Chapter 271 Great Earthquake (3)
All the roads to the earthquake-related areas were broken. Lao Wen was anxious. Regardless of the dissuasion of his entourage, he immediately took a helicopter and went straight to Fuwenchuan County, the earthquake-related areas.
When Old Wen arrived in Wenchuan, night had already fallen. The staff members of the accompanying him lit up the flashlight and supported the Prime Minister to rush to the disaster relief command center.
Zeng Chuipu, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee and Secretary of the Sichuan Provincial Party Committee, arrived in Wenchuan County two days ago and together with Governor Jiang Hongji, commanded disaster relief on the spot. Hearing that the Prime Minister had arrived, the two immediately led the staff of the command center to greet him.
As early as two days ago, Jiang Hongji prepared several diesel motors, which were not very powerful. At present, it can only ensure the electricity consumption of several tents near the command center. The rest of the areas are dark and can only be illuminated by flashlights and battery lights.
"Hello Prime Minister!" Zeng Chuipu and Jiang Hongji saw that the Prime Minister came over with deep and shallow feet, and hurriedly met him, shook hands with the Prime Minister tightly, and looked excited.
Now, less than six hours have passed since the earthquake occurred, the Prime Minister has reached the most dangerous epicenter.
"Chepu, Hongji, you did a good job, you did a good job!" The Prime Minister also held the hands of the two tightly and praised them one after another.
On the plane, the Prime Minister has received a report that when the earthquake occurred, after a week of hard work, the local government had basically completed the mobilization of the people. Therefore, most of the residents in several counties and cities including Wenchuan County, Anchang County, Mianzhu City, etc. stayed in open and safe areas outdoors, and the casualties were minimized. According to preliminary intelligence analysis, only a very small number of residents did not obey the command and stayed in buildings. The total number of people should not exceed 2,000.
It is indeed extremely gratifying to have such a strong earthquake that can achieve such huge results in prevention.
"Prime Minister, it's windy outside. We'll go into the tent to report to you..." Zeng Chuipu looked at the Prime Minister with dust on his face and asked earnestly.
"Okay!" The Prime Minister nodded and surrounded by everyone, he walked into the command center - a temporary tent.
Zeng Chuipu did not exchange too much greetings, and then he took a huge sand table and began to report to the Prime Minister about the current situation in the earthquake-related areas.
Because the earthquake area predicted by the National Earthquake Administration and the Cold Yumeng Group Crust Movement Monitoring and Research Center is relatively large, Zeng Certain Certain Strategy is a cadre with extremely strict work style, so the mobilization area is also very large. The whole county of Wenchuan County organized large-scale earthquake prevention measures at the same time, and several other counties and cities adjacent to Wenchuan County also organized the same earthquake prevention operations. Each earthquake prevention area has set up a command center, the main earthquake prevention area command centers are equipped with satellite telephones, and other towns are equipped with radio stations and other communication equipment. According to the current situation reported by the command centers, a large number of casualties have been avoided. In the province, casualties should be controlled within 50,000, and deaths can be controlled within 3,000. As for the president, this earthquake prevention operation was extremely successful.
"Prime Minister, the main problems are as follows. First, it is confirmed that there are still a few people who have not been evacuated in time and are buried in collapsed buildings. The specific number of people is not yet determined. According to the analysis of the situation reported by several command centers, there are roughly tens of thousands of people. These people must immediately launch rescue operations. Second, all land traffic entering and leaving the epicenter area is cut off, and currently they can only rely on the air to provide a small amount of supplies. Third, the materials we have prepared are insufficient, such as drinking water, food, medicine, tents and other daily necessities. At present, in addition to the government's reserve materials,
Mainly relying on the materials prepared in advance by the Hanyu Charity Foundation for emergency response... The Hanyu Charity Foundation has sufficient reserves, but the number of people affected is too large and it cannot last long. Fourth, we have organized hundreds of emergency commandos, which are barely enough in terms of manpower, but heavy machinery and other necessary machinery for rescue are in serious shortage. Most of the collapsed houses are reinforced concrete structures, which are very heavy and difficult to move with manpower alone. However, traffic is cut off and heavy machinery cannot be transported in a short period of time. This is a big problem. It is impossible to save people without these machinery..." Zeng Cipp pointed to the sand table and always understood.
Old Wen frowned and said, "Chepu, the first priority is to save people. Without equipment, just dig with your hands and pry with wooden sticks. Do everything you can to save people. Race against time and race against death. If you can save one person. To carry forward the exemplary role of party members and cadres, each commando must designate the person in charge. Of course, there are aftershocks now, and the personal safety of the rescue team must also be paid special attention to. We cannot cause any more casualties. It doesn't matter if there are any food and drinking water shortages. The air force has been mobilized, and the army aviation force has also mobilized. A large amount of food and medicine will be continuously airdropped in. As for heavy machinery, don't worry about it for the time being. Hurry up and send people to clear a landing site so that the helicopter can transport the urgently needed machinery in first. Remember, the first priority is to save people."
