Chapter 1634 The Most Poisonous Heart is a Woman's

Jing Yunong liked his domineering nature. He sat up in bed, looked at Li Xuewu who had returned from washing up, and shook his head, saying, "You're a bad guy—"

"But you're the one who gets spanked every time!"

Li Xuewu pointed at her, raised an eyebrow, and said, "Your unfounded accusations are slander against me. Unless you apologize, otherwise—"

"Even ten people couldn't argue with you."

When faced with his smooth talk and flattery, Jing Yunong felt as powerless as if he were lying there and letting him do whatever he wanted; even when his mouth went numb from spitting, he couldn't do anything about it.

She put on some slippers, swayed as she went to the bathroom, and after tonight she could at least hold out for a week without wanting to see him again.

"Are there any problems with the audit of the machinery factory?"

Li Xuewu was no longer sleepy. He took out some materials from her file bag and started reading. Coincidentally, he had recently been studying financial management.

His advice to Yang Zongfang to keep learning until old age was not just empty talk; if it were, Yang Zongfang wouldn't trust him.

One advantage of working in a government agency is that you only need to know one skill, even something as simple as driving.

You can drive, and you can be a driver for life, as long as you don't violate management regulations. The company will always need someone to drive, right?

But if you want to move into a management position but don't have many skills, that's easy too. Just stay in the government office. As long as you have enough emotional intelligence and are shrewd and adept at dealing with people, you can do very well even if you're just a mediocre employee at the grassroots level.

But if you want to govern a region or be prominent in public, one or two skills are not enough, because these positions require you to be versatile.

The reason why promising young cadres are sent down from government agencies to local areas for training is to allow them to learn and grow while handling various tasks.

Of course, not all young cadres who are sent down to the countryside can learn enough about interpersonal relationships and work skills.

During the evaluation and selection process, apart from interference from certain factors, these young cadres will be gradually promoted based on the evaluation results.

Do as much work as you are capable of, and become a cadre according to your abilities. That's why we say you should learn until you die.

Li Xuewu is considered a top student at Honggang Group. Even if his academic qualifications are somewhat lacking, his knowledge is by no means lacking.

When he graduated from the Iron and Steel Institute, some people questioned the legitimacy of his university degree and questioned his appointment.

But every achievement he made was a powerful response to these doubts, to the point that no one dared to mention his university degree.

Even those university graduates with higher academic qualifications are not necessarily as knowledgeable or capable as him.

There's no comparison. Li Xuewu has been working and studying at the same time all these years, and he only benefited from the extra tutoring he received from professors during his years at the Iron and Steel Institute.

As a result, he accumulated a lot of academic resources and connections during that period of study, which made it much easier for him to improve himself.

Li Xuewu is not obsessed with academic qualifications and doesn't need to use graduation certificates to build a tower of influence for himself; his current academic qualifications are sufficient.

These days, where can you find so many graduate students? A few years ago, you could get a job as soon as you graduated from a vocational high school, so many good students chose to give up going to high school.

Which is more reliable: graduating at sixteen or seventeen and earning a living to support your family, or striving for a vague and uncertain university qualification?

Everyone knows that college graduates are the pride of heaven and the pillars of the nation; everyone knows that having a college degree leads to a more brilliant future.

However, students from working-class backgrounds couldn't afford to gamble, which resulted in a decrease in the proportion of college students from rural areas on university campuses over the next decade or so after liberation, while urban children had more and more opportunities to succeed.

Li Xuewu doesn't comment on the changes in the situation over the past few years, nor does he dare to comment on the right or wrong of history. He only knows that ordinary people need fair opportunities more than ever.

Despite being from the city and having a doctor as his father, his family wasn't exactly poor by the standards of the middle class.

But if we look at it from another angle, would he have achieved what he has today if he hadn't broken through a certain ceiling?

Think about it more carefully, do they really have that kind of privileged lifestyle?

