Chapter 1635 [1634] Mei Dai Garment Factory
Only Wen Tiejun, who has an elementary school education level, has a poor handwriting, but he has a very clear understanding of the calculations. He didn't understand Ding Wei's design drawings very well, so he naturally didn't know how much it would cost to buy them. He thought the little girl came over to ask, but she didn't expect to visit them again and again. To be honest, he was quite surprised.
"You don't dislike me. I can't understand your so-called design drawings? I know you're called designers, but designers shouldn't have a better way out in those state-owned factories? Why come to me? You saw it too. I'm so big. The clothes I make are bought from the market and then made accordingly. My helpers are all rural women I found in the village. They can't understand your design at all. You'd better find someone who is more reliable to cooperate. I can't give you a high price, nor can I achieve the effect you want!"
In this era, the copyright is not complete. There are many clothing factories like Wen Tiejun, which are popular and what they do. It doesn’t matter if they don’t have a design. Just buy it. After buying it, study it and make it yourself. As long as someone collects the made clothes, it will make a profit.
Ding Wei is a student and a doctor in the future. She has no extra time to open a factory by herself, but she can invest and invest in technology. However, the prerequisite is that their factory cannot be a three-no factory, and must have a formal label and operating qualification so that she will not be banned at any time in the future.
There is no big problem with Wen Tiejun. We can try to work together for two years to see if we can bring their factory up. If it gets up, we will continue to improve it. The most important thing now is that they can produce the design style she will want in the future.
Can't understand the design drawings?
It doesn't matter, Ding Wei took her own design drawings and personally selected the fabric. Then, in front of all the female employees, she made a dress that matched the current popular elements in less than an hour, with a knee-length dress and ruffles leveling. Even if it was a single color, the effect of trying on it was quite amazing.
"We don't have to make floral skirts. We can do this pure color, such as white, black and red. If you want to add some floral embellishments, you can't have more. If you have more, it won't look good. You can make another similar style. You just saw how I operated it. Now who doesn't understand, I can give a detailed explanation."
As he said that, he turned around in front of Wen Tiejun in this new product. As the skirt rotated, the flowing hem seemed to be swaying into everyone's heart. With Ding Wei's outstanding appearance, Wen Tiejun has a special liking for this skirt, but-
"It looks good, just the fabric of this skirt... I don't have much here, I need to spend money to get the materials. You know we are small,"
"Boss Wen, are you sure you want to make this dress? Have you thought about it?"
Wen Tiejun looked serious: "Sister, you look so beautiful, aren't you a fool if you don't wear it? And there are too many flower skirts on the market. Some are brightly colored, but not flowing enough. The shortest one is just knees. But I still think the long skirt looks good. Although your black skirt has no sleeves, you can make a small vest with two braids so casually, which is simply my dream. People!"
Then if I make small pastoral flowers, wouldn’t you like it more?
Seeing that Wen Tiejun had already approved her design plan, Ding Wei signaled him to walk out openly.
"Boss Wen,"
"Little sister, if you don't dislike me, just call me brother, what kind of boss we are, I dare not be a boss,"
"Okay, then I'll call you Brother Wen. If you want to agree to cooperate with me, I hope we will improve the industrial and commercial taxation set and find a decent site. This place... is really too simple, at least a factory, right?"
"The factory? Some, some, I'm not sure about it. I've spent all the money I've earned in the past two years on investment factories. I can build it at the end of this year. It's enough to move it over. It's not far from here, just five or six kilometers, and the area is much larger than this. In addition to the factory, I also built an employee dormitory and an office area and a canteen. You have to be interested and you can take you over and take a look in a few days."
Ding Wei now understands why Wen Tiejun looks so poor. It is obvious that his profit margin shouldn't be so poor. It turns out that he invested money in the factory. For this reason, Ding Wei is more sure that this person has a future.
"The factory is the storefront. Many partners used to think that my storefront looked too unrestrained and crowded in a bunch of houses. The neighbors around us complained countless times that we were too noisy and bright at night. I had wanted to move out a long time ago. I used to do it secretly. After gradually letting go, we worked overtime. At the beginning, we couldn't sell it, so we did it at night and went out to sell it in the daytime. This is how the money was saved. So I swear that if I make money, I will build the factory first."
"As for the industrial and commercial taxation you mentioned, I have it too. It's too troublesome to do it. I have to find an accountant alone. I can't get it alone. At first, my wife did this, but after I got it, I couldn't get it, so I was too lazy to care about it. If you think that's more important, then I can't do it again?"
Ding Wei nodded, "This is not a big deal. The most important thing is that we have to register a brand to prevent counterfeit and shoddy. In the future, you don't go to the street to buy some other people's samples and come back to dress up. Just use my designs to gradually create our own brand. To be honest, Brother Wen, I am still a junior. After this summer, I am a senior and a medical student. Although I don't have time to arrange all this, I can send someone to contact you. I didn't want to get to this point so soon, but this time I came and met Brother Wen. I felt that Brother Wen was a real businessman, so I developed a tendency to cooperate."
