Chapter 69: Production
With the assistance of the staff of the American Toy Association, Han Chudong signed so many agency agreements, so the staff of the association felt that this toy company called "Mango" had great potential for development.
So when he finished talking to Mrs. Johnson and packed his things to go through the formalities, the staff didn't make it too difficult.
A vice president of the association personally counted two thousand dollars in cash, put it in an envelope and handed it to him, and said enthusiastically: "This is the booth rent for the next two days, congratulations on achieving your goal ahead of schedule, I hope that next year you can also bring more novel and good toys to come to the exhibition, and we will contact you for other activities in the future." ”
After the other party counted the cash in front of him, Han Chudong took the envelope and put it in his jacket pocket.
With a smile on his face, he said: "Thank you very much, this is really a great event, it perfectly solves the problem of selling our company's toys, and I will definitely participate in the next event." ”
The benefits have been reaped, and the loss of $2,000 in rent has been successfully recovered, and I don't mind saying a few more nice words at this moment.
Since I think I will continue to mix in this industry in the future, it is indispensable to deal with the Toy Association, and it is necessary to make friends with these people.
The vice president said again: "Originally, we were going to have a small party the night after tomorrow, you know, it was a group of colleagues in the field drinking and talking to each other, it seems that you will not participate, but I know that it is more important for your company to be busy with production now, so I can only wait for the next time."
I would like more people to get to know our association and realize that it can make a huge difference in the toy business, and you are obviously the star of this year's toy fair. ”
Free advertising opportunities, why turn down.
Han Chudong agreed without thinking about it, nodded and replied: "OK, call my company when the time comes, preferably in the afternoon or evening, you should have returned to Los Angeles by then......"
After shaking hands, he pulled the lighter suitcase and left.
The process back to Los Angeles did not go as smoothly as expected, and today the tickets from Chicago to Los Angeles are sold out, and there is no place for even first class.
There are still flights to San Francisco, but it takes about six hours to drive from San Francisco back to Los Angeles, so it's not worth it, so it's better to wait until tomorrow morning to leave.
So I renewed the hotel, ready to stay another night, and went to the airport to buy a ticket before 10 o'clock tomorrow morning, and I have already made a reservation by phone.
This is exactly what Zhou Nan wants.
I didn't hook up with the girl in the bar last night, and I'm pouting Han Chudong to go again in the evening.
However, Han Chudong's mind was not on this at all, he still had a lot of things to deal with, and told the watermelon head: "Let's wait until I'm done, I really need to drink two glasses of wine to calm down, but now I have to finish the production first." ”
"Okay, okay, then I won't bother you first, go back and lie down for a while to recuperate, and you invite me to drink in the evening." ”
Zhou Nan said.
His brother made a fortune today, and it was nothing to pit a little drink, and until now he has not accepted the fact that Han Chudong has become a millionaire.
Envy is right, but I don't think that this money is blown by the wind, I know very well how busy Han Chudong has been in recent times, so busy that compared with before, it is like a different person, Zhou Nan thinks that he doesn't have the brains to make money.
The most curious thing is that they didn't learn and didn't know how to do it together, but now Han Chudong suddenly took off, and he was a little worried that he wouldn't be able to play together in the future, thinking that he would have to work hard.
……
Talk to Boss Yang on the phone.
Boss Yang Guangnian recently made a lot of money from Han Chudong, and seeing that he could earn more in the future, while he was excited about receiving a big order, troubles also followed.
At this time, he said on the phone:
"Your friend Zhao Dajun came here and told me about hurrying up production, according to your needs, I may have to add a few more production lines.
But I don't have the money to invest, and I also need money to purchase raw materials, so you can see if you can advance some points to me first, and then you will have to hire more Chinatown idlers to help assemble and pack, and the cost is not small. ”
After listening to this, Han Chudong did not hesitate at all, sat on the sofa and crossed Erlang's legs, held the microphone in his hand and said: "Okay, first give you a deposit of 100,000 dollars, whether it is enough, the rest is easy to say, the quality must be guaranteed, you must personally stare at this piece, not just seek speed." ”
"Of course, you can rest assured that I will do things. You can buy a few more production lines for 100,000 US dollars, but don't play with me, if you suddenly find someone else to process it, then won't I lose money?"
