Reborn in the red age

Chapter 188: Qingfeng Li is soft-hearted in receiving benefits

Many people came to the scene, including those from the Ministry of Foreign Trade, the Municipal Public Security Bureau, and the superior leadership departments of the assembly plant.

These people knew the current situation of the state-owned factories very well, but they didn't expect that the losses could be so huge, and that they were discovered on the spot.

Seeing the performance of the leaders of the assembly plant, everyone present looked unhappy, especially the leaders of the departments in charge. It was not convenient for them to get angry because the situation was not right, otherwise they would be slapped with a lot of curses.

Now that the matter has happened, we must find a way to solve it. Whether it is the Ministry of Foreign Trade or the competent authorities, they do not want to make the matter a big deal.

After the people from the two units exchanged glances, the leader of the department in charge stepped forward, came to Fang Wanzhen's side, and said with a smile: "General Manager Fang, look, oops, I'm really sorry, today. The thing is that the negligence of our competent department has caused such a big loss to your company. I am really sorry. Our competent department will make every effort to recover these machines and recover all losses for your company."

After glancing at the other party, Fang Wanzhen understood what the other party meant. She just wanted to turn a big deal into a trivial matter.

However, this matter is no longer Fang Wanzhen's decision. The big boss is still watching from behind. According to Li Qingfeng's instructions, this matter must be dealt with seriously and will not be tolerated.

Fang Wanzhen had an expressionless face and said in a businesslike manner: "Chief Chen, there is no need to trouble your unit. Aren't there comrades from the Public Security Bureau here? We can just let our colleagues from the Public Security Bureau handle it."

"No, no, no need to bother the police. Our factory has a security department. We can leave it to the security department to handle it," Section Chief Chen said with a smile and waved his hands.

Fang Wanzhen didn't give any face to Chief Chen who was smiling apologetically, and said bluntly: "What Chief Chen said is wrong. Can we let the subordinates deal with the leader's crimes? Can we handle this matter?" Leave it to the Security Department, maybe it’s just a formality, right?”

"No, no, General Manager Fang, on behalf of the superior unit, I assure you that our Ministry of Foreign Trade will personally send people to follow up this time. There will never be any malpractice for personal gain. All criminals will be dealt with seriously." They are all brother units. , the people from the foreign trade department who had been silent also started to help persuade.

Fang Wanzhen was tired of the persuasion from the two parties and was too lazy to argue with them directly. She waved her hand and said impatiently: "You don't need to persuade me anymore. Since the matter has happened, what our company wants is a fair and just person in law." As a result, if you continue to get involved, I will report it to the board of directors and reconsider the cooperation with mainland China."

After finishing speaking, Fang Wanzhen stopped looking at them, walked directly to the police officers, and reported the case to the police on the spot as a Hong Kong businessman.

A naked threat, Fang Wanzhen made it clear that the matter must be done according to her wishes. If it was not done according to his wishes, the order would be withdrawn and subsequent cooperation would be cancelled.

At this time, the country was short of foreign exchange, and all exports were low-level industrial products. Finally, a high-tech product was obtained, and it still involved foreign trade orders worth tens of millions of dollars. At this time, people from the Ministry of Foreign Trade did not care whether any of the fraternal units Brother units, your people love us to death and cannot affect the orders of our Foreign Trade Department.

He immediately changed the subject and expressed his support for Fang Wanzhen's opinion, asking the public security to intervene to investigate the matter strictly and catch all criminals who should be arrested and sentenced.

In order to continue to retain the order, the Ministry of Foreign Trade told the people from the Public Security Bureau on the spot: "Director Liu, I will report to my superiors when I get back. The bureau must send elite troops to investigate this case. No matter who is involved, as long as they are involved, Anyone who commits theft must be arrested and brought to justice.”

For this reason, the competent authorities also knew that the matter was irreversible, so they could only shut up and leave it to the police to handle it.

The people from the Public Security Bureau were also good at assessing the situation. After seeing that the two parties had reached an agreement, they immediately took action with a wave of their hands and commandeered a conference room. Starting with the chief of the production department, the interrogation began on the spot.

The director and secretary of the assembly plant were of a certain rank. Without conclusive evidence, they would not be treated as criminals.

However, the situation of the two was not much better. They were driven back to their offices and could not leave the factory.

