Fan Youcheng knew Liu Fuyi, because Liu Fuyi was an old employee of the textile factory and had always lived upstairs in the photo studio. So he quickly added, "Director Liu, although my sister is young, she is smart and has many good ideas. Take my photo studio for example, if it weren't for her advice, there would be no current business. Don't worry, we really want to build up the garment factory, and we will also give the employees who are about to be laid off a new job! This is a good thing that has the best of both worlds!"
Liu Fuyi nodded slightly, thought for a while, and said, "I am very pleased that you have this heart. These workers in the factory have dedicated most of their lives to the textile factory. Suddenly they were laid off and many of them don't know how to live. If you can really re-employ some of the workers, it will be a good thing."
Fan Hua smiled and said seriously, "Director Liu, don't worry, we will definitely give priority to the workers from the original textile factory. Moreover, I plan to develop diversified operations. In addition to the traditional clothing manufacturing industry, we will also expand some related peripheral products, so that we can provide more jobs. We will need far more people in the future, but I will not accept those former scoundrels who cheated and cheated!"
Hearing this, Liu Fuyi nodded in understanding, and finally showed a smile on his face, "Okay, since you are so sincere, the price can be negotiated. However, I am just a factory director, the factory is public, I can't make the decision. The transfer procedures of this factory are relatively complicated, I need to communicate with the leaders above, and go through some procedures."
"No problem, Director Liu, when can you arrange for us to talk with the relevant leaders?" Fan Hua asked directly.
"I will contact you as soon as possible and try to arrange it in the next two days. I will contact you as soon as I have news!" Liu Fuyi said, standing up and extending his hand to shake hands with Fan Hua. "I hope you can really make this factory lively again."
After leaving the factory director's office, Fan Hua and Fan Youcheng wandered around the textile factory. Fan Youcheng asked in confusion, "Sister, why don't you consider continuing to run the textile factory and changing it to a clothing manufacturing factory? If we continue to run the textile factory, then we don't even need to buy the machines, we can just buy the machines together!"
Fan Hua did not directly answer Fan Youcheng's question, but asked in return: "Brother, do you know why this textile factory can no longer operate?"
"I heard that the textile factory has been making losses for years and its profits can no longer support so many people!" Fan Youcheng directly said what he heard.
Fan Hua nodded, "Have you ever thought about why this textile factory has been losing money year after year?"
Fan Youcheng looked at the old machines around him and suddenly seemed to understand something. "It's probably because the machines here are too old! I heard that this textile factory was established at the beginning of the People's Republic of China. It's been 30 years. Looking at the old appearance of the equipment, I'm afraid it has never been replaced."
Fan Hua was very pleased with Fan Youcheng's observation skills. After half a year of night school, Fan Youcheng's growth and change were really obvious. "You are right. This textile factory is one of the first state-owned factories to be closed down by the state. The higher-ups must have considered and investigated it carefully. If we want to continue to run the textile factory, we must update the equipment and technology first. Otherwise, it will be difficult to save this aging factory. So we might as well just switch to another industry."
Seeing that Fan Youcheng was listening seriously, Fan Hua continued, "Now that people's lives are getting better, the demand for clothes will increase. The situation where a piece of clothing can be worn by three generations is over. Just wait and see. The 1980s was definitely a trendy era, and working in the clothing industry was definitely a good choice! The workers in the textile factory are also mainly women. After a little training, it is not difficult for them to switch to clothing manufacturing. Besides, have you forgotten what your sister is best at?"
Fan Youcheng's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this. Yes, he only felt sorry for these machines and thought it would be a pity to get rid of them, but he ignored the fact that his sister was best at drawing and designing!
Fan Youcheng slapped his head and said, "How could I forget such an important thing? If we run a clothing factory, you can design all kinds of novel and beautiful clothing styles. The clothing styles you designed will definitely sell very well!"
The two were talking happily when a few female workers in work clothes came over. One of them, who looked a little older, came up and asked with some concern, "Girl, boy, we just heard from the factory manager that you are going to take over this factory and transform it into a garment factory. Is this true?"
Fan Hua smiled and nodded, "Yes, sister, we do have this plan. But we haven't discussed it with the leaders yet, so we're not sure if we can take it over smoothly."
When the female worker heard this, she was immediately surprised. "Oh, that's great. Of course it can be done. This factory is going to close down. Who would disagree if someone takes over? Girl, when you take over this factory, can you keep us here? We have worked here for so many years. If we lose our jobs all of a sudden, we really don't know what to do."
Many employees gathered around, all wanting to know what Fan Hua would say.
Fan Hua looked at everyone and said firmly, "Sister, if I can successfully take over this factory, as long as you can pass the skill test and are willing to work hard, we will definitely give priority to hiring the old employees of the textile factory!"
"The skill test you mentioned refers to sewing clothes with a sewing machine?" The eldest sister's tone was full of anticipation.
"We don't just need workers who can use sewing machines. We also need to recruit designers, buyers, cloth cutters, numbering and matching workers, ironers, warehouse workers, market researchers, marketing personnel and other positions. Of course, the sewing workers you mentioned are definitely the most in demand. When the time comes, everyone can submit their resumes according to their own situation."
After thinking for a while, Fan Hua said, "However, our clothing factory is different from the previous textile factory in terms of management model. More work, more pay. Those who cheat and play tricks will not be accepted. A good factory must rely on everyone's concerted efforts and hard work to innovate."
The female workers nodded repeatedly to show that they understood. With the arrival of brother and sister Fan Hua and Fan Youcheng, the gloomy atmosphere that had originally permeated the factory instantly dissipated a lot.
Afterwards, Fan Hua and Fan Youcheng left the textile factory.
On the way home, Fan Youcheng said excitedly: "Sister, I feel that this matter is already half successful. I hope that our acquisition plan will go smoothly. I can't wait to see the garment factory open!"
Fan Hua smiled, her face full of anticipation. The clothing factory she had been dreaming of was finally going to open!
