"Ziyue, what's going on?"
Chen Xiaobao hurried over and frowned when he saw this scene.
In order to meet the construction deadline, Dongsheng Group has a lot of workers on the construction site, more than a thousand people. Now all of these more than a thousand workers are on strike.
"They are demanding a wage increase. If they don't, they will all go on strike!"
Chen Ziyue said with an unpleasant face.
It is not easy to manage a large group company. Chen Ziyue has to worry about various affairs in the company, and she also has to worry about things on the construction site. The group is big, and there are too many things to do.
"A pay raise?"
Chen Xiaobao frowned.
"That's right. If you give us a raise, we will continue to work here. If you don't raise our wages, no one will work for you!" Several foremen said arrogantly.
“How much of a salary increase do you want?”
Chen Xiaobao asked.
"Double your wages. The weather is so hot right now. We workers earn our money through hard work. Is it not too much to ask you to double your wages?"
A foreman sneered.
"Who ordered you?"
Chen Xiaobao looked at him calmly and suddenly asked.
The welfare benefits provided to workers at Dongsheng Group's construction sites are better than those at other construction sites. Even the wages are 20 to 30 percent higher than those at some large construction sites. It is impossible for the workers to suddenly quit their jobs for no reason.
Even if someone stops working here because of something else, it is impossible for all workers to quit at the same time.
If so many workers quit at the same time, there must be someone organizing it.
"Haha, since you asked, it doesn't hurt to tell you. It was arranged by President Zhou. You offended someone, and this is the result!" The foreman did not intend to hide it, and said directly, "The boss asked me to tell you something. This is the provincial capital. There is no benefit in offending the Zhou family!"
This contractor doesn't know President Zhou at all. He is not at that level yet. Behind the contractor is a boss, and behind the boss is a bigger boss.
That is the level of contact with Governor Zhou.
President Zhou is the president of the Central Province branch of Citibank. The Zhou family has been doing business in the provincial capital for many years, and their network of relationships is definitely more complicated than that of Chen Xiaobao and Chen Ziyue.
Besides, Governor Zhou suffered such a huge loss last time and failed to achieve his goal, so they will definitely not give up.
Although Chen Xiaobao has a relationship with Fang Yuqiong, which makes President Zhou wary, capital is greedy. As long as the benefits are big enough, they are even willing to sell the noose to hang themselves. Moreover, President Zhou has the support of JPMorgan Chase and Sequoia Capital, so he is confident that he can have a chance with Chen Xiaobao.
"It's him. He's so shameless!"
Chen Ziyue's pretty face turned pale with anger. She didn't expect President Zhou to be so shameless.
"Shamelessness and greed are the mottos of these capitalists!" Chen Xiaobao said calmly, "You can leave now!"
"Boss Chen, you've been good to us, and we're not heartless, but if we want to make it in the provincial capital, there are some people we can't afford to offend, so please forgive us!"
The contractor looked at Chen Xiaobao in surprise. He originally thought that Chen Xiaobao would not let them leave so easily. But now he admired Chen Xiaobao and Chen Ziyue. These two young people were people who could do big things. Unlike them, money was more important to them than their parents.
The contractor bowed and left without saying anything else.
One bus after another picked up all the workers at the Dongsheng Group's construction site.
The busy construction site fell into silence in an instant.
"Mr. Chen, what should we do? The construction delay will have a serious impact on the product supply chain!" A company executive hurried over and said anxiously.
The Black Jade Ointment is selling so well right now that suppliers and major hospitals have placed orders for one year into the future. If the new factory is not built and put into production in time, the entire supply chain will be greatly affected.
"Don't worry, contact other labor companies first to see if you can hire workers. Use your connections to find them!" Chen Ziyue gritted her teeth. She was not someone who would give in easily, so she immediately started making phone calls to make arrangements.
Many executives of Dongsheng Group started making phone calls, and Chen Ziyue also mobilized her personal connections to start looking for workers. But after a round of calls, they either said directly that there were no workers, or hinted that Chen Ziyue had offended someone and that someone had warned them not to provide workers to the Dongsheng Group's construction site, and there was nothing they could do.
In a word, there are workers, but they will not be introduced to Dongsheng Group.
Even if we find some small contractors and dozens or hundreds of workers, it will be of no use at all.
"Fight with me, I want to see how this guy dies!"
At the same time, in an office building opposite the Dongsheng Group's construction site, President Zhou was watching this scene with a sneer and a smug look on his face.
Fang Yuqiong is so powerful that with just one phone call he can get the presidents of the four major banks to lend money to Dongsheng Group. He can't afford to offend her.
But so what? He is no match for his opponent in a head-on confrontation, so he might as well attack from the side and use some tricks. He wants to see if Chen Xiaobao encounters any problems. Then he would call Fang Yuqiong every time, and Fang Yuqiong would help Chen Xiaobao every time.
The problems that occurred at the construction site today are just an appetizer. As long as Chen Ziyue wants to set up a factory in the provincial capital, he has plenty of ways to mess with Dongsheng Group.
He is playing dirty tricks. Why do the young couple Chen Xiaobao and Chen Ziyue have the right to fight him?
President Zhou was very proud. He had already made it known that no construction team in the provincial capital would take on Dongsheng Group's business. At least for a few weeks, Dongsheng Group's construction site would not be able to start work.
Even if the construction of Dongsheng Group starts, he has a backup plan.
After the construction of Dongsheng Group started, he arranged for people to sneak in and create one or two accidents. As long as someone died on the construction site, the construction would have to be stopped and rectified. By then, as long as the incident got a little bigger, it would be impossible for Dongsheng Group to start construction in a short time.
Nowadays, it is not easy to help others, but it is very easy to ruin others' things.
"I can't find any workers. They've all been told off. No one wants to come to the Dongsheng Group's construction site!"
Chen Ziyue made a few phone calls and said helplessly.
"Shanhe Group has workers, but they are of varying quality and their composition is rather complicated. I'm worried there might be problems if I bring them over!" Chen Xiaobao was also considering it.
The Shanhe Group is experiencing a period of instability. Most of the contractors in the group used to be gangsters. Not only are they not clean, they are also not trustworthy.
Unless it is absolutely necessary, Chen Xiaobao does not want to have any connection between Shanhe Group and Dongsheng Group for the time being.
"Then let's wait and see. If we can't find workers, we can only ask the workers from Shanhe Group to come over!" Chen Ziyue said helplessly.
People from Shanhe Group had caused trouble before, which left Chen Ziyue with a very bad impression of them. Now she also knew the situation of Shanhe Group, and she didn't want to let people from Shanhe Group come unless it was absolutely necessary.
"Let me make a phone call!"
Chen Xiaobao suddenly said.
