Chapter 1166: The suggestion is twins
Is there a smooth road?
Of course there is. The concept cars are there, made by engineers. Tell me, is there one?
Not only that, but you can also start the car and drive it!
And the performance is definitely as the engineer from Beijing Automobile Factory said, it exceeds the technology of 212.
Nonsense, the car manufactured by the Vehicle Engineering Institute at all costs must have more advanced technology than 212.
Such an advanced jeep, identified by Beijing Automobile Factory as the product of Red Star Factory to target their 212, must be put into mass production soon, right?
Um - wait a little longer -
Don’t ask, the answer is mass production immediately!
Li Xuewu is very much like Jia*Next Week, he is good at taking advantage of others and even smuggling private goods into the supply chain conference.
If you say he is mean, he will admit it. If you say he is bad, he will firmly deny it.
What's wrong with me just putting pressure on the Beijing Automobile Factory?
The 212 product must be said to be a success, successfully filling the gap in the domestic demand for jeeps.
Its only shortcoming is that it has no competitors. Given the current situation of the domestic automobile industry, it will not have trouble selling.
The motivation for upgrading and technological iteration comes entirely from the above requirements and has nothing to do with the market.
So, when the market opened up and they saw the advanced nature of imported cars, they became disappointed.
In the 1980s, what they probably thought about most was that we also had the opportunity to catch up with it twenty years ago.
Li Xuewu has experienced this regret before. The real rise of domestic cars came from electric cars, which overtook other domestic cars.
Without electric cars, can the salesmen of BBA lower their proud chins and show you their black stockings when you look at the car?
Beautiful you——
Car shows are always cordoned off with isolation tape, and you are not allowed to see the cars without your capital verified. They are so arrogant.
Although Li Xuewu was a loser, he still had a little bit of sentiment.
If you ask him what the ultimate goal of his dream of making cars is, he will tell you that it is to make his rough big hands able to grind black silk balls.
The 212 product is so successful and comprehensive that there is no other product on the market that can compete with it.
It is arrogant, it is floating, it thinks it is omnipotent.
What Li Xuewu is doing now is pouring a basin of cold water on the Beijing Automobile Factory to cool them down.
What is a brand, what is a segmented market, what is independent research and development, and what is people-oriented.
The Red Star Factory launched the Antelope car, abandoning the military market and focusing on the civilian market. It was further refined into three models: city, engineering and mountain, with both modification packages and optional packages.
This slap in the face really made the Beijing Automobile Factory break out in a cold sweat, and they finally realized that they couldn't have their cake and eat it too.
The overall quality of 212 is better than that of Antelope, but from the perspective of the civilian market, they themselves have to admit that.
If they are leaders of enterprises or institutions, they will also choose Antelope cars. Who doesn’t want to control costs, save fuel, or have more functions and comfort?
In terms of the manufacturing technology of core components such as chassis and engines, the Red Star Factory started out by surpassing the Beijing Automobile Factory.
Even though its power is not as good as 212, the overall output performance of the Antelope is still close behind.
Looking back at the Tundra, it is a large jeep designed specifically for the military market, completely abandoning the civilian excesses.
The chassis is higher, the protection is stronger, the power is stronger... in terms of overall technology, it completely crushes the 212 Jeep.
Why is Vice President Wang of Beijing Automobile Factory angry and sweating? The 212 is a car that can take on a group of cars alone.
At the beginning of the design, they followed the instructions of their superiors and had to take into account both civilian and military uses. As a result, now they are trying to please neither side.
If the Red Star Factory follows its nature of manufacturing cars, the cost price of this Tundra will definitely not be high, at least not higher than the 212.
In other words, if the Red Star Factory really built this car and put it on the market, the 212 would definitely be defeated.
The core issue is still the price. There is no need to discuss the performance. The more I look at it, the more disappointed I feel.
So, Li Xuewu is like an old lady eating persimmons, picking the soft ones.
He was most familiar with the 212 brand. The Red Star Factory already had a mature product, the Antelope, so of course it had to use the Beijing Automobile Factory as a substitute.
Only by proving that the products produced under the supply chain system, that is, Antelope Automobile, have caused great pressure on the Beijing Automobile Factory, one of the five major manufacturers, and forced them to advance technological and production changes, can other manufacturers be convinced of the deterrent power of the supply chain.
