On the 8 day, 8 o'clock, when the curtain of the Olympic Games in Beijing was in the wake of the "bird's nest", all the dignitaries, guests and other spectators, including International Olympic Committee President Jacques Rogge, President Bush, Russian Prime Minister Putin, International Olympic Committee honorary chairman Samaranch and Japanese Prime Minister Yasuo Fukuda, will receive an exquisite non-woven gift bag.

The production enterprise of this gift bag is a private enterprise in Suxi Town, Yiwu, Zhejiang.

Small businesses embrace Olympic Games

In the morning of August 7th, after watching the last gift of bags on the vehicle to Beijing, Yang John, general manager of the GAD bag factory in Yiwu, breathed a sigh of relief.

"I am very proud to be the exclusive supplier of gift bags for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games."

Yang John said that the GAD bag factory has provided 96 thousand gift bags for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games. The bags will also be loaded into the handheld props and other related materials of the audience. The rattle drum produced in Yiwu is also recommended.

Speaking of the experience of becoming a gift bag supplier for the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games, Yang Yuehan, who came to Yiwu from Cangnan in Wenzhou two years ago, thought it was a "fate".

He said that after receiving the news of the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee and the Beijing Olympic Games opening and closing ceremony operation center ordering the gift bags to the national enterprises, they contacted with the officials of the operation center on the recommendation of their friends.

After two visits to Yiwu, the center of operations and related agencies eventually signed an agreement on the production of Olympic products with GAD bag factory on the evening of July 26th.

Little gift bags add color to Olympic Games

In the GAD bag factory, this gift bag with a size of 40cm * 50cm is simple, generous, beautiful and environment-friendly. Both sides of the bag are printed with "one world, one dream" and the Chinese and English counterparts in the opening ceremony of the twenty-ninth Olympic Games. The handle is red, and the Beijing Olympic logo is attached to the zipper head.

The upper part of the bag is the "Xiangyun" pattern on the top of the bag. The lower part is "China Red". The overall color of the bag matches the clothes of the Olympic torch bearer and the Chinese sportsmen sportsman.

"Because gift bags are used by leaders and guests, products represent the image of the country and are quite strict."

Yang John said, in the final product stereotype can be described as a lot of trouble.

At first, Beijing wanted to make canvas bags, but canvas bags were difficult to achieve the design intent, and could not well reflect the level of Xiangyun, and then converted to non-woven fabrics. The original manual printing and dyeing methods did not work well, and the enterprises spent more than 10 yuan on printing and dyeing machines. After several modifications, the pattern was finally set.

No money, but the most meaningful.

"From the receipt of this list more than 10 days ago, I didn't sleep in peace. I worked overtime with management and front-line workers in the factory every day."

Yang John rubbed his red eyes and said that there were only more than 200 people in the enterprise. 96 thousand gifts bags could be produced within ten days, and the workload could be imagined.

During the interview, the staff of GAD bag factory said they would give up the rest time for the Olympic Games, and they would be tired again.

It is worth it.

Ye Lanlan, a flat car worker from Jingdezhen, Jiangxi, said: "since August 1st, we have volunteered to work overtime.

For the Olympic Games, hard work does not matter.

"In order to catch up with the Olympic task, many foreign trade lists have been removed from the factory.

Moreover, the market price of this kind of bag is at least five or six yuan per cost, but we only receive more than four yuan for Olympic orders.

Although this business is not profitable, it is most meaningful. "

Yang John's tired face burst into a happy smile.
