Three hundred and thirty-nine. The truth
As soon as the accident occurred, Chen Jinmin rushed to the scene, shirked his responsibility, and after returning to the office, he immediately called his backer, the second elder of the cabinet, to discuss how to deal with this matter.
As the second elder of the cabinet, he is also an old fox who has cultivated for thousands of years, and he is deeply aware of the official way of the officialdom of the Dawen Empire, so he first scolded Chen Jinmin on the phone, but he still gave advice to Chen Jinmin, and tried to smooth out this matter at the lowest cost.
First, the word "change" is very simple, big things are small, small things are turned into small things, first let Chen Jinmin and the relevant personnel in the Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant collude together, establish a unified confession, threats, or inducements, reduce the death toll to less than three, as for the number of injured, this is not so important.
Second, the word "drag" is decided, first from the Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant, such as the investigation of the cause of the accident, this will take time, one day, two days, it is definitely not enough, at least three or five days, if you do some small actions in it, ten days, eight days may not be able to investigate the results.
The second elder also dragged it out, for example, first press the report, three or two days late, this is not difficult, there is an accident at the Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant, the cabinet will definitely organize an investigation team to investigate, when the investigation team is established, the stumbling block in secret, so that the establishment of the investigation team will be delayed for a few days, this should not be too difficult.
In this way, he can spare ten days and a half months to make a fuss, and there is so much time enough for Chen Jinmin to do his tricks and bury the truth of the matter, but he doesn't know that the security work of the Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant is in charge of the people of the Internal Affairs Department, and his efforts are destined to be in vain.
Although the people in the Internal Affairs Department knew the truth of the incident, they did not participate in the management of the factory, so the accident report was mainly based on Chen Jinmin's report, and Chen Jinmin's report deliberately concealed the truth of the accident, and the people in the Internal Affairs Department did not know, so this false report was placed on the desk of the cabinet conference room.
After receiving the report, the Great Elder informed Li Rujin as soon as possible, and Li Rujin, as the designer and construction commander of the Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant, should and has the right to know about this matter.
Li Rujin was also taken aback after getting the news, he knew the production of Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant well, and in order to ensure safety, he formulated strict safety production rules and regulations. Now, why is there a safety production accident?
Li Rujin took the report and read it, and after reading it, Li Rujin's heart suddenly gave birth to several doubts, first, the whole accident process was written too simply, it was simply the Spring and Autumn penmanship, and it was brushed aside.
According to the report, due to the serious violation of the operating procedures and production procedures by the on-site operators, the driving steel cable collapsed, resulting in the pouring of molten steel. is such a simple sentence, and the accident process has been passed.
Second, the gap between the number of dead and injured is too large to be conventional. The number of dead is only two, but the number of injured is sixteen, this gap is too big, this is not Li Rujin's malicious intentions.
The steel furnace of Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant is ten cubic meters, a furnace of molten steel is close to 80 tons, and a production line is basically scrapped, and the coverage area can be imagined.
The red-hot molten steel will not flow past you because you are handsome, and it will not hurt you, and its coverage is basically a cover without dead ends. From the collapse of the steel cable to the pouring of molten steel, it is only a matter of seconds, and it is an emergency, and there are not many opportunities for people to escape.
When the iron and steel industry has not realized mechanized production, it is still a labor-intensive industry, and Li Rujin in order to follow up the production line, training, reserve talents, the number of production personnel arranged for each position is 1.5-2 times the number of normal production, so the number of casualties is extremely unreasonable.
Third, this report exaggerates Chen Jinmin's performance in the rescue operation after the accident, singing praises and praises constantly, not like an accident report, but more like a report asking for merit for Chen Jinmin.
Other aspects of the report are written in great detail, such as the rescue operation after the accident, the investigation of the accident, the aftermath arrangements for the dead workers, and the rescue of the injured employees.
After reading it, Li Rujin can basically conclude that this is a false accident report that conceals the truth of the accident. And the rest of the cabinet, because they don't know the inside story, let alone the technical things, maybe they can really let this report fool the past. It may even be because the officials protect each other, knowing that there is a problem inside, and deliberately ignoring it.
As soon as Li Rujin told the Great Elder about the problem, the Great Elder's expression became serious, if it was really as Li Rujin said, then the problem of concealment in this report was really not small. And Chen Jinmin's behavior is even more shameful.
At that moment, the Great Elder discussed with Li Rujin, and decided to set up an investigation team with the imperial family and the military department to bypass the cabinet.
In the afternoon of the next day, a secret investigation team left the imperial capital and rushed to Huhai to investigate the truth about the accident at the Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant, while the cabinet investigation team set out from the imperial capital on the fourth day.
It took five days for the cabinet's investigation team to set off, and the second elder was "indispensable" in spending such a long time. Moreover, this investigation team is composed of all cabinet members, basically composed of people from the second elder or people who are close to the second elder. Its intentions are self-evident.
On the third day after the Cabinet investigation team departed, the first investigation team had returned from Shanghai, bringing not only a detailed account of the accident, but also Chen Jinmin's actions after he became the head of the Baoshan Iron and Steel Plant.
The truth of the accident has surfaced.
After reading the information brought back by the investigation team, the Great Elder trembled with anger, this Chen Jinmin acted recklessly and boldly, and regarded the steel plant that the Dawen Empire had worked so hard to build as his own back garden.
In order to pursue output, he asked the operators to ignore the rules and regulations of safety production, ignore the warnings of the staff responsible for safety production, insist on going their own way, and even use shameless means to crack down on the staff who oppose his wrong behavior.
After the accident, he denied it in every possible way, planted the blame, shirked his responsibility, and even used false reports to deceive the cabinet, which is simply lawless and deserves death. The Great Elder immediately wanted to recall Chen Jinmin back to the imperial capital and arrest him for interrogation.
But the great elder was dissuaded by Li Rujin, attacking him unprepared, in order to achieve the greatest effect, this safety accident, Chen Jinmin, as the first person responsible, will definitely return to the imperial capital to make a detailed report to the cabinet, now, it is not the time to do it.
