Gao Sheng changed his sitting position and then continued: "She said that we must have our own style and cannot blindly pursue the market environment... I think it is right, although pursuing the market environment can give us some relief, but
In that case, the brand reputation will decline."
"Well, that's what happened." I nodded.
Gao Sheng added: "But if we don't do that, our own style will be too single. What Xiao Siya wants is diversified development."
"for example?"
"For example, we may not only be in the field of clothing, we can also develop bags, shoes, socks and so on."
I was silent for a while and asked him: "Is Xiao Siya in the company? Ask her to come up."
"She is not here today. She went to Shanghai to attend a design industry exchange meeting. It will probably take two days before she comes back."
"Then let me talk to her when she comes back. Tell her about the backlog of products in the warehouse. How many are there?"
"There are almost more than 30,000 items of different types. I have a list here."
Gao Sheng said, got up and walked to the desk, found a piece of information and handed it to me.
I took it and looked at it briefly, and my brows immediately wrinkled.
I didn't expect there to be such a serious inventory problem, and some of the goods on this list were backlogged this spring.
After taking a general look, I asked Gao Sheng: "Have these goods never been processed?"
"It can't be processed! There are even return orders, all of the same type."
"What's going on? Isn't this type difficult to sell?"
"The channel said it's not that it's hard to sell, but the price is too high and the sales volume is not good."
I put down the list, sighed heavily, and said, "I know, it's not that our prices are too high, it's just that the design is simple. The main reason is that our brand is not that loud."
Gao Sheng nodded and agreed as if he suddenly understood: "You are on to the point. Our brand still doesn't have a great reputation."
"Yes, this is the most important reason."
"Then boss, shouldn't we vigorously promote it now?"
I pondered for a moment and said: "We should do some advertising, but let's not rush it. The most important thing now is to sort out some of our current problems. Let's solve the problem of employee dormitories first."
"This can't be solved! The dormitory building is still under construction. I have urged it many times, and the person in charge there said that it will be completed at least after the beginning of next year."
I thought about it and said, "Did you not issue a notice telling employees when the dormitory building will be built?"
"This does not."
"If you do this, make an announcement as soon as possible to inform all employees when the dormitory building will be built. They are making trouble because they don't know the specific situation. Once they know the situation, they can understand it."
"What about the formaldehyde problem?"
"Let experts measure it to see if the formaldehyde exceeds the standard. If it does exceed the standard, rectifications should be made, and the furniture that should be removed should be removed... If it doesn't work, just take a holiday and wait until the formaldehyde recovers. This problem cannot be ignored.
"
Gao Sheng nodded, then sighed and said, "Actually, I wanted to do this before, but I was afraid of affecting the production tasks."
I know Gao Sheng, he can definitely think of these things. It is what Chen Dajiang said, Gao Sheng is capable, but he is afraid of taking responsibility.
I reached out and patted his shoulder, and said earnestly: "Gao Sheng, how many years have you been following me?"
"It has been more than five years since I started in Chengdu."
"Well, I have been very optimistic about you from the beginning. I know you are capable. Otherwise, why would you be the general manager instead of someone else? Have you thought about this problem?"
Gao Sheng lowered his head again and murmured: "Boss, I have failed to live up to your expectations."
"Don't say that. You have to cheer up. You have to be dignified. Don't be afraid. If you have any ideas, just do it...As for the issue of formaldehyde, it is a problem in itself. If there is a problem, take a holiday when it's time. Don't worry about it.
For any production task, the body is most important."
"Yeah, I got it."
"Also, I heard some not-so-good sounds," I paused and then said, "What's the situation between you and Chen Dajiang?"
Gao Sheng looked at me blankly and said, "It's nothing! What's wrong?"
"I heard that you two were at war? They also said that you had serious conflicts."
Gao Sheng smiled bitterly and said: "This is completely untrue. I had a fight with him, but it was not because of conflicts... Chen Dajiang had just fallen out of love a few days ago, so I went to enlighten him and fight with him for a while.
Fist, this kid was so cruel that it caused my nose to bleed."
I immediately laughed and said, "As long as there is no conflict, you are the backbone of the company and must not fail!"
Gao Sheng nodded, but said with a hint of helplessness: "However, some of Chen Dajiang's ideas are a bit different from mine. Let him dilute the market share of those small clothing companies. I didn't agree with this before, but he still did it.
Already."
"I know about this, and I have asked him to stop. This approach is unethical, and now the big fish eating the small fish method will not work for us."
"I know that he also wants to get rid of the batch of products in the warehouse. He has traveled a lot these days."
"There's no rush for this batch of products. I'll figure it out. But Dajiang has gone to Europe now. Do you know what he's going to do?"
"I'm not sure. He went to Europe?" Gao Sheng asked in surprise.
It seems that Chen Dajiang only told me about this matter. It is not a secret. The reason why Chen Dajiang only told me was because he knew that it would be useless to tell others.
After I took out the cigarette again and lit it, I said to Gao Sheng: "He heard through a channel that a clothing company in Europe was about to change hands. He went over to take a look at the equipment, mainly their technical information and copyright information.
Can you take it down?"
"Hey! Then if we can win this, it will cost a lot of money, right?"
"Well, it's estimated to be about 300 million."
Gao Sheng frowned: "Does our company still have so much money in its account now?"
"No, think of a way. I'll think of a way. If we can win these things, it will be a qualitative improvement for our company."
Gao Sheng shook his head and sighed: "Chen Dajiang is so brave. Why didn't he tell me about this?"
"Don't blame him. He was also afraid of problems, so he came to me directly."
Gao Sheng nodded, then turned to me and asked: "Boss, what have you been doing during this time? I asked my sister-in-law, but she didn't say anything. I thought you two had a quarrel at first."
"No, I'm going to get treatment."
"Treatment? Boss, what's wrong with you?" Gao Sheng looked at me in surprise.
"It's nothing serious now, it doesn't matter."
"Why did it take so long? Is it because you had stomach cancer in the past?"
"Well, it hasn't gotten better, and I haven't dared to tell you. If I hadn't gone to treatment this time, I guess by now..."
"I mean, why were you in such poor health before? And your complexion was not good. Why didn't you tell me? You didn't treat me as your brother?"
I smiled coquettishly and said, "I treat you as a brother, so I don't know how to tell you."
"Are you okay now?" Gao Sheng asked quickly.
"I'm basically healed, but I still have to insist on taking traditional Chinese medicine."
"That's good, don't scare me!"
When I was about to speak, Gao Sheng's cell phone suddenly rang, and I motioned for him to answer the phone first.
Gao Sheng picked up the phone and answered the call, but saw his expression changed and he suddenly stood up.
"What? Okay, I understand."
I feel like it's not a good thing, otherwise he wouldn't have such a sudden reaction.