In this day and age, knowledge can truly change one's destiny. His knowledge base and self-learning ability enabled him to advance his career and receive help from benefactors.

Because of his talent, he was able to get in touch with Dong Wenxue, gain Fu Bin's appreciation, and enter Gu Ning's home.

Because he was capable enough, he was able to get in touch with Ji Weidong, and his third brother, Xuecai, was a good match for Ji Yuxiu.

Because he was capable enough, Li Xue was able to remain worry-free even after experiencing academic setbacks in her life.

His siblings can rely on him to change their fate, and the fates of his parents, relatives, and those around him will be affected by him to varying degrees.

The saying "Knowledge changes destiny" is always true.

Even decades later, even if someone around you enjoys the resources from their parents' entrepreneurial ventures and has no worries about food and clothing in the workplace.

But upon closer reflection, the barriers of knowledge have never hindered the poor; even in remote mountains, there are still determined individuals who can change their destiny.

Li Xuewu's meteoric rise to prominence was nothing more than his foresight and self-discipline, and his greater understanding of the power of learning than others.

It's nonsense to say he uses the time others spend drinking coffee to read newspapers, but it's true that he uses his spare time each day to read books.

Learn organizational theory, learn physics, learn mathematics, learn dynamics, learn to fly a plane, ski, and so on...

He will learn as long as he deems it necessary.

He had no trouble understanding the materials in Jing Yunong's bag; some technical terms no longer seemed like gibberish.

As a manager, he doesn't need to be as knowledgeable as an academic; he just needs to understand the meaning of these numbers and the principles behind them.

If he works hard enough, he might even master the ability to manipulate these numbers, and he could replace Jing Yunong.

Do you think there's anything wrong with them?

Jing Yunong came out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel, took out skincare products from his bag, and asked a question while applying them.

Li Xuewu said without looking up, "I'm not here to do auditing work, how would I know?"

After saying that, he looked up at her and said, "You want me to judge based on my impressions of Xiao Zihong and the machinery factory?"

Are you this harsh on yourself?

Jing Yunong glanced at him sideways and said irritably, "You can't even bear to utter a single subjective judgment?"

"If that's really the case, then I'd better be a little harsh—"

Li Xuewu smirked and said, "I'm not a worker in the factory, so I can arbitrarily question and evaluate my subordinates' work and character."

“Heh—” Jing Yunong chuckled, “Even if you’re a worker in the workshop, it won’t work. If there’s a problem with the professional standards, you should contact the organization.”

She glanced at Li Xuewu with a mocking look and said, "This is something you created, and now you're going to shoot yourself in the foot."

"I don't believe these rules and regulations can shut the workers up." Li Xuewu looked at the documents in his hand and said calmly, "There is only one way to stop the workers from cursing: fairness, impartiality, and transparency, and to serve the people, the organization, and the collective wholeheartedly."

"See, I told you ten people couldn't compare to you."

Jing Yunong wiped his face and body, handed him a glass bottle and said, "Help me wipe my back, I can't reach it."

"What is this thing?" Li Xuewu asked suspiciously, looking at the glass bottle in his hand. "Can it be used to wipe your body?"

“Autumn is dry.” Jing Yunong lay sprawled on the sofa and explained lazily, “It’s a kind of skin lotion, you wouldn’t understand.”

"I don't understand." Li Xuewu stood up helplessly, flicking the glass bottle in his hand to dab a few spots on her back, rubbing them as he said, "Have cosmeceutical companies made their products this complicated?"

"Of course it's complicated for you guys."

Jing Yunong said with a laugh, "Let me ask you, how many kinds of cosmetics do you know? If you can name three, then you're really something."

Do you take me for a fool?

Li Xuewu chuckled and patted her bottom, saying, "Don't forget, I was the one who decided on this project."

"Hmm—wipe the back too."

Jing Yunong turned his hand back to himself, pulled down the bath towel to reveal most of his buttocks, and said, "Name three things first."

