Chapter 875 Cherishing the Heart
For Ning Weimin, the significance of the "Plaza Accord" and the chain reaction it produced.
It is not just as simple as him being alone in Tokyo, watching his personal net worth skyrocketing step by step.
Because there are many people in the country who participated in the layout with him, and people who have a relationship with him in one way or another, they are also silently paying attention to this matter.
Whether he knows it or not, whether he wants it or not, the fate of these people and the trajectory of many things will be affected by this incident to varying degrees.
September 24, Tuesday, 19:05 pm, lobby on the first floor of Tianqiao Department Store.
Yin Yue, who has been busy for a day, has just arranged tomorrow's work content for three specialty stores and walked out.
With her handbag in hand, she looked at her watch and found that it was less than an hour before the actual shopping mall proofing.
But she was able to get off work, so she didn’t just leave to find her bicycle.
Instead, he concentrated on walking to the corner of the hall and quietly looked at the scene where the lights were still bright, people were crowded, and people were queuing up in an orderly manner.
And when observing this scene, he showed a look of relief and satisfaction.
For no other reason than because she has been managing three specialty stores, "Guofeng", "Playboy" and "Champs Elysées" for Ning Weimin.
I find that when customers choose ready-to-wear clothing, they always worry about the size of the clothing, such as waist and trouser length.
So taking the actual needs of customers into consideration, she contacted Aunt Bian through Su Jin from Meishi Street Clothing Factory a few days ago.
I hope to deploy four more skilled people from the street sewing club to change clothes for customers on-site at Tianqiao Department Store for a long time.
The remuneration of these four people is calculated on a piece-by-piece basis, which is paid out daily by several specialty stores under Yin Yue, but the service is provided free of charge to customers with shopping receipts from the three specialty stores.
After the two parties successfully reached a cooperation agreement, Yin Yue also received strong support and full cooperation from Tianqiao Department Store.
The mall not only agreed to set up a reception counter on the left side of the stairs in the first floor lobby, and added lighting facilities to facilitate the work of several tailors, but also appreciated Yin Yue's additional suggestions for on-site order considerations.
Subsequently, at her request, we decisively planned a special channel for queuing with yellow lines on the ground.
We also arranged for electricians to hoist an 18-inch color TV on an iron frame above the reception counter to relieve customers' boredom.
As a result, on Monday this week, as soon as the four sewing machines were put out and the free service was advertised, it really got off to a good start and won praise and welcome from the majority of customers.
And there is an unexpected surprise. Not only many customers of Pierre Cardin discount stores also hope to enjoy such services.
After effective communication between the two stores, I happily joined the queue.
Even many people who bought fabrics on the second floor and planned to make their own clothes, or hired tailors, saw how popular the sewing club on the first floor was and heard that it was the designated service provider for several specialty stores. They also took the initiative to Come and ask if you accept the garment making business.
No, this second day was busier than yesterday, which not only significantly boosted the sales of Yin Yue's specialty stores and Pierre Cardin discount stores.
Even the amount of clothing business undertaken by the sewing club and the customer flow of the shopping mall have increased significantly!
Everyone is really happy.
And there is another good phenomenon in the store that Yin Yue did not expect, that is, the single customer transaction rate has increased.
This means that the products in the store are more attractive to consumers, and there are more regular and repeat customers, probably because of the promotion effect of this free service.
Yin Yue naturally believes that when this service becomes more widely known by media reports, the number of customers who come here will reach a higher number.
The only thing that makes people a little worried is that it is too busy, which is much more than expected, and the sewing club seems to be a bit overwhelmed.
No, as soon as I thought of this, a voice sounded from beside Yin Yue, who also raised this question.
"Manager Yin, fortunately you haven't left yet. I have something to discuss with you. It's about the arrangements for the sewing club. Can we talk now?"
Yin Yue turned her head and said I saw a handsome man in a white shirt, who turned out to be Su Jin, the director of a street clothing factory.
"Hey, Director Su, are you here? Please tell me something, and don't be polite."
"Yes...it's like this. You have also seen it. The four people in the sewing club are simply too busy now. At least four more people have to be transferred to make it enough. But this place is not enough. I am afraid that the other side of the stairs will be occupied. Can you...can you...can you..."
