Siheyuan: Taking over the steel mill

When everyone was present, the leader sitting in the main seat copied several documents and distributed them to them, and everyone looked through the report submitted by the Ministry of Industry together.

"You are really capable to be able to sell things to the consul of Camel Country."

"It seems that this child is quite flexible."

After reading the document, everyone was in a good mood.

"Has everyone finished reading the document?"

The top leader asked, and everyone nodded quickly.

“Then the purpose of this meeting is to hear everyone’s views on this.”

"This Su Chen, as the director of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, actually produced gas cylinders with power equivalent to certain weapons, and sold these things to the consul of Camel Country."

"The key point is that the gas cylinders he produced have reached the level of ** products, which is obviously a disguised way of exporting weapons."

"If we allow this pattern to continue, it could very well cause diplomatic problems, so I'm asking you all to come here for a small meeting."

The big leader looked serious. He had studied the report carefully and sent personnel to the Red Star Steel Mill for an on-site investigation.

The situation we have learned so far is consistent with what was reported by the leaders of the Ministry of Industry.

"This Su Chen is quite courageous. The power of the gas canister ** he made cannot be underestimated. It is almost equivalent to the mortar in our army."

A military leader nodded with a smile on his face.

"It would be great if this technology could be used in our ** factory."

"I don't think the matter is complicated, this is Comrade Su Chen's personal behavior.

Now that the market is open to the outside world, as long as he can sell the products, there will be no problem.”

An economics department boss agreed.

"I think this approach is very good. It is this strategy that has brought the Red Star Steel Mill back to life from the brink of bankruptcy. It is indeed a good deed."

Another leader of the economic department also saw the benefits of doing so and echoed the sentiment.

"Indeed, I think we need to observe for a while. After all, we can't see the development prospects of this model yet. This is just the first sales attempt, and the follow-up situation needs further attention."

“If this model really has potential, we should support it.”

The leader looked around and saw that most people were in favor, so he nodded in agreement.

"Ok, deal."

“State-owned factories are facing similar difficulties, with an increasing number of closures.

If we develop in the way Comrade Su Chen is doing, we can revitalize the steel rolling mill, relocate workers, and earn foreign exchange. Other factories can also follow this approach.

We can adopt a non-interventionist approach and give appropriate policy tilt when the outlook is good.”

After the leader's speech, everyone agreed that this plan was appropriate.

"However, I want to investigate it myself to see how this small factory can produce such a product."

A senior military general straightened the collar of his uniform; the glittering stars on his epaulettes were hard to ignore.

“It really needs to be carefully verified.”

The big leader said with a smile.

Others also agreed with this way of handling the matter. After all, it was indeed puzzling that Su Chen, a young man with no background, took over the steel mill and produced such high-risk items.

Information about Su Chen had already been distributed to everyone, but after reading his brief resume, everyone felt that there was some hidden secret.

However, due to the lack of field research evidence, it is impossible to determine whether there are any hidden dangers.

The military leaders volunteered to go and investigate, which was the best choice to resolve everyone's doubts.

"Now that all issues have been properly resolved, the meeting is over."

The big boss waved his hand and did not stay any longer as he had many urgent matters to deal with.

Seeing this, the others also left one after another. They put down their work, gathered here for a meeting, and now they had to return to their posts and continue to be busy.

Su Chen had no idea that a secret meeting was taking place around him. After finishing his meal, he quickly fell into a sweet dream.

The next morning, Su Chen was refreshed after a night's rest and returned to the factory as usual.

However, this day seemed different from previous days.

As soon as he entered the factory, he received a notification from the police and security department.

The guard at the door called Su Chen anxiously and told him that he needed to go to the security office.

There, police officers and security chiefs were awaiting his arrival.

When he arrived, the response he received was not surprising.

"You are the director of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. Your name is Su Chen, right?" A police officer wearing a hat saluted Su Chen and then recounted the detailed investigation of several suspects in the previous period.

"The illegal behavior of our factory director Li Aihua has been investigated and he has been sentenced to three years in prison for his involvement in ** issues. All his illegally obtained property has been confiscated and returned to the factory."

"In addition, we have confirmed that Xu Damao and Liu Haizhong colluded to resell factory property. The law requires them to pay a fine of 10,000 yuan and confiscate their illegal gains, and serve one year in prison."

"The investigation results on He Yuzhu are also clear and straightforward. His behavior did not meet the standards of a serious crime. He only stole food from the cafeteria, so according to the law, he was sentenced to seven days of detention as punishment."

When Su Chen heard the results given by the police, he felt relieved.

