"President Jason, thank you very much for taking time out of your busy work to come to the city hall. I will take up some of your time next. Is that okay?" Julio's character and style are still very southern, so much so that Jason didn't know if this was Julio's way of expressing his dissatisfaction with him, or if he was really just that polite.
As a Jason who would take root in the west and create a great business empire of his own in the future, the mayor of Van Leer was someone he could not afford to offend at the moment. In fact, he received a call from the city hall at a little past nine in the morning, asking him to go to the mayor's office as soon as possible to discuss the strike. He has been putting off coming here until now, not because he wanted to do it, but because he couldn't do it otherwise.
It was he who initiated the strike. He listened to Mr. Dulin's request and secretly asked his subordinates to contact some more prestigious people in the working class, promoting the birth of the strike trend, and also accepted a sum of one hundred thousand yuan. If he uses the funds as the start-up capital when he registers a new company, then he must do his best for Mr. Dulin. Now who doesn't know that Dulin is an educated and elegant man. Many people speculate that Mr. Dulin may be involved in some serious criminal cases, but there is no evidence that Mr. Dulin was actually involved in these cases.
Discovering the truth is not scary, the scary thing is that he has become a part of the truth, so Jason tries to delay as much time as possible to think about how to deal with this matter.
He did not call Du Lin. This was also his own idea. If he had to ask Du Lin for advice on everything, he would gradually lose his independent authority. In the end, even though he was still a boss, he actually became Du Lin. Lin's men. He doesn't like this. He wants to be a person who can decide his own life, not a person who takes orders from others.
Jason shook Julio's hand hard, with a hint of guilt on his face, "I must apologize to you, Mayor Julio. The workers are very excited now, and I have been contacting some of their organizations. Or, let them maintain a restrained attitude as much as possible and not let the incident escalate.”
Julio guided Jason to the edge of the sofa and sat down, while affirmatively agreeing, "What you did is very good. Controlling the situation without expanding will help us solve the problem. Strike is not the most appropriate solution to the problem. Only a more rational approach is the real solution to the problem.”
Jason just smiled casually at Julio's "praising" and didn't take it to heart. Now Julio has a lot of troubles. Anyone who has the slightest chance to solve these troubles for him will not make him feel any trouble by saying nice words. Anyway, it doesn't cost money to say nice things. But it would be really stupid to take what he said seriously, "As the president of the Western Workers Union, this is what I should do and what I must do."
"Mr. Maggs once said that the interests of the working class represent the interests of the mainstream groups in society. The responsibility and task of the workers' union is to unite the working class, guide the working class, provide necessary help to all working classes, and avoid them being influenced by capitalists. And the persecution of careerists to ensure the correctness of their attitudes and positions." This sentence was what Maggs said when the workers' union was reorganized after being stabbed several times by Dulin a few years ago when it was time to establish a new management of the working class. The instructions given by Jason are very appropriate now.
Julio was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He looked at Jason again and had a very strange thought in his mind. This man must have made very detailed preparations before coming to see him. His speculation is not without purpose. Leader Magus has expressed his views and opinions on many things, but this kind of thing is more symbolic. It's like someone being praised for doing a good deed. The praise itself doesn't have much practical significance. Except for those politicians, no one will keep the content of the praise in mind and be ready to take it out at all times. Overwhelm people.
So he felt that Jason had done his homework, which also triggered more reverie. This sudden general strike covered a large city and involved a large number of people. Would the workers' union play a role in it
The difference between this strike and previous strikes in other places is that previous strikes in other places were mostly organized by workers' unions. This time the workers' unions did not come forward, and Julio learned about the workers' unions in the west from the side. There was only one framework left, and there were not even enough people to maintain normal work, so the workers' union was not taken into consideration. But Jason's performance forced him to reconsider what role the workers' union and Jason played in this.
Jason definitely didn’t know that he had made adequate preparations but it exposed his biggest flaw. Julio continued calmly, “I am very sure that what the workers’ union is doing is correct. For this reason, I hope you can cooperate with the Vanlier City Hall to eliminate this strike as much as possible before it breaks out. For this reason, we can negotiate and solve any problems. The damage caused by the strike is multi-faceted, not only. It hurts the working class itself and also hurts many innocent citizens. It is definitely a heavy blow to the western economy that has just started to improve. We should avoid these situations. "
Jason nodded, but his eyebrows tightened, "Mayor Julio, I know everything you said, but you may also understand the current situation of the workers' union in the west. According to the workers The rules and regulations of the union require that we should have our own offices or branches in every city and place where we have labor relations in the west, so as to more conveniently serve all the working class. But you see, there is only one in Van Lier in the entire west. An institution that only has a framework left, and we don’t even have an office anywhere else.”
"I am very eager to do something for you, for the working class, and for the West, but I really can't do it. The only thing I can do now is to meet with the workers' representatives who have arrived in Van Lier and persuade them to give up the strike. But so far, little success has been achieved." Jason sighed heavily, "When Mayor Memnon proposed the three-guarantee policy, I thought it would be a huge trouble if there was no more authoritative organization. To ensure the implementation and execution of the three guarantees policy, this is a disaster!”
Julio's eyes suddenly lit up. Jason's words gave him an unexpected hint. Perhaps this would be the most effective way to solve this disaster!
After chatting with Jason for a while, Julio was very "disappointed" and sent Jason away. The moment he closed the door, a smile appeared on his face. He walked directly to the table, picked up the phone, and dialed a number.
"Help me pick up President Bellito..."
