Chapter Ninety-Four: A Deal with the Fat Man
"Brother, who is your brother, who are you?" said the fat man, as soon as he turned around.
Su Nian smiled: "It's not interesting, I don't believe you don't remember me." ”
As he spoke, Su Nian dragged the fat man to the side, pointed to the SLR in his hand and said, "What's the matter?
"Karma...... Can't you do it as a hobby?"
Su Nian smiled and said, "Okay, of course, come and let me see what you filmed?"
The fat man suddenly became vigilant: "What do I shoot about you? My own camera, this is personal privacy." ”
"But our stall owners on Chengxi Road also have personal privacy, and not everyone can take pictures. ”
Su Nian looked at the fat man and did not continue to look at his camera, but warned him directly.
"Do you think if I tell these stall owners about you secretly filming their stalls, what will happen to you in Chengxi Road in the future?"
As he spoke, Su Nian looked the fat man's body up and down, as if he was weighing his life.
The fat man couldn't help but shudder, still pretending to be hard: "You...... If you like to talk about it, just say it! It's a big deal, Lao Tzu won't come!"
Su Nian smiled, but looked at the fat man and didn't speak.
The two of them were silent for a moment, and the fat man finally gave up resistance: "Okay, okay, what are you looking for me?"
Su Nian nodded and said, "Find a place to sit down and talk?"
"Okay!"
After a few minutes, the fat man looked at the roasted sweet potato in his hand with some helplessness, feeling that he had been deceived.
Su Nian said to sit down and say, he thought he was inviting him to dinner, no matter how bad it was, he should have a coffee, right?
But now they are sitting on the side of the road, holding two roasted sweet potatoes in their hands, facing the crowd of people coming and going.
To be honest, although the fat man himself investigated the stall, he had never experienced such an experience himself.
"Are you all setting up stalls like this?"
Looking at the sweet potato in his hand, the fat man really felt that he couldn't eat it.
Su Nian peeled off the sweet potato skin, put it in the plastic bag at his feet, and took a bite to suck the cool air.
"Isn't that what we do? Sit on the side of the road and start soliciting business, otherwise what do you think?
The fat man struggled for a while, and finally peeled off the skin of the sweet potato.
Su Nian smiled, pointed to the crowd in front of him and said, "If it weren't for the people who set up the stalls, looking at these people would only be regarded as strangers, and they would feel uncomfortable." But we're different, we treat these people as friends. ”
"The stall shop is different from other businesses, we are a business between people, and this relationship is more important than between people and goods. ”
The fat man was puzzled: "But customers come to buy things, aren't they just for the goods?"
That's the difference between spiritual needs and material needs. Su Nian explained: "Then let me ask you, those people who go to the auto show to see the car, are they all to see the car?"
"That must be ......" The fat man spoke decisively, and in the middle of speaking, he suddenly realized that he was on the street, so he retracted: "Then it must be to see the model car." ”
Su Nian smiled: "So people have material needs, and of course they also have spiritual needs. What sets the stall shop apart from other places is that we have a better human interaction process. ”
He pointed to a stall in the distance, where a young man was spitting with the stall owner and fighting for two cents.
"It's like that, but what is two cents for us now? The most important thing is the process. ”
"We're not car models, but of course, if someone is willing, they can do a few stalls. But what we add is a state of life that modern people lack. ”
"The reason why the stalls have survived for a long time is because of this complementary function. ”
"People who come to the stalls to buy things are treated as our friends. Although you want to make money, although we have just met, business is business, and the most important thing is that everyone is happy. ”
"In the bargain, you get a mutually agreeable price, you get the product you want, I get the money, and the process is irreplaceable by the price. ”
"We are alone, even if we are people with high status, there will always be a boundary in the circle of life, and this circle will not be too big. ”
"Every day in front of these familiar people, I do my own thing step by step. Especially for office workers, it's hard enough to go to work, and there is no chance to communicate with other people, so how boring is life?"
"What the stall shop can provide is such an atmosphere. ”
"No matter what profession you have, whether you have money or not, when you get to the front of the stall, you are our friends. ”
"Some stall owners are good at telling jokes, some like to talk about current events, some like to gossip, and the goods on the stalls are more selective and more local. ”
"So, the pleasure of two cents is also great pleasure, don't you think?"
The fat man shook his head: "I don't think so, I just think it's a big loss for you to invite me to eat a sweet potato." ”
Su Nian was amused, why is this fat man so careful?
