Chapter Twenty-Eight: Bottlenecks

Hearing Gao Zhan's words, the three girls still didn't dare to relax, but they sat on the sofa opposite Gao Zhan according to their words, looking at Gao Zhan with their eyes, waiting for his lecture.

Shaking his head helplessly, Gao Zhan sighed: "Don't be so cautious, I won't criticize you, even if you do something wrong, it's not sorry for me, but sorry for yourself!" ”

Speaking of this, Gao Zhan's expression became serious: "I don't just want to run this store to make crazy money, it won't last long, and it can't be big." ”

The purpose of my founding this company is to find a group of ambitious, ideal friends, everyone get together, display their talents, work hard, to realize their own value, to prove their ability, from a certain point of view, the company is mine, but it is everyone's!

Speaking of this, Gao Zhan paused slightly, looked at the new girl and said: "Today, there is indeed something wrong with your attitude, but I will not curse you or criticize you because of this, because when you join this store, you have become our partner, not my employee, as a partner, no one is qualified to criticize you and curse you!" ”

Looking at the girl's increasingly confused expression, Gao Zhan continued: "You are working here for yourself, in order to realize your self-worth and prove your ability, and we also need your strength to help us, and the money you get is not given to you by us, but by your own labor." ”

Stretching out a finger, Gao Zhan continued: "However, although we will not criticize you or curse you, if your existence affects the image of the store and destroys the results of everyone's joint efforts, then no one can forgive you, because you have become a roadblock for everyone!" ”

Speaking of this, Gao Zhan looked at Lin Na: "The work in the store is managed by the store manager, under normal circumstances, I will not interfere, I believe...... Since she invited you, there must be her reasons, I will not completely deny everything about a person because of a mistake, everyone will make mistakes, no one will be an exception, what I like more is whether she will correct her mistakes in the end! Are you right, store manager Linna? ”

Hearing Gao Zhan call her name, Lin Na hurriedly stood up, and just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Gao Zhan and motioned for her to sit down and talk.

Smiling at Gao Zhan, Lin Na sat down again, looked at the new girl seriously and said, "Zhou Yue, I agree with what the boss just said, once your actions destroy the image of the store, then you not only cause damage to the boss, but also damage the results of each of our efforts." ”

Speaking of this, Lin Na paused for a moment, and then continued: "You just came, there are many things you don't know very well, maybe ...... You think of it as some other store, or do it as you used to, but I'll tell you, that's not the case. ”

As she spoke, Lin Na's eyes gradually lit up, and she said hopefully: "Being a clerk here is only temporary, as long as we pass the inspection, we can be transferred to the headquarters, become a tailor, or even become a designer, at that time, every time we design a garment, we can get 10% of the net profit of this garment!" ”

"Yikes!" Hearing Lin Na's words, the girl named Zhou Yue couldn't help but scream, and subconsciously covered her mouth with her hand, looking incredulous!

Seemingly not seeing Zhou Yue's surprised look, Lin Na continued: "Not only that, once we become costume tailors, then...... Our bonuses will also fluctuate with the benefits of our tailoring clothing, with the current situation of Lu Ying clothing, as long as we officially enter the company, in terms of income alone, it is easy to reach the level of gold collar! ”

Hearing this, He Wei seemed to be a little unbearable on the side, and said: "The most important thing is that this gives us a stage and space to show ourselves, once we become designers, we can definitely achieve fame and fortune and realize our dreams, which is the most important thing!" ”

Smiling and nodding to He Wei, Lin Na turned her head and looked at Zhou Yue and continued, "Now do you understand what impact your actions have today?" You not only harm the interests of the boss, but also damage the interests of a large number of employees, you offend not only the boss alone, but including tailors, sewingers, designers, every employee of the company!

In this case, it doesn't matter whether the boss keeps you or not, because the boss doesn't care about this at all, but when the entire company is hostile to you, no one can keep you.

Speaking of this, Lin Na sighed, shook her head and said: "Don't say anything else, your actions today alone have lowered the boss's evaluation of me and He Wei's work, and your performance not only discredited yourself, but also offset a lot of the results of the two of us working hard for a month." “

"I ...... I ......" Listening to Lin Na's words, Zhou Yue's big bright eyes quickly filled with tears, looking like six gods without a master, she really didn't know that her small surname Ren would endanger so many people! It really wasn't what she wanted to see.

