Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

After reporting his ideas to the senior leader, Yang Jianguo awaited his reply.

Before submitting this report, he gave four consecutive days of presentations.

The purpose was to make the higher-ups clearly understand the seriousness of the matter.

This time, he will probably have to go to the capital again to report.

"I understand the situation and the seriousness of the problem." The senior leader glanced at Yang Jianguo, his eyes filled with satisfaction.

"Jianguo! Get ready. Don't go anywhere for the next two days. Just wait here."

Upon hearing this from the high-ranking leader, Yang Jianguo knew that the matter was almost certainly true.

He's going to the capital now not only to explain the issue of converting public funds into private ones.

At the same time, we also need to talk about other issues.

Being able to reduce some of the losses along the way of reform is a blessing for both the country and its people.

At the same time, it is also necessary to make those above aware of the importance of contracts.

Yang Jianguo had previously called Jiangdao, asking Lou Xiao'e to help find a few ethical and law-abiding lawyers to come to the mainland.

Besides having a bottom line, the most important requirement for candidates is to have experience in handling cases.

To be more specific, candidates should be those who have worked at the grassroots level and witnessed the multifaceted nature of the law.

Those who hold high positions but only know how to talk the talk are unnecessary.

From the very beginning, he wanted to build a strong legal department for Loongson capable of handling any complex situation and understanding international law.

Because, in addition to the computer service company, they also reached another cooperation agreement.

Loongson will transform the technologies and research projects held within the Academy of Sciences into real value, making them practical.

Simply put, it's about both exporting and domestic sales.

Turn the technologies and patents held by the Academy of Sciences into money.

It sounds a bit cliché, but the things that can be done are anything but.

The Chinese Academy of Sciences possesses a wealth of technologies, including the optical technology that Yang Jianguo desired, which it also has a certain foundation in.

During this period, the Academy of Sciences was not lagging behind others in its research on optics.

This was something Yang Jianguo hadn't known or expected before.

However, due to the inability to achieve mass production, the amount of capital invested over the years has been substantial.

There isn't much practical market demand for it, so continuing research and development would be counterproductive.

When Yang Jianguo learned about it, the Chinese Academy of Sciences was planning to stop the project and put it on hold.

'Buying is worse than making, it's a recipe for disaster!' Yang Jianguo sighed to himself.

Fortunately, these projects that were originally planned to be discontinued were temporarily closed and preserved thanks to his firm support.

Once the funding is approved next year, he plans to take these projects and technologies with him.

Nobody cares, but I do!

In addition, Yang Jianguo was also doing something else: reporting his extra income to the organization.

Yang Jianguo reported the full amount of the dividends Li Aimin gave him and made a suggestion.

He wants to use this money to develop Loongson.

The proposal was well-intentioned, but as Yang Jianguo said before, there are no trivial matters in the capital.

Whether it will work out or not, we don't know yet.

Anyway, Yang Jianguo had already said that he would exchange his foreign exchange within the ministry from now on.

Upon learning this good news, the top leader immediately approved a 1:10 exchange for him.

Although they have fewer channels than Li Aimin, it's not a big deal.

The hidden benefits of exchanging foreign exchange within the ministry far outweigh the 0.8% commission rate.

When he got home, Yang Jianguo put his bag on the ground, greeted Yingzi, and sat down at his desk.

Seeing him like this, Yingzi wanted to ask but held back.

She knew that if she pressed him for details, her man might not be able to keep quiet.

I had to say a few words to myself to put her at ease.

But it can be something that breaks the rules or violates principles.

Would Yingzi be willing to let him do it?

So even though he's been incredibly busy lately, Yingzi has countless questions in her mind.

But whenever she wanted to speak, she held back.

However, she's finally made it to the end today.

Yang Jianguo only spent half an hour rummaging through his things at his desk before packing up his bag.

When we finished eating, I said to her, "Let's go for a walk outside after we finish eating."

"I've heard that Sanlitun is getting more and more beautiful, but we haven't been there yet!"

I live in Beijing, but I've never been to Sanlitun.

Yang Jianguo felt that he was a fake Beijinger.

If you tell anyone about it, they probably won't believe you at all.

These days, who hasn't been to Sanlitun?

That place is now a hub for foreigners, with all sorts of beautiful apartment buildings built there, all for the use of foreign diplomatic personnel stationed in the country.

With a large population comes demand, leading to the emergence of various Western restaurants, shopping malls, and activity centers for gatherings.

Bar is a relatively new term; not many people know what it is these days.

Yang Jianguo wasn't taking Yingzi to Sanlitun because he wanted to go to a bar.

He went there for the people in the bar and to help Yingzi relax.

He manages to balance work and life, given that he currently holds multiple positions.

