Siheyuan diet for men and women

Chapter 1267 This thing hurts when it hits you
"What did you watch this morning?"

At 12 noon, the visiting and inspection groups returned to the small restaurant of the Metallurgical Plant Guesthouse for lunch.

Only Li Xuewu's group was late.

At half past twelve, many people had finished their lunch and went upstairs to rest, and only then did they walk into the hall exhausted.

Not only did this group come back late, but Art and others' leather shoes and trouser legs were covered in dust and grass clippings.

It didn't look like a factory visit, but more like a mountain hike.

A foreign businessman who was more familiar with Art asked curiously, "Did you go to see the construction site?"

They were also wondering why they went to the construction site when they could just look at the industrial production capacity.

What's so good about that thing?

"You'll never guess what we saw—"

Art pinched his fingers exaggeratedly and sighed: "It broke my stereotyped understanding of civilian hardware and completely confused me."

"Forget it, let's eat first."

Without waiting for the confused other party to ask again, the shocked expression on Art's face still did not dissipate. He shook his head slightly and went to the restaurant.

"What did you see?"

The foreign businessman stood there curiously, looking at the backs of Art and others, feeling uncomfortable as if he had been scratched by a cat.

They knew very well what Art did. If they made associations, would they have seen something big and powerful?

But if you say that Art doesn't do small business of rifles, he is not arrogant enough to do big business like fried eggs!

Along the way, some people noticed the strange behavior of Art and others, but they couldn't find out the reason.

The more shocking Art's performance was, the more he could attract these people's hearts.

So much so that the rumor was distorted later, saying that the Red Star Factory showed them newly developed secret ground-to-ground and ground-to-air weapons that were ready for export.

Some people don't believe it. Art has the capital and the courage, but he does not have the ability in the weapons market.

Another thing is that they don’t believe that Red Star Factory is crazy enough to dare to export this thing.

But there are also people who believe that if Art can even buy this thing, it means that the Red Star Factory lacks technology and equipment, and anything can be negotiated.

It’s awesome!

From the morning's visit, we learned that the industrial development resources that Red Star Factory possesses in Gangcheng and Yingcheng are still very strong.

Although there are large industrial and mining enterprises in the local area, there are no similar group-type industrial enterprises.

Even in Liaodong Province, there is no such trust enterprise that spans several industries and operates across the upstream and downstream steel industries.

Therefore, the spirit of cooperation has come alive, and the confidence in deepening cooperation has also come alive.

"Mr. Li, your kind of cannon..."

"Hey! What kind of gun do we have?"

There were no outsiders at Art's table. They were all good friends who had visited in the morning, and he was eager to talk.

But Li Xuewu disagreed with his words and reminded him calmly: "Our metallurgical industry and steel rolling industry are relatively complete."

"You want to buy civilian gas tanks and drainage pipes. This business is still negotiable."

“Yes, yes, yes—”

Art nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice and said, "I just want to buy a gas tank and a drainage pipe!"

"In order to enable every household in our area to use gas stoves and improve the underground drainage system, I must import these civilian hardware."

Well, I tested a 10-liter gas tank this morning and the explosion power was equivalent to 150 kilograms of TNT.

It is also equivalent to 3000 grenades.

The location of the shelling looked like an abandoned brick mountain temple through the telescope. When the smoke and dust cleared, the mountain god was nowhere to be seen, and the temple was gone anyway.

In fact, the shooting accuracy and range of the gas tank cannon are average.

But you can't help but think that the cost of this thing is average.

A gas tank costs 50 dollars, a section of drainage pipe costs 300 dollars, plus raw materials such as steel plates and explosives, it will cost more than 200 dollars.

But its effectiveness and concealment are much stronger than the 200mm cannon.

His clients are not all wealthy businessmen, nor are they necessarily wealthy organizations. If they can import "suitable" assembly materials from the Red Star Factory, and weld and install them according to the drawings after landing, they can be used...

hiss--

Then why are you selling heavy mortars? Aren’t they just land-based house demolishers?

