Chapter 156 Letter
The Wen family received a letter from Nancheng, and the recipient was Wen Zhu.
Wen Zhu opened the letter and saw that it was from Wang Liang.
After exchanging addresses, we only contacted each other once or twice.
Wen Zhu almost forgot about his second brother's former comrade-in-arms.
This is the man who will become a big boss in the clothing manufacturing industry.
"My dear, who is this?"
Jiang Qin asked.
Wen Zhu, "Mom, do you still remember my second brother's comrade-in-arms, Wang Liang?"
Jiang Qin nodded. "Why wouldn't I remember? The noodles we use at home are specially supplied by his relatives! It's only been a short time, how could I possibly forget?"
Wen Zhu smiled and replied, "Mom, there's good news! Brother Wang has been working hard in South City for two years and now owns a garment factory."
When Wen Hong heard about the garment factory, he also became interested. "Really? That young man is really capable."
Speaking of this, Wen Zhu asked, "Dad, has your factory been performing poorly recently?"
Wen Zhu's words were actually quite tactful, and Wen Hong nodded, not hiding anything.
"The factory is about to go out of business. There are many similar factories in South City and the newly opened ones here. Our old factory has long-standing system problems and can hardly pay wages. I guess it will be over soon."
Jiang Qin wasn't worried at all. "Then why don't you just quit that job and work with me."
Wen Hongshen shook his head seriously.
"I have my plans."
Jiang Jiannan adjusted his glasses, his eyes full of smiles, "Dad, you want to emulate the factory in North City and recruit employees to subscribe for shares, right?"
Wen Hong slowed down his reading of the newspaper and glanced at his son. "Yeah, I have this plan."
Although Jiang Qin didn't quite understand, she supported it.
Wen Zhu knew that with his father's vision, how could he not know that the cotton mill had been ill for a long time and could not survive in the long run? So he was waiting here.
"Since we're talking about this, I'll be frank. Here's what I think: the fabrics produced by the cotton mill are actually of good quality, but the styles are a little behind the times. Plus, the various old rules and regulations that have been in place for so many years are difficult to change, which is why we have the current situation. Most importantly, I don't own the mill, so I don't have enough say to make changes.
I've already started to see signs of improvement. I plan to buy shares. Once I own the majority of the shares and have a say, I can lead the people I've trained over the past two years to make some serious changes. From management to production, to styles, to sales channels, everything needs to be replanned.
Now is a great time. If we catch up, we can ride the wave and become a leader."
Wen Zhu nodded as he heard this.
"Dad is right. It just so happens that Brother Wang also said that his clothing factory needs fabric. I can write him a letter and ask what kind of fabric he needs. Once I understand the demand, production will be much more efficient."
The whole family agreed.
Wen Zhu continued, "Dad, after the share subscription is successful, have you ever thought about expanding the cotton mill into clothing manufacturing? After all, in addition to supplying fabrics, you also need to find sales channels. If we can form an industrial chain and then expand into clothing retail, we can build a reputation and create our own brand!"
When Wen Zhu thought about the business model of future generations, she couldn't help but talk about it.
Wen Hong was just listening casually, but the more she listened, the more she felt that what her daughter said was not just casual talk.
He put down the newspaper in his hand and sat up straight. "Tell me in detail. Dad thinks what my daughter said is feasible. Even if it can't be fully implemented now, it can serve as a direction for future development."
Jiang Jiannan also participated in the discussion and felt that the direction the two discussed was very promising.
Several people talked about this matter for a long time. After listening to it, Wen Hong felt very motivated!
"Okay, let's do as we agreed! Tomorrow, no, today I will go to the factory to discuss the stock subscription in advance!" He stood up, put on his shirt, picked up his briefcase and went to the factory.
Jiang Qin poked her head out of the kitchen and said, "Come after you finish eating. It will be ready soon!"
"No, I'm not eating. Tomorrow a lot of workers will hear about the layoffs, and there will definitely be a commotion. People will come to demand their wages, too. I'm going to go and discuss things today. You guys eat, no need to wait for me."
Wen Hong called the key personnel he had trained in the past two years, asked them to wait outside, and knocked on the door of Director Wu's office.
"Come in."
Director Wu sat dejectedly in a chair, his eyes haggard. Tomorrow was the agreed payday, but the factory had no money.
"Is that you, Hongzi? Come and sit down. I didn't even have time to make tea because of this mess. Please don't be offended."
Wen Hong sat down and handed Director Wu a bottle of soda.
He smiled and said, "My big brother, times change. Sometimes, it doesn't matter if there is no water. Young people like to drink soda now. You should try it too."
Director Wu managed a rare smile. "Yes, times have changed."
Wen Hong told Director Wu about his share subscription. Director Wu was stunned at first, but then he looked relieved. "I knew you were willing to stay in this old factory. You definitely don't want to be a sales manager. Tell me more about it, and I'll definitely help you get it done."
......
Two hours later, Wen Hong came out of the factory director's office.
"How is it, Director Wen?"
"Yeah? How did the talk go? Is there any hope for our relationship?"
A smile appeared on Wen Hong's serious face.
The voice was calm and steady, "It's done."
Wen Hong made arrangements for the workers' cooperation in tomorrow's work and then left.
The next day, Wen Zhu was worried, so she accompanied her father to the factory. She said hello to her brother before leaving. When she found something wrong, she quickly called the police and asked the public security bureau to help maintain order.
So that his father wouldn't get beaten.
After all, not everyone can accept the fact that their iron rice bowl is gone. At this time, if his father comes out to be the first to subscribe to shares, he will definitely be angered by some indiscriminate and angry workers.
She met Qian Jingsheng who happened to be coming to her house to deliver something, and he also planned to go with her.
Wen Zhu didn't refuse. After all, he had high martial arts skills, and with him around, he always felt safe. There was strength in numbers, and he could also protect his father.
As Wen Zhu expected, although some people had agreed to subscribe to shares and planned to make a big move after Director Wu told them about the factory's bankruptcy, there were always some employees who were unwilling to accept the change, and they had already started making trouble!
When there are too many people, chaos begins to occur.
Wen Zhu always paid attention to the people around her father, but after all, he was standing at the front stage, and it was difficult for her, an outsider, to go up, so she could only watch from below.
"Why would you say you're just giving me compensation? This job is for life. After I'm done, my son, daughter, and grandchildren can all continue to work as workers! You're robbing me of my future job by saying this! If you don't let me live, I'll fight you to the death!"
As he said that, he picked up a small stool and wanted to throw it at Wen Hong who was standing in front of the microphone in the front row.
