Chapter 408: Signing the Contract
"Boss Lai, I've thought about the advertising fee, in fact, there is still room for discounts." Looking at Lai Xiaohu, Director He said this sentence leisurely, and this sentence can be regarded as an explanation of Lai Xiaohu's previous efforts.
"Yes, then Xie Lu Xie He, Director He." Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu immediately laughed happily, and then quietly took out a bank card from his bag and wiped it on the table and handed it to Director He, "There are 500,000 in this, which is US dollars." And the card is also handled abroad, if one day Director He goes abroad to play, he can use it directly. ”
500,000 US dollars, converted into RMB at the current exchange rate, is almost 3.5 million. The more than 3 million plus the 8.88 million paid by Lai Xiaohu last night has exceeded 12 million. This price is not small, it is estimated that Director He has never received so much money in his life, but Lai Xiaohu dares to take it out and give it to Director He.
And looking at the bank card that Lai Xiaohu put in front of him, Director He was also very surprised, obviously he didn't expect Lai Xiaohu to give him money, in fact, Lai Xiaohu's appearance last night had exceeded his expectations. But now that Lai Xiaohu has sent $500,000 again, Director He really has nothing to say to Lai Xiaohu.
"Okay, Boss Lai. To be honest, I didn't expect you to give me money at all," happily picked up the bank card, Director He said to Lai Xiaohu excitedly: "Although my old He is not a good person, I still have the righteousness that I should have." Since Boss Lai is so generous, then I can't fall behind you. ”
"I won't say much else, just this advertisement. You can directly ask someone from your company to come to us to negotiate the contract, and I will not only let you be the first to go online, but I will also charge you more advertising fees. I won't even give you any discounts that should be there. ”
Hearing Director He's words, Lai Xiaohu's heart suddenly burst into joy, this effect simply exceeded his expectations, well, it's just great. Just a few words from Director He, then his more than 10 million dollars are worth it.
"Actually, Boss Lai, I was very surprised that you were willing to spend more than eight million yuan to auction off that woman last night. I've been there with other bosses before you, all of them asking me to give me less money. I brought them there to see what they were like. I will be as generous to them as they appear to be there. It turns out that they are all far worse than your boss Lai, and the best one before you only spent more than three million on it. Most of the others are about hundreds of thousands, and some even feel sorry for the money after the worst, and they don't even want advertising. Tell me how much advertising money I'm going to deduct from their performance? ”
Once you're in control of your ads. There are not a few people who come to ask Director He for help. Except for those who came by relying on connections, Director He is not easy to do. Most of the rest of him will take the postgraduate examination for each other, and in these various tests, how generous others are to Director He, he will also be generous to the other party, which correspondingly means how much Director He is willing to reduce their advertising fees.
Lai Xiaohu's appearance last night was the most generous Director He had ever seen, and more than eight million eyes were spent without blinking. At that time, Director He thought in his heart that this time he must be worthy of Lai Xiaohu's dedication. And who knows that Lai Xiaohu hasn't played yet, which gave another 500,000, and it's still dollars. I was excited, and Director He said the previous promise to Lai Xiaohu, not only did he not add advertising fees. In addition, a part of the advertising fee will be waived.
Under normal circumstances, it is estimated that he would never say such a thing, but now he is in the middle of his temperament. There are not so many worries in my head anymore.
came out to get together, Lai Xiaohu got the answer he wanted most, and when the time was almost up, he and Director He separated, and returned directly to the hotel, Lai Xiaohu couldn't wait to tell Liu Xiaoxiao what he had gained.
"Really?" Hearing this, even Liu Xiaoxiao was shocked, in her opinion, even if she was looking for a relationship, she couldn't get such a big discount, "You wait, I'll calculate how much money we saved this time?" ”
Then Liu Xiaoxiao began to calculate. This time, the advertisement of Roca Supermarket is an all-weather advertisement, and according to the agreement, the advertisement will be broadcast a total of five times during the prime time of each period, and each advertisement is often 25 seconds. According to the normal advertising price, Lejia Supermarket booked three months of advertising, and the total cost added together was: more than 49 million, almost 50 million. Previously, Director He asked to pay three times the advertising fee, so that the total advertising fee that these advertising Lejia supermarkets needed to pay reached 150 million.
More than 150 million advertising dollars is indeed too much, after all, this is not the advertising of the time period before the weather forecast every day. The advertising standard of Chinese TV at that time of year can indeed reach hundreds of millions, but the other advertising values are far from this comparison.
Liu Xiaoxiao thought that 150 million advertising dollars was too much, so she thought about it before telling Lai Xiaohu the idea of giving up China TV. But now, with Lai Xiaohu's actions, the advertising fees they need to pay will be far less than 50 million, of which the money saved has reached 100 million.
In order to achieve this effect, Lai Xiaohu has paid a lot, more than 10 million. But compared with the 100 million saved, more than 10 million is worth it.
The next day, Lai Xiaohu took Liu Xiaoxiao and two other assistants to Director He's office in person, and came again, Liu Xiaoxiao stood behind Lai Xiaohu and did not come out to greet Director He. And Director He didn't seem to see Liu Xiaoxiao, and he didn't look at her.
