The next day, it was another day of meetings and activities, and I don't know if it was just in time, or if it was accumulated by not being in the unit a few days ago.

At the end of the day, I felt quite tired, and when I returned to the office, it was past nine o'clock. Chu Tianqi decided not to work overtime anymore, so he walked straight to the back room.

"Ding Bang Bang", the landline phone on the desk rang.

Thinking like this, Chu Tianqi casually glanced at the caller ID.

Chu Tianqi was puzzled and picked up the telephone receiver.

"Hey, mayor, don't disturb your rest, right?" Chu Xiaoya's voice came from the earpiece.

Chu Tianqi sat down on the chair and said, "You know I'm here, why don't you call your phone?" I thought someone else had made a mistake. ”

"You are a member of the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee and a leader of the municipal government, where can I leave you? Aren't you afraid of disturbing your work by calling your mobile phone? I thought you should be in the house at this point, so I called you, but you didn't answer several calls. If I don't answer this time, I won't call, and of course I can't call my phone, which is obviously too ignorant. After a pause, the other party asked again, "I'm not that ignorant person, am I?"

"Yes, you're sensible. Chu Tianqi sneered, "Opening your mouth means that you are long and you are short, but when you say that, the meaning does not match the word 'you' at all." Are you sensible?"

The other party sighed: "Hey, the leader is really difficult to wait, no matter what, you can find fault." ”

"Alright, don't make me up, let's talk about something. Chu Tianqi pulled back to the topic.

"Giggle......" After laughing on the phone, his voice returned to seriousness, "That's the case, this afternoon, there has been new progress in the investigation of the collapse of the bid section of Highway 302 Kunzhong Company. Originally, I was going to report to you in person, so I contacted Li Ziteng to make an appointment. As a result, he said you have meetings and activities all afternoon and are not in the office. I thought it was important, and I didn't dare to disturb your meeting, so I tried to call a few landlines.

After testing by two authoritative institutions, only this section of the whole road section is an unqualified project, which is beyond doubt, and the relevant report has also been formed. In the process of investigating the quality of the entire bidding project, the project cost is also an important part of the investigation. The total average cost of the whole bid section is the same as that of other bids, but the material cost is 15% higher, and the 15% is leveled in labor costs. ”

Chu Tianqi said "oh": "That is to say, the cost is reduced in labor, and the lack of engineering and technical strength is the root cause of inferior projects." ”

"This is definitely one thing, because the proportion of labor and material costs in other bids is in line with the standard range, only this bid has deviated. In addition, it is not excluded that the price of construction materials is high and the quality is not high. Chu Xiaoya replied.

"Yes, it's likely to be bought at a high price. Is the construction boss a fool? Supposedly, it shouldn't be. What specific materials are too expensive?" Chu Tianqi asked again.

"Cement and stone are expensive. Chu Xiaoya replied.

Chu Tianqi said "oh": "Which cement?"

"Which one?" the phone hesitated, and then a voice came out, "I didn't look at it closely, I just looked at the data." After contacting Li Ziteng at that time, I knew that you didn't have time, so I went on the road again. When I came back, I got off work, so I went straight back to my accommodation. In this case, I will go to the unit immediately and report after reading it. ”

"There's no hurry, it's okay tomorrow. After speaking, Chu Tianqi hung up the phone.

Fifteen percent higher? How much does this cost? Chu Tianqi pondered in his mind.

……

"Ding Bang Bang", the ringtone started again, this time the phone was ringing.

Glancing at the caller ID, Chu Tianqi pressed the answer button: "Lao Qu, how is it?

"yes, some of them. Qu Gang's voice came, "I usually don't pay attention to this, but when I inquired, I found out that there are only four companies in Quandingye City that produce special cement for highways, and three of them are flying high with wings." The only other company is said to have shrunk its business, with a market share of only 10 percent, and it is said that it will stop production immediately. Judging from this situation, spreading one's wings and flying high is bound to form a monopoly, and it should also be creating a monopoly.

Almost all of them are the products of this manufacturer, and there is no comparison in the past two years, people just say that the price is high, and it is not clear how much it is higher. I inquired about this today, and the person who asked it was not an authoritative person, and many of them were also hearsay. The deputy mayor is in charge of this work, do you want her to report to you?"

"She's just been in charge for two months, what can she know?" Speaking of this, Chu Tianqi said suspiciously, "Old Qu, why do I think you have bad intentions when you say this?"

The other party smiled "hehe": "Mayor, you are too careful, I am telling the truth, it is because you insist on thinking crookedly." ”

"No wonder people say that the older a man gets, the more out of tune he becomes, and he is a grandfather, but you don't speak properly. Let's do some serious work, and then inquire further about cement. Speaking of this, Chu Tianqi pressed the red hang-up button.

