Section 62 Rejected Cooperation
Ai Fei picked up the coffee and took a sip: "Miss Stewart?"
"Ah!" Rowling reluctantly cheered up: "Mr. Ike?"
"I think you came to my house this time, probably not just to accompany your department manager to visit me here, right? Is there anything I can help you?"
Rowling rolled her eyes at Aksu, as if she was blaming her for putting herself in such an awkward situation: "Mr. Ike, I know you... I said at the beginning that if I have anything to help, you are willing to help me with all your strength. Is that true?"
"Yes. I said this." Ai Fei smiled: "It's not that Miss Stewart has encountered any difficulties, right?"
"Yes!" Rowling mustered up the courage and spoke like a cannon. He seemed to be afraid that a pause would not have the courage to continue: "I hope you can promise us that the right to make the clothing you designed to Windsors Department Store for production. Of course, in the benefits you deserve, Windsors Department Store will meet all your conditions."
When Ai Fei finished speaking in one breath, he was also amused in his heart: "Miss Stewart, I did say what I just said, but the people I want to help are limited to your personal problems. But now, the question you asked me seems to be in business negotiations for Windsors and me? Is this also your difficulty?"
"..." Rowling was speechless immediately. Fortunately, she was not a fool either. She hesitated for a moment and came up with an idea for her: "But if you don't want to agree this time, I might even lose my current job! Do you think this is not considered my difficulty?"
With a word, several people smiled: "Wow. Oh! If that's the case, I think you can work in my company? Believe me, I can give you a higher salary and position than Windsors Department Store. And if that's the case, this matter has indeed become your problem, and I am willing to solve it for you."
Rowling was stunned: This seems different from what Aksu said to him when he came... What's going on?
Aksu watched coldly, and probably saw that Ai Fei was joking with Luo Lin: "Mr. Ike..."
Ai Fei restrained his hippie smile: "Uh, yes. Miss Patrika?"
Aksu didn't have time to joke with him, so he got to the right point as soon as he came up. The title: "Windsors is very sincere in cooperating with you on the right to make and patent rights of clothing. If you have some special conditions, we can negotiate."
Ai Fei pondered for a moment: his mood was a bit complicated. The first batch of clothes produced were more than 970 pieces (sets). Except for some of them that were customized clothes that were sold at brand houses for sale, all the other approximately (sets) of clothes were given to two stores that had cooperative relationships with him. Although he already thought that it was fair, these two stores were still very dissatisfied with his production: each company can only get 300 pieces (sets)? How can this be enough to sell?
Facing the hope of gaining more market share by the other party's repeated mentions, Ai Fei was both funny and helpless. Did he deliberately produce clothes and not give them? It was just that his production capacity was low! He didn't understand himself in this way? But he soon reacted: After talking for a long time, things went back to the original path. Both stores hoped that they would release the patent rights of clothing products and then hand them over to produce them!
He also considered relaxing the production and patent rights of clothing, and handing it over to the store to independently produce it, and just sitting there to get the money. But the most critical problem here is: as long as you open up such a market, the clothing you designed will become all over the city in less than a few days, and the result will definitely squeeze the originally not-so-large market space. At that time, you are afraid that the brand house and his own production factory will go bankrupt in the shortest time! What should these girls who make a living with you now do?
"Mr. Ike? Are there any difficulties?"
"Yes." Ai Fei nodded openly: "I'm considering that if a large company like Windsors participates in the production of my products, it will inevitably cause a squeeze in the market, and the interests of my factory and my employees will inevitably be affected. You know, this is something I don't want to see."
"I understand." The expression in Aksu's sharp eyes gradually calmed down a little: "I never knew... Well, sorry, I had no intention of offending, the Japanese would treat Americans with a caring and concern attitude! Sorry, I have no other intention."
"……………” He did not speak, but reached out and picked up the cigarette on the coffee table and lit it on his own. This time, he did not ask the lady present for advice.
