Xie Min didn't hold Tang Tianbao accountable because she had listened to Su Ai Lan's words.
”Since that Dafa Garment Processing Plant already had the idea of signing the Flying Bird, you can't insist on that. In Chaozhou, no clothing company has ever been able to compete with Flying Bird. Their public relations are very powerful, so powerful that you can't even imagine it. ” Su Ai Lan read the evening news while lecturing Xie Min. ”Rather than teaching Xie Min, it's more like talking about his own experiences.” Ilan Fashion had fought with the Flying Bird before, but either both sides had lost, or Elan Fashion had lost. In all the history of competition, Suellen had never won.
However, Xie Min was not convinced. The bra's plan was that she would take over half of the market space in the shortest time possible.
Su was worried about her daughter's overconfidence. She looked from the TV screen to Xie Min's puberty face and asked, ”How do you know that your products make up more than half of the market in Chaozhou?”
Xie Min wasn't scared by this veteran entrepreneur either. She confidently asked, ”Isn't a woman half the sky of Tidal City?”
Su Ai Lan smiled. She knew her own woman, but she didn't point out Xie Min's mistake. She wanted her to examine her own body and find out for herself. Suilan smiled and said, ”Overconfidence is pride. ”Don't be so complacent just because you've achieved such a small achievement!”
”Mom, you're really old.” As she spoke, Xie Min suddenly felt that Su Ai Lan's expression wasn't right, and her reaction was very obvious. Xie Min quickly added, ”I mean your thoughts have aged. You don't understand the current fashion idea of the nineties. I have my own ideas. ”
Su Ai Lan realized that Xie Min's self-confidence had reached a critical point. If she didn't come forward to diagnose her daughter, she might fall into a trap and fall even deeper into the trap.
Suellen went straight to the point and said, ”Min'er, your grades are outstanding, but they can't be inflated. Think about it, all the women in Chaozhou are wearing your products? Definitely not! I'm sure of that. But if you think about the Flying Bird, they've already taken care of two big areas: leisure and exercise. How can you compare your sales with the Flying Bird? Even Eli Vogue accounts for only a third of sales. ”
Xie Min was a strong woman. She would not bow her head in front of Suellen. She did it. The mother and daughter even blushed at the prospect. However, Xie Min was also a pragmatic person. Suellen understood this. She believed that her daughter would not fall out with her for the sake of a clothing factory.
As it turned out, although Xie Min's face turned red from the conflict that Su Ai Lan had caused, she didn't fall out with Su Ai Lan because of this incident. Their relationship was still as good as it was in the past. However, there was no way Xie Min wouldn't take Su Ai Lan's words to heart. As she lay alone in bed, all she could think about was Suellen's words, chewing them over and over, savoring them. She felt that she had really swelled up. This was just the beginning. If he floated up now, then his foundation wouldn't be stable enough, and he would definitely suffer a crushing defeat in the future. There were many ways for merchants to make a fortune, but it was equally important to seize opportunities and replenish one's strength. Without such a big stomach, one would not be able to eat so much food; without such a large bag, one would not be able to store so much gold. These two sentences are popular vernacular in Chaozhou city, but the truth is proved by thousands of years of practice.
Xie Min finally understood. What was hers would always be hers. If it wasn't hers, it would never be hers. Although she was unwilling, with her current strength, she could not compete with the 'Flying Bird'. It would be better for her to take a step back, conserve her strength, and develop her own power. When the day comes when my wings are full and my company is strong, what is there to be afraid of?
In the moment before she fell asleep, she thought of her French friend Margarita Ivicki. She thought of Ivicki's words: If a man succeeds, his failure is temporary; if a man fails, his success is temporary. It was just that back in France, he didn't fully understand this saying. Now that he thought about it, it was rather encouraging. As Xie Min thought this, she suddenly felt that she had let Tang Tianbao down. She shouldn't have given him so much pressure. Whether she signed the contract or not, it had nothing to do with Tang Tianbao. It was Jia Datong who had interfered and reneged on his words. How could Xie Min place all of her responsibilities on her own employees? It was already late spring, and her company didn't have a set of solutions that could be said to satisfy her. Even though designer Tang Tianbao and designer Mo Luo had come up with some solutions before, they could only be considered as stalls in Xie Min's eyes. It wasn't that she looked down on selling good stalls, but she couldn't do stalls since the company was already established.
