The reason why they didn't take Stephanie and Catherine to China was simple, because the two of them couldn't go at all, and neither the Intelligence Agency nor the Homeland Security Agency would let them go — unless they were on a classified mission.

Not only China, but also Iran, Cuba, North Korea, Russia and other red or former red countries are not allowed to go. This is not to say that two girls can't go abroad because they are superpowers, for example, it's no problem to go to Canada - there is no garrison on the US-Canada border, if you have time, you can walk there, drive there, ride there, and no one cares how many times a day you want to go.

In fact, people living on the U.S.-Canada border have a high degree of freedom, except for casual bilateral travel. For example, when the price of oil rises in the United States, everyone drives to Canada to refuel. The Canadian dollar has appreciated, the dollar has depreciated, and Canadians have come to the United States to shop.

Canada's policy since the founding of the country has always been to follow the United States, but it has not learned the full set - if you want to be a police officer in the world, you don't have the capital. In short, the two sisters of the visa-free countries in the United States can go, but the countries registered by the United States will naturally be restricted.

As for Ye Zi and his aunt, they don't have time to go back, Ye Zi is still very busy with schoolwork this year, and he will take the American college entrance examination of the ACT or SAT next year, although American universities have always said that scores are just a reference, but it is obviously easy to get into a good university with a high score - of course, if there is a Harvard trustee as a father, it is not a big problem to hand in the blank roll into Harvard. The Ivy League is originally a private university league, and there is naturally such a thing as a mobile quota.

A few days after the New Year, Angelina happily dragged a box of fur furs and boarded the plane with Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng also helped Angelina get some clothes, and there are many women's clothes. What's more, winter clothes take up more space.

Senior sisters Hannah and Kelly also took the same flight, and everyone counted the time to go to the groundbreaking ceremony first. The reception banquet of the pharmaceutical company returning to China was not as powerful as when Zhang Cheng intimidated the mentor, after all, it was a joint venture company, and eight people at a table drank half a box of beer, two bottles of white wine, and four bottles of red wine before being sent back to the star-rated hotel room to rest.

Zhang Cheng and Angelina, who were slightly drunk in the guest room, took a wash and hugged each other and fell asleep, and the next day, Zhang Cheng and the two senior sisters went to check the assembly line and process standards of the new factory, and today they will try to run the production of new drugs. This is to ensure that after tomorrow's groundbreaking ceremony, the first batch of new diet pills will be able to come down from the automated assembly line at the push of a button.

The new factory covers an area of 22 acres, in addition to two sets of automatic assembly line workshops, is a warehouse, office, laboratory, dormitory area, green area, sewage treatment area, canteen, entertainment area - the most occupied entertainment area has a non-standard outdoor basketball court and a non-standard outdoor football field. Taking into account the national situation, there are also two table tennis cases.

More than 500 workers in the factory were recruited as early as three months ago. Including more than 100 sales representatives who are undergoing training – this is nothing to the world's largest human power country. Only a dozen of them are graduates of the university's biomedical department, and they will manage the assembly line under the leadership of Hannah and Kelly.

Zhang Cheng also visited the assembly line factory, but every time he entered, he had to disinfect and wear a full set of sterile white protective clothing. But if you think about it, this is a pharmaceutical workshop, and you understand - if there is a need, these people definitely don't mind building a vacuum workshop. Then let everyone go in with an oxygen cylinder on their backs.

The most common workers have to do is the cleaning, storage, and management of various traditional Chinese medicines, as well as the storage management of new drugs. There are no packaging workers because what comes out of the assembly line is already boxes of packaged medicines.

The trial operation of the assembly line on the day was very smooth. After the first batch of new weight loss drugs came out, Hannah and Kelly conducted laboratory tests and found that their active ingredients were fully qualified, indicating that the process and assembly line were fine.

On the third day of the return to China, the groundbreaking ceremony was held, and the local county leadership team came when they had time. In the face of the foreigners in the joint ventures, they shook hands and took photos. Angelina, as Zhang Cheng's female companion, was almost mistaken for the American management of the joint venture because of her white skin and red hair.

Zhang Cheng, as one of the shareholders, and the Chinese management of the company were a little cold. Although there are also county leaders who come to shake hands and greet them, the frequency of photography is much lower, and they won't be on the news if they think about it, no way, the image is innate. In this small place, where you may not see a foreigner for decades, the image of foreigners is still attractive.

A factory with more than 500 people is only a small factory in China compared with tens of thousands of enterprises, but for the county, an enterprise with more than 500 people is already a star enterprise. Whether in terms of the scale of employment, image, or future tax revenue and exports, the presence of enterprises in the local area is a shot in the arm for the local economy.

