Chapter 57 Chapter 57 Nothing is impossible

"Textile factory?" Xia Ziqing heard the sound outside the door, looked at Yang Dai, walked to the door, but did not open it immediately.

"Hello, comrade. I'm from the Women's Federation at the textile factory. My name is Xu Mei." The person outside, hearing the commotion, introduced herself again. "I'm so sorry to bother you without permission."

Xia Ziqing looked back at Yang Dai again before opening the door.

"Hello, comrade. Please come in and sit down." Xia Ziqing invited the person into the room. Yang Dai also went to the side to get a kettle and poured hot water for the guest who had just entered.

"No need to be so troublesome, no need to be so troublesome." Xu Mei's attitude was very good, and when she saw the actions of the two, the smile on her face became more real.

"I'm here this time to thank you on behalf of our textile factory." Xu Mei said as she took out the thank-you gifts she had prepared long ago, which were all their factory's flagship products.

"If it weren't for your enthusiastic help, we don't know how much loss our factory would have suffered." Xu Mei smiled at the two of them, with gratitude in her eyes.

If it weren't for the active cooperation of Yang Dai and Xia Ziqing, Zeng Mingjie might have been released from the police station long ago due to insufficient evidence.

Therefore, everyone in the textile factory was very grateful for the help of Yangdia and Xia Ziqing.

Initially, the factory leaders arranged for the Women's Federation Director Xu Mei and the Production Director to come together to thank the two, but the Production Director's child suddenly fell ill and there was no one to take care of him at home, so he had to rush home.

Xu Mei still felt very embarrassed about this matter. Even after sitting down, she repeatedly apologized to Yang Dai and Xia Ziqing.

The two of them didn't care about this matter. After all, from the beginning they never thought that the textile factory would come to thank them.

The three of them sat in the guesthouse room and chatted, focusing on Zeng Mingjie.

Because of Zeng Mingjie's perfect performance in the previous two times, the leaders of the textile factory had a natural trust in the business that Zeng Mingjie had negotiated.

Especially this time's partner, Zeng Mingjie repeatedly assured that this was his old classmate, and there would definitely be no problem with this cooperation, plus the other party was very generous in giving the first batch of payment.

During this period, the textile factory's workshops have been running at full capacity, with all workers working hard to produce this batch of fabrics.

With such a large quantity of goods, when we sell them overseas, they may be valued by other foreign companies. Then, foreign trade orders will be endless.

Most people in the textile factory hold this idea, so they produce a large amount of goods in a short period of time.

However, the second batch of payment was delayed, and the person in charge at the textile factory could not be contacted. Zeng Mingjie was suddenly arrested and imprisoned. Only then did the textile factory realize that it was a trap from the beginning.

However, the partner no longer recognizes the quantity of these goods.

A good batch of goods was piled up in the factory warehouse. No matter who saw it, they would scold Zeng Mingjie.

But insulting Zeng Mingjie will not change the current situation, and the textile factory needs to swallow the bitter fruit itself.

The leaders of the textile factory contacted the leaders of the light industry department, and the Light Industry Bureau gave them another solution.

It is said that this batch of goods can be sold as defective products.

This batch of goods was produced specifically at the request of a foreign partner company. This kind of fabric is not popular in China, and if you try to sell it at a normal price, it will only lead to inventory backlogs.

However, the price of defective products is completely different from that of normal products. If the textile factory sells them at the price of defective products, it will also have a large amount of bad debt.

The factory leaders are hesitating at this moment.

"It's this kind of fabric." Xu Mei took it out and said, "This material was specifically requested by that foreign company. It's beautiful and smooth."

As Xu Mei spoke, she touched it with her hand, and her expression of liking was very obvious.

But no matter how much Xu Mei liked this kind of fabric, she would not buy it home.

It looks good, but it is not durable, has no elasticity, and is easily damaged.

The whole family is waiting for food, so asking her to spend money on such fabric would only be in her next life.

Yang Dai and Xia Ziqing both like this kind of fabric.

Yang Dai grew up in a luxurious environment. Although this fabric was not particularly good, it was still considered top-quality compared to the fabrics she had seen after traveling through time.

Xia Ziqing had run so many small businesses in her previous life, and she certainly would not miss out on selling clothes, so she was also very experienced in identifying fabrics.

But it is precisely because of my experience that I feel regretful.

It is undeniable that the fabrics produced by the textile factory this time are really good.

If it were after the reform and opening up, many manufacturers would be scrambling to get such fabrics. After all, clothes made of this kind of texture look very elegant when worn.

But it is really not suitable for today's environment.

In recent years, people are still accustomed to wearing black and blue work clothes, which are as simple as possible.

It is a generally accepted concept that three years new, three years old, and then three years of mending.

The more Xia Ziqing looked at it, the more regretful he became.

