The first middle-aged man to order a high-altitude fall arrester was called Gao Dacheng. He used to be a laborer who followed others to construction sites. Later, he became a contractor and took on projects himself. Gradually, he owned a small construction company.

He contracted the project from the superior construction unit and was responsible for the main construction of the building.

The quantity required by Gao Dacheng is not large. The project he is responsible for only has two buildings, and each building has only more than ten floors. The total number of installations for the two buildings is only thirty or forty.

He was a little embarrassed at first, thinking that he was just a small business owner and was afraid of being looked down upon and looked down upon.

Unexpectedly, they didn't mind at all that his business was small, and were very enthusiastic about helping him calculate the quantity needed for the two buildings.

Before officially signing the contract, Gao Dacheng suddenly thought of an important question: "It should be easy to disassemble and assemble. Can I do it myself?"

Xiao Min hesitated for a moment, then figured out the reason: "Boss Gao wants to tear it down after the project is completed?"

Gao Dacheng's answer was that he was only responsible for the construction of the building, and it had nothing to do with him after the acceptance. He bought the high-altitude fall arrester with his own money, so there was no reason for it to remain on the exterior wall of the building. He planned to take it to the next project.

Xiao Min looked at Dai Li: "Teacher Dai, can our fall arrester be disassembled? It seems not possible."

Dai Li folded her hands and nodded.

The high-altitude fall arrester fixed on the outer wall of the building cannot be disassembled at will. This is to ensure the stability after installation and to avoid malicious damage or theft.

If it is removed violently, the high-altitude fall arrester will lock itself and need to be unlocked and re-authorized by the company.

"Then what should I do? Can't I take it away after I use it? I have to leave it here?" Gao Dacheng frowned. That was all the money he paid out of his own pocket. Was he going to give it to the developer for free?

The more Gao Dacheng thought about it, the more he felt it was not cost-effective. He only made a little profit from contracting a project, and usually he had to pay for a lot of things himself. The funds he had for turnover were already tight.

He was a little hesitant, not sure whether he should still purchase the high-altitude drop device.

On one hand, there is construction safety, and on the other hand, there is construction cost.

The two ends of the scale swayed back and forth in his heart.

He was struggling with his thoughts when he suddenly heard Dai Li say, "Then we'll specially customize a batch of construction site versions for you, Boss Gao. Only you will have access to them, so you can disassemble them yourself."

Gao Dacheng was immediately flattered: "You can even customize it for me. How long does it take for a custom order?"

Dai Li: "No need to wait, it will be installed tomorrow as normal."

"Aren't you going to customize it? No need to wait?" This was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise to Gao Dacheng. According to his understanding, there was no such thing as custom-made things that did not require waiting, which could be as short as one or two days, or as long as one, two weeks, or even a month.

He looked around, his eyes constantly moving across their faces, as if he wanted to seek confirmation from them.

Xiao Min smiled and replied, "Boss Gao, don't worry. This is the efficiency our company has always maintained."

After receiving a positive response, Gaodacheng signed the purchase contract with satisfaction on the same day.

Although Gao Dacheng heard Dai Li's promise and knew that they would come to install it the next day, he was still surprised by their efficiency.

As soon as Gao Dacheng got to work in the morning, Dai Li came with the installation team.

She personally authorized Gao Dacheng to dismantle the equipment and instructed him on how to install and dismantle it.

The entire installation process took less than an hour and did not affect the on-site construction.

Gao Dacai only answered two calls, and the installation team finished their work in the blink of an eye.

He hadn't reacted when Gao Dacheng came to inspect and sign.

During the installation process, they also attracted people from the construction site next door, who gathered around to see the novelty before officially starting work.

The man in the lead was also a small contractor. The rose gold watch on his wrist was extremely eye-catching. It kept reflecting light under the sunlight, making it easy to guess his identity at a glance.

He rolled up his sleeves to reveal his watch, put his hands on his hips, looked up, and said sourly, "Boss Gao, you've made a lot of money in the past two years."

