Chapter 439: Braised Pig's Trotters

After a happy New Year in Jinzhou, Suning returned to the Central Plains factory again, ready to accept a difficult task and start a new career.

"Chief Engineer Su, I have good news for you. Your transfer order has come through." Secretary Ling handed over a transfer order with a smile on his face. "You will be the leader of the Donghai Chemical Preparatory Group, and Gao Xiangrong will be the deputy leader."

"Oh? There's only me and Lao Gao in our Zhongyuan factory?" Suning was still a little surprised.

"Yes! You two were appointed by Chief Zhou himself."

Originally in the original drama, Ma Baoping and Gao Xiangrong went to the Donghai Chemical Preparatory Group. It seemed that he had snatched the position that should have belonged to Ma Baoping, but Suning did not have any psychological burden, because Suning knew that he was definitely doing better than Ma Baoping.

"Thank you, Secretary Ling. I'm ready to leave now."

“Well, do you have confidence in this project?”

"Haha, to be honest, I've even prepared a project plan." Su Ning raised his eyebrows and said confidently, "Do you think I have confidence?"

"Oh? Chief Engineer Su, you are so efficient!" Secretary Ling was also impressed at this time, because Suning's thinking was too advanced, and he must have started preparing a long time ago.

"Haha, this may be the case of the early bird catches the worm!"

"Chief Engineer Su, if you are still a fool, then the rest of us will have no chance of survival." Secretary Ling looked at the humble Su Ning with a wry smile.

Su Ning left Secretary Ling's office and just returned home when Gao Xiangrong came to him. "Team Leader Su, when are we leaving?"

"Hehe, how about tomorrow?"

"Okay! I've already made preparations for the few days you've been away from the Zhongyuan Factory."

"Well, then we'll leave as soon as we get up tomorrow morning."

"Team leader Su, Director Ma has been in a bad mood recently. You'd better stay away from him tonight." After agreeing on the departure time, Gao Xiangrong suddenly said mysteriously to Su Ning.

"Oh? Isn't it because of the East China Sea project team?"

"That's right! He's been applying to join the East China Sea project team, but Director Zhou has always disagreed, so he's very unhappy."

"Well, Lao Ma is a man of measure. You don't need to worry too much."

"Hey! That's because you don't understand him. I've been avoiding him recently." Gao Xiangrong explained with a wry smile. It seemed that he was very afraid that Ma Baoping would explode.

"Haha, look how nervous you are! You're really exaggerating." Looking at Gao Xiangrong, who was terrified of Ma Baoping, Su Ning said with a mixture of laughter and tears, "Alright! Go back to sleep! We're leaving tomorrow morning."

After finally getting rid of the overly enthusiastic Gao Xiangrong, Su Ning had just closed the door and was about to go to bed when he heard the door open again. When he opened the door, he saw Ma Baoping holding peanuts and two bottles of wine.

"Ma Chang, what are you doing?" Suning looked at Ma Baoping in front of him in confusion.

"Chief Engineer Su, I'm in a bad mood tonight. Can you have a drink with me?"

"Okay! I'd be happy to help you."

After letting Ma Baoping into the room, Suning went to the kitchen to see if there was anything to eat, but he found nothing. So he simply took out some cooked food from the space world and brought it out.

"Haha, Chief Engineer Su, you still have abundant supplies!" Ma Baoping couldn't help but feel happy when he saw the delicious dishes brought by Suning.

Suning opened a bottle of wine directly, and poured a glass of wine for Ma Baoping and himself respectively, then picked up a peanut and started eating it, while Ma Baoping on the opposite side drank the wine directly.

"Wow!" Ma Baoping shouted happily as his empty stomach was burned by the strong liquor, "It feels so good!"

"Haha, have some pig's trotters, it's a good thing." Suning greeted Ma Baoping who was about to drown his sorrows in alcohol.

"Okay! Let me try it." Ma Baoping picked up a braised pig's trotter and started chewing it. He couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "Hmm, it tastes really good. Where did you buy it?"

"Haha, I brought some from Jinzhou. You can take some with you when you go back later."

"Haha, thank you very much, Chief Engineer Su."

"Just a little pig's trotter. Don't be polite to me." Suning shook his head indifferently.

Ma Baoping drank one glass after another and soon began to feel drunk. He then looked at Su Ning with a wry smile on his face and said, "Su Ning, I've noticed that since you came to Zhongyuan Factory, Director Zhou no longer likes me."

"Haha, Director Ma, you're overthinking it."

