Chapter 1054 Director Zou was beaten
When Director Zou heard the doorman's shout, he was stunned for a moment, then immediately waved his hand to explain.
"Old comrade, you may have some misunderstandings. I am not trying to force your factory director to death. There is some misunderstanding here."
The old man at the gate immediately said with disdain.
"I've seen many leaders like you. Regardless of whether you forced him to death or not, I'm determined to stick with you."
Seeing the old man at the door being unreasonable, Director Zou was speechless for a moment.
After all, Director Gao's hanging was somewhat related to him.
If it really didn't matter, his superiors wouldn't have asked him to appease the workers at the Central South Machinery Factory.
Seeing that his leader didn't say anything, the secretary next to him was angry. He was determined to defend his leader.
"How dare you talk like that, old comrade? This is Director Zou from the department. Speak politely, or else..."
The secretary hadn't finished speaking when the doorman shouted.
A large group of people came out from the factory gate. Some of them held sickles, some held carrying poles, and some held bricks. They all rushed out.
Looking at the people in front of him glaring at him, Director Zou stepped back again and again.
The two policemen seconded from Chief Wu were also having a headache.
Regardless of whether these people are workers or farmers, once a fight breaks out, it is unclear whether firing warning shots will be effective.
At this moment, a large group of people also appeared in the large vegetable field outside the factory and headed straight for the gate.
Director Zou panicked when he saw this and immediately spoke.
"I also feel sorry for what happened to Director Gao. This time, I came to the Central South Machinery Factory on behalf of the ministry to deal with this matter.
Please don't get too excited, listen to me, I think you also want to change the current situation, right? "
As soon as Director Zou finished speaking, someone in the crowd shouted.
"Don't trust him. He's no different from those city leaders. Beat him up first and avenge Director Gao."
"Yes, he was the murderer who forced Director Gao to death. He didn't want to give us a chance to live."
"Mr. Liu's family were such good people, yet they were forced to hang themselves. It's inextricable from him. Let's not talk about anything else, just beat him up first."
As people in the crowd continued to suggest beating Director Zou up first, Director Zou became even more frightened.
At this time, Director Zou finally understood a saying, which is that when a scholar meets a soldier, he cannot explain his reason clearly.
No matter how Director Zou explained, the workers just refused to buy it and kept pressing forward.
At this time, two security guards who were seconded from Director Wu immediately stood up when they saw the situation getting worse.
The two men stood in front of Director Zou, took out their guns, and fired a shot directly into the sky.
"boom"
As the gunshots rang out, the people on the opposite side were finally frightened and retreated.
This was exactly the effect the two security guards wanted, and they immediately shouted when they saw this.
"What do you want to do? Do you know that beating a leading official is a crime? Let's see who dares to step forward."
As the gunshots rang out, the scene fell silent, but a few seconds later there was a bigger reaction.
"Kill them and avenge Director Gao."
"I'm going to die anyway, so I can just trade my life for another."
“I’ll go first, since my mother is gone and I don’t want to live anymore.
Let these people beat me to death first, and then you can avenge me."
As the gunshots rang out, the scene immediately became chaotic. Countless people continued to approach Director Zou and his companions, shouting to kill them.
As the saying goes, when one has enough food and clothing, he will know what honor and disgrace are. Look at these workers who are more like farmers.
There are so many patches on their clothes that it’s almost impossible to count them, which shows how difficult their lives are.
The chief engineer and his family of the factory hanged themselves, and the factory director also hanged himself when he went to the city of Sijiu.
A few years ago, they had iron rice bowls that everyone envied, but now they are beggars that everyone despises.
Since the factory is directly under the ministry, the municipal government has no need to intervene.
When the factory was booming, the ministry held on tightly, and the local government basically got no benefits.
Now that the factory is failing, you want to pass the burden to the city government?
I'm not stupid. I didn't get any benefits anyway, and now that it has become a burden, don't think about throwing it to me.
Thinking about what kind of life I have been living in the past few years, when I faced Director Zou, all the grievances I had experienced in the past few years suddenly burst out.
He first retreated to the back and protected Director Zou's secretary. He was hit on the head with a carrying pole and blood gushed out immediately.
Once someone took action, others would follow immediately, and then the surrounding carrying poles would rain down on everyone.
At this moment, the two security guards were dumbfounded. They originally thought that they could stabilize the situation immediately by just firing a gun.
After all, when facing a gun, most people will remain rational and no one wants to be shot.
But now the situation has become that they are afraid. The only thing they can do is to protect their guns, cover their heads with their hands, and try to avoid getting hurt as much as possible.
Even the two security guards were like this, so Director Zou was even more unbearable.
First, he was hit on the back with a club, and then he was hit on the arm by something unknown. The piercing pain made Director Zou scream.
Fortunately, the secretary beside him was relatively loyal, even though his head was bleeding continuously.
But when he saw Director Zou being beaten, he immediately threw himself on Director Zou and helped Director Zou bear most of the injuries.
The gatekeeper had some prestige in the factory, and he saw that the big leader from the old city was about to be beaten to death.
He immediately rushed into the crowd, pulling back those who were blood-thirsty, and shouted loudly.
"That's enough, that's enough. If you keep fighting, someone will die. Stop it, stop it."
"boom"
As gunshots were heard again around them, everyone finally calmed down.
This time it was the leader of the municipal government who came with people.
They had already received the news that Director Zou from the ministry was coming to the Central South Machinery Factory for research and asked them to be responsible for the reception.
But Director Zou didn't have time to get close to these local leaders. In his opinion, this trip to the Central South Machinery Factory was not difficult at all except for revitalizing the factory.
After arriving at the factory, he only needs to reveal his identity and the workers will beg him to allocate funds quickly.
He only needs to publicly promise to pay the back wages, then ask his secretary to go to the bank to withdraw money and pay the overdue wages on the spot. Director Zou is the savior of these workers.
By that time, whatever Director Zou says will be the final word.
But when the carrying pole fell on him, Director Zou was also confused. He really couldn't understand how things turned out like this.
Don’t these workers want wages anymore?
With the arrival of a large number of police officers, the crowd was separated.
"Director Zou, Director Zou, are you okay?"
Director Zou was already stunned by the beating. The leaders of the municipal government looked at the secretary who was protecting Director Zou, who had already fainted.
shouted immediately.
"Hurry and send Director Zou and the others to the hospital. Don't let any of these people go. Arrest them all."
