My Lord, you need to stand up!

Chapter 537 Only by paying a blood oath can one achieve great wealth and honor.
Being the leader means taking on responsibility.

The next day, Lao Geng went to Pingjing.

The television media building and the five-star hotel at the hospital entrance—both buildings must be completed quickly and to a high standard, serving as benchmarks to demonstrate strength to all parties in Beijing.

Only then could they focus all their efforts on completing the Pingjing Automobile dormitory complex, ensuring housing conversion for tens of thousands of automobile factory employees and their families.

This also serves as a model for all ministries and commissions in Beijing to see the new housing reform.

No matter how much Shangzhou and Jiangzhou do, it's not as good as doing it on the ground in Pingjing.

There are actually no technical problems with frame or shear wall structures that are more than twenty stories high.

In the early 1980s, the main constraints were elevators and construction costs.

Just as elevator technology began to become widespread, the era of housing allocation benefits was coming to an end, and people simply couldn't afford the cost, so they all opted for cheaper brick-concrete structures.

Now, Wei Dong and his team are taking advantage of this transitional period, with both funds and technology, to build skyscrapers at an incredible pace!
After gaining extensive experience, they far surpassed their peers nationwide.

That would truly make them an iron army that dares to fight and struggle.

Rang Weidong also instructed him to recruit a large number of people from the work team of Pingjing University.

Meanwhile, Qin Yuye went to Shanghai and handed over the entire cosmetics company to Hong Tiancheng to operate.

The Jiangzhou Cosmetics Factory, which originally specialized in shampoo, will expand and increase its production capacity by replicating its production line, aiming to reach a daily output of 200,000 bottles of three different models within the year.

The total volume is approximately 30,000 tons of shampoo per year.

Hong Tiancheng estimates that the national annual demand is about 100,000 tons, and that is still below the current consumption level.

We aim to occupy one-third of the country's territory.

The small bottles were previously priced at three yuan, mainly to lower the barrier for consumers to try them.

The real volume sellers should be the large bottles priced at five yuan and the extra-large bottles priced at eight yuan.

Then, we aim to launch our cosmetics and skincare product lines during the May Day holiday.

Since they definitely won't use brands like X or Bai Nian Run Fa, they'll need to advertise on TV to boost brand awareness.

Wei Dong believed in this person who had truly led the century-old Runfa Group, and giving him 30% of the shares was his way of completely freeing him from constraints and allowing him to fully unleash his potential.

Now, let's go for it and provide comprehensive resource assistance.

In particular, this year we made an agreement with several universities in Jiangzhou to recruit as many college students as possible to expand the cosmetics company's R&D, production, and equipment departments.

But all spending money must be approved by headquarters, especially marketing and promotion authority, which is in Wei Dong's hands.

After all, marketing is the core competitiveness of a business owner.

Now, while I'm stationed in Jiangzhou, I'm starting to focus on computer production and the localization of auto parts manufacturing.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, a survey was also conducted on the sales market that had been under development for nearly two years.

The sales section chief from the Xishan factory, along with Lao Lu, who appointed Wei Dong as the vice president of sales, and Han Guobin and more than ten other regional general managers, began to travel on business.

They travel across the country, visiting markets in their respective regions and surrounding areas.

After familiarizing themselves with the situation on the front lines, they made long-distance calls to Rang Weidong in Jiangzhou to report the situation.

Consumption level, housing reform progress, degree of economic openness, public security situation, and price level.

These details can be obtained firsthand through visits.

We sorted out each place one by one.

Wei Dong had a draftsman draw a full-size national map for him, and then pinned the information from various regions to the addresses on it.

Everyone assumed the boss was thinking about the national market.

Whenever someone came to the office to report on their work, they would often see him standing with his hands on his hips in front of the national map, gesturing and marking it.

In short, everyone admired his visionary approach to the national market.

I didn't dare to speak loudly, afraid of disturbing my boss's thoughts.

Shen Cuiyue didn't bother him, but spent all her time on the greenery, decoration, and renovation of the rooftop terrace.

After Wei Dong and the others had all gone to lie down on the ground, the remaining work was done as quickly as autumn leaves falling in the wind.

Since they're all "illegal constructions," the main point is to do whatever you want with them.

The two-story "Hui-style" classical buildings with roofed attics are decorated and renovated by everyone based on pictures in the catalog.

It's quite a mess.

Fortunately, Liu Xiaoyong, the skilled draftsman, was clever enough to take the on-site photos and sketchbooks to consult his architecture professors.

People may be out of touch with new international design styles, but they are too familiar with these traditional styles, and they keep saying that it's all nonsense.

When they arrived, they found that the building was already completed and couldn't be changed, so they could only focus on landscaping and decoration.

Because the initial sketches were discussed between Wei Dong and the fashion designer.

The rooftop, measuring 50 meters by 150 meters, has a 10-meter-high white wall with gray brick trim connecting to the sixth floor, while the other three sides are railings made of brick.

So, taking advantage of the fact that there are elevators at both ends, a winding "S"-shaped path was created, with small buildings on both sides.

She had imagined a relaxing, idyllic rural scene, but to cram in as many houses as possible, the paths were only two or three meters wide, resembling the winding, meandering hutongs of Beijing, and even more so, the kind of treacherous, honey trap-like alleyways. Shen Cuiyue covered her mouth and chuckled as Liu Xiaoyong reported the professors' and experts' comments.

