1988: Back to the human world for a few years

Chapter 648 What are you planning?
Don’t understand women?

Yang Mo frowned: "What do you mean?"

Zhuo Mali sighed: "Whether from the perspective of macro-narrative or logic, your and Godfather's reasoning is fine. Even from the perspective of most men, this inference is fine... However, in the eyes of other groups, it is not the case."

Yang Mo pinched his brows and sighed softly: "But I still don't understand."

Zhuo Mali looked a little bitter and helpless. She picked up the beer can and clinked it with Yang Mo's: "Actually, you have to take a lot of responsibility for this matter, brother."

Yang Mo was stunned: "Me?"

Zhuo Mali wiped the liquid from the corner of her mouth and nodded slightly: "That's right... Do you know which departments are the most important in Dahua Company and Dezhou City Real Estate Company?"

Yang Mo smiled and said, "Of course, it is Dahua's External Comprehensive Department 1, External Comprehensive Department 2, Business Department 3, Business Department 1, and the three new departments responsible for supporting the industrial upgrading of the Zhongyuan Oilfield; as well as Dezhou Urban Real Estate Company's East China Special Department 1, Special Department 2, and the General Manager's Office."

Dahua Company and Dezhou City Property Company are now extremely large, and any business department can be considered a behemoth if it is taken out individually. The same is true for Dahua Company's Business Department 2 and the several business departments of Dezhou City Property Company. However, if they are compared horizontally internally, they are not qualified. Therefore, what Yang Mo mentioned are all at the level of super departments.

Zhuo Mali nodded: "But the problem is that the person in charge of Dahua Company's External Comprehensive Department 1 is Director Zhang;"

"The director of the third business department is Li Ming;"

"The three departments responsible for supporting the upgrading of the Zhongyuan Oilfield industry have ministers who were transferred from various units, but the ones who are actually in charge of the most important chemical projects are either Zhang Jun or the people I deliberately planted there;"

"As for Dezhou Urban Real Estate Company, Zhang Bo is concurrently the director of East China Special Project Department 1; the director of East China Special Project Department 2 was jointly recommended by the city and the strategic committee members;"

"As for the General Manager's Office of Dezhou Urban Real Estate, it doesn't even have an office director now. I am in charge of all work... Even the business departments that Dezhou Urban Real Estate established at the beginning, as well as the fifth, sixth, seventh, and eighth departments of the East China Special Project, all their work now needs to report to me."

"so……"

"Brother, don't you see any problem?"

Seeing Zhuo Mali's hesitant expression, Yang Mo, who was a wise man after the event, naturally knew that she was implying that most of the important departments of the two companies were controlled by her own people, while the proportion of the Mu family and the Song family was too small.

He felt helpless at the moment: "But, isn't there the Second External Affairs Department? In terms of business scale, it even exceeds the First External Affairs Department. It is definitely the largest and most powerful super department of the two companies... And as time goes by, the scale of the Second External Affairs Department will expand exponentially."

"Besides, it's time for Dahua's General Manager's Office to make efforts this year... At present, the industrial undertaking work in DZ City has completed the preliminary negotiation stage. With the help of the China-Japan Economic Promotion Association, the General Manager's Office doesn't even need to wait until the end of the year to become a super department."

At this point, Yang Mo's eyes were filled with confusion: "Isn't this enough?"

Seeing this, Zhuo Mali couldn't help but stroke her forehead: "Brother, it seems that you haven't realized where the problem lies."

After sighing silently, Zhuo Mali's expression was a little strange: "I won't say much about other things, just talk about the Second External Affairs Department that your wife is in charge of."

"Yes, with the Northeast Asia line and the brand overseas expansion plan, the Second External Affairs Department is now definitely the number one department of Dahua Company. Except for the First External Affairs Department, which can be compared slightly, the other departments, if taken individually, are left far behind in terms of business scale."

