"Director Li"

"Welcome, welcome!"

Knowing that the shipyard negotiation and coordination meeting was progressing smoothly, Li Huaide also waited at the Trade Management Center early.

Li Xuewu took the initiative to greet him as soon as he came in. He also expressed his welcome to Andrew and his party who had returned from the victorious inspection.

"I am very happy to reach a cooperation with Geely Star Yacht Manufacturing Co., Ltd. in Tianjin. On behalf of..."

Li Huaide expressed his wishes for this cooperation in the lobby of the management center office building.

Everyone at the scene stood around him, listened, and applauded. It was obvious that he was really happy.

Li Xuewu and Xu Sinian were standing on the same side, but they were muttering in their hearts: You are happy too early!

Looking across Gao Yaqin and others, the three of them have returned to their respective teams.

Li Huaide was talking happily in the middle, and the casual team from the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs had already discussed it.

According to the information passed back by the three people, not only the accompanying team staying in Jinmen was doing the work, but also the ministry leaders in the capital were also making arrangements.

Only Li Huaide was busy yesterday and didn't pay attention to the reactions of these people. He thought they were all happy that the steel rolling mill was going to sign a big contract.

Until the end of his speech, Director of the Foreign Affairs Office Sha Qizhi sent Andrew and his team to repair and prepare for the next signing ceremony.

Li Huaide attended a temporary office meeting at the request of Gao Yaqin and others.

In the large conference room of the Trade Management Center, people from the steel rolling mill, the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation, the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stood in separate places.

Gao Yaqin, who had long been warned by Li Xuewu's eyes, gritted her teeth and looked at the somewhat confused Li Huaide, and said: "Director Li, our foreign trade department does not agree with this cooperation."

"What?"

Li Huaide frowned, thinking he heard wrongly.

He glanced at the other party with some suspicion, then looked at the atmosphere in the conference room, and realized that they were not cheering for him just now.

"Do you know what you're talking about?"

"To be precise, we do not agree with the rolling mill's declaration process for this project."

Gao Yaqin said with a serious face: "We have the right to supervise and stop this kind of de facto operation that is divorced from foreign economic and trade supervision and yet has actual foreign trade."

"Especially!"

She looked at Liu Shaozong, who was sitting opposite, and said: "We are firmly opposed to this form of external operation that relies on the export of industrial capabilities as a condition for declaration."

"What's the meaning?"

Li Huaide is a little out of his mind now. They finally reached an agreement with the Italians, but the foreign trade and economic people came out to object.

"I just object to the project being outside the scope of foreign economic and trade supervision."

Li Xuewu sat behind him and quietly explained: "It should be related to operations, foreign exchange and the management of foreign-related projects."

Li Huaide nodded clearly, looked at Gao Yaqin and was about to speak, but Zhou Gancheng beat him to it.

Under the serious gazes of the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, he expressed his concerns about the project very directly, wearing a somewhat funny white gauze.

The circumstances investigated include the vague background investigation of Italian businessman Andrew, the lack of supervision over the project's financial operation control, and the steel rolling mill's lack of adequate foreign-related security guarantees for the project...

Li Huaide understood every word of what he said, but when they were put together, it was a bit vague.

And Li Xuewu sat behind Li Huaide like a translator, explaining to him what the other person meant.

Zhou Gancheng also used the sentence "I do not agree with the cooperation on this project" as his concluding remarks to complete the opinion report of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

Xu Sinian was a little anxious and took the initiative to explain the cooperation of this project and the issues involved in the cooperation process.

He wanted to take the initiative to explain, fearing that these people would not understand or have any objections to them.

No one from the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs would listen to his explanation. They were speaking or asking questions one after another, emphasizing that this kind of foreign trade behavior risks the penetration of bourgeoisism and should be resisted.

Good guy!

Before Li Huaide had time to say a word, the discussion situation at the scene slipped directly to such a depth.

If it slides further, will he have to take the blame and resign and go home to have his children?

He really didn't understand how the Ministry of Foreign Affairs came together with the Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation and clearly opposed the shipyard's cooperation project.

There must be a reason for this. Why was there no news coming back during the inspection in Yingcheng?

Li Xuewu could understand the look in his eyes, and explained in a low voice later that during the camp inspection, the heads of the three departments acted alone and were not with the factory.

Even if there is a small meeting, it is not held in one place. When asked at a big meeting, they just say that they have no objection.

