Chapter 55: Pregnancy Falls (Ask for Recommendation, Ask for Collection)

During the mid-year performance evaluation, Terry gave Allen an A because he led the credit information system project, and also hyped and commended Allen's "contribution" to the project, and Allen further confirmed this "name".

Muzi is like watching a spy movie, and he personally participates in all aspects of the project, but he feels that he has not integrated into this "game rule" at all.

Terry didn't do anything, he just knew Allen's personality very well, and let him play and perform in this project like a clown, and eventually became the target of public criticism.

After the project, Muzi conducted a review, and she realized that in everything she does, she must not only look at the present, but also look forward, forward, and forward.

It is necessary to form a closed loop of the whole event, taking into account the possibilities and risks of each link, so as to decide what you can and cannot do next.

Muzi was a little afraid, if it weren't for the departure of Linda in the middle and the episode of Allen blocking the gun, would Linda or herself passively become Allen's role today?

Although it is impossible to harm others and prevent others, Terry seems to have done nothing on this project, and all actions are taken by Allen on his own initiative.

In the adult world, a basic principle is to be responsible for one's own actions, everything is decided by oneself, and no one else should be blamed, and no one else can be blamed, so Allen does not deserve sympathy.

But for himself, as the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and Muzi reminds himself that he must be in the spirit of twelve points.

Because of these problems found in the credit inquiry, EB terminated the cooperation with all the problem suppliers at the first time, and also involved more than a dozen EB staff members who actively or passively left EB, and many marketing and procurement and surrounding positions have a situation where they need to supplement manpower.

Muzi actually doesn't understand, directly using the company he invests in to cooperate with EB, this is a dangerous thing to think about with your toes, these people just did it, which shows the big management loopholes, and how rampant these people are.

Peter, VP of EB China, was faced with an important decision, whether to maintain a headcount to replenish these teams, or to integrate the entire marketing and procurement structure, as Terry suggested?

Not only is there a shortage of staff, but many of the projects that have been terminated also need to restart supplier recruitment as soon as possible.

Peter looked at the proposal sent by Terry in the computer, the original number of all EB China marketing and procurement personnel was 115 people, if through the integration of the performance frame structure, Terry's proposal said that the initial planning needs the number of personnel is 80 people, to achieve 30% of the personnel savings.

In the future, through overall procurement, the savings in procurement policy will exceed 10%, and EB's annual marketing purchase volume is nearly 10 billion, and 10% can almost bring 1 billion savings.

Whether it is from the EB shopping festival or this credit survey, there are many hidden dangers and drawbacks in scattered management, and it seems that Terry's proposal is the best solution that can be selected at present.

Just when Peter hesitated, a bombshell news broke out on the major news portals: Lexianghui online brand store invites you to participate in the summer shopping carnival.

The overall marketing strategy was much better than the collapse of the shopping discount week in September last year, and the whole marketing strategy was robust and thoughtful, and EB management urgently held a meeting in response to this event, and the VPs of each business unit and the heads of the core marketing team were invited to participate.

At the meeting, Eva, Marketing Director of EB's Marketing Department, conducted a comprehensive and multi-dimensional analysis of the shopping festival activities:

"Ladies and gentlemen, yesterday the major media suddenly broke out the blowout report of the Lexianghui shopping festival activities, and our team urgently sorted out and analyzed the information, and preliminarily concluded that the marketing strategy of the Lexianghui event is as follows:"

"The first point: the use of a wide product strategy, almost all brands of products to carry out the same tonal publicity"

"The second point: the main price war strategy, the goal is to further consolidate the advantages of their domestic e-commerce brand business, with the price war as the core weapon, and launch a promotional combination. ”

"The third point: the promotion strategy adopts online and offline marketing and publicity on the whole network, and multi-screen joint investment. ”

"Last year, we invited the new generation of idol Lin Yunhe to carry out traffic blessings, and this time they directly invited the popular star Wen Wen of film and television songs and Lin Hai, who we did not successfully invite last year, to help with the advertising campaign, which can be described as our upgraded version. ”

VPJANE added: "In particular, this shopping festival is just a carrier, and their core strategy is to launch an online brand store model today, which is different from EB's continued to scatter third-party small and medium-sized sellers, and this model of concentration of head sellers will have a great impact on us." ”

After Eva and Jane finished speaking, the bosses' faces became even more solemn.

Peter began, "Everyone has their own opinions. ”

Ben, VP of Digital Home Appliances Division, said: "This year's Lexianghui brand store will indeed have a big impact on us, we are a cross-border e-commerce company, and the domestic business has been slightly inferior to Lexianghuilai, and this time we may be further thrown away." ”

"This year, we should continue to hold the 9.8 Shopping Festival to continue to consolidate our advantages in the business and at the same time narrow the gap in the domestic business. ”

Colin, VP of Make-up & Care Division, also said: "It's really stressful right now, and after last year's EB Shopping Festival, I've been struggling to find new profit growth points.

"I agree with Jane that this year's 9.8 Shopping Festival will continue to be held, but it is due to a lack of manpower. ”

"At present, some of our business and supplier cooperation have come to an abrupt halt, and our manpower is very tight, and we have to use it for a long time to restore the stagnant business. ”

……

During the meeting, Terry's phone rang twice, and Terry saw that it was an unfamiliar number, so he cut it off.

The third time rang again, it looked like it was the promise's mobile phone calling, thinking of the previous two calls, Terry felt more and more uneasy, is something wrong?

Hesitating, Terry stood up and walked out of the conference room to answer the phone in front of many bosses.

The phone was connected, and an eager voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, I am Qiuqiu, the assistant of Promise, are you Promise's family?"

Qiuqiu's name sounds unfamiliar, new assistant, and how does she know her phone number?

Instead of answering directly, Terry asked, "Hello, is there anything wrong?"

Qiuqiu said anxiously: "Promise is pregnant, she just accidentally fell into a coma, and now she is in the hospital." ”

Terry's eyes darkened, and he asked, "How is it now?"

Qiuqiu said: "I just hung up the drip, and I said that I would stay in the hospital for observation. Are you coming over now?"

Terry calculated the time, and the last time he was with Promise was during the 9.8 shopping festival last year, so this kid couldn't be his own.

Terry said calmly: "Please tell me the specific address, I will visit her later." ”
