Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

Her decision at the time was correct; she would still dare to say the same thing even if she were to face Yang Jianguo again.

Yang Jianguo remained silent upon hearing her reply.

He lowered his head and blew on the tea leaves floating in his cup, saying leisurely, "...If I don't give you an excuse to explode, who can suppress the anger of tens of thousands of workers in the steel mill?"

Ding~

Zhang Yu's heart skipped a beat, and she looked at him in horror.

Yang Jianguo blew away the tea foam, picked up the cup, and took a sip of hot tea: "Sizzle, ah~"

With a slight upward tilt of his squinting eyelids, Yang Jianguo raised his hand with a half-smile: "Don't just stand there, drink your tea. We can't waste these tea leaves."

Zhang Yu sipped her tea absentmindedly, not tasting anything at all.

Yang Jianguo's reminder made Zhang Yu realize what had happened that day.

Why was Yang Jianguo so reckless, seemingly losing his mind and leading the way in starting a fire? It was completely inconsistent with his usual image.

It turns out he did it on purpose.

If it weren't for his encouragement, which allowed the workers to vent their anger...

If it weren't for my special status, being a comrade and friend of Yang Jianguo, and having Zhang Chao as a connection in between...

If it weren't for his 'fear of the consequences' and his decision to have me taken to the cafeteria to calm down, I would have been fine.

...So it turns out, this was all part of his plan.

First, stir up the anger of the workers so they can vent their frustrations, then use the threat of being "detained" to frighten them and restore their rationality.

Amidst fear, reason, and guilt, a potential conflict is resolved.

As for why it involves a triple psychology, it's actually quite easy to understand.

If Zhang Yu dares to detain even Yang Jianguo, who else wouldn't she dare to detain?

When reason prevails, fear sets in, and anger is vented. Naturally, one will consider all sorts of consequences, making it hard not to be irrational.

Finally, feeling guilty... to stand up for them, Master Yang had them detained in the cafeteria.

Even if nothing happens in the end, from Yang Jianguo's perspective, it's definitely a loss of face and a blow to his reputation.

How can I not feel guilty?!

In addition, there's her own identity: the head of the security team in the special workshop, Yang Jianguo's comrade and friend, and the younger sister of his successor apprentice.

If it were someone else, the workers might have tried to snatch her away, but what about her status?

Didn't you see that Master Yang was "cautious and hesitant" and "held back" by her?

He had considered all the factors, including timing, identity, and psychology.

"Hiss~" Looking at the thick eyebrows, big eyes, and gentle and steady face opposite him, Zhang Yu felt as if she had never seen through him.

"Don't look at me like that, it makes me seem like some kind of cunning person."

Yang Jianguo's joke brought Zhang Yu, who was having a chilling thought, back to reality.

That's right. Over the years, Yang Jianguo's conduct and interpersonal skills have been tested and proven countless times.

Even if the facts are as he thinks, he is trying to avoid conflict and bloodshed.

He was thinking of the bigger picture, and things unfolded exactly as he had predicted.

This not only averted a major armed conflict but also cemented Zhang Yu's formidable reputation both on and off the field.

She was the first and only one to dare to detain even Yang Jianguo.

"Thank you." To this day, Zhang Yu feels she owes him a thank you.

Yang Jianguo nodded without comment, put down his teacup, and said, "The main reason I invited you to work at the Ministry of Works this time is to promote the subsequent reforms."

Security guards and soldiers are two different concepts.

Yang Jianguo dared not speak lightly about what constitutes a qualified soldier.

But the most important thing for a qualified security guard is 'crisis planning'.

If contingency plans are well-made, crises will only exist in words and records.

If contingency plans are not well prepared, security guards, or even your own lives, will be sacrificed.

Therefore, being a good security guard is not so easy.

"Don't worry about that. Don't forget what I've been doing all these years."

Since retiring, she has been working as a 'protector'.

In the past, security personnel operated haphazardly, without formal training, requirements, or standards.

However, she has also summarized her own set of experiences from her work over the years and her exchanges with the security department.

This experience is not limited to theory, but also has strong practical applications.

Don't forget, she was a war hero.

There are still many former comrades-in-arms, superiors, and soldiers who trained in the past in the team.

Some of these people sacrificed their lives, some rose to high positions, and some became bodyguards for leaders, including those in the imperial city.

Zhang Yu also communicated with them, without asking about specific plans, but simply exchanging their understanding and insights into the word "defense".

Dangers and threats encountered during the mission.

What methods should be used to prevent and resolve such issues?

Therefore, Zhang Yu is not a novice in this regard; on the contrary, she possesses a seasoned experience that most people do not have.

"Great." Yang Jianguo said happily, "Looks like I've found the right person."

Zhang Yu was indeed the person he wanted, and she did not disappoint him.