"Suning, you don't understand!" Ma Baoping shook his finger drunkenly, then said with a dazed look, "Boss Zhou only likes people who are useful to him. Now that I'm no longer useful to him, I was kicked away."

"Ma Chang, I think you're really exaggerating." Su Ning shook his head disapprovingly, then tried to persuade the already drunk Ma Baoping, "Maybe Director Zhou has other plans for you. After all, Zhongyuan Factory is also very important to Director Zhou."

"No! I can't defeat Secretary Ling and Director Chu at Zhongyuan Factory." Ma Baoping continued to speak his mind. Su Ning also rarely knew many of Zhongyuan Factory's secrets. "Don't be fooled by Old Chu's usual listless appearance. When he gets angry, he's still very powerful. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the director of Zhongyuan Factory."

"."

"Suning, I really value this East China Sea project team. I've applied to Director Zhou many times for this, but he's always rejected me." Ma Baoping actually started crying as he spoke, feeling like a child who had lost a beloved object. "Uh, uh, uh, I know he looks down on me and thinks I'm not as capable as you, Suning."

"Hey!"

Seeing Ma Baoping fall asleep after crying, Suning sighed helplessly, then carried the unconscious Ma Baoping and took out some braised pig's trotters from the space and put them in a white food bag.

Ma Baoping's wife saw Su Ning carrying the drunk Ma Baoping and understood everything without asking. She then looked at Su Ning with an apologetic look on her face and said, "Chief Engineer Su, I'm sorry that our old Ma has caused you trouble."

"Hehe, it's okay. Where is the bedroom?"

"Oh? Here!" Ma Baoping's wife quickly guided Su Ning and carried Ma Baoping to the bedroom.

After putting the unconscious Ma Baoping on the bed, Su Ning handed a bag of braised pig's trotters to Ma Baoping's wife. "Sister-in-law, this is the braised pig's trotters I brought from Jinzhou. I saw that Ma Chang liked it very much, so I took some more."

"Thank you, Chief Engineer Su." Ma Baoping's wife looked at Suning gratefully after receiving the braised pig's trotters.

"Sister-in-law, Ma Chang is unhappy. When you have nothing to do, try to comfort him."

"Well, I will."

The next morning, Suning brought the impatient Gao Xiangrong to Zhongyuan Railway Station, and then boarded the train to Beijing. Of course, he also checked in his beloved car to Beijing.

You have to know that cars are still luxury items nowadays. It is not easy for Suning to come up with this legal and compliant imported car. Of course, Suning cherishes it very much.

"Team Leader Su, with this SUV of yours, it will be much more convenient for us to get around Beijing." Gao Xiangrong looked at Su Ning in surprise. "Well, I put a lot of effort into this car."

"Team Leader Su, do you think we will succeed this time?"

"Old Gao, the competition here is very fierce, and there are many preparatory groups heading to Beijing at the same time. We don't know which project the leaders will value, so our Donghai project team will do our best!" Suning didn't say too much to Gao Xiangrong because he knew that he was not a person who could be trusted.

"Well, what Team Leader Su said makes sense. We will definitely do our best."

It only takes seven or eight hours to travel more than a thousand kilometers from Zhongyuan to Beijing. Suning and Gao Xiangrong arrived in Beijing at around four o'clock in the afternoon. Seeing that there was still plenty of time, the two went directly to report to the Ministry of Chemical Industry.

Director Zhou happened to be in the office at this moment, and when he saw the two generals reporting in, he couldn't help but feel pleasantly surprised, "Suning, Xiangrong, you are finally here."

"Haha, it's all my fault. I went back to Jinzhou for the New Year and just returned to Central Plains yesterday." Suning smiled and took the initiative to admit his mistake.

"Well, there's plenty of time, and you don't need to rush."

"Yes! Zhou Si."

"You two should report first! Come find me after you've settled in."

"Boss Zhou, let's go report."

At this time, the other two leaders of the project preparation team have arrived in Beijing. One is Han Zegang who is responsible for technology, and the other is Liu Yuhai who is in charge of finance. It seems that they also attach great importance to the East China Sea project team, otherwise they would not be so active.

"My name is Suning, and I'm the team leader of the East China Sea project team. The person next to me is Gao Xiangrong, who is responsible for the logistical support of the East China Sea project team." Suning looked at Han Zegang and Liu Yuhai with a smile.

"Team leader Su, I'm Han Zegang. I'm mainly responsible for technology. Please take care of me in the future." Han Zegang stretched out his right hand and shook hands with Su Ning.

"Haha, please support me in the future, Old Han."

"Of course! After all, our goals are the same." At this time, the project team was still peaceful and there was no sign of any contradiction.

