"Just do it?"
Chen Xiangya was speechless.
Is there a more down-to-earth corporate culture than this?
"Pfft!"
The girls all burst into laughter at the same time.
"Director Lin, your corporate culture is really simple and crude."
"But... I like it."
Dai Lili clutched her stomach, almost unable to straighten up.
"The words may be rough, but the principle is sound!"
"Talking is not as good as doing; taking practical action is the only true principle!"
Gu Xinyan wiped away the tears that came out of her laughter.
This little incident eased the tense atmosphere considerably.
“Then I’ll contact the fire equipment supplier right away, and we’ll purchase according to the highest standards.”
"I'll be in charge of contacting the construction team."
"..."
Dai Lili, Gu Xinyan, and Chen Xiangya huddled together and started discussing.
They all looked so energetic!
Lin Fan smiled and went to a bench by the side of the path.
He sat down on the bench, lit a cigarette, and then dialed Liang Quan's number.
The call was answered quickly.
"Brother Lin, what made you think of calling me?"
"Is the tea factory about to start production, and you're going to treat me to the first cup of the new tea?"
Liang Quan's cheerful voice came through.
"Brother Liang, it seems we won't be able to enjoy this new tea for the time being."
Lin Fan gave a wry smile.
"Oh? What exactly happened?"
Liang Quan's tone immediately became serious.
That's right.
Lin Fan paused for a moment, then organized his thoughts, "The county fire brigade just came by, saying they were conducting a surprise fire safety inspection."
Our tea factory is still in the final stages and hasn't started production yet.
They said our fire safety hazard was serious and shut it down immediately.
The equipment in the workshop is now sealed off, making it impossible to test or operate it.
"What did you say?"
Liang Quan's voice suddenly rose, tinged with anger, "Isn't this just utter nonsense!"
They shut down the factory before it even opened for business. Are they not even allowing people to properly rectify the situation?
Who exactly is the team leader?
"The person leading the team was named Song Peiyan. He was very aggressive and even threatened to detain me if we didn't agree with each other."
"Later, he directly issued a seizure notice, giving us no chance at all."
Lin Fan briefly explained the situation.
“Song Peiyan…”
Liang Quan repeated the name, then reassured him, "Brother Lin, don't worry."
I understand. Wait for me at the tea factory; I'll be right there.
I'd like to see who gave them the audacity to act so recklessly!
"Brother Liang, I'll have to trouble you with this matter."
Lin Fan sincerely thanked him.
Why are you being so polite with me?
"Wait a moment, I'll finish up what I'm doing and then I'll be right there."
After Liang Quan finished speaking, he hurriedly hung up the phone.
Lin Fan held his phone, smoking as he fell into deep thought.
Something unusual must be going on.
If the firefighters dare to operate illegally, there must be someone backing them up.
But who exactly is targeting them?
Lin Fan paused for a moment, then dialed another number.
Zhao Hanyu.
This time, the phone rang several times before it was answered.
"Kobayashi, you're quite a rare guest."
Why did you decide to call me?
Zhao Hanyu said with a smile.
However, the voice sounded a bit strange.
"Boss, I have something I'd like to report to you."
Lin Fan didn't mind and remained calm as always.
"Reporting on work?"
Zhao Hanyu was clearly a little surprised, but quickly calmed down. "Did Wu Xiaohan change her mind?"
"What a pity...it's too late. The admissions office staff have already returned to Yanjing overnight."
"Secretary Zhao, that's not what I meant."
Lin Fan said calmly.
"Not that? Then what could it be?"
Zhao Hanyu was stunned for a moment.
"Secretary Zhao, it seems the investment in the tea factory is going to fall through."
Lin Fan sighed.
"It's over?"
Zhao Hanyu said with a hint of displeasure, "Xiao Lin, this is not something you can joke about."
The entire county is counting on you to boost employment and generate revenue.
"Secretary Zhao, it's not that I want to shirk my responsibilities, but it's just that even a clever housewife can't cook without rice."
"Comrades from the county fire brigade just arrived at the tea factory."
Without saying a word, he immediately sealed off all the equipment in the workshop.
"Tell me, how am I supposed to keep this factory running?"
After Lin Fan finished speaking, he waited quietly for the other party's reply.
"Such a thing is true?"
Zhao Hanyu immediately raised his voice, "What problems did they find?"
You didn't have a conflict with them, did you?
"They listed a bunch of problems, then simply put up a seal and told us to rectify them."
"There were no written rectification suggestions, they just listed the problems for us."
"This is clearly an attempt to make things difficult for me."
Lin Fan feigned an indignant tone.
"They have independent law enforcement authority over fire protection; it's not under our direct jurisdiction."
"Although I am the county party secretary, I cannot directly intervene, lest I give others grounds for criticism."
Zhao Hanyu thought for a moment, then sighed.
This sigh also conveys a message—there's nothing we can do to help.
"I understand Secretary Zhao's difficulties."
Lin Fan sneered inwardly, "So, we can only slowly think of a solution."
If it really doesn't work out by then, Secretary Zhao, you'll have to put in a good word for me with the city party committee leaders.
