Chu Guocai did not directly put pressure on Liu Qingyu or Lanshan, but directly dialed Liu Qingyu's phone number.
"Liu Qingyu, I heard that you are messing around with the water company. How about it? Have you come up with anything now?" Chu Guocai said with a smile.
When he heard that Chu Guocai suddenly called him, Liu Qingyu immediately realized that although tonight's actions were highly confidential, someone had discovered it and had even been exposed. Secretary Chu called him at this time. What is the purpose of the phone call?
Thinking in his mind, Liu Qingyu replied: "Secretary Chu, we in Lanshan City have indeed taken some relatively strong actions. I directly led people to control all four water plants, and have sent people to All the imported water treatment solvents used by Weili Water Company in the four water plants were sealed, and some of them were sent to some large institutions in Yanjing City for testing, and their main leaders were all controlled by us."
Chu Guocai's eyes widened when he heard Liu Qingyu's answer. Even though he was mentally prepared, there was still a look of shock on his face.
This Liu Qingyu is so bold that he dares to take such a bold and radical action at this time. Hasn't he thought about how he would end the matter if the water treatment solvents were not checked and found problems? , at this moment, Chu Guocai was really worried about Liu Qingyu.
However, based on Chu Guocai's understanding of Liu Qingyu, although this boy is more radical in his actions, under normal circumstances, he never fights uncertain battles. This may be related to Liu Qingyu's military career. Liu Qingyu has also brought the courage to make quick decisions on the battlefield, which he has developed through life and death tests for a long time, to the officialdom. Although his behavior may seem a bit too reckless to some people, Chu Guocai Because I knew Liu Qingyu's resume, I was not surprised by this.
If you have no desires, you will be strong; if you care about the people, you will be fearless.
But since Liu Qingyu dares to do this, he must have the back-up to do it.
Thinking of this, Chu Guocai said slowly: "Liu Qingyu, I just received news from the relevant departments, saying that the American Tongzhi Group reported this matter to the embassy, and they asked you Lan Shanshi City immediately released the company's top management and apologized for this matter. Otherwise, they will hold a public press conference and publicly demand an explanation from our Katsiang Province and Lanshan City regarding this matter, and will also invite major media Go to Arashiyama City to report the whole thing, are you mentally prepared for these things?"
Liu Qingyu smiled faintly when he heard this: "Secretary Chu, since they said so, let them do it. I am still worrying about how to invite all the foreign media reporters here. After all, Our Lanshan City is just a small city. It is not easy to invite foreign media reporters to report on us. Since some people invite them to come and promote our Lanshan City for free, then I will not be respectful. The development of our Lanshan City What is needed most now is to raise the profile of the entire city.”
When Chu Guocai heard what Liu Qingyu said, he immediately laughed.
This Liu Qingyu can always bring him surprises. Others are extremely nervous about the threat from the Tongzhi Group. Liu Qingyu is a good boy, but you go against the grain and take this threat seriously. Success is an opportunity.
Chu Guocai smiled and said: "Liu Qingyu, you have to think carefully. Once this kind of thing gets out of control, your position as the mayor of Lanshan City will be in danger, and no one can save you."
Liu Qingyu said with great certainty: "Secretary Chu, you can rest assured. Although I am not 100% sure that there is a problem with the Tongchi Group's business in China, I am 99% sure. I believe that this There is definitely a problem with Tongchi Group’s business in China, especially in Lanshan City.”
Seeing that Liu Qingyu was so sure, Chu Guocai said in a deep voice: "Okay, Liu Qingyu, since you are so sure, then I will let the province not interfere in this matter for the time being, and let you Lanshan City Just let it go and give it a try.”
Liu Qingyu said: "Secretary Chu, please rest assured, I promise to live up to your team's support and expectations for me."
Liu Qingyu is a smart man. From Chu Guocai's words, Liu Qingyu can feel that the province is also under considerable pressure. After all, Tongchi Group is a large multinational water company. They have extensive connections and abundant funds. power and strong political influence. Now, Secretary Chu actually said that Lanshan City should let Lanshan City take action. This is to express 100% support for him. With such a provincial leader as his backing, with such a provincial leader, he can still There is nothing to worry about, just be yourself.
