Chapter 114: Strike
Tianhe Province is vast, in Shanping County, which is more than 300 kilometers away from the provincial capital Tiandu, the weather at the moment is completely different from the sky, don't say the big sun, a rain has fallen from the early morning to the present, the sky above the entire county is dark, and the low pressure makes people a little breathless.
And in the Shanping County Fertilizer Factory, this oppressive atmosphere has reached its peak!
After getting up at seven o'clock in the morning, Chu Jun felt from his wild right eyelid that today might not be a good day.
Things are also as he expected, indeed, today the old yellow calendar says that there is a disaster.
When he went to work half an hour earlier as usual, he found that some workers' families had unusually gathered at the factory gate today.
Chu Jun asked a few questions about what they were doing, but they all avoided him secretly, but they didn't say anything, which made him a little baffled.
The next development of events exceeded Chu Jun's expectations.
The work announcement, which was supposed to ring at eight o'clock, was not silent today, but Chu Jun in the office heard a noisy sound downstairs.
"The fertilizer factory will give me a bonus!"
"I can't live anymore because I owe my bonus!"
"The cadres in the factory eat and drink spicy food every day when they go on a business trip, and we don't even have a dime of overtime pay!"
"We want treatment!"
"Yes, to be treated! Ask for a bonus!! ”
The sound was getting louder and louder, and the two-millimeter-thick glass window could not play a slight obstruction role, but the sound outside was like a heavy hammer, knocking on Chu Jun's heart one by one.
Something bad!
The workers are on strike!
Workers' strikes were not uncommon in China, but they were in China in the old days.
After the establishment of Xinhuaguo, no matter how large or small any enterprise is, as long as there is a strike during work, it must be a big deal!
We workers are familiar with the lyrics, and our country is also a country where the people are the masters of the country established by the advanced working class, but if there is a strike in peacetime, it means that the problem is very serious!
The cadres upstairs opened the door of the office almost at the same moment and rushed to the corridor, watching more and more workers gathered downstairs from the door to the playground shouting slogans, and even took out banners and roared, everyone looked at each other, and everyone subconsciously cast their eyes on Chu Jun, who was the factory director.
If this posture were to be replaced by any person, I am afraid that there would only be a cold sweat, and my legs trembled with fright, but Chu Jun was different.
He is also the old factory director who came back from the army, and he was also a ruthless man who almost ate a gun and lost his life in order to kill the enemy.
"It's the other way around! What are you doing here? Collapse the factory?! ”
I have to say that after so many years of being blocked by the factory director, Chu Jun has never done anything bad to the factory, although his temper has exploded, but he is also known to everyone for the factory.
But Chu Jun didn't dare to slack off, and immediately put on his coat and rushed downstairs, and the rest of the cadres who were still in the office also followed suit.
Overlooking from a distance upstairs and getting close to a large number of workers shouting slogans, the feeling was completely different, at least Chu Jun felt that the people in front of him who were usually busy in the workshop had a kind of anger at the moment.
"I'm all gone, go to work!"
Chu Jun did not hold an umbrella, but stood in the rain, waving his hand and shouting at everyone.
But he clearly underestimated the strike movement of the masses, and the mood could not be changed by a simple shout.
Sure enough, after seeing that Chu Jun had no substantive moves, someone took the lead in shouting!
"Director Chu, when will our bonus for the third quarter be paid!"
Chu Jun looked up and squinted, and this familiar voice came from the thorn in the factory - the general worker of the nitrogen fertilizer workshop, Liu Dongqiang, a native of Shanping, nicknamed Liu Ergou.
To say that this Liu Ergou is not an honest worker, he usually has a lot of small problems, but why is it his turn to come out today?
Sure enough, under Liu Dongqiang's shout, the already quiet crowd just now became irritable with his voice.
"Give out bonuses!"
"If you don't send it, you won't go to work!"
"That's it!"
Chu Jun looked at this posture, hey, it seems that these people are iron-hearted today.
Chu Jun, who had been on the battlefield to capture the thief and capture the king first, naturally knew it, and after a little thought, he frowned and asked Liu Dongqiang directly: "Liu Ergou, you are so bold!" If you don't go to work and come here to confuse everyone, do you want to be deducted from your salary? ”
But Liu Ergou's answer was obviously a little unexpected by Chu Jun: "The factory is embarrassed to deduct wages? This quarter's bonus has been delayed for so long, and I can't even pay the heating bill, so I'll go to live in your house after deducting my salary! ”
"That's it, I can't afford to pay the heating bill!"
The words immediately struck a chord with everyone.
Seeing that winter is coming, half of the heating fee for the workers was originally paid by the factory, and half was paid by the workers themselves, but Chu Jun also knew that the half had not been in place recently because of the tension in the factory, and he felt a little guilty when he saw Liu Ergou roaring like this.
But Chu Jun still didn't show his emotions on his face, and when he saw that the hard one didn't work, he had to come to the soft one: "Don't worry, everyone!" The factory will find a way to pay everyone's half of the heating bill as soon as possible! Now the most important thing you need to do is to hurry back to your work and do a good job! The rest of the things, as the factory director, I will not care about the team in the factory! ”
But a sharp-toothed little girl immediately stood up: "Director Chu, then you should find a way to send the bonus quickly, we still have to pay half of it!" This month's salary has not been paid for a long time, and the factory still asks us to work overtime every day, which still makes everyone not live? ”
"That's it! Don't let me live! ”
This sentence is like a drop of cold water dripping into a hot oil pot, and it immediately blows up the just silent crowd again!
Everyone stared at Chu Jun and questioned, and the team, which was originally only more than 100 people, gradually increased to about 200 people as the momentum became more and more noisy.
That's almost half of the number of workers on the job!
Don't think about it, normal production will definitely not be able to be carried out now, Chu Jun subconsciously wanted to call Mo Jinlong, the head of the production section, to come over and help him press it, but when he turned his head, he realized that Mo Jinlong was still on a business trip and didn't come back at this time!
The passionate workers have overcome their emotions at this moment, and seeing that Chu Jun has not made a decent statement for a long time, everyone has gradually surrounded him to the staircase of the office building!
In front of the black oppressive crowd of workers, on the stairs behind are the cadres with a frightened face, Chu Jun was blocked in the middle, and he couldn't say what he was suffering!
