Well after the chaos of 600 flights being postponed at Beijing yesterday I finally got to Liuyang in China via another 2 hour flight to Changsha airport.
Liuyang is the firework manufacturing capital of the world. It has literally 1000s of firework factories scattered all around the Hunan countryside.
It is now 945am and we’ve just had a late breakfast before we start a days work looking at the various firework effects and new ideas. We are proud to be associated with the very best factories in China and have great working relationships with our partners here.
Several new ideas are being worked on, some of which are not even of an explosive nature.
Today is much warmer than I have experienced recently. Minus 5 in sunny England to minus 13 in Beijing yesterday. I believe it is around 9 degrees here but I am sure it’s still colder than that.
Update – 1045am and we’re driving to the factory that produce MLEs aerial shells. Later we shall we checking out some new effects and in between grab some lunch. Meals are very important to the Chinese business culture.
More soon…
