Rebirth 1994: Starting from laid-off workers
Chapter 7
Having seen through his thoughts, Director Yin looked extremely ugly, but he still spoke bravely.
"How could it be possible? You helped me solve a big problem. It's too late for me to be grateful. I will never do that. I guarantee it with my personality!"
Zhang Jiaqiang burst out laughing, "If you had character and conscience, there would be no cowards in the world!"
"Look, this is your evidence of remittance. The laid-off workers' money was remitted to this account!"
As he spoke, he took out a hospital payment receipt from his pocket and waved it in front of Lao Yin's eyes.
Director Yin stretched out his hand to grab it as if he was struck by lightning.
Zhang Jiaqiang slapped his hand away and said with a sinister smile.
"In order to prepare you to turn your back and deny it, I made five or six copies of the evidence and details and gave them to trustworthy people. Once I have an accident, where do you think these things will appear?"
Director Yin slapped himself hard and scolded me secretly that I should have thought that this guy would be prepared since he came to the meeting alone, and I wanted to do something against him, but there was no way!
Besides, he is terminally ill and is willing to do anything this time. I'd better be more honest and comfort these laid-off workers first, and then find a way to completely solve the hidden dangers after things calm down!
"I swear, I swear on the eighth generation of my ancestors, I will never cheat you. All the conditions will be as you said!"
Zhang Jiaqiang knew that this guy was completely cowarded. Since his goal was achieved, he would let him go temporarily today.
However, we must not treat this kind of scum lightly. After everyone's money has been received, it will not be too late to send him and his accomplices in, so that they can taste the bitter consequences!
The two walked out of the lounge affectionately like brothers.
Zhang Jiaqiang accompanied Director Yin to the high platform and stood behind him without saying a word.
Factory Director Yin was stuck at the moment. What if he couldn't get the money to give to the workers? He was in a dilemma and couldn't open his mouth.
The workers in the audience were looking forward to it, and they were so anxious that sweat appeared on their foreheads.
Several other factory leaders were also anxious and stared at the factory director.
Bang, a loud slap woke everyone up.
The deputy factory director suddenly shouted, "Zhang Jiaqiang, how dare you hit the factory director? The security guards will send him to the police station!"
Everyone in the audience also exclaimed. It was really an eye-opener today. Zhang Jiaqiang dared to beat the factory director in public. He simply didn’t want to live anymore. Is he still that weakling?
However, what surprised everyone even more was that Director Yin covered his face and shouted loudly.
"Don't worry, everyone. Comrade Zhang Jiaqiang didn't do it on purpose. He has cancer in his hand!"
It was the first time that everyone heard that hands could get cancer, and they were all surprised.
The deputy director said, "Ah, doesn't he have a brain tumor?"
Director Yin gritted his teeth and said, "It's been transferred!"
Director Yin knew in his heart that this was a warning from Zhang Jiaqiang. If he didn't announce it, he would never get off the stage. At this moment, he had to drink even the poisonous wine, and he had to pass this test first.
So he announced the compensation plan as agreed upon and signed a written contract with the workers.
As soon as Director Yin finished speaking, all the laid-off workers in the audience cheered.
Although the 2 yuan cannot be transferred to the account at once, 2000 yuan will be paid every month, and it will be paid off with interest after one year. This is a great thing.
After signing a written contract, there was no fear that the factory would regret it, and everyone seemed to feel reassured.
More than 100 laid-off workers all looked gratefully at the high platform.
However, the person they were grateful to was not the factory leader, but Zhang Jiaqiang.
People are not fools, they have a clear conscience. If Zhang Jiaqiang had not stood up for everyone, there is no telling what the outcome would have been this time.
The factory leaders all walked out of the meeting room with gloomy faces.
Zhang Jiaqiang was about to sign the contract and ask for money, but he was surrounded by hundreds of people.
Everyone was talking and talking loudly.
"Brother Qiang, if you hadn't come forward this time, it would be difficult for us to get money!"
"Jia Qiang, I'm sorry for you, brother, I'm not a human being!"
"Don't talk nonsense yet, get out of the way!" A man with gray hair and a wrinkled face separated them angrily.
"Silly, you are not strong enough. Your child is really terminally ill. Why didn't you tell the master earlier?"
This man is Zhang Jiaqiang's master Wang Aiguo. Although he looks very old, he is actually only in his early forties.
The heavy pressure of life made him age prematurely.
Guo Xiaonian squeezed through the crowd, "Jia Qiang, why didn't you even tell me about such a big thing?"
Zhang Jiaqiang dealt with it casually and glanced at the people in front of him. They all showed true feelings, their faces were full of worry, concern and regret.
Zhang Jiaqiang was also a little touched by these kind and simple workers who truly cared about themselves.
He has kept these in mind and will definitely treat these workers well.
At present, the contracted production line needs skilled workers, and the next step of selling lighters also requires manpower, and these honest and responsible workers are just right.
What's more important is that they all know the basics and are the perfect team to start a business.
Thinking of this, Zhang Jiaqiang said, "Don't worry about me, everyone. It's you, what are your plans after being laid off? Are you just waiting to get the compensation and sit on your hands?"
Upon hearing this, most of the people on the [-]th dropped their heads.
Although the compensation is large, it is not enough to last a lifetime. If I don't find a way to survive, I am afraid that I will really have to wait for death.
Wang Aiguo sighed and said, "Everyone in the family, old and young, have to rely on me to support them. How can I be idle? I have to keep running forward with my old bones!"
Guo Xiaonian said, "Your sister-in-law has just given birth to a child. I have an old man and a young man here. How can I not do anything? But for such a short-sighted person, it is not easy to find a job anywhere, hey!"
It's really hard for laid-off workers to get around these days. They don't want to be employed by serious enterprises. Apart from doing odd jobs, they can only earn compensation and run small businesses to make ends meet.
Those who have no burden of life can be said to be okay, but those who are old and young are almost equal to a tragic fate.
While everyone was sighing, a young man suddenly shouted, "Brother Jia Qiang, I think you always have an idea. Now you dare to fight even the factory director. Can you find a way out for the big guy!"
"Yes, Jia Qiang has the ability to play tricks on the factory leaders. There must be a way!"
"Brother Qiang, just give me some support. In the future, if you ask me to go east, I won't go west. If you ask me to beat a dog, I won't chase a chicken!"
Zhang Jiaqiang saw that the heat was almost done, cleared his throat and said loudly.
"You all think so?"
Everyone was shouting, and they were all saying words to show their loyalty and willingness to make progress.
Zhang Jiaqiang nodded and said, "Since everyone thinks highly of me, I will tell the truth. I have contracted the injection molding workshop in the factory to produce lighters. Now we really need some skilled craftsmen. The wages and benefits will remain the same for the time being. When the lighters are on track, Let’s have a distribution according to work. If anyone is interested, please sign up!”
Zhang Jiaqiang glanced at the familiar faces and suddenly raised his voice.
"Everyone must have a goal in life. As long as he is willing to work hard, he will have a chance. If I succeed, I can leave a large fortune to my relatives. Even if I fail, my life will not be in vain!"
Most of the people below were young people, and the fire in their hearts had not yet been extinguished. When they heard these words, the whole house suddenly cheered, and the applause was even more thunderous.
"How could it be possible? You helped me solve a big problem. It's too late for me to be grateful. I will never do that. I guarantee it with my personality!"
Zhang Jiaqiang burst out laughing, "If you had character and conscience, there would be no cowards in the world!"