Facing Yin Yue's smiling face, Su Jin, who had never known shyness, suddenly felt a little nervous.
I don’t know why I got stuck, and suddenly I couldn’t speak any more.
But Yin Yue is a smart girl who is obedient and listens well, so she spoke up for him.
"Do you need me to communicate with the mall? This is a good thing. The mall will also support it, I think there is no problem. Is there enough manpower in the sewing club? They are all aunties who can only work in their spare time. There are only a few people who have time to come here, so even changing shifts will be difficult, right?”
"Yes, it is indeed a bit tight, but it doesn't matter. The factory is now a bit relaxed in terms of manpower. We can spare two people to help first, which will at least help solve the pattern making business."
Yin Yue immediately nodded happily. .
"That's it, then I'll negotiate with the mall tomorrow. I think one morning is almost enough. Well, if you send someone over tomorrow afternoon, it should be no problem."
"That...that's great, but...there's one more thing..."
"And?"
Facing Yin Yue's unexpected and puzzled look, Su Jin's heart beat twice more suddenly, and she was immediately speechless.
And then he felt ashamed for his failure.
He coughed twice, took a deep breath quietly, finally regained some composure, and softly spoke out his plan.
"Manager Yin, you arranged for people from the sewing club to alter clothes on site. It is indeed a clever move. Not only does it kill two birds with one stone, but the effect is really good. But according to my observation this afternoon, I discovered a problem. That is It takes too much time and energy to discuss specific size issues. Customers and tailors often have to take out rulers and compare in person for a long time to determine how to change. This directly leads to longer queue times. In fact, some customers are smarter. I probably often make my own clothes, and I know how to use my fingers to measure them, so I can shape them myself in advance. I just need to meet and talk to the tailor with a few fingers. So I thought, if I can make all customers have an idea in advance, it will definitely improve efficiency. . Then it's better..."
Unexpectedly, after hearing Su Jin's words, Yin Yue understood it and couldn't help but take the initiative to intervene.
"...Why don't we prepare some leather tape measures and pens and paper for measuring clothes to facilitate customers, so that they can measure and record them before queuing up. Great! Director Su, your suggestion is great, and you have practical experience. Ah. It's my fault that I didn't expect it, and it bothered the tailors. Don't worry, I will implement it tomorrow."
Su Jin couldn't help but be full of surprises.
First, he didn't expect that Yin Yue's brain was so fast, and it was really easy to talk to smart people.
Secondly, he also felt that his ability was not worthy of mention. This girl was the truly talented master, and he deserved such praise.
So I became busy and humble. "Manager Yin, please don't say that. You are only thinking about big things, how can you think about these trivial things. I only thought of it because I think about making clothes every day. It's not my ability."
“It can’t be said that if you can satisfy customers, you can increase sales. How can this be a trivial matter? Why is it not your ability? Director Su, you really reminded me that you got it in time. I am so grateful. Let’s not do this. Let me buy you a cigarette, just to express my feelings. It’s your choice, Peony or Hilton, don’t be polite to me, and don’t dislike it.”
"Ah? How is this possible? No, no, no. You thank me? Then how should I thank you? Just say that you help count the sales of goods in the store every week. That is really a big help to me. Otherwise, how can the factory Can it operate so well, with no backlog, and maintain output and profit growth at the same time?”
“This is not my fault. I just provided a little market feedback information. The key determining factor is still in the factory. The clothing is of good style and quality..."
"Why is marketing not important? Why does every company have to build a brand and advertise?"
At this point, both of them laughed happily and sincerely.
The smile contained both relief and appreciation for each other.
However, just as the atmosphere was getting better, it was very conducive for them to further delve into the topic and deepen their working friendship.
It was also when Su Jin began to realize that he had made a mistake and regretted that he had just missed such a good opportunity. He was about to make amends and took advantage of the opportunity to invite Yin Yue to have dinner with him as a thank you.
On the color TV hanging high above the heads of the customers in line, a sudden international news item from the "Xinwen Lianbo" column suddenly attracted Yin Yue's attention.
