Chapter 214 Tofu Scrap Project

This time, due to the huge official shock caused by the railway department, a large number of officials fell down, and some even got shot. They did not have the good luck of Luo Weimin. Some people came forward to protect them, and some people paid to help them fill the loopholes, so their fate was decided.

The shock caused by the railway department not only shook down a large number of officials, but also shook the tofu project.

Not long after Zeng Lingfeng returned to Danxing, he received a reaction from the following: that was, a tofu project appeared on the Yuhan Railway.

Since Zeng Lingfeng proposed to build several railways from the basin to the outside world in early 2009, this plan was quickly passed and road construction began. Among them, two railways are related to the Hanyu Mimon Group. The first is the Chongqing-Han Railway leading from Chongqing along the Yangtze River to Wuhan, and the other is the Danhan Railway departing from Danxing and passing through Enshi, Hubei to Wuhan.

Hanyu Mimeng Group is one of the investors of these two railways. It is precisely for this reason that Hanyu Mimeng Group sent staff to follow up and observe the construction of relevant sections.

This time the tofu project was exposed, which was not directly discovered by the staff of Hanyu Mimeng Group, but was reported by the two contractors below.

When it was reported, this section of the railway had been completed and passed the acceptance of the Contractor Fangxiakou Group.

In fact, this section of the railway has been reported since October last year, but it was suppressed by Xiakou Group and the second-level contractors below, and was unwilling to expose secret inside information such as layer-by-layer subcontracting and inadequate supervision. If the personnel of Hanyu Mimeng Group had not appeared in the local area this time, the whistleblower learned that, Hanyu Mimeng Group would not have known about this.

The whistleblower's name is Li Jun. The total length of the problematic section he reported was about 33 kilometers. Li Jun himself is the earthwork provider of the roadbed project of this section.

Since the second half of 2010, Li Jun insisted on reporting the problem with real-name reports is that Fujian and local contractors used earthwork to replace gravel, resulting in at least 90,000 cubic gravel layers in the 33-kilometer roadbed were replaced by earthwork, which will cause the roadbed to soften and deform due to long-term soaking during heavy rain and waterlogging, causing trains running at high speeds of 200-250 kilometers per hour to face major safety hazards.

"If the report is not true, I am willing to bear all criminal responsibility." Li Jun said this to the observer of the Hanyu Mimon Group.

It is precisely because of Li Jun's words that the observers of Hanyu Mimeng Group reacted to the headquarters. After all, such a thing is something that a clerk like him cannot decide to solve.

Zeng Lingfeng naturally did not dare to neglect this matter.

The current Yu-Han Railway is actually a section of the Shanghai-Han-Chengdu High-speed Railway. According to his memory, news of the tofu project was once exposed in this section of the railway. Therefore, after he learned about this news, he basically confirmed that this matter should exist.

In fact, in my memory, in the years after 2011, the one that had the most problems in China was the high-speed rail industry, and every time it was shocking inside stories.

With the development of society, various reasons have led to the occurrence of difficulty in traveling among Chinese people. It is difficult to travel to the extent that it is difficult to directly affect people's unwillingness to travel, and it is difficult to reach the point where travel has no dignity. Whenever possible, people are unwilling to face the exhausted railway travel, which is unbearable for travel.

In order to solve this problem, the country has vigorously developed high-speed rail construction in recent years and has invested hundreds of billions of huge funds every year. Since 2007, the Ministry of Railways began to study the adjustment plan of the "Medium- and Long-term Railway Network Planning" and officially released the "Medium- and Long-term Railway Network Planning 2008 Adjustment" in November 2008. The new plan will adjust the passenger dedicated line planning target from 120,000 kilometers to 10,000 kilometers, and will expand the intercity passenger transport system from the Bohai Rim Urban Agglomeration, the Yangtze River Delta Urban Agglomeration, and the Pearl River Delta Urban Agglomeration to the Changsha-Zhuzhou-Tanzhou Urban Agglomeration, the Chengdu-Chongqing Urban Agglomeration, the Central Plains Urban Agglomeration, the Wuhan Urban Circle, the Guanzhong Urban Agglomeration, and the West Coast Urban Agglomeration of the Straits.

It is expected that by 2020, at least 50,000 kilometers of high-speed railways will be built.

However, while high-speed railways are developing rapidly, the problems that arise here are becoming more and more serious.

Any project bidding involving power may be entrained into "private goods". Some EMU parts suppliers "decreed" by officials have low quality and high prices, and they claim to be able to use 20 years of use to fail as soon as they left the factory. Some relatives of officials are also "close to the water" and monopolize the supply of certain parts. There are also merchants colluding with officials of the Ministry of Railways, and some unknown factories have become suppliers openly without any relevant manufacturing experience. Some old-fashioned enterprises with strong technical strength are excluded from the supplier list and have to rely on related companies and intermediaries to earn meager subcontracting production fees.

The high-speed rail investigation initiated by the Ding Shumiao case in 2011 brought down a large number of railway officials. However, the evils they committed were obviously still long-term negative ripples. Faced with the outrageously expensive equipment on the EMU, passengers would not feel "God". They would only think that the "subject" caused by ** procurement was actually passengers. The heavy bleeding after being "slaughtered" will eventually be reflected in the fare prices of the EMUs for a long time.

Those who pursue huge profits not only have bad ideas on the equipment of the EMU, but also extend their minions to the construction of the railway, resulting in a series of shoddy projects. What was exposed on the Yuhan Railway this time is just the tip of the iceberg.

Zeng Lingfeng did not want the railway he invested in and built to become a tofu project that would harm future generations. Therefore, in accordance with the agreement first reached by Hanyu Mimeng Group with the country, he ordered the activate of the supervision power of Hanyu Mimeng Group to conduct a comprehensive review of the already built Yuhan Railway.

Before this, Zeng Lingfeng only sent some observers symbolically to show his trust in those state-owned enterprises. However, this time Zeng Lingfeng was a little angry and became serious.

As a result, a huge and complete verification team appeared along the Yu-Han Railway and the Handan Railway.

It doesn't matter if you don't check it, but there will be a big problem once you check it. The sections of roads with problems are as high as 15%. In other words, if these two railways are opened to traffic, a major accident will be basically confirmed.

With anger, Zeng Lingfeng flew to Beijing again.
