"Director Qiao, over here."
As soon as Qiao Wanyue exited the station, she saw Secretary Qu wearing a Zhongshan suit, with three jeeps parked behind him.
Qiao Wanyue twitched the corner of her mouth.
She waved her hand, "Secretary Qu."
Secretary Qu was holding up a sign to welcome "Qiao Wanyue, Factory Director of Linxian County".
They gave me a lot of face.
Two cars led the way.
Sitting in the car, Qiao Wanyue laughed and said, "You have quite the entourage now, with three cars."
Secretary Qu knew she was joking. Qiao Wanyue would come once a month after the New Year, and she had already come this month, but the factory's machines had a temporary problem, and her apprentices couldn't do anything about it, so they had to call in more people.
Knowing that Qiao Wanyue is busy, I won't bother her with ordinary matters.
"I heard that your pastry factory wants to expand to the provincial capital?"
Qiao Wanyue nodded, "The market in Linxian is too small. We are different from your state-owned factories. The government will not provide subsidies. We are self-sufficient and have to pay taxes. We must expand external demand."
Secretary Qu tentatively asked, "Pastries and mooncakes?"
Qiao Wanyue shook her head, "Not necessarily. There are other snacks as well. We've recently started producing cookies and a lot of other things for children. We'll finalize the business deal in the provincial capital around June or July."
Secretary Qu understood the situation.
She's giving herself a heads-up.
Secretary Qu wasn't too worried. They already had established brands and customers, and if they didn't come, there would be others.
Upon arriving at the food factory, Secretary Qu led everyone to the workshop, where a large machine had malfunctioned. A very small screw had been mishandled by the operator, causing a misalignment and rendering the other functions ineffective.
Qiao Wanyue noticed the problem at a glance.
It was resolved quickly.
The technician breathed a sigh of relief. "Master, thank goodness you came today. If you hadn't, Secretary Qu would have eaten me alive." The technician patted his chest.
The technician was a young man who had just graduated from an industrial and agricultural university and was assigned here. He was an excellent student, but he was afraid of practical work. Qiao Wanyue came to guide him twice, and he naturally called her "master".
He was older than Qiao Wanyue. Qiao Wanyue corrected him twice, but he wouldn't change, so Qiao Wanyue just went along with it.
After adjusting the equipment, Secretary Qu took her to other workshops. Secretary Qu knew that Dahe Commune had developed other side businesses. Qiao Wanyue was not only the factory director of the pastry factory, but also the director of the commune's development department.
The provincial food factory has gathered talent and high-end food from across the province.
Secretary Qu also wanted to help Qiao Wanyue.
She was given a tour of the food factory, and even areas that were not open to the public were opened to her. After wandering around inside, Qiao Wanyue understood that Secretary Qu wanted to give the commune a helping hand.
She naturally appreciated it.
She stayed in the provincial capital for a day, where Secretary Qu warmly hosted her, even treating her to a meal and introducing her to other leaders in the factory, as well as some other factory leaders she might need. He introduced Qiao Wanyue to all of them.
We exchanged glances.
Upon hearing that she was the factory manager of a village enterprise, everyone exclaimed in surprise and looked at the girl in front of them. She looked only twenty years old, yet she was already capable of managing a factory on her own.
Seeing that Secretary Qu treated her with utmost respect, no one dared to be too presumptuous.
Qiao Wanyue navigated among these big shots with ease.
In the end, they even got a few name tags.
When she left the provincial capital, it was Secretary Qu who drove her there.
"Wanyue, go back and study hard these next two years." Secretary Qu's words had a hidden meaning.
