Chapter 1319 Investigate the Cause

The car drove all the way to the industrial park on the outskirts of Nanwan City.

This is the latest industrial zone in South Bay, where almost all the largest factories are concentrated.

There are shuttle vehicles everywhere at the entrance of the industrial park, among which fire trucks are the most.

The raging fire has been gradually extinguished, but the billowing black smoke still hasn't stopped, and can be seen hundreds of meters away.

Longxing Optical Fiber was not very famous here before, and the optical fiber transmission equipment it made was only sold to Baodao and Southeast Asian countries.

However, since it received the order from Huaguo Dentsu last year, it has been completely booming. In the past two months, it has received orders from the two giants Lianshu and Mobile Communications. Longxing Optical Fiber has become another rise The trend of the Baodao factory.

From last year to this year, Longxing Optical Fiber doubled its factory area in one go, and recruited more than 8,000 workers.

It was at the moment when he was working hard, such a huge blow suddenly came, which really made Zhen Qidong, the boss of Longxing Optical Fiber, want to cry.

The current loss has not been fully counted, but the value of the goods to be shipped this morning exceeded 200 million.

The businessmen in Baodao are very stingy, which is similar to the Japanese.

Of course, if they were not stingy, how could they win so many markets with their second-rate technology?

Isn't it because of reducing the cost to the lowest minimum, and then relying on the meager profit of 5%-10%, to win the favor of those European and American companies who want to make people work for nothing, and get a large number of orders?

5%-10% of the profit has to be allocated to machine wear, water and electricity, workers' salaries, etc. The profit in the hands of the merchants in Baodao is generally 3%, and it can exceed 5% if it is better. That's all.

Otherwise, Guo Taiming will have more than 2 million workers in the future, why is he still just the richest man in Taiwan, with only a few billion dollars in property?

The same is true for Zhen Qidong. With a machine worth 200 million yuan, his profit is about 10 million yuan. After such a fire, it will take 20 weeks of work in vain to get it back.

In addition, there are various compensation losses for factories, production lines, dormitory buildings, and employee casualties. The total loss of this trip is at least 500 million yuan, and almost a year is considered busy.

Fortunately, in addition to Huaguo Telecom’s still large orders, recent orders from Huaguo Mobile Communications and Lianshu have already begun to come in. With the current number of orders, they will still be able to make money in the future. What we have to do now is to hurry up Smooth out events. Put all your heart and soul into production, as long as you can keep the order, there is hope for everything.

"boss!"

When he was sitting in the office to take a breath, suddenly a manager came in hastily: "Those workers are causing trouble, and they want you to pay their fellow villagers' medical expenses, funeral expenses, and compensation quickly, otherwise they will Not going to work!"

"Nonsense!" Zhen Qidong slammed his cup. He said angrily: "When is this? Why are you still worrying about this? You find out who instigated it, and when you're done with your work, fire him!"

"yes!"

The manager nodded, but did not move: "But their request..."

"Let them take their time, I will deal with it! The most important thing for the factory now is to resume production, and the order cannot be delayed, otherwise they will have no jobs!" Zhen Qidong said earnestly: "Why don't you understand this truth? Really A bunch of farmers!"

"But no matter what I say, they just don't move. If they say they can't see the money, they don't believe us!" The subordinate said with a bitter face.

"Humph!"

Zhen Qidong's face was uncertain, and after thinking for a while, he said: "Forget it, I'd better go to the financial office to raise 1 million, and settle their hearts first. Otherwise, it will be a troublesome thing if reporters come to interview!"

"But I did the math, it will cost at least 20 million!"

"Idiot! Don't you know how to fool them first? If you suffer from such a thing, you need money for everything. Where can I get 20 million for a while? Get out! If you can't do it, don't come back!"

Amid Zhen Qidong's cursing, his subordinates fled in embarrassment.

It was at this time that Li Xiaochao, Xiao Qi, Zhang Qingqing and others quietly entered the chaotic factory area.

It is said that Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macao are integrated, and Li Xiaochao's energy in Nanwan is also very large. The police who originally maintained law and order and prevented any irrelevant people from entering or leaving, not only let them in, but also had five or six policemen to guide them.

"Please take us to the burned dormitory area." Xiao Qi made such a request.

The police didn't ask much, and after going around a few times, they brought Xiao Qi to the burned dormitory area.

I met many people in the middle, including firefighters who were in charge of fighting the fire, policemen who were in charge of public security protection, and even more workers who looked flustered and terrified.

Seeing that there are obviously two houses with different buildings, and the visual distance is only about 5 meters, Xiao Qi frowned, "Shouldn't the safe fire distance meet the requirements? It's so close, something happened in the factory building , won’t it also implicate the dormitory area?”

"Isn't it just to save costs!" There were also workers standing in a daze next to them. Seeing that they were leaders, they answered after hearing the words: "The extra site can open an additional production line and save land rent costs. , what's wrong?"

"Don't talk nonsense!" A policeman hurriedly stopped.

Xiao Qi looked at him, "Since when are people not even allowed to talk? Could it be that he is spreading rumors?"

The policeman quickly lowered his head and stepped aside.

He didn't know Xiao Qi, but the director of the Public Security Bureau personally arranged for them to come in, naming them "important guests" by name.

Besides, the bodyguards of Xiao Qi and Li Xiaochao knew at a glance that they were retired soldiers. It is impossible for someone with such a style in China to be a local boss.

To be a policeman in Nanwan, one must have good eyesight.

"Brother, do you know why this house is on fire, and the fire is so big?" Xiao Qi continued to ask the person who spoke to him.

The worker was just complaining, but he hesitated if he really wanted to speak.

Xiao Qi nodded, and the bodyguard next to him walked over and stuffed a pile of banknotes. A sharp-eyed policeman checked it visually, and it was at least 20,000 to 30,000.

With so much money, the worker hesitated for a moment, and blurted out: "Because those boys messed up wires everywhere and didn't take measures to prevent electric leakage, so they caused a fire. There are many wooden and plastic structures in these dormitory buildings. The warehouse lacks fire prevention measures, so when it is set on fire, all of them will be burned!" (To be continued..)