"But the problem is that Dahua is a central enterprise, and Dezhou Urban Development is a public institution. Just comparing the business volume is meaningless. So, if we say that the External Comprehensive Department is important, where is the most important part?"

Yang Mo glanced at her and said, "Of course it's the foreign exchange usage quota... Whether it's Japanese yen or US dollar foreign exchange, the one with the most creation and usage quota is the Second External Comprehensive Department, and they also have relatively independent foreign exchange quota allocation rights."

Zhuomali nodded: "Yes, that's right."

"But the question is, does the eldest sister of the Mu family really have too much right to allocate foreign exchange indicators?"

"It's fine if Director Zhang's Department of External Affairs keeps asking for foreign exchange quotas... After all, the Central Asian springboard market is very important, and the establishment of the Horgos bonded warehouse also proves the value of this northwest line. Even if the company allocates more foreign exchange quotas, it is reasonable."

"It is barely acceptable to allocate foreign exchange quotas to support the preliminary preparation and acquisition work of the Mexican springboard market... After all, the Mexican springboard market is related to the future of the rural grassroots industry upgrading and strong village company incubation plan in Texas. This is a plan you have insisted on for more than three years. As your wife, the eldest sister of the Mu family should also fully support it."

"With these two foreign exchange indicators, most of the foreign exchange usage indicators of the External Comprehensive Department have been used up... We all know that the foreign exchange usage indicators are the most valuable hard currency now. With so many indicators moved away by you, how can the eldest sister of the Mu family have enough capital to expand her own external resources!?"

At this point, Zhuo Mali sighed again: "Well, husband and wife are one, you have your plans, and it's okay for the eldest sister of the Mu family to be wronged temporarily;"

"But the problem is that many of the important departments in the two companies were established recently... Especially because the three departments that help the Zhongyuan Oilfield industry upgrade and transformation are of great significance to the Mu family;"

"But none of these important departments have a place for the eldest sister of the Mu family. Either your direct descendants are in charge, or your brothers and our Zhuo family are secretly controlling them...even among the eight departments of the East China Project, five have to report to an outsider like me."

"What do you think the eldest sister of the Mu family will think?"

Yang Mo looked confused. "But I have discussed this with Ya'er beforehand, and my principle is to give people what they are capable of... If Ya'er has someone who meets my requirements, I will naturally not hesitate to promote him, but the problem is that she doesn't have any suitable talent."

Zhuo Mali couldn't help but roll her eyes: "Talents that meet your requirements?"

"Do you think high-end talents are like cabbages in the field? Including the Mu family, almost all the families from the headquarters don't have much business talent reserves. Where do you want the eldest sister of the Mu family to find people who meet your requirements?"

"Besides, you can only eat as much as you can afford."

"Have you forgotten that you crossed Song Wenxuan off the promotion list last year? Do you think the eldest sister of the Mu family really believes this?"

Hearing this, Yang Mo touched his nose awkwardly: "Didn't you have other considerations at the beginning... The situation is different now."

Due to Cai Zhengwei's incident and Mu Siyuan's subsequent statement, the relationship between the father-in-law and the son-in-law has been greatly eased, so naturally there won't be as many concerns as before... However, this also exposed a big problem of Yang Mo, his desire for control is too strong, and his sense of crisis is too strong.

Zhuo Mali glanced at him with a half-smile: "It's said that husband and wife are one body. From a woman's perspective, your things should always be half of mine... So, your behavior of eating and taking everything will naturally make the eldest sister of the Mu family think something."

“But that’s not the most important thing.”

"The most important thing is that you have already used up almost all of the foreign exchange quota of the Second External Affairs Department, and the remaining amount is only enough for the eldest sister of the Mu family to maintain the most basic external relations... But even so, your childhood friend sent her a series of reimbursement requests, and you still forced the eldest sister of the Mu family to approve them."

"Do you know what we women would think in this situation?"

Hearing Tugou's name, Yang Mo frowned: "What do you think?"

Zhuomali sighed sadly: "I will feel insecure...very insecure, a sense of security that you men cannot understand!"

