Men and women eating in the courtyard

Chapter 971 Five Years and Five Years

Look what I do!

No one in the whole rolling mill knows that I have a kind heart! Honest and honest!

You want me to come up with a bad idea? !

Got the wrong person? !

When Li Xuewu saw Li Huaide's eyes sweeping over him, his expression couldn't help but froze slightly.

"It's the end of the year, and a group of fat pigs have been released in the Weisan Reclamation Area."

"Well, well, keep talking."

Li Huaide's solemn expression was relieved, and the burden of a thousand dollars suddenly collapsed at the moment Li Xuewu spoke.

There is nothing in the steel rolling mill that Li Huaide can't solve!

If so, it must be because he hasn't had time to ask Li Xuewu.

"Except for those from the Weisan Corps who are staying for the New Year, I think our canteen can be brought back to prepare for a New Year event."

Li Xuewu took a sip of tea and explained in a warm voice: "This year's production plan has been completed so well, and the big study activities have been carried out so thoroughly. It is time to celebrate."

"Then what?"

Gu Weijie became a little anxious. Listening to Li Xuewu's roundabout ways, she asked, "What does this have to do with personnel management?"

"That's a huge relationship."

Li Xuewu turned to look at Gu Weijie and said: "With the theme of reporting on the results of production and construction labor, I would like to express my condolences and praise to the employees who are struggling on the front line."

"Of course, there must be one, two, and three things to praise. In addition to outstanding representatives of enterprise employees and advanced individuals who have performed well this year, I think we can hold a technology competition."

"Technical competition?"

Gu Weijie frowned slightly, glanced at Li Xuewu, and then looked at Li Huaide to ask what he meant.

Li Huaide raised his head slightly and said to Li Xuewu: "How do we calculate the sequence of technologies?"

"The success or failure must be determined based on a comprehensive assessment of theoretical knowledge and professional skills!"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows and said: "From now on, we can start preparations and publicity for the event. The New Year will not be celebrated until February 8th, which is a good time to engage in competitions."

"First, the competition is scheduled to end on February 6th and the whole factory will eat pork. This is called cannibalism."

"Give me another month to study and practice. This is called etiquette before fighting."

"A six-day theoretical and technical competition will be held one month later. This is called fair and reasonable."

"Finally, it is said that unqualified personnel must be rotated for labor training. This is called a gap and a path."

“During the entire month of January, the Human Resources Department organized and coordinated senior skilled workers to form professional skills training teachers, and conducted training and education in workshops and departments.”

He stood up and pointed at the calendar under the glass and explained: "Today is December 29th. Two days are enough to prepare for the event. The 31st can be announced and started."

"Starting from January 1st, all labor positions will carry out job skills training activities according to categories. The official competition will be on February 1st. The competition will end on February 6th, and the assessment results will be announced while eating pork."

"The length of the order is drawn up, the level is set, and the qualifying line is set according to the department's job clearing ratio, which is fair and reasonable."

Li Xuewu sat back on the chair, looked at the two people and said: "The main assessment is safety standardization, job operating procedures, job skills practice, etc., strict examination discipline, and ensure fair results."

"Those with outstanding achievements should be praised and rewarded, and they can be rewarded with skill level adjustment or labor title recognition."

"There can even be high-value material rewards such as radios, electric fans, and televisions to enhance employees' competitive enthusiasm."

"Those whose scores are above the passing line will retain their original positions, or their technical positions will be adjusted based on skills competition results and actual production needs."

"Those whose scores are below the passing line are generally said to be inferior to others in terms of skills. They are willing to admit defeat and be sent to the construction labor team to engage in production and re-learning."

"The adjustment and elimination of personnel positions will be completed in February before and after the New Year, giving employees enough time to react and learn, and also giving everyone time to celebrate the New Year."

"The second batch of new employees will be able to take up their posts in March, which will alleviate the production pressure on the posts to a certain extent and will not have an impact on the production plan."

"Another batch of new employees will be hired in May. The eliminated employees will be under increasing pressure to learn and exercise, and the enthusiasm of new employees will be greatly improved."

