17. Sister Zhang, Servant Street
"Chen Indi?yo, you kid, I haven't been in touch for a long time, how is it lately?" With a bang, the phone was picked up, and a loud voice laughed and greeted, "-I heard that your factory was planted a few days ago, how is it now? β
"It's okay recently, the factory has already done it, but I asked a friend to make a few phone calls, and I will definitely have to organize a bureau another day. Thank you Brother Hong for your concern. On the other end of the phone, Chen Indi's chuckle came, and his tone was relaxed.
"Oh? It's done?" Brother Hong's eyes shrank: I heard that this time it was the Environmental Protection Bureau, and I thought that Chen Di was entrusted to him: Hongbo clothing is developed from the old foundation of the third garment factory in N City, and it is also one of the few large factories in N City that has several large production lines and does not need outsourcing processes, so it must be indispensable to make a big deal with the Environmental Protection Bureau, "This ...... Congratulations, congratulations, which friend, bring me with you when you form a game. β
"That's for sure," Chen Di was still smiling, "Brother Hong must appreciate his face when the time comesβspeaking of which, Brother Hong, I called today to ask about your factory's production plan for the second half of the year, how is the contract signed, and is it at full capacity?"
"Well, it's good to have a 70% full load. Brother Hong was not angry, "What, do you have a job? Let's say okay first, small Japan's order, unless it comes with its own copy, I won't do it - you know my rules, a single piece less than 2000 pieces will not be accepted, just small Japan's single quantity and quality control, unless it is Uniqlo, otherwise I won't do it!"
"Of course," Chen Di cleverly praised him, "You are all manufacturers who cooperate with Meters, those small orders in Japan, they are for others to eat, how can we Brother Hong look at it?"
Don't look at the depth of the Japanese list, but in the whole N city, it is just a small cake, the real big factories, do not bother to cooperate with Japanese brands at all, and even the European and American brands such as Prada are not popular, what orders do the highest and largest clothing factories have to do?Meters.Bonwe, H&M, Baleno...... The simpler the process, the more patterned the quality inspection, the larger the order quantity, and the larger the scale of the enterprise, the more popular it is, and it is Brother Hong's pride to grab a part of the list outsourced by Meters, he was praised and laughed heroically, "Just count what brand you can talk ββto, how many pieces, is it the shirt you have been tossing recently? If you can do it, I will take it away for you." β
"Brother Hong still understands me," Chen Di kept laughing, and the ease with which he showed between advance and retreat always made Brother Hong a little secretly envious - but today he was so free that he felt a little wrong: as if he had just been taught. "It's that shirt, our small factory really can't do it, there are about more than 5,000 pieces of the list, just wash it, don't sew the neck mark, see if you can make it, Brother Hong." β
Brother Hong said that 2000 is just a lower limit, and the actual list of 2000 is a small order in Hongbo, and the number of 5,000 can attract his attention - he sat up straight, and also restrained his grin-hip-hop tone, and no longer regarded Chen Indigo as a mixed elementary school classmate, "Does the washing belt carry a trademark?"
"No, it is written in the contract that the customer nails the mark himself. Chen Di comprehended, "I know that you are a big factory, and I will not embarrass you if you pay attention to this." β
"- Okay, that's fine. Brother Hong pondered for a moment, "Then you send me the craft book another day, and I will arrange the production - how long is the delivery time?"
"Next month," Chen Di said, "Brother, I have to sign a contract for this batch of goods - I am also a pimp, the boss has someone else, and the other party is short of a big factory - I dug my heart and lungs to tell you that she can earn 10 million or 20 million yuan for this shirt alone this year...... The output is very large, before they were done in Zhejiang, where they could not find a large factory, they had to place separate orders, the boss was inconvenient, and wanted a single out, so I would contact you - this single you use more snacks, if the cooperation is pleasant, maybe it can also develop into a long-term customer. β
said that he couldn't look down on Xiaodan, but in fact, Brother Hong still knew the trends of the clothing industry in N City, otherwise he would know the shirt that Chen Indigo was making? Hearing Chen Indigo's revelation, his heart moved: Chen Indigo is not a person who likes to brag, one or two million, this number may not really have much moisture, and it is about the same as what they calculated.