What she couldn't accept the most was that she, who had always been strong and competitive, could suffer the resentment and hostility of so many people, and that feeling was really terrible.

Seeing that the little girl was about to cry, Gao Zhan hurriedly clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, it's not that serious, I said it, it's not terrible to make mistakes, it's terrible to be wrong and don't know how to repent, in that case, we are really not suitable for them here." ”

Speaking of this, Gao Zhan looked at Lin Na and said: "And you too, you are the store manager, but you must know that the people we recruit are young, energetic, and motivated young people, we want to allow everyone to make mistakes, the only thing we exclude is those who have mistakes but refuse to correct them, if they make mistakes, they will be fired, then what will we end up with?" ”

"En......" nodded with bright eyes, originally ...... Lin Na was already ready to fire Zhou Yue, but after listening to Gao Zhan's words, her heart suddenly became cheerful, yes...... Young people make mistakes, and if they don't even have such tolerance, then how can people be loyal to the company?

Seeing that Lin Na agreed with her thoughts, Gao Zhan turned his head, looked at Zhou Yue and said, "Actually, you don't need to be too sad, let's be honest, I appreciate you." ”

"Ahh Hearing Gao Zhan's words, the three girls were stunned, what is this? was scolded, but admired each other, is it a cheap bone? How can it be!

Looking at the surprised looks of the three girls, Gao Zhan smiled and said, "I'm not a cheap bone, I believe it...... I'm not the first man to break in, and I'm not the first to be kicked out, let's honestly think about it, when someone breaks in, isn't everyone's feeling in their hearts the same as Zhou Yue? ”

"This ......" In the face of Gao Zhan's inquiry, Lin Na and He Wei were speechless, although their attitude has always been very good, it does not mean that their hearts must be the same as their appearances! Really speaking, the only difference between them and Zhou Yue is that Zhou Yue said what was in her heart......

Looking at Zhou Yue, Gao Zhan continued: "From Zhou Yue's performance just now, I saw her truthfulness and her straightforwardness, which are all very valuable qualities. ”

Hearing Gao Zhan's words, Lin Na and He Wei frowned, aren't they real, aren't they straightforward? Are they hypocritical?

Just when the two girls were secretly frowning, Gao Zhan's tone suddenly changed, and he said seriously: "But...... Zhou Yue, you must realize that now you are a clerk and a service staff, and your words and deeds no longer represent yourself, in this regard, you have to learn more from Lin Na and He Wei, in fact...... Their inner feelings are the same as yours, but for the sake of the store and the image of the company, they have to show their best side, because they know that they are the face of the company, even if they are wronged, they must be patient! ”

In just one sentence, Gao Zhan said that Lin Na and He Wei were red-eyed, and the grievances and depression of many days were released in Gao Zhan's words, at this moment, they finally knew that everything they had encountered, the boss knew, and every bit of their efforts, the boss saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.

Shaking his head, Gao Zhan continued: "It is said that customers are God, and we must treat customers as parents, but to be honest, what we can do is only on the surface, who can really treat customers as God and parents from the heart?" That's! That's why we have rules, smile service, and polite hospitality! ”

"I'm sorry, boss...... I was wrong, and I promise I will never do it again! Facing Gao Zhan's words, Zhou Yue lowered her head and said in a low voice.

"Uh......" Facing Zhou Yue's apology, Gao Zhan was stunned for a moment, and then laughed and said, "What are you doing?" Why did you apologize! Ay...... It seems that you still don't get it. ”

As he spoke, Gao Zhan raised his voice and said very seriously: "You must realize that we are partners and equal, you don't need to apologize to me, all your efforts are for yourself, if you don't work well, the probation period expires, you naturally can't stay, and it is even possible to leave early, if you work well, then you will be more able to prove your self-worth and realize your ideals!" ”

After a pause, Gao Zhan summed up his surname and said: "Your stay and your performance, the decision is not in my hands, but in everyone's hands, even if you make a mistake, you don't need to apologize to me, the only thing you should do is to apologize to yourself, because you wasted everyone's efforts, you wasted your time, wasted a rare opportunity, didn't you?" ”

"En......" Hearing this, Zhou Yue's eyes finally lit up, although she was not sure whether what Gao Zhan said was true or false, but she had really understood that Gao Zhan never thought that she was superior, but really respected them as partners.

If someone makes a mistake, Gao Zhan will not jump over and point at the other party's nose and scold, let alone any actions such as expulsion on the spot, if it is suitable, he will naturally stay, and if it is not suitable, no one will allow him to stay!

