“It’s not fair!”
"We are both garment factories, but why is their booth so big? Why do they occupy such an important booth? We can only be in a corner!"
"Yes! It's not fair! We demand redistricting! We demand a lottery!"
The next day, when Song Fuyu and her friends entered the meeting place after breakfast, they heard several sharp and echoing protests.
I was originally planning to watch the fun, but after looking around... wow, those people were surrounding their booth and protesting loudly.
Opposite them stood a few comrades who were probably the venue staff.
You didn't buy a good melon, but ended up eating it on your own head.
"Xiao Ming, go to the police station and ask a few police officers to come over."
Tomorrow is the opening day of the trade fair. This group of people obviously wants to prevent their clothing factory from participating. In the end, if the arrangements are not made according to their requirements, there is a very high possibility that they will destroy the booth they have already arranged.
A head-on approach wouldn't work. After all, they couldn't have someone guarding here 24 hours a day. Instead of going up to argue with them and arguing with them, it would be better to just find a few people who could control them.
"Director Xiao Song, what is the name I should use to invite people here?"
Xiao Ming didn't understand her sudden instruction at all.
"Gathering a crowd to fight, provoking trouble, damaging public property, threatening or intimidating... you can use any of them you want."
"Speak more seriously in case people ignore you."
"Okay, I'll go now."
After Xiao Ming left, Song Fuyu brought Mrs. Liu over.
They didn't rush to stand up. The two of them were no match for so many people. They decided to wait until Uncle Zhao and Ye Hongbing arrived.
"Everyone calm down first, don't quarrel!"
The staff tried their best to maintain order, but unfortunately the effect was minimal.
"We are now facing such serious unfair treatment, how can you expect us to remain calm?"
"Get your leader here right away!"
"Yes! Call the leader here. He must give us an explanation today!"
"We can't give you the explanation you want right now. We'll call our leader to talk about this matter later, and we'll tell you the result when we have it. Is that ok with you?"
"Don't try to trick us. You just want to delay time and trick us into compromise. It's obvious that you two are in the same group."
The venue staff felt very innocent listening to what they said.
How did they become a group?
The booths were divided according to the sales at the end of the previous year. For factories that did not go to Haishi, the sales at the last trade fair were used, and the booths were divided in turn from top to bottom.
This is how trade fairs have always been run, and no factory has ever complained.
The staff also knew that they just thought that the Qin City Garment Factory's booth was so beautifully decorated that it stole everyone's limelight.
"Comrade, we all work for the country, and no one is in league with anyone else..."
One of the staff members stood up to refute, but before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the emotional group.
"Stop talking nonsense and call someone who can speak effectively!"
Seeing that order was about to be completely unmaintained, the staff member who had spoken just now whispered a few words to a younger comrade nearby.
After he finished speaking, the young comrade quickly ran out of the venue.
"What is this for?"
Song Fuyu and her friends bought steamed buns in the morning and ate them while walking, while Zhao Da and his friends had noodles, so they came a little late.
Seeing everyone surrounding their booth with unfriendly expressions, and some even holding sticks, Zhao Da and Ye Hongbing suddenly became serious from their original relaxed state.
Although they didn't know what happened before they came, they guessed something by looking at the situation before them.
"Here they are! These two are the directors of the Qin City Garment Factory!"
One person pointed at Zhao Da and Ye Hongbing and spoke to people who didn't know them.
"You came at the perfect time. The venue doesn't need to re-divide the booths, but the prerequisite is that you must take down your things!"
"Tear it down?"
"Haha, this comrade is joking."
Zhao Da laughed out loud after hearing this.
They were all working in the areas allocated to them, so why should they be demolished?
"Don't try to fool us here. If you don't tear it down, don't blame us for doing it for you."
"I don't know how our Qin City Garment Factory offended you and made you so resentful."
"The booths were allocated by the venue and the Ministry of Commerce based on previous sales. Our factory staff only found out about our allocated booths after they came here. Over the years, the booths have been allocated according to this convention, and no one has any objections."
“You can’t tear down or destroy our exhibition just because we set up something different from yours. This is not fairness, it’s robbery.”
"Everyone comes to the exhibition with only one purpose, which is to earn more foreign exchange and contribute to the country."
"Everyone in our factory is working wholeheartedly for the country. I believe your behavior of destroying unity will be justified no matter where we go!"
Although Zhao Da's words seemed to be speaking for himself on the surface, he was actually accusing them in disguise.
In this era, the label of destroying unity is not something that ordinary people can bear.
Hearing his words, some timid people began to back away.
But there are still some people who refuse to give in and continue to protest.
"You're saying that because you got a good booth! You made your booth so fancy to attract everyone's attention, but what are you going to do with our booth in the corner?"
"You should figure it out on your own instead of asking me what to do!"
"At the trade fair in Hai City at the end of last year, our Qin City Garment Factory was also assigned a corner position, but we were not afraid of the harsh environment and found a way out for ourselves. In the end, we signed an order of nearly 30 million US dollars."
"I believe that everything depends on human effort. We can do it, and you will definitely not be inferior to us. Come on!"
Zhao Da made a cheering gesture, which he learned from Song Fuyu. She often did this to cheer everyone up.