Li Xuewu looked at Li Huaide and said, "Now that I have given you pork to eat, time to study, determined the scope of the competition, and given you a heavy reward, even if you are devolved from labor, no one will say anything, right?"

"Well, that makes sense!"

Li Huaide's eyes lit up when he heard this, he nodded to Li Xuewu, and said with an expression of "It's still you who loses": "We must create a personnel vacuum in various workshops and departments to create job competition pressure!"

"First, we must eliminate workers who have loose labor discipline, are lazy, and fail to pass the skills assessment!"

He then nodded to Gu Weijie and said, "Removing this group of people and filling them into the construction team will speed up the construction of existing engineering projects!"

Gu Weijie's mind was spinning as she listened to his words, but the emotion on her face was in complete agreement.

But when Li Huaide turned to look at Li Xuewu to ask about the shortage of labor and construction forces, she glanced at Li Xuewu, which was not a good look.

Li Huaide really had no memory of stealing and being beaten!

Do you believe what Li Xuewu said?

How stupid is it to let Li Xuewu sell it and still call this place a good one?

You just saw that he was trying to get rid of the workers, but you didn't see that he was also cheating on you!

Think about it!

This guy is the prime minister’s man who can support the boat!

You set a stage for him, and it doesn't even count as if he retaliates against you. He has to kick you to relieve his hatred!

Some time ago, you two were so good, so good, but later you had to use Jin Yaohui and Shi Ruoweng to disgust him and suppress him.

Now just watch, this weak man is lying in the hospital and doesn't dare to come back. This knife is not sharp, he will definitely trick you!

This idea is so bad!

Who are those workers going to scold when they see this!

"Existing engineering construction projects include three factories in the food industry, electronic and electrical appliance factories, shipyards, automobile manufacturing plants, hardware manufacturing plants, tertiary industry and joint production and manufacturing plants, guaranteed residential areas, new workers' villages, and steel mills and metallurgical industries." .

Li Xuewu saw Gu Weijie's strange look, but Li Huaide was talking to him and had no time to think.

"The automobile manufacturing plant must complete construction by March, the shipbuilding plant by June, the food industry by August, and the electronic and electrical appliance factory by August..."

He didn't even need to look at the notebook, he just muttered, and Li Huaide's brows gradually wrinkled again.

"After complete calculation, next year's project construction work is expected to require about 15,000 construction workers."

Li Xuewu reported seriously: "In addition to the more than 2,000 people currently deployed by Dongfeng Construction, local construction units have provided part of the engineering construction force. It is estimated that there will be a gap of about 8,000 to 10,000 people."

"so much?!"

Li Huaide's hand on the table shook slightly, and then he clenched his fists. After a moment of hesitation, he said firmly: "Then these eight thousand people will be drawn from the existing service offices, logistics offices and other departments, as well as front-line production and labor workshops. Prepare in batches."

"Next year, 20,000 people will finish their training and take up their jobs! They will be hired in batches!"

He was also cruel, and he clicked Gu Weijie and said: "Strive to achieve the goal of eliminating 11,000 people before the end of the year!"

Isn’t this Lao Li going crazy?

The scoldings from 8,000 people were enough to choke him, but now he needs to add insult to injury!

Gu Weijie was beating her heart, looking at Li Huaide and Li Xuewu, unsure of what the two were planning.

Isn't this just to trick her? Don't go back and make trouble. She, the one who just watched the fun, took the blame!

No, this matter needs to be clarified!

Gu Weijie was thinking about it in her mind. She just said that the steel rolling mill originally had 15,000 employees, and 3,000 automobile manufacturing and technical workers were added, and 2,500 shipbuilding and technical workers were added.

Next year, there will be another 3,500 merged automobile manufacturing workers. How many people is this?

This group of employees and logistics service personnel will add another 17,000 new people, and the overall labor construction force will be reduced to 11,000.

If we calculate the elimination rate based on the number of existing employees, it would be a 40.7% elimination rate.

