Chapter 11 The resurgence is unknown
What does it feel like to be deceived?
It's as if you're in a small boat and wandering smoothly on a calm lake. Suddenly someone deliberately scuttles your boat, leaving you angry, inexplicable, and overwhelmed on a lake that should be calm, that's what it's like to be cheated.
Lao Ma said: "In fact, you should be grateful for being deceived, thank him for teaching you this lesson." ā
The corners of my mouth twitched twice, feeling that my IQ was very hurt, this kind of talk is okay to deceive the little girl, but on our material dog, I must refute: "Well, I don't agree with this statement, thank you for being deceived?" Then give me all the money, I won't mind, just let me lie to you; In this case, can you thank me again? Isn't this a neurotic worldview? ā
Old Ma: "......"
ā¦ā¦
Lao Ma and I cleared the defective products we were deceived into, and the time was already in the second half of the first semester of the college year. This means that we have worked hard for half a year, achieved nothing, and returned to the original point and started anew.
After Lao Ma and I counted the few assets we had left, we were both worried.
The online business has not had much impact, and it is basically the same as before, with orders and busy; But the offline business has been miserable, the rented warehouse has been refunded, the rented store has been refunded, and everything that can be refunded has been refunded anyway; Even only Monkey and Lao Ma's girlfriend remained, as well as her girlfriend's friend, and several work-study classmates were also dismissed; Not only did the previous expansion campaign lose a lot of cash, but the original invitation to everyone to the restaurant for a new store opening banquet turned into a casual meal. With the failure of a major expansion, there is not much liquidity left after filling in various loopholes.
In the end, Lao Ma and I did the math, and it was clear that our funds had returned to the pre-liberation period. I didn't even have the money for the next purchase, and I was so poor that I jingled.
In order to pay the salaries of the employees, Lao Ma and I were forced to invite everyone over to discuss how to start the comeback plan.
"I build a second-hand computer, a second-hand mobile phone, we have experience in this area, the so-called 'familiar place has a view'."
"I also insist on making second-hand computers." Lao Ma's girlfriend held Lao Ma's arm, and weakly echoed Lao Ma's way without assertiveness.
"yes, you can't make a wallet, can you?"
The monkey said meanly, if he wasn't one of the shareholders now, I really wanted to blast him out. In order to reduce the monthly salary distribution and stabilize people's hearts, Lao Ma and I divided part of the shares, and now our team and Lao Ma account for 70% of the shares, and the other three people account for a total of 30% of the shares. While there is an agreement for this distribution, it is a private agreement with essentially zero legal effect.
The monkey knew that I liked the little girl who made the purse in the little workshop, and he also thought that I was distracted and messed up the business.
"I think we can make second-hand laptops, second-hand mobile phones plus a wallet for every successful order, what do you think?"
"I don't agree, the profit of our products is not high, I think it is too luxurious to send souvenirs, this kind of waste style is not good." The monkey objected.
"The boss must have his own reasons for saying this, so it's better to let the boss say the reasons himself." This time, the old horse also felt that he could not guess my idea, although he was confused, he was not as anxious to oppose it as a monkey.
The monkey stared at the old horse, not knowing what he was thinking, but it was hard to hide the disbelief on his face.
"I think the reason why they buy second-hand computers is that this group must be people who are more frugal and know how to save money, so in this basically, if it is a comparison of the same products, I conclude that they will definitely choose the one who has something to give; What do we do for a living? Doesn't it make consumers think of us as soon as they think of similar products? ā
"Makes sense, I agree." Lao Ma is very decisive, what he understands, he can be settled without much effort, this is a kind of businessman's decisiveness.
"I still don't agree, I think this is someone who used his power for personal gain, and wanted to make that woman who made a wallet, so he came up with the idea." The monkey keeps an eye on the finances, and no one knows our finances better than him.
Me: "...... "If it weren't for this kid from our dormitory, I think I'd already be angry, can't I be tactful if I have an opinion?"
Lao Ma glanced at me, his eyes were full of helplessness, which meant that he should not have been allowed to join the group in the first place.
"Well, we are all cultural people, we are fair, just and democratic, how about voting now?" I mentioned yƬ.
"I still don't agree!"
"Why?" I felt my faint anger come up.
"I think, it's better to play less tricks, just do what you used to do, why do you want to do so much?" Under the horrified gaze of everyone, the monkey shrugged his shoulders and spread his hands and muttered to himself. It seems that people must know that he is at odds with me, and he looks like he is doing it against me.
After the meeting, Lao Ma comforted me and said: "Don't be angry, we didn't know that the monkey would be such a thing, if we knew that this kid had no advance or retreat at all, and he would have said and done everything I think' is his worker?" ā
"Indeed, this person didn't see anything in the first six months, but now he has shown his true colors, no wonder no one in our dormitory likes him, it's really a strange flower." I covered my face, I didn't get angry when the business failed, I was deceived miserably, and I didn't get angry, but such a person is really uncomfortable.
I was choked half to death by the damn monkey, and I swore to myself that if I could still run a company, I would never let this kind of self-suffocation rejoin my team! Never!
ā¦ā¦
Mao Dun is available all the time, but as long as people live, then life must go on.
Surprisingly, when we were struggling with the problem of supply. Our original partner, Lao Wu, contacted us for the first time and said that he had prepared a lot of urgently needed accessories for us. We are very grateful for this, after all, we have skipped him as a secondary wholesaler before.
In order to show our sincere cooperation, Lao Ma and I decided to visit, but he made an appointment to a high-end hotel.
"Well, did you come here to give any gifts?" Lao Wu excused himself: "The reason why you skipped me as a second-level wholesaler before is just the essence of a businessman, and businessmen should have pursued maximizing profits, which is understandable, understandable." ā
"Old Prime Minister Wu can hold the boat in his stomach, which makes us really moved, or we will invite this meal." Old Horse Road.
His words make us feel even more ashamed.
"What's so embarrassing? No, no one has to stop me for this meal, I have to invite it! The lean old Wu lay down on the chair and said.
"Then we will be respectful rather than obey."
This meeting, we are quite satisfied, because Lao Wu provided us with accessories from the new, and it seems that a qiÄ returned to normal. With his support, we believe that with our experience and strength, it will not be a problem to quickly come out of the shadow of failure.
But this pleasant atmosphere did not make me happy, because on the surface, we repaired the relationship. And neither side mentioned the guy who bankrupted me and Lao Ma (the guy who lied to us before was also introduced by Lao Wu.) In line with the attitude that there are no permanent friends and no eternal enemies in the business world, there is no barrier to cooperating with him again.
After lunch, Lao Ma and I sat on the bus back to school. Lao Ma couldn't help but say his opinion: "I think Lao Wu is very problematic. ā
"Is there any evidence? We received the goods he sent, and the quality is actually the same as before. ā
"I don't have evidence, it's just a gut feeling, and to be honest, I've also seen his goods, and there is really no problem." Lao Ma said seriously while holding his mobile phone and sending a ** message to his honey.
After Lao Ma said this, I seemed to feel the smell of conspiracy.
"It's okay, don't be suspicious, his goods are the same as before." I comforted him, but then I found that I couldn't make sense of this statement myself, and I muttered to add: "The only problem I feel is that Lao Wu reacts too quickly, and he extended an olive branch to us just as we were about to reorganize our business......"
