Seeing that he wanted to ask but didn't dare, Xu Xiangyang explained, "It's too chaotic right now. There's no guarantee that something might go wrong when delivering something."
"Even if you give gifts on a regular basis, people will think you have ulterior motives, and it will draw attention to you, which is even worse."
Qian Wenqing nodded in understanding and didn't think about it any further.
The holidays passed quickly, and Xu Xiangyang started to arrange for external orders for the garment factory, and he became busy all of a sudden.
He had to live in the factory again. Although it didn't take long to commute back and forth, he didn't want to go through the hassle.
This makes work more convenient, as everyone lives in the factory. The empty offices have now been converted into dormitories for everyone to live in.
Except for Xu Xiangyang, everyone who works overtime in the factory lives in a dormitory.
He has too many secrets, and he has to use the space from time to time, which is inconvenient with too many people.
If someone finds out, he won't be able to explain it.
You can't be optimistic about this kind of thing, after all, most people can't understand it.
Spring of 1969.
It’s just April and we’ve started wearing thinner cotton jackets.
In fact, with temperatures like those in Northeast China, spring usually doesn't come until around May.
June is summer, so spring clothes don’t sell as well as autumn clothes, and there are more orders.
Most people make do with their spring clothes by using clothes from autumn or last year.
After all, spring is short, and people rarely buy clothes in spring unless they need new clothes.
This year's spring clothes are just as Xiangyang expected, not very good.
Fortunately, they received orders from other provinces, so the business was doing OK. At least they weren't losing money, just a little less profit.
Xu Xiangyang was also thinking about making a fortune from summer clothes.
He studied the design drawings together with the person in charge of the design, including Guan Chunying.
But this girl treated him badly, her nose was not a nose and her face was not a face.
Xu Xiangyang thought about it and guessed it was because he had rejected someone before.
But he couldn't be perfunctory about this matter. He had to refuse clearly when he had to.
"Director Xu, aren't these clothes a bit too bold?" Director Chen looked at the design drawing and felt a little uneasy.
After all, everyone still remembers what happened in previous years, and they are also used to the current conservatism. So when they encounter such a design drawing for a while, they are really a little unsure.
Xu Xiangyang waved his hand before he could say anything.
Guan Chunying said sarcastically, "Director Xu, my design drawings were similar to this before, so why were they rejected? Now you're bringing me drawings like this again, do you have something against me?"
In fact, she had already figured out what happened in the past, and it was all in the past.
But she felt uncomfortable these two days, and Xu Xiangyang was still unwilling to take the initiative even though she was so proactive.
So, she wanted to find fault.
Xu Xiangyang glanced at her calmly, then turned to Director Chen and said, "I've thought about this. The clothes in Shanghai are all designed like this, so there shouldn't be any problem."
"Besides, our main target audience is young people. Older people might be hesitant, but young people won't. So there's no need to worry too much about performance. It should be fine."
In fact, this was something Xu Xiangyang had inquired about before. The rules in Shanghai were stricter in the first two years.
Now that the hype has almost died down, everything has returned to normal.
The only difference is that the skirt will not exceed the calf and the sleeves will not reach the shoulders.
This style is not too avant-garde, but relatively conservative.
However, the colors will not be very bright or bright, dark or light colors will be the mainstream.
Director Chen couldn't help but nod. This is indeed a good idea. Who doesn't like to dress nicely? Especially young women.
Guan Chunying, who was standing by, was stunned when she saw that he ignored her. She felt extremely embarrassed.
If Xu Xiangyang hadn't been considering Guan Qilin, he would have sent this guy somewhere else long ago.
She has nothing to do all day and is the best at arguing. She should be asked to work at the Municipal Construction Committee.
Generally speaking, they have made up their minds this time. The clothing problem has been solved, and the next step is to open up the market.
Xu Xiangyang asked the workshop to make a few samples, checked the quality, and then sent someone to take the order.
Of course they have to act quickly, otherwise if all the major garment factories do the same thing, they will suffer.
Maybe it was because of the good innovation this time, the orders increased several times in one month.
Xu Xiangyang quickly contacted the textile factory and demanded that the fabric be supplied.
Although we have made arrangements in advance and paid a deposit, the orders have doubled at this time. Who knows if we can supply them?
Now, trouble is coming.
Xu Xiangyang picked up the phone and heard the person on the other end stating the facts, and then heard something like "I'm sorry".
He sneered and said, "We've been working together for a year, right? You're so blatantly raising the price against me. Do you think you're the only textile factory in the world?"
That’s right, this time the call was from the textile factory.
Not only do they raise the price, but they also want to postpone the deadline.
The person on the other side obviously didn't expect him to say that, and was embarrassed for a moment.
Xu Xiangyang said, "No matter what, we've already finalized the previous order. If you can't complete it, the consequences are clear. I won't take any additional orders. Complete the previous ones on schedule."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
What else to say?
It's obvious that the garment factory needs fabric, so they just raise the price?
Is this how business dealings over the past year have defrauded me?
Xu Xiangyang doesn't care what their difficulties are. Since they are causing trouble at this critical juncture, it's useless to say anything.
Just as he said, there are plenty of textile factories and people who want to cooperate.
He flipped through his notebook and made a phone call.
"Hello, is this Yuncheng Textile Factory No. 1?"
…
The fabric ordering went smoothly, even though he expedited the process. However, since they were a large manufacturer, they were worried that there wouldn't be enough orders.
After hanging up the phone, Guan Qilin walked into the room and asked as soon as he entered the door: "Director Xu, the textile factory over there called me, what's going on?"
He just received a call from the textile factory calling Xu Xiangyang.
They thought Xu Xiangyang hung up the phone because he was angry, but they didn't think any textile factory would accept the order.
Besides, how can you finish it in one month?
Xu Xiangyang replied calmly, "Nothing, they don't want to cooperate anymore. I contacted Yuncheng Factory No. 1, they have stock there, and I can pick it up tomorrow."
Although Yuncheng takes seven or eight days to get from here, they have the advantage of having goods!
If it really doesn't work, he will go to the world on the other side of the space. He can't let the order go uncompleted.
At that time, it will not only be a matter of losing orders, but also reputation.
If they can’t even complete orders on time, who can trust them?
When Guan Qilin heard that the factory had changed, he wanted to say something, but when he remembered the tone of the man just now, he felt that the change was a good thing.
We are all working for the public. It is really too much to make things difficult for people. Just change it!
