After the meeting, the other seven people left, and Zhao Huanhuan, led by several leaders, toured the entire No. 1 Textile Factory again, and she had a general idea of ​​what the place was like.

"Director Zhao, if you need any help running the factory in the future, please feel free to come to us. We also have feelings for the No. 1 Textile Factory. If the industry hadn't declined so much and this factory couldn't be saved, we really wouldn't have been willing to sell it." Director Ding said on behalf of the leaders.

Zhao Huanhuan smiled and said, "Thank you, Director Ding, and thank you to all the leaders for giving me this opportunity and for supporting individual businesses. Actually, all I have now is a heart that wants to work hard. It is my honor to receive the support of the country and the leaders."

"Don't worry, leaders. Now that I've decided to enter this industry, I'll do it wholeheartedly. It's just that I have limited funds at the beginning, so I might scale down the scale and renovate the factory. I'll start from the beginning and gradually expand the scale," Zhao Huanhuan told the leaders in a deep voice, explaining her plans.

"Okay, go ahead and do it. You're a representative of the women in Yuancheng. You're bold, insightful, resourceful, and talented. Go for it. Your efforts will be rewarded."

The leaders each offered her words of encouragement.

"Thank you, leaders!" Zhao Huanhuan quickly said.

"By the way, Xiao Zhao, when we looked at your answer, you said that the main source of workers was to take in laid-off workers? How did you know that?"

The city's six textile factories were merged into five, and more will be merged gradually until only three remain. This is the first step in the aforementioned five-year plan.

After the merger, the workers will definitely be selected based on merit. Older workers will be allowed to retire early, while those who are under the age limit will be forced to retire.

But these were all internal secrets, and they didn't know how Zhao Huanhuan knew them. However, the fact that Zhao Huanhuan said the main source of workers was laid-off workers undoubtedly fit perfectly into their next plan.

So, that's the real reason they chose Zhao Huanhuan.

This was also the price they offered to support Zhao Huanhuan.

To be honest, some leaders think that such a small, run-down factory is not worth 80,000 yuan. The buildings are old, the machines are old, and the only valuable thing is the land itself.

However, since Zhao Huanhuan was chosen by them together, they could only do their best to support her.

As the provincial capital, Yuancheng is poised for vigorous development. Relying solely on state-owned factories is insufficient; they also need to support the growth of a number of private and privately-owned enterprises.

Competition creates a market. These are the words of their leader. Don't be afraid of having many businessmen; the problem is that no one is willing to do business in Yuancheng.

It just so happened that Zhao Huanhuan came along; Zhao Huanhuan was one of the first private entrepreneurs they supported.

They never expected a woman to have such great ambitions, but they would not underestimate her talent and would support her.

Moreover, some people inside already know that Zhao Huanhuan's husband's identity is not simple.

Zhao Huanhuan said with a smile, "I just did some calculations. I already know that you want to merge several textile factories. So, I think there will definitely be workers who will be laid off. Therefore, my source of workers will definitely prioritize those with work experience."

The leaders exchanged glances and nodded. "Your calculations make a lot of sense, but you can't say things like that outside, it will cause chaos."

Zhao Huanhuan nodded, "I know, leaders, don't worry."

"Didn't you ever consider that those who weren't working hard enough might be the ones laid off? After all, we also want to retain our good workers," Director Ding asked Zhao Huanhuan.

Zhao Huanhuan smiled and said, "I know, it's only natural. I'm not worried. Don't worry, I will recruit the best candidates. I have assessments for my hires, and those who pass the assessments will receive training and be subject to rules and regulations to improve and regulate them."

"In my opinion, everyone is born the same. Some people work hard, while others slack off, simply because the needles that prick them are all the same length. Some people feel the pain and move, while others don't feel the pain and don't move. It's okay, just treat the symptoms."

Zhao Huanhuan said with a smile and confidence.

The leaders exchanged glances and laughed together. To be honest, it seemed to make some sense.

Because they are a state-owned enterprise, the rules apply to everyone. Some people automatically follow the rules and work regular hours. Others, however, just want to slack off and get by day by day, since they think that whether they work hard or not, they will get the same salary.

Reassured by Zhao Huanhuan's confidence, the leaders instructed her to complete the formalities the next day before leaving.

After seeing the leaders off, Zhao Huanhuan went to check on the factory again, recorded what she saw in her diary, locked the gate, and went to the bank to withdraw money.

The next day, Zhao Huanhuan started running around processing the paperwork.

After completing the factory's paperwork, she started contacting her old classmates, asking if any of them knew any architectural designers.

It actually worked! Three days later, Zhao Huanhuan's old classmate Zhang Zheying brought his cousin to see her.

After talking with the other party and learning that they were architectural designers who graduated from Shanghai, Zhao Huanhuan took them to see the factory she had bought.

He asked the other party to review which of these buildings could be repaired and reused, how many years they could be used, and which needed to be demolished and rebuilt, and then to prepare a report for him.

Zhang Zheying's cousin, He Jun, agreed and began to carefully examine each place with Zhao Huanhuan.

Zhang Zheying understands machines, so he started helping her check them.

Just then, Hu Keke and her husband came over after getting off work at noon. Li Jinfeng and Zhang Zheying knew each other, and the two of them spent the whole noon helping Zhao Huanhuan repair the machine.
