Chapter 586 Targeting
For some reason, the news of fabric shortage spread quickly, and the employees became panic-stricken, fearing that their iron rice bowls would be lost.
The factory committee director Lei Songyue faced a difficult test and began to thoroughly investigate who was spreading the rumors!
The morale of the army cannot be shaken at will. Whoever disrupts production will be put to death!
But there was always a sense of unease lingering over the garment factory, and Chen Qing received a call from Xu Yongkang.
Xu Yongkang said happily, "Director Chen, we have stock in Hong Kong. The quality is better and the colors are brighter. It just suits the tastes of foreign merchants. We can help you import it."
Chen Qing's eyes lit up.
Finally there is good news!
But Xu Yongkang's next words brought her back to reality: "However, this needs to be paid in full in cash, and after transportation and tariffs, the cost will be 30% to 40% higher than the domestic planned price. Your factory will need to prepare a large sum of money first."
Chen Qing was still very grateful.
Soon, Tian Mengya arrived. "Regarding the fabric issue, I asked someone to help me find out. It seems that the important fabrics our garment factory needs have been pre-ordered, or simply said to be insufficient in stock. The strange thing is that there are no large-scale production plans requiring this material recently."
"We have a method for the fabric. Let's talk about how much money the finance department can spare."
Chen Qing remained calm.
Tian Mengya was a little overwhelmed. "With the planned quotas, bank loans, and the return of payments, there is not much money left. Our garment factory is burning through money. There is a deposit for the new batch of orders, but it has also been used to buy materials. There is very little money left in the account."
Chen Qing took the bill and looked at it. Tian Mengya wrote it very clearly. She looked carefully and found that Tian Mengya really spent her money wisely.
Garment factories are expanding at their utmost, spending the money as soon as it arrives, leaving very little left.
Those who wanted to plot against her really precisely cut off all her possible sources of funding.
Chen Qing's hands became cold as he flipped through the account book.
"I understand. You go ahead and do your work."
"Chen Qing... do you know what is going on?" Tian Mengya asked in a trembling voice.
Chen Qing's eyes were firm: "Trust me, it's okay, just do your best!"
Tian Mengya met her eyes and seemed to be injected with strength. "I understand. I'll go see if there is any way to get the money."
"Um."
Chen Qing nodded.
As soon as Tian Mengya left, she lost all her strength.
Secretary Zhang looked at this and felt uneasy. Director Chen was being attacked by the industry.
But even under heavy pressure, most of the vitality of the garment factory depends on the factory director.
She looked calm and composed, and even though the employees had some rumors, they didn't make a big fuss because everyone thought the factory director was capable.
But is it really possible if all the roads are blocked?
Wei Jianping also secretly observed Chen Qing's condition and found that she was a little depressed, so he reported the good news to Xi Gaomin: "There is not enough fabric quota for her. Even if she shines at the Canton Fair this time, it will be useless."
Xi Gaomin nodded with satisfaction. She just didn't believe that even though she had united so many people this time, she still couldn't win a comeback!
People in the clothing industry focused their attention on Chen Qing.
For the common enemy, everyone can work together.
She is short of money and fabrics, so everyone wants to see how she can shine at the Canton Fair!
Chen Qing went to work and went home as usual, and the hearts of her employees gradually calmed down. In fact, she was becoming more and more anxious.
The Light Industry Bureau also held a clothing conference because Qi Yuanchao was very concerned about Chen Qing's recent lack of money and fabrics, and asked everyone to propose how to help Chen Qing solve the current difficulties.
Xi Gaomin smiled and said, "Director Chen, I heard you're not in great shape. You're young, and it's good to be ambitious, but you also have to act within your means. How about this: if you're really in trouble and the workload at the Canton Fair is too heavy, our Third Garment Factory can share some of the burden. We're all earning foreign exchange for the country, isn't that right?"
As soon as these words came out.
Many people followed suit.
Said that he could also help share the pressure.
Qi Yuanchao also tried to persuade him, "Director Chen, if your garment factory hands over a certain portion of the work, it would also help alleviate the current crisis, right?"
Chen Qing sneered: "Then why can't you just give me the fabric? Doesn't our garment factory know how to produce it?"
Xi Gaomin: "We gave you the fabric. What do our garment factory workers do? Our factory also has its own tasks. We are willing to make fewer domestic clothes to help you. Don't be ungrateful."
"That's right, Director Chen, you have to learn to be flexible."
"Yes, we are all your seniors, how could we harm you? We are all gathered here for your own good."
…
They were talking at once, and Chen Qing was getting annoyed.
Shengxia Sportswear Factory receives less government subsidies because it is a pilot project. The sportswear belongs entirely to Shengxia Sportswear Factory and other factories are not allowed to produce it.
But now what they meant was to force her to make sportswear the sportswear for everyone.
Qi Yuanchao: "We can't be selfish. We are all brothers and sisters."
Xi Gaomin said proudly: "Director Chen, did you hear that?"
The long table in the light industry conference room is a dark, heavy solid wood table. Scratches left by time and white circles burned by teacups are faintly visible on the tabletop. It looks shiny but old.
The long tabletop extended to both sides. The table was too long and too wide, and was extremely messy with all kinds of documents, reports, and teacups. Each object seemed to be silently declaring sovereignty and showing their confidence in being numerous and powerful.
A group of people were watching him with eager eyes, and Chen Qing felt the pressure from all the members head-on.
Secretary Zhang stood behind Chen Qing and wiped the cold sweat that was slowly dripping from his forehead.
He sincerely felt that it was not unreasonable for Chen Qing to be able to sit in the position of factory director at such a young age.
So many people are watching.
Each of them has a complicated identity, and they are all putting pressure on her.
She was isolated and helpless.
Only one person can resist.
Secretary Zhang didn't know what the factory director could do.
Chen Qing: "Secretary Zhang."
Secretary Zhang shuddered and said quickly, "Here we are!"
"Call Minister Lian and ask him how much fabric we have in the country to provide to garment factories making sportswear? Then call Director Peng and ask her how much foreign exchange the Shengxia Sportswear Factory plans to earn in the new year, and whether my task can also be shared with other factories!"
Chen Qing placed emphasis on 'brothers and sisters'.
Sizzle——
There was a harsh sound of the stool rubbing against the ground.
Qi Yuanchao stood up, sparks flashing in his eyes: "Chen Qing, don't go too far."
Chen Qing scoffed and met his gaze directly: "Is it too much?"
Qi Yuanchao's eyes turned gloomy.
Chen Qing smiled and said, "Don't worry, we need your concerted efforts. After the Canton Fair is over, I will fulfill your wish."
Chen Qing stood up and said, "I have something to do, so I'll leave first."
She walked a few steps outside, then turned around and smiled at everyone present: "I will remember you."
