Reborn Industrial Tycoon

There are many leather jackets on the market, and the styles are very novel. Some of them are printed with some English letters, or patterns such as airplanes, eagles, and stars, which look more American.

These leather jackets are made of polyurethane synthetic leather, and the workmanship is not inferior to Li Weidong's products.

Sunan's clothing workshops have finally begun to exert their strength.

Before the Spring Festival, garment workshops in southern Jiangsu had found the source of polyurethane synthetic leather, and the production of leather jackets was no longer a problem. Many garment workshops also found foreign posters and produced different styles according to the styles on the posters.

leather jacket.

After large quantities of leather jackets were launched, the price of leather jackets also plummeted. From the initial retail price of one hundred yuan, it quickly dropped to eighty yuan, then seventy yuan, and then gradually stabilized at sixty yuan.

After all, clothing workshops and vendors selling clothes all have to make money. Taking into account freight and labor costs, sixty yuan is already a relatively reasonable price.

As for Li Weidong's leather jacket, the ex-factory price is 70 yuan, which is higher than the retail price. Li Weidong can only follow the price reduction and adjust the ex-factory price to 50 yuan.

With an ex-factory price of fifty yuan, the clothing factory can still make a profit, but the speed of selling the goods is greatly reduced. After all, leather jackets are not food. The market demand is only that big. Even if the price is reduced, the customer base will not expand.

, a product that only young people will buy.

…

On the weekend, which happened to be a market day, Wang Haibin pushed his bicycle to a spontaneously formed market in the urban-rural fringe area, preparing to buy some New Year goods.

In this kind of market at the urban-rural fringe, there are all kinds of products, including food, clothing, and useful products. There are also craftsmen pushing carts, repairing shoes, mending pots, sharpening scissors and kitchen knives, etc.

Wang Haibin came to the pork stall and planned to buy twenty kilograms of pork and some casings, and then go home and stuff the sausages himself.

A hawking voice sounded from the side: "Leather jackets are cheap, sixty yuan each! The latest style, only sixty yuan!"

Wang Haibin followed the sound and saw a vendor selling a leather jacket. This leather jacket was almost identical to the leather jacket produced by Li Weidong Garment Factory.

Driven by curiosity, Wang Haibin walked over and asked the stall owner: "This leather jacket really only costs 60 yuan?"

The stall owner looked at Wang Haibin's age and felt that he didn't look like someone who wanted to buy a leather jacket, so he replied nonchalantly: "Yes, sixty yuan. This is the lowest price. It can't get any cheaper."

"I remember a few days ago, this leather jacket sold for 100 yuan!" Wang Haibin continued.

"It was a few days ago, it's now, it's cheaper now!" the stall owner said.

Wang Haibin thought to himself, how could Li Weidong take the initiative to lower the price when he seems to be a man who doesn't take enough advantage? So Wang Haibin then asked: "Did your clothes come from the transportation company's clothing factory?"

"I stopped buying goods from there a long time ago. Clothing factories sell them more expensively. They are all bought from southern Jiangsu." The stall owner didn't hide anything.

"That means Li Weidong's leather jackets can no longer be sold!" Wang Haibin suddenly beamed. This was the best news he had heard recently.

"I knew the leather jacket business wouldn't last long! Now all the vendors are going to southern Jiangsu to buy goods. Without the leather jackets, I guess Li Weidong's clothing factory won't be able to survive for a few days!"

Thinking of this, Wang Haibin was in a good mood and thought he could buy five more pounds of pork.

However, the next second, Wang Haibin thought again that his son Wang Lei had spent a full 100 yuan to buy a leather jacket.

But now, leather jackets only cost sixty yuan.

After spending forty yuan more and rounding off to the nearest ten million, Wang Haibin was in a bad mood again.

"This prodigal!" Wang Haibin cursed secretly.

At this time, a voice came from the side: "Comrade, do you want to buy a feather duster? The quality of my feather dusters is very good!"

Wang Haibin looked at the stall. The feather duster looked indeed very solid. It should be very good for spanking the buttocks.

You can take your time with the pork, but you must buy the feather duster!

…

Li Weidong knew that state-owned garment factories were not competitive at all in front of the garment workshops in southern Jiangsu.

The clothing workshops in southern Jiangsu are like a pack of wolves. They adopt wolf tactics from the very beginning and have no regard for martial ethics at all. When faced with a pack of wolves attacking, even lions and tigers have to avoid their sharp edges, not to mention that Li Weidong only has less than four hundred

A human garment factory is not even a tiger.

We can no longer continue to produce leather jackets, it’s time to switch production.

In the conference room, Li Weidong was convening a meeting with the deputy factory director, workshop director and logistics administrators.

These few people were the kind of people who didn't have any opinions, and Li Weidong didn't expect them to make up their minds, so he just talked about it on his own.

"Since our factory started to produce leather jackets, we have produced more than 53,000 leather jackets so far, 51,000 of which have been sold, and 2,000 of which have not been sold.

