Lin'an Pioneer Furniture Factory!
Early in the morning, there were many vehicles jammed in front of the factory.
These vehicles are all large trucks, divided into two rows: left and right.
The fleet on the left has a larger number, some are pulling wood, and others are pulling iron buckets of various colors. They look like they are paint or glue, which are important raw materials for the production of furniture.
The trucks on the right are pulling finished furniture, and each truck is fully loaded. This shows that the sales volume of this place is still good.
But these are not the main point. The main point is that the existence of these cars, coupled with the fact that the road is not very wide and the workers entering and leaving the unit directly cause the road here to be particularly crowded.
Seeing such road conditions, Li Yi couldn't help but sigh and frowned.
According to the files he saw from the city bureau, the reason why the fire had such serious consequences had something to do with the road conditions here.
After the fire broke out, the employees in the factory put out the fire to save themselves and called the firefighting hotline. However, when the fire truck arrived at the factory, the door was tightly blocked.
Although everyone worked together to clear the traffic, it was already half an hour later when the fire truck drove into the factory.
At this time, the fire had ignited everything that could be ignited on the entire first floor. They had missed the best opportunity to put out the fire, which eventually caused the fire to completely get out of control.
When he was reading the file, Li Yi was still criticizing the firefighters responsible for putting out the fire. The car had already arrived at the door. It wasted so long and missed a great opportunity to put out the fire and save people.
But seeing the crowded situation and the car-to-car situation in front of him, Li Yi also understood the helplessness of the firefighters at that time.
After driving slowly and waiting, Li Yi and others finally arrived at the gate of Lin'an Furniture Factory at half past eight.
Since their car was not registered at the factory, they were stopped directly by the security personnel at the door.
After the car was stopped, a middle-aged man in his forties came over.
He first looked at the people in the car and found that no one was wearing uniforms, and then asked: "Who are you and why are you here in our factory?"
Li Yi immediately said: "Comrade, we are representatives of Xingchen Investment Company. We are here to place an order for a batch of office furniture from your factory. Please report it to the leaders of the factory!"
When the middle-aged security guard heard this, he did not dare to neglect, and immediately said: "Comrade, please drive the car in first, I will call the leader right away!"
The security guard is also aware of the situation in the factory. The factory's orders have dropped sharply in the past two years. Although it can still be maintained, it is no longer what it used to be.
During this period, even the factory director and several deputy factory directors had to go out in person to run business and grab orders. It was not easy for customers to come to the door. They couldn't push the God of Wealth outside!
After the car drove into the furniture factory, Zhang Ziqiang asked unexpectedly: "Brother Yi, do we really want to buy furniture? If so, I suggest..."
Before he finished speaking, Li Yi shook his head and said, "No, I actually saw this factory right!"
"You want to buy a factory?"
"I have this idea!"
The reason why I didn't express my thoughts to the security guard was because I was afraid of being beaten.
After all, these factories, large and small, are all owned by the state. When workers work in the factory, they are the masters of their own affairs, and their status is different.
You, a "capitalist", come here to buy a factory and treat us workers as slaves for you to work and exploit. Have you ever considered our feelings?
"Brother Yi, if you want to buy this factory, you should go to the city government. These people in the factory can't make the decision!" Zhou Wen said.
"I'm here today to take a look at the situation of this factory. As for whether to apply to the city for acquisition, I have to wait until I understand the situation!" Li Yi said.
"So this is ah..."
Just as he was talking, he saw a group of people wearing cadre uniforms appearing directly in front, moving towards this side at an extremely fast speed.
After seeing these people, Li Yi immediately said: "The real owner is here, let's get out of the car too!"
After saying that, he opened the car door first and got out!
Zhang Ziqiang and Zhou Wen also followed, while Yang Zhiwen and Xiao Wu continued to stay in the car.
Soon those people who looked like leaders came to Li Yi and others. The leader, a middle-aged man in his fifties, immediately said enthusiastically: "Comrade, do you want to buy furniture?"
Li Yi immediately stepped forward and said, "It's me. Are you from a furniture factory?"
"My name is Xu Feng, the director of Pioneer Furniture Factory. Comrade, which unit do you belong to?"
"Hello, Director Xu, my name is Li Yi. I am the head of Xingchen Investment Company. I am mainly responsible for developing business in the Jiangnan region!" Li Yi said half-truthfully.
"Xingchen Company...is that Hong Kong-owned branch in Beijing?" Director Xu said in surprise.
"Hey, Director Xu knows about our company?"
"I've seen reports about you on TV and in newspapers, but I didn't expect to do business with you so quickly!"
Then Director Xu said again: "Look, I just said it in a patronizing way. Let's go into the factory office and talk!"
"good!"
Afterwards, several people, surrounded by Director Xu and others, walked towards the Pioneer Furniture Factory.
When I walked into the factory, I discovered that the entire factory was not very big. Apart from a three-story office building, the rest consisted of only two production workshops and a comprehensive building with warehouses and dormitories.
Arriving at the small conference room in the factory, after a brief exchange of greetings, Li Yi got straight to the point: "Director Xu, our time is precious, so I'll just tell you my purpose of coming here this time!"
"Please say!"
"Our company is going to build a branch and a large convention and exhibition center in Lin'an, and we need a lot of furniture and display cabinets. I came to your factory just to inspect whether you have the ability to accept this order!" Li Yi said.
Although these words were deliberately told by Li Yi to Director Xu and others, it is true that Xingchen Company will set up a branch and build a convention and exhibition center in Lin'an!
Director Xu heard this and said excitedly: "I am very grateful to Comrade Li Yi for giving us this opportunity at Pioneer Furniture Factory. How can we cooperate with you? Please tell me directly?"
"First of all, I would like to know the basic situation of your factory, okay?" Li Yi said.
"Can!"
Then Director Xu said directly: "Our Pioneer Furniture Factory was established in 1962 and has a history of 20 years. Currently, there are 587 workers in the factory, two large production workshops, one comprehensive building and one office building. The annual production ..."
After Director Xu briefly explained the situation in the factory, Li Yi said again: "Just saying this is not intuitive. Can Director Xu take us around the factory?"
"Okay... okay, please come with me!"
Afterwards, a group of people walked out of the conference room, and under the leadership of Director Xu and others, prepared to go to other places in the factory.
Originally, Factory Director Xu and others were planning to take Li Yi and the others to the two production workshops, after all, that was the place that best reflected the strength of their factory.
However, after coming down from the office building, Li Yi pointed to the complex building not far away and said that he wanted to go there first.
Director Xu stated that it was the factory's warehouse and staff dormitory, and there was nothing interesting to see there, but Li Yi insisted on seeing it first, and said he wanted to see the quality of the factory's finished products.
Seeing Li Yi's persistence, Director Xu and others could not say anything more and could only lead them to the complex.
In fact, what Director Xu didn't know was that the reason why Li Yi came here first was mainly because this complex was where a fire broke out a few days later, and more than a hundred people died here.
Therefore, Li Yi must first see the situation here and whether he needs to invest in buying this factory.
However, when Li Yi followed Director Xu and others to this complex building, he was stunned when he saw the situation in front of him...
