Recently, a piece of news was transferred from the entertainment section to the social section, once again occupying the headlines. In the news content, Zhang Heng once again released the voice chat and screenshots with Zheng Shuang, revealing that Zheng Shuang’s salary was 160 million yuan and the daily salary was 2.08 million yuan.
160 million, I have never seen so much money even when playing Monopoly! Seeing this, as an ordinary textile person, I really felt a little “broken”!
The textile business has not been easy to do in the past two years. Starting from 2019, overcapacity broke out collectively, and trade Friction suppressed demand, and cloth was no longer easy to sell, but I never expected that 2019 was just the beginning;
In 20 years, a once-in-a-century new crown epidemic plunged the textile industry into ” “Abyss”, demand has been sharply compressed, and a large amount of inventory has also been accumulated;
In 21, although demand has begun to rebound driven by vaccines, there is still a large amount of inventory in the market Under this situation, the textile business is still difficult to do.
It is difficult to get orders
The supply of fabrics in the market exceeds demand, and the competitiveness of smaller textile companies is limited. It began to shrink sharply. It had no cost advantage over large manufacturers and had disadvantages in terms of connections, capital, and technology. Some old customers who had cooperated with it for a long time also gradually withdrew from it, and it became increasingly difficult to receive orders.
Finding faults and deducting money
After receiving the order, I completed the order as usual, but the customer felt If you are not satisfied, if you indicate that it does not meet the requirements, you will be deducted money, otherwise the goods will be discarded. No, it’s obviously been done this way several times before, and there’s no difference in quality. Why is the money being deducted this time? But there is no other way. In order to be able to ship goods, we can only agree to the unreasonable demands of customers.
Chargeback risk
In addition, there have been a lot of “black swans” in the market in the past two years, and they are constantly happening. It will affect customers and allow them to cancel their orders. From the initial trade friction to the later epidemic, a large number of chargebacks appeared in the market. And the recent epidemic in India has become like this, and the business there has also became precarious.
Profits are hard to guarantee
Even if the order is completed and delivered, the price of raw materials fluctuates sharply, and freight costs keep rising. The customer keeps pressing the quotation to death, but when the order is finally produced, it is very likely that instead of making any money, it becomes a loss.
And in the textile industry, there are still a small number of people who can really be bosses, and there are more people who work hard. “Beat workers.” If you are not your own boss or leader, but just run orders and follow orders, your annual income from these jobs will be considerable. If you want to rely on this income to support yourself and your family, it is already very hard, and you may not be able to save it in your lifetime. Zheng Shuang earned 2.08 million in one day.
So some people joked: A salary of 160 million seems scary, but in fact, as long as a worker with a monthly salary of 6,000 works hard, he will be able to make a living. The Qin Dynasty started to work, and after more than 2,200 years of hard work, it was possible to make money.
It seems funny, but it is very sad when you think about it carefully. But no matter what, life still has to go on. Even if you complain again, money will not fall from the sky. You still have to be down-to-earth and diligent in order to do your job well.
I hope that all textile workers can adjust their mentality in time and not let these things affect their own work. Okay, no more talking, I’m going to eat a lemon again!