Wen Tiejun looked at Ding Wei with a look of surprise: "The little girl is amazing. Why do those who study medicine know how to design clothing?"
"Studying medicine is for your family, and self-studying design is a hobby. I never thought about participating in any fashion design competition. If we register our own brand, I can participate in this competition in the future and strive to get the brand out as soon as possible. So Brother Wen, I am not simply cooperating with you, but I need to invest in shares. You are responsible for sales and daily management, I am responsible for design and supervision, and you are responsible for accountants, and I are responsible for one, and there is a mutually restrictive relationship. The dividend is 50 or 50 points. Do you agree?"
Wen Tiejun raised his eyebrows, did not rush to answer, and looked at Ding Wei after being silent for a moment.
"Ding Wei, I admit that you are very courageous and talented, but you ask me for a 50% share when you come up. I think I have to think about it carefully. Moreover, I have clearly registered the company, so why do I still need to register a trademark? These are too far away for me. With my current scale, I can't use these at all...."
"Brother Wen, don't worry, these are just preliminary proposals, and they didn't say that you should implement them immediately. They just said that you would give a vaccination in the future. This time we will follow my design drawings, and I don't want your money either. Two thousand skirts are my design fee. If you think after this cooperation, the sales volume can be achieved, and the profit margin is higher than before, then let's continue to talk, step by step, no business can be achieved overnight, aren't they all exploring and moving forward?"
Wen Tiejun agrees with this, but—
"Just just your design drawing, you dare to ask for two thousand clothes?" This is too expensive, right? The little girl really dares to ask for it.
Wen Tiejun quickly made up the calculations. The cost price was equal to eight yuan, and two thousand pieces were 16,000 yuan, which was the cost price!
"No, it's too expensive, I can't afford it. Instead of this, I might as well spend a few dollars on the street to buy a sample and prepare it yourself!"
Ding Wei was amused and laughed: "Brother Wen, you can't think so. You have to think that this is designed by our factory itself. There is no one on the market. If you register a trademark first, who is seeking death to make a copy, we can increase their compensation. The compensation obtained by just a lawsuit will be more than 6,000 yuan! Besides, you just calculate the cost, why don't you calculate the profit? The cost is eight yuan, can you sell it for twenty yuan?"
Wen Tiejun stared straight: "Twenty dollars a skirt? Who are you suckers?"
Ding Wei smiled steadily and looked confident: "If Brother Wen doesn't try it, how can I know if I can't sell it? If it's twenty yuan high, it can be 19.8 or 18.8 yuan, and you can even find counters to put on counters in the mall. These can be used as high-end sales channels. Let's do this. I want to give this design drawing to Brother Wen. You can try it and try it to see if it can be sold. If it's sold, the sales volume is pretty good. Then you can give me two thousand pieces of goods. Let's talk about the rest of the cooperation later."
"Little girl is bold, aren't you afraid that I will betray the debt?" Wen Tiejun joked with a smile in his eyes, but Ding Wei was not worried at all.
"It's okay, it just proves that I misread the person and didn't lose anything. It's just a design drawing. You can't steal the things in my mind. I can design the first set and design countless sets. As long as I dare and as long as I want, I won't worry about not finding a partner to cooperate!"
Wen Tiejun looked at Ding Wei with appreciation: "Okay, I'll say this to you. I'll agree. You go back first and wait for my news. Ten days, at most ten days, I'll go find you. Leave me an address."
"Brother, summer is short, hurry up," After the explanation, Ding Wei walked out of Meidai Clothing Factory with a backpack on her back and looked relaxed.
Ding Wei, who couldn't rest, then started running to the shoe factory and gave Jiang Ni more than 1,000 yuan in shoes, all types, including summer sandals, autumn leather shoes, sports shoes, and light cloth shoes worn by her grandparents.
She sent her sister two thousand yuan for her inner clothes, socks, scarves, and various small accessories. Anyway, she was either on the treasure hunt or on the delivery platform every day. She would never do it herself if she could spend money to hire someone, because just carrying these goods to her place where she lives would make her so tired that her back was sore. Only then did she realize how convenient it was to have a car.
In less than ten days, on the seventh day, Wen Tiejun found the guesthouse where Ding Wei was.
He pulled her directly and wanted to treat her to a meal. It was a seafood meal. Sitting at the intersection of the food stall, Wen Tiejun drank a cool beer.
He looked at Ding Wei with a starlight look: "Oh, auntie, you are my Wen Tiejun's money tree. You don't know how good the skirt you designed is. I didn't dare to buy twenty yuan. It's priced at 18.8 yuan. At the beginning, I didn't even have the confidence. But I didn't expect that I didn't need to shout at all. I just found a few girls wearing those skirts and wandering around the shopping malls with the most crowded people. Many customers ran to my stall. The red ones were red and white and black. As you said, these three colors were sold well. The white skirt was puffed sleeves, the red skirt was gauze edged, and the black ones were made of small vests. The effect was great! The first batch of five hundred pieces, I sold out one day, one day! I have been buying clothes for five or six years, and I have never been so passionate this time!"
