However, such an ordinary murder case seemed insignificant amidst the major upheaval in the local business community and municipal government.
A week passed in the blink of an eye. For some, too much had happened this week, with every day changing rapidly. But for Lu Feng, the week was quite pleasant.
Besides calling the company every day to inquire about routine matters, Jiafeng Electronics has recently been thrust into the spotlight again due to a worker's arm being severed by a violation of regulations, and the compensation being skimmed off by several senior executives.
Zhang Fengxia only mentioned this matter to Lu Feng, and she took full responsibility for handling it. She spent the rest of her time chatting with Jiang Xiaoyan, and the two of them were very affectionate, like they were in the throes of a passionate romance.
Especially recently, the cosmetics factory has been doing well, earning over 100,000 yuan last month. Jiang Xiaoyan excitedly tells Lu Feng about it every day, and even says she wants to become an entrepreneur who surpasses him.
Hearing her ambitious words, Lu Feng was pleased and praised her, saying that as long as his wife was capable, he would have no problem doing laundry and cooking at home.
The turmoil has temporarily subsided. Today is the signing ceremony for Jiafeng Electronics' establishment in the industrial park, as well as a press conference. Many people are present.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Lu Feng, dressed in a brand-new suit, stepped into the hotel. He first held a meeting with He Jiale and his group to confirm some specific terms, including the arrival time of the interest-free loan, the payment method, the ownership of the factory area, the ownership of subsequent construction, and the use of foreign exchange quotas.
Jiafeng Electronics provides the machine model and the company to which it belongs. The local authorities will report this to the provincial level, and a unified application will be submitted in November for unified international procurement negotiations.
The advantage of this is that the orders are large, so we can negotiate lower prices. The country doesn't have much foreign exchange, and we're struggling financially.
At 10:00 a.m., as the host began the event, everyone entered the venue one after another. Naturally, He Jiale spoke first, and talked for half an hour about the development of local manufacturing industry, the benefits of introducing Jiafeng Electronics, expectations for the future, how much economic impact it can have, and how many jobs it can create.
"Next, please welcome Mr. Lu Feng, Chairman of Jiafeng Electronics, to the stage to speak!"
Sparse applause rang out as Lu Feng stepped onto the stage and said, "Respected leaders, friends from the press, good morning. I am very pleased to attend this signing ceremony. Jiafeng Electronics has come a long way to reach where it is today and is about to take a new step. We need a large-scale factory, not only to produce Weipuda TVs, but also to bring more high-quality electronic products to everyone in the near future."
Lu Feng talked about the development of Jiafeng Electronics, boasting about some data, such as being number one in the region, having the lowest prices, and the best after-sales service, only mentioning the good points.
"Now, please both parties formally sign the contract!"
Lu Feng sat down and opened the red folder in front of him. The hostess next to him held a tray with a pen on it. He picked up the pen and signed his name.
After both parties signed, they exchanged documents with He Jiale, which was met with another round of applause.
"Friends from the press, do you have any questions?"
As soon as the host said this, many people in the audience surged forward, all pointing their fingers at Lu Feng.
"How do you respond to the issue of Jiafeng Electronics' compensation being withheld? That worker has an elderly mother and a baby crying for food. After he collapsed, the breadwinner of his family was gone."
"Jiafeng Electronics' non-standard production practices led to this tragedy. After the new factory is built, will the safety of workers still not be guaranteed?"
"The compensation was embezzled at every level, and some people say you instructed it. Now many people are saying you are a capitalist. What do you think?"
Lu Feng's expression darkened at the barrage of questions. He stared at the reporters, whose noses were indeed very sensitive. He hadn't wanted to answer, but he still said, "This matter is being handled properly. The worker was operating in violation of regulations. We will strengthen training, the compensation has been paid in full, and the relevant responsible persons are being investigated."
"Alright, that concludes today's signing ceremony. Thank you all for participating!" the host said, holding the microphone.
Lu Feng stood up and walked out, but a large group of reporters blocked his way.
Why is Jiafeng Electronics always able to acquire land and various forms of funding?
"Would you mind telling me what your parents do?"
"President Lu, can you explain why you always manage to get the best terms? This time, Jiafeng Electronics' factory is practically given away for free, along with a large sum of money. Were you involved in any under-the-table deals before? Are you still involved now?"
"No comment!"
Lu Feng waved his hand and walked directly towards the car, with Ye Wusheng blocking him from behind. These reporters were definitely hired to annoy Lu Feng.
Once in the car, the driver stepped on the gas, and the car sped away. When they passed a bank, Lu Feng told the driver to stop. He was out of money and needed to buy a plane ticket or something, so he needed to withdraw some pocket money.
After getting out of the car and just entering the bank, a girl walked towards him. She was dressed in a somewhat glamorous way, and Lu Feng glanced at her!
"White plum blossoms?"
Lu Feng looked at her in disbelief!
