Chapter 2 Rescue Uncle
With thick hair, smooth face, and thin figure, Li Rui stood in front of the mirror and stared at his image. He was the best self and the best years.
I once again gained the most golden twenty years in my life, either ecstasy, hesitation, or confusion, and all kinds of emotions are intertwined.
No one's life is perfect. Even though Li Rui's voice and sex in the past twenty years, indulging in unrestrainedness and enjoying his life, he still has countless regrets.
"The phone call just now was from my uncle, and I am still alive. Yes! Since God has given me a gift to live for twenty years, I must save my uncle and prevent the tragedy from happening again." Li Rui suddenly thought through, clenched his fists, and waved his fiercely at himself in the mirror.
My uncle Li Wenjun, the first batch of college students after the resumption of the college entrance examination in 1977, studied at Pengcheng Institute of Technology, and was assigned to Pengcheng Engineering Machinery Factory after graduation in 1982. With his solid subject foundation, he only took more than a year to find out the production technology in all aspects of the factory and became the absolute technical backbone of the factory.
In 1983 and 1984, the central government advocated vigorously cultivating knowledgeable and capable young cadres. My uncle went from technicians to technical section chiefs, workshop directors, deputy directors of production to deputy secretary of the Party Committee and directors.
In 1989, the state integrated industrial enterprises, and the Pengcheng Engineering Machinery Factory and its subsidiaries under the Ministry of Machinery Industry merged to formally form Penggong Group. Xiaojiu became the director deputy general manager and became a deputy department-level cadre in his early thirties.
After the integration, Penggong Group developed rapidly. As the deputy general manager in charge of technology and production, Xiaojiu made great contributions and became a strong competitor to the general manager of the group. However, unexpected events occurred. In 1993, Penggong Group suffered a major safety responsibility accident. A giant gantry crane with a 300-ton grade weight of nearly 2,000 tons collapsed, causing 21 deaths and five injuries, and direct economic losses exceeded tens of millions of yuan. Li Rui's uncle was also unfortunately killed in this accident.
The accident suffered heavy casualties and had extremely bad impacts. The relevant central ministries and commissions and provincial and municipal levels formed a joint investigation team to conduct the accident investigation. The result of the 300-ton giant gantry crane that had the accident had quality hazards. Li Wenjun, deputy general manager of Penggong Group, who was responsible for the on-site installation command, was himself responsible for the group's technology and production, so he was mainly responsible for the accident. Given that Li Wenjun unfortunately died in the accident, he was no longer held accountable, but the original memorial service was cancelled and the pension was paid according to the general employee's benefits.
As a family member, Li Rui did not believe such investigation results at all, nor could he accept that his uncle had to bear such a bad reputation after his death. He found several old subordinates of his uncle who had lived in private and learned that the gantry crane installation in the accident had undergone multiple technical inspections in his previous life, and the quality was completely up to standard and there were no quality hazards. Some people also secretly revealed that the one who was responsible for the gantry crane installation task was the Machinery Installation Company of Pengcheng Mining Bureau, and the on-site command was Qi Cunwei, the manager of this machinery installation company.
It was obvious that someone misled the investigation of the accident and deliberately poured dirty water on his uncle. Li Rui went to the investigation team to make trouble, but there was no result. He went to the person who had revealed the news to him to testify, but no one dared to come forward. The reason was that Qi Cunwei was not only a department-level cadre, but also he also had a good brother, Qi Yingwei, executive vice governor of the Standing Committee of the Suhuai Provincial Party Committee.
Li Rui found a lot of people, including asking Zhang Zhuoyang to ask the help of the deputy director of the Planning Commission, and even went to Jiangdong Province to find his father Zhang Jianguo, thinking that no matter what, his uncle was also his former brother-in-law. But Zhang Jianguo said, "I'll understand the situation before talking about it." Then he sent him. After that, he was like a rock sinking into the sea without any news.
Until many years later, Zhang Zhuoyang thought that he had revealed the real situation after drinking. Although Qi Yingwei was the executive vice governor of Suhuai Province, the Qi family and the Zhang family were not on the same level. If the Zhang family intervened, they would definitely be able to turn it over. But Li Wenjun was already dead after all, and it would be less worth the effort to set up an enemy like the Qi family for a dead person. What's more, Li Rui couldn't stand on the wall, so the Zhang family had more reason to stand by.
Li Rui was deeply excited when he heard this news. He hated the Zhang family and also hated himself, but all this could not be saved.
What day is it today? Li Rui suddenly realized this serious problem. He picked up his phone and looked at it. The date above suddenly showed: June 25, 1993.
Oh no! Isn’t my uncle killed today?
Li Rui quickly made a phone call, and it was strange that his uncle's big brother's big number naturally jumped out of his mind.
"Beep, beep..." The phone rang for a long time, but no one answered it. Li Rui became more and more nervous. In just a few minutes, my uncle shouldn't be...
The phone was connected, and a young voice came from the other end: "Hello! Mr. Li is not here, who are you?"
My uncle's secretary Wang Tianyu and Li Rui breathed a sigh of relief and immediately thought of a name.
"Xiao Wang, I am Li Rui. Where are you Mr. Li?" Li Rui asked hurriedly.
