9.10 Mysterious Serial Suicide III
The ferry docked, and due to their special status, Du Ping and Miyako came to the reception hall of the ferry through a special passage. The ferry port is not an airport, although there will be a special waiting room for guests waiting for the boat, but the guests who disembark from the boat generally go directly out of the ferry through the external corridor. Toto, and Miyako are special guests, so they are directed directly to the special reception hall here. Officials from the Kuroda Industrial Park and the Loshima government who came to greet them here are all here.
Walking into the reception hall, the people here even prepared a beautiful girl who presented flowers for Du Ping and Mimiko. In Miyako's words, this is an attitude, an expression of kindness, so a truly noble person should appreciate this behavior and encourage it. So Du Pingping accepted the flowers with a friendly smile and expressed his gratitude.
Du Pingping took the flower in his hand, "Thank you!"
The flower girl left, and then came the general manager Tetsuji Tanaka of Kuroda Industrial Park. According to Du Pingping's information, this is actually a retainer in the Kuroda lineage, which can be said to be a generational minister. In other words, it may have been a retainer of the Kuroda family since the time of his grandfather's grandfather. Tetsuji Tanaka's comment is that he is not good at martial arts and good at management. That is, Tetsuji Tanaka does not inherit the martial arts ability that his ancestors have always inherited, but he has a good ability to operate, do business, and create wealth. He is one of the important economic ministers of the Kuroda family, and is regarded as the hope of the humerus that will support the economic lifeblood of the Kuroda family in the future. That's why he was sent here to run the Kuroda Electronic Technology Industrial Park, which is also very important to the Kuroda Group. In terms of operation and management, he not only has relevant senior qualifications from world-class famous universities, but is also recognized as a master of operation and management. If you don't count this series of suicides, Kuroda Industrial Park can be said to be thriving by him.
Tetsuji Tanaka bowed slightly and welcomed, "Welcome, Mr. Fair. ”
Not much, only attitude. Tetsuji Tanaka's ability to come to greet Du Ping has already shown that he has enough respect for the main family, and with his position in the Kuroda family, he does not have to care too much about Du Ping's background and qualifications.
Du Pingping respectfully returned the salute, "I have heard it loudly for a long time, senior Tanaka!"
Tetsuji Tanaka smiled, "It's hard work this time! ”
The dialogue between Tetsuji Tanaka and Du Ping can be as simple as the friendship between gentlemen in ancient poems, without any superfluous words. Everyone clicks to the end and shows their attitudes. However, after continuing Tetsuji Tanaka, the town of Ogata, who greeted Du Fair, showed a completely opposite attitude to Tetsuji Tanaka.
Yoshihiro Ogata warmly gave Du a huge hug and then told him that this was the most traditional way for the locals to welcome fishermen. Then he began to tell the story as if he were his own. Expressing his long-term appreciation for Du Pingping's reputation (this must be insincere, although Du Pingping has a thin reputation as a high school student detective, but this reputation is not worthy of the real adult world's high seriousness), expressed a high welcome to Du Pingping and his party (this can be seen from his attitude that he is true), and hopes that Du Pingping's trip to Li Island can be fruitful (if he can get it, I believe he can also be much easier), and I hope that Du Pingping can stay happy in Li Island (this is a good wish).
When Mr. Du thought that the welcome speech of the mayor of Ogata could be concluded, who knew that it was only the beginning of an impromptu speech by the powerful politician. Next, he talked about the beauty of Koh Le, the kindness of Koh Le, and the loveliness of Koh Le. In this place, Leshima and Kuroda are like a happy couple, enjoying the great benefits of the cooperation between the two sides.
The mayor emphasized the importance of Kuroda companies to Lekudo. According to the mayor, five years ago, before the Kuroda Industrial Park entered the island, due to the remote geographical location of the island, a large number of young people on the island were lost to large cities such as Gyeongluo and Zangma every year, where they worked, studied, and lived. However, the establishment of a world-class modern industrial complex five years ago by Kuroda companies has not only boosted the local economy, but also caused a rapid return of the population that had been lost abroad. Li Island is ushering in another energetic youth in this golden age of human society.
The mayor stressed that he strongly and rigidly supports the construction of a modern industrial park on Koh Le. And he himself became the current mayor of Ledo because of this unswerving political advocacy. He represents the enthusiasm and support of the residents of Kodo Rakudo for Kuroda's enterprises. In Leko, Kuroda and the local residents are as friendly and harmonious as a family......
