The journey starts from the Titanic

Seeing Song Ziwen's stern look, he wanted to comfort him."Don't care too much. It's just an accident. After safety production is strengthened, such incidents should be eliminated."

"What an accident? It's obviously a conspiracy against me and you, and the iron factory. I just didn't expect them to take risks so desperately..." At this point, Song Ziwen said nothing, but Yu Mingyu took his heavy breath. Repressed anger in the middle.

"Damn! Damn them!" Yu Mingyu cursed.He also reacted, but the gentleman has limited curse skills.

When Song Ziwen walked out of the workshop, a group of workers had gathered at the door. Under the leadership of a few blushing men, those workers looked at Song Ziwen with complicated eyes: awe, hatred, regret...unexplainable.

"Song Ziwen was cruel and inhumane. He fired employees for no reason, and got angry and complained. Now God wants to punish us!" someone shouted.As soon as the voice fell, many people echoed the Tao.

"It's an explosion, and Song Ziwen is about to give an explanation, otherwise we will never finish with him!" someone continued to shout.Set off a new round of condemnation.

Seeing the crowd gradually enclosing, the security guards and bodyguards beside Song Ziwen stepped up nervously to block the crowd.

"Song Laoliu, haven't I fired you? Why are you still here today? Who deducted the wages of the workers in the first place, and now has become the representative of the workers. Your kindness really makes me sigh!" Song Ziwen stepped out, walked to a man with a full face, and sneered.

"I am here today to speak out for the workers and denounce you, the cruel Hades. Think about it, how many people's jobs have you broken and how many sins you have done! I..."

Unfortunately, before he finished speaking, Song Ziwen fell to the ground with an uppercut.

"Look at this blushing guy. Does he look like a man who makes his head for the people? Look at your faces. Is he and you the same?"

Song Ziwen disdainfully slapped his palms, as if he felt his hands were dirty.Seeing the thoughtful look of the workers, he continued: "Today's explosion is a conspiracy. Someone deliberately sabotaged the iron factory and made all employees of the factory unemployed again. The factory will take care of the injured, but I also want the bad guys. Fuck it out. I have called the police and the police will check it out soon. Now you quickly disperse, or you will be arrested to see the officer!"

Song Ziwen shouted.Everyone didn't dare to confront the problem, the crowd gradually dispersed, leaving Song Laoliu's diehard loyalists.Song Laoliu was still babbling, trying to get back to the dispersed crowd.

At this time, the factory's security guards gradually surrounded him, surrounding Song Laoliu and others.

"Song Ziwen, what are you doing? Don't mess around! I tell you, my uncle is..." Song Laoliu's voice trembled a little.

"Grab!" Song Ziwen ordered.

After speaking, he and Yu Mingyu returned to the office.After a while, under severe punishment, Song Laoliu and others obediently confessed, it turned out to be a group of restless guys, with the shadow of Japanese behind them.

"Damn!" Song Ziwen's repressed anger suddenly erupted. He smashed a porcelain to smash, and then sent a telegram to send the explosion in Hankou to Shanghai.

"What are you going to do? This matter can't be sued!" Yu Mingyu said.

"Yeah. There is no way to file a complaint, even if there is evidence, it is useless!" Song Ziwen nodded and said in his heart: "Little Japan, don't blame me for doing 15th in the first year of junior year!"

He didn't tell Yu Mingyu about this, because the other party still has the pedantic of the gentleman. To put it nicely is naive, and conspiracy can't be done.

"Let me think about this. Now the main thing is to let the iron factory re-smelt iron as soon as possible, so you should bother with this matter." Song Ziwen said.

"I have a suggestion, that is to implement an assessment system in the factory, and all employees must participate. Different positions are assessed differently, and those who pass the salary increase and benefits will not receive a salary increase. After three consecutive failures, they will be expelled directly. This should promote the learning enthusiasm of the workers, and let the iron factory catch up on the right track as soon as possible." Yu Mingyu said.

"Okay!" Song Ziwen nodded, and the assessment is also a survey of the iron factory, so that the new management can get familiar with the situation of the factory as soon as possible.

Thinking about this, Song Ziwen said again: “That’s how it should be, and it will be assessed once a year in the future as a rule. Not only must it be assessed, but 5% of the employees must be laid off.”

"Reduce 5% every year, how can this be done? What if those employees perform well?" Yu Mingyu said in surprise, never expected his partner to be so aggressive.

"It’s okay to be re-instructed if you perform well. It’s not enough if you don’t put pressure on them. Those who are lazy, sneaky, and conservative should be eliminated. In short, we cannot raise an idler. The efficiency of the factory must be maximized, otherwise this The future of the iron factory is slim!" Song Ziwen sighed.

Seeing Yu Mingyu looking at himself puzzledly, he explained: "What I am worried about now is not whether the iron plant can re-operate, but the cost! Now the price of imported pig iron in Shanghai is 65 yuan a ton, and we checked the previous The production cost of the Hanyang Iron Plant actually reached 85 yuan per ton. Excluding the factors considered, the production cost is still as high as 70 yuan per ton.

In other words, even if it is put into production, we will lose 5 yuan for every ton of pig iron produced.In the short term, it is not too much of a problem, but foreign steel products are dumped in China, and prices will continue to fall.We still face many difficulties."

"This..." Yu Mingyu couldn't think of a good way for a while. He has recently focused on the construction of the iron factory and has no time to think about these issues.

"The difficult time is temporary. I have calculated it. As long as we double the current scale and reduce unnecessary expenditures, although we can't make a big profit, we still have confidence in maintaining it. Besides, we just discussed pig iron. If we can produce high-quality steel, there should be a lot of profit. In this regard, there is no domestic manufacturer that can produce high-quality steel. If we make a breakthrough in this area, Hanyang Iron Factory will surely regain its glory. ."