"Yes!" Zeng Chuipu replied straightened.
"Secretary Zeng and Governor Jiang, please send additional personnel to Warehouse No. 8 to help distribute materials. We are not in staff and can't be busy. There are too many victims there, and we gather together, afraid of danger, and it will be troublesome if we squeeze..." As we were speaking, a woman's voice sounded outside the tent. Although it was still nice, it was a little hoarse.
The Prime Minister's entourage was about to stop him, Zeng Cippo hurriedly said: "Invite her in. She is Chairman Luo Yingluo of the Hanyu Charity Foundation..."
A beautiful figure appeared in the tent, which was Luo Ying. However, Luo Ying, who had always been graceful and elegant, was covered in mud and water, with black hair and dust on her body, like a mud monkey, and there was no graceful and elegant demeanor.
In public, Zeng Lingfeng's women call their father-in-law positions, and the necessary rules must be explained.
"Secretary Zeng, Governor Jiang...ah, Prime Minister..." Luo Ying broke into the tent and was stunned when he saw Lao Wen.
Of course, Luo Ying is extremely familiar with Lao Wen. As a leader in the Chinese music industry today, she has been received by Lao Wen more than once.
In fact, Lao Wen was even more surprised to see Luo Ying here. Although he knew the relationship between Luo Ying and Zeng Lingfeng, he did not expect that Luo Ying would appear here. Therefore, he admired Zeng Lingfeng even more. Little did he know that Zeng Lingfeng himself was not aware of Luo Ying's appearance here. Although Zeng Lingfeng was willing to make great efforts for the earthquake, he was unwilling to let his relatives take risks. Zeng Chuipu could not stop him from appearing in the disaster area because of his identity restrictions. He did not want other people to appear in the disaster area. But, Zeng Lingshuang was criticized by Zeng Lingfeng when he went to Beichuan.
"Hello, Xiao Luo!" Old Wen took the initiative to extend his hand to Luo Ying.
"Yes, Prime Minister!" Luo Ying naturally held Lao Wen's hand, but her voice was no longer as beautiful as she usually sings.
"Little Luo, you move very quickly, you come faster than me..." Old Wen said with a smile, and his eyes looked at Luo Ying very friendly.
Jiang Hongji explained: "A few days ago, Chairman Luo had arrived, earlier than me. Prime Minister, this time the Hanyu Charity Foundation played a huge role. All the schools and public facilities they built had withstood the test and were not shaken down, saving many people... and they had stored a large amount of material, which played a big role."
Old Wen nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay... Xiao Luo, did a good job. The Party and the government thank you. The people of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Gansu provinces thank you. The people of the whole country will thank you! Your merits are immeasurable!"
Sister Luo Ying has been experiencing storms for a long time. At this moment, facing the Prime Minister's envy, she still couldn't help but be very excited and quickly said modestly: "Prime Minister, this is what we should do. I am a party member and a soldier."
It has been a long time since Sister Luo Ying has never mentioned her identity as a party member to others. Now she says the eight words "I am a party member and a soldier" to the Prime Minister, and a sense of pride comes naturally.
"Okay, okay, at the critical moment, party members and soldiers must play the role of the model and the role of the vanguard!" Lao Wen said appreciatively, "Comrade Luo Ying, after the disaster relief is completed, I will ask you for me."
"Thank you, Prime Minister!" After a while, Luo Ying whispered again, "Prime Minister, this place is too dangerous, there are constant aftershocks, and a strong earthquake may occur at any time. For your safety, please go back first. We are here..."
Zeng Chuipu and Jiang Hongji immediately expressed the same opinion.
Old Wen nodded and said, "Thank you for your kindness, comrades, but since I have arrived, I will not leave. Take action immediately!"
"Yes!" Zeng Cipp immediately sent someone to clear out a simple airport for helicopters to take off and land. Heavy transport helicopters transported the urgently needed rescue machinery in and handed it to the rescue team, racing against time to save lives from the ruins.
The next day, the Chairman also rushed to the disaster area. On that morning, in Wenchuan, the most severely damaged place in the earthquake, the two most powerful hands in the country were tightly held together in the disaster area. It was also from this moment that the people of the whole country worked together and devoted themselves to the heavy work of earthquake relief.
After both the Chairman and the Prime Minister arrived in the disaster area, a strong desire to rescue disasters was quickly established and put into operation.
All supportive troops, carrying rescue materials, were continuously transported to the disaster area, and the people of the whole country mobilized their whole hearts to fight against natural disasters.
While the sources of disaster relief resources were continuously transported to the disaster area, people from all walks of life across the country took action to donate money and materials. According to statistics, the Hanyu Mimon Group donated more than one billion US dollars in total five times. If a series of measures before the earthquake were added, the amount would even exceed three billion US dollars.
Hanyu International Holiday Hotel Group donated a total of RMB 100 million in two rounds.
Xinyi Hotel Group donated a total of 60 million yuan in two rounds.
Tai Chi Group donated a total of 50 million yuan in two rounds.
Xuefei Entertainment Company donated 10 million yuan.
