling Li Xuewu a bastard by now.
He had done things like going around in circles to scheme against people before, but he had never done it on such a large scale, nor had he done it so cruelly.
Lao Liang has a lot of connections at the station. He is in charge of the freight station and has a proud temper. How can he be an ordinary person?
But Old Liang, who was considered capable but had little development potential and could be used with confidence in the eyes of the leaders, failed.
Not surprisingly, even if it is found that Lao Liang did not take any money and did not violate any regulations, he still has to bear the greatest responsibility.
He was about to land safely, but then he happened to encounter this incident.
If Lao Liang is not dealt with, those people below will be in trouble.
Some thunder can be withstand by big trees. Ask the grass under the big trees whether it can withstand it.
Even a blade of grass won't do.
How do you say that?
Life is unpredictable. Sometimes, you are doing well at work, but suddenly something goes wrong.
Do you think it is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster?
-
Who said Li Xuewu was plotting against Lao Li?
The two of them have a good relationship. As a result, as soon as Li Xuewu got off work on Saturday night, Lao Li called him to the guesthouse.
"Eat first, then drink, then touch."
Li Huaide put down his chopsticks with a smile, called Qin Huairu who was serving the dishes and said, "There are no outsiders here today, please sit down."
"Oh, please don't do that." Qin Huairu put down the braised carp in her hand and waved her hands repeatedly, saying, "Director Li, I don't have the qualifications..."
"Tsk—" Li Huaide didn't want to hear him finish his words, and glared at him, "I told you to sit down, so sit down."
He waved his hand, signaling Li Xuewu and others around him, and said, "We are all from the unit today, so we just want to have some fun."
"Then--then you drink first, I'll go to the kitchen to make some arrangements." Qin Huairu smiled and replied, "Don't worry, I will definitely protect you if you give me face, but Master Qian is not here today, I'm afraid--"
She didn't finish her words, and just a smile at the end made Li Huaide understand what she meant.
"Okay, okay, oops——"
Li Huaide narrowed his eyes slightly and raised his chin, indicating that Qin Huairu was okay, then he turned to look at Li Xuewu and said, "How is it?"
He looked at Wei Zaike and Xia Zhongquan on the other side and said with a smile: "I think there are smart people in this organization. Women are still as good as men."
"We are very surprised by what you said." Wei Zai continued with a smile, "How come she is as good as any man?"
"Look, there are some things you don't know."
Li Huaide glanced at him with amusement, and said to Li Xuewu: "Why don't you tell him? Don't enter the house and not recognize your family!"
"If I really don't recognize the door and recognize the wrong person, it will become a big joke, hahahaha——"
Li Huaide was still smiling, but Wei Zaike's eyes flickered and he turned to look at Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu glanced at Xia Zhongquan. The old tortoise was staring at the plate of fish and pulling it hard, as if he was competing with it, and he didn't seem to notice the situation on the table at all.
Can you believe he didn't hear it? Didn't he understand it?
Li Xuewu dared to bet with Lao Li's head. The old guy understood the situation better than anyone else, but he was afraid of getting into trouble.
Director Li's words today were full of hidden meanings.
"Since we are talking about Comrade Qin Huairu, I am just guessing." Li Xuewu smiled and explained to the others, "Director Li should be talking about the restaurants she is responsible for in the city."
"Hey——" Li Huaide pointed at him, looked at Wei Zaike and Xia Zhongquan and emphasized: "There must be an expert guiding you here."
He was already pointing at Li Xuewu and talking to him, so is there any need to guess who the master in his words was?
"I just thought of a name, I didn't do anything else." Li Xuewu smiled and shook his head, raised his glass to toast Li Huaide, and clinked glasses with the other two. "But the restaurant is really good, I'm surprised."
"You are surprised." Li Huaide glanced at him, drank the wine in his glass, snorted, and nodded: "It surprised me too."
"Western, eastern, southern, northern, and central Taiwan cuisine, seafood, Sichuan cuisine, really promoted the craftsmanship of our guesthouse."