Then we should put even more effort into transforming the alley into a honey trap style.

He let Wei Dong visit often, and in an attempt to cover up the truth, he turned several of the outer courtyards into restaurants.

Every day, several large buckets of food and rice are brought up from downstairs to the cafeteria, so office staff don't have to go downstairs and squeeze into queues with thousands of people.

It is well-liked by management.

Entering the rooftop area casually gives you the feeling of eating in a restaurant in a modern ancient town scenic area.

Especially when you see the boss casually eating a bite and then playing basketball on the side, looking full of energy, it just makes you feel that the company is full of vitality.

That way, people won't think that the rooftop garden is where bosses and executives live, or that it's some kind of high-and-mighty, mysterious, and distant place.

Just as March was passing by in such a tense but orderly manner, and we were preparing to move at the end of the month, Qin Yuye called: "Steve has flown to Shanghai. You should come and meet him as soon as possible. It seems that he had some problems on his end, which caused the delay, but he really approves of your new computer design."

Recognition equals money.

Wei Dong would definitely not go against money.

They set off immediately, but this time they were able to bring along Liu Xiaoyong and a few other technicians who had taken architectural design courses and were relatively good at foreign languages.

Even if a few business trips have taken them to Beijing and Shanghai, they basically stay on construction sites and have almost no time to visit these metropolises that represent the essence of Chinese architecture.

There's no need to look at Jiangzhou; the White Building is now the pinnacle of local architecture.

The most stylish commercial office building even recently opened a civil aviation ticket office in the city center in its beautiful reception hall.

Even if Wei Dong was busy at the White Building in the morning, he could immediately call to book tickets upon hearing the news.

So when the infrastructure technicians heard that they would be flying there, they were so happy they were shaking with joy.

Wei Dong, already showing signs of becoming a frequent flyer, habitually called Shi Tou and Ram over to set off.

He also told Dong Xueqing not to go to the airport to see them off: "Everyone is out running around, so I'll leave the house to you and Shen Laosan. Communicate and keep in touch. I'll be back soon before moving."

Fengchu now requested a goodbye kiss, and asked Weidong to move the baby in his arms a little to make it easier to do so.

Xiaodie then made a loud "tsk tsk tsk" sound to express that it was okay!
She was pressing her chest against Wei Dong's chest, and now she had practiced that sideways turning and squinting movement to a very high degree.

Dong Xueqing chuckled, "You're in a much better mood now. Remember to take good care of Daddy."

Actually, it has an impact. The little chubby girl who used to resemble her mother has now become sickly and weak, and she doesn't even want to look at her aunt much when she's leaning on her father.

Make Weidong laugh too; as long as there's some interaction, that's enough.

Dog Egg, who brought Stone and Ram, usually lived near the old factory and was only responsible for the city's transportation and delivering ingredients to a few mala tang shops.

On the way, we casually mentioned the site of the injection factory, and staff from the district came to survey and measure it.

Could it be that someone has taken a liking to building a house here?

Wei Dong realized that Chi Shiming had applied last year to develop the land into residential buildings, but the application had been delayed.

They initially thought the city had some concerns, but when the North District Commercial Center was finalized at the end of the year, they learned that the city was actually planning to build a bridge.

The approach bridge area is right on the road in front of the injection factory.

It seems that the supporting construction should begin now.

Then the only option is to leave the land vacant and wait until the cross-river bridge is completed before deciding how to develop it. There will definitely be a priority.

However, according to later theories, this plot of land located at a major transportation intersection should appreciate in value.

Fortunately, in the area where houses are currently under construction, no one in Jiangzhou dares to snatch a tooth from Wei Dong's tiger's mouth.

After all, there are land plots everywhere now, so there's no need to provoke someone as wealthy and influential as him.

So it's a coincidence that Chi Shiming is now focusing his attention on Shanghai.

There were still flights with Maozi and Huazi on board. One guy got so excited that he drank a few more glasses, which must have made Wei Dong silently cross him out.

After arriving in Shanghai in just over two hours, Qin Yuye came to pick them up in a Bluebird, Civic, and Flying Tiger minivan: "Hurry up, they won't arrive until tonight. Why don't you take a look around and check out the work here first?"

Even Lao Zhang, Wu Shengyun, and Chi Shiming tacitly agreed that only Qin Yuye was qualified to represent the entire Shanghai area.

Wei Dong also felt that this kind of work attitude was good.

First, we'll take a tour of the electronics industrial park south of the airport.

The overall project, which began last June, has seen the new display picture tubes from the vacuum electronics plant already produced, and the display plant and computer assembly plant have passed the trial production period.

That's why Wei Dong submitted his suggestions for this year's new models to Apple.

The 40,000-square-meter Dongsheng Electronic Industrial Park still has nearly half of its space available for expansion.

It is said that the city has applied to expand the original industrial park, which was originally several hundred thousand square meters, by two or three times.

Then the commercial center, hotel, office building, and apartment complex jointly developed by Hong Kong businessmen were given to another plot of land next door.

We are fully committed to supporting this computer industrial park, which truly possesses an internationally advanced level of standards.

What Wei Dong felt now was that the Hong Kong businessmen's operation was just a scaled-down version of an international industrial park.
