The Pentium Era - South to North

Mr. Li knew that Zhang Chen was anxious, and he was also anxious. He put on his work clothes himself and ran to the air-jet loom in the workshop. In his early years, Mr. Li worked as a technician at the National Cotton Factory No. 3 in Nantong. , Nantong National Cotton No. 3 Factory, formerly known as Dasheng No. 3 Factory, is a key state-owned large-scale cotton textile enterprise. The town where the National Cotton No. 3 Factory is located is called No. 3 Factory Town.

From the bottom of his heart, Li always hopes to make fabrics that satisfy Zhang Chen. He listened to Zhang Chen’s introduction to his fashion show and knew that with the strength of Zhang Chen’s company, Zhang Chen’s personal design ability, and how to do things This time, the style will definitely be a big event and will cause a sensation inside and outside the industry.

This fashion show, while displaying fashion, is also a display of new fabrics. Mr. Li could even ask Zhang Chen to bring over the film of the fashion show and use it for publicity. He has done this before. , both Zhang Chen and He Hongmei are listed in their factory's brochures. Their honor is not his honor.

Zhang Chen and He Hongmei were both very generous. When Mr. Li told them his thoughts, they all agreed to Mr. Li's request. They are not brothers. Zhang Chen said, what is there to say? Mr. Li, if you If you don't mind someone being ugly, just use it.

If he can make fabrics that Zhang Chen is satisfied with, Mr. Li believes that this fabric will definitely attract the attention of the entire market, and then it will be his business.

The size of Mr. Li's company has more than doubled compared to when Zhang Chen and He Hongmei first came here. They rely on not only the booming business of Zhang Chen and his company in recent years, but also the business brought by Zhang Chen to them. Of, not just business, but also goodwill.

Many customers were hesitant. When comparing products from several factories, they knew that Ban Mu Tian's fabrics were supplied by them. Without hesitation, they placed orders with them, even if the price was a little more expensive than other factories.

Ban Mu Tian is the leading brand of cotton and linen clothing in the country. The factories they trust and have long-term cooperation with are a symbol of quality.

Mr. Li very much hopes that he can successfully try out new fabrics this time, which will not only help Zhang Chen and others, but also become a guarantee for his own subsequent business.

This is how working in a factory is. Only those who have done it will understand that there is actually nothing to do. It can be said to be the most tiring and torturous business.

When there is no business, you worry about the business. When there is business, you worry about the output. When the business is booming, there is no other way. You can only expand the production capacity. After the production capacity is expanded, the orders cannot be connected at all. As long as the business declines slightly, What's causing your decline is not your performance, but the countless eyes that are watching you, waiting for work to be done.

In this way, the scale of the factory is getting bigger and bigger, but the actual money is not much more. Even if the cash on the book increases, the increase may only be bank loans.

The fixed assets of the company on the books are indeed increasing, but all of these are only meaningful to you. The factory is located in the suburbs, and it is still industrial land with limited value-added. You even have the right to re-develop the land and change the use of the land. There are no rights.

Those factories and equipment are only valuable to those who can use them. To those who can't use them, the factories are just a bunch of buildings that need to be demolished and rebuilt. The equipment is just a pile of scrap metal piled in a dilapidated house.

Just like the Hangcheng Oil Refinery that was demolished by Liu Ligan, decades of continuous investment and construction allowed a small amount of wealth to be accumulated, but when it came time to demolish, those large-scale equipment could not be put into operation until they were frugal. What's the use of the equipment? Aren't they all sold as scrap metal?

It's no wonder that people like Lao Ni left the factory and went to Hangzhou, so they left the factory in Keqiao to their daughter. They had no interest in the factory at all.

How great it is to start a company. The "Splendid Jiangnan" office building he bought has now increased by more than 10,000 per square meter. It is easy to cash out. He closed the company and sold the house anytime and anywhere, and he made money.

Not to mention the business that Chen Yaqin and the others are doing, the things that Chen Yaqin and the others are doing make no matter how big the money is, it turns into small money, no matter how big the order is, it turns into a small order that is not worth mentioning. Can't stand that intraday curve, moving up and down a centimeter.

Another batch of sample fabrics came out. Mr. Li looked at it himself and felt that it was not ideal, let alone showing it to Zhang Chen.

"Stop, stop, stop, turn off the machine." Mr. Li said to his men.

The roaring machine stopped. Mr. Li sighed and threw the fabric aside. He saw his subordinates standing there, looking at him, waiting for his further instructions. Mr. Li said, you all Take a break first.

He felt that he could no longer continue like a headless fly without any sense of direction, so Mr. Li walked out.

Mr. Li walked to Zhang Chen's room. He saw Zhang Chen sitting at the table, holding a pen and drawing in a sketchbook. What he drew was a design drawing of clothing. When Mr. Li came in, he smiled at him.

Mr. Li walked over and looked at the design draft on the table. His heart moved. Mr. Li said:

"Mr. Zhang, can you draw the fabric you want with a brush, like this, preferably in color, and what kind of final effect do you want it to have? When I saw it, I felt like it It’s bottomed out.”

Zhang Chen's eyes lit up and he thought, "You're right. I can't explain it. Why can't you still draw it?" Zhang Chen quickly agreed and asked, "Mr. Li, do you have any paint in your factory for painting?"

“In the factory office, there are advertising paints for writing slogans and publishing blackboards,” said Mr. Li.