Although the new joint venture factory does not have American wages, other systems are moved back from the United States, from insurance benefits to workers' rest and vacation time, and there is absolutely no suspicion of sweatshop. In addition to technical staff and management, they are all recruited and trained locally.

After the groundbreaking ceremony, as the American general manager of the new factory pressed the assembly line button, dozens of minutes later, boxes of new weight loss drugs came out of the assembly line and were put into storage by workers.

The groundbreaking ceremony of the new factory is over, and for Zhang Cheng, the task is completed and he goes home.

The address of the new factory is a county away from Zhang Cheng's home, and the straight-line distance is not too far, and if the road conditions are good, it will take up to 30 minutes to drive home. The new pharmaceutical factory was built there because it is the largest ginseng breeding area in China, and it can sign a contract with ginseng farmers to guarantee the purchase of this main drug.

Originally, in addition to a part of the local farmed ginseng for domestic consumption, the rest was sold to Japan and South Korea, and they processed it into ginseng essence and then sold it back to China to make a profit. The advantage of the establishment of the new pharmaceutical factory is that there is one more buyer for ginseng farmers, so that Japan and South Korea will not be able to buy ginseng at a low price.

The cycle of cultivated ginseng is relatively long, and it takes six years to mature, after all, this is not a radish that is ripe once a year in the field. Therefore, even if they see that ginseng farmers make a lot of money, there are not many farmers who have the financial ability and courage not to get income from the land for five consecutive years - who knows what the price of ginseng will be after six years.

In the afternoon, Zhang Cheng and Angelina took the hotel car back to their home, no one at home, which is not surprising, if Zhang Cheng is not at home, his mother will go to the street to make soy sauce in person. Fortunately, Zhang Cheng still has the key to the house, so he opened the door and entered the house.

After Zhang Cheng entered, he found that although a lot of electrical appliances had been replaced in the house, it was still his own home. When I returned to my room, everything was so familiar, and the English and various revision materials I bought on the desk were there. The bed was cleaned up neatly and neatly, of course, this was not cleaned up by Zhang Cheng. Zhang Cheng opened the wardrobe and found that his previous clothes had not been thrown away.

Zhang Cheng knew that there was no shortage of money at home now, and he didn't need these things, and keeping these was nothing more than a miss for his parents - seeing things and thinking about people. Seeing this, Zhang Cheng's eyes were rarely sour.

Zhang Cheng said to Angelina: "Look, this is the house I used to live in. ”

Angelina: "The bed is so small. ”

Zhang Cheng: "I started sleeping in this bed when I was ten years old, is there a small benefit to a small bed, you say, I press you or you press me at night." ”

Angelina: "I...... Think about it. ”

Taking advantage of Angelina's time to think, Zhang Cheng returned to the living room and took out the large and small bags of things stored in the Qiankun bag. Some meat and red wine need to be put in the refrigerator, but fortunately, the home has been replaced with a large refrigerator with a double door and a large capacity, otherwise it is not very easy to put in.

When his mother came home from grocery shopping, Zhang Cheng had already cooked steak in the kitchen with Angelina, and the beef brought this time was all high-end goods - not the kind of Wagyu beef grown by massaging, drinking beer and listening to music, but the best beef obtained from wild stocking by Piflo cattle crossed with American bison, more than 100 dollars per pound of good meat - in contrast, the standard grade fresh beef that the largest production and the most eaten by ordinary people in the United States is only about five dollars a pound in the United States.

Mom breathed a sigh of relief when she saw Zhang Cheng in the kitchen: "I thought I forgot to lock the door, you kid, don't make a phone call when you come back." ”

Zhang Cheng: "Come back, come back, what to call, Mom, you told me last time that international calls are very expensive......

Then Zhang Cheng introduced Angelina: "Mom, this is my girlfriend." Angelina. Angelina, this is my mother, called Mom. ”

Mom looked at Angelina, who was red-haired with hips and breasts, and pulled Zhang Cheng aside: "The stinky boy has good eyesight, look at this body, he can milk two children." Is it your classmate? ”

Zhang Cheng: "No, Angelina graduated from high school and now takes care of me at home. ”

When my mother heard this, she was even more satisfied: "That's better, you don't have to take a leave of absence from school." ”

Zhang Cheng: It doesn't matter if my mother is a classmate or not.

Mom said: "It's still humane in the school now, and you can suspend your children's ...... during school."

Zhang Cheng thought to himself: I remember that you and your father don't seem to have graduated from college, and if you let students take a leave of absence from high school, will anyone still go to school? (To be continued......)
