Chapter 109 I Bet You Have the Power to Turn Things Around



Wu Changfeng gave a preface.

This left everyone completely baffled.

Many are confused: how can we solve problems without debating them?

There is only one problem.

It's stuck!

How to solve the problem from the process chain?

It's easy for you to talk.

Why don't you try sitting down and talking?

Minister Tang took a drag of his cigarette: "Boss Wu, if you have any insights, just say them."

"If you don't have it, please leave!"

Others also discussed in hushed tones:

"This guy is getting a bit too cocky."

"You know what, Minister Tang is a high-ranking official, but he's not afraid at all."

"He's just pretending! He's not in the industry, he probably doesn't even know how big a transport truck is."

"If you don't give a clear explanation, Director Xue will lose face big time."

"Watching the show, watching the show."

"These days, people talk like charlatans, they all like this kind of mysterious and mystical stuff."

"In my opinion, they're nothing special, we should just kick them out."

Director Xue glanced at Wu Changfeng's calm expression and suddenly felt very reassured.

He sat down directly, leaving the stage to Wu Changfeng.

Wu Changfeng did not propose a solution to the problem.

Instead, he went to Director Sun of the steel mill and asked, "Director Sun, your problem is that you need cheap ore to produce steel in order to meet the steel demand for the tower, right?"

Factory Director Sun nodded: "Indeed, after all, the purchase of the island nation's steel rolling technology was a joint venture between the power and telecommunications sectors."

"Do you have any good ideas?"

Unlike others, Director Sun did not ridicule or mock Wu Changfeng.

On the contrary, they were very polite.

Many of Director Sun's clients are private business owners.

These bosses are all shrewd and calculating.

Be humble and modest in your conduct.

His actions were unexpected and repeatedly praised.

These people think faster than a car engine belt.

Factory Director Sun naturally had some expectations.

But Wu Changfeng changed the subject: "I'd like to ask, can your factory produce T7 carbon steel?"

Factory Director Sun was immediately confused.

What the hell does this have to do with the current problem?

However, Director Sun nodded nonetheless.

Wu Changfeng exclaimed with delight, "That's wonderful! Otherwise, I really wouldn't have been willing to help you."

Minister Tang: ? ? ?

Director Xue: ? ? ?

Mine Manager Ren: ? ? ?

Factory Director Zhao: ? ? ?

What is all this nonsense?!

Even Director Xue couldn't figure out what was wrong with Wu Changfeng.

Ignoring the confused looks on the other people's faces, Wu Changfeng continued to ask, "Director Sun, if we resolve everyone's questions, when I need T7 steel, can you make it into blade blanks?"

"A blank tool?" Factory Director Sun nodded. "That's fine if the requirements aren't too high."

"My requirements aren't high," Wu Changfeng continued. "A discount would be acceptable, wouldn't it?"

Factory Director Sun glanced at Minister Tang.

Minister Tang squinted and nodded.

Factory Director Sun replied, "That's easy to say, it just depends on your abilities."

Wu Changfeng touched his nose: "Then I'll shamelessly take advantage of you."

Wu Changfeng took a deep breath.

He returned to his seat, straightened his posture, and looked at Mine Manager Ren.

He asked, "How many formal workers are there at the Cangxi Iron Mine?"

Manager Ren gave Wu Changfeng a cold look, snorting through his nostrils, too lazy to pay him any attention.

In his eyes, Wu Changfeng was nothing but a clown.

I don't know how Director Xue ended up associating with someone like that.

One of the accompanying staff members replied, "The staff size is around 3,000."

"What about the temporary workers?"

"If you include all the affiliated tertiary industries, it amounts to around 1800."

Wu Changfeng nodded: "In other words, at most, half of the population in Cangxi Iron Mine is unemployed."

The accompanying personnel stammered.

Although I'm unwilling to admit this fact.

But that is indeed the reality.

However, he immediately realized: "You can't calculate it like that. There are also retired workers and students involved."

Wu Changfeng smiled and said, "I don't need to say how many unemployed people are waiting for their parents to take leave and cover for them. Everyone knows the answer."

Wu Changfeng did not point it out.

From a modern perspective, it's unreasonable that an iron mine would require so many people, considering all the miscellaneous tasks involved.

But in this era...

Iron mines not only shoulder the national production task, but also solve the problem of employment.

The people living around the iron ore mine will create a huge siphon effect.

It's not just iron ore; even coal mines are not immune.

According to Wu Changfeng's estimate, there are at least two thousand unemployed people!

Moreover, they are all young or middle-aged people!

Among them are young people whose studies cannot continue.

There are also those who returned from the rural areas due to historical reasons.

This phenomenon exists throughout the country.

The situation will only improve when the private sector develops and absorbs a large amount of idle labor.

Wu Changfeng asked with a smile, "Is maintaining public order a headache? And is the mine under a heavy burden?"

Young people with nothing to do all day long, how can they expect to do well?

The burden goes without saying.

How can the mine management have the nerve to just stand by and do nothing about the people living in poverty in the mining area?

The only thing we can do is use the money to buy rice and oil and give them away to ensure a basic standard of living, right?

Mine Manager Ren snorted coldly. He gave a wry smile: "Boss Wu, what exactly are you trying to say?"

Wu Changfeng waved his hand: "I'm just trying to understand the situation."

"By the way," Wu Changfeng continued, "I am a staunch advocate of independent research and development."

"I believe that if domestically produced equipment is not given an opportunity to be tested, it is a disregard for the country and an irresponsible act towards the country's strategic vision!"
