Chapter 1248 Things May Be More Serious Than We Think
Before Director Yang could figure out how to salvage the situation, Secretary Jiang rushed in: "Director, something bad has happened. People from the newspaper are here and want to see Xiao Chuxue."
Factory Director Yang said with displeasure, "Didn't she resign? You've already started dating them, and now you want me to teach you how to do things?"
Secretary Jiang's face was very unpleasant: "But that female reporter wouldn't listen to what I was saying at all. She even said that such an impartial person couldn't possibly return to Beijing and then resign. She insisted on going into the factory to find out the real situation."
Factory Director Yang slammed his fist on the table: "Is she out of her mind? This is a steel rolling mill, not their newspaper office."
No sooner had he finished speaking than he heard from outside: "Director Yang, what a show of power you have!"
Factory Director Yang turned to look at the door and saw his immediate superior: "Boss, why didn't you tell me you were coming? I could have met you at the gate."
The newcomer had a cold expression: "If we had given you advance notice, we wouldn't have seen you showing off."
Upon hearing this, Director Yang broke out in a cold sweat: "Old leader, I just lost my temper for a moment."
The visitor sat down on the wooden sofa: "The Ministry of Foreign Trade and Economic Cooperation has been urging me to resign. I came here today to find out the reason for Comrade Xiao Chuxue's departure."
Factory Director Yang looked troubled: "Old leader, have you heard some gossip? I previously..."
Before he could finish speaking, his superior interrupted him, raising his hand: "Director Yang, do you know how serious this matter is? The foreign trade department called and said that if Miss Anna doesn't see Xiao Chuxue by tomorrow, their schedule will be canceled. You'd better tell me the truth. I don't believe that someone who is brave enough to risk their own safety to save someone would be so disregardful of the bigger picture."
Factory Director Yang wiped the sweat from his forehead, knowing that some things could not be kept secret, so he recounted what had happened in detail, and of course, he did not forget to mention his helplessness and the remedial actions taken afterward.
He had barely finished speaking, trembling, when the leader slammed his hand on the table, stood up angrily, pointed at his nose, and yelled, "What do you take the power in your hands for? What do you take the national interest for? A tool for your own self-interest?"
After scolding him, he looked at Deputy Factory Director Gu at the door and said, "From now on, you will take over the factory's work. Director Yang's thinking is dangerous. Suspend all your work."
Upon hearing this, Director Yang swayed and had to grab the table to steady himself: "Old leader, please listen to me."
The leader didn't even look at him, and pointed to Deputy Factory Director Gu: "You accompany me for a walk around."
After saying that, he also told those accompanying him to stop.
Deputy Factory Director Gu had just returned from Chu Xue's place when he reported on the fact that the Guangzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau and the Ministry of Railways had given Chu Xue a reward. The leader's face showed a look of disappointment and frustration: "He played such a good trump card so badly. The ministry will probably become a laughing stock among other departments soon."
Thinking of that eldest daughter of the Qin family, the leader was even more furious: Fine, someone has to take the blame for this. Since it's for the sake of the Qin family's daughter, then let the Qin family take responsibility.
Deputy Factory Director Gu accompanied the leader on a tour of the factory, and after getting a general understanding of the situation, he left the factory without looking back, accompanied by his entourage.
Director Yang had never lost face before, but since the leader had already spoken, even if he wanted to explain, they didn't give him a chance.
But he wasn't about to give up. After sending everyone away, he immediately made another call: "Chief Qin, something bad has happened. The old leader just arrived at the factory, and the situation might be more serious than we thought."