It’s true that Li Xuewu’s service is very humane. Furniture can be produced in assembled parts. Who requires gas tanks and drainage pipes to be shipped complete?
He had designed the tail wing for the other party, and even prepared the assembly drawings, electric welding machine, ballistic ruler, and instruction manual.

There are three languages: English, French and Spanish. There is always one that suits you.

The Red Star Factory cannot directly export house demolitions machines, and international shipping is also prohibited from transporting such heavy weapons.

But no port will refuse a shipload of gas tanks, and no port will refuse a drainage pipe.

Art's eyes were bright, as if he had opened the door to a new world.

He vowed to shock the whole world in one fell swoop and get the title of the most awesome civilian hardware trader!

"Take your time, don't rush, there are plenty of good things."

Li Xuewu smiled and knocked on the table, then raised his glass and gestured for everyone to toast to their cooperation and the future.

After seeing what firepower is, Art's friends were completely convinced and raised their glasses and shouted "Cheers!"

The attention of the entire cafeteria was drawn to them. Among the ten groups, theirs was the most lively and the atmosphere was the most cheerful.
-

"What kind of car is this? It's so weird."

On the afternoon of the 28th, Li Xuewu led the team again, and Art and his team were still in the same group. After having a full lunch and a good nap, they set off.

Some people were curious and wanted to transfer to his group, but were told that it was full.

What the hell is the place full? Just say you won’t take them with you.

In fact, it was not like that. Li Xuewu didn't really do anything fancy in the afternoon. He just showed Art and the others things that were very directional.

The convoy came directly to the automobile manufacturing plant, passed by other groups that came here for a visit, and entered the experimental plant area.

As soon as he got off the car, Art was startled by the big guy in front of him.

Looking more closely, it seems that the design of the model car has not been completed yet and it is still in the testing stage.

"Red Star Factory's new project is a smooth journey."

Li Xuewu introduced calmly: "Would you like to give it a try?"

"But this... can this car be driven?"

Art was still a little confused. This car seemed to be just an empty shell. The engine and control system were not missing, but...

"It looks weird—"

That’s right, even his friends said it was weird.

However, no matter how strange this car was, with the gas tank explosion in the morning as a basis, these people did not dare to make random guesses and all believed that there was something wrong with this car.

"Of course it can be opened, although it has not yet been put into mass production."

Li Xuewu is also a boaster who does not pay taxes. He directly deceived people into thinking that the concept car he made has not yet been mass-produced. There is a huge gap here.

He ignored Art's hesitation, stepped on the thick steel pedal and jumped into the car. He turned the ignition and heard a series of rumbling sounds.

"Diesel engine!"

You can tell it apart without listening carefully. If you still can't hear it, you can smell the black smoke and odor rising from the back of the car.

"This is a big monster, and a gasoline engine can't power it."

Li Xuewu smiled domineeringly, and without waiting for Art to sit down, he stepped on the accelerator to the bottom. The engine roared and rushed out with the two of them.

You can look around the Red Star Factory, you won't find any factory leader as wild as him. To be more precise, no cadre above the deputy department level drives himself, let alone drives like this. He is risking his life!
The experimental area is all off-road, with not only sand pits, but also water pits, sharp stone pits and nail board pits. Anyway, all kinds of extreme things are done just to test the passability of this car.

The hand-made prototype car is really awesome, especially the use of CNC machine tools to process various supporting parts at any cost. The effect is also very impressive. This monster car makes Art, who is sitting in the passenger seat, very excited.

If Art was a girl, I would say: You are so bad~ I like you so much~
"Good! Good! Really damn good!"

creak-

Li Xuewu slammed on the brakes and Art almost rushed out of the car without a windshield, thanks to the fact that he held on to the steel pipe handrail tightly.

What you can see about this car is simplicity to the extreme.

There is no unnecessary luxury or comfort, but without these, the off-road performance and military vehicle performance are all exposed.

