"Go check it out." Wang Mingjun fiddled with the wine glass in his hand and pursed his lips.
"Yes, Brother Jun." The man responded and turned around and walked out of the restaurant with a fierce look in his eyes. He dared to ruin their good thing. This fat man didn't even know how to write the word death.
A few days later, at noon, under the scorching sun, the man had a thorough understanding of Zhou Yi's situation and was reporting it to Wang Mingjun one by one.
No. 108 Wenming Road at the same time.
All the decoration materials for the Meiyi Clothing Store have been delivered and construction has started this morning. In this day and age, workers have to be provided with meals while working. There are a total of 6 people including the workers and the contractor.
At this time, Zhou Yi had no idea that she had been targeted. She took Yun Xiaoyun to the city early in the morning, went to the supply and marketing cooperative to prepare today's vegetables and meat, and then went to the small Western-style building to prepare lunch and brought it to the workers.
The workers were very excited when they saw the food in the lunch boxes. There were two meats and one vegetable. In that era, this was the best food package.
Zhou Yi asked Yunfeng to go back to the small western-style building for a while. He told the foreman something and turned around to leave with them.
In the small Western-style building, Zhou Yi asked Yunfeng to finish his meal first.
After dinner, Zhou Yi and Yun Feng sat under the corridor in the yard and talked about the recent situation of Meiyi Clothing. More than half of the third batch of goods had been sold. Next, the original styles needed to be reduced in quantity and new styles added. In addition, enough styles had to be designed for the specialty store to showcase the characteristics of Meiyi.
Zhou Yi has already drawn up the styles that need to be added to the distribution in the past few days and handed them to Yunfeng to arrange at the garment factory. He also reminded him to keep a close eye on the decoration, but not to slack off on the distributor side either, as the market trend is very important. If he is too busy, he suggested that Yunfeng look for an assistant.
She suggested installing a telephone in the store and asked Yunfeng to go and find out how to operate the communications system in a few days.
Then he took out a finished poster and gave it to Yunfeng, asking him to go to the printing factory to enlarge it one-to-one and print a giant poster to be placed outside the shop. It would serve as a screen for decoration and also play a certain publicity role.
Yunfeng took the poster and carefully wrote down everything Zhou Yi said. Now was the time for him to show his ability. He was very careful in his work and would often think about some issues that would arise in the future.
"Girl, I'll go to the garment factory first to arrange the samples of the new styles, and then go to the distributor to have a look. We'll continue our conversation when I come back later." Yunfeng was full of action.
"Okay, Brother Feng, thank you for your hard work during this period." Zhou Yi smiled.
"Hey, it's not hard at all. I'm very happy." Yunfeng also smiled and walked out of the yard.
Zhou Yi is also under great pressure. Designing a variety of styles for the specialty store is not difficult for her.
The difficulty lies in how to create momentum after the opening of the Meiyi Clothing Store. This problem has been bothering her for several days. She has been tapping her fingers on the small square table, thinking about how to solve this problem.
In this era, placing advertisements in newspapers and printing flyers are the best and only promotional methods, but Meiyi Clothing’s pricing is relatively high, and it is currently only in the stage of exploring the market and customer base.
The brand has not yet established loyal customers, and has not yet entered the circle of upper-class wives.
Zhou Yi has always wanted to add the Meiyi haute couture series, but he is currently lacking an opportunity, an opportunity to open up the haute couture market.
The circle of upper-class ladies is obviously the core customer group of the haute couture series, and if the haute couture series is not developed, it will be difficult for the Meiyi clothing store to survive.
Even if there is a certain group of purchasing customers, in the long run, the barriers established by the brand are still there, and how can we overcome them?
The best way is to make Meiyi’s design IP famous. This will not only serve as a stepping stone for the haute couture series, but also push Meiyi’s ready-to-wear clothing to a higher level.
But now we lack such an opportunity.
Zhou Yi really didn’t have any good ideas at the moment, so he decided to go out for a walk and talk to Xu Ming. Maybe he could give him some advice.
She asked Yun Xiaoyun whether she wanted to go to the garment factory together or keep the small villa.
Yun Xiaoyun thought about it and felt that her sister-in-law must be busy with something and she couldn't help much, so she stayed to prepare the ingredients for the workers' dinner.
I have to say that Zhou Yi is really lucky. This trip to the garment factory is indeed her chance again.
Half an hour later, Zhou Yi came to Xu Ming's office.
"Xiao Zhou, why are you here? Yunfeng just left." Xu Ming sat on the sofa opposite Zhou Yi with a smile.
"Come and see Uncle Xu and chat for a while. It won't take up too much of your time, right?" Zhou Yi smiled.
"No problem. What do you want to talk about?" Xu Ming didn't think that Zhou Yi would come to him specifically to chat.
"It's like this, Uncle Xu, you know that the Meiyi store has started to be renovated. There are some problems that have been bothering me for many days. I wanted to come and talk to you to see if you have any good suggestions." Zhou Yi picked up the teapot familiarly, poured a cup of tea for Xu Ming, and also poured a cup for himself.
After frequent interactions during this period, the two have become friends who are no longer just polite friends.
"Oh? Are there any questions that can stump you, Xiao Zhou? I'd really like to listen carefully." Xu Ming became interested.
Zhou Yi briefly told Xu Ming about his ideas on the establishment of the Meiyi brand and the haute couture series, as well as the current difficulties.
After listening to this, Xu Ming was silent for a moment, then he stood up, walked to his desk, opened the drawer, and took out a document.
After standing there and thinking for a while, he took it and handed it to Zhou Yi, saying, "This is the information about the National Fashion Design Competition that I received these two days. Take a look at it, it might be useful to you."
"National Fashion Contest?" Zhou Yi took the document, opened it quickly and flipped through it. The more he read, the brighter the smile on his face became.
Isn’t this the best opportunity to establish Meiyi Design IP?
"Xiao Zhou, our garment factory can recommend two places for this national fashion designer competition. One of the places has been taken. Are you interested in the other one?" Xu Ming sat down again, took a sip of tea, a smile on his face, and looked at Zhou Yi with interest.
"Uncle Xu, you're asking even though you already know the answer. I'm really interested. Meiyi really needs this opportunity right now. But, I'm not an employee of the garment factory. Will this be difficult for you?"
Zhou Yi put down the documents and looked at Xu Ming seriously. Although Meiyi really needed such an opportunity now, she would not do anything that would embarrass her friend.
"What's the problem? We're supposed to recommend potential companies in Jinghai to participate. This quota is given to garment factories, but it's not limited to garment factory employees. It's just recommended by the garment factory."
Xu Ming knew Zhou Yi's concerns. Although there were certain difficulties, it was not a big problem. He also believed that Zhou Yi had the ability to win the game.
Zhou Yi felt relieved after hearing what Xu Ming said.
The two chatted about some rules and precautions of the competition.
"Uncle Xu, who is the other candidate?" Zhou Yi suddenly became interested when he thought that the other spot had already been filled. After all, a fashion designer in this era must have outstanding character and talent.
"You'll know when the time comes!" Xu Ming smiled smugly and kept the secret.
