Chapter 53: Gift-giving
Most of the "big customers" upstairs in Yin's house have nothing to do with this batch of products.
However, Chen Linzhi was still very happy to learn that the stockings were of good quality, hung up the phone and hurriedly contacted Dempsey, who worked in the purchasing department of Wal-Mart, to ask the other party to have a meal in the evening, which was the same restaurant last time.
Originally, I heard Chen Linzhi say that it was a source of stockings, wallets, shoes, puppets, toys and the like, but Mr. Dempsey was not interested, these things were available everywhere, and he was going to push them off and go to play cards with his friends.
Later, I heard Chen Linzhi mention that he had brought some small gifts, and thinking of the two strippers last time, Dempsey's heart was hot, and he subconsciously thought that he had arranged it for himself again, as if Chen Linzhi was divided into the kind of people who were very good at doing things.
So I finally agreed to wait until after work tonight, and make an appointment to meet at the restaurant for a detailed discussion.
......
Each ordered a wellington steak, and the appetizer was a small portion of foie gras, served with ice cream for dessert.
Chen Linzhi had two bottles of red wine at his feet, and spent more than $400 on his Obiang red wine, these two bottles of wine belonged to appetizers, and the real meal was under the red wine's anti-collision cloth, a total of 5,000 US dollars, which can be said to be full of sincerity, worthy of the income of the ordinary small and middle class for a whole year.
People often say that the aroma of wine is not afraid of deep alleys, but in order to find a helper who can speak, Chen Linzhi felt that it was necessary to burn a fire, burn the cold stove vigorously, and everyone would get rich.
Gift-giving is a science, and if you have more, you will lose, and fatten the other party's appetite, and it is inconvenient to ask someone to do things next time.
If the other party doesn't look down on you, it is likely that things will not be done, but it will backfire.
Maybe talent has always been hidden in the genes, Chen Linzhi was enlightened by Roger last time, in the gift of this kind of thing, he did not have any discomfort, at this moment first show the goods brought to Mr. Dempsey, one by one to introduce the price, material, quality.
By the way, when Mr. Dempsey was pulling the stockings, he added oil and vinegar to the content of the phone call with Yin Yu just now, and told the other party as a meat joke.
Dempsey has never been a serious person, and he was really amused by Chen Linzhi to laugh, and he also looked at the high quality of stockings invisibly, and thought it was very good.
It's good, but it's not enough to make him tempted, Mr. Dempsey has a good sense of Chen Linzhi, and he remembered him when they met for the first time last time, and now he told him openly and honestly:
Whether it's stockings or purses, you'll find plenty of them in Mexico and Brazil, and there are a number of factories in the U.S. that produce similar goods.
If you can find a source of goods that our supermarket does not have now, and may be very popular, then I will be willing to help you, and there will be no resistance on the company's side. β
Without a girl to accompany them, the two old men had dinner, after all, there was a little less atmosphere, and they thought too much in advance, so Dempsey's thoughts of helping were light, and he was too lazy to help coordinate and dredge and get the goods from Chen Linzhi.
Chen Linzhi's killing move had not yet been released, At this time, he calmly drank red wine and whispered:
You should remember that I was born in San Francisco and I am Chinese on the other side of the river, and I have recently opened up the market to do business, and I would rather subsidize factories than return to the world economic stage, so the price of goods is very low.
For example, this batch of stockings, I was responsible for delivering them to Wal-Mart's transit logistics warehouse, and the wholesale price was only 40 cents, and there were cheap ones, but the quality was not as good as this batch. In addition, I can also find a large number of other sources, your company can call me directly if you have any product needs, such as spring clothes, slippers, sun hats, etc., which will become hot products in a few months. β
"Thirty-five cents? β
As soon as Mr. Dempsey finished speaking, Chen Linzhi decisively added:
"It's a reasonable price, you just need to add some money and sell it to customers, the quality is much better than ordinary stockings, I believe customers should like it."
Besides, that's what the sales department should be worried about, you just need to take care of yourself, don't you? I brought you two bottles of 1982 Obiang and kept shaking them in them, so I put something behind the cushions, and I'm sure you'll love it, Mr. Dempsey. β
As he spoke, he pushed the gift box at his feet and motioned for Dempsey to take a look.
For the first time in his life, Chen Linzhi was unflustered, with a faint smile on his lips.
It has been calculated in advance that even if it is shipped to the United States, the cost of each pair of stockings will not exceed seventeen cents, compared to the stockings on the market, the pores are denser and the toughness is better.
Let's put it this way.
Last year, although the businessman said that he was highly knowledgeable, he did not fool people with the obsolete technology, but the price was a little bit, and the machines and technologies were quite advanced.
And in order to stand out among their peers, the masters in their factories will also improve the process slightly, and rarely get involved in foreign trade, for fear that foreigners will be picky and picky.
Therefore, when it comes to the quality of stockings, there is really nothing wrong with it.
Chen Linzhi habitually quoted a high price, thinking that if Mr. Dempsey talked about this piece, he could give him some room for profit, or give him a rebate according to the amount.
At this moment.
Dempsey's attention was all focused on the wine gift box at his feet, pretending to be drinking and looking around, not seeing any acquaintances.
He had already noticed that something was wrong, and he heard the deep meaning of Chen Linzhi's words, and picked up the wine box and muttered: "I like red wine, ChΓ’teau Obiang in France only produces fine products, my family has a collection of Margaux and Lafite, and there is also a five-liter bottle of red wine, which is produced in your California Parna Valley......"
Take out a bottle of red wine, lift the red cloth underneath, see that it is full of greenery, quickly cover the cloth, and then put the bottle back in place.
Americans are not popular for being modest and polite, a smile appeared on Dempsey's face on the spot, put the gift box back at his feet, raised a glass to drink with Chen Linzhi, and told: "I will help think of a way, and if there are other goods, you can also show me in the future."
How many pairs of stockings can you provide? This kind of product is suitable for five pairs, ten pairs of package sales, and when the weather is warm, it should be very marketable, if our company's profit is high enough, we will prioritize your goods on the best shelves, wait for me to know, OK?"
β...... Thirty-five cents at the minimum, I'll be able to ship a million pairs initially, and when it's done, how about a vacation to San Francisco, where we've got a lot of interesting places to have a drink with the women and the hot Latino girls.
In addition, a pair will give you a commission of two cents, one million is twenty thousand dollars, the more the better, I hope the payment can be faster. β
Chen Linzhi slashed himself, who would dislike high profits? It is nothing more than thinking about small profits but quick turnover, striving to maximize profits, and in a supermarket like Wal-Mart, it is not okay to have a black heart.
Mr. Dempsey felt more and more that Chen Linzhi was very interesting, and he couldn't help but smile on his face, men know how to smile.
He lost his appetite for food, and told Chen Linzhi: "Why wait later, I know that there is a place that is very good, and I will take you there directly after eating." β
