The higher-level leaders wanted to play it safe and did not support the National Cotton Mill's plan to make clothing.
However, considering the extra workers, since they are serving the people, how can we just lay them off? It is neither morally nor logically appropriate.
After comprehensive consideration, the leaders agreed to Tong Qifang's proposal.
Moreover, they also put forward the demand that the clothes produced by the state-owned cotton mills must succeed and not fail.
After Tong Qifang obtained the permit, Xiao Jiahua immediately took her to Xizhen.
Later, the professional pattern makers she wanted to recommend were the pair of old Hongbang tailors who came from Shanghai.
The master and his wife were both the owners of a custom-made fashion store when they were young. Not only were they good at making patterns, but they were also good at designing fashion.
They knew Xiao Jiahua and helped her make a suit for Bai Keyan. Xiao Jiahua was a sincere and polite person, and he was also very generous at the time, which left a very good impression on them.
At this time, the old couple received them warmly.
Tong Qifang was also pleasantly surprised when she met the two old tailors and the high-quality clothes made in the tailor shop.
She immediately invited the old couple to come out of retirement and work as designers and pattern makers at the National Cotton Mill.
The treatment of formal employees of the National Cotton Mill is not low. Designers are respected. If they do a good job, they can be allocated a house in the county town. They even receive a pension after retirement. It is much better than their current odd jobs and private work.
The most important thing is that even at this age, he can still make use of his remaining energy and make contributions to the working people. The masters and their families were immediately attracted.
After the pattern-making problem was solved, Tong Qifang also received a letter from the Guangdong Textile Factory.
Liu Yalan was not shy about offering summer clothing designs.
Just like that, the clothing production line that had been silent for a long time started working again.
With the right time, place and people, Xiao Jiahua considered every aspect of clothing production and sales thoroughly, and conveyed every detail to the workers and supply and marketing cooperatives.
Anyway, the fashion circle goes through a cycle every thirty years. Xiao Jiahua also participated in clothing design based on the aesthetics of the "future" and provided a lot of advice to the old tailor couple.
No one can resist good things. What Xiao Jiahua can do is to make the product well and to the extreme.
She was busy until late May, and only when the summer clothes were officially available did she finally breathe a sigh of relief.
After the clothing supply started, the streets were not completely deserted, but the young girls and boys were the first to get excited.
Young people are no longer satisfied with the formal cloth shirts and black pants made by their mothers and grandmothers.
The supply and marketing cooperatives have ready-made tops and dresses with novel patterns and slim fit. As soon as they get off work, they go to the supply and marketing cooperative.
Xiao Jiahua instructed his assistant Ding Qinqin that all clothing should be divided into styles and ranges, and sent to the supply and marketing cooperatives in a planned manner, with new products added from time to time to create a sense of freshness for customers.
Because the style is limited, many people wear one and are thinking about the next one, regretting that they have limited cloth and clothing coupons and cannot buy more.
The state-owned cotton mill produced its own cotton cloth and sold its own clothes, with remarkable results.
The superiors were also very satisfied. For several days in a row, the rewards and praises occupied the headlines of the Advanced Daily.
After learning about the project committee, Director Wang of the County Commercial Bureau, combined with Xiao Jiahua's previous "deeds" of bringing forth new ideas, also sighed at the summary meeting, "Comrade Xiao, congratulations on your achievement. I think it's a waste of your talent to be a product manager!"
Xiao Jiahua received the red flower and smiled modestly to the leader, "Director Wang, thank you for the compliment. I was just lucky and stumbled upon this by accident."
The next day, in the general manager's office, Xu Deshun informed Xiao Jiahua that due to Xia Zhuang's reputation and outstanding performance, the county had approved Xiao Dabao and Xiao Shitou's settlement applications in advance in order to give preferential treatment to talents.
Xu Deshun suggested: "School manager, you should handle the settlement procedures for the children now. In three months, when school starts in the fall, they can come to the county to study."
