Chapter 383 [Pressure Test Water Supply] (Part 1)

A sentence from Chen Jianian, Brother Zhang, instantly narrowed the distance between him and Zhang Yang, and Zhang Yang said: "Mayor Chen, you are older than me and have richer management experience than me. You are my superior leader. I hope you will take care of me in the future!"

Chen Jianian took the initiative to pick up the cup of tea: "Brother, we must not only be good colleagues, but also become friends who can talk about everything, and work together to improve our Fengze construction!" Zhang Yang drank a glass of beer.

Deputy Mayor Jin Lei came back, and the police chief Zhao Guodong was also with him. Zhao Guodong was not idle about what happened today. After he came in, he greeted Chen Jianian and Zhang Yang.

Jin Lei looked tired. He went out to inspect the drinking water situation in the residential area. Zhang Yang borrowed so many fire trucks from Jiangcheng. Jin Lei was embarrassed to stay here and took the initiative to go down to inspect the water supply situation. He went out in the afternoon and did not come back until now. He was really tired.

Chen Jianian said: "Lao Jin, sit down and have something!"

Jin Lei waved his hand and said, "I'll go take a shower first, you guys talk first!" After that, he plunged into the bathroom.

Zhang Yang warmly invited Zhao Guodong to sit down.

Chen Jianian didn't have much smile on his face, and he said to Zhao Guodong: "Have the cause of the accident been investigated clearly?"

Zhao Guodong nodded: "The driver found the accident. He drove a heavy truck into the restricted area in violation of regulations, crushing the road surface. The main water delivery pipe under the road was crushed and broke. I think this matter has a lot to do with the quality of the project." Zhao Guodong's words are full of shirk responsibility. If all this matter is attributed to traffic responsibility, then as the director of the public security bureau, he must bear the main responsibility. In a word, the quality of the project involves water pipe construction, road construction, and urban planning. There are many more responsible persons, and naturally there are fewer responsibilities he needs to bear.

Both Chen Jianian and Zhang Yang realized the purpose of Zhao Guodong's words. Zhang Yang did not say anything. Chen Jianian said: "What is the reason? Let's talk about it later. The most urgent thing is to find the water leakage point, repair the main water supply main pipe as soon as possible, and restore the normal water supply to the people in the East District." He paused and said: "Secretary Shen has given us a death order. If the order cannot be restored by noon tomorrow, we will be held accountable directly."

Zhao Guodong said: "I have allocated police officers as much as possible to assist the fire trucks in distributing drinking water."

Chen Jianian was about to speak, but Secretary Fu Changzheng ran in from outside excitedly and said happily: "Mayor Chen, Mayor Zhang, the leak point has been found!"

Several people stood up at the same time. Finding the leak point means finding the key to the accident. Chen Jianian said excitedly: "Okay, let's go to the scene to see it!"

Before he could reach the scene, he heard the cheers of workers. The person in charge of the pipeline emergency repair saw several city leaders coming and hurriedly greeted him, saying with a smile: "Mayor Chen, Mayor Zhang, we have found a leak point and are currently pumping water. It is expected that the water will be drained in half an hour and then the main pipe repair work will be carried out."

Chen Jianian smiled and nodded, "Okay! OK! Repair as soon as possible. After completing the task, I will remember each of you."

Zhang Yang didn't know much about the project, so he said to the person in charge of emergency repair: "How come the good water pipe suddenly exploded?"

The person in charge of emergency repair said: "According to the current situation we have, there are several reasons. First, the pipe has been aging for a long time, and the bursting main pipe is a gray cast iron pipe that has been laid for 20 years. Second, with the development of Fengze and the rapid increase in population, the demand for water supply continues to increase. The main pipe must be supercharged and overloaded, which aggravates its losses. Third, the traffic conditions of this Fuguo Road are very unsatisfactory. It was only classified as a section of truck bans since last year, but there are still trucks passing through here. The main pipe has been crushed by passing vehicles for a long time, and..." He hesitated and said: "There is no specific planning drawings for the pipeline, which brings great difficulties to our maintenance."

