Chapter 847
There must be some reason, right?
Chapter 847 There must be some reason, right?
Lou Zhe noticed her hesitation, a confident smile curving his lips. He pulled the notebook from under his arm, quickly flipped to a page filled with densely packed English document summaries engraved on a steel plate and hand-drawn machine sketches.
“In the institute’s archives, I found several photocopies of textile journals from East Germany and Japan.” Lou Zhe pointed to a machine on a drawing: “Why do their acrylic fabrics look so crisp and pill-resistant? It’s not because the fiber is good, but because they have two extra processing steps…”
He paused, watching Lu Qiaoge's increasingly focused expression, knowing that the hook had taken hold:
"Director Lu, our current sweater factory doesn't necessarily have to use pure wool yarn. If a laboratory could develop a solution, do you think it would be helpful for the sweater factory you're planning to set up?"
Lu Qiaoge: "..."
That would definitely be helpful.
Because she already had this idea in mind.
She visited the Fifth Textile Factory, which was large in scale and had excellent equipment. After the renovation, many workers were able to stay. Although Lu Qiaoge said that she could sell as much as the factory produced, the renovation was still mainly focused on Jiangcheng.
Then, after the renovation, the old problem resurfaced: there might be a shortage of raw materials.
However, if the yarn Lou Zhe mentioned is successful, it could actually replace some wool products.
Just as she thought, it doesn't necessarily have to be 100% wool; 70%, or even 30%, would be fine.
Now it's been seven or eight years, and it's no exaggeration to say that because of her "Sunshine Brand Instant Noodles," or rather because of Lu Qiaoge, the country's progress in some areas has indeed accelerated considerably.
Because she is a ready-made example, not to mention how many detours she can avoid, her outstanding achievements are obvious to everyone.
There's no need to bother researching, learning, or drawing inspiration from it; you can just copy it directly.
Therefore, if the Fifth Textile Factory really wanted to transform, it should transform completely and focus on making wool sweaters and other wool products.
For example, they can also produce woolen overcoats.
Even if they don't produce woolen coats, so many workers can become garment workers after passing the assessment.
Although pure wool may seem high-end, if it's really as Lou Zhe said, it could appeal to some low-end markets.
Lu Qiaoge took a deep breath of the cold air and looked at Lou Zhe with a heavy gaze.
Lou Zhe also looked at her with a smile.
Lu Qiaoge asked, "How long will it take?"
Lou Zhe was secretly delighted: "It will take at most three months, or at least next month to see results."
Lu Qiaoge asked bluntly, "Professor Lou, why?"
Lou Zhe paused for a moment, then realized what he meant and said, "For no reason."
"There must be some reason, right?"
Lou Zhe's face showed a hint of displeasure, but it quickly disappeared.
He said calmly, "First of all, I contacted you first because we are on the same campus. As for why, you could say that I don't want my research results to fall into the hands of an incompetent person. I hope it can be put to greater use. In addition, I also hope that our laboratory can receive support from Director Lu."
Lu Qiaoge stopped asking questions and instead put on a smiling face, saying, "Then I thank Professor Lou."
Lou Zhe frowned: "You haven't said whether you agree or not yet."
Lu Qiaoge: "...I can't make the decision on my own. We don't have a one-man show these days. I need to report to our leaders whether this matter can be decided. If you have no problem, then I will be quick on my end and won't keep Professor Lou waiting too long."
This wasn't a refusal, and Lou Zhe didn't press the matter further.
But what he just said is also true.
The commercialization of scientific research results involves many issues, and its effectiveness depends on who is implementing it. Lou Zhe used to be an implementer of planned research projects, but starting this year, he has gained some autonomy.
To say that this matter has nothing to do with Lu Qiaoge is not entirely true; he really wanted to get to know Lu Qiaoge.
I don't want to do anything; I just want to get to know women like that.
The main reason is that Lu Qiaoge is different from others.
It would be such a shame if we didn't know each other.
As for what the outcome would be after they got to know each other, he didn't think about it, since the future is always unpredictable.
But now that he's taken the first step, he said, "I'll wait for your good news."
Lu Qiaoge corrected him: "That's not right. You can't say wait for my good news. Even if the leaders agree in the meeting, it won't be me who handles this. Do you understand what I mean?"
At this point, Lu Qiaoge continued, "At most, I will report to the leaders. Of course, there will definitely be opinions and ideas involved. After summarizing them, I will still need to report to the higher-ups for approval. However, I can assure you of one thing: as long as the leaders agree, whether it is the transformation of the results or investment, you will not be disappointed."
Lou Zhe then smiled.
Lu Qiaoge wasn't just giving Lou Zhe a perfunctory answer; she genuinely took this matter to heart.
Regardless of Lou Zhe's motives for approaching her, this achievement is beneficial to the country and its people. If it is managed well, the benefits, both in the short and long term, are unimaginable.
Lu Qiaoge and Feng Zihan have already made an agreement.
When Lu Qiaoge arrived at the small apartment, she was surprised to find Feng Zihan's older brother standing at the door.
At this moment, her clear eyes were filled with anticipation.
They clasped their hands together and twisted them, looking like they wanted to say something but didn't dare to.
Lu Qiaoge smiled and said, "Just tell me what you want to say."
He's still a child.
It's quite pitiful. Chairman Feng has been here for so long, and he hasn't even taken him out for a walk, let alone had a meal together.
It seems they only met once and didn't say much.
Perhaps in his eyes, Feng Shaoqing was just a fool, what was there to say?
But in truth, Feng Shaoqing understood everything.
On the day Chairman Feng left, she came here to see Feng Zihan that night. Feng Zihan didn't care, but Feng Shaoqing said to her, "Dad doesn't like me. He thinks I'm stupid and ashamed, but I think I'm very lucky. If someone as stupid as me had been born into a poor family, I wouldn't have survived until now. I think it's pretty good as it is now."
He was genuinely happy when he said that.
Therefore, Lu Qiaoge felt that Feng Shaoqing's situation was truly a waste of time.
They also took him to see Old Master Sun, who said that Feng Shaoqing's situation was not static.
Fortunately, his family was well-off and could provide him with a comfortable life.
It's definitely incurable, but it will grow little by little, just at a slower pace.
Perhaps by the time they reach their sixties, they can achieve the intellectual capacity of an eight or nine-year-old child?
It's hard to say; it depends on what he encounters in the future.
