Chapter 337: Getting a spot at the Canton Fair
Chen Qing was confused by what he heard. Apart from connecting the names of the machines with their appearances, the professional vocabulary just passed through his mind and then disappeared without a trace.
"Can I get a piece of paper and write it down? Otherwise, I think I'll forget it. And you don't have to accompany me all the time. Just arrange for someone to explain it to me."
"OK."
He saw that Chen Qing had a good attitude.
No nitpicking.
He also seriously said that he would write it down.
I am so grateful.
A female employee was immediately arranged to accompany Chen Qing.
Chen Qing wrote down professional terms in a notebook and drew their general appearance on the notebook.
When I got home in the evening, I asked He Yuan about the competitiveness of these products.
He Yuan: "Aren't you going to class tonight?"
"I have several jobs now, so I don't have to go to class." Chen Qing replied.
There was unstoppable joy in He Yuan's eyes.
Chen Qing gave him a cool look.
He Yuan restrained himself instantly: "Then let me explain it to you."
He didn't explain for long before going to work overtime.
Chen Qing had no choice but to continue asking the sales department for advice, but with little effect.
When she returned to the factory committee, her mind was as messy as a ball of wool and she had no idea how to sort it out.
After studying for a long time, Chen Qing finally understood the selling point, but was called away by Xi Gaomin again.
Xi Gaomin took Chen Qing to meet the big boss.
If a garment factory wants to secure a booth at the Canton Fair and secure its position by earning foreign exchange, it has to meet the main person in charge.
Chen Qing met Song Zeming for the second time and greeted him respectfully.
Song Zeming was stunned.
He had met Chen Qing at the machinery factory before.
Why did she come here with the director of the garment factory?
Could it be that in such a short period of time, Chen Qing was transferred from the machinery factory to the garment factory?
"Comrade Chen changed his workplace?"
Chen Qing: "No, I followed Director Xi here to show the clothes I designed for the garment factory in my spare time, to see if I can get a quota for the Canton Fair and give the garment factory a booth."
Song Zeming was surprised: "I didn't expect Comrade Chen to have such talent."
Xi Gaomin said: "Comrade Chen once published an article on improving wedding dresses and even published a book. She is also a tailor. I was lucky enough to make friends with her. When I saw her designs, I dared to ask Comrade Chen to bring the clothes to Secretary Song for a look."
At present, Song Zeming was in urgent need of foreign exchange and was also worried about generating income. Seeing someone volunteering, he did not reject it as he had done in previous years and said, "Then let me take a look at your products."
Chen Qing immediately opened the bag.
Since she came to an important unit, she naturally couldn't carry a lot of dummies, so she prepared hangers to help her display her clothes better and also make it easier for Secretary Song to see them clearly.
Song Zeming looked at the loose linen shirt and frowned, "Don't garment factories usually produce embroidered silk scarves and Dacron shirts?"
"Yes, but linen shirts are very comfortable. According to my limited understanding, jeans are popular abroad. I designed clothes specifically for them to match with jeans. This dress has a minimalist cut and is simple to make. If we can sell it, we can make money."
Chen Qing’s current goal is to earn foreign exchange.
Therefore: customer needs are the criterion.
Song Zeming became interested: "How much did your clothes cost, and how much do you plan to sell them for?"
"The cost is about five to six yuan, one of which is the packaging I prepared. I wanted to make customers remember our brand, so that we can be like many factories with stable channels to earn foreign exchange, foreigners will come to buy, and we don't have to keep selling."
Chen Qing wants to create a brand that belongs to China, but the distance is still very far, and she didn't make such big promises.
Then he said, "The selling price is at least 15 RMB."
Although earning foreign exchange is a loss at present.
But when it comes to clothing, Chen Qing doesn't want to lose money.
Fifteen yuan is the lowest price in Chen Qing's mind. As for the most suitable price, that depends on the situation at the Canton Fair.
Song Zeming sat up straight: "Show me your other clothes."
Chen Qing introduced them to her one by one.
Xi Gaomin had heard Chen Qing’s introduction once before, but he was still excited when he heard it this time.
It would be nice if these clothes could really be sold wholesale.
After listening to this, Song Zeming immediately called Director Shen and told him, "Comrade Chen Qing, deputy director of your factory committee, please arrange for her to be temporarily transferred to the garment factory for one month."
Director Shen: “!!!”
a bolt from the blue!
He hoped that Chen Qing could make money for the machinery factory at the Canton Fair.
As expected, she left.
Chen Qing felt slightly guilty.
Fortunately, there are brother units all over the country.
We need to help each other.
It is normal for an employee to be transferred to other places.
Song Zeming allowed the garment factory to have a small booth: "But your booth is quite remote, I will send my secretary to take you to have a look."
"Thank you, Secretary Song."
Chen Qing and Xi Gaomin expressed their gratitude together.
They both knew it.
Important booths have important factories.
They are just newcomers, and if they really have a big booth, they will be scolded to death.
Chen Qing and Xi Gaomin rode their bicycles and followed Secretary Song's secretary to the venue of the Canton Fair, who led them to the booth.
It takes twenty minutes to walk from the main entrance to their booth...
Chen Qing looked at the small open space in front of him and took a deep breath.
Xi Gaomin asked Chen Qing: "Should we ask others how to set up the booth?"
"If you trust me, give me the money and I'll find a few trustworthy people to build the booth."
Xi Gaomin hesitated.
Now got the stand.
If the leaders of the garment factory were not allowed to contribute and have the opportunity to gain credit, they would definitely blame her.
Chen Qing turned his back to Xi Gaomin and said, "You may only have one chance. Director Xi, make your choice."
Xi Gaomin gritted his teeth and said, "Then you do it. I'll take care of the rest."
"good."
Chen Qing asked for a batch of funds for the booth, and asked Xi Gaomin to apply for two people from the machinery factory: "Tian Mengya and Talia."
Talia is a foreigner.
It will be useful then.
The same goes for Tian Mengya.
Chen Qing has always liked Tian Mengya's figure and thought she was very suitable to be a model.
After applying, Chen Qing said to Xi Gaomin, "Pick ten bright and well-proportioned girls for me."
Xi Gaomin: “…Okay.”
The garment factory's exhibition booth was in full swing. Time soon came to April and Chen Qing was still preparing.
The top management of the garment factory was about to fall out, and felt that the factory was making trouble for no reason: "Chen Qing didn't even have any stock, and it was all based on those few pieces of clothing, and our garment factory allocated such a large sum of money. It's outrageous!"
Xi Gaomin let them scold him.
After you've cursed enough, stick to your own opinion.
Talia and Tian Mengya, who came to help, originally thought that making the booth was simple, and they stayed at Chen Qing's house most of the time, but they were simply exhausted.
It’s more tiring than dealing with employee information at the Housing Authority before.
Because there were a lot of trivial things and Chen Qing demanded perfection, the two of them worked hard on them, but they were overturned by Chen Qing and they were almost mentally broken.
