Chapter 13 On Director Li’s Advantages
Director Li took a fancy to Xu Damao's ability and believed that Xu Damao was a talent, the kind of talent that would not threaten his status and power at all.
Of course, such talents must be actively recruited.
Xu Damao is not disgusted with Director Li either. Again, in the adult world, there is no right or wrong, only interests.
It is said that Director Li is a villain, but in Xu Damao's view, Director Li is the positive character.
First of all, Director Li uses money to do things. As long as you give him enough, he will use your money to do your things;
Secondly, Director Li knows people well and makes good use of them. As long as you have talent, Director Li can use you. Moreover, Director Li can tolerate people, just like Silly Zhu. Even if Silly Zhu beats up Director Li, Director Li will still reuse Silly Zhu, just because Silly Zhu has good cooking skills and talent;
Once again, Director Li protects his subordinates and protects the interests of his subordinates;
In the end, Director Li was ruthless on the surface, but he was not cruel in his heart. Later, Director Li came to power. Under the management of Director Li, the steel rolling mill did not say anything else but that no one died. Director Li made a great contribution.
Even if Director Li's nemesis is Factory Director Yang, Director Li just asks Director Yang to sweep the streets. In Xu Damao's view, this is not sweeping the streets, but is clearly protecting Director Yang.
The dispute between Director Li and Director Yang can be regarded as a dispute between gentlemen. If it were anyone else, Director Yang would sweep the streets on the first day and die suddenly the next day.
During the period when Director Li was in charge, although the steel rolling mill had various problems, the steel rolling length was completely preserved.
Rather than saying that Director Li brought trouble to the steel rolling mill, it is better to say that Director Li used his power and his backers to protect the factory and people of the steel rolling mill.
This is also the reason why Director Li was able to retreat bravely in the later period. If Director Li really did evil things, someone would have dealt with Director Li long ago.
In reality, if you meet a leader like Director Li, just smile. This is equivalent to smoke rising from the graves of your ancestors.
As for the fact that Director Li had an affair with Liu Lan, the flaws cannot be concealed. Not to mention Director Li, even Xu Damao has several good friends, let alone Director Li.
Director Li sincerely invites, Xu Damao must follow.
After arriving at Director Li's office, Director Li asked his secretary to pour two cups of tea and said with a smile: "Da Mao, you gave Lao Yang a problem this time and put him on a rack to bake. "
"Director Li, to be honest, I really didn't want to put Director Yang on the rack to bake. My original purpose was to test the deaf old lady in the courtyard where I live."
"It is rumored that the deaf old lady saved Factory Director Yang's life, and I wanted to test whether this is true. If it is true, then it will consume the favor between them; if it is not true, that is better. "
"Of course, my ultimate goal is to deal with Silly Zhu and the pension group where Silly Zhu belongs!" Xu Damao explained calmly.
In front of an old man like Director Li, playing Liaozhai is just asking for death. You can't play with him at all. You can deceive Director Yang, but you cannot deceive Director Li.
This is related to the experience of the two people.
Director Yang is from the army and has a straightforward style of doing things. Director Li has been in the officialdom since he joined the work. Who hasn't seen him? What haven't you seen?
Xu Damao asked himself that it was impossible for him to deceive someone like Director Li, so Xu Damao was very calm.
"I see. The deaf old lady did save Director Yang's life. If it weren't for the deaf old lady, Director Yang would have died in Sijiu City. However, you don't have to pay too much attention to this matter."
"The current situation was very chaotic at that time. The deaf old lady did not intend to save Factory Manager Yang, but accidentally saved Factory Manager Yang. If the deaf old lady had been interested in us, she would not be just a low-income household now. Director Li said nonchalantly.
Obviously, Director Li also knew about Factory Director Yang’s experience.
Xu Damao didn't care at all that Director Li knew about Factory Director Yang's experience, because the person who knows the other person best is often the other person's enemy.
"Whether it's intentional or not, it's a life-saving grace. You can't fake it," Xu Damao said.
"Da Mao, you are still young and you don't understand. Although people like Director Yang have various shortcomings in management, the army has made him clear about grievances and does not rub sand in his eyes."
"It doesn't matter to some people whether it's intentional or not, but for people like Director Yang, it's very clear."
“If the deaf old lady intended to save him and something happened to the deaf old lady, a person like Director Yang would risk his life to repay the favor without violating principles and disciplines;
"If something happens to the deaf old lady accidentally, it will be open to question how Director Yang can repay the favor." Director Li explained.
Xu Damao's eyes lit up. After what happened with Silly Zhu, the deaf old lady's favor should have been almost worn away.
"Da Mao, tell me about the incident in your courtyard. Why did Yi Zhonghai come forward when something happened to Silly Zhu, and the deaf old lady was also involved?" Director Li asked.
Xu Damao then recounted the grievances and grievances in the courtyard. Director Li was dumbfounded. It seemed that the beastly things in the courtyard also refreshed Director Li's three views.
"It's really a small temple with strong winds and shallow water. There are many bastards. I didn't expect that a small courtyard house would be so incredible. Damao, I'm not afraid of your jokes. I, Li, have been struggling for decades. What's the matter? I've never seen it before, but what you said today really opened my eyes." Director Li smiled.
"This may be a problem of Feng Shui. It seems that all the animals in the whole street, no, the whole area have gathered in the courtyard." Xu Damao said.
"Da Mao, please be careful, there are some words you can't mention. This is just a common thing between you and me. If you are outside, don't mention crossing the line. You don't want to be treated like Yi Zhonghai." Director Li said with a smile.
Xu Damao understood and nodded. It has to be said that Director Li's method of winning over people is force. Invisibly, like moisturizing things silently, he draws people to his front.
"Da Mao, is there something wrong with Yi Zhonghai's head? How could he be so stupid? He has no offspring to support him in his old age, so why won't he adopt one? Whether they are fleeing famine or living in the countryside, there are many families who don't have enough to eat. , can’t you just take him home and raise him as your own son?” Director Li asked puzzledly.
"First of all, this has to start with Yi Zhonghai's character. On the surface, Yi Zhonghai is extremely generous, but in fact he is extremely stingy and does great things without sacrificing his own life."
"It costs money to adopt a child. Although, with Yi Zhonghai's financial resources, he can support three people, let alone one, but he is stingy and is reluctant to spend money. How can he raise a child from childhood to adulthood? There are savings readily available.”
"Yi Zhonghai's retirement target is Jia Dongxu first, and after Jia Dongxu's death, he will be Silly Zhu."
"Si Zhu has a job and can make money. Yi Zhonghai doesn't need to spend any money to support him. Yi Zhonghai only needs to instill some specious thoughts into Si Zhu, such as respecting the elderly, so that Si Zhu can take care of him in his old age."
"The fundamental reason why Yi Zhonghai did this is that he is too suspicious. He doesn't trust anyone but himself, so he will keep the money in his own hands and will not spend his own money, but will only be generous to others. "
"Secondly, even if Yi Zhonghai really wanted to adopt a child, the deaf old lady would not agree." Xu Damao said.
"She is not related to Yi Zhonghai, so why don't she agree?" Director Li asked.