"Team Leader Su, I'm Liu Yuhai, and I'm primarily responsible for the finances of our project team."

"Haha, you are the God of Wealth of our East China Sea project team!"

"Team Leader Su, you're too polite. I will follow your instructions in everything." Liu Yuhai said that he was very clear about his position.

"Well, what Old Han said just now is right. We all have the same ideal and goal. I hope the four of us can work together."

"Let's work together!" Gao Xiangrong, Han Zegang and the other two shouted in unison.

At night, Suning did not rest, but simply packed up and went to Zhou Si's house with the project plan he had prepared in advance to report the situation to him in person.

Zhou Si was just about to take a break at this time, and he was not too surprised to see Suning's arrival. After all, Suning had greeted Zhou Si in advance before coming to Beijing.

Looking at the project plan prepared by Suning, Zhou Si, who was a little indifferent at first, became more and more surprised, and suddenly began to read it carefully word by word.

Seeing Zhou Si's expression change from indifference to seriousness, Suning knew that he was safe this time. After all, he had the bug of a God's perspective, and he would definitely avoid some unnecessary "pitfalls".

"Mr. Zhou, I know there are many projects being reviewed this time, but no more than three will actually be approved." Suning explained his views on the side.

"Haha, Suning, you are quite clear-headed. Unlike other project teams, you are as excited as if you have been injected with chicken blood, but you ignore the project plan itself." After hearing Suning's true thoughts, Zhou Si nodded with satisfaction.

"Director Zhou, I think this approval process will be incredibly difficult, so I'm taking a different approach and focusing on filling a gap in our chemical industry. Even if the ministry doesn't approve this project proposal, we still have the Development Commission as a fallback."

"Haha, you can see really far ahead."

"Boss Zhou, how successful do you think my project plan is?"

"Suning, you have made such thorough preparations, the Ministry of Chemical Industry will definitely approve it." Zhou Si said with finality.

"Director Zhou, I want to start purchasing equipment as soon as the Ministry of Chemical Industry approves our Donghai Chemical Plant, and try to get the equipment as soon as possible."

"Huh? Why are you so anxious?" Zhou Si looked at Suning in surprise.

"Mr. Zhou, these past few years have definitely been a time of concentrated spending. Staggering spending with other project teams in advance can also alleviate some of the foreign exchange pressure." Suning gave a seemingly plausible reason.

"Well, your consideration does make sense. We are really short of foreign exchange." Zhou Si nodded in agreement.

"Mr. Zhou, do you agree with my point of view?" Suning looked at Mr. Zhou in surprise, because with Mr. Zhou's support, he proved that he was successful.

"Suning, just go for it! I, Old Zhou, support you."

"Thank you, Director Zhou, for your support." Suning was truly excited at this moment, feeling full of strength. "Director Zhou, I will hand this project plan over to the preparatory team for polishing tomorrow, and strive to submit it to the Ministry of Chemical Industry for approval as soon as possible."

"Ah, very good."

The next day, looking at all the team members who had arrived, Suning did not say any big words, but directly threw out the project plan and asked all team members to polish the project plan within a week.

Han Zegang took the plan in shock and started to read it directly. The more he read, the more he felt that the plan was very grand and detailed. As long as the Donghai Chemical Plant was built according to this plan, it would immediately become a world-leading plant.

"Team Leader Su, what about your project plan?" Han Zegang looked at Su Ning with a puzzled look.

"Haha, actually, I've been preparing these things. It just so happens that I joined the East China Sea project team this time, so I can use them directly."

"Team Leader Su, this plan is great. Our Donghai Chemical Plant is secure this time." Han Zegang looked at Su Ning in surprise.

It is said that those who play with technology are arrogant. In fact, Han Zegang did not take Suning too seriously at the beginning. He simply thought that Suning was famous enough and could be more successful than him, Han Zegang, in the chemical industry.

But today, Han Zegang was completely convinced of Suning. Only those with foresight are the most admirable. In addition, Suning also has the super ability to solve problems, which makes him a perfect genius.

"Old Han, you're too kind. We still need to work together to polish this project plan and try to avoid any problems." Suning said very modestly.

"Team Leader Su, don't worry, we can definitely complete the task in a week."

These members of the Donghai Chemical Plant project team are all chemical technical talents transferred from all over the country. After hearing the conversation between Han Zegang and Su Ning, the two leaders, they became excited.

Only if the Donghai Chemical Plant project is approved can they maximize their profits. No one wants to go back and forth. They all hope that the project can be successful, so there is no need for Suning's mobilization at all. They immediately throw themselves into the work.