After there were no outsiders around, Fang Wanzhen came to Li Qingfeng and said respectfully: "Director Li, this place is a mess. Do you think we have to wait here for the results to come out?"

"It's not necessary. Let them investigate. This matter also involves other factories. The results of the investigation will not come out in two or three days," Li Qingfeng said calmly.

Hearing that it would take two or three days to get the results, Fang Wanzhen had a look of embarrassment on her face. Now Lemon Technology is in a period of rapid development. The affairs in Xiangjiang are very busy. Many things need to be handled by Fang Wanzhen, the general manager. She has to wait here for three days. It's impossible.

It was originally planned that today was the time to leave, and the plane tickets were all bought. If it hadn't been for this, everyone at Lemon Technology would have already gotten on the plane and left.

Sensing Fang Wanzhen's expression, Li Qingfeng understood the reason after thinking for a moment. After thinking for a while, he said: "The company is very busy and cannot leave you as the general manager. You should go back and only keep one colleague from the legal department. Just keep an eye on it from here.”

"With only one employee here, I'm worried that they will practice favoritism and malpractice." Fang Wanzhen expressed her worries.

Qingfeng Li waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "It's okay, it's the same whether you are here or not. Don't look at the commotion outside, as if you want to eradicate all bad elements, just take a look, don't take it seriously. Go back quickly Well, the company's affairs in Xiangjiang are important, I will handle them here."

Those who can be leaders in this kind of factory must have a profound background. The relationships behind them are complicated. There are many people who know about Qingfeng Li. Tomorrow morning at the latest, someone will come to Qingfeng Li to plead for mercy.

After listening to Qingfeng Li's words, Fang Wanzhen nodded without asking any more questions. She left a company's legal affairs representative to deal with the aftermath, and hurried to the airport with the rest of the people to buy tickets and return to Xiangjiang.

After sending Fang Wanzhen and the others away, Qingfeng Li just returned to school when he saw an acquaintance sitting in his office waiting.

Li Qingfeng knew what the visitor wanted to do, but he still pretended not to know, and joked with a smile: "Hey, why did Deputy Director Yu come to my place? You are a rare visitor."

The person who came was none other than Deputy Director Yu from the Electronic Technology Application Research Institute of the Fourth Ministry of Machinery Industry. The two met before Li Qingfeng returned to China for the first summer vacation. At that time, he was just a team leader. In just two years, he became the deputy director of the institute. After a long time, there really is someone above me who is easy to get promoted.

The two of them have never stopped communicating over the years. After Qingfeng Li returned to China, they would meet up for dinner every now and then, and their relationship has always been good.

"Okay, don't pretend, don't you know why I came to see you? Let's go outside and have a cigarette." There were other people in the office, and it was inconvenient to talk here. Deputy Director Yu smiled. He stood up from the stool, pulled Qingfeng Li and started to walk out.

When living in China, you must abide by domestic rules. Since you have found someone through connections, let's talk about it and see what the other party means. The two of them found a deserted corner outside, each lit a cigarette, and got down to business.

Taking a deep breath of cigarette, Deputy Director Yu went straight to the topic: "Tell me, Teacher Li, what are your thoughts on this matter today? Do you want to go straight to the end, or is it almost done?"

"Look at what you said, what do you mean by what I think? I am a victim. The loss of hundreds of thousands of dollars is not a small amount, and it is not a small amount in the United States," Li Qingfeng said with a smile.

"Okay, let's stop hiding each other. The director of the assembly factory is the son of my father's old subordinate. He is still in the mechanical department. He knows about our relationship and came to me specifically to help intercede. I want you to show your favor. As long as I can extract his son, I can grant you a piece of land in the special zone to build a factory."

Deputy Director Yu finally explained the other party's background clearly, and also explained the relationship and conditions between the two parties.

The background of the factory director can indeed be said to be profound. His old subordinates are estimated to be more than 60 this year. They are still in the ministry. The deputy director Yu can be found here, which shows that the level is not low.

After listening to the conditions given by the other party, Qingfeng Li only felt that he was deceiving a fool. Even though he had a profound background, Qingfeng Li was not very polite: "Awarding a piece of land in the special zone? Is he fooling a child? He has foreign exchange in his hand, and he also has With the qualifications of Xiangjiang Company, you can directly go to the SAR government to get the land, and you still want to use him as a favor?"

