Chapter 416: Do a good job after the holiday
When his wife saw that his brows were tightly knit these days, in stark contrast to the elation of the previous week, she asked, "Are you feeling unwell?"
Ma Tianming said: "No, it's a matter of work. ”
"Is there a change in work?"
"No, it's a business matter, don't ask if you don't understand. ”
"Didn't you say you've found a knack for doing business? His wife couldn't figure out how Ma Tianming could have changed so much in just over a week.
"Plans are not as fast as changes, there are more doorways here, and you don't understand it!" Ma Tianming was a little impatient.
"If you don't say it, don't say it, I'm too lazy to care about your idle business!" Ma Tianming's wife muttered, picked up the dishes and chopsticks on the coffee table and went into the kitchen.
Ma Tianming's hesitation delayed for a few more days, and within a week after he talked to Li Xin, the price of sucrose futures had exceeded 4,000 yuan.
By April 16, the price of sugar had risen to 4,199 yuan.
At this time, Ma Tianming finally admitted that the 3,400 yuan he had been waiting for seemed to be unable to wait.
Seeing that this wave of rising momentum had been established, Ma Tianming didn't dare to hesitate any longer, he called Lin Li and several other district managers together for a meeting and said: "Starting tomorrow, you will immediately go to the sugar factory to buy goods, and try to get the maximum quantity of goods at the best price." Pay attention to the time, and strive to get all the purchase volume allocated to you in about a week. I estimate that after this time period, the price will not be advantageous. ”
Lin Li, who was sitting in the crowd, didn't look at Ma Tianming from beginning to end, and lowered his head to play with the carbon pen in his hand, he was worried that the disdain and contempt in his eyes would be seen by Ma Tianming.
The rapid rise in this wave of futures prices was completely expected. Listening to Ma Tianming's arrangement of the purchase of goods on it, he muttered to himself in his heart: "I said that there will definitely be a sharp rise after the crash! More than a week ago, you didn't buy the price of sugar near 3,650 yuan, but now the price has risen to more than 4,100 yuan, you come to chase it, I really don't know what you think." If I had done it according to my opinion, I would have made a profit of more than 300 yuan per ton of sugar now. Even if you don't have to wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day sugar season, selling it now is more profitable than stockpiling goods for half a year last year. ”
Ma Tianming, who was sitting in front of him talking endlessly and assigning tasks, had guessed a little bit of Lin Li's thoughts, if someone had bowed his head to play with things when he was lecturing before, he would have scolded people by name. But today he didn't talk about Lin Li, because he was also happy to see such an embarrassing situation where he didn't have to make eye contact with Lin Li.
Others don't know, but he and Lin Li both know in their hearts, and he only ordered to go to the sugar factory to buy goods at this time, which is a bit of a missed opportunity.
Under the urging of Ma Tianming, Lin Li and the others set off to various sugar factories to buy goods the next day.
It's just such a coincidence, during the time when Lin Li and they went to the sugar factory to buy goods, the price of cane sugar futures hovered back and forth at 4,100 yuan, as if to give Ma Tianming a chance to buy.
Ma Tianming, who has always been worried about not catching up with the opportunity, watched the price fluctuate back and forth, and was secretly happy in his heart. A few days later, after Lin Li and the others had completed all the quantities they had purchased, Ma Tianming breathed a sigh of relief in his heart: This is a solid situation! These goods in his hand will be kept until the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day sugar prices are at their best. Now that the warehouse is full, all that's left is waiting. It's like making wine, the ingredients are all stuffed in the vat, and time will turn everything into profit.
In this season, it is very good to get 4100 yuan/ton of goods, although compared with the price of 3600 yuan/ton half a month ago, it is a big profit less, but now the second wave of the rise has been established, according to this momentum, the price is likely to rise by another three or four hundred yuan within a month. If that's the case, I'll be able to do this second wave of short-term peace again.
Even if prices don't rise rapidly in the near future, there are only five months before the peak sugar consumption of the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, which is the peak of sugar prices in the year. Because by that time, the sugar of the previous crushing season had been almost sold, but the new crushing season had not yet begun, and the supply and demand of sucrose was just in the green and yellow season. Now that these goods are kept in the warehouse until that time, it should be expected to earn six or seven hundred yuan per ton.
By the end of the year, the combined profits of these two waves of business this year were considerable, which could make the sugar sales branch in his hands look completely new. At a time when the group's main non-ferrous metals business is facing many difficulties, it is a good opportunity for people to shine brightly.
And this is only this year's performance, according to their own expectations, in the future every year in the business process as long as they copy this year's successful model, you can make the profits of the sugar branch increase year by year.