"50 people, with reliable backgrounds and character, and who can remain calm and patient."

"We don't want anyone who is impulsive, reckless, or driven."

"We are dealing with workers and ordinary people, and we are here to prevent anyone from making an unavoidable mistake in the heat of the moment, not to deal with enemies."

"Therefore, the most important thing is not to act impulsively, but to be able to obey orders without question."

After hearing his request, Zhang Yu nodded and said, "No problem, I will personally select the candidates."

“However, I need some time,” Zhang Yu also requested.

Finding 50 suitable people in a short period of time is nothing short of wishful thinking.

She first needs to make a general screening, then train these people for a period of time, and then select those who are both in good spirits and capable.

"Two months." Yang Jianguo gave her two months to train a suitable team.

Two months later, the New Year was over.

That will be the perfect time to fully promote industrial reform, including reducing energy consumption, increasing production, raising standards, and increasing investment.

If this combination of tactics can achieve even 30% effectiveness, then Yang Jianguo's painstaking efforts will not have been in vain.

In addition, at this time, those that are unqualified or uncompetitive are selected.

When the transfer of public assets to private assets becomes widespread, it can also prevent truly valuable assets from being maliciously manipulated and lost.

In the final stage of this fundamental reform, Yang Jianguo will conduct systematic statistical analysis of the data.

When needed, take out a pair, and you'll know if anyone is deliberately causing trouble, using public office for private gain, or lining their own pockets.

Chapter 374 Extension of Ideas, Reform Team Meeting

Yang Jianguo had set a rule for himself: he could not use public office for private gain.

Once material needs are met, people's need for spiritual fulfillment will increase day by day.

From simply having enough to eat and wear, to living a prosperous life, and then to achieving great things.

Even now, Yang Jianguo has returned to his roots.

All I want to do is make my life prosperous.

But this day no longer refers to just one's own small life, but to the great days of the nation and the family.

What I see, what I observe, what I think, what I contemplate...

Everything changes constantly over time.

Yang Jianguo hopes that the country will soon become prosperous and strong, and that the people will live in peace and tranquility.

Everyone is materially well-off and spiritually fulfilled, no longer living in fear or groveling.

He wanted to contribute his small share to the rise of his motherland.

Participating in this grand occasion makes me proud of myself and my country.

To add fuel to the fire for the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.

Therefore, one cannot allow the "personal ideal" of enriching oneself at public expense to extend outward and take root in one's position as one is promoted.

It is no longer just a personal ideology, but also Yang Jianguo's philosophy and core viewpoint in exercising power.

In business, you need to be cunning and take shortcuts.

Whether it's a slip-up or not, Yang Jianguo doesn't care, nor can he control it.

However, during the period of converting public assets to private ones, some people wanted to enrich themselves by embezzling public property.

No.

Why not? Because those factories involve the crucial question of whether hundreds or thousands of families will have enough to eat.

Yang Jianguo vividly remembers the period when the public sector was converted to private sector ownership.

Factories and businesses operating normally and with good potential in many places have suddenly become loss-making ventures.

This wasn't just any loss; it was a loss that wiped out even their underwear.

Then, the brand-new machine became a second-hand item 'on the verge of being scrapped'.

Equipment that cost two or three hundred thousand yuan to buy was sold for a few hundred yuan as scrap metal.

It's passed around a few times, and anything that's been handled gets covered in oil, making it look like a pig's head.

The land was even more outrageous; let alone selling it to pay the workers' wages and severance pay so they could get through their difficult time.

That amount isn't even enough to cover the previous 'debts,' so in reality, the workers would have to pay out of pocket.

996 is nothing!

You work for free, and you're in the wrong even when you try to reason with them. If you really calculate the costs, you'll have to pay the factory out of your own pocket.

Hey~

Have you ever heard of paying someone to work? That's real skill!

This kind of rotten nonsense, turning black into white, has happened more than once or twice, forcing countless people to lose their way to survive.

Having been fortunate enough to come to this position, how could Yang Jianguo possibly stand idly by?

No.

When we lack the ability, we can comfort ourselves.

But when you have the ability to reach out and grab something, you have to comfort yourself by saying, "Sacrifice is necessary, things will get better in the future," and pretend that these things never happened.

Conscience... this conscience, it just won't let me get over it!

Therefore, Yang Jianguo has attended every meeting recently regarding the formation of the restructuring team.

And he made it clear that he would definitely get involved in this matter.

Without hesitation!

Yang Jianguo's work style has always been like this.

Although this time I was a bit more assertive and proactive, it didn't arouse any suspicion from anyone.

Furthermore, the restructuring of hundreds of thousands of enterprises would require an enormous amount of work.

It could hold ten more Yang Jianguos, let alone multiple Yang Jianguos...