Li Xuewu has already thought of the headline for tomorrow's Industrial Daily: "The Wolf is Coming!"
Are the Red Star Factory people of good faith?
For the sake of the automobile industry, they went through so much trouble, scaring the Beijing Automobile Factory into a panic and making the other monkeys watch them kill the chicken.
Is the purpose to promote the supply chain, sell the production line, and control the sales channels?
No, talking about sentiment is too hypocritical, talking about interests is too straightforward, so let's just say something more neutral.
Industries have standards, just like train tracks and a nation’s writing system.
The Western world established this standard after the Second Industrial Revolution.
Of course, this is not decided by one or two people, but is the default in the process of the industrial system's establishment.
For example, in later generations of computers, you have to use the "Plague Death" system. No one has ever thought about why you should use it, let alone noticed what you need to pay for using this thing.
The same goes for industry. You buy my technology and machines, and you produce products according to my industrial system. I provide you with all kinds of conveniences, but you don't realize what's going on here.
And by the time you realize it, it's already too late, because my hands are on your chest...neck.
Just say, do you want to die or live? Don't say you want to live or die. It's too ambiguous.
This is definitely a unpleasant feeling. It's just a chip engraving machine, not very high-tech. It was originally stated that I would sell it to you in good condition.
As a result, I won’t sell it to you because you are doing too well and you can no longer be my dumping ground.
Therefore, it is enough to learn the lesson once. In the barbaric era, we must have a sense of standards, with the same track for both vehicles and writing for both.
The supply chain looks like a service platform, but in fact it is also a standard-setting platform. Otherwise, would Director Du of the First Ministry of Machine Building attach so much importance to it?
Li Xuewu was ruthless. Even if the Beijing Automobile Factory was unruly, he would kick them onto this smooth road.
There are several reasons why we should choose Beijing Automobile Factory:
First, they are close to each other, both in Beijing, and easy to coordinate;
Secondly, they are rich, and as the sons of the First Ministry of Machinery Industry, they have the power to bring about reforms;
Finally, the manufacturing process of the Jeep is easier to change, especially since such rough manufacturing calculations still have large errors.
Use the Tundra to destroy the last bit of luck of the Beijing Automobile Factory and tell them clearly that if they don't reform, the Red Star Factory will not leave them a single meal.
So, what is Li Xuewu’s plan for the Tundra?
Continue research and development, and suspend production.
Lao Li said that food should be eaten bite by bite, and girls should be picked up one by one... In short, don't be impatient.
Li Xuewu felt that what Lao Li said made sense, especially the last sentence: Don't be impatient.
The Red Star Factory was very poor, and Mr. Li was very cautious. Among the many projects launched, the only one that truly belonged to the Red Star Factory was the Antelope Automobile.
It has been almost two years since the car was first researched and modified, and is now ready for mass production.
The completeness and stability of the product reassure Lao Li. If a new product is really launched to promote the market-oriented economy, Lao Li will be very excited.
Especially for the positioning of the Tantu, military procurement is now the bulk of the purchase, but this kind of procurement is planned.
This plan was decided three or five years ago. What will happen to Beijing Automobile Factory if we switch to Tundra now?
So Tantu is not affordable housing, but improved housing.
When the economy allows, the technology matures, and there is a real need, that is when the smooth road will appear.
The military features of the Tundra concept car are just what Li Xuewu wants the Beijing Automobile Factory to see, and it is also used to scare them.
The real smooth road is not in appearance, but in the core.
In other words, if I think it is a military off-road vehicle, it is a military jeep, and if I think it is a civilian off-road vehicle, it is a mid-to-high-end jeep.
Therefore, what Vice President Wang of Beijing Automobile Factory saw was not the whole picture of the smooth road.
Antelope only produces compact low-end vehicles, while Tundra aims to occupy the mid-to-high-end off-road vehicle market in the future.
Opportunities are reserved for those who are prepared. Would Li Xuewu be willing to see Toyotas running on the streets in the 1970s and 1980s?
Of course, Vice President Wang will see Tantu today this year, and he will see Tantu again on this day next year, a more advanced Tantu.