"Lipstick..." Li Xuewu refused to believe it and started to say it, but he got stuck after only saying "lipstick".

"Keep talking—" Jing Yunong smiled like a little hen that had stolen some rice, teasing him and urging him on.

"Lipstick, face cream, butt balm—"

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes, and after applying the lotion to her, he gave her a light slap on the butt.

"Hahaha—" Jing Yunong didn't care about his punishment at all, and laughed loudly at his overestimation of his abilities.

"I remember now, there's also an eyebrow pencil."

Li Xuewu, not to be outdone, pointed at her and asked, "The eyebrow pencil, was it black or gray again?"

"Dai Se, don't make wild guesses if you don't understand."

Jing Yunong got up from the sofa, glanced at him with amusement, and said, "Don't try to be brave. You'll never understand women, let alone cosmetics."

"Then you'll never understand men!"

Li Xuewu retorted, unconvinced, "You can name three different cigarette brands..."

Before he could finish speaking, he saw Jing Yunong taking out cigarettes from his bag. The question hit the nail on the head. "Hahahaha—"

Li Xuewu was speechless. He glanced at her and asked, "Don't you not smoke?"

"I just learned how to do this recently." She skillfully lit one for herself, then gestured to Li Xuewu and asked, "Want one?"

"No, I've already quit smoking."

Li Xuewu looked at her very seriously and said, "Smoking is harmful to your health. You don't want to cough every day when you're old, do you?"

"You can't even live a good life now, how can you think about what it will be like when you're old?"

Jing Yunong chuckled self-deprecatingly, leaned back on the sofa, looked at him, and said, "If you quit smoking, then don't smoke anymore. You'd better live to be a hundred."

"Thank you, but could you please not limit the number?"

Li Xuewu twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "What if I live to be 110?"

"Ha—you're really good at talking nonsense!"

Jing Yunong lay there with his legs crossed, covered only by a bath towel, and said with a laugh, "Aren't you tired of living so long? You're only in your twenties."

"I'm not tired at all, the longer the better."

Li Xuewu picked up her work documents again and looked at them, replying, "I will always have enthusiasm and passion for new things."

How many years into your marriage are you?

Jing Yunong, smoking a cigarette, looked at him with a dazed expression and said, "When you get to my age, you won't think like that anymore."

"Do you think I chose marriage solely out of passion and love?" Li Xuewu looked up at her and said calmly, "If that were really the case, I would never be here."

"You are the most complicated man I have ever met."

Jing Yunong narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at him, saying, "You can find all the good and evil in the world."

"How did you describe me—?"

Li Xuewu feigned displeasure and retorted, "If that's really the case, then what are you? Accompanying the devil?"

"I've long since sunk into the abyss, unable to escape—"

Jing Yunong smiled as he assessed himself, then looked at him and said quietly, "And you are the abyss."

"You're mistaken, aren't you?" Li Xuewu looked at the materials and chuckled, "You're the abyss, and I'm the one who can't extricate myself."

"Get lost—" Jing Yunong threw the cigarette pack beside him, hitting him squarely. He glared at him and scolded, "You scheming devil—"

After finishing his cigarette, seeing how intently he was looking at the screen, he couldn't help but ask, "What were you thinking, giving such a good opportunity to Yang Zongfang?"

“He deserves it.” Li Xuewu gave an answer that made Jing Yunong roll his eyes.

"He resolved the problems with Furnace No. 4."

Just as Jing Yunong was about to ask more questions, Li Xuewu looked up and explained, "This time, the investigation team didn't find any new evidence."

"Oh ho—" Jing Yunong looked at him with slight surprise and asked, "So Su Weide was defeated by him?"

"You can't say that."

Li Xuewu placed the materials in his hand on the coffee table, picked up his hot tea, took a sip, and said calmly, "He just did what he was supposed to do."

"It seems you've tamed this stubborn mule." Jing Yunong nodded knowingly and said, "Your methods are truly unexpected."

