Chapter 959: Passing the buck is really effortless
Commerce.
Ye Jingqi sat in the center of the conference room, and the Minister of Commerce and several other project leaders sat on the side, all looking very solemn.
Because he couldn't see what Ye Jingqi was thinking, the Minister of Commerce asked tentatively: "Ye Shao, I'm really sorry, it's really ...... to call you back from the construction site in such a hurry."
"Well, let's get down to business," Ye Jingqi glanced at the Minister of Commerce, and suddenly narrowed his eyes: "Have you found out the cause of this accident?" ”
"Hmm." He should have been happy to find out the cause of the accident, but the Minister of Commerce's face did not show any joy, and it seemed that he was still a little embarrassed.
"I guess it's not suitable for public announcement for this reason?" Nightview asked again.
The Minister of Commerce's face was a little embarrassed: "Those accident identification experts, through sampling at the scene, found that the building collapsed because of lightning strikes, ......
"Lightning strike?" Ye Jingyan frowned slightly: "Don't we have a lightning arrester?" ”
Lightning strikes are a common cause of building destruction, and he had heard that there was thunder on the day of the collapse, but he didn't think about lightning strikes, because he had seen the blueprints and the lightning protection measures were very perfect.
Without waiting for the Secretary of Commerce to speak, he added: "I have seen the design drawings, and there are many lightning arrester arrangements, which are enough to eliminate lightning strikes." Could it have been changed during the construction process? ”
"Well, that's right," the Minister of Commerce's face was indescribably embarrassed, and he said as if it was difficult to speak: "At that time, a few of us wanted to save some costs, and felt that there was no need to make so many arresters, so we asked the designers to modify the ......."
As soon as he said the revision, Ye Jingqi also remembered that for a while, Mu Xiaoqi complained in front of him that the design drawings were asked to be modified by the Minister of Commerce and other laymen, and he also specially talked to the Minister of Commerce at that time.
He didn't expect that among those modifications, there would be modifications to lightning protection facilities.
"We didn't think about it that much at the time, after all, we have lived in this city for so many years, and thunder and rain are rare, so we ...... Moreover, and I reported this matter to my superiors, and the president's office approved it! The Secretary of Commerce tried to explain.
"This is the end of it." Ye Jingqi pondered for a moment and asked, "What are you going to do?" ”
Although Ye Jingqi wanted to scold, he didn't scold. After all, it's already like this, and there's no point in blaming anyone.
In addition, although the people in the Ministry of Commerce respect him very much, in the final analysis, they are from the government of country M, not his people, and the relationship between them is only cooperative.
"Our plan is very labor-saving...... "The Minister of Commerce grimaced, and was just about to continue, when the phone rang.
Ye Jingqi glanced at the phone number and interrupted the Minister of Commerce: "Sorry, I'll answer the phone first." ”
"What's the matter?" Ye Jingqi picked up the phone and put it to his ear, and before he heard a word, he frowned: "What? ”
At the same time, he glanced at the Minister of Commerce.
Somehow, the Secretary of Commerce shuddered.
"Okay, I got it." Ye Jingqian hung up the phone, glanced at the Minister of Commerce, and suddenly asked coldly: "Minister, since when did I start to say something that someone said in the night?" ”
"What do you mean?" The Minister of Commerce was a little confused, he didn't understand, when he said the cause of the accident in the tallest building before, Ye Jing's face was still as usual, and he didn't blame him, how could he answer the phone and become as if he had committed a heinous crime?
"Now the design company is surrounded by journalists." Ye Jingyan said lightly: "Among them, you should have made a lot of efforts, right?" ”
"I ......" the Minister of Commerce was stunned, he laughed: "This is what I just wanted to discuss with you, I know you said that you can't shirk the responsibility for the design, but at the moment, on the one hand, the lightning protection facilities are not enough, and it is indeed a problem in the design, on the other hand, if the real reason is announced, our presidential office will also have a part in the modification of the design, so you see ......"
There was a hint of threat in his words, which meant that if the truth was announced, it would pull the highest authority of the country into it, so the truth must not be released.
"So, my words are inappropriate?" Night Jing Yan sneered.
He was laughing, but it had made the Secretary of Commerce sweat coldly.
This matter is indeed that he did not think it through, he thought that although Ye Shao did not agree to the plan to shirk responsibility at that time, but the current situation is different, Ye Shao will agree sooner or later, so he secretly revealed some news to reporters without reporting.
Of course, he also wants to use public opinion that once everyone makes money, Ye Shao will naturally push the boat down the river and will not embarrass him.
It's he who holds it up.
"I'm sorry for the night, I'm ...... I ...... "What the Secretary of Commerce wants to explain."
"Call the news media." Ye Jingqi suddenly said to the bodyguard on the side: "Have a press conference." ”
"Yes." The man nodded and quickly left.
"Hold a press conference?" The Minister of Commerce was a little flustered: "You, you want to?" ”
"Someone has to take responsibility for this." Nightscape said.
The Minister of Commerce was a little relieved when he heard this, this concept is very consistent with him, and he also feels that someone must take responsibility for this matter before the responsibility is passed on to the design company.
It is estimated that Ye Shao also agrees that this method is the most labor-saving solution.
"So, wait a minute, you can tell everyone directly, this collapse is caused by your personal embezzlement of funds for the purchase of lightning protection facilities, resulting in insufficient lightning protection facilities." Nightscape said.
The Secretary of Commerce was stunned: "What, what?" ”
"You're right, you can't make the truth public about this matter, otherwise it will affect your president's office." Nightscape raised her eyebrows. Of course, it will also affect Mu Xiaoqi. Although the design was modified under the command of the leaders, and they could not change the will of the leaders, after all, her company was the designer, and once it was announced, they would definitely be affected.
"So, you're going to be held responsible." Ye Jingqi looked at the Minister of Commerce, and said it with confidence.
"Why? I'm not convinced - it's good to let the design take responsibility! "At this point, the Secretary of Commerce is dying.
"I said, if you push the responsibility to the designer, the design has been reviewed, then these people who review the design can't run, maybe, everyone here has also reviewed the ......" Ye Jingyan looked around meaningfully, and then said: "If you think it is more convenient for the minister to take responsibility, raise your hand." ”
The people here were secretly frightened, what Ye Shao said was very reasonable, and there was a problem with the design, what about the reviewers? Isn't there a need to be held responsible?
So, everyone except the Secretary of Commerce raised their hands.
The Secretary of Commerce slumped in his chair and could not utter a word.
Passing the buck is really the fastest and most labor-saving solution.