Some peers have said before that this white shirt may be behind someone shipping a big shipment, otherwise it will explode like this, and the small factories should have already received a copycat order, because someone has shipped a lot of goods to meet the market demand, there are few copycat orders on the garment factory's side, and there are only a few of them, and there is a big gap between the mountain and the explosion...... No matter how this boss got the original craft book, now that this brand has exploded, according to the convention, the single product can always explode again, which means that the next endless stream of large orders and original craft books: take orders to make a profit, when the time is ripe to do your own copy, find a wholesaler to ship another ...... These stakes are like a formula in Brother Hong's heart, pulling out the Excel sheet every minute, he sat up straight, and his tone towards Chen Di became more affectionate, "Okay, you, I think about you Brother Hong, count me as owing you once-I can't let you fall short, when the delivery is over, you come to my house, don't you come to know?"
This is to give a tap, and it is also a rule, Chen India Yile, "No, Brother Hong, take care of my father's small factory more in the future, isn't it better than anything else?" Speaking of which, I really have something to ask you - do you know who is behind the accident in our factory this time?"
"Who?" Brother Hong has already understood that eight or nine points ,ββ can take down the original factory with the prefix of the country, how to do it if it doesn't matter at home, he is knowingly asking, but he is also relieved: this person is not afraid of repaying this love debt, Chen Indigo really has to find him to do this matter is the most suitable.
"It's Sister Zhang, who often runs Lao Liu and Lao Huang's factories, and I heard that she is a bit related to a section chief of the Environmental Protection Bureau. Brother Hong, they all say that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, I am good at doing my goods, I didn't recruit her or provoke her, she ran to N City to spread wilderness as a foreigner, I can't swallow this breath......"
#
'Snort', Porsche stopped at the door of the factory, and a few BMWs, Mercedes-Benz parked together, Sister Zhang helped the sunglasses, got out of the car in a very grand style, and happened to collide with her peers, "Xiao Li, such a coincidence, I also came to see the goods today." β
The wholesalers of the running factory are showing off their wealth, and the famous cars and bags are just the threshold - the manufacturers all favor the powerful big merchants, the richer the road, the more you can get a good model, Xiao Li's lady is more than Sister Zhang, and she also hugged a teddy with ingenuity in her hand, she snapped up the birdcage umbrella and shook a fancy gift in her hand, "What a coincidence, I went to Japan some time ago, and I met Sister Zhang when I came back, fate." β
The proprietress of this factory likes to take advantage of small advantages, and she is a foodie, usually Sister Zhang does not take some local specialties to play a relationship, but on the forced grid, in 07 how can not compare to the Japanese letter, Sister Zhang stared at the reflective wrapping paper in the sun, and felt depressed: Today is really not going well, this batch of good goods released today, Xiao Li will definitely be able to take the lead.
No matter how depressed Sister Zhang is, she can only walk in with Xiao Li, and halfway through, her mobile phone rang, Sister Zhang took it out and took a look, and suddenly it was cloudy and clear: A Q.Q she had been waiting for recently finally sent her a message.
[A 200,000 yuan, can you really be sure?]
Sister Zhang usually types slowly, but in fact, she is not inflexible, mainly because she is often multitasking, and can only find time to return between socializing with her boss. Today-she looked at the proprietress who was holding a box of white lovers and chatting speculatively with Xiao Li, so she simply stood back in the corner and took the initiative to give Xiao Li the space to play - this sycophant, you shoot it, I don't need it. [I'll send it to you!]
[If it's 200,000, it's not impossible to cut the queue......] Coco Demon's tone was still a little hesitant, [But...... I don't think it's good to show you other people's money...... After all, this is also a trade secret......]
This little girl is quite responsible, and Sister Zhang couldn't help nodding when she looked at it: If the Coco demon agreed to her request without hesitation, she would have to pay attention to her. People are so strange, she is bullying the Coco demon who is not deeply involved in the world - a little girl who has not graduated from college, looking at the post and still doing an internship, how do you know the business opportunities contained in this?ββ use her innocence and greed to make profits for herself, but paradoxically hope that the Coco demon is not so greedy and can make her feel more at ease in cooperation.
