When the coffee came up, the two took a sip of the coffee, and Hao Weidong asked curiously, "How did you and Zhennan meet?" ”

"I fell overboard, and he saved me." Guo Xiang said briefly.

"It turned out that it was a hero who saved the United States? I said, just Zhennan's stuffy nature, it's strange for me to catch up with my daughter-in-law. Hao Weidong smiled, "So you made a promise?" ”

Guo Xiang smiled and didn't answer, of course he wouldn't say that it was actually the Guo family who relied on him.

Thinking that a few days ago, Gu Zhennan said that he would make a promise by example, and he couldn't help but show a smile on his face.

Hao Weidong saw Guo Xiang's slightly shy expression, it seems that she and Zhennan have a good relationship, and they are very happy for their brother.

"I heard Zhennan say that you and he met on the train, but how do I feel like you and him have known each other for many years?" Guo Xiang couldn't help asking.

"That's what the kid said?" Hao Weidong was stunned for a moment.

"Isn't it?" Guo Xiang looked at him, staring at the expression on his face, as if he wanted to see something.

"Hehe......" Hao Weidong laughed awkwardly, "Yes, but the two of us hit it off at first sight, I'm a person, I'm familiar, I'm like this, I talk like this, don't mind." ”

Guo Xiang was silent, feeling that there was a secret in it, but she didn't want to investigate it if people didn't say it, who didn't have a secret, and she still had a lot of secrets.

"What are you looking for me?" Hao Weidong got to the point.

"That's right, do you know the Beijing Hengtong Paper Mill?" Guo Xiang asked.

"Hengtong Paper Mill? What's wrong? Hao Weidong frowned, as if he didn't know very well.

"I heard that three years ago they imported a sanitary napkin production line, but now it is about to go out of business, I want to ask what is going on." Guo Xiang said.

"I remembered what you said, it was quite a commotion when the production line was imported, and I also interviewed their director Zheng at that time." Hao Weidong thought about it for a moment.

"It's going to go out of business now?" He was surprised.

"It's not, it's a pity, sanitary napkins are women's friends, and not producing them will bring a lot of inconvenience to the majority of women friends. I had the idea of contracting. Guo Xiang said.

"You want to contract a paper mill?" Hao Weidong was taken aback, he didn't expect Gu Zhennan's daughter-in-law to be so courageous.

"But I can't find Director Zheng, I don't know his phone number, and I don't know where his house is, can you help me contact him?" Guo Xiang said.

"Well...... this" Hao Weidong pointed his finger on the table, knocking on it, in fact, he was not familiar with Director Zheng, but he had an interview a few years ago, and he didn't know if people would see him.

"When I came, Zhennan told me not to forget your phone number, saying that you would definitely be able to help......" Guo Xiang said deliberately, it seems that this Hao Weidong should have a way, it depends on whether he is willing to help.

Hao Weidong smiled bitterly, Zhennan's kid dug a pit for his daughter-in-law to make himself jump?

Forget it, whoever calls him his good brother, he can't help the first time he asks for help, where will he put this face.

"Okay, you wait here, I'll go back and check it out and make a call." Hao Weidong said.

"Okay, I'll wait for you!" Guo Xiang had a smile on his face.

Hao Weidong paid the money by the way when he went out, and he couldn't let Zhennan's daughter-in-law pay for it the first time.

When I paid the bill, it hurt a little, two cups of coffee cost twenty yuan, and I went to one-fifth of my salary, which was expensive.

After a while, Hao Weidong came back, "Let's go, let's go to Director Zheng's house now." ”

"Thank you!" Guo Xiang smiled, sure enough, there is still a way.

Out of the coffee shop, Hao Weidong drove over a half-new side three-wheeled motorcycle, which is the kind with a bucket.

"Do you want to sit on this?" Guo Xiang was surprised.

"It's good to have this, do you think you can get me a car?" Hao Weidong smiled bitterly, "I'm just a bitter little reporter." ”

Guo Xiang pursed her lips and smiled, she just didn't expect it for a while, thinking that the reporter must have a car, but she didn't expect that it was only the eighties, how could it be so easy to have a car?

Driving a motorcycle to a teacher's community, Guo Xiang was a little surprised.

"Director Zheng's lover is a teacher, and he lives here." Hao Weidong explained.

So that's the case, Guo Xiang nodded, got out of the car, bought some fruit in the community, and couldn't come to the door empty-handed.

Hao Weidong led Guo Xiang to the corridor with three buildings written, "On the fourth floor!" ”

The two went upstairs together and stopped in front of door 402, "This is it!" Hao Weidong stepped forward and knocked on the door.

After a while, the door opened, and an old man in his fifties with half-white hair opened the door, and was a little surprised to see Guo Xiang and Hao Weidong, "Who are you?" ”

"Director Zheng, hello, I am a reporter from Beijing TV, my name is Hao Weidong!" Hao Weidong hurriedly stretched out his hand to hold Zheng Kaiyuan's hand, "You don't remember me?" I interviewed you three years ago! ”

Zheng Kaiyuan looked at Hao Weidong and then at Guo Xiang, "Do you have something?" ”

"There's something I'd like to talk to you about the paper mill." Guo Xiang said.

"Come in!" Zheng Kaiyuan opened the door, and Guo Xiang hurriedly handed over the fruit in his hand.

Zheng Kaiyuan nodded, let the two into the house, and poured two cups of tea.

"What's the matter?" Zheng Kaiyuan asked straight to the point.

"That's the case, Director Zheng, I heard that your factory imported a sanitary napkin production line three years ago, why didn't you produce it?" Guo Xiang didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.

"Alas......" Zheng Kaiyuan sighed first, and looked sad when he mentioned this, "At that time, it was also a task assigned by the superiors, and it was said that this thing was definitely easy to sell, but it couldn't be sold at all." ”

"Although the state gave a little subsidy when buying equipment, most of the money was paid by our factory itself, and later imported various raw materials and renovated the workshop.

"I spent a lot of money, but I couldn't sell things, I couldn't pay back the money I owed to others, and I couldn't pay the wages of the workers later, and now the factory is going to collapse." Zheng Kaiyuan sighed.

"Why can't it be sold?" Guo Xiang asked, "Isn't this something that every woman has to use?" ”

"We thought the same way at first, thinking that the future was very good, and there were state subsidies, why not do it? As a result, no one wants it at all. Zheng Kaiyuan said.

"Why?" Guo Xiang was still puzzled.

"Because it's expensive!" Zheng Kaiyuan said: "Three years ago, many workers only had a salary of more than 20 yuan, and a pack of sanitary napkins was almost eight cents, which did not look expensive, but a pack of toilet paper only sold for two cents. ”

"The money for a pack of sanitary napkins can buy four packs of toilet paper, that is, it can be used for four months, who will buy it, and there are very few people who can buy it, but can we rely on those few people to pay salaries? Not at all. ”

"We are blindly optimistic, blindly producing, and now there is still a warehouse of sanitary napkins piled up there that cannot be sold!" Zheng Kaiyuan sighed, "If it weren't for this, our factory wouldn't have ......, it would have been dragged down by that!" ”

"I'm sorry for the old employees in the factory, and I'm sorry for the workers who have been with me for so many years." Zheng Kaiyuan thumped his chest and looked regretful.