He squatted down to look at his wine glass and said seriously, "At first I didn't expect that the effect of running a restaurant would be so good."
"Are they [Qinyuanchun], [Langtaosha] and [Yujiaao]?"
Xia Zhongquan, who had been pretending to be an old turtle, raised his head and responded: "I was also stunned when I first heard about it, but when I actually went there, I realized that it is the craftsmanship of our factory, hehe——"
"Didn't you look at the plaque above your head when you went in?"
Li Xuewu saw the waiter had filled the glass with wine, so he pointed it at Xia Zhongquan and said, "The name of the guesthouse is written on it."
"Hahaha, we're going to eat, who's looking at that?"
Xia Zhongquan is obviously lying with his eyes open. He was just lying. Don't you believe it?
The fact that Qin Huairu had set up several restaurants in the city under the name of a guesthouse was widely spread in the office. How could he, a gourmet who often entertained guests, not know about it?
Just kidding—
There are probably several reasons why this matter was not spread in the office. One of them is that this is the factory's business, so there is nothing to spread.
You may say that it is debatable for the guesthouse to set up stalls outside, but the people who set up the stalls are all from the guesthouse.
Furthermore, the new employees hired by the three restaurants were all from the factory’s labor service company, and many of them were children of employees.
Gossiping about the tertiary industry does not mean saying that you should not have any welfare benefits.
Second, the three restaurants run by the factory are large in scale, have a full range of food, and the food must be delicious.
But one thing is, can ordinary people afford the projects that come out of the tertiary industry?
If you want to use public funds and count it as a hospitality, that's nothing. No matter who can't afford it, the government can afford it too.
I only earn so little a month, why would I go to a restaurant and act like a sucker?
The quality of the hotel's guesthouse is the same as the factory's, but the price is affordable. It would be a joke if others told others that I was being taken advantage of.
So few people would say that Lao Li really started today's topic with this idea.
Xia Zhongquan is really a wonderful person. He doesn't say a word when he should pretend to be deaf and dumb, and he always pretends to be deaf and dumb when he should respond.
Li Xuewu gently pointed out his little thoughts, which was not at all shabby at the dinner table, but rather a little fun.
Everyone started today's drinking party with a smile.
It’s more accurate to call it a dinner party than a drinking party, because with Li Xuewu around, no one would take the initiative to arrange drinking.
Drink shit! Li Xuewu can get a whole table of people drunk by himself. It’s not like he has never done this before.
Old Li has decided to play mahjong in the evening. Otherwise, what do you think he meant by "touch" at the beginning? Touch the mahjong tiles.
Lao Li’s card skills are average, so it’s fun to drink a little and win thirty or fifty bucks from him.
He was really drunk and had a bad experience with Lao Li. If he had won, everyone at this table would have been dead.
People will laugh at them to death. They have even lost their dignity in order to curry favor with Director Li.
This statement still cannot be explained. How can I explain it? Saying that I am not as skilled as others means that I really lost based on my ability?
If that's the case, it would be better to say that he did it to curry favor with Director Li!
Lose the cards to Director Li?
They can't afford to lose this person.
So we ate and drank well, talked and laughed at the table.
Qin Huairu joined in the second half, so she must be mindful of her identity and not act arrogantly just because Director Li said so.
The leader might have intended to invite her to have a drink, comment on her recent work performance, and express his care and concern.
She understood this very well, so she tactfully arrived at the place where the leaders had eaten and drunk well and had almost finished their conversation.
At this time, she came in to toast and say nice things. Even if Director Li complained a few words, she still had something to say.
She just waited for several leaders in the room to take turns praising her achievements in the stalls she set up in the city before she finished the round of toasts.
The cups were less than two taels, and drinking four of them would only make half a pound, which was nothing for her who was a battler over wine.
Her face is slightly rosy, more like an attractive red apple, making people want to hug it and take a bite.
However, none of the four people present were willing to eat it.
