Chapter 6: A new beginning requires the height of the platform and the courage to rebound

Just one day before Cordula came to Shanghai to attend the exhibition, a German company proposed to the second-generation head of Defung, Mr. Bettag, and the management team in the conference room of Defunne's German headquarters, that they wanted to take the general representation of Defeng in China. The old gentleman did not ask any questions during the whole process, listened very carefully, and when they finished their introduction, he said very firmly: "Your briefing is very good, thank you very much!" However, the person who gave us morality to do the Chinese market must be a Chinese, and this person will appear soon! ”

When Cordula decided to let Aimee do the Chinese market, she took a lot of photos of Aimee. When she returned to Germany and reported to Mr. Bettag, she showed him the photo.

"Yes, yes, it's her! The person I'm talking about is her! The old gentleman pointed to Aimee in the photo, very excited. Cordula knows that Mr. Bettag's style is one of trusting instincts. Although he is the second-generation leader, the brand of Defeng is only well-known in Germany in his hands, and his judgment of things has a sense system and decision-making ability beyond ordinary people.

With the support of the boss, signing the agreement becomes a matter of course. Cordula received an email from Aimee: unfortunately, the import and export company she worked for did not agree to be the agent of Defeng, and she planned to set up her own company to do this. Ms. Ning said in the email that she understood that this was a very risky decision for Defeng: to hand over the entire Chinese market of a top German brand to an entrepreneur who had never done business before, and she could neither promise how many sales nor how much financial protection, but she would go all out. It will take some time to register a new company, so in order not to delay the time, place an order first.

Cordula immediately replied: We are not interested in the company with any name, but you with the name of Aimee, as long as you do it, we will support it! Our goods are shipped from Germany to Shanghai, it will take nearly 50 days at sea, in order to reduce your pressure, we give you the account period, and wait for you to receive the goods, and then pay. You need market support, tell me, I'll do my best!

When Aimee saw this email, she had only one thought in her heart: go all out!

Starting a company has become a top priority.

Polly called Aimee: "I didn't even know that Ma Jun was so unreliable!" It turned out that Ma Jun himself called Polly and said that since this girl is so capable and ambitious, there is no need to look for him.

"Let me introduce you to another friend, he used to be the creative director of Meiao Shanghai, he just started his own business, opened an advertising agency, you meet him and ask him how he got it." Polly This is really called helping people to the end, when she saw that Ma Jun had released Ning Qian pigeon here, she immediately helped her find a way to solve it.

The first meeting with Zhong Ming was at Starbucks in Lomei City. According to the joint code, Ning Qian quickly found and recognized him. This guy wears a particularly crisp white shirt, his hair is neatly trimmed and exquisite, and he doesn't look like a creative person at all, but has the restraint, composure and meticulousness of a financial person. When he got up to greet Ning Qian, he was very polite, speaking softly and slowly, and he introduced to Ning Qian the process of opening his company: it turned out that Nanhui had just established a particularly small economic development zone and tried to attract investment, he gave his contact information to Ning Qian, and said that he would greet the person responsible for investment registration in the development zone.

His conversation, attitude and other aspects made Ning Qian feel that this Zhong Ming was really a humble gentleman and an elegant person, the only thing that felt particularly strange was that he wore a pair of sunglasses the whole time, Ning Qian was used to looking at each other's eyes when talking to people, but this buddy's eyes were hidden behind dark glass, so that Ning Qian couldn't see his expression and couldn't judge his thoughts, until he got up to say goodbye, Ning Qian didn't see him have any intention of taking off his glasses. When the two of them got off the elevator, Ning Qian finally couldn't help but ask, "Zhong Ming, can you let me see what you look like?" Otherwise, the next time we see each other, I won't recognize you, and you think I don't care about you. Zhong Yan came back to his senses: "Oh, I just said something was wrong, it turned out that I forgot to take off my sunglasses, so I said why are you so dark." ”

Zhong Yan, who took off his sunglasses, has clear eyebrows, a high nose and thick eyebrows, which is very attractive, and he is definitely very outstanding in the crowd.

"Okay, I recognize you, you can put on your sunglasses." As soon as Ning Qian's voice fell, the two of them laughed at the same time.

"Oh, I forgot to explain: I just recently had laser surgery for myopia and am recovering from it, so I had to wear sunglasses, not because I didn't mean to be cool." Zhong Ming when he said this was not cool at all, and he seemed a little silly.

"You have registered a new company, do you need advertising services? That's just looking for me! Zhong Ming seemed to mention it casually, behind this sentence, he had brewed the whole idea, and he was embarrassed to say it until he was embarrassed, now that he can talk together, what should be said will naturally come out: "Since everyone is just beginning, why don't you help each other and cooperate together?" ”

"We will definitely have advertising investment, but you can't charge me too expensive, after all, it's a small business that has just started." This Zhong Ming really doesn't look like a pure creative, but in such a small talk, he pulled a customer, and Ning Qian couldn't help but look at him with admiration.

After docking with Mr. Zhang, who was in charge of investment promotion in Nanhui Economic Development Zone, Ning Qian hurried to visit. It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and without a company, business cannot be carried out. The China Merchants Office has a very small office next to the Bailianjing long-distance bus station. "We Shanghainese people like to find ways to stay in the government and big companies, and no one wants to open their own company. Now that the state encourages the development of the private economy, our investment promotion work has just begun, and it is very difficult to do it. Mr. Zhang was blunt.

Mr. Zhang asked Ning Qian what he was going to do, chatting and chatting, especially in love, Mr. Zhang said excitedly: "It has been less than half a year since I started investment promotion here, and among the bosses I have seen, you are really the most thoughtful and motivated!" We must support you well! He walked up to the four clerks and explained: "You recognize this Boss Ning, in the future, the affairs of her business are all the most important and priority, you give her to hurry up!" The four eldest sisters said yes one after another.