[What's the matter!] It's rare for her to type a few more words, and she is impatient to see that the Coco demon is still struggling. [Give me the account number!]
γβ¦β¦γ
[My Alipay is ......]
[But after giving the money, if you regret it, the deposit will not be refunded!]
Sister Zhang has been carrying a laptop with her, which makes her shoulders a little high and low due to long-term weight, but this is all valuable, she turned on the computer, plugged in the 3G network card, and directly transferred 200,000 to the Coco demon. [Is it sincere enough!!]
[Enough is enough......]
[You don't need to use an exclamation ......point all the time] Coco Demon seemed to be speechless as she was shocked by her domineering, and said weakly after a while, [Then I'll put you first, but if you can't send the clothes in time, the posting order will also be lower.] Someone has already sent me clothes, although it's just one.]
[Yes!] Sister Zhang typed, waited for three seconds and asked, [Which one?]
[Do you want to say the name too?] Coco Demon has a lot of concerns, [Forget it, when the time comes, wait for the post to come out, won't you know?]
[However...... The clothes will show you. I actually only have one item on hand now, and other families are still picking out money, but they have booked a time. γ
[If you go in order, it should have been the one that came first, but now there seems to be something wrong with that one, and I don't know what it is, the manufacturer they cooperate with seems to have an accident, so I don't know if it can be shipped as scheduled, and I told me to postpone it for a few weeks...... So, if you send me the clothes now, in three weeks, you can be in first place. γ
Coco Demon seemed to be a little afraid that she would be angry, and while refusing her request, he gave candy to eat, and let her rank first, and showed her a few photos, all of which were photos of clothes taken on white sheets, and you can see the two T-shirts spread on them, both of which are similar in style, slim and long, with a simple design and two pockets on the chest. Sister Zhang enlarged the photo and found the logo on the neck mark very lightly.
Alexander King again!
There is a problem in the factory, and it needs to be postponed...... Alexander Wang, these points are added together, if Sister Zhang can't guess who this merchant is, don't mix it up, she couldn't help but let out a low sneer, and then came to her senses, and closed the laptop in the curious eyes of the proprietress and Xiao Li, "Haha, I'm sorry, other customers have something to do, I have to go online to deal with it......"
Rejoining the routine sycophant link before getting the goods, she saw the stitches, switched to the mobile phone, and put a few words on the Coco demon: Brother Qing said that it would be postponed for three weeks, what does it mean? His factory is sealed, is he looking for a new manufacturer to place an order? Now it is in full swing, right?
It seems that a lesson is not enough, this kid is still a little more frustrated and brave...... Sister Zhang glanced at the proprietress a few times, and made a decisive decision in a blink of an eye: Brother Qing, this kid, is too dangerous, and he must not be allowed to rise. He is a native of N City, with a wider network than her, and he could only do retail because he couldn't eat the funds in his hand before, but now he has made a fortune, if he can't lose his surplus, he will rise in a blink of an eye. He can deliver the goods himself, and he knows almost all of her retailers, where will she find food then?
[This dress, have you finished taking the photo?] From the naked eye, the process of this dress is very simple, and it should not be difficult to reproduce it - Sister Zhang doesn't know that the fabric may not be perfect, but she doesn't care very much, and the biggest profit margin is not a 100% similar high imitation version, [If you finish shooting, send it to me, and I'll buy a new one for you!]
[Ah...... This ......] Coco Demon has no idea what she wants to do, of course she is very confused, Sister Zhang asked again and again, and she reluctantly agreed, [Then you give me the address......]
Sister Zhang sent her address in N City, [Send it today! Send SF Express to pay! This is the fastest!]
Get the Coco Demon [Good...... Then I'll send a ......] reply right away, as soon as she closed her phone, she turned around and hugged the boss's shoulder, "Honey, I have an order here, it's quite large, let's talk about it alone......"