Old Li doesn’t even know how many good sisters he has. Li Xuewu is even more lucky in love and has been very busy lately.
Looking at Xia Zhongquan again, he is a typical good guy. He becomes a good guy because he is old.
As for Wei Zaike, his reputation in the factory is average, and no one knows his reputation outside, but this old guy has a wide range of friends.
But these days, there are quite a few capable cadres who do that, and no one cares.
If you don't know what private relationships are like these days, just go and ask the village cadres about their character.
If even there are one or two village cadres, you will know what is going on.
What is there to say?
A chicken for three days, a sheep for five days, and pork intestines for every meal. A bridegroom every night, a new bride every day, standing at the entrance of the village, there is a mother-in-law in every village.
This is not what Li Xuewu said, this is what Mr. Ma said.
-
Li Xuewu and his friends are having dinner at the guesthouse. How do they pay for the meal?
Of course, it was Mr. Li who settled the bill. It was he who called a few people and of course, Director Li paid for the meal.
Of course, Old Li didn't care about the money. Like Li Xuewu, he left some money at the guesthouse.
No matter where the money came from, at least he set an example for other cadres. From him down, no one can spend the money.
This is all thanks to Li Xuewu who set a good example, and Qin Huairu's eloquence, so the guesthouse had no bad debts.
Go ask other companies why their guesthouses are failing.
When the Red Star Factory merged 16 surrounding enterprises, the guesthouses of each factory were the hardest hit areas, and every investigation revealed the exact cause.
As long as you get the IOU and follow the list and data on it to check further, no one can escape.
This also served as a reminder to the cadres of the Red Star Factory, so entertaining is entertaining, and eating is eating by yourself.
If there are really shameless people like that, it’s ok once or twice, but if it happens more than once, Qin Huairu will have to resort to some tricks.
Li Huaide and others come to the guesthouse frequently, so there are really no major problems.
As for profits, we have the grilled fish stall and the three restaurants now, so on paper the profits are actually pretty good.
When Qin Huairu sent them upstairs, she also reported that if the project was not approved this year, she would renovate the garden in front.
"The issue of project establishment——"
Old Li picked up the cup and took a long sip of hot tea to clear his mind. Then he signaled Li Xuewu and said, "The Secretary-General knows the specific situation. The factory cannot do any big projects this year."
"In fact, this point has been emphasized since the beginning of this year. On the one hand, it is financial need, and on the other hand, it is engineering control."
He patiently explained to Qin Huairu: "Deputy Director Jing has already issued a risk warning. The finances in the second half of the year will be tight."
"The project has also given clear opinions and suggestions. This year and next year, we will focus on completing the main projects of the three major industrial zones, and then consider other things in the next step."
"But it's already in the plan, so you don't have to worry."
He also comforted Qin Huairu, "At the end of next year, the factory area here will undergo a large-scale renovation and upgrading, and the guesthouse is also one of the key renovation projects."
"The land you are using now will be used as a water resource treatment center, and the blueprint for the new guesthouse building is already being drawn up."
"Right, Secretary General?"
At the end of the introduction, Li Huaide looked at Li Xuewu who was already sitting at the mahjong table and asked a question.
Li Xuewu nodded, looked over here and said, "It has actually been made, but the group was not very satisfied with the first few versions, so they are still in the process of revision. There is absolutely no problem with this one."
"Look, I told you it's okay."
Li Huaide smiled at Qin Huairu and said, "When we say that the finances are tight, it doesn't mean that there is no money for construction, but financial adjustments."
"You should understand that the projects launched in our factory in the past two years have been rushed, and some projects have even used up their budgets ahead of schedule."
"I understand, Director Li."
Qin Huairu smiled and nodded in response: "Although I don't understand finance, I know that the leader will not be wrong."
She was really good at talking. Wei Zaike and Xia Zhong both looked at her with admiration in their eyes.
"Our guesthouse completely obeys the leadership of the organization and follows its instructions in all actions."
