Chapter 899: Daily Life
It was midsummer, and it was hot everywhere in the country, and Huludao was no exception.
Although it was only a little past eight, it was already scorching. But the people in the village who were at home were all gathered in the open space in front of the village committee, men, women, old, and young all out, bustling with noise and excitement, very lively.
In fact, at this time, except for the young people who were studying and working outside, the people who usually went out to work to earn money were all not going, and even many of them had only worked for a month before running back. What's more, even the young people working outside had asked for leave to come back, and the more awesome ones had directly resigned.
This is the charm of demolition...
A cool shed was set up at the entrance of the village committee, and several staff members sent by the government were busy under the shed, fiddling with computers and handling a thick stack of documents.
Finally, everything was almost ready, and without the village secretary talking nonsense, the young staff member directly picked up the big loudspeaker, tried the sound with "feed, feed, feed," and the people who had been chirping just now sat quietly on the small stools they had brought. Some people stood on the side with their arms crossed, silently smoking.
The screaming children were given two slaps and also obediently kept quiet with pouting mouths. They absolutely didn't want to run far away to play; children also loved excitement. Although they didn't understand, people were all gathered here, so of course they wanted to participate like little adults.
"Everyone knows that the Long Teng Group has occupied the land of our Suizhong and Xingcheng. The previous land acquisition work has already ended, and our small villas have already started construction. This time, the government has decided after research not to wait until after the autumn harvest to start construction. Hurry up and start construction early. The sooner the Long Teng Group moves over, the sooner we will get real benefits.
So the government has issued detailed rules for crop compensation, buying out the crops in the fields according to the highest income in the past five years. According to statistics, one mu of corn... greenhouse... everyone knows, no need to write it down, it's all written in the buyout contract.
Everyone knows how much land they have planted themselves. Report it today, and we will register it. Tomorrow, someone will come to verify it house by house according to the registered number. If there is no problem, the government will transfer the money to the bank card we registered before in a week.
I'll say one more thing: money from land acquisition and occupation is easy to come by, but earning money is not easy. Recently, several groups of people have come to our side, some pushing financial management, some pushing health products, and some even starting to gamble, prostitute, and drink heavily. Although our police strike hard, there are always things they can't take care of. Don't go crying to your parents when the money is cheated away. Everyone, pay attention.
During the few years of construction, everyone doesn't need to go out to work. Working for our construction party can earn more than outside. Afterward, the Long Teng Group and our government will also co-run enterprises to arrange work for everyone, all of which will have five insurances and one fund, and the wages are not low.
By the time the Long Teng Group completely moves over, our side will be rich. There will be subways, airplanes, large hospitals better than those in the city, and schools better than those in the city. At that time, there will also be tourism business, and people from outside will come to our side to play.
Good days have just begun, everyone keep your wits about you.
Alright, that's all I'll say. Next, those whose names are called, come over to register and sign the contract."
The action was quite rapid. The land acquisition work was finished last month. It wasn't that there were no people who didn't want to sell and wanted more money, but this place wasn't in the city, and it was good enough that it could be developed. More people understood the truth, and they didn't even need the government to find a way; the villagers solved it themselves. This was a village; to a certain extent, the rules were different from those in the city. The scolding was ugly, the beating was truly painful, and the exclusion was also truly serious.
Especially after experiencing a wave of sweeping away evil before, there were no big gangsters, but a large batch of small rascals who didn't do their proper jobs were cleaned up. The intensity before naturally had an impact on the later period.
So the report reflected that the masses in Suizhong and Xingcheng actively cooperated, and the land acquisition work was completed in less than a month.
And the words of this government staff member were naturally not fake.
Demolition is accompanied by a group of people who cannot protect their wealth. Although this demolition was not as wealth-making as before.
But every family had over 200 square meters of construction land. Long Teng helped them build a small villa with one underground floor and two and a half floors above ground. They decided what it would be built like themselves, and there were even many subsidies for decoration—part paid by Long Teng, and part by the government that didn't take money for land acquisition, trying to let the masses live in good houses with less money.
On this basis, every household would also have hundreds of thousands of cash. In total, the compensation for one household was over one million. According to the per capita disposable income of farmers of over 16,000, this was a family fortune that would take decades to save.