Whether he felt guilty or not, this was all he could do.

Chapter 360 Equality, Photovoltaic Slicer

Sanlitun is located in the mid-western part of Chaoyang District and is named after its distance of three miles from the inner city.

In 1962, it was designated as the northern embassy district. In the 1970s, a cluster of diplomatic apartments was built, which gradually developed into a gathering place for diplomatic personnel.

The area is well-organized with 10 vertical and 12 horizontal streets and alleys. The Friendship Shopping Mall, the Foreign Exchange Duty-Free Shop, and the City Hotel primarily cater to foreign visitors.

In the streets and alleys, people and cars of all kinds honked their horns, trying to drive away pedestrians who were blocking the road.

The most common thing you see on cars is the various small flags hanging on the hood.

There were also foreigners in suits and ties in each store, exuding 'rules and style'.

Regardless of whether a person is faking it or genuinely possesses good manners.

Anyway, at this moment, it makes people feel a little envious, and also a little ashamed.

It has only been a few years since the founding of the nation, after experiencing several upheavals.

How to fill one's stomach and live a stable life is already a lifelong challenge.

In ordinary households, who has the time or inclination to care about such things?

Besides, it's a movement that has been distorted by those with ulterior motives.

All the old rules and regulations are set as "old rules that must be overthrown," so who dares to follow them, and who can follow them?

Have you not seen how many old scholars have become stinking intellectuals, and how many bones of those who vomited blood and died unjustly are buried in the mountains and valleys of various places?

"His methodical manner is quite interesting."

“Our old rules were much more complex than these… People always yearn for what they don’t have.”

The rich yearn for the authenticity of the poor, the poor yearn for the extravagance of the rich, and officials yearn for the carefree and unrestrained speech of others.

On the contrary, the masses envied the power and prestige of the officials.

Children envy adults' ability to do whatever they want and their lack of discipline.

Adults envy children's innocence and carefree nature.

Cyclists envy Volkswagens, Volkswagens envy Mercedes-Benzes, but Mercedes-Benzes envy cyclists...

"So, according to you, no one in this world lives a happy life?" Yingzi asked, amused.

Looking at her bright smile and the faint lines around her eyebrows and mouth, Yang Jianguo smiled and said, "Contentment brings happiness, and those who are capable find peace."

I took Yingzi into the coffee shop, where a waiter greeted us with a fake smile.

His unconsciously furrowed brows conveyed his inner resistance and disdain.

Good afternoon. Can I help you?

I have an appointment with Mr. Jordan Andrew. I think he has arrived.

Yang Jianguo's standard accent surprised Waiter.

Looking at the other person's attire, they were not like the usual people who came in and out of the store, dressed in suits and trying to appear as Western gentlemen.

It was just simple workwear: polyester pants and a pair of old-fashioned chunky shoes.

This kind of attire is considered very good in China, but it's a stark contrast to the clients he usually serves.

However, considering the other party's standard pronunciation and accent, the waiter's attitude was still a bit more enthusiastic, "Please wait a moment."

Leading the two to the central hall, Waiter walked to the window where the curtains were drawn.

A moment later, a face that was both strange and familiar stood up and waved enthusiastically to Yang Jianguo: "Hey, Yang~"

Yang Jianguo found the slurred accent, with its twists and turns, extremely unpleasant to hear.

So as soon as he sat down, Yang Jianguo took the initiative to talk to him in a foreign language.

Listening to his slurred accent, he was afraid he'd be led astray himself.

"Thank you for your understanding. The languages ​​in the inland areas are really too complicated. I never thought that learning a language would be so difficult."

Andrew breathed a sigh of relief; he really wanted to leave a good impression on Yang.

Because he really wanted to get his hands on Dongxi.

“Andrew, a nation can survive for thousands of years, and the complexity of its culture is inevitable. If you can persevere, I guarantee you will benefit greatly.”

Yang Jianguo was neither arrogant nor obsequious.

In his view, the conversation between the two parties should always be on an equal footing.

He neither overestimates nor belittles the other party without reason.

The atmosphere in China is still relatively good; most foreigners don't, and dare not, act superior or superior.

Especially those foreigners who experienced the past ten years and the period between then and now.

The reason why, in just a few years, a situation arose where foreigners were considered to have special privileges.

It's nothing more than their own family members praising them.

A group of people came up, knelt down with a thud, and insisted on being treated as ancestors.

Who could say no?!

Let alone now, there will be no shortage of such foreign lackeys even in 2022.

I can’t figure it out, I really can’t figure it out!

The meeting with Andrew was about technology transfer.

Yang Jianguo not only served as an advisor to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, but Loongson also blocked the Academy's efforts to export its technology and patents.

Therefore, I will inevitably have to deal with foreigners in the future.
