Sun Yiguo's face was so gloomy at this moment that it seemed as if water could drip out of it. His iron-blue face had turned into a bottomless dark brown, which made people afraid to look at him.

You have to know that he is not only the top official in the government, but also the real controller behind this new mine. If the miners trapped underground meet with any misfortune, no matter how you measure it, he will not be able to absolve himself of any responsibility and escape unscathed.

At this moment, Sun Peilong, director of the Safety Supervision Bureau, is busy investigating the situation.

However, what is worrying is that up to this moment, no effective means or methods of rescue have been found. The only thing everyone can rely on is the rescue force from the provincial department.

Upon hearing this news, Sun Yiguo felt his chest churning and he almost vomited blood on the spot.

What does 'no effective rescue measures so far' mean?

Such huge amounts of money are invested every year to add various advanced rescue equipment, are they all just for show?

If this group of workers cannot be rescued successfully in the end, Sun Yiguo will be in trouble!

There is no doubt that this will become the first major safety accident that shocked the whole country in 2004!

Thinking of this, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on Sun Yiguo's forehead.

However, after an in-depth and detailed investigation, it was found that the culprit that caused the incident was precisely the mining company's excessive and uncontrolled mining.

This short-sighted behavior of blindly pursuing production and profit maximization ultimately led to this irreparable disaster.

According to workers at Tieshan Iron Mine Company, extremely severe crustal subsidence has frequently occurred inside the mine.

According to relevant regulations, they had already reported the situation to the company truthfully, but what is surprising is that the company did nothing about it, neither took any countermeasures nor added necessary protective equipment, and continued to operate regardless and recklessly!

Hearing this, Wen Tao's face turned ashen with anger. He slammed the table and shouted angrily, "This is simply lawless!"

However, there is actually another important factor, which Sun Peilong does not dare to reveal easily at the moment.

It turns out that when the mine project was initially inspected and accepted, someone secretly made a tip, allowing it to slip through. The Safety Supervision Bureau had never seriously conducted a formal safety assessment.

Sun Peilong had actually been paying attention to this mine for a long time.

It's a pity that this is a key project personally designated by the mayor Sun Yiguo. Faced with such a powerful project, how could he dare to say a word?

Although Secretary Wentao always regards safe production in the mining industry as a top priority and places it in the first place.

But the problem is that on one side is the municipal party secretary and on the other side is the mayor. As the director of the Safety Supervision Bureau, Sun Peilong dared not say much.

Therefore, Sun Peilong had a foreboding premonition that something serious would happen in this mine sooner or later. However, he never expected that this day would come so soon.

Many comrades in the bureau received "benefits" from this mine, including Sun Peilong, but he didn't dare take any!

"Secretary, Mayor, the primary responsibility for this matter still lies with Tieshan Mining Company..."

"Alright, now is not the time to assign blame. Li Mingyang, immediately take the comrades from the Public Security Bureau and take control of Tieshan Mine's boss, Gu Youwei. Make sure he firmly cooperates with us and does a good job rescuing the trapped employees. Tell him that if anyone dies, I will definitely not forgive him!"

"Yes, Secretary!"

Secondly, we must immediately establish a leadership group for the Tieshan Mine rescue effort. This group will be co-chaired by myself and Mayor Yiguo. The heads of various municipal departments will also serve as deputy group leaders. From this moment on, the Bengang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government will declare a state of emergency. No one can stand aside; we must act, collaborate closely, and devote our utmost efforts to the rescue effort! Furthermore, we must also properly arrange the aftermath and provide effective comfort to the families of the trapped. These tasks are of paramount importance and require everyone's high attention. I would like to remind the Discipline Inspection Commission to establish strict rules and regulations. Anyone found to be evasive, indifferent, or lax in their work will be dealt with severely and without leniency.
