That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 1402 I'm determined to ruin it.

As soon as Li Ye and Cong Jin Hong stepped out, they ran into Gan Zhongjie and Weng Keming, who both looked hostile.

Li Ye joked, "Hey, what's going on today? Are you all rushing to my place for an early market?"

These past few days, because Shang Bin had subtly yielded, Li Ye was willing to give him some face, so he said this with a smile.

When it comes to interactions between colleagues, a genuine smile or a fake smile is still a smile, and smiling is never wrong.

But neither Gan Zhongjie nor Weng Keming laughed.

Weng Keming said with a stern face, "Comrade Li Ye, are you aware of the strike by the technical staff of your branch factory?"

"A collective strike?"

Li Ye's expression also turned cold.

Although Shang Bin only allowed Jia Zhongyue to rest due to illness after Gan Zhongjie slammed his fist on the table, Li Ye's attitude towards Gan Zhongjie did not change much.
Gan Zhongjie's original intention was to send technical management personnel from Southwest Heavy Truck to the No. 1 Plant to conduct research on the KamAZ project.

But Li Ye refused. Instead, he sent thirty technicians with a complete set of Kamaz technical drawings to the southwest to assist Southwest Heavy Truck in its research and development.

Even though Gan Zhongjie noticed that the thirty people were "loafing around," Li Ye didn't add another person. He simply told them to change their strategy, stop slacking off, and start learning seriously from the technicians at Southwest Heavy Truck.

I'm giving you a group of eager learners for free. What fault can you possibly have? At least it will make you feel respected!

But how did it escalate to a "strike" in just a few days?

So Li Ye asked very seriously, "When did this happen? Why did you suddenly go on strike?"

Weng Keming stared intently at Li Ye, as if trying to discern whether he was feigning ignorance: "It happened yesterday, what? Comrade Li Ye, don't you know?"

Li Ye immediately retorted, "Do you think I should know? Why do you think I should know?"

Li Ye genuinely didn't know about the strike, but at this point, he wasn't going to honestly explain, "I didn't know," because that would be like being falsely accused of taking photos without consent, getting stuck in an endless cycle of proving himself.
Now Weng Keming is clearly setting a trap for Li Ye, subtly accusing him of instigating the workers' strike behind the scenes. How could Li Ye fall for it?
Weng Keming was surprised by Li Ye's bluntness. He frowned, did not answer, but turned his head slightly to look at Gan Zhongjie.

Gan Zhongjie stepped forward and said to Li Ye in a deep voice, "Deputy General Manager Li, I originally thought that as long as your requirements were met, everyone could work together to carry out the research and development work."

But I didn't expect that you would still be secretly disobeying the ministry's instructions. Not only did the technicians from your branch factory not obey the command of the Kamaz project team, but they even wanted to go on strike and return to Beijing.

"You wait a minute!"

Li Ye abruptly interrupted Gan Zhongjie, then coldly asked, "You said you met my request? What request did I make? Explain yourself."

Gan Zhongjie paused, his wandering gaze passing over Li Ye's shoulder and landing on the office behind Li Ye.

Li Ye couldn't help but laugh.

You don't actually think that by giving me an office, I'll hand over my entire R&D team to you to boss around, do you? Is there such a good deal in the world? You're dreaming!

At this moment, Weng Keming said seriously, "Deputy Factory Director Li, perhaps there are some misunderstandings and disagreements between us, but I want to remind you that the Kamaz project is a key project that the country has invested real money in. We are all government officials, and we should all work hard for the overall interests of the country."

How do you know I haven't worked for the greater good of the country?

Li Ye sneered, "You all know that the KamAS project is a technology that the country bought with real money, but do you know that I borrowed that money through connections, and the country still hasn't settled accounts with me!"

"."

Weng Keming, Gan Zhongjie, and Cong Jinhong were all stunned. They couldn't believe that the country actually owed Li Ye money.

Actually, there was a reason behind Li Ye's words.

