Chapter 216 Chen Yanshi got on the pirate ship!
In the workshop of Dafeng Factory, a dull atmosphere permeated the air amid the roar of machines.
The workers repeated the same tasks day after day, as if they were trapped in a numb cycle.
They regard this job as a stable job and holding on to the ideas of the older generation, they are unwilling to change easily, fearing that they will lose money after getting involved in other businesses. So they use "defending the land and fighting the war" as an excuse, but in fact they are trapped in a dilemma of not wanting to make progress.
As the factory director, Cai Chenggong has tried to make changes.
He once tried to win over some old workers to explore new business areas and find new business opportunities.
However, every time he proposed these ideas, he was rejected by the workers.
In desperation, Cai Chenggong could only secretly try some other business investments on his own, but the results were not satisfactory and he indeed lost money.
This also made the workers more convinced that their conservative approach was correct, further deepening their resistance.
At this time, Chen Yanshi came to Dafeng Factory. He knew that the workers' state was extremely unfavorable to the future development of the factory, and decided to change this situation.
Standing in an open space in the workshop, surrounded by workers, Chen Yanshi cleared his throat and began his important speech.
“My fellow workers!”
Chen Yanshi's voice was loud and firm. "We live in an era of rapid change, which is full of opportunities and challenges. We can no longer hold on to the old ideas and the so-called iron rice bowl. We must bravely welcome the arrival of the new era and prepare for our future."
The workers looked up and looked at Chen Yanshi with confusion and curiosity in their eyes.
Chen Yanshi continued, "Look at our current Dafeng plant. Although it is still running, we cannot be satisfied with the status quo. We cannot be afraid of failure and fear of losing money and dare not try new things. If we continue like this, sooner or later we will be eliminated by the times. We must believe in our abilities. We have hands and wisdom, and we can create a better life."
He mentioned some other cases of successful transformation of factories, describing how they bravely innovated in difficult situations, opened up new markets, and ultimately achieved the rebirth and development of the enterprises.
"Our Dafeng factory also has its own advantages. We have skilled workers and rich production experience. We can find new development directions based on current market demand. For example, we can consider upgrading and innovating existing products to increase the added value of products; we can also explore some emerging industrial fields and look for cooperation opportunities related to our factory."
Chen Yanshi's words were full of passion and appeal, and the workers began to whisper and talk among themselves.
"What Mr. Chen said makes sense. We can't go on like this," said an old worker.
"But can we really do it? What if we lose money again?" another worker said worriedly.
Chen Yanshi heard the workers' discussion, he smiled and said: "My fellow workers, I know you have concerns. However, if we don't try, we will never have a chance to succeed. We have to take it step by step, starting with small changes. We can organize some training to improve everyone's skills and knowledge level, so that we have more ability to deal with new challenges. Moreover, we are not fighting alone, we must unite and work together. As long as we have confidence and determination, we will be able to create a bright future for our Dafeng Factory!"
A glimmer of hope gradually ignited in the workers' eyes, and they began to agree with Chen Yanshi's words and nodded one after another.
Meanwhile, Cai Chenggong had ulterior motives.
He saw that Chen Yanshi's speech attracted the attention and response of the workers, and he started to make his own plans in mind.
He secretly arranged for people to take photos and videos in the corner, attempting to use Chen Yanshi's speech as a bargaining chip for his own loans.
He thought that if the bank could see Chen Yanshi's support for Dafeng Factory and the workers' enthusiasm, it might be easier to get a loan and ease his financial pressure.
At this moment, Gao Gang's men also mixed into the crowd.
They were all experienced informants who were keenly aware of the anomaly at the scene. They quickly discovered Cai Chenggong's little trick and realized that there must be something fishy going on.
So, they started recording the video without making any noise, preparing to report the situation here to Qi Tongwei in detail.
They carefully observed the workers' reactions and recorded the content of Chen Yanshi's speech and the atmosphere on the scene.
After the meeting, Gao Gang's people quickly reported the detailed situation at the Dafeng Factory to Gao Gang. Gao Gang then rushed to Qi Tongwei without stopping and explained the situation to him in detail.
