Setting Off the Fire

Chapter 516 Setting Off the Fire
The county head of Anning County was so surprised he almost jumped up.

He wanted to bring the problem up now, but the process should be slow and controllable, not like Lin Xiaohe who just flipped the lid off!

What's the difference between this and sitting on a powder keg and setting it on fire?
The host looked anxiously at the leader, asking if the exchange meeting would still proceed.

"Comrade Lin Xiaohe..."

Just as the host was trying to find an excuse to get Lin Xiaohe off the stage, he heard a lot of noise coming from outside the government building.

"What's going on? Let's go check it out."

As soon as the auditorium doors opened, everyone could hear the slogans outside.

"We need to eat, we need to live!"

"We want to hear the content of the exchange meeting."

"We are the masters of the country and the masters of the factory. Why can't we listen to the exchange meeting?"

Outside the auditorium, a junior staff member, sweating profusely and looking anxious, reported to his superior: "Several hundred workers have gathered outside, and many more are rushing over. We have already notified the Municipal Public Security Bureau to come and maintain order."

I'm so rough!

How could the county standing committee possibly sit still? If they weren't careful, things would escalate, and the entire leadership team, from top to bottom, would be implicated.

The leaders rushed out to appease the workers. The workers had only one demand: they didn't want to be deaf and blind anymore, they wanted to learn more about the company's reform policies, and they also wanted to hear more about the experiences shared by Lin Xiaohe, the only successful representative.

Is this request excessive? I don't want money; I just want to learn more and exercise my legitimate rights.

Lin Xiaohe walked out slowly and said to the county head, "Leader, if they want to hear it, let them hear it. Our Changhong Factory is upright and honest, and there's nothing we can't tell outsiders."

The leader gritted his teeth in fury: "Was it you who did this?"

"Why would you think that about me? I didn't have time to come. When the county notified me of the exchange meeting, I was still in Dalian."

Things have escalated to this point; preventing these workers from attending the exchange meeting would cause a huge uproar.

The county head stared coldly at Lin Xiaohe: "Then you should prepare to speak. As cadres, we must have a broad perspective, not act impulsively, and have a long-term vision, not be limited by one factory or one place. A 20-year-old deputy section chief has a long road ahead of her."

The staff quickly brought over a loudspeaker to broadcast Lin Xiaohe's speech live.

Lin Xiaohe chuckled. "Only 12 factories? What's the big deal about lifting the lid?"

A crackling sound of electricity first came from the speaker, followed by Lin Xiaohe's energetic voice.

"Thank you for your trust, fellow villagers. I, Lin Xiaohe, am not ashamed to say a few words from the bottom of my heart."

"We were just talking in the auditorium that our enterprise reform needs to be multifaceted, not just about reforming the workers. Many factories are unable to keep up with the market and lack competitiveness, but at the same time, their management has major problems."

"Slush funds, off-the-books accounts, unauthorized entertainment, asset losses, and so on. I don't need to say these things; everyone knows them in their hearts."

Holy crap!

Lin Dadan, this is going to cause a huge disturbance in Heaven!

How could you say something like that in public?!
Can we put this out in the open? Huh?!

Do you even care about organization or discipline anymore?

But under these circumstances, no one dared to stop Lin Xiaohe from speaking out.

Lin Aiguo, who rushed over, fainted upon hearing Lin Xiaohe's words. His future was over!
Lin Xiaohe didn't care about any of that. This was a stage she had painstakingly built for her opera performance, so naturally she would sing until the very end.

"I am not against enterprise reform or mergers. However, enterprise reform and mergers must be subject to strict legal and regulatory supervision and cannot be decided by one person alone. After enterprise reform, we cannot, like some factories, simply push employees into society and leave them to fend for themselves. Instead, we must do a good job in the follow-up work of social security integration, medical insurance integration, and employment guidance."

Wei Dapao, with tears welling up in his eyes, led the crowd in shouting, "Director Lin is right!"

"That's right, we support what Director Lin said!"

Lin Xiaohe: "Based on my limited understanding, I would like to make two points. First, corporate reform is imminent, and the situation will become increasingly severe in the future. Whoever takes the lead first will have a greater chance of survival."

These words weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.

The situation is already bad enough; is it going to get even worse?
"Secondly, our county leadership should also take a stand and establish an enterprise reform supervision team to thoroughly investigate the problems in each factory. I personally suggest that the Discipline Inspection Commission, the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Commission, and the Audit Bureau be invited to participate. To avoid any appearance of impropriety, I will not join this supervision team."

This caused an uproar among everyone.

The factory leaders felt a chill run down their spines, inwardly cursing Lin Xiaohe for being such a scoundrel. After setting off the firecrackers, he ran away in a flash, leaving behind such a mess!
But Lin Xiaohe's words resonated deeply with the people; look at the deafening applause, it almost turned the world upside down.

The old factory manager, panting heavily, pulled out his pager and hurriedly called the security department of Changhong Factory.

Damn it, if they don't send some people over soon, their factory director Lin might not be able to leave this compound!

……

Outside the node boundary marker, two teardrop-shaped warships stirred up ripples in the darkness.

"This is one of the node worlds where the divine heir is imprisoned. The one in charge of guarding it is the intermediate domain lord, Fang."

The two warships maintained a certain distance from the boundary marker and rotated.

"Shall we go in?"

"Qian Fang has a bad temper and only obeys the old god's orders. Even if we are here on the orders of the second in line of succession, he probably won't recognize us."

"Should we contact him first?"

"Row!"

A wave of information rippled outwards from the boundary marker, and analysis of the ripples indicated that it originated from the Royal Fang.

"I don't need your help; everything is under control."

After the two high-level domain lords who rushed over analyzed the information flow of the canine tooth, they also felt that there should be no problem with this node world.

"Enterprise reform is an inevitable trend, and the pain and sacrifices of reform are unavoidable. Shen Zun is just a deputy section chief in a small county town; he cannot possibly fight a losing battle with an egg."

"Yes, if she changes herself and forcibly integrates into the system, she will only become part of the boundary marker."

The Yuan Shen Kingdom's control and familiarity with many things far surpasses that of wild Domain Lords.

What is the essence? What is oneself? Is consciousness itself constructed from memories and experiences? If one loses memories and past experiences, is one still oneself?
The Yuan Shen Kingdom has already reached a conclusion on these issues.

But Lin Xiaohe, who has just awakened the primordial black hole, certainly wouldn't know any of this!

It can be said that this node world targeting the divine heir Lin Xiaohe is a dead end.

After discussing it, the two high-ranking deities decided to lie in wait near the boundary marker.

If even a one in a billion chance happens and Lin Xiaohe successfully breaks through to the node world, they can take advantage of Lin Xiaohe's weakness and launch a coordinated attack to completely eliminate the awakened Lin Xiaohe from all sides!