Qin Huairu expressed her opinion while pouring water for the leaders, and added: "If there are really difficulties, we can hold on for a while longer."
"You guys can hold on, but the water resource treatment center can't." Li Huaide stood up with a smile and walked to the mahjong table. "Don't worry, when the main construction project of the group is completed, the construction force freed up will be huge."
“Even if the new guest house is eleven stories high and has three building complexes, it is still not enough for the engineering company to do the work.”
"Of course, I'm relieved."
Qin Huairu saw that her leader couldn't help but start talking nonsense, so she ended her topic. "With you in the group, we can rest assured that we are working on the front line."
"You..." Li Huaide nodded at her with a smile, and then said to Li Xuewu: "Wait until the drawings come out and publish them, so that everyone can understand the progress of our factory's work."
"In fact, it's not just the drawings of the reception hotel that need to be released." Li Xuewu finished arranging the mahjong tiles, looked at Li Huaide and said, "The General Management Department is organizing a survey to release more work content that does not involve confidentiality to the factory employees."
"In newspaper form?"
Li Huaide rolled the dice and drew the cards first, saying, "It's better to be cautious."
"Don't brag, it's not done."
"We can't use the United Industrial Newspaper, which is an open channel for internal work." Li Xuewu grabbed the cards and did not delay reporting work. "Notice boards, daily work reports, work briefings, etc. The details are still under discussion."
"Well, this is possible." Li Huaide pointed at the mahjong tiles in his hand and said, "If the work is open, trust will come naturally."
I don’t know if what he was talking about was the work that Li Xuewu had just reported, or the mahjong tiles in his hand.
Qin Huairu could clearly see that Director Li's face was delighted, it seemed that he had caught a good hand.
What’s the use of having good cards? Some people have a good hand but play it badly.
Of course, we are not talking about Director Li here. Director Li’s poor card skills have a bottom line, after all, he has studied and practiced hard for many years.
Unlike some people, who have no bottom line and no underwear.
-
"Why did you think of inviting me to dinner?"
At the end of September, Li Xuewu had just discussed with Wei Zaike the reversal of the education and medical fiscal budgets and the possibility of self-sufficiency.
Bu Qingfang knocked on the door and walked in.
She was also familiar with Wei Zaike, and didn't care that he was there at all, and directly invited Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu pointed at Wei Zaike with amusement and reminded her, "Aren't you polite?"
"He has no time to accept my invitation."
Bu Qingfang glanced at Wei Zaike and said, "Everyone knows that Director Wei is busy day and night, and he has become gastroptosis."
"She has a sharp tongue. Why did you want to invite her to the General Management Department? You are so foolish."
Wei Zaike said that Bu Qingfang had a harsh mouth, and his mouth was not much better.
It’s just that the three of them already have a tacit understanding, so they can joke around casually.
"Come on, it's rare for me to eat your food, I have to give you face."
Li Xuewu first agreed to Bu Qingfang's request, then looked at Wei Zaike and asked, "Do you have any social engagements tonight?"
"Yes, if she hadn't asked first, I would have invited you as well." Wei Zaike said this without knowing whether it was true or not, and raised his eyebrows and said, "She got there first, and I didn't dare to compete with her."
"You're just talking nonsense." Bu Qingfang glanced at him and said, "And when you invited people to dinner? Are those people outside so blind?"
"Look, this conversation is going nowhere."
After Wei Zaike finished talking about his affairs, he stood up and said goodbye. As he left, he teased Bu Qingfang, "You are not jealous of me, are you?"
"Go to hell—" Bu Qingfang also scolded with a smile: "When you have the surgery, I will definitely go to the hospital and embarrass you."
"I'm waiting." Wei Zaike said this and went out.
There were only two of them left in the office, and Li Xuewu asked again, "Why did you think of inviting me to dinner? Is there something wrong?"
"There is something, but it's not my business, it's Yi Honglei's. We'll talk about it later." Bu Qingfang didn't care too much about dinner in the evening. Instead, she was concerned about the work that Wei Zaike had just talked about.