"Boss Yang, you can rest assured, as long as you don't ask for a price and ensure the quality, I am willing to cooperate with you for a long time, if you really don't worry, wait for me to go back tomorrow and we will sign a supplementary agreement again." ”
"Okay! But your demand is still too great, and the next step is not just to produce magic balls, I wonder if I can ask other companies to help with OEM production from you?"
Han Chudong's idea was actually to find a factory by himself and not completely rely on the light-year plastic factory.
But since Boss Yang took the initiative to ask, thinking that it was important to hurry up and supply the goods, he replied after a short thought: "It's okay, I'll give you a quotation, whether you produce it yourself or find other factories to cooperate, I'll give you a quote tomorrow, I think I can do it and arrange production immediately, my agent here is urging me to pay you later, and I'll let the accountant ......pay you later."
After talking to him on the phone, I made another call to the company, and then I also called Han Yigun to report the good news, and by the way, I reported my safety.
After hearing the news, he was fluttering when he walked, for fear that the news of making money was just a dream.
I didn't even go to work, so I rushed to Mr. Han to report the good news as soon as possible, preparing to give the God of Wealth pillar incense, and begging him to continue to bless the Han family to make a fortune.
There is no one at hand, and you have to do these things yourself.
It just so happened that there was nothing to do for the time being, and Han Chudong felt that he could go to the headhunting company and ask.
Many headhunters have worked in the human resources department of the enterprise before, and they know what kind of talent is suitable for their needs, and can always find the right person to recommend to customers.
Check the Yellow Pages first and call a professional staffing company based in Los Angeles.
The selection requirements are those who have worked in large toy companies, preferably understand Chinese, and have a high degree and long-term work experience are preferred.
After placing the commission, it took some time to wait, and Han Chudong asked the other party to be ready before five o'clock in the afternoon tomorrow, and bring the candidate information to Chinatown for an interview.
There are currently two stores on Baofeng Electric's side, and there is no shortage of manpower for the time being, so he feels that he can handle it well, and he will talk about hiring people later.
And the mango toy here.
It is necessary to be busy with delivery, and to arrange production, and to run everywhere, contact agents and supervise the situation of pirated toys on the market, the threshold for the production of toys is not high, and the appearance of counterfeit goods is an inevitable phenomenon, and it is necessary to pay close attention to the signs of infringement from the beginning, at least to hold the local market in the United States.
Calculating the time, it was still early in the morning, so he gave up calling Kameri Erhe and told him the company's idea of developing a new toy.
Han Chudong understands that people's hearts can't withstand temptation, but he still thinks that he should take a look for the time being, thinking that if he finds that guy is cheating and cheating, he will find another agent.
Thinking of this, I called the headhunter again, looking for an employee who understands Japanese, and needs to be sent to Yuben to work for a long time, preferably himself.
When I go out to the bar with the watermelon head at night, I feel that doing business is more tiring than studying, but the real return is very refreshing.
The watermelon head's flirtatious skills are simply amazing.
Han Chudong thought he was a good friend, and he had already personally come to the scene to help find two girls to drink together, but this guy actually talked to the other party about sales, what kind of girl would be interested in sales, especially when she wanted to rest in the bar.
He tossed it casually, anyway, there was no girl in his eyes tonight, Han Chudong was not ready to make a move, he was so tired that he had no extra thoughts.
In the end, they went back to their rooms to sleep, and they heard movement next door at night, and they didn't take it seriously, and the next morning they heard the watermelon head say that a woman knocked on their door, and then there was a little story.
Of course, the matter of how much to pay in the end was deliberately omitted by the watermelon head.
I don't know when I will next come to Chicago, so I took a taxi and walked around before heading to the airport.
It was another small plane full of smoke, Han Chudong had been sleeping since he got on the plane, and when he woke up, he had returned to Los Angeles......