To be honest, after going back yesterday afternoon, Director He, who had calmed down, thought about it, but felt that he was too impulsive at that time. But since the man has already said it, he must not go back. So even if he regretted it a little in his heart, Director He didn't show it at all today.
After Lai Xiaohu came, he personally accompanied Lai Xiaohu to talk, and then instructed a few people to negotiate a specific contract with Liu Xiaoxiao and them. According to Director He's previous instructions, those people on the TV station offered a 70% discount on the normal advertising price. Hearing this, Liu Xiaoxiao was overjoyed. It seems that the other party's discount is far beyond his imagination. However, she didn't continue to bargain, Lai Xiaohu had already ordered when she came before, as long as the price given by the other party was lower than the normal price. Then even if Director He kept his promise. In this case, he also asked Liu Xiaoxiao not to be too entangled in the price, and could directly agree to the other party.
The other party offered a seven-fold discount, but the strength of this discount made Liu Xiaoxiao no longer need to bargain. Now Lai Xiaohu and Director He are completely competing to see who is more generous, if they continue to bargain with others, they will inevitably look a little petty, which will destroy the contest between Lai Xiaohu and Director He.
At this time, the most important price of the contract is the least concern of both parties. And some other details, Liu Xiaoxiao quickly reached a consensus with the other party. After that, the two parties drafted the contract on the spot, and then signed it directly under the witness of Xiaohu and Director He. The contract comes into force.
"Director He, the money will be credited to your account at noon today." Before leaving, Lai Xiaohu said to Director He.
After that, Lai Xiaohu drove the vehicle provided for them by the Beijing Region and left here and went directly to the bank, a VIP. There are special treatments everywhere you go. There are no queues at all. With the bank arranging a dedicated service, the transfer was completed quickly.
"Thirty-four million, this time the ad is really worth it." After leaving the bank, Lai Xiaohu sighed.
"yes, this time the ad is really worth it. But if you want to say that you are still the boss, you are amazing, and the original advertising fee of 150 million has been reduced to more than 30 million. By Lai Xiaohu's side, Liu Xiaoxiao couldn't help but praise Lai Xiaohu.
"That's right, boss. How did you do that? Later, Liu Xiaoxiao asked Lai Xiaohu curiously.
The Buddha said. Can't say. Can't say. Biting his fingers, Lai Xiaohu smiled and got into the car.
For Director He, Lai Xiaohu can't say that he is a good person, but Lai Xiaohu can't say that he is a bad person, after all, the other party gave Lai Xiaohu help. Others can blame Director He, but Lai Xiaohu cannot.
"I wonder what will happen to you?" When leaving, Lai Xiaohu thought in his heart.
After solving this matter, Lai Xiaohu returned to Jincheng. But Liu Xiaoxiao stayed, although China TV has done it, but she still needs to continue to negotiate with other news media.
The publicity of Roca Supermarket is mainly divided into two types: national publicity and regional publicity. Among them, Liu Xiaoxiao is mainly responsible for contacting those propaganda media with wide influence in the country to focus on the national publicity of Lejia supermarket in the future. Considering that the propaganda of the national concentration is too model and not detailed enough, in order to deepen the influence and coverage of Lejia supermarket, the publicity of each region and province is more important.
Therefore, when Liu Xiaoxiao began to go to the whole country to publicize, each region also had to contact some influential TV stations, newspapers and other media organizations in its own province to discuss propaganda matters. Compared with Liu Xiaoxiao, the work they face in this area is relatively simple, and it is much simpler and easier to negotiate with regional news media and negotiate with those big news media.
Lai Xiaohu, who returned to Jincheng, was not in a hurry to leave, and now the things that need him and Zhang Ying to be personally responsible for in Shangdu have been almost done, and the rest of the time there is no difference between the two of them in Jincheng and in Shangcheng, so the two of them stayed and sat in Jincheng to stabilize the overall situation.
A lot of things have happened in Jincheng during this period of time, and the only thing related to Lai Xiaohu is Gu Jianfeng, Gu Gang's son, who he hasn't remembered for a long time.
After several months of trial, Gu Jianfeng was finally sentenced, the death penalty, and it was carried out immediately. Gu Jianfeng's ending today may have been pushed by others behind, but in the end, he still died on the wrong things he had done before.
Gu Jianfeng's matter could only cause a small ripple in Lai Xiaohu's life, and after hearing the news from Captain Li, he turned to tell Yin Shuirou about Gu Jianfeng's final fate. Maybe Yin Shuirou will be very happy, Lai Xiaohu thought to himself after hanging up the phone.
However, Lai Xiaohu was not by Yin Shuirou's side, so he didn't know that he was wrong. After learning from Lai Xiaohu's phone call that Gu Jianfeng was sentenced to death, Yin Shuirou did not feel proud of Gu Jianfeng's ending, and even she was a little grateful to Gu Jianfeng. Although Gu Jianfeng had caused her a lot of damage, it was the same if there was no Gu Jianfeng. Maybe her relationship with Lai Xiaohu has long become a stranger.
