Chapter 1339 –
“Boss, it has blown up. Those companies had gone on strike!” Wu Zhigang reported. Although he is panicking, he can still report without stuttering.
Wu Zhigang had worked for Feng Yu for a long time and had gone through many ups and downs. He can still keep his composure when something happens.
“Which company?” Feng Yu asked calmly.
“All of them. The companies who had their advertisements taken down had all gone on strike at the same time. It seems it is coordinated. The companies’ management had led their employees to go on strike, and they demand to meet the Mayor and Party Secretary.”
Feng Yu frowned for a second and smiles. “Terrific! Get Sina, Tencent, and the rest, to report about this. Let everyone know why they are on strike and who had organized the strikes.”
“Boss, are you saying we are going to blow it up further?” Wu Zhigang opens his eyes wide.
“That’s right. I find this matter is not big enough.” Feng Yu is not worried about things being blown out of proportion. He will use it to his advantage.
You all want to blow things up to gain attractions? Then I will give you a hand and let more people know about this. Feng Yu does not mind taking responsibility for this.
Anyway, Feng Yu was scolded by many foreigners for not donating in other countries. But his donations in China are the highest in history, and no one might exceed him in the future.
Things had gotten out of hand, and Feng Yu will give these companies a killing blow!
…….
“Eh, have you saw the news on Sina? Shanghai Ri Hua workers are on strike, and it’s quite serious.”
“Tsk… that’s old news, and I knew about it an hour ago. Also, that is not the only company that is on strike. More than a dozen companies are on strike, and I heard they are treated unjustly.”
“It must be the local authorities who don’t care about the workers’ welfare. My father had worked in a factory in the past, and after he retired, he set up a small restaurant. His earnings are much more than his previous salary.”
This person’s thinking is similar to many others. Whenever something happens, they will make assumptions based on their own experiences.
Most people will claim to be objective, but they will side with their family members or friends when something happens.
When the incident has nothing to do with them, they will be affected by their emotions and side with the victims.
But many victims are not the real victims, and people will judge based on what they see.
Feng Yu had seen such incidents in his previous life. A woman laid on the ground, crying and shouting that the police officer had hit her, and people started scolding the police. But when they turn around, the woman is gone. Someone in the crowd said that he had called the police because that woman had given him counterfeit money.
That officer had not hit anyone and only wanted to bring that woman back for investigation. But after the woman created a scene, she escaped. The crowd realized that woman must be guilty or else she will not run away.
That’s why what you see might not be the truth, but most people only believe what they see.
If what they see is real, then how are you going to explain magic tricks?
Feng Yu is sure that those workers are misled into going on strike. They don’t know what is going on and are instigated by others.
……..
“Secretary, something is not right. Why are the online news websites reporting on the strike? We had suppressed it on our side, but we cannot do anything about the news on the internet.”
“That’s right. Feng Yu has shares in those internet companies, but why is he not stopping them from reporting? If this incident blows up, it will not benefit him.”
“Don’t be anxious. Maybe this is instructed by Feng Yu. Although this incident will affect us, he will also be implicated. He will have ways to settle this, and we don’t need to worry about anything.”
These companies realized that they could only meet the Deputy Mayor after going on strike. No other higher-ranking government officials are willing to meet them. It’s as if the authorities are not concern about their strikes.
Something is wrong. A strike is a big issue in any country, and even the media had reported it. Are they not scared of the higher-ups questioning them?
These companies had played victims to gain sympathy. Relatives of the employees are voicing their support for them.
Those relatives don’t know what is happening. They only know the companies cannot pay their employees because someone had cheated their money.
All these are lies. The advertisements are taken down, and the companies need to pay compensation. But they had not paid, and why are they unable to pay their workers?
The local government knew about this, and that’s why the leaders continued to avoid them.
The higher-ups noticed this issue three days later and called to question the local companies. If the strikes continue, news of it will spread to other countries!
Feng Yu’s retaliation had just started.
…….
“XX company had made false advertisement and violated the advertising laws. Not only did they not reflected on themselves, they even instigate their workers to go on strike. They told their workers that the Government had confiscated their money! This is ridiculous!”
“XX company was a state-owned company, but it becomes a joint-venture after foreign investors invested in it. But the foreign company breached their contract and took over our brand. They took over the company when they have management rights. Our national brand had become theirs, and they are still advertising themselves as a domestic brand. This is cheating!”
“They had made it seem legal when they took over the company at that time. But they had breached the contract and exploited the loopholes in the contract. Now, they are being punished, and they instigated their workers to go on strike. This is against the law!”
“The workers should think rationally. The Government is working things out with those companies, and the companies should not owe the workers their salaries. They are all being used by the company!”
News articles started appearing on the internet, and government agencies even issue some. Even the local TV stations started reporting about the strikes. The workers realized those foreigners had used them!
