Chapter Eleven: Ordinary and Unsettled
1946 may have been an extraordinary year. The armistice agreement was destroyed. The Kuomintang and the Communist Party began to resolve differences with force, and the war was burning on the land of China again.
Meng Youtian didn't want to comment on this civil war. Since he was out of the way and had almost known the result, he had basically lost interest in this fight between the same room.
On the surface, after the struggle to arrive in Hong Kong, this year seemed very dull. Apart from adding a mechanical sand digging equipment to the sand digging company and purchasing a plastic molding production line in the middle of the year, there was no major move.
In the eyes of outsiders (maybe not many outsiders know about Meng Youtian), Meng Youtian is now in the middle class, even surpassing the middle class, and it is understandable to adopt conservative and stable strategies. However, no one knows that Meng Youtian has not been easy this year. Behind his conservative and stable efforts is his hard work, a volcano that is about to burst.
The plastic molding production line was placed in the newly built factory of the garment factory, and the brand of a newly registered toy company was also hung. After hiring operators and technical talents, this pitifully small toy factory took up most of Meng Youtian's time. Except for his family, no one knew what he was doing. Even employees of those toy factories expressed doubts about the toys made by Meng Youtian.
It doesn't matter, the truth is in the hands of a few people. If everyone knows that this method can make money, it will not be able to become a monetary. While guiding production, Meng Youtian purchased other supplies, and made various preparations to set out for the United States.
In mid-August, Meng Youtian built a workshop for the toy factory and seconded workers from the clothing factory to finalize the processing and transformation of the toys. A month later, the first batch of fifty toy dolls was finally announced.
The weird or ugly plastic dolls produced by the plastic factory are now presented to people in an amazing appearance. She has curved eyebrows, long eyelashes, big eyes, petite mouth, golden hair, and fit fashion.
Yes, this is a very fashionable adult doll toy. Her appearance is a bit like Ingrid Bergman, a bit like Rita Hays, a bit like Elizabeth Taylor, or a bit like... In short, it is beautiful. But it is not exactly the same as anyone. She has long legs and a slim body. Her "measures" size is 38-18-34, which is more prominent than the curve of Britney, who was used by a math teacher to take geometry classes.
"This will teach the children badly." Xiao Man took this surprising doll, and her first reaction was like this.
"I am worried about the world." Meng Youtian rolled his eyes and said, "This will be the idol of every girl. Who doesn't want to become such a beauty when she grows up?"
"Hey, this is our clothing logo." Zijuan kept noticing it. After careful inspection, she pointed to the doll's clothing with a little surprise and said: "Women's workwear, isn't this the product we launched in the first half of the year? And this seems to be the style to be launched next year."
"Yes, these sets of clothes are all styles that the clothing factory wants to produce." Meng Youtian pointed at the dolls proudly. "Look, it will be impressive to all the dragon logo. Remember our clothing brand and this style."
"It's a good idea, but can this doll be sold?" Zijuan frowned slightly with some doubts.
"It should be possible?" Meng Youtian didn't have much confidence at this time. After all, it had been launched for nearly ten years. Can people's tastes and thoughts be accepted now?
"Even if it can't be, this thing will make us rich in the future." Meng Youtian praised Haikou again in an instant, which also contained the meaning of comforting his relatives. "As long as you apply for a patent, it is a money tree, just wait for others to come and send money. So I have to go to the United States and leave in October, get familiar with the way first and make preparations in advance."
"Can't you let others go?" Zijuan was a little worried, and even more reluctant. "That Chen Jinyi has been with you for more than half a year, and he has American relatives. I think it's quite appropriate."
"He can't make decisions about some things, and he doesn't understand all my plans and ideas." Meng Youtian shook his head gently and said, "This is a great opportunity. If it succeeds, at least you can accumulate enough funds three or five years in advance, and you won't worry about anything you want to do in the future."
"Let's discuss with your family!" Zijuan shook her head gently, "How much money is a small matter, safety and stability are the first priority!"
Xiao Man opened her mouth at first, as if she wanted to persuade Meng Youtian, but her eyes turned, and she closed her mouth again, slightly pursed the corners of her lips, smiling, not knowing what idea was going on in her heart.
…………………
Meng Youtian was indeed facing great resistance when he was about to travel far. He said that it was thousands of miles away in the United States and left for half a year, and almost none of his family agreed.
Although being steady is Meng Youtian's business strategy, going to the United States is not a risky thing, and going to other countries is inevitable in the future. However, Meng Youtian's idea is not accepted by everyone. Of course, for people who have not traveled far away, the danger of crossing the ocean will obviously be overestimated, so it is understandable to be afraid.
In desperation, Meng Youtian had to speak out and persuade him one by one, repeatedly emphasized the safety of the journey, and sweared to say that he would stay at home only this time and never go anywhere.
After several days of persuasion and persuasion, the family reluctantly agreed to Meng Youtian's trip. However, Meng Youtian's idea of taking a plane was ruthlessly rejected. In everyone's opinion, the big ship is still reliable, and the things flying in the sky are not in decline, and it is really impossible to sit.
At that time, Hong Kong had air passenger services in 1936. Imperial Airlines provided planes from Penang to Hong Kong; Pan American Airlines traveled to San Francisco; Air France traveled to Indochina Peninsula; Chinese Airlines traveled to Guangzhou and Shanghai; Eurasian Airlines traveled to Beijing, etc.
However, the strong opposition from his family made Meng Youtian choose a sea passenger ship. Although it took a lot of time, it was not what Meng Youtian hoped for.
Everything was about to stop. Meng Youtian took two staff members to board the passenger ship to the United States. The ship rang out the whistle and left the port, slashing the waves and galloping towards the distance. It indicates that his career also rides the wind and waves, and is about to turn a new chapter. The result of both fame and fortune is obviously beyond the expectations of most people. Well, not only fame and fortune, but also a harvest that Meng Youtian did not expect is waiting for him.