Chu Guocai's efficiency is also quite high. After talking to Liu Qingyu on the phone, he instructed the relevant departments to express their position directly to Tongchi Group. The actions of Lanshan City are under investigation by the province. Once there is an investigation, Further processing measures will be given after the results.
Official words, this time, the Cat Siang Province gave absolutely real official words.
The advantage of official talk is that you clearly know that he is trying to evade and perfunctory you, but you can't do anything about it, because he didn't say it to death, but said that he would deal with it after further investigation results are available.
Then the question arises, how long will the investigation take? One or two days or three or four days, who knows.
When you ask again in a few days, they will tell you that the investigation is ongoing and please continue to wait. So, you have to wait again.
Tongchi Group is a very mature multinational enterprise and has a lot of dealings with China. When I heard this statement from Kat Siang Province, I knew that Kat Siang Province was not going to succumb to their diplomatic pressure.
At this time, the top management of Tongchi Group was angry. Director Ramos had immediately reported the matter to the group's director and executive vice president Smith. After Smith learned the news, he immediately organized a board meeting.
At the board meeting, several group bosses were very angry about the strong approach of Katxiang Province, and they all expressed their intention to severely beat Lanshan City, especially Katsiang Province.
Among them, Johnson, one of the major shareholders, has always been known as a hawk in the United States and is also a councilman of a certain city. After hearing Ramos' report, he slammed the table: "This is unreasonable. It is really unreasonable. This little guy The mayor of Huaxia dared to be so disrespectful to our Tongshi Group. It was like a toast and a fine. Please immediately notify our major media partners such as the Associated Press and CNN and ask them to take vigorous action on this matter immediately. Report, in the report, we must highlight the arrogance and domineering behavior of Lanshan City, disrespect for WTO rules, and disrespect for our legitimate rights and interests. At the same time, we should notify the world's major media to conduct concentrated bombing reports on this matter, and we must do so in a short time. I am hyping up this matter inside, putting pressure on Lanshan City and Jixiang Province, making them put it off, and making them panic all day long. I know very well that Chinese officials are most afraid of the pressure of public opinion. As long as we put pressure on them, If it needs to be big enough, Kat Siang Province will definitely have to compromise.”
Many shareholders and directors also expressed their support for Johnson's speech. For them, the Lanshan City Water Plant cannot afford to lose anything, because they know that once there is a problem with the Lanshan City Water Plant, they will Dozens of water plants in China are likely to face the same problem. By that time, once all cities in China join forces, their Tongchi Group's water business in China will face a complete collapse. For them, Generally speaking, although the profits obtained from the water plant are huge, it is not really the reason why they attach so much importance. What they really value is that through the control of China's tap water resources, on the one hand, they can gradually achieve their goal of monopoly operation. , on the other hand, they can achieve the top-secret plan they jointly formulated with relevant US departments.
The top management of the Tongchi Group quickly unified their attitude, and the relevant departments under the group immediately started operating efficiently.
It was just 7 o'clock the next morning in Lanshan City. China's Internet and some TV stations had already begun to report that Lanshan City had temporarily controlled the operating rights of four water plants and forcibly stopped the water supply, as well as the Weiye Water Company. News that the high-level officials were under overall and temporary control.
Although the domestic media are relatively restrained and fair in reporting, most of the foreign media report according to the position provided by the Tongchi Group. For a while, almost all the pressure is on Within a few hours, everyone was focused on the Lanshan Municipal Party Committee team.
In the meeting room of the Lanshan City Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee, all the members of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee gathered here again.
They had not slept all night, but they did not expect that as soon as morning came, so much unexpected information would come to them one after another, which made many people feel huge pressure.
Liu Qingyu was sitting in the mayor's seat. On the table in front of him, there was the laptop brought from Weiye Water Company and a cameraman who was following and filming the entire laptop's movement. This is to ensure the fairness and impartiality of the entire process, so that foreigners will not find excuses to deny the relevant chain of evidence in the future.
Zhou Junhao looked at Liu Qingyu with a gloomy face and said: "Comrade Liu Qingyu, we have finished the operation, but the result did not unfold as you expected. You have also seen the current situation. Please tell me. What should we do in Lanshan City now? Now, public opinion in almost the entire world is criticizing Lanshan and even our Jixiang Province. I have just received calls from some provincial leaders asking us to Lanshan. Yamashi should think carefully about how to handle this matter."
