369: Chapter 368 It would be better to give zero points.

Falling into a pit is something everyone has experienced; the only difference is whose pit they fall into.

Some people fall in passively, reluctantly, and involuntarily, like Han Xiaoxin.

Others do so voluntarily, eagerly, and independently, like Mayor Fang Dingbei, General Manager Yu Tongguang, and now, Director Jiao must be added to that list.

Looking at the somewhat dazed Director Jiao in front of him, Wang Shuo turned to Mayor Fang Dingbei with a bit of embarrassment and said, "Senior Brother, I tested the effects of these things yesterday. It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"

"It's fine, it's fine."

Before Mayor Fang Dingbei could speak, Director Jiao hurriedly chimed in.

"Um..."

Wang Shuo said with some hesitation, "They flew quite a distance. That shouldn't be a problem either, right?"

"Not a problem!"

Director Jiao replied resolutely.

"And it's fine even if they caused a bit of a commotion?"

Director Jiao grew slightly alert and asked, "A commotion? How big?"

Wang Shuo looked at Director Jiao and said with a hint of apology, "Well, a few of them detonated, and an alloy door got blown up..."

Director Jiao let out a breath. He had wondered what it could be, but it was just a blown-up alloy door. What was the big deal?

"Of course..."

Before Director Jiao could say anything, Wang Shuo continued, "It might have caught the military's attention..."

"Uh..."

The words choked in his throat, and Director Jiao almost gasped for air.

"Alright, Junior Brother."

Mayor Fang Dingbei smiled and said, "This is what you wanted to talk about, right? Go ahead, how do you need us to cooperate?"

"This test was conducted by the Police Station,"

Wang Shuo said, "And the order was issued by Director Jiao."

Director Jiao didn't say a word, only staring at Wang Shuo with a dark, brooding gaze.

"And the reason?"

Mayor Fang Dingbei asked.

"To cooperate with the special forces in an arrest operation,"

Wang Shuo said calmly.

Mayor Fang Dingbei frowned and turned his gaze to Director Jiao.

Director Jiao nodded slightly.

Only then did Mayor Fang Dingbei's brow furrow relax, and he smiled. "Very well."

He then asked, "When will the equipment for the test arrive?"

"Right now."

Wang Shuo took out his phone and said softly, "Zero, deploy one hundred modified Guard No. 1s to the Hanzhong City Police Department and transfer control."

With that, he slipped his phone back into his pocket.

"That's it?"

Mayor Fang Dingbei was somewhat surprised.

"That's it."

Wang Shuo nodded and said, "The Guard No. 1s are already on their way to the Police Station. Director Jiao, I'll have to trouble you to arrange personnel to receive them."

Director Jiao had no objections. He picked up his phone and walked to the side, seemingly calling the Police Station to coordinate the deployment.

"That really is convenient,"

Mayor Fang Dingbei sighed with emotion. "Technology really does change lives. If only administrative work could be handled this way too."

General Manager Yu Tongguang smiled and said, "Mayor Fang can let Wang Shuo give it a try. I don't think it would be too difficult."

Mayor Fang Dingbei shook his head with a bitter smile.

"I was just saying. Administrative work is never that simple. It's better to let my Junior Brother focus his efforts on entertainment and promote the zero egg as soon as possible."

Before they could finish speaking, Director Jiao hung up his phone and walked back over. He glanced at General Manager Yu Tongguang and Wang Shuo, then whispered something in Mayor Fang Dingbei's ear.

Mayor Fang Dingbei's eyes narrowed slightly, and he then looked at Wang Shuo and General Manager Yu Tongguang.

"General Manager Yu, Junior Brother, the land has been approved. You can start construction as soon as possible. I have some urgent business to attend to, so I'll take my leave first."

His voice was still gentle, but Wang Shuo could still detect a hint of gravity in it.

General Manager Yu Tongguang smiled and nodded. "Safe travels, Mayor Fang."

Once Mayor Fang Dingbei got into his car and the large group departed one after another, the site quickly returned to silence, leaving only the black business van they had arrived in parked not far away.

