Chapter 433 involves the clothing industry
Gu Ning and Cao Wenxin came to the rest area and sat down, and someone immediately poured them tea.
When she first entered the store, Gu Ning had already looked around. It wasn't very big, only about 20 square meters. There were not only dresses, but also some skirts that could be worn as dresses or as daily wear. There weren't many formal dresses, only about 20 pieces, but the styles were indeed as Cao Wenxin said, they were quite good, anyway, almost all of them caught Gu Ning's eye.
Every dress here is designed and tailored by Yu Zi herself.
Because it is a small shop, there is no factory that produces clothes. And most of the dresses are tailor-made, and they are only made after the customer places an order. Now these are just samples.
Of course, if a customer wants it, they can buy it directly, but most people still prefer to have it custom-made for two people because it fits them better.
"The dresses you have here are nice. You guys chat, I'll just take a look first." Gu Ning said hello and went to look at the dresses.
After walking around, Gu Ning pointed at a dress and asked, "What size is this? Can I wear it?"
Yu Zi was stunned for a moment. Could it be that Gu Ning wanted to buy a dress? However, regardless of whether she wanted to buy it or not, Yu Zi said enthusiastically, "This one is a small size. Miss Gu, would you like to try it on?"
As he spoke, he walked towards Gu Ning.
"I don't want to try it anymore. I just want this one." Gu Ning bought it without even trying it on or asking the price.
Hearing this, Yu Zi's first reaction was not excitement, but surprise. She was not surprised that Gu Ning wanted to buy a dress, but she bought it without even trying it on or asking the price.
This is the first time she has met such a happy customer!
But, if she didn't try it on, wouldn't she be afraid that it wouldn't fit? Because it was winter, everyone was wearing coats, so their figures couldn't be seen. Yu Zi didn't know what Gu Ning's specific figure was like, and whether it would fit.
If it was just an ordinary dress, it wouldn't be noticeable if it was a size bigger or smaller, but this is a close-fitting dress! "Ningning, don't you want to try it?" Cao Wenxin was also surprised, and immediately walked over and asked.
Which woman wouldn't try on clothes for a long time before deciding? But Gu Ning didn't even try them on.
"No need, I know my size." Gu Ning said.
Since Gu Ning said so, Yu Zi stopped worrying: "Okay, I'll pack it for you right away."
Yu Zi, who was as smart as she was, now realized that Cao Wenxin was not just passing by to sit for a visit, but had brought her friend to see the dress. Perhaps she was worried that the other party would not like it and it would be embarrassing, so she didn't say anything.
Yu Zi took off the dress and went to the counter to pack it for Gu Ning.
"The price of this dress is 68,000 yuan. Since Wen Xin brought it to you, I will give you a 20% discount." As she said this, she counted on the calculator: "54,400 yuan"
"Okay." Gu Ning took out the card and handed it to Yu Zi.
Yu Zi was slightly stunned. The other party didn't even blink at the dress worth tens of thousands of dollars. It seemed that she was a rich person!
In fact, Yu Zi didn't know Cao Wenxin's identity. Cao Wenxin didn't deliberately hide it. It's just that they were just ordinary friends, so there was no need to mention things like family background.
However, it was the same when Cao Wenxin bought dresses. She spent tens of thousands of dollars without blinking an eye, so she knew that Cao Wenxin was a lady from a wealthy family, but she just didn't know she was that rich.
"Ningning, sit here and wait for me. I'm going to the bathroom." Cao Wenxin suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach and said to Gu Ning.
"Okay, go ahead!" Gu Ning replied.
After swiping the card, Yu Zi invited Gu Ning to the rest area and they chatted.
"Ms. Yu, I heard from Sister Wen Xin that these dresses were designed and tailored by you yourself." Gu Ning praised.
"Yes! I studied fashion design in college, especially dresses, which I particularly prefer." Yu Zi said.
"You sound so pretty, so your business should be good!" Gu Ning asked. She had her reasons for asking this question even though she knew the answer.
Yu Zi's eyes flashed with sadness, but she still smiled warmly on the surface: "It's not good actually. I only have four or five orders a month. Apart from the capital, I can barely afford the rent and salary, as well as the daily expenses."
Because Gu Ning was Cao Wenxin's friend, Yu Zi did not hide it, because Cao Wenxin would know the truth as soon as she asked her.
"If business continues like this, will you continue to do it? I really like your designs and will definitely buy from you again in the future." Gu Ning said.
"It is my honor to receive the recognition from Ms. Gu. At present! Although the pressure is a bit high, it is my favorite industry after all. As long as I don't lose money, I will continue to do it, because if I persist, there will always be a day of success. But life can't always be based on what I like. I still need food, rice, oil and salt. So if I really can't hold on, I will change my career." Yu Zi is still rational and does not blindly pursue what she likes.
After a pause, Yu Zi continued, "Whether I run this dress shop or not in the future, if Miss Gu wants a dress, you can contact me at any time and I will help you design and tailor it."
Even if I can't do the dress business in the future, I can still do it part-time! If you don't make money, you're a fool! "I do have a way to make this brand. I can't guarantee whether it will become a well-known first-tier brand, but I think I have confidence in becoming a second- or third-tier brand. I just don't know if Miss Yu is willing or not, or if she believes me." Gu Ning said.
"What?" Hearing this, Yu Zi was slightly surprised, her eyes lit up, and she did not question Gu Ning, but asked: "Do you have a solution? What solution?"
Although Yu Zi had some doubts due to the other party's age, she was not so arrogant as to easily deny a person. No matter what the other party's method was, there was no harm in listening.
In fact, she knew very well that if she wanted to build a brand, she would have to spend money, have resources, publicity, celebrity endorsements, cooperate with businesses, etc., but she didn't have those conditions!
"I think so! Your design is very good, and I am interested in entering the clothing industry. So, if you are willing, I can invest, and I will take care of the resources, publicity and endorsement, business cooperation and so on, and you will be responsible for the clothing design and management of the "Zise" brand. As for your remuneration, you are still the founder of the brand. You only need to pay for the design, and I will give you 20% of the shares. What do you think?" Gu Ning said seriously.
Yes, Gu Ning was planning on Yu Zi. Although it was inappropriate to talk about such an important matter on the first meeting, and it gave people a casual feeling, but Gu Ning was a man of decisive actions. Now that there was an opportunity and time, why should he waste time choosing another time!