Zhao Guodong heard that he couldn't listen anymore, so he sternly said: "According to what you said, your water plant itself has no responsibility? Since you know that the pipeline is aging, why not replace it in time? Why not carry out timely maintenance? If something happens, shirk responsibility to other departments. What kind of work attitude is your?"

The person in charge of emergency repair said: "I'm just telling the truth..."

Zhao Guodong said: "What fact? It is clearly a shirk of responsibility!"

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "Okay, okay, what's the point of entanglement these small things? It's better to repair the water pipes as soon as possible so that the people's water supply will return to normal as soon as possible."

Chen Jianian nodded in agreement and said, "As you expect, how long will it take to repair the leak?"

"It will take about four hours to start the work after draining the water!"

Chen Jianian looked at the time. It was nine:30 in the evening, which means it was the early morning at the earliest. He asked Fu Changzheng to find a microphone and encouraged him on the spot: "Hello everyone, I am Chen Jianian. Today, the main water delivery trunk pipe of the East District Water Plant exploded, which caused 150,000 residents in the East District to face the dilemma of no water available. Among us, there must be many people living in the East District, and many parents and relatives, brothers and sisters living in the East District. We cannot repair the main trunk pipe for a moment, and they will have no water use for a moment. Our work at this moment is not only for Fengze, but also for ourselves, for our family, for their early use, we must work overtime to complete this task. Do you have confidence?"

"Yes!" the workers present said in unison.

Chen Jianian said: "With Mayor Zhang and Mayor Jin, we will stick to the front line of emergency repairs for the main trunk. If the main trunk is not repaired properly, we will never leave. You work overtime and we will accompany you to stay awake. We will work together through thick and thin, work together, and complete the tasks assigned to me as soon as possible, okay?"

"good!"

Chen Jianian's encouragement still played a considerable role, and the enthusiasm of the workers has significantly improved.

The workers were fighting at night, and Chen Jianian, Zhang Yang and Jin Lei were not idle either, and were wandering around. Media reporters were all there, and asked others to take a few photos appropriately. These were all political achievements!

Zhao Guodong stayed at the scene for a while and then left. There was no place for him to speak here.

At about 11 o'clock, the municipal party secretary Shen Qinghua called to inquire about the on-site emergency repair situation. Chen Jianian told Shen Qinghua with relief that the water leakage point had been found and the accumulated water was basically emptied, and repairing the damaged pipeline was now underway. Shen Qinghua was relieved when he heard this news. Things went smoothly. Now he found the water leakage point and repaired overnight. This means that water supply can be restored before tomorrow morning, which has little impact on the lives of the people.

Not long after Chen Qinghua's phone call was finished, Mayor Sun Dongqiang also called to ask about the situation. Executive Vice Mayor Chen Jianian obviously did not cooperate so much. His answer was very simple, but he said that the emergency repair was underway and the situation was not optimistic. He hung up the phone in just a few words.

Among the three deputy mayors, Jin Lei was the one with the greatest pressure. This water pipe burst involved multiple departments, but each department had something to do with him. Even if he wanted to shirk responsibility, he could not give up. Jin Lei was still very tired today. Not only did he direct emergency repairs on the spot, but he also went to multiple residential sites in the East District to inspect the citizens' drinking water supply and soothe the people. After finding the leak point, he felt a little relieved. He was so tired that he was almost collapsed on the ground.

Chen Jianian saw that Jin Lei was in an overdrawn state both mentally and physically, and said sympathetically: "Lao Jin, go back and have a rest. Here I am staring at Zhang Yang!"

Jin Lei said: "Not tired!" This is obviously a matter of perseverance.

Zhang Yang said: "You all go back. The maintenance work will take place for a while anyway. I'll keep an eye on it now. After almost the end, I'll go upstairs to call you!"

Chen Jianian thought about it and found that it was not necessary for them to stay here. Zhang Yang was the youngest of the three. Zhang Yang took the initiative to take the initiative to take charge of the on-site command. He nodded and said, "Okay, Jin Lei and I will go to the command center to rest first. If you are tired, we will replace you."