"Okay, that's enough." After Zhang Chen said it, he thought for a moment and said forget it, I'd better go to the city and be back soon.

Zhang Chen thought that the advertising paints in the factory were nothing more than three or four kinds of red, yellow and white. They could be used, but the problem was that there would definitely not be lead drawing paper in the factory. The color drafts could be drawn on ordinary white paper. , the effect will be very different, it is better to go to the city for a run.

"Do you want to buy paint? I'll ask someone to accompany you. You are a foreigner and don't know where the store is." Mr. Li said.

Zhang Chen said yes.

The two people walked outside. Mr. Li stood in the corridor and shouted to the office building opposite. Xiao Li ran out. Mr. Li said to him, "Quickly, you go shopping with Mr. Zhang."

He Hongmei from next door came out and asked, "What do you want to buy? I'll go."

Zhang Chen said forget it, it's a matter of a few hours, I'll go by myself and come back as soon as I go.

Zhang Chen and Xiao Li drove to the city. When they came back, they brought back paints, pens and lead drawing paper. They also bought two new sketchbooks. Of the two books Zhang Chen brought, one of them had been finished. , and another one, which is almost full of drawings. It seems that after free time, it is really a waste of paper. Zhang Chen also draws in this way to calm his emotions and summon his inspiration.

He Hongmei cut the lead drawing paper into sixteen pages and put it on the table. Zhang Chen picked up the pen, dipped it in paint, and quickly drew a color draft of the design without using a pencil.

Mr. Li became excited when he saw it. He said, Mr. Zhang, I can see that your fabric needs to have the breathability and comfort of linen and the gloss of nylon fabric. This is not enough. You also need There's a drape, right?

Zhang Chen nodded and said, yes.

Mr. Li thought for a while and started writing on the paper. He explained while writing. The writing was for Xiao Li to read, and the explanation was for Zhang Chen and He Hongmei. Mr. Li said:

"We can do this, use cooked weaving, oh, this is our jargon. Cooked weaving generally refers to yarn-dyed cloth, and raw weaving refers to dyed cloth. We use cooked weaving, three kinds of yarn, three colors, and it comes out like this The effect will be good.

"The warp yarn is made of 32s linen yarn, the first weft yarn is made of nylon yarn 6-FDY Glossy 70D, which has a very good luminous effect, and the second weft yarn is dyed viscose yarn, which can increase the drape of the fabric. Also, because the colors of the three types of yarns are different, after the finished product comes out, the colors will be very rich, and there will be that kind of sparkling, seemingly uncertain effect.

"In order to increase its drape, we use fine twill to weave it according to the specifications of 133X86. Do you understand?"

Mr. Li said, Zhang Chen shook his head and said that I had no idea at all. Mr. Li laughed and said to Zhang Chen, in the second half of the sentence, I am not talking to you, but to him. Xiao Li nodded and said, I knew.

"Then go make arrangements quickly." Mr. Li said.

Xiao Li said yes and ran out immediately.

Mr. Li picked up the color manuscript and asked Zhang Chen: "Mr. Zhang, can you give this painting to me?"

Zhang Chen said of course.

Mr. Li told Zhang Chen and He Hongmei, "I'll leave first. Once they've reeded and are ready to turn on, I'll have someone call you."

After more than three hours, Xiao Li came over and asked them to come over. When they arrived at the workshop, Mr. Li saw them arriving and told the workers to turn on the machine.

The air-jet loom started and made a clicking sound. When the fabric came out bit by bit, Zhang Chen and He Hongmei laughed when they saw it, "Yes!"

Zhang Chen and Mr. Li said: "You can drink tonight."

Mr. Li laughed and said, "Okay, I'll stop after getting drunk."

…

Zhang Chen was really drunk during this meal, but he still insisted on rushing back to Hangzhou that night.

Mr. Li knew that he was anxious, and since He Hongmei had not drunk much wine, Mr. Li did not force him to keep her. Mr. Li asked Xiao Li to put both kinds of fabric samples into the trunk of Zhang Chen's Audi. The two parties agreed that ten See you all in Hangzhou at the end of January when the fashion show opens.

He Hongmei pushed the passenger seat back a little, and then let Zhang Chen sit in it. After Zhang Chen sat in, He Hongmei fastened the seat belt on him and asked softly, "Is it comfortable?" and did he need to move the chair further? Put some in the back?

Zhang Chen said there was no need, that was it.

He Hongmei then walked to the driver's seat, waved to Old Li and Xiao Li, got in the car and left.

Looking at the back of Zhang Chen's car, Mr. Li felt a little emotional. He said to Xiao Li: "If you can find a wife like this, I will feel relieved."

Xiao Li was startled for a moment, then retorted: "This He Hongmei is not Mr. Zhang's wife."

"Okay." Mr. Li said, "Then it would be great to have such a woman by your side. It's a pity that Xiao He only has Mr. Zhang in his eyes. Otherwise, I would really beg Mr. Zhang to take you there." Let’s make a match together.”

Xiao Li laughed, and Mr. Li glared at him and said, "Why, isn't Xiao He good?"

Xiao Li quickly said: "Okay, but she is her and I am me. By the way, how can you tell that Mr. Zhang is the only one in He Hongmei's eyes?"

Mr. Li made a "pop" sound, hit the back of Xiao Li's head, and cursed: "You idiot, you can't even see this. No wonder you haven't found anyone who looks like you until now."
