Yan Xiaonan, Yi Genjin, and Sheng Lijuan held a brief meeting in the factory director's office, formally signed the contract, and invested millions of yuan to boldly create a new era for the garment factory.
First, the name of the garment factory was changed to Beijing Garment Manufacturing Co., Ltd., with Yi Genjin serving as the factory manager and Sheng Lijuan overseeing the finance department.
The bloated departments were abolished, and all staff members in each department were re-evaluated. Those who slacked off were demoted to the production workshop.
Similarly, the personnel structure diagram in the workshop needs to be drawn up as soon as possible, and we also need to recruit some fashion designers, and even male and female models, through newspaper advertisements.
Shen Shaohua is now experiencing both pain and pleasure. She has become a brick in Yan Xiaonan's hand, to be moved wherever needed. All the heads of each department must pass her assessment, and as for the employees below, she can make decisions based on their own will.
Xu Da then targeted security personnel, implementing a mentorship system where experienced staff trained new ones. Within a month, he had cultivated a group of capable individuals who maintained strict control over every important location in the garment factory.
In Xu Da's mind, the more capable Yan Xiaonan was, the higher his own status would be. So he pedaled his bicycle at the speed of a motorcycle, tirelessly working back and forth.
When Tang Jianjun learned that Nannan had contracted another garment factory, he sighed deeply. His daughter had entered a treasure trove but returned empty-handed; she was utterly foolish.
Following Yan Xiaonan's idea, Yi Genjin found a group of odd-job decorators to paint all the walls and floors in the factory and draw area lines.
The process was posted in each area. This area is for receiving garment drawings, and this area is for reviewing drawings. The sample making room, in particular, was spacious and bright.
You should know that Yan Xiaonan has a lot of clothes in her space. Any one of them could become a fashion trendsetter in this era, so the space for sampling and pattern making must be large.
The cutting department, sewing department, buttonhole and button-making department, ironing department, quality department, logistics department, warehouse, and so on, all need to be rearranged according to the production process, instead of being scattered like before.
The sewing machines, sewing machines, flatbed sewing machines, overlock machines, and vacuum ironing tables are arranged in an orderly manner, and the auxiliary materials are also arranged in a categorized order with very clear labels to prevent misuse.
They even spent a lot of money to import an automatic sewing system, which uses industrial cameras and electronic computers for monitoring. It can automatically identify the pattern of the cut pieces, transmit them, and perform automatic classification control.
There must be strict calculation standards for material feeding, discharging, and requisitioning. It is important to know that this part has the most serious losses, so the warehouse has become the key area for reform.
The warehouse, which used to be a lucrative place in the garment factory, has now become a backwater, while the once-tough production workshop has been transformed into a money-making paradise.
Yan Xiaonan implemented a piece-rate system, setting a monthly quota for each person, and then paying for any amount exceeding that quota based on piecework.
Finally, Yan Xiaonan also designed the clothing logo. All clothing produced by Beijing Garment Manufacturing Co., Ltd. will have this logo. For this purpose, a logo production workshop was set up to produce anti-counterfeiting logos containing production codes.
That evening, Yan Xiaonan entered the space and carefully searched the supermarket, looking for some ordinary suits and shirts, as well as other uniforms.
The uniforms of the waiters, supervisors, greeters, chefs, musicians, bartenders, beauty salon staff, and of course, bathrobes for the hot spring bath were all picked out.
She threw all the clothes to Cuihua, who looked at the clothes that seemed colorful yet dignified and elegant, not understanding what Nannan meant.
"Mom, look, the club is about to open, so the style of the clothing needs to be finalized. Some of these clothes are quite avant-garde. See if you can make some changes, and then we can officially start construction."
Cuihua was very supportive of her daughter's career. She spent two days altering some of the clothes, changing the cheongsams for greeting guests to have short tops and long skirts, similar to clothes from the Republican era.
The supervisors' and managers' clothes don't need much alteration; just different colors and name tags will suffice. All the women's skirts in the bars and concert halls will be changed to trousers.
The girls at the beauty salon and hair salon were the prettiest, all wearing pink lace suits. As for the clothes at the hot spring, Cuihua said that this was the best, and she couldn't change many of the styles.
The machines in the garment factory started running, first sorting out the stocked fabrics one by one, dyeing what needed to be dyed, and cutting what needed to be cut.
All the tablecloths and curtains in the club, as well as the duvet covers and sheets in the suites, have begun to be processed. As for the money, half of the funds from the government, as well as the funds from Ye Chenming and Bei Nan, have already been secured.
A group of people were assigned to tailor uniforms for all the staff in the club. This was a huge project, and although it was done in batches, it still took more than half a month for several hundred people.
Cuihua has been hired by Yan Xiaonan as a designer for the clothing factory. She has taken out all the clothes in the inventory, adjusted the waist of the white shirts to make them work clothes, and changed the black pants into straight-leg pants. All that is needed is to remove the seams and re-cut them.
In August, Yan Xiaonan finally got the result she wanted. Ye Ren had indeed negotiated the Type 78 military uniforms that the army, navy, and air force would soon be replaced with. The main features were expanding the application range of chemical fiber materials, improving the clothing manufacturing process, and reducing the burden on individual soldiers.
From design to cutting, from sewing to ironing, shaping, packaging, and inspection, every step of the process must be rigorous and precise, without the slightest error.
Ye Ren thoughtfully invited more than a dozen retired veterans who specialized in making military uniforms to serve as technical advisors. They carefully explained and meticulously guided him on everything from receiving fabrics from the military textile department to cutting and pattern making, and from sewing to ironing.
Yan Xiaonan emptied out a large warehouse in the garment factory and had it renovated. It will become a military uniform manufacturing workshop, and unauthorized personnel are prohibited from entering.
To this end, she spent over 100,000 yuan to import a more advanced automatic sewing system and appointed Yi Genjin as the main person in charge of military uniform production.
A large number of the factory's hardworking, skilled veteran employees were re-evaluated, and after passing the political review, they were officially transferred to the military uniform manufacturing workshop.
Following the veteran's guidance, Yan Xiaonan also ordered other machinery and equipment specifically for making military uniforms. As the saying goes, "A skilled craftsman must first sharpen his tools," and these investments were necessary.
The veteran was very satisfied with Yan Xiaonan's attention to them, his dedication to providing technical guidance to these employees, and his signing of confidentiality agreements, along with a one-level increase in salary and benefits.
