Gao highlighted waved his hand and said, "Mr. Liu, I'm not Gao Chairman. In fact, your Chairman hasn't come to Guocun Textile Factory in a long time! We'll meet again in the main conference room of Guocun Textile Factory next week!" "Oh! Oh! Yes, yes!" Liu Ming nodded repeatedly, showing great respect to Gao. Shen Hanfu tossed a copy of the Hanshai City Daily to Gao Zhongming, who took it and looked dejected. Immediately, he grabbed a bottle of beer, gulped it down in one go, then set the bottle aside and said, "How glorious this factory used to be! Once a shining star of the city—when I was just a junior cadre in the workshop, I too benefited from its success and raised my son. Now, everything's gone. Everything's gone! We're both completely unemployed. What will we do now? What will we do? Why is it so hard to find a job?" With these words, he leaned over the desk and began trembling—Shen Hanfu noticed that her usually dry husband was now weeping. "Dad! Mom! I'm back!" A voice came from outside, soft and gentle, like a gentle spring breeze. Gao Zhongming and Shen Hanfu were both startled: "Liang! The National Day holiday is over, right? Great! Great!" "However, when Shen Hanfu returned, he found it difficult to explain the situation—he had already reached the point where the family could no longer afford food and was on the verge of going hungry. Gao Liang naturally knew that the family faced serious financial difficulties. Although he had not brought much money back this time, he still placed 500 yuan firmly into his mother's hands and said, "Mom! This is the money I've earned. Please use it!" His father, Gao Zhongming, looked at his son and said, "Son! I truly feel helpless. I've always had to worry about the family, and now I'm burdening you with my concerns!" Yet Gao Liang smiled calmly and reassured his parents, "We're not born with misfortune. We can change our own circumstances of poverty!" With confidence shining in his eyes, Gao Zhongming and Shen Hanfu were deeply impressed by his confidence and composure, repeatedly exclaiming, "Excellent! Excellent! I truly believe our son Gao Liang is capable!" One week later, on October 6th, at the plaza of the First National Cotton Mill Factory in Hanhai City, the scene was bustling and lively, and a grand Since the founding of the State Cotton Mill, every employee who has worked there—whether permanent or temporary—still alive today has been invited by their friends to attend the grand opening ceremony of the No. 1 State Cotton Mill in Hanshai City. All attendees receive a complimentary gift: a beautiful handkerchief, said to be the mill's most proud product. This handkerchief once sold widely across the country, from north to south, becoming a popular gift exchanged among people. Employees who have worked at the mill have developed deep affection for this handkerchief. Amidst the excitement and cheers, Gao Liang stepped onto the stage, addressed the audience through the microphone, and announced: "Dear colleagues, fellow citizens! Respected colleagues! Good morning! Today, I am pleased to announce that starting from today, State Cotton Mill No. 1 will undergo a complete transformation, undergo resource restructuring, and begin producing the most popular women's thermal undergarments in today's market!" Clapping! Clapping! Clapping! The audience immediately erupted into enthusiastic applause. "Next, please allow Ms. Zhang Yuping to explain the features and market potential of this women's thermal undergarment!" The announcement startled Ms. Zhang, who was completely unprepared. Her maternal guardian, however, gently urged her forward, saying, "Peng! Someone's calling you!" When Ms. Zhang turned toward the stage, wow—her husband! She had come today just to join in as a guest with her mother. How could her husband have asked her to step up on stage? Hmph! Women's thermal undergarments? I'm not even familiar with them! How could I possibly present them? What's his idea? While pondering this, the crowd suddenly began chanting, "Ms. Zhang Yuping! Come on! Ms. Zhang Yuping! Come on!" With the growing calls, Ms. Zhang had no choice but to take the stage. Standing beside Gao Liang, she gave him a withering glance, as if to say, "Husband, what are you up to now?" Gao Liang immediately sensed her thoughts and, with gestures, pointed to her own body. Zhang Yuping is indeed a smart woman—she’s wearing a thermal undergarment all on her own! "Hurry up! Hurry up and tell us!" The audience was eager to hear. Zhang Yuping immediately smiled gracefully at everyone, politely removing her outerwear to reveal her perfectly fitted thermal undergarment. With light, confident strides, she showcased her exquisite beauty on the T-stage. The soft pink thermal silk undergarment fit her perfectly—her standard height of 165 cm shone beautifully, with the prominent white rabbit motif on her chest captivating all eyes. Her well-proportioned figure, curvaceous and slender, with a balanced figure, stood out even more under the elegant silk, making her look poised and radiant. Her striking figure sent many in the audience into a frenzy. Underwear showcase! What a stunning display! An elite beauty presenting a brand-new thermal undergarment line developed for the State Cotton Mill! Several journalists were on site, applauding with their thumbs raised. Yet one journalist remained skeptical, saying, "This isn't actually produced by the State Cotton Mill, is it?" But Gao Liang said, "Please take a close look!" At that moment, another beautiful woman appeared, wearing the same warm silk underwear as Zhang Yuping—wow, how stunning! Together, the two women captured everyone's attention. It was Chen Yuting, who had received a phone call from Gao Liang the day before and had rushed over; just as she arrived, it was her turn to make her appearance. The two women—one slim, the other slightly fuller—were simply eye-catching. Wearing the same silk underwear, Gao Liang wasn't idle either—he wore a men's silk warm underwear and joined Zhang Yuping and Chen Yuting on stage for a performance. The performance of one man and two women in silk underwear was truly impressive. The reporters noticed that all three of their undergarments featured the premium products from Hanshai City—the silk plush warm underwear. Gao Liang, Zhang Yuping, and Chen Yuting then danced a Latin dance, immediately captivating the entire audience with its international charm. While everyone was stretching their tongues to watch the dance, Gao Liang asked Zhang Yупing and Chen Yuting to hold up their lighters and roast their warm-keeping undergarments. To everyone's amazement, the undergarments not only remained undamaged but seemed completely unaffected.
