◎First update◎
When Chen Yong recognized his son's voice, his face froze and he quickly looked at his secretary Xiao Fang.
Secretary Fang had been following him for many years, so he understood what he meant with just one look. He quickly left the cafeteria and ran to the radio station.
But the voice from the loud speaker continued, and Chen Siming's angry voice was heard everywhere in the National Cotton Mill. "I have money now, you know? The director of the purchasing office is gone, so it's gone. I don't care! I have money now, five thousand yuan, a full five thousand yuan!"
Upon hearing this number, everyone who was eating in the cafeteria gasped. Chen Yong's face turned pale and he clenched his fists tightly. The leadership team and the Revolutionary Committee opposite him remained silent.
"I can be a half-millionaire now. What can I not buy in the future? I can get so much money just by signing a contract to purchase low-quality cotton. I can buy whatever I want. How much can I earn working in the factory for a month? I wonder who will dare to look down on me in the future!" Chen Siming vented his anger and looked at Liang Baozhen who was standing aside with an indifferent expression. He felt angry. This person seemed to have no idea how powerful he was. He actually chose a worker. "ba..."
"Um..." Secretary Fang rushed all the way to the radio station, stepped forward, covered his mouth, pulled him out of the radio station, and then went into the house to look for the switch button.
He didn't say anything, but signaled Liang Baozhen with his eyes. Liang Baozhen was already very satisfied, so she didn't delay and moved her index finger forward, dialed the number lightly, and finally turned off the phone.
The faint sound of the electric current disappeared quietly as the microphone was turned off. At the same time, the silent cafeteria was filled with the sound of discussion.
"No more?"
"Hey guys, did I hear you right? Five thousand dollars?"
"Did Chen Siming really accept bribes?"
"Didn't they say they were going to hold an investigation meeting this afternoon? I heard it wasn't him who did it, and they punished one of his purchasing agents. Why did he admit it on the radio now?"
"What else can I do? I'll just be your scapegoat!"
Chen Siming's account of his crimes on the radio was heard by people from cotton mills across the country. The leadership team, which had just finished an investigation meeting, looked at Chen Yong's face, and everyone looked at each other in silence.
There seemed to be ice in front of the table, the atmosphere was heavy, and everyone was waiting for Chen Yong to speak.
Finally, it was Deputy Factory Manager Wu Bingnian who broke the silence. He looked normal, but with a hint of smile in the corner of his eyes, "Everyone, eat the food first. If you don't eat now, it will get cold."
Chen Yong's Adam's apple rolled, and his thick eyelids closed. When he opened his eyes again, there was a fierce look in his eyes. He slowly spoke, "The director of the Procurement Office, Chen Siming, knowingly committed a crime and accepted bribes, damaging the interests of the National Cotton Mill. After the incident, he pushed all the responsibilities onto others and deceived the leadership team that trusted him. His nature is extremely bad. Let the Revolutionary Committee and the Public Security Bureau handle this matter."
Chen Yong weighed the pros and cons in just a few minutes, and ultimately had no choice but to cut off his own son.
......
The National Cotton Mill has been in turmoil recently. It has encountered frequent problems since the beginning of the new year. First, the equipment kept having problems, and then Chen Siming was reported. Originally, the person who was arrested was a buyer from the Purchasing Office, but in the end, Chen Siming was caught on the radio and confessed his crimes one by one.
The workers have been fed up with the gossip these days, and the first thing they ask when they meet is, "Did you hear about it?"
"Sister Baozhen, have you heard about it?" Wang Xin came to the factory office to do some work and just took the opportunity to reminisce with Liang Baozhen. The factory office must be more informed than the workshop. "Chen Siming was really taken away by the Revolutionary Committee and the Public Security Bureau. They said they would conduct a strict investigation."
"This time the factory director can't save him either."
"Sister Baozhen, why was he at the radio station that day?" Wang Xin, like many other workers, was puzzled as to why Chen Siming said these words at the radio station.
Liang Baozhen had prepared her speech. "I was preparing a report on this matter that day. Comrade Chen Siming was upset and felt that it was too embarrassing to announce his dismissal to the whole factory, so he argued with me. Later, I don't know what I said was wrong, but he started talking to himself like crazy. He looked very excited. I guess he turned on the microphone in the confusion."
"Ah!" Wang Xin was immersed in Chen Siming's shamelessness for a while, and then felt that he deserved it! "Anyway, it's a good thing in the end. Now we just wait for him to be punished for doing such a shameless thing! I just don't know how he will be dealt with."
Also not sure how Chen Siming will be treated is his biological mother Guo Mingli.
Upon learning that her second son was arrested for taking bribes, Guo Mingli sat paralyzed on the sofa. When she saw Chen Yong returning home, she rushed over to him.
"Chen Yong, you can't even protect your own son?" Guo Mingli knew that taking bribes was a serious crime, and five thousand yuan was not a small amount. Siming was afraid that he would be in trouble this time! Thinking that her son, a young man with great ambitions, would become a bad element despised by everyone, she felt a pang of pain in her heart!
The look in her eyes when she looked at her man was also filled with hatred.
"How could Siming be captured? Go and save him!"
