"Very good." Director Jia praised the clothes without reservation after looking at them.
This outfit looks nice, and it's a white shirt, which is popular with women these days.
Of course, green and dark blue are also primary color choices.
Black and gray clothes are mostly worn by older people.
Girls around thirty years old, and even teenagers, generally prefer white as their main color; it's a color that's hard to fault.
These clothes are suitable for both work and school, or for going out.
Nowadays, which woman doesn't have a white shirt in her wardrobe?
Leather shoes and a white shirt are always a favorite among women.
Of course, the dress was very popular a couple of years ago, but unfortunately no one dares to wear it anymore.
Seeing that he seemed satisfied, Xu Xiangyang said, "Director Jia, our factory's garments are also quite good. If you agree, we'll sign a few more orders."
The more the better!
He knew that if he could take over this department store, everything else would be much easier!
Director Jia hesitated for a moment, but looking at the clothes in his hand, he felt he didn't want to miss out.
He's been in this business for three years now, so he knows exactly what kind of ready-to-wear clothes sell well; you could say he has a keen eye.
After thinking for a moment, he gritted his teeth and said, "Director Xu, what about the price?"
The two discussed the price, and Xu Xiangyang managed to control it well, neither raising the price nor making any unfounded claims.
Finally, the two finalized the price, and Director Jia ordered a total of 500 ready-made garments.
Of course, it has to be completed within a month, otherwise they won't be able to stock the clothes for the changing seasons, and who will come to buy clothes?
Xu Xiangyang left the department store satisfied, holding the order and the deposit.
He hadn't told the factory about these clothes; he'd have to bring it up when he got back.
After driving back to the garment factory, he immediately went to a meeting.
Guan Qilin frowned upon hearing the news of the meeting. He then recalled an unresolved issue from the morning's meeting.
When he arrived at the conference room, several people were already seated.
The people who came were all from management; of course, there was no need for the logistics department to attend.
When Xu Xiangyang saw him arrive, he said, "Everyone is here, so let me explain why I called you all here for this meeting."
As he spoke, he placed the order and the clothes on the table. "These are the orders I received this morning at the East City Department Store, a total of five hundred pieces."
Five hundred pieces isn't much; their scattered orders have now reached over a thousand pieces.
But from what he said, it was a store order for ready-made clothes, which was a huge order!
A hint of surprise flashed in Guan Qilin's eyes. Although he disliked Xu Xiangyang, he put aside his prejudices when it came to the factory's interests.
"Director Xu, is this true? I went there last time and was turned away; they didn't even give me an order for ten pieces." Wang Qin said in surprise, her admiration for Xu Xiangyang growing even stronger.
Don't let their youth fool you, their business skills are far superior to theirs. They secured an order for 500 items in just one trip!
Xu Xiangyang didn't answer, but continued, "These 500 orders aren't for finished garments from the factory. Take a look at the patterns and clothes on the table. These orders all require these clothes. Take a look first."
Not ready-made garments from a factory?
The others exchanged glances, then looked at the clothes and blueprints on the table.
Lin Xuexian, the deputy director of the workshop, picked up the blueprints and looked at them. After looking at them for a while, he immediately asked, "Director Xu, is this really going to work?"
The main reason was that the clothes were too avant-garde, so he felt it was inappropriate.
And what if people don't want these clothes after they're made?
Five hundred pieces may not seem like much, but if you make them and then throw them away, it'll still cost a lot of money!
Seeing that the others also seemed uncertain, Xu Xiangyang said, "Isn't it clearly written on the order? And the deposit has already been collected."
He came to the meeting today to say that since it's not his factory, he doesn't have the right to act unilaterally.
Guan Qilin glanced at the clothes and thought they were quite good, so he said, "Since Factory Director Xu thinks there's no problem, then let's get them done as soon as possible. A month may not seem like much time, but we have other orders to fulfill."
These clothes look quite fashionable, but to him, who has seen the world, they're just so-so. Anyway, they're much better looking than the clothes the factory makes now.
Guan Chunying's previous drawings were indeed better looking, but the waist was too tight, and the neckline was low and exposed her arms.
Even if no one says anything, he still thinks it's not right.
Xu Xiangyang was surprised that he agreed and seemed to have no objections at all. Logically, if someone disliked him, they should also dislike what he did.
Why did they agree so easily? That's really strange.
However, when it comes to the factory's interests, he doesn't think too much; he just provides support to save everyone's time.
"Since there are no problems, let's do as Director Guan said and start production as soon as possible." He gave the instructions, then turned and left.
Although Lin Xuexian was curious about the origin of these blueprints, he didn't ask further. As long as it brought benefits to the factory, everyone would do their best.
Now that there are more orders, the rest of the work will be much easier.
As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. Once you get past the beginning, what difficulties can there be?
After everyone else left, Guan Qilin arrived at the door of Xu Xiangyang's office.
Xu Xiangyang heard the knocking, looked up, and was surprised to see it was him.
"Oh, Director Guan, come in and have a seat." He got up and led the man to the sofa.
The two sat down, and Guan Qilin looked around the office.
This office doesn't have much stuff. Besides a small bookshelf, there's just a desk and chair, a sofa and coffee table set—that's standard office equipment.
Of course, this is just the standard setup for the factory manager's office. Managers like workshop directors don't have sofas or anything like that; they only have desks and chairs.
Aside from these, Xu Xiangyang's office only had a mirror embedded in the wall by the door and a washstand.
Compared to this office, Guan Qilin's office is better, with calligraphy on the walls and some landscape paintings.
There are quite a few decorative items, including flower pots.
A complex look flashed in his eyes upon seeing this.
Seeing that he hadn't spoken when he came in, Xu Xiangyang asked, "Director Guan, what brings you here?"
Although I don't know why this person is behaving so strangely, I still have to ask the questions that need to be asked.
He still has work to do; he can't just take this order from the department store. He'll have to go look at other places later.
Guan Qilin pursed his lips and slowly said, "Director Xu, I used to think you were very young, just a high school student, and lacked experience, so you weren't qualified for this position."
"But I apologize to you for my previous thoughts; I was short-sighted."
His previous ideas were indeed very biased, and he thought that education and experience were very important.
But after this incident, he felt very ashamed.
It's not because of these few hundred orders of ready-made clothing, but something else.