Anyway, it only costs a few bucks to rub a car by hand, which is like a carrot in front of a donkey or a pervert behind a girl.
The main theme is "You dare not bet whether there are bullets in my gun!"
This car will appear right before your eyes every year, demonstrating the technical reserve strength of the Red Star Factory in a more advanced manner.
No need to ask, no matter what year you come from, Li Xuewu's answer will always be that mass production can be achieved immediately.
Believe it or not, it's up to you.
When you don't believe it, we will mass produce it and catch you off guard. Do you believe it?
Does Beijing Automobile Factory dare to take the gamble?

"You're so annoying—"
Gu Weijie glared at Li Xuewu, pointed to the exhibition area and asked, "Do you have a plan in mind?"
"This one is the thickest. If you don't eat it, I'll give it to someone else—"
Li Xuewu held a small piece of sugar cane in his hand and said, "It's very sweet, and it must be very juicy."
"Go away, you are becoming more and more unruly!"
Gu Weijie could tell that this bastard was playing tricks on her.
Even if she wasn't, she was the deputy director of the factory management committee, and she was standing by the rest platform chewing sugarcane!
She tapped her fingers on the table and reminded him, "Are you ready for tomorrow's exhibition?"
"Don't worry, nothing will happen." Li Xuewu did not touch the piece of sugarcane, but wiped his hands with a towel and added: "Even if something happens, it is Wang Yuzheng's fault."
Wang Yuzheng, formerly the deputy director of finance, became the deputy head of the economic management group and director of the finance department after the establishment of the management committee and the organizational structure changed, taking charge of financial management.
In March of this year, I don't know how he got in touch with Li Huaide. After Jin Yaohui got into trouble, he was transferred to the Tertiary Industry Management Office as the director.
Is there any need to think about it? It has been promoted.
I was promoted half a level to an expatriate position. My workplace is just outside the factory wall, and I even have to come back for meals. It's really uncomfortable to be expatriate like this.
Above the Finance Department is the head of the Management Group, who is the former director of the Finance Department, Lu Yuanshen, and above him is Jing Yunong.
After arriving at the Tertiary Industry Management Office, I am directly responsible to the supervisor.
Jing Yunong was originally in charge of the tertiary industry, but recently it has been gradually handed over to Cheng Kaiyuan.
Wang Yuzheng is not Jin Yaohui, who has been calculating for half his life and is very shrewd.
Even if I sell my butt to Li Huaide, I still can't lose my principles.
Jin Yaohui was originally trying to do something tricky here, but he didn't dare to do that.
Because whether he is responsible to Deputy Director Jing or Deputy Director Cheng, he has to be responsible to Li Xuewu.
This is definitely a hurdle he cannot get around.
Gu Weijie seemed to have heard something else behind Li Xuewu's words. She glanced at the exhibition and did not respond to the conversation.
“Besides the vehicle engineering achievements display, how are the other displays?”
"The construction of the distribution warehouse has received a lot of attention," Li Xuewu explained. "Most of the brother companies that came this time are small and medium-sized companies, all of which have the dream of making cars."
“The competition is still very fierce.”
Gu Weijie nodded, crossed her arms and looked at the people moving around in the exhibition area, and reminded them, "We are under a lot of pressure, too."
“Is this what you call pressure?”
Li Xuewu tilted his chin and said, "We have established multiple production lines for multiple models, and the technology of core components such as engines and gearboxes is far ahead."
He gestured to the crowd at the exhibition and said, "We are already a leading automaker, and they are the ones who are under pressure."
“You may not realize what this supply chain conference means.”
Gu Weijie turned her head to look at Li Xuewu, raised her eyebrows and asked, "Expert Li, please give me some advice?"
"Okay, okay—"
Li Xuewu smiled and said seriously: "The supply chain conference held by Red Star Factory today will definitely become a watershed in the automotive industry."
He gestured to the left with a swipe of his hand, saying, "In the Spring and Autumn Period, when we filled the gap in the automotive industry, trucks, cars, and jeeps were considered successful and there was no shortage of markets."
After that, he gestured to the right and said, "Then came the Warring States Period, when the automobile industry flourished. When making cars became as simple as piling up blocks, excellent products emerged like mushrooms after rain."
