Life Reset: I’m the Master in the Officialdom

Liu Xudong spoke again and pulled Wentao back from the edge of "daze".

"Okay...Okay, then let him try."

Wentao was not worried about what tricks Liu Xudong would play. He was just a driver and the initiative was in his hands. If he was "disobedient", he could just quit at any time.

......

Although Kang Cheng is just a "scholar", he is a skilled driver. He arrived at the first stop of the day, Chensheng Biology, in about half an hour.

Chensheng Bio is a township enterprise that processes corn starch. It has fixed assets of 7.8 million yuan and its annual output value exceeded 18 billion yuan in 2002. It is Long County's well-known "number one taxpayer."

As soon as we arrived at Xincheng Town where Chensheng Bio was located, a "strange smell" came from the car. Wentao was quite familiar with this smell. He had smelled it last time when he was "going to the countryside for research". This was the smell of a mixture of corn fermentation and production wastewater from Chensheng Bio.

Kang Cheng also noticed the secretary's strange behavior, so he quickly closed the car window and turned on the vehicle's "internal circulation".

"Secretary, Chensheng Bio has two firsts in our county. It is the first taxpayer and the company with the highest annual output value. The only shortcoming is that it causes too much pollution!" Liu Xudong said cautiously.

"Ah."

Wentao suddenly remembered that he had also visited this "Chensheng Biology" in later generations. Later generations' Chensheng Biology has developed into a "biomedical" company with an annual output value of tens of billions.

Wentao clearly remembers that when they visited, Chensheng Bio, although it had already installed many "high-tech" environmental protection equipment, had only addressed the "surface" issues and not the root cause.

When he arrived at the company gate, Wentao saw the huge crowd at the gate and couldn't help but frown.

He had already explained in advance the three principles of his research: no eating in the company, no holding meetings in the company, and no setting up research points in the company, but Chensheng Biological Co., Ltd. still held a "warm" welcome ceremony.

In the eyes of Guo Qiang, chairman of Chensheng Biological Company, if the leader has given instructions, it is the leader's problem. If you are really not prepared, then it is your own problem!

From the moment the notice was received from the County Party Committee Office, the entire Chensheng Company began to prepare vigorously, even "stopping production" to conduct several rehearsals for today's welcome ceremony!

"Hello, Secretary Wen, welcome to guide our work!" Guo Qiang bent his waist slightly, took Wen Tao's hands with both hands and shook them tightly, his attitude appearing very humble.

As soon as Wentao got out of the car, the company's chairman Guo Qiang came up to greet him with a smile on his face. He had heard of this newly appointed "county party secretary" Guo Qiang a long time ago.

Moreover, Guo Qiang had already found out that when Secretary Wen was the county magistrate, he had investigated the pollution problem in the "river channel" downstream of their company.

He knew very well that this river was "polluted" by his own Chensheng Company. Otherwise, how could there be a famous "number one taxpayer enterprise" in Long County?

It is said that a new official will start with three things. Guo Qiang just hopes that the new secretary’s first thing will not burn him!

Wen Tao frowned deeply, pulled his hand away, and said, "It's not really guidance. I'm here to research and learn. Please lead the way, Mr. Guo!"

"Okay, Secretary Wen, in order to welcome you, we produced a promotional video for this survey overnight and hired a special commentator. Please come with me to the conference room to watch it!" Guo Qiang said with a smile, and his every word and action was full of flattery.

After hearing what Guo Qiang said, Wentao frowned immediately.

I'm here to investigate the problem!

Why should I watch promotional videos? What can I learn from them?

Wentao never expected that the same thing he used to fool his leaders in the "future" would actually be "seen" today at Chensheng Biology. It really is "passing on the torch forever"!

Wen Tao immediately waved his hand and said, "Chairman Guo, I'm not going to watch the promotional video anymore. Time is tight, and I have several other companies coming to investigate today. I want to see our workshop and see our production process."

Guo Qiang was stunned when he heard the voice. What he didn't want Wentao to see was the workshop. He didn't expect that the new secretary would go straight to the point. However, since the leader had already brought it up, he couldn't refuse!

"Okay...Okay, Secretary Wen, please follow me!"

As soon as we entered the workshop, we were hit by a "foul smell", causing everyone to cover their noses.

Guo Qiang saw this and quickly stepped forward to explain: "Secretary Wen, this is the smell of fermented corn, it's a bit pungent..."

Wentao waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, and led the tour.

Corn kernels are conveyed through a conveyor belt into a fermentation tank for fermentation. Then, through processes such as crushing, soaking, and sedimentation, pure starch is extracted from the corn...

Guo Qiang followed Wentao closely and introduced everything in a torrent of words.

"So what did you do with the extracted corn syrup and protein powder?" Wen Tao asked.

He vaguely remembered that in his previous life, the Morning Life Organisms only extracted starch and were not aware of the gold content of the extracted corn pulp and protein powder, so they were all discharged into the river as "sewage".

Not only did it cause river pollution, it also resulted in a waste of "corporate resources." Judging from the current situation, this Chensheng Company probably hasn't "woke up yet!"

"Secretary...what are you talking about?"

"Corn syrup, protein powder!"

As Wentao spoke, he walked deeper into the workshop, as if he had discovered something.

A huge deep pit appeared in front of everyone's eyes, and workers pushed carts and poured "black liquid" and "white powdery" substances into it.

The deep pit is about ten square meters in size and is about five or six meters deep.

When Wentao saw what the workers were pouring, he immediately understood. This was the corn pulp and protein powder he mentioned. If he guessed correctly, this "deep pit" should lead directly to the river outside!

Seeing this, Wen Tao was a little angry and even more distressed! This was all money! It was secretly discharged as sewage!

"What are you doing?" Wen Tao immediately turned around and asked Guo Qiang.

Seeing that the secret discharge of "sewage" had been exposed, Guo Qiang's back was already soaked with "sweat", and it seemed that there was no point in quibbling anymore.

"Secretary Wen has already conducted research. It seems that the first fire will have to "burn" myself!" Guo Qiang thought to himself.

He simply made up his mind and said tremblingly, "Secretary Wen, this is the wastewater from production, which has been discharged into the river outside."

While Guo Qiang was explaining, he was observing the expression on Wentao's face.

He accepted the loss!

"You're so confused! This is all money!"

what?

Hearing Wentao's words, Guo Qiang seemed a little confused.