"Hello, Director Li." Wang Tianyu quickly became polite in his tone, "Mr. Li went down to check the work. It probably won't be too long. What's wrong with you..."
Before Wang Tianyu finished speaking, Li Rui interrupted him rudely: "Xiao Wang, you can catch up with me now. Never let him go to the gantry crane hoisting site. Let him call me back immediately."
"Dr. Li, do you have any urgent matters?"
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up. Life is a big matter!" Li Rui shouted loudly.
"Okay! I'll go find Mr. Li right away." Wang Tianyu was startled and quickly agreed.
"What a fierce thing! What's so great about it?" After hanging up the phone, Wang Tianyu muttered in a low voice. He looked down on his boss, the infamous nephew, from the bottom of his heart. Then he was stunned, huh! How did he know that Mr. Li went to the hoisting site of the longmen crane?
However, Wang Tianyu did not dare to neglect and hurried out with his elder brother.
Li Rui did not delay and put on his clothes randomly, running out of the door without even having to brush his teeth and wash his face.
Penggong Group is in the north of the city, nearly six or seven kilometers away from the Municipal Government's family courtyard located in the city center, and there is no car to call. The situation is urgent, and my uncle's phone call has not been called for a long time. Li Rui trotted all the way. A red Xiali taxi happened to stop at the gate of the family courtyard. The woman who was catching her was about to open the door and get on the car. Seeing this, Li Rui quickly ran a few steps, and quickly opened the door and got on the car before the woman.
"Hey!" the woman was startled.
"I'm sorry, I have something urgent!" Li Rui didn't reply, "Master, Penggong Group."
"It was her first..." The driver pointed to the woman outside the car and said.
Li Rui directly threw out a hundred-dollar bill, "Hurry up, the faster the better! It's yours."
The driver's eyes lit up and he nodded quickly and said, "Okay!" His hands and feet were extremely quick to activate the gear.
"It's the car I called, why are you..." The woman who had just reacted was about to come up to argue, but she heard a "bang!" and the taxi was running away.
"Who is you? You really have no quality!" Looking at the car shadows away, Gao Jie had to stomp her feet, raise her hand and look at the time. It was already past eight o'clock. There were few taxis in this area, so she finally stopped one and was snatched by a rogue.
"Gaojie." Just as Gaojie was anxiously looking for a taxi, a red little Mulan drove out of the door.
Gao Jie turned her head and saw that it was Dong Qiliang, a classmate from middle school.
"Dong Qiliang, are you going to have a break today?" Dong Qiliang is the secretary of executive vice mayor Li Yifeng. Gao Jie was a little surprised to see him driving the Mulan leisurely alone.
Dong Qiliang's originally smiling face suddenly seemed a little embarrassed: "Mayor Li went to the province for a meeting."
The leader did not bring his secretary when he went out, which means that the secretary had not yet gained the trust of the leader. For Dong Qiliang, he felt embarrassed and also had a deep sense of crisis lurking.
"Oh." Gao Jie responded, turned around and looked at both ends of the road.
"Are you in a hurry to go to the hospital?" Dong Qiliang got out of the car and pushed Mulan over and asked with concern.
It is extremely concerning that the wife of the municipal party secretary was sick and hospitalized.
"Yes." Gao Jie nodded and complained: "I was a little late to go out today. I just stopped a car and was snatched away. At this time, the doctor was almost finished checking the ward."
"I saw it when I came here just now. That person was too disrespectful." Speaking of the person robbing a taxi, Dong Qiliang noticed Gao Jie's unhappy look, and then said: "The person just now seemed to be Li Rui from the Planning Commission."
Dong Qiliang had an unhappy relationship with Li Rui. When he had the chance, Dong Qiliang was of course happy to put some eye drops in front of the daughter of the Municipal Party Secretary.
"You know him! Such a person's quality is too poor." Gao Jie said angrily.
Dong Qiliang continued: "He is the deputy director of the Industrial Department of the Planning Commission. He has just been transferred here since then. His work ability is average, and it is said that his lifestyle is not very good."
Women are usually disgusted when they hear that men have problems with their lifestyles, and Gao Jie can't help but frown. However, Li Rui was arranged by Deputy Mayor Guo Wending himself, so Dong Qiliang dared not go too far. He said to Gao Jie diligently: "There are not many taxis coming and going here, so I'll take you there."
Gao Jie looked at Xiao Mulan's narrow and small seat. She was wearing a skirt today. It was not only inconvenient but also very crowded when she sat on it. But thinking about it, Gao Jie was a little hesitant if she couldn't call a taxi for a while.
Seeing that Gao Jie did not refuse, Dong Qiliang quickly got on the car, sat forward exaggeratedly, trying to squeeze out enough places, and said, "Gao Jie, come up! I drive very steadily."
Gao Jie is not only the daughter of Gao Changlong, the secretary of the municipal party committee, but also a beautiful woman. She also divorced not long ago. Thinking of such a delicate beauty sitting behind Mulan and holding her waist tightly, she couldn't help but drool.
At this time, a taxi happened to turn from the corner of the street. Gao Jie's hesitant eyes lit up and waved her hand quickly, and said to Dong Qiliang, who looked expectant, "Thank you, there is a car here."