Although Qu Gang didn't say much, it was inevitable that he would hear it, and some news might not be accurate. But it seems that this high-flying company may have some words.

What is there to say? Chu Tianqi pondered some possibilities.

……

It was just after ten o'clock that the landline rang again.

Seeing the display number, Chu Tianqi said, "Slow enough", and directly picked up the phone receiver: "Arrived at the unit?"

"It's a minute. It was Chu Xiaoya's voice on the phone, "I have already got the form, and there is an attachment at the back." The table shows that the cement used in the construction bid section of Kunzhong Company is produced by the cement plant of Gaofei Company. I turned to a previous report in the file, which showed that other sections of Highway 302 also used cement to varying degrees, accounting for about 20 to 30 percent of their total use. Compared with the data in the early stage of the project, the price of cement with the same mark is about 20% higher than that of other cement.

There is also a more interesting phenomenon, in the same period, the same 302 highway bid, and all use wings flying high cement when the unit price per ton of Kunzhong bid is 14% higher than that of other bids. The only explanation is that the cooperation between Kunzhong and Gaofei began at the beginning of the project, and the price determined at that time was extended until the end of the project. And the three bids will be more than a year late, and there is still a little and a half left in the concrete project of the highway base before the cooperation begins. ”

Chu Tianqi said "oh": "What do you think?"

Chu Xiaoya analyzed: "When I got the data in the afternoon, I just noticed that the material cost of Kunzhong accounted for a ridiculously high proportion, and I only knew that the cement and stone were high, but I didn't pay attention to the reason for the highness. It was only after a closer look at the report that the actual amount of cement used was not higher than the amount that should be used, but about 8% lower, but the amount of stone was 7% higher than the amount that should be used. This is suspected of cutting corners, which is to use the excess amount of stones to make up for the loss of cement, but the unit price of the two building materials is very different, and in fact it costs less.

This side used stones to steal cement materials, but the other side spent a high price to buy cement, and the cement was paid in advance. The three bids are not only relatively low in unit price, but also pay after the first use of materials, and the last payment is after the completion and opening of the entire project, when it has been nearly half a year since the last cement. This makes me wonder: Is the boss of Kunzhong a fool? There is nowhere to spend too much money? Obviously, this is not the case.

Then there is only one explanation: Kunzhong is doing profit transfer to spread its wings and fly high. One possibility is that the important people of Kunzhong Company have personal interests in spreading their wings and flying high, and this interest is much higher than the personal interests in Kunzhong, which may be stepping on two boats, or it may be eating inside and out. This person or these people are hollowing out the Kunzhong company in this way to fill their own pockets.

The transfer of benefits is certain, but there is another possibility, and that is not to be done. Spreading its wings and flying high has something that the Kunzhong company is afraid of, because it is afraid of certain things or certain people, it has to do this, and it has to cut the meat and feed the tiger. Although it is inevitable that the flesh will be drenched in blood, it can keep the temporary peace, at least not the immediate destruction. But it is also equivalent to drinking water to quench thirst, after all, it will harm oneself and others, and this road collapse is a manifestation. I wonder if the person in charge of Kunzhong is now repenting of the sins he has created, or is he glad that the accident happened early, so as not to fall deeper and deeper?"

Chu Tianqi nodded: "Your analysis is very reasonable, it should be like this, otherwise it really can't be explained." After a pause, he added, "Is there anything else?"

Chu Xiaoya's tone was very affirmative: "It must be caused by pressure." I just found out that the three standards also use this cement, and I checked a few more information, and I can find clues from these things. When the first batch of cement supply contracts was signed for the four bids, the time was about the same, even a few days later than that of Kunzhong and Flying High. In other words, at that time, the other three standards should be done according to their own wishes.

However, when the pavement base project was not completed, the three companies abandoned the original cooperative manufacturers and switched to using high-flying cement, and the unit price was 5 to 7 percent higher, which is abnormal. Either the three bids receive pressure, or the cement companies are under pressure, and if they do not cooperate with the wings, they may have to bear some kind of blow or retaliation. Whether it is the same cement plant under pressure or the bid section is under pressure remains to be further understood, and I am not clear.

There are all kinds of indications that this spreading wings and flying high is by no means a good stubble. It seems that until now, it has only entered the Dingye market for more than three years, but the business is very wide, a few days ago, the cement tankers seen on the road are all flying high. At the time of the construction of Highway 302, Gao Fei should have just started business in Dingye, but he won the supply business of the whole section in a short time, which is not something that can be done casually. This is only 302, and other roads are not known yet, so it is very likely that this is the case. ”

Chu Tianqi nodded thoughtfully: "Yes, it's definitely not a good stubble." ”
