The reception was hosted by professionals from PR firms. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The host first enthusiastically adjusted the atmosphere of the scene, and then invited Li Liqun, secretary of the municipal party committee, to speak.
There was only a small podium, and Li Liqun stood to speak. He described the basic status quo of Lunan agriculture, expounded the positive significance of the establishment of the Huinong Foundation, emphasized the importance of the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to the Foundation, and finally invited the representatives of the business community to carry forward the style, actively raise donations, and make contributions to the old folks.
It's concise and to the point, and it takes only 5 minutes before and after. However, many business owners who were invited to the scene only drew in their hearts, secretly thinking about how much to donate to pass the test.
Then Zhang Zhenyi, Minister of Propaganda of the Municipal Party Committee, announced the list of directors of the Foundation Council and read out the appointment letter of the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Foundation.
Zhang Jishun's appointment did not make any waves, he is an old entrepreneur and is also well-known in the circle, such a position is well deserved for him.
Mu Dong, the dark horse, caused a low cry as usual, just like he went up to attend the commendation meeting. Although many people have seen Mu Dong and know his deeds, his appointment as vice chairman still surprised many people.
Mu Dong secretly rejoiced, fortunately, he was just a deputy, if he had accepted the main position at the beginning, he would have suffered it himself.
Zhang Yuelang grew his mouth, and his face was incredible. Because of Zhao Ran, he had a detailed understanding of Mu Dong. In his eyes, Mu Dong was just an opportunist who barely had a little fame by relying on grandstanding. He never expected that this foundation, which has a deep government background, would appoint such a vice chairman as Mu Dong.
Zhang Yuelang secretly pondered, it seems that this kid has two brushes, which should not be underestimated.
After the appointment, it's time to collect donations.
Li Liqun, secretary of the municipal party committee, took the lead in donating 500 yuan, and several other leaders also donated three or four hundred yuan, and then, on behalf of the city's organs and institutions, Minister Zhang Zhenyi handed over the 1.03 million yuan that had been donated in place to Zhang Jishun, chairman of the board of directors.
Next, Chairman Zhang Jishun pledged 500,000 yuan on the spot.
Then Vice Chairman Mu Dong pledged 200,000 yuan on the spot.
Up to now, the tone has been set, and the bosses on the scene have basically understood how much money they should come up with.
As a result, pledges ranging from 150,000 to 50,000 yuan were quickly transmitted in the microphone of the on-site host and immediately recorded.
To everyone's surprise, Zhang Yuelang of Sunny Group pledged 200,000 yuan. Some people secretly muttered to themselves, in the end, it is a young owner, and they are not merciless when they spend Lao Tzu's money.
Mu Dong faintly felt that this might be Zhang Yuelang's competition.
When the entrepreneurs present completed the pledge, the staff immediately counted the entire pledge amount, 7.19 million yuan.
Zhang Zhenyi finally put his mind at ease, this figure has exceeded the expected 6 million yuan, as long as the funds are in place, this matter can end perfectly.
Thinking of this, he took the microphone and said: "Bosses present, pledging is only the first step in donating, and the important thing is that the funds must be truly in place. Farmers can't afford to wait, are looking forward to this batch of funds to benefit farmers as soon as possible, here, I make a small request, within a week, please ensure that the pledged funds are in place. If the pledged funds have not been in place after two weeks, we will regard it as a fraudulent donation, and the city will report criticism. ”
The words seem polite, but the murderous aura in them can't be hidden. Hmph, wait!
Zhang Jishun hurriedly came out to say: "Minister Zhang, don't worry, I make a statement on behalf of these bosses, within a week, all the funds will definitely be in place, please rest assured." ”
Zhang Zhenyi nodded with satisfaction and said, "After the business is done, let's officially start the cocktail party, please have fun and have fun!"
The music then comes to mind, and several dancers from the PR agency begin to spin in the center of the venue. The waiter shuttled through the crowd with wine glasses on trays, and everyone took the wine glasses and whispered to each other in twos and threes.
Mu Dong chose a glass of juice and drank it slowly. Zhang Yuelang came over with a glass of wine and asked with a smile: "Chairman Mu, don't you drink some wine to cheer up this situation?"
Mu Dong is unhappy in his heart, why are you everywhere?
