Chapter 1468: The Prison is Built
After a year and a half, the first private prison in Michigan was finally officially completed.
According to the plan, the first phase of the entire prison is designed to have a capacity of 25,000 inmates, and after the completion of all three phases, the prison can hold more than 100,000 inmates, and the prison will become the largest privately run prison in the entire United States and the world today.
Although this prison has always been planned by Leilani Taylor, when the prison was completed, Chen Geng, who was already the governor of Michigan, did not deny his relationship with the prison, not only attended the inauguration ceremony of the prison in person, but even when asked by reporters about the relationship with the prison, he also generously admitted it......
"Yes, if you insist that I am the owner of this prison, then no problem. β
The reporter didn't expect Chen Geng to admit it so happily, and was stunned for a moment before asking: "But Mr. Fernandez, you are the governor of Michigan......
"I understand what you mean, you want to say that there is a transfer of interests in this, right?" Leilani Taylor took the conversation, and waited viciously for this little broken reporter who didn't know whether to live or die: "Then let me tell you, Mr. Fernandez is only a shareholder of the company, only participates in dividends, not in the management of the company, and I ......"
Pointing at herself, Laylani Taylor said, "I'm the chairman and CEO of the company, understand?"
Don't look at Leilani Taylor's cautious appearance when she is in front of Chen Geng, but as the saying goes, the prime minister's protΓ©gΓ© is still a seven-grade official, with Chen Geng's identity, status, and influence, how can she Leilani Taylor be described as a "protΓ©gΓ©"? To a certain extent, it can even be considered that Ralani Taylor is Chen Geng's "substitute", such a person is not just a "seven-grade official" can be described? When she shows her momentum, even if she is a bigwig of other parties in the United States, she must be given three points.
Poor little reporter, how have you ever seen Leilani Taylor, who was suddenly full of momentum? For a while, she was almost scared to pee, and nodded busily: "Understood...... Got it......"
"Very good," Leilani Taylor gave the other party a "you are sensible" look, and then continued with a smile: "Today is just the completion ceremony of the prison, but whether it can be officially put into use depends on the review of the State Prison Administration, of course, we are very confident in this, because everything in this prison is built according to the standards of national prisons......"
This prison is Fernandez Chen's property, and unless those idiots from the State Penitentiary Administration don't want to do it, even if Fernandez Chen gets a pigsty out, they will definitely sign the qualifying papers!
Many reporters slandered in their hearts, but they did not dare to say it, or even resort to words about this idea......
Democracy?
Freely?
Are you kidding!
You have the power to scold the president, but you scold the capital to try?
You have the freedom to scold capital, capital has the freedom to send you to prison for three years, and you have the freedom to let the brakes of your car fail.
........................
After sending off the reporters, the rest were all his own people, Chen Geng was not polite to everyone, and after sitting down in the conference room, he first said to Curtis Knutson: "Mr. Curtis?"
Curtis Knutson was excited and nodded hurriedly: "Boss." β
"Mr. Curtis, when I invited you to come, I promised you that as long as what you do satisfies us, I will not be stingy with you, and now, I have seen your efforts, so I will confirm with you again," Looking at Curtis Knutson, Chen Geng asked, "Are you willing to serve as the deputy general manager of the National Reeducation Group, assist Miss Leilani Taylor in managing and running the group's mistakes, and also serve as the warden of the group's No. 1 prison?"
After speaking, without waiting for Curtis Knutson to speak, Chen Geng continued: "If you agree, the salary offered to you by the company is an annual salary of $100,000 and an annual dividend of 0.2% from the First Prison Group. β
"I do, I do!" Curtis Knutson nodded, he had been waiting for this sentence for a long time.
If the annual salary of 100,000 made Curtis Knutson happy, then the 0.2% annual dividend of Prison No. 1 made his head dizzy: did the boss really give me a stake in the company?
Although Curtis Knutsson understands that this is only a dividend right, not a voting right, Curtis Knutson is already very satisfied: 0.2% only, what voting rights do you want.
"Very good," Curtis Knutson's reaction was all expected by Chen Geng, he smiled and nodded: "In addition, Curtis, the communication with the State Penitentiary Administration will be entrusted to you...... I hope that our prison will be up and running as soon as possible, and that there will be many people throughout Detroit who will be pointing to our prison for dinner. β
"No problem, I will do it as soon as possible," Curtis Cnutson did not have any doubts about whether the State Penitentiary Administration would sign the acceptance documents in the shortest possible time, and he immediately nodded: "In addition, I will also implement the matter of providing prisoners with opportunities to learn labor skills as soon as possible." β
The so-called "providing prisoners with opportunities to learn labor skills" is to let workers learn a skill, and to put it more bluntly, it is to let prisoners become free labor.
Why did Chen Geng put this prison near the city of Detroit?
It's not because Detroit is the Motor City of the United States, there is a developed industrial manufacturing industry, and the prison can help some of the companies to "OEM", as for the price, of course, it is very low, after all, a prisoner can only get a subsidy of 19 US dollars a month - you are here to learn work skills, and you are not here to work, of course there will be no salary, it would be nice to have a subsidy, right?
At this point, Chen Geng admires the pioneers of private prisons, such as CCA and GEO, who speak so beautifully and soundingly about the exploitation of prisoners' labor.
Chen Geng responded, very satisfied with Curtis Knutson's performance, this is really a smart person. After a deep sigh, Chen Geng continued: "As for the rest, I have nothing to say, I am very satisfied with everyone's performance during this time, and everyone has also proved to me your excellence through this period of outstanding performance, gentlemen, as you heard, I am not a stingy person, as long as you work hard and perform well, I will not be stingy with bonuses!"