People who do business, make a decision immediately, fight for speed and determination, Sister Zhang's first order is 5,000, and it is specified that it will be shipped in a week: Chen Indigo made a shirt order, and he has money in his hand, but it is impossible to bloom in multiple lines, he must first make a high-imitation version and hang it in his store for retail, and use the profits of the high-imitation version to drive the low-end version. Therefore, the production order must also be the high-end version - the low-end version, this time the shirt is like this, and many channel providers of the low-end version are shipping in advance by paying a deposit -
What if at this time, there is a large number of low-end spot in the market?
What if the price is so cheap that they have no reason to choose Chen's version?
This order, Sister Zhang didn't plan to make money, she just wanted to fight this time difference and price war with Chen Indigo, so that the low-end version of his factory was rotten in his hands, and he could only make money from the high-end version - it couldn't be as simple as making money like a shirt, she had eighteen means to serve in the future, and she wouldn't stop if she didn't dispel his ambitions. Otherwise, the rest of the low-end distribution and retail, don't all have to follow the same example, ready to move? That Lin Xiaofang, don't say anything, her eyes have long been lively, and then she has to set up with Coco demons, has Xiaoxiang's family looked for her again, which one is showing, and is it the goods in her hands......
She placed an urgent order, although the proprietress was excited, but also a little embarrassed, Sister Zhang paid half of the deposit on the spot, and went to see the fabric - the high imitation version has to wait for the ready-to-wear to make a comparison, but she does low-profile, how to purchase fabrics has her own experience, to the ready-to-wear just to pick up the version - this is to book a pattern maker, this whole day, Sister Zhang's Porsche drove around in N City, whistling all the way to smoke and dust, and only returned to the community she rented at night, found a parking space, and walked to her own row of buildings.
The community where she lives is far from being as glamorous as the vehicle, the property is not good, the street lights are often broken, Sister Zhang walked closer to see that there were a few men standing at the door of the building, she didn't care much, she was about to enter the corridor, but one of them stood up.
"Sister Zhang?" he said in a low voice.
"Huh?" she instinctively responded, but almost immediately, her hair stood on end, and she realized her mistake.
What happened next is more or less logical - even Sister Zhang herself expected it: she was beaten.
The other party's hand was not very heavy, very measured, she was beaten with a blue nose and swollen face, and the thick part of the flesh was kicked, but there was no fracture, it was very painful, and the hospital could not open a minor injury identification, "You are only a slight injury." β
The police also recognized, "It's just a slight injury, you don't have a broken bone, no permanent damage, it's just that you were beaten a few times, even if you find someone, you can't be prosecuted, at most you will be detained for two or three days, street fighting, what else can you do?"
Sister Zhang stared at half of the blue and purple panda eyes, just looking at him like that, the police were very arrogant, let her go and see, what he said was the truth, legal and compliant, so he was very confident. "You also have to think about whether you have offended anyone, and it is a veteran who started it. β
He was meaningful, "Can you stand it like this for two meals in three days?
Sister Zhang has been in the society for so many years, of course she knows that she can't reason with her father-in-law, and she knows even more that when she talks to her father-in-law, she must listen to her voice when she is obedient - the people at the police station are all local snakes, so they don't know how many ruffians and hooligans there are in their jurisdiction? He said that he was a veteran, then he must be a veteran, and he said that he would come twice in three days, so he would ......
Sister Zhang, who didn't say it, also heard it: The police station must have been spotted. Otherwise, it is impossible for the attitude of handling cases to be so passive.
She came out of the police station, covering her face and being dazed, and it took a long time for her to remember to call her old friend, and the phone rang dozens of times before she picked it up.
"You're still calling me!?" The voice over there was panicked and angry, "Do you know who you have provoked, Zhang Manli, do you know who called to ask about that Chen Indigo......'s factory?
Before he finished speaking, Sister Zhang hung up the phone, not only because this person would not be able to use it in the future, but also because she saw several more men who followed her from behindβthis was right next to the police station!
She didn't dare to go forward, so she stood at the gate of the compound of the police station, as if she had received an electric shock, and this cognition came up from the soles of her feet a little numb: N City, I really can't stay.
How did Chen Indigo ...... How- how did he ......