And Wang Yan was very solid; half of the economic compensation was given first, and the houses were started directly. Although the living concentration of these demolition households was not a big place, it also affected the overall construction. The most important thing was the laying of various underground pipelines, which had a significant impact. So the most urgent thing in the remaining few months of this year was to let the masses move into new houses, and at the same time, level the land, as well as various digging and land reclamation operations.
Naturally, it attracted many people with ulterior motives who smelled the scent and were eyeing their money. Eating, drinking, whoring, and gambling were common. Various swindlers also came to wander around. The public security situation was naturally still quite good. Except for the family members fighting each other because of the demolition money, there was basically nothing serious. It was just that the number of people being cheated was increasing day by day...
Here they started calling names and registering, and the people behind also started chatting. Most of them were still chatting around the Long Teng Group, saying things like why the boss of Long Teng was from Chaoyang, why his brain was kicked by a donkey, not going to big cities, but running to this side to build a headquarters, muttering about the messy things of various real estate companies, and speculating whether the big boss of Long Teng would also have to run abroad.
It wasn't just the men in the village; the men in the whole country liked this set, and they were willing to talk about national affairs.
On the side, someone was fiddling with a mobile phone, sending the words of the government staff member just now to the Internet. In fact, from the beginning of the news, they had been sending various videos, and netizens had also been watching the plan being implemented.
Today wasn't just this one village, but many villages were carrying it out synchronously. Statistics, including verification, only took half a month. The equipment and materials behind had already begun to be mobilized and entered the site. Since it had been decided to start construction as early as possible, naturally everything had to be fast.
Although it was Long Teng's headquarters, it was ultimately an emerging high-level urban area, just that it was dominated by a company.
And the construction of an urban area, or high-standard construction, had too many and too great influences. The construction market, material market, high-tech market—in short, all aspects involved in urban construction were very active.
After the official documents of the country were issued, the most sensitive financial market had a positive reaction, and with the subsequent construction budget being raised step by step and continuously disclosed, it had an even more intense reaction.
However, it ultimately had to fall into place, so the procurement of various companies had already begun, and production and transportation all over the country had been carried out. And this time it was different from some government projects and real estate projects in the past. They were all real, and the payment would be settled once the goods were delivered and accepted. This was still advanced by various units, and they would connect with Long Teng later, and Long Teng's finance would transfer these funds out again. The overall operation was quite smooth.
The project really started, the procurement was really implemented, and the payment was really in place. The financial bloggers on the Internet were all relying on Long Teng to make a living.
On the Internet now, there were many people rubbing against Long Teng's heat, and even more people relying on Long Teng to earn traffic. Digital and technology bloggers who experienced products were one category, rich internet celebrities who experienced and evaluated strong-body pills were one category, and because of the TCM attributes of strong-body pills, various popular science, and those who took the opportunity to make money were one category, and those who relied on scolding Long Teng to eat were also one category. Overall, the composition was relatively complex. Some were truly stupid, and some were truly bad.
This time, the pushing of farmland and not wanting grain, and the news of starting construction comprehensively four months early, were spread out, which naturally couldn't avoid criticism. The most talked about were three topics: one was wasting grain, two was occupying a large amount of farmland, violating the red line of farmland, and three was denying Long Teng. All kinds of cats and dogs came out to speak.
It was also at this time that a digital blogger released a video, pushing Long Teng's heat to an even higher peak.
"Hello everyone, I'm Xiao Li. I simply can't believe that such a large company as China's Long Teng Group, which is also a state-level state-owned enterprise, actually has a blacklist of consumers!!!"
"The matter is like this: when Long Teng first launched the first generation of Zhixiang, it was popular all over the Internet. I also followed the trend and bought one to evaluate it for everyone. The video is still there, everyone can flip through it yourself. I think my evaluation was completely on the side of the consumer, and my evaluation was also supported by many netizens. At that time, I even said that Long Teng's artificial intelligence technology was very powerful."
"But what happened? Last month, Long Teng held a smart home product press conference, launched the second generation of Zhixiang, as well as smart home solutions, and a full line of self-developed products, as well as cooperative brand products. As a digital blogger, I also have some smart devices at home. Old fans who follow me should know this; I introduced it during a live broadcast before."