"Believe it or not, I've never done that, nor have I ever thought of it." Li Xuewu looked up at her and asked, "Do you think I need to cultivate loyal followers within the group?"

"Don't give me that 'the virtuous will receive much help' nonsense—" Jing Yunong got up, took his underwear from the back of the sofa and put it on, and said with a sneer, "If that were really the case, you wouldn't need to overhaul the metallurgical plant."

She got up, tidied her half-dry hair, and went to the vanity mirror, saying, "I don't care what your plans are, I'll give you another year at most."

"A year isn't enough time—"

Li Xuewu turned the teacup on the coffee table and said, "Two years, at least two years. I will definitely fulfill your wish by then."

"How can I trust you?" Jing Yunong asked, looking at him in the mirror. "I've been at Hongxing Factory for four years. Can I really stick it out for another two?"

"Absolutely, because Lao Li needs you."

Li Xuewu turned to look at her and emphasized, "As long as you want to stay, as long as Old Li doesn't let you go, no one can transfer you away."

"If only that were the case—"

Jing Yunong was somewhat persuaded by him, and picked up a wooden comb to comb his long hair, but still complained, "I'm afraid Old Li won't be able to hold on until then."

"You should have confidence in General Manager Li."

Li Xuewu turned around with a smile, drank the hot tea in his cup, stood up and walked towards the tea cabinet, saying, "You should also have faith in me."

"I don't believe you for a second—" Jing Yunong rolled his eyes at him in the mirror and said, "You promised twice a month, how much do you owe me?"

"Ah ha—" Li Xuewu, holding a thermos, replied with amusement, "I don't even plan to pay back what I owe my fellow readers, why would I care about your ten or eight times?"

He walked back, raised his teacup, and asked, "How about we do it again tonight, count as two rounds?"

"Twice! Once!" Jing Yunong glared at the bastard in the mirror and emphasized seriously, "This is a matter of principle."

“But I said once or twice.”

Li Xuewu raised an eyebrow and said, "You should trust my abilities. I guarantee quality and quantity, and I will never compromise on the single flight experience."

"Get lost—" Jing Yunong said irritably, "Once or twice, twice is one. Don't try to negotiate with me. I know more math than you."

She straightened her hair, turned around and looked at him earnestly, saying, "I have never trusted anyone as completely as I trust you. You must not let me down."

I never let you down—

Li Xuewu nodded very seriously and said, "Don't worry, we've weathered many storms, I won't capsize in a ditch."

“I won’t argue with your comparison of Suweide to a sewer, but you underestimate Zhou Wanquan.” Jing Yunong stood up, walked to the sofa, threw his clothes at him, and said, “He’s more shrewd than you think.”

"I don't think so." Seeing that she had no intention of getting another drink, Li Xuewu took the clothes and put them on, saying confidently, "Compared to Lao Su, he's no match for me."

"Don't be so arrogant, you're not a god."

Jing Yunong was both fascinated by his confidence and couldn't help but earnestly remind him as he watched him stumble: "He has the support of the capital's industries."

"I'm not a god, Old Su is."

Li Xuewu let her help him button his shirt, then reached out and patted her face, emphasizing, "Do you know who supports Lao Su?"

“You told me that.” Jing Yunong was displeased with his actions and glared at him, but still helped him put on his clothes with very gentle movements.

"Compared to Lao Su's background, Zhou Wanquan is really no match."

Li Xuewu raised his chin slightly and said, "I was planning to leave him to be handled by President Li. Without Lao Su, Lao Li will get too cocky."

Why are you always afraid he'll become arrogant?

Jing Yunong reached out and straightened his collar, deliberately tugging at it, and said with amusement, "Hearing these words, you sound like his father."

"Please don't say that, I'll feel guilty."

Li Xuewu reached out and smoothed his hair, saying, "I'm afraid he'll get carried away, and I don't want him to really leave like this."

