Chapter 638 Perfect Planning
Here we come!
Mr. He accompanied some leaders and staff in charge of the Guangzhou Trade Fair to watch the rehearsal.
Everyone fell silent instantly, no longer daring to discuss anything, and looked towards the stage.
Backstage, twenty models were already dressed and lined up, waiting to go on stage.
Jiang Xia is the planner of this fashion show, and also serves as the host and commentator.
She was telling the models one by one when to go on stage and what clothes to change into when they returned backstage.
Zhang Fuyan and another female worker served as her assistants, both of them holding detailed show procedures, notebooks and pens.
The two listened carefully to the show process, and wrote down Jiang Xia's instructions in their notebooks, checking for omissions and making sure everything went smoothly.
Jiang Xia had explained all this to the model in Beijing, even this morning, and had repeated it several times.
After explaining the precautions to the model, Jiang Xia instructed the volunteers and staff of the photography team to do the photo taking.
"Every outfit should be photographed on the catwalk."
"Okay!" the staff responded loudly.
"Develop the photos you take as soon as possible, pick out the ones with the best results, develop more, and then make an album for customers to refer to when they place an order."
In fact, it would be better to make it into a picture album, but the cost of a picture album is a bit high, and it requires design, so there is not enough time to prepare.
"Okay." The voice was loud! "Put the model number on the corner of each photo. Tops, bottoms, shoes, bags, hats, accessories, etc. Don't leave anything out!"
"Okay!" They said in unison! After Jiang Xia finished explaining everything, he glanced at his watch and said, "Time's up! Are you all ready?"
“Ready!”
"I'll go on stage first, and you guys do what I just said!"
Zhang Fuyan and the models all nodded: "Okay!"
Jiang Xia then walked out and came to the microphone: "Dear guests, dear friends..."
…
The first rehearsal took more than an hour.
The whole audience was silent for more than an hour.
Those who had said that the attempt to draw a tiger ended up with a dog were silent. After the show, they turned around and went to their leaders as soon as possible! "Leader, I think it's a good idea to hold a fashion show! It will definitely increase the turnover! Our No. 6 National Cotton Mill also wants to participate in the fashion show. Anyway, the T stage has been built! After their six factories have finished the show, we will hold it. Can you help our factory apply to the superiors? I dare to issue a military order! By holding a fashion show, I will definitely exceed the task of this Guangzhou Fair!"
"Leader, please help me apply to our superiors so that our handbag factory can cooperate with the garment factory to hold a fashion show!"
…
On the catwalk, a new round of fashion shows begins.
This is a men's wear show.
Male models began to take to the stage, showing off clothes from the second men's clothing factory.
But many factory managers didn’t bother to watch. From the first factory’s show, they saw the potential business opportunities in this show! Huge business opportunities! Everyone went to their leaders to fight for the opportunity.
There are not only garment factories, but also shoe factories, luggage and leather factories, and jewelry factories.
When the models came out, some of them were wearing bags, shoes, belts, jewelry, hats, scarves, silk scarves and the like.
The key is that all the accessories are on the ordering information! Several factories are involved in a fashion show.
This fashion show is so perfectly planned and such a bargain!
…
The factory director saw the business opportunity and went to find his team leader, who then went to find his superior, who then went to find his superior, and finally found Mr. He.
A leader said to Mr. He, "Mr. He, why don't you ask Comrade Xiao Xia to help a few more factories plan a fashion show?"
Mr. He waved his hand and said, "Xiao Xia is not available now. She has other exhibitions to be responsible for and has no time to help other factories with these. If any of you want to go on stage for a fashion show, you can submit a plan for me to see. If the plan is good and the preparation is good, I will approve it. The plan must be ready by tomorrow night at the latest. If you don't understand, you can ask Director Qiu and Director He in Jing City. And you don't need to go to Comrade Xiao Xia. She is really too busy."
Mr. He was afraid that they would go to find Jiang Xia one by one, so he gave them some warning in advance to prevent them from disturbing Jiang Xia.
The catwalk has been set up. If more garment factories can go on the catwalk to show their talents, it will indeed increase the transaction rate of the Guangzhou Trade Fair.
Mr. He also wanted Jiang Xia to help them make a plan, but this was not practical, so he directly helped Jiang Xia reject them.
Mr. He knew that it was not easy to plan a fashion show.
First, you have to understand all the styles of clothes in the garment factory, and then understand all the accessories, clothes, shoes, socks and accessories. The workload alone for matching is very heavy.
Then we need to select models, let them try on clothes, and do makeup for them.
Preparation of ordering information and display of the booth must be kept up with.
It is true that a quarter of an hour on stage is the result of a month of hard work off stage.
These tasks cannot be completed in a day or two.
"This catwalk is a stage for us to showcase the charm of our Chinese clothing brands to our friends around the world. If you don't do well, we won't approve your application." Mr. He gave everyone a heads-up.
This concerns the reputation of China. We must not bring shame upon the country.
The factory managers still want to give it a try.
The Guangzhou Fair lasts for almost a month, so they can make a final push in the last few days! The six fashion show rehearsals ended at around 7pm.
This still speeds up the process and eliminates the explanation process, giving customers enough time to place orders tomorrow.
All the leaders had smiles on their faces when they left, and everyone was looking forward to the fashion show tomorrow night.
The next day, Jiang Xia and Zhou Chenglei arrived at the exhibition hall at 7:45.
Zhou Chenglei went directly to the shipyard area.
Just like last time, Jiang Xia and Zhang Fuyan stood at the entrance waiting for the arrival of foreign guests.
There were also several volunteers and staff at the entrance.
In addition to volunteers, some manufacturers also hire their own translators.
These translators learned from Jiangxia's first experience at the Guangzhou Trade Fair and went directly to the exit to solicit customers. Of course, they were taught to do so by the factory staff.
Jiang Xia created a trading myth at last year's Autumn Harvest Fair, and many factories hired translators who followed her example.
Wen Wan is still one of them.
Wen Wan also worked as a translator for several clothing factories this time, with a base salary plus commission.
As a student at Beijing University of Foreign Studies, she also found part-time jobs in several factories.
Not only did she find part-time jobs in several factories, she also invited several classmates in the department who were good at foreign languages to work part-time to accumulate experience and connections.
Unlike Jiang Xia at the beginning, he kept the lucrative jobs hidden from her and didn't introduce any to her even though he knew she was good at foreign languages.
Wen Wan glanced at Jiang Xia. She must make more money this time to buy a house, a shop, and a courtyard house in Beijing in the future.
Wen Wan is very confident that she can make a lot of money this time because she has several classmates to help her make money.
Sorry, there is only one chapter tonight. It’s too late. I’ll make it up tomorrow morning.