Gao Dacheng waved his hand and said, "Mr. Zhang, please don't look down on me. I only make a living. My business is nothing compared to your boss Pan's. He only undertakes big projects."

Boss Pan: "Boss Gao, don't be so modest. Everyone knows you're rich. Yesterday, I went to see so many big bosses from big companies, but they couldn't afford to purchase. Only you, Boss Gao, were so straightforward that you installed two buildings in one go."

Due to the purchase of a high-altitude fall arrester, Gao Dacheng suddenly became famous in the local construction industry circle.

Everyone knows that there is a rich man named Gao Dacheng who paid for the high-altitude fall arrest devices for two buildings with his own money.

Some people say he is stupid, some say he has too much money to burn, and they all want to ask him in person what he thinks.

So, Boss Pan came early in the morning and happened to run into the installation site.

Boss Pan: "You heard installing this isn't cheap. You're really willing to spend the money."

Gao Dacheng: "I'm doing this for the sake of construction safety. If it can ensure the safety of the workers, spending a little money is worth it."

Boss Pan disagreed: "We are operating according to the regulations and supervising the workers to ensure that the work is carried out in a standardized manner. What danger can there be? You just need to be cautious."

Gao Dacheng: "Better safe than sorry. Have you forgotten how Boss Zhong's company went bankrupt?"

Boss Pan's expression changed for a moment.

Like them, Boss Zhong was also a small construction boss before, and his business was much more prosperous than theirs.

As the business was growing bigger and bigger, I didn't expect that misfortune would come upon me.

In order to raise money for internet access, several middle school students planned to steal steel from the construction site and sell it.

At twelve o'clock in the morning, they pulled open the fence of the construction site and sneaked into the half-built building under the cover of darkness.

The lighting was poor at night, and they were unfamiliar with the conditions at the construction site and had no safety precautions.

Two of the five students at the scene slipped and fell from the sixth floor.

One of them had a steel bar pierce his heart and died on the spot, and the other became a high-level paraplegic and needed someone to take care of him all the time.

After the accident, the project that Boss Zhong was in charge of at the construction site was urgently stopped, and the money invested could not be recovered.

As the main person in charge of the project, he paid hundreds of thousands of yuan in compensation to the families of the deceased students.

He also had to bear the medical expenses of another person, which cost millions of dollars. The family members kept pestering him for money, blocking his home, making trouble at his company, and constantly asking him for money. The student with high paraplegia was like a bottomless pit, and he needed to keep filling this hole.

Almost all the money Boss Zhong earned in the past few years was lost in this accident, and he is still struggling to find money to repay the debt he owed.

His story makes those who work in the construction industry feel helpless and sad.

Regardless of whether the person in the accident is a worker on the construction site, as long as the accident occurs at the construction site, the person in charge of the construction site cannot shirk responsibility.

The accidents of the two students were their own fault, but the construction site failed to fulfill its supervisory obligations and allowed the students to enter the site at will.

When faced with an unexpected disaster, the units involved can only accept their bad luck and pay compensation.

Gao Dacheng: "If we encounter the same thing as Boss Zhong again, do you think we can bear the responsibility and pay for everything we own?"

Boss Pan: "It's been so long since I last saw this. If you had someone on night patrol duty, not even a rat could get in, let alone a human."

Gao Dacheng shook his head. "I'm not only worried about the safety of outsiders, but also the safety of our construction workers. Not only do I have elderly and young children, but the workers too. We can't afford any accidents. I'd better spend money to buy peace of mind."

The workers of Gaodacheng also temporarily stopped their work, sat down to rest at the edge of the construction site, smoked cigarettes and looked curiously at the newly installed high-altitude fall arrester.

After hearing what Gao Dacheng said, his workers couldn't help but feel comforted.

"Boss Gao, is this thing you installed really that safe?"