If we calculate the elimination rate based on the overall employee base, it would also be 29.7%.

In other words, even if temporary workers, service teams, logistics teams and other personnel without actual productivity are used as the main deployment force.

When all projects are put into production at the end of next year, 30 to 40 percent of the people will be involved in project construction.

From a positive perspective, this suggestion has greatly eased the pressure on factory investment and construction to a certain extent, and also reduced the waste of human resources that she is most worried about at present.

In particular, once the technical competition and major job adjustment activities are carried out, the enthusiasm for learning and work of existing employees will be stimulated.

The problem of overstaffed personnel that originally existed in the production workshop and service department will be completely solved.

In particular, the personnel vacuum mentioned by Li Huaide and the purpose of creating job competition pressure are in line with the current policy of steel rolling mills to dare to act in the process of groupization goals.

but!

Gu Weijie is very aware of the political risks this represents, and I believe Li Xuewu and Li Huaide will not fail to see it.

"Director Li, you can compete in skills competitions, you can assign times, you can also reduce service logistics posts."

She reminded seriously: "But with such a large-scale job transfer and adjustment, you have to pay attention to the fluctuations in the thoughts of these 8,000 people and these 11,000 people."

"Comrade Xuewu gave me some suggestions on this issue last week."

Li Huaide looked at the documents in front of him and said: "The prerequisite for labor recruitment work must be correct propaganda orientation and political ideological education."

"First of all, we must emphasize the spirit of dedication. In order to achieve the grand goal of groupization, in order to complete the construction of tertiary industry projects, and in order to build trade and production projects, it is not only necessary to form a construction team of workers."

He looked up at Gu Weijie and continued: "We also need to form a youth commando team and a labor, production and cultural propaganda team."

“More importantly, it is necessary to recruit cadres from factory agencies, and establish an advanced ideology of cadres taking the lead, young people taking the lead, and cadres taking the lead...”.

Listening to Li Huaide turn this matter around, giving this labor team a deeper political mission and labor significance from a political standpoint and a fundamental sense.

Gu Weijie turned her head and glanced at Li Xuewu in slight surprise. The meaning in her eyes couldn't be more obvious: You are really hurt!

Not only eliminating 8,000 people, but also cutting off some government officials.

In other words, after solving the problem of overstaffing in labor positions at one time, we must also solve the problem of overstaffing in management positions.

Well done!

It can be heard from Li Huaide's words that this task is arduous, glorious, and comes with a historical mission.

Just tell me, which of these selected cadres dares to refute?

Workers can fight to keep their jobs through technical competitions, but cadres in the agency can only obey the deployment!

Li Xuewu understood Gu Weijie's eyes, turned to look at her, smiled slightly, and said, "I suggest that Comrade Shi Ruoweng, deputy director of the Administrative Committee Office, lead a team of government cadres to work on the front line of production and set an example!"

Li Huaide nodded when he saw Gu Weijie's surprised look, indicating that Li Xuewu had already communicated this matter with him.

He also said: "If the production and construction goals are not achieved, the team led by cadres will never be withdrawn, and cadres will continue to be assigned and transferred to work and exercise, determined to speed up the construction of the steel rolling mill project."

"..."

Gu Weijie somewhat understood. This suggestion was not only to solve the problem of overstaffing in the steel rolling mill's office positions. The deeper layout was that Li Huaide and Li Xuewu were completing the adjustment of the cadre team.

Other factories are now adjusting cadres in the name of large-scale study and decentralizing training and learning. The steel rolling mill is similar.

It's just that it's more moderate in comparison, at least retaining the basic treatment and development opportunities for cadres.

Of course, this is not to punish them, but to give them the historical mission of taking the lead in labor, and to sweat and sacrifice for the goal of grouping the steel rolling mill.

They are there to take the lead in labor, but they are also in management positions, managing these workers on the front line.

Li Huaide also said that these cadres will not withdraw until the project is completed.

Good guy, it's not like she hasn't seen Li Xuewu's project construction and development plan. This project will be held until at least five years later.

