Chapter 516: Seeing Temporary Workers Again
"Dear reporters, my name is Yuu Uchida, and I am the director of Hijiya Iketani Production Office. I am very honored to hold this press conference with Mr. Feng Xiaochen of China State Equipment Industry Corporation to introduce the investigation results of the collapse of the fractionation tower at the Perot Chemical Plant... "
In the large conference hall of the Cape Hotel, there were more than a dozen media reporters sitting sparsely, as well as some people from the industrial circle. They were invited to attend the press conference. The collapse of the fractionation tower at the Perot construction site caused only a few people to be slightly injured, and the economic losses were not particularly large, so it was not very eye-catching news. Feng Xiaochen had someone send the invitation to the press conference to various media in Mexico City, but not many people were really interested. Some media simply left a fax number and asked the conference organizers to send them a press release later, and they considered whether they needed to publish it at their discretion.
What surprised the reporters was that the invitations for the press conference were sent by the Chinese, and the first person to go to the podium to speak was Yuuchi of Iketani Production. What surprised them even more was that the Japanese man who insinuated the responsibility on Chinese workers ten days ago praised the exquisite skills of Chinese workers at the beginning of his speech, and strongly condemned "some irresponsible media have made inappropriate accusations against Chinese workers."
Inappropriate accusations? Isn’t this what You Uchida Yu wants us to say? Why are we spread rumors now? I heard that Japanese people have a tradition of eating excrement to treat brain dementia, and today I can see a living sample.
"Iketani Production has been cooperating with Chinese companies for nearly 10 years, and these hardworking Chinese workers are present in many of our overseas construction sites. We believe that the technical level of Chinese workers is no less than that of senior workers in any Western industrial power, and their intelligence and hard-working spirit are even more admirable." Yuuchi said.
"But, Mr. Uchida, it seems that at the last press conference, you specifically emphasized that the Perot construction site was the first time you used Chinese workers, which is completely different from what you said today." A reporter raised his hand and questioned.
"Have I said this?" Yuu Uchida showed a surprised expression. He seemed to recall it seriously, and then said: "Mr. Reporter, I think maybe my Yin G Yu level is not good enough, and some flaws appeared when expressing his meaning. What I said at the time was that among the Chinese workers we used on the site, there was only one who had not worked on the construction site of our Ikegaku Manufacturing Office in the past. After investigation, this worker was not involved in the welding of the fractionation tower, and his technical level was also very credible."
"Did he say that?"
"No, I remember he wasn't talking about that."
"Damn Japanese, my Yin level is really bad!"
"No, Bob, do you really believe his explanation?"
"Could it be..."
The reporters were talking, some people suspected their hearing and memory, but more people reacted after a brief shock. This was not because of the low level of Yin. It was clearly because Uchida Yu wanted to throw dirty water on the Chinese people. As a result, people came to find a door to shàng, and he could only swallow his words. Didn’t you notice that today’s press conference was convened by the Chinese? Uchida Yu came to clear the name of the Chinese workers, and it was obvious that someone had caught the handle and had to come out and slapped himself in the face.
Japan is a developed country, China is just a developing country, and it is said that China still seeks Japan in terms of technology and foreign investment, so Uchida Yu's statement this time is definitely not under political pressure, but should have moral shortcomings. This means that the technical level of Chinese workers is completely free, and even Uchida Yu's desire to find a reason to pour dirty water. Uchida Yu's behavior of being arrogant at first and being respectful at the end can illustrate many problems, and this point needs to be pointed out in future reports.
"Mr. Uchida, since you say that the technology of Chinese workers is fine, then what is the cause of this fractionation tower accident?"
After the reporters figured out the previous incident, they began to ask subsequent questions.
"We have found out the reason, mainly because of a Japanese temporary worker's mistake!" Uchida Yu announced solemnly.
"After our careful investigation, it was found that Ms. Horiko Matsushita, a temporary worker sent to Perot construction site, was neglecting her duties at work. When delivering materials, she mistakenly distributed No. 25 welding rod as No. 74 welding rod to the on-site workers, causing the workers to use the wrong welding rod during the welding process, thus reducing the strength of the structure, resulting in this serious accident. We have fired Ms. Panasonic and will file a lawsuit against her dereliction of duty in Japan."
"Click!"
"Click!"
Countless flash lights lit up and took photos of Yu Uchida's righteous expression. At the scene, except for Feng Xiaochen, Du Xiaodi and Kuo Hiraoka, no one knew that Yu Uchida's heart was bleeding at this moment.
