Chapter 867 Achievement of Goal
In order to achieve this goal, Qi Tongwei traveled around to communicate and cooperate with local government departments, enterprises and social organizations. His efforts have received widespread support and response. Many companies have expressed their willingness to provide financial and technical support for the training base, and government departments have also introduced a series of preferential policies to encourage the inheritance and development of traditional handicrafts.
With the joint efforts of everyone, traditional handicraft training bases have been established in poverty-stricken areas. Qi Tongwei personally went to the bases to teach the students and share his experience and insights. He also invited many well-known handicraft masters to come and give guidance to help the students improve their skills.
As the training base continues to grow and develop, more and more young people have mastered traditional handicraft skills. Their works are not only popular in the domestic market, but also exported overseas. Through their own efforts, these young people have not only escaped poverty and become rich, but also become the inheritors and promoters of traditional handicrafts.
During this process, Qi Tongwei also received many honors and praises. However, he always remained humble and low-key. He knew that these achievements were inseparable from the efforts of team members and the support of all sectors of society. He regarded these honors as a responsibility and a spur to motivate himself to keep moving forward.
On a sunny day, Qi Tongwei once again came to the traditional handicraft training base that was originally established. There have been earth-shaking changes here. The original simple venue has become a modern training center. Batches of students have graduated from here and are heading for a broader world.
Qi Tongwei looked at the scene in front of him with deep emotion. He knew that his fate was closely linked to public welfare and the inheritance of traditional handicrafts. The road ahead might still be full of challenges, but he would go on firmly, because he believed that as long as there were dreams and love in his heart, he would be able to create a better tomorrow.
At this time, a group of students gathered around, holding their carefully crafted handicrafts in their hands, their faces filled with confidence and pride. "Teacher Qi, this is a gift we prepared for you, thank you for your teaching and help all the time."
Qi Tongwei's eyes were slightly moist as he gently took the gift handed over by the trainees. It was an exquisite wooden sculpture that vividly depicted the appearance of the training base. Every detail was filled with the trainees' thoughts. "Thank you. I am really pleased to see you now." Qi Tongwei's voice was slightly choked with emotion.
At this moment, Qi Tongwei's cell phone suddenly rang. He glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. After hesitating for a moment, he answered the call. "Hello, is this Mr. Qi Tongwei?" A steady male voice came from the other end of the phone. "Yes, may I ask who you are?" Qi Tongwei asked in confusion. "I am Li Jianguo, the head of a large chain home furnishing company. I know about your outstanding contribution to the inheritance of traditional handicrafts, and I am very interested in your training base and the works of your students. I would like to discuss the possibility of cooperation with you." The other party's words were full of sincerity.
Qi Tongwei's heart was moved. This was undoubtedly a great opportunity to promote traditional handicrafts to a wider market. "Mr. Li, I'm glad to receive your call. I'm very willing to talk to you about cooperation." Qi Tongwei said excitedly. The two agreed on a time and place to meet. After hanging up the phone, Qi Tongwei told the students the news. Everyone cheered and was full of expectations for the future.
A few days later, Qi Tongwei came to the agreed meeting room. Li Jianguo had been waiting for a long time. After a few pleasantries, the two sides went straight to the point. Li Jianguo introduced the scale and market influence of his company in detail. He expressed his hope to purchase handicrafts made by students at Qi Tongwei's training base, integrate them into home furnishing products, and create a home furnishing series with traditional cultural characteristics.
"Mr. Qi, I believe that our cooperation will be a win-win situation. It will not only enhance the cultural connotation and added value of our home products, but also provide a broader market space for your students, allowing traditional handicrafts to truly enter thousands of households." Li Jianguo said confidently.
Qi Tongwei listened carefully and thought to himself. He knew that this was a rare opportunity, but he also faced many challenges. For example, how to ensure the quality of the products and the stability of supply, how to maintain the essence of traditional handicrafts in large-scale production, etc.
"Mr. Li, your proposal is very attractive. But we also need to consider some practical issues. Although our trainees have superb skills, our current production scale is still relatively small. It may take a certain amount of time and investment to meet the needs of your company." Qi Tongwei expressed his concerns frankly.
Li Jianguo nodded to show his understanding: "We can work together to solve these problems. I can provide some financial support to help you expand your production scale and train more craftsmen. At the same time, we can also jointly develop quality standards and production processes to ensure the quality of the products."
After in-depth discussions and negotiations, the two sides finally reached a preliminary cooperation intention. Qi Tongwei brought the cooperation agreement back to the training base. When the trainees heard the news, they were all excited. They all said that they would work hard to improve their skills and contribute their own strength to this cooperation.
In order to achieve cooperation with Li Jianguo's company, Qi Tongwei began to get busy. He first upgraded the teaching and production facilities of the training base, introduced some advanced equipment, and improved production efficiency. At the same time, he also recruited a group of young people with potential from the society to expand the team of trainees.
In terms of teaching, Qi Tongwei invited more traditional handicraft masters to teach at the training base to enrich the teaching content and methods. He also organized the trainees to conduct field visits and exchanges to learn from the excellent traditional handicraft experience of other regions and broaden their horizons.
As the cooperation project progresses, the number of orders from the training base gradually increases. Trainees are busy at their workbenches every day, carefully making handicrafts one after another. Although the work is hard, everyone's faces are filled with happy and proud smiles, because they know that they are working hard to inherit and promote traditional handicrafts.
However, the cooperation process was not always smooth. Once, a batch of products to be delivered had problems during quality inspection. The details of some handicrafts were not processed finely enough, and there was a certain gap between the quality standards agreed by both parties.