Chen Yong tugged at the hem of his shirt impatiently, and then he felt a little more breathable. He had planned everything well to get Chen Siming out and keep his son safe, but who knew he would be such a loser!
"Go ask your son what he did?" Chen Yong's throat was smoking and veins were bulging. "It's fine if he accepted bribes, but he didn't do anything smart and was discovered! I arranged everything for him, but this idiot said everything on the radio! How can I save this guy?"
If you don't cut it off, you will only get yourself into trouble!
Chen Yong believes that all the decisions he makes are the most correct.
Guo Mingli looked at Chen Yong and laughed bitterly, "So? You really don't care about Siming anymore? He's your son!"
"Dad! Please save Siming!" Dong Jiayan didn't care too much at the moment. She couldn't believe that Chen Siming, who had such a glorious past life, would be taken away by the police in this life. How could she hold her head up in the future? Her good days were gone, and she would be looked down upon by the villagers in the future!
Chen Yong used to be so stern that she didn't dare to talk to her father-in-law easily. But this time she risked her life and begged with her mother-in-law.
"Siming must know that he is wrong. Please save him, Dad!" Dong Jiayan rushed to Chen Yong, crying with her body slightly bent.
Listening to the quarrel between the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law, Chen Yong felt a sharp pain in his temples and heard the noise. He pushed away Dong Jiayan who was blocking his way and said to Guo Mingli, "You are so used to it. It's better to teach him a lesson this time!"
Having said that, he stormed out of the house in anger.
"Chen Yong, you are so vicious. You don't even care about your own son?" Guo Mingli's face was covered with tears and she looked at the man's back as he resolutely left.
"Mom." The eldest son Chen Sixian watched for a long time, and finally couldn't bear it when he saw his mother was heartbroken.
"Sixian!" Guo Mingli seemed to have grasped the last straw and tightly pulled her eldest son's arm, "Save your brother. How can Siming go to jail? Sixian, you can't just stand by and watch him die."
Chen Sixian felt the strength of his mother's grip on his arm and his heart ached. He nodded. He wondered if he and his brother had switched places and it was him who was taken to the police station today, would his mother be so sad and beg for help everywhere?
"Okay! Sixian, now neither mom nor your brother can be relied on. I can only rely on you!"
There was a rare hint of kindness in Guo Mingli's eyes as she looked at her eldest son.
...
Chen Yong left the building where the officials of the National Cotton Mill lived, walked through several alleys and came to a secluded place.
As the night deepens, a family building on the outskirts of the city exudes a lonely atmosphere.
This is his other residence.
Chen Yong walked up the wooden stairs to the top floor, pushed open the door and went in, just in time to see the charming beauty leaning on the sofa in the room.
When Chen Yulian heard the door open, she just raised her eyelids to take a look, then went back to playing with the telephone cord in her hand.
——
Chen Yong calmed down and started to prepare to deal with the Revolutionary Committee and the Public Security Bureau the next day. Chen Siming's case was more serious, but the sentencing results could also be divided into different levels of severity. Needless to say, there were twists and turns here.
Nowadays, corruption and bribery are serious crimes, and Chen Siming might be sent to prison. No matter for the reputation of the Chen family or his own future, Chen Siming cannot be sentenced.
After four dinner parties and a big reunion at Hongtashan cigarettes, Chen Yong heard that his eldest son Chen Sixian was also busy.
The father and son have different approaches. Chen Sixian seems to have hooked up with the city leaders, which surprised Chen Yong.
...
A week later, the news that Chen Siming was sent to labor reform spread throughout the National Cotton Mill.
The workers who were eating in the cafeteria heard the emotional broadcast by announcer Liang Baozhen on the radio.
"Comrade Chen Siming, director of the National Cotton Mill's Purchasing Office, accepted bribes and purchased inferior cotton. He was dismissed from his post and handed over to the Revolutionary Committee and the Municipal Public Security Bureau for handling. Considering that he was deceived and had a good attitude in admitting his guilt, he was finally sentenced to two years of labor reform. I hope that the majority of employees will learn from this. The National Cotton Mill is determined to protect the interests of the mill and all employees and will never tolerate such evil Russian behavior."
Sitting in the office, listening to the radio broadcast outside the window, even a tough guy like Chen Yong could not help but sigh when he saw his son end up like this.
After the dust settled, Chen Yong remembered what Chen Siming had said on the radio when he confessed his crimes.
He asked Secretary Fang, "Xiao Fang, who was at the radio station that day? Why did Siming say those words, and how did they get broadcast?"
He had been drinking a lot these past few days. Those people in the Revolutionary Committee were not easy to deal with. They forced him to drink heavily. Now he still had a dull pain in his temples.
"Director, when I rushed to the radio station that day, only Siming and the broadcaster Liang Baozhen were in the room. According to Liang Baozhen, Siming went to pester her, and he went crazy and talked nonsense, and even touched the radio switch..."
"Liang Baozhen?" Chen Yong read the familiar name, thinking of the origins of this female comrade, Chen Siming and his family. He rubbed his brows, feeling that something was wrong.
"Bring her here, I'll ask her what's going on." Chen Yong's eyes flashed with ruthlessness, "If someone deliberately plotted against Siming, we must not let them off lightly."