"Uncle Li, you're so busy making money all day long that you never even read the news online. Don't you know that high-tech can prevent objects from falling from heights? If your spatula or bricks accidentally fall, you don't have to worry about them hitting anyone. Even people who fall have nets to catch them."

"What net? I don't see any net."

"Brother Li, let me find the video for you. You'll know after watching it."

The enthusiastic co-workers helped Lao Li find the official introductory science video and the video of the child accidentally falling from the building.

Mr. Li has limited education and doesn't quite understand the popular science videos, but that doesn't stop him from praising this anti-fall net.

In the past, it was the boss Gao Dacheng who gave cigarettes to the workers, but today, Lao Li gave Gao Dacheng a cigarette for the first time.

"Boss Gao, thank you for thinking of us and being willing to pay for the installation yourself."

Gao Dacheng accepted it without hesitation: "Your safety is my safety. We all left our hometowns to work in order to provide a better life for our families. We came out safely and we must return safely."

His impassioned speech drew warm applause from his fellow workers.

The workers at the neighboring construction site who followed Boss Pan to watch the excitement were full of envy.

They earn their money through hard work at the construction site and work so hard every day. Who wouldn’t want their job safety to be guaranteed?

Someone then asked, "Boss Pan, Boss Gao's construction site has been installed, when will our site be installed?"

"Yes, Boss Pan, should we install it in our company?"

Boss Pan was reluctant to pay the money out of his own pocket, but he couldn't just say no, as that would be too depressing to the workers' morale.

He laughed and said, "I'll ask first. If it can be installed, we'll install it."

Anyway, he just said that he would go for consultation. As for the result of the consultation, it is still up to him. As long as he can deal with the current situation, it's fine.

Unfortunately, Gao Dacheng did not fulfill his wish. He called Dai Li over and introduced her to Boss Pan.

"Their person in charge is right here. You can consult their teacher Dai now."

Dai Li looked at the plump and pale Boss Pan and asked, "Boss Pan, do you also want to install a high-altitude fall arrester?"

Dai Li and Gao Dacheng were looking at him, Gao Dacheng's workers were looking at him, and his own workers were also staring at him.

Under the heavy pressure, Boss Pan was under great pressure and his forehead was covered with sweat.

"I just want to ask, it will take a long time from ordering to installation." Boss Pan took out a piece of toilet paper from his trouser pocket and wiped it on his bald forehead, silently calculating in his heart that as long as he could delay it for a day or two, he would find a way to cancel the order.

There was no need for Dai Li to answer personally. Gundam Chengjiu helped reply: "Don't wait, I purchased it yesterday and installed it today. If you place an order today, it will definitely be installed tomorrow."

"No need to wait until tomorrow, we can install it now. We have plenty of stock, enough for Mr. Pan to install."

Boss Pan paused in wiping his forehead, and the torn tissue paper stuck to his forehead.

"Can it be installed now?"

"Boss Pan, you are so lucky. You just happened to run into Teacher Dai and her team who have the goods." Gao Dacheng was really happy for him.

Boss Pan smiled awkwardly: "Yeah, I'm really lucky."

Dai Li: "Does Boss Pan need this batch of goods?"

The workers looked at Boss Pan eagerly.

Now Boss Pan is in a difficult situation and has to buy up all the remaining high-altitude fall arresters from Dai Li.

When he pinched his nose and said "yes", Boss Pan secretly cursed himself several times. He let you watch the fun, and now you see, a quarter's income has been lost.

Boss Pan's project is bigger than Gao Dacheng's. He has undertaken the construction of the entire community. There are five buildings currently under construction, and the number of floors is higher than Gao Dacheng's. The contract amount is more than twice that of Gao Dacheng.

He had a funny piece of shredded tissue paper on his forehead as he watched over the installation of the high-altitude fall arrester.

Every time he installed one, he felt heartbroken.

For the sake of his own heart, Boss Pan simply turned his back and stopped looking.

