Like A Flowing River 3 大江大河之岁月如歌 Episode 18

Lu Xiaodi told Song Yunhui that every era has its own limitations. If you don't take this step and still have the idea of ​​eating from the big pot, even if bamboo amine is successfully developed in the future, high-end automated production machinery will inevitably be used to replace these Manpower and redundant personnel are eliminated.

Song Yunhui admitted that what Little Brother Lu said was right, and he didn't feel that his idea was wrong. He only felt a sense of defeat and powerlessness. After returning to the factory, Song Yunhui approached Cao Zili to discuss changing his research and development ideas. Since bamboo amine as a pesticide cannot resist insects for a long time, it might as well be converted into a sanitary agricultural pesticide. However, Cao Zili believed that these were two completely different directions and decisively rejected Song Yunhui's proposal.

Song Yunhui and Cao Zili then reported their work to the ministry and admitted that they had not produced the final results within the prescribed time limit. In order to give the Pengyang factory another chance, Cao Zili changed his mind temporarily and submitted a research document on sanitary pesticides and insecticides, which gradually aroused the interest of the leaders. There was a heated discussion in the ministry meeting. Song Yunhui and Cao Zili waited anxiously in the reception room until they were informed of the news about returning to Pengyang Factory. Most of their hopes were shattered in an instant.

Wei Chunhong felt uncomfortable living in Xiaoleijia Village, and felt that she had delayed Lei Dongbao, so she filed for divorce from him again. Lei Dongbao still didn't agree and promised to take her and Yangyang to move to the city after settling the matter. At this time, Gong Xinming suddenly came to Lei Dongbao and wanted him to hand over the trademark. However, Lei Dongbao had no room for negotiation, and he completely fell out with Lei Dongbao and threatened to get the trademark back.

That night, Lei Dongbao came to Chen Pingyuan smelling of alcohol, hoping that he could ask Sun Qingshan for help. Chen Pingyuan persuaded Lei Dongbao not to confront Gong Xinming, let alone count on Sun Qingshan to come forward, but Lei Dongbao still had the idea of ​​giving it a try. Through Chen Pingyuan, Lei Dongbao successfully met with Sun Qingshan, took the initiative to admit his mistake to him, and agreed to hand over the trademark, provided that he had to bring down Gong Xinming, otherwise he would have no place for his own survival.

Sun Qingshan accused Lei Dongbao of admitting his mistake too late and has not yet realized the seriousness of the problem, and he has decided to take back Lei Dongbao's general manager position. Lei Dongbao took the opportunity to propose the idea of ​​transforming the collective enterprise into a joint-stock company. Sure enough, Sun Qingshan was moved by it. Compared to his own career, stabbing Gong Xinming in the back was nothing.

On the other hand, Gong Xinming found Shi Hongwei and Lei Zhengming and planned to remove Lei Dongbao at the Thunder staff meeting, hoping that they could help him. Shi Hongwei was loyal to Lei Dongbao and declared on the spot that he would never betray him. If he left the Thunder Factory, he would follow him.

When Shi Hongwei walked out angrily, Lei Zhengming was still sitting on the sofa, deep in thought. Gong Xinming struck while the iron was hot to win over Lei Zhengming, promising that he would hand over power to Lei Dongbao as soon as he stepped down. However, Lei Zhengming did not respond. Shi Hongwei wanted to inform Lei Dongbao, but Lei Zhengming blocked him and reminded him to think more about himself.

At the workers' congress, some workers scolded Lei Dongbao for being greedy and making a fuss over bonuses and dividends. Some workers who supported Lei Dongbao also rebuffed him without showing any signs of weakness. The two groups were tit for tat, and Lei Dongbao suddenly came over with money and told everyone that if anyone was dissatisfied with him, he could just take the money and sign and leave.

Everyone waited for a long time before Gong Xinming showed up, but they didn't know that he had been transferred by the county. Gong Xinming felt extremely uncomfortable and could only obey the organization's arrangements. Gong Xinming sat alone in the office and shed tears. Finally, he carried his luggage and walked out the door. He turned around and saw Lei Dongbao standing by the window. Thinking back on the past of the two of them, he still showed a meaningful and bitter smile. Lei Dongbao then called everyone to a meeting and announced that Thunder Cluster would be restructured into Thunder Co., Ltd.
