1122. Sell the comb to the monk
Sitting in the car and looking out the window, the high-rise buildings slowly receding on the side of the street made Chen Jin feel a lot of emotion.
Since the birth of his daughter, he has only returned to the company once, and after the completion of the strategic deployment at this stage, he has completely let go, and has been with his family wholeheartedly for a year and a half, and has never left for a moment.
As a result, the scope of his life was limited to his home, supermarkets, vegetable farms, and parks, but he didn't have the opportunity to visit the city where he had left countless traces.
Looking at it again this time, Chen Jin found that the streets were becoming more and more prosperous!
Led by Jinhan Group, the Dongjiang Municipal Government has cooperated with the talent introduction plan has been quite effective, coupled with the vigorous development of Xiangyun Group in the past two years, and several major Internet companies have been attracted by preferential policies and moved their headquarters to Dongjiang, making Dongjiang City the leading city in the domestic Internet industry.
In retrospect, this move was very far-sighted. The Internet has changed from an "important industry" in Dongjiang City to a "core industry".
Even Thumb Taxi, led by Huang Mian, has already gone public after several rounds of financing, and has developed into one of the top ten Internet companies in China in just one and a half years.
Thanks to the support of this cutting-edge core industry, Dongjiang City itself has become extremely rapid in development, but it has also suffered from the sequelae of development - traffic jams.
Although at the end of 2012, the subway line 1 that triggered the Dongjiang earthquake was officially opened, the subway network is far from being formed, and it has not really been able to alleviate the traffic situation. In addition, the number of motor vehicles brought about by economic development has increased significantly, so even if Chen Jin's Rolls-Royce drives on the road, it has to be honestly blocked, so that he has more time to see the scenery.
"The Dongjiang River is getting more and more blocked. Cha Mulin drove the car and complained quietly.
Chen Jin smiled slightly: "The pains brought about by development exist from the macro to the local. Two new viaducts, two urban tunnels, and three subway lines are now being planned, which will cause a lot of congestion on the road. ”
"But it's conceivable that in 10 or 20 years, when the city is getting better, these problems ...... Nothing will improve either. ”
"Huh?" Cha Mulin was stunned: "Won't it improve?"
"Urbanization. Wu Xiaojun joked: "Xiaolin, have you followed Brother Chen and read so much information and didn't understand it? The rate of population inflow exceeds the speed of urban development, and this phenomenon will not be particularly noticeable until the urbanization rate reaches 75%, and now it is just over 50%, which is still early!"
"Of course I know, I just didn't think about it for a while. Cha Mulin explained, causing the two of them to laugh.
However, Chen Jin is still very satisfied, at least the people around him have never stopped improving. Especially in the past two years, Wu Xiaojun has been idle for his study, and even he is impressed.
If he hadn't been forced to leave the army because he had offended people, he would have been able to be admitted to a military academy in the army and embark on a completely different life path from what he is now.
Finally, the five-kilometer journey took nearly 40 minutes to complete, and the car gradually approached the headquarters of Jinhan Group.
"You didn't inform the group about my return, did you?" asked Chen Jin.
Cha Mulin nodded: "Of course." Brother Chen, didn't you say that you want to see the real status quo of the group after the system gradually became bloated?
"As many words as you know. Chen Jin scolded with a smile and got out of the car.
The original Tingtao International Building has already been completely bought by Jinhan Group and has become the headquarters. Now all the departments and branches of the group are working in this building, and the people who come in and out, except for customers, are all Chen Jin's employees.
Without telling anyone, Chen Jin entered the building by himself and went to the first project on the 6th floor according to the name brand.
Although the business of Jinhan Group has contracted as a whole, there are still many cooperative projects in Dongjiang City and Chunan Province, so the project department occupies a large area from the 6th floor to the 10th floor, and is divided into several independent project departments.
This belongs to the internal department, and generally does not receive visitors, so there is no arrangement to welcome guests, and after Chen Jin went upstairs, he was more interested in shopping.
It can be seen that the vast majority of employees are conscientiously treating their work, after all, Jinhan Group is second to none in Dongjiang City in terms of salary and benefits, and no one wants to lose their jobs for no reason.