Dai Li: "Boss Pan, your fall arrester has been installed. If you have any other needs, please contact us and we will arrange for on-site installation as soon as possible."

Boss Pan readily agreed, but what he was thinking in his heart was that there wouldn't be a next time. This time was a special situation, and there would be no such opportunity next time. Don't even think about asking him to spend a penny again.

Dai Li: "Remember to take away the high-altitude fall arrester when the project is finished."

Boss Pan thought that it was such an expensive thing, he would never forget it even if he forgot himself.

Dai Li: "This is the authorization code card. Remember to keep it safe for yourself and don't give it to anyone else."

Boss Pan drove home with the authorization password card.

He couldn't stay at the construction site. If he stayed, he would see the high-altitude fall arrester, and then think of the money he had given away today, and he would suddenly feel so painful that he couldn't breathe.

It was lunch time when Boss Pan returned home. The whole family was eating in the dining room and had not expected him to come back at noon.

Without saying hello to anyone, he walked straight to the tea table he had built himself, threw the permission password card onto the table, and took a big gulp of the cold tea on the table.

"What happened to you outside?" his wife put down her bowl and asked at the door of the dining room.

"I didn't get angry."

"You're not angry, who are you showing your displeasure to?"

"I gave away some money."

"Giving away wealth doesn't mean you're giving up your life. Why do you look so half-dead? Come and have dinner."

Boss Pan put down his teacup in annoyance, stood up dejectedly and went to the dining room.

At this time, his wife was still scolding him.

"I came home and didn't even say hello, and the elders were still at home."

Boss Pan is busy with his business from dawn to dusk, and most of the time he cannot take care of the family. The child's grandmother has come to help take care of the child since the child was born. They have lived together for almost twenty years, and he absolutely dares not disrespect his mother-in-law.

He quickly apologized and explained that he was in a bad mood because of business matters.

The child's grandmother was a reasonable person. Not only did she not get angry with him, but she also scolded the child's mother for being too harsh.

"He's under a lot of pressure to make money outside. You need to be more understanding and not get angry easily."

Boss Pan’s wife has been scolded by her own mother for decades, but she doesn’t take it to heart at all and even follows her mother’s words and asks Boss Pan.

"Your mother-in-law said you're under a lot of pressure. Why don't you tell us how much pressure you're under this time?"

Boss Pan glanced at her and said, "You lost two bags today. Can you imagine how much pressure you're under this time?"

"Two bags are missing?" His wife frowned. "What on earth did you do?"

Boss Pan recalled what happened this morning, and his heart ached again.

His wife was confused: "What is a net to prevent falling objects from high altitude?"

Boss Pan's son was concentrating on eating when he suddenly looked up.

"I know, it's the high-altitude fall arrester that's been very popular recently!"

Boss Pan's wife still didn't understand: "What is that high-altitude device used for?"

Older people don’t pay attention to the Internet in real time and have no idea how popular high-altitude fall arresters are on the Internet.

Young people on the Internet are obsessed with anti-fall nets because the moment they are ejected reminds them of Spider-Man. Every hot-blooded young person has a dream of being a hero.

Including their son.

Their son didn't even bother to eat. He put down his bowl and chopsticks, found the video, and began to demonstrate to them with his hands and hands. Judging from his explanation of the high-altitude fall arrester, he could be called an expert.

This time, Mr. Pan’s wife understood: “So this net can save people?”

Their son: "Not only can it save people, but this net is also really cool, Mom. I really want one. Whoosh, I can fly over."

Boss Pan scolded, "Cool, cool, cool, you only know how cool it is. Do you know how expensive this thing is? How much did I, your father, spend on it?"

His son secretly pursed his lips, turned away without looking at Boss Pan, and continued eating.

His wife: "Since it can save lives, just spend the money. Why do you feel bad about it?"

Boss Pan: "Am I the only one who feels bad? You don't feel bad about losing two bags?"