After listening to the report, Qi Tongwei and Gao Gang looked at each other and couldn't help but smile meaningfully.
"Chen Yanshi, oh Chen Yanshi, just for that little bit of fame, you got on board a pirate ship."
Qi Tongwei said with a hint of sarcasm. In his opinion, Chen Yanshi, as the president of the procuratorate, should have acted more cautiously, but he was so easily used by Cai Chenggong and involved in the dispute at Dafeng Factory.
He knew very well that Chen Yanshi had deep roots in Dafeng Factory and was one of the founders of the factory, but in Qi Tongwei's eyes, this was not a reason for him to act so impulsively.
In this complex social environment, any small action may be exploited by people with ulterior motives and become a tool for capital operation.
"Yes, in this era, information asymmetry is the key to wealth. Cai Chenggong is really good at taking advantage of this kind of loophole."
Gao Gang echoed. He was also somewhat surprised by Cai Chenggong's methods. When various rules and regulations were not perfect, Cai Chenggong cleverly took advantage of these loopholes and tried to make huge profits.
This behavior not only harms the interests of Dafeng Factory workers, but may also have a negative impact on the entire market order.
After Qi Tongwei pondered for a moment, he said to Gao Gang, "Gao Gang, keep an eye on Cai Chenggong and pay close attention to his every move. I want to see what tricks he wants to play next. At this time, we can't take it lightly. Any detail may affect our judgment and control of the entire situation."
Gao Gang nodded and left.
He is fully aware of the heavy responsibility he shoulders, and behind Cai Chenggong's behavior may be deeper interests and power games.
He must be like a sharp eagle, always keeping a close eye on his prey and not missing any clues.
After receiving Qi Tongwei's order, Gao Gang immediately launched a close tracking operation on Cai Chenggong.
He arranged his experienced informants to keep a close eye on those who took photos at the Dafeng Factory.
After some patient tracking, the informants successfully discovered that the people who took the photos eventually reunited with Cai Chenggong.
Gao Gang's men decisively took photos of their reunion, and these photos became one of the important clues for the subsequent investigation.
In the next few days, Gao Gang personally led the team to conduct all-round tracking and surveillance of Cai Chenggong.
They found that Cai Chenggong was unusually active and frequently contacted people from some banks and officials.
Every contact was recorded in detail by Gao Gang's people, including key information such as time, place, and participants.
These contacts undoubtedly aroused Gao Gang's high vigilance. He realized that Cai Chenggong was planning something unknown, and these things were likely closely related to the future direction of Dafeng Factory and the power and interest game behind it.
Gao Gang knew very well that getting rid of Cai Chenggong would be a key step in controlling Dafeng Factory.
Cai Chenggong holds 51% of the shares. Once he takes it, he will become the legitimate legal representative of Dafeng Factory and thus have complete control over the decision-making power of Dafeng Factory.
Qi Tongwei was thinking that after taking over the Dafeng Factory, as long as he provided the workers with enough bargaining chips and met their certain interests, he would not have to worry about not being able to smoothly advance subsequent plans, such as evacuating the place and carrying out project transformation.
Moreover, in his opinion, Chen Yanshi's joining Cai Chenggong's "pirate ship" was an opportunity that could be exploited. He felt that Chen Yanshi relied on his red background and sometimes acted too casually, and even Li Dakang did not give him face.
Now we can take this opportunity to resolve the possible interference caused by Chen Yanshi.
While Gao Gang continued to track Cai Chenggong and collect more evidence, he began to plan how to cleverly use this evidence to gain control of the Dafeng Factory.
He maintained close communication with Qi Tongwei, reporting the latest progress at any time. Qi Tongwei also gave full support and guidance to Gao Gang's work, and the two discussed response strategies together.
During this process, Gao Gang's team always maintained a high level of vigilance and professionalism.
They did not miss any details, whether it was Cai Chenggong's facial expressions and movements when talking with others, or the documents and materials they exchanged, they recorded and analyzed them as much as possible.
