Chapter 720 If you don’t eat the toast, you will be punished by drinking wine

The next day after the meeting, Lao Qiu sent a young technician, Xiao Zhu, to Li Ye to assist Li Ye in going to the transportation department to obtain approval procedures.

"Li Ye, these are the drawings and materials that our department has just revised. The prototype car will probably be revised the day after tomorrow."

"So fast?"

Li Ye took the blueprint and looked at it, and found that the width of the brake drum and brake shoe had indeed been increased. The efficiency of the technical department could be described as "lightning fast".

Xiao Zhu said nonchalantly: "These technical problems are minor. I can fix them in one night."

"It's amazing that you can fix it in one night."

Li Ye shook his head and smiled. Although he knew that the design of civilian machinery was not so rigorous these days, he always felt helpless.

In theory, any change to any part of a car requires rigorous technical demonstration and practical testing.

But now looking at the style of people like Xiao Zhu, it is really very casual.

Is it possible for you to finish the painting in one night?

After joining the company, Li Ye carefully examined the design process of the company's flagship product, Jingcheng 130.

According to the oral statements of several old masters, Beijing 130 was not "designed" but "tested".

We first refer to a few imported vehicles, and then follow their example to determine the wheelbase, track width, front and rear axle caster angle, roll angle and other data, and then make a prototype vehicle for road testing.

If jitter, deviation or other undesirable phenomena occur, various adjustments will be made. When an optimal value is reached, the design is considered successful.

Decades later, designers will eliminate these obvious "flaws" during the theoretical design stage and avoid most of the detours.

However, Beijing Light Automobile Company does not seem to have such high-level design capabilities. Even this 136 car has borrowed many parameters from the Japanese Isuzu.

However, this imitation of 136 is still quite good. Li Ye has driven a 136 prototype, which is much better than 130. It is very close to or even not inferior to the mainstream light trucks of later generations.

Perhaps after this imitation, the Light Automobile Company will be able to gain more technological accumulation!

"What's so great about me revising the drawings in one night? It's great about me completing the approval procedures on time!"

When Xiao Zhu heard Li Ye praising him for his drawing skills, he kindly reminded Li Ye: "In our situation, it is normal to get approval in more than a month.
It’s September now, and approval will take until October or November, and then production will be arranged. The new car needs to roll off the assembly line before the New Year, so there’s not much time at all.”

“Is more than a month considered normal?”

Li Ye counted with his fingers, nodded slowly and said, "That's easy."

"Easy to handle?" Xiao Zhu was stunned for a moment, then said to Li Ye: "Director Qiu reminded me when I came here that we must hurry up. Do you think we should go and deliver the materials today?"

Li Ye thought about it for a while, nodded and said, "It's okay to go and check the situation today. Don't say that we didn't give them a chance."

Xiao Zhu didn't understand what Li Ye meant, so he just asked tentatively: "Then should we ask for a car from the fleet?"

Li Ye smiled and said generously: "Drive my car! We are in a hurry."

"Okay, I'll also ride in the Santana that I'm not afraid of anywhere in the world."

Xiao Zhu happily followed Li Ye out.

Since Li Ye started driving to work, he has adhered to a principle: I drive my own car to work because I am happy to do so, but if you want to turn my car into a "public bus", that is impossible.

So in the past few days, a few colleagues who thought they were "very confident" were rejected by Li Ye. Not to mention borrowing his car, even if they were asked to hitchhike, Li Ye would just refuse them directly.

"I have to pick up my wife from get off work! I don't have time!"

Anyway, Li Ye’s personality at work is not “generous” but “arrogant”, and no one can PUA him.

However, everyone also noticed that Li Ye is a "pleasure-seeking" guy. If he really needs to go out during work, he will most likely drive his own car.

That’s why Xiao Zhu is so looking forward to today.

If the car was sent by the fleet, it would definitely be the Beijing 130, which is used for both passengers and cargo. It has no air conditioning and no shock absorption, and the riding experience is completely different from Li Ye's Santana.

However, after Xiao Zhu happily followed Li Ye away, Wu Qingyi, holding his breath, stood up and walked out, apparently going to visit someone and chat.

Old Ding, who had been promoted to section chief, glanced at him, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and revealed a disdainful smile.

Some people just won't give up. The more they lose, the more angry they get. They won't give up until they have lost everything.

. . . . . . . .

Li Ye drove very fast and arrived at the place at around nine o'clock. Then Xiao Zhu suddenly asked Li Ye in a low voice: "Should we go directly to hand in the materials? Or should we find a connection first?"

Li Ye smiled faintly and said, "Submit the materials first! Follow the process."

Xiao Zhu glanced at Li Ye and nodded, "Okay, let's try it first."

But judging from Xiao Zhu's tone, he obviously didn't hold out any hope and was even prepared to be beaten back.

However, when the two arrived at a department on the third floor, they were told that the person in charge of this business had gone out and would be back soon.