"I haven't finished talking yet. This land doesn't cost a penny, and we can build it for you including the factory area."

The other party seemed to be somewhat sincere when he said this. Although land in the Special Economic Zone is not expensive now, building a factory still costs a lot of money.

Qingfeng Li thought about it for a while and then said tentatively: "I can use this factory for anything?"

"Yes, you can do whatever you want."

"What if I want to build my own assembly factory? Is that okay?"

"Can"

Li Qingfeng nodded clearly, but he felt a little disdainful in his heart. This country had been tricked by them.

After thinking for a while, Qingfeng Li nodded and agreed to the other party's proposal. He didn't take advantage of it, and he didn't want to offend people so much. It was good to get a piece of land for free. Even if the land in the special zone was worth nothing, If you do it, it will be worth a lot of money in a few years.

In order to avoid any problems in the future, Li Qingfeng only wanted the land and did not let them build a factory.

After reaching an agreement with Deputy Director Yu, the two of them had dinner together at a self-employed restaurant outside in the evening and talked about the situation of independent computer research and development in China.

I learned from him that the higher authorities now attach great importance to the computer industry, and have approved a lot of foreign exchange for computer-related supporting factories to carry out localization of hardware research and development.

Especially in terms of displays, we are already negotiating with companies from Japan to introduce Japan's advanced display production lines into the country. By then, not only will the output be greatly improved, but also color displays will be produced to meet the needs of Lemon Technology. Procurement requirements.

After drinking for three rounds, Li Qingfeng asked tentatively: "Old Yu, what do you think of the research on computer microprocessors? Are you ready to invest money in it?"

"No, the domestic production conditions for microprocessors are immature, and foreign countries are still blocking our high-tech efforts. For the time being, there are no plans to invest in this," Deputy Director Yu shook his head and said regretfully.

Qingfeng Li nodded and did not continue talking about this topic. What Lao Yu said was the truth. There is no soil to enter the field of microprocessors now, so he should do it himself first.

The two of them chatted until the hotel owner kicked him out in the evening, and then left drunkenly. Looking at the back of Lao Yu swaying away on his bicycle, Li Qingfeng shook his head gently, and then walked towards the school.

The next morning, more acquaintances came to Qingfeng Li one after another. In addition to the school leaders, even his former classmates came looking for him.

After Qingfeng Li's selection, all those who were willing to make compensation agreed to let go. Those who wanted to let Qingfeng Li let go based on friendship were all kicked out by Qingfeng Li.

After all this hard work, Qingfeng Li gained a lot of benefits, and even his position in the school was raised to a higher level. In addition to being a graduate student and lecturer, Qingfeng Li also became a section chief, regardless of his level. High, that can be regarded as reaching the management level in school.

This incident made Li Qingfeng sigh with emotion. He donated hundreds of thousands of foreign exchange to the school, not even a cent, only a few banners and commendations. After catching a wave of corruption, not only did he get a few pieces of land, but he was even promoted. How do you say this?

Two days later, the Public Security Bureau notified the legal affairs team left behind to close the case, and arrested about thirty people at once. They told Lemon Technology's legal affairs department that only thirty of them had stolen the more than eighty machines, and all the losses had been recovered.

The legal officer who had already been entrusted by Qingfeng Li did not ask any questions, and neatly signed the case closing form. According to Qingfeng Li's instructions, he spent money to find someone to make a banner and sent it over, with eight big characters written on it. "Upright and upright, law enforcement is as strong as a mountain"

After the incident here ended, the leadership of the computer assembly plant changed. The original director and secretary were transferred to other places.

On the day the incident ended, Li Qingfeng asked Wang Weimin to call his partner Wu Meilan over, and the three of them had a meal together.

Not to mention, despite Wang Weimin's poor appearance, this person is really smart, speaks well, and is very well-organized. With Wang Weimin, this guy is blind.

After briefly instructing Wu Meilan to pay attention, he asked the legal officer who had not yet left to draw up an employment contract on the spot and apply for Wu Meilan's induction. From then on, the girl officially became an employee of a Hong Kong company.

Afterwards, in the name of Lemon Technology, an official letter was sent to the assembly factory. Following the formal process, Wu Meilan was assigned to work as a supervisor in the name of a clerk, with a monthly salary of 3,000 Hong Kong dollars.
