Unexpectedly, the old lady grabbed one of them by the hand and led Xiao Jiang and Xiao Yue straight out the door.
They didn't even give the couple a chance to apologize.
"Ah, ha, look at this..."
Yu Guosheng also looked embarrassed. He spread his hands in front of Xiao Weiguo.
Xiao Weiguo asked them to come and apologize, but all he wanted was an attitude. Since they had already lowered their stance so much, Xiao Weiguo couldn't be bothered to argue with such people.
Whether or not to punish them is a matter for those in power. I believe that after this lesson, the couple will be more discreet in their behavior.
"I'm busy getting to work, everyone please go back."
Xiao Weiguo pushed his bicycle out. No one was home, and Yu Guosheng and the others couldn't stay in the yard any longer.
"Okay, you're busy, let's talk another day. I also have something to do today."
Yu Guosheng gave himself a way out, winked at his son and daughter-in-law, put down what he was holding, and left.
Xiao Weiguo was too lazy to argue with them and went to Panlong Clothing.
Now that a piece-rate system has been implemented, employees' work enthusiasm has increased significantly.
The workers in the workshop were busy working in front of the machines, and it was rare to see anyone slacking off.
Xiao Weiguo took a stroll around the factory area and was fairly satisfied with the current situation.
He then turned around and went to check the warehouse.
The warehouse is piled high with newly produced trench coats, and the four workshops are producing continuously, with more than 5,000 coats already made.
Xiao Weiguo inspected the raw materials. Of the leftover woolen fabric, a little over half had been used, and the rest would last for at most another week.
Finally, he made a tough decision and had the finance department take out all the money to buy woolen raw materials.
With some time still to go before payday, Xiao Weiguo believes that trench coats will definitely become a hit before payday.
Although most of the factory cadres disagreed with his approach, production continued despite his insistence.
On September 28th, just before National Day, the movie "A Better Tomorrow," starring international superstar Chow Tai Fook, was released in China.
This film, with its unique perspective, perfectly portrays a man's courage and boldness. It is still regarded as a pinnacle of Hong Kong cinema.
The image of Mark Gor in the film, wearing sunglasses, a trench coat, and holding a match in his mouth, became an overnight sensation across the country.
Back then, it captivated countless young women and inspired many young people to imitate it.
In the film industry, this can definitely be called a phenomenal craze.
Xiao Weiguo, who had been preparing for many days, had been waiting for this day to arrive.
He rented a counter in a state-owned department store early on, in the most conspicuous spot near the entrance.
On October 1st, taking advantage of the National Day holiday and the popularity of "A Better Tomorrow" sweeping through their small town, he had already put out a large number of trench coats.
To enhance the visual impact, Xiao Weiguo even commissioned several posters of Chow Yun-fat to be displayed around the counter.
A banner was hung above the counter, which read: Panlong Apparel launches the same trench coat worn by Marc Jacobs.
Xiao Weiguo bought a pair of large sunglasses, wore a trench coat produced by his own factory, and walked back and forth in front of the counter.
He was tall and, after being groomed, his demeanor was very similar to that of Zhou Dafa. His image, wearing a trench coat and with his hands in his pockets, quickly attracted the attention of many people.
"Am I blind? Is that Zhou Dafa?"
"You're really blind. I know that person. I heard he's the chairman of Panlong Apparel, named Xiao Weiguo."
"Is that Xiao Weiguo, the first person to contract a state-owned factory?"
"Wow, this guy is so handsome, especially that trench coat, isn't it the same one that Little Ma wore?"
Some of the girls stared at Xiao Weiguo with sparkling eyes.
Xiao Weiguo has such a thick skin that he's not afraid of being on stage at all.
"How about it? The same style worn by Marc Jacobs, the first of its kind in China, the Panlong brand wool trench coat. Available at our store."
Immediately, the sales clerks behind the counter joined in, shouting out to him.
"Panlong brand trench coat, the same style worn by Marc Jacobs, special price for the first day, only 198. Don't miss out on today, this price will never be available again."
Many young people's eyes were immediately drawn to a row of trench coats on the shelf.
"Comrade, 198 is too expensive! It's equivalent to two months' salary for me."
"What? Expensive, comrade? Look at the fabric, the workmanship, the design. The cost of one piece is almost this much. If it weren't for the first day of its launch, and the need to open up the market, you might not even be able to buy it for 298."
The sales clerk took down a trench coat and showed it to the customers inside and out.
Indeed, the woolen fabric, silk lining, and glittering gold buttons give it a substantial feel and exude a sense of luxury.
Can I try?
Some young people couldn't resist and asked to try them on.
"Of course, you can try it out whether you buy it or not. You can pay only if you're satisfied."
The sales clerk found the appropriate size based on his measurements and handed it over.
The young man put it on, turned around in front of the full-length mirror, and immediately felt that his temperament had improved.
"How is it? Does it look good?"
He asked the people around him with a hint of smugness.
With Chow Yun-fat's deeply ingrained image as a spokesperson, people's aesthetic sense is shifting in this direction, and this trench coat would look good on any man.
Seeing everyone's surprised expressions, especially the many young girls pointing and whispering about him, the young man's vanity was immediately aroused.
"I'll take this one."
The young man pulled out his wallet and quickly counted out twenty ten-yuan bills. Although his heart was bleeding, he didn't hesitate for a moment.
