National Tide 1980.

Chapter 288 False Power

Jingcheng Honglian Garment Factory is a medium-sized garment factory affiliated to the Ministry of Textiles and managed by the Municipal Garment Company.

From founding to the 80s, before working with Peel Carton & Co.

The annual output value of this factory is less than 300 million yuan, and it is completely a situation of not being able to eat enough and starving to death.

The main products produced are shirts, trousers, skirts, autumn clothes, long johns and other low value-added "high street" women's clothing.

The product features are only low price, large quantity and high quality.

Fortunately, under the matchmaking of the Ministry of Textiles, this factory with [-] employees finally became a production enterprise in cooperation with Peel Carton Company, and it was able to get rid of the long-term decline.

Since then, it has been undertaking "PC" brand women's fashion.

Last year alone, Honglian Garment Factory achieved foreign exchange earnings of 200 million US dollars relying on the export of [-] orders.

Not only has it successfully turned Xianyu over, but it has also become a star enterprise under the clothing company.

Because of this, in mid-May 1982, when Ning Weimin came to the factory to check the defective "PC" women's clothing.Almost the entire leadership team of Honglian Garment Factory was alarmed.

The factory leaders came forward to receive Ning Weimin as if they were welcoming the imperial envoy.

Just having said that, such a grand warm welcome scene is somewhat embarrassing.

Because as a senior executive of Pierre Carton Company, Ning Weimin was really too young.

Don't forget, he is only 22 years old this year.

He was three or four years younger than the company quality inspector Yan Xu who accompanied him and was responsible for regularly visiting the factory.

In a situation like this, it is impossible for a state-owned enterprise that pays special attention to seniority in these years and likes newcomers to sharpen their skills before they are willing to reuse them.

Under normal circumstances, the stock-level cadres of a factory are also 26-30, and the department-level cadres are often around [-] years old.

As for the factory director and deputy factory director, the youngest is probably 40 years younger.

So the actual situation at the scene is like a farce

A group of middle-aged cadres came down from the office building to greet them, but they were taken aback when they saw Ning Weimin.

After knowing their identity, they were all dumbfounded.

But they all came, and they couldn't help shaking hands with this young man in his early twenties and saying good things to each other.

This is how embarrassing it is!

To be honest, not only a few factory leaders who were full of compliments felt embarrassed, sorry for their age.

Even Ning Weimin, who was the audience, felt uncomfortable, it was extremely awkward.

But there is no way, who let this be determined by the inequality of supply and demand.

Our country is really short of foreign exchange.

Even if it's not for these processing fees paid in foreign exchange.

In view of the backwardness of my country's light industry these years, we can only rely on the opportunity of receiving foreign trade orders to obtain some foreign high-end clothing materials through the "three to one compensation policy".

As a production and supplier, Honglian Factory couldn't help but feel wronged, and served Ning Weimin, the "superior".

All in all, to put it bluntly, money can turn ghosts around!

In these years, foreign-funded enterprises that are willing to invest in the mainland with real money in their hands are too awesome and too scarce.

So a rising tide raises all boats, Ning Weimin, the face of foreigners and the representative of foreign-funded enterprises.

It will inevitably be flattered by companies that rely on foreign trade orders for a living, as well as relevant government departments.

This allowed him to see almost all smiling faces wherever he went.

This point has been fully proved when the "PC" clothing exhibition hall was established in Tiantanzhai Palace.

As for the Honglian Garment Factory, of course it will not be exempt, this is just another confirmation of this point.

Fortunately, although Ning Weimin was a little proud, he was generally clear-headed.

He was not indulging in the false power of this kind of fox and tiger.

He even knows how to use this advantage reasonably.

This makes him show a very humble and polite side.

After shaking hands with many leaders, he thanked them again and again, insisting on sending them back to work upstairs.

Finally, on the grounds of "I don't want to affect the work of the factory leaders because of my visit", I gave the factory leaders a decent step down.

