"You believe it? I've noticed a common trait among you technicians: you're all extremely confident, always thinking you can do a good job. I'd like to ask you, what are your credentials?"
Why do you think you can do it well?
"I..." Wang He was about to say something. Although she hadn't had much experience with fabrics before, she had gone through training.
"Alright, alright, hurry up and go check the machines outside. If any parameters are wrong and the number of pieces produced is insufficient, the responsibility will not be borne by you or me."
Wang He had no choice but to go outside and inspect the machines.
Shen Xuebing glanced at her back and said, "They're just lucky. This unit is under the jurisdiction of the military region, which is why they were made technicians."
Back in our day, you had to start as an apprentice in the factory doing regular work for a while before you could become a technician.
It's not just about working long enough to get a position; you also need to have the ability.
Liu Jun: "They are just lucky, so they are arrogant and think they are capable enough. In fact, it would be the same if someone else were in their shoes."
Song Qing disliked middle-aged leaders in both her lives. She originally thought that in this life, after entering the military region's family factory, most of the workers she would come into contact with would be women, and their ages should be similar.
Unexpectedly, I ended up encountering two middle-aged colleagues, the kind who considered themselves highly capable.
They looked down on them, thinking they only became technicians because of their status.
Song Qing didn't want to deny that if it weren't for the family factory run by the family compound, she probably would never have come into contact with fabrics or machines, nor would she have become a technician.
But aren't they also working in the family-run factories in the residential compound? The purpose of these factories is to solve the employment problem for family members. They are family members, so ultimately, these factories are set up for them.
Why can't they be technicians?
Moreover, it's not easy for them to be technicians. They have to select so many people from such a large family compound and even go to other places for training.
They put in just as much effort.
Guan Lian looked up. A group of people were right next to them, and she had heard the commotion from over there.
Unlike Liu Jun and the other person, she didn't think that Song Qing and the others were lucky to become technicians. She was grateful to her family and the factory for providing her with a job.
Moreover, the majority of the people inside are from the family compound; everyone there is from the family compound, so why bother targeting them?
She sighed, fearing that in the end, the other family compound would turn them, the later recruits, into one faction, while they would form their own.
"Sister Guan, why do the fabric properties change so much after adding 40% polyester?"
"Let me see."
Song Qing only had issues with Liu Jun and the other person. Guan Lian in her group was quite easy to get along with, and she would patiently answer any questions asked to her.
The two of them gathered around the friction machine, and Song Qing showed her the fabric that had undergone the friction test.
"It's not wear-resistant, it's extremely not wear-resistant. It will wear out after only a few hundred strokes."
Guan Lian didn't know why, but the two of them huddled together discussing something, while Liu Jun was in a hurry to use the friction machine.
"Are we going to use the machine?"
Song Qing couldn't figure out the reason and was extremely annoyed, so she rolled her eyes at him.
"Comrade Liu, didn't you see we're using it?"
Liu Jun didn't expect Song Qing to roll her eyes at him like that. He only came because the textile factory offered him generous terms. How old is she? She really doesn't know her place.
"You're wasting our time using it, so don't think you'll know everything after just one month of emergency training."
We've been doing this for years and only just scratched the surface. Young people need to be patient and not be so impulsive.
His words were quite offensive. All the technicians from the family compound went for a month of training, and for a while, the technicians from the family compound all looked unwell.
Guan Lian sighed inwardly, hoping that she wouldn't be grouped with Liu Jun.
Song Qing smiled and said, "Being young only means we have more opportunities. Comrade Liu thinks you have more experience than us, but at the moment everyone is at the same pace. I don't know where your rich experience lies."
Since Director Zhang has divided us into three groups, it means she has the same expectations for all of us.
Even the factory staff didn't think you could definitely succeed. Song Qing couldn't understand why Liu Jun was so confident. It was one thing for him to be confident, but he also thought they definitely couldn't succeed.
"In addition, the equipment in the testing workshop is for public use. Since we are using it, we hope you can follow the rules and queue properly."
After finishing her sentence, Song Qing continued the previous topic. Liu Jun, embarrassed by her public display of respect, blushed and clenched his fists before angrily leaving the workshop.
After discussing it with Guan Lian for a while, they still couldn't reach a conclusion, so Song Qing decided to try again.
Ma Lanxiang secretly sidled up to her and said, "This Comrade Liu Jun seems to have a lot of opinions about us. He looks down on us and thinks that our experiments are a waste of the factory's materials, even though we haven't offended him."
Song Qing wanted to say that she was also baffled. When the two first met, Liu Jun's eyes were already looking down on everyone.
She was certain that the two had never met before.
"Who cares? He's just a colleague." Maybe he just has something wrong with his head.
“I was afraid he would go to the factory manager to complain, because he seemed rather petty.”
Song Qing smiled and said, "It's alright. We're not afraid of him if he complains."
Liu Jun certainly didn't go to his superiors to complain. What could he say? Could he say that Song Qing, a young female comrade, had embarrassed him in public? He felt too ashamed to say it.
Moreover, Song Qing has close ties with the leadership of the textile factory, so even if you went to talk to him, it would probably be useless, so it's better not to bother.
He believed that as long as he demonstrated his work ability and developed the first fabric needed by the factory, not only Song Qing, but even the leaders would have to treat him with respect.
Shen Xuebing didn't step in to help them when they started arguing, mainly because they were both men, while the other side was a young woman. Even if they won the argument, she would just say that they were bullying her.
He now shares Liu Jun's view that the most important thing is to demonstrate ability at work.
Song Qingcai didn't care what they were thinking; she was incredibly agitated.
There is a critical point for adding polyester to fabrics. Before that critical point is exceeded, the blended fabric will have the advantages of both.
Once that critical point is exceeded, the fabric will become rough and its abrasion resistance will be poor.
Lu Yang noticed that his wife had been a bit irritable these past two days, so he quickly signaled to his daughter not to provoke her mother and tried his best to control himself, for fear of being beaten up for no reason.
"How about we have an apple?"
After returning, Song Qing sat in the courtyard. In front of her were the fabrics she had produced in the experimental workshop. She frowned and stared at them for a long time but still couldn't figure them out.
Lu Yang quickly plucked an apple from the tree, intending to offer it as a gift. Song Qing took the apple and took a bite.
"By the way, we're going to a wedding in a few days."
"Whose?"
"Zhou Shuyi and Lin Haiping, let's all go as a family."
