Although an order of five hundred thousand sounds like a lot, pantyhose are all made on an assembly line.
In addition, the two sock factories were both large sock factories, so the production was very fast, and all the goods were delivered after ten days.
In the ten days before delivery, General Manager Sun and Ren Baozhu had no time to spare.
According to Lin Mai's instructions, he registered a trademark for his own pantyhose - called Jiamei Socks.
Salesmen were sent to rent counters in department stores in the top ten cities in the south to sell pantyhose.
We also invited the first, second and third runner-up of the Jinxiu Cup Model Contest to shoot a print advertisement for pantyhose.
After making preparations, we began to distribute leaflets in major cities across the country to let the general public know what pantyhose are.
Some fashionable young women saw the flyer saying that pantyhose would not fall off easily when worn on the body, and many people were moved.
I tend to roll down my stockings when wearing stockings, which causes the stockings to fall off and make them uncomfortable to wear. Also, it is really embarrassing to adjust them in public.
If you have pantyhose, these problems no longer exist.
Lin Mai's pantyhose were not yet on the market, so these fashionable young women asked where they could buy pantyhose.
But after asking around, I couldn't find out where it was sold.
Just when those fashionable young women are dejected.
On April 1st, huge advertisements for Jiamei Socks were hung overnight in department stores in many big cities.
Women who love beauty all flock to the Jiamei Socks counter in department stores to buy stockings.
Although the salesperson repeatedly stated that once the pantyhose left the counter, they could not be exchanged or refunded, but people still flocked to buy them.
Although pantyhose are not cheap, many people buy two or three pairs at a time for fear that they will not be sold in the future.
Because Linmai is sold simultaneously in the top ten cities across the country.
There is no pressure at all to sell 100,000 pairs of pantyhose in each city.
Only 10,000 pairs of pantyhose are sold in a day, and 100,000 pairs of pantyhose can be sold out in ten days and a half at the longest.
General Manager Sun finally breathed a sigh of relief, these pantyhose would not fall on his hands.
But before he waited ten days, many other brands of pantyhose had sprung up on the market.
General Manager Sun became anxious again and went directly to the school to report the situation to Lin Mai.
Lin Mai was calm and composed: "Our country's ability to copycat is very strong. Isn't it normal for others to follow suit and produce pantyhose? There's nothing to make a fuss about."
"I'm not making a fuss about others following the trend and producing pantyhose.
I am worried because others are following the trend and producing pantyhose, which will affect the sales of our pantyhose.”
Lin Mai asked him: "How many pairs of pantyhose do we have?"
General Manager Sun was stunned for a moment: "We haven't counted yet."
Lin Madao: "According to the fact that each city only sells 10,000 pairs of pantyhose every day, in the past eight days, each city has sold at least 70,000 to 80,000 pairs of pantyhose.
There aren’t many pantyhose left, and it’s not like we can’t sell these few pantyhose, so what do you have to worry about?”
General Manager Sun was enlightened: Yes, there are only 10,000 or 20,000 pairs of pantyhose left in each city at most. What is he worried about?
Lin Maidao: "Our pantyhose business has already started to flourish, so we don't want to make a one-time deal.
I plan to keep selling.
You go tell those two sock factories and we will sign another order for 500,000 pairs of pantyhose with each of them."
General Manager Sun was a little puzzled: "Now we are no longer the only one selling pantyhose. There are so many brands of pantyhose on the market.
We have to produce so many pantyhose, and the sales pressure is really too great.
Why don't we choose one of these two sock factories to process it specifically for us?
We only process 500,000 pairs of pantyhose at a time. We will place an order after these 500,000 pairs of pantyhose are almost sold.
This way there is no sales pressure and no worries about inventory.”
Lin Mai said: "It's getting warmer in the north now.
The one million pairs of pantyhose produced this time are planned to be sold in major cities in the north and small and medium-sized cities in the south to seize the opportunity and make a wave of money.
If you only choose one sock factory for processing, production will slow down, which will affect your market share, and the gain will outweigh the loss.
You don’t have to worry about the pantyhose market being saturated.
All the pantyhose on the market are imitating ours.
We have changed the style of this batch of pantyhose. They are different from the pantyhose on the market, but they are still competitive."
Under Lin Mai's instructions, General Manager Sun selected four new styles from the pantyhose samples that Chen Feng sent to Lin Mai last time, and sent two pairs each to the two sock factories that process for his family.
