Chapter 436 Go with the flow
It's hard to describe the green train nowadays. Su Qian might have been unable to bear the bumpy ride. She saw her father and then fell into a deep sleep after drinking milk. Putting down the cute little baby in their arms, Su Ning and Song Yunping were both very satisfied at this time.

"Pingping, since you're here this time, stay at the Zhongyuan Factory for a while."

"No! The company has a lot of things to do, and the business is too big. Home appliance manufacturing, hotels, and foreign trade all need people to keep an eye on them." Song Yunping was still worried about the business in Jinzhou.

"Silly, I asked you to run the company just so you could find something to do slowly." Su Ning looked at Song Yunping speechlessly, and explained with a wry smile, "But you are so lucky that you are tied to the business and can't leave it."

"Ah? Don't I need to keep an eye on my own business?" Song Yunping was still a little confused.

"Pingping, it's already 1985, and you've been running the company for almost three years. Haven't you encountered a talent like Yang Xun?"

“Yes, there are, but I’m still a little worried.”

"Pingping, everyone has selfish motives. In fact, Yang Xun may not be loyal enough to you and me." Su Ning looked at his wife and shook his head, then explained to her in a simple and easy-to-understand way, "You should know that loyalty is the cheapest thing. You need to learn to delegate power slowly. As long as you focus on the big things and let go of the small things, it will be fine."

"Huh? How do you catch and release the little one?"

"The most important parts of a company are personnel and finance. As long as you keep a firm grasp on these and regularly review key employees, there will be no mistakes."

"Well, I'll give it a try this time when I return to Golden State."

"Haha, let's hurry up and learn foreign languages now!" Su Ning suddenly hugged Song Yunping with a sly smile, "I haven't learned foreign languages for a few months, and I feel like my foreign language skills are rusty."

"Ah? Bad guy!" Song Yunping showed a surprised smile, reluctantly accepting it.

It is said that a short separation is better than a new marriage. Suning and Song Yunping hugged each other excitedly.
An unknown amount of time passed before the earth-shaking situation finally ended. Song Yunping leaned on Su Ning's chest and said, "Su Ning, Secretary Shui of the Jinzhou factory also asked me if I could transfer you back."

"Ah? Impossible! He was very happy for me to take the responsibility for what happened back then. This way, we can also eliminate a threat invisibly."

"Haha, later I asked Xiaohui, and then I learned that the technological upgrade and transformation you carried out in the Zhongyuan Factory was so successful that it was no less than the introduction of new technologies, so he was a little tempted." Song Yunping agreed with Suning's analysis and continued to explain.

"That's impossible! Secretary Shui wouldn't support me like he did with the Zhongyuan Factory. He's also worried that my achievements would threaten his position."

"Haha, Secretary Shui is now also supporting Xiaohui in upgrading the technology of the Jinzhou factory, and has also followed suit and gone to Fuyun Foreign Trade to purchase new equipment."

"Well, actually, Xiaohui won't be able to stay in Jinzhou for long. His personality is not suitable for the stagnant Jinzhou factory. He will definitely find his own way out."

"Huh? Probably not!"

"Haha, you, as a sister, don't understand Xiaohui as well as I, your brother-in-law."

"Suning, you said that our careers and families are very happy now, so you and Xiaohui should stop struggling, okay?" Good women are easily satisfied.

"Pingping, how can this be considered a hassle?" Upon hearing Song Yunping's thoughts, Su Ning said disapprovingly, "The purpose of life is to realize one's own different values. A life without pursuit is a waste of time."

"Haha, you have so many crooked ideas. I don't think anyone in our family can argue with you."

"Hey, let's review our foreign language again!"

"what"

"Jingle Bell!"

Su Ning was awakened by a ringing phone. He checked the time and saw it was just before six in the afternoon. Puzzled, he went to answer the phone. Then Secretary Ling's voice came over the line, "Chief Engineer Su, I heard your wife and children are at the Zhongyuan Factory?"

"Yes! My wife and children are coming to the Central Plains to play for a few days."

"Haha, we've booked a welcome banquet at the guesthouse tonight, so hurry up and come over!"

"Ah? Okay! Thank you, Secretary Ling."

"Suning, whose phone is this?" Song Yunping asked curiously after seeing Suning hang up the phone.

"Zhongyuan Factory has booked a welcome banquet and asked us to go there now!"

"Huh? Then I'll change my clothes."

After Su Ning and Song Yunping packed up, they came to the Zhongyuan Factory Guesthouse with the baby Su Qian in their arms, and saw Gao Xiangrong waiting at the door.

"Chief Engineer Su, this must be my sister-in-law, right?" Gao Xiangrong looked at Su Ning and Song Yunping with a smile on his face. "Welcome my sister-in-law to the Zhongyuan Factory."

"This is Director Gao, who is in charge of logistics in our factory." Suning introduced Song Yunping.

"Haha, hello, Director Gao!" Song Yunping said to Gao Xiangrong with a smile, "I am also a family member of the Zhongyuan Factory. I should go home." "Haha, sister-in-law is right. Welcome home."