Looking at the comrade in front of him, he blinked and emphasized, "If he gets away, who knows what kind of person will come up next."

"You've got him figured out, haven't you?"

Jing Yunong helped him put on his clothes, patted the large hand off his body, tilted his head and said, "Goodbye, take care, don't bother seeing me off."

"Hmm?" Li Xuewu looked at her with displeasure and said, "You can't even say thank you?"

"Thank you for your service, goodbye."

Jing Yunong ruthlessly "chased" him out of the room, leaving behind a series of smug laughs.

Standing in the corridor, Li Xuewu glanced at the corner of his mouth and silently cursed: "A sword in the mouth of a tiger, a needle on the tail of a snake, neither of these are as poisonous as a woman's heart." Only then did he go back to his room to sleep.

-

Li Xuewu was the most vengeful person. He clearly saw Jing Yunong at the restaurant for breakfast, but pretended not to see him and ate breakfast with Zhang Enyuan at another table.

This scene, witnessed by restaurant staff and other observant individuals, confirmed that the rumors about the group's management were not unfounded.

The relationship between the secretary-general and the chief accountant is really disharmonious.

Jing Yunong ate breakfast with a smug and victorious smile on his face. Whether it was his imagination or not, breakfast tasted especially delicious today.

She finished eating before Li Xuewu and the others, and when she left, she walked with a brisk pace, looking extremely energetic and graceful.

Even the front desk staff felt that President Jing must be very satisfied with the service here, and must have slept very well last night.

Otherwise, why would President Jing always have a smile on his face all morning, be friendly with everyone, and be so energetic and radiant?

It's all because of their excellent service!

Damn it, I'm not eating anymore—

Li Xuewu ate two steamed buns, a large bowl of porridge, an egg, and a dish of pickled vegetables before putting down his chopsticks.

How can someone come to Fengcheng to attend a meeting and still get to eat at their own company's restaurant?

This is a loss!

"Ah, as long as I'm not hungry—"

Li Xuewu raised his chin, pointed to Zhang Enyuan and Qi Yan who were eating at the table, and reminded them, "Save some room in your stomach, there's a big meal coming up at noon today."

"Pfft—" Zhang Enyuan almost choked to death on the rice porridge. He had never seen the secretary-general so stingy before, why was he so obsessed with the food?

Qi Yan couldn't help but smile. He had known this son-in-law for a long time and knew he was an interesting person.

You don't believe me?

Li Xuewu curled his lip and said, "It's just a bet on a meal. If we don't get a fancy meal, I'll treat you when we get back to Steel City. If we do..."

"Boss, I believe you—"

Before he could finish speaking, Zhang Enyuan cleared the food from his mouth and solemnly assured him, "I have complete faith in your judgment."

Li Xuewu glanced at him speechlessly, then slowly nodded and reminded him, "Comrade, life is more than just work; you need to learn to be humorous."

Seeing the leader get up and leave, Zhang Enyuan glanced helplessly at Qi Yan, who had already finished eating, and smiled wryly, not knowing what to say.

Qi Yan truly lived up to his word; he said nothing, simply patted his arm, and got up to prepare the car.

Learn to be humorous?

Zhang Enyuan sighed, thinking to himself: You can joke with me, but do you think I dare to joke with you? He kept trying to be funny, but ended up making jokes that went too far.

What is the most important quality for a secretary?

It's not about ability or skill, but about a sense of proportion—knowing what to do and what not to do, what to say and what not to say.

He felt he was already quite good, at least better than Li Xuewu's former secretaries; he was a professional, after all.

Li Xuewu didn't know if he was a professional or not, but he was the most professional when it came to talking nonsense.

He only spoke for a dozen minutes at the resource integration office meeting that started at 9 o'clock, but he had already set the direction for the discussion.

Hu Ke had said before he arrived that the Honggang Group could not exist without Li Xuewu.

Li Xuewu must participate in this project as an advisor. He emphasized that Deputy Director Lu very much hoped that he could come and provide valuable opinions.

