047: Huddle to make the market bigger (two more)
These New Year's activities are not new, Chang Xi has been socializing all kinds of near the end of the year in his previous life, this is a routine operation, and it is normal to exchange news with various business colleagues.
As soon as President Xu saw her, he came forward to greet her, and then complained as if it were true, "Chang Niangzi, if you have a good business, you don't bring a little old man, you are not kind." ”
Chang Xi hurriedly smiled and said, "Old Xu, look at what you said, if I really have a good business, I will definitely be the first to think of you." ”
President Xu immediately laughed out loud when he heard this, this Chang family is so interesting, but he really has the heart to make friends with her, so he whispered, "Chang Niangzi, the news that you are going to enter the textile industry has already spread all over the sky, but you have to be careful, not to mention that your actions are too big, and vested interests will keep an eye on you." At this time, he secretly glanced at the big textile merchants.
Chang Xi immediately understood, because she had already felt that the hostile eyes over there had been revolving around her, obviously afraid that she would share a big piece of the cake from the big textile family, but to do business, if you are afraid, then simply don't do it, and go home directly to support the elderly.
So, on the one hand, she thanked President Xu, and on the other hand, she raised the wine glass in her hand to toast them at the big textile family who hated her to death, but it seemed to be full of provocation in their eyes.
When President Xu saw Chang Xi's move, he immediately cried and laughed, she was adding fuel to the fire.
"Why do you bother? Harmony makes money. ”
The young man was so willful, and his eyes were full of disapproval.
Chang Xi shrugged his shoulders, "Even if I keep a low profile in the dust today, they will still look at me unpleasantly, so why should I be wronged?" ”
President Xu won't persuade anymore now, anyway, good words are hard to persuade damn ghosts, so why should he make people suspicious?
The few big textile owners who were provoked by Chang Xi immediately quit, this woman was too arrogant, she couldn't bear it anymore, and she walked straight over.
One of them smiled and said, "Chang Niangzi, I have admired my name for a long time." ”
Chang Xi actually didn't recognize the other party, but this didn't prevent her from greeting each other for a few words.
President Xu immediately introduced to both parties, "Mrs. Chang, this is the third master of Mao from Baofeng Yarn Company. ”
Chang Xi took the opportunity to give the other party a salute, but the third master Mao didn't take it big, and quickly gave Chang Xi a salute back.
A few people next to him couldn't get used to it, "Lao Mao, you have fallen into your own prestige." ”
"Chang Niangzi, let me ask you, the price chaos in the cotton market in the north this year, did you do it?" One of the middle-aged and elderly people, who was five big and three thick, asked in a calm breath.
"Everyone is a member of the Yiyang Chamber of Commerce, you are not authentic in doing this, you have raised the price of cotton this year, and you have also signed a contract with retail investors for the next three years, is it too overbearing to do so?"
"That's right, everyone has been safe for so many years, but you don't do your tea bricks well, and you actually enter the textile industry, what are your intentions?"
One after another, there was a lot of questioning, obviously there was a backlog of fire, and I couldn't catch Chang Xi every day, after all, Chang Xi was a woman, and it was not good to join their usual drinking game of eating, drinking, and having fun, where could I miss this opportunity now?
On the one hand, Chairman Xu was worried that Chang Xi would not be able to cope with these shopping mall veterans, and on the other hand, he was watching a play, after all, the Chamber of Commerce had not been so strong in gunpowder for a long time, and he didn't see everyone else looking at this side openly and secretly.
When Chang Xi came to the Chamber of Commerce to participate in the year-end activities, she knew that she would be hated for sending people to the north to buy cotton, because she had to do a lot of work, her purchase of cotton was a bit cruel, and it really raised the price of cotton this year.
The planting of cotton is different from tea, tea farmers, land, and tea trees are mostly private by large tea merchants, and cotton is the product of large-scale planting, but the quality of cotton is different in various places, and the quality of cotton in the north is the highest, so she also signed a three-year contract with many cotton growers in the north, which further stimulated the market, and then the price of cotton was inflated.
Looking at the indignant faces, she was not afraid, but also smiled, "The price of cotton is affected by market fluctuations, what does this have to do with me?" This is a trumped-up charge. ”
"You still don't admit it?" The middle-aged and elderly people who were the first to attack were five big and three thick, and their eyes widened in disbelief.
Chairman Xu hurriedly persuaded, "Lao Jiang has something to say, don't be angry, it's almost the New Year, everyone talks well......"
Master Jiang pointed at Chang Xi and said to President Xu, "Old Xu, it's not that I don't want to speak well, but that she speaks too annoyingly, is this a human officer?" ”
Chang Xi said, "Let me ask you, do you really think that the textile industry has entered saturation?" ”
As soon as these words came out, many people whispered and expressed their opinions.
Yiyang City is a port city, the textile industry is quite developed, but it is focused on export sales, that is, to sell goods to foreigners, in terms of domestic sales far from the Jiangnan region, there is no texture, output, variety are better than this.
This time, even the jumping old man Jiang was silent, obviously this line of work cannot reach saturation, and there is still room for export sales to grow again, but the output of Yiyang City is so much, and spinning machines and looms are limited.
"Since there is still room for further growth in this industry, instead of blaming each other here, why not join forces to make the market bigger? Not to mention competing with their counterparts in Jiangnan for the domestic market, just increasing the amount of trade with foreign devils is enough for us to make a lot of money. ”
President Xu looked at Chang Xi's gaze quite complicated this time, such insightful words came from the mouth of a woman, in other words, he didn't believe what others told him.
The scene was quiet, everyone was a businessman, and they could settle the account in their hearts.
A woman who was more than 20 years older than Chang Xi standing in the corner suddenly applauded, "Chang Niangzi, that's a good point, this is a model for my generation." ”
Chang Xi looked at her and nodded at her.
The woman in her thirties and forties slowly approached Chang Xi and saluted Chang Xi, "My husband's surname is Zheng, so everyone calls me Mrs. Zheng." ”
Chang Xi immediately returned the salute, when she reported to her home, she knew who she was, the proprietress of Dingli Weaving Shop, who joined the Yiyang Chamber of Commerce after her.
"Zheng Niangzi, I've admired my name for a long time, but the two of us can cooperate, I don't know if I have this honor in the future?"
She doesn't plan to make a big fuss about the loom recently, and focuses on the spinning machine first, so she has to find another partner for weaving and printing and dyeing.
When Mrs. Zheng heard this, she immediately smiled and said, "Mrs. Chang, I won't tell you, I have this intention, and I came here with this purpose." ”
She has learned about the spinning workshop that Chang Xi wants to build, such a big workshop, it is definitely not a small fight, just like her tea brick workshop, it is not done, and once it is done, it will be a blockbuster.
Fortunately, the other party does not seem to be engaged in spinning, weaving, printing and dyeing, which has room for cooperation, the important thing is that she wants to get acquainted with Chang Xi and expand her network, she didn't have the opportunity before, where will she let go of this opportunity now?
