Chapter 1184 Disappointed Lou Yu
"what happened?"
Zhang Songying heard the report from the front desk and hurried down from the office.
Seeing some people standing at the door of the lounge, he ran over.
A security guard and a waiter were listening to what Li Xuewu's secretary Peng Xiaoli was saying.
"Vice President Zhang——"
The security guard and the waiter were the first to see her and greet her.
She nodded, but her eyes looked at Peng Xiaoli and the door of the lounge which was ajar.
"Deputy Director Li is here?"
"Please wait a moment," Peng Xiaoli did not answer her question directly, not out of arrogance, but to save time.
He knocked on the door gently, paused for three seconds, then pushed the door open and reported softly, "Vice President Zhang from the International Hotel is here."
"Please ask her to come in—"
Li Xuewu's voice came from the room, and at Peng Xiaoli's signal, Zhang Songying walked into the lounge.
The situation was not very complicated. There were only Li Xuewu and Chantal, the president of Santaya Group, in the room.
Although President Chantal looked like she had just cried, her emotions had stabilized relatively.
"Leader, President Chantal——"
Zhang Songying took a quick look around the room to ascertain the situation inside, and took the initiative to greet the two of them.
When she came down, she already understood some of the situation.
Coming in now is also to prevent some situations from happening.
For example, Chantal is a foreigner, and a beautiful foreign woman.
The pear blossoms were wet with rain and she was crying, and it was hard to tell what was coming out.
"Boss Han is in a meeting upstairs. Do you want me to invite her down?"
"Is Comrade Gancheng here?"
Li Xuewu sat on a single sofa with his arms resting on the armrests and his right leg folded over his left leg, looking very relaxed.
He looked at Zhang Songying and blinked slightly, with some signals in his eyes, which were very clear in line with his question.
Zhang Songying certainly had a tacit understanding with him in this regard. As soon as she came in, she was waiting for Li Xuewu's arrangements.
When he asked, she immediately replied, "Vice President Zhou went back to the Foreign Affairs Embassy. He said he had work to do."
"When he left, he told me to contact him if I had any questions."
She glanced at Chantal and asked, "Boss, can I call Vice President Zhou and ask him to come back?"
"By the time he comes back, the daylilies will be cold—"
Li Xuewu pretended to be dissatisfied and said, "On weekdays, he always hangs around here and takes his time, but when we need him, he disappears."
"Really——"
He patted the armrest of the sofa gently, pointed in Chantal's direction and introduced: "Ms. Chantal is very worried about the situation at the Foreign Affairs Embassy."
"This……"
Zhang Songying was not sure whether Chantal could speak Chinese or understand it.
Since Li Xuewu said these words with a defensive tone, she naturally had to cooperate.
"I'll call him right now, but..."
Halfway through her words, she hesitated and reminded, "I heard that the impact is very wide. I'm not sure if the call can be connected."
"Moreover, from what Vice President Zhou said when he left, it seems that their company is also in a passive position. At this moment..."
She stopped talking halfway through. There were some things she couldn't say, some things she didn't dare say, and some things she deliberately didn't say.
But when she introduced some of the situations in the foreign affairs embassy, Chantal's mood change was clearly felt.
Sure enough, this French woman can understand Chinese.
Even if you can't speak or hear everything, you can still understand some of the meaning by listening to Zhang Songying's expressions and emotions.
"Ugh--"
Li Xuewu glanced at Zhang Songying and gave her an approving look, but he sighed and said, "How could things develop to this point?"
-
"Oh! This is really wrong. It's really wrong—"
He said this and explained to Chantal in French what they had just said. He then said, "Some young people are too hot-blooded and have no sense of the overall situation or foreign affairs."
"This is more than just a misunderstanding—"
Chantal choked up and said to Li Xuewu in a hoarse voice: "I am worried about the current foreign affairs environment in the mainland."
"After this incident, we need to re-evaluate the business environment in the mainland," she pursed her lips and said, "I no longer have the necessary confidence in cooperation here."
"If you have decided to postpone or even cancel the cooperation," Li Xuewu let out a long sigh and said, "I can only express my regret for this."
"I personally regret and apologize for the difficult situation you and your family have experienced today."
He nodded slowly, paused, and then continued: "Let's not discuss whether what happened outside is right or wrong for now."
"Just talking about our positions."
Li Xuewu used his hands to indicate himself and the other person, and said, "There is a Chinese proverb used to describe the relationship between people, called the four irons."
