Chapter 815: Hating iron but not steel

"You call me old-fashioned?"

After hearing Cai Minying's evaluation of himself, Li Ye couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

Just now when I was talking to Cai Minying about Japan's economy, I had completely taken the initiative in the conversation and could almost be said to be leading her by the nose. But now, you turn around and say that I'm old-fashioned?

If I am old-fashioned, then what about you, a top student studying abroad?
In fact, Cai Minying now represents a part of the "most elite" people at this time. They think that they are just like the Chinese children studying in the United States back then, who have brought back the "true scriptures" from overseas and hope to make drastic changes to this old and decaying world.

Moreover, these people were given important positions after returning to China, and even had a huge impact on the mainland's economy, especially the development of finance, in the years that followed.

In Cai Minying's eyes, Li Ye, who said "go among the masses", is obviously still immersed in the rigid atmosphere of the times. He is just a country bumpkin who sits in a well and only sees the world from a narrow perspective.

"Aren't you old-fashioned? You have been taught by your teacher and have been exposed to the latest economic knowledge, but you still refuse to abandon your old-fashioned ideas.

You are clearly capable of going to a more suitable unit and contributing to the current economic reforms, but you have wasted the teacher's hard work and knowledge."

Several seniors attended Li Ye's wedding, so Cai Minying knew that Li Ye was capable of working in units such as the Economic Committee, but he unexpectedly went to the automobile factory.

Now, in less than a year, Li Ye has become the powerful deputy factory director, so Cai Minying believes that he is obsessed with power and deliberately took a shortcut to promotion.

After listening to Cai Minying's lecture on the profound principles, Li Ye truly understood what his senior brothers and sisters said about this junior sister - she likes to choke people.

Li Ye was a little curious about how she could survive in a government agency with such a bad temper.

Seeing that the other party was still going on, Li Ye quickly interrupted and said, "I don't think I have failed the teacher's training.
Although I did learn some cutting-edge economics knowledge, when I arrived at the workplace, I found that it was not so easy to apply this knowledge to actual situations.

In other words, what is in the books is too theoretical and often impractical. Our factory has now set up a separate branch to implement reforms, and we encounter a lot of practical situations every day.

Every situation seems to have an answer in the book, but after careful comparison, it seems to be true but not true.

Li Ye said frankly: "So sometimes I wonder, if I can't even understand the reform of a 2,000-person unit and can't manage it well, then how can I see through this society and make correct suggestions for this society?"

"."

Cai Minying looked at Li Ye for a while before she said coldly, "You really look like some people in our unit."

"."

After hearing this, Li Ye imagined certain scenes in his mind.

Although Cai Minying is an elite who has returned from studying abroad and has entered a high-level department that determines the country's economic policies, she seems to be involved in some so-called "national affairs".
But in fact, her daily work may just be to write reports and research, and then submit them to the higher-ups for analysis and decision. Moreover, most of these reports and research will be ignored.

After all, there are many people who have worked their way up from the bottom, and they are also weighing the possible consequences of adopting overly radical economic strategies.

Therefore, Cai Minying hated old-fashioned people like Li Ye. She felt that although she held the "true scriptures" in her hands, she could not look down on others and change the world.

But Cai Minying had no idea that the higher-ups had such great trust in them that the very next year, they decided to "take advantage of the fact that we are still here and make a brave charge," which resulted in the largest inflation in mainland China's history.

It has to be said that it is a special phenomenon of this era that a group of elites who are only good at talking on paper are trying to change a country with a population of over one billion by relying on the knowledge they have learned overseas for a few years.

Zhang Qiyan, who had been watching from the sidelines, saw that his two disciples were unwilling to give in, and finally spoke up: "Minying, your Senior Brother Li Ye is right. Do practical things first, then talk about the overall situation. You should strengthen communication with him in the future. It will be of great benefit to your work."

"."

Cai Minying glanced at Li Ye and said nothing, but she didn't argue with Li Ye anymore.

Li Ye also stood up and said goodbye to his teacher, his wife, and his fellow seniors.

Anyway, he has already conveyed the message that the Japanese stock market is about to crash. Today's mission has been completed. All he has to do is do his best and leave the rest to fate.

