At two o 'clock in the afternoon, the meeting continued.
Shen Qian gave a brief report on the foundation. At 14: 20, Li Dong said to Bai Su, "You can connect the video call now."
Bai Su got up and got busy for a while. The other people gradually appeared on the big screen in the conference room.
Li Dong took a look at the video. Zhao Nanfang and Wang Yue were both there.
Li Dong looked around and asked, "Is everyone here?"
Zhao Nanfang nodded and said, "Everyone is here."
"That's good. The meeting in the morning was delayed a little. Next, Old Zhao, report on the situation in Sichuan. Also, Director Wang, talk about the situation in Shan City later."
Li Dong said, "After you finish reporting, I have something to announce. It's about the foundation."
Naturally, no one had any objections.
Although Zhao Nanfang and the others had waited for the whole morning, the employees below did not dare to show any dissatisfaction at this time.
The standard of this meeting was quite high. Not only did the chairman listen, but they also saw the other executives on the screen.
The foundation was so valued. Everyone was happy, so it did not matter if they sat for the whole morning.
Zhao Nanfang cleared his throat and picked up the document to prepare to report. Although Yuan Chengdao and the others felt that Li Dong was making a big deal out of nothing, they all listened carefully.
At this moment, Li Dong was not in the mood to report.
Li Dong looked at his watch frequently. Seeing the needle spinning rapidly, sweat gradually seeped out of his forehead.
At this time, no one else noticed, but Shen Qian looked at Li Dong with some worry. Is this guy sick?
When the time reached 14: 27, Li Dong suddenly felt a little out of breath.
On the screen, Zhao Nanfang was still speaking, but Li Dong did not hear anything. He stared at the screen, his heart in his throat.
14: 28.
Before Zhao Nanfang finished reporting, the screen suddenly trembled and some snowflakes appeared.
No one cared too much. At this moment, the figures of Zhao Nanfang and the others on the screen suddenly trembled.
Then, someone from the foundation shouted, "It's an earthquake!"
The video was abruptly cut off, but at the moment it was cut off, Li Dong and the others saw the conference room on the other side shaking. The feeling of being in a trance made everyone feel a little dizzy.
Far away from the conference room.
Everyone was silent for a moment, and some were still in a daze.
Yuan Chengdao swallowed his saliva and said in shock, "This … this is …"
Before he could finish his sentence, the building Far away suddenly trembled slightly.
The trembling wasn't too obvious. It was just the water in the cup shaking slightly.
However, when the Association saw the situation with Southern Zhao just now, many people's expressions changed drastically!
One had to know that Sichuan and Jiangbei were thousands of miles apart!
Li Dong was the first to react. He hurriedly stood up and shouted, "Quick, continue to contact Sichuan. Get in touch with them immediately! Also, immediately get in touch with Mountain City and other places to determine what exactly happened! Activate the emergency plan. Everyone else, don't panic. Director Yuan will execute it … "
At that moment, Li Dong's heart was no longer as flustered and nervous as before.
Things had already happened. Since he couldn't change it, he would do his best to do what he could.
…
Ten minutes later, Bai Su got in touch with Sichuan.
It wasn't a video. The moment the earthquake happened, Zhao Nanfang organized his people to escape from the branch office.
At that moment, they really panicked.
The phone was on speakerphone. Zhao Nanfang panted and said, "General Manager Li, something happened. Earthquake! The earthquake is in Sichuan. We haven't received the specific information yet. Shu City has also been affected by the aftershocks. Now that the entire Sichuan is in chaos, General Manager Li, what should we do? "
Li Dong's expression was solemn. He immediately said, "You guys just need to find a safe place to protect yourselves first. Ensure that the communication is smooth. I'll immediately arrange for an emergency team to rescue them! In addition, if the situation permits, Director Wang can return to Mountain City when it's safe! After returning to Mountain City, immediately organize the rescue supplies. All the warehouses in Mountain City are at your disposal! I will also immediately give orders for the relief supplies in the surrounding E Province to be transported to Sichuan as soon as possible! For the time being, safety is the first priority. I don't know the details yet. I'll make arrangements after I get the specific information. "
"Okay, I understand." Zhao Nanfang calmed down a little and quickly responded.
The phone was not hung up. Wang Yue picked up the phone and said, "General Manager Li, I'll go to Mountain City immediately. The earthquake should be very big, even … even bigger than the one in Tang Shan …"
Wang Yue's voice sounded like she was about to cry.
Even Shu City was seriously damaged. The streets were filled with panicked people. Many people were crying while talking on the phone. Obviously, the situation was much more serious than they thought.
Li Dong's face was a little ugly. He said bitterly, "I know. But don't take any risks. It will take some time for the emergency team to be organized. That's all for now. You guys be careful. "
Li Dong hung up the phone and said to the others, "immediately calculate all our supplies. Bread, biscuits, mineral water, clothes, tents, everything! Confirm the specific information, organize the convoy and rescue team, and go to Sichuan! "
The others responded with a heavy expression and went to prepare.
Li Dong sat in the meeting room and did not move. His mind was blank.
What was going to happen had finally happened!
…
At 14: 40 pm, the earthquake bureau's official website released the news.
At 14: 28 pm, an 8.1 magnitude earthquake occurred in Wen Shan. At 15 pm, the CCTV news channel broadcasted a piece of breaking news. Wen Shan earthquake. The specific damage and casualties had not been confirmed yet.
Not long after, the CCTV news channel launched a special live broadcast program called "Wen Shan Earthquake". At 15: 20 pm, the program began to broadcast continuously …
Less than an hour after the earthquake happened, almost all of Hua Xia and the whole world knew about it.
