Watching Cheng Ke eating the steamed buns in small bites, Li Fanyu felt so confused.
Sister, it took you almost twenty minutes to eat half of a xiaolongbao. Don’t you think this is a devastation to the steamed buns?
But looking at Cheng Ke's dull eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little distressed. You said it was the same for Dad Cheng, who had a good life and had to go see his first love. A good first love was not easy to meet, and my wife found out about it.
However, upon being entrusted by others, Li Fanyu sighed and comforted: "Keke, I talked to my uncle for a long time last night. It seems that my uncle really didn't do anything to feel sorry for my aunt. You have to do this. I believe it, otherwise I wouldn’t be able to resist divorcing my aunt.”
Cheng Ke paused, "I know."
Li Fanyu was still preparing to continue persuading him. After hearing what she said, he immediately asked curiously: "Uncle, did you explain it to you last night?"
"No, my mother told me last night."
"Auntie?"
"Well, actually, my mother knew from the beginning to the end. My father received a call from Aunt Yao and learned that Aunt Yao had returned from abroad, and even when we went to have dinner together, my mother knew everything."
"I'm going to go!" Li Fanyu's head short-circuited for a moment. The amount of information was too much and he was a bit confused.
Since Mama Cheng knows this, why are you making such a big fuss?
Is fishing enforced? The couple is also playing this trick...it's scary to think about it!
Cheng Ke finally stuffed the poor bun into his mouth, puffed out his cheeks and said vaguely: "My mother said that a man's inner turmoil must be fully controlled and dealt with in time. Even if he knows that he is innocent, the starting point It’s also crooked. So you must make your departure clear and stick to your bottom line, and you must not give him any chance to nip this commotion in the bud.”
Li Fanyu was stunned, how could this rhetoric be so second-hand? Your mother is from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs!
Cheng Ke held his chin, let out a long sigh, and said quietly: "It turns out that maintaining a relationship is so troublesome. Brother Fan, you said that I am so stupid and I don't have as sophisticated methods as my mother. Will I be cheated after I get married?" Ah..."
Li Fanyu croaked: "You are so depressed, aren't you just obsessed with this matter?"
Cheng Ke tilted his head: "Yes."
"Holy shit..." Li Fanyu fell on the bed.
Seeing his speechless look, Cheng Ke rolled his eyes and approached: "Hey, Brother Fan, do you have a first love?"
"Yes!" Li Fanyu buried his face in the quilt and replied in a muffled voice.
"Tell me, when did it happen? High school? Or freshman year?"
"Kindergarten!"
"Wow, no way, what kind of first love do children talk about? How far have you progressed?"
"Humph, we all took naps on the same bed."
"Ah? What happened next? Are there still connections between primary and secondary schools?"
"No!"
"Why, such pure feelings."
Li Fanyu raised his head, grabbing the quilt with both hands, recalling the cause of his embarrassment. He covered his face and said: "Later I found out he was a boy..."
Cheng Ke was short-circuited. After a while, he started to ignite the blazing fire of gossip and grabbed his arm: "Ah! What is going on?"
"Children will be curious about the body of the opposite **** for a period of time, you know this, right?"
Cheng Ke's eyes widened and he shook his head.
"Hey, I lifted up his skirt and found out... our structures are the same..."
Cheng Ke was extremely surprised: "How could this happen!"
"Later...I heard that when he was born, the fortune teller said that he would not live to be ten years old, unless he was raised as a girl before the age of six. Then his heartless parents I gave him a girl’s name and wore girl’s clothes. How did I know that after lifting up his skirt, I cried all afternoon?”
Cheng Ke thought about Xiao Fanyu's embarrassment at that time, spitting out a mouthful of steamed buns, and immediately rolled on the bed laughing.
After joking about this guy for a while, Ke Ke finally returned to his normal state. After seeing his disheveled self in the mirror, he screamed and rushed into the bathroom.
While washing her face, she couldn't help but smile.
"Well, Brother Fan doesn't have a first love. If only, if only... Well! It would be one less trouble."
So Cheng Ke, who was in a good mood, took Li Fanyu to walk around the streets all morning. But there is no shopping benefit this time, because this girl didn't buy anything, just to stay with Li Fanyu for a while.
After lunch, Li Fanyu returned to the factory.
The factory still has the same moral character. A factory without production is as lifeless as a person without blood circulation. Only when it is running and busy can it be called a real factory.
A group of workers, led by Sun Guoyi, are maintaining and overhauling the equipment. If not, I'm afraid the workers would gather together to fight the landlords.
Thinking of Father Cheng's promise last night, Li Fanyu felt as if his heart was being gnawed by a swarm of ants. He had no time to wait for the other party to contact him, so he dialed the phone directly.
