"Why are you giving me money? There isn't much money in the company now, but you just asked for hundreds of thousands. Aren't you afraid that Wanqi will come back and tear you apart?"
"Sometimes, people's hearts are much more important than money. Buying people's hearts for hundreds of thousands is too cheap." Wang Xudong said with a smile, "Kexin, come to my office. I have something to ask you." After that, he took Qin Kexin there.
to his office.
"What's the matter?" Qin Kexin asked.
"Factory No. 1 has completely lost its production capacity. Even if we spend money to renovate the factory and install machinery and equipment, we don't know when we will regain productivity. Our only production workshop now is Linzhou Factory No. 2.
, I asked the people in the production department of Factory No. 2 before, and they said that the production capacity of Factory No. 2 is less than 30% of that of Factory No. 1. In addition, according to the plan, for this spring clothing market, our first phase
A total of 100,000 sets of clothing are being prepared to be produced. So far, that is to say, before the fire, Factory No. 1 has produced more than 50,000 sets, and Factory No. 2 has produced more than 13,000 sets. According to the original plan, it was to
Before the Spring Festival, all 100,000 sets of clothing were completed, but the current situation is that the more than 50,000 sets produced by Factory No. 1 have been completely burned, along with all the purchased raw materials, resulting in heavy losses."
"Furthermore, the only thing we have now is the more than 13,000 sets of clothing produced by Factory No. 2. Of course, Project No. 2 was to produce a total of more than 25,000 sets of clothing according to the original plan.
The preliminary raw materials have also been purchased, and the production of Factory No. 2 will basically not be affected. Therefore, the more than 25,000 sets of clothing in Factory No. 2 will not be affected. I asked people from the production department to go to Factory No. 2 in person.
Supervise, and plan to find a way to get another sum of money to Factory No. 2, so that they must produce 30,000 sets of clothing before the Spring Festival no matter what. The production department has also investigated and studied, and 30,000 sets is already the number of Factory No. 2.
The ultimate of extremes."
"So, up to now, if we want to complete production before the Spring Festival as planned and then go on the market smoothly, then we still have a production gap of 70,000 sets of clothing and a funding gap of 70,000 sets of clothing production." Wang Xudong slowly said
Introducing the situation to Qin Kexin.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to re-produce all the products and launch them after the Spring Festival?" Qin Kexin asked in surprise.
"Yes, I have thought carefully about it today. This is the only way to save this company. There is no need to make other assumptions. If we can catch up with the spring clothing market, then our company will not only be able to save this fire.
Despite the loss, we can still make a lot of money according to the original plan, and the company can successfully reach a new level. If we can't catch up, don't think about it, the company has only one way out: bankruptcy. Therefore, we have no choice, or do nothing.
Let the company go bankrupt now, or... take a gamble. And I have always been a person who likes gambling." Wang Xudong grinned at Qin Kexin.
"To put it simply, where did you get so much money? Where did you get those 70,000 sets of clothes in such a short time? This matter is not as simple as saying a word. Besides, I can't help you. I
I’m just a designer, I know nothing about this area.”
"Let's talk about production first. When they originally set the standard of 100,000 sets, they also confirmed it after repeated research. 100,000 sets is a conservative but a little bit radical production volume. Let's put it this way. According to this
Judging from the promotion and market response of one set, the spring clothing market they gave us should have a market digestion volume of between 90,000 and 120,000 sets. 90,000 sets is a conservative amount, and Su Wanqi finally chose 100,000 sets.
, she still has confidence in the market. Therefore, our minimum production requirement is 90,000 sets, so if Factory No. 2 produces 30,000 sets, the rest will be 60,000 sets."
"We have no possibility of producing these 60,000 sets. We can only go out and find others to produce them. But I don't know much about this area, so I want to ask you if we can package these 60,000 sets and give them to
Someone else will help with the production?" Wang Xudong asked Qin Kexin.
"Outsourcing?"
"Is it called that? Is it feasible? It is said that there are many such OEM manufacturers. Some clothing manufacturers do not have their own production factories, and they all give orders to some manufacturers that specialize in this kind of production.
Are there any difficulties here?" Wang Xudong asked Qin Kexin.
"There are many difficulties, including cost, quality, time and so on. First of all, cost, needless to say, there is a huge price difference between producing in your own factory and having someone else produce it, and the cost is much higher. Secondly,
It’s quality, the quality of OEM manufacturers. No matter what you do, you can’t match the quality of your own production. This is why big manufacturers have their own factories. OEM manufacturers are more focused on quantity.
Based on production volume, we cannot achieve high standards for quality. Based on this point, I do not agree with hiring someone to do the processing. Lome Clothing has attached great importance to brand building in recent years and has very strict quality requirements. For such an incident
It would be better to give up if I just smash my own brand. Moreover, I will not allow the products I designed to become inferior products in the market. That is unacceptable to me."
"The other thing is time. Even if you want to find an OEM manufacturer to produce, it won't be possible for a while. Let's put it this way, OEM manufacturers generally produce for specific companies, and the order quantity
Most of them have been arranged a year ago or at least half a year ago. If you look for it temporarily, it is impossible for any larger and regular manufacturer to have such a schedule. Moreover, a set of clothing has its own production.
Templates need to be debugged and equipment needs to be debugged, and workers need to become familiar with it again. This also takes time, and now we don’t have much time left. How can it be possible with so much volume? In any case, it is basically impossible to find OEM production.
Yes, I firmly disagree." Qin Kexin's attitude was very firm.
Wang Xudong was sitting at his desk, smoking a cigarette and lost in thought.
"OEM production is not completely impossible. In fact, the main problems are quality, cost and time. In terms of quality, we can arrange more people to supervise the work. We will fully supervise and conduct quality inspections during and after production. Those who fail will not be rejected.
, Of course, in this case we will definitely have to pay a higher price than ordinary products, but there is no way to do this now. Reducing profits can ensure sales and revitalize the company, and get out of this predicament, which is already the most ideal situation.
As for time, as long as we can give a reasonable price, I think they will solve these problems." Wang Xudong said after thinking. (To be continued)
