Rebirth of the Industrial Tycoon

  Chapter 91 Doing business must be one step ahead

  In an era when leather clothing is more expensive, there are two places where a large number of leather clothing is needed, one is the army, and the other is the public security department.

  These two units have the need for outdoor patrols. They need to provide warm clothes for soldiers or police officers, but too heavy clothes are too bulky and unfavorable for operation, so leather clothing has become a very good choice for warmth.

  When Zhu Shicong heard about leather clothing, he immediately thought of the order from the military division.

  Wang Haibin immediately shook his head: “Zhu, what Li Weidong produces is not a kind of leather coat, but a small leather jacket. The length is only down to the waist, and it is still tight on the body.”

   "This kind of stuff is only bought by fools!" Zhu Shicong said casually.

  Wang Haibin suddenly became a little embarrassed, and said in his heart: "There is a fool in my family."

  Zhu Shicong asked again: "Then do you know which unit placed the order for the garment factory?"

   "It's not a unit." Wang Haibin shook his head: "This small leather jacket produced by a garment factory should be sold on the surface."

  "This Li Weidong, can he still find the sales channels of the supply and marketing cooperative? This kid is somewhat capable!" Zhu Shicong said in surprise.

   "This leather jacket really hasn't been sold to a supply and marketing agency. It was sold by self-employed people who set up a street stall." Wang Haibin replied.

  "The self-employed person who set up a street stall? Ha ha ha..." Zhu Shicong suddenly laughed, his face full of disdain.

  Zhu Shicong, the core leader of a large state-owned enterprise, of course look down on self-employed people. In his view, self-employed people are a group of unscrupulous and unemployed vagrants, who are serious people when they work in state-owned enterprises.

  In the 1980s, this was a very common phenomenon, especially in the north, where state-owned enterprises were the mainstay. Even in later generations, when the private economy has grown in several times, there are many leaders of state-owned enterprise giants who look down on the heads of private enterprises.

Zhu Shicong scorned his lips and said with contempt: "Then Li Weidong dared to contract a garment factory. I thought he was so capable. I didn't expect to do business with self-employed people on the roadside stall. It seems that his garment factory, It can't last too long!"

  ……

  There are many small clothing workshops in southern Jiangsu. The business model of these clothing workshops is also very simple, which is to do what is popular and what to make money.

When bat shirts were popular, clothing workshops produced bat shirts; when flared pants were popular, clothing workshops produced flared pants; when jeans were popular, clothing workshops began to produce jeans again; when sportswear was popular, manufacturing The clothing workshop began to produce sportswear again.

  The millions of small merchants in Wenzhou, Yiwu and other places will bring these clothes to all parts of the country with people back and shoulders.

  Those vendors who come back to buy goods will also bring the most popular clothing trends. When a popular sample is brought back, the garment workshop in southern Jiangsu will start full production, and similar products will soon appear on the market.

  In this situation, the clothing department of the state-run supply and marketing cooperatives naturally cannot compete with Wenzhou vendors, and even many state-run supply and marketing cooperatives will go to Wenzhou vendors to get the goods.

  As the end of the year is approaching, many Wenzhou vendors go home to buy the last batch of goods.

  The owner of the stall was one of them, but he did not come back empty-handed, but brought a sample of a leather jacket.

  The next day, the stall owner took the leather jacket sample and went to a large-scale clothing workshop.

  The owner of this clothing workshop is a fellow villager of Zhang Zhanzhu, and he is still a distant cousin of Zhang Zhanzhu in terms of seniority.

"Brother Fifth, can you help me see, can you produce this kind of leather jacket? This thing is very popular now. If it can be made, it will definitely make a lot of money!" The stall owner Zhang handed the leather jacket to The workshop owner.

  The owner of this workshop is ranked fifth at home, so the stall owner Zhang calls him "fifth brother".

  Fifth brother took the leather jacket, did not look closely, but touched it with his hand, and said, "I can't do this thing here."

  "Fifth brother, take a closer look. This is not genuine leather, but artificial leather." The stall owner Zhang said hurriedly.

"I know it's made of artificial leather, and I know it's a new type of artificial leather. Last week, the six sons of San Bo's family in the village showed this thing to me. This material seems to be imported from abroad. , We can't buy it at all." Brother Fifth said.

   "Then use other artificial leather, imitate it, and use the same style, can't it? It's a big deal, let's sell it cheaper." The stall owner Zhang then asked.

Brother Fifth shook his head: "No, ordinary artificial leather can't be imitated like this. Let’s not say that the texture, color and softness of ordinary artificial leather are not as good as this new material. Even the taste, you can’t stand it on your body, and ordinary artificial leather. It's not breathable yet, and if you sweat it when you wear it, you can faint people if you get closer."

  Hearing this big case, the owner Zhang suddenly looked disappointed.

