Chapter 311 309 Then let's build a fire station
"Mr. Zhang, how do you plan to handle this?"
"How long would it take to optimize and renovate all those facilities?"

"About two months," Hong Yi said. "After all, all facilities need to be used and renovated at the same time, so it's not possible to use all the time fully."
"What if the company completely shut down and just did this one thing? How long would that take?"
"If that's the case, the construction time could be controlled within 10 to 15 days!" Hong Yi estimated.
"Then let's give the Silicon Moonlight staff a long vacation!" Zhang Menglong said. "Clear out all the places and time!"
"What about the wages for this period..."
"Pay them in full according to the original salary!" Zhang Menglong said. "There shouldn't be any orders during this period, right?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhang, according to your instructions, after the last acquisition of Silicon Moonlight, all orders in the factory have been stopped," Hong Yi replied. "Now all the employees are basically just doing routine maintenance and some daily sorting work."
"Anyway, we were already spending money to keep them, and they have nothing to do at the company, so might as well send everyone home to rest!"
"Give an extra allowance to each person according to different job levels, let them go on a trip, and then come back after all the company's issues are resolved!"
...
"They're giving us a long vacation? With full pay?"@@novelbin@@
"My God, I can't believe we just had the Spring Festival holiday and now there's another long vacation. This company is like heaven!"
"I joined the company through campus recruitment last October and just started my internship last week, and I already got a 5,000 yuan allowance!"
"20,000? This bonus is even more than my annual bonus!"
"What? Everyone gets this money?"
"I've asked around, the assembly line workers and interns in the workshop each get 5,000, p5 level junior engineers get 10,000 each, p6 level senior engineers get 20,000, supervisors get 50,000, managers 100,000, directors 200,000, and it's all paid out in one go. The notice was just posted today, and within less than twenty minutes, the money was already in our bank accounts!"
"Good heavens! The new boss is so generous. But wasn't our company supposed to be running out of money?"
"I heard that our new Chairman made another round of investment. Apparently, without a word, he threw another 50 billion Huaxia currency into it!"
"He really doesn't care about money!"
...
This brag-worthy news spread quickly.
We just had the Spring Festival holiday, and now we got another half-month paid leave, even including travel allowances, making all the netizens incredibly envious.
"Today is another day to be jealous!"
"Mr. Zhang, just how much money do you have?"
"I don't know how much money Mr. Zhang has, but I believe the zeros in his bank account might be longer than the digits on your ID card."
"Boss Zhang, is your company hiring? I want to work there, the money's not important, I mainly appreciate your business vision!"
...
"What? This Huaxia person really shut down the company and gave all the employees a vacation?" In an office of Silicon Moonlight, a middle-aged man was speaking on the phone in fluent Kaibong language.
"Yes, he even gave everyone a hefty allowance to go on a proper vacation. The construction team has already moved in today, and at this rate, it will take less than half a month to solve all the problems!"
"This Huaxia man, he's really so rich it's outrageous!" The voice on the phone clearly sounded a bit grudging.
"Has Huaxia not put pressure on Zhang Menglong yet?"
"Impossible!" the voice said, "The contracts Zhang Menglong signed with those coal fields are black and white. Huaxia could ask Zhang Menglong to cancel the contract or resell the coal, but the penalty and price are too high. We cannot buy imported coal at the original price unless Zhang Menglong nods himself!"
"But is our approach effective?" the middle-aged man questioned.
"Hmph! Isn't Zhang Menglong importing new earth minerals just to develop chips? His company is a total mess, I don't believe he has the energy to fight us. In the end, he will be the one to compromise!"
"And you, why haven't you managed to obtain even the slightest bit of information for so long?" the voice sounded somewhat angry, "Have the Huaxia people really developed advanced photolithography machines and photoresist?"
"These are the company's top secrets, and moreover, the research site and production area are not here, so..."
"Forget it, I will have others investigate these matters. Your most important task now is to create chaos for me. It would be best if you could use official means to take down this company. The organization won't forget your contribution!"
"Yes!" said the middle-aged man, "I've indeed found a very serious issue recently. I have a good relationship with people in the company's finance department, and I've noticed that their books..."
...
Employees of Silicon Moonlight began packing up to go home, and at this moment, a new construction crew suddenly drove into the industrial town.
"What's going on? Why is there another construction crew? Didn't one come this morning already? Why are there even excavators? Are they here to clear the land?"
"Look, there are so many building materials. The maintenance of the company's factory and office building doesn't need all of these, right?"
"No, I feel like the company is going to build something. But I haven't heard about any construction projects recently!"
"Alright, what are you all lingering around here for?" Xu Huan, the chairman's assistant, walked into the crowded company lobby.
Now, Zhang Menglong conveyed many matters through Xu Huan to the other senior management in the company. His status had risen accordingly, and even the company shareholders had to give him some face. Naturally, the ordinary employees and management respected this highly favored person.
"Assistant Xu, we're just curious. The construction crew already came this morning, didn't they? What's this situation now?" someone couldn't contain their curiosity.
"Oh, it's nothing, just responding to the government's call," Xu Huan said, "Remember the leaders' inspection a while back? They mentioned our company had some firefighting issues and safety hazards."
"Chairman Zhang said, just refurbishing our building's hardware is not enough, we must foresee and prevent potential issues. In case of a fire or something, we'd still have to call the fire brigade. But, our factory is in a remote location, so it takes 40 minutes for the nearest fire brigade to get here. Thus, Chairman Zhang decided to just build a fire station ourselves!"
"What? Build a fire station?"
"My gosh, is that necessary?"
"Chairman Zhang is planning to build it to the scale of a special service fire brigade, with 20 fire trucks, all from imported Mercedes-Benz and MAN, plus two Scania imported aerial ladder trucks that are 101 meters, ensuring our company's fire safety is foolproof!"
"I just looked it up, that Scania aerial ladder truck Assistant Xu mentioned, do you know how much it costs?"
"It's not in the millions, is it?"
"20 million a piece!"
"Sss! That's really spending big money!"
"Isn't it? But everybody says that devils are tough to deal with. Our company has been constantly targeted recently, and surely those Westerners are behind it all!"
"Haha, they think they can take on our company with tactics like that? They clearly don't know who Chairman Zhang is. As long as it can be solved with money, then there isn't a problem!"
"Still, being targeted like this feels really uncomfortable!"
"Hahaha, you guys didn't forget who Chairman Zhang is, did you? He's done so much, when has he ever been at a disadvantage? I bet he's brewing a big move!"
"Then let's just enjoy our travels and watch the drama unfold!"
"Hahaha, despicable! But I like it!"
