The Weight of a Suit
After five years working for his boss, driver Zhou Cheng receives not his wages, but an ill-fitting suit and a garment factory that has ground to a halt. The boss has disappeared, creditors are blocking the entrance, and the deadline for delivering 800 sets of work uniforms is looming over him. Zhou Cheng neither runs away nor shirks his responsibilities. He delivers whatever orders he can, acknowledges every debt he owes, and lays every transaction out on the table to calculate it clearly. The veteran workers' craftsmanship is respected once again, and everyone who puts in the work gets paid in cash that very day. When the boss returns with his so-called 'good news,' Zhou Cheng finally understands that what keeps a factory standing is not a prestigious title, but a promise that is honored once spoken. He takes off the oversized suit and joins forces with his coworkers to establish a small workshop, writing the rules into its charter and sharing the profits with the people who do the work.