"You could still compete for supremacy in the Spring and Autumn Period, but in the Warring States Period..."
Li Xuewu deliberately left the sentence unsaid, leaving Gu Weijie to think about it herself.
"What about the Red Star Factory? If you divide the automobile industry into the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period."
Gu Weijie found this explanation very interesting. She looked at Li Xuewu with interest and asked, "What do you think Red Star Factory should do?"
"This question is not easy to answer." Li Xuewu stood up straight and said with a smile: "It will take me ten years to explore and answer it."
Gu Weijie raised her eyebrows and said, "Then I'll wait and see."

Red Star Factory announced a bombshell on the afternoon of the first day.
Lao Li told the CEOs of various manufacturers who came to visit that the Red Star Factory will select several key cities in the north and south to build spare parts warehouses in the future.
In other words, the automotive parts supply chain is not enough, and it is necessary to implement standardized production in the automotive industry.
Some parts, such as screws, bolts, fasteners, bearings, etc., are actually interchangeable.
The reason why current automobile products cannot use interchangeable parts is that this was not taken into consideration when the automobiles were designed.
Once the supply chain is established, the cost of manufacturing cars will decrease, forcing car companies to reduce unnecessary investments.
When it comes to design, we should try to minimize the consumption of similar alternative products.
In other words, the Red Star Factory will publish a supply, sales and inventory standard for auto parts warehouses.
If you design based on this standard, you don't need to design this part.
Moreover, it saves the procurement and production links. Once you place an order, the goods will be shipped immediately, which ensures production efficiency more comprehensively.
A more direct impact is that when these parts are damaged, they are easier to repair and replace.
In this way, auto parts manufacturers can also greatly save production costs, killing two birds with one stone.
However, without first discussing why the Red Star Factory took so much trouble to bear the cost pressure, let's just say that after doing so, the cost of making cars has been reduced to a lower level.
Mother Ganlin!
Listen to what Li Huaide said!
"I am honored to announce to you that we have just completed the acquisition of Fengcheng No. 1 Machinery Plant..."
Mr. Li’s speech is not very long-winded, but he has to take everyone’s feelings into consideration.
He couldn't let the brother units that had come from afar feel so obviously that he was showing off.
So to put it briefly here, what Lao Li said was that Hongxing Factory, based on its complete core technology, took the lead in establishing a machining industry cluster.
The core production technology belongs to the Red Star Factory, but the results are shared with cooperative enterprises in Fengcheng and Gangcheng.
These units contributed money and manpower, and Red Star Factory provided technology and management, and together they built a machining enterprise with advanced productivity in Liaodong.
What is related to the automotive industry is that the production capacity of core components such as engines at the Red Star Factory has been greatly improved, and it is expected that these products can be provided to supply chain companies in the future.
Look, people used to say that making cars is difficult, but what is so difficult about it?
The production cost of conventional parts is high, and the technology of core parts is difficult. With only passion and design and tight factory construction costs, how can we dare to throw all these into the river?
It’s different now. The first step taken by Red Star Factory was to change the production system of conventional parts, so you don’t have to produce them yourself.
The cost of purchasing from our supply chain is even lower than producing it yourself, aren’t you happy?
That’s not all. We not only provide conventional parts, but also standardize and formulate production standards for conventional general parts, which greatly reduces production and design costs. Aren’t you happy?
It’s not over yet. You said we don’t have core technology, but now we have it. Our factory also provides excellent core components!
Those car companies that have already established themselves and achieved mass production are cursing, while those that are preparing to build cars and expand their projects are cheering.
These people actually all know that no matter how generous the Red Star Factory is, the core components it sells are iterative products.
Look at what Li Huaide said about generosity. All the core components used by Antelope Automobile are now on the shelves.
fart!
The technology currently used by the Antelope is still an improved version, which is the basis of the Willys cars in the 1930s and 1940s. Even if it has been improved, how advanced can it be?
Yes, even with such poor technology, we can’t make it.
However, it is not difficult to see from Lao Li’s generosity that the core technology used in the Antelope II must be a leapfrog upgrade and iteration.
The first generation of this basic technology has been eliminated, but it has been beautified and become a synonym for the generosity of the Red Star Factory.
