"I don't agree! We've been working here for eight years. How can we be dismissed just like that! "
"I've been here since the first day the plant was built. How can I leave just because you say so! Manager Guo, you have to give us an explanation. "
"That's right! Even if Tiansong Water takes over the plant, doesn't Tiansong Water still need people? "
"Manager Guo, please help us talk to Tiansong Water. We're all experienced workers. It's better to use us than to hire new people, right?"
"That's right. Our plant will be taken back by the government sooner or later. We're still a state-owned enterprise. They can't just dismiss us like that, can they?"
Before Chen Guang even took two steps inside, he heard a commotion coming from inside.
Obviously, these employees of the Tongshan Industrial Park wastewater treatment plant who were about to be liquidated were not willing to be dismissed just like that.
To put it nicely, they had feelings for the plant.
To put it bluntly, these people had worked in a wastewater treatment plant that had not been up to standard for eight years. They might have a lot of work experience, but in the eyes of others, it was all experience of substandard operation.
Today, they were dismissed. It would be difficult for them to find a job in the same industry in the future.
Everyone knew Tiansong Water's ability. When Boss Xia was here, the treatment was substandard. However, when the owner changed and the wastewater treatment plant was completely renovated, the plant came back to life and could operate stably. Then, the jobs at the Tongshan Industrial Park wastewater treatment plant would become an iron rice bowl that would never change.
However, Chen Guang felt that the employees were overthinking it. The Tiansong Water Works wasn't a small enterprise, but a massive water company that spanned across the country. It had its own mature hiring system, especially for middle-level management and above. It was even more impossible for them to continue using the employees of the Summer Light Environmental Protection, who could be said to be failures among failures.
Of course, from a bystander's point of view, Chen Guang could also understand their feelings.
But as for whether they could stay or not, it depended on their ability.
Just as he was about to hurry inside, he heard a familiar middle-aged man's deep voice.
"Quiet! Everyone be quiet! Don't be agitated. Listen to me. Regarding everyone's arrangements, Boss Xia had already asked the people from Tiansong. Tiansong also had their own rules. Even if they still wanted to hire us, they would have to wait for the industrial factory to stop working first. Then, everyone would come and hire us one by one. What's the use of arguing with me now? "
"Manager Guo, don't try to fool us. I'm afraid you've already discussed it with them, right? "
"That's right. He only cares about himself. He's too selfish!"
"Also, according to the laws and regulations, even if we are to be dismissed, we can't just pay three months' salary, we still have to give N + 1 severance pay! Manager Guo, ask Xia to come back and give us an explanation! "
Bang!
The sound of someone slamming the table came from inside, and then Manager Guo's voice came again, "Are you done?!"
After this roar, the conference room finally quieted down.
Chen Guang was not in a hurry to go in. He already knew who was inside and was pleasantly surprised. He did not expect to meet an old acquaintance here.
Now, he wanted to see how this old acquaintance of his planned to deal with the situation in front of him.
After waiting for about ten seconds, Manager Guo sighed heavily, "Sigh, it's not like you don't know about Boss Xia's situation. He almost lost all his money just to run this factory. Now, he finally found a sucker to take the blame. Back then, Boss Xia spent tens of millions of his net worth here. Before he left, he still thought of leaving us half a million as compensation. Isn't that very benevolent? Also, don't say that I'm colluding with Tiansong. I want to, but they don't like me. When it's time to rehire, you guys at least have a chance to stay. I, Guo Ming, will definitely have to pack up and leave. "
"Only I'm so easy to talk to. If it was someone unreasonable, forget about compensating you guys, I would take the money and run. N + 1? I don't even have a single cent! Our Xiaguang Environmental Protection may look like a transfer, but in fact, it's no different from bankruptcy liquidation. Do you know what bankruptcy liquidation is? Even if you don't pay the money you owe the bank, save your severance pay! Alright, I'll call your names to come up and get the money. Take the money and leave. If you think it's too little and don't want to take it, then fine, I'll just put it in my bag! "
After being yelled at by Guo Ming, the people below were much more obedient.
"Liu Tao, three months of compensation, a total of 9300, count it yourself."
Guo Ming immediately began to count the money. When he took out the money, he sighed again, "Sigh, the factory has become like this. Boss Xia has also done his best. Do your best and leave it to fate. Xiao Liu, you're a good lad. You're the vanguard of our mechanical repair class. It won't be difficult for you to find a factory after you leave. "
Xiao Liu choked and said, "Thank you, Manager Guo."
"What are you thanking me for? This money was given by the owner of our factory. If you want to thank someone, thank that sucker."
Chen Guang, who was outside the door, covered his heart with his hand. As the sucker himself, he felt an inexplicable sadness.
"Oh right, Manager Guo, what do you think is going on with our owner? He spent so much money to buy our factory, but in the end, he didn't come to take it over. What is he thinking? Is he just going to watch all this money go down the drain? "
Guo Ming, "Who knows. Maybe after he bought our factory, he realized that there's nothing he can do. Out of sight, out of mind?"