Anyway, the explanation given to Li Huaide was that as the leader of the team, he had no idea about their attitudes and opinions. This was purely a deliberate attempt by the three of them to cause trouble.

Li Huaide is not a fool. He must not believe what Li Xuewu said.

But the current situation is here. Even if Li Xuewu offends others, or someone really wants to set up a steel rolling mill, it is impossible for both units to be affected.

How capable this is!

In order to express his determination and prove his innocence, Li Xuewu took the initiative to stand up and once again emphasized the identity and source of the business relationship of Andrew and his party.

He focused on the cooperation during the Yangcheng Trade Fair, and also talked about the importance that the leaders above attach to foreign trade work.

Regarding the issues raised by foreign trade and economic cooperation, he followed Xu Sinian's words and focused on the nature of the cooperation between the steel rolling mill and Geely Star Company.

Based on the ship production qualification reported to the Ministry of Industry, it is OEM for Geely Star Enterprises, while Geely Star provides guidance and feedback on advanced foreign technologies.

For trade relations, it is a two-way cooperation, with the particularity of financial and technical exchanges, and should be under the vertical management of the Ministry of Industry.

Regarding foreign exchange funds, Li Xuewu also emphasized the significance and great influence of ship economy and trade.

It emphasized the capital management and technical management security required by Geely Star in cooperation.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In order not to cause trade risks, but also to cooperate with Geely Star safely, we can only cooperate in this form.

Li Huaide nodded in agreement after listening to Li Xuewu's speech.

He was also thinking that maybe the two departments were coveting this project, or the relationship between them had not been properly handled.

In the process of explanation, Li Xuewu has already expressed the background of this project, and also explained that the steel rolling mill is inevitable.

Using both hard and soft tactics, Deputy Director Li's speech was clear and connotative than Xu Sinian's.

He thought to himself, we have said this, Deputy Director Li has made it so clear, you should know what is going on, right?

However, before Li Huaide could express his pride and confidence, the officers and researchers of the two departments were determined to keep this issue open to the public.

Foreign economic and trade emphasizes external control.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is always worried about external risks.

No matter how you explain it, it's useless. It seems that only cooperation with steel rolling mills has such control and risks.

Li Huaide felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. No matter how good-tempered he was, he was still dissatisfied with the speeches of the two departments.

It's just that he can bear it now and wants to take the initiative to stand up and use his identity to suppress him.

But it was really strange today. Everyone could speak, but he couldn't.

Before Liu Shaozong spoke, he took the initiative to express his affirmation and support for the implementation policy of the steel rolling mill shipbuilding project.

This actually gave Li Huaide, who was eager to speak, some relief. As long as someone helps, it's not too bad. The Ministry of Industry is on his side.

Liu Shaozong sternly elaborated and emphasized the significance and impact of the project from the perspective of the Ministry of Industry.

It also expresses the importance that the leaders of the Ministry of Industry attach to this project and their positive attitude towards the development of the steel rolling mill towards the collectivization goal.

In his speech, he pointed out that the suspicion of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation is unrealistic, interferes with development, and affects the overall situation.

During the project approval process, the Ministry of Industry guided the entire process and coordinated an investigation into the business background of Italian businessman Andrew.

As for shipbuilding business policies, the Ministry of Industry also has the right and ability to help steel rolling mills obtain more advanced technology and financial support.

At the end of his speech, Liu Shaozong reiterated that the steel rolling mill shipbuilding project was in compliance, that there was no risk of bourgeois infiltration, and that the project should be supported.

Li Huaide gradually understood what he said.

It seems that it is not just a problem with the steel rolling mill, but also the opinion of the Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Affairs against the Ministry of Industry's monopoly.

Now he felt a little more confident and felt that it was time for him to speak.

But, today's office meeting is going to stifle him to death. Everyone can speak, but he is not given a chance to speak.

Every time he was about to speak, someone was rushing to speak, and he couldn't interrupt them.

Think about it, as the head of a steel rolling mill, how uncomfortable it must be for him to hold back if he is not allowed to speak.

Hey! The more uncomfortable the better!

Li Xuewu was sitting behind him, watching his little movements under the table with great anxiety.

Are you anxious?

I have to make you more anxious, so anxious that you get angry!

Li Huaide wanted to speak, but Gao Yaqin's foreign trade team once again got in front of him and began to refute Liu Shaozong's speech one by one.

Under the leadership of Zhou Gancheng, people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs also began to preach to people from the Ministry of Industry about the discipline of foreign affairs management.
