Chapter 420: Buying a Car
"No, you don't." Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu hurriedly stopped: "Now that the relationship between me and Zhu Xun is just hot, your words will make my previous efforts in vain." ”
"Yes, they were all deliberately drunk, and they were hot." He Li couldn't help but tease Lai Xiaohu when he heard this.
"There's no way, after all, it's because we're not kind first, and it's understandable that people want to return it." Lai Xiaohu explained: "But yesterday our previous grievances have been written off, and I have learned a lot from Zhu Xun in his deals. So Lai Xiaohu told me about his situation in Zhu Xun: "Now he has taught me almost the entire operation of the logistics company, and the two of us have discussed that we will visit the CEOs of those airlines in commercial cities in a few days." ”
Yes, yesterday Lai Xiaohu made this request to Zhu Xun again, and Zhu Xun did not refuse, at first he promised to be drunk by Lai Xiaohu, but this time Zhu Xun said it when he was completely sober, Lai Xiaohu finally didn't have to worry about Zhu Xun not helping. And Zhu Xun is not only willing to act as a middleman to introduce Lai Xiaohu to those airlines, but also directly tells Lai Xiaohu to let him wait for the good news at home, Zhu Xun will personally contact the people of those airlines here, and wait for Zhu Xun to discuss the date and place of meeting with the other party before notifying Lai Xiaohu.
"Really?" After hearing this, He Li also became happy in her heart, "This is not in vain, boss, your hard work, it's worth it to get drunk twice in a row for the sake of this airline." ”
"I said you're begging for a beating, aren't you?" He Li's words made Lai Xiaohu sound like that, how could there be a strong taste of irony.
"No. People are telling the truth, which time the boss didn't come back with a frame. After saying that, he quickly stood up and ran outside.
But there's one thing that makes Lily right. That is, Zhu Xun's statement today made Lai Xiaohu know that his previous efforts were not in vain, and that today's pretending to be drunk was rewarding. As long as Zhu Xun is willing to help wholeheartedly, Lai Xiaohu believes that he will soon be able to set up his own air logistics company. Lai Xiaohu said that the company would be established within half a year, but half a year is only the fastest time estimated by Lai Xiaohu, otherwise Lai Xiaohu would not have signed a contract with Xunjie Company for half a year, although it was only signed once a month, but the two sides privately said that it would be good for half a year. It's not going to change easily. And at that time, Lai Xiaohu meant that if the Xunjie company of Lejia Supermarket was not formed after half a year, it would continue to renew the contract with Xunjie Company.
Although he said in his heart that it was half a year, in fact, Lai Xiaohu was not very sure about the establishment of an air logistics company. He is confident that he can smash a way out with money. However, it is unclear how long it will take for this road to be opened. It may really be half a year, or it may be a year or even more than a year.
Now with Zhu Xun's guarantee, Lai Xiaohu is completely relieved, and he is confident that the air logistics company will be established within half a year.
In the afternoon, Lai Xiaohu found He Li and told her about the vehicle. "I'm going to meet with the CEOs of those airlines in two days. When the time comes, you have to drive a good car over, and you can't weaken the façade of our Lejia supermarket. ”
The car that Lai Xiaohu is driving now is indeed quite inconsistent with the façade of Lejia Supermarket, the car is not only leased back, but also the key is not a good car, it is a low-end car of about 100,000 yuan from some sellers. In the past, when I rented these cars, I simply hoped to use them as a tool for transportation, and it would not take too long, so Zhang Ying was looking for this kind of low-end car at that time. But now Lai Xiaohu is going to meet and negotiate with others, and the first thing Lai Xiaohu represented in the past was the façade of Lejia Supermarket and Lai Xiaohu's image. This is where other aspects of the car come into consideration. Such as appearance, status, and so on.
The 100,000 car is not less driven by Lai Xiaohu in normal times, but when he goes out to the banquet in two days, he will definitely not be able to drive this kind of car again. You have to drive a high-end and high-end car.
"Why don't I rent another one?" He Li said when he heard this.
"What to rent, we can't buy one for a company as big, and besides, I won't use it this time when I buy it back, and there will be more places to use it in the future." Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu said directly.
"Just buy it, it's not me who spends money anyway." After listening to Lai Xiaohu's words, He Li said directly. Lai Xiaohu is the boss, and whatever he says is what he is.
The cars that Lai Xiaohu drove when he was in Jincheng were quite high-end and high-grade, and they also had a lot of face when they drove out, especially the Bugatti Veyron worth tens of millions, which could attract everyone's attention. However, those cars are usually very fashionable to drive out, and it is not good to drive that kind of car when going out to discuss official business, and there is a big boss who will drive this kind of car when he goes out to discuss business, although they are very expensive.
This time, the car that Lai Xiaohu wants to buy should not only be high-end and high-grade, which can represent the company's façade, but also be more inclined to commercial cars, and have a certain background.
In the afternoon, there was nothing to do, Lai Xiaohu and He Li looked at a lot of cars on the Internet, and after the most choosing, Lai Xiaohu still took a fancy to Audi. It's not that Audi is better than other cars, it's simply that Audi is the highest-end government car in China.
