Qiangzi explained in detail: "Compared with men's wear, especially formal wear, women's wear pays more attention to the change of styles and the diversification of fabrics, and women's wear must follow the pace of fashion, so the role of designers is more prominent." Men's clothing, especially casual clothing, because the changes in style, fabric and color are not as obvious as women's fashion, so fast, the customer's eyes will naturally focus on workmanship, price, etc. In clothing, casual clothing has the strictest requirements for craftsmanship and fit. The simplest example, now the general women's clothing, is divided into four or five, seven or eight sizes, but generally as long as a little regular casual clothing manufacturers, men's clothing is at least divided into more than a dozen or even more than 20 sizes, I heard that good foreign manufacturers, there will be about forty or fifty sizes. Therefore, the production of men's casual clothing pays more attention to the role of craftsmen. This is also the truth that a good designer is not necessarily a good tailor. ”

Liu Zhengming asked: "So, to make men's and women's casual clothing, we must put craftsmanship first, and design second?" ”

Qiangzi smiled: "That's the truth." To make suits, the requirements for equipment are much higher than those for fashion, and the requirements for the craftsmanship level of workers are also higher. ”

Liu Zhengming pondered for a while and asked, "Then, how high are the requirements for equipment you mentioned?" ”

Qiangzi asked: "Do you plan to set up an ordinary clothing design factory, or do you want to set up a relatively large and better clothing design factory?" ”

Liu Zhengming said: "What kind of equipment do better and larger garment design factories need, and how much does it cost? ”

"It's hard to say this...... Qiangzi smiled, didn't know what to say, and considered, "I went to Guangzhou this time and visited several garment design factories. The larger garment design factories over there use a large number of equipment imported from West Germany and Japan. For example, the buttonhole machine, which is also made in China, is not expensive, that is, more than 20,000, but the effect is very poor, and the effect of the West German machine cannot be compared, but the price is also two or three times more expensive, almost the price of a car. Another example is ironing equipment, domestic vacuum suction ironing table, that is, 10,000 yuan, but it is much better than ordinary electric irons, but it is good, and people's steam-shaped ironing line is still incomparable, that assembly line, each machine has a division of labor, a line at least seven or eight machines, each more than 20,000, this is 200,000, and then with a boiler, if all are imported, it must be expensive. There is also a bag opening machine, only imported, a machine, a car can hardly be replaced. I estimate that if you build a similar factory, the equipment alone will cost at least one million. ”

Liu Zhengming said "um", but he didn't show surprise, and asked: "Isn't your factory also making casual clothes?" What about the equipment? I look at your casual clothing products, they are all very good......"

Qiangzi smiled: "My factory is actually a workshop, what good equipment can I have?" It's all thanks to the skills of some of my old employees! To tell you the truth, I have invited craftsmen from Shanghai to do training, so the technology of my staff is first-class. ”

Liu Zhengming and his wife have been to Qiangzi's factory, visited, and have a deep impression of what Qiangzi said, especially the work attitude of the employees of Dayang Garment Design Factory, which is very appreciative and envious. At this time, I asked: "Have you ever thought about updating the equipment in your factory?" ”

Hadron honestly said: "How can you not want to? I dreamed of making the factory bigger and replacing it with the latest equipment. However, I have limited funds, and the bank will not lend us money. Even if next year, I can struggle to invest dozens or even millions of funds to update equipment, but my factory can't! If you want to make the garment design factory bigger, you can't always rent an idle warehouse, right? I am a self-employed person, and I don't have a Huangzhou hukou, so the land grant can block people to death! ”

In fact, to be honest, Hadron is not familiar with these things at all, if it weren't for Lin Kite, the designer, it is estimated that Hadron will not change from an agent to a businessman, no matter how powerful he is.

Qiangzi is a person who is very knowledgeable about current affairs, and Lin Yuan is very surprised.

I always thought that Qiangzi was a rough person, but I didn't expect Qiangzi to really have business acumen, and it wasn't because of Qiangzi's business acumen, and the three of Men Shaoting would not have a good life in Nancheng.

Qiangzi is not afraid to say that there is anything wrong with this, the facts are the facts, he knows that his own advantages can not be learned by their private enterprises, and similarly, the benefits of private enterprises, he can only watch if he understands them.

"Well, that's right." Liu Zhengming smiled, he naturally knew the difficulties of these individual and private factories, "We don't have these problems of yours, but it's a pity that there is a lack of talents like you!" ”

"It's not that there is a lack of talent. I think it is difficult for you to display your talents, because you are a private enterprise, and you are always not as flexible as the mechanism of our private enterprises. ”

This Liu Zhengming agreed: "Also, the private system has too many rules and regulations, and the burden is too heavy, and it can't compete with your individual and private factories." ”

"It can't be said that the private sector can't compete with the individual and the private."

Qiangzi said, "The country's enterprises still have many innate advantages that we can't compare, such as land acquisition, recruitment, procurement of fabrics, credibility in the eyes of customers when contacting business outside, etc., of course, mainly depends on how to manage and operate." ”

"That's why I said, we don't have a talent like that manager!"

