【My Bird Day at the Royal Building】 27. Earthquake

At two o'clock in the middle of the night, there was a sudden tremor, and Zheng Zheng just woke up in a daze. It seemed that nothing was wrong. Just turn off the lights and continue to sleep. We will talk about tomorrow's affairs tomorrow.

Suddenly the phone rang, and who was it in the middle of the night to disturb people's dreams?

"Something happened, hurry to the construction site." On the other end of the phone was Xiao Xu, who just woke up and was about to go out.

"What's the matter." Just as he saw Xiao Xu running out of the gate of the construction site, he immediately stopped him and asked what was the matter.

"The outer retaining wall has collapsed." Xiao Xu replied.

"What does an earthquake have to do with retaining walls?"

"I don't know either, it collapses when it collapses."

"Anyone hurt?"

"No, where did the people come from in the middle of the night, the problem is that the fence over there is completely gone, and now it looks like a Tiankeng. Fortunately, there is no adjacent room next to it, otherwise it must be worse."

"The focus is on the bloodthirsty reporters tomorrow. It has nothing to do with casualties or not." He just broke through the cecum.

"Hurry up and help."

"What are you helping? We can't help digging, so we just stood by and watched."

"Yes." After saying that, Xiao Xu walked slowly back to the office with Zheng Gang, like a deflated ball.

Every director in the public works office kept calling with the phone, like a customer service center, contacting the fence, contacting the formwork, contacting the earthwork, contacting the concrete, how could it be possible to get through in the middle of the night? For the customer's phone number, the customer called the company first, and found that the company couldn't get through, so they called the work office. I really don't know how they found the phone number of the work office.

The bell rang, the extension of the public works office rang again, and just answered the phone, "Hey, is this the Royal Phase 12 public works office? I'm here with the news from China. I would like to ask if there is a collapse of the retaining wall." Zheng Gang I was stunned. How could the news reach the reporters so quickly? It's strange that all the customers called in so quickly. Now all the reporters are calling.

"Yes, this is the Royal 12th phase of the works. There is no comment on the current situation, thank you."

"X, how are these reporters, the news is too well-informed, everyone listen, as long as a reporter calls, just hang up directly, and let the company release the news tomorrow, we don't want to give any opinions." Wu After the director hung up the phone, he gave orders to everyone.

"Yes." Everyone replied tacitly. "

In the morning, the endless phone calls finally calmed down. Emergency repair manufacturers came to the site one after another. Everyone in the public works office went to the site to confirm the emergency repair plan. The most important task now is to do yesterday first. The good temporary blockade area is changed to a fixed fence to divide the area, and the rest is the matter of heavy machinery.

I thought the situation had eased, but I didn't expect that there were reporters guarding the collapsed area. The special assistant appeared in front of the reporters for an interview. Director Wu and Manager Lin followed. The handling of the crisis situation shows the ability of the second generation of enterprises.

"Because our construction site is an island-type construction method, the outer retaining wall is actually an old structure, not a new structure. The collapse of the retaining wall is related to the rising groundwater level in the recent plum rain season, and the lateral soil-water pressure is too high. The old structure collapsed when it couldn't hold up. It was not due to the earthquake. The debris from the collapsed retaining wall did not affect the new structure and had no impact on our house. The new retaining wall will be thicker than the current design. It will be twice as thick, so consumers don’t need to worry.”

"Is the collapse of the retaining wall due to poor design?"

"Are there any casualties?"

"Will the royal house fall?"

"Is it a human error?"

When I was just listening to it, I really wanted to complain about them. Didn't I say everything I should have said just now? Usually I like to help these builders with false advertisements, but now I come to ask some mindless questions. I didn't report when Azhou had an accident before, and now I come to ask some questions that have already been answered, I don't know what to do?

"The royal house is a haunted house." Suddenly, a loud voice came from behind. Just as he turned his head, it was Ashin. The reporters rushed to him.

"This gentleman, can you explain in detail why it is a haunted house?"

"This house, a while ago, someone, in the raft foundation pit, died, this company, kept secret, and has not paid any, liability, attempted, deceived consumers, and deceived us, workers, honest People." Ashin spoke slowly, word by word, holding a loud voice, very much like a campaign manifesto, and was just snickering in the back.

"Sir, please don't talk nonsense, our royal house is not a murder house, and your brother didn't die at our construction site." Manager Lin hurriedly interjected.

The reporter turned to Manager Lin's direction after hearing this, and Manager Lin suddenly realized that he had said the wrong thing.

"So there really is something going on in the Royal Construction. Please explain what happened." The reporters from the bottom four spoke first.

"What's the situation if it's not death?" The reporter from Zhongdi asked.

"I was injured at the construction site and died of serious injuries. This is not because of the death of the construction site. I didn't wake up from the time I was injured and sent to the hospital to the final death. Excuse me, this royal case is not called a haunted house, what is a haunted house, does it really need someone Is it called a haunted house just by jumping from the top? Then I will jump right now, and you can take a good picture and see what a haunted house is." Ashin resumed his normal speaking speed and expressed his opinions to the reporter and the three representatives of the Huang family.

"Mr. Lin Yuxin, we are also very sorry that your brother passed away. We are also very sincere to talk to you about compensation. It's because you didn't give us a chance, it's not because we don't want to talk about it. If you insist on using this method to deal with things, then We have to take legal measures to protect our company's reputation." The special assistant came out to speak, but at a young age, Typhoon was much calmer than Manager Lin.

"Look, this is what big companies do. How can we, the weak working people, fight against them? We have to take legal measures at every turn. You should report it well and see how these rich people bully us, the poor and the poor. , their house was built by bullying us, the poor and the hard. Do you consumers want to give money to these jackals and tigers in exchange for their arrogance? Can you live in this kind of house? Look clearly, this kind of house Don't buy it."

"Mr. Lin Yuxin, please remember your speech today. We will ask a lawyer to handle it."
