Jinan.

At ten o'clock in the evening, the heavy rain was still pouring down, and there was no intention of stopping. Lightning sliced through the sky, like strangely shaped flares, lighting up the rainy night from time to time.

In such a ghost weather, most people turn off the lights and TVs early and fall asleep in the bed.

However, the provincial government building was still brightly lit.

In the conference room, the big leader Zu Qingsheng's face was solemn.

Listening to the constant ringing of the phone and the chaotic footsteps outside the door, he knocked on the table.

"Comrades, due to the typhoon in the coastal areas, the widespread thunderstorms and heavy rain in our province have lasted for two whole days. This time, the extreme bad weather hit most of the province, with Jinan and Liaocheng being the epicenters of the thunderstorm. In the afternoon, the Provincial Meteorological Bureau sent a message that since yesterday evening, the province has had a total of more than 20,000 ground lightning bolts, including Jinan alone, there have been 6,689 times of ground lightning statistics!

From yesterday to 8 o'clock this evening, nine counties and cities in the northwest and central and western parts of Shandong have experienced heavy rain of more than 50 millimeters. In Liaocheng, the rainfall has reached 233.3 mm, which has caused serious damage!

And just now, the Meteorological Bureau has determined that the current situation has reached the orange warning level. Now, I officially announce the activation of the Level IV Early Warning Defense Emergency Plan!

Here, I ask you to complete the disaster prevention work at all costs, minimize the impact of the flood disaster that is very likely to occur, and do your utmost to ensure the safety of the people's lives and property!"

"Understood, Secretary Zu!" The leaders of the various regions who had already arrived stood up and responded.

This time the heavy rain came fiercely, and everyone here already knew it.

The heavy rain for more than half a month some time ago has caused different degrees of waterlogging in many areas of the province.

A week ago, many reservoirs and rivers in the province had reached dangerous water levels, and if it weren't for the next few sunny days, there would have been a large-scale flood discharge.

No one would have thought that this typhoon would suddenly strengthen and bring such a big impact to the province!

Thief God.

Everyone is scolding their mother in their hearts.

Seeing that his subordinates were standing straight, and their attitude was resolute, just like the soldiers who were carrying explosives to the bunker, the solemnity on Zu Qingsheng's face did not subside.

Motioning for his secretary to close the door, he looked around, his sharp gaze sweeping over everyone's faces.

"I said everything I had just said. Now I'm going to say something that shouldn't be said. ”

Hearing his tone suddenly aggravate, everyone present looked stunned.

"Since the beginning of this year, our province has been in the midst of an unusual drought. There is some laxity in flood prevention in many areas. In some areas, there was no repair and maintenance of the reservoirs and rivers in the jurisdiction in the spring and summer. In fact, some localities have ignored the repeated orders made at the provincial work conference at the beginning of the year, believing that this year is a dry year and that rivers and reservoirs will not be used, and that all the funds allocated for water conservancy will be used elsewhere! I will leave you here, if something really happens in this extreme rainstorm. Half of it is caused by natural disasters, and the other half is caused by man-made disasters!"

In the end, Zu Qingsheng was already roaring.

Seeing that several of the people in the group shrank their necks, Zu Qingsheng's cheeks twitched.

After listening to the report for a day today, Zu Qingsheng actually has a number in his heart. With such heavy rain now, it would certainly be unrealistic to insist that no river in the province would burst its banks and no reservoir would discharge floodwater.

There is not much left to do at the moment, which is nothing more than to buy time for evacuation as much as possible.

But now is clearly not the time to hold accountable.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, he pointed to the door: "From now on, one of you will count one, and you will all go to the front line for me." We'll settle accounts for the rest of the issues after the fall. But if I hear that a village or a tun has lost its life because of the evacuation problem, you ...... See for yourself!"

After speaking, Zu Qingsheng pulled up the coat on the chair, ignored the group of local cadres who were looking at each other, and strode out of the office.

"Secretary Zu, the military region has already put up the embankment in place! However, Chief Wang just called and said that the sandbag stakes to reinforce the embankment are seriously tight, and they don't have enough manpower, so let's hurry up and find a way. ”

As soon as they went out, the two secretaries who had been waiting outside the door stepped forward to report.

Zu Qingsheng waved his hand and ordered to his second secretary Dong Jingguo: "You go and convey it, let all localities mobilize quickly, and be sure to ensure the supply of materials for each section of the embankment!"

"Understood, Secretary Zu!"

After receiving Zu Qingsheng's order, the second secretary trotted away.

……

2nd floor of the city hall building.

Looking at the group of big and small bosses in front of him complaining to himself, Liu Maocai, director of the Municipal United Front Work Department, hated it so much that his teeth itched.

United Front, United Front, Treat to dinner. Tie up with the landlord and contact the bad guys.

On weekdays, Liu Maocai, a private entrepreneur in these provinces, has no less contact.

I usually see these bosses here, and it is also a relationship between brothers and brothers, and they live at the wine table. But as soon as the fuck is down to business, the heads of Donkey Day are shaking like a pendulum, and all the bitter water is left!

Liu Maocai's stomach was about to explode.

Above, but a death order!

"I don't believe it, all your cars are out now? Dozens of logistics companies, can't even get together 500 cars?"

"Director Liu, it's not that we don't cooperate with the work of the province!

Qin Dianguang sat at the conference table, his face pulled together, looking like a wronged old lady.

"You say, the province has suffered a disaster now, those of us who do business, if the conditions permit, can we not contribute? But the reality is here!

Yes, that's right, the company has more than 400 moving cars. Although it has been raining heavily these days, we still have to do business, and most of the cars we have on hand are now running on the road.

Let's talk about what you don't like......

It's the car at home, and our employees are all home and small, so heavy rain, in case there is a long and two short...... It's hard for him to do it, don't you say?"

As one of the top logistics companies in the province, Qin Dianguang showed his attitude, and the others immediately became vassals.

"Yes, Director Liu, I won't tell you that many of our company's cars have been lost for more than ten hours and there has been no news. We don't know where the car is now, we are all native-born, and now it is raining so much, if we can help, then why is there any reason to go back? But now there is no way to do it in him!"

"Yes, yes, there's really no way, Director Liu. ”

Liu Maocai sighed for a long time, tried hard not to slap the table, and said bitterly: "Big guy, now is not the time to think about this! Now the rainfall in Liaocheng has reached more than 200 millimeters, and the rainfall in our Jinan is almost 200 millimeters. Now all the soldiers at the end of the military region have gone to the embankment, and the logistics work has been returned to our place. If something goes wrong, it's not a matter of one or two lives!"

Seeing that Liu Maocai was angry, Qin Dianguang's eyes rolled: "Director Liu, I saw that all of you here are our brothers from Jinan." Well, there are some things that I don't say appropriately. But now the situation is critical...... I don't pay attention to anything. Since the situation in Liaocheng and Jinan is the most critical now, and the situation in other areas is slightly better, why do you ...... Why don't you ask for help somewhere else?"

Speaking of this, Qin Dianguang suddenly remembered something: "Director Liu, why haven't you contacted the other end of New Taipei Logistics? They have many people and cars, and most of the companies are veterans of the local reserves. I've heard that they were all on the front line. Besides, Li Xian, the boss of their company, is a good person! Bah, didn't that guy donate dozens of vans to our province some time ago?

"Huh?!" Liu Maocai's expression moved.

"That's right!" he slapped his thigh and got up.
