Chapter 109 Report
During the time when Jiang Weimin was communicating with Director Liu, the two foreign ladies who had just served as models slowly walked over.
The two foreign ladies looked at Jiang Weimin with hope, "Mr. Jiang, we really like the clothes you designed and hope to buy them."
Jiang Weimin replied apologetically: “I’m very sorry, ladies, as these clothes have not yet been officially released, we have to take them back.”
Another lady hurriedly explained, "Mr. Jiang, we really like this dress, please sell it to us."
Jiang Weimin shook his head firmly and refused: "I'm sorry, we need to be responsible to all our customers.
If the clothing is allowed to enter the market before it is officially released, it may have a negative impact on our subsequent cooperation.
Seeing the disappointed expressions of the two foreign ladies, Jiang Weimin felt a little guilty, but he still stuck to his principles.
Jiang Weimin changed his mind and suggested: "However, as compensation, I can draw a portrait for each of you, just like the one in the poster."
When the two foreign ladies heard the proposal, looks of joy immediately appeared on their faces and they expressed their agreement.
Jiang Weimin smiled and said, "Ladies, please change your clothes first, and then I will help you draw."
The two foreign ladies nodded contentedly, turned around and followed Xiao Li and Xiao Song back to the fitting room to change their clothes.
Jiang Weimin breathed a sigh of relief after the two foreign ladies left.
After all, it was these two foreign ladies who indirectly facilitated the order.
Jiang Weimin would feel guilty if he sent them away directly.
Jiang Weimin quickly told Director Liu: "Director Liu, please put away the clothes and posters.
The posters can be given to the two foreign merchants with the most orders, but the clothes must be kept safe!"
Director Liu was a little puzzled. "Xiao Jiang, can't we give the clothes to foreign merchants together? Aren't we supposed to sell our clothes to them?"
Jiang Weimin explained to Director Liu in a low voice, "I'm afraid that heroes will be tempted by beautiful women, so please don't cause us unnecessary trouble."
Unexpectedly, Jiang Weimin's words were heard by two foreign translators who immediately translated them to their boss.
One of the two foreigners looked a little surprised after hearing this, as if he had already had such an idea in his mind, but didn't know what to say.
Another person nodded secretly, obviously admiring the professional ethics and business sensitivity of the Third Printing and Dyeing Factory.
Immediately afterwards, Director Liu began to direct the factory staff to clean up the exhibition hall.
"You guys clean up our exhibition hall, put all the fabrics back into the warehouse, and arrange all the comics from Qingdao Publishing House in our exhibition hall. Arrange them carefully."
Then the employees took action and quickly cleaned up the items in the exhibition hall.
People in the exhibition hall next door saw this and gathered around.
"Old Liu, what happened to you?"
Director Liu looked over cheerfully and said, "Nothing serious. We just received too many orders and our factory couldn't produce enough. So we gave the showroom to our sister company."
Someone in the crowd shouted, "Lao Liu, you are just bragging!"
"Bullshit, look what this is!" Director Liu raised the contract in his hand.
There was an immediate cry of surprise from the crowd.
"Lao Liu, how did you do it? Please share your experience with us!"
"I'll come back and tell you guys later. I'll go report to my boss first and register the contract right away."
After that, Director Liu turned to look at Jiang Weimin and said, "Xiao Jiang, come with me to find President Feng. Let's go together to report to the leader."
Jiang Weimin soon arrived at the booth of Qingdao Publishing House and saw Feng Nan busy explaining comic strips to Hong Kong businessmen.
At this time, the booth of Qingdao Publishing House was bustling with people coming and going.
Many people were attracted by the posters carefully drawn by Jiang Weimin.
Everyone was holding a comic book in their hands and flipping through it carefully.
Due to limited space in the booth, Jiang Weimin had a hard time squeezing into the crowd and quickly found Feng Nan.
Jiang Weimin said to Feng Nan excitedly: "President, I have good news for you.
Director Liu and his team have successfully sold all the clothes I designed and the fabrics involved, with a total order of 270 million US dollars! "
Hearing this news, Feng Nan was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. He couldn't help asking: "With such a high price, how come all of them were sold out right after the launch? The speed is too fast!"
Jiang Weimin smiled and said, "Maybe it's because these foreign businessmen are more receptive to art."
"Why do I feel that the printing and dyeing factory needs painters more than our publishing house?"
"Then President, I'm going to work in the printing and dyeing factory."
Feng Nan hurriedly explained, "Xiao Jiang, let me tell you, Qingdao Publishing House is your home. If you want to promote your comic strips, you have to rely on our Qingdao Publishing House."
"Boss, I'm kidding. The 270 million yuan order from Qingdao No. 5 Printing and Dyeing Factory also includes a 13.5% design fee for Qingdao Publishing House, a total of yuan in foreign exchange.
Director Liu is waiting for you outside the crowd. You should go and report to the leader with Director Liu!"
Feng Nan got excited when he heard this: "Yes, yes, yes, there's 13 yuan of design fees in it, I'll go right away. This is a big deal."
"President, please go quickly! Brother Yun and I can watch over here, and I also promised to draw portraits of the two models who just helped to secure the orders."
Director Liu then brought Feng Nan to the leader of the Qingdao trading delegation.
Director Liu looked excited. "Leader, I have good news to tell you. Our third printing and dyeing factory has successfully won an order of 270 million US dollars!" Director Liu said excitedly.
"How much?" The leader's eyes widened.
"270 million!" Director Liu repeated.
“It’s only the first day of the exhibition, how did you get such a large order?”
"Leader, we have to thank the comrades from Qingdao Publishing House. They helped us design two sets of clothes, which enabled us to get such a large order."
The leader of the trade delegation turned to look at Feng Nan and said, "President Feng, your publishing house has so many ways to do things. Not only is it the first to get an order at this trade fair, but it can also help other companies get such a large order."
Feng Nan smiled and explained, "Boss, this is all Xiao Jiang's work. He designed the clothes and he came up with the idea."
The leader looked puzzled and asked, "Who is Xiao Jiang?"
"Leader, Xiao Jiang's name is Jiang Weimin, and he is the editor of our publishing house."
"Xiao Jiang, what kind of clothes did you design to make a foreign businessman place such a large order?"
"Boss, the posters have been sent to foreign businessmen, but I brought a piece of clothing with me, but it's definitely not as intuitive as the posters."
After saying that, Director Liu spread out the clothes for the leaders of the Qingdao trading delegation to see.
Although the leader saw that the clothes in front of him were very beautiful, he was more puzzled.
In this era when foreign exchange is still exchanged for primary processed products, the thinking of the leaders of the Qingdao trading group has long been restricted.
"Although this dress looks good, can it win an order worth 270 million just because it looks good?"
Director Liu smiled and said, "Leader, this is not just about looking good, it's a kind of art.
Developed countries have a strong pursuit and appreciation for art, and they are willing to pay for such unique works of art.
This dress is not just an ordinary garment, it contains our country's profound cultural heritage and exquisite craftsmanship, and is a work of art.
Therefore, we can attract the attention of these foreign businessmen and facilitate such a huge order. "
The leader was a little confused. "Let's go! I'll go register the contract with you first, and then take me to see Comrade Xiao Jiang."