Ma Tianming believes that these leaders above the group are not blind, as long as the performance of his sugar sales branch continues to rise, when he asks the group for a larger amount of liquidity to increase his business scale, he will have reason and confidence.
On this day, the ambitious Ma Tianming specially set up a banquet, which was not only a wine for him to celebrate the achievements of the managers of the area who went to the sugar factory to buy goods, but also a wine for them who were about to go to the major sales areas to sell cane sugar.
At the banquet, Ma Tianming specially asked Lin Li, who came to toast him: "How is it, do you have confidence in the sales performance in the second half of the year?"
Lin Li said with a smile: "Mr. Ma is confident, and I am confident." ”
Ma Tianming said: "You have something in this, what do you mean that I have faith, you have confidence? I ask if you have faith!"
Lin Li didn't dare to smile anymore, he said seriously: "Have confidence." ”
Ma Tianming pointed to the wine glass in Lin Li's hand and said, "You dry the wine first." ”
Lin Li craned his neck and drank all the wine in the wine glass. Lin Li finished drinking, but Ma Tianming didn't drink the wine in his cup. Ma Tianming then asked Lin Li: "How much do you see the price of sugar in the second half of the year?"
Lin Li's estimate of sugar prices more than half a month ago was very accurate, which left a deep impression on Ma Tianming. Now that Ma Tianming is holding so much sucrose with a very good price in his hands, he really wants to hear how much difference there is between the price in Lin Li's heart and the price in his heart.
Lin Li saw that Ma Tianming put the wine glass in his hand on the table, and he didn't mean to drink it at all, and he felt a little unhappy in his heart.
He had just drunk a full glass of liquor, and now his throat was as hot as a fire, and when he saw Ma Tianming staring at himself and asking questions, he secretly scolded in his heart: I came to toast you with good intentions, and it is okay if you don't drink it, but you can't help but let me take a breath, right? I just drank a glass of liquor, and you didn't even give me the opportunity to eat food and pressure the wine, what are you like us?
Seeing Ma Tianming staring intently at himself for an answer, Lin Li frowned and finally suppressed the rushing wine, and then said, "I think the price of about 4500 should be visible." ”
After hearing this, Ma Tianming patted him on the shoulder happily and said: "That's it, if you dig out the storage and transportation costs, the profit of about 300 yuan per ton can't be run." ”
Then he drew half a circle with his hand on the people in front of the table: "Attention, you guys will start to send the sugar in the warehouse to various sales areas in a week, and the sales performance in the second half of the year will be entrusted to you." At present, the sales situation is very good, and this batch of goods will definitely make money in the second half of the year. As for earning more and earning less, a large part of the factors are on yourself, if you do well, you will be rewarded, and if you don't do well, then weigh it yourself. ”
The policy of sticks and carrots is Ma Tianming's magic weapon to control the managers of these districts. The reason why officials crush people to death at the first level, Ma Tianming knows very well in his heart. The ancient training of Ma Tianming, who dies for wealth and birds for food, also has a deep essence.
He knows that the district managers under him have many years of sales experience, and in some areas they are not weaker than his own. For example, Lin Li's ability to predict sugar prices is very good.
These people often muttered about their own mistakes behind their backs, but Ma Tianming didn't know about it, he just had to use the power in his hands to drive these people to help him do things and make money.
Anyway, without their own recognition and support, these people will never leapfrog and rise above themselves.
Just like he himself is dissatisfied with many executives of the group, thinking that they are just mediocre people, but he has no choice but to have a higher official position than him, and he dares to be angry as a subordinate, so he has to swallow it in his stomach after knocking out his teeth.
If this was in the past, Ma Tianming would feel very depressed when he thought of these things, because he couldn't see his hope for the future.
But now it's different.
Ma Tianming, who suddenly realized the mystery of making money, is like discovering a golden road to the future that only he knows, as long as he follows this path, his future will be bright. Not to mention the current top boss Huang Hongliang, even Jin Changxing, the chairman of the group, may not be able to limit his future.
When the district managers saw Ma Tianming speak, they nodded their heads in response. They know very well in their hearts that if they are not supported by excellent sales performance, everything else is a floating cloud.
Lin Li rolled his eyes when he heard this, and gave Ma Tianming an idea and said: "Mr. Ma, there will be a May Day holiday in five or six days, why don't we go out after the holiday? ”
Ma Tianming thought about it, he was drunk and confused today, and he didn't notice that the May Day Golden Week was just around the corner. So he said, "No problem, then let you get away with it for another week, but I'll say the ugly things in front, you have to work hard for me after I come back from the May Day holiday!"
