Chapter 1579 If you fall behind, you will be attacked.
Back in 1993, not only was the Skynet system still nonexistent, but other criminal investigation technologies were also underdeveloped. Therefore, even if criminals did not go abroad, there were cases where they could live in anonymity for decades.
For example, Jin Hong has never been found.
Therefore, many people suspected that Shang Bin and Zhuo Minglan had suddenly lost contact and that he had heard some rumors beforehand and ran away with his mistress, just like Huang He.
However, since the capital had notified Li Ye, and Dong Shan also needed to find someone, Li Ye had to make an appearance and find someone as well.
To my surprise, I actually found it.
Li Ye found the person through Captain Pang Zhongxian, and after finding the person, the expressions of Li Ye and Dong Shan were quite interesting.
It turns out that Shang Bin and Zhuo Minglan went to Tianchi for tourism a few days ago. When they stayed overnight, they were "invited" by Captain Pang's colleagues because they did not have a marriage certificate. Originally, it was just a matter of paying a fine according to regulations, but Zhuo Minglan's series of shady moves led to Geng Yunping also getting imprisoned.
Captain Pang, with a pained expression, apologized to Li Ye: "I'm sorry, Brother Li Ye. It was originally just a small matter, but your leader wouldn't reveal his identity or unit. Also..."
Furthermore, his secretary was sharp-tongued and insulted several of my colleagues quite severely, saying things like "love is a matter of personal freedom" and "outsiders have no right to interfere," which resulted in such a huge misunderstanding.
But don't worry, I've already contacted my old classmate, and he should be released by now. I'll treat you all to a meal later to apologize."
Thanks to Li Ye's help, he was riding high these days, receiving awards and commendations, and a promotion and raise seemed like a sure thing. Who would have thought that his colleague would actually take down Li Ye's boss?
In a place where eating dumplings without soy sauce is considered problematic, a sharp-tongued woman will only bring trouble to men and may suffer a lot!
Pang Zhongxian was unaware of the relationship between Li Ye and Shang Bin, so even though it wasn't his subordinates who directly dealt with Shang Bin and Zhuo Minglan, he still felt very embarrassed.
Family scandals shouldn't be aired in public, so Li Ye didn't want to bring it up, but he was very interested in the little story between Shang Bin and Zhuo Minglan.
So he said to Pang Zhongxian frankly, "No, no, no, I'm the one who's causing you trouble. How about this? Tonight, I'll treat you and Xiao Lu to a drink, firstly to express my gratitude, and secondly to commemorate our acquaintance."
"How could I let you treat me? I'll invite your Secretary Shang. Is he coming back today? If he is, I'll arrange for someone of high rank to accompany him."
"He went straight back to the capital. I guess he felt embarrassed. Besides, if he came, we wouldn't be able to drink to our hearts' content, would we?"
"Brother Li Ye is right. We straightforward people get along best when we drink together."
Seeing Li Ye and Pang Zhongxian with their arms around each other, Dong Shan knew that his plan to seek "help" from Shang Bin had failed.
Shang Bin's weakness has fallen into Li Ye's hands, so he is unlikely to have any conflict with Li Ye in the short term.
Dong Shan felt like crying but had no tears left. It seemed that ever since she met Li Ye, her previously smooth-sailing good luck had suddenly turned into a series of misfortunes.
Left with no other choice, Dong Shan had to have a frank and sincere talk with Li Ye.
"Li Ye, Southwest Heavy Truck needs a new product that can be produced immediately. It's still unknown when your Kamaz project will be successful. So, for the sake of the livelihoods of tens of thousands of workers in Southwest, could you give me this chance?"
And don't worry, once your KamAZ is successfully developed, I guarantee I'll switch to production immediately and fully support your project."
Li Ye looked at Dong Shan and said with a smile, "Old Dong! Actually, you can start supporting my project now. Setting up and debugging a production line takes time!"
We've basically finished developing the engine now. Once your production line is ready, it won't take much time."
I'm not going to let you lead me by the nose.
Dong Shan truly had no words to express his suffering.
What Li Ye said made a lot of sense, but Dong Shan had his own "little scheme".
If Dong Shan accepts the technical solution from the First Factory, given the First Factory's style, it will definitely exercise various forms of "long-arm jurisdiction" over Southwest Heavy Truck, and the First Factory will control everything from production to sales.
Moreover, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that Dong Shan must have an independent brand and cannot share the "Jingcheng" trademark with the branch factory.
Since Dong Shan's next step is to go public, how could he possibly "separate and go it alone" if he were too deeply involved with Li Ye?
This is the reason why Dong Shan is so determined to persist. Everyone behind him is waiting for him to list Southwest Heavy Truck and cash out. If he fails to do so, all his efforts and future prospects will vanish.
"Then let's compete fairly! You keep your people in check and stop deliberately damaging our prototypes, or we'll take this to court."
When Dong Shan said these words, there was a sense of "burning the boats" in his voice. He really didn't expect that one day he would have to rely on "strength" to win what he needed.
Li Ye curled the corners of his mouth and said with a smile, "You have a total of three vehicles. One of them is being driven by our driver. Now that vehicle is broken, we can't damage your prototype vehicle anymore!"
Without hesitation, Dong Shan replied, "We can fix it right away. What do you mean?"
That's exactly what I mean.
Li Ye said calmly, "If that car has a problem, it should be withdrawn completely. Otherwise, this won't be a prototype test, but a repair competition."
Dong Shan said angrily, "How is that possible? We only sent three cars in total."
Li Ye interrupted directly, saying, "Then you can send over two new cars, or we can withdraw two of the five prototypes."
“.”
Dong Shan fell silent.
Because Southwest Heavy Truck only has three prototype vehicles, it's impossible to get two more in a short time.
However, after a moment of silence, Dong Shan suddenly said, "Alright, let's bring in two more prototypes. The outcome is still uncertain."
Li Ye's lips curled into an even more exaggerated smile: "Okay, but I must remind you, don't try to fool me with finished vehicles from Jicheng Heavy Truck. Falsifying information will result in an immediate loss."
“.”
Dong Shan hesitated; he even felt as if Li Ye had seen right through him.
He had indeed planned to have Jicheng Heavy Truck help him falsify the exam, but now that Li Ye was on guard, should he still find someone to "take the exam for him"?
However, Dong Shan did not hesitate for long, because just two days later, another prototype of Southwest Heavy Truck broke down, also due to a cracked flywheel housing.
This time, it was driven by Dong Shan's own driver, so the possibility of human damage can be absolutely ruled out.
Dong Shan wanted to say "overloading", but why didn't the five vehicles in the first factory exceed the standard?
If you fall behind, you will be bullied.
Fairness requires strength to uphold. If you lack strength, fairness will never come your way, and you will only be passively attacked.