"We have never had such a young beautiful boss here, not only Mr. Zhang, we are also willing to help you, I am happy to see you!" Sister Zhou, the director in charge of execution, said with a smile.

The first step in registering a company: the name of the enterprise is checked, and each batch can be seven names according to the requirements. Ning Qian was very attentive and thoughtful about the seven most satisfying, which was even more attentive than naming his son at that time, and reported it with great anticipation, but the whole army was wiped out, and none of them could be passed. Seven more, and once more annihilation; Seven more, still won't work. At this time, there is no way to think about any meaning, taste, and value, as long as you can pass it, you can't wait to call the dog leftover, but Sister Zhou said: "The dog must not pass!" "What a breakdown...... Seven more came, and finally, the twenty-eighth name, "Huanzhong", passed.

Next, Sister Zhou can advance according to the process, and Ning Qian hurriedly contacted Xiao Xing, who had made an appointment at the exhibition. Xiao Xing said before that their company has an annual turnover of more than 500 million yuan and has an office in Pudong. Ning Qian made an appointment with them to be there at ten o'clock in the morning the next day.

On the way to Pudong, Ning Qian received a call from Peter, saying that when he asked her out for coffee a few days ago, Mr. Li, who introduced her to him, was actually the managing director of a fund company in Lujiazui, and they were recruiting marketing directors. Now Mr. Li and his company are very satisfied with Aimee's resume and ability, and as long as she agrees, she can join the company immediately.

"The salary is three times that of the excellent family, and the company is equipped with a special driver and a special car, and provides housing subsidies. Aimee, you really have to consider this opportunity, although this fund company has just been established, but it has a deep background, and this industry is more promising than FMCG! ”

Ning Qian told Peter that he planned to start his own business. "What? Start your own business? That's a waste, isn't it? You have such good qualifications, it is in the golden age of the development of large companies and large platforms, why should you trap yourself in a small business, so hard? Aimee was very much with Peter's analysis and guidance, but she wanted to give it a try for two years.

"Okay, then let's make an appointment, two years, two years later, either I will sell you again, or you will become my customer, and I will help your company find someone." Peter is really good at business!

Ning Qian found the address that Xiao Xing said, but found that it was not like the office space at all, and called over, Xiao Xing actually said that they were now in Putuo again, if she had to see them, she had to go over immediately, and they were going to leave for Wenzhou at eleven o'clock. Ning Qian quickly turned around and ran to the subway station. In the deep winter of Shanghai, it was cold and windy outside, but Ning Qian was sweating profusely. There are so many people in the subway, so many that someone will carry you into the carriage without moving at all; The popularity inside is like a steamer, which makes Ning Qian sweat even more, and she is close to people, and she doesn't even have room to take off her clothes. The outside is a thick coat, and the inside is soaked underwear. When she was finally carried out of the carriage, someone stepped on her so hard that she screamed in pain. Ning Qian suddenly felt a little sympathetic to herself: "Why am I suffering?" I am almost thirty years old, and the previous working environment was good, but now I don't want to put the high-end office buildings and driver's cars in Lujiazui, and I am so embarrassed to squeeze the subway here, how a failure my life is! ”

But after only a few minutes of hesitation, she said to herself: "It's because you are not yet thirty years old, so you should endure hardships and challenge yourself to see if there is a greater possibility." If you don't throw yourself back to the ground, how can you have the motivation to bounce back? Moreover, you make toys for Xiao Lun, can you bear to let your baby play with that kind of toy with cut fingers again? If you don't have the ability, make sure your baby has good toys to play with; If you have greater skills, let more children have good toys to play with. ”

Thinking about it like this, I cheered up and went to the Putuo Business Building that Xiao Xing said with confidence.

This is a very old looking hotel turned office building, each company, is a guest room, with simple tables and chairs, and long mottled sofas. "It's not my subjectivity, this look, no matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like a company with a turnover of more than 500 million." Ning Qian thought to herself.

When Xiao Xing saw her, he was also stunned for a moment: "Miss Ning, I didn't expect you to really find it." ”

"Yes, when you were at the exhibition, you said so enthusiastically that you wanted to be a German agent, and we also made an appointment to meet again, of course I want to visit you." Ning Qian decided not to tell them that she was new to the industry.

"At that time, you said that your company has a turnover of more than 500 million yuan a year, and I was very impressed, so I wanted to come and visit and learn to see how you do it." Ning Qian still wanted to understand the scale they were talking about.

Xiao Xing was obviously embarrassed, and exchanged glances with Mr. Hu, who had a round face opposite: "Ah, yes, yes, our scale is still very large, but our headquarters is in Wenzhou, and we just have an office in Shanghai." ”

"You just said that you would go back to Wenzhou at 11 o'clock today?" Ning Qian asked.

"Yes, yes, I'm leaving soon." Xiao Xing replied quickly.

"That's okay, if you leave now, I'll buy a ticket to Wenzhou early tomorrow morning, and I'll visit your headquarters and study hard." Ning Qian's persistence really shocked Xiao Xing and Mr. Hu: "Oh, Miss Ning, why do you have to work so hard? All the planes that go to Wenzhou are small planes, and there is only one flight a day, so don't go. ”

"It's okay, you're doing so well, I still hope to have a chance to ask you for advice." Aimee's gentle, polite, but firm attitude made Xiao Xing, Mr. Hu and the other two look at each other.

Why did Ning Qian insist so much on going to them? Why do Xiao Xing and Mr. Hu keep dodging?
