Cao Zhiqiang had just finished talking to Section Chief Zeng on the phone, and not long after, the phone rang again.

When I picked it up, as expected, it was Director Li who called.

"Cao Zhiqiang, what's the situation? Xiao Zeng called me just now and said that you want two cars, four people, and guns? You, what are you going to do? ”

"Oops, Director Li." Cao Zhiqiang hurriedly smiled, "Why did you alarm you?" ”

"Don't giggle with me." Director Li said, "How serious is it to transport guns?" Tell me what exactly you want to transport! ”

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "Director Li, I also want to explain it to you clearly, but I really can't explain this matter clearly." I can only say that there are some things in the warehouse on my side that will be sent to the big leader's house immediately. ”

"Great leader? You mean, that one? ”

"Yes, that's the one."

As soon as he heard this, Director Li immediately said: "Okay, you wait, I'll go over and go with Xiao Zeng!" ”

After hanging up the phone again, Cao Zhiqiang sighed softly.

Although he called Section Chief Zeng directly to the Security Section before, he did not call Director Li first, which was indeed a subconscious behavior.

But it can be seen from this trivial matter, don't look at the fact that he and Section Chief Zeng seem to have a good relationship now, and even to a certain extent, Section Chief Zeng is almost spending money to support him, but once it comes to major matters, people still listen to Director Li.

In other words, the entire machinery factory is still in the hands of Director Li.

Not only the machinery factory, but even the Hongguang Publishing House, Huaxia Audio-visual Company, Hongguang Department Store and other units, it is still Director Li who really has the final say.

He seems to have unlimited scenery and power, but in fact, it is all with the approval and acquiescence of Director Li.

Once Director Li wants to take back power, let alone Hongguang Machinery Factory, even the units that seem to be holding the handle of Hongguang Publishing House, Director Li can collect it in an instant.

In the final analysis, it is because of the different nature of the units.

As long as Hongguang Machinery Factory is a state-owned enterprise for a day, and he is a person of Hongguang Machinery Factory for a day, he will be subject to the constraints of Director Li for a day.

As for that, after the retirement of Director Li, he made himself the director of the factory......

Hehe, Cao Zhiqiang feels that this is most likely just a fool.

Let's not talk about how long it will take for Director Li to retire, even if he retires, it will be difficult for him to be quite a factory director.

After all, the director of a state-owned enterprise is not the director of the factory who has the final say with the secretary, but the superior leaders who have the final say.

As an enterprise directly under the Ministry of Metallurgy, it is naturally the leaders of the Ministry of Metallurgy who have the final say.

If you want to be a factory manager, although age is not the only criterion, rank is definitely one of the criteria.

Anyway, with his current twenty-second administrative level, he is equivalent to the director of a large state-owned enterprise, at least for now, if not a dream, it is not much different.

Well, at most, when the time comes, give him the position of deputy factory director, which has to be a situation when the superior leaders are all optimistic about themselves, but even so, it is very difficult.

Of course, through Director Li's trust, Cao Zhiqiang can still do whatever he wants, but this is the same as the guests of the countries in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, he may be able to use the power of the other party because of the approval of the king, but once the king does not recognize you, or is gone, your power will be lost in an instant.

"In the final analysis, the current state-owned enterprises can only be temporary, and in the long run, we still have to find a way to build a private enterprise that really belongs to us, so that is the real final say."

I think so, but Cao Zhiqiang understands that at least for now, it's no fun.

Because if everything remains the same, as in the historical process of his previous life, then at least in the second half of next year, the policy of allowing private enterprises to be set up will be introduced.

Now, at most, a private person can engage in a small self-employed business, or an affiliated business, and want to start a private enterprise, which is no fun at all.

If it weren't for the fact that private enterprises were not allowed to appear, and the scale of self-employed people was strictly limited, it would not have been possible for Cao Zhiqiang's publishing house sales department to easily absorb a large number of self-employed people who did not pay wages and became contract workers.

What is the integration of self-employed people as contract workers, isn't it a relationship of mutual cooperation, or more explicitly, isn't it a kind of affiliation relationship?

To put it bluntly, those self-employed people who are mainly Li Youfu and others are attached to his Hongguang Publishing House, and then with the help of the tiger skin of the sales department of Hongguang Publishing House, they can expand their business scale and legally earn more profits than ordinary self-employed people.

In this process, both parties have benefits, so that the play can continue to be sung.

Of course, in this kind of cooperation in the form of affiliation, Hongguang Publishing House is the active party, because the right of interpretation lies with the publishing house.

Whether to continue to cooperate, and how to cooperate, is actually the publishing house, or he Cao Zhiqiang has the final say.

In the same way, whether it is Hongguang Publishing House or Hongguang Film Factory, it is a kind of contract business model, theoretically speaking, the machinery factory can breach the contract, after all, the machinery factory has a greater initiative.

