Chapter 1123: I'll arrange this for you
Wang Yuehua's situation is similar to that of state-owned factories.
Even the garment factory in front of us needs to deal with the backlog of goods because it has transformed into a foreign exchange business.
In the next two years, when foreign-funded enterprises enter the market en masse, the state-owned factories will be unable to continue, and the situation of cutting losses or selling assets to repay debts will only become more exaggerated...
Just like the hardware factory that her child’s father took over.
It's just this matter...
Lu Miao held the microphone and did not respond for a short while.
After thinking for a moment, she said:
"I'll keep an eye on the situation over the next two days. If I can arrange it, I'll send someone over to meet with you."
On the other end of the phone, Wang Yuehua immediately responded happily:
"Okay, okay! Director Lu, I'll be waiting for your reply later!"
"Um."
Lu Miao responded softly.
Having said this, Wang Yuehua seemed to be about to hang up the phone.
Lu Miao held the microphone and continued:
"Don't hang up yet, I have something else to tell you."
"Hey, what's the matter?"
Lu Miao told Wang Yuehua what he was thinking.
Most of the foreign exchange orders that the garment factory is making now are based on the styles and patterns that she had provided before.
Even if there are some changes, it is just a change of name.
Relying on those, we have indeed attracted some foreign investment cooperation.
But in the long run, it's still not enough.
Lu Miao made some objective suggestions over the phone.
For example, traditional tailoring techniques can be used to make rare and exquisite products.
Garment factories aim to export large quantities of goods. If they want to retain foreign investors in the long term, it would be best to carry out internal reforms.
Where to change it?
Of course it’s design.
Outstanding design, collision and matching of fashionable colors, etc.
Lu Miao gave Wang Yuehua the opportunity to look around the school more.
Especially those art academies, design colleges and the like.
Lu Miao spoke quite tactfully, but she almost touched upon all the points that could be made.
The rest depends on Wang Yuehua’s own consideration and decision.
On the other end of the phone, Wang Yuehua quickly responded:
"Director Lu, I will seriously consider what you said. I will wait for your reply first. If there are any special circumstances, I will contact you in time!"
Lu Miao responded and hung up the phone.
Putting the phone back on the landline, Lu Miao supported his forehead and pondered for a while.
Waiting for the idea in her mind to take shape, she picked up the phone and dialed another number.
I do have some factory-related matters waiting to be dealt with, but nothing related to clothing or fabrics.
But even so, she had a way to deal with Wang Yuehua's accumulated goods...
At the same time, in the factory yard.
Liu Xiaoya was playing in the yard with the stumbling Ling Suisui when Mei Zi suddenly poked her head out of the house and shouted:
"Xiaoya, go check out the back alley and the street. If you see your Uncle Xiangdong driving back, tell him to hurry back to the yard. He has an urgent matter and is waiting for you to answer the phone!"
"Oh! I see, Aunt Meizi!"
After handing his younger sister over to an adult, Liu Xiaoya opened the gate and hurried to the back alley to look for someone.
…
Lu Miao discussed this with Chen Xiangdong in advance and confirmed that it was feasible. Before "arranging" someone to connect with Wang Yuehua, he personally went to the garment factory to see the actual situation.
The garment factory only produces a few common styles of goods, such as men's shirts, trousers, green military uniforms, Mao suits, women's dresses and women's coats and pants.
Although the styles are simple, they come in a variety of different colors, and there is enough stock to fill half a warehouse.
Lu Miao came over to see the situation. Although she didn't say anything explicitly, Wang Yuehua already thought she was here to inspect the goods, so she took her to see each item one by one and explained the situation to her one by one.
Garment factories have always been engaged in mass production, and they don’t produce many high-quality products. The goods stored in the warehouse are all common goods.
There is nothing wrong with the quality, it is made of common and standard fabrics, and its market positioning has been determined long ago.
For example, the Zhongshan suit is made of good materials and costs from eighty to over one hundred yuan on the market.
But Wang Yuehua said that the price of this kind of product made by their factory was 40 yuan per set according to the supply indicators in the past.
When they go to some state-owned distribution points and sell them abroad, they can sell them for fifty-five to sixty yuan per set.
The same is true for other models.
"Director Lu, I just mentioned normal supply, but the situation is different now. The factory has all this stuff waiting to be processed, and I'm anxious to free up space..."
Lu Miao came over in person, and Wang Yuehua confessed everything to her:
"Like the Zhongshan suit I mentioned earlier, the cost of making one is 25 yuan. If you can arrange it for me, I won't talk about making money. I'll just take the fabric cost and labor costs and give you 27 yuan per set to cover my investment."
This is true for Zhongshan suits, and naturally also for other skirts, jackets, etc.
Although Wang Yuehua is the factory director, the real owner behind the factory is the country.
Lu Miao knew that the price she offered was basically the lowest price within her authority.
Of course, it is indeed a fair price...
Lu Miao thought about this and didn't speak for a while.
In this moment, Wang Yuehua frowned and thought, then quickly added:
"Director Lu, if you can take all these goods away together, I can give you another dollar less on the price!"
Lu Miao nodded and responded directly:
"In the next two days, check the inventory to see how many pieces of each style you have and how much it costs in total. I'll help you arrange it."
Wang Yuehua thought about it for a long time.
Although she had already offered the lowest price within her ability, she was afraid that Lu Miao didn't understand these things, and was still thinking about how to make this matter more attractive!
Lu Miao suddenly said this, and Wang Yuehua was stunned and didn't react for a long time.
Lu Miao didn't hear anything. He looked around the warehouse and then fixed his gaze on Wang Yuehua and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Wang Yuehua shook her head blankly, paused for a long time, smiled, and then continued to be stunned.
After hesitating for a long time, Wang Yuehua finally seemed to react and said with wide eyes:
"Director Lu, are you serious? Can all of my goods be disposed of?"
Lu Miao smiled faintly, nodded and gave her a reassuring look:
"Give me a copy of the statistical data report later, and I'll arrange for someone to come and connect with you as soon as possible."
"Okay! Okay! I, I'll do it this afternoon!"
Wang Yuehua was so happy that she was incoherent.
Lu Miao smiled calmly, told her to take her time and not to rush, and then said that he would go back today.
Wang Yuehua pulled her aside and said she wanted to keep her at the factory for dinner.
No matter whether it was about handling inventory today or taking their factory to the Canton Fair before, they had to give her a good reception and thank her.
Lu Miao smiled and politely refused:
"Let's wait until we have a chance to eat later. I need to spend some time coordinating with the other party on this matter when I get back."
She pointed her index finger at the warehouse and continued with a smile:
"I'll try to help you clear this area as soon as possible so as not to delay your work."
Wang Yuehua was truly grateful to Lu Miao, but she was also truly afraid of delaying this matter, so she could only nod in response and said, "The next best thing is:
"Alright then, Director Lu, I'll take care of this first! After this period of time, I'll reserve a table at the state-owned restaurant. Then, please come over and we can sit down and chat!"
Lu Miao smiled and nodded slightly.
Although I didn't refuse this time, whether to eat the meal or not is a matter for the future.