People like Cai Minying are not Pei Wencong. Even if Li Ye shouts "I guarantee 100% that the Japanese yen will plummet", they will believe it if they should, but will not believe it if they shouldn't.

But after Li Ye stood up to say goodbye, Yu Xiufen also stood up and said, "Li Ye, we will go with you."

"Then let's go! I'm on my way."

Li Ye thought Yu Xiufen and Wang Zhiyuan came by car, so he planned to take them back to the zoo's courtyard, which was indeed on the way. But after going downstairs, Li Ye found that the couple came by bike.

Yu Xiufen held Li Ye and said, "Li Ye, I actually want to ask you for a favor."

Li Ye said confidently, "You want to buy a house? You two have finally figured it out. I'll sell you the house on credit. Just give it to me when you have enough money."

"What are you talking about? Even if we buy a house, we won't buy one that big."

Yu Xiufen smiled and said, "This is what happened. Your senior brother's relatives in his hometown wanted to buy a 130 from your factory, the latest enhanced model with a diesel engine. But they couldn't buy it in their hometown, and they couldn't buy it in Beijing either."

Wang Zhiyuan also said sullenly: "My second uncle said that the market price has increased by 2,000 now, and he is willing to pay 2,000 more, as long as he has a car."

Li Ye was surprised and said, "That's it! I thought you were going to borrow money from me to buy a house! You're asking me for help to buy a car.

Besides, we've already arrived in Beijing, why don't you come to me? And you're paying me more? That's too polite, isn't it? If you keep being so polite, I'll really turn against you!"

Yu Xiufen smiled and patted Li Ye's shoulder, saying, "If I were to be polite, I would just give you a gift. I'll leave this matter to you! You still have to give me the two thousand yuan. That's the current market price."

"Oh, oh, oh, are you trying to discredit me?"

Li Ye unhappily rejected Yu Xiufen's "bribe".

He knew that his factory's new 130 was in great demand, but his senior's uncle came to him for help, and as the deputy factory manager in charge of sales, he couldn't approve an ex-factory price?

Make people laugh.

At this time, Cai Minying also came downstairs.

She saw Li Ye's Santana and suddenly asked, "How much did you pay for this car?"

Li Ye said, "About 150,000 yuan! This car doesn't have a fixed price. If you have connections, you can get it much cheaper."

Cai Minying nodded, got on her motorcycle and left.

Li Ye was a little confused. The two of them had clearly ignored each other just now, so why was she taking the initiative to talk to Li Ye now?
"Hey~"

Yu Xiufen chuckled and said, "She is trying to mend her relationship with you! Even though she was arguing with you just now, she actually looks at you differently."

"Look at me differently?" Li Ye said with a smile: "Senior sister, are you kidding me? Should I be flattered?"

"Anyway, she treats you differently from us," Yu Xiufen said with a smile, "Have you noticed that Minying has never questioned your views on economics. She recognizes your academic strength from the bottom of her heart."

Li Ye said helplessly: "Senior Sister, do you mean that we should respect each other?"

Yu Xiufen slowly shook her head: "No, the way she treated you just now, I feel like she is just being disappointed in you, right?"

I'm so disappointed in you.

. . . . . . . . .

After Cai Minying returned to her dormitory, she turned on the desk lamp and sat there blankly for a long time. Finally, she took out a pen and paper and started writing.

"Team Leader Lin, I have been back to China for several months and I miss it very much. I recently visited my teacher and several seniors. We discussed the economic situation in Japan and all of us believed that there are risks in the Japanese financial market. I hope you can analyze it carefully."

Cai Minying still borrowed Zhang Qiyan's name, hoping that her suggestions would attract attention. After all, Li Ye was just a nobody in the eyes of those elites.

It took a long time for Cai Minying to finish writing the letter.

She leaned back in her chair tiredly, muttering, "Alas, if you could join, I don't know how much trouble it would save."

Cai Minying is not disappointed with Li Ye, she just thinks that if Li Ye joins her side, then the suggestions she puts forward will be more easily accepted by everyone!
After all, Li Ye has a background.

But now Li Ye is going to run a small factory, which is a waste of such a good identity convenience.
