Chapter 130: Samsung

The curtains were opened early the next morning.

Outside the window, it was cloudy, and the tall buildings in the distance were blurred in the rain.

Chen Linzhi went out after washing, and the translator Genichiro Inoyama was waiting for him in the corridor, holding an MBA self-study textbook in his hand, most likely wanting to continue his studies.

You can't make a lot of money as a translator.

There are too many young people who can speak English, and they will starve to death if they really take this profession as their own job, and it is almost the same to earn some pocket money part-time.

"Do you want to take a master's degree?" asked Chen Linzhi casually.

Kenichiro Inoyama told him, "Yes, the goal is the University of Chicago Booth School of Business, but I'm not sure at all, I want to be a successful businessman like you." ”

"You can't talk about success, it's just a matter of making ends meet. Where's Roger, you haven't gotten up yet?"

After asking, Chen Linzhi was not surprised at all when he saw Inoyama Genichiro nodding.

The business director I personally found has a really good ability, and after training the employees, the effect is immediate, and new orders have been received one after another, mainly in the garment manufacturing industry.

But Roger's life style of the little green dragon in this wave is really problematic, not to mention one-stop service, I found "two" last night.

It's a pity that Chen Linzhi couldn't catch him, Roger didn't delay the business, and he was dragged into the water again, so he didn't have the cheekiness to accuse the other party of anything.

Simply ignore it, go downstairs to find a place to eat first.

The thunder was clearly audible through the glass, and the rain was pouring outside.

Breakfast is rice, plus a piece of tofu, a small plate of salted vegetables, a few slices of fruit, a pinch of shredded lettuce, served with a boiled egg, and hot milk.

Leaving aside the taste, such a breakfast is nutritionally balanced.

Chen Linzhi still remembers that there was a news story that said that he had a long average life expectancy, and the secret was hidden in the exquisite and coordinated three meals a day, which made him curious about why the locals were still generally short when they were rich in nutrition.

He is more than 8 meters tall, and he is of average height in the United States, and when he came to Yueben, he found that he stood out from the crowd, and men were more than 1.6 meters tall, and small short legs were the norm.

Chen Linzhi once got angry because some compatriots were not stiff enough, and during the meal, he saw a few old men who were called Ben, nodded at a white man, and his mentality suddenly became more balanced. Many people in China are just envious of the superior material living conditions of others, but this side is really kneeling directly, which is completely different things.

Genichiro Inoyama, who grew up in San Francisco, saw the same disdain.

It is precisely because of their backward behavior that a large number of Japanese Americans living in California cannot raise their heads, and it is clear that the economy has developed, but they have not achieved the international status they deserve.

If you have been to many places and come into contact with many people, you will find that the customs and customs of each place are very different, and the way you look at things is also different.

Chen Linzhi was just listening.

Through the remarks of Genichiro Inoyama, he can clearly find that his confidence is that with the growing development of the economy, the per capita GDP is about to surpass that of the United States, and the GDP of Tokyo alone is more than that of the entire Chinese mainland.

Chen Linzhi has personally experienced similar self-confidence, after the development of the motherland in the 21st century.

Heavy rain poured down, delaying the calculation of finding a supplier.

Roger never woke up and felt that there was no need to call him, so Chen Linzhi entrusted the hotel to find a taxi, and went out with Genichiro Inoyama to the largest electrical appliance mall nearby.

The driver, who has been driving in Tokyo for more than 20 years and is still working in his fifties, listened to Kenichiro Inoyama's help in translating, and decisively recommended a certain shopping mall in Shinagawa Ward and set off directly to go there.

After communicating with Chen Linzhi about the types of goods he needed, Genichiro Inoyama helped to ask the driver what microwave ovens, ovens, desk lamps and other household appliance brands were of high quality and low price, and the reply he got was nothing more than Sony Panasonic and the like, these brands did not need Chen Linzhi's help to purchase as an agent, and they had been dumped into the American market.

-------------------------------------

When I came to the electrical appliance mall, there were few pedestrians on the roadside.

Genichiro Inoyama got out of the car to hold an umbrella, which made Chen Linzhi quite satisfied, thinking that when the trip was over, he should tip a little more.

It is said that it is an electrical appliance mall, but in fact, there are stores such as building materials and furniture decoration companies.

The first floor is divided into multiple areas, Sharp's TV, Panasonic's refrigerator air conditioner, Sony's Walkman, and handwritten promotional slogans can be seen everywhere, often mixed with some Chinese characters.

Today, there are few customers, and there are always enthusiastic salesmen wherever they go.

Chen Linzhi only found out after asking that he originally meant to be welcome.

As the most successful "salesman" of San Francisco United Trading Company, Chen Linzhi is no stranger to market research.

He came to an area dedicated to the sale of kitchen appliances, asked Kenichiro Inoyama to translate, and smiled and asked which products had the highest sales and the best quality.

When it comes to cost performance, the female saleswoman with a short head and a slightly round face did not hesitate to lead them to the next area to see the product brand, but it was not South Korea's Samsung.

It is said that the home appliance market has begun to transform into a mid-to-high-end market, and while selling to the European and American markets, the domestic home appliance market is being conquered by Korean electrical appliance manufacturers with lower costs and more obvious price advantages.

After comparing the retail price, Samsung's color TV, refrigerator, microwave oven, oven, washing machine, air conditioner and other goods are generally cheaper, according to the female clerk, this company used to be an OEM for Sanyo Electric, and the sales volume has been extremely hot recently, and the after-sales service is also very good.

"It seems that I am in the wrong place, and I should go to South Korea first. The buyer's requirement is that the quality is good, the price is not too high, and Samsung's products just meet my needs. ”

Chen Linzhi almost forgot the existence of Samsung.

He attaches more importance to this home appliance order.

Wal-Mart has just tried to get involved in the home appliance sales market, which is similar to preparing to expand the grocery area, as long as he does this business well, there will be opportunities to further deepen cooperation in the future.

Kenichiro Inoyama thought that Chen Linzhi was going to South Korea, and said in a panic: "I didn't have a visa to go to South Korea, and I don't know Korean." ”

"It doesn't matter, if there is no more suitable home appliance brand, then I will find a phone to contact Samsung and ask them to send someone to come and talk to me in person. ”

Chen Linzhi didn't know anything about the door in the field of foreign trade of household appliances, and was beginning to think about going to the human resources market, temporarily looking for a knowledgeable insider to learn from experience, and it was a big deal to spend more consulting fees.

There are all kinds of home appliance brands on the market, and there are only a few that can be used.

After nearly an hour of wandering, he finally planned to try to contact Samsung first, but the female clerk in the retail store was only responsible for selling things, and it was unclear whether Samsung had opened a branch in Tokyo.

If he wanted to contact Samsung's salesman, Chen Linzhi had to find a way out by himself.
