The big gold necklace, Hu Yaomei, and the strong man also stood up and blocked Zhang Yunqing's way.
Hu Yaomei said: "Mr. Zhang, so many workers are still gathered here, waiting for us worker representatives to communicate with you.
If you leave before there is a result that both parties agree on, it will definitely not work.
We also couldn’t explain it clearly to the workers.
I can also understand that you can't make the decision on your own, but I still can't agree with you leaving now.
To put it mildly, if you run away, who will we go to discuss this matter?
Over the years, it has been difficult for us to collect wages from our workers every year.
In a situation like yours, too many times people run away and never come back, leaving us workers here in the cold."
Zhang Yunqing replied: "Okay. I'll call them."
The strong man said: "You can call me as much as you want, but you can't leave."
Zhang Yunqing ignored these unreasonable worker representatives, picked up the mobile phone on the table, found Zhao Manfu's phone number in the phone address book, dialed it and said: "Boss, I am now in the office of the Ministry of Commerce.
There are roughly a hundred workers gathered around my office and around it."
"What are you bragging about?"
"How big is your office? How can it possibly accommodate hundreds of workers? Are all the workers here miniaturized?"
"No, he is a normal worker.
The office was already packed with dozens of people, and it felt like it was packed.
I said I wanted to come to you to report the situation, but there are four worker representatives, and only four of them disagreed, fearing that I would run away."
"If I don't let you come out, just say it on the phone."
"OK.
They have now elected four workers' representatives.
One is a worker from Xiahouyue, whose salary is 200,000 yuan short.
One is an idle steel structure worker, whose salary is 50,000 yuan short.
One is the own greening workers, Zheng Hui’s workers, and they are shortchanged by 500,000 yuan.
These three workers' representatives also made a request that our Western Construction Company stop paying wages to these contractors.
Demand that wages be paid directly to every worker."
"Payment is easy to solve, but paying every worker is more difficult."
"Yes.
There is also a worker who has been with Bian Zhenjia in the garden construction team for a long time, and their salary is 900,000 yuan short. They are just here to collect it, and there is no requirement that it must be paid to every worker's salary card."
"Yeah, I got it."
"Boss, what should I do now? How should I reply to the workers' representatives about this payment?"
"Please wait a moment, I'll contact the company's leadership.
Then I will arrange for Mr. Zhou Wencheng to handle this matter with you."
"Okay, leader, we are waiting for your news."
Zhao Manfu hung up Zhang Yunqing's call, picked up the phone, looked up the phone number of Song Zhiyuan, President of the Fifth Business Unit in the phone address book, dialed it, and asked carefully: "Mr. Song, are you free now?
The Nanshan project encountered some difficult things."
Song Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Mr. Zhao, which thing on the construction site is not difficult?
Tell me, is there anything you need me to do?"
Zhao Manfu replied: "A hundred workers came to the Nanshan project and surrounded the project.
They put forward a salary demand of 1.65 million yuan, and said that if they don’t receive the salary, they will not leave.”
Song Zhiyuan smiled and said: "Mr. Zhao, neither of us have only been doing engineering for a year or two, we have been doing it for decades.
What battles have you not seen?
If they come to scare us like this and we give money immediately, then won’t they want to scare us every day in the future?”
Zhao Manfu replied helplessly: "Mr. Song, it is certain that we owe them wages. We can check clearly whether we owe more or less.
I feel that in today’s situation, even if it is impossible to pay everything, if you don’t pay a penny, you will definitely not be able to get over this hurdle.”
Song Zhiyuan replied on the phone: "Okay, I understand, I'll ask the finance department for emergency funds.
But the quota is certainly not large. You must find a way to solve the biggest problem with the smallest amount of money at the project department site."
Zhao Manfu replied: "Okay, Mr. Song, I understand. I will arrange it."
After Zhao Manfu waited for Song Zhiyuan to end the phone call, he put down the phone and rubbed his face several times with both hands.
Then he said to Zhou Wencheng who was sitting on the coffee table: "Mr. Zhou, I just called Mr. Song Zhiyuan, the president of the business unit. You heard it, right?"
Zhou Wencheng replied: "I heard it, but what I can't figure out is that our project has always had positive cash flow. Why are the workers in our project department getting into trouble and why can't we open a green payment channel for our project department?
"
Zhao Manfu comforted him: "Mr. Zhou, have you ever been your own boss before?"
Zhou Wencheng replied: "I have only worked as a project manager, and I have never been my own boss."
Zhao Manfu replied: "I have been a boss for many years.
I can understand the current situation of the company.
It does not mean that if our Nanshan project has positive cash flow, the company will definitely have the money to pay for the Nanshan project.
It was the same thing when I was working in the family business.
Which projects have received funds, but they don’t have the financial strength to leave the money to that project until they need the money.
Rather, as long as the money is returned to the company's account, it can be used wherever the money is needed urgently.
Therefore, we are now migrant workers and professional managers, so we just have to stand up for ourselves.
In this situation, we can only use our ingenuity and do our best to successfully resolve these emergencies in the project department.
Those workers who come to make trouble and ask for money must use coercion and inducement to persuade some and persuade others to quit.
For those people who really cannot be removed, we will definitely not use them again in the future, so we will use money to settle the relationship with them.
But the less money, the better. You must remember this.
Just now, Zhang Yunqing called me and said he wanted to come and report the situation to me in person, but the workers wouldn't let him go.
We could only have simple communication on the phone.
He is also an impatient person, but he is not evil-minded, and forget about the quarrels he made.
He took the two girls from the Ministry of Commerce to the office of the Ministry of Commerce and had been holding on for a long time.
It's time for you to show up and face the master workers together with him.
It's easy to talk and discuss.
Also call the bosses of the labor teams involved to come to the venue and face the workers together, and don't let them hide behind.
Some workers were obviously ordered to come here.
Otherwise, why would they be so accurate? No one would block it, and they would go directly to the business department in charge of payment.
You must know that they are not familiar with each other, so they should normally contact you as the project manager."