He praised himself like this, and Qiangzi was a little embarrassed. For Liu Zhengming, Qiangzi still has a good impression. He has no official spirit, and he can also interact with Hadron with a relatively equal attitude, unlike some cadres, who can raise their nostrils to the top of their heads when they hear that they are private individuals. Even if some people can be "approachable", there is still arrogance hidden in their bones. He smiled and joked: "Otherwise, I will also serve as the general manager of your Liu Group's garment design factory?" ”

Liu Zhengming smiled and said, "Okay, I can't ask for it!" Let's settle it?! ”

Qiangzi smiled: "What Mr. Liu says counts? ”

"Of course!" Liu Zhengming blinked proudly, "Who am I?" I'm the leader of Liu's Group! Whose is it that I'm talking about? ”

"Not really?" Liu Zhengming smiled, "I also know that I just asked you to be a general manager, and you may not be interested." Besides, even if you are willing to be the general manager, we probably can't afford to hire you, and our salary is probably not in your eyes. ”

"So, what does Mr. Liu mean ......?"

"I have this idea." Liu Zhengming leaned towards Qiangzi and said, "Can we cooperate with the two of us to build such a clothing design factory?" Can we have both the policy benefits of our private enterprises and the flexibility of the individual and private economies in terms of institutional management -- to combine the advantages of our two companies to complement each other's advantages? ”

"You mean, your Liu Group and I cooperate to set up a factory?"

"That's what it means."

It seems that this is the main purpose of Liu Zhengming inviting himself to dinner tonight. Being able to be favored by Liu Zhengming, the boss of the business community in Nancheng, and become a partner of the Liu Group Building, which is in charge of the business community in Nancheng, Qiangzi was really a little flattered for a while, but if you think about it carefully, this topic tonight should be Liu Zhengming had an idea and came to talk to him, not a temporary idea as he showed just now. Thinking about it this way, Qiangzi is a little apprehensive again, after all, people like Liu Zhengming are veterans in the business world, and they are all old foxes who don't sound good, he wants to cooperate, there are many people to choose from, how could he choose me?

Qiangzi asked: "I don't know how big the scale of this factory that Mr. Liu is going to invest in?" ”

Liu Zhengming smiled, didn't speak, lit a cigarette, took a puff, looked at Qiangzi, and said: "My idea is that since you do it, you can't be too stingy, an investment of two or three million is not very meaningful, anyway, it is a loan, so just make it bigger." ”

"Five million?" Qiangzi remembered the Mo's clothing design company of the Mojia family in Beicheng, that factory, the second phase of the project is completed, and it will reach a scale of 100 million next year, right?

Liu Zhengming nodded and said: "We will gradually invest, and the total investment should be more than 100 million, so that we will have the opportunity to overpower the existing garment design factories in Nancheng and become the boss of Nancheng." ”

Qiangzi asked, "How do you get the money?" Half on one side? ”

Liu Zhengming smiled and said, "This, we can discuss it slowly." Now you just say, are you not interested in my proposal? ”

Qiangzi smiled: "There must be interest, if this thing is done, it will be a great thing for me and for the Liu Group!" That is, Liu's Group and I are a joint venture, one is too strong, the other is too weak...... In the end, I don't know if I'll end up ...... Ending up just working for the Liu Group? ”

"Not really." Liu Zhengming flicked the ashes of his cigarette, thought for a while and said, "Since I fancy the manager's ability, I won't waste it." Let's put it this way, I'll give you a statement: if the cooperation is successful, I will hand over this clothing design factory to you. How about our management personnel only send a deputy general manager and an accountant? You have to understand that after all, we are a private board of directors, and we still have to have the necessary form, otherwise I will not be able to explain to the board of directors. At the same time, only two people were sent and not many were dispatched, in order not to interfere in the operation of the garment design factory, and to give full play to the advantages of the system as much as possible. ”

These conditions can't be considered bad, and the hadron is really tempting. If this factory is really completed, it will be much easier to do everything in the future, wearing the hat of a private enterprise, and the garment design factory can also change its guns at once, and then embark on the road of regularization, why not?

The problem is also funding. Liu's Group is not short of funds, that is the matter of Liu's Group, the one that should be paid by oneself, or oneself, this is a matter of the proportion of shares, if it is only a small shareholder, it is no different from a part-time job.

"I don't know if Mr. Liu has any specific plans for this clothing design factory?" "If I have a plan, I can take it back and think about it, after all, it's a big deal for me." ”

"It's a big deal not only for you, but also for me!" Liu Zhengming said with a smile, "I won't tell you, I've been paying attention to you for a day or two." I've been paying attention to you since you opened your first mall in the Women's and Children's Mall. You opened a counter in Liu's Group, but you never left my sight! I appreciate your way of doing business, your ability, that's why I have such an idea, to be honest, if you don't participate, I don't necessarily have to run this clothing design factory. Therefore, this clothing design factory is still an intention, and there is no specific plan. My opinion, let's communicate like this tonight, and when we go back, we will think about it again, and we will meet again in a few days to discuss the specific details, what do you think? ”
