In section three of country driving, Hessler takes a different path across China than he had in his first two journeys. He states that in his first trip he went west, in search of history following the great wall as in snaked across Chinese mountains and plains. On his second trip he headed north in search of a connection to a simpler agrarian lifestyle that has been quickly disappearing from Chinese culture over the past several decades.But in section three “The Factory” Hessler points sets his sights south bound in search of the future in the industrial coastal regions. The most interesting thing that i felt occurred in the first third of this section was the account on the industrial towns that only produced one product. There was a town that produced only playground equipment, one that made buttons for clothing and another that made neckties. This idea of one town making only one main product seemed very strange to me at fist until I realized that this occurs in the United States as well only with sometimes less obscure products(Automobiles in Detroit). The main story transitioned to a man starting a factory that will produce bra rings and the immense technology necessary to produce such a simple product is quite remarkable. China is a land of manufacturing and its economy revolves around providing cheap products to western powers. These items can sometimes seem so insignificant to the average American that the fact that entire towns revolve around there production can be mind boggling. However with enough start up capital and the right timing there is quite a bit of money to be made in the obscurest of products in mainland China.