Seeing those who made people angry get the corresponding retribution.

Although it is regrettable that Sha Zhu could only be detained for a short time, compared with people like Damao, his behavior was just stealing food, and he was almost a "good citizen".

.

Suchen shook the police officer's hand tightly with joy and thanked them for their efforts.

He said he would present a flag to the police.

Su Chen knew very well that it was against the rules to directly give material gifts, but the police were very happy to accept the symbol of honor - the banner.

The police officer, who had originally had a blank expression on his face, relaxed a lot and smiled gently after hearing that Su Chen was willing to award them a commendation.

"It is our duty to protect the people. This is a fair verdict," Su Chen nodded with a smile, signaling the security captain to lead the police officers away.

Then he told his assistant to report these events on the radio station.

The assistant quickly ran to the radio department to inform these people of their transgressions and the punishments they had received.

Upon hearing the radio broadcast, the employees immediately listened attentively to the content.

When they learned about the trial and sentencing of those people, everyone's emotions immediately became heated.

"I've always felt that there was something wrong with the director, and this time he was finally caught."

"Thanks to such a smart factory manager, otherwise the few cancerous tumors in the factory would still be at large."

"The factory director really didn't wrongly accuse them. They brought this upon themselves. They did something illegal and refused to admit their mistakes."

The workers at the steel mill had long been dissatisfied with them, but after hearing the news on the broadcast, they were in a very good mood and worked with greater energy.

*

After Su Chen asked Zhang Aimin to make the announcement on the radio, he was about to return to his office to look at the design drawings, but was suddenly stopped by a policeman who was about to leave.

"Director Su, you still need to go to the police station to receive the funds that Li Aihua and his gang illegally obtained."

Su Chen then realized that it was not enough to just wait at home, but he had to go to the police station in person.

"Okay, police officer, I'll go with you right away."

Being able to get a sum of money for free was unexpected wealth, so Su Chen was of course willing to cooperate and go to the police station.

Su Chen followed the policeman to the police station.

The police stations of this era looked quite simple, and the people inside wore grass-green police uniforms, which were very different from what Su Chen had seen before, but that unique temperament still remained.

He followed the police into a reception room.

"This is the record of the illegal income of those people in your factory. Please take a look."

After entering the reception room, he was received by a higher-ranking police officer.

Su Chen took a quick look and felt that this person was of a higher official rank, so he did not ask any more questions and directly took the materials and read them carefully.

According to information provided by the police, Director Li and his colleagues' illegal income amounted to more than 200,000 yuan.

This is more valuable than the equipment Su Chen had previously mortgaged.

Su Chen couldn't help but shook his head. It seemed that these people were indeed real **.

At this time, not far from the reception room was the temporary detention area. Xu Damao and several others held on to the railings tightly, staring at where Su Chen was.

After being threatened and scolded, these people confessed all the ugly things they had done, and almost confessed to the time when they broke the glass of their neighbor's house when they were children.

Now they saw Su Chen sitting there looking at documents with a look of despair on his face.

"Why is this guy here? Does that mean we have to give him all the money we paid?"

"I worked hard to get that money. It was not illegal at all."

Liu Haizhong's expression was extremely sad, as if someone had dug a piece of flesh out of his heart.

After Su Chen carefully read through all the materials, the police officer in charge of the handover procedures handed a list to Su Chen.

"Please sign here to confirm that we will transfer the illegal funds of Xu Damao, Li Aimin and Liu Haizhong to the public account of the steel mill. Please check and confirm that the amount is correct."

Su Chen confirmed it again, nodded, and quickly signed his name in the signature area.

Now we just need to wait for Xu Damao and others to pay all the money, and the steel mill will have an extra sum of money.

Su Chen was very happy, while Director Li, Xu Damao and others looked at him in despair.

The money they had worked so hard to obtain was taken back one by one by Su Chen, and it felt as painful as cutting off their own flesh.

However, they did not dare to say anything more at this time. After all, they were now in prison and there were long years behind bars waiting for them in the future.

Su Chen felt very satisfied in his heart. He didn't expect that catching these people and sending them to the police station would bring such a surprise. This made him want to catch all the other parasites in the factory.

Unfortunately, there are only a few parasites as blatant as Xu Damao. Even if Su Chen wanted to catch them, he couldn't find more targets and had to give up.

At this time, Xu Damao and his companions did not grab the bars of the cell, but sat dejectedly on the ground, full of despair about the future.

Not only will all his past illegal gains disappear, but he will also face the situation of having to work hard again in prison to compensate Su Chen.

Whenever they think of this, they even feel that it would be better to just give up their lives.