The car had no difficulty crossing the 1.5-meter-deep puddle. Both of their pants were soaked, but their hearts were burning with excitement.

Seeing Art's miserable condition, his friends didn't find it funny at all and wanted to try the car one after another.

What's the big deal if your pants get wet? The key is to understand the performance of this car.

Who said arms dealers don’t sell cars?

A good military vehicle is also a weapon!

"Wairygood——"

Art shouted excitedly, and when he jumped out of the car, he could still feel the cool wind on his butt.

It is not warm at all in Northeast China at the end of March. Even though the sun is strong in the afternoon, it cannot withstand the spring breeze at this time.

What is most important to a man?

The crotch is the most important part, so the two men did not hesitate at all and hurried back to the car to change clothes under the guidance of the security personnel.

Art then asked why Li Xuewu had reminded them after lunch to bring a set of clean clothes for the afternoon, from head to toe.

At first he thought Li Xuewu was going to take them swimming, but he didn't expect it was winter swimming. Danzi was so frozen that he had to go back.

"Exciting, really exciting!"

If it wasn't so cold, Art would never give up the opportunity to drive the car again. He even felt his thighs were numb from the cold.

The winter at this time is colder than that in later generations. In later generations, people could wear short sleeves at the end of March, but wearing short sleeves now will freeze you to death.

"That's you, Art—"

Li Xuewu sat on a chair and put on his cotton pants, curling his lips and saying, "If someone else comes, I won't let him see this car."

“This is a secret project of our factory.”

As he put on his clothes, he introduced: "It's not that this car has any dangerous secrets, but it is an important business secret."

"I know. I know what you mean."

Art was very afraid of the cold. He was freezing cold in his military coat, but he still watched his friends driving the car with envy and screaming.

They are all young men, all in the business of killing people. They only like three things in their lives: cars, guns, and women.

"If it were my hometown, I would trade a hundred women for your car, or even two hundred."

"Stop bragging!"

Li Xuewu glanced at him and said, "The women in your hometown are all gold-rimmed. You want to exchange my car for 200?"

"Are you comparing it to the antelope in our factory?"

"No, no, no, there is absolutely no comparison."

Art shook his head repeatedly, agreeing with Li Xuewu's words. He looked at the distance with envy and said, "Ten Antelopes are not worth a car like this."

"Hey! You're right, ten Gazelles are not worth this one!"

Li Xuewu put on his clothes and new leather shoes, stood up, rubbed his hands and said, "It will be at least this number after mass production."

"Eighty thousand yuan? RMB?"

Art raised his eyebrows, nodded and said, "It's worth it, very worth it."

The twelve automotive industrial systems including transmission, steering, braking, etc. are worth 80,000 yuan, not to mention the solidly crafted body structure.

"There is absolutely no problem mounting a heavy machine gun on this vehicle."

"What the hell? A heavy machine gun?"

Li Xuewu glanced at him with dissatisfaction, dodged his feet, and pointed to the experimental workshop, signaling him to follow him.

The security officers opened the door in advance, allowing Art to see a shocking scene.

It was the same military vehicle that Li Xuewu mentioned, called Tantu, but its appearance had changed. It was no longer the bare frame vehicle that had just been experimented with.

There is indeed a heavy machine gun on the roof, but what is installed at the back?
"Type 63 107mm light towed rocket launcher, you must have heard of it."

Li Xuewu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Katyusha is very useful, 107 is also very useful, I will take you to try it when there is a chance."

"Doesn't the 107 use a bracket?"

Art was a little confused, pointed to the back seat of the car, and asked, "Can it be mounted on the car and used stably?"

"Steady, very stable—"

Li Xuewu patted his arm and said, "If you can reach an agreement with Mr. Ji, we will install the parking brake for you for free on the cars we sell."

Shit, how much does a fixed position cost? Li Xuewu said a car costs 80,000 yuan, but who knows how much he would sell it for.

"The biggest advantage of the Tundra, and the core of its design, is modularity."