"It wasn't easy,"

General Manager Yu Tongguang sighed as he looked at the plot of land before them. "This is the first time we've acquired land rights so quickly."

Wang Shuo was somewhat curious. "With the capabilities of Huaneng Company, are there really plots of land you can't acquire?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang smiled faintly. "It's not that we can't acquire it, but rather that we couldn't possibly do so within three days. President Wang, you are truly a hidden dragon, keeping yourself incredibly well-concealed."

Wang Shuo was slightly speechless.

"Would you believe me if I said this plot of land has nothing to do with me?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang didn't say anything, only looking at Wang Shuo with a faint smile, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Alright."

Wang Shuo had nothing left to say.

"Mayor Fang Dingbei is no ordinary person. The fact that he openly acknowledged your relationship in front of so many people already says it all,"

General Manager Yu Tongguang explained slowly, without saying more. Some things, if you understand them, you understand them; if you don't, explaining them is useless.

Wang Shuo nodded thoughtfully.

"By the way, President Wang,"

General Manager Yu Tongguang seemed to recall something and said to Wang Shuo, "Was the recruitment matter you just promised Mayor Fang real or fake? Are you really planning to recruit fifteen thousand people?"

"Yes."

Wang Shuo nodded gently.

"Why recruit so many people?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang frowned slightly and said, "With so many people gathered together, setting aside how much labor compensation is needed, just managing their basic daily needs and logistics is a massive problem. President Wang, you have no experience in project management, so I'm afraid this might backfire on you."

"I know."

Wang Shuo nodded.

When it comes to project management, there is a massive gap between superior and inferior systems, which is reflected in project efficiency, quality, personnel management, and various other aspects.

If an inferior system is valued at one, then a superior system could easily be valued at ten, or even a hundred.

Why is advanced management experience so valuable?

Because it can truly and practically improve a company's operational efficiency. This isn't a simple, incremental improvement, but an exponential one.

This was also one of the reasons why Liu Yemei had the confidence to demand fifty thousand yuan from the very beginning—because she was worth that price.

Everything is always easier said than done. Personnel management sounds simple enough, but when you actually do it, you begin to discover all sorts of problems.

If someone has never managed people before, even if you give them ten people, they will still make a complete mess of it.

With ten thousand people, if there isn't a good management system and capable managers, the sheer friction of everyone getting in each other's way would waste a vast amount of resources.

"Since you know this, I won't say any more. What do you plan to do?"

"It's very simple."

Wang Shuo looked out at the wilderness and said, "If I don't know how to manage, I'll just leave it to someone else. Isn't that what a boss is supposed to do?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang was somewhat speechless and said, "Does your company even have talent capable of managing ten thousand people at once? Liu Yemei? Or that Xu Kexin?"

"Neither."

Wang Shuo shook his head and said, "Both of them are very busy. They probably don't have time to worry about such a trivial matter."

"A trivial matter?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang laughed. "Then, my dear President Wang, I would certainly love to know how you plan to solve this 'trivial matter'."

"Like I said, it's very simple."

Wang Shuo withdrew his gaze from the wilderness and said, "Give everyone something to do, nest their tasks within one another, and push forward as a cohesive whole."

General Manager Yu Tongguang laughed and shook his head. "When all is said and done, isn't that just the same old concept of everyone performing their respective duties?"

He shook his head with a smile. "I know the theory too, but how do you actually execute it?"

Everyone knows that the crux of management lies in everyone performing their respective duties, but while those words are simple to write, executing them is as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Otherwise, so many companies wouldn't go bankrupt every year due to management issues.

As an experienced veteran, General Manager Yu Tongguang naturally understood this very well.

Wang Shuo glanced at the somewhat smug General Manager Yu Tongguang and said with a peculiar look in his eyes, "Wouldn't it be solved if I just handed out a zero egg to each of them?"

"Uh?"

General Manager Yu Tongguang was instantly dumbfounded.