He responded with a smile: "Mr. Zhang, tea is also intoxicating, why do you need wine, there is no tea here, I have to use juice instead, which can be regarded as the occasion." ”
Zhang Yuelang smiled and said: "Okay, a good tea is also intoxicating, why do you need wine! I have been taught, Chairman Mu has a good attitude! I don't know what kind of mentality Boss Mu has for the next Canton Fair? What are your preparations?"
Mu Dongdao: "The plan is in the people, the success is in the sky, and the people know the destiny of the heavens." We are a small company, and we will be happy to get a little order. ”
Zhang Yuelang laughed when he heard this: "Chairman Mu said that no matter how big or small the company is, it is equal in front of orders, and I believe that Boss Mu will make a lot of gains." ”
After speaking, Zhang Yuelang raised his glass, took a shallow sip of red wine, and turned to leave.
Mu Dong is tired of feeling crooked, Nima is here to demonstrate! You two are divorced, it's my business!
No, you're already divorced, and now you're clamoring to remarry!
Half an hour after the reception, the leaders left one after another. Before Secretary Sun accompanied Minister Zhang to leave, he gave the pass to Mu Dong.
Mu Dong took it and looked at it carefully, the pass was the size of an express delivery document, the front was red, the golden national emblem was printed in the center, and below was a few gilded characters "Lunan Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government Pass", and the back was a photo of the vehicle, as well as the car number and the information of the vehicle owner.
There are a few bosses who know the goods just saw it, and they were envious in their hearts, the pass of the municipal party committee and municipal government is not generally difficult to do, it seems that this vice chairman, although young, but the strength is not small.
The leaders left, the bosses also left one after another, Zhang Jishun and Mu Dong bid farewell to the bosses at the door, shook hands and said goodbye one by one, as the chairman and vice chairman, the last thing is to leave.
There are a few bosses who know to do garlic exports, and when they broke up, they quietly said to Mu Dong: "Boss Mu, if you want to make a move on garlic, you must say hello!"
Mu Dong hurriedly agreed, thinking about selling garlic recently, since you are so popular, then I can rest assured.
When the guests dispersed, Mu Dong said to Zhang Jishun: "Mr. Zhang, I've been too busy lately, so I won't accompany you, my 200,000 yuan will be transferred to the foundation's account in the next two days, and you have to worry about other things!"
After saying that, he drove away.
The chubby Zhang Jishun really couldn't catch up with Mu Dong's footsteps, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "This slippery head." ”
The next work of the foundation is to supervise the receipt of the pledged funds as soon as possible, which is a chore, and it is necessary to call or even come to the door to urge.
However, Zhang Jishun is now quite enthusiastic and happy.
Mu Dong returned to primary school and ate a large bowl of noodles first. Some cold meals were also arranged at the reception, but Mu Dong kept socializing and didn't have time to eat at all, and he was already hungry when he first came back.
After eating, Mu Dong and Xiao Xiao said that they would not return to Quancheng for the time being, and asked Lin Xiaoyuan to pick her up and her mother. Xiao Xiao knew that the price of garlic had continued to rise recently, and Mu Dong was going to start selling garlic, thinking of those thousands of tons of garlic, Xiao Xiao told Mu Dong not to be too tired.
After appeasing Xiao Xiao, Mu Dong then went to explain the matter to his mother, only to see the third uncle come in in a hurry.
"Mu Dong, the price has risen again, 9 pieces of first-class garlic 6, and 8 pieces of second-level garlic 3. ”
Mu Dong was shocked, this is too weird, isn't it?
Now the first-grade garlic has exceeded the expected price in his heart, and the second-grade garlic is still two cents away, so he can't wait any longer, so Mu Dong made a decisive decision to start selling.
He immediately called Zhang Jishun.
"Mr. Zhang, I started selling garlic, do you need it there? I will meet your needs first, and then give the rest to others." ”
Zhang Jishun on the other side was moved, and he said repeatedly: "Yes, yes, Xiao Mu, how many first-grade garlic do you have? How many second-grade garlic?"
Mu Dong didn't answer and asked, "How much do you need?"
Zhang Jishun was shocked when he heard this, it seems that Xiao Mu has left a hand, and what he said when they first met is not true! He also said that he would buy all of them, but at that time the garlic was only how much was a pound? Not to mention three or four thousand tons now, I am afraid that he will not even be able to afford two thousand tons! However, he must buy two thousand tons by smashing the pot and selling iron! Let the finance department immediately borrow from the workers at high interest rates!