What kind of opinions are valuable?

Leveraging its marine and port advantages, the province will concentrate its chemical industry in one direction and utilize its geographical advantages to create an integrated industrial system.

It's important to emphasize here that he was talking about focusing on a specific direction, rather than concentrating on a single city; the core theory is still the industrial line.

Honggang Group has established industrial lines in Yingcheng, Gangcheng and Fengcheng in Liaodong, and is deeply cultivating the industrial base of these three cities.

The goal is to connect these lines to form a fundamental basis, and then expand to the industrial cities throughout Northeast China.

The ambition of Li Xuewu and the Northeast Industrial Corporation of Honggang Group, which he promoted and prepared to establish, can be seen from the name of the company.

His advice to Liaodong Industry and Beijing Chemical Industry was similar: don't think that just because Liaodong has the best light and heavy industrial resources in the country, it can do everything.

The reality is that we need to benchmark against the international market, as we lag behind our international counterparts in both productivity and technological innovation.

Resource integration must be matched with technological innovation, which is also the second point Li Xuewu raised at the meeting. The chemical industry also needs technological innovation.

He specifically mentioned the academic transformation viewpoint that Yu Han had discussed with him yesterday, which was also the topic of discussion among everyone at the dinner table.

"The most valuable asset of Liaodong industry, and indeed of all systems in Liaodong, is not its strong industrial base or economic strength, but its educational resources."

Li Xuewu's seat was in the conference room, one of the most prominent seats on the conference table. Many of the attendees were outstanding figures from Liaodong Industry.

A 24-year-old can sit next to Deputy Director Lu and talk fluently, while those who are middle-aged can only sit against the wall.

This difference manifests psychologically, naturally leading to a meticulous, word-by-word analysis and critique of Li Xuewu's opinions.

But as Li Xuewu delved deeper into the subject, the critical mindset vanished, replaced by surprise and conviction.

He can always explain complex theories in the simplest and most concise language, and even explain how to operate them.

Not only were they, the pillars of the industry, taking notes diligently, but even Deputy Director Lu, sitting next to the young man, was doing so.

"Liaodong has very strong science and engineering programs!"

Li Xuewu pointed and emphasized, "You have Bincheng Institute of Technology, as you all know, it's a key engineering college for heavy industry and national defense."

"I don't believe you can find a reason to deny technological innovation."

He said very seriously, "Think about how fortunate you are to have the resources you have. You have a medical university to conduct medical research."

“For those of you in the coal industry, you have Fuxin Coal Mining College.”

Honggang Group's achievements in academic research transformation are truly remarkable, as everyone present knows.

Because Honggang Group had already set an example for them in Liaodong, after pooling capital to establish United Energy Development Corporation, Honggang Group began in-depth cooperation with Fuxin Coal Mining College under the name of United Energy.

In the early years, almost all of the college's graduates were snapped up by United Energy. During those years when the economy was bad and other companies avoided college graduates like the plague, United Energy accepted all comers.

What new thinking, what new ideas? All the stuff they came up with after joining Honggang Group was child's play.

Only after witnessing the technological strength demonstrated by Honggang Group and its bold approach to technological and industrial transformation did they truly realize the vast gap between what they learned in school and real-world production work.

Li Xuewu dared to speak so boldly in front of so many outstanding figures in Liaodong's industry because he possessed absolute practical and theoretical experience.

"When you decide to develop the chemical industry, have you considered Fengcheng Chemical Engineering College?" He looked at both sides of the meeting and slowly nodded as he spoke: "Honggang Group, due to the pressure of technological innovation, spent a huge amount of money to establish its own research institute and create a joint education system."

"You don't need to; you can enjoy the resources that are already available."

Li Xuewu looked at Lu Qiming and Hu Ke and said, "Northeast China has abundant resources of high school students. Could we conduct targeted enrollment for their training?"

