That year the flowers bloomed 1981

Chapter 913 We don’t have the habit of being second

December 20th, Sunday, heavy snow in Beijing.

The first snow of 1987 came a little late, but it was so heavy that when Liu Muhan came to visit Li Ye's house, he cried out in pain.

"Wow, it's snowing so heavily! All the buses have stopped today, and there are not many people on the road. The old man in front of me fell down, and no one helped him for a long time. I had to go up to him to help him up."

Liu Muhan took off his boots while chatting with Wen Leyu.

There was snow inside my boots and my socks were wet. It was obvious that the snow outside was really thick.

"Come here, little treasure, let your aunt hold you!"

After Liu Muhan changed into slippers, she came over happily to hug the child.

The two children are already seven months old. They are fair, plump, and healthy. Their babbling sounds are very cute.

But today, as soon as Liu Muhan hugged Xiao Baoer, Xiao Baoer started grinning and struggled to stretch out his arms to Li Ye.

"You're letting him down. Go warm him up by the heater first."

Li Ye brought his son back and said, "There's so much snow on the road, why are you in such a hurry to come here? What if you catch a cold? Won't Grandpa Liu and Grandma Gao blame me?"

"They won't blame you! You are the template and benchmark of a young talent in their minds. You are perfect and there is nothing wrong with you."

Liu Muhan curled his lips, unpacked the luggage he brought with him, and took out two things.

"This is the venison that my mother's friend sent to her. My mother said it's perfect for eating on a snowy day, so she urged me to send it to you as soon as possible."

"My dad heard that you like calligraphy and paintings, so he bought a painting from an old friend and asked me to give it to you for your appreciation."

"."

Li Ye looked at the gift Liu Muhan brought and couldn't help but said, "This is too polite! If I wasn't familiar with you, I would have thought you were asking me to do something for you!"

Liu Muhan glanced at Li Ye and said, "Haven't you done enough for me? If it weren't for you this time, my position as deputy director would have been ruined."

Wen Leyu beside him smiled and said, "Oh, so you got a promotion. Come over and share your joy with us!"

Liu Muhan said with a smile: "It's all thanks to your help, Xiaoyu! I thought it would be delayed for two years! But I couldn't help but finalize four imported projects in a row. Our director said that it would be unreasonable not to promote me."

"."

After returning from Japan, Professor Zhao, Liu Muhan and Wen Leyu began to introduce technology wholesale according to Li Ye's advice, completely eliminating the negative impact on Liu Muhan caused by Guo Huai's jumping off the building.

Li Ye smiled and said, "Then you have to curry favor with my wife. If she is willing, she can give you another promotion next year."

"Really? Oh, niece-in-law, you have to help me. Whether I can rise to the top depends on you."

Liu Muhan half-seriously and half-pretentiously tried to curry favor with Wen Leyu, and even hugged her arms affectionately.

Wen Leyu got rid of Liu Muhan with disdain, and said half-truthfully and half-jokingly, "You're still on the road to success! I just made a little profit, and I spent so much money again. Some people in our unit have given me a nickname, saying that I'm a money-spending boy."

"."

Wen Leyu has been continuously investing in the mainland manufacturing industry since last year. Thanks to Li Ye's strategy of occupying the market with low prices and building a good reputation, Laidong diesel engines and Changbei gearboxes have finally opened up sales and started to be supplied to light truck manufacturers such as Jinbei and Yanpai, with a good profit momentum.

However, compared with the speed of spending money, the speed of making money is obviously insufficient, and it cannot be compared with many "high-quality businesses" in Sino-Singapore. When Sino-Singapore was first established, it had the reputation of "doing everything that state-owned enterprises don't do", and it made a lot of quick money, so the manufacturing industry with large investment and slow return could not catch up.

"Haha, I was just kidding. Xiaoyu, don't listen to my nephew's nonsense. I am really satisfied this time. Just these few projects are enough for me to make a living."

Liu Muhan was playing with Wen Leyu with a smile. She was a person who knew when to advance and when to retreat. How could she let Wen Leyu continue to spend money next year?

When the favor becomes so great that one cannot repay it, the relationship between the two parties will change.

However, Li Ye said, "No, I talked to Professor Zhao yesterday. Next year, we will increase the efforts to introduce technology and strive to introduce a complete industrial chain required for modern automobile production."

"Increase the efforts to introduce more?"

Now not only Liu Muhan was puzzled, but Wen Leyu was also a little surprised.

Wen Leyu definitely supports Li Ye, but every time Li Ye listed the things that needed to be introduced to her, he was very planned. Now there is a sudden change, which makes her a little confused about the reason.

Li Ye exhaled and said, "In the past two years, our trade relations with the West have become increasingly hot, so I think we should take advantage of the opportunity to do more. After all, things are unpredictable and opportunities are hard to come by once lost."

"."

"Nephew, what do you mean by that? What do you mean by once you lose an opportunity, it will never come back? Our situation is getting better and better now!"

Liu Muhan didn't understand what Li Ye said, but Li Ye had no way to explain it to her.

It is almost 1988, and there is still a little more than a year left in the best period of relations between the mainland and the West. This is a truly rare opportunity.

After this period of time, not to mention many sensitive technologies, even slightly advanced technologies will be difficult to buy.

In just these few years, Dengta has been promoting F-16 fighter jets to the mainland. Can you believe this happening decades later?
Although the Soviet Union in the north collapsed four years later and the mainland had plenty of opportunities to introduce technology, some things were still backward.

For example, when it comes to fighter jets, the Soviet Union's strongest point was mathematics, so the aerodynamic shape of the aircraft they designed was a work of art, but in other aspects, they were far behind the West.

Two thousand years later, the J11 and J10 have been officially put into service in the mainland, but in the air force's target practice base, the air-to-air missile with the highest hit rate is neither the J11 nor the J10, but the much-criticized Baye.

The reason for this is the "Peace Model Plan" between the mainland and the lighthouse.

This gap continued until the 2020s, when it was caught up by generations of aviation people from the Flower Planting Family.

When the J35A made its debut at the air show and its engine spewed out yellow flames, countless technical guys with gray hair were moved to tears.

. . . . . . . .

In the afternoon, Liu Muhan went back.

Wen Leyu then quietly asked Li Ye: "You said today that opportunities are rare, have you noticed anything unusual?"

Because Fu Guiru made a lot of money in the Black Monday of Dengta Stock Market, Wen Leyu has started to worship Li Ye as a person, so she thinks all the abnormal behaviors of Li Ye may be "anticipating the enemy's moves".

Li Ye thought for a moment and said in a deep voice: "I didn't notice any abnormalities, I just analyzed some truths based on history.
The people in the Lighthouse don't understand us. They think that if the relationship is good, we are just a good follower. But the mainland is too big. Once it starts to develop rapidly, some intentions cannot be concealed.
Think about Liu Bang, think about Gou Jian.
In the past five thousand years, we, the flower-growing family, have never had the habit of being the second child."

"Second child?"

Wen Leyu looked at Li Ye in surprise, and began to savor the meaning of this "second one" in his heart.

In 1987, there were still many powerful countries in the world! No matter how you count, the flower-growing country can't seem to be ranked second!
