Looking For Labor Models, Old Shoe Makers, And Old Friends.

Whenever you see the black leather shoes at your feet, Mr. Wang Yunqi can't help thinking of his maker, the old shoe master of Tianjin shoe factory.

"I have never worn such comfortable shoes again."

Uncle Wang, more than 70, pointed to a pair of square shoes at his feet, saying that this was made by Si Baotong in 90s of last century, and he has been wearing it for more than 10 years.

Uncle Wang said that Shifu master was a model worker in Tianjin in the 60s and 70s of last century, and the most famous shoemaker in Tianjin leather shoes factory. "Newspapers and radio often heard from him that year, and they all called on him to learn from him."

In the early 90s of last century, Shifu master opened a leather shoes store in Fengcheng District, Hongqiao, which made leather shoes for the elderly and the special type of the feet. "The old man's mind is very good. People who are handicapped or living in difficulty often do not charge, or they charge less."

Uncle Wang met with Shifu master at that time.

At that time, Shifu's leather shoes shop was very famous in Tianjin. Uncle Wang set a very good leather shoes here. After several years, he was a customer here. "I often go to him when I throw my temper and do not book shoes."

Around 2000, Shifu moved and left a new contact telephone for Uncle Wang before he left. He was invited to have an unprecedented visit.

In this way, the two old men broke off their contacts. "I asked his old neighbor, and I asked several of those customers, not his new number."

Uncle Wang hoped to find his master through the help. "If he is in good health, he can help me make a pair of shoes."
