From the time travel, I became extraordinary

Chapter 222 Meeting
"West Kowloon Police Station, Criminal Investigation Department, Team 2, Jiang Yaozu!"

After walking a few steps to a police car, Jiang Yao took out his ID and waved it in front of several police officers.

"Hello, senior brother!" Several police officers who were recording statements from workers in the printing factory quickly stood up and saluted Jiang Yao.

"You guys go about your business, I'll just come over to take a look." Jiang Yao nodded lightly with a blank expression, hung his ID around his neck, and stood up and walked into the printing factory.

Although the burning flames have been mostly extinguished, thick smoke is still billowing in many places and the fire is still burning fiercely.

The firefighters were still busy inside. Occasionally, there were survivors who did not have time to escape from the factory because the fire broke out too quickly. They were found by the firefighters and carried out.

In order to protect the fire scene, this area has been blocked by the police, but Jiang Yao is a plainclothes police officer and can move freely inside.

The warehouse was the hardest hit area, and the two bodies carried out by firefighters had already been burned beyond recognition.

Jiang Yao had never been to the Tiantian Printing Factory before, so he naturally didn't know the workers there.

Although he didn't know the names of the two employees who died in the warehouse, he felt heavy-hearted after seeing this scene, and the suppressed anger in his heart was on the verge of exploding.

After walking around the burned factory building, Jiang Yao took a deep breath. He walked out of the blockade and silently took out a cigarette and lit it for himself.

Once a fire breaks out in a place like a printing factory, the flames will spread at an astonishing speed.

It would be fine if the workers in the factory could escape from the fire area as soon as possible.

If you run a little slower, or fall to the ground in panic, the thick smoke will make it impossible to open your eyes, and the heat waves generated by the blazing flames will make you fall into a coma in no time.

After taking a look around, Jiang Yao only saw the two bodies carried out of the warehouse, but there were definitely more than just the two people who died in the entire factory.

Gao Hongsheng, the helmsman of the newspaper group, has also arrived at the scene.

Cheng Feier and her team members, a total of six or seven people, also rushed here after receiving the news.

"Boss!" After seeing Jiang Yao smoking silently, Gao Hongsheng, Cheng Feier and others, although with heavy faces, still took the initiative to come over and greet him.

"Yeah!" Jiang Yao nodded and responded, "Put the other things aside for now."

"The top priority right now is to appease the workers first."

"Whether it's the injured or the dead, the aftermath must be handled properly and no mistakes are allowed."

"Go ahead and do your work. I'll be leaving in a moment."

Sighing, he waved at Gao Hongsheng and others.

Although he was angry about the burning of his own factory, his most urgent task at the moment was to deal with the aftermath of the incident rather than to pursue any responsibility.

Gao Hongsheng, Cheng Feier and others who had just arrived at the scene had a lot of things waiting for them to deal with. After hearing what Jiang Yao said, they nodded and walked towards the crowd gathered not far away.

"Ayao, why are you here?"

Gao Hongsheng, Cheng Feier and others had just left, and Jiang Yao hadn't even finished smoking his cigarette when someone else came over and greeted him.

The man who spoke was called Zhou Zhiming, a sergeant in the Criminal Investigation Team of the West Kowloon Police Station.

Although he and Jiang Yao were not in the same team, they belonged to the same Criminal Investigation Department of the West Kowloon Police Station. They saw each other every day. Although they did not have a deep friendship, they must have known each other.

Raising his head, Jiang Yao looked around. In addition to Zhou Zhiming, several other people from the Criminal Investigation Team had already arrived here.

The jurisdiction of the West Kowloon Police Station is relatively large, and the arson case at the printing factory is clearly a criminal case.

Judging from the situation, the criminal group where Zhou Zhiming is located should have taken over the case.

"I happened to be nearby when the fire broke out, so I stopped by to take a look."

"Since your team has already taken over the case, I will not interfere."

"Let's go. I hope you can catch those arsonists as soon as possible." After saying a few words, Jiang Yao turned and walked towards his motorcycle not far away.

He belongs to Criminal Team 2. Although he is a colleague of the people in Team 1, he is also a competitor.

It is rare for different criminal teams to investigate a case at the same time, unless it is a major case and the heads of both teams have discussed it before they can work together.

Zhou Zhiming came here and seemed to take the initiative to greet Jiang Yao, but in fact he was also reminding him and telling him that their team had already taken over the case.

Jiang Yao came here just to take a look at the situation in the printing factory.