"We were classmates, we carried guns together, we shared the loot together, we did this and that together..."
"What, what?"
Chantal, who was listening to him attentively, was stunned and asked, "What does that mean?"
"..."
Zhang Songying pursed her lips tightly to prevent herself from laughing out loud.
This idiom derived by the leader is really not suitable for use in such foreign affairs exchanges.
"That's what you French people love to do most--"
Li Xuewu smiled meaningfully and continued, "I think there is a good side to what happened today."
"Like you and me..."
"What do we do together?"
Chantal didn't fully understand what Li Xuewu meant, so after hearing what he said, she just asked.
"Cough-cough-"
Zhang Songying couldn't help it and coughed twice to hide his smile.
Seeing Li Xuewu looking over, she gestured to the door and said softly, "Well, leader, I'll go make a phone call now."
"Uh-huh--"
Li Xuewu nodded. He no longer needed assists.
Based on the analysis of the situation just now, I believe that I can definitely take down this French woman by myself.
After Zhang Songying left, he corrected her, "I just wanted to use the relationship between the four irons to prove the relationship between us."
"How can we prove our friendship if we don't go through hardships together?"
At this point, he raised his hand meaningfully and said apologetically, "Of course, I didn't mean to reflect your husband, Mr. Adrian."
Well, these words made Chantal stunned. If Li Xuewu hadn't reminded her, she might not have thought about it in this direction.
"Our Chinese understanding of friendship and affection is to share weal and woe and help each other."
Li Xuewu pointed his finger at his palm and said, "I am lucky today that I can protect your safety."
"I also cherish the hard-earned friendship between us."
He said sincerely: "As a friend, I have the responsibility and obligation to protect the safety of you and your business in the mainland."
"This is the respect and attitude that my unit and I have for you and this friendship."
"Of course I believe you—"
Chantal wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief in her hand, and let out a long sigh to relieve her inner anxiety.
When she saw the white flowers on the handkerchief, she remembered that he had handed it to her when she came in just now.
When I think of this, I can't help but recall the moment when the other person held me in his arms and protected me as we walked into the building.
In her memory and in her impression, Li Xuewu always has the demeanor of a mature man and the character of a gentleman who protects the weak.
With these memories and impressions, and thinking about what he had just said, the thoughts in his heart caused by fear began to hesitate again.
-
Just as the other party said, the moment I was in danger, he extended a helping hand to me without hesitation.
This is exactly what friendship and affection are all about.
If she stopped cooperating with the other party at this time, wouldn't that be repaying kindness with enmity?
It was obvious that the problems at the Foreign Affairs Embassy had nothing to do with Li Xuewu in front of him.
Moreover, she had already made preparations in this regard when she entered into investment cooperation in the mainland.
When she returned to France to meet with the old-timers on the board of directors, she used her courage and determination to lead by example to persuade them to attach importance to this cooperation.
There are still no answers to the questions caused by the chaos, but her safety should be guaranteed for now.
"Li, just now at the gate," Chantal looked at Li Xuewu seriously and asked, "Is this the reason you asked me that question?"
At the gate, Li Xuewu asked a question in response to her request for help: what were the identities and purposes of her and the three cars coming in to hide?
Just now, Li Xuewu had told her in a clear attitude that he would provide her and Santaya with shelter and security protection.
Then, on the other hand, Li Xuewu should adopt a dialectical attitude towards the three Mercedes-Benz cars with foreign affairs license plates and the people in them.
"I can use practical actions to prove my and my unit's attitude towards friendship and friendly businesses."
Li Xuewu looked at her and said very seriously: "But my unit and I must also conduct business under the leadership of the organization and within the policies and framework of foreign affairs services."
He pointed at Chantal and said bluntly: "You and I are friends, and Santaya and Red Star Factory are partners."
"but--"
Li Xuewu shook his head slightly and said, "Those three cars and the people in them, if they want to come in, it's business and work."
"I cherish our cooperation very much," he emphasized again, "and I hope you will not give up because of choking."
"I believe the organization will give an explanation for this matter and will have a clear attitude towards foreign affairs."
He said frankly: "After this incident is over, maybe the foreign affairs environment will get better..."
Chantal understood everything he said.
The emotional fluctuations in her heart have calmed down, and powerful thinking ability has gradually taken over her brain.
But no matter what you say now, the opportunity to use this incident to gain something has been lost.