It was like a hypnosis immediately, attracting her spirit and eyes.
Su Jin followed suit subconsciously.
As a result, he looked at the TV screen with curiosity, and it became even more strange.
Because he discovered that what was being broadcast on TV was about the opening of the Tokyo stock market and the foreign exchange market that day, and they were going hand in hand!
He could not imagine at all what significance such news would have to Yin Yue, how far away it was from their lives!
At the scene, all the customers in line showed little interest in the collective excitement of Japan's financial market, and turned a deaf ear to the predictions of economists analyzing data.
Almost everyone seems to have nothing to do with themselves. No one knows what the stock market and the foreign exchange market are.
It doesn’t matter if it goes up or down!
Everyone was still chatting about things they were interested in.
For example, how do you change your clothes? What TV show will you play tonight?
There are also all kinds of parents who are short-lived and arrogant...
Only Yin Yue is watching here.
He was so focused that he was so moved that he even couldn't help but clenched his fists and waved them quietly twice.
Why is she so excited?
What does this have to do with her?
After the news finally ended, Su Jin couldn't help but stare at Yin Yue's beautiful side face and asked, regardless of the abruptness.
Unexpectedly, Yin Yue smiled even brighter.
"Mr. Ning! Mr. Ning is so awesome! He is in Japan! Don't you know? I'm so happy! Everything goes well for Mr. Ning in Tokyo!"
Su Jin listened completely He was stunned, even though he knew that Ning Weimin went to Japan.
But I never expected that Ning Weimin, who was already in Tokyo, would be involved in this matter. Yin Yue was actually happy for him and cheered for him.
He suddenly felt inexplicably sad, but he still resisted and continued to inquire.
"What's wrong with Mr. Ning? Isn't he on business? What does he have to do with this news?"
However, despite being elated, Yin Yue refused to reveal anything more. Bid farewell to him very politely.
"Director Su, I'm really tired today. If there's nothing else to do, I'll leave first. Let's see you tomorrow..."
Su Jin is not stupid enough, so he quickly caught her Live the last chance.
"Hey, Manager Yin, are you hungry? I haven't eaten either. Otherwise, let's eat something outside together and I'll take you back. Look, it's already dark and the road is not easy to walk. You're a girl... …”
Unexpectedly, Yin Yue shook her head and thanked her directly.
"No, thank you, Director Su, for your kindness. I'm in a hurry and have to go to class."
"Class? Accounting. Don't you have class only on Monday, Wednesday and Friday? Today is Tuesday. Huh? "
The following words revealed information that made Su Jin, who was deeply in love with him, even more heartbroken.
"I'm studying Japanese at the Radio and TV University. I have to go back and listen to the radio..."
"Learn Japanese?"
"Yes, Mr. Ning's focus in recent years should be on Japan. , I think it will definitely be helpful for him to learn more. Okay, that's it, goodbye."
"Goodbye..."
Huh? Is it all for him? Could it be that Yin Yue...will also go to Japan?
Yeah, I should have known better.
Otherwise, why would Manager Ning go abroad with confidence and actually hand over such a large property to a girl's family to manage it on his behalf?
Is there any need to talk about their relationship?
Su Jin stared at Yin Yue's graceful retreating figure in a daze.
Although his heart was clearly in twitching pain at this time, the reason of being self-aware and the morality of being grateful and repaying others together made him restrain and give in that went against his personal emotions.
After all, Ning Weimin was also his great benefactor!
Besides, how could he deserve such a strong, smart, studious and beautiful girl?
How can he compare himself with Manager Ning of Pierre Cardon Company who wants talent and appearance?
Obviously the two of them are a match made in heaven, so why does he have to be a frog in a well who covets swans and brings humiliation to himself?
It seems that the tickets for the "Temple of Heaven Mid-Autumn Lantern Festival" he hid in his trouser pocket will never have another chance to be delivered to Yin Yue.
But...fortunately, I haven't had time to say this yet, otherwise it would have been awkward. How could we work together in the future?
Now...at least I can still see her often...
On this day, at this moment, Su Jin truly experienced the feeling of "treasuring your beauty and not spitting it out".
