He Pingan knew very well that this meeting was not about discussing Jia Dongxu's accident, but about shifting the blame and fighting for power. Of course, as a weapon in the hands of some people, Jia Dongxu would occasionally be mentioned by everyone.

As for compensation, there will definitely be some, and it won't be too little. After all, he is the first worker to die on the job in a public-private partnership. As the first person to take the plunge, even if the factory knew that Jia Dongxu was fully responsible, it would do its best to provide compensation, which is politically correct to the superiors and lenient to the subordinates.

The party secretary in the middle said that the meeting was about to start, which was like the clarion call of "war". One person said something, and the other one refuted it. He Pingan looked at the performance of the crowd and muttered to the party secretary in the upper seat: the people who were arguing the most were either the subordinates of Director Yang or the direct line of Li Huaide. It would be better to just let Director Yang and Li Huaide talk alone, the "buzzing" noise was giving people a headache.

As if he understood He Ping'an's thoughts, or perhaps he was also annoyed. Party Secretary Wang coughed lightly, tactically took a sip of tea, and looked at Yang and Li beside him, asking them to express their opinions.

As the person in charge of production and technology, Director Yang naturally did not want his subordinates to be punished too severely. He excused the workshop director by saying that Jia Dongxu fell on the machine himself. As for Li Huaide, he naturally tried to make it as serious as possible. First, he said that it would be difficult to explain to the family members. Then, he demanded that the workshop director be severely punished on the grounds that it was the first worker death incident after the public-private partnership, which had a bad impact. The two exchanged sharp words, and it was difficult to tell who was better.

Secretary Wang looked at the two people arguing with each other and made the final decision: he said that this incident was too bad and he would report the matter to the Ministry truthfully in a moment, and everything would remain the same in the meantime. He then raised the issue of compensation for Jia Dongxu.

He Pingan saw this and mourned for Li Huaide for three seconds. Although Secretary Wang seemed impartial, he actually helped Director Yang. No matter what, the person died in the production workshop, and Director Yang could not shirk it anyway. He had already shown a slight decline, but the secretary spoke at this time and interrupted Li Huaide's attack. Now it seems that the mainstream of the country is still development and construction, and Li Huaide has a long way to go.

The party group secretary personally came to the scene, but Li Huaide still insisted on it. He was ignorant! He could only follow Secretary Wang's arrangement and prepare to discuss Jia Dongxu's compensation. Through what happened just now, Secretary Wang has also noticed that the fight between Yang and Li is getting more and more serious. If the two groups are allowed to discuss, it is estimated that there will still be endless quarrels. He plans to directly state his proposal this time and let everyone leave the meeting. However, he plans to ask He Ping'an's opinion first. After all, he and Jia Dongxu are from the same courtyard.

"Director He, I heard that Jia Dongxu is your neighbor. What do you think about the issue of compensation?"

"Secretary Wang, Jia Dongxu is indeed my neighbor, but our Security Department is responsible for protecting the factory and the workers. I cannot overstep the line!" It's okay if you let He Ping'an watch the show, but if you ask him to act, He Ping'an will refuse.

"I think we should still consider it from the perspective of care. Although this incident was caused by the worker himself, it happened at his workstation in the workshop. I suggest that the worker be compensated according to the standard of work-related injuries. Otherwise, how can we explain to the family?"

Director Yang is in charge of production, so he naturally has to fight for the interests of his subordinates. He was shocked to hear Secretary Wang let He Pingan speak. He knew the conflicts between He Pingan and the people in the courtyard, especially the Jia family. Seeing that He Pingan was unwilling to talk more, he quickly took over the topic. What's interesting is that he actually used the excuse that Li Huaide used to attack him.

"Director Yang, I think this is inappropriate. You just said that it was Jia Dongxu who fell on the machine, which led to the accident. If he can still be compensated according to the standard of work-related injuries, then isn't the factory system too frivolous?" Isn't it just like giving someone a taste of their own medicine? Li Huaide said that he would do the same thing.

"As Deputy Director Li said just now, this is the first worker death since the public-private partnership. If we can't make proper arrangements, who will bear the consequences? Let me remind you: Jia Dongxu is the only one working in the Jia family, and his wife is an ordinary housewife. Moreover, Jia Dongxu's father also died in the factory. Two generations of father and son sacrificed their lives for the steel mill, but we are going to let his widow live on the streets. By then... humph!"

Director Yang's words made everyone dare not refute, including Li Huaide. If it was really as Director Yang said, then everyone could survive, which would be considered a great success.

"Director Yang, Jia Dongxu's father did die in the steel mill, but it was a private factory back then, and his father also received compensation. We really can't let the workers down, but we can't do without the system, right? Then what's the point of formulating rules and regulations? Do we not need to abide by the Party Constitution and the law?" Li Huaide was no pushover, and after a brief thought, he raised the banner of the law and gave Director Yang a blow. Human relations or the law?

"Deputy Director Li, we are now discussing the issue of Jia Dongxu's compensation. Please don't make it too serious. We must abide by the rules and regulations as well as the party constitution and laws, but we must learn to be flexible," Director Yang said in a deep voice.

He Pingan was furious when he heard what Director Yang said: There is no one in the entire steel mill who is more flexible than my brother Li! Of course, this is just what he said in his heart, and he will not say it in public. He Pingan is not crazy about gains and losses!

"So many workers are waiting for a result. We can't let them down!" Secretary Wang interrupted Li Huaide again, glanced around, and said righteously.

"Well, I need to state the power of our security department: we have the right to investigate and arrest anyone or anything that disrupts the operation of the factory and threatens the safety of workers. I have no objection to the full compensation proposed by Director Yang. However, I have two questions: Is Jia Dongxu's compensation this time a special case or a normal practice? If it will always be like this in the future, why would we ask our security department to investigate after an accident? We can just pay compensation directly! Second, what if other workers find out that Jia Dongxu has a full compensation and refuse to obey the safety management of our security department in the future?"

He Pingan originally wanted to follow Li Huaide to get some advantage, but he didn't expect Li Huaide to be so useless, and he didn't expect Secretary Wang to start a fight. It was about the power issue of the Security Department, and He Pingan had no choice but to stand up.

"Then I wonder what Director He is going to do?" Secretary Wang looked at He Ping'an and smiled.

"Workers' compensation and pensions are the factory's business. Our security department has no right to interfere!" He Pingan began to write nonsense literature

"In this way, the matter of full pension will only be known to those of us sitting here, and it should not be spread outside. After the heads of each department go back, they should hold a safety meeting for the workers and ask them to obey the safety management of the Security Department!" Secretary Wang saw that Li Huaide was eager to try, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he directly met He Ping'an's request.

"Thank you, Secretary Wang!" He Ping'an got the guarantee and said no more.
