The store now had all the high-quality imitation porcelain and paintings and calligraphy needed for display, and Wen Xinya had finally obtained the GMP certification she had applied for from the Food and Drug Administration. Wen Xinya generously invited Li Mengjie, Qiu Yifan, Yan Shaoqing, Ouyang Feng and others to have dinner at Jiuchongtian to celebrate.
Qiu Yifan smiled and said, "Xinya, you are really lucky. The requirements of the GMP certification standards have been raised a lot since this year. I originally thought that if you wanted to apply for this kind of certification, you would not be able to get it without three to five years of product production quality inspection. I didn't expect that you actually got it. Congratulations!"
"Thank you!" Wen Xinya was also very surprised. She had applied for the GMP certification for a month but there was no news. She thought she would not get it, but she didn't expect that she actually got it.
Li Mengjie leaned back on the sofa with a glass of red wine in hand, exuding a sense of laziness from head to toe: "The decoration of the store is almost finished. The master said that it will be completely finished in another week. The layout of the store is already in place. When do we plan to open it?"
Wen Xinya gently turned the red wine glass in her hand. The liquid in the glass looked particularly deep and charming under the dim light. "How is the situation at the factory?"
Yan Shaoqing smiled and said, "The decoration of the factory was completed half a month ago. We have already carried out the first trial production and debugging of the equipment. We have set up a professional quality standardization department. Although the products produced in the first trial production have some shortcomings, they are already quite good. It is estimated that the debugging part will be completed in the third trial production at most, and we can officially put it into mass production."
"What about the packaging?" Wen Xinya was very satisfied with this. The progress of the factory decoration was much faster than she had imagined. She always trusted Yan Shaoqing to do things. Besides, they produced Chinese herbal skin care products, and the most important thing was the Chinese medicine pharmacist. The process on the production line was not complicated. As long as the equipment was perfectly debugged and the personnel operated in a standardized manner, it could be said that there would be no problems at all.
Yan Shaoqing said, "I have found a manufacturer of pure natural artificial wood that focuses on environmental protection. I have done compatibility tests on packaging materials and products. The data is quite impressive, but it has not yet met our requirements. I am currently communicating with the factory and I estimate that there will be results in the next few days. I will compile a document and send it to you when I go back."
"Okay! Thank you for your hard work during this period!" Wen Xinya knew that Yan Shaoqing had been very busy recently in order to get the factory back on track as soon as possible. He used to send her a work progress report almost every three days, but he hasn't done it for a week recently.
Yan Shaoqing shook his head and said, "Lanxin Cosmetics Company has been recruiting people one after another, so I am not as busy as before."
Wen Xinya asked again: "By the way, how is the management recruitment at the factory going?"
She felt relieved to leave the recruitment to Yan Shaoqing. Although Yan Shaoqing was ugly in appearance and used to human nature, he still maintained a positive and fearless heart. More importantly, he was not corrupted by the dark side of the world. He was gentle, generous, tolerant and patient. He understood the unspoken rules of survival in this world, so he was not blindly kind and calculated everything. Such a person was destined to be more perceptive than anyone else in his understanding of human nature.
Yan Shaoqing explained: "The recruitment of hierarchical management is almost complete. Now we only need a factory manager to oversee factory production. I will temporarily take over this position, but..."
Wen Xinya saw that he was hesitant to speak, so she asked, "Do you have a suitable candidate?"
Yan Shaoqing hesitated for a moment and said, "There is such a person. He and my father used to be friends. After my father passed away, he always took good care of me. He used to be a factory manager, but he had a car accident a few years ago and his legs were not good for walking, so he was fired by the factory. He has not been able to find a better job until now, and makes a living by repairing and polishing shoes on the street."
Wen Xinya immediately understood Yan Shaoqing's concerns. He was shy and he felt embarrassed to recommend someone close to him. She couldn't help but laugh and said, "It's not about relatives. You have a close relationship with him, so you naturally know his character. Find a time to bring him to see me."
Yan Shaoqing breathed a sigh of relief, feeling his palms full of sweat: "Okay!"
Wen Xinya smiled and said, "It seems that we are ready for everything except the east wind. In this case, our store will open on January 22nd. What do you think?"
Li Mengjie immediately took out her phone and said, "They say that you have to choose an auspicious day to open a store. How can you just say that? Let me check the almanac online to see if that day is suitable for opening a store!"
Qiu Yifan was quicker than her, and brought the almanac to her, saying with a smile, "That day is auspicious, suitable for opening a business, getting married, praying, seeking children, traveling, and feasting! It is definitely a rare auspicious day."
Ouyang Feng smiled and said, "It seems that Xinya is well prepared!"
Wen Xinya smiled and handed a plan to Li Mengjie: "These are some of my small ideas about store management. Do you think they are feasible?"
Li Mengjie flipped through it gently.
Wen Xinya said slowly, "In traditional Chinese medicine, health preservation and beauty care are inseparable. I have listed dozens of health-preserving soups with different effects. When combined with related products, they can achieve unexpected results. The health-preserving soup shop only supplies five servings of each soup every day, on a first-come, first-served basis. Reservations are not accepted. In addition, our health-preserving soups are not allowed to be delivered or taken out."
Traditional Chinese medicine skin care is only a touchstone for her in the field of traditional Chinese medicine health care. Her ultimate focus is on the huge fat piece of health care products. The introduction of health-preserving soup in her store is actually paving the way for her health care products.
Yan Shaoqing's eyelids twitched, and when he looked at the types of health-preserving soups listed on the list, he vaguely sensed something was wrong.
Qiu Yifan's gaze towards Wen Yaya became solemn. It seemed that Wen Yaya's ambition was much more than just a high-end luxury cosmetics store. She had other intentions.
Wen Xinya smiled faintly and said, "Sister Li, regarding matters related to the health-preserving soup, you must pay close attention to and record the data of the guests' physical reactions to the health-preserving soup. You cannot be careless, because Lanxin Cosmetics is just my first step."
"Okay! I'll pay attention!" Even if Li Mengjie was slow-witted, she understood that Wen Xinya had other plans in mind. She suddenly remembered that when she went to the Industrial and Commercial Administration to register the company, Wen Xinya explained the company's business scope, which seemed to include health products.
Several people looked at Wen Xinya deeply, with meaningful expressions in their eyes.
Although health care products are a huge piece of fat meat, it is impossible to occupy the market without sufficient preparation and reputation. She launched luxury cosmetics first, mainly because Chinese herbal skin care is well-known and easier to be accepted by people. Once a sales group is formed, Lanxin Company is known by everyone, and Du Ruo's words are recognized, health care products will be able to occupy a part of the market as soon as they are launched in the future.
How many people can possess such a mind