A new style.
As soon as the new pantyhose from Jiamei Socks came on the market, it completely destroyed those pantyhose on the market.
Although the sales are not as good as the initial success, they are still quite good.
The days are like flowing water, and it has arrived on April 14th quietly, even if it is very warm in the Northeast, let alone the capital.
The streets of Beijing are full of young women wearing pantyhose.
Girls dressed up and walking on the street become a beautiful scenery.
Today is the day that Wu Xiaoyu’s baby Daizu is released from prison.
As early as a few days ago, Wu Xiaoyu was so excited that she lost consciousness.
Yesterday after dinner, when I was helping Fu Shougui wash the dishes, several dishes were broken, which made Aunt Fu kindly scold him several times for his carelessness.
The prison is located on the outskirts of Beijing. You have to transfer several times by bus, and it takes at least an hour and a half to get there.
In order to receive her precious baby Bei from prison as soon as possible, Wu Xiaoyu got up before six o'clock in the morning.
He didn't even bother to eat the noodles he had packed away for breakfast, so he just hummed a runaway ditty and walked out the door.
He had to catch the first bus in the morning to take him to the prison.
The first bus in Beijing leaves at 6:30 in the morning. It takes an hour and a half to drive and then walk on a small road.
I can arrive at the prison before 8:30 and meet my precious baby. It's very exciting just thinking about it.
It was already past seven in the morning when Wu Xiaoyu was about to transfer to the third bus after a long journey.
Wu Xiaoyu went out without breakfast in the morning, and her stomach was already growling with hunger.
Seeing a breakfast stall next to the station, he walked over and looked at each one.
Some sell steamed buns, some sell stir-fried liver rings, and some sell meat buns and wontons.
Wu Xiaoyu's mouth watered when she saw it.
But he was short of money and only had a few dollars left.
He still needs to use these few dollars to support Lin Bei, so he can't spend them carelessly.
Although he lives in Fu Shougui's house, they only let him live and eat for free, and they don't give him any pocket money.
Wu Xiaoyu bought herself two big steamed buns to satisfy her hunger.
Although he is short and thin, he is still a man.
In addition, after being in prison for two years, there was no fat or water in my stomach, so I only had to eat three large steamed buns in the morning.
But for Lin Bei, he saved everything he could.
Wu Xiaoyu bought the steamed buns and turned around while eating. He accidentally bumped into a girl carrying a bowl of fried liver.
The bowl of fried liver splashed all over the girl, and even burned her until she jumped.
Wu Xiaoyu was afraid that the girl would pick on him and demand medical expenses.
Seeing that the girl was alone, he took a preemptive strike, glared, and said fiercely: "You can't walk without eyes?"
The girl was burned to tears and was waiting for Wu Xiaoyu to apologize.
Unexpectedly, they didn't apologize and even said bad words to me.
The girl was so angry that she shed tears. She pulled Wu Xiaoyu and refused to let him go, insisting that he pay for the medical expenses and the bowl of fried liver.
When Wu Xiaoyu saw that the bus she was riding had already entered the station, she kicked the girl to the ground and wanted to get on the bus.
As long as he gets on the bus, that girl can't do anything to him.
I want him to pay for the medical expenses and the bowl of fried liver, and wait for the next life.
The girl's boyfriend was buying meat buns at another food stall.
I saw that my girlfriend was being bullied, and the bully wanted to run away.
He didn't buy any meat buns either, so he rushed up and tore Wu Xiaoyu off as he was about to get on the bus.
He was beaten and kicked, and he was asked to pay for the medical expenses and the bowl of fried liver.
In order to save the few dollars she had, Wu Xiaoyu claimed that she didn't need money but her life.
The few dollars he had were for Lin Bei, and he couldn't hand them over even if he died.
The boy had no choice but to beat him again, then cursed and took his girlfriend to the hospital for treatment of burns.
As soon as the young couple left, Wu Xiaoyu, who was lying on the ground pretending to be a dead dog a moment ago, immediately got up from the ground.
As soon as the bus he wanted to take arrived at the stop, he got on the bus immediately.
Although he hurried slowly along the way, he was delayed a lot of time because of the collision that happened on the road.
When he arrived at the prison, it was already past nine in the morning, and Lin Bei had already disappeared.
