Chapter 576 Acceptance

The migrant worker contractor who contracted the gymnasium was named Sun Changjiu. When he received a notice issued by the Urban Construction Bureau about the suspension of the gymnasium project, he almost fainted. This time he heard a friend say that the construction project of the city gymnasium would be subcontracted, which would be more than 12 million yuan. If it was done well, he could make about one million yuan. In that case, he would send it.

Over the years, Sun Changjiu has been working in various townships in Guyuan County. Although he does not have the relevant qualifications to do the project, he has gained positive reviews and gained some popularity for his honesty and trustworthiness and attention to quality.

Nowadays, there are construction projects, and large companies usually take over the project, and then subcontract or subcontract to other companies. These companies then subcontract to others. In this way, those who work on the construction site are usually a group of migrant workers. Of course, more formal units naturally have relevant technicians and managers. It is still rare for those who have all given all of them to a group of migrant workers without any qualifications.

After he took over the project this time, he paid 100,000 yuan just for the introduction fee, and then advanced the money to enter the site. The life of a group of migrant workers. After he threw in the 1 million yuan he earned in the past few years, he also borrowed more than one million from relatives and friends. Now the project has been stopped. If all his money is wasted, what can he do?

After receiving the notice that the project was taken back, he was stuck there for a long time. Outside the door was the group of brothers who had been working on the construction site for two months. These dozens of people have not received a penny of salary yet.

"Friends, my Sun Changjiu is sorry for everyone. I am incompetent and has implicated everyone. Now the project has been recovered and my money is gone. But don't worry, I owe you my salary. Even if I am a cattle and horse, I will pay you in the future. Come in and I will write you IOU, which means I, Sun Changjiu, is sorry for you." Sun Changjiu couldn't help but say with a gloomy look.

These migrant workers knew that Boss Sun had lost a lot this time and felt very sympathetic. However, their family was waiting to get the money back, and this little money was not a small number for their family, so they walked in silently. Sun Changjiu took out his pen and was about to write an IOU.

At this time, a cadre from the command center walked into the door. Seeing Sun Changjiu looking at him in surprise, he said, "Boss Sun, Director Zhou asked you to go there."

Hearing Director Zhou looking for him, Sun Changjiu had to put down his pen and said apologetically to the group of workers: "I'm sorry, everyone wait for me for a while, and I'll go back."

Sun Changjiu followed the cadre to Zhou Mingqiang's office and said humbly to Zhou Mingqiang who was sitting behind the desk: "Director Zhou, come to me."

Since I learned that he was subcontracting the project from someone else's hand, and the matter was also exposed to the province, no one is willing to pay attention to Sun Changjiu. Now that he sees Director Zhou, he naturally feels awe.

"Boss Sun is here, you can sit down first." Zhou Mingqiang raised his head, looked at him, and then said to the cadre: "Xiao Wang, go and do your business, I'll talk to Boss Sun about something."

After the cadre named Xiao Wang went out, Zhou Mingqiang walked out from behind the desk, poured a glass of water in person, handed it to Sun Changjiu, and then sat on the chair and said, "Boss Sun, I called you here this time to understand the situation of your engineering team. I heard that you have made a lot of money for the gymnasium project this time. Now the gymnasium project has been taken back and needs to be re-issued. If you have any difficulties, you can tell me, and I can see if I can help you."

When Sun Changjiu heard Zhou Mingqiang say this, he couldn't help but be shocked. Something called warm current rose from his heart. Although Director Zhou was young this time, he was a very prestigious figure in this command center.

"Why, don't you believe what I said?" Zhou Mingqiang said with a smile.

"Thank you Director Zhou, thank you," Sun Changjiu was so excited that he said thank you twice. You must know that if you can establish a good relationship with Director Zhou this time, even if you lose all the project, you will still have time to get back.

So, Zhou Mingqiang told Director Zhou in detail about his situation. After hearing this, Zhou Mingqiang asked with concern: "Boss Sun, I want to ask something, don't mind."

"Director Zhou has something to ask, I will know everything."

"Okay, Boss Sun, I know you have been working on the construction site of the gymnasium for two months. I would like to ask, have you been working on the engineering work in these two months strictly according to the original design? And can the quality of the project be guaranteed to meet the requirements?"

When Sun Changjiu heard Zhou Mingqiang ask this, he immediately said with confidence: "Director Zhou, you can rest assured. Although we are not a regular company, I have been in the construction industry for nearly ten years and know the importance of project quality. We guarantee that we will carry out construction strictly according to the design, and there is no act of cutting corners. You can rest assured about project quality."