Occasionally, you can see one or two people dozing off on the table, but Chen Jin looked at the time, it was just the time to rest in the afternoon, and this moment was also the most sleepy stage of the day, plus those people's tables were full of materials, and they really couldn't resist fatigue and could understand.
Chen Jin slowly wandered from the 6th floor to the 10th floor, and he was basically satisfied. Although it can't be compared with the situation when the group was just established, he led a large group of people to fight chicken blood, but this time and that time.
Moreover, the group of people who fought chicken blood at the beginning have basically become the heads of various departments, and I am afraid it is difficult to maintain a high level of excitement in the current gentle business rhythm.
After reading the project department, Chen Jin went up the stairs to the sales training department on the 12th floor.
This is a department that he values more, because the main business of Jinhan Group is still all kinds of construction projects and real estate projects. Then the work of the sales training department directly determines the earning ability of Jinhan Group.
In addition, there is another reason, that is, the people from the sales training department are directly assigned to the four front-line departments of the sales department, Tiankun Company, Jinfang.com and "Tiankun + Platform".
And these departments are related to Chen Jin's overall deployment in the future, which can be described as the top priority.
In view of this, his requirements for the sales training department are much higher than those of other departments......
When he went upstairs, Chen Jin saw that the rest hall was full of people. During the afternoon break, these young people who have just applied for a successful job and joined the group gather here to rest and communicate.
"Sell the comb to the monk, tsk tsk~ The lecturer is the lecturer, I didn't expect there to be so many doorways in such a small story. ”
Chen Jin heard a newcomer talking about it, so he quietly leaned over.
"Come on. Someone retorted: "It's just a change of concept." Although the title is to sell the comb to the monk, the story makes the monk a dealer of the comb. ”
"One is to sell something to people who don't need it at all, and the other is to let others distribute it and generate profits, which are completely different concepts. ”
"Yang Xianling, then you say...... How should I sell the comb to the monk?"
"Heh~ If it were me, I wouldn't have sold the comb to the monk at all, because the monk didn't need it at all. The newcomer named Yang Xianling said seriously: "For example, when we sell a house, the most accurate target customers should be people who need houses, not those who already have a lot of houses." ”
"It is completely wrong to make the financial attributes of a house more important than the residential attributes. ”
Chen Jin was a little surprised.
The story of selling a comb to a monk is a classic story in the sales industry.
It is said that Zhang San and Li Si are both comb sellers, and one day passing by a temple, Zhang San sighed: "Monks don't need combs at all, we can't make a penny here." ”
But Li Si didn't think so, and through communication and guidance, he asked the monk to buy a comb and provide it to the pilgrims to use, comb his hair and tidy up his appearance before entering the incense, as a sign of respect for the immortal Buddha.
Then Zhang San was inspired by Li Si to make a batch of combs printed with Buddhist scriptures or Buddha images, and sold them to monks, who sold them to pious pilgrims.
After knowing this, Li Si had a better idea!
He taught monks to sell combs in graded grades, such as ordinary monks chanting and casting, eminent monks chanting and casting, and abbots chanting and casting, and it can even be said that the raw material of the comb is the spiritual tree that receives incense in the temple......
In this way, not only can the price be raised, but the temple can also make a lot of money.
When Chen Jin read this story by himself, it was indeed like what the newcomer said, he felt that there was no product that could not be sold.
But now, especially when his plans are related to bigger goals, the view is different.
The so-called sales should be to sell the product to the customer who needs it, rather than attaching financial attributes to the product.
If the customer itself does not need it, then what should be changed is the use attribute of the product itself, such as changing the comb into a rosary, rather than inducing the monk to make money by selling the comb......
Seeing it this way, Chen Jin became a little curious about the newcomer named Yang Xianling. Then he didn't go anywhere else, but waited patiently, and when the newcomers started the afternoon training, he moved a chair himself and quietly sat at the end.
The classrooms in the sales training department are very large, and there are dozens of students in each class, so naturally they don't all know each other, so they don't attract the attention of others.
After a while, the lecturer walked in, but Chen Jin was stunned when he saw him......
"Is it him?"