Waving his hand, Gao Zhan smiled and said, "Okay, let's not talk about this matter, let him go if it's over, and then ...... Linna, tell me about the situation in the store. ”

"Okay......" Hearing Gao Zhan's words, Lin Na suddenly came to her senses, got up and went to the counter to take out the account book, sat down next to Gao Zhan, opened the account book, and put it in front of Gao Zhan, and said excitedly: "In the past month, the development of the store has been very fast. ”

By 2:35 p.m. the day before yesterday, we had sold 200 sets of garments in 32 days, and the prices were set according to the price list given by the company.

Two hundred sets! Listening to this huge number, Gao Zhan was dumbfounded, this is too exaggerated! Lin Na and He Wei may not know very well, but Gao Zhanke knows very well, in terms of price, Li Qian deducts all expenses, and the price of 1000 net profit per piece is set, and if there are 200 sets, the net profit is 200,000!

It is worth noting that the net profit here refers to the profit that can be directly put into the pocket after deducting all expenses, and there is no need to spend a cent, such as the salary of the clerk, the rent of the house, etc., which have been deducted. 200,000 a month! Isn't that an exaggeration!

In shock, Lin Na frowned and continued: "But boss, if I am not wrong, the development of our store seems to have reached a bottleneck, and now it is basically fixed on six or seven sets every day, which will not increase or decrease, and basically come to buy clothes, all of them are some fixed customers." ”

"What!" Hearing Lin Na's words, Gao Zhan couldn't help but be stunned, was it a bottleneck so soon? Could it be ...... Is that all there is to the potential of Lu Ying clothing?

Looking at Gao Zhan's surprised look, Lin Na continued: "There is no doubt about the potential of our Lu Ying clothing, but the problem now is that in terms of the positioning of our clothing, it is a mid-range clothing, and the price is around fifteen to two thousand, but ...... We're in ...... position right now."

"Smack!" Hearing this, Gao Zhan couldn't help but slap his thigh, yes...... It is indeed close to the university, but because of this, the development of Lu Ying's clothing has been restricted.

There are many people in the university town, but there are only a few people who can afford to consume a wave of thousands of clothes, and the current positioning of Luying clothing is more suitable for white-collar and petty bourgeois consumption.

After thinking about it, Lin Na continued: "Moreover, the environment around our clothing store is really a little messy, with commissaries, tailor shops, cold drink shops, Internet cafes, snack shops, hardware stores, handicraft stores, ......."

"Sweat ......" listened to Lin Na's narration, and a cold sweat broke out on Gao Zhan's forehead instantly, what is this, what is this, a clothing brand that is definitely a high-end for ordinary citizens, and it is actually opened with grocery stores and hardware stores, and the store is so small, it is strange if it is not a bottleneck!

Just imagine, the so-called white-collar workers, petty bourgeoisie, but drive a BMW into such a messy, messy, dirty street, into such a narrow storefront to buy clothes, even if the clothes are really good, but that feeling, where is the slightest taste of white-collar workers and petty bourgeoisie? It's really bad, and if it takes a long time, it will even affect the image of the brand!

Seeing that Gao Zhan listened to her words, Lin Na continued: "Moreover, although the flow of customers here is good, most of them are college students, and they generally don't enter our store. ”

"This ...... There are so few rich girls in college? Hearing Lin Na's words, Gao Zhan was a little puzzled.

Frowning, Lin Na shook her head and said, "No, it's actually not a matter of less, it's a matter of values." ”

There are so many girls in college, and there are not a few rich ones, but the problem now is that college students pay more attention to the brand, they identify with the brand, not the clothing itself, even if the clothing is ugly and not suitable for them, they will feel very beautiful and face-saving, on the contrary...... No matter how good the clothes are, if they are stalls, they will not look at them with their eyes.

White-collar workers and petty bourgeoisie are different, they are also women, but they have already stepped into society, they know more about the importance of women's capital, and they know how to show the charm of women!

To put it bluntly, college students want face, while white-collar workers and petty bourgeoisie want practicality! They don't care about the brand, they pay more attention to how to hide their flaws, how to highlight their pride, although the brand is also very important, but they will never wear a clothing that is not suitable for them, self-blowing short.

To put it bluntly, the purpose is stronger, white-collar workers and petty bourgeoisie, pay more attention to exuding their charm, more practical, and college students pay more attention to spiritual, Platonic feeling.

