Chapter 486: Pushing the Limits
"Chen Qing, you really like to push your luck!"
As much as Xi Gaomin liked Chen Qing before, he now hates her.
Chen Qing reminded impatiently: "Detailed geological survey report."
Only with this report could she successfully pass Director Zhang's review.
Originally, the comrades from the State Planning Commission had contacted Xi Gaomin, but Xi Gaomin always found various excuses to delay.
Isn't the purpose to let her come to ask for help!
Chen Qing frowned slightly when he saw her with her arms crossed and a relaxed posture, as if she was as fearless as a dead pig.
Xi Gaomin said, "Chen Qing, I know you are insidious and cunning, so I applied for the fabric for making these clothes in advance."
She smiled smugly.
I've been tricked so many times.
It's time for her to grow up a bit.
The draft is in Chen Qing's hands. Given her mean nature, she will definitely use the draft to take advantage of her.
As expected.
Chen Qing, this treacherous villain, wanted to use the design drawings to control her, but fortunately she had prepared a backup plan!
Chen Qing raised his eyebrows: "Director Xi means that he is unwilling to give me the detailed geological survey report."
"How could that be? Comrade Chen is my great benefactor. If I had the detailed geological survey report with me, I would give it to you right away. But there's a problem with our data room, and most of the data has been sent to the Revolutionary Committee for review. This back and forth will take at least a week. Comrade Chen, can you please be patient and wait?"
Seeing Chen Qing feeling depressed, Xi Gaomin felt refreshed, as if he had eaten a big sweet watermelon in the scorching summer heat!
The hidden joy in her heart was clearly revealed on her face.
Chen Qing tied her hair into a low ponytail and casually made it into a chicken feather bun.
Xi Gaomin: "You...what are you doing?"
Why are you tying your hair for no reason?
It was originally a casual and somewhat messy hairstyle, but Chen Qing had skin as white as snow and superior facial features. When she tied her hair into a low ponytail that highlighted her gentle temperament, her whole body became sharp.
Chen Qing: "Nothing, it's hot and I felt uncomfortable so I tied it up. Just because I had an unpleasant discussion with Director Xi doesn't mean I have an unpleasant discussion with the deputy director."
She stood up and was about to leave.
Xi Gaomin stopped her and said, "Are you planning to team up with the deputy director of our Third Garment Factory to target me?"
Chen Qing felt somewhat powerless at this moment: "Director Xi has already arranged everything, so I'll admit defeat and go find someone else for help. Isn't that exactly what you want?"
Xi Gaomin felt it was both right and wrong.
Because she is the person who checks and balances the dual power of the leaders of the Third Garment Factory. If Chen Qing suddenly intervenes to help the deputy director, then the deputy director's power will definitely expand rapidly.
Most of the leaders of the Third Garment Factory are competitive and love to fight. In the end, wouldn’t they just want to get rid of her as the factory director?
"If I give you the report, what can you give me?"
Chen Qing folded his arms and looked at her calmly: "Director Xi, you always seem to care about short-term benefits."
"What do you mean?!" Xi Gaomin asked coldly.
Chen Qing: "The literal meaning is that you are short-sighted. You have now monopolized most of the fabrics exported to foreign countries, and this is for all factories for a period of one year. You are really bold!
But have you ever thought about other factories? Have you ever thought about someone suing you for monopoly? And have you ever thought about what would happen if a customer suddenly had an accident and didn't want this batch of goods? Then how would you deal with this batch of fabrics?"
Sometimes she felt that some people were willing to hurt themselves just to target her, and this behavior was really puzzling to her.
No matter from which perspective, she was helping the Third Garment Factory. Because of her help, the Third Garment Factory came into the public eye and expanded rapidly, and the wages of the employees also increased. These should be benefits, right?
But the people in the third garment factory like to follow the example of their superiors.
The leadership is short-sighted.
The same goes for my subordinates.
I just love to compete with her.
It is clearly after the reform and opening up, but they still like the monarchy very much. She is like a general with great military achievements who has broken into the ranks of civil and military officials. The emperor has to be wary of her, so he targets her everywhere.
The civil and military officials felt the same way, thinking that she was here to occupy their territory.
I didn't think about how to take advantage of her at all.
He didn't even think about recruiting them properly.
Chen Qing was speechless when he saw Xi Gaomin's expression change drastically.
Because Xi Gaomin was the only female factory manager among the garment factories in the city, and the Third Garment Factory was relatively close, Chen Qing had hoped to cooperate well with them. After cooperating with them for a few times, he had figured out their personalities and was somewhat disappointed with them and himself.
Xi Gaomin: "If I give you the report, will you be able to solve the above problem for me?!"
Chen Qing: “???”
What is she talking about?
Xi Gaomin: "Isn't this what you wanted? You wanted to see me beg you, and now I've begged you, haven't I? Are you satisfied?"
Chen Qing: “???”
Her eyes were glazed over.
Why.
no.
She said so much, but in Xi Gaomin's understanding, was this what she meant?
"I mean, I hope you can have a longer-term vision in the future..."
"Yes, when it comes to long-term vision, no one can compare to our Comrade Chen. He had already made a grand plan a year ago!"
Xi Gaomin sneered.
There was overwhelming anger in his eyes.
She had gone to great lengths to find so many people. Had she really been working day and night during this period? This was all to prevent her trump card from becoming a bargaining chip in Chen Qing's hands.
But now, the result of all my hard work is that I have become Chen Qing's handle!!!
How could she talk to Chen Qing calmly like this!
Seeing that she still had a righteous tone, Chen Qing originally thought that since she was pregnant, she shouldn't get angry every day, as that would not be good for the child's growth.
But then again, as a mother, shouldn't I teach my children that they shouldn't always swallow their anger when dealing with people?!
"Director Xi, you were the one who first provoked me, and then you gave me up for a few sewing machines. You didn't give me any compensation afterwards, just saying that you made the wrong choice. Then you saw that my business in the machinery factory was getting bigger and bigger, and you were jealous of me, so you came to ask me for help again. At that time, I thought I needed the garment factory and the situation was urgent, so I agreed to cooperate with you.
After the cooperation, your leader has been constantly attacking me. You said that you were in charge of this matter, but we both know whether you actually did so or not.
Not only did you not care, Director Xi, you even let it go because you were jealous of me. As an outsider, I also had a good reputation in the Third Garment Factory and had won many honors.
So you naturally regard our initial cooperation as your personal achievement, and regard my lack of subsequent gratitude to you as an ungrateful person.
You are just a mother, not my mother, understand?"