Of course, the positions in the agency in the past five years cannot be left without people. The high school students and college students recruited in May and June this year will come in handy.

Young cadres at the grassroots level will continue to emerge and advance to middle-level management positions, gradually replacing the old and stubborn old ideas and realizing the rejuvenation and innovation of the cadre team.

As for what to do with those cadres who are deployed to the labor force, who can say clearly what will happen five years from now.

If any additional construction projects are added to the steel rolling mill in the past five years, it may be delayed for another five years.

Five years after five years, five years after five years, these people will basically lose their competitiveness if they don’t retire.

When Gu Weijie thought of this, cold sweat ran down the back of her head. She really didn't expect that this pit would really fall under her feet.

But Li Huaide and Li Xuewu invited her over for a meeting, wasn't it just another level of compromise and discussion.

She is in charge of personnel cadres, and the specific implementation plans and management systems must be implemented through her.

I gave her a certain amount of pressure before and gave her a solution. Now if I share the cake with her, you think she has nothing else to say.

“The second thing is to emphasize the spirit of learning”

Li Huaide still said to himself: "In the process of labor construction, collective learning and self-learning must be strengthened!"

"Job skills assessments must be organized regularly, and outstanding workers must be re-adjusted to their posts, either back to the original workshop, or transferred to positions where they are more needed."

Okay!

Just now, when Li Huaide emphasized the changes in personnel positions, he bit eleven thousand... The unit is not people, but person-times.

In other words, those who leave the labor force do not stay in the labor force forever. As long as they pass the assessment, they will return to their production positions.

The pressure in Gu Weijie's heart suddenly eased a lot. If the job adjustments of more than 8,000 people were not relaxed in this way, it would probably cause a big fuss.

Li Huaide dared to say that he was naturally prepared. He continued to emphasize: "Furthermore, we must emphasize the issue of welfare benefits."

"In any position, there is a matching salary. If the technical level does not change, the salary will not change."

What he said is very clear. Job adjustment is not a punishment. It is just a redistribution of labor work in the steel rolling mill according to the labor ability and technical ability of the employees.

Wages remain unchanged, benefits remain unchanged, and benefits remain unchanged, but the location and method of labor have changed.

"The fourth is to emphasize the awareness of the owner and the successors, and to have an overall view and correct technical concepts."

Li Huaide said: "Most of the newly recruited employees in the steel rolling mill are children of employees, and the positions to be adjusted are also for their children."

"We don't engage in the old custom of passing down the inheritance from father to son. That's a backward ideology. Instead, we engage in technical competitions!"

"You have been adjusted, either to achieve self-improvement, to compete for strength with technology, or to compete for positions with ability."

"If not, we must obey the overall situation and make way for the future of the steel rolling mill and the future of the employees' children."

Gu Weijie glanced at Li Huaide, lowered her head and silently took notes, still calculating in her mind.

"I have some suggestions and plans regarding the future of this construction team."

Li Xuewu took the initiative and said: "By the end of next year, the number of labor team workers will reach 11,000, and I estimate that 3,000 to 4,000 will be able to return to production jobs."

"In other words, the total number of people has increased, and there are also people who are studying and returning to work, but some people are constantly being eliminated, creating a virtuous cycle."

"Based on next year's new employee recruitment target, the number of this labor force will remain at a dynamic level of 7,000 to 8,000 people within two years."

"My suggestion is to continue to train new employees to join production positions and continue to eliminate unqualified technical workers from labor positions."

"The total number of workers in the steel rolling mill is estimated to be around 40,000 by the end of next year, with 8,000 accounting for one-fifth. This just proves that the technical training and production labor in the steel rolling mill are meaningful."

"These eight thousand people continue to invest in the project construction, which not only tempers their minds and tempers their will, but also supports the project construction work of the steel rolling mill in the next five years."

"The existing scientific research, education, living and other construction facilities including Beijing Workers' New Village, Steel City Workers' New Village, Liangma River Industrial Zone, Steel City Health Resort, the new Steel City Steel Rolling Industrial Base, and other projects will be launched in the next five years. , construction is a big problem.”

