Chapter 239: Can't Hide

Although Shakru tried his best to persuade Soros, but in the end there was no effect, Soros still led international speculators to attack Hong Kong, and the Hang Seng Index fell to more than 6,600 points. The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) Government responded by using the Exchange Fund to enter the stock and futures markets, absorbing the Hong Kong dollars sold by international speculators, and stabilizing the exchange market at HK$7.75 to US$1. After nearly a month of hard fighting, international speculators suffered heavy losses and were unable to realize their attempt to use Hong Kong as a "super cash machine" again.

Although the Chinese government defeated the sniping of the Hong Kong dollar by the international speculators led by Soros, it also paid a heavy price, especially at this time when China's major enterprises were reducing staff and increasing efficiency, and the use of foreign exchange reserves to fight abroad can be said to have had a considerable impact on the domestic economic situation.

"Xiao Han, what time do you get off work today?"

As soon as he heard his father ask, Lu Han secretly screamed in his heart, so he replied with some hesitation: "Well, I may have to work overtime today, and I have to go back later, so you and my mother will eat first." ”

Sure enough, my father immediately got angry after hearing this, and reprimanded: "You said that you are a small director of a capitalist factory, why are you busier than the mayor of Changchun City every day, and the mayor of the city still goes home for dinner every day." I'm telling you, you have to come back tonight, and a bunch of relatives and friends have something important to tell you. ”

Lu Han, who put down the phone, held his forehead and was troubled, in fact, he didn't need to work overtime at all these days, and there were not so many things to deal with in the factory, the reason why he found an excuse not to go home was to avoid these relatives and neighborhoods, since the beginning of this year, the whole city and even the province began to reduce staff and increase efficiency, system reform, the whole city seems to have fallen, millions of people have lost their jobs, the corresponding families have lost their sources of income, and the whole city is full of despair.

There are a lot more small vendors on the street, and most of them are forced to come out and set up stalls, sitting on the side of the road without talking, with socks, gloves, hats and other cheap goods in front of them, I don't think I can sell a single one in a day. At that time, when I walked from school to home, there were used book stalls on both sides of the road 2,000 meters, and on the title pages of the old books were the book stamps of the libraries of various factories. Not to mention the petitions in front of the government, social order has deteriorated greatly, and there have been frequent vicious incidents such as robberies and even murders, and most of them are workers who have no place to live and are forced to helpless, and parents do not dare to let their children enter the corridor alone.

In fact, this can't all be blamed on these workers, because many laid-off workers were originally trained according to the path of "industrial workers", you should be a good gear, do your job well, do a good job on the production line, what you have to do is to specialize in a field, work hard, get a low salary, the state helps you bear everything else (housing, welfare, pension, medical treatment, children's education, etc.), a person is included in this trajectory from the age of 18, work hard, and reach the age of 30 or 40, Suddenly, the state wiped its face and said let you start all over again, but these four words are so easy.

In this sad situation, the first branch of Ganges Pharmaceutical, which does not lay off people and does not cut salaries, stands out from the crowd, and people who are still muttering behind their backs that the welfare benefits here are too low and the wages are high are now asking whether they will continue to recruit workers here, and those who think that they can get in touch with Lu Han, the director of the factory, naturally try their best to find him for help.

Lu Han can understand the mood of these people very much, but this factory is not his, and he, the director of the factory, is only working for other Indian bosses, but the level is a little higher, but for such a major event as recruitment, the Indian boss Mr. Pandit does not approve, he can't use any strength here, but these people looking for him are either relatives or old neighbors, looking at their miserable appearance, he can't refuse, so he has to hide in the factory for a few days.

But I can't hide from the posture today, my father's temper is very clear, and I was able to talk to myself like this just now, which means that someone next to me must be listening, if I don't go back tonight, then Comrade Lu, who has lost face, may not have to clean himself up.

After sighing, Lu Han decided to go back, anyway, this matter has to be faced sooner or later, and it is not a way to hide all the time, so he beckoned the driver Xiao Li and said, "Xiao Li, let's go, drive home." ”

Speaking of Lu Han's style now, his car is an Audi A6 that is more luxurious than the city leader's special car, which is not how much he wants to show off, in fact, this car is equipped by Sha Kru, saying that he is his representative as the director of the factory in China, so he can't be underestimated when he goes out.

But in fact, Lu Han is more depressed than happy about this good car, because this car has almost become the first choice for weddings and funerals in Changchun City, and the city leaders often care about him to use it, anyway, this car is out for a longer time than he uses it.

Just when Lu Han's mind was full of thoughts, the driver Xiao Li suddenly cautiously asked, "Factory director, when will our factory recruit workers?" ”

Lu Han replied with some dissatisfaction: "Why are you even asking me about this, I've been annoyed to death by this matter for the past few days." ”

Xiao Li smiled bitterly: "Factory director, I can't help it, my daughter-in-law inks with me every day, and you say that she has a really good memory, last year I bragged to her, saying that our Indian boss is waiting for the big layoff and then recruiting, I didn't expect that now she will turn this sentence up." Factory director, you said that the Indian boss didn't just say it casually. ”

Lu Han pondered for a moment, and then replied: "It shouldn't be, I remember that what he said at the time was quite positive." ”

"Then why hasn't there been any movement now, now the streets are full of laid-off workers."

"I don't know, maybe the boss has other considerations. Okay, let's drive well, there's news, I'll tell you again. ”

In fact, what Lu Han didn't know was that Shakru hadn't changed his mind, but that he had been busy following Soros's ass around sniping around to make quick money these days, and then forgot about it
