LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 17 Mission 3: Bloodbath the global fiber market!
After returning from Nanjing, Gao Yuan went to Guangzhou and Shenzhen non-stop to discuss cooperation with other fast fashion companies, such as Global Tesco Group, which owns the Zaful brand.
Unsurprisingly, these companies were also impressed by the fiber's powerful properties.
Especially after learning that Xiyin Group had signed a cooperation agreement with Gaoyuan, they immediately signed the contract without hesitation and vowed to abide by the slightly strange contents in the contract.
Perhaps this is the cruel pressure that technology brings to business.
When smart phones appeared, button phones were destined to be eliminated.
When the automobile was invented, horse-drawn carriages lost their place of survival and became a means of transporting tourists for sightseeing.
Time has entered August, and unknowingly, there is an undercurrent surging in the global fast fashion field.
Tens of thousands of clothing factories located in the north and south of China have begun to receive a brand-new fabric.
This kind of fabric has a special molecular structure and unheard of water permeability. It is nearly three times more powerful than the world's best quick-drying fabric, DuPont's top fiber COOLMAX.
Although China's garment industry has suffered serious losses in recent years, it still accounts for half of the world's market and is an out-and-out behemoth.
Nowadays, this behemoth is starting up quickly, and batches of containers filled with finished clothing are being sent to every corner of the world via land, water, air and rail, and placed in store windows and shelves.
…
"Dad, Mom, look what I brought you."
In the evening, Gao Yuan dragged a huge woven bag back home with great effort and yelled at his mother who was cooking and his father who was watching TV.
He has been busy with work recently, and Gao Yuan has not been home for a whole week. His mother was naturally very happy to see him, and the woven bag that was almost as tall as a person also made her full of curiosity.
"What's in the bag?" Mother asked
"Clothes." Gao Yuan replied.
The mother was immediately startled, "You kid, why do you buy so many clothes? How long will it take you to wear them all?"
"What a pretty dress."
"There are still shirts."
"They are all brand new and good clothes. How can you get them in a woven bag? It's too casual."
Gao Yuan didn't pay attention to his mother's nagging. In his eyes, the important point was not the clothes at all, but that these clothes all used fabrics produced by himself!
All these garments have a mountain-shaped logo on the inside, with the Chinese character Kunlun underneath, plus the fiber model number X1.
"Handsome, isn't it? From now on, this will be the unique symbol of our family. Any textiles using X fiber fabrics must carry our family's brand trademark." Gao Yuan explained to his parents excitedly.
In fact, this is also a common practice in the textile and apparel industry.
If you are an outdoor sports enthusiast, you may be familiar with the brand GORE-TEX. It is the symbol of North American Gore-Tex fabric and symbolizes the world's most powerful wind and rainproof performance.
In addition, there is a bright yellow VIBRAM logo on the bottom of the mountaineering shoes. This logo of the famous Italian rubber company represents the best wear-resistant sole technology in the world.
And if your T-shirt has the COOLMAX logo, it means that your T-shirt is made of the best quick-drying fabric in the world and is proudly produced by the DuPont Group of North America.
All in all, clothing fabrics are actually branded. Jackets using Gore-Tex technology are often twice as expensive as ordinary jackets because of the blessing of top technology.
Today, the Gao family's small factory actually has a brand, and it is adopted by so many manufacturers. Gao Yuan's father couldn't help but blush, and excitedly held two shirts in his hands.
“It’s really comfortable, soft, gentle, a bit like long-staple cotton, but much better in breathability than long-staple cotton, and it’s even rarer that it doesn’t leak out. Even white fabrics can provide excellent coverage in the sun. It’s very durable and seems to have strong UV protection capabilities.”
Although my mother on the plateau does not deal with fabrics, she is very aware of the quality of fabrics.
Before X-fiber, fabrics that were too light and thin often had the disadvantage of being exposed. Let alone girls, it was also very unsightly for a grown man to walk on the road and have two points clearly visible on his chest.
However, X fiber does not have such shortcomings. The reason why it is light, thin and quick-drying is not achieved by reducing the number of fibers, but by chemical processes to form dense honeycombs inside the fibers.
Let's put it this way, due to the unique honeycomb structure inside, even a woolen coat made of X fiber that looks extremely heavy can be easily lifted with a little finger.
Of course, the current X1-type fiber tends to be breathable and quick-drying, and is a summer fabric. If it were woven into a woolen coat, the cold wind would blow in in winter and freeze people into popsicles.
Xu Qingzhou's team is currently improving and reconstructing X1 fiber and developing X2 thermal fiber. When X2 fiber is launched, it can focus on the autumn and winter market.
In addition, sports X3 type, waterproof X4 type, and many improved fiber versions are also under intensive development.
All in all, X-fiber is like a solid foundation. With this foundation, buildings of various styles, functions and situations can be built on it.
X-fiber finally walked out of the factory and became a commodity in store windows. It was undoubtedly a huge success. Gao Yuan proposed that the family go out to dinner and have two drinks to celebrate.
My parents readily agreed, but Gao Yuan's father resolutely obeyed the doctor's orders and refused to drink a drop of alcohol or eat a bite of greasy food. Even if he did eat meat, it would be relatively bland foods such as steamed mandarin fish and boiled shrimp.
Gao Yuan couldn't help feeling that his father's willpower was really strong and he could resist the temptation of delicious food. He who used to love braised pork so much now didn't even look at it. He was indeed a man trained in the army.
In addition to paying attention to his diet, Gao Xiangnan also insists on exercising twice a day, staring at the alarm clock, taking medicine on time, etc.
Such strict self-discipline made Gao Yuan and his mother completely relieved. As we all know, cerebral infarction is the most feared disease of recurrence. Once a blood vessel is blocked for the second time, whether it can be unblocked is a metaphysical question.
After dinner, Gao Yuan watched TV with his parents for a while, and then helped his mother pack clothes. These clothes were all sent by partners. Many of the styles were too trendy and not suitable for parents at their age.
But in line with the principle of not wasting it, Gao Yuan's mother planned to pack these clothes and give them to relatives and friends, and then take the opportunity to show off that her son has the ability to develop new fabrics, many downstream manufacturers are purchasing them, and the business is booming, etc.
Gao Yuan had no choice but to let his mother do it.
After living in the factory for too long, Gao Yuan felt familiar and warm when he returned to his room at home. The single bed with a latex mattress was really comfortable to sleep on.
In the middle of the night, it started to rain lightly outside. While Gaoyuan was half asleep and half awake, the system suddenly made a beeping sound.
"Is it possible that the mission has been completed?"
Gao Yuan quickly closed his eyes and brought up the system panel.
The words on the huge light screen made him stunned immediately, and the sound of his heartbeat rapidly amplified in the darkness.
Mission 2: Completed.
Mission 3: Bloodbath the global fiber market!
"I'll choke you!" Gao Yuan couldn't help blurting out after seeing clearly the content of the mission.
We are working hard to adjust our schedule and strive to update twice at noon and 8pm.