"The unfortunate thing is that you are going to be promoted soon. It is still a big unknown whether you will be seconded after the promotion or whether you will stay in Texas."

"So if you were a woman in this situation, what would you think?"

Yang Mo spread his hands: "Unfortunately, I am a man."

Seeing this, Zhuomali did not keep the secret: "I said, husband and wife are one body, and any woman will naturally regard her husband's property and resources as her own;"

"So after realizing that she was facing a double crisis in her relationship with her husband and her husband's career, given the character of the eldest sister of the Mu family, the best choice was to take back what should have belonged to her... In this way, at least these things would still belong to this family."

"Of course, if the relationship between you and your spouse remains the same, then these things will naturally belong to this small home of you and the eldest sister of the Mu family;"

"But if there is a crisis in your relationship, then these things will naturally become the property of the Mu family."

"But there are some things that cannot be said openly, nor can they be asked for openly... After all, you are known for your strong character. If you open your mouth and anger you, the eldest sister of the Mu family, who already has a strong sense of crisis, will naturally be afraid that your previous relationship will be in trouble."

"If we can't ask for it openly, what should we do?"

At this point, Zhuo Mali pointed to her nose in self-mockery: "Then the most cost-effective approach is to kick an outsider like me out!"

"After all, I am an outsider with too much power in my hands, but I am also a poor family with few resources. I have power but not enough control." "Once I am kicked out, with the Mu family... no, it should be said that with the current influence and resources of the eldest sister of the Mu family, once she takes my place, it will be easy to insert enough people in. After a little consolidation, it will be a position that no one can take away."

"You and I both know that this is a natural thing... It is well known that you are short of people, and as your wife, the eldest sister of the Mu family is definitely the first choice to replace me."

"And with the natural advantages of her status and legality, even if she places more people in Dezhou City Real Estate Company, there will be no one to use. You have no better way than to support her... And if you are transferred at that time, believe me, with your wife's status, even if there is a new fight, those people will definitely not be able to grab too much of the cake because of their concerns."

"Believe me, the eldest sister of the Mu family definitely has this kind of means!"

After saying that, Zhuo Mali tilted her head and looked at Yang Mo: "Look, after what I said, isn't the logic here easy to clarify?"

Yang Mo's eyes twitched.

God damn sense of security!
What you mean is that I suddenly wanted a child yesterday, also for this damn sense of security?
Am I, Yang, so untrustworthy?
Thinking of this, Yang Mo stared at the peach in front of him: "Then why didn't you tell me at the beginning?"

Zhuo Mali spread her hands helplessly: "It's just speculation, how can I tell you?"

Zhuo Mali smiled somewhat resentfully and looked at Yang Mo: "Besides, what can be done if I say it... after all, you are husband and wife?"

Yang Mo frowned: "So, when you offered to resign, it wasn't just a test, but you really had this in mind?"

Combining the before and after, Yang Mo easily figured out some things.

Zhuo Mali nodded, looking very innocent: "There is nothing I can do. You are husband and wife after all!"

Yang Mo wrote the word "川" between his eyebrows: "So what happened to you later...?"

He was asking about Zhuo Mali's initiative to throw herself into his arms. Originally, he thought that she had no choice but to do so in order to seek protection, but when you really sort out the cause and effect relationship here, you find that it is not that simple.

Upon hearing this, Zhuo Mali chuckled, then stretched her body, showing off her domineering figure that made people's blood boil. Seeing Yang Mo's eyes, she unconsciously dodged a little, then smiled and propped up her chin: "Brother, I actually think that the eldest sister of the Mu family has overreacted to the sense of crisis... At least in my opinion, brother, you are still very tolerant of your woman."

This seems to be a bit irrelevant to the question, but in fact it answers everything.

Yang Mo naturally understood what the other party meant. After sighing a little tiredly, he was still a little puzzled: "If that's the case, why did you come back after accepting Mr. Zhao as your godfather?"