To tell the truth, Du Pingping's visit to Leon Island this time was with his own important tasks and goals. But what was supposed to be a simple welcome ceremony turned out to be a private speech by the mayor of the town, and it was a separate speech for himself, at the VIP level. This still made Du Pingping feel very embarrassed. However, due to Miyako's special cultivation and the harmonious performance of several people around him as an excellent audience, Du Pingping could only continue to listen with a smile. And when it comes to the climax, there is a warm applause. Sure enough, one thing is sincere, and that is: the aristocracy is hypocrite. But according to Mimiko's explanation, this kind of thing becomes: people who are truly qualified and educated must learn to appreciate, encourage, and be grateful. At this point, Du Pingping felt that he still needed to work hard, because he felt his heart strongly, and he couldn't wait to slap the selfless speaker unconscious.
Mayor Ogata gave a passionate speech, and when he spoke of excitement, he even contained tears. He mentioned that the settlement of the Kuroda Industrial Park has changed the local population for 15 consecutive years; he talked about the political proposition of introducing Kuroda enterprises and the election of the mayor of Kodo Lo that year; he mentioned that at the beginning of the construction of the Kuroda Industrial Park, the local employment rate and economy were increased due to construction and other reasons; he mentioned that the local residents in Kodo Lo have great expectations and confidence in the success of the industrial park and the huge force that will drive the local economy; he mentioned that because of his strong and strong Firm political advocacy, his own approval rating once reached more than 70%.
However, he never mentioned the most troublesome series of employees who committed suicide by jumping off a building, the number of victims of this series of incidents has reached 55, of which 53 have died, that the opposition of local residents to the construction of the industrial park on Ledo Island has become stronger and stronger in recent years, that there is no mention of the election of the mayor of the new sector in Ledoba, and that he is suffering from a headache because of the serial suicides of the Kuroda Industrial Park and the rumors that the Kuroda Industrial Park will be relocated.
Du Ping had done a lot of homework before he came. To tell the truth, everything that Mayor Ogata said, among the various preparatory homework carried out before Du Ping's arrival, Ogata Yoshihiro was an important part of it, and Du Pingping also studied and studied carefully.
Yoshihiro Ogata is the son of a fisherman who never went to college or worked for a large company. But he was determined, strong, persistent, healthy and passionate, and that was the image of his government. If you take a closer look at the history of Yoshihiro Ogata, you will find that he is also a man with a wonderful life, a great winner in life who has turned his life around.
7 years ago he was just a sailor on a fishing boat, then he lost his job. Like him, his wife is unemployed. He is over 40 years old and constantly hits a wall in various job search processes, because he is a person with few skills, and he is still very old and has no value in training. He, his wife, and his 9-year-old son, at their worst, had only one meal a day. At this time, he did something crazy that no one expected. He joined the election of the then district councilor, and used his family's last 400,000 savings to pay the security deposit for the election and participated in the council election. His purpose is simple, that is, according to the local finances, the district councillor has an annual salary of 2 million per year. And he always thought that there was nothing remarkable about the elected MPs. The result of this big gamble in life was that he was elected with the lowest number of votes. It's an amazing story, and it was covered by several newspapers at the time, and I heard that the feedback from readers was very good.
Just when everyone thought that this sailor councillor, whom he had admitted to be for the purpose of making money, would disappear after his term of office ended. He embarked on another challenge in his life: running for mayor of Koh Lai. His campaign proposition is that only by breaking the traditional economic model of fishing + tourism and introducing large industrial parks can we revitalize the local economy and retain the local population. It was a campaign slogan that was so bold that everyone questioned it, and it was even popularly opposed by many local residents, but the result of the campaign was that he won again. After that, he actually introduced such a powerful large-scale industrial park as Kuroda Industrial Park. The local economy has been revitalized and the population has been returned. It was a glorious time in his life, and both the company and the local residents seemed to be very satisfied with the enthusiastic and energetic new mayor, and the approval rating even reached 70% at one point. After that, there were a series of suicides of employees jumping off buildings in Kuroda Industrial Park. Businesses began to panic, and so did local residents. In particular, local residents believe that this is the reason why Ogata Town introduced Kuroda Industrial Park, and it has angered the gods who have been protecting fishermen for thousands of years, so the gods are cursing. At the same time, this series of deaths also affected his original plan to introduce other industrial parks in the future, and also had an impact on the original local tourism industry.
In the face of repeated fruitless investigations by the government and companies, and rumors that "the gods are offended, so the killing industry continues to occur", and "the industrial park does not leave, the killing industry will not stop", the mayor of Ogata Yoshihiro still insists on using his enthusiasm and passion to convince everyone he sees that this incident will definitely be resolved.
Recently, it has been reported that Kuroda Enterprises is preparing to rebuild the industrial park in another location. It can be said that everything recently is not good news for the mayor of the town, who has a steadfast and hard-nosed image. The pressure he is under now is not something that ordinary people can bear. But he still insisted on convincing himself with his enthusiasm and passion. It may also be that he thinks that Du Pingping is a key gentleman who can lead the Kuroda Group to continue to invest and operate here, so he is unleashing all his enthusiasm and efforts. Although Mayor Ogata must have had his own political agendas, this does not deny that he also loves the land.
