Chapter 124 Carrying the dreams of female secretaries

"I didn't expect you to be conservative when it comes to picking up girls, and even more conservative when it comes to starting a company."

Adam held the steering wheel with his right hand, and made a "C" gesture with his left hand out of the car window, feeling the joy of the strong wind rubbing against the skin of his palm.

This is his favorite action while driving.

"Listen to me, there is a huge market for silk stockings. If the looming black stockings are not so durable, I can tear off many pairs in one night."

Adam, a friend of the cheerleaders, is troubled by the girls' nylon stockings. Although he knows that DuPont has specially reduced the durability of nylon stockings in order to increase sales, the current popular garter stockings and stockings are still mainly worn. The selling point is that it is very inconvenient to tear up when free fighting at night.

Listening to his words, Bill was also a little moved. He imitated the movements of his former roommate, and also stretched out his right hand out of the car window to make a C, feeling the beauty of it, "So do you want elastic stockings or stockings? Easy to tear? I think this may be a product in two directions.”

Under Armor is a serious sports brand, but it is not impossible for Mr. Ferrari to create other brands.No matter which plane it is, women's money is the best to earn, and he doesn't want to let this market go.

Moreover, Ms. Anna and William Darry are now working with decent wages, and there is not much workload with just short sleeves and training clothes. Bill doesn't want to waste the money he spent on hiring people.

"Everything, everything! I sometimes fight with a few women, which consumes too much energy." Adam continued to bewitch his teammates, "Don't worry about losing money, when I enter the professional team next year, I will Will invest in your company."

He fooled around for more than half a year in his freshman year, and then forced himself to keep up with the rhythm of spring training and taking medicine for his career plans. After more than a year, he finally got mixed into the starting cornerback. Active pursuit of strength.With a good performance in the next season, he might be invited by the NFL draft camp in advance, and enter a professional team to play in September next year to make money.

"Follow Sophia's car, let's go to Under Armour, stockings are a good idea, I want to try it."

Bill directs Adam who drives.

"liquid!"

The blacksmith hurriedly withdrew his left hand, freed his right hand holding the steering wheel and slapped his teammate on the shoulder, "I knew you were strong. Stockings are really works of art. The red-light district of San Francisco was not killed by that bitch mayor." Back then, fishnet socks were the hallmark of sports."

Red light district?
"Why are you so clear? Where is this place? I'll criticize it when I have time."

Mr. Ferrari didn't have any wrong thoughts, he just wanted to see the world.

"It's in North Beach, northeast of San Francisco, adjacent to Chinatown." Adam suddenly felt something was wrong as he spoke, "Aren't you Italian? Why don't you know North Beach, the Little Italy area?"

"Of course I know where it is, but I didn't expect it to be a red-light district. If you had told me earlier, I would have gone to meet my family."

Bill suddenly felt a deep sense of homesickness.

……

"Boss!"

After the hill-like figure walked into his new workplace, William Darry greeted his boss after being reminded by his colleagues.

Bill looked at his first physical company. The currently renovated area is the entire office area of ​​the technical department. The layout is similar to a cubicle, except that there are more sewing machines, edge sewing machines, sample storage cabinets, large cutting tables, Ironing tables and other equipment related to the clothing company, more than a dozen headless and armless fashion models were placed horizontally in the open space. Fortunately, it was daytime and the sunlight came in through the blinds. Otherwise, seeing these models lying on the ground at night would be really scary. Jump.

There is another large room that is still being renovated, which is the office area of ​​the purchasing department, logistics department, supply department and other departments. The decoration team is recommended by Sophia. The boss is a short and stocky Italian man. There are all kinds of people working on the team, and there are people of all races.

Among several employees, the one who impressed Bill the most was the bald and slightly fat William Darry. This white man about 1.7 meters tall looked quite masculine, but spoke softly, and the three women in the technical department Colleagues work with sisters.

Mr. Ferrari is still inspecting the progress of various places as the boss, and Adam has already gone to discuss the details of the stockings with Ms. Anna from the technical department.Although the cornerback was indeed a bit ugly, he had a good relationship with the opposite sex, and even Mr. Darry was attracted to join their chat.

"Your office will probably be decorated like this. Here is a large beech wood desk, and a huge Under Armor icon is hung on the wall behind it. There are a few single sofas and a glass coffee table here, as a reception area... ..."

The boss came here rarely, and Sophia brought the person in charge of the decoration team to introduce the layout of the office to him.

Consistent with the technical department, Bill's office will also be decorated in an American modern style, that is, a large number of beige and cool tones are used. The colors of sofas and chairs are relatively plain, emphasizing the sense of lines and squareness, and focusing on simplicity and clarity.

"Can you get me a rest room with a bed in it, sometimes I'm tired from work, and I can take a short break."

The only thing that makes Bill dissatisfied is that his office has no extra rest space.If the president's office doesn't have a bed, what can be used to carry the dreams of female secretaries?

Sophia was amused by the boss, "How many times a week do you come to the company? This floor is only so big, and the clothing company has a lot of employees, so we don't have enough space."

She has a relatively wide figure and a large chest. Her magical laughter is very penetrating, and it spreads to the ears of the people around her. Even Bill was laughed.

Mr. Ferrari didn't bother to find a bed for himself. After finishing what the boss should do, he personally discussed with the employees about opening another brand and hiring a general manager.

"Well... I think, you can go to those headhunters to do this, such as Heidrick & Struggles in Chicago, Korn Ferry International in Los Angeles, etc., they are very efficient after taking the money. With our professional experience, we have no access to it. How many professional managers meet your requirements, letting us find someone will delay your career."

Mr. Darry whispered his opinion, the current economic situation is not good, and it is very difficult for him to find another job with a weekly salary of 380 US dollars, so he sincerely hopes that this new company can survive, at least grow healthily .

"Headhunting company?" Bill felt sorry for the money, "They charge a lot, don't they?"

This matter is related to his job prospects, and William Darry is very concerned, "It is about a quarter to a third of the annual salary of the general manager. According to your assumptions, we will at least be a medium-sized enterprise in the future. Only a professional manager with an annual salary of [-] to [-] knives can manage the entire company well. It is convenient to find a manager from a big factory, not to mention his own knowledge and experience, just dig some middle-level designers, business planning, operations and other talents many."

Mr. Ferrari keenly heard the word designer. Although it is important to grab a spokesperson, the product is the key to making Under Armour bigger and stronger, especially basketball shoes. In this regard, you must not save money.

"It sounds feasible, Sophia, please contact those headhunters."

Boss Bill ordered in style.

PS: Ask for a recommendation ticket and ask for a monthly ticket.