"With these 8,000 people, Dongfeng Construction only needs to take on the technical management and project management parts. While saving construction funds, it can also train the workforce and achieve multiple goals with one stone."

"I agree with Comrade Xuewu's opinion."

Li Huaide took a smoking cessation pill, his hands were busy and his mouth was not idle.

"The three production areas of Beijing, Steel City, and Yingcheng will maintain an industrial productivity of 30,000 people and a construction productivity of 8,000 people. They will continue to recruit workers in the next five years."

"Of course, it is impossible to decentralize quotas for batches of thousands of people like today."

Li Huaide looked at Gu Weijie and explained: "The recruitment focus will be on the training of workers in its own vocational and technical schools, as well as the recruitment of high school graduates and college students inside and outside the school."

"Five years!"

He raised his hand and gestured with a slap, and said: "In five years, we will basically be able to complete the completion of existing projects, and the new projects will have the ability to continue construction."

"The new employees have highly standardized and compliant technical production capabilities, the financial situation has completed a virtuous cycle, and the entire factory has completely transitioned to a group production management model..."

Gu Weijie could tell that Li Huaide highly agreed with Li Xuewu's personnel opinion.

In the subsequent communication, she did not mention any new issues. Regarding the two directions currently discussed, she also said that she would revise next year's personnel work plan and will discuss it at the meeting next Monday.

Because Li Xuewu and Li Huaide would have a meeting with visiting Italian and business representatives later, she came out first after the meeting.

The moment she went out, she looked back at the two people who were still discussing, and a meaningful smile appeared on her face.

The old fox wants to plot against everyone, and the little fox wants to remove his stool, tear down the old fox's mass and political foundation, and remove one of the old fox's legs.

This game is so fun!

——

"How dare you call this a blueprint?!"

At ten o'clock in the morning, Li Xuewu, as a business representative, greeted the visiting Andrew and his party downstairs in the guest house.

The other party's arrogance was quite large, not because Andrew brought many people, but because there were many business service personnel assigned to him.

Li Xuewu just took a quick glance, said hello to these people, and then took Andrew and others to the conference room on the second floor.

The conference room in the main office building is mainly used for internal meetings. At present, external meetings are basically held in the guest house.

In the future, for external meetings or considering the convenience of the city, we will also consider holding receptions in international hotels.

Everyone just exchanged a few words and then took their seats on both sides of the conference table at Li Huaide's invitation.

Andrew came with great sincerity this time, and he must leave with a definite attitude.

Therefore, at the beginning of expressing his opinions, a thick stack of shipbuilding drawings was submitted to the steel rolling mill.

Xia Zhongquan, as the chief technical engineer, also attended the meeting with his ship technical engineers from the technical office.

Li Xuewu sat next to him, listening to Andrew's speech, and stretched out a ship design drawing to read.

While he was fiddling with the drawings in his hand, he couldn't help but whisper to Xia Zhongquan beside him: "How dare you call this a design drawing?"

After saying this, he curled his lips and said disdainfully: "What kind of Jiba thing did you draw? It's not as good as mine."

"..."

Xia Zhongquan was stunned, looked at the drawings in Li Xuewu's hand, and recalled the past masterpieces of this soul designer, and almost shed tears.

He was also used to seeing soul masterpieces, so he felt inexplicably sad about such "medium-standard" design drafts.

"It's really not as good as your painting, at least it lacks some soul."

"..."

Mr. Zhou, a shipbuilding expert from Huaqing, was sitting next to them. Hearing the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.

He even looked at Xia Zhongquan with a little bit of pity and a little bit of contempt in his eyes.

Pity is that Jing Xia Zhongquan can really bear the humiliation, but contempt is that Lao Xia is a bit flattering.

"Well, you still understand me!"

Li Xuewu smiled and nodded, giving Xia Zhongquan a look like we are one of our own.

He considers himself a soul harvester and has more than two hundred souls in his hand. Are you competing with him on soul design?

Who said that! Stand up and let me see!

