He said to He Fang, "I'm going to Pujiang. Are you okay staying at home alone?"
Actually, he was worried about leaving He Fang alone at home.
"You're so fussy. I'm fine alone. Besides, there's an auntie. If I can't even take care of a child, I might as well find a piece of tofu to knock into. Just go and do your own thing. You're getting more and more unreasonable. " He Fang scolded him as she cleaned up for him. A good man's ambition was to travel far and wide. Naturally, she didn't like Li He cooped up all day and doing nothing. She found a down jacket from the closet and compared it to his body. She was satisfied with it, folded it, and put it into the suitcase. She said, "It's cold over there. I've put the thick clothes in the suitcase for you. You have to wear them when you get off the plane."
She adapted to this place rather quickly. Now, she often went shopping alone and went grocery shopping alone.
Li He hugged her and leaned against her head as he said, "Is it wrong for me to feel sorry for you?"
"I'm busy. Don't get in the way." He Fang still pushed him away and went about her own business. She didn't forget to remind him, "It's fine. Drink less and smoke less." "Got it, got it. Now you're the one being fussy. " “
Li He was helpless. He Fang didn't fall for this. Many sweet nothings didn't work on her.
What did it feel like to marry a capable wife?
What did it feel like to marry a particularly rational wife?
He finally understood now.
When they got off the plane, it was already past four in the afternoon. The people who came to pick them up were Pinsong and Yu Dehua's secretaries.
Ping Song helped to take over the luggage. Secretary Wu helped him get some clothes and let him change into a down jacket. The cold air of Pujiang had arrived.
After getting into the car, Li He couldn't help but look out the window. In the cold weather, everything had returned to its monotonous color. The pedestrians on the street were all wearing grey or black jackets. However, to him, everything was full of vigor and enthusiasm.
At the intersection, he saw the five-meter-tall police box and couldn't help but laugh. The traffic police sat in the sentry box and used their hands to control the signal lights. When they saw a violation, they could only use the horn to shout and could not come out to correct.
Passing by some alleys, you can see a long line of people fetching water. Zhabei and some shanty towns at the edge of Yangpu don't even have running water. For the people of Laopu River, fetching water from the water station is a daily task, and there is a limited supply.
Not only in this city, but also in this country, there were too many things in limited supply, such as washing machines, cameras, watches, and furniture. There was a queue to buy a TV, and there was a queue to buy a sewing machine.
You don't need to line up to buy ordinary clothes, but you still need to line up to buy the latest fashion.
There was even a long queue at the entrance of the bus. The monotonous advertisement of Zhonghua toothpaste was displayed on the bus: Medicated toothpaste, anti-inflammatory, hemostasis, deodorant.
The bus conductors were all Lao Ai, corresponding to the uncles. When the bus pulled into the station, the triangular red flag in their hands banged loudly against the window.
They asked everyone to get on the bus in order. Don't panic, don't mess around, and most importantly, don't evade the fare. They had the imposing manner of commanding thousands of troops and horses.
Of course, the Lao Ai of Pujiang were very powerful. There were female drivers, female lathe workers, and female welders. The kindness and gentleness of the uncles in Pujiang couldn't be without their docility.
Thirty years of earth-shattering changes were often the most life-changing, and the most detailed changes.
The Four Seas Hotel was located in Huaihai. It was a newly built twelve-story building that integrated accommodation and dining into one. This was advocated by Shoushan to be in line with international standards. This was something that Li He didn't expect. Opposite it was the Pujiang Science Hall on the sixteenth floor, which was elegant and grand.
There was a garden around it, and the leaves of the trees inside had almost withered. There were leaves on both sides of the road.
In this area, the Four Seas Hotel was the most extravagant, and there was no lack of people coming and going at the entrance.
Chen Dadi was already waiting at the entrance in a suit and tie. He helped Li He open the car door and said with a smile, "I've been waiting for you for a long time."
Li He pulled up the zipper of his down jacket to the collar, then punched Chen Dadi's chest and teased, "You look good in it."
Chen Dadi said politely, "It's all thanks to you."
Li He was about to go up the stairs. When he heard this, he couldn't help but turn around and ask, "When did we become so distant?"
Chen Dadi winked at him mischievously.
Li He laughed. Chen Dadi was trying to find a place for him. There were employees in front of him and behind him, and he had to set an example. He put his arm around Chen Dadi's shoulder and said, "Let's go in together. We haven't had a good drink in a long time. Old Shen and Old Yu are both cowards when it comes to drinking. "
"Of course, no problem. You decide how much to drink." “
The banquet was very sumptuous, but there were only Chen Dadi, Pinsong, and Secretary Wu at the table.
Halfway through the banquet, Li He asked the secretary, "Where's Old Yu? He shouldn't be so busy, right?"
He was still anxious to ask Yu Dehua about the progress of the Pudong project.
"Have you forgotten? According to your request, Mr. Yu brought the Construction Engineering Group's engineering team to Germany to participate in the Hannover Expo. "Secretary Wu's full name was Wu Shuping. She was one of the few people who knew Li He's real identity.
"When?" Li He had really forgotten about this. He had just spoken to Yu Dehua on the phone the day before yesterday.
Wu Shuping said, "Yesterday afternoon, he was the one who asked me to pick you up from the airport."
"Oh, I got it." Li He could only wait for Yu Dehua to come back. It was necessary to participate in this exhibition. He could understand the world's latest building materials technology, engineering materials, light construction, and material trends.
Especially for such a high-rise building, it posed a challenge to the project design, the use of the construction site, and the handling of the materials. Li He had already paid for the Construction Engineering Group's team to go to America, Hong Kong, Singapore, and other places to learn and advance the project step by step.
China currently had no experience with high-rise buildings. More learning and experience could save them a lot of trouble.
So whether or not they had the ability to carry out the construction of high-rise buildings, Li He believed that they definitely did. It mainly depended on how to integrate resources in the country.
Policies such as the "Spark Plan," "Torch Plan," "863 Plan," etc., were the integration of technical resources at the national level, and the selection of outstanding talents from all over the country to tackle technical problems. It basically covered every corner of economic construction. Space technology, high-energy physics, biological science, medicine, health, geology, chemistry, and other important scientific and technological fields had achieved a series of world-class results.
Li He could not achieve this kind of integration at the national level. For a world-class project like the Qinghai-Tibet Railway, even if he had money, it would not work. It must be coordinated at the national level. Sometimes he was also very convinced by state-owned enterprises. Building railways in no man's land, building power grids in no man's land, and building signal towers in no man's land was a loss-making business.
Therefore, Li He was opposed to inefficient privatization. In many cases, private enterprises would not be more efficient than state-owned enterprises. Most people did not necessarily oppose state-owned enterprises. They only opposed monopolies, but the monopoly of private enterprises was more terrible than the monopoly of state-owned enterprises.
Simple liberal economic ideas were laughable.
Of course, he did not need to reach this level of integration. The technical difficulty of the skyscraper he was currently building was not as high as the difficulty of the Gezhouba Hydropower Station.
