Chapter 234 Cooperation
Lin Anan paced in the room. She knew very well that this opportunity was rare. If she could successfully cooperate with the clothing factory, the income would be considerable and could solve most of the current problems.
"If this succeeds, it will be just like publishing a book. You will get a commission based on the sales, which is a long-term profit. And we are partnering with a military clothing factory, which has a strong foundation and wide sales. It is a good thing no matter how you look at it."
Thinking of the three design drafts to be prepared tomorrow, Lin Anan immediately cheered herself up, went to Chu Minglan's room to get some drawing paper, and prepared to start work.
These three designs must be the kind that can catch people's attention at first glance, and make people see the bright prospects through the design draft.
Lin Anan thought about it and decided to design two everyday styles and one wedding style.
Combined with the current era characteristics and the production needs of bedding factories...
Lin Anan first conceived the design of an everyday style in her mind.
The four-piece set for daily use should be comfortable, beautiful, and in line with the public's aesthetic taste.
She decided on a design with fresh and elegant tones, mainly light blue and white, with some simple geometric patterns painted on it, giving people a tranquil and comfortable feeling, which is suitable for young people and people who like simple style.
For another everyday style, she chose warm colors, mainly beige and light pink, with patterns of some cute small florals, full of life and vigor, which is more suitable for families with children or people who like a warm style.
Lin Anan spent more time thinking about the design of the wedding items.
Currently, when a well-off family marries off their daughter, they will give her a few quilts as a dowry, but they have no idea about wedding bedding products.
If this breakthrough is opened, the profits can be imagined.
Moreover, wedding supplies have special requirements on colors and patterns, they must be festive and auspicious.
Therefore, it was decided to use the traditional bright red as the main color, and to make dragon and phoenix totems on it, symbolizing the auspiciousness of the dragon and the phoenix and a happy marriage.
To make the design richer, she also added some peony patterns on the edges, adding a touch of gorgeousness and wealth.
The materials used for wedding items will be better, and the price will not be low.
There is no need to worry about no one paying the bill. After all, this is a major event in life that only happens once in a lifetime, so it is worth being a little extravagant.
While Lin Anan was designing, she was thinking about the fabric in her mind.
She would have to find time to go and look more, as her stock of fabrics of this era was very low, after all, she was not a professional.
Time passed by minute by minute, and by the time Lin Anan finished three design drafts, Chu Minglan had already prepared dinner.
He stood at the door and stretched to loosen up his spine.
Looking up, I saw the afterglow in the sky like a veil, and the fireworks and twilight intertwined, which was very beautiful.
Lin Anan looked at the beautiful scenery in the sky, and her tiredness instantly dissipated a lot, and the corners of her mouth rose unconsciously.
"Sister-in-law, it's time to eat!" Chu Minglan's crisp voice came from inside the house.
"Coming!" Lin Anan responded and quickly walked into the kitchen to help serve the dishes.
Chu Mingzhou just came back with a bag in his hand containing the newly issued combat uniform.
"Hurry up and wash your hands and eat."
"Um."
At the dinner table, the family is having a great time.
Lin Anan talked about what happened today and asked Chu Mingzhou for his opinion.
The two little guys blinked their curious eyes and listened quietly.
Chu Mingzhou first considered the issue of personal profit. If this is not handled properly, it will be easy for others to make a fuss. "What is the nature of hiring an external designer? If he is a formal employee of the clothing factory, it will also be linked to personal profit."
Lin Anan shook her head. She had thought about this problem a long time ago. "I mentioned it to Sister Zhao. An external designer is just an empty position. I don't have to be paid. I just want to make it reasonable so that I can participate in the design with a legitimate reason and avoid the suspicion of private business.
Regarding the dividends, I also stressed that it is a share of the technology investment, which is equivalent to paying for the use of intellectual property rights. It has nothing to do with personal profits, so you can rest assured. "
Chu Mingzhou nodded slightly, "Don't be too tired, take care of your health."
"I'm not tired, so I just gave her a rough outline and waited for her to bring the design back to the factory for the leaders to see. If they are satisfied, we will discuss it in depth.
I thought that the design drafts would be given on a quarterly basis, three to four designs each quarter, which would not be tiring at all, and I could just use the things in my brain to exchange for some money. "
Chu Mingzhou hummed lightly.
Seeing how hard she worked, Chu Mingzhou thought of the big mission from the organization. It seemed like he should take it on...
"I have very low stock of popular fabrics on the market and I am completely clueless. I will go shopping in department stores during the weekend so that I can have a better idea."
"good."
After dinner, Chu Mingzhou went to clean up the dishes and washed the new clothes.
Lin Anan watched the two little ones doing their homework.
The two little ones were so nervous that they wrote very quickly, not daring to make any mistakes.
You know what, the efficiency is really great.
Before going to bed, Lin Anan carefully sorted out the design draft again, and also added some preliminary ideas about fabrics and craftsmanship next to it, and then she fell asleep peacefully.
The next day, Lin Anan got up early, got herself and her design draft ready, and sat in the main hall waiting.
Soon, there was a knock on the door and Lin Anan hurriedly got up to open it.
Sister Zhao walked in with a beaming face. When she saw the design draft, her eyes lit up immediately: "Sister Lin, you..."
After taking a closer look, Mrs. Zhao nodded her head. "As expected of the only college student in our school, she is truly talented. I don't even need to look at the actual item. Just looking at this wedding-style four-piece set, I want to prepare two sets for my daughter!"
Lin Anan sat beside her with a smile on her face, staring at Sister Zhao's expression intently.
Mrs. Zhao flipped through the pages one by one, making exclamations of admiration from time to time.
“These two models are also good for daily use. If they were put in department stores and supply and marketing cooperatives, they would be snapped up like crazy!” Mrs. Zhao clapped her hands excitedly.
Lin Anan's heart was at ease. "Sister Zhao, as long as you are satisfied, I'm afraid it won't meet the factory's requirements."
Mrs. Zhao waved her hands repeatedly: "It's perfect, it's perfect! The factory leaders will definitely like it, let's strike while the iron is hot, I will report back to the factory immediately."
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, sister-in-law."
Mrs. Zhao is a person who does things efficiently and effectively. She doesn't drag her feet at all. She just asked about the details she didn't understand and then said goodbye directly.
Lin Anan politely escorted the person out the door and said, "Then I'll wait for news from my sister-in-law. It doesn't matter whether it succeeds or not. Just give me a reply when the time comes."
"Okay, go back."
After returning to the house, the little girl kept circling around Lin Anan, wagging her little tail quickly.
Lin Anan reached out and touched the dog's head, then fed it some food.
Suddenly I felt a little blocked in my chest, so I quickly took the medicine and sat on the sofa to rest for a while.
After I recovered, I went back to my desk and started writing.
Lin Anan always felt that time passed very quickly in the 1970s, and there was never enough time day by day.
Fortunately, she likes quietness and can stay at home all day.