Li Xuewu pointed to a row of Tundra prototypes parked in the experimental workshop, each of which had different assembly effects.

"The squad troop carrier, including individual equipment, can easily carry eight people," he pointed to each location and introduced them to Art. "The logistics supply vehicle can load the kitchen squad's equipment."

"Command vehicle, assault vehicle, heavy machine gun, light machine gun, desert version, snow version, jungle version..."

The more Li Xuewu introduced, the more Art's eyes were not enough. He asked woodenly: "Mr. Li, I don't understand what you mean..."

He asked hesitantly, "I don't think I'm the most suitable trading partner for these treasures of yours."

"Don't underestimate yourself—"

Li Xuewu smiled and patted his arm, saying, "Without the chicken, there is no egg. At present, this car is still overcoming some design loopholes and making preparations for final mass production, including conducting extreme experiments, finding out the shortcomings of modularization, and making final design supplements, etc."

He is an expert in painting pie-in-the-sky paintings, as famous as Qi Baishi, Xu Beihong and other art masters. When it comes to fooling Art, he is like a sow putting on a bra, with one trick after another.

"As you know, we lack opportunities for complex battlefield practice. We would like to discuss cooperation opportunities in this area with you, our time-tested partner."

"No problem, absolutely no problem!"

Art could already guess the purpose of Li Xuewu showing him the car, wasn't it just to get him to help promote the product and brag about it?

When the time comes, we will find a suitable battlefield to deploy this modular fleet, and infiltrate the battlefield in the form of a special team or commando.

If the 107 can really be equipped to the company and platoon level and can be motorized, the power of this team will be enormous.

No one can resist this standard vehicle for the combined battalion, which will definitely be a powerful weapon for future light infantry.

No wonder Li Xuewu said it was the secret weapon of the Red Star Factory. Once it is mass-produced, it will inevitably change the battlefield pattern of small-scale conflicts.

"You have to give us priority," Art said with a smile, "As long as it can be mass-produced, I will order 100 units first, and there will be no more when the time comes!"

"Okay, okay, we'll talk about it then."

Li Xuewu smiled as he watched the fish take the bait, nodded, gestured to the door and said, "They should be almost done testing the car, let's go out."

Giving the Tantuliang to Art was to hold on to this big fish, so that he would want to come back next year, continue to increase the order volume for weapons, and cultivate a group of loyal users of cheap weapons and cars in his trading area.

As long as those people become famous, the Red Star Factory will have no worries about lack of corresponding orders for cars and weapons.

Automobiles and weapons can be exported, and the hardware industry, electronics industry, food industry, etc. are all included in the export.

This is Li Xuewu’s layout for industrial exports. He can satisfy whatever customers want and provide added value.

Don't underestimate small guys like Art. There are not many big orders in the international arms market. It's all small flies like him flying around.

But when there are too many flies, it can form a situation of dark cloud pressing down on the sky.

In the absence of brand influence and trading base, commodity chain export is the easiest way.

When export products have a certain influence, they will inevitably stimulate the domestic trade economy, such as the Tundra automobile that Li Xuewu attaches particular importance to.

It is related to another layout of Red Star Automobile in refining the military vehicle market.

This includes the luxury and comfort Land Cruiser which is currently under development and is based on the same platform as the Tundra. Both vehicles are competing in the military market with a 212-tonne power.

After crushing the military market, the civilian market will also be driven by the continuous updating of Red Star Antelope, pushing the development of high-quality cars forward.

212 is too ambitious and will definitely not be able to compete with the several off-road vehicle brands that Red Star Factory has developed after it segmented the market.

After getting rid of 212, the Red Star Automobile Factory was ready to face the shock wave of imported cars from the open market.

This is how the Type 66-6 sniper rifle became famous.

Why is the domestic trade orders for this sniper rifle growing in a step-by-step manner now?
The reason is very simple. When the monkeys were fighting in the jungle, this thing didn't work very well. It was also the monkeys' fault that they didn't know how to use it, and they didn't use it correctly.

