Chapter 108 Large Orders
After Director Liu announced the price of US$50 per set, there was some commotion among the crowd, but no one objected to the price.
Director Liu looked at the reactions of the crowd and knew that Jiang Weimin’s price was correct.
At this time, Director Liu seemed to understand the meaning of priceless art.
At this moment, the foreign businessman said a few words to the translator beside him, and the translator immediately shouted to Director Liu: "Can these two sets of clothes be tried on?"
Director Liu didn't expect that someone would want to try it on, and he couldn't help feeling a little worried.
He was worried that when the clothes were worn by someone else, they might lose the stunning beauty in the painting.
So he quickly whispered to Xiao Li, "Go and call Xiao Jiang over."
Then, he smiled and explained to everyone: "Please wait a moment, our designer will be here soon."
At this time, quite a few people had gathered in the exhibition area where Jiang Weimin was.
Jiang Weimin was introducing the comic book in detail to foreign businessmen, while Yun Zhou and Feng Nan were busy communicating with Hong Kong businessmen.
Xiao Li quickly found Jiang Weimin and told him the situation. Jiang Weimin nodded slightly to show his understanding.
After talking to Feng Nan for a few words, he followed Xiao Li to the exhibition area next door.
Seeing Jiang Weimin coming, Director Liu hurried forward to greet him.
"Xiao Jiang, a foreign businessman wants to try on this outfit. But since these clothes are made according to standard sizes, I'm worried that I won't be able to achieve the effect in the painting."
After Jiang Weimin carefully checked the size of the clothes, he quickly scanned the crowd and immediately locked onto two targets.
He turned to Director Liu confidently and said, "No problem. We can arrange a fitting."
Hearing Jiang Weimin's words, Director Liu smiled with satisfaction and pointed at Jiang Weimin to introduce him to everyone.
"This is our fashion designer Jiang Weimin, who not only has outstanding talent in fashion design, but is also an excellent painter.
Let our designer arrange a fitting now!"
Jiang Weimin did not expect that Director Liu would suddenly push him onto the stage.
But thanks to the past two days of experience, Jiang Weimin is now not afraid of the stage at all, and he confidently introduces himself in fluent English.
“Hello everyone, my name is Jiang Weimin, I am a would-be painter and also a cartoonist.
Since I am very sensitive to colors, I have some unique insights and research on the color matching of clothes. ”
Jiang Weimin then skillfully weaves a fascinating story for the clothes he designed, a story full of creativity and emotion.
Both foreigners and Chinese living in the 21st century are interested in the stories behind the products.
When Jiang Weimin finished his wonderful introduction, thunderous applause broke out at the scene, and people cast admiring glances at Jiang Weimin.
Director Liu looked at Jiang Weimin in surprise as he spoke fluently in English. He knew that Jiang Weimin could speak English, but he didn't expect that he could even give public speeches.
Director Liu didn't know that these were all sentences that Jiang Weimin had prepared in advance in his notebook and had memorized them skillfully.
At this time, Xiao Li and Xiao Song's eyes were shining and they looked full of admiration.
Jiang Weimin then invited two foreign ladies selected from the crowd.
"Hello, ladies, can you be my models for a while and try on the clothes I designed?"
The two foreign ladies were very surprised. Designers are highly respected no matter where they are.
Jiang Weimin is also a painter, and they feel very lucky to be able to wear clothes designed by Jiang Weimin.
So I agreed without hesitation: "Jiang, it's my honor to be your model!"
The height and temperament of these two ladies were specially selected by Jiang Weimin, and they basically match the temperament of the clothes.
Jiang Weimin waved to Xiao Li and Xiao Song and said, "Sister Li, Sister Song, please find a place for these two ladies to change their clothes."
"Yes, Xiao Li, Xiao Song, please take the two foreign friends to change clothes."
Jiang Weimin communicated with the two foreign ladies in English and asked them to follow Xiao Li and Xiao Song to change clothes.
At the same time, he reminded Director Liu to be careful not to let anyone take pictures.
After the two foreign ladies changed their clothes and came out, they instantly attracted everyone's attention.
The clothes they wear seem to have walked out of a painting, and the effect is exactly the same as in the painting.
One of them displays an elegant intellectual beauty, while the other exudes a confident and calm charm.
Xiao Li and Xiao Song immediately stood in front of the two foreign ladies and stopped others from taking pictures.
Seeing everyone in the crowd looking amazed, Jiang Weimin nodded to Director Liu.
Director Liu then said loudly: "Everyone has seen the actual effect of the clothes, right? This is art, and the price of $50 per set is really not expensive."
“I want to order 1000 sets!”
"Order me 2000 sets!"
Some people in the crowd couldn't wait to start placing orders.
At this time, Director Liu added: "Don't worry, I have another important news to announce.
We will give away free clothing designs for any order over $50 in our showroom, whether it is ready-made garments or fabric.
And we will give priority to fabric orders.”
Everyone understands that China's production capacity for this type of clothing is definitely limited. Whoever gets the design drawings first and makes it themselves will have the opportunity to occupy the market first.
"I'll pay 100 million for the fabric related to the clothes this lady is wearing," the Italian man shouted decisively.
"I will also offer 100 million to buy the relevant fabric for the other lady's dress," a French businessman shouted.
Jiang Weimin saw that these two foreign businessmen were planning to have the whole business alone!
The production capacity of the current printing and dyeing factories is limited, and a foreign exchange order of 200 million US dollars can keep the third printing and dyeing factory working for half a year.
When it was only focusing on foreign exchange orders, this immediately drove the Third Printing and Dyeing Company back to its hometown in Qingdao from the Canton Fair factory.
Director Liu was so excited that he almost fainted. A foreign exchange order of 200 million US dollars.
In the past, we would be lucky if we could get $50 worth of foreign exchange orders from the Canton Fair in spring and autumn each year.
These two orders are equivalent to half of the foreign exchange orders of all printing and dyeing factories in Qingdao in one year.
"Wait, I'll place another order for 20 ready-made clothes." The Italian businessman continued.
"Yes, give me another 20 garment order." The French businessman followed closely.
Jiang Weimin knew at a glance that the two foreign businessmen were planning to block the purchasing channels for the two sets of clothes.
There was a commotion among the crowd. “We were the first to place the order for ready-made clothes. Give us the order first.”
"Yes, give us the order first."
Director Liu quickly stepped forward and said, "Don't get excited, we will definitely follow the principle of first come, first served."
However, there were only a few people who requested to place orders at that time, and Director Liu had already noted it down.
As Director Liu wrote down everyone's orders, after calculation, the total clothing orders amounted to $70.
The number of people who just called for advance orders only adds up to 6000 sets, 3000 sets of each of the two styles of clothing, for a total of 30 orders.
Director Liu then placed orders for everyone in order and signed the contracts.
Director Liu felt a little dizzy when holding the 270 million order contract.
"Xiao Jiang! You should stop being a painter and become a fashion designer instead!
I think it would be great if you could get an order of $10 for your comic strip."
"Director Liu, please stop talking. Drawing comic strips is my hobby."
"Okay, as long as you know what you want. We will no longer accept foreign exchange orders due to our limited production capacity.
I will arrange for someone to remove our booth and use the vacant booths to display your comic strips."
Jiang Weimin was also delighted when he heard this. "Thank you, Director Liu."
