Manhattan Reborn 1978

Chapter 16 Shirley and New Ideas

As soon as David entered the apartment, the phone rang. It was Polly who called: "I called you several times, but you are not there. I need you to go to the lawyer tomorrow to sign the security company's documents. As a boss, many documents are required." I want your signature.

Wait for me to pick you up at the apartment at one o'clock in the afternoon. We will go together. I will bring the invitation and information together.that's all. "

Crackling, Polly arranged vigorously.

David responded slowly and hung up.

These sisters have really become strong women now!

This is not the same Polly who cried for a week when she saw her first child was so ugly.

In fact, at that time, Polly already had her sister's experience of giving birth to someone else to draw on, but when it was her turn, maybe she had some hormonal imbalance during pregnancy?

She couldn't control herself at all. . .It was so sad to cry. . .

David laughed at her for over a year about this.She holds a grudge.

David sighed and hummed a tune unconsciously: "The woman at the foot of the mountain is a tiger. You, please don't fall in love! La la la."

After sex, wash up and go to bed.

When I opened my eyes, it was another sunny day.

He opened the system first and took a look. Points: 37

Yesterday morning's points were 18 points, an increase of 19 points throughout the day.

Ok.

There are still too few people in the company.

In the future, if you find ways to expand the scale and impact more people's lives, you can earn more points.

If all the people in the United States were my employees, wouldn’t I be a billionaire with points?Haha~

There are a lot of things to do today, so let’s get down to business first.

After packing himself up, David came to the tailor shop introduced by Ludi.

This is a small store in lower Manhattan, with an inconspicuous sign hanging at the door.

Push the door and go inside.

The bell on the shop door jingled.

A Chinese girl was busy behind the counter. Some one-size-fits-all suits were hung on the left and right walls of the store. David was a little surprised by the appearance of the Chinese girl, but he didn't show it.

The old tailor came out of his studio at the back of the shop.

David introduced himself and said that Ludy had made an appointment for him to buy a suit today.

There are two more friends who will come later. He will wait here.

After hearing this, the old tailor knew that he was the lucky boy Lu Di said, and said to him very kindly:

"I heard from Ludy that you started a company with Polly from the old Malkin family."

Dawei didn't expect that the old tailor also knew about this.

Somewhat surprised, he said: "Yes, we rented a small building at 40th Street and No. 12th Avenue. We are currently renovating it and preparing to open several companies."

How many companies!The little guy now is really awesome!The old tailor sighed in his heart.

Afterwards, the two chatted, and David learned that the old tailor and Ludy were also related. Ludy's ex-wife was the old tailor's niece.

David suddenly felt that the relationships among the Italian people around him were really complicated.

There are probably some relatives and friends wherever you go.

The old tailor asked David to stand up and act like a wooden man, and the old tailor measured his body size.

David introduced him to the plan of opening a low-price store.

I heard that David was going to open a discount store and praised the business. The current economic environment is not good and there are too many people unemployed.

If such an affordable store with low prices and good quality really opens, I believe the business will be very good.

It will definitely be very popular with poor people!

After measuring the size, the old tailor gave David a suit of one size fits all and said to David, "You have a great figure! You can easily change this suit and wear it."

Then he handed the clothes to the Chinese girl and gave a few instructions.

Then he pulled David to sit down at the small table next to him, poured coffee, and the two continued to chat.

He gave David some suggestions, such as adding more daily necessities in people’s lives in addition to food and drinks.

Many manufacturers of daily necessities that people live in are also having a hard time. If we can give them some orders now, we can not only get their inventory at low prices.

You can also find some small companies and factories that can't hold on and charge them at low prices to produce and sell them yourself.

For example, the manufacturers that provide fabrics and some ingredients for his small store are now unable to make ends meet.

This suggestion reminded Dawei, who took out the notebook he carried with him and asked the old tailor in detail about the current survival status of the textile and garment industry, as well as some upstream and downstream manufacturers.

As people's consumption levels gradually decrease, clothing sales have also been shrinking.

As some raw material suppliers, various cotton and linen materials, etc., also stock large quantities of goods in the warehouses of various dealers.

The sales volume of mid-to-low-end clothing has continued to decline in the past two years, and even if the prices are cleared and the prices are high, they cannot be sold.

As a labor-intensive industry, some manufacturers such as textiles and clothing are currently in a semi-stop state.

David thought this was a good time to enter.

You can start by looking for some small clothing processing factories.

