Rebirth of the Entrepreneurship Era

At present, the public’s awareness of fire protection is still relatively weak, and the fire protection requirements of self-employed businesses have not yet been fully clarified in many places. Many self-employed businesses have a business area of ​​more than 100 square meters without even a fire extinguisher. They can be equipped with one or two dry powder fire extinguishers. The consciousness is very strong.

Therefore, in comparison, Xu Yiyang equipped an Internet cafe with more than forty fire extinguishers, which is of such a high standard that it is unimaginable.

At this moment, all kinds of red fire extinguisher cans were still discarded all over the floor. Firefighters had never seen such a scene.

This is also the first time they have seen that ordinary people use such powerful "fire suppression" to put out fires.

They were even more shocked when they entered the fire scene.

Because the burning room on the second floor was basically completely covered by thick fire extinguishing dry powder at this time, it is estimated that at least more than 200 kilograms of fire extinguishing dry powder were sprayed inside.

At this time, several unconscious people were still breathing when they were carried out, just as the 120 ambulance arrived, the medical staff parked the car outside, rushed in with a stretcher and first aid equipment, and started first aid.

Fortunately, the comatose people were checked by doctors, and none of them were life-threatening. Although the others also inhaled a lot of smoke, their condition was relatively stable.

The most seriously injured in the fire were a few residents on the third floor who forced their way through the fire. When the stairs were engulfed in flames, they chose to force their way out because they could not break the window and suffered serious burns. None are life-threatening.

After confirming that all 26 people on the third and fourth floors were evacuated and that no one died, the fire brigade instructor Zhao Junmin heaved a sigh of relief.

Only then did he realize that his back was drenched in cold sweat.

He has served in Zhonghai Firefighting for five years, and he has seen strong winds and waves, but he is still frightened by the extinguished fire in front of him.

He couldn't imagine that there was a four-story black hotel in such an alley.

This kind of multi-storey building built by residents is simply the most terrifying existence in the eyes of firefighters.

The self-built houses are basically brick buildings, with brick walls on all sides and prefabricated panels closely arranged on the top of the head. Not to mention the fire insulation, even the heat insulation is enough. If it is burned from the bottom, it is easy to burn to the top.

What is even more frightening is that the hotel not only does not have any fire-fighting equipment, but even installed anti-theft nets on all windows without permission.

If firefighters were asked to name the most disgusting things in daily firefighting, most of them would probably vote for anti-theft nets.

The meaning of this thing's existence was originally to do everything possible to prevent outsiders from entering through the window.

But once a fire breaks out, it will also block the people inside the room tightly.

This kind of anti-theft net made of steel bars is firmly fixed in the wall with large expansion wires at the four corners. The vertical load of a single metal expansion wire is more than 50 kilograms, and the four expansion wires are fixed together. The anti-theft net, even three or four adult men could not open it with bare hands.

Once a fire breaks out in a building or room, windows are the only means of survival and rescue, but once there are anti-theft windows, it is tantamount to extinguishing the last hope of survival.

Zhao Junmin has seen such a fire before. The people in the house were finally forced to the windows by the fire and thick smoke. They struggled to call for help through the thick security net, but many people could not escape the engulfing fire.

At this moment, he wished he could call the hotel owner out and slap him several times. Isn't it a disregard for human life if you open such a hotel?

The most frightening thing was that this humble hotel was full tonight. There were only six rooms on the third and fourth floors, but nearly thirty people lived there.

He couldn't imagine how much damage would be caused if such a fire really caught fire. Based on his experience, the survival rate of the twenty-odd people on the third and fourth floors might not exceed 10%...

Fortunately, someone was the first to contain the fire, otherwise, this black hotel tonight would definitely be on the front page of the national news tomorrow!

Although he didn't see how big the fire was in the room where the fire started,

But looking at the fire extinguisher cans all over the floor, combined with the fire inside the second floor just now, he can guess how fierce the fire was before.

It's hard to imagine where this group of young people onlookers got so many fire extinguishers!

At this time, Lu Di was interviewing Xu Yiyang, and she wanted to ask Xu Yiyang's name, but Xu Yiyang made it clear that there was no need to keep the name, everyone was learning from the revolutionary predecessors, and did not leave their names for good deeds.

Afterwards, he declined Lu Di's request to continue the interview, greeted Zhao Xin and Chen Meng beside him, and said, "Brother Xin, Xiao Meng, please ask everyone to bring back the unused fire extinguishers, and count the number of people, all of you are here to help." Those who put out the fire will each receive a two hundred yuan membership card, and those who have a membership card will directly charge everyone into the balance."

Zhao Xin nodded and said, "Okay, I'll go to Zhang Luo now."

After finishing speaking, he shouted: "Thank you everyone for bringing the unused and unused fire extinguishers back to New Century, and then register in a moment, and the Internet cafe will give each person a membership card worth 200 yuan!"

When the crowd heard this, they cheered immediately.

Putting out a fire itself is a great sense of accomplishment. Everyone put out a fire and saved many lives. The sense of accomplishment is even more overwhelming. Unexpectedly, the Internet cafe even gave everyone a membership card as a gift.

