Chapter 780 Joint Meeting 1

At nine o'clock in the morning, in the conference room of the Security Department training base, the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill Secretary Chang Changzheng, Director Liu Changhe, Deputy Director Li Huaide, Deputy Director Xue Yongheng, and Labor Union Chairman Xue Yingwu sat at the conference table with somewhat nervous expressions; sitting opposite them were an unfamiliar middle-aged man and the Security Department's Director Qin Ming, Deputy Director Xiong Qingshan, Deputy Director Zhang Shangwu, Deputy Director Guan Dajiang, and Deputy Director Wang Shengli.

Minister Gongyebu Wang and Zhengwuyuan Special Advisor Lin Yu sat side by side in the middle of the conference table, while Assistant Sun Yong and two other men in their thirties sat at the desk next to them and were responsible for taking minutes of the meeting.

Although there were so many people sitting in the conference room at this time, no one made a sound, and even the sound of the flames burning in the furnace could be clearly heard.

Lin Yu whispered to Minister Wang first, then said loudly: "Before the meeting officially begins, let me introduce everyone." Then he pointed to the middle-aged man sitting above Qin Ming and said: "This is Director Zhai Yonghui from the relevant department. Originally, Deputy Minister Yan of the relevant department was also going to come in person, but he had some urgent matters to deal with, so he specially asked Director Zhai to attend this meeting on behalf of the relevant department."

Director Zhai Yonghui did not say anything, but just nodded slightly to everyone present, and then continued to write quickly in the notebook in front of him.

Lin Yu continued, "Yesterday morning, Vice Minister Yan personally came to the Security Department training base and brought an important task. There are a number of confidential parts for the national key project that need to be rushed. After careful consideration by the higher authorities, in addition to the most complex core parts being handed over to the military factory for processing, the other confidential parts will be processed by four to five factories with processing capabilities near the capital."

At this point, Lin Yu looked at several leaders of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill and said in a serious tone: "It is a great honor that the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill was selected by the superior department. In order to avoid leaks, at the request of relevant departments, our security department conducted a surprise inspection before leaving get off work yesterday evening in order to prevent any accidents. Unfortunately, the results of the surprise inspection were shocking. Director Qin, you will now report the results of the surprise inspection to everyone present."

Qin Ming stood up and solemnly agreed, then said loudly: "Dear leaders, yesterday evening our Security Department was ordered to conduct a surprise inspection of the workers of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill who were off work, and arrested 179 workers on the spot for carrying various scrap parts, steel and copper blocks. Our Security Department immediately organized personnel to interrogate them overnight, and based on the confessions of these workers, we immediately sent people to search the three scrap purchasing stations of the supply and marketing cooperatives that specialize in purchasing stolen goods, and arrested other fish that slipped through the net reported by the arrested workers overnight. Until three o'clock in the morning today, our Security Department arrested another 65 workers suspected of stealing materials from the steel rolling mill, and after overnight interrogation, all the arrested workers have explained their illegal and criminal acts clearly. According to the confessions of these workers, preliminary statistics show that 65 people are involved. The amount of the case exceeded more than 30,000 yuan. The most serious case was that only one person stole scrap parts, copper blocks, and steel from the steel mill and obtained a total of more than 1,500 yuan in stolen money. Most of these workers took the approach of hiding scrap parts on their bodies and sneaking out of the factory like ants moving houses. Some stuffed things in special belts, and some hid things in backpacks and lunch boxes. After interrogation, it was found that a considerable number of these workers were those who were fined and demoted last time. These people did not learn from the experience of the steel mill’s handling of their theft of materials, but instead intensified their theft and continued to steal on a large scale. Here, as the director of the Security Department responsible for daily work, I have an unshirkable responsibility for not being able to promptly discover and seize these illegal and criminal workers who stole materials from the steel mill, and I am willing to accept the organization’s punishment. ”

At this point, Qin Ming looked at the main leaders of the Red Star Steel Mill sitting across the conference table with a cold look in his eyes, and said sarcastically: "After the large-scale surprise inspection last fall, our security department has successively arrested 25 workers who smuggled various materials from the steel mill. However, every time they caught someone, the respective workshop directors, production department directors, and deputy directors would immediately come forward to plead for these arrested workers or even act as guarantors. There were even two times when Secretary Chang and Director Liu of the steel mill personally called me and asked me to release the people. The reason was basically that it could not affect the production of the factory, and they also promised to strictly criticize and educate these workers to ensure that similar mistakes would not be made in the future. I In order not to affect the daily production of the steel mill, Secretary Lin made the decision without asking for permission and sent the arrested workers back to the steel mill for processing. But what surprised me was that in the surprise inspection last night, almost all of the workers who had been arrested were caught again with evidence; what was even more incredible to me was that many of the arrested workers confessed that when they used machines to cut large pieces of scrap steel and copper in the workshop during the lunch break, their team leaders and workshop directors turned a blind eye and no one stopped them. Here I can't help but wonder what the ideological education work carried out by the steel mill for more than a week last fall actually promoted. "

At this time, Chang Changzheng and Liu Changhe, who were sitting opposite the conference table, were on pins and needles. Their faces were gloomy. The numbers that came out of Qin Ming's mouth made them feel shocked. They never expected that under their leadership, there were so many workers in the Red Star Steel Mill who stole the materials of the steel mill, and it was revealed in front of Minister Wang of Gongyebu.

In fact, after seeing the Security Department conducting a surprise inspection last night, Chang Changzheng had already had a private communication with Liu Changhe. The two had basically the same idea and still wanted to resolve the issue internally, trying to make a big deal out of a small matter. After all, if the matter got out, the impact would be too bad.

However, to their surprise, they received a call from the Security Department just after they got to work this morning, requiring all factory leaders of the steel rolling mill to attend a meeting in the conference room of the Security Department's training base before nine o'clock.