I think your soul is particularly suitable for this design draft of mine. Lend it to me for use!

Xia Zhongquan completely admired and praised Li Xuewu's design ability, but he really couldn't compliment Li Xuewu's design works.

Faced with Li Xuewu's smile, what can he do?

Of course, he had to smile back with admiration, and then turn his head pretending to listen to what the Yi Shang representative said.

Andrew had inspected the production and operation capabilities of the steel rolling mill last time, and personally followed Li Xuewu to Jicheng to visit the shipyard.

This time, it was not just a matter of continuing negotiations, but his attitude was very clear and he brought a complete set of cooperation and procurement plans.

Here, the fiberglass production equipment and technology mentioned last time, as well as the production equipment and technology of powertrain systems such as diesel engines, transmissions, gearboxes, and generators are noted in detail.

Andrew said that the complete production equipment and technology he could provide only included the above-mentioned parts, and the rest needed to be purchased in the mainland.

Li Xuewu had been preparing for today's negotiations for a long time, so he naturally didn't care about his problems.

As the commercial negotiation representative of the steel rolling mill, he also took the initiative to explain the production cooperation of core parts.

Except for the fiberglass that needs to be completed with the Beijing Glass Factory, other equipment will be independently produced by the steel rolling mill itself.

Andrew has received the cooperation plan for this part, so the two sides quickly completed the negotiation agreement on core parts.

"Yacht manufacturing is not a job that can be completed by one person or one factory."

He sat on the other side of the desk, spread his hands and said: "I don't doubt your factory's shipbuilding capabilities, but yachts are very special, especially the procurement of parts."

"Mr. Andrew"

Li Xuewu spoke directly in French, and also gestured to the other party's accompanying secretary, asking the other party to translate it into Chinese for others to hear.

"Our factory's decision to take over your company's production order task is not a hot-headed boast, nor is it a deception of your time and feelings. Our goals are the same."

He said sincerely: "It will not be a smooth road on the road of development and construction. We are willing to work together with your company to solve all the bumps and difficulties encountered on the road of development."

"We also ask Mr. Andrew to be as confident as we are in our cooperation. You can raise any questions and difficulties."

"Thank you, Mr. Li Xuewu"

Andrew nodded to the accompanying staff, and seeing that everyone in the conference room showed concerned eyes, he began to speak: "I want to raise a few procurement requirements."

Li Xuewu calmly raised his head slightly, indicating that he could speak and he was listening.

Andrew nodded and said: "First of all, the cabin auxiliary equipment, including air compressors and supporting equipment, air conditioning and refrigeration, pressure vessels and other equipment."

"Okay, okay, no problem"

Li Xuewu raised his hand seriously and found a cooperation document from the documents at hand and placed it in the middle of the table.

"This is a cooperation agreement between our factory and Beijing Refrigeration Equipment Manufacturing Plant. The main content is the purchase of modified equipment for refrigerated trains."

While the translator was whispering the details of the document to the other party, Li Xuewu also made a brief introduction: "Including air compressors, air conditioners and pressure vessels, we can contact the refrigeration equipment factory to complete the production task according to the procurement standards proposed by your side."

The translator nodded to Andrew at the end of the translation, indicating the authenticity and completeness of the document.

Andrew was a little surprised. He didn't expect that the rolling mill itself had such a large equipment as refrigerated transport trains.

He looked at the document in the translator's hand, turned to look at Li Xuewu and continued: "We need to purchase deck machinery, including mooring equipment, anchors, anchor chains, chain (anchor) devices, etc."

"And"

He didn't wait for Li Xuewu to answer and continued: "Lifebuoys, life rafts, waterproof clothing, heat insulation clothing, thermal insulation clothing, fire extinguishers and other fire-fighting equipment."

"Instruments, electronic appliances, wires and circuits, communication electronics and other aviation appliances."

"Spraying equipment, sandblasting equipment, abrasives, special paints and other surface treatment tools."

He put forward a lot of purchasing requirements in a row, as if to emphasize the special nature of yacht manufacturing.

