In the eyes of other employees of White Lotus Company, Jing Jian's first impression of the new boss was quite good and quite close to the people. Shake hands one by one, say a few words, and announce that tomorrow afternoon and evening, a company-wide picnic barbecue party will be held on the lawn in front of the company, and families are welcome to participate.

And Jennifer's company, now the White Lotus company, its only valuable asset is this three-story office building in the suburbs of Los Angeles. To be honest, the size is not much different from Jingjian's villa. However, the building has also been mortgaged to a local commercial bank, and those loans have become a backlog of goods in the warehouse.

The original Jennifer Company was a very traditional mail-order company. Due to the fact that the mail-order industry in North America is quite developed and highly competitive, many companies have changed their sales forms, mainly adopting the direct sales of points, which is the multi-level marketing model that modern China hates deeply. But in the United States, such direct selling, or pyramid schemes, are legal. For example: Amway.

But Jennifer's company is more traditional, so it has always used the "most primitive" advertising paper-telephone-mail sales model. Therefore, in the overwhelming pyramid scheme encirclement and suppression, it was gradually defeated. However, the goods it originally sold were no different from those direct sales companies, such as low-quality jewelry, cosmetics, health food, etc., which were non-essential items with large price differences and easy to cause housewives to consume impulsively.

As a result, there are 500,000 or 600,000 commodities in the company's warehouse, and the monthly salary expenditure is about $50,000. At this time, it was not as inflationary as it was later, and the dollar was still quite valuable. The salary is not too high, and the basic weekly salary of the average employee is about 3 or 400 US dollars.

As for the company's other expenses, it is $3 or $400,000 a year. And the largest part of the expenditure - express delivery, which needs to be purchased, will have the expenditure, so it can be included in the cost.

Before coming, Jing Jian had already studied the company's information in detail. Therefore, as soon as the greetings were over, he and Smith gathered Kent and several other company executives.

As soon as he sat down, Jing Jian went straight to the point: "It's a pleasure to meet you. Before I arrived, I had negotiated with Bank of America to secure a $500,000 loan for the company secured by my personal assets. And this money will be credited to the company's account next week. And in the remaining months of today and throughout next year, an additional $2 million in cash will be invested. ”

Upon hearing this, Kent and the others all breathed a sigh of relief. With money, basically the company will not be able to go out of business in the short term. The bankruptcy law in the United States is similar to that of China, and the failure of a company only involves the company's assets, and has nothing to do with the boss's private assets. In other words, even if the White Lotus Company goes bankrupt and liquidates, Jing Jian's personal assets will not be affected in the slightest, and he does not need to take out his own money to the company. However, Jing Jian's approach now is private support for the company. There is no equity issue here. It was originally exclusive to Jing Jian's private family. No matter how much it increases, it is still 100% exclusive to him.

Jing Jian continued: "To motivate you. I have personally decided that 10% of the company's earnings will be distributed to the management of the company as dividends each year, in addition to the remuneration stipulated in the contract with you. Another 10% is allocated to all employees of the company. ”

For this one, Kent basically ignored it. It used to be beyond its means, but now if it can make ends meet, it will be God bless. Besides, the new boss is really young, and he is from Red China, and basically everyone here is not confident.

Jing Jian also ignored Kent's negative attitude. He continued: "I don't care how you were before, just how you perform from now on. Here's a plan for the near future, so let's take a look at ......."

All the managers looked at it carefully, and there was basically no objection to the work plan about their own work content, because it was the same thing that was originally done. Only Kent and Mr. Rob, who was in charge of sales, were surprised: "Boss, how do you sell these? And it's from China?"

The company has a long history, and it has a little heritage. The market research of various commodities is not well understood, but at least quite familiar. Mr. Rob introduced to Jing Jian: "Boss, these fast-moving consumer goods are basically sold in major shopping malls and supermarkets, and the profits are very thin, and they are not suitable for mail order. Costumes, shoes and socks are okay, but they are also ....... The biggest problem is that these goods are all from China, and the purchase price may be really low, but the quality cannot be guaranteed at all. We didn't have a brand, and we couldn't do it through TV commercials, so ......"

Jing Jian listened very carefully, not for the knowledge, because he had known it for a long time, but for the preliminary investigation of this Rob. It should be said that it is barely qualified.

"What else do you have to say?" Jing Jian asked Kent again.

"Boss, I think, can be bundled as a giveaway. It wouldn't hurt if you could increase your sales every month. Kent replied.

Jing Jianjian is labeled, good at communication, and more will be with thin mud. Maybe the ability to manage a small company is enough, but the pioneering is not enough. However, now there are only a few people on hand, so let's make do with it.

In that case, it is better to make your own decisions.

"At the moment, there are several things that need to be taken care of. 1. Kent, I need to set up a branch office in Hamburg, at least the most basic staff. You're in charge and you'll hear back to me within a week. The preliminary budget is 1 million marks, 2. I will be responsible for the early purchase of goods with a CIF value of 400,000 US dollars from China, 3. Contact our cooperative packaging factory, and I may go to see and discuss new business cooperation in the next few days; 4. The previous mail order business will continue as usual. I found that in fact, the monthly sales are actually above 100,000 yuan, but the warehouse backlog is increasing at a rate of 3 or 40,000 yuan per month. I don't know what's wrong here, and I don't want to hold anyone responsible, but if I go ahead, I'll stop selling the backlog of items first. Can't ...... endlessly"

......

On the Nanwan construction site thousands of miles away, Wang Guobin was very busy. The construction of 15 foreign-funded factories started at once, although the scale is not very large, but it has made the local government overjoyed and gave the green light.

However, Wang Guobin is under great pressure, and now in addition to money, there is a lack of assistants, manpower, materials, and ...... , which lacks everything anyway. Seeing a sum of money melt out like water every day, but he has no clue about the future of the factory, which makes Wang Guobin anxious.

At this moment, suddenly, my cousin, who had brought me to help, rushed over happily: "Brother Bin, I just faxed an order, and there is $300,000." ”

"Ah, this factory hasn't been built yet, so did you come to order?"
