Episode 8 recap: Song Yun Hui decided to develop a new project.
Afterward, Liang Fan, the cousin of Liang Si Shen, took the initiative to sit with Yang Xun and discuss work-related matters. He was also planning to lay off some factory workers for his foreign market. He intended to delegate some tasks to Yang Xun, who readily agreed. Liang Fan proposed a three-year timeline and prepared to sign a contract. However, during their discussion with Director Fei, it became apparent that Director Fei disagreed with their decision. But with Yang Xun's persuasive arguments, the factories in Donghai quickly agreed after reading the thank-you letters.
Meanwhile, Song Yun Hui went home alone. His family was happy to see him, but they felt a sense of loss knowing that he would leave again the next day. Similarly, when Cao, the workshop director, and his colleagues received the documents, they also felt disheartened. They prepared a delicious meal to treat Song Yun Hui in order to express their gratitude, but the people sitting at the table felt guilty for the closure of the factory. Nevertheless, they didn't blame Song Yun Hui and continued to comfort him, asking him not to bear any burden. After the meal, Cao specifically gave Song Yun Hui the important information from the factory and entrusted him with the crucial project.
While sitting in the car, Song Yun Hui put on his glasses and carefully studied the materials. Meanwhile, Cao called all the employees of the factory for a meeting to announce the unfortunate news of the factory's closure. When the employees realized what was happening, they immediately resisted. At this moment, Director Wang also felt heavy-hearted, but he had to comply with the government's requirements. He assured everyone present that they would be properly resettled in new jobs. Just as everyone was preparing to accept this reality, unexpectedly, Song Yun Hui returned, looking exhausted. He had good news in hand and was ready to try to prevent the closure of Pengyang factory.
Upon returning to Beijing, Song Yun Hui wasted no time in explaining his plan to apply for a transfer back. The people around him became angry upon hearing this, and they were unsure how to explain the situation to Guo Hao. However, Song Yun Hui, who had reconsidered the situation, was prepared to go alone and explain everything.
Afterwards, the people on the other side learned that Song Yun Hui and his team were researching the advanced topic of bamboo eucalyptus and expressed strong support for them to continue. However, the current problem they face is that the technical difficulty of this project is extremely high, and the issues encountered by the Pengyang factory have not been properly resolved. It remains uncertain whether they are capable of handling it.
Upon returning, the people around Song Yun Hui began to criticize them, believing that such a massive project could not be accomplished by their small factory alone. However, the person in front of them now has great confidence in what the leader said and is prepared to try with everyone else. They are determined not to turn back without hitting a wall and are ready to give themselves two years, with the assurance of providing a satisfactory response. Witnessing his unwavering determination, the people nearby left the scene in awe.
Subsequently, the decision from above came down, but Song Yun Hui, regardless of the consequences, chose the second option, the one he had developed himself, and expressed resolute no regrets.