The arsonists haven't been caught yet, and he has no idea who did it. At this point in time, there is no point for him to stay here.

He got on his motorcycle, turned around and sped away.

The next day, at about 3:00 p.m., in a conference room at the Tiantian Newspaper headquarters, "Tell me, what's going on at Tiantian Newspaper? How come the printing factory was burned down so soon?" Jiang Yao, who seldom came here, sat at the head of the long conference table in the meeting room.

He looked sharply at everyone at the conference table.

Sitting on his left was Cheng Feier, and sitting on his right was Gao Hongsheng.

In addition to the two of them, there were also seven or eight managers from the newspaper group attending the meeting.

"Boss, because of our high rebate policy, the Hong Kong Newspaper Association has been extremely dissatisfied with us."

"They sent us several documents asking us to cancel the rebate. We ignored them, and the association has been boycotting and sanctioning us for some time."

"Several printing houses that we had previously worked with directly cancelled our orders. A large number of newsstands and small shops that sold our daily newspapers also could not bear the pressure from the Newspaper Association and refused to sell our daily newspapers."

"But these sanctions alone will have little impact on our Daily News."

"After two consecutive expansions, our own Tiantian Printing Factory can basically meet our needs."

"In terms of newspaper retail, the cooperation with the community not only offset the losses caused by those stations that refused to sell our daily newspaper, but also increased sales compared to before."

"Before the printing factory incident, our Tian Tian Daily had sold 150,000 copies a day. In terms of sales alone, we were already the second largest newspaper in Hong Kong, second only to the Oriental Daily."

"Many of the newsstands and small shops that previously refused to sell our newspapers have recently regretted their decision and want to reapply to sell our newspapers."

"If this trend continues, our daily sales of Tiantian Daily will definitely reach 200,000 copies in another month."

……

Gao Hongsheng and Cheng Feier did not speak, but the other managers at the conference table had angry expressions on their faces. They spoke one after another and roughly recounted the recent situation of Tiantian Newspaper.

According to them, although Tiantian Daily is still making losses every month, its development is indeed very good.

It has only been four or five months since the newspaper group was established, and the small goal that Jiang Yao set on that day has been successfully achieved.

If he is not envied by others, he is a mediocre person. Perhaps, it was precisely because the development of Tiantian Press was too good that some people felt threatened, which led to the arson incident of Tiantian Printing Factory.

"Have you appeased the workers in the printing factory?" Jiang Yao frowned and thought for a while. He looked at Gao Hongsheng next to him and asked.

Although he didn't name him directly, everyone knew that he was asking about Gao Hongsheng.

It was inconvenient for others to take up the conversation. Gao Hongsheng, who noticed this, sighed and said, "Five people have been confirmed dead."

"As for compensation, although there is an insurance company, the company has already given the families of the deceased a satisfactory response as long as the requests are reasonable."

"More than a dozen injured people are still in hospital for treatment. They are not in danger of death. The company will cover all medical expenses and living allowances."

"We will continue to pay the basic wages to the rest of the workers in the printing factory during the period of factory reconstruction."

"Whether it's our workers or their families, their emotions are relatively stable, and nothing bad has happened."

"Our newspaper has stopped publishing today. The other printing houses simply refused to cooperate with us and refused to help us print newspapers."

"If this problem is not solved, by the time the printing plant is rebuilt and the Tiantian Daily resumes publication, the opportunity will have been lost and all our efforts over the past few months will have been wasted!"

……

With a bitter look on his face, Gao Hongsheng sighed.

From an unknown new newspaper to a daily newspaper of this scale, in addition to Jiang Yao's financial support, the hardships he has endured are simply unimaginable to ordinary people.

The child he raised with great difficulty suddenly died in a fire. It is really hard to describe how he feels now.

"We will pay the compensation that is due and we are willing to bear the responsibilities that are due, as long as there are no problems with the workers."

"Is it about newspaper printing? The printing factories in Hong Kong won't accept our orders. Is there a shortage of printing factories in Pengcheng across the street?"

"Given the labor standards and price levels there, it might be cheaper to hand over the order directly to the printing factory there than to print it ourselves."

"This issue cannot be delayed and must be implemented as soon as possible!"

After thinking for a while, Jiang Yao made a suggestion.

There is only a river between Hong Kong and Shenzhen. Some people from Hong Kong have gone to Shenzhen to start their own businesses, but some people are still subconsciously ignoring that place.

Jiang Yao originally came from there. After hearing that the printing factory in Hong Kong would not accept their orders, he naturally thought of the federal side first.
