N-A-A Chapter 337 Punishment
Chapter 337 Punishment
All the lessons learned before piled up like heavy stones in the hearts of Yi Zhonghai and others.
However, these lessons did not seem to be deeply engraved in their memories. Instead, they seemed to have ignited a certain rebellious flame in their hearts, making them more unscrupulous, frequently provoking and provoking others.
Their behavior is undoubtedly challenging the bottom line of the rules and is a disregard for their own future destiny.
Faced with such a situation, Li Youquan's heart was filled with complicated emotions.
On the one hand, he felt deeply helpless because no matter how hard he tried, he seemed unable to change these people's stubbornness and prejudice.
On the other hand, a resolute force surged in his heart.
He understood that since the other party cared so much about face, he had the responsibility and ability to lift the veil of hypocrisy, let the other party see the real consequences, and ensure that justice was served.
So Li Youquan took decisive action.
So when he placed the letter of complaint steadily on the desk in the factory director's office, every movement seemed so firm and powerful.
However, he did not leave immediately, but chose a location that was both hidden and able to clearly observe the movements in the workshop, and waited quietly for the next development.
He knew very well how the disclosure of this letter would shake the peace of the workshop and how it would change Yi Zhonghai's fate.
He anticipated the factory director's anger and shock after learning the truth, and he also anticipated the various reactions that might arise.
But all this could not shake his inner firmness and determination.
While waiting, Li Youquan was like a calm bystander. He quietly observed all the movements in the workshop and collected every tiny piece of information without making any sound.
He believed that the truth would eventually come to light, and Yi Zhonghai would pay the price for everything he had done.
"Yi Zhonghai, you are getting more and more audacious. You actually dared to defend the unidentified Xu Damao in public. Do you really have no idea who took Xu Damao away? Have your reason and judgment completely disappeared at this moment?"
Whenever the factory director thought of the shocking letter of complaint, the anger in his heart would erupt like a volcano. He clenched his teeth, his fingers almost poking Yi Zhonghai's nose, and roared angrily.
In the past, I didn't think Yi Zhonghai was a stupid person and would not do such a stupid thing.
But the report letter was well-founded and obviously not slandering him.
"That's an enemy spy, a time bomb lurking among us! Before you defended Xu Damao, didn't you have the slightest concern that your words and actions would be misunderstood and thus linked to those dangerous enemy spies?"
The factory director's voice became louder and louder, and his emotions became more and more agitated. He could hardly control himself and wanted to step forward and kick Yi Zhonghai twice as a punishment.
Because once Yi Zhonghai really has any connection with the enemy spies, then this will no longer be his personal problem.
It will spread rapidly throughout the steel mill like a cancer, plunging the entire enterprise into an unprecedented crisis.
The people around were all stunned in shock after hearing the factory director's righteous rebuke. They stared at the scene with wide eyes in disbelief.
Many people also took a step back calmly and quietly moved away from Yi Zhonghai, for fear of having any involvement with him.
Yi Zhonghai's face turned blue as he was scolded. He lowered his head, clenched his hands into fists, and his body trembled slightly.
He never thought that his momentary impulse would lead to such serious consequences.
The factory director was like a strict father scolding his naughty son, and he kept listing all the faults of Yi Zhonghai.
Every word he said was like a sharp knife, deeply hurting Yi Zhonghai's heart.
At this moment, Yi Zhonghai's heart was filled with regret and anger.
He could almost conclude that all this was a means of revenge secretly manipulated by Li Youquan.
He gnashed his teeth in hatred and wished he could tear Li Youquan into pieces immediately.
But facing the factory director's anger, he had to temporarily suppress the hatred in his heart.
"Director, I really know I was wrong. I will never do such a stupid thing again."
Yi Zhonghai finally begged for mercy. His voice was low and trembling, full of pleading and despair.
He now only hopes to get the factory director's forgiveness and let all this pass as soon as possible.
Thinking back to the smugness he felt when he first mentioned this matter, Yi Zhonghai only felt a sense of irony and shame.
He thought he could take this opportunity to discredit Li Youquan, but he didn't expect that it would bring him so much trouble.
However, the factory director did not soften his heart because of Yi Zhonghai's plea for mercy.
"Do you know you're wrong? I don't think you'll cry until you see the coffin! What's wrong with your head? How dare you do such a thing!"
The factory manager roared angrily, his eyes filled with disappointment and anger.
If there had not been that letter of complaint, perhaps the factory director would have let Yi Zhonghai off the hook for his many years of hard work and contributions.
But now, with this letter of complaint as irrefutable evidence, the factory director must handle this matter strictly in accordance with the rules and regulations.
Otherwise, he himself would be implicated.
In order to prevent himself from being dragged into this muddy water, he had no choice but to sacrifice Yi Zhonghai.
Yi Zhonghai clenched his fists, his knuckles turned slightly white from the force, and the despair in his eyes was like a bottomless pool of water that almost swallowed him whole.
His heart was beating like a drum, and the words just now echoed repeatedly in his mind, but he was unable to refute them and could only let the emotions churn in his chest.
"Since you have deeply realized your mistakes and shown remorse, our factory has decided not to punish you too harshly."
"But to serve as a warning to others, from now on, your job level will be downgraded by two levels. At the same time, the workpiece tasks previously assigned to you must still be completed on time, and in the next year, you will lose the opportunity to participate in any upgrade assessments."
The factory director's voice was calm and powerful, and every word was like a heavy hammer, hitting Yi Zhonghai's heart.
"In addition, your behavior has constituted a serious violation of discipline and will be recorded as a major offense."
The factory director's words revealed unquestionable authority. His eyes stayed on Yi Zhonghai for a moment, as if he wanted to see through his inner struggle and unwillingness.
After hearing these words, Yi Zhonghai was stunned. He simply couldn't believe his ears.
He thought that since the factory director said that the punishment would not be severe, the punishment should not be too harsh.
However, reality gave him a loud slap in the face.
