You will be impressed with what you find!
I have been to a dozen carbon factories. It would take a lot to impress me at this point. And, quite honestly, I don't get impressed by dog and pony shows anymore.
What does impress me is product with consistent quality, within spec, delivered on time, for the price agreed upon container after container.
Let me know when your Mainland 'friends' figure out how to do that.