It must be said that Li Xuewu just sitting here with her and comforting her had made her forget about what she was seeking with her aggressive attitude.
Moreover, his stable attitude and reasonable analysis also gave her a more comprehensive understanding of the matter.
Why did her husband leave decisively?
I'm afraid her wise and calm husband has the same idea as the young man in front of her.
Or it can be said that both men possess absolute insight and vision.
There is no problem for the International Hotel to accommodate these reporters and ordinary foreign affairs personnel, and it will not cause too many misunderstandings.
But his car and the fact that the couple entered the International Hotel were enough to represent some attitude.
When Li Xuewu was faced with this choice, it was polite and necessary for him to give a reminder.
Once the three cars enter this door, Li Xuewu will do his best to protect them.
But equally, her nature here has changed.
When Li Xuewu faced her, she was no longer the president of Santaya Group, a friendly business partner of Red Star Factory, but the wife of the French foreign affairs counselor.
By that time, it would be easy for her husband to get in, but difficult for him to get out.
The Red Star Factory and the International Hotel will not force them to do anything, but the French Embassy will definitely have a different attitude.
As the problem becomes more complex and escalates, what international hotels provide is not just ordinary protection, but shelter.
These are two completely different concepts.
So, Chantal did not regret it when she realized that she had lost an opportunity to threaten the Red Star Factory.
On the contrary, she was glad she didn't.
Because Li Xuewu also gave up an opportunity to trick himself and his wife and blackmail the Foreign Affairs Embassy.
She doesn't have to guess or judge what is more important or whether the weight is equal.
As Li Xuewu said, she should consider the feelings and friendship between both parties more.
-
"Sorry, I'm a little late."
Zhou Gancheng came in hurriedly from outside and nodded awkwardly at the two people who were eating in the lounge.
Li Xuewu did not blame him too much. He nodded to Peng Xiaoli who was standing at the door, and motioned for him to come in and sit down.
Zhou Gancheng looked at Chantal's expression and chose to sit down opposite Li Xuewu.
"You haven't eaten yet?"
Li Xuewu wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, smiled slightly, looked at Zhou Gancheng and said, "I ordered lunch for you."
Without asking for a waiter, he picked up the red wine on the table and poured half a glass into the glass opposite.
"I know you're busy, but now that things have come to this, even if the sky falls, you still have to have a full meal, right?"
After pouring the wine, he turned his wrist slightly and adjusted the angle of the bottle and placed it on the table.
Chantal noticed this, and the look she gave Li Xuewu was full of inquiry and surprise.
It is said that this man has never been abroad and is a native of Beijing.
So how does he possess such good psychological qualities and social skills?
It can't be that this ancient country specially cultivated it, right?
If that were the case, it would not be used in the factory, but on her.
“French food is more authentic when paired with foreign wine.”
Li Xuewu raised his hand and signaled Zhou Gancheng to help himself, saying, "The dishes may not be very authentic because of the ingredients and the chef, but this wine is absolutely authentic."
"Diamond flavored champagne?"
Zhou Gancheng looked at the wine bottle in confusion. The bottle was a foreign wine bottle, but why was there no label?
"You said this foreign liquor is authentic?"
He picked up the wine glass and sniffed it, then raised his eyebrows and said, "Although I have few opportunities to go abroad, you should not even deceive your own people."
"How can it not be authentic!"
Li Xuewu pretended to be dissatisfied and said emphatically, "This is brewed by our own winery. How can it not be authentic?"
"laugh--"
Even Chantal, who should have been worried, couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She drank for a long time and didn't feel anything was wrong, but now she realized that there was no label on the bottle.
Zhou Gancheng almost spit out the champagne in his mouth and quickly covered it with his hands.
“You brew it yourself?”
"Why? Not tasty?"
Li Xuewu looked him over and said, "You haven't had a champagne bar before?"
"Don't be so shabby—"
Zhou Gancheng picked up the wine glass again and tasted it. Only then did he relax his frown and asked in surprise, "Is it really brewed by your factory?"
"Have you heard of Lai Mao's technique?"
Li Xuewu chuckled and asked, "What do you think? If we put a foreign winery's label on it, can it be mistaken for the real thing?"
"Are you... kidding me?"
Zhou Gancheng was fine, but Chantal was stunned and looked at Li Xuewu suspiciously.
Li Xuewu leaned back in his chair, spread his hands and said, "Don't look at me like that. This is not something to be ashamed of."