Without waiting for the two to think or react, he looked at Beijing Chemical Industry and said, "You also have resources from the School of Chemical Engineering in Beijing and have experience in cooperation. Have you ever thought about providing a special fund and a quota for targeted recruitment?"

"Be bolder; developing science and technology is never wrong."

He looked at the others present and said, "The core competitiveness of Honggang Group will never be the products we are currently producing; those are the most outdated."

Upon hearing this, everyone present turned to look, some of whom were able to follow his train of thought and understand what he was saying.

Some people can't keep up with his thinking, they only half understand, and their eyes are full of confusion.

"The most advanced technologies are always in the minds of researchers."

Li Xuewu tapped his head with his index finger and emphasized, "Only technologies that don't yet exist in the world, technologies that are still in the conceptual and experimental stages, are the most advanced."

"Honggang Group's core competitiveness lies in technological innovation."

Do you believe my point of view?

He spoke in a relaxed tone about the question that everyone present most wanted to understand, and asked with a touch of humor, "Does anyone know about our drone project?"

Hehehe—

Those familiar with Honggang Group were already laughing out loud.

Lu Qiming and Hu Ke didn't laugh, nor did the people from Beijing Chemical, because they had a deeper understanding of Honggang Group than the others.

Just like understanding Li Xuewu, or rather, understanding Li Xuewu's character will reveal the true nature of Honggang Group.

Don't think that the trade fair that Honggang Group held in September this year was the only thing they had done. Just based on their limited knowledge, there were many things that didn't even appear at the trade fair.

The waters of Honggang Group run far deeper than what people see. Just like Li Xuewu, you should never believe everything this young man says.

You said we shouldn't believe everything, but how much of what he says can we believe?

It's hard to say. Sometimes you can believe nine out of ten words, and sometimes you can't even trust the punctuation marks.

Just like in today's meeting, everyone was taking notes on what he said, but how much of it was truly insightful and practical?

Furthermore, how many of the people present today will actually be able to put his theory into practice and achieve results?

Don't they understand the principles Li Xuewu is talking about?

It's easy to understand: companies invest money to collaborate with universities on technology research and development, and universities then transfer the technology to companies for production and development.

This mutually supportive model can not only cultivate more and better students, but also bring a continuous stream of technological innovation capabilities to enterprises.

But it's easier said than done.

Scientific research requires money and equipment. Who has the strength and courage to invest large sums of money in scientific research like Honggang Group?

Let's listen to what Li Xuewu says—

“When I mention our drone project, nine out of ten people laugh.” Li Xuewu faced the laughter with composure, and he said with a smile, “Not only do you laugh, but there are also constant disputes within our group.”

He looked at Lu Qiming and the others, and said with a smile, "Some time ago, when we were holding a meeting of the management committee, some comrades were still asking whether the drone project was reliable. Even if we throw away hundreds of millions of yuan, we still have to hear some news."

Hehehe—

Li Xuewu's words made everyone laugh even more relaxed.

"The person in charge of the drone project at our group's research institute is a young woman, not much older than me."

He introduced her so bluntly: "America is back. She's a top student in aerodynamics and physics. Her whole family is involved in aircraft research. She's very young and very capable."

"I'm not bragging to you."

Li Xuewu pointed at the conference table and said, "I probably know more about aerodynamics than all of you, more about physics than most of you, and more about aircraft research than all of you combined. Believe it or not."

"Hahahaha—" The crowd clearly believed it, but also didn't.

Li Xuewu didn't care and chuckled as he continued, "When I was working in Beijing, I asked her to be my teacher and learned this kind of knowledge from her, because I was the one who came up with this drone project."

He nodded slowly and explained, "Back then, I pulled along Director Bao Peigang of the Dongcheng Credit Union. He's now the deputy director of the Credit Union Headquarters."

Li Xuewu gave a brief introduction, paused for a moment, and then continued, "I persuaded him to invest in our group's motorcycle project and car project, as well as the Tundra military vehicle that was recently launched on the market."