"Haha, that's good. Actually, Boss Sun, you may not know that the winning bid price of our gymnasium was 22 million. As far as I know, if you took it from someone else, the project cost is only 12 million. Think about it, a project worth more than 20 million will be built with you for more than 10 million, can we rest assured?" Zhou Mingqiang said with a smile.

"What? Two thousand two million?" Sun Changjiu was shocked.

Seeing Sun Changjiu's surprised look, Zhou Mingqiang continued: "Boss Sun, the city has decided to accept the projects completed by your engineering team. If they meet the engineering design and quality, they can pay according to the original budget. You should be prepared and the people from the Construction Bureau will come to inspect the project quality tomorrow. Mayor Liu is very concerned about you."

The last sentence made Sun Changjiu understand that the project he had done could be accepted. Mayor Liu was helping him. Gratitude naturally arose. Although Mayor Liu had inspected the construction site in Times Square several times, he had never spoken to him. Unexpectedly, he was concerned about his own affairs. Why didn't he touch him?

At the Standing Committee, I was not prepared to accept the construction of the gymnasium. After all, this was built by a group of migrant workers. However, Liu Siyu said that these migrant workers were not easy. Although this project violated the rules, they had worked hard for more than two months. It is said that the contractor named Sun also paid more than two million yuan. If the work they did meet the design standards and quality requirements, they could consider conducting acceptance and minimize their losses. When other Standing Committee members saw Deputy Mayor Liu say this, it was naturally difficult to attack. Therefore, they had a decision to accept this part of the construction projects.

Sun Changjiu returned to the construction site, and the group of subordinates were still waiting there, and a few were squatting on the ground and smoking. When Sun Changjiu saw them, he shouted happily: "Brothers, we are saved. The city has decided to accept the work we do. If the acceptance is qualified, we will pay our project payment according to the original budget. We will all clean up the construction site immediately and prepare to welcome the acceptance of the relevant departments tomorrow."

The group of migrant workers' expressions became lively, their eyes shining, and they shouted loudly: "Let's go." So they all ran to the construction site happily to clean up.

When Sun Changjiu saw all this, he suddenly felt like he had a life after a disaster.

The next day, the person in charge of the project acceptance, led by Deng Shizhu, director of the Municipal Sports Bureau, and Guo Jiacheng, commander-in-chief of the Times Square Command, came to the stadium construction site. Originally, as the deputy mayor and the commander-in-chief of the Times Square Command, Guo Jiacheng naturally did not need to come in person for such projects. However, he had some contact with Zhang Qinggong on this project, and he was very worried that this acceptance would not pass. In that case, the losses of the demolition would not be a small amount. So this time, when I went to the stadium project for acceptance, I squeezed out time and accompanied the acceptance personnel in person.

Sun Changjiu took his subordinates to the construction site of Fulian City Stadium early on. Seeing Director Zhou accompanying a group of people, he hurried and enthusiastically greeted everyone. Zhou Mingqiang briefly introduced everyone. When Sun Changjiu saw Deputy Mayor Guo, his heart beat faster. For people at his level, this deputy mayor was undoubtedly a big man who could only look up. He held Guo Jiacheng's calm right hand and his slightly bent body shivered slightly.

Subsequently, the employees in charge of the acceptance inspection were very serious, accompanied by Sun Changjiu, and accepted the built-in projects of the gymnasium. In the past two months, Sun Changjiu and others mainly completed the foundation project of the gymnasium. The foundation earthwork of the entire gymnasium has been completed. Under the supervision of the owner, the wiring work of all foundation grooves was completed, and the steel bars were bundled and molded on the foundation were carried out, but the casting had not been carried out, so the acceptance inspection was relatively simple, mainly to check whether the amount of earth and stone and the foundation grooves meet the design standards, and whether the number and specifications of the steel bars meet the design standards.

These projects can be accepted very easily, so the work went very smoothly. Sun Changjiu, who had originally raised his heart, was not until the acceptance staff signed the acceptance notice and the owner signed it again, and his heart finally let go.

Although the construction of the gymnasium was eventually stopped and there was no work he had taken from others, the owner made a little profit after paying the project payment for these projects this time, which made him feel relieved.

This time, being able to escape the danger of carrying huge debts made Sun Changjiu realize that if no one helped him, he would be dead this time. One of his friends who was engaged in construction encountered this situation. As a result, the project was stopped. The owner finally demolished all the projects he had done in the early stage and then re-tendered, resulting in the friend losing all his money. He went from an enviable contractor with hundreds of thousands of yuan to a pauper with debt of 500,000 yuan. He worked hard for decades and returned to before liberation.