"It just so happened that yesterday I had a whim, feeling that the lights at home were not pleasing to the eye, and wanted to change a few more, so I thought of Long Teng. As a result, I opened the Long Teng official website and chose to buy goods. What do you say I saw?"
At this time, a picture was posted. Above was the order confirmation interface, with a pop-up text prompt: "Hello, because of your inappropriate remarks about our company, our company believes that you do not need our company's products. We have now included you in the company's blacklist, and the restriction will be lifted on January 28, 2034."
"See that, friends? I shot a video to help Long Teng increase heat, and as a result, they actually put me on the blacklist and banned me for ten years. Do you dare to believe this? How come such a large company doesn't let people speak anymore? I even bought their strong-body pills; how could I have thought they would treat consumers like this?"
"In fact, there were people commenting under my video before, but I didn't expect this matter to be true. How does that saying go? Criticism is not free, praise is meaningless. Is such a large company not letting people speak anymore? Can only say good things, not bad things, right?"
"And trouble the official account of Douyishou to explain to me, how did Long Teng know my identity information and accurately put me on the blacklist? Did they leak my citizen information?"
"..."
This kid said a lot. To sum it up, he was very innocent, he was a consumer, what he said before was all facts, and he didn't do anything wrong. He shifted the contradiction to Long Teng, saying that the arrogance of such a large company as Long Teng. He even pulled Huawei out, saying that his evaluation video before was also complained about and taken down by Huawei, and Long Teng was even more awesome than Huawei—people directly built a blacklist and didn't sell to you, and so on.
The influence of bloggers was naturally greater than that of ordinary people. Especially in the past two months, Long Teng had maintained a very high heat. As soon as this video came out, it was all about Long Teng's blacklist incident.
Public anger was aroused, constantly @-ing Long Teng's official account, the smart home account, and even Wei Lan's account, which had always been suspected of whether she was really the boss's wife of Long Teng, as well as the official accounts of Douyishou and other platforms, asking them to give an explanation of how Long Teng knew their identity information and accurately put them on the blacklist.
What's more, various phone calls were made to report and complain about the Long Teng Group.
At the same time, this also fed a group of internet celebrity lawyers, collectively analyzing whether Long Teng's blacklist was illegal and non-compliant, and how they obtained netizens' identity information to accurately put them on the blacklist.
For a time, it was rampant, as if the Long Teng Group was going to be finished. If it were a listed company, it would have fallen by at least five yuan after this wave.
"Have you seen the news? Now the whole Internet is saying that our company has a blacklist. It was on the hot search just now." Zhao Fu pushed the door open, Wei Lan walked in behind with a big belly, and asked Wang Yan like this.
"What's going on?" While Wang Yan was speaking, he got up and walked around the desk, helping Wei Lan sit on the sofa.
He didn't have so much leisure to pay attention to the Internet. He read the news every day, but he also watched the morning news when cooking, and the news broadcast after dinner at night. The things that needed his attention were all on there.
Zhao Fu followed and sat opposite, explaining: "There is a digital blogger on short video who released a video saying he was put on our company's blacklist. It led many people on the blacklist to speculate together, and then triggered public opinion."
"Some people called the departments above to complain and report, making a big fuss, and some even called our customer service phone to scold. Although no one has called me, this kind of public opinion has a bad influence. We should suppress it as soon as possible. This is the video of that digital blogger, and the next one is the video of evaluating the first generation of Zhixiang before. Chairman Wang, you should take a look."
Wang Yan took the phone and watched it. The two videos added up to more than ten minutes. Under double speed, he finished watching the videos very quickly.
"Blacklisting is no problem." He made a conclusion.
People have stances, so the words they say have tendencies. Various internet celebrities and bloggers have the ability to guide. It might be that Long Teng didn't give money, or it might be that competitors gave money. This person's evaluation video could clearly feel that it was not neutral, and it was also over the line in terms of words, carrying a bit of incivility, and the number of fans was less than one million.