"Well, the taste is comparable to that of some wineries—"
Zhou Gancheng tasted it carefully, nodded and said, "It tastes very mellow and has a long aftertaste."
"What do you think?"
Li Xuewu smiled and looked at Chantal, and asked, "We just drank, and I don't think you mind."
"No, I think it tastes good."
Chantal looked into Li Xuewu's eyes and said, "I am actually very interested in what you just said."
"Label production? Haha——"
Li Xuewu knew that the other party was a crocodile, and female crocodiles were more ferocious.
Whenever business is mentioned, the other party will stare at you like a giant crocodile that smells meat and won't let go.
Even though this kind of business is not suitable for her, it does not stop her from being interested in it.
In fact, whether you are doing business or studying, it’s all the same.
You have to be passionate about it and focus on it at all times to do it well and for a long time.
What does it mean to treat business as business? It means to always consider issues with a professional mindset and maintain a professional level of thinking.
"You may think that OEM is inappropriate," Li Xuewu said with a smile, "Then let's go to France and buy a winery."
“It doesn’t matter how run-down it is, even if the vines in the winery are dead and the winemaking equipment is destroyed, as long as it really exists and has a winemaking license.”
He looked at Chantal and asked, "Would you visit a winery for a bottle of wine?"
"It doesn't matter if you go there. We can say that these wines are aged and have the taste of history."
"You are truly a...business genius!"
Chantal stared into Li Xuewu's eyes and said, "No one would visit a winery for a bottle of wine unless he is crazy or has other purposes."
"As long as you don't plan to sell this bottle of wine for a sky-high price."
"How much do you think the taste of this bottle of wine is worth?"
Li Xuewu turned the wine bottle on the table with amusement, looked at Chantal with amusement and said, "We have excellent grape-growing areas in the border areas and advanced winemaking technology in the capital."
“We can produce a million bottles of this kind of sparkling wine a year.”
"You are really market butchers—"
Chantal shook her head slightly and said with emotion: "Any product will become cheaper as long as you participate in its production."
“So, we won’t disrupt the market easily.”
Li Xuewu sat up straight, looked at Chantal and said seriously, "It should be in the window, not in the cheap section."
"If it can be sold for $10, we definitely don't want it to become a cheap product worth nothing."
"You have the ability—"
Chantal's words were apparently affirmative, but in reality they were doubtful and also a test.
Just like her evaluation of domestic production capacity just now, market butcher.
If any technology is cracked, it will be a disaster for foreign manufacturers.
There are only a few wineries in France. The soil, moisture, climate and geographical location of each winery are different, which limits the production of foreign wines.
But here, the land is vast and the resources are abundant, so there are not many areas suitable for growing grapes.
Even French grape varieties can find suitable latitudes and climate areas here.
Moreover, Chantal couldn't imagine what kind of impact it would have on the market when a winery with an ancient history of winemaking sprayed excellent-tasting foreign liquors to the world with its long history.
Authentic OEM sales, just like what Li Xuewu just said, no one will go looking for grape vines for a bottle of wine.
There are many wineries in France that are on the verge of bankruptcy, and their former glory will be packaged as labels on wine bottles by evil business geniuses.
From then on it continued to remain dilapidated and desolate, but its fame would spread throughout the world.
The annual production of wine exceeds the output of all the wineries in France.
Use the reputation of ancient wineries to maintain prices and use new origins and new technologies to increase production capacity.
Putting new wine in old bottles, do you dare to say that this business behavior is not horrible?
Also, do you really think Li Xuewu is talking about the wine business?
This is clearly a threat and intimidation to Chantal.
If you dare to withdraw our cooperation in the mainland, we will dare to put our own brand name on "Champagne" and sell it all over the world.
-
"Sorry, Mr. Adrian is still busy."
Amandine, the economic attaché of the French Embassy, walked up to Chantal and after glancing at Li Xuewu and the others, she explained softly, "He arranged for me to pick you up."
"Thank you for your hospitality—"
Chantal nodded and did not embarrass her husband's mistress.
There is an old Chinese saying that family disgrace should not be made public.
Although France did not say this, this makes sense.
She smiled and said to Li Xuewu: "Today is the day I gained the most since I came to China. Thank you."
"You're welcome. This is friendship, isn't it?"
Li Xuewu smiled and nodded, saying, "The door of the International Hotel is always open to friends."
"On behalf of Red Star Factory, I would also like to welcome you and look forward to meeting you next time."
