National Tide 1980

But how else can we say that Ning Weimin is not an ordinary person?

The seemingly unsolvable problem was perfectly solved in Ning Weimin's hands.

Rather than wait for summer to pass, he took the initiative.

Very successfully, through its own design and secondary processing, these corduroy women's pants have been modified to suit trends and seasons.

Aren’t trousers of this texture inappropriate for the season?

Then just change the trousers into shorts.

Isn't the color dull and the style old-fashioned?

It doesn't matter, just follow the same routine of changing the skirt, add some bright colors and appropriate modifications.

For example, first add a strip of colored teeth around the waistband and the edges of the trouser pockets.

Then add brightly colored linings to the trouser legs, such as gouache, fruit green, orange...

Then sew openings on both sides of the trouser legs, and nail buckles on both sides of the smashed trouser legs.

When wearing this way, turn up the trousers and button them up, it will be much more fashionable.

Although this style will become commonplace in a few decades.

But this era can definitely be called a disruptive style innovation.

As for the cut trouser legs, don’t waste them, they can be used as bags.

In the same way, add bright-colored cloth as a background, add base, school bag straps, add locks, buckles, and buttons.

A simple, elegant and beautiful corduroy single shoulder bag for women is ready.

It's like one item becomes two items.

As for the workers' income, the sewing club's commission and processing accessories are included in it.

The total cost of the two items therefore increased by one dollar and sixty cents to eleven dollars and sixty cents.

But in comparison, Ning Weimin's wholesale price is even more outrageous.

Not only did he require a pair of shorts and a bag to be shipped, but the price of the two items increased to seventeen yuan.

To be honest, such conditions are not very attractive in the eyes of self-employed people.

Because after all, shorts cannot be compared with trousers, the price must be half lower.

According to the general price of corduroy trousers in stores for 12 yuan, shorts can be sold for 10 yuan.

As for the average women's bags on the market, except for those made of genuine leather, they are not expensive.

The artificial leather ones are basically six or seven yuan, and the canvas and plaid ones are even cheaper, only three or four yuan.

The two corduroy products transformed by Ning Weimin are definitely the most expensive wholesale products since the sewing club opened.

Anyone who takes over such a product would be unsure.

The only thing worthy of praise is that the style is really good and looks quite attractive.

Something unique on the market.

It should not be completely unsaleable.

There will always be girls who regard chasing fashion as their first meaning of existence and are willing to pay more to be special than others.

Almost all self-employed businesses receive more than ten or twenty sets of goods to try out.

Compared with hundreds of dresses, you have to be much more cautious when competing for hundreds of dresses.

The person who got the most goods was "Zhao Xiaoliu" who had a stall under the archery tower, with fifty sets.

This is because he was the first person to make money from the neighborhood committee aunt, so he had to support her, so he asked for more.

But in fact, each of them has greatly underestimated the temptation of new styles of clothing to people.

To put it bluntly, because our Chinese people have suppressed this aspect for too long before, there must be an anti-traditional desire.

This also leads to the fact that in the early days when everyone opens their sleepy eyes to see the world, the more exaggerated and unique the style, the more popular and sought after it is.

In fact, since the 1980s, the rise of any kind of clothing has been driven by anti-traditional materials and styles.

For example, bell-bottom pants, bat shirts, and jeans, no matter the color, style, or texture, are a little more novel.

As long as someone wears it, it will become popular like a whirlwind.

To put it bluntly, people's pursuit of unique characteristics must actually come before people blindly follow the crowd.

It is these two points that are both contradictory and closely related to each other that constitute the unique characteristics of clothing consumption in this era.

The result is unique in the market precisely for that reason.

Precisely because young women are the most sensitive group to clothing styles.

The two things Ning Weimin made this time made people's eyes brighter, making it even harder to let go.

As soon as it was launched on the market, it became a hit, and it was sold out within a short time of being put on the stall.

Those young girls simply cannot resist the temptation of such novelty.

Even if they frown, they will donate generously.

Selling a pair of shorts for the equivalent of trousers is nothing new.

A women's bag can cost seven or eight yuan, and there may even be people who want it for more.

Because many self-employed people witnessed the fight between two girls who refused to give in to each other when they were selling the last item.

Even the bag that a female stall owner carried on her body to collect banknotes was forcibly bought.

It would be really inappropriate to force someone to take off their pants in broad daylight.

The female stall owner couldn't keep the corduroy shorts she was wearing.

Needless to say, some self-employed people who looked down upon these things at first suddenly realized how marketable this batch of goods was.

So this group of self-employed people immediately launched a crazy counterattack.

Just like I did with the dress, I went back to hold it in my hands and begged Aunt Bian to buy it in bulk.

Not only were the thousands of items in stock wiped out by them.

For those things that are still being made later, the sewing club will make as many as they can and sell them.

Because this group of self-employed people come to the door every day to ask for help.

This time, even on Xiushui Street, Ning Weimin failed to favor Luo Guangliang and left little room for them.

Of course, the wholesale price has also been adjusted to 20 yuan as the supply exceeds demand.

The nearly doubling of profits again provided the strongest footnote for Ning Weimin's godlike operation.

To be honest, Ning Weimin's two thousand pairs of shorts seemed like a lot, but when thrown into the market of the capital city with a population of 4.5 million, it was just a splash.

If it weren't for the underdeveloped information exchange conditions these days.

Clothing production is still a monopoly of state-owned enterprises.

There are not many self-employed people who can break away from the business level of working alone in a car and a stall.

Ning Weimin should continue to buy raw materials and entrust a clothing manufacturer to mass-produce such shorts for him.

If there are another 100,000 items, it will not be a problem for the market to digest them.

What’s more, if it doesn’t work well, it could be imitated by others and form a popular trend sweeping the capital, even from north to south.

Unfortunately, reality does not yet have such conditions.

Ning Weimin could only watch this great opportunity slip away from his eyes and make a small profit.

But even so, these shorts caught the attention of true fashion trendsetters.

By coincidence, a pattern maker from the design department of Pierre Carton accidentally discovered Ning Weimin's "works".

Without knowing it, I bought one and brought it to the company to present to Song Huagui.

Later, the shorts were mailed to France by Song Huagui.

What was even more unexpected was that Pierre Carton was so inspired that he wanted to design his own new work based on this color scheme.

Even for this reason, Song Huagui, on behalf of the master, rewarded the person who discovered the shorts with a 500-yuan foreign exchange coupon.

But as a result, Ning Weimin was even more afraid to let people know that he was related to these shorts.

Because if you think about it, you will know that if this matter is really leaked, how should Song Huagui treat him?

Should he be punished or praised?

Even he himself felt that the situation would be very embarrassing when the time came, and he felt very embarrassed for this eldest sister.

Therefore, it is better to hide one's clumsiness than to reveal one's skill, and it is better to pretend to be confused.

Besides, the old French man was kind to him.

He himself is embarrassed to collect copyright fees from others.

Come on, if you suffer a little loss in terms of copyright, just suffer a little loss.

Who makes him kind?
