Chapter 33: The Crash Fix
"The beauty salon mainly does body care and micro-plastic surgery projects, but my store manager used to be an imported lipstick agent, he is an expert, you take a clear photo of the ten lipsticks and send them to me, mainly the bottom label, and then send them to my QQ mailbox. Dong said.
I hurriedly thanked him, thinking that this guy who was always sneering at me at class reunions would not be able to help. At that time, the pixels of the mobile phone were not high, and 3.2 million was already considered high-end, but for the sake of insurance, Xiao Lu found a Canon digital camera, which he bought newly last month, with 8 million pixels. I took the 10 lipsticks side by side, took photos of the front, side and bottom labels and sent them to Mr. Dong.
Half an hour later, Dong replied with a text message: "I can't see it from the front side, but the bottom label is different, the fourth branch on the left is fake, and the smallest English letter in the center line is not aligned with the numbers above, and the real thing must be aligned." My store manager said that this is a high-quality imitation, and the average salesperson can't see it. ”
"W-Is this really fake?" Xiao Lu was surprised, and I was also very surprised, so to be sure, we found a clean transparent bag, packed up the lipstick that seemed to be a fake, and took a taxi to the cosmetics store.
When the shopkeeper heard about it, he smiled and said, "Our shop has been open here for six or seven years, and we have never sold a single fake. "But I insisted on finding someone to identify it, and the owner had no choice but to say that I should go to the Saint Laurent cosmetics counter in the middle street commercial city. The counter salesman looked at it for a long time, and finally said that these ten were all true. I pointed out that the letters and numbers on the bottom label were not aligned, and she shook her head: "I don't see any misalignment, it's obviously aligned." ”
This is difficult, I want to go back, but Xiaolu has a temper, not to say that the salesman can't see it, and he has to find someone to identify it. The shopkeeper was very angry: "Aren't you deliberately making things difficult? This is the Saint Laurent counter, they can't see it, do you have to say that there is a problem, do you want to bite and taste it one by one, and see if the taste is right?"
The salesperson respectfully chatted with her and said to us: "This is Ms. Zhao, the beauty consultant of Yves Saint Laurent Shenyang Branch, who has studied in France and is an expert, let her show it." ”
The female expert first picked up the lipstick in the transparent bag, identified it from all angles, and probably only looked at it for less than half a minute, and then put it on the counter: "This one is indeed fake." Everyone was surprised, the female expert continued to look at the rest, and finally said that only that one was a high-grade imitation, it should be a high-end imitation in Dongguan, and other places can't be so realistic, and the other nine are genuine.
"Take a closer look!" the shopkeeper panicked. The female expert smiled and said, if I think it's fake, it's fake, and if I look away, I won't have to work in the cosmetics industry again. She took out a small folding magnifying glass from her purse and told us why she said it was a fake. Zoom in on the letters on the bottom label, and sure enough, only under the magnifying glass can we see that the letters and the numbers on it are indeed not exactly aligned. But without the help of a magnifying glass, I can't see even if I am blind, and I have to admire that an expert is an expert.
Walking out of the commercial city, the shopkeeper was a little flustered, saying that she didn't know about it, the purchase channels were fixed, how could she mix in a fake one, and Xiaolu was still an old customer, so she couldn't lie to him. In the end, she said that as long as she didn't get into trouble with the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, she was willing to compensate Xiaolu ten times.
I said, "It's not about money, it's about ......," and I thought to myself about the amulet offerings, but even if I told the shopkeeper, she didn't understand. Xiao Lu's face was ugly, the store owner gritted his teeth, and said that he was willing to pay 20 times, 3,000 yuan, and after speaking, he took out his bank card on the spot, found an ATM and took 3,000 and handed it to Xiao Lu, and said that he would take time to go to the store and give him a real YSL lipstick. We took a taxi back to the cosmetics store, this time the store owner was on guard, asked the clerk to go to the stationery store to buy a magnifying glass, and took all the YSL lipsticks in the store to the office for identification.
The owner of the store was furious and said that he must have a good chat with the supplier, and asked the clerk to keep it absolutely confidential, laugh and say good things, and send us out of the cosmetics store. It was already evening when I returned to Xiao Lu's house, and he put ten real lipsticks neatly around the Buddha cards on the table, and we were relieved. I said to him, "It's okay, you didn't mean to give a fake to the amulet, and you corrected it so quickly, don't worry." Xiao Lu also nodded.
When I got home, I texted Kaohsiung to report on the day. Kaohsiung only replied with two words: "It's a pity." ”
What does that mean? I asked again, but he didn't reply.
After a while, I couldn't let go of my heart, and asked Xiao Lu about his recent situation. He said that after switching to real lipstick, he never had any dreams again, good or bad. During this time, he negotiated two orders, and after that, he also changed to new offerings. I didn't ask any more questions, thinking I was fine.
Through Lao Meng's mouth, I can know Xiao Lu's recent situation at any time, maybe there are ups and downs, his business volume began to decrease, at first I suspected that it was related to the Buddha card, but occasionally we still negotiated a few orders, and those big orders signed before still have a monthly commission. I thought to myself that this is not bad, even if the evil card is not always effective, the canned food will still spoil after a long time, so let the yin spirit rest.
On this day, several classmates had dinner together, and Dong returned to Shenyang from the store in Beijing, and mentioned the YSL lipstick in the chat. Lao Meng said: "Lu Ping is finished now, the day before yesterday, a company CEO came to the company and said that Lu Ping signed a medical insurance company policy before, and there was a clause that was not clearly explained to them. Later, the boss was hospitalized with a heart attack, and the company did not give insurance, saying that it was a critical illness outside the scope and would not pay compensation. The boss was very angry and made a big fuss, if it wasn't for the vice president of the company to come forward to settle down, the boss would not be finished. ”
"Is there such a thing?" I quickly asked, "and what happened after that?"
Lao Meng said: "Now we are talking about customers and recording the whole process, just to avoid disputes in the future, play it back, Lu Ping really didn't make it clear at the beginning." This is even a business mistake of the insurance company, and Lu Ping will be fined 50% of the loss according to the regulations, and the commission and bonus will be recovered, and the total compensation will be almost 100,000 yuan. ”
Dong said: "It's not, you have to lose so much money to sell insurance." ”
"He deserves it!" Lao Meng snorted, "If you don't explain the terms to the customer clearly when selling insurance, you will know that the rhetoric seems to be good, but in fact, it is a quick fix." "Seeing Lao Meng's down-and-out appearance, I didn't have the heart to despise him, I was just worried about Xiao Lu. There is a problem with the offering of the goddess of career, they don't know about this, and now that Xiao Lu is like this, is it another revenge from the yin spirit? I shuddered.