As for his purpose of coming, he only hoped that Cui Dagang, the production director, and Miao Zhen, the director of warehouse management, could accompany him to inspect the goods.

He didn't even keep Yan Xu, who was sent by the company, and let the boy go to work on what he should do first.

And this kind of attitude immediately won the great favor of all the factory leaders.

Although it was the first time we met, when we parted, the director's compliments like "Young and promising" were not all polite anymore.

As for the situation of going to the warehouse to inspect the goods, it was much better than Ning Weimin expected.

One is that there are a lot of things.

Probably because of the improvement of the production process, there must be a process of adaptation, and the rate of defective products has reached [-]%.

At least thousands of pieces of various fashionable women's clothing have been stockpiled in one of the factory's warehouses.

If everything is counted together, Ning Weimin would have to pay the factory 7 to [-] yuan for these things.

Second, the quality problem is not serious.

Ning Weimin opened several boxes to examine them.

He found that there were mostly minor problems such as skipped stitches, broken threads, wrinkles, not straight enough, and uneven seams.

There are fewer serious problems such as stains, asymmetry, crimping line width and narrowness, skew twisting, and fabric damage.

In short, the texture and variety of these defects really made him overjoyed.

At that time, I made up my mind that I had to find a warehouse as soon as possible, arrange vehicles, and take these goods away as soon as possible.

So as not to dream too much at night.

Of course, at this point, it's time to discuss how to ship and pay.

Once again, it was beyond Ning Weimin's expectation.

Without him asking at all, the factory has provided great convenience in terms of logistics and payment.

First of all, Miao Zhen, director of warehouse management, said that it can be delivered and transported for free.

As long as Ning Weimin gave them an inventory address, made an appointment for the delivery time, and arranged for someone to pick them up.

The factory's 130 trucks will deliver to the location he requested, and even help with the handling.

Secondly, the way to pick up defective products is to pull the goods first and pay later.

After all, it is a long-term cooperative unit, and Miao Zhen believes that it can be implemented according to the routine 30-day payment cycle.

In other words, Ning Weimin unintentionally took advantage of the company again.

Just because he is a "PC" person, he can pull away all the defective products without spending a penny.

After 30 days, not to mention that he should have been able to sell a lot of these goods and get back a lot of cash in his hands.

Just say that if he didn't sell much.

It is also possible to use the money from operating the specialty store and exhibition hall to advance the payment first.

Of course, when discussing details, Cui Dagang, the production director of the factory, inevitably complained.

Complain that the "PC" company is too strict on the quality card, saying that sometimes even a slight mistake can not pass the quality inspection.

Even if there is a small problem, the whole batch will be scrapped together.

Inside and outside the words, they are begging Ning Weimin to think about them and lower the quality inspection standards.

Regarding this matter, Ning Weimin certainly wouldn't be so stupid as to overstep his bounds and get carried away.

On the contrary, he defended the quality inspector Yan Xu with a very serious attitude, and described the difficulties in detail.

He said that the system of foreign-funded enterprises is different from that of state-owned enterprises and is much stricter.

Yan Xu has to be responsible in his position. If he fails to grasp the quality inspection, he will lose his job instead of deducting his bonus.

The garments produced are mainly sold to overseas markets.

If something goes wrong, it's not a trivial matter, and I'm afraid there won't be any more orders.

Needless to say, these few sentences completely blocked Cui Dagang's gossip and shattered his unrealistic fantasies.

On the contrary, it made him a little guilty, and he repeatedly said that he would guarantee the quality, and he never meant to be perfunctory in his work.

And this is the benefit of leaning against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

Not only do you not need to look at other people's faces, but also worry about your inability to eat and indigestion.

On the contrary, it can make the other party feel scared, try to think for you, and try to curry favor with you.

Doing business like this is of course not the same as those peddlers who rely on their own abilities.

It's so cool!

However, where is this going?

Soon Ning Weimin discovered another huge gold mine in this warehouse.

And it seems that for the same reason, only he with the "PC" company behind him is qualified to dig...