"Khan ......" wiped the sweat from his forehead, and Gao Zhan was convinced, indeed...... It's really like this in school, wearing a famous brand is itchy, and it doesn't matter whether it's suitable for you or not, in the eyes of most college students, brand is equal to taste, taste is equal to elegance, equal to high level!

Not just clothes, but hairstyles, handbags, jewelry, and much more...... Students love imitation the most, but they never care whether it is suitable for them or not, for example, which TV series is popular, it is likely that the whole school will imitate, and such a thing, among those women who have gone into society, will basically not appear.

Women who have entered the society understand that women are so beautiful to attract men, although the purpose of attracting men is diverse, some are for marriage, some are for promotion, and some are for business, but in short, they are more practical and practical.

It is precisely because of this that Lu Ying clothing will be positioned in the middle and high-end class, for students, no matter how expensive you are, no matter how cheap you are, if it is not a famous brand, you will not buy it, and for white-collar workers and petty bourgeoisie, as long as it is suitable, they will buy it.

Nodding subconsciously, Gao Zhan said modestly: "That's true, this store has to change places, but I have just been in Changzhou for a short time, and I am not very familiar with this place. ”

"This ......" Facing Gao Zhan's inquiry, Lin Na shook her head with a wry smile and said, "I don't know about this, after all...... I studied tailoring and design, so I don't have any knowledge of it, but I don't think that places like Jinmandi and Trendy Special Zone are not suitable for us, even in big shopping malls like Heiwado, after all...... Our features are absolutely different from ordinary clothing. ”

Nodding suddenly, Gao Zhan instantly understood, indeed...... Although Luying clothing has great potential, for now, it is not suitable for mass production, and it is mainly tailored as the biggest feature!

Lu Ying's design level is naturally high, but how to say that score, compared with big companies and big designers, there is still a lot lacking, after all, ...... Lu Ying's time out of the mountain village is too short, she still has too many things to learn, and now she can only say that she has talent, talent, and the potential to become a master, but it can't be said that she is already a master.

In terms of design, it can't be compared with big designers, and it can't go up in terms of output, so the biggest feature of Lu Ying clothing is that it is tailor-made, tailored by a special designer for customers, and every piece of clothing is handmade, which is the most suitable for the customer, which is the life of Lu Ying clothing.

If you go to the trendy special zone of the pedestrian street, or the golden land, or go to the counter of the big shopping mall, then this feature will be infinitely reduced, or even disappear, in that case, Lu Ying clothing is not competitive, the top can't be compared, the bottom can't be compared, there is absolutely no way out.

Scratching his head painfully, Gao Zhan was a little dazed, what should he do? Left and right, it seems that everything is in vain, can it be said...... Is the limit of Lu Ying's costume here?

Shaking her head, Gao Zhan knew that it was basically impossible to find the answer from Lin Na, she must have been thinking about this question for a long time, but she could only come up with something that was not suitable, as for what to do, she didn't have the slightest clue.

Cheering up his spirits, Gao Zhan said confidently: "Very good, I am responsible for this matter, you work hard, and I will solve other things." ”

As he spoke, Gao Zhan stood up, escorted by three girls, left the shop, got on the battered bicycle, and hurried all the way to home.

Looking at Gao Zhan's figure gradually moving away, Zhou Yue's eyes were full of appreciation, and she said with admiration: "This is the person who is called a big thing, and people will have confidence at a glance!" ”

"Hehe......" Hearing Zhou Yue's words, Lin Na smiled and said, "What? Now it looks like a person who does big things? Why didn't you see it when you rushed out just now! ”

Glancing at Lin Na embarrassedly, Zhou Yue pouted, "Didn't you know that he was the boss at that time?" Now that I know that he is the boss, and the big boss who can earn 200,000 yuan a month, it is naturally different, do you see, such a rich person, but still riding such a broken bicycle, I now understand, low-key is really the most elegant show-off! In comparison, those guys who open a small shop, just put a leather bag every day, comb their hair with oil, and pretend to be five or six people, are nothing. ”

"Low-key?" With a wry smile, He Wei next to him shook his head and said: "The boss is not low-key at all, wait until the next time you come, when you drive the Hummer H6, you will know what it means to be high-profile!" ”

"Fierce ...... Hummer H6? Hearing He Wei's words, Zhou Yue's mouth opened wide and she couldn't say a word.

(To be continued)