Although small and medium-sized automobile companies that want to build cars feel uncomfortable, they still have to cheer.
It's better to have something than nothing. After solving the production problems of core components and conventional components, they only have the problems of designing and building factories left.
Is this also called a difficult problem?
The most swearing ones are the "advanced" car companies like Beijing Automobile Factory.
There are already car companies imitating 212, but they cannot charge patent fees and have to provide support with drawings. It's very heartbreaking.
Now it’s good. There’s no need to imitate. Others don’t need to do that anymore. People who design tractors can now design cars.
Just like assembling a bicycle, you would pick out parts and engines from the Red Star Factory’s warehouse, pull them back on a tricycle, and assemble them at home.
The news announced by Li Huaide and his explanation of the automobile manufacturing industry system reminded everyone of a kind of furniture that is very popular across the country.
It comes in bulk. You can choose the grids and sizes you want and assemble them yourself at home with a screwdriver and a hammer.
Assembling furniture confused carpenters, and transporting auto parts to warehouses confused car companies.
Looking at the heated atmosphere at the scene, the red-eyed car makers, the CEOs of 17, SAIC, Beijing Auto and Jiangnan factories looked at each other and felt a pang in their hearts.
Just tell me, should we do this production line and supply chain or not?
The Red Star Factory is putting a knife to their necks. If they stick their heads out, they will be stabbed; if they keep their heads down, they will also be stabbed.
If we really let Red Star Factory build up its supply chain, a monopoly will be formed. Is this possible?
-
At five o'clock in the afternoon, the test drive area began to collect cars and the exhibition area also began to clear out.
The test drive area can still be visited and tested tomorrow, but the exhibition content for today has ended.
After the venue is cleared at six o'clock in the evening, the original booths will be dismantled and replaced with tomorrow's booths.
As the host, Red Star Factory spent an entire afternoon today to exhibit its industrial and technological achievements.
Tomorrow, in the morning and afternoon of the second day, we will show everyone the development achievements of supply chain enterprises.
So, when the company leaders and technicians left to have dinner and prepare for the evening tea party, the exhibition hall had to be busy all night.
Lectures in the morning, exhibitions in the afternoon, a whole day of gains. I believe that the CEOs and technical personnel of each unit have something to say and talk about.
The Red Star Factory also thoughtfully prepared fruits, tea and other treats for them, so they could chat around the fire at night.
The pavilions and gazebos on both sides of Tuanjie Lake in the guesthouse were brightly lit, and waiters were already preparing for tonight's activities.
Li Xuewu had dinner in the canteen, then went back to the office to handle some business before coming to the guesthouse.
When he arrived here, the people on both sides of Tuanjie Lake were already more numerous than mosquitoes.
Zhou Yao stood nervously under the big tree at the entrance, holding a walkie-talkie in her hand, always on guard against any danger that might occur at the exhibition.
She has been under a lot of stress recently because there are always accidents outside the factory and there are so many activities inside the factory that she can't even rest well on weekends.
"Have you got a meal yet?"
"Ah! Leader - you scared me -"
Zhou Yao, who was staring at both sides of Tuanjie Lake, was frightened by the voice behind him.
Just as he was about to get angry, he saw clearly that the person coming was Li Xuewu.
She uttered a word in the clear voice unique to young girls, then felt embarrassed and lowered her head to tidy up the hair around her ears.
"Hehehe——"
Li Xuewu did it on purpose, and was trying to scare his female subordinate for fun in a very unleaderlike manner.
Seeing him smiling like that, Zhou Yao knew that he was a bad guy, so she pouted and snorted.
"If you haven't eaten yet, I'll treat you—"
Li Xuewu pointed to the small restaurant in the guesthouse and said, "I have some money saved here. You can put it in my account when you get there."
"You are so generous—"
Zhou Yao pursed her lips, looked at the event site and said, "If you want to entertain guests, choose a guesthouse. You can also save money and put it on account."
"I heard that even Nie Xiaoguang is eating your braised pork."
"What do you mean by my braised pork——"
Li Xuewu glanced at her with a smile and said, "If you want to eat, just go ahead. Don't be polite."
"I'm done, working lunch."
