After the completion of the first cotton plant, the second cotton textile mill, which is twice as large as the No. 1 cotton plant, has completed the plant construction of the state-owned Beijing Second Cotton Textile Factory. The machine installation work went smoothly.

In the spring of 1955, the state-run Third Cotton Textile Factory was also under construction. This is the staff measuring the foundation of the plant.

On December 31, 1954, the new party member of the Beijing Guomian No. 1 Factory attended the oath of the party.

北京第一棉纺织厂的厂房是根据苏联先进经验建成，厂房四周有空气调节室，装有冷热风设备，使车间空气始终保持清洁，室内温度湿度正常。为保证工人的健康和安全，车间还有自动消防设备和滤尘设备。厂里的机器除纺机是从德意志民主共和国进口以外，其余的织布机都是郑州、上海等地纺织机械厂生产的最新式机器。

The workers in the six groups of the B-spinning workshop won the winning red flag in the labor competition. The picture shows that they discuss the production situation and existing problems on the day of the study after work to further improve production.

Old skilled workers are teaching young textile workers how to decorate textile parts.

At the same time as the production and construction of the National Cotton Factory, more than 20 three-story staff quarters have been built. These beautiful houses have become the new home of textile women workers.

In the past few decades, those young and capable textile women workers have long since retired and become grandmother-level figures.
