That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 570 Unless You Are a Straw Bag (Three Updates to Pay Back the Debt)
"Xiao Ye, then tell me, how is your management ability?"

Li Kaijian asked this question with gritted teeth. It was bad enough that his son didn't believe in his management ability, but even his father didn't believe in it.

If you can't afford to offend the father, then you have to ask your son.

But Li Ye said frankly: "If it comes to managing a business, then I am definitely not as good as you, and I am still a lot worse."

When it comes to the ability to make money, Li Ye considers himself to be very strong.

He knows where the money-making opportunities are and where to invest to make money, but when it comes to management skills, he can only say that he is average.

In his previous life, the best he could do was a miserable middle-level manager, and he never had the opportunity to truly run a company.

Unless you reach the level of the top leader, you will not be able to truly come into contact with the various problems that the top leader needs to solve. Imagination and speculation alone are ultimately far from reality.

Apart from anything else, “how to spend money” is a big question.

Only when you run a household do you know how expensive food and daily necessities are. For a factory with a few hundred people, the financial expenses and interpersonal relationships are a mess. What about a company with thousands or tens of thousands of people?
Thousands of people mean thousands of minds and thousands of ideas. The interpersonal experience and distribution of power and interests required here are impossible to learn in any MBA training class.

Li Ye has no experience or knowledge in this area, so if he has to manage a company personally, he might not even be as good as Li Kaijian, let alone his grandfather Li Zhongfa and mother Fu Guiru.

"You are too modest."

Li Ye frankly admitted that he was not as good as Li Kaijian, which made Li Kaijian feel embarrassed. After all, Li Ye's ability was recognized by his father Li Zhongfa.

Li Ye smiled and said, "Dad, do you know the story of Han Xin and Liu Bang?"

[Your Majesty is not good at commanding troops, but is good at commanding generals. This is why Xin was captured by Your Majesty. Moreover, Your Majesty’s so-called gift from heaven is not human power.]

"."

Li Ye is indeed lacking in some aspects, but he understands the principle that "a general is worse than his soldiers."

I just put forward ideas and requirements. Others offer one dollar as salary, and I offer one dollar and eighty dollars. You just have to work hard for me and don't waste time or say a word.

A 999 gold brick will hit you on the head. No matter you are a genius or an industry elite, you will feel dizzy!
"."

Li Ye and Li Kaijian left, and Li Zhongfa and Wu Juying remained silent.

After a long while, Wu Juying said, "How about not transferring him to the Patriotic Affairs Office?"

Li Zhongfa shook his head slowly and said, "Since she wants Aiguo to go to the Grain Bureau, then let him go to the Grain Bureau! Will she believe you if you tell her now?"

. . . . . . . . .

"Hey, Xiaoyu, did you miss me?"

"You asked me if I missed you, why don't you ask yourself if you missed me? What date is it now? Do you really want to wait until the beginning of the month to return to the capital?"

"I've been a little busy these days, but I'm basically done. I'll be back in Beijing in the next few days. Don't do the house repairs yet. I'll do it when the time comes."

Listening to Wen Leyu's somewhat coquettish scolding, Li Ye scratched his head embarrassedly.

Originally, he and Wen Leyu had planned to stay in Qingshui County for about ten days and then return, and the two of them would complete the final renovation project of the courtyard house on Fuyou Street together.

But after listening to Li Ye's words, Li Kaijian pestered Li Ye for some technical improvement plan to prepare for the future introduction of technology.

Li Ye didn't know much about chemical engineering either! He had no choice but to get Li Dayong's records one by one and send them to the technical team in Changbei, and then let them verify the technology to determine whether to introduce advanced overseas production lines or to tackle the technical problems and assemble them themselves.

In 1965, my country's first urea equipment was successfully tested at the Shanghai Wujing Chemical Plant and produced the first batch of high-efficiency fertilizer urea.

But in the 1970s, the mainland still imported a large amount of urea from Japan, and people used urea bags to make clothes.

Rhymes like "Japanese fertilizer in front and urea in the back" and "Big cadres and small cadres, each with a pair of nylon pants, some black, some blue, but there are no ones for members," all reflect the backwardness of the mainland's fertilizer industry.

But who would have thought that decades later, the mainland's fertilizer industry would become the world leader.

"You don't need to fix the house at all. Sister Xiaoyue has been helping me clean it up! I'm just worried that you won't be able to come back before the end of the month. If you delay the procedures for going abroad, I'll be so happy for nothing! My mother finally agreed to let me go out and play with you."

The considerate Wen Leyu heard Li Ye's apology and instead carefully comforted Li Ye.

Li Ye also heard the little girl's anticipation. She had always been well protected by Teacher Ke and had never traveled alone!
"Well, it's only these two days. I promise I won't delay it."

Li Ye hung up the phone only after making repeated assurances.

But just as he put it down, the phone rang again.

When Li Ye picked up the phone, it turned out to be Principal Chang calling.

"Li Ye! The college entrance examination scores are out, hurry up and bring your sister over to see the list."

"The scores are out?" Li Ye was surprised, then asked with a smile: "Do I need to go over and see? Isn't it enough for you to just tell me how many points I got?"

"Stop talking nonsense and come here quickly!"

"dududu~"

Li Ye looked at the hung up call and couldn't help laughing.

Hearing how happy Principal Chang was, I knew my sister must have done well in the exam.

"Xiaojuan, come out and check the list."

"Ah? I, I, I'm going to go, go, go."

