The car drove all the way to the industrial park on the outskirts of Nanwan City.

This is the newest industrial area in the South Bay, where almost all the largest factories are concentrated.

The entrance to the industrial park is full of vehicles, among which fire engines are the most numerous.

The raging fire has been gradually extinguished, but the billowing black smoke has not stopped and can be seen hundreds of meters away.

Longxing Optical Fiber was not very famous here before. The optical fiber transmission equipment it made was only sold to Baodao and Southeast Asian countries.

However, since it received the order from Huaguo Dentsu last year, it has completely flourished. In the past two months, it has received orders from the two giants, Liansu and China Mobile. Longxing Fiber Optic has become another rising star.

The trend of Baodao factory.

From last year to this year, Longxing Fiber Optic has doubled its factory area and hired more than 8,000 workers.

Just when the efforts were in full swing, such a huge blow suddenly came, which really made Zhen Qidong, the boss of Longxing Fiber Optic, want to cry without tears.

The current losses have not yet been fully calculated, but the value of the goods to be shipped this morning exceeds 200 million.

Businessmen in Baodao are very stingy, similar to the Japanese.

Of course, if they weren't stingy, how could they win so many markets with their second-rate technology?

Didn't it mean that by reducing costs to the lowest possible level and then relying on a meager profit of 5%-10%, it won the favor of those European and American companies that wanted to make people work for free, and received a large number of orders?

5%-10% of profits have to be allocated to machine losses, water and electricity, workers' salaries, etc. The profits in the hands of Baodao merchants are generally 3%. The better ones can exceed 5%, and that's it.

.

Otherwise, in the future, Guo Taiming will have more than 2 million workers. Why is he still just the richest man in the island, with only a few billion dollars in property?

The same is true for Zhen Qidong. For this machine worth 200 million yuan, his profit is only about 10 million yuan. If it is burned down, he will have to work in vain for 20 weeks to make it back.

In addition, there are various compensation losses for factories, production lines, dormitories, and employee casualties. The total loss for this trip is at least 500 million, which is a busy schedule for almost a year.

Fortunately, in addition to Huaguo Dentsu's orders that are still very large, recent orders from Huaguo Dentsu and China Mobile have begun to come in. With the current number of orders, it will still be very profitable in the future. All we have to do now is hurry up.

Put an end to the incident and devote all your energy to production. As long as we can keep orders, there is hope for anything.

"boss!"

While he was sitting in the office taking a breath, suddenly a manager hurried in: "Those workers are making trouble, saying that they want you to pay their fellow villagers' medical expenses, funeral expenses, and compensation as soon as possible, otherwise they will

Don’t go to work!”

"Nonsense!" Zhen Qidong threw his cup and said angrily: "When did this happen? Are you still fussing over this? Find out who instigated it, and when this period of time is over, fire him!"

"yes!"

The managers nodded but did not move: "But their request..."

"Let them take their time, I will take care of it! The most important thing for the factory now is to resume production. We cannot delay orders, otherwise they will lose their jobs!" Zhen Qidong said earnestly: "Why don't you understand this? Really?

A bunch of farmers!”

"But no matter what I say, they just won't move. They say they can't see the money, so they don't believe us!" the subordinate said with a grimace.

"snort!"

Zhen Qidong's face was uncertain. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Forget it, let's go to the finance office to withdraw 1 million. Let's calm their hearts first, otherwise it will be troublesome for reporters to come to interview!"

"But I did the math. It will cost at least 20 million!"

"Idiot! Don't you know how to fool them first? If something like this happens, everything costs money. Where can I get 20 million in a moment? Get out! If you can't handle it, don't come back!"

Amidst Zhen Qidong's curses, his men fled in confusion.

It was at this time that Li Xiaochao, Xiao Qi, Zhang Qingqing and others quietly entered the chaotic factory area.

It is said that Shenzhen, Hong Kong and Macao are integrated, and Li Xiaochao's energy in Nanwan is also very great. The police who originally maintained law and order and did not allow any unrelated people to enter or exit, not only let them in, but also had five or six police officers to escort them on the way.

"Please take us to see the burned-out dormitory area." Xiao Qi made such a request.

The police didn't ask any questions, and after going around a few times, they took Xiao Qi to the burned-out dormitory area.

I met many people in the process, including firefighters responsible for putting out fires, police officers responsible for security protection, and many more workers who looked panicked and frightened.

Seeing that it was obvious that they were two houses with different buildings, but the visual distance was only about 5 meters apart, Xiao Qi frowned, "Shouldn't the safe fire distance meet the requirements? If they are so close, something happened in the factory.

, won’t it also affect the dormitory area?”

"It's not just to save costs!" There were also workers standing in a daze next to them. Seeing that they were leaders, they added after hearing the words: "The extra land can open an additional production line, and it can also save land rental costs.

, what’s wrong?”

"Don't talk nonsense!" a policeman shouted quickly.

Xiao Qi looked at him and said, "Since when are people no longer allowed to speak? Is he spreading rumors?"

The policeman quickly lowered his head and stepped aside.

He didn't know Xiao Qi, but the director of the Public Security Bureau personally arranged for them to come in, naming them as "important guests."

Besides, Xiao Qi and Li Xiaochao's bodyguards can be seen as retired soldiers at a glance. People with such arrogance in China cannot be local bosses at all.

Anyone who can be a police officer in Nanwan must have a sharp eye.

"Brother, do you know why this house burned down and the fire was so strong?" Xiao Qi continued to ask the person who spoke.

The worker was just complaining, but when he was asked to speak, he hesitated.

Xiao Qi nodded, and the bodyguard next to him walked over and stuffed a bunch of banknotes into it. A sharp-eyed policeman checked it visually and found that it was at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan.

With so much money, the worker hesitated for a moment and blurted out: "Because those boys were laying wires everywhere without taking measures to prevent leakage, which caused fires. There are many wooden and plastic structures in these dormitories.