His wife rolled her eyes and said, "You're underestimating me. It's just buying two fewer bags. It's not that difficult."

Boss Pan: "Are you being truly generous or just pretending to be generous?"

The child's grandmother also said, "Xiao Pan, safety is your top priority when you're out and about. You can't save money, and you have to spend what you should. So many people work for you, and they all have their own parents to take care of and their own children to raise. Spending a little money can ensure everyone's safety, so we can't be stingy."

Mr. Pan’s wife said, “Look, your child’s grandmother, who is over sixty years old, knows this. You are still not as far along as an elderly person.”

Boss Pan: “…”

His son also joined in the fun, saying, "If I ever become a boss, I won't be so stingy. As long as it's for the safety of my employees, I'm willing to spend any amount."

The whole family’s unanimous condemnation made Boss Pan look like a villain.

He had no appetite for food.

"I spent the money, but you guys are the ones who have the final say. Do you think I'm that stingy? Do you think I'm the kind of person who doesn't care about the workers' lives?"

"You spent the money, but you didn't feel happy about it. You made a long face, and who couldn't tell that you were unhappy? Your workers are not fools."

But Boss Pan was unhappy and couldn't laugh even if he was asked to.

Construction sites are now strictly supervised and construction safety regulations must be strictly observed. Workers who are not wearing protective equipment are not allowed to enter the construction site.

His construction site has always been strictly managed. Since he contracted the project, there have been minor bumps and conflicts, but no major incidents have ever occurred.

In Boss Pan's opinion, the high-altitude fall arrester on his construction site was a waste of money.

But he soon changed his mind because an accident happened on his construction site half a month later.

The first batch of houses built in the project were about to be topped out. One afternoon a week before the topping-out, a worker returned to work after lunch. He felt dizzy due to heatstroke and stepped on empty air and fell from the 28th floor.

Fortunately, he was caught by the anti-fall net and was not injured, but was a little frightened.

Boss Pan was scared to death when he heard the news, but fortunately it was just a false alarm.

A few days later, Boss Pan was still frightened and went out for a drink with Gao Dacheng.

After two glasses of wine, Boss Pan got drunk and kept talking to Gao Dacheng, saying that it was a blessing that he had followed Gao Dacheng to install the high-altitude anti-fall net, otherwise he would be finished this time.

Not to mention having to compensate the workers, the project will also be forced to be suspended, affecting the completion date. Every day of delay means additional losses.

This accident is likely to kill him.

"It's really hard to guard against. I never thought he could step on air even with a safety rope. It's the 28th floor. If he really fell, he would definitely be dead. Lao Gao, Boss Gao, this is my toast to you. I laughed at you back then, but now it seems I'm the fool."

"When I got home, the kid's mother kept nagging me for days, all she did was scold me for being stingy and almost getting myself into trouble."

Gao Dacheng smiled and the two of them clinked their glasses.

Putting down his wine glass, Gao Dacheng asked, "You've only installed five buildings, right? Are you going to install more buildings in the next few phases?"

"Install them all!" Boss Pan replied firmly.

"No need to talk anymore, this meal is on me."

While Boss Pan was feeling relieved, he thought that the accident had come to an end, but he did not expect that there would be a follow-up to the worker's fall.

Out of a sense of responsibility, even though the worker was not injured, Boss Pan still gave him a red envelope as a solace.

The worker took the red envelope and left Boss Pan’s construction site, saying that he was too tired recently and planned to go home and rest for a while.

Boss Pan didn't think much about it and welcomed him to come back at any time.

A few days after sending that worker away, he heard about another falling incident at a construction site a week later. The person who fell was the same worker who almost fell at his site.

The workers' families brought media reporters to visit the head of the real estate company that day.

The real estate company involved in the accident was a particularly well-known local company, and the news quickly spread widely, with all citizens knowing that someone had died on their company's construction site.

It is obvious that the heat of this accident will not dissipate easily, nor can it be solved with a little money.

Boss Pan suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
