At the back door of the auditorium, a few figures appeared. They were the three masters. The oldest among them already needed the help of their apprentices to walk, and the youngest, Zhou Jianming, was already in his forties. A dozen people gathered around them, all looking towards Yuan Yuan.

Zhou Jianming said, "Director He, didn't you say before that we were lagging behind? Our technology couldn't keep up?"

Yuan Yuan said: "It is easy to deal with backward technology, but it is hard to buy experienced people. Now the technology of the whole factory is backward and it is indeed unable to keep up with the market. But I can solve this problem. The rich experience of the three masters is unmatched by anyone in our factory. So we still need to continue to trouble the three of you to stay here and serve as our mainstay."

After hearing what she said, some people believed it and some didn't, but the atmosphere became much better in the end.

Zhou Jianming continued, "We were all listening to what you said just now from outside the wall. So what is your third point?"

Yuan Yuan said, "I have already mentioned the third point. The factory needs technological innovation. I will be responsible for this. The technological reform will be completed within three months."

In fact, those who should understand it still know it clearly in their hearts. The most difficult one to do is still the third one.

After the meeting, the factory manager said to Yuan Yuan, "Boss Yuan, please come over for a moment. We have some questions that we want to clarify with you."

Wenlan was getting impatient, so Yuanyuan gently held her hand, calmed her down, and said, "Okay. I know you must have a lot of questions in your mind. It will be much better if you explain everything clearly before the project starts."

Wen Lan said puzzledly: "You were trying to stabilize the army's morale before, which is normal. My father taught me the same thing. But I thought you were just trying to appease the people. I didn't expect that you really wanted to explain everything to them? Yuan Yuan, I have to tell you in advance that it is not necessarily a good thing to let the subordinates know too much about some things."

"Yes. I know." Yuan Yuan did not deny it. She was confident. "But don't worry this time. Didn't I tell you? I will take all the responsibility."

Wenlan stopped trying to stop him. She just said, "Well, I'll be frank. I told you before that if you can't handle this, we'll split the shares immediately. From now on, you'll just get a salary from Tiansong's parent company. Forget about participating in the company's decision-making."

Yuan Yuan nodded: "I know."

Wenlan looked at her watch and said, "I have a meeting in the city... It's tonight. Great! I'm leaving now. If you have any news, call me later and tell me."

After Wenlan left, Yuanyuan entered the factory director's office. The same people were there, but there were three more masters.

Director He didn't beat around the bush. He closed the door and said to Yuan Yuan, "Mr. Yuan, I'm sorry to take up your valuable time. But we still want to hear how you plan to update our textile technology."

Yuan Yuan thought of her risky plan, scratched her cheek, and said, "Can't we keep it a secret for now?"

Director He said: "It's not that it's impossible, it's just that I'm really worried."

Yuan Yuan also understood their concerns. It was a factory with hundreds of people. Although it was not as big as the super factories in the three northeastern provinces, it was already a large-scale factory in the south, especially in Z City. She said, "I know that if everyone doesn't start work, the production lines in the factory will be dismantled and sold off, which is like a makeshift team running away with the money. Then I'll tell you the truth. I know that H University of Technology has just cooperated with the United States. They have the most advanced technology, and I plan to try my luck."

She casually pulled out a piece of waste paper, covered the globe on the factory director's desk with it, and began to draw:

"If we can get their technology, then we will have the most advanced linoleum technology in the country. The market for this linoleum is—"

Everyone followed her eyes: "Where is it?"

Yuan Yuan put her pen down and said, "In the United States! We want to export! Earning dollars is more profitable, isn't it?"

Everyone's eyes widened!

Yuan Yuan put down her pen and said, "Now here comes the question. Everyone, are you willing to bet with me?!"

After hesitating for only a moment, Master Zhou Jianming took the lead and raised his hand, "Let's go for it. If this fails, we'll be laid off anyway!"

Soon after, more people followed him and raised their hands.

Finally, everyone raised their hands!!

Yuan Yuan's eyes were sharp and firm, and she smiled.

……

"I finally got back. You want to go downtown?"

Jiang Zhou changed his posture, crossing his long legs more comfortably on the fabric sofa designed by Yuan Yuan. He unbuttoned the top two buttons of his shirt, revealing his bronze skin.

Yuan Yuan swallowed uncontrollably and covered her delicate collarbone and double-door pectoral muscles with a piece of newspaper. "Yes. Are you going? You have gotten to know the downtown area of ​​Z City well recently, right? Lead the way for me."

Jiang Zhou raised his eyes to look at her, with a strange smile in his eyes: "Okay. Then how do you thank me?"

"I'll treat you to a meal?"

"not enough."

Yuan Yuan narrowed her eyes: "Do I have to pay for the guide? It doesn't matter, I didn't spend much of the money you gave me for safekeeping..."

Jiang Zhou said, "There's a new blockbuster movie in the cinema recently, called The Terminator. Come with me to watch it."

Yuan Yuan was stunned: "Watching a movie? Do you have so much leisure time?"

"Then are you going?"

Yuan Yuan said: "Go! Why not? Wait a minute, I'll go borrow a car!"

Now the person she borrowed the car from changed from Jiang Xiyuan to You Xiaojiu, and the method was the same as before: daily rental and gas at her own expense. The first time is unfamiliar, the second time is familiar, and those who know this will understand, but what puzzled her was that Jiang Zhou seemed to have only been to the telephone store to drink twice, but he was actually more familiar with You Xiaojiu than she was?

Uncle You handed her the car keys and said, "Why don't you spend Saturday with your partner, walk on the street and drink ice cream? Are you going out?"

Yuan Yuan asked: "What object?"

Uncle You smiled ambiguously: "Isn't that soldier your boyfriend? You're living together now, are you going to get married soon?"

Yuan Yuan said seriously: "Hey, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't say anything you want! We don't live together, I live with my teacher, Jiang Zhou is just an accessory."

Sister You was sitting in the shop knitting. Upon hearing this, she rolled her eyes at Uncle You and said, "Don't talk nonsense if you don't know how to speak. I'm a young girl and my reputation is at stake!"

Yuan Yuan took the key and left, but after taking a few steps, she almost bumped into Jiang Zhou.

"A Zhou..." She was a little embarrassed, lowered her head and dodged. She was afraid that Jiang Zhou would hear the conversation just now. Fortunately, Jiang Zhou took her car keys and said, "Let me drive."

Sitting in the passenger seat, she fastened her seat belt as usual.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Zhou is a very good driver.
