The Past And Present Of "Kou Kou Dress"

Mention Kou Kou The first thing people think of is Jiangbei's largest professional clothing market. When did Kou Kou begin to be associated with "clothes"? Many people began to calculate from the wholesale market in the 60s and 70s of last century. In fact, reporters yesterday through many interviews, for you traced the source of a hundred years of clothing memory, analysis of a future. Clothes & Accessories The past and present of capital.

　　 Textile industry 100 years ago Originating It's the "gene" of the previous garment industry.

As a former commercial port city, during the late Qing Dynasty and the Republic of China, there was already the beginning of modern industry in which the textile industry was one of the most representative industries.

According to information, textile industry It has a history of over 100 years in Tianqiao District. In 1915, Shandong patrol made Cai Rukai and warlord Jin Yunpeng collect 1 million 200 thousand yuan of financial resources from 107 counties in the whole province, and launched the "Lufeng cotton mill" at Linjia bridge, and opened in 1919.

At that time, Zhang Zuolin and Duan Qirui held the shares of the warlord and later became the largest cotton mill in the country. With the gradual development of the cotton mill, the textile industry also became the pillar industry of Ji'nan at that time, and laid the industrial foundation for the development of the garment industry which was then the branch of the textile industry.

　　 Before and after liberation, there was already a clothing store.

Cheng Dian Qi, a 74 year old man who has lived in the community of Xiang Mo Li for a lifetime, told reporters that the clothing industry in the area of Kou Kou, especially the town of Kou Kou, has developed to this stage, and it has its contingency, but it is also inevitable. "Now the Xiaoqing River scenery is beautiful, but in the 40 and 50s of last century, due to lack of governance, the river often poured back, and the surrounding terrain was relatively low. Whenever it rains, we all have to sail across the river. So this area has been mainly commerce and transportation industry since ancient times, and also often transport cloth, so it is not surprising to develop the clothing industry."

According to the old man's recollection, the most prosperous place at that time was the wharf wharf, and the boat came to the boat. "At that time, a main cargo of the port transport was the textile of the lower reaches of the Qinghe River, and those textiles were often transported to the town. At that time, there were many shops, mainly concentrated in the vicinity of the Second Ring Road, including a large number of clothing shops, but scattered."

　　 After the reform and opening up, the market of Kou Kou garment was formally established.

Li Jumin, a native born shark shark, told reporters that in the late 80s of last century, Li Mo village had prepared a project jointly organized with the foreign units. The location of the city was now ready, and the result was erroneously bad, and the project fell somewhere else.

Perhaps it should be grateful for such a start. The Licun people should not feel that the land is idle. It is also located at the market of Huang Tun market near Chengfeng bridge. At that time, there was no place for the southern households to go. Licun was attracted by them and settled here, which made Shandong's largest professional market, Kou Kou clothing city. "At the beginning, it was the iron bar counter, which hung samples on shelves, and there was stock in the counter. It's very cold in winter and very hot in summer. " Liu Xiuzhen recalled that from 1989 to the beginning of 90s, the wholesale environment and conditions of clothing were very hard.

along with Word of mouth As a result, the reputation of the Ji'nan garment city is increasing, and more and more citizens are going to wholesale clothing. Some local laid-off workers are also starting to try out wholesale clothing business. After the market was transferred to the interior of the market, at the beginning of the "shop behind the factory", the house was not enough to rent the houses of the ordinary people. Later, the houses in Licun were also built up higher and higher. They built three storeys, sold upstairs, sold clothes downstairs, and developed to the present. This place has finally become the largest professional clothing market in Jiangbei.

　　 The reputation of the clothing city is getting louder. The town center is moving 1.5 kilometers south.

When it comes to the mouth area, a lot of citizens will think of the "Kou Kou clothing city" and think it is the "Kou Kou" area. In fact, the real location of Kou Kou Town in the history is about 1.5 kilometers north of the city of Kou Kou clothing. It used to be a prosperous town for a while. However, with the transformation of the old village in the town of Kou Kou and the establishment of the Kou Kou Garment City, the central area of the area was moved south as a whole.

According to Cheng Dianqi, a 74 year old inhabitant of the fragrant mill community, recalled that before the liberation of Ji'nan, the town of Kou Kou can be said to be the throat of Ji'nan's commercial traffic, or the gateway of northern Ji'nan. Its appearance and a small city generally, the three sides of the East and West, all built walls, the town's population of about 15000 people, mainly rely on commerce and transportation industry, the town thriving for a while.

Starting from the 80s of last century, the Kou Kou wharf began to decline gradually, and the town of Kou Kou was gradually transformed into the old village. Now the Kou Kou community has moved to the south for about 1.5 kilometers, almost linking it with the fragrant mill community, and with the increasing popularity of the town of "Kou Kou", the name of "Kou Kou" has moved southward.