"Can I visit your factory?" Xia Ziqing suddenly asked, "It would be a shame if these fabrics were to be stored in a warehouse or treated as defective products."

Xu Mei was a little surprised and stared at Xia Ziqing blankly with her mouth open, but she quickly reacted, "Of course, of course. If you two comrades are willing to come to our factory, we will definitely treat you two great benefactors well." Xu Mei laughed again.

Xia Ziqing looked at Yang Dai.

Yang Dai nodded, "Then let's go and take a look."

Anyway, I'm going home soon, so I might as well go to the textile factory and broaden my horizons.

Moreover, if it weren't for this incident, even if Yang Dai wanted to find an opportunity to visit such a large factory, she would probably not be able to enter the door.

The textile factory is a large factory with tens of thousands of employees and is one of the strongest in the capital. Everyone who works in the factory is proud of their factory, especially the young people, who can feel the vitality of the factory.

Xia Ziqing stood in front of the gate of the textile factory, sighing.

Different choices made by different people indeed bring different opportunities.

She is from Shanghai. In her previous life, she started a small business in Shanghai. She seldom came to the capital and knew nothing about the capital's textile factories.

But at this moment, standing at the gate of the textile factory and seeing the big stone at the entrance, I unexpectedly remembered a report I had read in my previous life.

After the reform and opening up, state-owned factories began to compete with township enterprises and private enterprises.

In fact, since the early 1980s, some small factories have been unable to survive and have begun to go bankrupt and restructure one after another, and workers have been laid off.

However, the closure of large factories basically occurred in the early 1990s.

Among them, the textile factories in the capital closed down earlier.

If she remembered correctly what was in the newspaper, in 1985, when those large factories seemed to be thriving and had great momentum, the textile factories in the capital were the first to announce that they were insolvent and closed down.

In order to clear its debts, the textile factory not only sold its production lines but also auctioned off the land.

The story of the textile factory has completely become a thing of the past in the capital.

The newspapers at the time also said that after the textile factory announced its bankruptcy, everyone discovered that there was still a batch of old inventory piled up in the factory's warehouse, which was at least seven or eight years old. Although the fabrics looked okay, because they had been stored in the warehouse for a long time, many of them had been damaged by rats.

It is said that part of it was burned by fire, but it was rescued in time and did not cause too much damage.

Of course, the backlog of goods was not the main problem for the textile factory's closure. What really caused the textile factory to go bankrupt was that it spent huge amounts of money to introduce production lines from abroad.

After the introduction, it was discovered that this production line was not brand new and was often damaged. The parts were all customized, and each repair required huge manpower, material and financial resources. Moreover, the production efficiency did not improve much, and defective products were often produced.

The textile factory was already in crisis, and this huge production line pushed it to the bottom, leaving it insolvent.

The newspapers Xia Ziqing saw were not real-time ones. It was only when he was collecting old newspapers during his entrepreneurial process that he noticed the news about the textile factory.

At that time, there were more and more factories in the country that were insolvent and declared bankruptcy. Some of them followed the trend of introducing foreign production lines, but were deceived and their production lines became unusable.

But Xia Ziqing didn't know at the time that the textile factory's previous backlog of inventory was also related to foreign cooperation.

Xia Ziqing stood in front of the warehouse, complaining in his heart.

People always say that every failure makes you wiser, but this saying obviously does not apply to textile factories.

The textile factory suffered one setback after another.

Xia Ziqing was full of complaints in his heart and did not notice Yang Dai's expression. At that time, Xu Mei, who was next to him, was very sharp-eyed and could see that Yang Dai might have something to say.

"Comrade Yang Dai, do you have anything to say?" Xu Mei stepped forward and moved closer to Yang Dai.

Yang Dai shifted her gaze from the fabrics and shook her head at Xu Mei.

Xu Mei didn't know whether she was disappointed or relieved. She said a few more polite words and led the two of them to visit other places.

When the two left, the textile factory generously gave them a lot of such fabrics.

As soon as he walked out of the textile factory, Xia Ziqing could no longer hold back.

"Do you have any ideas about this batch of fabrics from the textile factory? Have you found a way to deal with it?" Xia Ziqing's eyes widened, and even though he lowered his voice, he couldn't suppress the shock in his tone.

It was obvious that the two of them visited the textile factory together, but she just stood there complaining about the factory's poor performance, and Yang Dai suddenly came up with a solution?

Yang Dai didn't nod or shake her head, "We'll have to wait and see."

She does have some ideas, but whether they can succeed depends on whether there are people willing to cooperate.

"It will definitely work! There is nothing you can't accomplish!" Xia Ziqing said with certainty.

Xia Ziqing felt a sense of disharmony again. Yang Dai raised her eyebrows slightly, "Do you trust me so much?"

"Of course!" Xia Ziqing was still extremely sure that she would definitely choose to believe Yang Dai!

There is nothing Yang Dai can't do!