Aksu also knew that he had said the wrong thing, but he couldn't take it back, so he had to sit awkwardly, and the scene was cold.
"Then..." Aksu stood up embarrassedly: "Please allow me to say goodbye."
Ai Fei finally lifted his eyelids and glanced at the people: "Please walk slowly. Goodbye."
"goodbye."
Several people came with enthusiasm, but they didn't want to be like this just because of a few words from a person. As the person involved, Aksu felt so uncomfortable: "Don't talk about this to anyone! Did you hear it?"
Rowling and Daur smiled at each other: "Yes, ma'am."
Until the guest left for a long time, he was still smoking. In a short while, the ashtray was filled with cigarette butts. Yumiya knew that he was in a bad mood and did not dare to persuade him, but just sat with him.
Finally, when he picked up the cigarette box again, it was already empty. He then put down the cigarette box and breathed a long sigh: "Idiot!"
“Eh?”
Ai Fei then looked back at Yugong: "I'm sorry, because... you're troubled, right?"
"No, no." Yugong smiled gently: "I think Xiao Aijun must be very upset, right? After all, only those who have experienced it personally can understand it!"
"Yes, only those who have experienced it personally can understand it!" Ai Fei stood up, picked up the ashtray and walked to the kitchen to pour it out: "Yugong, clean up, let's go!"
"Eh?" Yugong quickly cleaned up: "Where to go?"
"Factory!" Ai Fei glanced at her strangely: "What's wrong? Have you forgotten?"
"Ah, yes!" Yugong then remembered that he had made it yesterday. He would go to the factory once today to listen to the opinions and reports from Mrs. Hit, the head of the factory, for next month's production.
Mrs. Hit is always a stern face, which is daunting. Even when facing Mr. Ike, her boss, she just nodded, even if she said hello. Ai Fei knew her for a long time and knew that she was such a person, she would not disobey her. However, Yugong believed that employees should maintain the minimum politeness when facing her boss. She wanted to complain to Ai Fei several times about Mrs. Hit's problem, but he always shook his head and smiled, but refused to accept her words. She had to give up after a few times.
In the factory manager's office, Mrs. Hitt's fat face was tight and her small brown eyes were bright: "Mr. Ike, I think it is very necessary to discuss your arrangements! Don't you know that the arrangement of production in the factory requires the reality of the situation? We have a working group of less than 40 people in rotation. Now you have to propose to transfer some to the brand house? Don't you know? The brand house is just doing some recording and sorting work, and formal production and production must be based on..."
"Madam Hit, I know your problem very clearly and understand your point of view very well. However, you may have misunderstood. I definitely don't mean to draw some of the employees from the factory itself to supplement the brand house, but implement a rotation system. Well, I initially think it's a rotation once a week. Moreover, the biggest feature of the rotation system is that you don't have to consider the economic losses caused by leaving your current position! In other words, the money you get in this position is still the same money!"
"You mean, even from the factory to the brand house, will it be done in this way?"
"It's almost the same!" Ai Fei smiled: "But there is a little flexibility, that is, some rewards you can get when making clothing in the factory can no longer have."
"Yes, I understand what you mean." Mrs. Hit nodded: "If that's the case, I want to post this ordinance from next month? Then, can I get rotational staff? In the order of names?"
"No, random. However, those who have been rotated will take their names out and cannot participate in the second selection. After all of them have done it once, we will start over."
"Yes, sir, what else do you have?"
"I received guests from Windsor at home this morning, and they still hoped that they could make and sell their own products by purchasing a clothing patent. Well, I rejected them. But Mrs. Hitt, do you think it's OK? I mean, can I complete the required orders on schedule?"
"As long as you are not drawing people from the factory."
"Don't worry, I won't be able to draw it from it. Not only will I not, I am also trying to solve the problem of insufficient staff now. There will be news in a few days." As he said that, he smiled: "By the way, whose birthday is today?"