Wen Shan, this unknown small county, had made the whole world remember it at this moment.
However, this kind of fame was not what Wen Shan wanted to see. In fact, it was not what the whole world wanted to see.
An 8.1 magnitude earthquake. No one dared to imagine it. Was there still hope for Wen Shan?
Even the earthquake in Tang Shan was not this big. However, that earthquake had caused many casualties. More than 30 years had passed, and the people still did not dare to forget it.
Now, an earthquake even bigger than the previous one had happened.
Countless people shed tears and prayed. Countless people stayed in front of their computers and televisions, hoping to get news of the disaster area as soon as possible.
However, more and more news made countless people's hearts turn cold.
The sea route was blocked. Helicopters could not enter the epicenter of the earthquake. The road was cut off, and Wen Shan became an isolated island.
Communication was cut off. There was no news from the disaster area.
The soldiers rushed to the front line. Even if the aftershocks were endless, even if their lives were in danger at any time, they did not care. Everyone only had one thought — to open up the lifeline!
The whole country was mobilized. The government had launched rescue mechanisms.
The news of the earthquake was constantly broadcasted on the television. People were constantly asking on the Internet. How was Wen Shan?
Were they still safe?
When would the lifeline be opened up?
There were also countless people asking where they could donate.
They could not help much, but they could not sit still. Even if the frontline reports had not come, everyone could imagine the tragic situation.
Donating was the only thing they could do to show their sincerity.
There were also people online, hoping to form a supply transport team to enter the disaster area together for rescue.
…
Far away.
Li Dong sat in the conference room for several hours.
He felt that he was very unreasonable. He did not dare to watch television or look at the computer.
He was afraid that he would feel guilty, even if he kept telling himself that he had a clear conscience. He had done everything he could and was only protecting himself.
However, Li Dong would sometimes think, what if, what if I had informed everyone in advance?
Would that have been a different scene?
At some point in time, Shen Qian walked in and said softly, "The rescue team has been organized, and the convoy is ready. Jiangbei has mobilized 30 million yuan of supplies. Along the way, rescue teams from other places will meet up with everyone. This time, a total of 100 million yuan of emergency supplies have been mobilized. In addition, we have organized a rescue team of 100 people. There are doctors and experts. This time, Director Sun will lead the team … "
"No!"
Li Dong rubbed his face and stood up. "I'll lead the team!"
"You?"
Worry flashed in Shen Qian's eyes as she hurriedly said, "The aftershocks have yet to subside. Sichuan is too dangerous. You can't go …"
Li Dong said in pain, "I'll go. I can't feel at ease. You don't understand. It's very torturous for me to sit here. It's more torturous than all of you. Really, I'm under too much pressure. I'll go alone. Even if I can't do anything, at least I can feel more at ease. "
Shen Qian's eyes turned slightly red. Although she could not understand, she could feel the torment in Li Dong's heart.
After a moment of silence, Shen Qian forced a smile and said, "Alright, I'll go with you."
"You? No, you don't have to go. This is my business. "
Shen Qian said with determination, "Either I go with you, or you're not allowed to go! I'm the chairman of the foundation. The rescue team is the foundation's team. If you didn't go, I would have hidden once. I didn't care because I didn't dare to go! But since you're going, I must go! "
Li Dong's heart trembled as he gently hugged her and said, "Alright, then accompany me. Don't worry, the earthquake is over. We will be safe."
"Okay."
Shen Qian replied softly. The two of them did not speak.
At 17 o 'clock sharp, Li Dong brought Shen Qian down from the Far Away building.
Outside the park, ten heavy trucks, three minibuses, and a few sedans were parked.
Li Dong looked around. Many people were waiting under the cars. When they saw Li Dong and company walk over, everyone thought that he was here to encourage them.
However, they never expected Li Dong to say loudly, "When one side is in trouble, help comes from all sides! The Wenshan earthquake has caused the entire country to grieve! Although Far Away is just a private company, we don't dare to forget our roots! This time, Chairman Shen and I will lead everyone to rescue Wenshan and do our best! "
Everyone was stunned. Yuan Chengdao and the others who had come to send them off were also stunned.
Sun Tao, who was about to get into the car, was also stunned!
Li Dong wanted Shen Qian to go personally?
Yuan Chengdao had a bitter expression as he said dryly, "General Manager Li …"
Li Dong interrupted him. "There's no need to say anything. We're only going to rescue them. The earthquake is over, and there's no danger. You and Director Sun stay behind to appease them. Also, continue to prepare supplies. If there's not enough, I'll continue to transfer more! "
Sun Tao also walked over and said worriedly, "General Manager Li, I'll go. Far Away can't leave you …"
"There's no need to say anything else."
Li Dong interrupted him again and exhaled. "It's the same even if I go. If I don't go and take a look, I won't be at ease for the rest of my life."
Although he did not understand why Li Dong was so insistent, it was clear that he had made up his mind. Sun Tao could only look at Tan Yong and say, "Old Tan, protect General Manager Li!"
Tan Yong nodded silently and did not say a word.
After Li Dong got into the car, the convoy gradually drove away.
Yuan Chengdao said bitterly, "The son of a rich family should not sit under the eaves. General Manager Li, General Manager Li was too rash this time!"
In Yuan Chengdao's opinion, Far Away had already done the best they could.
Not only had they mobilized 100 million yuan of supplies, they had also organized a professional rescue team of 100 people. Which company could do this?
But now, Li Dong had personally led the team and even brought Shen Qian with him.
If something were to happen, it would be a calamity that would topple them!
It was already dangerous enough in Sichuan the last time. Yuan Chengdao could not understand why they had to go again this time.
Sun Tao said softly, "He has his own persistence. We don't understand."
