Factory Director Wang asked with a serious expression, "Team Leader Feng, can my words prove anything?"
Feng Yanyan opened her mouth, hesitated, and finally nodded with a forced expression, "Yes, yes."
Factory Director Wang glanced around, especially at Fang Qiaoqiao and Feng Yanyan, and said earnestly, "It's not a bad thing that you have opinions about the competition results, but you should express your opinions in the right way. Fighting won't solve anything."
"I know everyone has many questions about the competition results. Fortunately, I and several worker representatives who participated in the voting are here. Please feel free to raise any questions you may have."
Upon hearing what Director Wang said, someone immediately raised their hand, "Director Wang, what exactly is the relationship between Comrade Yu Yao and Manager Wu? Are they siblings?"
Factory Director Wang smiled and looked at Wu Huaiqing: "Manager Wu, how about we answer this question for everyone?"
Wu Huaiqing nodded, stepped forward, and quickly glanced at Fang Qiaoqiao.
“Yu Yao is indeed my sister. I lost both my parents when I was young, and my aunt and uncle raised me. I believe everyone has heard about the couple on the island who found their biological daughter who had been missing for twenty years. That biological daughter is my sister Yu Yao.”
The incident was even reported in the newspapers, and everyone heard about it, but no one expected that the protagonist of the incident was right next to them.
"Manager Nawu, are you sure you didn't favor Yu Yao during the preliminary rounds because of your relationship with her?"
"No. I can assure you of that. I, Wu Huaiqing, have never abused my power because of relationships, nor do I do it now, nor will I do it in the future."
Wu Huaiqing spoke with a strong and clear voice, and continued, "It's not that I, as her older brother, have blind confidence in my sister. My sister's cooking skills are comparable to those of the head chefs in state-run restaurants. She absolutely deserves the results of this competition. She doesn't need to, and has no need to, use such methods to pass the competition."
Feng Yanyan wanted to say something, but after glancing at the eyes of those around her, she reluctantly shut her mouth.
Factory Director Wang nodded in satisfaction at Wu Huaiqing, then beckoned Yu Yao over and had his secretary give her the items.
"Comrade Yu Yao, this is the self-recommendation letter you wrote when you submitted the list of canned food R&D personnel. Please read it to everyone."
Yu Yao took the letter, opened it, and read aloud: "Dear factory leaders, I am Yu Yao, the syrup mixologist in the fruit canning workshop. I have developed a total of nine types of canned goods, namely four categories: meat canned goods, seafood canned goods, vegetable canned goods, and fruit canned goods..."
"Pork and beef canned goods are currently the two types of canned goods that our factory exports the most and earns the most foreign exchange, but there are too few varieties of these two types of canned goods."
I reviewed the list of canned goods transactions at the Canton Fair in recent years and found that the buyers were mainly concentrated in Asian countries and regions. However, our canned goods tastes are more inclined towards Western countries and regions, which has resulted in our canned goods transaction volume not being able to increase significantly each year.
"The two canned beef and pork products I developed are more suitable for the tastes of Asian regions and countries... In addition, I found that the sales volume of canned black bean dace and canned anchovies has been increasing year by year, but our factory does not have the corresponding canned products. So I absorbed the advantages of the traditional methods of making black bean dace and anchovies in Guangdong Province, and developed them by combining the strengths and making up for the weaknesses..."
"Guangdong Province is a major fruit-producing province, with tens of thousands of tons of fruit produced every year. After the fruit ripens, there are no other sales channels besides selling it to purchasing stations. It can only rot on the trees or be destroyed by typhoons."
“The production teams on the islands and surrounding areas that grow fruit can only watch helplessly as their hard work goes to waste. If we could add more types of canned fruit, it would not only increase the income of the commune and the production teams, but also allow comrades in inland areas that are not suitable for growing fruit to eat fruit and be free from the troubles of constipation, mouth ulcers and other diseases…”
To write this letter of self-recommendation, Yu Yao consulted a lot of materials and documents, and even asked Wu Huaiqing for help. It took her a week to finish writing it.
The lengthy recommendation letter, spanning four pages, not only analyzed the author's initial motivation for creating this canned food product but also explained the benefits that the canned food research and development would bring to the country and its people.
Of course, most importantly, the canned food she developed really does taste good enough to justify the content of this recommendation letter.
After Yu Yao finished reading her letter, everyone present fell silent.
Even Feng Yanyan was shocked and couldn't find a reason to cause trouble for a moment.
No one expected that Yu Yao would have such profound insights and conduct such detailed research on what was just a canned food competition.
This letter of recommendation is not only well-reasoned and supported by evidence, but also demonstrates a broad perspective. Yu Yao has already envisioned the significance of future canned food research and development, while they are still suspecting that others' excellence is due to cheating.
With such a comparison, the difference in quality becomes immediately apparent.
After Yu Yao finished reading, Factory Director Wang spoke up: "We voted for Yu Yao not only because of this letter of recommendation, but also because her canned goods really taste good. This is something that I and the other worker representatives agree with."
The other worker representatives echoed in unison: "That's right, Yu Yao's canned food definitely deserves this result."
Director Wang and several worker representatives are all highly respected leaders in the factory. Even they personally came out to vouch for them, so what else could anyone doubt?
When they thought about the results of the competition, their first reaction was to suspect that the other party had cheated, rather than to think that the other party was really good enough.
For a moment, many people felt ashamed of their behavior.
"Comrade Yu Yao, I'm sorry, I apologize for my careless words just now."
"Me too. I shouldn't have suspected you of having an improper relationship with Manager Wu without any evidence."
"And me, I'm sorry!"
Factory Director Wang saw what everyone was thinking and felt genuinely gratified. Of course, his goal was not only to clear Yu Yao's name, but also to hope that the factory workers could learn from Yu Yao.
Fang Qiaoqiao tidied her disheveled hair and looked at Feng Yanyan rudely: "And you, Feng Yanyan. Not only did you make wild guesses, but you also added fuel to the fire and slandered Yu Yao. Shouldn't you apologize?"
All eyes turned to Feng Yanyan.
Feng Yanyan's face turned pale and then red, wishing she could find a hole to crawl into.
Who would have thought that Yu Yao and Wu Huaiqing were actually siblings? It's all her friend's fault for not finding out properly, causing her to misunderstand and make a big joke of herself.
She's now in a dilemma; apologizing isn't an option, nor is not apologizing. She's just standing there silently, hoping to get away with it.
Factory Director Wang was intolerant of any wrongdoing and hated shoddy work even more. He spoke directly: "Team Leader Feng, because your irresponsible behavior has caused harm to Yu Yao and Manager Wu, now that the truth has come out, you should apologize to Comrade Yu Yao and Manager Wu in public."
