“When you go to Hong Kong, ask Kwok Ping-cheung to help you sell off the four major sectors of agriculture, forestry, fishery and animal husbandry. This will give them the illusion that this private capital is from the Kwok family.”
Mentioning such a prominent figure as Kwok Ping-cheung, Ma Guoliang became somewhat hesitant, asking, "Can Kwok Ping-cheung trust us?"
"When you get to the Guo family, mention my name. If they are unwilling to help, then forget it."
Ma Guoliang nodded silently and hung up the phone.
Upon arriving at the Hukou Station of Poyang Lake, the county head and several researchers had already gone to the most dangerous part of the dike to inspect the piping situation.
"There aren't even any lights around here at this hour, so they just took a few flashlights?" Chen Dong looked at the vast lake, and all he could hear was the sound of waves being whipped up by the wind.
Because of a week of rain in the Poyang Lake area, the power equipment was almost destroyed. The reason why the Hukou Station can still keep the lights on is because they have activated the backup batteries.
Most of the communication equipment was destroyed. The reason Chen Dong and his group were able to make phone calls on the road was because the Hukou Station base station had just been restored after emergency repairs.
After waiting for about an hour, the county head, deputy county head, and a group of researchers returned, looking exhausted.
Chen Dong stepped forward anxiously and asked, "How is it?"
As the deputy county head untied the rope around his waist, he said, "There was a piping failure, but I've already gone down and plugged the opening."
"Impressive!" Chen Dong exclaimed in genuine admiration.
After the group waited on the shore for two or three hours, a sliver of light finally appeared on the horizon.
Using the signal from a nearby base station, Chen Dong quickly made an emergency conference call to Longteng Group.
All of Longteng Company's top executives, including the previously formed interim president's committee, have resumed their roles.
As soon as the conference call connected, Chen Dong issued orders to the interim president's committee via telephone:
“Annie, from this moment on, immediately shut down all commercial projects such as shopping malls and factories in the flood-affected areas. At the same time, pay the employees in these areas three months’ salary and send them away from these areas.”
Annie was really worried about Chen Dong's situation. They had been unable to reach him by phone before, but now that they suddenly heard his voice, Annie's heart finally settled down. "Don't worry, Mr. Chen, I guarantee that this task will be completed within a day."
"Also, many people signed up for the flood relief initiative that we issued internally at Longteng earlier, and we need their support now."
“Brother-in-law, this task is assigned to you. Immediately organize the Longteng Trade Union, have Party members participate in disaster relief, and distribute subsidies to them. We promise that after the disaster, everyone on the list will have the opportunity for promotion and further education.”
"At the same time, if they make great contributions in the process of flood control and disaster relief, we will also award them funds in the name of Longteng."
"In short, this group of people must be quickly organized into a disaster relief team and sent to the rear areas of the Dongting Lake and Poyang Lake water systems within three days. Their main responsibility is to provide logistical support for the rescue and relief officers and soldiers, militia members, and the masses."