However, at present, the machinery factory, or Director Li, is very happy to cooperate with him, and it is unlikely that he will cross the river and tear down the bridge.

But just in case, it's better to add some insurance.

And the deterrent power of the big leader is one of the insurances.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, why can he Cao Zhiqiang achieve this point in a short period of time, especially to gain the absolute trust of Secretary Dong and Director Li, the second-in-command? If you want to talk about the root cause, it is actually because of the big leader.

I think that at the beginning, when Cao Zhiqiang was hospitalized pretending to be injured in robbery, Secretary Dong and Director Li hurriedly went over to take a look, which was more like a show.

At that time, Cao Zhiqiang was already a well-known cutting-edge poet, otherwise, he would not have been able to get such a high manuscript fee to frame Wei Dajun.

But even if Cao Zhiqiang was already a little famous at that time, in the eyes of Secretary Dong and Director Li, he was still just a small person, and he had no intention of having a deep friendship with him at all.

was really valued by Secretary Dong and Director Li, or Cao Zhiqiang used the identity of a stupid pillar to meet with the big leader, and he sang on the spot and made a generous statement, saying that Uncle Xu was moved, so that Uncle Xu found Uncle Wang, and finally agreed to let him open a publishing house.

It's just that this publishing house can't become Cao Zhiqiang's private publishing house, but will be opened in the name of Hongguang Machinery Factory, and then let Cao Zhiqiang contract to operate.

Since you want Hongguang Machinery Factory to undertake it, of course, you can't avoid Secretary Dong and Director Li.

Secretary Dong and Director Li really paid attention to Cao Zhiqiang after this incident.

Why is it not because of Uncle Xu's relationship?

Subsequently, Hongguang Publishing House made a lot of money in a short period of time, and it had abundant cash flow, which made Director Li really look good and began to cooperate with Cao Zhiqiang in depth, and was no longer respectful.

After that, Cao Zhiqiang decisively took out two percent of the profits and distributed them to Secretary Dong and Director Li in his private name, which finally completed the bundling of interests.

At this point, he, Cao Zhiqiang, as well as Secretary Dong and Director Li, finally became grasshoppers tied to a rope.

However, when you think about it, this is not actually safe.

Because the real power is still in the hands of Secretary Dong and Director Li, Cao Zhiqiang can only make money at best, but when it comes to connections and power, he is still far behind.

It can be said that Uncle Xu is the real backing for Cao Zhiqiang to make money safely and steadily, and to sit down with Secretary Dong and Director Li.

Once there is no backing from Uncle Xu, it is difficult to say what Director Li and Secretary Dong think.

After all, wealth moves people's hearts, and wealth without power to protect it, then you may not be able to keep it.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang wanted to use this matter of sending information to deepen the impression of the people in the machinery factory, that is, Uncle Xu's relationship with him was very iron, and he was also involved in some secret fronts.

Once this mysterious veil is wrapped, even if Uncle Xu is gone, or if he doesn't continue to cover himself, he will still be able to eat.

That's right, Uncle Xu is already very old, and he doesn't know how long he can live.

In his previous life, Cao Zhiqiang looked at the courtyard, and he didn't know how long this Uncle Xu lived, after all, there was basically no chance for this big leader to appear in the later stage.

Therefore, Cao Zhiqiang felt that he had to take precautions and expand his contacts in advance.

In the past, he had already contacted a group of city leaders through Yu Deshui's relationship and under the pretext of personnel transfer, which could be regarded as expanding some of his own contacts.

But that's not enough.

Those so-called leaders are just some friends who drink and meat, it's okay to do some small things with a little money, if you really want to rely on these people, don't even think about it.

And with a high probability, these people also inquired about their background, and they should at least know a little about their relationship with Uncle Xu.

If nothing else, at least Director Liu of the Art Bureau of the Ministry of Culture should know something.

So, in the final analysis, his thighs are still the same Uncle Xu.

As for that Uncle Wang, he seems to have a lot of power, but firstly, he is also very old, and secondly, his relationship with himself is not very close.

Before Uncle Wang was willing to promise to give himself a publishing house, there was a high probability that he just felt that the matter of a publishing house was too small, and he was willing to help because of Uncle Xu's face, not because of how good his performance was, or how good he thought he was.

Otherwise, Uncle Wang would never come to him again from then on.

From this point of view, it seems that it is not beneficial to offer technical information by yourself, but it is not.

Even if you don't get the money for those materials, you will inevitably get the attention and protection of the relevant departments.

Moreover, if you can use this to pull the tiger skin again, so that Director Li thinks that he actually has a deeper relationship, the benefits are self-evident.

In this way, in case Uncle Xu is gone, he can still find other thighs to hold, or he will not let some people have some thoughts that they shouldn't have in a short time.

Therefore, maintaining a certain sense of mystery is a kind of strength in itself.

