Chapter 470 The Mystery of Scrapped Equipment

Hearing that Guo Guibao brazenly sold out the equipment of the forging press, everyone in the room was impatient.In the eyes of people like Hanhua, Hun Forging Press is already the cabbage in their basket, how can wild boars be tolerated.Lin Zhenhua immediately announced the end of the meeting. Everyone quickly went back to the room and changed into thick clothes, then rushed downstairs to the hotel.

For convenience, Hanhua specially bought two cars in Hunbei, one is a Santana and the other is a 15-seater Jinbei Sea Lion van.After getting the news, the driver had already driven the two cars out of the parking lot, and everyone jumped into the car and headed towards the direction of the forging press.

Lin Zhenhua and He Fei accompanied Li Genyuan's grandfather and grandson in Santa's car. Taking advantage of the time on the road, Li Genyuan introduced to Lin Zhenhua exactly what happened in the factory.

It turned out that about Hanhua's acquisition of Hun Forging Press, rumors had already spread in the factory.Regarding this incident, the workers in the factory have different attitudes, which can be roughly divided into three types.

The first category is those who have strong resistance. How can a state-owned enterprise employee who feels that he is a decent person go to work for a private capitalist?These workers scolded the street in private, saying that they had worked for the country all their lives, and then they were kicked out.There are also people who are connecting with each other and plan to go to the city to sue and oppose the acquisition of the factory.

The second category is the opposite. They feel that instead of going bad like this, it is better to sell the factory and find another employer with capital and ability. Maybe the wages and benefits will be guaranteed.For these workers, it's all about doing things anyway, who are they doing for?Most of those who hold this attitude are young workers, especially those who have classmates and friends working in private or foreign companies in the south, and they do not have too many psychological obstacles to the restructuring of the company.

More workers belong to the third category. In the words of later generations, they are the soy sauce category.The situation in Hunbei City in the past few years has gradually made most workers numb.They originally thought that they had an iron rice bowl, guaranteed income from droughts and floods, and could live a life without any worries. Who knew that the enterprise collapsed as soon as it said it would collapse, until the government could not rescue it.Wages have been cut in half, welfare benefits have been stopped, and even heating in winter cannot be guaranteed, which makes these workers feel deeply helpless.They began to doubt their abilities, and then chose to give up on themselves. They were insensitive to everything and let fate manipulate them at will.

A few days ago, rumors began to spread in the factory that Hanhua Heavy Industry and Hunbei City Economic Commission were discussing the acquisition plan of Hun Forging Press.Well-informed sources said that the reason why Hanhua Heavy Industry intends to acquire Hunbei Metal Forging Press is that it has taken a fancy to the 1500 mu of land owned by Hunhua Heavy Industry. Hanhua Heavy Industry intends to pay 3000 million yuan to the Hunbei City Economic Commission, and the 3000 million yuan will be used to purchase the 1500 acres. For land, the price per mu of land is exactly 2 yuan.

Hearing this rumor, Lin Zhenhua really wanted to cry, and the misunderstanding involved was really too big.However, he also knew that someone deliberately created this misunderstanding in order to achieve some ulterior motives.The negotiations between Hanhua Heavy Industry and Hunbei City Economic Commission are classified to a certain degree, and the details can be leaked, which shows that someone in the government and people in the factory are secretly negotiating the song.

Li Genyuan went on to introduce that in Hunbei, developers in the south had previously acquired corporate land for development, so the above statement was believed by some workers.Guo Guibao took the opportunity to let the workers know through his confidantes that once the forging press is acquired, the workers will be laid off permanently, some young and beautiful female workers may be absorbed into real estate projects as waiters, and the boys can only be Handymen, and the rest just bought out their seniority and found their own way out.

This news was almost a bolt from the blue for the workers.Even the optimists were left speechless.If the factory continues its original business after being acquired, then everyone's life will not be affected negatively.But if, as Guo Guibao's confidants said, the factory was taken down and built as commercial housing, everyone would really become jobless.

Taking advantage of this chaotic time, Guo Guibao recruited the bosses of several private companies to discuss selling some of the relatively new equipment for forging.Guo Guibao revealed that these equipment can be sold for about three million yuan, which can give thousands of yuan to each worker in the whole factory.He also said that this was the last benefit he offered to the workers as the factory manager.

"This Guo Guibao is quite caring." Lin Zhenhua commented in a mocking tone.

Li Genyuan poohed bitterly, and cursed: "He is a bastard. The workers in the whole factory don't know that he is greedy. How could he benefit the workers? When the factory was in the hands of Lao Zhen in the past, although sometimes There is also a little loss, but the old Zhen works aboveboard, thinking about how to do a good job of the factory. After Guo Guibao came to power, he used his own confidantes. They are good at making money, and they have done countless things to harm the factory. .”

"Old Zhen is the old factory director of Hun Forging Press. His name is Zhen Guoqiang. He has been retired for several years." He Fei explained to Lin Zhenhua from the side. long.