But Ji Weidong was responsible for tracking Art's sales area, and the response was good.

The quality of the Type 66-6 sniper rifle is even more durable than the Russian original.

The reason is that the Red Star Factory is willing to use more materials and is more focused on making it with care.

The gun body structure and materials have been improved and upgraded on the original basis. Like other first products, it focuses on volume rather than price, and is easy to use and affordable.

While SVD has not yet been fully deployed in the international market, the Type 66-6 has already begun to be snapped up in a fierce competition.

Art bought too much last time, so he has some inventory, and he doesn’t want to put more money into it this time.

But his friends were reluctant to part with this nugget of gold, and before they even sat down at the negotiation table, they had already started discussing the quantity of the order.

Since they trusted the Type 66-6, they had confidence in other weapons, and they never considered that it would take an unknown amount of time for the Tantu to go into mass production.

After returning, they would definitely brag to the Red Star Factory about how awesome a diesel car they had made in the steel city in the mainland.

Do you want a 107 launcher mounted on a frame machine off-road vehicle?

I heard that this thing hurts a lot when it hits your body.
-

"Start contact now?"

Li Xuewu finished his dinner and was walking slowly towards the meeting room, but Fan Hua reminded him softly and he had to speed up his pace.

The direction of travel also changed, going downstairs and heading towards the auxiliary building.

As usual, there are summary meetings and seminars every night, but he cannot attend today's seminar.

At exactly seven o'clock in the evening, Li Xuewu arrived at the general dispatching room of the Liaodong Industrial Leading Group Office, where Dong Wenxue and Gao Yaqin were already waiting.

After arriving here, Dong Wenxue conveyed a task, which was to immediately prepare for contact negotiations with the Santaya Group.

The instructions were transmitted from the Red Star Factory via a secret telegram, and the management committee collectively decided to appoint Gao Yaqin, Dong Wenxue and Li Xuewu as negotiation representatives.

"I don't know the specific situation, but the Santaya Group is very eager and direct. They want to complete the inspection mission as soon as possible and start negotiations."

Gao Yaqin introduced: "In order not to affect the investigation tasks of other members of the investigation team, we have to complete this task within one day tomorrow."

"Is this what the Santaya Group requested?"

Li Xuewu shook his chin and said, "They are too anxious. They are afraid that we will take this opportunity to blackmail them."

"So they were in a hurry and compressed the time to the minimum, so that no one was prepared or had a backup plan, which also reduced their losses."

"That's what I said, but how to do it specifically..."

Dong Wenxue pushed his glasses and said, "This afternoon, Chantal, the president of Santaya Group, proposed to exchange CNC machining technology for construction engineering cooperation."

"Where did the Santaya Group get its CNC processing technology?" Li Xuewu frowned and asked, "From France? Can she make it? It must be fake, right?"

"Germany has given us the data."

Li Xuewu looked at the two of them in surprise, and swept his eyes across the office. On the wall hung a layout map of the Red Star Factory's Liaodong industry. Against the wall was a row of tables and cabinets, piled with technical materials.

Also coming with them was the director of the technical department and some engineers.

Dong Wenxue pointed at the people who were busy with their homework and said, "If the comparison results are different, there will be something to discuss at the negotiation table."

Obviously, the director of the technical department personally took the lead in leading the engineers to mark the technical parameter comparison between Japan and Germany with red and blue pencils on the spread-out CNC machine tool drawings.

Since the Santaya Group wants to use CNC technology to make a deal, it should at least state the necessity of the technology provided by the other party at the negotiation table.

Based on the CNC machining center that had been secretly acquired, the Red Star Factory had designed and produced a batch of CNC machine tools in more than half a year.

Of course, mass production and the establishment of a machining cluster will take some time. We are currently in the experimental production stage and are checking for deficiencies and filling in the gaps.

As long as there is an industrial mother machine, the door to the research and development of CNC lathes has been opened to the Red Star Factory.