Zhang Yang smiled and said, "It's okay, don't worry!"

After the water leakage point is found, the next step is to repair work. According to the on-site analysis, the maintenance personnel decided to replace the burst main pipe in the entire section. The workers excavated along the pipeline and replaced the entire water pipe. It was already three in the morning to complete the replacement and welding task.

Jin Lei fell asleep when he returned to the command center. Chen Jianian had not been sleeping soundly. At around three o'clock, he put on his clothes and went down to see the situation. He was about to finish the repair. Zhang Yang wore a safety helmet and talked to the person in charge of emergency repairs. He was very energetic and did not sleep all night, but he was not tired at all.

Chen Jianian walked over with a smile. Zhang Yang saw Chen Jianian stop and talked, and said with a smile: "Mayor Chen is awake?"

Chen Jianian said: "I can't sleep, the water pipe has not been repaired, and I always feel uneasy."

Zhang Yang said: "The bursting main pipe has been replaced. If everything goes well, you can quickly test the pressure and send water!"

Chen Jianian nodded with relief.

The on-site work is still working overtime. Although the maintenance workers are very tired, they feel very warm when they see the two deputy mayors accompanying them without sleep.

Half an hour later, the explosion main pipe was replaced. Zhang Yang asked Fu Changzheng to go upstairs and shouted Jin Lei. It was about to reach the pressure test and water delivery stage. At this critical moment, Jin Lei should be present.

After the maintenance personnel carried out the final maintenance work, they were sure that there was nothing missing, so they notified the East District Water Plant to test the pressure to deliver water. Everyone gathered around the newly replaced pipe, and they were waiting, waiting.

The person in charge of emergency repair looked at the watch and said, "In one minute, the water flow will pass through this pipe!"

Everyone stopped talking, holding their breath and looking at the main pipe that had just been replaced. In fact, they didn't have to worry. The main pipe had just been replaced and must have surpassed other pipes in terms of under pressure.

Time passed in seconds. When the person in charge of the emergency repair was convinced that the water flow had passed smoothly, he smiled knowingly and ran to the three deputy mayors, saying proudly: "Report to the three mayors, troubleshoot the explosion of the main pipe of Fuguo Road water delivery, and the repair was successful!"

Cheers and applause came from the scene.

Chen Jianian reached out to celebrate with Zhang Yang and Jin Lei. Just as they were celebrating the achievements, they suddenly heard a muffled sound from Peng. A water dragon rushed out of the road about fifty meters away from them. Everyone was staying there. No one expected that the pipe here had just been repaired and another water pipe burst occurred in another place. Chen Jianian's face changed, and he shouted: "Stop the water immediately!"

The smile on Jin Lei's face frozen like frost. He hugged his head in annoyance and rubbed his hair desperately. He really couldn't believe what was happening in front of him. Misfortune never came alone, but indeed misfortune never came alone.

From the peak of happiness to the trough of disappointment, this huge psychological contrast is easy to make people feel disappointed. Even those with such excellent psychological qualities as Zhang Yang cannot hide the disappointed expression on their faces. He punched hard into the air, and it seemed that it had succeeded, but the explosion of the main trunk manager made them in trouble again.

Fortunately, this time I just tried the pressure to deliver water, and the water pressure was much smaller than when I was normally delivered, otherwise the harm would definitely be greater.

Chen Jianian picked up the microphone and said, "Comrades, this is a test for us. I believe that man will conquer nature. As long as we join hands and work together, there will be no difficulties in this world that cannot be overcome." Although Chen Jianian's words were very encouraging, these emergency repair workers had been operating overload in order to repair the main pipe. From the burst of the water pipe to the present, they worked for nearly fifteen hours. Everyone was extremely tired. Just when they thought they had succeeded, the burst of the water pipe knocked them down from the clouds, and everyone began to deflate.

After the person in charge of emergency repair notified the water plant to stop water, Chen Jianian came to them and asked anxiously: "How is it? When will this pipe be repaired?"