"Don't mention paint and spraying tools, we are a professional shipyard"

Li Xuewu's answer was very straightforward: "Deck machinery, aviation electrical appliances, engineering equipment, surface treatment and other needs can be directly purchased and assembled from Yingcheng Shipyard."

"We also have instruments and electronic control equipment in Yingcheng Shipyard. If you have special requirements, we also have a professional design and research team to implement special production guidance"

He flipped through the documents and provided a document on cooperation with Beijing TV Factory to the translator.

"Our factory is cooperating with Beijing TV Factory to carry out tertiary industry construction for the production of electrical instruments and other engineering needs."

I don't know if the translator can explain the meaning of tertiary industry to the other party, but Li Xuewu didn't care.

"Lifebuoys, life rafts, waterproof clothing, heat insulation clothing, thermal insulation clothing, fire extinguishers and other fire-fighting equipment are not a problem"

Li Xuewu turned his head and smiled at Li Huaide, saying: "Our factory has its own fire-fighting equipment manufacturing plant, and the product sales are very successful."

Li Huaide felt the confidence from Li Xuewu. He also smiled slightly, and his eyes were full of pride when he looked at Andrew.

You are a family-owned shipyard. How dare you compare yourself with a group enterprise that is committed to building a trust? It's like an ant trying to shake a tree.

We are called a steel mill. Do you really think we are a steel mill? !

Li Huaide is now increasingly looking forward to establishing a group company. In the future, it will be called Red Star Group, which makes people envious.

The people sitting in the conference room are not only people from the steel mill, but also not just Italian business representatives. The cadres of other departments such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Industry saw what Andrew meant, and at this time they also showed a playful smile.

Andrew saw that Li Xuewu answered so easily, frowned and looked at the documents handed over by Li Xuewu very seriously.

The translator was quickly explaining the contents of the contract to him and guaranteed the reliability of the relevant cooperation.

"Yacht manufacturing is a very complex and rigorous project"

Andrew seemed to be explaining his own concerns and worries. He looked at the documents in his hand and said, "In addition to the industrial base, rich living equipment is also needed."

"Including office, living, kitchen, sanitation, furniture, electrical appliances, decoration, etc."

He explained, "Welding, cutting, and flaw detection will be used on yachts, and special glass, hardware, plastic, rubber, steel, wood, etc."

"Hehe~"

Li Xuewu was not surprised by Andrew's emphasis, and even chuckled.

His performance today was not like he didn't know much about yachts when he just looked at the drawings.

Xia Zhongquan admired him most for this. No matter whether he understood it or not, he dared to brag, and he could brag to the point!

"Special glass, hardware, plastic, rubber, steel, etc. can all be purchased from the United Three Industry Enterprises"

Li Xuewu spread his hands and said with a smile, "I said, please have confidence in our cooperation, we are a big company."

"We can produce the office, living, kitchen, sanitation, electrical appliances, wood furniture and decorations you mentioned by ourselves."

"There are joint enterprises that our factory cannot produce, and joint enterprises can also purchase from supply chain companies if they cannot produce them."

Li Xuewu pointed to the wood furniture mentioned in the plan and introduced: "It's a coincidence that we just received the news."

As he said this, he glanced at everyone at the conference table and said with a smile: "Our factory's cooperative distributor is about to invest in a large furniture manufacturing plant in Tianjin."

"Hahaha~"

Everyone in the conference room laughed at Li Xuewu's humorous tone.

Although Andrew had doubts in his heart, he still kept a gentleman's smile on his face.

He really wanted to use the complexity of yacht manufacturing to embarrass the steel mill in the negotiation.

Don't say that foreigners don't know how to show off their power, they are playing six tricks!

The willingness to cooperate is very strong, but this does not prevent him from deliberately embarrassing the steel mill.

As long as the steel mill is a little vague and hesitant at the negotiation table today, it will be suppressed by the other party in momentum.

This is related to the issue of initiative and voice in the entire cooperation process.

Andrew did not expect that the steel mill was so well prepared, and all the problems were solved and answered.

