Chapter 267 The Depressed Glass Factory
Qiu Mei bought a pack of cigarettes before she came to the glass factory, and was planning to make a good relationship with the concierge, and wait until she got to the place to have a look.

Miscalculated.

They don't even have a concierge.

Compared with large factories like steel mills and machinery factories, the environment in the factory area is so depressed, almost dilapidated.

A mess of cut glass was piled up in the field, a lot of cardboard boxes were thrown on the ground, and a few middle-aged men wearing gloves and work clothes were squatting listlessly at the door and smoking.

Qiu Mei walked over and handed a cigarette to each other, and asked with a smile, "Is Director Huo there?"

One of them watched the older man light his cigarette, and said meaningfully: "Yes, but I'm afraid you will have to make a futile trip."

Qiu Mei was surprised, "What do you mean by that?"

"We may not be able to pay this month's salary, can we settle the money for you?"

Qiu Mei was even more surprised. She never fought unprepared battles. When she came here just now, she asked people around her that the glass factory had a good profit before.

How come from this person's tone, it sounds like it is going to go out of business at any time.

Besides, will the state-run factories close down?
"You misunderstood, I'm here to discuss cooperation with Director Huo."

After hearing Qiu Mei's intention, the man blew a smoke ring, "Cooperation? Glass or glass wool?"

It was the first time Qiu Mei heard the word glass wool, wondering: "Can glass also be turned into cotton?"

Before Qiu Mei finished speaking, the people around couldn't help laughing, and some laughed so hard that tears came out.

What's so funny about that?She was an outsider.

While Qiu Mei was puzzled, one of the men wiped the corner of his eyes, and pointed at the things piled up in the center of the field with a red cigarette butt.

"If it weren't for the fiber insulation cotton, would our factory have fallen to this point? Huo Cheng relied on his own study for several years, and made glass wool on a whim. We all thought it was ridiculous. Would outsiders buy it? "

Qiu Mei fell into deep thought. From An Xiangwen's mouth, the director of this glass factory seems to be quite courageous, but the workers are full of complaints.

"Can you tell me more about it?"

Because of the efficiency problem in the factory, a few workers had nothing to do anyway, so they simply explained to Qiu Mei in detail the unsalable stuff.

On the other side, in the factory manager's office, Huo Cheng was making phone calls, but all he received were rejection messages.

Glass fiber insulation cotton is a new product she learned after visiting the largest glass factory in Kyoto. It is made of glass balls or waste glass through high-temperature melting, wire drawing, winding, weaving and other processes.

The diameter of monofilament is equivalent to one-twentieth to one-fifth of a human hair. It is a very good material for heat insulation and heat preservation. It is even an excellent material for fire prevention because it cannot be burned.

She tried to get the technical backbone of the factory to learn this technology, and then increased investment in cost research after returning.

I thought that such a good material would definitely be able to exert huge benefits.

However, after so long, there are only a few orders, and they are still orders for Huo Cheng's sake.

Because of the huge investment in the early stage and the lack of any benefits, the workers in the factory complained for a while, and the leaders above were also quite critical. They couldn't even apply for the payment, and they were going to let them figure out their own solutions.

Huo Cheng even heard gossip from people in the factory by chance, saying that she was not good at being the factory director as a woman, why she was so restless, she might as well go home and take care of the children.

Huo Cheng was so angry that his chest ached.

The family was under pressure to send Huo Cheng to study since she was a child. She worked hard all the way and worked many times harder than men. She finally got to this position, but she still had to be discriminated against because of her gender.

Is this fair?

At this moment, there was a knock on the office door, and Huo Cheng took a few deep breaths back and forth before speaking in as calm a tone as possible.

"come in."
