Siheyuan: A warm home with wife and children

That's your problem.

If you want to file a complaint but can't find anyone, what does that have to do with me, Yang Jianguo?

Do you expect me to kill myself?

Even after a week of delays, Yang Jianguo's progress was encouraging.

They conquered the door handles, the exterior, the wheel hubs, and even the tricky seals.

Don't underestimate this small seal.

In fact, the technical complexity involved is quite high.

However, that was the end of their good fortune.

Just when Yang Jianguo was about to hollow out Shanghai Volkswagen, a new leader arrived.

This new leader was indeed transferred in from outside.

Previously, I wasn't in a technical role; I was in charge of related administrative work.

This visit is also to oversee specific administrative work.

The first domestic issue he was to oversee was the 'internal' unrest recently caused by Yang Jianguo.

Chapter 479 Pressure, Answering Questions, and Missed Opportunities

There's a saying: "Solving a problem without solving it means solving the problem of creating it."

What if we can't solve the manufacturing problem?

There was no other way but to try to reach a settlement.

The new leader wanted to do just that, so he brought Yang Jianguo over and reasoned with him, appealing to his emotions and logic.

Talk to him about unity and cooperation, about the idea that we are all one family.

Yang Jianguo also told him that!

Since we're all family, why can they do it but we can't?

Buying from others will never be as good as making it yourself.

If we can manufacture it, will we no longer need to buy it in the future?

A car costs 20.

Just the cost of official vehicles alone is enormous.

Our cars are different; they cost 4 yuan each.

If it's too expensive, we can lower the price a bit more.

This angered the new manager, who asked him, "Can the cars you build be as sturdy as theirs?"

slap~

Yang Jianguo slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "If it weren't for its sturdiness, I would have crawled under the wheels."

Their first meeting ended badly.

This incident also cast a shadow over the Ministry of Works.

How can the work proceed if the top leader and the actual second-in-command are at odds?

If the two of them deliberately go against each other in the future, whose opinion should be followed?

Yang Jianguo didn't make things difficult for his subordinates and entered the research institute that same day.

They stayed inside for two weeks.

The person almost never showed up in the office, but the Great Wall Motors Company in Beijing was still established, or rather, it was established.

There were all sorts of protests, snitching, and complaints against him.

Upon arriving at the Ministry of Works, they received feedback, and the new leader also expressed his attitude.

We definitely need to give them an explanation, but please don't rush them.

Things need to be done step by step, and Yang Jianguo was not without roots in the Ministry of Works.

It's not something that can be done on a whim, and besides, he holds multiple positions.

If we touch him, the higher-ups won't agree.

I accept all the complaints.

The promised measures to stop and punish such behavior have been delayed.

Little did they know, Yang Jianguo was having a long talk with his new leader at the research institute.

Who would have thought that the two were actually old acquaintances?

Expert Liu is a lecturer in the gifted youth program.

He suddenly resigned two years ago, saying that the organization needed him for a certain purpose.

This also exonerated him and his family, but he still wanted to contribute to the country.

After that parting, I never heard from them again.

Unexpectedly, he suddenly became his boss.

Before we met, I thought someone was coming.

I was quite surprised to learn they didn't understand technology and were only good at administration.

Upon hearing Yang Jianguo's words, Expert Liu calmly responded: "As you know, my profession is not one to be too ostentatious."

His major was the nuclear industry; he must have been participating in some project during the years he disappeared.

The details are not something Yang Jianguo should be asking.

Can you arrange a background of 'no technical experience' for him? Is there any need to ask anything else?

"Jianguo, your idea of ​​creating your own brand is excellent!"

"Before I came here, my boss specifically called me and told me to tell you to do a good job."

"Although the situation prevents us from suppressing all of these people, the leaders have all seen what you've done."

"And it supports your ideas and decisions."

After receiving an affirmative reply from expert Liu, Yang Jianguo was completely relieved.

With the tacit approval and support from above, and with expert Liu as the ruling leader, the situation was dire.

This is essentially no different from the previous pairings when the top leader was in charge.

Yang Jianguo was still able to work freely and boldly.

As for his public attitude, the fact remains that the two are 'at odds'.

These are all deliberately done for a select group of people outside the community, giving them a channel and direction for venting their frustrations.

Hold onto hope that the problem will eventually be resolved.

This way, it won't cause any real trouble for what Yang Jianguo is doing.

This will allow him to perfect the technology more quickly and create the first independent Chinese-made car brand.

"Give me another 20 days, and I guarantee the first prototype will roll off the production line in 20 days."

Yang Jianguo made a pledge to him, promising to complete the mission within 20 days.

Expert Liu shouted, "Fine, I'll wait 20 days."

As for how to get through the 20 days, Expert Liu currently has no plan.

But since Yang Jianguo needs these 20 days, I have to make room for them.

No matter how great the difficulties and pressures, 20 days is 20 days.

In the blink of an eye, more than half of the 20 days have passed.

The pressure from those who benefit from the franchise rights in Shanghai is growing.

Expert Liu also considered asking his superiors for support.

But if he does that, he's essentially making a statement to the higher-ups.

Is it possible for this reform path to continue?

Attitude is crucial at this time.

To win external respect and internal trust, while simultaneously pursuing vigorous development without attracting attention.

All aspects need to be properly arranged and a balance needs to be found.

In just a few days, the expert's temples had turned gray.

He was already a few years older than Yang Jianguo, and his family had suffered a series of misfortunes.

It can be said that these years have exhausted his energy and spirit.

Suddenly having to shoulder such a heavy responsibility, the pressure is unimaginable.

But he didn't say a word, stubbornly holding on.

No matter who comes, the response is always the same: "We are negotiating and handling this matter."

Yang Jianguo stayed at the research institute day and night, and didn't go home for 20 days straight.

On the day before he was about to give up, he produced impressive results.

We have a self-developed chassis.

This period was like an eternity for Yang Jianguo.

His mind didn't stop for even a quarter of an hour.

Even when I'm asleep, I can dream about the current predicaments and problems I'm facing.

A sudden breakthrough made him wake up from his dream with joy.

He squandered all the cards stored in the warehouse for free in just 20 days.

I bought anything that I could use without hesitation.

It's not that Yang Jianguo doesn't know how to cherish things, nor is it that he has too many 'cards' and nowhere to use them.

He was acutely aware of the immense pressure behind this matter.

How much power do those people have at their disposal?

They are the most adept at using external forces to interfere with and influence internal affairs.

What the organization fears most right now is substantive remarks that are detrimental to its image.

So, once that time comes...

Even though they supported Yang Jianguo, they had no choice but to completely halt his activities.

What Yang Jianguo wanted to exploit was the time difference before the call to halt the proceedings.

He did not disappoint expert Liu, delivering a satisfactory result.

"Let's go, let's go to the production line now."

Looking at the handcrafted chassis in front of him, expert Liu couldn't wait to see it being assembled.

Yang Jianguo smiled and shook his head, saying, "I won't go. I'm afraid I won't be able to stand and will fall asleep."

Only then did Expert Liu notice his appearance.

His eyes were bloodshot, as if he had conjunctivitis, and tears kept overflowing from the corners of his eyes.

That's caused by excessive eye strain and overstimulation.

And his face was deathly pale.

"Jianguo, are you alright?!"

Expert Liu looked at him with concern and helped him sit down by supporting his arm.

Yang Jianguo shook his head, as if he wanted to say something more.