Du Pingping slowly began to understand the mood of the mayor, and began to learn to understand, appreciate and be moved, and began to give sincere applause.
After Mayor Ogata finished his speech, he grabbed Du Ping's hands tightly, "Please bother more." ”
Yoshihiro Ogata bowed deeply, and he couldn't afford it. It seems that the mayor of the town has regarded Du Ping as the last straw to save his life.
Du Fair smiled and took the mayor's hand, "Don't worry, things will be resolved." ”
Although this is true of his promise to the mayor of the town, as well as to the general manager of Kuroda Industrial Park, Tanaka, there has been no investigation into any past incidents since he brought Miyako here. After just asking General Manager Tanaka to provide a guide, he began a comprehensive tour of Kuroda Industrial Park. Although he also arrives at the scene of the suicide incident, it seems that his main energy is attracted by the highly modern management, production, and living conditions in the Kuroda Industrial Park. In addition to some places that are explicitly forbidden in the Kuroda Industrial Park, Du Ping even took photos with great interest. This has deeply confused all those who have been following him.
…………………………
In a huge office overlooking the entire Kuroda Industrial Park, Tetsuji Tanaka was frowning slightly as he listened to the secretary's report on To's latest situation.
Tetsuji Tanaka, "You're saying he didn't do any detective work, he just used this place as a playground to visit and play?"
Although he will also visit the scene of the suicide by jumping off the building, he has never conducted a detailed and serious investigation like the previous police detectives and detectives. Is he really a detective? He's still that young, does he have that strength?"
Although Du Pingping is very young, in the eyes of insiders, he has been pursued by many people who have not been able to do it in their lifetime. So his secretary was jealous and said such things. Tetsuji Tanaka was not surprised, even he himself was very dissatisfied or jealous of Du Pingping's young but favored by the master's family. This is a guy who is Jane in the emperor's heart, as long as he has a chance to soar into the sky, he may not be able to compare with himself.
However, the education and quality of generations of ministers made Tetsuji Tanaka quickly calm his mind.
Tetsuji Tanaka seemed unmoved, "Got it." ”
The secretary was a little proactive, "General manager, do we still have to cooperate completely?"
Tetsuji Tanaka's eyes suddenly sharpened and glanced at his secretary, "As a subordinate, you must know your duty as a subordinate! ”
The secretary bowed in horror, "Yes, General Manager!"
Tetsuji Tanaka, "Give him full cooperation, even if he doesn't need it!
Secretary, "Yes, General Manager. ”
…………………………
The clean and empty roof of the tall building, clean and tidy with nothing but the cabin where the two stairwells were located. Tohea, Miyako, and Kuroda Industrial Park, who had sent the head of security to accompany them all the time, Takuro Shiwan, stood side by side on the edge of the roof.
400,000 Tuolang, "Mr. Du Pingping, is it here?"
Du Ping, "It's all here?"
400,000 Takuro, "No. This is the site of a recent suicide by falling from a building, which took place at noon last Monday. Some of the employees had just finished their meal when they saw someone jump from the city. In fact, on the roof of a relatively high building in this industrial park, there have been suicides. A total of 55 cases occurred, including 45 direct deaths, 8 deaths after serious injuries, and 2 cases of serious injuries without death. Sir, do you need to go to the hospital?
"There's no hurry. ”
Miyako is constantly collecting photos on the side. Du Pingping stood on the roof of the building, looking at the entire industrial park and entering deep thought. The roof of the building has been plastered with all kinds of amulets and exorcisms. The entire industrial park downstairs is empty, as if entering an empty ghost domain that is no longer empty.
"The workers here are already on vacation?"
400,000 Takuro shook his head, "No! As the mid-year peak season is approaching, a large number of orders have come from home and abroad. So everyone is at work, and some workers will have to work overtime at night. The sir didn't see anyone, just because everyone was going to work now. ”
Du Pingping, "The industrial park has been so busy?"
Four hundred thousand Takuro, "Yes." The Laidao Industrial Park is the latest, largest and most important industrial park of Kuroda Technology in the country, where the main products will be produced and shipped to the whole country and even the world. Therefore, there will be a large number of commercial orders for general programs, holidays, and the early stage of school for production. ”
"Can I visit a production site?"
400,000 Takuro, "No problem." General Manager Tanaka has already issued orders to all departments, requiring all departments and links to fully cooperate with his work. I don't know, how many production units do you want to visit?"
"Let's take a look at a few production units that have had suicides. ”
"No problem, let's first look at the mobile phone assembly production unit that has just committed suicide." ”