She didn't have the anger of being bullied in her heart, she had been out for so long, Sister Zhang would not have been wronged because of this kind of thing, it was she who crossed the line first, and others retaliated with a tooth for a tooth, and it would not look good for her to shout injustice again - besides, no one wanted to see it, she just didn't understand: Chen Indi's family, when did he have such a solid and black-and-white relationship? What retailer does he have such a relationship? What retailer does he do? What small factory does he open? He should have made a fortune and become bigger!
She resents this and resents this, and she can't figure it out: what is there that she hasn't calculated? Is it that her IQ can't take care of? She can suffer a loss, she can retreat, but she can't accept that her brain is not good, and she can't accept that she can't understand where she is planted this time......
"Hey, you can't go or not, why are you stunned here!" The person who looked at the gate was not happy, and the probe shouted, "It's okay to go quickly, it's in the way!"
Sister Zhang came back to her senses as soon as she saw the figures in the distance, touched the tender wounds on her face, trembled in pain, lowered her head, and walked quickly to the side of the road......
That night, a Porsche drove out of N City with large bags and small bags, and Sister Zhang left her 5,000 pieces of contract that had already paid half of the processing fee, hundreds of rolls of cotton with the delivery address written on it, and left N City all night, a city that she will never forget......
#
"This city that she will never forget?" Qiao Yun complained, "Please, Murong Xuecun has seen too much, do you want to come to it, N City, please forget me tonight?"
She changed her posture, tilted her head sideways and sharpened her pencil while talking on the phone, "However, I have to say that you know that Brother Hong is really soft-hearted, and he actually let people go like this." β
"Isn't that enough?" Chen Indigo's voice still had a little cold aftertaste, "I feel a little ruthless...... It's like that, and it's weird to watch. β
It's not that he became a β‘β‘ monument workshop, Brother Qing's condition for Brother Hong was to let Sister Zhang leave N City, and he didn't say how to go - for Brother Hong, this is a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning, and it is easy to handle it, he doesn't think that this matter is enough to exempt Brother Qing from the commission in this list, "A foreigner, all bullied the head of the brothers in the hometown, don't give some color to see if she wants to go to heaven?"
"Hehe, you can ask her yourself how she wants to go, I promise you, she will definitely choose this way of walking. Qiao Yun poured the sawdust into the trash can, "How much has she made in N City in the past few years? Tens of millions, right? She said that the money for making clothes is on the goods, she is doing so well, most of the inventory is passed on to you, and she has three or four million cash in her hand, right? How much money can she have to stay in N City now? Cloth plus deposit, only five or six hundred thousand, and she took away more than three million, she is not satisfied? If I am Brother Hong, find a few friends, and tell the factory to get more bait listsββ It's best to wear winter clothes, the unit price is high, let her eat a few more orders, all the cash flow is planted into the postponement of shipments, anyway, there is no contract, drag her for three months, and then deliver after the year, winter clothes as soon as the New Year, it will not be sold until November, I see what she should do with that batch of unsalable goods. When the time comes, no one will pay attention to her sitting on the ground and crying, and she will dare to come to N City in the future?"
She blew her nails, "Beat him up and leave?" It's just too gentle, and too lazy, wasting the foreshadowing I made for him...... In short, if you want Sister Zhang to choose between these two moves, do you think she will hold your thighs and beg to be beaten?"
ββ¦β¦ I don't want to be hugged by her, how dirty it is......"
It's just a provocation...... Well, although Sister Zhang may not be more than provocative, the result is probably just so strict, in exchange for the end of several years of hard work in vain and being pressed to death, listening to Qiao Yun's meaning, this is still 'too gentle' for Sister Zhang, Chen Di was speechless, and it took a long time to hold back a sentence, "That...... What if she forfeits?"
"What should I do, you eat them all, they are all good goods, and you don't have to worry about selling them every other year, and you can still sell them when you find a celebrity to wear them." Qiao Yun said, "Chen Indigo, such a simple means of cash flow operation, you can't use your brains." β
"Oooh oh. Brother Qing was submissive, Qiao Yun felt that he was completely suppressed by his own momentum, and his brain couldn't turn away, so he couldn't help but be angry and funny, "Chen Indi! Are you listening?
