"I trust you and Su Lin to some extent, so I need a definite answer: how much influence do you Communists have?"
Lu Manli thoughtfully considered Qin Yu's question, feeling that it was a rather profound one.
Her response was equally profound: "Su Lin and I are probably the kind of people who can increase the chance of success for a decision by 30%. So, if you want to use the Communist party to achieve something, it depends on whether what you want to do aligns with our revolutionary principles and morality."
Each with 30%? That adds up to a 60% chance of success, meaning that, as long as her proposal was reliable, it could basically be successful.
Qin Yu: "I can only say that what I want to do is absolutely in the national interest."
She paused, then looked at Lu Manli, "You can ask the guy outside, who's bound to be disliked by women in the future, to bring in paper and pen."
Lu Manli thought for a moment, smiled, and went out.
Su Lin came in and brought paper and pen.
