The Rebirth of a Genius
Chapter 39 – Arrogant Worker
Over the past three days, the fans sold really well. Every day, there are at least 100 units sold and the number is still increasing. On the streets, many people talk about fans. Conversations are mostly about a person's son or daughter buying an electric fan for the family, etc. It's like a big color TV in the past.
Manager Su had already called and booked 200 more fans. Department stores close early and many people do not have time to go there because of their work. However, cooperatives are different. They're closing at eight. Those who have to work will go to the cooperative after they finish work. As such, the sales of the fans were the highest in the cooperative.
A few days ago, Manager Su still regretted bringing in the fans and using 10,000 RMB for the deposit. Although this way of inserting items seems to be safer than buying items and there is no risk, but there are still 10,000 RMB locked as a deposit.
Now, Manager Su did not think so. Only a few days had passed and this was still not the hottest time of the year. So far, sales of electric fans have been good and will be better in a few days. Since there is no risk and the fans sell well, why not bring more stuff?
In addition to cooperatives, department stores also began ordering more fans. Not yet the weekend. They may run out of stock on the weekend. Now, the only fans sold in the store are Wind and Rain fans. Fans of other brands are not sold at all. Almost everyone talks about Wind and Rain fans.
Manufactured by Motor factory, cheap, fashionable, light, comfortable and safe. The first department stores even hung large banners outside their stores to promote these fans.
Once again, Feng Yu gathered all his staff in the warehouse. First, to celebrate the success of the Wind and Rain fans. Everyone has been working hard these few days. Feng Yu gave a special bonus of 20 RMB to each of his staff to reward them. Second, Feng Yu wanted to train them on how to handle customers.
"Xiao Yu, if we treat customers with this kind of attitude, will they still buy our fans?" Li Shiqiang frowned. This Feng Yu is absurd!
Everyone was happy to receive the bonus, but they could not accept Feng Yu's way of treating customers. That's not acceptable to everyone. Feng Yu had told them that when a customer came, they did not need to laugh at his jokes, there was no need to serve tea or offer cigarettes. They should act impatient and not care whether the customer buys or not!
Wind and Rain fans are only popular in Bing City. Feng Yu did not have the time or energy to develop a distribution channel outside of Bing City. However, Feng Yu knew that there would be some clever businessmen coming to him. The imaging of Wind and Rain fans was too powerful in Bing City!
Now, there is strong demand and a shortage of supply for Wind and Rain fans in the market. There must be many entrepreneurs who want to buy fans at wholesale prices. Feng Yu was not worried that his fans were not selling well.
Feng Yu also took precautionary measures against the Motor Factory. He asked Wu Zhigang to tell Director Zhao that there were rumors that some people wanted compensation from the factory to produce a lower product.
Director Zhao immediately reported the matter to Director Li. Director Li later issued a public statement that the factory had nothing to do with Wind and Rain fans. The factory only rented out their warehouse to the Tai Hua trading company.
Some entrepreneurs go to the Motor Factory, because they want to get the goods directly from the source but they are all rejected by the motor factory because the Motor Factory really "does not produce Wind and Rain fans!" Some people insist that it is a Motor Factory that is manufactured, the fans are dumped by the manufacturer's securities.
This entrepreneur had no choice but to go to the Tai Hua Trading Company.
As soon as the businessmen entered the Tai Hua Trading Firms warehouse, they frowned. It was not because of the location of the warehouse. These entrepreneurs are from the south and have even visited companies located in small villages. They frowned because of the amount of stock in the warehouse. There were only a few hundred fans in the warehouse. Does that mean Tai Hua trading also has limited stock?
"Excuse me . Is this Tai Hua trading company? Are Wind and Rain fans of your company? ”Zhang Ruikun, a businessman from Shen City asked politely.
"You who? Wind and Rain fans are from our company. What does this have to do with you? "Wu Zhigang said.
Zhang Ruikun was surprised. What's wrong with this guy? However, Zhang Ruikun tolerated Wu Zhigang's attitude because he still wanted to make money.
“This is my business card. I am the general manager of Jinyuan Trading Company and would like to speak with your manager. "Said Zhang Ruikun.
“Not free! Our boss is busy. Can't you see I'm busy too? Go . '' Wu Zhigang said harshly.
Zhang Ruikun put on a smiling face and at the same time, took out a pack of Double Happiness cigarettes and gave one stick to Wu Zhigang: “Brother, buy a cigarette. ”
"Geez! How can you smoke in the barn. '' Wu Zhigang scolded.
Zhang Ruikun stopped and quickly handed the entire pack of cigarettes over to Wu Zhigang: "Brother, don't be angry. It's all my fault. You save this pack of cigarettes and smoke later. I'm here to talk to your boss about Wind and Rain fans. I want to buy back. ”
Wu Zhigang kept a cigarette in his pocket and then looked at Zhang Ruikun: "You want to buy our fans? Why didn't you say it before? ”
Zhang Ruikun wanted to cry. He thought: "I want to say but did you give me a chance to say?" Zhang Ruikun could only smile and nod: "Yes, yes, yes. It's all my fault. I forgot to tell you. ”
Wu Zhigang had an expression "of course it's your fault" and asked slowly: "Then how many units do you want to send?"
"Consignment?" Zhang Ruikun hesitated. “What shipment? I want to buy a lot of fans and sell them at Shen City. ”
"Bought? We don't sell these fans. We just make delivery! We don't have many fans left to sell ourselves. '' Wu Zhigang said and waved his hand. He then turned to run his own business.
Zhang Ruikun pulled Wu Zhigang: "Sister, brother. I know you hold senior positions in the company. Please sell some for me. A thousand units will do it. I'll give you 1 RMB per unit. ”
Wu Zhigang brushed off Zhang Ruikun's hand and pointed to the warehouse door: "You want to bribe me? Out!"
“My brother, if you think 1 RMB is too little, we can discuss how much. "Zhang Ruikun begged.
“My brother, if you think 1 RMB is too little, we can discuss how much. "Zhang Ruikun begged.
"Get out!" Shouted Wu Zhigang.
"Sorry sorry . It's all my fault. In fact, I myself, also hate bribery but everyone in the south does this. Brother, can you talk to your boss to sell me some fans? We can discuss the price. I am willing to pay 35 RMB for one unit. "Said Zhang Ruikun.
Zhang Ruikun had calculated. The cost for one electric fan is about 30 RMB. The cost will be even lower if it is produced on a large scale (economic scale). The price he offered would allow the Tai Hua Trading company to earn a profit of 5 RMB per unit. That means a total profit of 5,000 RMB for 1,000 units!
Of course, once after he sent the fans back to Shen City, he would sell one unit for 50 or 60 RMB. He could still make a profit of 10 RMB.
“35 RMB? Not enough to cover the cost! The cost for smaller models is around 40 RMB and larger ones around 50 RMB. Since you are so sincere, I will give you some news. If you really want to buy, come again at 10 tomorrow morning. Fine . Enough chatting for today. I still have a lot of things to do. Bye bye! ”Say Wu Zhigang.
Zhang Ruiqiang is gone. He had to raise money from friends. He should get fans tomorrow when he meets the boss. He can say that these fans will be selling well at Shen City, just like Bing City.
The same thing happened to more than 10 people. Each of them gets the same treatment and message. All of them would come at 10am the next morning, to talk to the boss in person.
Feng Yu, on the other hand, was currently in the office of Motor Factory Director Li.