“I believe the next time won’t be too far away.”
Chantal got into the car gracefully and did not make a fuss about her husband's abandonment and ruthlessness.
Nor did she express indignation because the other party arranged for Amandine to pick her up.
She is now the president of the Santaya Group, not the wife of the counselor of the French Foreign Affairs Embassy.
She had just finished lunch and looked very energetic. Except for a few red eyes, she was emotionally stable.
Zhou Gancheng's arrival did not bring any more news to the two.
Although Li Xuewu was sitting in the lounge with Chantal, news from the outside world would continue to inform him.
This is the basis of his self-confidence and also the greatest confidence in keeping Chantal stable.
What Zhou Gancheng knew, Li Xuewu also knew, so neither of them at the table expressed excessive surprise at what he said.
It wasn't until he mentioned that someone from the French Embassy would come to pick her up in a while that her expression changed.
Li Xuewu did not say anything at that time. The romance between the two during the chaos in the morning had long been suppressed in their hearts.
That is not worth mentioning, let alone reminiscing about or thinking about at this moment.
She is still she, and he is still him.
So, when the car from the French Embassy came, she happily said goodbye to Li Xuewu.
Watching the car leave, Zhou Gancheng, who was standing aside, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Is what you just said true?"
"What really?"
Li Xuewu turned around and looked at him, looking very confused.
Zhou Gancheng was anxious and reminded him, "Champagne, that bottle of wine, can your factory really produce a million bottles a year?"
"Of course, it's only one million bottles, there's nothing to be surprised about."
Li Xuewu turned around and motioned for them to walk back together, saying, "We will dominate the global foreign liquor market and make sure that foreign liquors of good vintages will never run out. But we still have to wait a few more years..."
"why?"
Zhou Gancheng was anxious. He looked at Li Xuewu and said, "Haven't you already made champagne?"
"I'm telling you, that bottle of wine!"
He said seriously: "No matter the taste or alcohol content, it is absolutely authentic and is no worse than foreign liquor!"
“Haha ...
Li Xuewu looked at his serious expression and couldn't help but chuckle.
This made Zhou Gancheng laugh so hard that he looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "What are you laughing at? I'm telling you something serious."
"How can it not be authentic? It has to be authentic!"
Li Xuewu said with a smile as he walked: "That's imported foreign wine, it's just that the label has been torn off."
"What--"
Zhou Gancheng was almost hurt by the sudden excitement.
He never expected that Li Xuewu would do this.
“Red Star does have its own brewery, but it is currently specialising in baijiu, namely Red Star Moutai.”
Li Xuewu walked into the lounge and explained, “We will do foreign liquor in the future, but not now.”
"Like I just said, we have to buy a winery, import grape seedlings, and plant and cultivate them..."
He spread his hands and said, "Don't even think about it within five or six years. It would be great if we can make fine wine within ten years."
"Of course, if you're talking about that kind of crappy foreign liquor, we still have absolute strength."
"…You really even lied to your own people!"
Zhou Gancheng looked at Li Xuewu who was sitting on the sofa, as if to say, "You're deceiving me."
"What you are saying now is true?"
"What's real or fake?"
Li Xuewu looked at him with amusement and said, "We are only responsible for production, Wufenghang and other distributors will be responsible for sales."
"We have the trademark of Red Star Moutai. The imitation rubbish has no trademark at all. We use whichever brand sells best."
"..."
Zhou Gancheng didn't say anything for a long time after hearing what he said. Finally, he couldn't help but asked, "Can you still do this?"
“We are also helpless.”
Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders and said, "It was Wufenghang that asked us to do this. After all, they control our export channels."
"Yeah, I understand—"
Zhou Gancheng nodded habitually, thinking in his heart about this behavior of cooperating with production out of helplessness.
But after thinking for a while, he saw Li Xuewu packing up and getting up to leave, then he realized something was wrong.
He stood up and asked, "This idea was yours, right?"
"Hey! Don't wrongly accuse a good person!"
Li Xuewu stood at the door, pointed at him seriously, and emphasized: "Why don't you go to the Forty-Nine City to ask around? I, Li Xuewu, am a very upright person. How could I possibly come up with such an idea?"
"I don't believe you—"
Seeing the other party leave, Zhou Gancheng curled his lips, thinking that he almost fell into that kid's trap again.
It's really hard to guard against. He cheated foreigners, and he cheated his own people. Is there anything true about what he said?
"I heard you saw a good show?"