How did Audi develop in China? Isn't it just relying on government procurement? Before the government procured Audi cars as buses, how many people knew about Audi? At that time, everyone only recognized BMW and Daben for high-end cars. However, since the government adopted the Audi car as an official car, Audi has immediately risen in China.
Not only does the government have the largest customer, so that there is stable sales, but more importantly, the government's own leading role is endless. After the government adopted Audi as a commercial car, Audi immediately attracted the attention of people from all over the country, and the Audi car, which no one knew about before, suddenly civilized the whole country.
There is something good at the top and something at the bottom, compared to the ordinary people. The government is the top, and the people represent the bottom. The government uses Audi cars, and the people below naturally like Audi cars.
And what Lai Xiaohu values most is the Audi car. Government cars are indeed able to increase the status of this car in the hearts of ordinary people.
After choosing, Lai Xiaohu took He Li directly to the largest Audi 4S store in the commercial city, because Lai Xiaohu's desire to buy a car is relatively strong, and he doesn't particularly care about the price or anything, so he chose a car not long after entering, Audi A8. There is no need to pick at all, the Audi A series is now mostly official flagship cars, and more importantly, this series is the main target of government procurement. Lai Xiaohu bought Audi for this point, so naturally he will not ignore it. And A8, as the best car in this series, is not selected by Lai Xiaohu, and there is no reason at all.
The sales consultant who followed Lai Xiaohu was a young girl, and it is estimated that the other party had not been working here for a long time. Originally, the other party didn't feel that Lai Xiaohu was such a rich person. It's just that her professionalism made her follow Lai Xiaohu to explain all the models after Lai Xiaohu came in.
However, Lai Xiaohu didn't let the other party say too much, just asked a few questions and Lai Xiaohu directly determined, not only did he want A8, but Lai Xiaohu still wanted the top match. More than two million at once.
looked at Lai Xiaohu and ordered it without blinking. The girl was stunned, she hadn't sold a car for more than a month since she started her official job at the end of the internship, and she didn't expect that if she didn't open it, she would sell a car that cost more than two million yuan as soon as she opened, and the girl began to uncontrollably calculate the commission she could get.
"Hey." Seeing the girl's daze, Lai Xiaohu couldn't help but stretch out his hand and shake it in front of the other party's eyes.
Immediately, the girl came to her senses, and her face turned red, "I'm sorry sir." I was distracted. "It's a taboo in sales to get distracted in the face of customers, but today the girl was a little too surprised. So I couldn't help but think about it.
"It's okay, you can go through the formalities for me, the price, configuration or something is easy to say, the key is that the speed must be fast, it is best to let me get the car within a day or two."
"This," Lai Xiaohu's request suddenly embarrassed the girl, the price and configuration are easy to say here, she can also give Lai Xiaohu a little more discount, but this time is not good to meet the requirements, "Sir, do you know that we also need time to transfer goods for this kind of top-of-the-line car, so can this time be a little more lenient." ”
Although there is an A8 in this store, which is the one that Lai Xiaohu saw before, the configuration is a bit low, and it does not meet Lai Xiaohu's requirements at all.
"Alright then, it's okay to be a day or two late, but you can go as fast as you can, I need a car urgently." Lai Xiaohu didn't embarrass other girls, and it was not easy for them to come out to work, and Lai Xiaohu could understand them.
After signing the contract and paying the deposit, Lai Xiaohu left with Heli, while the girl still looked incredulous with the contract, of course, she also saw the eyes of the colleagues around her on the project. Everyone works in an Audi 4S shop, and they also know that Audi cars sell better, so it is not too difficult to sell a car here as long as the ability is not too poor. However, Audi cars are easy to sell only for low- and medium-priced cars, and high-priced cars, especially for the top ones, are very difficult to buy, and even those top sales consultants may not be able to sell a top A8 in a year.
If it is in a first-tier city such as Beijing, it may be better, and it is relatively simple to think about selling the top cars in those places, because there are many rich people there. However, it is not so easy in the commercial city, after all, it is a second-tier city, and it is only ranked in the middle of the second-tier cities, and the economy is not as good as that of the first-tier cities, and the consumption power is naturally a few grades lower. Moreover, because the commercial city is located in the hinterland of the inland Central Plains, although the economy here is not so developed, the style of extravagance and comparison is not prevalent. Here, the low-to-mid-range models are the most popular.
For this colleague who can't sell a car on weekdays, it is impossible not to be envious of such a big order.
But after being happy, the girl was also worried, and she also knew that it was a matter of celebration to be able to receive Lai Xiaohu's order, but the premise was that she could meet Lai Xiaohu's requirements very well. In terms of the configuration of the car and the price, she can give Lai Xiaohu more discounts, after all, she is her first customer, and she is so easy to speak. doesn't find faults, which also makes her have a good impression of Lai Xiaohu. But in terms of time, it's really hard to deal with.