It was as if the steel mill had everything, except for him, an old man, to provide a design and manufacturing plan.

In today's game, the trump card he played at the beginning did not work at all with Li Xuewu.

Others would be shocked, confused, admired and admired when they saw the pile of drawings.

But from Li Xuewu's point of view, he could only get an evaluation of "what kind of idiotic things are you drawing? They are not as good as mine."

This is called ignorance is fearless, and when a scholar meets a soldier, he can't explain his reason clearly.

Andrew knew that he could not win, but he still had a backup plan.

Just as the negotiations were coming to an end, Andrew invited a group of representatives from the steel mill to go to Tianjin and Yingcheng Shipyard to conduct on-site inspections and work.

This arrangement had been reported in advance by the Italian side, and the invitation on the spot was just a means for Andrew to show politeness.

As the person in charge of the steel mill, Li Huaide first expressed his gratitude for Andrew's invitation. He also extended an invitation to Andrew on behalf of the steel mill.

Invite the other company to enter the trade center of the steel mill in Tianjin to conduct business.

The two sides ended the negotiation in a mutually polite and peaceful atmosphere.

The restaurant of the guesthouse had already prepared a Chinese dinner to entertain the God of Wealth of the steel mill.

According to the negotiation meeting process, after lunch, Li Huaide and Li Xuewu led the relevant personnel of the Foreign Affairs Office, Economic and Trade Office, Technology Office, and Management Committee Office of the steel mill, accompanied Andrew's team, and the relevant comrades from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, and the Ministry of Industry to the Beijing Railway Station and boarded the train to Tianjin.

At the negotiation meeting, Li Huaide's initiative to extend the invitation was the same as Andrew's false politeness.

Andrew had already communicated with Li Xuewu, and he would place the technical team and production management team in Tianjin.

Because of the situation and political conditions, the Trade Management Center in Tianjin happened to rent several offices for office use.

Why should an office be placed in Tianjin?

The office was supposed to be in Yingcheng, but he brought the technical workers and management team with him. These people are all foreigners who need life and entertainment, which the mainland will not and cannot provide.

There are often cargo ships going back and forth between the Jinmen Port Terminal and the port city, and his people have a "home" in the port city, so setting up an office in Jinmen is convenient for these foreigners to return to the port for vacation.

The lifestyle of foreigners is different from that of mainland workers. They say that work is work, but there must be life and entertainment.

Especially in this era, technical personnel are very popular and are Andrew's treasures.

This time, Andrew's trade negotiation team will go to Jinmen with Li Huaide and stay in the Jinmen Trade Management Center for one night.

Both parties will have a simple entry ceremony at the Jinmen Trade Management Center, and Andrew will also arrange for people to start working directly.

Tomorrow morning, Li Xuewu will serve as the negotiating representative of the steel rolling mill and will take Andrew's yacht with others to the Yingcheng Shipyard for inspection and negotiation.

It is impossible for Li Huaide to take the other party's ship, especially this kind of cross-sea voyage. What if something goes wrong?

Andrew's technical and production management team is already waiting in Tianjin. When the time comes, they will go to Yingcheng with the fleet, and they will come up with a construction supplement plan.

This is the temporary negotiation process. What Li Xuewu can see now is that Andrew, the old man, seems to want to show off to him.

Because this trade negotiation team is more important and has more people, a soft seat carriage was coordinated with Beijing Station.

The train is also quite interesting. Li Huaide knows the accompanying cadres of the Ministry of Industry and Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation.

Liu Shaozong, deputy director of the Planning Department of the First Bureau of the Ministry of Industry.

Gao Yaqin, deputy director of the Technical Department of the Department of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation with Europe.

The accompanying deputy director of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is Li Xuewu's old acquaintance, Zhou Gancheng.

He is the foreign affairs cadre who handled the Li Shu incident in the Northeast.

The two stood at the connection of the train, each holding a cigarette without lighting it, looking at each other in silence, which was quite funny.

Li Xuewu saw that Zhou Gancheng looked at him with a strange look, as if he meant that you kid has become a deputy director!