After work on Saturday, Li Xuewu just walked out of the security building when he saw Bu Qingfang coming towards him.
"Is this waiting for me?"
Li Xuewu looked at her with a smile and said jokingly, "What's the matter? Do you want to date me?"
"Okay, I'm fine."
Bu Qingfang didn't care about the people around him getting off work, and said with a laugh: "Find a young man, anyway, I won't suffer any loss."
"Be careful, your old Zheng will hit you——"
Gou Zirong, who was passing by, made a joke, which made everyone laugh even louder.
"Okay, if we have a fight when I get home, I'll know it was you who snitched—"
Bu Qingfang comes from the propaganda department. When it comes to talking, how could he be afraid of Gou Zirong, who works in sales?
It's very lively after get off work, she said, and motioned Li Xuewu to stand aside.
"What's wrong? Do you want to talk to me about something?"
Li Xuewu asked with a smile: "You're not just asking about yesterday's excitement, are you?"
He waved his hand and said, "I'm not like what people say. I just happened to be there and I don't know anything."
"Come on, I don't know yours yet?"
Bu Qingfang curled her lips, then said seriously: "You were not here yesterday, and this agency yard was bustling."
"Oh--"
Li Xuewu smiled knowingly and said, "So you reminded me just to watch this excitement?"
"Be careful, everyone is waiting to see the fun."
Bu Qingfang glanced in the direction of the main office building and reminded him in a much lower voice, "Old Ding's attitude is very vague."
"Really--"
Li Xuewu still had that smile on his face, but his eyes were much sharper.
He nodded and said, "It's okay. He wants to climb the ladder to the house. If you stop him, we'll become enemies."
"Whether they make noise or dance, just let them do what they want. It won't be lively if they don't make noise or dance—"
"Well, it seems that you have a plan in mind."
Bu Qingfang nodded and said, "Deputy Director Gu asked me to ask you. She still cares about you very much."
"You also know, at this time."
"Well, I understand what the leader means."
Li Xuewu nodded in understanding and said, "Tell the leader what needs to be done. I will take care of this matter."
"That's fine. I know what you do," Bu Qingfang pursed her lips and said, "If you don't remove the roots, they will grow again in the spring breeze."
"Not really. I have it in my mind."
Li Xuewu really laughed this time. He looked at Bu Qingfang and said, "There's no need to be so nervous. Do you really think they are important people?"
“That’s not what the leaders are worried about.”
Bu Qingfang's expression became more serious. He looked at him and said, "There is news that the higher-ups are going to adjust and strengthen the Red Star Factory's team."
"We don't know who is coming, and we don't know if anyone will be transferred. This is still an extraordinary period..."
She frowned slightly and reminded him, "A small move can affect the whole body, and a little impatience can ruin a big plan."
"How, when and how much to move, please be careful, leader. She will fully cooperate with you."
"I understand. Thank you for your trust, leader."
Li Xuewu nodded slowly and said, "The wind above is not urgent for the time being. It is the end of August now, and October should be around the same."
"Promotion is already a foregone conclusion. It's impossible by the end of the year, it should be at the beginning of the year, so..."
He glanced around and said, "It's not me who's in trouble, it's the situation and the other party."
"You can move today, but tomorrow the situation may change and it may not be appropriate to move, so let's wait a little longer."
"That's what the leader means, as long as you understand it."
Bu Qingfang smiled slightly and asked, "Is there anything I can help you with? If you have anything, please let me know."
"Do not worry--"
Li Xuewu smiled and said, "I have approved the plan to expand the publicity team, and I have visited several theaters in the city."
"I will not be in charge of the following matters. You take over."
"Okay, no problem—"
Bu Qingfang said simply: "It is because of your organization and coordination that the Management Committee has achieved what it has today."
"Stop praising me like that. What will I do if I get too proud?"
Li Xuewu pointed to the car and said as he walked: "I talked to Gou Zirong today and handed over the contact work with the supply and marketing company to him."
“At the same time, all the follow-up work of the distribution outlets was transferred to the sales department.”
“No wonder—”
Bu Qingfang pulled the corner of his mouth, looked in the direction of the door and said: "I thought he was usually quite a tough guy, why is he joking with me today? I guess he was attracted by your fragrance."
"I can't follow your little words."
Li Xuewu stood beside the car and said to her with a smile: "We were under safety control for most of the day yesterday, and the whole factory's attention was attracted to our security team."
