Chapter 231 Order
Chen Yi saw that everything was almost ready, and then went to bed.
When she arrived at the company the next day, she still taught in the morning and designed clothes in the afternoon.
As summer is already entering the middle of the month, it is time to prepare autumn clothes.
After modifying the designs designed by Li Qing and Wu Mei, they started making samples.
The other young secretaries are still learning. At this time, they cannot draw pictures. They can only learn and watch others do it.
When Li Qing was making clothes, these people were watching her. They were very motivated and afraid that they would not learn anything.
Look at them and then compare them with Liu Yuwei, this is what it looks like to be studious and motivated.
In addition to teaching, Chen Yi has been designing clothes these days. In early autumn, the clothes were officially wholesaled.
That day, Director Zhang found her with a happy look on his face, "Director Chen, please come to my office with me. I have something important to tell you!"
"Okay, Director Zhang, thank you for your trip. Just ask your secretary to call and let them know next time." Chen Yi quickly put away the album and followed him out.
This office has an extension, and normally no one except the factory manager calls here.
After arriving at the office, Director Zhang sat on a chair and said, "We have received a batch of orders for summer clothing, but they have requirements that the style is different from ours and they want bold innovation."
This is a batch of orders from abroad. The order volume is not large at the moment, and we basically choose them because the purchase price is cheap.
This also reflects the fact that wages and prices were low at that time.
Chen Yi nodded, understanding what he meant. The other two provinces with relatively good development were close to the sea and were important trade areas.
However, the quotation there is higher than theirs. Some people will choose factories in the mainland, but not many.
"Director Zhang, I understand what you mean. I'll do this. I'll give you the design drawings later. Did they say when to deliver the samples?" She wanted to know the specific time as it was related to her progress.
Director Zhang looked at the calendar, flipped through it and replied, "It would be best if you can hand in eight samples within a month."
To be honest, he also felt it was a bit difficult, after all, Chen Yi was the only one in their factory who could really design clothes.
He would feel at ease if other people could design independently without any supervision.
So, after he finished speaking, he continued hesitantly: "If it doesn't work, I'll ask about the situation again. After all, we can discuss it."
Hearing him say this, Chen Yi shook her head and refused, "That won't do, Director Zhang. If we discuss it now, people will think that there is something wrong with our factory's capabilities, so I think we should still do our best. I will do my best."
She was right. Director Zhang also had concerns in this regard, so he did not mention this matter at the beginning.
Now that Chen Yi had said it, he just agreed.
"Thank you for your hard work. I'll talk to the accountant and double your bonus this month." He felt that he still had to make up for it.
Chen Yi did not refuse the comparison, after all, she was also working hard.
After the discussion, she went back and started looking through her own design drawings. There were not many suitable ones, after all, these clothes were all designed according to current mainland demand.
Then export trade must be liberalized, and body size differences must also be taken into consideration.
She picked up the sketchbook and started writing quickly.
Because Director Zhang just came over to talk to Director Chen, no one else dared to disturb him now.
If newcomers have any questions, they can go to Li Qing and Wu Mei. As for other matters, they can discuss them during the break.
When Chen Yi went home to rest at night, He Mingcheng raised chickens, ducks, geese and the like in the space, and she would go to the place where clothes were stored to look for suitable clothes.
Then screen and finally draw the picture after confirming it.
Of course, these can't all be exactly the same. She also has to combine the actual situation and choose a style that suits the current situation.
After half a month of revisions, she finally finished the design and showed it to Director Zhang for review, making sure it was just right.
After seeing the design drawings, Director Zhang could not help but nod his head in satisfaction. "Xiao Chen, I have to say that it is great to have you in our garment factory. These design drawings completely meet the other party's requirements, at least that is what I understand."
"Well, hurry up and make the garments. If you are short of manpower, I will ask Director Wang from the workshop to transfer two people to you."
He is very happy now. He thought he could not complete the task, but fortunately Chen Yi has the ability and strength.
Chen Yi nodded in agreement. Who would complain about having too many people?
Director Wang brought two people with him. I heard that they were dealing in clothing for trade, so they couldn’t be careless and all they brought were experienced craftsmen.
"Thank you, Director Wang. If you hadn't brought people here, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to complete this task today." Chen Yi has already asked Wu Mei and the others to start making clothes.
Hearing this, Director Wang waved his hand and said with a smile, "Now that Director Chen has entrusted us with an important task, it is only right that we contribute."
After a few polite words, Director Wang went back as he still had a lot of work to do.
Chen Yi took the master to an unused sewing machine, took out the design and fabric, and explained her requirements.
The master is worthy of being a master. You will understand after he explains it once.
They can read blueprints and make clothes, so their progress is faster than Wu Mei and the other two, and they don't need any guidance while they're working.
Chen Yi went to check it out twice and found no problem at all.
After several days of production, eight garments were completed.
"Director Chen, can I wear this kind of clothes outside?" Looking at the clothes on the wooden model, Wu Mei felt a little embarrassed.
In this relatively conservative era, clothing can reflect the times.
How can I wear a dress that goes above the knees and has a tight waist?
And those with bare shoulders and backs, they are embarrassed to look at them.
This happens because she is wearing a dress underneath. Generally, even in foreign countries where ordinary clothes are open, people will not show their backs.
Chen Yi smiled and said, "These clothes are not for us to wear. They are made for export trade according to other people's requirements."
As she packed her clothes, she said, "I'll take a rest for two days. You should study hard. You have learned a lot in the past few days. Don't forget it."
Although these eight pieces of clothing are not suitable, they contain many popular elements. If we can learn more from them, it may be a kind of progress.
Chen Yi delivered all the clothes to Director Zhang, along with the design drawings, and all of them had to be shown to him.
Of course, you can see the samples first, and if possible, you can see the design drawings after paying the deposit.
There are a lot of twists and turns here, so you have to be careful.
Director Zhang was very satisfied when he saw that it was completed a few days earlier than he had requested.
"Thank you for your hard work, Director Chen. Go back and take a rest these few days, and come back to work in a few days!"