Now the popular item thrown by Santaya Group is like a meat bun in the eyes of the other party, but it has no filling in the eyes of Red Star Factory.

It's useless just because the skin looks good. If the comparison proves that the technological gap between Japan and Germany is not that big and they can solve the problem by themselves, then it will be fun.

This was a surprise move that caught the opponent off guard.

Red Star Factory is in no hurry to announce the comparison results. It wants to slap the other party in the face at the negotiation table. By then, the Santaya Group will have to come up with something better.

The initiative in the negotiations fell entirely into the hands of Red Star Factory.

Speaking of being sinister, Li Xuewu feels that Gao Yaqin is more sinister than him. This woman is really not easy to mess with.

He has always been upright, honest and upright, and he is very disdainful of this kind of trick of setting a trap and burying people.

Of course, Gao Yaqin's status is higher than his. Since the leader has decided to set a trap and bury someone, he can only go with the flow.

Alas, I'm afraid I'll tarnish my good reputation this time——

“We made some plans.”

Dong Wenxue handed a document to Li Xuewu and said, "I suspect that the Santaya Group does not simply want the cooperation rights for the construction project."

"Mineral resources?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows slightly. He saw some possible mineral trading targets from the information, which was the mineral information of Liaodong region.

Of course, there is nothing much in Steel City. The most abundant thing is iron ore. However, no matter how much iron ore there is here, it is not as much as in Australia, so it is not worth the Santaya Group's attention.

"Non-ferrous metals, rare non-metallic minerals..."

Don't overestimate Li Xuewu's knowledge. He knows a little bit about automotive engineering because he had planned it long ago and learned about it in advance.

He knew a little about ships because he had engineers to explain them to him.

He knew a little about aircraft because Shangguan Qi often went to his office to make reports and learned some things indirectly.

It would be difficult for you to teach him about geology and minerals.

He knew the Chinese characters and understood the meaning of the mineral resources listed in the data that might be targeted, but when the ore was placed in front of him, he could not recognize any of them.

In his eyes, all minerals have only one name: stone.

“It’s not just that, it’s the technology.”

Dong Wenxue sat there with a frown on his face and said, "Sentaya Group has provided us with a lot of scattered technologies and equipment, and has also basically figured out our technical reserves and the technical features we have mastered."

"That is to say, the Santaya Group wants to export technology in reverse," he explained. "The Santaya Group can import technology from outside to us, or export technology from us to other regions."

Don't belittle yourself and think that all our technology is backward and our productivity is inferior to that of foreign countries.

There is nothing absolute in the world. In fact, there are many domestic technologies that are leading the world. Even because of the special circumstances of the blockade, these technologies have been well protected and the products have become unique.

Otherwise, where does so much industrial product output go every year?

"How can we negotiate directly at the negotiation table without a few rounds of probing?"

Li Xuewu touched the stubble on his chin and felt worried.

While flipping through the information, he shook his head.

His fingertips ran across the words: "Technical cooperation in construction projects can be opened up, some mineral resources can be jointly developed, but standards and systems must be kept in reserve."

On the table on the other side of the table covered with CNC machine tool drawings, there are several gears, and engineers are testing them with a self-developed gear precision tester.

No need to think about it, this is the second pit that has been dug.

With Li Xuewu's experience and thinking, this series of traps is not worth mentioning at all in his eyes. These are just what he left over... ahem, let's not talk about it anymore.

Gao Yaqin glanced at him and asked casually, "Don't you know why the Shengtaya Group is so eager to get on the negotiation table?"

"Hmm? I don't know—" Li Xuewu was stunned for a moment, looked at Gao Yaqin and asked: "Do you know?"

"If I knew, why would I ask you?" Gao Yaqin glanced at Li Xuewu suspiciously and asked, "I thought you knew."

"How should I know?"

Li Xuewu rolled his eyes and said, "I don't understand what you mean. I didn't know it when I came here."

"That day, when we came out of the capital," Gao Yaqin said, looking at Li Xuewu meaningfully and asking, "Didn't you chat for a long time on the deck? Wasn't it about this matter?"

