My fourth brother’s wife told me that I could select some outstanding and potential students during class, reach cooperation in advance, and let them come to the company for internship.
The internship process can share my pressure and allow me to see the company's environment and development prospects earlier, which is conducive to our expansion and progress.
After I took that elective course for one semester, two outstanding students were already doing very well, and I immediately extended an olive branch to them.
Both students are girls from poor families. They hope to have a way out by getting into university. They were very happy after receiving my internship invitation and unanimously expressed their willingness to come to the company for internship.
For children from poor families who are willing to work hard and make progress, my fourth brother's wife means to take care of them as much as possible.
Even if the school provides accommodation, the company will provide very superior accommodation and help them submit internship reports to the school, so that they can achieve an excellent balance between work and study.
Since they started internship at the company, the school seems to have found a new channel for recruiting students and has re-signed a cooperation contract with the company. Every year, the company can select outstanding students from the school to intern at the company.
If you pass the internship, you can stay in the company to work directly.
Such conditions attracted many students, and students from other majors were asking the school if they could change their majors. The college even used this as a gimmick for enrollment.
After taking this elective course for one semester, the two students had learned a lot from my internship and received a good salary.
They said frankly that this salary would not only allow them to live a good life, but would also improve the living conditions of their families.
I often tell them about my fourth brother's wife's recruitment philosophy, hoping that they can be grateful to the leadership and the company. This is not some poisonous chicken soup or chicken blood as people in later generations say, but simply because they happen to need it and we happen to have it.
But we can give it or not. As the boss’s sister-in-law, not only did she give it, but she also made the conditions very generous. This is what these interns should be grateful for.
After one semester, the number of apprentices under me expanded from the original two to five. The three new girls were led by the original two girls, so it was not difficult to lead them.
One semester is already a long time. They learn from me all the time, and I dare to let them get started with some of the less complicated parts, while I only need to control the complicated parts that are difficult for them to get started with.
After teaching at the university for a long time, I also met students with different ideas. Students often asked me, "Can they not join the company after they finish their studies?" They want to create their own brand and start their own business.
My unanimous response to them is: of course, we are not excluding dissenting companies, but we hope that a variety of diversified emerging enterprises will develop together.
This template was taught to me by my fourth brother’s wife, as she had anticipated this situation.
Including the apprentices I have, every piece of clothing of our original brand must have my special embroidery pattern. I have never taught anyone how to embroider the LOGO. My fourth brother's wife said that it is my brand.
Of course, all the apprentices I have trained can have their own brands. Each of them has their own unique embroidery style. Although it is inherited from me, there are some differences in details.
My fourth sister-in-law said: "The same teacher teaches a hundred students, and these hundred students are all a hundred different. No two students can be exactly the same. We should respect their differences and even use their differences to derive a diverse culture."
As long as the needlework is not wrong, I allow them to embroider differently from me, and I also encourage them to create their own new world if they have ideas.
Every student has different ideas. Some are bold and straightforward and directly propose the idea of creating their own brand within the company. We strongly support them all.
There are also some who are a little timid, perhaps they want to see whether our support is genuine or just pretending, and only reveal their intentions after others have made progress.
Naturally, we will take better care of those who do it first, so those who follow later will get less cake. We will not let them starve.
The designers within the company are divided into different schools, and embroiderers are naturally the ones they recruit. Each team is divided into a small department. They cooperate with each other and have their own division of labor.
Over time, there will be cases of malicious snatching of customer resources.
Customer resources within the company have always been shared, and we also allow some healthy competition within the company, until one incident changed our mindset.
A team had designed a piece of clothing for a customer. When they were ready to deliver the goods and pay the balance, the customer suddenly changed her mind and said she didn’t want it anymore, saying that the design of another department of ours was more in line with her requirements. She also turned around and said that we had a better design, so why didn’t we show it to her in advance? It wasted a lot of her time.
When my fourth brother’s wife found out about this, she was furious and immediately fired all the members of the group that stole the customers.
After that, the company had another explicit rule that for any customer shared within the company, before the clothes were cut, the company would not interfere no matter how much competition there was. However, if anyone else tried to compete for the customer after the deposit had been paid, it would be considered vicious competition and the person would be fired.
Once the swift and severe punishment and clear regulations were issued, everyone in the company wanted to keep their heads down and behave themselves.
Among the group that was expelled, there was a student whom I was quite satisfied with. He was talented and thoughtful, and this kind of thing had nothing to do with embroidery.
I went to find my fourth brother's wife to plead for the apprentice, hoping that she could stay, but she said that the rules had already been made and could not be changed. If I really admired her, I could help her set up her own studio and get angel investment for her.
That was my first time to come into contact with the concept of angel investment. After learning about it, I decisively became the angel investor of that student and helped her set up her own studio.
Such behavior was tantamount to going against the company, but my fourth brother's wife did not blame me. Instead, she encouraged me to do it.
She told me that the companies we invest in are like our own children. Whether the children grow up well or not, we have a lot of responsibility for it. I cannot just be responsible for the investment without also supervising them.
From then on, I knew that my fourth brother's wife had a mind and a vision that many important figures could not match. In fact, having come to this point, how could she not be a important figure herself?