These efforts are not only to complete the task, but also to take the initiative in this complex power struggle and win greater benefits for their side. As the investigation deepens, Gao Gang is more and more convinced that they are gradually getting closer to the truth of the matter, and the goal of successfully controlling the Dafeng Factory seems to be becoming more and more within reach.
Next, it’s time to get straight to the point with Cai Chenggong.
The people from the Municipal Party Committee didn’t say anything.
The government people didn’t say anything either.
But everyone knows it.
The key to breaking the deadlock lies in Dafeng Factory.
If we can solve this problem, we can complete the Guangming District project.
In fact, according to Qi Tongwei's idea, there is no need to demolish the Dafeng Factory, only the industrial structure upgrade needs to be completed.
But that's what being an official is like.
Even if you are the boss.
The people below disagreed and all agreed that if you want to do this, you have to do it this way.
You have a veto.
The people below also have the right to not support.
It's a differential election, differential voting.
However, Qi Tongwei believes that there is room for mediation in all of this, and one person may not be inferior to a group of people.
"Pass my order to go to Dafeng Factory."
"Yes!"
The secretary immediately went to prepare.
soon.
When the news that Qi Tongwei led a team to inspect Dafeng Factory spread, it was like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples throughout the entire Dafeng Factory, and the place suddenly fell into a subtle and tense atmosphere.
Cai Chenggong, a usually cunning character, seemed to smell an opportunity. He rushed to the factory as soon as possible and began to spread his carefully fabricated information to the workers, attempting to stir up the situation in the coming storm and seek benefits for himself.
"My fellow workers!" Cai Chenggong said loudly with an anxious look on his face, "Do you know what the newly appointed deputy mayor Qi Tongwei is thinking? He actually plans to demolish our factory!"
When the workers heard this, they were like ants in a pot, whispering to each other, and their faces immediately showed deep worry and anger. They have shed countless sweat in this factory, which carries their lives and hopes. Now that they heard that the factory was going to be demolished, how could they not be anxious.
Cai Chenggong looked at the workers' reactions and couldn't help feeling secretly proud.
But on the surface, he still pretended to be worried about everyone, and continued to exaggerate, "Think about it carefully, demolishing a factory and demolishing a house are two completely different things! If you demolish a house, you can get a huge compensation, but Qi Tongwei plans to demolish our factory, but at most he only intends to compensate each person for one year. How can this be accepted? We have worked hard in this factory for so many years, and dedicated our youth here, and this is just a little compensation? Isn't this bullying!"
After hearing this, many workers became increasingly dissatisfied and began to complain, with some even starting to curse.
"Then what should we do? Boss Cai, we can't just watch him demolish the factory!"
A worker asked loudly and anxiously, his eyes full of confusion and worry about the future.
Cai Chenggong pretended to be calm and waved his hands, trying to calm everyone down, saying, "Don't worry, we have Chen Yanshi backing us up. We don't have to be afraid of him, the deputy mayor. Chen Yanshi has always cared about our Dafeng Factory and everyone. He is our strong backer and will definitely do us justice."
When the workers heard Chen Yanshi's name, their emotions calmed down a little. After all, Chen Yanshi had a certain prestige and influence in their hearts.
Then, Cai Chenggong said cunningly: "But we still have to give him the face he deserves. We should hold a small welcome party. After all, he is the deputy mayor, and a higher position can crush people. But at the welcome party, everyone should know what to say and what not to say. We must unite and let Qi Tongwei know that we are not easy to bully, but we can't be too impulsive, so as not to cause ourselves more trouble. We must safeguard our rights and interests in a clever way."
The workers nodded in agreement. Although they were worried about the future of the factory, under Cai Chenggong's instigation, they decided to fight for their own rights.
Cai Chenggong's purpose was obvious. He wanted to make Dafeng Factory a nail firmly stuck in Qi Tongwei's plan, and through the workers' boycott, make things difficult for Qi Tongwei for at least two years.
In this way, he could not only disrupt Qi Tongwei's layout in Guangming District and put him in trouble at work, but also buy himself more time and opportunities to pursue personal gain.