After a moment of silence, Zhang Ji said: "Xiao Mu, I need 1,000 tons of first-grade garlic and 1,000 tons of second-grade garlic, and the price is according to this afternoon's price, is it okay?"
Mu Dong said: "No problem, please send someone to deliver it as soon as possible, I will go to the cold storage and wait." ”
Then, Mu Dong asked the third uncle to go to the village to find people, the more the better, even if it was 100 people, and let them rush to the cold storage immediately.
Subsequently, Mu Dong calculated his inventory and sent a text message to several familiar garlic merchants.
"From now on, Dadong Commerce and Trade sells a case of first-class garlic and second-grade garlic, the price refers to the market price on the day of the transaction, and interested parties please come to negotiate. ”
The moment the short message was sent, Mu Dong's phone rang, and an exporter who had met at the venue today called, saying that he needed to purchase 500 tons of second-grade garlic, and Mu Dong immediately agreed to let him arrange the payment as soon as possible.
Then Boss Mu's phone was never disconnected, and the continuous call was all about purchasing garlic.
However, Boss Mu found a situation, except for Zhang Jishun's 2,000 tons and another 500 tons, everyone else is two or three hundred tons or even 100 tons of goods, and it will take some trouble to sell more than 8,000 tons of garlic in cold storage.
Mu Dong was a little anxious, he was different from those exporters. Exporters have their own customers, they have sales channels, and they can eventually sell whatever the price of garlic is.
And he is just a second-class dealer with a huge inventory, and if the garlic is backlogged in his hands, it will be very sad.
Although the situation is very good, Boss Mu has begun to worry a little.
Just as he was thinking about it, the phone rang again, it was Zhang Jishun.
"Xiao Mu, the payment is a total of 35.8 million, of which 30 million has been transferred to your account, you check it, and the other 5.8 million will be paid before 12 o'clock this evening, all in cash, please arrange personnel and prepare to receive it." ”
Mu Dong is very helpless, 5.8 million in cash? Boss Zhang, what are you doing?
However, if you think about it a little, you can understand that it is estimated that the money is not enough, and 5.8 million is temporarily obtained, as for why it is paid tonight, it is worried that the price of garlic will be higher tomorrow.
This old guy, Mu Dong smiled bitterly.
He hung up the phone and called his sister Mu Xiaoxia and asked her to go to the bank to confirm whether the funds had arrived. Then quickly rush to the cold storage.
2,000 tons of garlic, even if each car is loaded with 30 tons, it will be close to 70 cars, and Boss Zhang needs to be transported all this evening in order to avoid price risks.
Later, the workers arrived, the 3,000-ton cold storage was opened, and the workers quickly began to load the trucks.
Half an hour later, there have been more than 70 workers to the cold storage, Mu Dong saw that it was not good, decisively opened the 5000 tons of cold storage, each warehouse door parked two empty cars, one loaded with first-class garlic, one loaded with second-class garlic, more than 70 divided into four groups, each assembled a car.
An hour later, the 4 cars were loaded, and immediately 4 more cars stopped in front of the cold storage and continued to load.
Mu Dong looked at his watch, 4 cars an hour, 70 cars took seventeen or eighteen hours, and now, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon.
Moreover, the physical strength of the workers is not continuous, and the loading will be slower and slower, and the 2,000 tons of garlic will not be finished tonight.
Mu Dong sighed in his heart, this loading is much slower than unloading!
He reluctantly called Zhang Jishun.
"Mr. Zhang, it is absolutely impossible to load 2,000 tons before 12 o'clock tonight, the physical strength of the workers cannot hold on, and the site cannot be tossed. In this way, as long as your funds are in place, tomorrow one day, you pull the garlic away, no matter how the market price rises, I don't raise the price, what do you think? As for today, it will only be loaded until 8 o'clock in the evening, so that the workers can have a good rest tonight. ”
Zhang Ji couldn't help but thank him, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Mu Dong received a call from the boss who purchased 500 tons, asking for an account to pay 8.3 million yuan, and said that he would load the car soon. Mu Dong had no choice but to talk about the current situation of the cold storage, let him load the car the day after tomorrow, and said that as long as the payment can arrive today, the price will not increase the day after tomorrow.
After making the call, Mu Dong asked the workers to rest for a while and told everyone to work overtime until 8 o'clock tonight and take care of dinner at night. The workers were happy, Boss Mu's generosity, and the workers knew.
