Ye Shuning was called into an office where there were four people interviewing her. Ye Shuning didn't know which department they were from.

But what surprised Ye Shuning was that she actually saw Assistant Tao, who had shown her the house she rented before. Could this factory be related to Qin Zongye? It couldn't be such a coincidence, could it?

The interview was quite simple. After asking a few simple questions, Qin Zongye's assistant Tao Guanglin took out Ye Shuning's design drawings and said, "Ms. Shu, did you design these two drawings yourself?"

Ye Shuning nodded and said, "Yes, I designed it myself."

Tao Guanglin nodded and said, "Although Huiya Garment is not the largest garment factory in Nangang, it is of a considerable size and has a strong momentum of development. We need designers who can grasp the trend. Although your academic qualifications are not high, your designs are very innovative, so we have decided to keep you."

The salary is 8,000 during the probation period and 10,000 after becoming a regular employee. If the clothes you design sell well, there will be bonuses. Do you have any other requirements?

Ye Shuning thought the salary was quite high, considering her low education level. However, she wanted to work part-time, as she still had to prepare for the university entrance exam.

Ye Shuning said, "I'd like to ask if I can work part-time? It doesn't matter if the salary is a little lower. I will submit a certain amount of design drawings on time every month and will never delay work."

Tao Guanglin was stunned when he heard Miss Shu Ning's request. He kept her according to the boss's request, but he didn't expect that Miss Shu wanted to work part-time, which he had no say in.

He said, "Wait a moment, I'm going to ask our boss."

Tao Guanglin nodded to the other two interviewees and left the room and went to the boss's office.

Qin Zongye saw Tao Guanglin knocking on the door and asked, "How is it?"

Tao Guanglin said, "Boss, Miss Shu Ning wants to work part-time. She seems to have other things to do. What do you think we should do?"

Qin Zongye frowned and said, "Please invite her to my office. I'll talk to her while you interview the other candidates."

When Tao Guanglin heard that his boss would solve the problem personally, he was naturally very happy, so he invited the person to Qin Zongye's office.

Ye Shuning was a little nervous when she learned that the owner of this garment factory wanted to meet her. She didn't know if the owner of this factory was really Qin Zongye, and whether he would agree to her part-time job request?

After entering the office, Ye Shuning saw that it was Qin Zongye sitting inside. She said in surprise, "Mr. Qin, is it really you?"

Qin Zongye looked at the girl in front of him, who had become more mature, confident, and beautiful. He felt that her temperament had improved. A person's temperament is not formed overnight. He was even more certain that the girl he had helped was definitely not an ordinary person.

He stood up with a smile on his face and said, "I am the owner of this garment factory. I saw your design and it is very good, so I would like to invite you to work as a designer here."

But I just heard from my assistant that you want to work part-time? Is there any difficulty?

Ye Shuning said frankly, "I won't hide it from you. I plan to take the college entrance exam."

Qin Zongye didn't expect this to be the reason, and was also surprised by the little girl's decision.

Qin Zongye asked, "Are you planning to study fashion design?"

Ye Shuning shook her head and said, "I'm going to take the chemistry exam."

Qin Zongye was even more surprised when he heard this. The little girl actually chose a major that had nothing to do with fashion design, which was a relatively difficult major to learn.

He couldn't help but ask, "Why do you want to apply to the Department of Chemistry?"

Ye Shuning said: "Currently, university entrance exams are not available in mainland China, but I have been studying chemistry on my own and have also studied with others for a while, so I know more about chemistry and I like it very much. I want to learn more and enrich myself while I am still young.

Although I work part-time as a designer, I can guarantee that the quality and quantity of my designs will not be compromised at all."

Qin Zongye looked at the girl's confident expression and believed her words completely. He believed that she would not lie to him.

He didn't dare to underestimate the young girl who had just come of age, and couldn't help asking, "What do you think of the current garment industry in Nangang?"

Ye Shuning didn't expect Qin Zongye to ask her this question, but she still said, "I've been in Nangang for too short a time, so my understanding isn't very comprehensive. But what I can say for sure is that Nangang's garment industry is developing rapidly and the market is huge. This is an opportunity."

The advantages of Nangang's garment industry are its abundant cheap labor and skilled workers. Nangang's textile industry is also well-developed, providing a sufficient supply of high-quality fabrics for its garment factories. A large number of supporting industries are also thriving.

However, the garment industry's prosperity also hides a significant crisis. The service sector is rapidly expanding. Service workers typically receive higher wages, better working conditions, and a sense of social status. This makes it increasingly difficult for the garment industry to retain employees, and wages are increasingly high.

Nangang will face increasing competition from other low-wage areas. People's needs are also evolving, and clothing fabrics, functionality, and styles require innovation and improvement. Many countries are researching new fabrics, such as lightweight man-made woven fibers or blended fabrics.

The manufacturing industry in Nangang mainly produces cotton products, which means that if the garment industry wants to produce clothes made of new fabrics, it will have to import them, which will invisibly increase costs and squeeze profits.

I think our garment factories can develop towards high-end clothing in the future. Only by keeping up with the trend of the times can we survive.

This is just my humble opinion, I don’t know if it’s right or not.”

Qin Zongye was amazed by Ye Shuning's words. He looked at the little girl with surprise and said with a smile, "It's true that listening to your words is worth ten years of reading. What you said is very good. It is truly instructive for the development of the garment factory. Thank you for telling me this."

Ye Shuning waved her hands and said awkwardly after Qin Zongye praised her so much, "I'm just expressing my own one-sided opinions. These are just some market research I've been doing lately, and they're also in preparation for my designer job application. I'm really showing off my skills in front of you."

Qin Zongye smiled and said, "I'm not showing off my skills in front of an expert. I think your analysis is correct. I support you in going to college. Then, you can work part-time as a designer in our factory. Your salary will remain the same. If your designs sell well, you'll get a bonus."

Ye Shuning heard that the job was done, but she might owe Qin Zongye a favor again, so she should find an opportunity to repay him in the future. She could design more clothes for the factory.

"Thank you, Mr. Qin. Don't worry, I will complete the design with guaranteed quality and quantity. I will also try to come to the factory on weekends. If you have any questions, we can communicate promptly."