Returning the phone to Zhao Fu, Wang Yan said: "Wei Lan, in a while, you arrange for people to release an explanatory video on the whole platform. Explain the corresponding rules for the establishment of the blacklist, as well as the process of obtaining relevant citizen information through legal means, and emphasize our company's views on this blogger's evaluation video. In addition, add a link on our official website to put the blacklist on it, hide the name and ID number, and provide a search and query method."
"Public opinion on the Internet must be taken seriously, but we are upright and have not violated any laws or regulations. It can only be said that we are narrow-minded. There is no need to care about this kind of thing. Just clarify it. The silent ones are the majority; they have their own ability to distinguish. Those who are clamoring are those who have been blacklisted, as well as those who follow the trend without brains."
"Trees attract the wind. Our sudden appearance is not a good thing for many people. There will certainly be no shortage of such things in the future. Pay attention to it from time to time. If it is our problem, handle it; if it is not our problem, clarify it and make people pay the price. For this blogger, let the legal department sue him later to let him learn a lesson."
"Will it work?" Wei Lan was a bit unsure. It was her first time experiencing such a public opinion event. She had been scolded for her account of cats and dogs, but she thought it was nothing, so she didn't tell Wang Yan.
Zhao Fu was also uncertain. He hadn't been in contact with such public opinion events and couldn't grasp the degree.
"Just do as I say, there will be no problem. Our products are indeed sold expensively, but there are more products that are not as good as ours in technology and quality that are sold even more expensively, and they are still popular. We cannot target us just because we are a domestic enterprise; this is wrong. Those who scold us are either having ulterior motives, or their lives are not going well, or they are less intelligent. There is no need to indulge their bad habits."
"Okay, I'll arrange it. If there is no effect, we'll talk about it." Wei Lan didn't say anything more and got up to leave.
Zhao Fu talked about the monitoring system he discussed with the Huludao government. Naturally, it went very smoothly. He could start to develop it specifically, connect it to Huludao's public security and traffic monitoring systems for testing, and then leave.
Wang Yan continued to return to the desk to work; there was never a time when he finished.
Regarding this public opinion event, one cannot underestimate people's quality, nor can one overestimate it.
In fact, Wang Yan had left a hand before, and of course, he also left a hand now. Otherwise, he could completely send letters to companies and enterprises that were not government units, which would make people socially dead. He could even implicate them, blacklisting relevant immediate family members and friends.
In the era of big data, it is not difficult to do these things. The masses have no secrets at all. Then mobilize the legal department to sue them one by one. Those on the blacklist are those that the legal department believes have a high probability of winning if sued. The law is the line of the blacklist.
It's just that it would be too much, and it wouldn't be reasonable; it would be too overbearing. Although the practice was no problem, it was indeed unfriendly to the masses and too radical. Reality is pluralistic, and it is impossible to act so radically.
Now there is still a gap left, and they can use the identity information of parents and relatives to buy. But after Long Teng develops for another two years, they should know what they have lost. After all, a bottle of strong-body pills can be sold for 5,000 to 10,000 yuan, which is the most direct loss.
The reason it is two years is to reserve development time for cross-border groups. However, according to the current order volume of strong-body pills, it will definitely be faster. It might be one year, or it might be two or three months. The specific time depends on when the growth of foreign orders slows down, which can indicate that the group has grown.
In fact, according to the situation Wang Yan understands, some people have already started cross-border transportation. Several backpackers who didn't know the news of the control of strong-body pills were caught at the international airport, carrying dozens of bottles. Unsurprisingly, they were caught, suspected of smuggling, the strong-body pills were confiscated, and it was quite miserable... ===== CHAPTER 900 =====
The reason for the two-year timeframe is to reserve development time for cross-border gangs. However, according to the current order volume for the Body-Strengthening Pill, it will certainly be faster. It might be a year, or it might be two or three months. Specifically, one only needs to watch when the growth of foreign orders slows down; that will indicate the gangs have grown.
In fact, according to the situation Wang Yan has learned about, some people have already started cross-border transport. International airports have caught several backpackers who didn't know the news about the Body-Strengthening Pill being controlled, carrying dozens of bottles. Unsurprisingly, they were caught, suspected of smuggling, and the Body-Strengthening Pills were confiscated—quite miserable...