After the workers rested, they began to continue their work, and Mu Dong went to the restaurant at the door and booked a banquet for the evening. The owner of the restaurant saw that Mu Dong had come to take care of the business again, and he was excited, more than 70 workers, this dinner can make a lot of money.
Mu Dong chatted with the restaurant owner for a few words, and returned to the cold storage to continue to be busy.
Sun Mingfu heard that Boss Mu had started selling garlic, so he hurriedly came over, and with Mu Dong's consent, he began to promote the news of selling garlic in cold storage in his circle, and Uncle Mu also called the customers he often contacted.
Mu Xiaoxia came back from the bank, her lips trembling and told Mu Dong that the 30 million had arrived. Mu Xiaoxia's brain was dizzy, she couldn't say whether she was shocked or numb, she just felt that everything was not so real, which made her a little confused!
30 million! Mu Xiaoxia thought to herself, she would never be able to make so much money in her life!
As a result, Mu Dong waved his hand, "Sister, you have to go to the bank again, there is 8.3 million, and it may arrive in a while." ”
Mu Xiaoxia turned around and left, Mu Dong felt that something was wrong with his sister, so he hurriedly asked his brother-in-law Zhong Guodong to go with him.
Zhong Guodong was carrying the bag with the workers, and when he heard this, he hurriedly accompanied his daughter-in-law away.
Mu Dong changed into work clothes and joined the army carrying bags, but Sun Mingfu was stunned.
Mu Dong just worked happily for a while, and Zhang Jishun, who was like a ball, arrived, and when he saw Mu Dong working, he said with some tears and laughter: "Xiao Mu, do you still use you to do this? The boss's energy should be used for more important things, keep a clear head, you are completely putting the cart before the horse! Hurry down and tell you the right thing." ”
Mu Dong smiled, took off his work clothes, and said to Zhang Jishun: "Mr. Zhang, I don't understand, I call it an exemplary leader." Say, what's the matter?"
Zhang Jishun said: "Of course it's a matter of money, I brought 2 million, you hurry up and find someone to count it, and 3.8 million will be paid off at night." ”
Mu Dong saw that it was only 4 o'clock, and the bank should still have time, so he went to the bank in the town with Zhang Jishun and asked the bank to count the accounts.
As soon as I arrived at the bank, the mobile phone rang, and it was the customer who bought 500 tons of garlic, saying that he wanted to take a look at the garlic and then pay.
This person is a garlic exporter that Mu Dong visited with the help of Liu Jingyun in the past, named Liu Nan. He just heard that Mudong has garlic, but he has never seen it with his own eyes, and for the sake of insurance, it is like taking a look before paying.
Zhang Jishun, who was beside Mu Dong, heard this, snatched Mu Dong's phone and said: "Liu Nan, I'm Zhang Jishun, don't hesitate, Mu Dong has garlic here, hurry up and pay, I regret the price of the province tomorrow." ”
Zhang Jishun's reputation is very good in the circle, and Liu Nan naturally believed his words, and he immediately said that he would immediately ask the financial people to arrange remittances.
Mu Xiaoxia saw Mu Dong come in with a chubby boss and a lot of cash, I heard that it was 2 million, and muttered to herself, it's only 2 million, not much!
Sister Mu has come out of the shock and feels that 2 million is not a lot of money.
After a while, the bank counted 2 million cash and deposited it into Mu Dong's account, and Liu Nan's 8.3 million yuan also arrived.
Mu Dong quietly told his sister that there was still 3.8 million yuan in cash, and Boss Zhang would send it in the evening, so that she could go back to the primary school to prepare it and wait for the count.
Mu Xiaoxia took the order and left, and everyone else went back to the cold storage.
Zhang Jishun looked around, told the person in charge of the loading site in his factory a few words, and left in a hurry.
Mu Dong no longer carried the bag, but walked around and coordinated everywhere.
Xie Donglin and Mu Daodao were busy passing the weighbridge and recording the loading data, and when they saw Mu Dong coming, they greeted him with a happy smile.
The price of garlic has risen wildly, and everyone has invested money in garlic, and anyone can calculate that they must have made a lot of money this time, and their hearts are extremely comfortable.
Liu Nan finally rushed over, and he was already almost there just now.
Mu Dong took him to look around the two cold storages, and Liu Nan finally understood that the young vice chairman of the foundation in front of him was definitely not as simple as it appeared on the surface, these garlic properly made this young man worth more than 100 million.