Like Lai Xiaohu, Yin Shuirou calmly accepted Gu Jianfeng's ending, and even his family did not notify him. Then she got back to work.
In Jincheng, Lai Xiaohu and Zhang Ying remotely commanded the progress of each region, and now compared with the previous few days, they have only advanced a little bit in terms of progress, and there is no obvious progress. A few days ago, recruitment was going on in various regions, and recruitment is still going on. A few days ago, everyone was negotiating about buying a storefront, and these days they are still talking about buying a storefront. The only difference may be that according to Lai Xiaohu's instructions, they have already begun to communicate with the decoration company. As long as the store buys it. The renovation work can be carried out immediately.
In his free time, Lai Xiaohu began to discuss one thing with Zhang Ying, that is, to move the headquarters of Lejia Supermarket from Jincheng to Shangdu.
In the past, Lejia Supermarket was set up here because Lai Xiaohu and Zhang Ying both went to school in Jincheng. And after leaving school, they have been working hard in Jincheng, which can be regarded as their second home. In the past, Lai Xiaohu and Zhang Ying also thought about placing their headquarters in Jincheng all the time. Although you may not be able to stay at home all the time, considering that the transportation is convenient now, the distance from Jincheng to Shangdu is not very far. And everyone is used to the existence of Tsujo as a headquarters. So Lai Xiaohu never mentioned such a thing before.
But now, with Lai Xiaohu placing the planting center in the commercial city. This question has to be reconsidered. The planting center is located in the commercial city, so the production department responsible for production and the transportation department responsible for transportation will inevitably need to be relocated to the commercial city as a whole in the future. Production and transportation should not be too far away from the actual planting center, otherwise the work will easily become disjointed.
Although the rest of the departments do not have to move to the commercial city, if the office is too far away from the planting center, there is always a feeling of being out of control. Especially for Lai Xiaohu and Zhang Ying, Shangdu is their hometown, and now that the planting center has moved there, it is better to set up the headquarters there.
After Lai Xiaohu and Zhang Ying discussed, they both agreed in their hearts to move the headquarters to the commercial city. However, considering that the current employees of Roca Supermarket are mainly local employees in Jincheng, these employees may be resistant to going to work in other places at that time. And after all, Jincheng is much more developed than the commercial city. Transferring from a first-tier city to a second-tier city makes many employees who like the bustling city of Tianjin feel uncomfortable.
The relocation of the company is a major event, and it cannot be done just by saying it, and there will definitely be a lot of problems in it at that time. The two of them did not rashly announce the decision, but planned to wait for this period of time to ventilate in private to see what everyone's attitude towards the company's relocation was?
In the days that followed, good news came one after another. That is, there are already a few large districts that have taken care of the storefront. Needless to say, these regions are mainly concentrated in the central and western provinces, which only need to open branches in the provincial capital, and because the economy here is not particularly developed, even the provincial capital often only needs two or three branches. With a small workload, they make rapid progress in any work.
This time, it was not surprising that these provinces were the first to complete the work, because the other work in the past was usually done by these teams first.
Since the decoration company has been contacted before, after the store is in hand, the decoration work in these provinces will also start immediately. Considering that the monopoly of the decoration industry is too strong, few decoration companies can enter the business and spread to the whole country, so Lai Xiaohu did not ask the national decoration to be carried out uniformly, but let each region find its own local decoration company. As for the decoration style, it is still decorated in accordance with the consistent style of Lejia supermarket, which is green, healthy and environmentally friendly.
At this point, Lai Xiaohu knew that the expansion was about to progress to the most advanced stage. After the new store is renovated, as soon as the staff is in place and Lai Xiaohu supplies vegetables, it seems that they will be ready to open.
At this time, Lai Xiaohu was inevitably a little anxious, and the progress of each region was getting bigger and bigger, which was completely unfavorable to the realization of Lai Xiaohu's goal of opening on the same day. And in addition to this, each region is obviously lagging behind in the recruitment process, even if it has begun to decorate a few regions, the recruitment of personnel has not yet been fully in place. I'm afraid that after the new stores in the regions where the progress is faster have been renovated, their personnel may not be fully in place, and the training work has not yet begun. Even when the new store is ready, they will have to postpone the opening. It seems that it can be opened after all, but it can't.
"I've got to rush it." Lai Xiaohu thought in his heart. After that, Lai Xiaohu and Zhang Ying discussed, and the two of them found out the slowest progress of the regions, one of them was responsible for the work of half of the regions, and the two of them personally spent a lot of time guiding them, especially for some things in the regions that needed to be discussed for a long time before they could be decided, and the two of them decided the matter after a simple discussion. With the participation of two people, these slower regional efforts are slowly catching up.
"Li Min, your work needs to be speeded up too." When he was free, Lai Xiaohu called Li Min. At present, the progress of the work of the Soviet Province in charge of Li Min has always been in the middle, and it is not fast, and it is certainly not slow. Especially considering that the Jiangsu Province region that Li Min is responsible for is the one with the largest workload among the more than 20 new regions, it is already very good that Li Min can bring the work of Suzhou Province to the middle. But even so, Lai Xiaohu still urged Li Min, he hoped that Li Min could be faster. (To be continued......)