Zhou Yao rolled her eyes, then couldn't help laughing and said, "Wait until tomorrow. I haven't eaten meat for a long time."
"Then I have to withdraw all the money tonight!"
Li Xuewu looked stingy, which made Zhou Yao laugh and make her laugh.
In fact, Zhou Yao also knew that the leader was kind-hearted, fierce on the outside, but talented on the inside.
Especially after get off work, I am even kinder to them and rarely scold them. I mostly play around with them.
Be serious when you should be serious, be serious when you should be serious, and be kind when you should be kind.
Many people in the Security Department said that some of her little habits and temperament were very similar to Li Xuewu.
She had to admit that in learning how to become a qualified security guard, her target was Li Xuewu.
Li Xuewu didn't see how she was similar to himself, so he took advantage of this free moment to ask about the case from the previous few days.
"The procedures at the branch office have been completed, and the process at the Zhengzhi Department went very quickly, and our materials are also very complete."
Zhou Yao introduced: "Director Zheng is personally supervising the process, and Director Wang is in charge, so the process is quite fast."
"Have you dealt with everyone?"
Li Xuewu swept his arm to drive away the mosquitoes that were close to him, then looked at Zhou Yao and asked, "Did you let Nie Xiaoguang go?"
"No, I'll detain him for fifteen days to make him behave himself."
Zhou Yao pulled the corner of her mouth, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "Leader, do you have any arrangements for him?"
"Hehe, why do you ask?"
Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said, "He is just a child. What can I do for him?"
"I don't know. I see you take good care of him and care about him..."
Zhou Yao spoke for two sentences and then stopped talking, and continued to answer the previous question.
"Tong Yan was sent away in the morning as you instructed, but you also told her to cooperate with the investigation and evidence collection at any time."
She emphasized: "I asked her to meet with Weiguo, and they didn't say anything."
"Wei Guo and others were taken away by the branch the day before yesterday afternoon. Now Nie Xiaoguang is the only one in the detention room."
"Well, keep an eye on it—"
Li Xuewu did not look happy as if the case had been successfully handled. This was a murder case, there was no reason to be happy.
"You should pay more attention to Nie Xiaoguang. I think he has a physique that invites disasters."
After saying that, he pointed to the event site and went inside.
Zhou Yao stood there, staring blankly at Li Xuewu's back, still wondering in her heart, what is a disaster-prone physique?
A jinx?
-
"Leader, the heads of the five major factories have gathered together."
Sha Qizhi turned around and saw Li Xuewu coming over, so he hurried up to report, "He's upstairs, and a secretary is blocking the door and won't let him in."
"Yes, I understand—"
Li Xuewu raised his head and glanced at the windows on the second floor. The curtains were drawn tightly. Was it a gang fight?
"It doesn't matter. Our core theme is openness and cooperation. You only talk about cooperation and not openness?"
He patted Sha Qizhi's arm and led him into the crowd, saying as they walked: "You have to be more open-minded and have more room for people in your heart."
Are you kidding? Would Li Xuewu be afraid that the five major factories would come together and kick Red Star Factory out?
Of course, the five major manufacturers working together are absolutely capable of establishing a new automotive parts supply chain platform.
You don’t even have to figure out a way yourself, just copy what Red Star Factory did.
During this period, it was nothing more than you copying me, I copying you, and everyone copying each other.
Copying from one place to another, the technology is stuck in the same place, and the products are not good enough, which has become a vicious circle.
Not only was Red Star Factory not afraid of the five major factories copying it, it was even willing to open its doors to allow them to copy.
If this puddle of water is not stirred up, who knows which stick is thicker and more powerful?
Anyway, Red Star Factory is a professional troublemaker, so they are not afraid of these old guys.
From machining to production lines, from technology to equipment, from specialized factories to marketing channels, Hongxing Factory has a complete automotive industry system.
We are well prepared when it comes to supply chain, but who will be in charge when it comes to your supply chain?
If you say that Beijing Automobile Factory is the only one to do it, then there is a chance that it can be done.
But five of them are doing it together, haha!
Have you heard the story of three monks who had no water to drink? Three monks had no water to drink, but five monks had water.
Besides, even if they have established a supply chain, who will they sell the parts to?
