"The matter was exposed the day before yesterday, someone took a few photos of the steel bars at the construction site and posted them on the Internet, indicating that the steel bars were fake, the diameter thickness and rib layout were unqualified, and then the matter stabbed the Construction Bureau, and soon someone went to the scene to collect evidence and investigate, and indeed found a batch of unqualified steel bars, but the number is not very large, mixed in the recently purchased batch of steel, most of them have not been used, so it does not constitute any substantial harm. Zhou Wei put his arm around Chang An and patiently explained.

Chang An breathed a sigh of relief, "According to what you mean, things are not very tricky?"

Zhou Wei: "It is really not tricky in terms of steel materials alone, the Construction Bureau and the Quality Supervision Bureau have already been here, and the inspection report given is still within the controllable range, not to mention that it has not caused any casualties." ”

According to Rong Bang's background and Zhou Wei's identity, it is not difficult to deal with this kind of thing, but it is ......

"Now the tricky thing is funding. ”

"Money?"

"You also know about Yu'an, the case is still under trial, so the part of the funds that invested in the Luyang Lake project has been frozen, some time ago I renegotiated two banks with Lao Deng, and the contract was signed before Chinese New Year's Eve as planned, but now this kind of thing is suddenly exposed, and the other party's caliber has changed." ”

"They repented?"

Zhou Wei smiled bitterly and touched Chang An's head, "I can't talk about regrets, cooperation is nothing more than weighing the pros and cons, but now because of the steel matter, public opinion on the Internet is one-sided, and it will definitely affect real estate sales in the later stage." ”

Chang An sorted it out, and he roughly understood.

"They think that this matter has formed a bad public opinion, and maybe the house you built will not be sold in the future, and the investment is risky, so they don't want to invest, right?"

Zhou Wei smiled, "That's pretty much what it means!"

"So in the end, the biggest problem is the lack of funds?"

"This is the root cause!"

"How much is missing?"

"The exact number is uncertain!"

"Probably?"

"Probably?"

"yes, how much is missing?"

Zhou Wei was a little surprised, she had never asked about her work before, but today she got to the bottom of it, but at this time, the room was quiet, the person in her arms was warm and soft, and talking to her seemed to relieve the fatigue and pressure of the past few days.

"The first phase of the fund has been invested, and most of the brand owners have also signed an agreement, as long as the project is delivered on time, there will be a deposit at the beginning of next year, so the gap is not very large. After that, he lowered his head and kissed Chang An on the forehead, "But I may have to say sorry again, I planned to take you out for two days during the Spring Festival, but now I'm afraid I have to break my promise again." ”

Chang An shook his head, "It doesn't matter, the work is important." ”

After that, the two chatted casually, and there was no theme, mainly Chang An was talking, saying that what she had seen and heard about her previous art exhibition, including the operation of the fund in London this time, at first there were two responses from time to time overhead, and gradually it fell silent.

She looked up, Zhou Wei was already asleep, her eyes closed, her jaw line taut, and she could just see the stubble coming out from this angle.

He must have been so tired that he fell asleep after saying a few words. Chang An smiled, pulled the quilt for him, and didn't make a sound, but Zhou Wei slept for three hours in a row, and when he woke up, it was almost nine o'clock, so he hurriedly dressed and went downstairs.

Chang An was in the kitchen when he heard movement and walked out.

"Awake"

"There's a meeting at nine o'clock, we have to rush over now!" Zhou Wei said as he put on his suit, seeing that the person was about to leave, Chang An hissed, "You wait!" After speaking, the person ran away, sucked his slippers into the kitchen, and soon ran out again, holding a cup in one hand and a plate in the other.

"You didn't have breakfast, and I won't get it, you deal with it first. ”

Zhou Wei glanced at it, there was black coffee in the cup, and there was... Something like a sandwich.

He was stunned.

The corners of Chang An's mouth twitched, "Disliked?"

He laughed, "How dare you!" Subconsciously raised his hand to pick up the coffee, but Chang An flashed to the side.

"Drinking coffee on an empty stomach is not good for the stomach, you eat something to cushion your stomach first. Then he handed over the plate, and Zhou Wei was helpless, so he took the sandwich on the plate and bit it.

Chang An looked nervous, "How is it?"

"Not bad!"

To be honest, the taste is really unsatisfactory, but Zhou Wei is reluctant to blow her self-confidence, not to mention that this is the first time she has made breakfast for herself, and the poison has to be swallowed.

Seeing him finish the sandwich in three or two bites, Chang An thought that the taste should be okay, and he was a little proud in his heart, look, in fact, cooking is not particularly difficult.

"Coffee!"

Zhou Wei took it, and the small porcelain cup he was used to drank in one gulp.

"Let's go!" returned the cup to Chang An, took the computer on the sofa and went to the door.

Chang An watched him leave, but the person who walked to the door suddenly turned back.

"Forgot to pick something up?" she said, standing next to the couch.

Zhou Wei walked straight in front of her, suddenly lowered his head and kissed her lips, without saying a word, kissed her deeply, Chang An was forced to lean on the sofa, his fingers twisting the leather on the armrest.