"The budget indicators for the Education and Medical Administration Bureau this year are already sufficient. Deputy Director Jing emphasized this at the meeting."
She reminded Li Xuewu: "Don't listen to him complaining about being poor all the time. He thinks he is the God of Wealth and will grant any request you make."
"Isn't it the king in the wishing well who always answers wishes?" Li Xuewu raised his head and glanced at Bu Qingfang, and said with a smile: "Since when did the God of Wealth answer wishes so readily?"
"You are really capable of doing it..." Bu Qingfang was amused by him and grinned. She shook her head slightly and said, "He thinks he is the God of Wealth and you are a deity. He thinks that after passing you, it will be easier to pass Deputy Director Jing's test."
"Well, he really came to count the money."
Li Xuewu nodded and explained: "The shortage of education and medical funds this year is due to special circumstances. Equipment and resource procurement accounts for a large part. The group must understand and support this aspect."
"But I just told him that both education and medical care should achieve internal self-sufficiency as soon as possible."
"Self-financing? You really dare to think so."
Bu Qingfang said hesitantly, "Let's talk about the school first. With the investment in the past two years and the newly established subject projects, how can the school be self-sufficient just by relying on the tuition fees of basic education?"
"As for the construction of the medical system, the joint hospital's Beijing branch is the first step. The next step is to build the Gangcheng and Yingcheng branches."
She said firmly: "It is impossible to be completely self-sufficient, at least not realistic in the next few years."
“It’s unrealistic but we have to do it. This is the trend of the future.”
Li Xuewu tapped the desktop and explained to her: "Basic education and higher education cannot always be free."
"Regarding this, the above has already given the policy and basis for the experiment. However, the original intention of the group to establish the joint school was to cultivate outstanding industrial and management talents, and there are certain constraints."
He spread his hands on the table and said, "If we can ensure the excellence of our graduates, put more effort into some training programs, and organize school-factory cooperation projects, we will definitely be able to create profits."
"Laboratory project?" Bu Qingfang, who was familiar with this kind of work, frowned and asked, "Some technologies cannot be judged by value, and there is no way to transfer funds. How can we be sure that the joint school has achieved self-sufficiency?"
"There is still room for improvement in this area." Li Xuewu frankly admitted the shortcomings of this view, but still confirmed: "The Education and Medical Administration Bureau is already working on the system and plan."
"It seems that Director Li is very confident in these two projects."
Bu Qingfang looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "When I asked you to play mahjong that day, was this what we talked about?"
"Well, it's still a financial issue."
Li Xuewu let out a long sigh and explained, "Deputy Director Jing has already given a plan for this year's financial settlement. Director Li is considering how to maneuver around some projects that will be launched next year."
"If the education and medical projects can achieve self-sufficiency, I believe a lot of space can be freed up."
"Of course, I know it's difficult, and Director Li knows it too." He nodded and said, "But everything is difficult at the beginning. You have to do the work first before you know whether it is difficult or not."
"For example, medical investment will definitely decrease next year."
Li Xuewu said seriously: "The scale and direction of Gangcheng Hospital need to be adjusted, such as a sanatorium."
"The same goes for Yingcheng. Internal medicine and complex disease departments will be built in the Beijing campus, while the other two campuses will focus on surgery and emergency treatment."
He pointed his finger and said, "The relevant construction funds also need to be jointly raised by both places."
"In addition, the opening of the Beijing branch of the United Hospital and the implementation of policies such as medical insurance will also provide some funding sources."
"Have you ever thought about forming a joint venture?" Bu Qingfang raised her eyebrows and said with some amusement, "Even the electronics and automobile industries can form joint ventures and sell shares, so why can't hospitals do the same?"
“Hospitals can, and they are very capable.”
Li Xuewu sighed, looked at the pen on the table and said, "It's just that the timing is not yet ripe."
"Are they worried that the valuation is too low? Or -" Bu Qingfang boldly guessed: "Are they worried that something might go wrong internally?"