Since you will be back soon, wait a while! You can't just leave the materials behind and go! There is no surveillance these days. If they say you didn't keep them, who will you complain to?

As a result, they waited for more than two hours. When it was time to get off work at noon, the man still hadn't come back. Li Ye said helplessly, "Let's go! Let's find a place to eat first and come back in the afternoon!"

Xiao Zhu also agreed: "Okay, I have the food coupons with me!"

Beijing Light Automobile is located in Haidian, which is quite far from the city center, so Xiao Zhu has obviously experienced similar things.

However, just as the two were about to leave, the door of the next department opened, and Director Liang from Fangshan came out "chatting and laughing happily" with several clerks.

Xiao Zhu leaned on Li Ye's shoulder and nodded at a clerk, indicating that this was the person who was choking us.

Isn't this really annoying?
Li Ye couldn't help but think of the story Wang Wanda told. A loan was agreed upon but it was not released no matter what. The person was clearly in the office, but they said he was not there.

Would you say it's annoying?
There’s something even more infuriating!
After seeing Li Ye, Director Liang seemed "very surprised", and then he said with a smile: "Comrade Li Ye, why are you here? Oh, it's fate that we can meet here. It just so happens that we are going out to eat together, why don't you come with us?"

Fuck your grandma!
It's easy to figure out with your toes that Director Liang didn't invite Li Ye to drink with good intentions, but to ask him to serve tea and water.

I serve you tea? What level are you? What class are you? Are you qualified?

"Thank you for your kindness, Director Liang. I don't really like crowds, so I'm really sorry."

Li Ye said this calmly, and then he took Xiao Zhu away, saying as he walked, "Xiao Zhu, where do you want to eat? How about Moscow Restaurant?"

"Lao Mo? Li Ye, I can't afford Lao Mo!"

"Tsk, do you have to pay for dinner with me?"

"."

Watching Li Ye leave in a show-off manner, Director Liang's face was so gloomy that it seemed as if water was about to drip out.

The staff member next to him said loudly, "If you don't accept my toast, you will be punished."

This sentence kept echoing in the empty corridor and finally reached the ears of Li Ye and Xiao Zhu.

Xiao Zhu looked at Li Ye with some concern.

Li Ye said, "He's right. If you don't accept my toast, I'll drink the wine for you."

. . . . . . . .

Li Ye really invited Xiao Zhu to have a meal at Lao Mo and returned to the unit in the afternoon.

Master Lao Ding asked Li Ye in a low voice, and Li Ye told him exactly what had happened today.

Old Ding was immediately furious.

"Do you really think we are easy to bully? And you don't even want to drink the wine. Can he afford to buy wine?"

Lao Ding picked up the phone and dialed: "Hello, is this the Finance Department? I'm looking for Director Xiao. Lao Xiao, how much is the balance left from the Fangshan Auto Parts Factory? Don't pay him yet. I'm counting and verifying their defective products. We'll reconcile the accounts after they are returned."

"Hey, is Director Meng here? Old Meng! Please take the time to count those substandard headlights. Yes, the ones from Fangshan.
You have to order even if it's not good. If it doesn't work, you can ask Fangshan to send someone to order. As long as it's their defective product, even if it's ten years old, you have to return it to them."

"."

Old Ding's actions were as ferocious as a tiger, and he scared Wu Qingyi, Yue Lingshan and others in the office.

[For the sake of his apprentice, the old man is going to completely break off relations with Fangshan! ]

The two units have been cooperating for twenty years, and the relationship between them is complicated and can be described as a mess.

Ordinarily, unqualified products should have been returned immediately, but since everyone was so familiar with each other, we put it aside for the "research" and would deal with it later.

This has happened once, twice, countless times. In the end, the amount of defective products accumulated may be more than the money owed to Fangshan now.
If the accounts were really settled, Director Liang would not only have to ask for payment for the goods, but he might even have to pay back the money to the Light Automobile Company!

Li Ye felt relieved when he saw that Lao Ding's few phone calls had caused chaos in several departments.

So he said to Lao Ding: "Master, there is no need to make everyone uneasy. I think if we just wait and see, they will come to us for help soon."

"No no no,"

Lao Ding waved his hand and whispered, "You still don't understand the real situation here. On the surface, the warehouse and the finance department are complaining, but in fact, they are very happy!"

"Think about it, who is the one who is anxious after all this trouble? Even if they don't come to you for help, they will have to ask the warehouse and finance department for help, right? This is a good thing for everyone, and..."

Old Ding lowered his voice again and said to Li Ye, "We can definitely save some money this time. You can take charge of this matter when the time comes. You can attack or defend. It will be a credit anyway."

"."

Li Ye really admired him.

Lao Youtiao is Lao Youtiao.

It’s not that no one finds those defective products annoying when they’re placed in the factory, but every once in a while someone will mention them and then “study them” and everyone will be very satisfied.

This time, Lao Ding planned to do it hard to earn credit for Li Ye and help him get promoted.