In Cao Zhiqiang's contemplation, Director Li took Section Chief Zeng and came to the publishing house in a hurry.

After that, Director Li asked Section Chief Zeng to wait outside, and he himself went directly into Cao Zhiqiang's office.

"Yo! Director Li. As soon as Director Li entered the door, Cao Zhiqiang immediately stood up to greet him, "You are here so soon?" ”

After entering the door, Director Li frowned, closed the door casually, and then walked over and asked, "What's going on?" What information is so important to be escorted with a gun? ”

"Director Li." Cao Zhiqiang sighed, "I really can't say this, so let's do it, if you don't worry, come with me to see Xu ...... No, big leader, if he thinks you can know, then I have absolutely no problem here, and I won't hide it from you. ”

Director Li frowned and thought for a while, then nodded solemnly: "Okay, that's it, what about the things you want to transport?" Can I take a look? ”

"Of course." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "Everything is in my No. 1 warehouse here, well, you can look at the surface, but you can't open it to see, unless it is allowed above." ”

"Okay." Director Li nodded, "Then let's go." ”

"Wait." Cao Zhiqiang asked, "Are the people from the security department here?" Got a gun? ”

"Here we are." Director Li said, "I asked Section Chief Zeng to double the number of people, eight people, all with pistols, this is always okay, right?" ”

"Yes, you can." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "That's great, then let's go." ”

After speaking, Cao Zhiqiang took the lead and left the president's office.

After walking outside, I saw Section Chief Zeng and a group of subordinates he brought, all of whom were standing outside.

"Section Chief Zeng." Cao Zhiqiang took the initiative to greet with a smile.

"President Cao." Section Chief Zeng also hurriedly greeted Cao Zhiqiang.

Cao Zhiqiang nodded: "Come with me, by the way, Lao Chen." ”

Speaking of this, Cao Zhiqiang said to Chen Jiabang, who was accompanying him: "Let the people from the security department here take care of this place, what should everyone do, don't ask around, don't discuss, and more importantly, no one is allowed to approach the No. 1 warehouse, understand?" ”

Chen Jiabang frowned, then nodded: "Got it." ”

Cao Zhiqiang nodded solemnly, and then said to Director Li and Section Chief Zeng who came over: "Director Li, Section Chief Zeng, let's go, let's go to the warehouse." ”

After a while, Cao Zhiqiang led people to the outside of the No. 1 warehouse, and then personally unlocked the door, and then asked the other security department personnel to stand guard outside, while he himself took Director Li and Section Chief Zeng in.

"Look, that's it." Cao Zhiqiang pointed to the packages, "This is the information that the big leader wants." ”

Director Li put his hands behind his back, looked at the tightly wrapped in canvas, like a quilt bag, and nodded: "Are you sure it's these?" ”

"That's it." Cao Zhiqiang nodded.

Immediately afterwards, Cao Zhiqiang said to Section Chief Zeng: "Section Chief Zeng, these black packages and yellow packages are the materials that need to be transported by you."

When you let the comrades load and unload the goods, you must be careful, handle them gently, and no one is allowed to peek at the contents of the goods, otherwise, if something really happens, I don't guarantee what will happen, and the lightest thing is to eat in prison. ”

Section Chief Zeng frowned: "President Cao, this, what the hell is this?" ”

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "I can't say what it is, I can only say that it is very important!" ”

"If it's so important, why is it here?" Section Chief Zeng asked.

Cao Zhiqiang smiled mysteriously, then shook his head.

"Section Chief Zeng!" Director Li suddenly said, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, since Director Cao has this need, you can do it!" ”

Section Chief Zeng nodded: "Yes, factory director, I know what to do." ”

After speaking, Section Chief Zeng walked out of the warehouse, and then beckoned someone to drive the truck over, ready to load.

After Section Chief Zeng left, Director Li sighed to Cao Zhiqiang and said, "Xiao Cao, it seems that you ...... There are so many other secrets. ”

Cao Zhiqiang deliberately smiled bitterly: "Director Li, you know me, what the hell is there."

If possible, I'd rather not know these things than engage in them, and An An will share my money, so comfortable.

However, sometimes being a human being is not about doing what you want.

It's like this thing, if it really finds me, I can't refuse. ”

"Oh?" Director Li frowned, "You mean to say that someone forced you to do this?" Who is it? ”

Cao Zhiqiang sighed: "My Director Li, don't ask again."

In this way, when I meet the big leader, as long as he agrees, then I will tell the matter in 1510.

But I really can't say anything until he says yes, not only for my sake, but also for your own good. ”

Director Li was stunned for a moment, then smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and patted Cao Zhiqiang's shoulder: "Well done, keep your mouth shut, this is the real good comrade, I really didn't misunderstand you!" ”

Cao Zhiqiang blinked, and also smiled: "Long live understanding!" ”
