Yang Liufang held a grand celebration party in the canteen of the supply and marketing cooperative in the north of the city for the success of the Xizhou Trade Fair. President Li of the Provincial Supply and Marketing Cooperative, leaders of the Xizhou Municipal Development and Reform Commission, and leaders of the Municipal Commerce Bureau were specially invited to attend the celebration meeting and invited them Give an instructive speech. The leaders of Xizhou Aluminum Factory Industrial and Trade Company, Xizhou Plastic Factory, all staff of the supply and marketing cooperative, the management of the furniture factory, the management of the tannery factory and even the team leaders, and the management of the construction and decoration company represented by Secretary Shitou gathered together. one class. Yang Liufang was on-site to discuss their merits and reward them. Li Tongfu, on behalf of the group, awarded 10,000 yuan bonus to the six responsible persons Wang Shan, Wang Yanhua, Shi Yong, Li Wei, Wang Xinye, and Qin Jiajun who had worked hard for this event. Other people who participated in the work were also awarded separately. Bonuses ranging from five thousand to one thousand.
For all the words of encouragement, nothing motivates you more than a bonus. After the bonuses were distributed, everyone was even more motivated. The special guests opened six bottles of champagne on the makeshift podium to celebrate. Five boxes of Huangtai wine produced in the northwest province were also opened, and on the main table was this Lao Zhou, who achieved sales of more than 8 million yuan at this trade fair, sponsored a box of Maotai liquor. Originally, he gave them to Yang Liufang privately. There were two boxes in total, and they were put into Santana's trunk. It happened to be the celebration party, so he asked Zhang Feng to take them out, leave one box for the main table, and distribute one box to each other table. bottle. At the celebration banquet, everyone toasted together and met to create greater glory at the third Western Conference.
In the week since the celebration banquet, Yang Liufang has been pestering Director Wang through various connections, hoping that the relevant departments can open up to the CCTV system. However, no department dared to take the huge risk due to the inability to effectively control the broadcast of CCTV. Only the aluminum factory and the plastic factory privately purchased two sets of Panasonic CCTV equipment because of their close cooperation with Liufang Group, allowing Yang Liufang to Send workers to install living quarters in the factory as a benefit to employees. Others have not been unpacked, let alone shipped out of the warehouse, and have been occupying Simmons' warehouse. The experiential sales scene that Xizhou Supply and Marketing Cooperative has spent so much effort and money to decorate is also idle there.
Lao Chen from the Xizhou Wholesale Market has been contacting Yang Liufang after the Xizhou Trade Fair. Yang Liufang traveled far and wide for the CCTV project. In addition, since he is a representative of the National People's Congress, the city and the province have asked them to participate in research and study from time to time. , meetings, always unable to contact him due to some strange combination of circumstances, and sometimes even the core figures of the group such as Li Tongfu and Yanhua could not contact him. Typhoons were prevalent in Wenzhou in July and August, and half of the house in Yangliu Fang's ancestral home was built and construction stopped. His parents couldn't get in touch with him, so they had to communicate with Li Tongfu about everything.
But Lao Chen was anxious, seeing Lao Zhou making a fortune and getting bigger day by day. After the Western Conference, he handed over his son to take care of the stall in the wholesale market. He also bought a black Santana car like Yang Liufang's to travel between the supply and marketing cooperative in the north of the city and the wholesale market. The fellow Wenzhou fellows who once walked the streets and alleys with him and set up stalls were so greedy that they had no choice but to go to Lao Chen Mo like a wheel-and-wheel battle. Lao Chen had no choice but to go to Li Tongfu's office in the tannery factory to wait. He thought that Yang Liufang would care about the production of his factory even if he was busy, especially Li Tongfu's office. In addition to furniture products, the group company currently has car seats and rearview mirrors. , bumpers, leather jackets, big-toe shoes, etc. are all produced and shipped in the tannery. He will definitely call back, and Li Tongfu will also call him.
He had approached Li Tongfu. Li Tongfu and even Yanhua were willing to let him help rent the current CCTV experience center to external parties. However, the final decision of the group was made by Yang Liufang, and he had to agree. Lao Chen ate well and slept well at Li Tongfu's place. He watched Li Tongfu busy every day, making phone calls and drinking Pang Dahai. Various contracts and reimbursement documents that needed to be signed were sent to him in piles by Xinye. . Finally, when he was about to get off work in the afternoon after waiting for three days, Yang Liufang called and said that he and Wang Tai were at Wolongshan Hotel. Li Tongfu called Xinye to report on the important matters of each company in the past few days. If he agreed, he would take out Yang Liufang's private seal and ask Xinye to stamp it and sign on his behalf. If he didn't agree, he would go back to the person in charge to discuss a solution. After beating for more than an hour, the work was over. Li Tongfu drank water and told Yang Liufang that Brother Chen was waiting for him and had been waiting for three days.
"Oh, Brother Chen, I'm so sorry, look at how busy I am. Tell me what's going on."
"A Fang, at the Western Business Meeting, you said you wanted to set up a shop for me in the supply and marketing cooperative. Why don't I come to see you now! I know you are busy. Ah Fu and Yan Hua said that they need your consent. And before, Those fellow villagers who gave us a meeting also want to live in the supply and marketing cooperative, what do you think we should do?"
"Well..." The phone was on speakerphone, and Yang Liufang could be heard letting out a long sigh of relief. Knowing that he was thinking, Lao Chen, Li Tongfu, and Xin Ye didn't speak.
"That's it, brother."
"Yeah, I'm listening."