"Or maybe he's stupid?"
"Maybe?"
"Or maybe he's too rich and doesn't care about this little bit of money?"
"Alright, Xiao Liu, after you get the money, get out of the way. There are still so many people behind you. Anyway, a sucker is a sucker. Even if he's regretting it now, it doesn't matter. Even if he's our new boss now, he can only be here for a few days. The people from the inspection team will come next week. You guys can leave easily, but I still have to stay with Worker Yang and the others to guard the last shift. I'm guessing that I'll be scolded badly by others. "
"Manager Guo, I want to leave too."
A hoarse and deep voice of a middle-aged man came from the side.
"Old Yang, don't mess around. You're our head worker. We can't even meet the standards. If you leave, what if something happens this week?"
That Old Yang sighed, "What else can happen? It's already so rotten. It doesn't matter if I stay here or not. The earlier I leave, the earlier I can go to Wujing to find my son. I can ask him to find me a job as a security guard. Sigh. "
This head worker called Old Yang was quite pitiful. From the head worker of the sewage treatment plant to a security guard, the difference was quite big.
But with his reputation in this industry, being the head worker of a sewage treatment plant that didn't meet the standards for eight years, it was a joke.
"You can find a job as a security guard anytime. Don't be in a rush. I can't give you the money today. I'll give you the money next week after the inspection team leaves."
"Manager Guo, don't force me! Are you giving me the money now?! "
"No!"
"Hey Guo, stop being arrogant. You've only been here for less than half a year and you're already trying to act all high and mighty. I don't like you for a long time. Give me the money!"
"The industrial plant hasn't been doing well for so many years. It's all because of you. Look at your attitude!"
"What attitude can I have? Didn't I try my best? This broken plant is just like this. It's the same no matter who comes! "
Inside, Worker Yang and Guo Ming were getting more and more rowdy. There was a loud bang, and suddenly there was a commotion inside.
"Don't! Old Yang, don't … "
"Hold them back! Hold them back! Don't push! "
"Old Guo, don't lower yourself to Old Yang's level!"
They started fighting.
Chen Guang, who was eavesdropping outside, quickly stepped forward and pushed the door open.
He used a bit more force and the meeting room door flipped over and hit the wall with a thunder-like bang.
Guo Ming and Worker Yang, who were fighting, stopped and turned to look at Chen Guang at the same time. The other employees in the meeting room also did the same, not knowing who this uninvited guest was.
Guo Ming's eyes widened. "Chen Guang!"
Of course, he remembered this student.
Chen Guang looked at Guo Ming, whose hair was in a mess and whose face was covered in scratches. He scratched his head embarrassedly. "Hello, Teacher Guo."
That's right. This Guo Ming was the one who stood up for Chen Guang when he was dealing with Wang Ren. He testified in court and helped to contact Leng Qin.
He was also Wang Ren's predecessor.
Bang!
While Guo Ming was still in a daze, Yang Gong regained his senses and threw a sneak attack on Guo Ming's face, causing him to see stars.
Other people in the meeting room started to recognize Chen Guang, but Guo Ming and Worker Yang were still fighting. It was an awkward moment and they didn't know what to do.
Chen Guang walked up and pressed his hand on Worker Yang's shoulder. The head worker's body went limp and he was lifted up by Chen Guang.
Guo Ming didn't take the opportunity to fight back. He held his bleeding mouth and looked at Chen Guang awkwardly. "Chen Guang, why are you here?"
Chen Guang sighed. "Sigh."
Guo Ming's eyes widened and he pointed at Chen Guang. "Don't tell me … you …"
Letting out another sigh, Chen Guang pointed at his face and replied, "That's right. I'm the one that you're talking about, the one that's filled with regret."
"Hey! You … you're stupid! "
Guo Ming stomped his feet again. He was worried about his money.
He knew that the person who took the blame was called Chen Guang, but he didn't see his ID number and only knew that it was his name. Plus, he had been paying attention to Chen Guang's news. He didn't think that the popular Chen Guang would be so bored as to buy the doomed Xia Guang Environmental Protection.
He wouldn't believe that the two Chen Guang were the same person.
After all, Chen Guang was a smart person in his heart back then, and he didn't seem to have a screw loose in his brain.
Now, he had to believe it even if he didn't want to.
The eyes of Worker Yang, who was massaging Chen Guang, lit up. "Boss Chen, it's good that you're here. You have to pay the severance fee, right? If not, we'll go to the Ministry of Manpower! "
Chen Guang turned around and glared at him. "When did I say I'm going to pay the severance fee?"
"What do you mean?"
Worker Yang struggled, and Chen Guang let him go.
However, Chen Guang paid no attention to him. He walked to the podium and knocked on the table. "Quiet! Quiet down!"
