A Valiant Life Chapter 1175 - An apology ceremony

Lin Fan smiled after finding out the state of the component. “Director Li, you must be kidding me. The corner’s in such a bad shape. Are you sure we can use it?”

Director Li replied, “Master Lin, you don’t understand. This is a normal occurrence. There is no problem with it.”

w.a.n.g Ming Yang was stunned. He felt that he had let his brother down.

Lin Fan did not say anything else. He just continued to inspect the other parts of the artificial limbs one by one.

Suddenly, he stopped and stared at a particular artificial limb in shock. Then, he took some tools and inspected it further.

*click*

Some components dropped out. It seemed like they were not properly screwed together. After further inspection, he realised that the parts were too small.

“Director Li, are you telling me this is okay?” Lin Fan asked as he picked the parts up and stuffed them back into the artificial limb. Then, he waved it around in the air and the parts fell out again.

w.a.n.g Ming Yang was furious after seeing that. “Director Li, how did you manage to approve these artificial limbs after inspection?”

Director Li was stunned. “Director w.a.n.g, something must have gone wrong. These components have nothing wrong. Furthermore, they’re not essential parts. It must have been a mistake.”

“Are you sure there’s nothing wrong? Who built these? Shouldn’t they have realised this?” w.a.n.g Ming Yang shouted.

Director Li continued, “Director w.a.n.g, why do you think Secretary Chen asked me over? They value our professional skills. I can a.s.sure you that there will not be any problem. I have done this for so many years and I’ve seen this happen countless times. It’s perfectly normal.”

w.a.n.g Ming Yang replied, “You don’t have to mention Secretary Chen. If he were to find out about this, he’d reprimand you for sure.”

Director Li said, “Director w.a.n.g, Secretary Chen doesn’t understand this and he won’t say anything about it. Regardless of who you ask, they would also say that this is perfectly fine.”

Lin Fan picked up his phone and dialed a number.

“Master Lin, what are you doing?” Director Li was stunned and asked anxiously. ( .c om )

In the meeting room, Secretary Chen was discussing about the Shanghai Industrial Zone’s situation when his phone suddenly rang. Usually, he would not entertain any phone calls during work, but when he saw the caller ID, he quickly picked up.

The other people in the meeting room were stunned. They wondered who was the caller that made Secretary Chen pick up his phone.

After all, they knew that Secretary Chen would not usually do such a thing during work. Hence, they knew that it must have been about something important.

Upon picking up, Lin Fan started to talk.

“Secretary Chen, the representative that you sent is so irresponsible.”

Secretary Chen was stunned. “What is it? Did something go wrong?”

They held the matter regarding the perfect artificial limbs in high regard. They wanted everything to proceed smoothly. Now that Master Lin called him, something must have gone wrong.

Lin Fan continued, “Secretary Chen, the production of the perfect artificial limbs was entirely entrusted to your people. This representative was sent by you. However, the components are not compatible. I just checked ten of them and three had problems with the components. Of course, I’m not expecting everything to be perfect, but this incidence rate is too high.

“Secretary Chen, if you are not sincere about partnering us, you don’t have to force yourself to do so. We can do it on our own.”

Secretary Chen was stunned. “Master Lin, wait for me. I’ll be there in a minute.”

He felt that things must have gone really wrong. He had to resolve this promptly, as they knew the importance of this matter. After hearing what Master Lin said, he felt the need to go down to take a look so that it would be prevented in the future.

“Secretary, we’re not done here,” the surrounding members of the board whispered.

Secretary Chen waved his hand, “Let’s end the meeting for now and head straight to the factory.”

“Okay.”

In the factory.

Director Li furrowed his brows, “Master Lin, there’s really nothing wrong. Isn’t it a little overboard for you to call Secretary Chen?”

Lin Fan waved his hand, “I wouldn’t know that. Since Secretary Chen doesn’t know anything about this industry, let’s get him to judge this then.”

He did not expect this to happen on the first day even before anything proper took flight.

After some time, Secretary Chen and a few others arrived.

“Master Lin, what is it?” Secretary Chen asked.

“Secretary Chen,” Director Li greeted upon seeing him.

( .c om ) Lin Fan replied, “Secretary Chen, come and have a look at this. He said this is perfectly fine. What do you think?”

Secretary Chen walked forward and inspected the components. He was a little far-sighted, but he could still somewhat see them.

“These components…” Secretary Chen sighed and placed them down. Then, he looked at Director Li, “I need an explanation.”

Director Li was stunned. “Secretary Chen, this is perfectly normal. There’s no problem.”

Secretary Chen waved his hand. “Don’t tell me that. I can tell if something is good or bad. I’m not that stupid.”

*slam*

Suddenly, Secretary Chen slammed the table loudly.

“Director Li, how did you pa.s.s these components through inspection?” Secretary Chen asked.

“That, I…” Director Li did not know how to answer. Cold sweat droplets started forming on his forehead.

He really did not know what to say because something must have gone wrong somewhere.

Secretary Chen added, “Master Lin, don’t worry. I will do a thorough investigation about this. This is my problem. I will take full responsibility for it.”

w.a.n.g Ming Yang replied, “Secretary Chen, we can’t blame you for this. We can only say that you trusted the wrong person. If these components were to be used on these artificial limbs, it is difficult to foresee what would happen in the future. Furthermore, you should question the manufacturers thoroughly. Initially, we were worried that the workers might not have anywhere to settle down at. Therefore, we agreed to proceed with this business. Now that this has happened, who will be responsible for it if something were to go wrong?”

Director Li became anxious. “Secretary Chen, I really don’t know anything about this. It really is nothing significant. It would be too early to make any announcements during the conference now. If…”

Secretary Chen interrupted, “The conference? Just admit your mistakes. I will investigate this and hold the right person responsible for this.”

Lin Fan added, “Yeah, the news conference should be changed to an apology ceremony. Please be stringent in the selection of the components. The manufacturer should be changed too. If you do not cherish this opportunity, you can’t blame anyone else. You wanted to save costs on the quality of the components. Completely unacceptable.”

After hearing that, Director Li was stunned.

He did not expect to be exposed.

How did they even find out about this just by looking at the small components?
