Chapter 909 Unnamed Draft
Chief Engineer Zhang also hesitated. He didn't want to work in the branch factory. But he didn't want to take any risks...
"Director Li, this is no joke. I think we should just forget it! No one can afford the consequences if something goes wrong..."
Li Huaide thought to himself, you coward, haven’t you heard that the brave will die of overeating while the timid will die of starvation?
"Please check again. I think adding a little bit won't cause any problem. Maybe it will be successful just by that little bit! We can't let Big Brother laugh at us again..."
After a few minutes
Chief Engineer Zhang nodded slightly to Li Huaide...
"You can add a little, but the workers must be evacuated... If things stabilize, we can come back to open the furnace and put in the mold. If the situation is not right, the boiler room will immediately release the pressure to prevent the steel furnace from exploding."
After Li Huaide listened to Lao Zhang's proposal, all the workers in the No. 3 furnace evacuated to a safe area.
"Notify the boiler room to continue pressurizing and be prepared to release pressure at any time."
As Li Huaide's order was conveyed, hundreds of people stopped what they were doing and evacuated the scene.
In the factory office, Lin Chen was playing chess with An Jie.
"Wait for me... I'll be right back. Don't move my chess pieces. I remember everything."
An Jie thought that his brother Lin Chen was going to the toilet, so he waved his hand...
"Go quickly, I promise not to cheat..."
Lin Chen smiled and left... It wouldn't finish downloading anyway! Let her do whatever she wants...
Although the furnace had to be blown up, Lin Chen didn't want to harm innocent ordinary workers.
His thoughts could only control a range of one hundred meters centered on himself...so Lin Chen had to go to Workshop 5 in stealth.
Just as Lin Chen arrived... tens of thousands of workers in the entire steel rolling mill were frightened by a loud noise.
The explosion could be heard ten miles away...a hole was also opened in the roof of Workshop 5.
"Oh no... retreat quickly... the furnace exploded!"
Outside the fifth workshop, everyone ran away...
Li Huaide collapsed to the ground in fear... He knew he was in trouble!
After working so hard for several months, all his efforts were in vain...his role as the general director of this project was doomed.
Chief Engineer Zhang also looked at the fleeing workers stupidly. At this moment he knew that he could no longer stay in the main factory.
After minimizing the damage, Lin Chen returned to the factory office building. At this time, Secretary Wan and Director Yang also ran downstairs.
"Director Lin, hurry up... this is terrible, notify the medical department to save the people first."
Although no one was injured, Lin Chen still followed them to Workshop 5...
"What's wrong with this Li Huaide? Is he asleep?"
"Secretary Wan, the main concern now is how many workers are injured... Let's save them first!"
Lin Chen was running in front, while Secretary Wan and Director Yang were still behind, worried about the casualties of the workers... Although Li Huaide was in charge, they were also affected.
……
When the three men arrived, Li Huaide had already been carried by two people to sit by the garden.
"Secretary Wan, I...I..."
Before Li Huaide finished speaking, Secretary Wan looked at Wang Chao who had rushed over.
"Take him back to the security department and keep him under guard... The rest of you should put out the fire first...!"
Wang Chao waved his hand and two security guards took Li Huaide away.
Feng Donglai ran up to Secretary Wan, covered in dust and dirt.
"Wan... Secretary Wan, don't worry, everyone is fine. Chief Engineer Zhang had already evacuated the workers in advance for fear of an accident. It was Li Huaide who ordered the pressure increase. We can only listen to him..."
Feng Donglai is Li Huaide's most loyal lackey, but now he wants to be a fence-sitter!
Even if there were no casualties, the No. 3 furnace in Workshop 5 was destroyed! This was no small matter... Now all the responsibility had to be put on Li Huaide.
"Go and confirm if there is anyone inside and find out who is responsible later."
Feng Donglai went to check again, and the leaders were relieved. It was a great blessing that there were no casualties, otherwise how could they explain to the department.
Feng Shigao, who rushed over, almost laughed out loud while hiding in the crowd. He never expected that such a big thing would happen in the new project.
"Okay, okay, this time Li Huaide will suffer a lot. Even if a god is his father, he can't be saved..."
Feng Shigao had just asked the people in the fifth workshop, and this time it was all ordered by Li Huaide...
Lin Chen thought that Li Huaide would behave himself this time, so he would just watch his own people perform in the future! A factory director at the department level could not be beaten casually, but if he was taken down, he would be beaten without hesitation.
I gave you the opportunity but you didn't use it, so get out of here now!
Evening
Secretary Wan took Lin Chen out of the office building of the Ministry of Metallurgy...
We still need to review, but fortunately Li Huaide is the one who took the blame. He volunteered to lead the new project, and now it's his fault. The technical engineers said the equipment was not good, but you were still eager to make progress and insisted on increasing the pressure...
"Xiao Lin, did you know that something was going to happen to furnace number three?"
In response to Secretary Wan's question, Lin Chen just smiled.
"I heard from Yuri and the others that with the current technology, our equipment is not enough to produce high-strength steel. Li Huaide has failed so many times, he must be unwilling to give up..."
The two got into the car while talking, and Lin Chen took Secretary Wan to Quanjude to eat roast duck...
"What should we do? Yuri and the others won't help, and there's no progress in improving our process?"
Looking at Secretary Wan who looked helpless... Lin Chen smiled and said, "Let's eat first, and we'll talk later..."
……
In a private room of Quanjude, two people clinked their wine cups lightly.
"Xiao Lin, are we going to give up this opportunity to show off? Minister Liu just told us not to be discouraged... The department still encourages us to give it a try."
Lin Chen thought that he certainly couldn’t miss the opportunity, but he couldn’t give it to anyone else.
Our people are not here to eat and do nothing... We must replace all the original people now.
"Of course we can't just give up like this. Let's try the furnace in Workshop 4! It seems that the problem is still the immature technology. Let others do it. Let's hold a review meeting tomorrow to deal with Li Huaide's negligence first..."
Lin Chen thought that after dealing with Li Huaide, the new project would be handed over to Director Yang... He didn't dare to take this job.
Then I will be the temporary commander and form a new team... and easily win the national competition before May 1st.
Secretary Wan immediately laughed when he heard this... Although there were no casualties in the furnace explosion, it was also seen as a joke by other units.
Security Department
When Deputy Director Xu arrived, he first beat up his son-in-law... People who have experienced war all have bad tempers.
This explosion destroyed Li Huaide's future!
"What's wrong with you? The steel mill has the people and equipment... Other units can't compare to your resources, and you can still mess it up. Do you know how many people in the department are watching us... Just Qi Tianlai won't let it go."
Li Huaide's eyes were dull and he sat on the ground, letting his father-in-law beat and scold him.
It’s no use saying anything now… I’m sure I won’t be able to keep my position as deputy factory director.
"Dad, I... I just wanted to save face for you! Who knew it would turn out like this. You must protect me! Sooner or later we will have a chance to turn things around..."