At this time, Zhao Junmin, the instructor of the fire brigade, had been watching from the sidelines.

He had always wanted to know where these young people came from and who organized them, but when Zhao Xin suddenly yelled, he ran over immediately.

Zhao Xin didn't expect that a firefighter suddenly ran up to him, saluted with a swipe, and said, "Hello, I'm Zhao Junmin, the instructor of the Shanyin Road Squadron of the Hongkou District Detachment of the Zhonghai Fire Department."

"Uh..." Zhao Xin was obviously stunned, and he came back to his senses after a while and said, "Hello, what's the matter?"

Zhao Junmin hurriedly asked: "May I ask you to organize these people and these fire extinguishing equipment?"

Zhao Xin pointed at Xu Yiyang: "This is our boss, and he organized it."

Zhao Junmin looked at Xu Yiyang, only to realize that a reporter had already arrived. He ignored the camera, but asked Xu Yiyang: "I don't know what the name of this little brother is?"

Xu Yiyang said: "Hi Director Zhao, we are here to help, so you don't have to ask for our names."

Zhao Junmin was slightly surprised, and asked again: "Then, did you organize these people? You also prepared these fire-fighting equipment yourself?"

Xu Yiyang nodded, and said: "Yes, we opened an Internet cafe nearby, and these fire-fighting equipment are always in stock in our Internet cafe."

"Internet cafe?" Zhao Junmin asked dumbfounded: "Your Internet cafes are equipped with so many fire extinguishers?"

"Yes." Xu Yiyang smiled and said, "It's just to prevent problems before they happen. We always keep forty-four sets of fire extinguishers, some portable dry powder, some cart dry powder, and some carbon dioxide."

"My God." Zhao Junmin couldn't help sighing: "You have more fire-fighting equipment in an Internet cafe than most residential buildings in the entire building. This fire-fighting awareness is really incredible!"

Xu Yiyang said with a smile: "I have a fear of insufficient firepower. I am afraid that if I buy too little, it will not be enough, so I buy more."

Zhao Junmin nodded and said gratefully: "Thanks to you tonight, if you hadn't used so many fire extinguishers to control the fire in advance, the residents upstairs would be really dangerous, and the smoke could kill people in a few minutes , In such a severe fire tonight, you can still achieve zero deaths, all thanks to you!"

Xu Yiyang said with a smile: "We can't talk about credit, we are just doing a little bit!"

Zhao Junmin said earnestly: "Today's incident, I will definitely report truthfully to the relevant departments of the municipal party committee, and win the 'Medal for Justice and Courage' for you!"

Xu Yiyang hurriedly waved his hands and said, "You don't have to be so polite, we really only want to save people, not rewards."

After finishing speaking, Xu Yiyang didn't wait for Zhao Junmin's answer, and hurriedly said: "I'm sorry Director Zhao, we still have something to do, so I won't disturb your work, let's go first!"

Regardless of Zhao Junmin and Lu Di's persuasion, Xu Yiyang hurriedly led everyone away from the scene.

Back at the Internet cafe, Zhao Xin began to issue cards and recharge each Internet cafe customer who participated in the firefighting. Xu Yiyang also asked the network administrator to arrange a "luxury instant noodle package" for these people.

At this time, the two previous reporters also came over, directly carrying the camera, and started filming in the lobby of the Internet cafe.

Seeing Xu Yiyang coming, Lu Di rushed up to meet him and said, "Hello, Boss Xu. I'm Lu Di, a reporter from China Sea Satellite TV. I wonder if you have time to accept a brief interview with us?"

Xu Yiyang didn't expect the reporter to find this place, so he said to Lu Di: "Let's go to the door, there are too many people here."

"Okay!" Lu Di nodded hastily.

Xu Yiyang wanted to go to the door to accept interviews. Besides the quietness outside, he also wanted to give the New Century Internet Cafe a chance to be on TV. Anyone who opened the door for business would not be too exposed.

Standing at the glass door of the Internet cafe, Lu Di turned sideways to the camera and asked Xu Yiyang: "Mr. Xu, can you describe in detail the whole process of putting out the fire just now?"

Xu Yiyang nodded and said: "A few classmates and I just wanted to prepare for the second college student CS team competition held in our Internet cafe, so we came here to train all night. We rushed over to put out the fire..."

Xu Yiyang deliberately described playing CS as preparing for the CS team competition, in order to take advantage of this opportunity to increase the exposure of the CS competition.

Then, he described the whole incident in detail.

After Lu Di asked some questions about firefighting, he asked Xu Yiyang curiously: "Boss Xu, you just said that you are going to prepare for the college competition. Are you still a college student?"

Xu Yiyang nodded and said, "That's right, I'm a freshman."

As he spoke, he added: "Not only me, but the other shareholders of the Internet cafe are also freshmen."

Lu Di asked in surprise: "Mr. Xu, it's convenient to tell me, which university are you from?"

Xu Yiyang subconsciously wanted to say the name of China Overseas International Studies University, but then he thought about it. Didn't Chen Yanhui from the student union brazenly say that he is not qualified to represent China Overseas?

Come on, don't discredit your alma mater yourself.

So, he smiled slightly and said, "Ham, it's not a good school, so I won't talk about it."