"We still have to try it out." Li Xuewu did not directly answer her question, but emphasized: "At least that's the case for now."
"It is possible for the medical sector to achieve self-sufficiency at this time."
Bu Qingfang is also thinking about this issue. "It is actually more cost-effective for the joint enterprises to give up investment in medical construction and pool more resources into the joint hospital."
"If you think this way, what else do you want others to think?"
Li Xuewu smiled and stopped talking about this topic. He glanced at his watch and said, "I'll be busy for a while. We can talk after get off work."
"I'm not bothering you, am I?"
Before leaving, Bu Qingfang asked again, "I heard that you go back to your mother's house every day to pick up your son?"
"Not anymore, we have hired a nanny."
Li Xuewu smiled and explained: "The younger one is with the nanny during the day, and the older one is in the kindergarten during the day, so I don't have to worry about it."
"Okay, you can have the third one."
Bu Qingfang made a joke and went out, as she also had work to do.
In fact, she had already made it clear to Li Xuewu the purpose of her dinner party in the evening. It was not her business, but Yi Honglei's.
Who is Yi Honglei?
He was the former deputy section chief of the Propaganda Section 1 and was later transferred to the radio station as station director. Bu Qingfang was his former supervisor.
Of course, now that Bu Qingfang has arrived at the Comprehensive Management Department, as deputy secretary-general, he has to cooperate with Li Xuewu to contact the publishing house.
In other words, she is still Yi Honglei's supervisor.
Li Xuewu couldn't guess what Yi Honglei was up to, but he could not be prepared for the thing under his butt.
In the entire group, no one had ever recommended themselves to him, let alone tried to gain connections.
Yi Honglei's roundabout way of building relationships is actually more like a job interview with a guarantor.
If he wants to win Li Xuewu's support, he must demonstrate sufficient ability and strength.
But Li Xuewu might not be willing to watch his performance, so there needs to be a guarantor who has the face to invite Li Xuewu.
The entire group knows how difficult it is to invite Secretary-General Li Xuewu. Apart from Director Li, no one else can invite him.
Li Xuewu was really polite. He also used the ridiculous excuse of going home to pick up his children to get away.
You say he is pretending, he really needs to go back to his parents' house to pick up his children, but this kind of excuse seems a bit funny and helpless when used among people in their thirties and forties.
Most of the guests who come to treat us have children in junior high school and they would never think that they still need to be picked up.
The reason why Li Xuewu could calmly accept Bu Qingfang's invitation was not to give face to Yi Honglei, but to Bu Qingfang.
After all, she was going to work in the General Management Department and needed to build up her prestige and personal connections.
It used to be that, but now she is the deputy secretary-general, transferred from the Propaganda Department, and is no longer a direct leader.
Supervisors and direct supervisors are not the same thing. Even their working forms and methods are different, so they cannot be confused.
Whether Yi Honglei makes progress or stays the same, it will be helpful to her.
Li Xuewu also wanted to let the people below know that he trusts Bu Qingfang this time.
In fact, this is how all government agencies do things. Otherwise, leaders won’t have to do anything else as they will have to treat people to dinner every day.
After get off work, Li Xuewu walked a step slower. When he took a car to the hotel, Bu Qingfang and the others had already arrived ahead of him.
But walking slowly did bring some gains.
Right at the entrance of Qinyuanchun, Li Xuewu saw several cars from the factory.
Nie Xiaoguang was really smart and had good eyesight. When he saw the cars in front, he deliberately slowed down the car to give Brother Li some room to relax.
In fact, Li Xuewu didn't need to ease up. Zhou Zechuan, the disciplinary inspector, and Zheng Xudong, the vice president of the food company, accompanied Cheng Kaiyuan out of the car and went straight to the hotel lobby. They didn't notice the car coming from behind at all.
The restaurant is really well managed. After Li Xuewu got out of the car, he glanced at the parking lot and it really felt like parking spaces were tight in the future.
Parking spaces are tight, and so are the group's spaces.