"No? How long?"

Li Xuewu raised his eyebrows at the blank yet curious looks of Dong Wenxue and the others, and said, "We just chatted for a while, talking about the situation of the inspection team."

"Oh, so that's it."

Gao Yaqin responded with disbelief in her eyes, as if she really believed it.

Li Xuewu was too lazy to pay attention to her. Of course he couldn't tell the truth. Do you think Li Xuewu is stupid?

What? How?
Do you want him to say that Ms. Chantal, the president of Santaya Group, asked him for advice on how to make up her mind to divorce to preserve her property, to start a new family with the cheating old man, and to make her husband disgraced and fall into hell forever, with no chance of recovery?

Stop joking. It would be a huge joke if he told it. Who would believe it?

Another thing is, if someone really believed it, he wouldn’t be able to explain it clearly.

Then people will ask, what is your relationship with Chantal? Why do people ask you such private questions?
Just tell me how Li Xuewu should answer.

Should he say that he and Chantal are best friends in private?

After all, persuading people to divorce, instigating infidelity, and covering up the facts are things that only best friends can do.
-

On March 3th, the weather was very good.

At around 9:30, all ten visiting groups set off, but several key leaders of the Red Star Factory were not there.

Of course, some people noticed that Chantal, president of Santaya Group, did not appear in the assembled team.

Where are people? Where have they all gone?
In fact, it’s not far away, it’s right in the foundry workshop of the automobile processing plant.

Dong Wenxue is not here. He has to lead the inspection team. He cannot give up the entire forest for the Santaya Group.

Gao Yaqin accompanied Chantal out of the car, and Li Xuewu's car also arrived.

With the help of safety managers, everyone put on red vests and safety helmets, which is a requirement of the tour process and also a safety management feature of the Red Star Factory.

Even if the king of heaven comes, he has to wear this.

The heads of Gangcheng Industry, the leaders of Gangcheng, and the leaders of Liaodong who came here to conduct research were all shocked and surprised.

The factory's hygiene and safety management surprised them and made them reflect. This alone made the industry in Liaodong surpass that of other industries.

There is a saying in the industrial system: There is no industry without casualties.

But within the entire Red Star Factory system, any accident resulting in casualties is considered a top priority and will be investigated by the safety and supervision systems.

Not only will the workshop director be punished, but also the persons in charge of a line will be punished, so the safety red lines must be reminded of every detail.

Especially when Li Xuewu comes to inspect the grassroots, the cadres below must be more vigilant. He is the person in charge of safety management and the first person to establish the current strict safety management system.

Li Xuewu has a deep obsession with safety management. He picked up the fire extinguisher and took a look at it. He didn't check or inspect it. He just waited to be punished.

He will also look at the production operation specifications and the safety production standardization charts. No matter what business he is looking at, he will pay attention to safety.

So in the past two years, while the Red Star Factory's business has expanded rapidly, the number of workers has doubled, and new industrial factories have been added every year, the number of casualties has shown a sharp downward trend. This is a big sign.

Li Xuewu receives a certificate of merit for safe production every year. This certificate is awarded by the system and is of great value.

Why did no one question his appointment as Secretary-General, and why was there no opposition at all from the middle and grassroots levels of the factory?

It's very simple, the achievements are real and the results are convincing.

Just by regularizing production, I don’t know how much money and production costs will be saved for the Red Star Factory every year.

Small problems piled up will become big troubles, and what Li Xuewu does is to clean up small problems and not give big troubles time and space to accumulate.

The reality is that when Chantal visited the Red Star Factory's automobile factory, she couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.

The entire workshop floor is divided into areas and the paint colors are differentiated.

People are strictly prohibited from passing through the red zone, and only people can walk in the green zone. This is more strictly enforced than zebra crossings on sidewalks.

All production equipment has dangerous points and risk warnings.

There were more safety warning signs than slogans on white paper, which was comparable to the management model of modern factories, and it gave Chantal a shock.

