Siheyuan: I am Banggeng's uncle

Chapter 850 Like a woman!

Because of the Western technological blockade against China, China's industrial development has always been very slow. This time, not only were they able to purchase industrial mother machines from Wu Tianlin at an extremely low price, but they were also able to arrange for people to learn how to operate and maintain these machines. This was undoubtedly a great joy for them.

Several leaders held a special meeting to prevent anyone from placing their cronies in the training program. They even assigned Wang Deming, who was known for his stubbornness, to be in charge of the students' enrollment procedures. This was all to prevent anyone from secretly trying to place their cronies in the training program.

Recalling what Wu Tianpeng said, Li Huaide's intuition told him that someone must have taken advantage of the loopholes in the selection process to place people with connections into the training class. However, he still did not know which of these trainees was the person who had taken advantage of the loopholes to join the training class.

"Director Li! I've brought you the list of trainees." Just as Li Huaide was sitting in the logistics office, pondering who had connections, Xiao Zhang walked into the office from outside with a form and politely reported to Li Huaide.

Upon seeing the list handed to him by Xiao Zhang, Li Huaide immediately took it and thanked Xiao Zhang with a smile, saying, "Xiao Zhang! Thank you! I'll keep this list for now and return it to you later after I've read it."

After hearing Li Huaide's instructions, Xiao Zhang politely responded and then turned and left the logistics office.

After watching Xiao Zhang leave, Li Huaide picked up the list of students that Xiao Zhang had just brought and began to look at it carefully. Even after he had read through all the students' information, he still couldn't find out who among them was a person with connections.

Li Huaide frowned, put down the list in his hand, pondered it carefully for a moment, then reached for the phone, shook the handset a few times, picked up the receiver, and politely said, "Is this the switchboard? Could you please transfer me to Vice President Jiang's office?"

"Hello! This is Vice President Jiang's office. May I ask who this is?" The call was quickly connected, and before Li Huaide could speak, Director Kou's polite voice came through the phone.

Upon hearing Director Kou's inquiry, Li Huaide immediately asked politely, "Director Kou! This is Li Huaide. Is my father home? Could you please let him answer the phone?"

Upon hearing Li Huaide's question, Director Kou immediately smiled and said to Li Huaide, "It's Factory Director Li! I remember today is the day for trainees to register. Are you settling in well at the Industrial University?"

Upon hearing Director Kou's question, Li Huaide smiled and said to Director Kou, "Director Kou! Before becoming the factory director, I was in charge of logistics. What's there to be unaccustomed to? Is my dad here? I have something very important to discuss with him. Could you please let him take the call?"

Upon hearing Li Huaide's reply, Director Kou smiled and said to Li Huaide, "Factory Director Li! General Manager Jiang is reviewing documents in his office. Please wait a moment while I let him take the call."

"Huai De! I heard from Xiao Kou that you have something very important to discuss with me. Could it be that something happened at the training course?" Li Huaide didn't have to wait long before Vice President Jiang's very friendly voice came through the phone.

Hearing Vice President Jiang's inquiry, Li Huaide, recalling what had happened earlier, politely reported to Vice President Jiang, "Dad! How could Wang Deming, the one you sent, not even know basic flexibility? The training course hasn't even officially started yet, and he's already offended Wu Tianpeng." Vice President Jiang, on the other end of the phone, upon hearing Li Huaide's account, his expression changed drastically, and he asked Li Huaide in a very serious tone, "Huaide! What did you say? Wang Deming offended Mr. Wu? What exactly happened?"

Upon hearing Vice President Jiang's inquiry, Li Huaide immediately explained to him, "Dad! Here's what happened: This morning, Mr. Wu brought someone over, intending to place him in the training program. However, Wang Deming didn't even know the most basic flexibility and directly refused Mr. Wu's request. Seeing that Wang Deming didn't give him face, Mr. Wu simply led the person away."

When Vice President Jiang learned the whole story, he was immediately furious and complained, "What's wrong with this Wang Deming? Although the department has set the tone that no one is allowed to put their connections into the training class, the people arranged by Mr. Wu can't be generalized. If I had known he was so stubborn, I shouldn't have assigned him to this job in the first place."

After saying this, Vice President Jiang immediately asked Li Huaide with curiosity, "Huaide! Who arranged for Mr. Wu to do this? After being rejected by Wang Deming, did Mr. Wu have any misunderstandings about us because of this?"

Upon hearing Vice President Jiang's inquiry, Li Huaide immediately reported to him: "Dad! The person Wu Tianpeng arranged is named Lin Zhongtian. He is a technician at the machinery factory. Although Wu Tianpeng claims that Lin Zhongtian is his relative, I know that Lin Zhongtian was placed in the training class by Wu Tianpeng through Jia Dongming's connections."

“After receiving the report, I went to find Wu Tianpeng immediately. Although he didn’t say anything angry, I felt from his attitude that he was very dissatisfied with what Wang Deming had done.”

Upon hearing Li Huaide's report, Vice President Jiang's face showed surprise. He quickly asked Li Huaide to confirm, "Huaide! What did you say? That technician named Lin Zhongtian was placed in the training class by Jia Dongming through Wu Tianpeng? Is that true?"

When Li Huaide heard Vice President Jiang's question, he hesitated for a moment, thinking about the relationship between Lin Zhongtian and Jia Dongming, before reporting to Vice President Jiang: "Dad! Speaking of Lin Zhongtian's matter, it has something to do with me in some way."

"Lin Zhongtian's grandfather is Lin Shengli, and his aunt, Lin Yuemei, used to be the deputy director of our Hongxing Steel Rolling Mill. A few years ago, she was transferred from the steel rolling mill to work at the Women's Federation. Lin Yuemei called me yesterday!"

Li Huaide did not tell Vice President Jiang about his suspicion that Lin Yuemei and Jia Dongming had a relationship. On the other hand, Vice President Jiang, after learning the whole story, remembered that Wu Tianlin had only given them thirty places. Therefore, he was not concerned about Jia Dongming using his relationship with Wu Tianlin to place people with connections in the training class, but rather how to use this to place more students in the training class.

With this thought in mind, Vice President Jiang solemnly instructed Li Huaide, "Huaide! I will report to President Lin about Wang Deming's matter later. You go and apologize to Mr. Wu in person. Also, regarding Lin Zhongtian's matter, you go to the registration office and finalize Lin Zhongtian's enrollment in the training course."

Upon hearing Vice President Jiang's instructions, Li Huaide hesitated for a moment, recalling what Wu Tianpeng had mentioned to him, before reporting to Vice President Jiang: "Dad! I called you today not only to tell you about Wang Deming offending Wu Tianpeng, but also to report something very important."

Upon hearing Li Huaide's words and sensing the hesitant look on Li Huaide's face, Vice President Jiang asked Li Huaide with a very serious expression, "Huaide! Just say what's on your mind, don't be so coy like a girl."