Song Ziwen channeled himself.He patted Yu Mingyu, "Come on! Man, let the furnace burn up as soon as possible. After the foundation is laid, we are going to make steel! It's up to you!"

"Good!" Yu Mingyu said.He planned to introduce foreign advanced open-hearth technology to allow Hanyang Iron Works to produce high-quality steel.Only advanced technology can reduce costs and improve the competitiveness of Hanyang Iron Works.

After Yu Mingyu left, Song Ziwen thought about how to deal with the bombing. He had already sentenced Song Laoliu to death for those scumbags in his heart.Not long after, the Shanghai side replied the telegram.After Song Ziwen read it, he burned the message.

Chapter 135

Within a few days, Song Laoliu and others were sentenced to death and executed by the police for murder, destruction of other people's property, corruption, and gang formation.

On the night they were taken to the Han River and shot on target, an explosion resounding across the sky suddenly came from Daye Iron Mine near the Hanyang Iron Plant. After the fire, an iron-making blast furnace was burned down and suffered heavy losses.

Nissin Company wanted to cry without tears, and the senior management held a secret meeting overnight.

"Baga, the people from China must have done it. They must retaliate against us for Hanyang Iron Works!" A certain person said angrily.

"Oh. I said long ago not to take extreme measures, you just don't listen. Now it's fine, the retribution is coming. What should I do next?" Someone sighed.

"Of course, the Hanyang Iron Factory was blown up, and the Chinese people must not be allowed to rebuild the iron factory." The person was not convinced.

"Stupid! Then we don't want Daye Iron Mine! Do we want to die with them? We just tried it out, and the other party responded so fiercely. If we continue to quarrel, we will go to war with Meihua." Someone retorted. .

"Yeah. Without Daye's iron ore, what would the domestic iron factory do? But in the south, we do not have the advantage, and the British will not support us. The arrogant relative will only be counterproductive." Someone agreed.…

After all, Nissin is a company, and seeking wealth is not seeking enthusiasm. After being hit by Meihua's rebound, its actions have been reduced a lot.After Song Ziwen secretly worried for a while, seeing that the other party did not take any measures, he slowly felt relieved.

The expelled Song Laoliu could easily appear in the iron factory, which reminded Song Ziwen. Afterwards, he strengthened the iron factory's defense force and set up a 100-person factory guard team.Equipped with a Medan-like Mauser 98, and a Maxine machine gun.

The Hanyang Iron Factory put on a hedgehog's look, which shocked the surrounding bulls, ghosts and snakes, and asked them to throw rats and dogs.Especially for the Nissin Company, Song Ziwen secretly said that if the iron factory has problems in the future, he will definitely look for Daye Iron Mine.The big deal is that everyone should stop playing, so he can go back to Shanghai to do business.

Song Ziwen's arrogance made Nissin a toothache, but thinking of the Meihua company behind him, they had to swallow this breath.

Bullying and fearing hardship, the world is like that.For the narrow-minded Japanese, they have always been arrogant, making this decision is difficult and painful.Situ Nanyuan was in Shanghai and had been paying attention to the situation in Hankou. Nissin's forbearance made his back-ups come to nothing.

The explosion came to an end, and public opinion in Hankou gradually subsided.After Song Ziwen conducted a comprehensive assessment of the entire iron factory, he issued a 5% layoff decision. This made the workers feel pressured and worked extremely hard.

On this day, Yu Mingyu and German expert Lu Bai came to Song Ziwen with excitement."Song, it's done, it's done," Lu Bo said excitedly.However, his German-style Chinese made Song Ziwen stunned for a moment. Song Ziwen turned to look at Yu Mingyu with a look of expectation.

"The machinery and equipment are all set up, and the raw materials are ready. We can start construction tomorrow. The Hanyang Iron Factory is resurrected in our hands." Yu Mingyu said excitedly. After the bombing, his feelings for the iron factory deepened.

The next day, many people gathered in front of the No. 1 Martin Furnace of the Iron Works, looking expectantly at the tall chimney, thick billowing smoke continuously spurted out of it, and the air was filled with pungent smoke.

This is the smell of long-lost steel!Seeing this scene, everyone was excited and a little sour, and everyone had a unique feeling in their hearts.

Song Ziwen breathed a sigh of relief. During this period of time, he was criticized for his aggressive actions, and many people were waiting for him to fail.Especially the bloody wind behind the bombing made him exhausted, but he persisted.

Walking into the workshop, the rumble of machines, scarlet molten iron flowing out of the blast furnace, you can feel the heat without having to walk in.

Although the clothes were soaked, the management and technicians of a dry iron factory such as Song Ziwen and Yu Mingyu still watched this historic moment obsessively and did not leave for a long time.

"Brother, the iron was originally burnt like this? But it's so hot here!" said a beauty next to Song Ziwen.She is Song Meiling, who is very interested in Hanyang Iron Works, so she ran over from Shanghai.

As the speaker of Shanghai Poster Industry Company, Song Meiling also came to Wuhan this time with a purpose, which is to expand the business of the newspaper company in Hankou.Under Situ Nan's guidance, she is also preparing to run the publishing and printing business, but it has not had time to implement it temporarily.

Song Meiling also brought two female companions, one is Song Ziwen's fiancée, Miss Sheng Qi, and the other is Lu Bicheng.

Miss Sheng Qi looked at Song Ziwen with eyes full of tenderness, not tall, but strong, trustworthy, and all she thought of was him.