Back in Moscow, Li Ye acted as an intermediary, borrowing a large amount of supplies from Jin Peng and Bian Jingjing to support the inspection team's acquisition of projects such as automobile factories and metal smelters through a "foreign loan, domestic settlement" method.

Many projects are not yet fully completed, so domestic settlements are not yet finished. It's not an exaggeration to say that Li Ye is still owed money.

But to Gan Zhongjie and the others, these words sounded so absurd and so irrefutable.

Seeing the few stunned guys, Li Ye lost interest in chatting with them and went back to his office to pick up the phone and start dialing Chen Yazhi's cell phone.

Thirty people were sent to Southwest Heavy Truck this time. Chen Yazhi was the leader of the working group, so the factory provided him with a mobile phone.

However, Li Ye tried calling several times but couldn't get through. At that moment, Cong Jin Hong pulled Weng Keming aside and complained unhappily, "Old Weng, can you please stop causing trouble at a time like this? We agreed to go get the loan today, and you're going to interrupt again."

Weng Keming looked around to make sure no one was watching, then lowered his voice and said, "I didn't mean to cause trouble, but things are a bit complicated."

Jin Hong was somewhat surprised, but as Weng Keming spoke in a low voice, her expression turned grim.

"Don't try to frame me first, go find Shang Bin right now."

"What do you mean by 'the guilty party accuses the innocent first'? They're the ones who broke the rules first."

"Don't tell anyone, just make sure I get the loan first."

"."

A few minutes later, Cong Jinhong returned to Li Ye's office, smiling, and said, "Vice President Li, I sent the old man back. It wasn't a big deal. Shall we go to the bank first? You know, we really can't afford to delay with the relocation office any longer."

Li Ye was making a phone call with a frown. Although he had a bad feeling about it, he really couldn't afford to delay the loan any longer.

So he instructed Zhou Ziqing: "Contact Chen Yazhi again later and ask him what's going on. If it's our responsibility, we'll admit it; if it's not, we'll stand up for him."

Zhou Ziqing nodded and said, "Okay, I understand."

. . . . . . . . . . .

Jin Hong left Jingnan Group with Li Ye, but Li Ye didn't let him ride in the same car; they both rode in their own cars.

Jin Hong followed behind, feeling uneasy the whole way, afraid that Li Ye in the car in front would suddenly receive a phone call, causing further complications to today's loan application. She really couldn't afford to delay any longer.

However, Li Ye did not show any unusual behavior until he arrived at Zhongxin Industrial Bank.

Once she arrived at the bank, Jin Hong's anxiety disappeared, replaced by a hidden anger.

Yes, it's anger.

The way Manager Zhong at the bank treated Li Ye was completely different from how he had been treated when he came a couple of days ago.

Li Ye told Jin Hong that he had already made arrangements, and Jin Hong did come over, but all she did was serve her tea and didn't give her a penny.

But today, it's as if they're afraid Li Ye will lend too little.

"Brother Li, how much are you borrowing this time?"

"Let's take out a loan of 30 million first!"

"Thirty million is too little, isn't it? Borrow more! I'll give you the lowest interest rate."

"No, we don't need it."

"."

Jin Hong couldn't help but remind Li Ye, "The budget for our group's office building is at least 80 million."

Li Ye smiled slightly and said, "Let's borrow 30 million first, and then use the land as collateral to borrow the rest."

"This"

Cong Jinhong wanted to persuade Li Ye again, but Li Ye waved the phone in his hand and said with a cold smile, "Sister Cong, you just told me that the old man only had a small matter to discuss with me this morning?"

Jin Hong was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled awkwardly, "Compared to our office building, this isn't a big deal, is it?"

"That's true, nothing in life matters except death, hehehehe~"

Li Ye smiled, revealing a set of gleaming white teeth.

Previously, he had only planned that if Jingnan Group eventually failed and had to split up, he would simply take over the office building himself. But now, Li Ye has changed his mind.

I'm determined to ruin it.