After Su Chen handed the receipt back to the policeman, he stood up, shook the policeman's hand tightly and thanked him repeatedly.

"I am so grateful to the police comrades! If it weren't for your help in finding out the truth, I wouldn't have known that these parasites had emptied the factory!"

“If there were no such bad apples, our factory would not be facing such great challenges.

I sincerely thank the police officers for their help. This has made me no longer worried about the normal production of the factory."

The police waved in response, a little uncomfortable with Suchen's enthusiasm.

"You're welcome. These are what we should do."

Su Chen said with a smile:

"I must express my gratitude. Please wait a moment."

Then Su Chen ran away quickly.

The banner he entrusted Zhang Aimin to prepare has been sent outside.

Words of thanks alone are obviously not enough to express Su Chen's gratitude.

So he took another one with the golden words "enforce the law for the people and protect the people impartially"

The banner was returned to the bureau to be delivered.

After seeing the banner, the police's expressions became much happier. The police officer who was responsible for going to the factory originally thought that this was just a joke, but after seeing the banner, his expression became even happier.

"If it weren't for the help of the police, it would be impossible to get the compensation back! I am really grateful for your support."

When he presented the banner, the head of the police station said with a smile on his face:

"Serving the people wholeheartedly is what we should do, what we should do!"

For the police, this honor is the best proof of their performance, so everyone in the police station is delighted.

This commendation is also given to all police officers on duty.

The police chief took Su Chen and himself to take a photo.

Once this move is reported in the newspaper section, it will be an opportunity to build a good reputation for the police publicity.

After submitting the banner, Su Chen did not stay in the police station for long.

In fact, ** still had other plans to execute, but one of the things he needed to deal with most right now was to rush to the bank as soon as possible to collect the funds returned by those people.

You know, some of the factory’s equipment is currently being used as collateral for loans.

Then, he went straight to the bank and successfully withdrew 100,000 yuan of company funds with the written evidence provided by the police.

“It’s been a hard work to handle this mortgage loan repayment business.

Also, I'd like to meet with the bank president.

"

He went straight to the bank manager and said.

It was this manager who handled the loan application, so Su Chen naturally went to him to repay the loan this time.

The manager was quite surprised to see that Su Chen had raised the loan amount so quickly.

After all, although Su Chen was the director of the steel rolling mill and mortgaged the equipment in the factory, considering the current not optimistic economic situation, the manager originally thought that he could only take back the equipment in the end. He did not expect that Su Chen could actually repay the loan on time.

"Comrade Su, please sit here for a while. I will go and ask our president to come over."

The manager led Su Chen into a small meeting room next to it, and left in a hurry after saying anything.

At this time, Su Chen also breathed a sigh of relief. While sipping tea, he casually observed the surrounding environment.

He could also use this opportunity to further improve the plan he had made previously.

After all, the steel mill is in urgent need of a considerable sum of money, and now is a great opportunity.

The bank president was puzzled when he learned that the director of the steel mill wanted to meet him.

Not long ago, he heard that a state-owned bank a few blocks away was in contact with the steel mill, but because the other party did a good job of keeping it confidential, he was never able to learn the specific details.

Now, knowing that the director of the famous steel rolling mill was coming to visit in person, the president immediately followed the manager to greet him.

"I wonder what Director Su wants to see me for this time?"

Although he was full of curiosity, the bank president appeared calm on the surface.

The young factory director Su was indeed young as the rumors said, but the bank president did not underestimate him.

"I plan to apply for another loan, this time for 30 million yuan."

After careful consideration, Su Chen believed that the steel mill was now in a position to strive for a larger credit line, so he went straight to the point.

Hearing this, the bank president stood up excitedly and hurriedly invited, "Director Su, please come over here and talk in detail."

The bank president led Su Chen into the VIP lounge, a treatment that ordinary guests rarely enjoy. The last person who had this honor was the richest man from a certain province.

Ever since the richest man left, this VIP lounge has been idle until Su Chen visited today.

However, even though it has been vacant for a long time, it does not appear messy because it is cleaned regularly by a dedicated person.

The president personally poured a cup of tea for Su Chen and only sat down on the seat opposite him after everything was ready.

The reason for such hospitality is not simply out of respect for the guests.

The bank has its own credit indicators, and the president is worried about how to complete the task.

To this day, there are still large gaps in credit indicators.

If the mission is not completed, he may find it difficult to keep his position.

Although outsiders may think that he is very successful, has a high salary and has many customers coming to him for business, in fact the bank president himself is under tremendous pressure.

He had been in trouble many times before because he failed to meet credit targets.