Are they willing to give up their core components to support the new car-making forces in snatching their development opportunities?
This is a very interesting matter. Li Xue told the Wudang joke to Li Huaide. Guess what Li Huaide said?
He said that the conveners of these five families were like swallows that felt pain when they saw people pooping.
hiss--
I have to say it’s Lao Li, the director of the management committee is really cultured. Look at the words he uses, so fancy.
The protagonist of tonight's tea party must be the Red Star Factory, and everyone is discussing the achievements and technological displays of the Red Star Factory.
Another thing that everyone gathered together to discuss is the impact of Red Star Factory's move on the domestic automobile industry.
Li Huaide and a group of factory leaders did not stay for long. After work, they came over for a walk and then went back to their homes.
Li Xuewu was very relieved about the situation here. When the host was around, the guests would not feel comfortable, so the leaders of the Red Star Factory played the role of hosts and left.
He was also in a hurry to go home, to play with his daughter and coax his son. Life was not just about the dog in front of him, but also about sex and consummating his marriage.
-
"Are the scooters your factory produces easy to ride?"
When Li Xuewu went to bed at night and came back from the study, he heard his wife ask this question.
He looked at Gu Ning in surprise and asked, "Do you want one?"
"What am I riding for?"
Gu Ning glanced at him and said, "It's just these two steps. If I ride a motorcycle..."
She didn't say the second half of the sentence, but Li Xuewu knew it, she was just showing off.
He lay down on the bed, put his arm around Gu Ning's shoulders, let her lean on him, and asked, "Why are you asking this?"
"I heard someone in Corey talk about it. He said it's very easy to ride and is shorter than a bicycle."
Gu Ning raised his head, looked at Li Xuewu and asked, "What do you think about buying one for Mom?"
"You are so avant-garde—"
Li Xuewu looked at his wife with amusement and asked, "Why did you suddenly think of buying a motorcycle for Mom?"
He really couldn't understand Gu Ning's train of thought. Letting an old lady ride a motorcycle?
"It's convenient to go home. Can't you see that mom misses home——"
Gu Ning patted him lightly and reminded him, "You didn't go back last time. You have something to do this week, so you still can't go back..."
"Ah—I know—"
Li Xuewu nodded helplessly and said, "I'll ask Guodong to pick you up, or Jiankun to take you back."
"Do you think Mom will agree?"
Gu Ning pushed him away, sat up and said, "Mom has been very careful since she came. She was afraid of causing trouble for us, so she specially sent her back. Even if the child and I followed, she would definitely not be willing."
"I can come back tonight. We have to have a meeting until late tomorrow night." Li Xuewu leaned against the bed and thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "I have to be busy all day on Sunday and won't be back."
"So I said, if it's really convenient, buy one for mom and she can use it as a means of transportation."
As a daughter-in-law, Gu Ning is really willing to spend money on her mother-in-law.
A motorcycle costs 499 yuan, what kind of purchasing power is this?
When a city man and woman get married, the full set of preparations doesn’t cost this much, so she just gave it as a gift.
Of course, on the one hand, both husband and wife can earn money, and Li Xuewu has other income besides his salary.
On the other hand, I see that my mother-in-law is having a hard time, having to get up in the middle of the night to help her take care of the children, so I want her to have more time to rest.
Five hundred yuan is equivalent to her salary for most of half a year.
"You should ask your mother if she can ride it. After all, it is a motor vehicle."
Li Xuewu patted his wife on the back and reminded her, "She is petty-minded. If you ask her to buy something for her, she will definitely not let you."
"Of course you can't say you bought it for her—"
Gu Ning glanced at Li Xuewu in a reproachful manner, followed Li Xuewu's instructions and lay down. She twisted her body in his arms, found a more comfortable position, looked at the night outside the window and said, "Just say I bought it myself and let her use it together."
"Well, Mom didn't hear it. If she had heard it..." Li Xuewu propped himself up and looked at her, smiling, "Even if I complained, I would definitely say in my heart that you are the best daughter-in-law in the world!"
What answered him was Gu Ning's rolling eyes and the reservedness of pushing away his strange hand.
"What are you doing——I have to go to work tomorrow——"
Gu Ning glared at her and threatened softly, "You have to get up in the middle of the night to feed her!"