What he asked was not only about coming back to help him, but also about the other party's abnormal behavior during this period.

Zhuo Mali looked at him with a smile, and then leaned forward without any hesitation: "Brother, did I say anything to you, sister?"

Yang Mo was stunned: "What?"

Zhuo Mali laughed, but her face was not full of charm, but rather a hint of seriousness: "I remember saying that I don't really hate you, especially when you were determined to kill Wei Hongjun at all costs... Although I know it wasn't entirely for me."

"but……"

"Who cares?"

"Which woman doesn't want to meet a man who is willing to fight for her?"

As if she enjoyed seeing Yang Mo's dumbfounded expression, Zhuo Mali picked up another piece of dried tofu and put it to Yang Mo's mouth: "The most important thing is, sister, I found that although you are very capable, you don't understand women's thoughts and logic at all... It's not just you, including Director Zhang, Li Ming, Zhang Jun, and Zhang Bo, they all have similar problems."

"This is not okay."

"You know, Dahua is a central enterprise. In order to respond to the national call, nearly half of the company's employees are women... As for Dezhou City Real Estate, there are even more women."

"Many of these women are middle-level cadres, and they are middle-level cadres in core positions. Some have even become deputy ministers or ministers."

"It looks majestic on the outside, but it's full of hidden dangers on the inside."

At this point, Zhuo Mali revealed a hint of cunning mixed with charm: "So, brother, do you want to seriously consider taking me in as your sister, and then let me help you take care of the internal affairs wholeheartedly?"

Yang Mo didn't expect that he would end up facing a similar situation to those small bosses in later generations who had to rely on their finances as mistresses. He couldn't help but feel a toothache.

There are countless companies that have failed in this kind of thing in later generations, so when Zhuo Mali reminded him, Yang Mo immediately realized the seriousness of the problem... In terms of the ratio of male and female employees, and the equal pay for equal work, today's central enterprises, especially non-first-line production central enterprises, are much stricter than in later generations, even to the extent of considering it a red line.

Sure enough, no one in this world is easy to get along with.

It’s just a pity that everyone overestimated the importance of Dahua Company in Yang Mo’s heart.

After calmly glancing at someone's deliberately showing off assets, Yang Mo sighed: "Before answering you, I hope Sister Zhuo can answer a question for me."

Zhuo Mali was stunned, but her eyes became a little shrewd: "Brother, you are not happy at all."

"Don't worry, I've been keeping myself clean all these years. I haven't looked for a man, nor have I had any affair with anyone... You can't cheat on me!"

Yang Mo shook his head speechlessly: "That's not what I want to ask."

That's not it?

Zhuo Mali's expression was a little unnatural: "So you want to ask, after following you, how can I get along with the eldest sister of the Mu family?"

This matter is a bit complicated. Not only does it involve personal aspects, it is also difficult to talk about it openly.

Yang Mo smiled and said, "I plan to implement the group's restructuring after the holidays. By then, everyone will make a living based on their own abilities. I don't want to ask too much about this kind of thing."

Group restructuring?

Zhuo Mali was shocked. She naturally knew what the group restructuring meant.

At that moment, she looked at Yang Mo deeply and said, "So, what do you want to ask me, brother?"

Yang Mo sighed and turned to look at her: "Sister Zhuo, we have known each other since the founding of Dahua Company. You have seen everything I have done in the past two years. You even managed a lot of things directly."

After a slight pause, Yang Mo's eyes looked a little distant: "So, what I want to ask you is...what do you think I am trying to achieve by doing these things?"

What is the picture?
When Zhuomali heard this question, she looked a little strange.

you still need to ask?

Your strength and status today are enough to explain everything.

But she soon realized something was wrong. If the answer was really that simple, Yang Mo could just carry her to the hotel and throw her onto the bed. There was no need to ask such an easy question.

and so……

What does this man want?

As she pondered deeply, Zhuomali's eyes became distant...