He seemed to be exhausted with all his strength, and he tossed and turned, until Chang An's body was weak.

"Good coffee, better people, if you can squeeze out time in the evening, come back to eat with you. Zhou Wei gasped lightly, put his forehead on Chang An's forehead, and gently rubbed his thumb against the skin behind her ear, his voice was hoarse, but full of bewilderment.

Chang An was weak under his feet, but fortunately there was a sofa behind him to support him.

"Hmm..."She replied in a low voice, Zhou Wei's throat swelled, and then looked at her faintly watery eyes, the corners of her lips curved, and she let go of her fingers and turned around.

A cup of coffee, a not-so-tasty sandwich, or just a look or companionship...... At that time, Zhou Wei was really not greedy, it was good that she was here, it was good that he could see her every day, and the rest was not extravagant!

……

After Zhou Wei left, Chang An used his mobile phone to swipe the news for a while, and there were obviously a lot less things about the Luyang Lake project on the Internet, and some links had expired, indicating that Zhou Wei had done public relations, but the impact had been caused, and it would definitely not be reversed for a while.

Almost without a second thought, she dialed the number in the UK.

"Hey, do you know what time it is in London?" Soon came Edan's sleepy voice.

Chang An smiled, she knew that Edan was a night owl.

"Sorry, I need to bother you!"

……

In 2011, the Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development and the General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine of the People's Republic of China jointly issued the "Notice on Further Strengthening the Quality Management of Steel Reinforcement Used in Construction Projects", which made clear requirements for the quality management of steel bars.

Why does a small steel bar need to be so exciting? Because the steel bar itself has the effect of tension and compression, it mainly plays a role in restraining deformation, reducing shrinkage creep, and improving the ductility of components, once the use of fake and shoddy steel bars, then it will not only reduce the service life of the house, but more importantly, it will bring hidden dangers to personal safety, once an accident occurs, either death or injury, so if the developer uses fake and shoddy steel bars, this behavior can be regarded as a violation of the law.

Although Zhou Wei is a businessman, it is the nature of a businessman to be mercenary, but he still has a bottom line and principles, and it is these bottom lines and principles that allow him to make Rongbang bigger and stronger in just a few years and earn a place in the industry.

Now that he has been splashed with a bucket of dirty water inexplicably, he will definitely not be willing to carry this black pot.

……

At nine o'clock in the morning, Rongbang's internal meeting was mainly to report and sort out the beginning and end of the "slimming steel bar", and discuss the follow-up solutions.

In fact, the ins and outs of the matter have already been investigated, it is nothing more than Tianfeng purchasing a batch of inferior steel, which is shoddy, not a clever means, once the East Window incident is easy to find out.

Fortunately, Rongbang has a very strict control over the quality of building materials before, especially for materials like steel bars, the suppliers of cooperation are large manufacturers with certain qualifications and scale, and the Luyang Lake project is not daring to make times, all the steel is from Tangshan Donghai Iron and Steel Group, and the previous quality supervision bureau to the scene to seal the processing of the batch of steel bars did hang the label of "Tangsteel", but Tangshan Iron and Steel is huge, is a key enterprise in the industry, and it is impossible to produce this "defective product".

After the incident, Zhou Wei compared the batch number of steel products with the database for the first time, and the results of the check were not unexpected, the exposed batch of steel bars in addition to the label, not from Tangsteel, obviously someone privately printed the label to fake, shoddy, but the steel bar into the construction site also needs to have a product certificate, Factory inspection report and other information, entering the site also need to be re-inspected, the quality inspection department will also be on the same furnace batch number, the same size of the steel bar for sampling, any of the inspection procedures must not be stopped unloading and cleaning, in such a strict quality control procedure "slimming steel bar" can also be confused through, obviously there are internal personnel in the operation, and the status of this person is still very high.

……

At half past ten, Yuan Xi and Tianfeng's people arrived, the door of the conference room was closed, and the three parties continued to meet for four hours inside, as for what was specifically discussed and agreed, only the high-level knew.

At around two o'clock in the afternoon, the meeting ended.

Yuan Xi and Tianfeng's people walked out, all of them dejected, especially He Bin, who moved to the parking lot almost with his legs limp.

He's gone, he's just a bastard kid who got into trouble and was exposed, but he didn't know how to end it.

"Brother Dong, what now?" He Bin could only ask Chen Haodong for help.

Chen Haodong came to the meeting as the project leader, he pinched his cigarette and lowered his head, "Get in the car first!"

He Bin almost trembled and climbed into his car.

Closing the door, Chen Haodong bit his cigarette and glanced at him, his face was white, his eyes were dull, and then he thought of the way he was about to pee at the meeting when he was bluffed by Rongbang's legal counsel just now, and he couldn't help but think in his heart, He Zhaoxiong was so competitive in his life, how could he give birth to such a useless son.

"Let's get out of here and find a place to talk!"

"Okay, Brother Dong, now I'm counting on you!"

Chen Haodong didn't squeak, threw away the cigarette butt, and started the car to drive out of the Rongbang parking lot.
