Chapter 1519 Forgive and Forgive
"What are we even discussing? What, do you think you, Director Sun, can offer your opinion on this? How about we discuss it and get you promoted to ministerial level this year?"
After hearing Sun Xianjin's words, Li Ye realized that Sun Xianjin had heard the rumor about "sending him to the Southwest," and that Sun Xianjin took it very seriously and wanted to discuss and analyze it with Li Ye.
However, given Li Ye's current rank, if he were to be "promoted" to Southwest Heavy Truck, it wouldn't be a matter of a single leader's "words"; it would require several leaders to exchange opinions and hold a meeting to make the decision.
Let alone Sun Xianjin and Li Ye's ranks, even someone one rank higher wouldn't be able to offer their opinions, which is why Li Ye jokingly said that Sun Xianjin's research was just nonsense.
However, Li Ye remembered what Sun Xianjin had just said, so he asked, "You just mentioned that this rumor, is it possible that someone deliberately spread it to your ears?"
Sun Xianjin nodded and said, "Brother Yi, to be honest, the rumor I heard today not only concerns you, but also me."
Because they said they were sending a young team to the southwest this time, and they were vaguely implying that I should work with you.”
Sun Xianjin chuckled: "Brother Yi, I don't want to go to the Southwest either, but if you go, I guess I won't be able to escape. The higher-ups will call me in for a talk, and can I object? But if you don't go, hehehehe, then nothing will happen to me, right?"
"That's impossible. We're both young people in our thirties, absolutely impossible."
Li Ye immediately refuted Sun Xianjin's words.
Although the trend of "younger people being recruited" is not uncommon nowadays, transferring Li Ye to Southwest Heavy Truck to manage the situation is already an exceptional promotion. How could they possibly pair him with someone as young as Sun Xianjin? They would definitely send a "mature and prudent" person to help Li Ye oversee things.
But Sun Xianjin looked at Li Ye for a few seconds and then said, "Brother, I'm young, but you're not. Besides, if we assigned you someone like Shang Bin as a partner, you definitely wouldn't want to go to the Southwest."
"Brother, if I offered you the chance to become the local tyrant of tens of thousands of people at Southwest Heavy Truck, wouldn't I be tempted?"
Li Ye was taken aback for a moment, then asked in return, "Do you think I should go to the southwest?"
"It's not that I think you should go, it's that other people think you should go."
Sun Xianjin said, "Southwest Heavy Truck's situation has actually been quite bad for a long time. The higher-ups didn't want this old company to completely collapse, so they tried many remedial measures, but these patchwork repairs were basically useless."
In this situation, everyone reached a consensus that "severe cases require strong medicine," so when those colleagues didn't return, everyone assumed it was to pave the way for a major transformation at Southwest Heavy Truck.
However, choosing that "strong medicine" is extremely difficult; it requires both ability and funding, and ideally, it shouldn't require too much support from higher authorities.
Li Ye chuckled: "So you mean everyone thinks highly of me!"
Sun Xianjin said helplessly, "Brother, there really isn't anyone more suitable than you. You've managed the branch factory so well these past few years."
From the establishment of the first branch factory until now, you've only received 200,000 yuan in start-up capital, which was given to you by the Light Vehicle Company. Now you've saved the Light Vehicle Company, and its future development prospects are incredibly good. You're the best candidate to turn the tide and expand the territory!
"Yes, yes, I was an unparalleled warrior, invincible and capable of taking on a thousand men single-handedly, and finally died on the battlefield, my body wrapped in a horse's hide."
Hahaha~
Sun Xianjin and Li Ye both laughed.
These two weren't fresh-faced young men who would get carried away and declare they'd do anything for someone just because they heard someone praise them as "young and promising, you're the only one fit for the job."
The more capable you are, the more problems you can solve, the more work you'll have to do, and the more problems you'll have to solve.
Once you've solved your own problems, then you'll be asked to solve problems that others can't solve.
The problem is that if you don't have any cunning or connections, even if you solve all the problems, you might only get a compliment like "You're really capable, well done."
After being assigned "pioneering missions" twice in his previous life, Li Ye completely stopped believing in such nonsense. If it weren't for Wen Leyu's powerful assistance in this life, he wouldn't have performed so well. It would have been better to just stay put and behave himself.
That's why some people have offered such heavy and outrageous bargaining chips this time, allowing Li Ye and Sun Xian to go in and solve the mess at Southwest Heavy Truck.
But this bargaining chip is a huge temptation for those who have toiled their whole lives, waiting for just one opportunity, but it means nothing to Li Ye.
He knew far too many opportunities.
“Advanced, I can tell you that so far, I haven’t heard a single word about sending me to the Southwest.”
"Phew~"
Sun Xianjin patted his chest: "That means they've been all in the dark. You have no idea, I've been feeling uneasy all afternoon since I heard the news."
Li Ye laughed and scolded, "I said, 'Advanced,' if you want to ask me anything in the future, don't beat around the bush like this, okay?"
Sun Xianjin jumped three feet high: "How can this be a small matter? This is a huge matter, okay? A huge matter!"
"Damn, the sky's not going to fall, what's the big deal? Let's drink, let's drink."
"Mmm, let's drink!"
...
What Li Ye considered a trivial matter that wouldn't cause the sky to fall was a huge deal to Sun Xianjin, and also a huge deal to others.
When Shang Bin told Cong Jin Hong that he was going to propose to his superiors that Li Ye go to Southwest Heavy Truck to preside over the company's reform, Cong Jin Hong was also full of disbelief.
After all, Jin Hong has worked at Southwest Heavy Truck for so many years and has never had the chance to even get a foot in that position. Why should an outsider like Li Ye get away with it? Jin Hong is more qualified than Li Ye.
But she couldn't say these ambitious words directly.
After a long silence, Jin Hong gritted her teeth and said, "Why? The Southwest is our old territory. Why should Li Ye reap the rewards?"
Furthermore, the company's development over the years has left many unresolved issues. If Li Ye seizes on some of these problems and makes a mountain out of a molehill, we might be in big trouble.”
Jin Hong's words were somewhat ambiguous.
Because Southwest Heavy Truck has received government funding for decades but has not achieved anything, there are bound to be various "problems" that cannot withstand investigation. If Li Ye plays the trick of "investigating back twenty years", Shang Bin and Cong Jinhong will be implicated.
Putting aside everything else, the financial transactions between Jin Hong and Lao Ou are a serious violation of regulations, enough to send both of them to jail for a few days.
However, Shang Bin said calmly, "Since it is a corporate reform, then naturally we should let bygones be bygones. If we were to investigate some old, trivial matters, wouldn't that cause panic among the employees?"
Therefore, there must be some agreement on this matter; otherwise, why should it be his turn, someone who hasn't even grown a full beard yet?
Jin Hong seemed to realize something and finally said, "Let bygones be bygones? Then I agree to join you in making this proposal."
"good."
Shang Bin nodded, then added, "By the way, I called you a few days ago and asked you to balance Lao Ou's accounts. Have you done that?"
Jin Hong asked in surprise, "Didn't you just say you'd let bygones be bygones? Why do you want me to settle the accounts?"
"you"
Shang Bin was so angry he almost cursed.
If Jin Hong hadn't been incompetent in handling the office building project and hadn't staged a suicide attempt on the rooftop, why would she have attracted the attention of those above? And why would Shang Bin have gone to such lengths to patch up the mess and divert attention?
