Cheng Shopping Center is one of the main physical businesses of Qi's Group, with 21 chain stores in 19 cities across the country. The annual operating income accounts for about 20% of Qi's total revenue. The T City shopping mall that caught fire this time was one of the earliest built and has been operating well for more than ten years.
Over the past decade or so, there have been petty thefts, and the report has been reported in financial tabloids due to industry competition, but no one has ever been killed, and yet the number is still so large.
6 dead and 32 injured.
And according to reports, the fire has been put out, but the rescue has not been completed and the number of casualties is still increasing.
Just looking at the pictures sent back from the scene, Qi Xingchen's eyes kept going dark.
With such a big thing happening at home, there was no way he would go to his boyfriend's house to play. After explaining everything in detail to Mr. and Mrs. Bai, Mr. Bai Ye drove him back to the headquarters of Qi's Group in H City himself.
Before leaving the car, Bai Ye patted his back soothingly and said, "I'll be there anytime if you need me."
Um... I'm sorry I couldn't accompany you properly this time.
"It doesn't matter, the things in the tomb are more important.
Qi Xingchen glanced at Bai Ye, gritted his teeth, jumped out of the car and left.
This was the first time he came to his company after transmigrating into the book. It was estimated that the original owner also seldom came to the company often. When he walked in, the security guard at the door and the receptionist looked at each other in bewilderment and no one responded.
When they recognized who he was, a large group of people followed him to the chairman's office.
Mr. Qi happened to have just hung up the phone, and when he saw him, he was surprised and asked, "Xingxing, why are you back?
"I saw the trending search," Qi Xingchen asked, "Is it serious?"
With so many lives lost, how could it not be serious? But Yunxiao has already dealt with it, so you don't have to worry.
Although he said he was not worried, the worry on Qi Xiaoming's face was obvious. Qi Xingchen was very anxious and made a cup of tea for his father.
After staring at him and drinking a few sips, he continued to ask: "Have you found out the cause?
"The preliminary investigation results show that the fire was caused by old circuit pipelines," Qi Xiaoming said, "The fire started in the warehouse of a clothing store on the first floor.
Electrical fire... Qi Xingchen was puzzled, "If it was a fire in the clothing warehouse, the smoke should be quite heavy. Didn't κ½ζ install a smoke alarm?
In addition, the company promises to inspect the circuits and smoke alarms every month and replace fire prevention equipment as required every year, without missing a year. The strange thing is that this time, all the smoke alarms went off at the same time. After receiving the alarm, the security department immediately evacuated people from different floors.
At this point, the strong-willed Mr. Qi choked up, drank some water to calm himself down, and continued, "Unfortunately, the warehouse on fire was not far from the emergency passage. Everyone retreated to the first floor, only to find that the door handle of the passage had been melted by the fire and could not be opened. At this time, the emergency passage was full of smoke, and everyone rushed back.
[By the way, the best app for reading and listening to books at present is to install the latest version. γ
The most deadly thing in a fire is not the fire, but the smoke and panic. Qi Xingchen could guess what was left without Qi Xiaoming saying it.
When I ran back, the corridor was already filled with smoke. In order to escape, everyone ignored courtesy and pushed and trampled on each other...
Those who escaped will come back, and those who were left there will stay there forever.
Qi Xingchen felt that something was a little strange, especially the burning fog alarm.
Unfortunately, more than half of the mall has been burned down, so we cannot check them one by one for the time being. We can only review recent videos after the emergency repairs are completed to see if it is really an equipment failure or a human factor.
His chest felt stuffy and his hands were shaking visibly. He opened his mouth and found that his voice was hoarse: "Dad, how are you going to deal with it, compensation?
Compensation must be paid, but this is not a problem that can be solved with money. These are real lives... Xingxing, I don't even dare to blink now. I feel that if I blink, I will see the families of the victims crying in front of me.
Qi Xiao took a deep breath, "I will do my best to meet the demands of all the victims' families. If the remaining lives cannot be repaid in this life, I will continue to repay them in my next life. I hope they can forgive me, forgive me...,
At the end of his speech, the old man was choked with sobs and couldn't speak. Qi Xingchen's condition was not much better. The father and son looked at each other in silence for a while, and then began to contact the best local burn department separately, hoping to minimize the losses to the injured.
Qi Yunxiao went to T City, leaving behind a lot of official business that no one had to deal with. After the call, Qi Xingchen stayed in the company and did whatever he could to help. Although it doesn't play a big role, with his support, Qi Fuzhi will not lose his appetite due to guilt towards the deceased.
On the tenth day of the first lunar month, Qi Yunxiao finally came back, bringing back some bad news.
The fire ultimately resulted in 29 minor injuries, 7 serious injuries, and 12 deaths, making it a major fire.
The internal surveillance camera of the Imperial Mall was damaged in the fire, but an inquiry into external video footage revealed that no suspicious persons had been spotted around the mall in the past three months. The final cause of the fire was consistent with the preliminary investigation, and the safety and fire prevention measures were not in place. λκ½ζΏθ΄η©δΈλ bears full responsibility.
3. The general manager of Jicheng in city T was arrested for negligent fire. The fire department ordered all 21 Jicheng chain stores to suspend business for at least 15 days for rectification and they can only reopen after being approved by local public security departments. A fine of 2 million yuan was also imposed.
4. The loss of the mall building itself and the goods stored by the merchants therein amounted to nearly 10 million yuan, which shall be borne jointly by the outsourced property management and the mall management.
