The meaning behind these words from the memorial is quite clear: to advise Tan Guoli not to harbor any unfounded intentions.
Tan Guoli understood the implication in her words and pouted, saying, "Sister-in-law, why are you helping outsiders instead of me?"
Besides, I didn't say anything or do anything, so why are you being so sarcastic?
Tan Guoli and her sister-in-law don't have a good relationship, mainly because Jinian is too outstanding!
Not only was her family well-off, but she almost left her brother in Beijing back then.
If it weren't for the factory running into problems and my father not having a capable assistant, I would have thought that Tan Guohua, being a trade major graduate, could offer some advice. If it weren't for this incident, the two of them would probably have settled in Beijing.
It's the same now; Jinian is only temporarily transferred here and will have to go back in six months.
In that case, her own brother would definitely have to leave too. Thinking of this, Tan Guoli's face turned even uglier.
This is also the main reason why the two have a bad relationship. Tan Guoli usually spends money extravagantly, and although Tan's father is the factory director and the family is well-off, he should also set an example.
There is a limit to the amount of pocket money given to each child!
Moreover, Tan Guoli already has a job and earns seventy or eighty yuan a month.
So Tan's father stopped giving money to his children, which resulted in Tan Guoli spending all her salary every month and sometimes having to borrow money from others.
If her brother were around, she could shamelessly ask for some more.
This is the downside of children who are spoiled from a young age!
Inside the room, Tan Guohua excitedly recounted what Lu Zhiye had said. Tan Songjiang stared at the young man in disbelief: "Little Lu, ah, no, Comrade Lu, is what Guohua said true???"
Lu Zhiye nodded: "I'm just offering an opportunity. Whether you can secure this order depends on your factory!"
With trembling hands, Tan Songjiang stood up and paced back and forth in the study: "Once we get this order, our factory will be revitalized!"
He became more and more excited as he spoke, wishing he could run a couple of laps around the factory right now!
Lu Zhiye took a sip of tea and sighed, "I have to say, the factory manager's secret stash is quite impressive."
Once the father and son had calmed down, Lu Zhiye continued, "I'm thinking of heading back to Beijing tonight, and we'll go see Louis first thing tomorrow morning!"
After all, his identity has attracted the attention of many textile factories in Beijing.
Let me be frank: whether you're a person or a factory owner, you need to know your own limitations. This is a huge market; the No. 2 Textile Factory alone can't handle it!
Moreover, the Louis family's purchase was not a small amount; they had purchased a large batch of porcelain in the early stages. This shows that at least five events combined were needed to secure this order!
So let's not expect to get rich overnight. Just show our strengths and let Louis choose. As for how much to buy, that's their own business!
If we drag and pull it, we might offend other textile factories!
Tan Songjiang nodded repeatedly: "I understand this principle, I understand!"
He has been in the factory director's position for so many years, experiencing countless ups and downs, before he finally came to understand these life lessons!
Unexpectedly, the young man in front of me, only in his early twenties, had already figured out the ins and outs of it all!
Tan Songjiang glanced at his son without showing any emotion, and sure enough, he saw resentment on his face.
He sighed, then thought for a moment and said, "You've all been drinking, shall I arrange for Xiao Liu from the factory to take you to Beijing?"
"Can!"
"Comrade Lu, I thought it must be hard for you to come all this way, so I got you some local specialties from here!"
They're all piled up outside. Do you think it's convenient for you to open the car door?
Should I have someone send your car upstairs?
Sending local specialties was just an excuse; the main reason was that Tan Songjiang wanted to have a serious talk with Tan Guohua!
Lu Zhiye did not refuse and got up to walk out.
Hearing the door close outside, Tan Songjiang finally spoke: "What, are you very unwilling?"
Tan Guohua gritted his teeth and sat down in the chair with a hint of resentment: "Dad, we have so much stock piling up in our factory, why don't we take this opportunity to get rid of it all at once?"
We have the capability to secure the majority of the orders, so why should we hand them over to others?
This is something I don't understand. First of all, the price of our batch of fabric is very low, which definitely gives us a significant advantage.
It costs at least one-third less than other pieces of fabric.
These foreigners aren't bad at math; if they place more orders, our factory won't have to worry about money next year.
Tan Songjiang sighed silently. His son usually seemed quite composed, but when it came to crucial moments, the difference between him and Lu Zhiye became obvious.
"The Louis family's visit to China caused a national sensation and was even reported in the newspapers."
How many factories do you think are eyeing him?
Wouldn't they have established a good relationship beforehand?
Even if we win most of the orders thanks to our price advantage, what good will it do us in the long run?
The networks of connections among the major textile factories in Beijing are all interconnected, and many of them are children of high-ranking officials and their families in Beijing's elite circles.
We've hindered them, and they've joined forces to stop our No. 2 Textile Factory. How long do you think we can hold out?
Rather than that, it would be better to take only a small portion of the profit and focus on long-term order demand.
If our fabric sells well in their hands, they will definitely continue to purchase in large quantities in the future.
Don't get hung up on immediate gains and losses!
Tan Guohua was still quite young, and he could understand some of the้็ (principles/reasons), but his youthful pride made him unwilling to admit defeat and made him want to fight big!
Seeing this, Tan Songjiang knew that his son hadn't really listened to him, so he said righteously, "This time you must listen to Comrade Lu and just introduce our factory's products!"
Don't say another word. Don't forget, life isn't just about taking one breath!
We have millions of families under our care. Just go outside and see how many people are eagerly waiting for their paycheck!
If, in a moment of anger, you cut off the textile factory's future, then you'll be the one to blame the entire operation!
Tan Guohua composed himself, looking at his father whose shoulders were slightly slumped, and then at the sideburns by his father's ears. The words that were about to come out were swallowed back down!
Tan Songjiang waved his hand: "Go ahead. Judging by the time, Xiao Liu should be here soon. See if your wife is on vacation, and whether she wants to go to Beijing with you."
Tan Guohua stood up, glanced around the living room, and didn't see Jinian. He turned to his younger sister and asked, "Where's Xiaonian?"
"Where else could she go? Mom went to load things into someone's trunk, and she eagerly went to help."
Judging from her eager expression, you'd think it was her boyfriend.
Tan Guoli was really angered by what Ji Nian had said before. Seeing Ji Nian eagerly leaning closer, she naturally couldn't expect anything good to come out of her mouth!
