Chapter 348 Shu Wen Arrives
A week later.
At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, a number of cars were parked on the side of Binjiang Highway.
Next to the car, a group of well-dressed people who looked like leaders were waiting anxiously under the scorching sun.
"Here they come." A man looked into the distance and suddenly shouted.
On the road, a convoy consisting of two cars and a bus was driving towards them quickly.
Seeing the convoy in the distance, these people finally perked up a little.
Upon seeing the convoy in the distance, a leader said solemnly, "This time, we must fully learn from the lessons of our last failure. We must not be too hasty, and certainly not put on airs. We must truly take the four words 'attracting foreign investment' to heart."
"The Shu Group is a major company in Hong Kong and plays a vital role in the grain trade in Southeast Asia. If we can bring them in, it will have a very positive impact on the agricultural development of our province!"
"Don't scare people away again."
Hearing this, many leaders present had awkward smiles on their faces.
The person who spoke was the director of Binjiang Foreign Economic and Technical Liaison Office, named Chen Qiang.
In this era, there was no specific concept of attracting investment.
In order to promote economic development and attract foreign investment, the state has set up a Foreign Economic and Technical Liaison Office in the Special Administrative Region, referred to as the "Negotiation Office", which is specifically responsible for negotiating with foreign and Hong Kong businessmen. The purpose is naturally to attract foreign investment.
Due to its good results, it was promoted to several major cities in the country.
Chen Qiang, the director of the "Negotiation Office", has only been in office for a few months and is mainly responsible for attracting foreign investment to Binjiang.
At the beginning of the reform, everything was done by feeling our way forward.
But Chen Qiang, the director of the "Negotiation Office", really had no idea where to start. They had to rely on self-study and independent exploration to make progress.
Carrying out the work is not something that can be described as difficult at all.
Binjiang is thousands of miles away from the Hong Kong River.
Last time, we finally had a group of Hong Kong businessmen come to inspect the city, but before we could even get down to business, they suddenly left.
This made people like Chen Qiang very regretful.
They had lost all hope, but unexpectedly, the people from Shu Group came back and gave them another chance.
"Director, the car has stopped."
Just as the leader was speaking.
The convoy in the distance has slowly stopped by the roadside.
"Let's go and greet them." Chen Qiang saw the convoy stopped not far from them and hurriedly called out to everyone.
The car door opens.
Shu Wen stepped off the bus. Dressed in a professional suit, she exuded the word "capable" from head to toe.
"Ms. Shu, we meet again."
"Last time, we failed to provide adequate hospitality. This time, we have made sufficient preparations. We hope that both sides can achieve a satisfactory result."
Chen Qiang stepped forward and said with a smile.
"Hello, Director Chen. I left without saying goodbye last time because of a reason. I hope you won't take offense."
The last time I came here, the inspection team was mainly composed of Song Yaozu. Shu Wen had just returned from abroad and was more of an observer.
Until she blocked Song Yaozu and his secretary taking a bath together, she left without telling anyone.
"how come."
"Miss Shu, you must have traveled all the way here. We have already arranged a hotel for you and will take you there first. We have prepared a dinner tonight to welcome you all."
In order to regain this lost opportunity, Chen Qiang spent a lot of money. He mobilized the limited funds of the negotiation office to arrange the best Madiel Hotel in Binjiang for Shu Wen and others, and also specially prepared a dinner party.
"Thank you, Director Chen."
"Then let's go now."
Shu Wen returned to the bus.
Chen Qiang and his team's car led the way, and the bus followed behind. A long convoy of cars drove quickly towards the city.
Shu Wen looked at the scenery outside through the car window.
In my mind, I kept thinking about a figure.
......
In the sales station.
Lu Ye stood in the exhibition hall, next to Zhao Xiaolong, Su Yunjie and Su Mengyao.
The exhibition hall, which has been rearranged, is now filled with shelves. On one side is the daily chemical area, which displays soaps, crystal soaps, and a lot of smelly soaps that don't smell very good.
On the other side is the electrical appliance exhibition area, with two large rows of refrigerators in different colors and styles, which include all the models currently on sale by the Nusi Refrigerator Factory.
There is also a separate feed area, which also provides a comprehensive range of feed for pigs, poultry and fish.
In the exhibition area, several customers were shopping for refrigerators.
"We still have too few products. No matter how we arrange them, it still looks empty and a bit messy. This won't work."
"Yunjie, next I plan to separate the retail business in the showroom from the sales department. The sales department must focus on expanding supply sources. We can't just rely on selling refrigerators to make a few bucks."
The commission for selling a refrigerator is about ten yuan, and the salesmen are now concentrating on queuing up at the door of the sales station waiting for customers.
I have no intention of going out to factories to develop sources of supply.
This is not what Lu Ye wants to see.
"Go independent? How can we become independent? There are only so many people in the sales department, and the new hires have little experience. If you remove the old ones, there will be no one left to run the sales."
Su Yunjie said with a bitter face when he heard this.
"Besides, if you suddenly stop the sales department from working in retail, everyone will be dissatisfied."
Ever since he became the manager of the sales department and the sales department was divided into groups, the originally peaceful atmosphere was completely broken.
People from both groups were competing secretly, and Gu Shun and Zhou Yan were refusing to give in to each other.
There were several times when arguments almost broke out between the two sides because of the order of queuing at the door.
Lu Ye now wants to deduct the retail portion from the sales department, which is almost equivalent to cutting off everyone's source of income. Su Yunjie is a little worried.
"Don't move anyone in the sales department. Set up a separate store retail department with you as the manager. Recruit a new group of people to focus solely on retail."
"As for the commission, according to the original design, the person who finds the source of goods will get 30% of the profit, and the retailer will get 10%. Except for special products, which are negotiated individually, the rest will be distributed according to this ratio."
"If anyone wants to make money, they can go out and find the source of goods themselves. Just like Gu Shun found the soap, he can put it there and let others sell it for him. He can just sit back and collect the money later. What's wrong with that?"
"If someone doesn't want to work, then let them go. We don't want to keep idle people in the sales station."
Lu Ye's words were a bit harsh.
There was a non-negotiable attitude in his tone.
After listening to this, Su Yunjie felt that Lu Ye was right to do so, but he still felt that this approach was a bit cruel to those veteran salespeople.
Su Mengyao looked at Lu Ye with her beautiful eyes.
In the past, Lu Ye also told her that one should not keep idle people.
"This guy!" Su Mengyao secretly complained to herself.
"Mr. Lu, there's a phone call for you." Outside the exhibition area, a salesperson walked in quickly and whispered to Lu Ye.