Lin Zhenhua nodded, indicating that he knew. He had also heard about the matter of the old director Zhen.Judging from the reflections of the masses, this person is a bit like Zhu Tiejun of Hanhua, but he is not as lucky as Zhu Tiejun to meet Lin Zhenhua who traveled through time, so in the end he has nothing to achieve, and when he reaches the age, he leaves depressed jobs.

The matter of Zhen Guoqiang is not the focus of Lin Zhenhua's consideration now, he is more concerned about Guo Guibao's matter.He asked Li Genyuan: "Master Li, you just said that Guo Guibao only cares about making money for himself, but this time, why is he thinking about selling equipment to give benefits to the workers?"

Li Genyuan said: "Do you think he really wants to give benefits to the workers? The equipment he wants to sell was bought by Lao Zhen when he was in office. When buying it here, it cost tens of millions. Even if it is a bit old now, it is worth at least tens of millions, right? He said it was only sold for more than 300 million. Think about it, what is the difference in the money? went?"

The equipment with an original value of tens of millions is claimed to be sold for several million. The price difference between them is an astronomical figure.Lin Zhenhua figured out Guo Guibao's trick all of a sudden. He sold the equipment in the name of benefiting the employees and gave a small part of the money to the employees. This was equivalent to kidnapping everyone.In the future, if the competent department pursues this matter, he can say that he is thinking of the employees. Even if there is something wrong, at least the motive is correct, right?Things in China are like this, no matter how big a mistake is, as long as you claim that your motives are good, you can often get away with it.

Lin Zhenhua's face became serious: "Master Li, you mean that Guo Guibao sold the equipment in the factory at a low price to seek personal gain from it, are you sure?"

This kind of talk is not something that can be said casually. If you say something without any basis, it is okay for people to sue you for defamation.But Li Genyuan is not a timid person. It is about the future of the factory, so he is fearless.

"Manager Lin, with my more than 40 years of Party membership, I dare to guarantee that Guo Guibao definitely sold the equipment in the factory at a low price. If these equipment cannot be sold for 1000 million, I am willing to take any responsibility." Li Genyuan said, patting his chest.

Lin Zhenhua said: "Master Li, I definitely believe in your character. It's just that I don't understand one thing. If Guo Guibao does this, isn't he afraid of breaking the law? It's obviously a piece of equipment worth tens of millions. Selling it for a few million, no matter what, you can’t justify it, right?”

Li Genyuan said: "He has a way. I heard that in the past few days, he has found a group of workshop directors, engineers, etc., who are all from his circle, and have appraised these equipment. On the account All of them have been converted into scrap equipment. Of course, the selling price of this scrap equipment will be lower, so who can say anything?"

"So, are these devices scrapped?" He Fei asked.You must know that it is not easy to change the equipment into scrap in the factory, and the necessary procedures must be required.To scrap a piece of equipment, it is necessary to sign and confirm it with the signatures of personnel in all links. If it is finally found out that the equipment has not been scrapped, all the signatories will be responsible.

Speaking of this, Li Genyuan was so angry that his lips trembled. He said: "What can't these gray grandchildren do? It's an imported precision grinding machine, and he dares to let people directly short-circuit the motor. , sizzled, burned, okay, isn’t this a scrapped equipment? This scrapped is scrapped, and you can find someone later, and it can be repaired for a few hundred dollars. However, scrapped equipment and good equipment, the price Can it be the same? Inside and out, a difference of 10 yuan is not too much."

"Fuck, this guy is f*cking crazy!" Lin Zhenhua was stunned.It's not that he hasn't seen corruption before, but it's the first time he's seen something so perverted.As an industrialist, Lin Zhenhua has a near-sacred respect for equipment. He was outraged when he heard that someone deliberately broke the equipment in order to earn a difference.

"Master Li, what step have they achieved now?" Lin Zhenhua asked.

Li Genyuan said: "They have made all the arrangements. I got a letter. I heard that they will come to the car to pull these equipments tonight. They want to take advantage of the dark and no one will see them, so that no one can find out what's going on." He's here. He's the factory manager, and all the formalities have been completed, and none of my workers can stop him. After thinking about it, I think you should have something to do, so why don't you run over and report to you?"

"Did they start shipping equipment when you came out?"

"The transportation has already started, but Chen Qing, who burns the boiler, and the kid from the old Zhen's family have already led a group of people to stop them at the factory gate. We have to hurry, I'm afraid they won't be able to stop them for a while. "

"A boy from the old Zhen's family?" Lin Zhenhua asked in surprise.

"That's right, it's the youngest son of Director Zhen's family, what's his name..." Li Genyuan couldn't remember for a while.

On the other hand, Xiao Li, who was sitting next to him, was a little more familiar, and answered for his grandfather: "His name is Donnie Yen, and I used to call him Brother Fei."
