Sure enough, the next second, Director Wang spoke up: "Everyone, please don't rush. The canteen has prepared lunch for everyone. There are still some preparatory work to be done for the new production line. After lunch, I will take you on a tour."

He waved to Yu Yao and introduced her to the others with a smile: "Let me introduce you to Yu Yao, the worker who received the most votes in this canned food research and development competition."

She not only broke our factory's record for the number of canned goods that made it to the preliminary round of canned food R&D, but she's also the youngest participant this time. You absolutely must try her canned goods; you'll be pleasantly surprised.

Upon hearing Director Wang's words, Zhao E's face stiffened.

She never expected that Director Wang would endorse Yu Yao; this was just too unfair.

Everyone else made it to the finals, so why is Yu Yao the only one who gets this opportunity?

Zhao E clenched her fists, wanting to say something, but was warned by the look of the management team leader who was watching her, telling her to behave herself.

She could only suppress her dissatisfaction.

These visiting comrades had known Director Wang for many years, and this was the first time they had seen him praise a young man so highly. They immediately turned their attention to Yu Yao.

Yu Yao stood tall and straight, her expression calm.

Seeing everyone looking over, she smiled and introduced herself, "Hello everyone, I am Yu Yao, a syrup mixologist in the fruit canning workshop of Haixing Food Factory. I am very happy to introduce the canned fruit I developed to you."

Her voice was clear and strong, and her attitude was neither humble nor arrogant. She was full of youthful vigor and vitality, which made people's eyes light up and they couldn't help but turn their attention to her.

It makes a very good first impression.

Especially when compared to Zhao E's performance earlier, her excellence and confidence are even more apparent.

"This young lady is so young, yet she has such composure and poise; it's truly remarkable. My name is He Chunyun, and I am the purchasing manager at Hongqi Department Store."

The speaker was a female purchasing staff member. She had short, ear-length hair, wore a blue cotton coat, and her eyes were full of admiration for Yu Yao.

Yu Yao smiled and said, "Manager He, thank you for your praise. I will continue to work hard."

The others were also very satisfied with Yu Yao's performance.

People in this era are more simple-minded. Leaders like to promote and cultivate outstanding young people. Seeing Yu Yao's performance, they are willing to stop and listen to her introduction.

Some people remembered what Factory Director Wang had just said about her canned food breaking records, and that it would be their loss if they didn't try it, so they immediately became very interested in Yu Yao's canned food.

"Comrade Yu, please tell us about your canned goods."

"Okay, leaders, please follow me." Yu Yao said, leading everyone to the side. As she passed Zhao E, her smile became even brighter.

Zhao E's eyes were red with jealousy. She regretted not introducing Yu Yao first, as she had ended up getting the better deal.

If she had the factory manager's endorsement, the purchasing team would definitely be more willing to try selling her canned goods, and her sales would surely be better.

If sales are good, you can win the competition, become the foreman of the new production line, and receive a refrigerator.

That's a refrigerator.

Because she took the lead, she ended up narrowing the road, which made Zhao E very upset.

After leading everyone over, Yu Yao didn't immediately start introducing the canned goods. Instead, she took out a cotton mask from her green military satchel and put it on her face.

In those days, cotton gauze masks were mainly used in hospitals and some factories with a lot of dust. People in canning factories wore masks relatively rarely.

Seeing the questioning looks from the crowd, Yu Yao smiled and explained, "This is a mask I made from cotton yarn. Wearing it can prevent saliva from falling into the food when I'm introducing it."

She paused for a moment, then added, "After all, we produce food, and since food is meant to be consumed, hygiene must be ensured."

Upon hearing this, everyone looked at Zhao E, clearly recalling the scene where she had used her muddy hands to grab the beef and then made them taste it.

Zhao E's face flushed red and then turned pale. Yu Yao's words were like a resounding slap in the face, leaving her utterly devastated.

This woman must have done it on purpose.

Zhao E looked up at Yu Yao, who looked back at her with eyes that seemed to say, "I did it on purpose, so what can you do about it?"

Seeing Zhao E's helpless rage despite her inability to get rid of her, Yu Yao smiled and continued her introduction to everyone.

She started preparing for this presentation the night before last.

She wrote two pages of content for the presentation and revised it three or four times before finalizing it. She spent several hours memorizing it so that she could give the speech without notes today.

She did this not only to win the championship, but more importantly, she hoped that the sales of these canned goods would help the various communes on the island to sell the seafood and fruits that could not be sold and could only be used to feed chickens and pigs or rot, so as to have more income to improve their lives.

Yu Yao presented five different types of canned goods in the first segment, telling each one a story in a captivating way.

From why we chose to develop this particular canned food, to its characteristics, how it differs from other canned foods, and even the meaning behind each canned food.

When discussing the significance of the event, Yu Yao went from the individual level to the commune level, and then to the national level, which moved everyone to tears.

People of this era are truly passionate, selfless, and consider contributing to the organization their mission. Yu Yao's words deeply moved them.

The whole process was more like a new product launch, it was like a game-changer.

People of this generation have never seen such a hardcore introduction before. After listening, they were all deeply moved and the room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