Brother Fifth continued: "Brother, what you can think of, others can certainly think of, if ordinary artificial leather can be used to make clothes, it will not be done early! Now ordinary artificial leather is used to make a sofa or floor leather. It’s making leather shoes, which many people dislike."

  The stall owner sighed helplessly, but he always felt that something was wrong.

"Fifth brother, I think something is wrong. The purchase price of my leather jacket is only 70 yuan. If this is imported materials, how can it be sold so cheaply? I have been to the capital. The imported goods in the friendship store are so expensive. To die!" The stall owner Zhang continued.

"Hehe, I have said everything, you can think of things, others can also think of. Did I know that the purchase price of this leather jacket is only seventy yuan? This material looks like imported goods, but we must have a domestic manufacturer It is already possible to produce this material, so the price of leather jackets will be so cheap."

The fifth brother said, showing a proud expression: "As for which manufacturer produces this material, I don't know yet, but I guess this kind of thing must be made in Guangyue, so I have asked someone to go to the special zone. Inquired over there, it is estimated that after the Chinese New Year, there will be news."

   "Really, great, Brother Five, if you really make this kind of leather jacket, don't forget me, brother!" The stall owner Zhang said immediately.

   "Don't worry, we are a family, we are all an ancestor, and no one can forget you if you forget!"

  ……

  Li Weidong knows very well that selling leather jackets can only make a wave of quick money, and it will not take long for a large number of imitators to follow suit on the market.

  China’s manufacturing industry has the strongest copycat ability. One is the garment factory in southern Jiangsu and the other is the shoe factory in eastern Fujian. The copycats from these two places are more real than they really are.

  The motorcycle jacket is nothing more than an appearance design. It has no technical content. As long as the garment factory in southern Jiangsu finds the source of polyurethane synthetic leather, a large number of them can be manufactured in minutes.

Although there are not many manufacturers capable of producing polyurethane synthetic leather, Wenzhou merchants are all over the country. With their ability, they will soon be able to find the source of polyurethane synthetic leather. By that time, Li Weidong's leather jacket business will have done so.

  The state-owned garment factory wants to compete with thousands of garment workshops in southern Jiangsu, which is undoubtedly a dream.

  Li Weidong’s garment factory wants to survive, it must be prepared to make a new product before the large-scale market of replica leather jackets from southern Jiangsu.

  Li Weidong has already planned the next product, but the first thing he has to solve is the problem of product materials.

  ……

  Qinghe No. 2 Cotton Spinning Factory, Li Weidong stared at a knitting machine used in the textile industry and pondered the principle.

  The workshop director handed a rope-like thing to Li Weidong, and asked, "Director Li, look at this, is it the core-filled braid you mentioned."

   "It's this kind of thing." Li Weidong took the core-filled braid and pulled it forcefully, only to hear a "stab", the core-filled braid was torn.

  Li Weidong frowned: "No, it's not strong enough."

  "It is normal for cotton thread to be woven with insufficient strength." The workshop director replied.

   "If flax is used, will the strength be better?" Li Weidong asked.

  The workshop director shook his head: "I don't know about this. After all, our factory mainly does cotton weaving."

  "Then, based on your experience, what materials can be added to make this core-filled braid more resilient?" Li Weidong asked.

   "Director Li, just tell me what you want to do!" the workshop director asked straightforwardly.

   "I want to use flax to make a core-filled braid, and then program a cushion, which will be cooler to sit on." Li Weidong replied.

   "Then just take a few meters of linen and spread it out. It's not enough to be a summer mat!" the workshop director said.

   "I hope the air permeability can be better, so I have to use woven." Li Weidong replied.

The workshop director frowned quite embarrassedly, and said, "Director Li, our factory is mainly engaged in production. I can also help you make ideas for matters within the scope of the production process. I really don’t understand the problem. For example, when it comes to textile materials, you should ask professionals."

   "Can your factory engineers do it?" Li Weidong asked.

  The workshop director shook his head honestly: “Just our engineers, who were all college students from workers, peasants and soldiers, and mastered the craftsmanship more than ten years ago. They can’t even handle the new crafts introduced by our factory!”

   "It seems that we can only think of other ways." Li Weidong sighed helplessly.

"Director Li, I have an idea. You can go to the university and find experts in the textile industry. Maybe they can help you solve the problem. I heard that the big textile factories will go to the big textile factories if they encounter technical problems. Ask a professor for help in the university," the workshop director said.

   "We Qinghe is a normal college or a junior college. There should be no experts in the textile industry." Li Weidong then asked, "Which university should I go to?"

"It’s closer to where to buy. It should be the textile industry major of Tianjin University, and the level of professors is also very high. Maybe they can help you. It’s just that university professors are relatively high-ranking. If most people come to ask for advice, they simply Just ignore it." The workshop director replied.

  "Jinmen University! It seems that I have to go to Jinmen again." Li Weidong said to himself.