Li Juan was stunned for a moment, then she hurried out of the house. She had been waiting anxiously for the past few days. The two of them drove out and arrived at the County No. 2 Middle School. From a distance, they saw Principal Chang standing by the big red list, lecturing a group of students who came to see the list.

"Our school has never lacked excellent students. Those of you who don't have exams, ask yourselves first: have you been concentrating on studying? During evening self-study, have you been looking forward to the bell ringing so that you can go home and sleep?"

“There is no shortcut to anything. Whether it is study or work, don’t rely on luck or be distracted. Only by focusing on one thing can you get the best return.”

Li Ye felt Principal Chang's words sounded familiar. After thinking carefully, he remembered that this was the speech he gave when he toured various middle schools when he was admitted to Peking University.

"Hey, Li Juan is here, students, please make way for her."

Principal Chang saw Li Ye and Li Juan, smiled and waved, and everyone immediately made way for them.

Li Juan walked over nervously and came to the red scoreboard.

Then, tears could not stop flowing down her cheeks.

Her name was hanging high at the top of the red list.

"Brother, I got 606 points."

Li Ye smiled and said nothing. He just rubbed Li Juan's head as a sincere congratulations to her.

This score may not mean anything decades later, but in 1985, you could definitely proudly shout "I am a top student."

Principal Chang also came over and said with emotion: "Li Ye! It would be great if you were a teacher at the County No. 2 Middle School. In that case, we would have students admitted to Beijing University every year."

Li Ye quickly said, "Principal Chang, please don't say that. The reason why my sister got this score is entirely due to her own efforts. It has nothing to do with me."

Principal Chang narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Ye for a long time before he chuckled and said, "Don't tell me this kind of thing. Save it for telling the students at the report meeting!
Our school hasn't had a student tour report for three years. This time, you brothers and sisters will share your learning experience with everyone."

"I don't have time."

Li Ye rejected Principal Chang's plan of "conscripting men" at once. He was now a man worth hundreds of thousands of dollars, so how could he have the time to give a report to a bunch of kids?
"Why don't you have time?"

"I have to go back to the capital to handle the formalities and prepare for my overseas visit. I will leave this afternoon."

"."

Principal Chang stared at Li Ye for a long time, and finally looked at Li Juan: "Li Juan! Prepare well, we must do better than what your brother said back then."

Li Juan looked at Li Ye eagerly. How could she give a report?

Li Ye exhaled and said, "From now on, you are a big girl. You have to learn to walk on your own."

Li Juan's little face suddenly turned into a bitter melon. For the first time in her life, she tasted the troubles of growing up.

. . . . . . . .

Li Ye really drove away that afternoon. When he was driving away, he happened to run into his aunt Li Mingyue. Looking at Li Mingyue's dark face, it was obviously because of Li Juan's college entrance examination results.

[You believe me now? It’s too late! ]

Li Ye and Li Dayong took turns driving and returned to Beijing that night. The next morning, they wanted to sleep a little longer, but their sister Li Yue came to their door early in the morning.

Li Ye asked in surprise: "Why so early? Is there something urgent?"

Li Yue said: "It's not urgent. I just want to discuss with you whether to let Zou Zhiguo take over the sales manager position first while I study for a while?"

Li Ye was stunned, and quickly touched his sister's forehead with his hand: "Sister, are you tired? Are you feeling unwell?"

Li Yue slapped Li Ye's hand away and said reproachfully, "Don't let your imagination run wild. I'm in good health! It's just that after taking over all the channel matters these two days, I always feel that I am redundant."

"extra?"

Li Ye thought for a moment and asked, "Sister, do you think Zou Zhiguo is more capable than you? So you are embarrassed to be the sales manager?"

Li Yue said helplessly: "Not only Zou Zhiguo, Ma Qianshan is also more capable than me. Now I always feel that the way others look at me is not right, and I feel a little guilty."

Li Ye smiled, poured a glass of water for his sister, and then said: "Don't think that way. When Ma Qianshan and Zou Zhiguo first started working in sales, they were far worse than you. They were really pushing the issue, but look at them now..."

"So you don't have to feel guilty, sister. If you don't understand something, just let them help you. It's the same if you sit in the manager's chair and learn."

In fact, in terms of personal ability, either Zou Zhiguo or Ma Qianshan can take Jin Peng's original position.

But compared with Li Yue, they are not suitable for the current situation.

The sales network of Pengcheng Factory No. 7 developed in a barbaric way in its early stages, and inevitably accumulated some problems. This time, with the change of boss, it is necessary to overhaul it.

Although Li Yue has less experience, Jin Peng, Hao Jian and Pei Wencong will all come out to support her. If any of her subordinates are not convinced, they will be killed with a single blow and none of them dare to say a word.

If it were Ma Qianshan or Zou Zhiguo, they might start to whine about seniority and drag their feet, which would result in half the effort and twice the result.

After sister Li Yue gained more experience and got promoted to a higher position, Zou Zhiguo, Ma Qianshan and others naturally followed suit.

After listening to Li Ye's explanation, sister Li Yue couldn't help but ask: "Xiao Ye, is what we do considered nepotism?"

Li Ye laughed and said, "Sister, this is a private company. Unless you are a very good idiot, you will be appointed based on personal connections."

Li Yue blinked and did not refuse anymore. She, Li Yue, has always been a person who refuses to admit defeat since she was a child.

Besides, if she refuses again, wouldn't that mean she's admitting that she's a fool?
