Chapter 301: President Election and Ambition

In the textile association, among all the individual positions, only the secretary general is full-time, and the rest of the president, vice president, and director are part-time.

In other words, the president decides the general direction of the development of the association, and the specific affairs are still done by the secretary-general, so this position in the association, the power should be second only to the president.

Even in some matters, the Secretary-General has greater authority than the President.

Now listening to Zhao Hongsheng's meaning on the phone, the secretary general of the Textile Association should have an official background, so of course he will support Wang Ye according to Zhao Hongsheng's intentions.

Wang Ye thought about it, he was not too familiar with the people in the association, except for the president Liu Shujie, the secretary general had met him once, and he was not very familiar with it.

The secretary general of the textile association is called Gu Qingshan, thirty-five or sixteen years old, a very shrewd and capable person, and he has a very good reputation in the association.

However, the chairman was lazy and never thought of doing any big activities, and the plan proposed by Gu Qingshan at the council several times was also rejected by Liu Shujie.

Liu Shujie's reason is very simple, that is, the Textile Association is a non-governmental organization, and peers gather together to communicate with each other, so there is no need to spend too much time and energy on things.

……

On August 28th, Pengcheng Textile Association was held in the International Banquet Hall of the Black Forest Hotel in OCT East.

This is also the 7th member congress of the association, at which the next president and vice president will be elected.

The term of office of each President and Vice-President is four years.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the members of the textile association began to rush to the hotel one after another, and the people who came were basically the bosses of various garment companies in Pengcheng, and a few professional managers came to attend the meeting as company representatives.

Liu Shujie also arrived, walked into the hotel lobby, and many people who knew him greeted him one after another.

"President Liu is here so early today. ”

"Lao Liu is going to be re-elected this year, I'll vote for you later. ”

Liu Shujie barely squeezed out a smile: "Hello everyone, let's go to the conference hall, there will be a meeting in a while." ”

Liu Shujie was in a very bad mood today, because yesterday, Secretary-General Gu Qingshan came to him for an interview and said something to him that made him not very pleasant.

To put it simply, I hope that Liu Shujie will not participate in the presidential election this year, he has served as the president for two terms, and he should give the opportunity to others.

Liu Shujie was not surprised that Gu Qingshan would say such a thing, he also knew Gu Qingshan's background, but there was no one in the association to compete for him for the position of president before, what happened this year?

He asked Gu Qingshan curiously: "It doesn't matter if I don't want to be the president or not, but I want to know, who wants this position?"

Gu Qingshan didn't hide it, and said frankly: "It's not who wants it, but wants to push Wang Ye up, because many people think that it is more suitable to let Wang Ye be the president of this association." ”

Hearing Gu Qingshan say Wang Ye, Liu Shujie suddenly realized, it turned out to be him!

are all people in the clothing industry, although Wang Ye is not familiar with Liu Shujie, but Liu Shujie knows Wang Ye too well.

In the past two years, Pengcheng's garment industry, or even the domestic garment industry, is the most powerful person in the limelight is Wang Ye!

First of all, he led Huashang International to go public, and the market value once rushed to the 100 billion mark! Then he created THE TOP SHOP, A DESIGNER COLLECTION STORE BRAND, TO CREATE THE MOST WELL-KNOWN HIGH-END BRAND IN CHINA.

Now there is another fast fashion brand, look at the momentum, this company is even more amazing, it won't be long before it is estimated that it will be a giant with sales of 100 billion yuan!

If Wang Ye wants to replace him as the president of the Textile Association, then Liu Shujie is really convinced.

He himself understands that there is no way to compare his strength with Wang Ye, the gap is too big.

However, although I have admitted defeat in my heart, I still inevitably feel unhappy.

Liu Shujie is also a face-loving person, everyone thinks that he will be re-elected as president, but now he wants to take the initiative to withdraw from the election, and he still feels a little unbearable on face.

But no matter what he thinks, the situation is stronger than people, as long as Gu Qingshan proposes Wang Ye to participate in the election as a candidate for president at this general meeting.

So whether it is Liu Shujie or anyone else, no one can compete with Wang Ye, because the strength of the three companies under Wang Ye is too strong.

This is the crushing of strength, your company is strong, then you can speak louder than others.

In industry associations, there is such an unspoken rule......

At ten o'clock, more than 500 members arrived, and of course there were a few people who did not come because of something.

It doesn't matter how few people are few, this kind of loose organization is not 100% present, as long as more than two-thirds of the people are present, the meeting can be officially opened.

The meeting was presided over by Secretary-General Gu Qingshan, who first welcomed all members to take time out of their busy schedules to participate in the association's conference.

