Dong Guoqiang sneered, "Isn’t it that Zhang... Zhang what’s her na from your departnt store?"
He thought hard for a mont before continuing, "The one with slightly dark skin, a bit chubby, with two big braids, and talks so high and mighty that you’d think she’s a leader from sowhere else."
Su Xiaoxiao imdiately thought of Zhang Dongi and was left speechless.
Is Zhang Dongi a fly? Why does she always buzz wherever there’s a benefit?
She couldn’t help but ask, "Director Dong, what did she say to you?"
ntioning this made Dong Guoqiang angry; that girl is young, but she sure is bold.
Talking as if she’s doing good for their factory?
But when asked what exactly that good was, she stamred without a clear answer.
After much hesitation, she just kept repeating that he should sponsor clothes, brazenly claiming it’s for the factory’s good, helping with free advertisent.
If not for his good manners, Director Dong would have nearly thrown her out in anger.
Thinking about this, Dong Guoqiang’s face darkened, "Comrade Su, it’s not that I don’t want to help you, you’re a benefactor to our factory. Anything I can personally help you with, I’ll try my best, but matters of the factory aren’t decided by alone. I hope you understand. Other than this, everything else is negotiable."
Su Xiaoxiao fully understood Dong Guoqiang’s feelings, "Director Dong, maybe Mr. Zhang didn’t explain so things clearly to you, let elaborate more. If you think it’s feasible, please sponsor us; if not, that’s okay too."
Upon hearing this, Dong Guoqiang relaxed a lot. See, it’s nice listening to what Comrade Su says; her attitude just makes people feel comfortable.
If only Comrade Su had co first, he might have agreed, but now...
Oh, they are colleagues from the sa departnt store, why is there such a gap between people?
After all, having helped him imnsely before, he should at least give Comrade Su a chance to speak.
Su Xiaoxiao cleared her throat, "Director Dong, I see that there are more than a dozen clothing factories big and small in our city. Also, due to efficiency issues, quite a few factories have closed down over the past two years. Though our clothing factory is doing well currently, a horse might trip, and potentially face low performance tis. Besides, I noticed that your sales channels are limited. If any issue arises with them, you might face similar problems as those factories. Haven’t you thought about expanding more sales channels?"
Upon hearing this, Dong Guoqiang was slightly taken aback. He expected Comrade Su to talk about the benefits of sponsorship as soon as she started but surprisingly, she addressed this.
In fact, he has been troubled by this problem lately. Their Red Star Clothing Factory is a well-known enterprise in the city, indeed receiving nurous dostic and international orders annually.
However, in the past two years, the order quantities from several partners began to decline, resulting in the workers’ wages reducing year by year.
For this reason, the factory has sent out several salespeople to explore the market with minimal success.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but ask, "Comrade Su, do you have any good ideas?"
Su Xiaoxiao chuckled, "I do have one, which is advertising."
Dong Guoqiang showed so interest, "How to advertise?"
"It’s very simple, Director Dong. You sponsor our performance uniforms for the evening party, and print our factory’s slogan and contact number on the back of the clothes. When performing, the entire city’s audience will be able to see it."
"This is the unified evening gala for our whole city departnt store. Not to ntion the audience at the site, when the TV station records and broadcasts it, won’t the advertising effect be evident?"
"Just the cost of a few clothes, yet it allows everyone in the city to see our outfits effortlessly. They can feel the fabric’s quality and craftsmanship thoroughly. What do you think?"
Initially, because of Zhang Dongi’s lofty attitude, Dong Guoqiang had resolved to disagree, yet he was moved imdiately after listening to Comrade Su.
This display effect surely beats sending people out until they are exhausted.
He hardly hesitated, imdiately deciding, "Alright, no problem."
Su Xiaoxiao bead with joy, "Director Dong, let thank you on behalf of the leaders of the departnt store for your generous sponsorship. Also, I plan to design these clothes myself and present you with the design sketches in three days. Would that be alright?"
"Comrade Su, you can design clothes?"
Dong Guoqiang did not expect this young girl to be so capable, imdiately looking at her with appreciation.
Su Xiaoxiao smiled shyly, "Just a bit, barely presentable."
Her drawing skills are quite decent. Although she hasn’t formally studied fashion design, she has seen plenty of those modern sales clerk uniforms, sketching one or two sets isn’t an issue!
Dong Guoqiang’s face lit up with a smile as he warmly shook her hand.
Having settled the sponsorship, Su Xiaoxiao returned to the departnt store in high spirits.
After hustling all day, it happened to be ti for their early departure from work.
As she reached the counter, Zhang Yulan and a few others attending training surrounded her imdiately.
"Xiaoxiao, we heard you went to Red Star Clothing Factory for sponsorship. How did it go?"
As soon as Zhang Yulan asked, Zhang Dongi’s sarcastic voice ca from the side.
"How do you think? That Director Dong is not particularly easy to talk to. I bet it’s a no-go. He’s not a fool to provide us with free clothes."
Without turning back, Su Xiaoxiao knew exactly who it was.
"Just because you couldn’t doesn’t an others lack the ability."
Su Xiaoxiao said, leaving Zhang Dongi ignored, and told Qin Shuang and the others, "Let’s head to the eting room first; I’ll explain in detail there."
"What? Director Dong agreed?"
Zhang Yulan did not expect Su Xiaoxiao actually managed it and looked at her with delight.
Qin Shuang also eyed her with admiration, "Xiaoxiao, you are amazing."
Zhang Dongi leaned against the door, nibbling on sunflower seeds, full of discontent.
"Pah, no one knows what ans were used to get that sponsorship."
Qian Xiaoyan hearing this, was a bit unhappy, "Zhang Dongi, what do you an? Comrade Su helped us secure the sponsorship, shouldn’t you be glad?"
Zhang Dongi pouted, "It’s just so worthless clothes, who cares?"
Su Xiaoxiao still unbothered, replied with a smile, "Oh, I forgot. I should ntion to Director Dong that Mr. Zhang is competing individually, so there’s no need to wear our work uniforms. Sponsoring five sets of clothes will do."
Upon hearing she wouldn’t be getting a uniform, Zhang Dongi was even more infuriated.
Why did Su Xiaoxiao manage to secure sponsorship, while her own efforts with Director Dong led to nothing?
And now, they’re isolating her? Just wait, co performance day, she shall wow the audience, outshining their la act.
With this thought, Zhang Dongi tossed her sunflower seed shells, storming off angrily.
Just as she reached the door, she stumbled into soone.