"What?" Qing Ge was confused at first, but fortunately he reacted quickly, "Oh oh...... You mean...... The order for the 5,000 T-shirts that Sister Zhang left behind?"
"Otherwise?" Qiao Yun was not angry, "Do you want me to teach you?" This kind of abandoned order factory must be thrown off at a low price, you can eat it and put it first, one day Lin Xiaofang really decided to make this T, just enough to use it to snipe her, and if you don't snipe, you can rub the heat...... How do you want to rub the heat, do you want me to teach it?"
"No, no. Brother Qing was also ashamed and apologized repeatedly, "What's wrong with me today, I can't turn my brain." β
"Hmph. Qiao Yun was satisfied, she waved her hand, "You can eat the profits of this order yourself, don't give it to me, just take it as a comfort for your hard work." β
"Oh, okay, thank you, sister...... No, no, thank you. Brother Qing was suppressed again, and he said the wrong thing again.
Qiao Yun snorted, "It's not a loss to you to call your sister." β
Thinking about Chen Indi's majestic appearance in her previous life, she couldn't help but giggle again, "Okay, okay, don't talk about it, you have to use more snacks, don't rely on me for everything." I'm going to retreat for the next period of time, and you can operate Taobao, don't let me down. β
"Understood!"
"Also, don't learn badly from Brother Hong, this person's means are a bit low, deal with him, pay more attention. β
"Hmm!"
Qiao Yun almost couldn't help laughing again, she bit her lower lip, "Okay, there's nothing else I'm going to hang up - do you still have something to tell me?"
"How do you know?" Brother Qing was startled, Qiao Yun didn't bother to answer this question at all, "I'm ...... I'll just ...... I said don't laugh at me, demon, I feel that Sister Zhang's way of moving makes me feel a little uncomfortable......"
This time, Qiao Yun didn't laugh at him, she paused the action of sharpening the pen, the tip of the pen paused on the white paper, lowered her eyes, and burst out a quiet and nostalgic smile.
"I know. She said softly, "I don't like it eitherβI prefer the kind of method I told you, so we have to work hard in the future, and try not to ask someone like Brother Hong to help us with things, okay?"
ββ¦β¦ Good. Brother Qing's voice was obedient, like a fluffy little animal, and he seemed to be talking to himself. "We want to be as strong as possible. β
"Yes, make yourself stronger, so that all those who dare to touch you will be penniless and escape from N City in despair," Qiao Yun dreamily revered, "Those who dare to touch my Qiao Yun, this is their only fate." β
Brother Qing was amused to laugh, the previous loss slowly faded, and he even began to have the courage to be curious, "Can't I really look for you for anything these days?"
"Hmm. Retreat, don't bother me with anything. β
"Okay," he promised, and couldn't help asking, "what are you going to do?"
Qiao Yun didn't answer him directly, "It's a very important thing." β
She put the phone aside and blew hard to wipe the dust off the white paper, pushing aside all the worries and clutter on the table, leaving only a blank sheet of paper, a pencil, which filled the entire desktop.
"Okay, let's get started now. She said to herself, "Draw a user avatar ......"
This is the first step in creating your own brand: draw as detailed a picture of the user as possible, the clearer the image and the clearer the brand positioning, the easier it is to open up the situation.
All the regrets of the past life and this life, suddenly seem to be pressed on the wrist, so many years she has been step by step close, once quickly far away, once at the fingertips, once far away in the sky, she suddenly had a moment of trance, as if she was still in that cramped student dormitory, tearing off her sketches one by one, with tears, with dreams, all thrown away, at that moment she admitted that she was a failure, after that, how many moments when she wanted to go back and couldn't get back, how many late nights, her fingertips brushed the user image of Pinqing, fell into the blank paper, but she was so panicked and depressed that she couldn't even pick up a pencil, how many moments did she think she would never be able to pick up this pen again-
Qiao Yun shook her head, shaking away all her thoughts, she raised her pen and took a deep breath.
Happiness and panic are entangled at the same time, it is difficult to distinguish yin and yang, and her wrists are light and heavy, at this moment, the whole world seems to be hanging on the tip of her pen.