"I've been to your factory in Beijing," she said, looking at Gao Yaqin beside her, "and my impression of it is different from here."

"My impression of the Red Star Factory's Beijing Industrial Zone is that the equipment and environment are old, but the workers are enthusiastic and the management is advanced," Chantal raised her hand to indicate the surrounding production environment and said, "This place has completely changed the gap in equipment and environment. Will all Red Star Factory factories meet this standard in the future?"

"That's the plan for now."

Li Xuewu smiled and said, "Some factories in Beijing are about to face replacement and demolition plans, so we will not invest in equipment and environment."

"You probably haven't been to our tertiary production workshop. The production environment there is of the same standard as here," he said as he walked around. "With better technology and equipment in the future, this standard will be improved."

"As expected, this is a company that can complete the construction of a trust."

Chantal flattered as she walked and looked around and said, "Have the workers' uniforms also been upgraded? They used to be dark blue, right?"

"Yes, dark blue cotton."

Li Xuewu put his hands behind his back and explained with a smile: "It is made of canvas now, mainly for wear resistance and strength to protect the health of workers."

"We actually wanted to use polyester, which is a new type of material that is more breathable and lighter, but it's too expensive."

“Haha, polyester.”

Chantal seemed to have heard some information, she chuckled and didn't continue.

It's not that she looks down on the Red Star Factory, nor does she believe that the mainland does not have the conditions to produce polyester fiber, but there is no need for it now.

The main raw materials of polyester are terephthalic acid (PTA) and ethylene glycol (EG).

These raw materials are esterified to produce polyethylene terephthalate (PET).

The rest are various esterification, prepolymerization reactions and so on. It may sound complicated because of the chemical knowledge involved, but it is actually industrial production and operation.

Three years ago, the mainland's polyester fiber production was 100 tons.

However, the annual incremental production volume is 314%, so it will be slow in the initial stage. However, this material is still valuable in the early stages of industrial development, but it becomes less and less valuable as time goes by, and the internal circulation becomes so crazy.

Unless Red Star Factory develops its business in the chemical industry, there is no need for a steel-based trust group to get involved in this industry.

Then why did Li Xuewu say it out loud?
As for the technique, it could be a bait, or it could be something she really wants, or it could be just to test her bottom line.

We came out to look around during the day today just to test each other so as to prepare for the negotiations that may start at any time.

"The production of red star antelope has been scaled up and normalized..."

Rumbling--

Just as Li Xuewu finished speaking, the overhead crane not far ahead broke down. After a roar, the assembly line shut down.

The power outage is not a big deal. The few minutes the assembly line is stopped can be recovered as long as the shutdown is not long-term.

In order to ensure the smooth operation of the assembly line, all equipment on this line will be checked for faults as soon as they occur, but they will not be repaired.

Why? Because time does not allow, it is much faster to just replace the parts.

Put in a new part and replace the old part to slowly find out what's wrong with it. There's plenty of time to repair and maintain it.

The sudden failure seemed like a loss of face in front of the foreign businessmen, but Gao Yaqin and Li Xuewu remained calm and just stood there watching.

The professional maintenance team came in very quickly. Several young men walked past them carrying a gearbox, clearly showing Chantal and the engineer behind her the accuracy plate of the gearbox.

Chantal curled her lips, glanced at Li Xuewu beside her, then glanced at Gao Yaqin on the other side, her eyes almost rolling back.

Fuck, you are playing me, right?
This overhead crane "malfunction" was just a drill, right?
Are you deliberately showing off your processing accuracy to imply that you already have higher precision processing equipment?
No, man, is it necessary to do this?
Can't we be a little more kind?

"Ahem..." Gao Yaqin coughed lightly, not caring that Chantal had noticed the performance, and asked casually, "I heard that the silicon steel sheets from our factory are very popular in Western Europe?"

Fuck - what does it mean?

Chantal suddenly turned her head and looked at Gao Yaqin.

These women don't look like good people!