"Brother Chen just said that this can be done, but it must be rented in an orderly manner. You, Yanhua and Wang Shan discuss the rental price together. Brother Chen is kind to us. He can rent a 100-square-meter shop at 40% off your price. , and then he gets to know the tenants well, and on the premise of ensuring the interests of the group, let him participate in leasing and business planning. By the way, let Xinye pay a salary to Brother Chen, and assist Yanhua in the management of merchants in the future."
"Oh, Ah Fang, I didn't help you in vain. I knew you were a person who repays kindness at the first glance. I will work hard under Yanhua's leadership and not embarrass you."
"You're welcome, Brother Chen. You will have to worry about merchant management from now on."
"Brother, Xinye, do you have anything else going on over there?"
"Mr. Yang, is Zhang Feng with you?"
"Well, something happened? I'll ask him to call you later."
As he heard a knock on the other end of the phone, Yang Liufang hung up the phone. Lao Chen excitedly insisted on dragging the two of them to invite them to dinner, and refused to listen to any advice. The two of them couldn't resist, so they had to fulfill his wish and ordered a table of dishes in a private room in the cafeteria. Lao Chen paid directly.
"Brother Chen, when you rent the store, you will have an employee card of the group company. Then you will be subsidized for meals. You can sign and the excess will be deducted from your salary at the end of the month."
"Oh, that's so happy. It's not like communism. No wonder my eldest son had to resign and come to work in our group."
"Your eldest son? What does he do?"
"After he graduated from Xizhou Polytechnic University, he was assigned to a state-owned electronics factory affiliated with the Military Industry Research Institute. Everything he did was kept secret. He spent three days fishing and two days drying nets, and we didn't dare to ask anything about him. I saw Lao Chen's son recently. After taking over their wholesale market store, he also had to resign. I scolded him, but that was an iron rice bowl."
"What happened to the iron rice bowl? Look at Xinye, Li Wei from our technical department, and Yanhua from the finance department. They all graduated from college. They were all iron rice bowls in the past. Now they are the largest leaders in their original units who have worked for more than ten years. , The house they live in is not as big as theirs, and their wages are not as high as theirs. Time is life, efficiency is money, who cares whether there is a solid job or not, as long as you make money to buy a golden job." Li Tongfu said after drinking a glass of wine.
Because there was a meeting to set the price the next day, Boss Chen did not leave the tannery and stayed in his guest room that night. After dawn, Yanhua finished handling the affairs of the supply and marketing cooperative and came over with Wang Shan for a meeting. Everyone agreed that only electrical products could be sold here, and the price was agreed upon. Li Tongfu also put forward an additional condition: if the shop needs decoration, it can only be done by the group's construction and decoration company. In order to facilitate management, several people decided that each shop would be 100 square meters. According to Lao Chen's experience of renting stalls in wholesale markets, the prices for each location are different. Lao Chen rented the 300 square meters in the middle of the building near the water on a first-come-first-served basis. According to Yang Liufang's requirements, 100 square meters were at a 40% discount, and the other 200 square meters were at market prices. He followed his son's suggestion and used this shop to sell color TVs, Refrigerator and washing machine.
After the leasing was confirmed, Wang Shan told Yinhua about the sales situation of a supply and marketing cooperative. Yanhua already knew about it and couldn't contact Mr. Yang, so he just reported it to Li Tongfu to see how to deal with it. It turns out that during the sales process, Yinhua found that many people came to inquire about video recorders and VCD players. If they were sold separately, the entire CCTV system would be dismantled, and these devices were adapted as required when purchased. If Mr. Yang gets through the relationship, it will be too late to replenish the goods now.
"I don't think we need to wait for Mr. Yang on this matter. Since someone comes to buy, we are selling goods, so we will sell them. Mr. Wang, you can ask the people below to count and see how many video recorders and VCDs are available for sale. First, We’ll have to recover the cost later. After all, it’s only two to three million.”
"Okay, I'll do the statistics in the afternoon."
"By the way, if the sales are good, I think we can set up a stall for ourselves to sell VCD players and video recorders. Then, Mr. Chen, other merchants can't sell them, or they can get goods from us. But the sales price in the market must be unified. .”
"Understood, I will strictly implement the meeting decision." It was the first time for Lao Chen to participate in this kind of meeting of the group company. He didn't know how to express it, so he learned and used all the lines he learned in the decisive battle. Everyone ended the meeting in a cheerful atmosphere.
There are a total of 15 shops in the market. When Lao Chen brought the good news back, everyone was happy, but there were too many monks and too few meat. Even if only those who had participated in the festival and helped Yang Liufang were selected, it would not be enough. Unfortunately, Lao Chen could only draw lots. Lao Zhou wanted a piece of the pie after getting the news, but as a vested interest, he also had to participate in the draw. In order to wait for the sales information of VCDs and video recorders, Lao Chen deliberately postponed the draw of lots by two days. week.
In two weeks, the supply and marketing cooperative sold more than 30 video recorders and VCD machines, and the sales volume is increasing day by day. After reporting to Yang Liufang, Yang Liufang left 200 square meters for his own use and renamed the hall "Household Appliances World". While maintaining the existing style, each store was allowed to design its own design, and the group's construction and decoration company was responsible for the decoration. When the news came back, there were only 13 shops left. All the merchants who had been waiting for two weeks to prepare to rent the shops stopped working. No one was willing to quit. I wonder whoever proposed the auction, and the highest bidder would win. So after consulting the group company for instructions, a huge gamble on shops was staged in Xizhou Wholesale Market.