Take out a small notebook and write it down.

The old tailor watched David ask questions and take notes seriously, feeling a little curious in his heart.

Could it be that the lucky boy relied on these notebooks to realize those surprising business plans bit by bit?

At this time, the store door bell rang, and black and white Mike walked in together.

David introduced them to each other, and the old tailor picked up his ruler and went to work, choosing suitable suits for both of them.

The Chinese girl was very nimble with her hands and feet. At this time, she had already modified her suit and brought it over for Dawei to try on again.

David put it on and tried a few movements to raise his arms. He felt that his shoulders, waist and cuffs were more comfortable and fit better than before.

Indeed, the old tailor has two brushes!

He chatted with the Chinese girl for a while and learned that this shy Chinese girl with some freckles on her face was called Wu Xiaoxue, and her English name was Shirley.

Her home is in Chinatown next to her. Her father also owns a tailor shop, and she also studied fashion design at the New York Fashion Institute of Technology.

It is said that [-]% of the people in the New York fashion industry graduated from this college.

The old tailor measured the sizes of the black and white Mike, handed them to Shirley, and turned to David to chat about her.

Shirley's father and the old tailor were old friends, and Shirley showed talent in clothing design since she was a child.

She herself likes to design different beautiful clothes.

When I was 12 years old, I designed beautiful children's clothing for my younger brothers and sisters.

Later, her father made samples of them and sold them in the store, which sold well.

After hearing this, David became very interested in Shirley?

Ask Shirley which major she studied at the Fashion Institute of Technology?

Shirley introduced: “I learned technical training in fashion art and fashion design at a fashion school.

Particularly fond of children's clothing, sportswear and knitted clothing products.

This spring I also went to the Art Institute of Chicago under the school's organization.

Participated in a two-month student exchange activity. "

Now she has graduated, but there are no job opportunities.

I helped learn in the old tailor's shop, hoping to find a suitable job.

This very delicate-looking Chinese girl is in a state of ecstasy now. .Squirted at David.

The more David talked, the more he felt that Shirley was promoting him, and the old tailor was playing drums and assisting beside him.

The apparel industry is currently in a slump and is not an exception, but David can find some ways to break the situation.

He thought of Forrest, who was conquering the interstates of the South.

The T-shirt with the smiley face pattern that Forrest Gump wiped off his face in the movie has been a big seller, so he can make it now.

Um. .Forrest Gump doesn't care about these small details.

And the phrase "Shit Happens." - Shit happens!

The seals were everywhere, and the fire was bubbling. .

Be sure to register a patent!

Start it as soon as you meet the lawyer.

How about starting an advertising agency?

The old tailor and Shirley looked at David holding a pen and giggling. They didn't know what was going on and felt worried.

Looking at Black Mike, he said that David always behaves like this these days, maybe he has some strange and good idea at this time.

The two suddenly realized.

After David wrote down his thoughts in his notebook, he looked at the probing eyes of the two and said to Shirley and the old tailor: "I am going to sign the documents with Polly this afternoon, and then I will consult our accountant and lawyer.

I am optimistic about the clothing market now. After I have been busy for a few days, I will register a company in which I can open a personal design studio for Shirley. "

Shirley was trembling with excitement after hearing this. You must know that even the slightly famous senior designers want to have their own studio. This means that she has encountered the greatest recognition and affirmation in her life.

"Thank you! Thank you David! Ah! No! Boss, thank you boss!"

Several people looked at Shirley's incoherent expression and felt amused.

David agreed and gave the promise, and the old tailor was also very happy. He understood that today he actually gave David a problem.

Now he wants to acknowledge this favor.

David asked Shirley to help modify the black and white Mike's suit, and the three of them left with the modified clothes.

Before leaving, he made an agreement with Shirley that Shirley would go to the company to find him after the company was renovated, and then he wrote down the phone number of the tailor shop.

I took my suit and got into Mike Bai's car and returned to the apartment. We agreed to meet here tomorrow afternoon. Mike Bai was responsible for getting a handsome Lincoln, so he had to hold up the cards for this occasion.

Black Mike and David took a bite, and Polly opened the door and came in. Seeing that they still had the rest of the pizza, she picked up a piece and swallowed it in several bites.

He drank half a cup of Coke in one breath and then said: "We have found the accountant and lawyer who are already waiting. Let's leave now. Hurry up!"

Well, sister Li Lifeng is online!

After wiping their mouths clean, the three of them went downstairs and set off.