At this time, Cheng Boxian had just finished the meeting and returned to his office. Seeing Li Fanyu making a call, he quickly picked up the call and asked rudely: "How is Keke?"
Li Fanyu looked like a dogleg: "Uncle, don't worry, she has returned to normal, and she even went shopping in the morning."
"That's good. Thank you, Xiaofan, for taking your trouble."
"Yes, yes, yes. My uncle...it's about the engine..."
Cheng Boxian slapped his head: "I checked it for you, and there is a car company that is suitable. But to receive that order, I don't think you can handle it. Someone from the government needs to come forward."
Li Fanyu was ecstatic, it would be great if there was a way!
"Which one?"
Cheng Boxian paused: "Red flag."
"Red flag?!"
Li Fanyu was stunned, what was going on with this thunderous rush?
Hongqi Motors, the second oldest car company in China! Why say two? Because the first automobile factory in China was Dongfeng.
In 1957, Yiqi Company, the eldest son of the Republic, began to research cars, but cars had basically no basis in China at that time. Therefore, we could only directly use foreign cars and start copying them. However, the hard work paid off. At that time, Yiqi used sheet metal workers and cobblers to just build a Dongfeng brand car-CA71. Why is it called Dongfeng type? Because the great leader Chairman Mao once said: The east wind prevails over the west wind.
CA71 is directly "borrowed" from the styling of the French SIRNCAVE DETEE and the chassis of the Mercedes-Benz 190. But no matter how you say it, it can be regarded as the Virgo of Chinese cars.
But less than half a year after leaving the factory, something went wrong with this car—it was always broken. You know, the cars of that era were not for ordinary leaders, but for chiefs! When the chiefs go out to do errands, they can't carry a mechanic with them in addition to the guards, right?
So, the second year after the east wind passed, the second brother Hongqi was born. Hongqi's strategy at the time was still to play a big game, so it directly "referenced" the American Crown Imperial and named it Hongqi CA72. Although there are suspicions of copycats, the CA72 is generally reliable, at least it will not break down while walking. Moreover, it has a high positioning and is quite suitable as a leader’s car. I have to say Hongqi's good luck here. Not long after it went offline, it happened to coincide with the celebration of the tenth anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China.
It frequently appeared in a series of celebrations, establishing its status as a red flag and becoming an indelible classic.
However, in the automobile industry, if you don’t make progress, you are doomed to be eliminated. Hongqi did not seek advancement. After tasting the benefits of borrowing, it successively borrowed from Omeira and President City, and finally learned from the Japanese and built a Toyota Crown with the Hongqi logo. Driving further and further away on the crooked road, silently went away.
However, even though Hongqi has made consecutive mistakes for decades, which once led to the suspension of production, it still stands. However, people can only see him again in every National Day military parade, and he has become a complete spiritual symbol and political symbol.
In recent years, the declining Hongqi always wants to make a turnaround. They are producing luxury sedans and luxury SUVs. But even saying it makes my teeth hurt. The second brother has been imitating it and never wanted to surpass it. It’s really difficult for them to have suffered for decades.
(If you are interested, you can search for Hongqi’s luxury SUVs and compare them with Land Rover Range Rover. Then look at their respective price points, and you will know what is so funny.)
And now, they finally figured it out - times have changed.
If you want to succeed in China, you can no longer take the aloof route. The previous success was due to the fact that no one had a car, so when they saw the leader’s car, they would definitely feel admiration. But that's admiration for the privilege, not the car itself.
Only being close to the masses is the best chance to gain a new life.
So, after learning from the pain, Hongqi decided to spend 10 billion to develop new cars!
But the 10 billion yuan spent has not even reached one-tenth, and Hongqi’s old habit has returned. Some technical difficulties have not been overcome for a long time, and the idea of asking for help has arisen again.
What they are currently developing is a C-class car, which is what is called mid-to-large class in the market.
The current technical difficulties are mainly focused on the engine, gearbox and platform technology. So the top management waved his hand and said that the platform should be imported from Germany, the gearbox should be American, and the engine should be Mitsubishi.
As soon as this news came out, there was immediate condemnation in the domestic market. ——Didn’t we agree to be independent? Ten billion! Flag inserted into the dog? Did the dog enter the dog meat restaurant?
So now, Hongqi is in a dilemma. If you make it yourself, you will definitely not be able to do it in a short time. If the car is imported and has poor reputation, the turnaround battle will definitely fail.
Furthermore, flags are often brought up by bad actors to remind them.
This is embarrassing.
After listening to Cheng Boxian’s analysis, Li Fanyu’s eyes lit up; we are independent, we at ZGX888 are also independent! Hongqi’s second brother, we are a perfect match. . . . . .
