Masks for expensive resumption
Zhang Weijie is the chairman of Gangchang Shoes Industry, and has experienced many twists and turns on the way back to work. He said that the production of leather shoes is divided into quarters. At the beginning of February, he wanted to apply for resumption of work to catch up with the deadline. However, the local government's higher requirements for resumption of work caused him a lot of thought.
The government ’s request made Zhang Weijie a headache. At that time, mask manufacturers in the Mainland were unable to put into production because of the Lunar New Year holiday, but the demand for masks across the country and even the world increased sharply in just a few days. Masks immediately became tight supplies, everywhere Not found. He recalled that the local government required that the factory resume work must be equipped with 2 medical masks per day for employees. At that time, he was spreading from the mainland and overseas. Finally, he used the first 10 days to barely start working. "At that time, it was four or five yuan. May not be available. "

Traffic control, poor transportation, raw materials stagnation

At that time, traffic control throughout the country ... until March 1 Come back to work early. "
As of the beginning of March, a few days after the factory started, the second wave of outbreaks broke out overseas. The overseas customers of the shoe factory not only did not place new orders, but also demanded that the products already produced should be delayed. Zhang Weijie complained, "The new orders are almost They are all stopped, and the unfinished business is not lived. 80% of the business is ok, and the loss is nearly ten million! "
Zhang Weijie said that the epidemic has hit Hong Kong businessmen the most. From the initial request for construction to the current order, many have suffered great losses. At present, the factory can only make orders that have not been completed earlier, or domestic orders for domestic sales. He said that if the epidemic continues, there are no new orders, it is very likely to arrange for employees to take a holiday.

The picture shows February 20, located in a company in Nansha District, Guangzhou. The resume workers wear masks and work orderly in the production workshop. (China News Agency)
