"ABC World News" is one of the national television networks of the United States, ABC's flagship news program, this program usually focuses on governments, the international community, human disasters, military wars, diseases and plagues, since its inception, has been the favorite program of many people in the United States.

In many cases, in order to obtain a more direct interview effect, ABC News often invites some commentators and ** parties to do live broadcasts, and today, February 12, two employees of the former RCA Taiwan branch were invited to the stage.

The programs on TV soon began, and World News, as a well-known program, usually had a 20-second news title and would keep flashing various international **, many of which were related to today's follow-up topics.

Today, these 20 seconds show a lot of marine garbage pollution, black rivers, billowing smoke chimneys, and countless seabirds trapped in oil, and the first feeling is that today's topic should be the environment.

Peter James, as the chief anchor of the TV station, has already planned what he wants to report today, and after the live broadcast began, Peter smiled and said to the live camera: "Good evening my dear viewers, this is ABC World News, and I am your favorite Peter!"

Since our human beings entered the industrial civilization, industrial development and environmental protection have always been an opposing issue.

In 1943, there was photochemical smog in Los Angeles**.

In 1948, Donora broke out in Pennsylvania**.

These have caused thousands of casualties, and countless more people suffer from cancer every year due to environmental pollution, so our entrepreneurs have come up with a great way to move factories to other countries and pollute other places!

Today's guest is David Klein, the deputy director of RCA's Wanwan factory, and today he will tell all the audience a big secret!"

David Klein took the microphone and said: "The secret I want to tell everyone today is that it is a man-made pollution, RCA's Taoyuan plant in Wanwan is the core factory of its main production of color picture tubes, which requires a large number of chemical reagents, such as paint, cleaning solvents, glues, plastic stains, industrial oils, rust inhibitors, chip liquids, etc.

With RCA's financial resources, it is possible to install a set of sewage equipment in the local area, but in order to save costs, they just buy a second-hand sewage treatment equipment, and then only turn it on when the local environmental protection department comes to inspect it, and the rest of the time all the sewage is maliciously discharged. ”

Peter picked up the topic and asked, "How long has RCA been doing this?"

David replied, "It started in 1973 and has been nearly seven years now. ”

Peter asked: "That's strange, according to my company, the RCA factory in Wanwan is a very large enterprise, if it has been discharging sewage for all these years, so much chemical sewage will inevitably pollute the local water quality, and the surrounding people and the local environmental protection department can't be ignorant of it?"

David said: "That's where RCA comes in, because even if the average company wants to secretly discharge the wastewater, they will secretly install a pipe and secretly discharge the wastewater into the river at night.

However, this trick is not suitable for RCA, because the scale of the factory is too large, so much sewage is discharged into the river, and it is estimated that it will be found the next day, so they have drilled a dozen holes hundreds of meters deep in their own factory, and every morning in the early morning, all the sewage is pumped into the ground, so that no one knows where these pollutants go!"

"Going underground?" Peter said, "As far as I know, many parts of Asia have the habit of using groundwater, and if the sewage goes underground, the consequences are ......."

"That's right!" David said indignantly: "Although I have been working in Wanwan for 3 years, I have always been in charge of production, and I only found out about this by chance, this kind of behavior is more hateful than murder, I refuse not to be with these people, but in order to collect evidence, I stayed in the factory for a few months, and finally took some key photos." ”

After speaking, he took out a lot of photos from his pocket and put them in front of the camera one by one, this pile of photos belongs to continuous photos, end to end, and if you look closely, you will find that it is a group of workers who pump a large number of liquids of different colors into a white pipe at night, and the end of the white pipe is connected to the ground, and a half-human-sized pump next to it has been shown to be in working condition.

David said: "Many people may think that these photos may be fake, but there is one evidence that cannot be eliminated when the president comes, that is, the water quality in the local underground of Taoyuan City, RCA will discharge tens of thousands of tons of sewage into the ground every year, as long as the local government pumps out the underground water, you can get the answer!"

……

The later show is still about this topic, but more about the details of pollution, but for some people at the moment, the follow-up details are no longer important!

……

RCA is a company that has been established for more than 70 years, and the response speed of the public relations department is also very fast, and before the ABC news is over, this sudden ** has been reported to RCA CEO Thornton Brad.

The emergency meeting was quickly convened, and in less than half an hour, the RCA's top brass in New York was largely gathered.

The name of David Brian, who was interviewed by ABC Evening News, joined the RCA in '65, was dispatched to the Wanwan Taoyuan factory in '74, and has been working as a production engineer, and was promoted to deputy director of the company at the beginning of last year, but I don't know why he suddenly resigned in October last year, and the branch also retained, but finally let him leave. At the meeting, the secretary gave a detailed presentation of the information that was currently known.

Brad didn't care about the identity of the leaker, but asked, "Is this true?

The expressions of the people at the meeting were different, some people shook their heads slightly, watching the performance of others, and some just frowned and looked at the documents in front of them.

"Bastard!" Brad said for the first time in such a big temper, "I know that our factories overseas have some pollution problems, but no matter how much we save costs, we can't discharge sewage into the ground so directly, who came up with this idea in the first place?"

"It doesn't matter who came up with it, it matters who approves it. The white-haired old man on the side said that he was a shareholder of the company, but he didn't care about the angry CEO.

"Now there is no point in finding out who did it, the most important thing at the moment is to deal with this matter and minimize the impact. A member of the meeting said.

Brad breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Immediately order the staff of the factory in Wanwan to ask them to take the initiative to report this ** to the local Environmental Protection Agency, even if they can't reach a consensus for the time being, they must find a way to let the factory continue to operate, and in addition, immediately arrange for all American personnel to return to China."

Hold a press conference immediately, invite several internationally renowned environmental organizations, and invite them to go to the local site to investigate, no matter what the future does, we must be fair now. ”

"Understood!" the secretary immediately jotted down.
