"hiss."
Factory Director Li gasped upon hearing Ye Beiping's words, but upon reflection, he realized that they were indeed completely unaware of the matter.
Zhang Ming pointed at Ye Beiping with trembling fingers, stammering "you" for a long time without being able to utter a complete sentence.
Ye Beiping sneered, picked up his backpack, and prepared to leave.
"Director Li, Director Zhang, think carefully about whether China's garment industry has changed much in the past thirty years. The economy has opened up, but you're still wearing those old clothes and carrying out those outdated ideas. When foreign garment manufacturers enter the market in the future, will you still be able to survive?"
After saying that, he left the factory manager's office.
Factory Director Li immediately glared at Zhang Ming with annoyance, then took a step to chase after Ye Beiping.
He didn't know why he was chasing after him; he just felt that if he let the young man in front of him leave, he would definitely regret it.
Finally, he caught up with Ye Beiping at the stairwell.
Because of his age, Director Li grabbed his arm, took a few deep breaths, and said breathlessly, "Young man, wait a moment, don't rush off."
"That's not what Director Zhang meant..."
"Oh?" Ye Beiping raised an eyebrow and interrupted, "Director Li, that's not what Director Zhang meant. Then what did he mean?"
Actually, he was somewhat surprised to see Factory Director Li chasing after him.
When he chose the garment factory, he didn't do any research, and he didn't have much access to information on that.
You can just find any manufacturer that's neither too big nor too small.
The main reason is that Zhang Ming's words were too infuriating. Not only did he slander the drawings he made to his face, but he also carried that kind of heavy old-fashioned thinking. Even if we cooperate in the future, we will probably keep arguing.
Factory Director Li was momentarily speechless.
"Hehe, Director Li, to be honest, I originally planned to order 100 pieces of each style of clothing first. I have a total of 100 styles of clothing, which is equivalent to 1,000 pieces. This is just the beginning."
Ye Beiping remained calm, but his tone was slightly displeased with Zhang Ming: "But Director Zhang said that the things I spend money on would make me look foolish if I wore them out, so I don't think this cooperation needs to continue."
Upon hearing that it was a thousand pieces of clothing, Factory Director Li became even more anxious.
This order volume is already quite large for a factory of their size.
After thinking for a moment, Director Li gritted his teeth and said, "Can you wait a few minutes? Just a few minutes is fine."
He paused for a moment, then turned back, about to leave, and asked, "Young man, what's your name? I was so excited when I saw the picture that I forgot to ask."
"Ye Beiping".
"Okay, Beiping, wait for me for two minutes, just two minutes." With that, Director Li immediately ran back to his office.
It seems they're trying to persuade Zhang Ming to change his mind.
Ye Beiping wasn't in a hurry. Looking down from the building at the factory across the street, he saw some uniformed workers moving back and forth.
Two trucks were parked not far away, presumably factory trucks.
Sure enough, two minutes later, Director Li pulled Ye Beiping back into the director's office.
"Beiping, I've already spoken with Director Zhang. We'll expedite the pattern making and production of a thousand garments, though it might take a little longer," Factory Manager Li explained somewhat apologetically.
Ye Beiping could understand this.
After all, the current clothing production equipment is not as advanced as in the previous life, so it's acceptable to take a little longer.
"Didn't Director Zhang say it would be a laughing stock? He actually agreed?"
In fact, Ye Beiping had already made up his mind at this point: he wanted to settle things as soon as possible to avoid disputes with other factories later.
Finding a like-minded factory manager is just nonsense.
Within the entire state-owned factory system, there are very few that can cooperate with individual businesses. It is estimated that Qiaosi Garment Factory has indeed encountered difficulties, which is why Director Li and Director Zhang in front of him are willing to bow their heads.
"Yes, we agree. What's with all this talk about making a fool of ourselves? We're only responsible for production, not sales. He's just worrying unnecessarily," Factory Director Li said with a laugh.
Ye Beiping had already made a joke and wouldn't hold it against him. He took the blueprints out again and placed them on the table, saying, "These blueprints were just something I drew on the spot. I'm not a professional in this field, so I'll need Director Zhang to redraw them. Also, I don't really know what kind of material to use, but the only requirement is that the fabric can't look too rough."
“This…” Zhang Ming was immediately stumped.