"I invited you to eat sweet potatoes, and you still lost a lot? I haven't said anything!"
The fat man looked at Su Nian and said: "What you want is nothing more than the information of the stall owners on Chengxi Road, let me tell you the truth, I did come to investigate these stalls, but the information can't be given to you." ”
"I can buy it for money. ”
"You can't spend money on it!" said the fat man decisively.
After a moment of confusion, the fat man explained in a low voice: "Let me tell you the truth, I am a person from a market research company, but the company is not big, half-dead, and I have to rely on these materials to go back and save my life!"
"Investigation company?" Su Nian was stunned.
He knew what a market research company was, and he had seen it with Lao Su before.
The so-called market research is an institution that investigates the market information of a region clearly, and then summarizes and analyzes it, or determines the degree of market prosperity in a region, or analyzes the development direction.
In the beginning, there was a public institution of this in the state.
However, it was later opened up and became the largest market research company in China, which is quite authoritative.
In addition to this largest one, there are other authoritative research companies that are also famous.
Then there are some small-scale survey companies, which usually provide some information and planning to some small companies, and even make reports for the wholesale market.
"So, how small is your company?"
The fat man flickered familiarly: "Our office is in the 1205 Heshuo Building on Parkson Street......"
Su Nian hurriedly pressed his shoulder: "Okay, okay, don't follow me with all these bells and whistles, how many employees do you have, and how big of a market can you investigate?"
The fat man was embarrassed for a moment, and then realized that the straw bag in front of him was not a straw bag that didn't know anything.
So he had no choice but to say: "Our company is now signaling a total of ...... Two, three, four, five, six...... The market in charge of the staff is the stall ...... on Chengxi Road."
Su Nian understood: "It's just nothing?"
The fat man blushed: "But we have dreams!"
Su Nian threw the sweet potato skin into a plastic bag and wrapped it, patted the fat man's shoulder, and pointed to the stall in front of him: "See, they all have dreams!"
The fat man pursed his lips: "Actually, we're okay, at least not yet." However, if we can take the lead when the Lancheng stall develops, we will definitely be able to gain a firm foothold in the future. ”
"Are you planning to start with the stalls?" Su Nian said.
The fat man nodded: "Otherwise, what else can there be to find a way out?" The market research in Lancheng is all decided by the Jialu family, and we can only stare here." ”
Nodding, Su Nian also knew that Jialu's company was a well-known local Yijia market survey in Lancheng.
"I still support you, if your company develops in the future, maybe we still have the possibility of cooperation, but now let's talk about business!"
The fat man shook his head: "It's true that we are friends, but you can't lie to my information!"
Su Nian was stunned for a moment, why are we friends? You haven't eaten any sweet potatoes, when I am blind?
He said: "I don't want the information of the stall you are staring at now, do you know that there are four large-scale stalls on Chengxi Road?"
"Yes. The fat man said, "There is no one left, and the others will be finished sooner or later." ”
"You give me the information of these four stalls, the more detailed the better, and then I will give you a big opportunity. ”
"What big opportunity?" the fat man's eyes lit up.
"You just say whether to sell it or not!" Su Nian said.
The fat man was entangled for a moment, looked at Su Nian, and then looked at the stalls that were blooming everywhere on Chengxi Road, and finally gritted his teeth: "If it's suitable......"
Su Nian said: "Believe me, you will definitely not suffer." ”
After that, Su Nian exchanged the qualifications for the fat man to produce at the Chengxi Road stall alliance meeting for the information of the four stalls.
When Su Nian left, the fat man still didn't react.
He had been wandering around Chengxi Road for so long, and he had never known that there was a stall alliance here.
The best stalls on Chengxi Road are all united?And the initiator of this alliance is still Su Nian?
At the beginning, he was afraid that Su Nian knew about the information he investigated, but now he knew that the information he had investigated was not enough to see at all.
There are so many stalls on Chengxi Road, just by touching it blindly, how much specific information can he get?
How many people do these stalls have every day, how much money does each booth make, and what kind of goods sell well......
He still hasn't figured out the basics.
But if Su Nian wants to know these things, he only needs to move his mouth.
Thinking of this, the fat man blushed a little.
Not just panicked, but also a little excited. Now that I have used the information of a few stalls that are about to close down to penetrate the temporal part of the entire Chengxi Road stall, it will not be easy to investigate the information in the future?
He felt that he was going to be developed!
