Upon hearing that Li Huaide had indeed successfully managed to secure food supplies, a slight commotion rippled through the meeting room, and excitement bloomed on everyone's faces.
Regardless of where their loyalties lay on ordinary days, at a time of immense production pressure like this, having food meant having a backbone, and everyone's burden would be considerably lightened. True, there was not much time left before the end of the year, and hopes of fulfilling the scheduled annual production quotas were already slim. But completing even a little more would allow them to save a bit of face when reporting to the Ministry of Industry at year's end.
Those who closely followed Li Huaide on a daily basis were even more overcome with excitement at this moment. They knew very well that with this batch of food, Li Huaide's position in the Rolling Mill would undoubtedly become even more secure. As long as subsequent maneuvers were handled properly, squeezing out Director Yang and successfully stepping into the role officially was not an impossible dream. Once Li Huaide rose to power, these followers of his would naturally rise right along with him and reap plenty of benefits.