In the end, the girl had no choice but to ask the old consultant in the store for advice. The other party is a man, and he is also the master after the girl enters the store, so it can be said that the other party took the girl into the line.
But now the relationship between the two is a bit delicate, that is, the girl's master is a little fond of the girl. In fact, the other party is not old, but he is about twenty-six years old, and he entered the industry a few years earlier than the girl. Girls are beautiful and have a good figure, so it is natural for them to be looked at by others. In fact, there are several men in the company who have a crush on girls. It's just that most of them didn't dare to speak, especially when the girl's master obviously showed a good impression of the girl, and the others were even more embarrassed to intervene.
But for this master of his own. The girl didn't mean that. Of course, she thanked the master for her help, but she would not give herself to the other party because of this, in fact, the other party is not the type that girls like at all, and girls still prefer that kind of sunny and cheerful and easy to talk. And also capable men.
This seems to be based on Lai Xiaohu as a template.
Although the girl has turned down several date requests from the master. However, the relationship between the two is okay now, and they have not fallen out because of this. The girl cherishes this friendship between the two parties, and the other party is not willing to give up on it.
"Master, what do you think we should do?" After the end, the girl told the master about Lai Xiaohu's request.
"This," the girl's master is of medium stature, and the key is to have long hair, which is a bit feminine. "You also know that we don't have this kind of car storage in our store at all, if you transfer the goods, you will have the conditions here. It is estimated that it will take ten days and half a month at the earliest. "Cars with top-level configurations like this generally have to be transferred from abroad, but the location of the commercial city is not good, and compared with first-tier cities such as Beijing, they must not be able to compete with them, so even if there are goods, these first-tier cities are generally given priority to deployment.
"Ah, what is this going to do?" The girl was a little overwhelmed when she heard this, "That boss Lai said that there is an emergency, and it is best to be able to arrive in two or three days." ”
"Well," the girl's master bowed his head and pondered, "it's not impossible, it's just a little troublesome." Well, I'll treat you to dinner tonight, and I'll tell you how to do it in detail. It seems that he has a way, but he is unwilling to say it easily, and wants to take this opportunity to ask the girl out to dinner with him.
"This?" The girl hesitated for a moment, and said a little embarrassed: "Tonight is my father's birthday, and I promised him to go back early." Having said that, the girl had apparently rejected the other party's offer. The girl is still very principled on the issue of right and wrong, and she knows that she can't give the other party too much hope, otherwise countless entanglements will wait for her in the future. And she was smart enough to realize that since her master knew what to do, the other old advisors in the store must also know it. Although the master may not help if you don't go, it is the same to ask for help from other old consultants.
"You?" was directly rejected by the girl, the master's face suddenly became gloomy, but at this time, other colleagues also looked at it, although he felt that he had lost face, he didn't dare to be angry with the girl in person.
"Seeing that you can't deliver the goods by then, what should you do if the order is returned?" Dropping a curse word, the master turned and left.
After the other party left, the girl patted her chest to calm down, although the other party was her master, but the other party said this, the girl was also very angry.
After a while, the girl walked to another old consultant in the store, this is a female consultant, in fact, the time she has been in the store is not shorter than the female master.
In the face of the girl's request for help, the female consultant was also a little embarrassed, in fact, everyone is a colleague, this problem is not good if you don't help, but if you help, it is obviously a little offended by the girl's master, the girl and her master have different status in the store.
"Sister, please, tell me if there is any way." Seeing that the other party was a little hesitant, the girl quickly pleaded.
"Well, for everyone's sake, I'll help you." The female consultant hesitated for a moment and felt that everyone was a woman and couldn't be bullied in vain like this, so she decided to help the girl, as for the master who would offend the girl, anyway, the relationship between the two people was not very good, and they couldn't take care of it at this time.
"You forgot we had a car show here some time ago?" The female advisor asked.
"Auto show, of course I remember." The girl hurriedly said. Just a few days ago, there was an auto show held in the convention and exhibition center of the commercial city, and many well-known domestic and foreign brands came to participate in the exhibition, and Audi was naturally one of them. It's just that at that time, the girl was not at the level enough, so she was arranged to stay in the store to watch the store and was unable to go to the auto show. This was also something that the girl especially regretted at that time.
"Then do you know that when we were at the auto show, we exhibited one or two A8 top cars, right?" The female advisor continued.
"I've heard about it, but I haven't been able to see it. And didn't it mean that after the station ended, the car had been transferred back to the capital because it was not sold? The girl said. The car was actually transferred from the capital from the beginning, and if it was not sold, it would naturally be returned to the old owner, so the girl heard that the car was transported to the capital the next day after the auto show.
"Do you want to bring it over again?" The girl asked hesitantly. This is not something that can be done easily. The last time I was able to transfer the car was in the name of the auto show, and it took a lot of effort to do it. Although everyone is an Audi 4S store, it is not a company or a boss, and if it wasn't for the Audi manufacturer to coordinate in the back last time, it may not be able to succeed. And now it's definitely not so easy to transfer again. (To be continued......)