"You know me. I don't like to be in the spotlight. I have no choice but to do it."
His expression became more serious, and he said, "So it's good to stop at the right time. It's always good to be low-key."
"If only I had kept a clear mind like you when I was young—"
Bu Qingfang looked at Li Xuewu enviously and said, "You have grasped the measure and the scale."
"It's time to get off work, big sister——"
Li Xuewu smiled and pointed to the car waiting for her, saying, "If you keep praising me, I will really misunderstand that you have chosen me."
"Hahaha--"
-
The safety control drill on Friday made all the employees in the factory understand the true strength of the security team.
Silent as a cicada, keeping silent.
Whether it is an office or a workshop, under control, no one dares to go beyond the line. This is the deterrent power.
No matter how good your political literacy, how smart your intelligence, or how eloquent you are, at this moment there is only silence.
The deterrent effect of this kind of regulation is too terrifying and too oppressive.
This time, everyone clearly felt the pressure and also clearly recognized Li Xuewu's rights.
The image of the former tiger of the Security Department resurfaced in some people's minds, and made later employees frightened after hearing only a few rumors.
In an instant, the public security situation in the entire factory reached the optimal standard.
This is what Li Xuewu most wants to see, but also what he least wants to see.
He wanted to see good public security at the Red Star Factory, but he didn't want the public security to improve because of this pressure.
But just like he said to Bu Qingfang, he was caught up and there was nothing he could do.
As the head of the security team, he must take on this responsibility.
Although the security team did not punish anyone, nor did they intimidate anyone.
But this pressure has already penetrated people's minds.
As the head of the security team, Li Xuewu has to endure the fearful looks and strange looks from factory employees.
This is the result of leaving Lao Li in charge while he ran away to the city.
If you really show a majestic face and act domineeringly in the factory, you will never be able to escape from this circle in your life.
Even if he was not wrong, he still had to pay some price for it.
Maybe this is what many people want to see, there is no doubt about it.
Compared to the pressure that factory workers actually feel from the Security Department, some people are more sensitive.
Li Xuewu's work ability, which far exceeds that of ordinary people, has long brought them tremendous pressure.
At this time, if Li Xuewu relaxed, they could also take a breath.
So, there is no such thing as a wall falling and everyone pushing it down. Since he has not fallen, no one dares to push him.
It was his wise decision to retire at the right time.
Sometimes, if you take a step back, the world will be much broader.
Of course, if we take a step back and expose the dug pit, otherwise how will people jump in and how will he bury them?
There is never a shortage of innocent people who die in this world because they are eager for quick success. Li Xuewu wields his small shovel diligently and is the best at burying people.

"You're not here to pick me up, are you?"
Yu Li looked at Li Xuewu who walked into the compound and asked with amusement, "I suddenly can't believe it."
"Happiness comes too suddenly, doesn't it?"
Li Xuewu smiled, nodded and said, "Then I will pretend that I am not here to pick you up."
He gestured in the direction of the courtyard and asked, "Is Mr. Lou back from the meeting?"
"Humph--"
Yu Li snorted and said, "Sure enough, you are not here to pick me up."
"Look, I can't say anything—"
Li Xuewu spread his hands and said, "You don't believe anything I say, so what else can I say?"
"I'll listen to your words straightly. I'll listen to them anyway. I'll tear them apart and crush them to pieces," Yu Li pouted and said, "It sounds fake no matter how I listen to it."
She let out a long sigh, and looking at Li Xuewu who was smiling under the light, she couldn't help but laugh too.
He finally felt better after hitting Li Xuewu twice.
She pointed in the direction of the courtyard of the management office and said, "I arranged for the driver and Su Qing to accompany him personally. They are already back."
"Oh? How's your condition?"
Li Xuewu said with a playful expression: "Are you ecstatic, overjoyed, and in high spirits?"
"After all, he is an old man——"
Yu Li patted him and advised: "This kind of thing would be hard for anyone to handle."
"If you were him, it would be difficult in this environment and situation."
"Well, you understand him very well."
Li Xuewu smiled and glanced at her, nodded, and said, "I'll go see him. He's old now, and if anything happens to him, it will be hard to explain to Sister Lou."
"You also know——"
Yu Li said something to him, then explained: "I was very quiet when I got back from the fight. I quietly packed my things and will go back to the mountain tomorrow."
"Ugh--"
Li Xuewu sighed and said, "If it is really safe, why hold this meeting?"