During the negotiations the day before, Feng Xiaochen was aggressive and threatened to expose the quality of steel, which eventually made Hiraoka Kioon and Uchida Yu accept the alliance under the city. Uchida Yu originally planned to compete with Feng Xiaochen and declared that Iketani's work had nothing to do with this matter, but Feng Xiaochen seized the fact that Uchida Yu once slandered Chinese workers as a reason, claiming that if Iketani's production did not make any statement, China would announce the matter, even if it would lose the opportunity to cooperate with Sedo Steel Manufacturing.
Hiraoka Kino had no choice but to help Feng Xiaochen put pressure on Uchida Yu, and promised to make generous compensation for Iketani in the future. Uchida Yu exaggerated his losses ten times, leaving room for compensation from Seno Steel. Then he agreed to Feng Xiaochen's conditions and agreed to transfer the core patent of the ethylene three-machine to China, and to rectify the name of Chinese workers at the press conference the next day.
Feng Xiaochen originally thought about putting the blame on the temporary workers, but before he could speak, Yuuchi Uchida and Kuino Hiraoka had already set this point. Feng Xiaochen realized that in terms of the ability to turn the blame, the Japanese people are far more than the Chinese, and this method really doesn't need Chinese people to teach them.
After discussing the handling plan, Feng Xiaochen forced them to write a letter of commitment to clarify the transfer of technology. Feng Xiaochen himself is a technical authority, and has been busy promoting the localization of ethylene for some time and is well aware of the requirements of key technologies. He listed a list of key technologies that require Japanese transfer, and asked Hiraoka Kiono and Uchida Yu to sign and seal it in case they arrange people to go to formally negotiate with the two companies in the future.
Feng Xiaochen doesn't have to worry about them breaking the appointment. After all, the steel quality problem at Sendo Steel Institute is objective. The steel quality problem they sell is tens of millions of tons. Any customer can discover it as long as they realize that there are quality problems, they can do some inspections. If Hiraoka Kioko and Uchida Yu dare to fool Feng Xiaochen, Feng Xiaochen will find an occasion to let go and it will cause a stir.
"Mr. Feng, our company will immediately correct the steel data to avoid similar errors. This time, please don't disclose to the outside world about your affairs, please!" Hiraoka Kiyoko bowed to Feng Xiaochen for the 100th time and begged.
"Don't worry, Vice President Hiraoka, Chinese people are trustworthy, and what we promised will never violate it." Feng Xiaochen promised.
Hiraoka Kiono expressed his gratitude again, and then said goodbye to Yuuchi Uchida. Before leaving, he asked again with a verbal question: "Mr. Feng, do you have anything else to do if we need our service?"
"Well, there is indeed a small thing." Feng Xiaochen said, pointing to the pile of promotional materials piled on the ground with his fingers and said, "Since we have reached an understanding, then these materials will not be used. Please ask Mr. Hiraoka to find someone to transport them away and deal with them. In addition, the cost of printing these materials is 175 US dollars, which I paid for in advance from my personal pocket. Since the materials cannot be distributed, these costs cannot be reimbursed. I am a public official and it is indeed difficult to bear these costs individually."
"It's causing trouble for Mr. Feng!" Hiraoka Kino resisted the urge to duel with Feng Xiaochen and bowed and said, "I will ask someone to transport these materials away and destroy them. I will also send them to you for the expenses Mr. Feng has to pay..."
Spending money to print the opponent's black materials to threaten the opponent, and finally having the opponent be responsible for reimbursing these expenses is simply bullying people. But Hiraoka Kino had no choice but to accept this bullying, and he also had the idea of surrendering to Feng Xiaochen from the bottom of his heart. This is also the national nature of the Japanese běn. Whoever attacks them the most will admire whoever is the most...
The press conference ended in a strange atmosphere, and the fractionation tower accident was finally proved to be due to the dereliction of duty by a temporary worker. Whether you believe it or not, Uchida Yu and Feng Xiaochen both believed it.
Haoge Company took an indifferent attitude towards this result. As long as the Chigu Manufacturing Institute can ensure that similar incidents will not occur in the chemical plant in the future, they are too lazy to go deeper. Tian Xiongzhe also designed a new welding process based on the real composition of the steel, allowing workers to reinforce all the equipment that has hidden dangers, and this matter will be calmed down.