"I would like to feed it, but I have to think carefully!"
Li Xuewu sighed and lay helplessly on the pillow, his anger turning into complaints, "What's the point of having a son? He will only steal my wife!"
"Humph--"
Gu Ning raised his hand and punched him, wanting to snort, but unexpectedly couldn't help laughing.
Looking at him acting like a rogue, he lay on Li Xuewu's broad back with amusement.
This back was as big as a panel, and half of her body was lying on it, rising and falling with Li Xuewu's breathing, and they felt each other's presence and warmth.
"I didn't expect it to be more than a year."
She said softly, "Li Shu will get into trouble, and Li Ning will turn things around. Time flies."
"Hmm..." Li Xuewu laid his head on the pillow, humming softly, and said, "I feel like time is passing very slowly."
"As long as I'm with you, there are always bits and pieces of life that are worth remembering and experiencing, and I can't bear to let go of even a minute of it."
"Um--"
It was rare that Gu Ning did not feel shy or refuse after hearing his cheesy love words. Instead, she put her arms around his body, wanting to hold them closer to each other to prove that his words were true.
"Do you remember the first time we met?"
“I remember every meeting we had.”
Li Xuewu raised his shoulders and gestured to her, "When I first met you, I didn't expect that you would be my life forever."
"I thought of—"
Gu Ning's voice was a little low, and it was also a little romantic with memories. She leaned her head against Li Xuewu's shoulder and said, "At that time, I thought, you are so great, at worst I can marry you--"
“Poof—cool, cool—”
Li Xuewu didn't dare laugh out loud, for fear of waking up his son. He could only rest his head on the pillow and laugh quietly, allowing Gu Ning to hit his shoulders hard. He was shy.
In the field hospital, bombardment was raging, and life was like leaves, some on the trees, some in the mud, and some turned to ashes...
At that time, everyone had a red heart and didn't care about life and death. We were all sons and daughters of the motherland, so who cared about love?
He was injured and disfigured. Some of his comrades felt sorry for him, but Gu Ning, who was experiencing such an environment for the first time, was also filled with fear and tried to remain calm.
Her colleagues knew her background, but Paodan didn't know who she belonged to. Aren't there enough deaths in that place?
After playing around, the two of them stopped talking and reminisced about each other's youth and war.
The thing Li Xuewu regrets least in his life is that he dedicated his youth to national defense and his life to the frontier.
If he could measure the border line with his life, he would be willing to grow one centimeter taller and lie upright in the deep mountains and forests.
On a quiet night, the noisy sounds of crickets downstairs outside the window echo the sound of gunfire deep in my memory, which is a reference to peace.
It was unknown how much time had passed before Li Xuewu felt the coolness of his pajamas. He turned around silently and hugged Gu Ning, who was in tears, in his arms.
Only those who have experienced war can appreciate the value of peace, and only those who have experienced war dare to sacrifice their lives for peace.
"Mom called me—"
Gu Ning sniffed and sorted out her emotions before telling Li Xuewu, "Weiguo's mother called her."
"I did expect them to do this." Li Xuewu was not surprised at all. He just sneered and said, "I just didn't expect their bottom line to be so low."
"Mom is very angry, but she can only be angry. She has no one to complain to, so she can only call me to remind me to take good care of you."
Gu Ning took the initiative to hold Li Xuewu's hand and said, "Sometimes I wonder if there is really a hand of fate that plays tricks on life and plays tricks on mortals."
"This hand?"
Li Xuewu teased his wife by lifting the hand she was holding, and said with a smile: "My hand doesn't have the ability to manipulate life, but to manipulate..."
"bad--"
Gu Ning pouted and punched him, saying angrily, "Have you ever been serious?"
"In the middle of the night, I hugged my wife and talked about life and cause and effect. Am I sick?"
Li Xuewu held Gu Ning in his arms rudely and domineeringly, looked at her and said, "I don't know if it's cause and effect, I just know they asked for it."
"If I had lived a clean life and done things uprightly like me, would I have ended up like this?"
He rested his forehead against Gu Ning's and said, "Now you should think about whether it's better to have a son or a daughter as your second child. My suggestion is twins, boy and girl..."