Then go straight to the topic of the meeting, which is the election of the next president.

The election of the president of such an association may be nominated by the directors or self-recommended.

Of course, there are not many people who really recommend themselves, and even if they really want to run, they are looking for a familiar director to help recommend.

There are four people participating in the election this time, one of them is Liu Shujie, he is the former president, and he does not need to be recommended by himself or others, and he automatically has the qualification to be a candidate.

Before the official vote, each candidate should make a few short remarks, talk about his or her campaign speech, and also look forward to what he will do with the association if he is elected.

Liu Shujie held the microphone and said for a long time: "Everyone should know me, so you don't need to introduce yourself." ”

"I've been president of the association for two terms, so ...... Come to think of it, I won't run for election this time, and I'll give the opportunity to someone more suitable. I'm quitting!"

He said it very simply, very simply, and directly announced his withdrawal from the race.

There was a small uproar in the audience, but it was not a big deal, and everyone was just a little surprised.

In fact, there are many members who have long been dissatisfied with Liu Shujie, because he has been the president for so many years and has never helped the entire industry to do anything.

Under his leadership, the association has long existed in name only.

The second speaker was Wang Ye.

Wang Ye took the microphone and looked around the venue with a smile, some people below didn't know Wang Ye, and they were a little surprised to see that such a young person was also participating in the presidential election.

Of course, most people still know Wang Ye, and they are all people in the Pengcheng clothing circle, especially those who make women's clothing, how can they not have heard of Wang Ye's name.

"Hello everyone, I'm Wang Ye. Some people may not know my name, but let's talk about my company. Huashang, THE TOP SHOP, and Youxuan, these three brands are currently chaired by me. ”

When this sentence was spoken, no one below knew about it, and those who knew him immediately applauded enthusiastically to cheer him on.

Those who didn't know Wang Ye also suddenly realized that this was Wang Ye!

When the applause subsided, Wang Ye continued: "Pengcheng is a first-tier city, an international metropolis, and there are many excellent textile enterprises in this city. ”

"So as the leader of the industry, the Textile Association, I think it should play a greater role and lead the entire textile industry to glory. ”

"If I serve as the president of the Textile Association, then I plan to hold Pengcheng Fashion Week in Pengcheng at a fixed time every year, such as Paris Fashion Week, New York Fashion Week, London Fashion Week, Milan Fashion Week!"

This plan is a bit shocking to everyone present, Pengcheng will hold a fashion week?

Can it really be done?

But after everyone was shocked, think about it carefully, why can't it be done!

Several major foreign fashion weeks, they can be held, and there are many clothing companies in Pengcheng, why can't we do it.

Obviously, seeing everyone's concerns, Wang Ye said sonorously: "Anything, only by doing it first, can we have any hope of success! We have so many excellent garment enterprises in Pengcheng, why can't we run our own garment week!"

"I believe that as long as everyone works together and actively participates, then our Pengcheng Fashion Week will be better than the last, and it won't take too long to reach the level of the four major fashion weeks. ”

"At that time, it may not be called the four major international fashion weeks, but the five major fashion weeks!"

This ambition is a bit big, but as the president of an industry association, it is necessary to have such great ambition and courage in order to lead the entire industry to do better.

The hundreds of people present are all company bosses, and since they can make the company to a large scale, they are obviously all shrewd people.

Everyone knows how important it is for the entire industry to have such a capable and willing president as Wang Ye.

Wang Ye's ability has long been proven, and his influence is known to everyone, and now Wang Ye has shown his willingness to do things, what is there to hesitate about.

Someone in the audience immediately stood up and shouted: "Wang Dong, I support you, it is most suitable for you to be the president!"

Someone took the lead, and immediately a lot of people responded.

"Support Wang Dong!"

"It must be Wang Dong as the president, I don't accept the others!"

"Our association should have someone like Wang Dong to take the lead!"

……

Liu Shujie sat next to him, his face was blue and white, compared with Wang Ye, he himself felt that he had been incompetent in the past few years.

Although I don't know if this Pengcheng Fashion Week can do what Wang Ye said, it is better to do this than not to do it.

And when the time comes, Wang Ye will come forward to talk to the city, ask for venues, support and subsidies, maybe this matter can really be done.

With Wang Ye's Zhuyu in front, the other two candidates became foils, and one of them simply said that he quit and supported Wang Ye as president.

When the members voted, a total of 512 members participated in the voting, and 503 votes were for Wang Ye!

Wang Ye was officially elected president of Pengcheng Textile Association!
