Li Ye and Lu Zhizhang talked for two hours, sorting through some of the details and reaching a preliminary consensus.
"Then it's settled. Old Lu, if you need to take up a post in the southwest, just ask for whatever support you need—manpower, funding, anything else. As long as we have it, we won't be stingy."
"Hahahaha, Li Ye, don't worry. I definitely won't stand on ceremony. But shouldn't we avoid looking too eager right now? A deal isn't made by chasing after it!"
"Of course we can't be eager. It's just that some people might be in a hurry."
"They're in a hurry. Will that help?"
"Who knows! Anyway, I don't think it will. Hehehehe."
"Then I'm relieved, hehehehe~"
Li Ye and Lu Zhizhang exchanged glances, then both chuckled.
The head office was in a great hurry now, but Li Ye absolutely could not be.
Because both Li Ye and Lu Zhizhang understood that Yi Mingzhao clearly knew this sand-mixing maneuver would disgust Li Ye's side, yet he had still openly summoned Li Ye over and tried to make him accept a plan that had long since been drafted. In truth, he had no other choice.
Capital City Automobile Group had only just been established. Yi Mingzhao was effectively a parachuted-in top leader, and if he wanted to seize control of the situation quickly, he needed a group of loyal confidants of his own.
But when you, the boss, had only just taken office, why would a group of subordinates wholeheartedly devoted to protecting you gather around you?
You couldn't just talk big with empty words, could you?
Capital City Automobile Group was no tiny workshop under a Neighborhood Committee Office. You couldn't shout a few slogans and expect everyone to half-believe you and work themselves to the bone