"In order to save fabric, I controlled the cost to seven yuan and made a small bag of the same color, which is the one on your design drawing. You can put a change or handkerchief in summer. I didn't expect that it was praised by many customers, saying that our design is good, very humane, and it also provides them with convenience. I was worried about where to put some small things in summer. Now that I have this small pocket, I can't tell how convenient it is!"
"I sold 500 pieces for 18.8 yuan for seven yuan. I made nearly 6,000 yuan for this batch of work alone. You are right. I can't lose the big picture because of a small amount, so I promise you to give you two thousand pieces. As for the design fee for our first cooperation, we will still use this number of pieces as the basis for the subsequent cooperation. As for future cooperation, I want to slow down. Is it okay?"
It was said that it was a ease, but it was actually time for each other to get to know each other. Ding Wei felt that this was understandable and agreed very happily.
"Brother Wen, you're working hard this time. How many people are you doing in total? Did you work overtime?"
"I made money this time, and I will find some people when I go back. I have to register the brand you mentioned. How about registering our Meidai?"
Ding Wei shrugged indifferently, "Yes, Meidai can build a brand in the future, but if there are partners in the future, I will name my own brand myself. You can use this name first. Remember to add anti-counterfeiting marks to your label or clothes. Only with evidence can you protect your legitimate rights and interests."
Wen Tiejun nodded with great benefit, "Cheng, brother remembers it, you are really a pity. You are a business material. What a pity, oh, what medicine do you learn?"
Ding Wei looked at him seriously, "Brother, I'm sorry, your thyroid may have some problems, which are slightly swollen than normal people. After leaving me, go to the hospital for a checkup to see if it is a nodule. Don't worry, this is not a big problem. It is related to your frequent staying up late and getting angry. If you have a better temper in the future, don't lose your temper at any time. Many diseases come because of anger."
Wen Tiejun thought Ding Wei was joking, but he didn't know that Ding Wei put away the smile on her lips and spoke calmly.
"I noticed it last time, but I forgot to tell you, this time you told me what the meaning of studying medicine is. In fact, this is one of them. I don't hide it from you. Since I studied medicine, I have saved many people. Many people have the opportunity to be reborn because of my reminder. Every time we save people, we will sublimate our hearts and feel that we have saved merits. What a glory this is? So, no matter how outstanding I am in other aspects, I think studying medicine is the way I want to go."
Wen Tiejun subconsciously touched the location mentioned by Ding Wei just now. Thinking about the fact that family trivial matters have indeed aroused many conflicts in the past few years, and getting angry is common. The root of everything is because of money. Now, looking at the little girl in front of me, I suddenly feel that I have only the charity left.
"Vivi said it well, I'm superficial. Don't worry, as long as we work together for a day, I won't say anything about you. As for whether we can cooperate for a long time in the future, let's go with the flow. Give me another ten days to send you five hundred pieces first and sell them. We will send you slowly. Before mid-August, two thousand pieces will be sent to you. How about it?"
Ding Wei felt that this time card was good and he also received his attention, so she simply gave me some advice again.
"Brother, after mid-August, you don't have to make short-sleeved sleeves. You can change the sleeves of the skirt to long-sleeved. If it is autumn, a coat will be worn on the outside, and the effect will be very beautiful, especially for office workers. If you have the conditions for the lower body, you can make a base. Pants, black pants, are tighter than bodybuilding pants, similar to stockings, but they are a little thicker than stockings, and they can be either flesh-colored or black. If you wear small leather shoes on the lower body, you can become a popular model in spring and autumn!"
Although this cost will be higher, the price can also increase by one dollar, set at 19.8 yuan.
After listening to Ding Wei's suggestion, Wen Tiejun was very happy, "This idea is good, so do you want to change it?"
Ding Wei nodded, "Then let's just have a thousand summer clothes and a thousand autumn clothes,"
"Okay, the brother you told me has remembered it. So, would you please write me an address or would you pick up the goods yourself?"
"Brother, please call me if you are done. I will find someone to pull it and then take it to the train station. I have a train conductor I know and can help me transport it."
"Hey, this idea is good, so that's it. How long do you have to stay here?"
"When my brother's five hundred pieces come out, I will leave with the goods. I will leave you a phone number and address for the follow-up cooperation, and we will communicate."
Basically, these two thousand pieces are enough for my sister and Jiang Ni to sell until the end of the summer vacation.
In order to have a matching shoe to match the dress, Ding Wei specially ordered the remaining money for small leather shoes and some expensive tweed coats. When Ding Wei got Wen Tiejun's 500 pieces of goods, she basically spent all the money. She didn't ask them to send money to her, thinking that it would be more cost-effective to settle the score together when she went back, otherwise it wouldn't be safe for her to bring so much money on the road.
In early August, Ding Wei boarded the return train, and her destination was Wuhan Railway Station. She had to meet with Dingxiang and the others first. As for Jiang Ni, she was not afraid. Even if she couldn't sell it all, it didn't matter. The shop belonged to her own home and could still be sold next year, but Dingxiang and the others couldn't do it. She had to go and help them sell it together.