Recently, many leather jackets from other manufacturers have appeared on the market, which has seriously affected our sales. Our ex-factory price of jackets has also been reduced from 70 yuan to 50 yuan. I predict that this price will continue in the future.

drop.

Moreover, our sales have also stagnated. Many vendors have gone to southern Jiangsu to purchase goods, and there are many fewer vendors coming to our factory to purchase goods.

In view of the sharp decline in the profits of leather jackets and the increasingly sluggish sales, I decided that after this batch of raw materials is used up, our factory will no longer produce leather jackets. As for the existing inventory, all the existing inventory will be sold at reduced prices.

If you don’t go out, we’ll treat it as scrap!”

As soon as the production of leather jackets was discontinued, everyone immediately reacted. Deputy factory director Wang Jing was the first to ask: "Director, if we don't produce leather jackets, what will we do?"

"Yes, factory director, in the past few months, employees have been able to get paid by the company and receive bonuses all because of manufacturing leather jackets. Now that we are no longer in the business, do we still have the bonuses?" the director of the first workshop asked.

What employees are most concerned about is wages and bonuses.

Li Weidong waved his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "Don't worry, everyone, the salary will be paid as usual. As for the bonus, it's almost the Chinese New Year, so I have to give everyone a big red envelope so that everyone can have a good time when they go back."

Year!"

Everyone suddenly beamed with joy when they heard that there were bonuses for the Chinese New Year.

Li Weidong continued: "Deputy Factory Director Wang asked just now, what will we do if we don't produce leather jackets? Of course we have to find other businesses. As for what business to do, I already have a plan. I went to a store a few days ago.

We went to Shanghai and purchased a batch of imported equipment. It is estimated that the goods will arrive after the Spring Festival. By then, everyone will know what products we are going to produce.

However, our new products require certain hand-knitting skills to produce, so I decided to take advantage of the time when the equipment has not yet arrived to train employees and hold a knitting training class so that everyone can master some knitting skills.

After the equipment arrives, we can smoothly put it into production."

"Learn to knit?" Everyone was stunned, and the four workshop directors even showed reluctant expressions.

Learning a new technology is very troublesome, especially for employees of these state-owned enterprises. They are used to eating from a big pot on weekdays, and no one is willing to improve their business skills.

Sure enough, the director of the second workshop was the first to speak: "Director, there are many lesbians over forty years old in our workshop. These lesbians are relatively older. If we ask them to learn knitting technology, I'm afraid they won't be able to learn it!"

"Yes, there are several female comrades in our workshop. They will be almost 50 years old in a few years and will retire soon. They have been working as tailors all their lives and they can only do this. They will definitely not be able to learn new techniques.

"The owner of the third workshop helped.

Li Weidong nodded: "What you said makes sense. I have also considered the actual situation. It is true that many comrades are older and have difficulty mastering new things, so I decided that this weaving technology training will be voluntary for employees to sign up.

If you want to learn knitting techniques, just register yourself. If you don’t want to learn, you don’t need to register.”

"If I don't sign up, will there be any punishment from the factory?" the director of the fourth workshop asked cautiously.

"Don't worry, everyone. I told you that you signed up voluntarily and will not force it. If you don't participate in the training, the factory will not impose any penalties." Li Weidong replied with a smile.

"Huh..." The four workshop directors breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Since registration is voluntary, and there is no penalty for not training, only the devil would be willing to go! It would be a waste of energy and time to learn some programming technology when you have nothing to do.

Li Weidong continued: "After the training is over, the factory will also conduct a test on the effectiveness of the training to see whether the employees who participated in the training have mastered the weaving technology."

"It's another troublesome thing to take an exam, and no one will sign up!" the four workshop directors thought at the same time.

However, the next second, Li Weidong suddenly threw a heavyweight bomb:

"For employees who pass the exam, the factory will give 100 yuan as a bonus!"

"What? There's also a 100-yuan bonus?" The four workshop directors raised their heads at the same time.

"Director, didn't you say there would be no punishment for not participating in the training?" the director of the first workshop asked.

"There is no punishment." Li Weidong replied with a smile.

"This is 100 yuan..."

"This 100 yuan is a reward, and rewards are different from punishments. For example, if my brother fails the exam and I don't beat him, it is considered as no punishment. If my brother gets 60 points, I will give him 50 cents.

Pocket money, this is a reward. There is a saying that rewards and punishments are clear, and rewards and punishments should be viewed separately without interfering with each other."

Li Weidong still had a smile on his face and continued: "Finally, I would like to emphasize again that this weaving technology training is completely voluntary and the factory will never force it!"

The 100 yuan bonus has already been taken out, so what’s the point of talking about “voluntary registration” and “not being forced to do so”!

The four workshop directors looked at me and I looked at you, and they all saw each other's thoughts:

This young factory director is very clever!