At the same time, the social impact of the fire was extremely bad. Under the pressure of public opinion and peers who took advantage of the situation, Qi's Group's stock price hit the limit down for two consecutive days and continued to fall for three days, with its market value shrinking by 26%.
The Qi family business empire, which had always been stable, suffered a blow for the first time.
Neither Qi Xingchen nor the original owner was from a business background, so there was no point in them staying in the company. After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, at the urging of his family, Qi Xingchen returned to the crew with heavy emotions to continue filming "Gray Tracks".
As a public figure, appeal is still an advantage. After the incident, many stars voluntarily formed volunteer teams to organize a series of activities to mourn the deceased, visit the injured, etc., coupled with the sincere apology attitude of the Qi family group and the quick and effective handling methods, gradually, the fire faded from the public's view.
Only a small number of people still remember λ.
It has become an eternal pain for the victim and the Qi family.
In mid-March, when the filming of "Gray Tracks" was about to be completed, An Ran took a stack of notebooks and went to Qi Xingchen's room.
She asked tentatively: "Xingxing, what are your plans after filming "Trails"? Do you want to continue to accept notices, or take a break for a while?
"Take the notice," Qi Xingchen said, "You have the plan and the script in your hand, show them to me.
An Ran pushed all the scripts to him and counted them on her fingers: "These are two endorsements, a magazine shoot, two variety shows, and three scripts. The endorsement is for the entire series of the light luxury brand Chunli, and the new products of the internationally renowned cosmetics, which have been received. The magazine is one of the five major ones, and their editor-in-chief said he knows you. The variety show is a satellite TV variety show, which is quite popular, and the fifth season of "Qingyou", your old friend. The scripts include the male lead of the anti-Japanese war-themed TV series and the male lead of the criminal investigation-themed seasonal drama; there is another... and another one is the male lead of a movie.
...The leading actor in the movie? "Qi Xingchen was surprised, "Which director believes that so much?
"You probably don't know him, but he's a not-so-famous director. He's made a few art films, but they never made any splashes. But you can just take a look at the script, it's meaningless. After evaluating it with the team, λ wanted to reject λ outright, but thought you might be interested, so I put it back for you to take a look.
Might he be interested?
Qi Xingchen took out the book curiously and opened the summary.
This movie tells the story of an acrobat, his ordinary yet uneven life.
You really understand," Qi Xingchen was even more curious, "Why do you want to refuse? What's wrong with the script?
I knew he would ask this, An Ran sighed: "You should ask where there is no problem.
Qi Xingchen has so many injuries?
First of all, the script has been written for more than two years. Over the past two years, the director and screenwriter approached countless film and television companies, but all were unwilling to invest because the subject matter was too niche. This time, we found you because we hope you can act in the film for free and invest some money - that is, the legendary "getting something for nothing".
Secondly, the director and screenwriter are both professionally trained and have good skills, but their team is too demanding in terms of aesthetics and camera language, and there was once a joke where one shot was shot sixteen times and the actors tore up the scripts and went on strike. We don't have that much time to spend with him.
Besides...it's your current situation," An Ran turned to Qi Xingchen and said seriously, "After you made your relationship with Bai Ye public, your popularity has increased, and the criticisms have also increased. Anyway, homosexuality is not a nice label: plus your family had an incident some time ago; now you are in urgent need of a positive image to change your image in the public... you should understand.
able. Qi Xingchen nodded
So we suggest you choose one of the anti-Japanese war drama or the seasonal criminal investigation drama. Both of them have positive images and will definitely gain a lot of reputation when they are broadcast.
OK, I got it. Qi Xingchen threw out the two variety show plans neatly and said, "I'll think about it tonight and give you the answer tomorrow."
After a pause, Qi Xingchen said: "By the way, you came at the right time. I have something to discuss with you."
He rarely used the word "discuss". An Ran wanted to leave, but after hearing this, she sat back down and motioned for him to
Qi Xingchen said: "Calculating the time, you have been with me for a long time, and you have been serving as my assistant to take care of me. I am very grateful.
An Ran frowned: "What did you say? There's no need to be polite to you.
λ is telling the truth, not being polite. The decision is made.
Qi Xingchen opened the drawer and took out two equity transfer agreements. "The company has decided to give you 10% of the equity of Xingchen Asset Management as a reward for your personal care. Don't refuse. You know you can't convince me."
An Ran wanted to refuse: She really never convinced him.
Please keep it, because I have something to ask of you.
Qi Xingchen opened one of the agreements. "This is a power of attorney. I want to give you 10% of the shares for safekeeping and change the name of the legal representative to you. In other words, when the agreement takes effect, the 10% of the shares in the company's articles of association will also be yours. You are the sole boss of Xingchen Asset Management, and privately you are the actual controller... Do you want to help?"
An Ran looked at the equity power of attorney
The format is simple and only a few sentences are written. It is not notarized by a notary office and is a private agreement.
If she wanted to run away with the money, she could simply deny it and say that Xingchen Assets was under her absolute control.
No one would choose to take such a big risk unless they have 100% trust in someone.
Qi Xingchen trusted her so much, how could she refuse? She said solemnly: "I am willing.
"Thank you, Sister Anran.
Seeing that she agreed, Qi Xingchen's mood, which had been pent up for a long time, finally improved a little.
During this period, he has transferred the money in his hands to Liang Jing's laboratory one after another. It is easy to transfer money from a personal account, but there are restrictions on transferring money from a company account to a personal account. He had to prepare a company that was apparently unrelated to him, just in case.
If this company could go public, it would be easier to do things. After sending An Ran away, he read the script while opening the video software.
