Take the long view

"I can't bear to drink it!"

Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Chen Mo frowned slightly, but remembering Jiang Cheng's honest demeanor, his brow smoothed out again.

However, not drinking it wouldn't do. He had given Jiang Cheng and the others the tea specifically to have them help him consume it.

Once they finished it, he could replenish it for them.

This was, in effect, adding another expense.

Thinking of this, Chen Mo spoke up slightly.

"Not being able to bear to drink it won't do. This tea was bought to be drunk."

"Besides, it's not just for you to drink alone. You can also use this dragon well tea to entertain guests; this undoubtedly showcases our company's strength. You can also serve it to the company's employees; that's perfectly fine."

"Therefore, this tea must be drunk. Drink it every day. If you run out, the Group will replenish the stock."

"How about this? You still have a lot of tea left, right? I'll give you one month to finish the remaining dragon well tea."

Chen Mo looked at Jiang Cheng with a slightly more serious gaze.

"I understand, Mr. Chen."

Jiang Cheng nodded, feeling a bit ashamed in his heart; he had been thinking too narrowly.

"As long as you understand. I will check on it in a month."

Chen Mo spoke indifferently, then shifted the topic to the purpose of his visit today.

"Yesterday, the Pet Park hosted a Pet Fashion Show to promote our pet clothing. I wonder how the sales were?"

"Mr. Chen, don't worry, I will definitely finish that tea in a month."

Jiang Cheng hurriedly spoke, then revealed a slight smile.

"Mr. Chen, the sales for the pet clothing are very good. In just one night, we had 540,000 in sales."

540,000 in sales in one night?

Hearing the 540,000 sales figure, Chen Mo was stunned.

540,000.

That was just one night!

If this went on for a long time, wouldn't the Garment factory end up relying on this pet clothing for profit?

"However, this 540,000 in sales is only because that was all the inventory we had. We were worried about the target audience for pet clothing, so during production, we only produced about 500 sets of each pet clothing style."

"The pet clothing displayed at the Pet Fashion Show was completely sold out in one night. If we let the Garment factory increase the sales volume for each pet clothing style and increase the inventory, our sales would definitely increase again."

Hmm!

Hearing this, Chen Mo frowned tightly.

So the 540,000 in sales was because they ran out of stock!

If I let them increase the inventory, they would end up selling millions! This is unacceptable.

No.

I must stop this.

He placed his teacup on the table and coughed twice.

"The matter of increasing pet clothing production needs further consideration. I believe that not only should we not increase it, but we should actually decrease it."

"Ah!"

Jiang Cheng looked at Mr. Chen, who was sitting opposite him, in astonishment. He had thought that after reporting this, even if Mr. Chen didn't show excitement, he would at least agree.

But he never expected that not only would he not agree, but he would also want to reduce production.

Liu Jie, sitting to the side, was also full of confusion, wondering what this young boss was thinking.

As things stood, increasing production would definitely lead to earning more money.

Yet this Mr. Chen not only refused to increase it, but actually wanted to reduce production.

He really couldn't understand this line of thinking.

Who in this day and age would turn away money?

"Mr. Chen, if we do that, the sales figures will drop significantly."

Jiang Cheng quickly snapped out of it and said to Mr. Chen in a low voice.

"You're thinking about it the wrong way. Don't just look at the immediate benefits; we need to have a long-term vision."

Chen Mo tapped his fingers on the table and continued.

"Pet clothing is, after all, just pet clothing. You need to see the importance of things. If all your energy is focused on pet clothing, then how should we position our Garment factory?"

"We want to build a diversified Garment factory, but this pet clothing can only be one part of the Garment factory; it cannot occupy a dominant position."

"Compared to those pets, we humans occupy the primary position. Do you think the demand for human clothing is higher, or the demand for pet clothing is higher?"

Chen Mo looked at Jiang Cheng with a serious gaze.

"Humans, of course!"

Jiang Cheng replied.

Chen Mo patted the table upon hearing this.

"Exactly. Since the demand for human clothing is higher, why should we put so much attention on pet clothing? Isn't that putting the cart before the horse?"

"We can do pet clothing, but we must clearly distinguish which is the main subject we need to develop."

"Although pet clothing can make money right now, we cannot be blinded by temporary profits."

"Therefore, while we can develop pet clothing, we must not invest too much in it. The quantity you originally set was 500 sets for each style. From today on, just produce 300 sets of each style. Once produced, don't produce any more."

Chen Mo said with a serious expression.

Last night, about 500 sets resulted in 540,000 in sales.

This time, with two-fifths less, it would be around 300,000.

Hmm!

Not bad.

Even with this sales figure, while it was already quite high, it wouldn't have much impact on the overall development strategy of the Changfeng Garment Factory or the factory's current consumption.

"Understood, Mr. Chen."

Jiang Cheng nodded, his heart deeply shocked. As expected, Mr. Chen's perspective was just different from theirs.

He was still thinking about how to make the Garment factory profitable, while Mr. Chen was constantly thinking about the future development direction of the factory, not letting temporary profits cloud his judgment.

As expected, Mr. Chen is Mr. Chen; he is not someone they, as employees, can compare to.

He sighed in his heart, but soon thought of something and looked up at Mr. Chen.

"Mr. Chen, if that's the case, the pressure on the design department will be much greater. They will need to design many different styles of pet clothing. Given the current number of people in the design department, it will be very difficult to meet the current requirements for pet clothing."

This was something he had just thought of.

The Pet Fashion Shows at the Corner Pet Park are held twice a week, and each show displays a total of 30 types of pet clothing.

15 types for cats, 15 types for dogs.

With two shows a week, that requires 60 styles of pet clothing.

This is a huge design demand; given the current number of people in the design department, they simply cannot meet this design requirement.

The current pet clothing was all accumulated over the past two months or so, which is enough to support about four shows.

After four shows,

the designs from the design department might not keep up, and according to Mr. Chen's recent requirement, the people in the design department cannot all be focused on designing pet fashion.

"Is that so!"

Hearing Jiang Cheng's words, Chen Mo's eyes lit up slightly.