Following Gao Xiangrong to the box, Suning saw that all the main leaders of the Zhongyuan Factory were there, and then he introduced them to Song Yunping. After the introduction, everyone sat down again.

"Chief Engineer Su, does your sister-in-law have a stable job in Jinzhou?" Secretary Ling looked at Su Ning with a smile, then asked with concern, "Do you want the Zhongyuan Factory to arrange a job for your sister-in-law?"

"Thank you Secretary Ling, my wife has a stable job in Jinzhou and has no plans to change jobs." In fact, Suning still didn't want to reveal the inside story so early, and then he said simply.

"Oh? Chief Engineer Su, what does your sister-in-law do in Jinzhou?" Ma Baoping asked curiously.

"Ma Chang, I work as a manager at Hongyun Home Appliances in Jinzhou." Song Yunping saw that Suning didn't want to explain too much. After all, he suffered losses in Jinzhou because of Hongyun Home Appliances.

"Ah? Hongyun Home Appliances? A joint venture!" Such a casual explanation still caused surprise among the people in the box.

"Haha, if you ask me, it would be great if Hongyun Company could come to our Central Plains to build a factory. Then those unemployed young people outside wouldn't have to make trouble all day long." Director Chu has been taciturn since returning from Japan. Today, he also made a rare sigh.

"Haha, to be honest, our Hongyun Company does have the idea of moving to inland provinces, but we don't know the leaders here, so it's just in the planning stage at the moment." Song Yunping explained with a smile.

"Oh? How will your company move to inland areas?" Director Chu suddenly became interested.

"Let's form a joint venture! The original manufacturer will retain 49% of the shares, and we, Hongyun Home Appliances, will hold 51%. Hongyun Home Appliances will provide the capital, technology, and the latest production lines."

"Oh? Such generous terms?"

"Haha, although the conditions are good, I don't know the inland policies, so I can't invest for the time being."

"Well, that's true. Business and policy are closely related." Secretary Ling said with emotion, then suddenly looked at Director Chu, "Old Chu, I remember your comrade-in-arms is the director of the Zhongyuan Electric Factory, right? It's such a good thing, you should help to connect them!"

"Oh? What a coincidence." Song Yunping and Su Ning looked at each other in surprise.

It is now 1985, and the market is opening up more and more. If we adopt a joint venture, we can try to enter inland provinces.

"Haha, the secretary is right. I will call my comrades when I get back to see what they mean." Director Chu agreed with this joint venture and was willing to help with the contact.

In fact, the Zhongyuan Factory has been under a lot of pressure in recent years. After growing up, many young people have been trying their best to squeeze into the Zhongyuan Factory to work. Even the factory's apprentices have found it difficult to be employed, so they are also eager to ease the employment pressure in Zhongyuan.

"Haha, thank you very much, Director Chu." Song Yunping looked at Director Chu gratefully.

"Sister-in-law, please don't be polite. We are all family."

"Chief Engineer Su, how is the technical upgrade and transformation of the third factory going?" Secretary Ling now showed concern for the work.

"It will be completed in just over a month. After all, we have accumulated experience from the transformation of the second factory, and everyone is doing things much more smoothly."

"Well, thanks to Chief Engineer Su's technical transformation, we have narrowed the gap with Jinzhou Factory, and at the same time we see hope of catching up with Jinzhou Factory." Secretary Ling said while looking at Su Ning with a smile.

"Haha, it's mainly because the leadership team of our Zhongyuan factory is united enough, which is why we can carry out technical upgrades and renovations so quickly." Suning said something fair. His success is indeed inseparable from their support.

"Well, from now on, the focus of our Zhongyuan factory will be on technological upgrading and transformation, and all Zhongyuan people will support Chief Engineer Su." Secretary Ling was very satisfied with Suning's lack of greed for credit, and then set the tone with a smile on his face.

"Thank you, Secretary, the factory director, and all the factory leaders."

"Haha, let's stop talking about things and eat!" Secretary Ling said to everyone with a smile.

After the welcome banquet, Suning and Song Yunping walked under the streetlights of Zhongyuan Factory, holding the baby Su Qian. Song Yunping looked at Suning and said with a smile, "Suning, I feel that the leadership team of your Zhongyuan Factory is quite harmonious."

"Haha, this is just an appearance." Su Ning shook his head disapprovingly, then explained in a low voice, "Zhongyuan Factory is the direct line of Zhou Si in Beijing, and almost everyone here is his confidant.

But there are also conflicts among confidants. The reason they treat me so well is because I have the support of Zhou Si. "

"Huh? That's so complicated!"

"Haha, that's totally unrelated!" Su Ning looked at the surprised Song Yunping and continued to explain, "The first echelon of Zhou's confidants are Ma Baoping and Gao Xiangrong. Although Secretary Ling and Director Chu are also Zhou's people, they also have strong opinions about Zhou's meddling in the affairs of Zhongyuan Factory."

"Ah! Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes." Song Yunping said with emotion.

"Yeah! We can only try to go with the flow."