"The best investment he made with me, as you all know, is the United Savings Bank, which is also attending today's meeting."

After he finished speaking, the laughter of the people present disappeared, and their relaxed expressions were replaced by surprise and astonishment.

"Director Bao Peigang, because of these projects, is now in charge of investment work at the head office, but we've fallen out."

Hehehe—

His humorous remarks lightened the atmosphere in the room, and even the laughter of the crowd turned into envy and approval.

Of course, no one believed his nonsense, or rather, they didn't believe that Li Xuewu could help Bao Peigang so much that the other party would break up with him.

Little did they know, Li Xuewu was telling the truth.

"Although Director Bao is ignoring me now, he still readily and firmly invested in the drone project when I asked him to."

Li Xuewu nodded slowly and said, "Dongcheng Credit Union invested five million in this project, and later added several million more."

Jokes aren't appealing; numbers are.

The millions he casually mentioned were considered an overwhelming figure by those present.

Yes, any one of the factories they control is worth millions, but those are fixed assets and cannot be used as working capital.

The investment funds Li Xuewu mentioned are funds that need to be invested at any time; how many of them can do that?

Lu Qiming and Hu Ke could do it, but do they have the same courage as Bao Peigang? Are they as crazy as Li Xuewu?

"The drone project has been underway for almost three years now."

Li Xuewu sniffed and said with a smile, "Our young project manager told me that it can't fly yet."

"Hahaha—" Everyone laughed when they thought of this outcome, their laughter filled with teasing and sarcasm.

Li Xuewu raised an eyebrow and said, "She had originally asked me to give up on this project, but I refused."

He looked at Lu Qiming and said, "I didn't try to persuade her or encourage her. Instead, I applied to our General Manager Li for an additional 100 million yuan in funding."

Depend on--

Those who heard this stopped laughing. They looked at Li Xuewu with some surprise, wondering what he meant by saying that.

What's the point of Li Xuewu teasing them like he's walking a dog?

"Fortunately, I persisted at the time, and Ms. Li trusted me." He said casually, "She called me the day before I came to Fengcheng, and she was very happy, saying that I was flying."

boom--

The atmosphere in the conference room instantly became lively. Everyone sat up straight, looking at him in disbelief, trying to determine the truth of the news.

They weren't aircraft engineers, nor were they experts in dynamics or physics like Li Xuewu, who were just spouting off, but they had studied Chinese.

Drones don't count if a person is sitting on them, right?

If we take it literally, then this technology is like a cow flying in an airplane—it's incredibly awesome!

“I was also very happy and asked her how high she could fly.”

Li Xuewu is definitely a master storyteller. He doesn't laugh when others laugh, and he remains calm when others are surprised. He simply continues his story: "She told me it was several stories high."

It was a joke, but no one laughed except Li Xuewu.

The colleagues from the United Savings Bank sitting at the conference table also smiled, because they were also an investor in the drone project.

"Several stories high is not our ideal goal."

Li Xuewu nodded seriously and emphasized, "She told me that this is the height limited by technology, but it is definitely not their height."

“I said okay, you can be proud, and I’m proud of you too, but now is not the time to be proud. When will you be proud?”

He paused here, and after everyone thought for a moment, he continued, "When our drones can aim at the enemy's face from the sky and fire, when our drones can bypass the enemy's defenses and accurately lock onto targets, when the enemy is afraid, then we can be proud."

A moment of silence fell; the meeting room seemed to have been vacuumed.

But soon, for no apparent reason, and no one even bothered to check how many seconds it lasted, a burst of enthusiastic applause erupted.

"This is not a victory for the decision-making of the Honggang Group's management, nor is it a victory for my personal persistence, but a victory for scientific and technological innovation."

Li Xuewu looked at Lu Qiming and Hu Ke and said, "If you don't put chemical education resources to use and make up for this shortcoming, the chemical integration discussed at today's meeting will be just a flash in the pan."
