Chapter 383: Strike Incident
The storm of the dismissals had just begun, and the next morning, the entrance of the industrial park was full of American workers.
"Resist deep space technology!"
"Strongly protest the expulsion of American workers from Deep Space Technology!"
"It's discrimination!"
"Strike, we want to strike, we want unions, we want power!"
"All workers, everyone unites to strike and refuse to work for unscrupulous Chinese!"
Reporters were taking pictures and interviewing, and Aitch and others were strongly complaining about the "unfair treatment" they had suffered. Even Rogham of the Ohio Workers' Union came and said to the camera: "The union union will not let this continue to happen, we will hold a union vote tomorrow!"
When Meng Xiaobai's car entered, some workers came forward to stop it, shouting for a strike.
"Mr. Meng, more than sixty percent of the workers in the factory are on strike today!" As soon as Meng Xiaobai entered the office, Ke Yang came to report, "Are we too strict, do we want to appease them?"
"Don't worry, they're trying to force us to back down with public opinion right now. Meng Xiaobai said, "How is the debugging of industrial robots?"
"Almost, most of the operating stations can be replaced by robots. Ke Yang said, "The workers don't know that once the industrial robots are fully replaced, our recruitment plan will be suspended, and many people will be fired." ”
Originally, the industrial park planned to hire more than 100,000 employees, but the recruitment was suspended because of the labor union.
"That's not right. Meng Xiaobai said, "We can bear the loss of a day or two of shutdown, since they are on strike, they will simply stop work and replace industrial robots completely." Let the workers make their own choices, if they cooperate with us, they can continue to work, and if they don't, they will all be dismissed!"
"Mr. Meng, this is ...... We're probably going to lay off more than 10,000 people!
"Long pain is better than short pain, you have to resign!" Meng Xiaobai ordered.
……
"What, how dare they resign?" said Edge, surprised when he heard the news. Yesterday, Meng Xiaobai fired a hundred people at a time, and he felt incredible.
Today, Deep Space Technology has laid off more people, who are not afraid of strikes at all, and want to work with the workers?
This is still an unprecedented thing in this country, if the workers all go on strike, don't they want to open their factories?
"So far, there are more than 5,000 people, and they are still issuing dismissal notices......," his cronies said in horror, "almost all of the people who participated in the strike have been fired! It may reach more than 10,000!"
"Fired more than 10,000 people? Are they crazy?" Aiqi didn't expect Deep Space Technology to dare to make this decision, more than 10,000 people, but the main force of the industrial park. Many workers have been trained by deep space technology for several months.
Without them, how would this industrial park be produced? How would the upcoming sale of Deep Space Technology's American products proceed?
Just for the sake of these disputes, do they want to give up this industrial park with an investment of tens of billions?
"Edge, we've been fired, what's going on?" some of the workers came to question Edge.
"Didn't you promise that we would never be fired? Now we've all been fired, we've lost our jobs, you know?" Some of the workers were quite emotional, because they knew in their hearts that this job was important to them.
If you want to find such a good job again, I'm afraid it's hard!
"Don't panic, I've already appointed a lawyer to sue them!" Aitch quickly explained.
"If the prosecution fails, who will bear our losses?" the workers did not relent, "just to give us a raise for what you said, and we lost our jobs!"
"Hell, I shouldn't have believed this guy on strike in the first place!"
"I have to go to the supervisor, I'm sorry, I don't want to lose my job, I want to strike, you go on strike! I have two children to raise!" Some of the workers have already left the ranks of the strike march and are trying to find a way to intercede with the supervisor.
"Don't panic, everyone, tomorrow the union will be formed, and I will ask to hire you again!" Edges said hurriedly, "Without all of us, they won't be able to work!"
However, his words were very weak, because Deep Space Technology was very determined to dismiss these troublemakers, no matter how many of them there were.
The workers in the factory got the news and were secretly glad.
"I said they shouldn't have done that! Especially the union idiots, believe me, I've been working in factories for more than 20 years, and unions never help workers! They just make things worse!"
"It's a good thing I didn't go on strike, otherwise this job would have been gone!"
"Well, I've been telling Della not to strike, just for the sake of those guys' blank promises...... Just now she called and cried, saying that she had been fired and was probably going to live on the streets......"
"Tomorrow's vote, we must not allow the union to be formed, otherwise we will all lose our jobs!"
"Yes, the owner here is not bad. In good conscience, the treatment here is better than the three factories I've been in before! And their machines are automated, so we don't have to do as much manual labor. ”
More and more workers are realizing that they must not allow trade unions to be formed tomorrow, or they will lose such valuable jobs.
The news of the one-time dismissal of more than 10,000 workers in the Deep Space Science and Technology Industrial Park was on the news poll on the same day.
State legislators and members of the Labor Relations Commission criticized in local Ohio newspapers: "The behavior of deep space science and technology has seriously harmed the legitimate rights and interests of American workers, and they are qualified to strike and defend their rights! The Ohio Lao Tzu Relations Committee will investigate deep space science and technology on this matter, and once the situation is judged to be true, deep space science and technology will be punished accordingly!"
Even well-known American media such as the New York Times, the Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg have publicly expressed strong criticism of the behavior of deep space technology, and the lawyer entrusted by Aitch has also claimed that it will sue deep space technology and demand financial compensation from the more than 10,000 workers.
On the Internet, a large number of netizens have launched public opinion attacks on deep space technology.
"Do these Chinese people think that the United States is the same as China? Our workers must have unions and rights!"
"Boycott them, and wait for the release of Deep Space Technology's products, I will never buy them!"
"Yes, everyone boycott together, let them get out of the United States!"
"I really don't understand, how such a garbage company can beat Apple abroad and Google them!"
"It's better to fine them billions of dollars!
"Let's unite and form a union to teach them a lesson!"
