Chapter 199: Character Explosion
The next few days went exceptionally well.
The effect of this Dubai exhibition is completely different from the previous Canton Fair or Shanghai exhibitions.
There were a lot of visitors, but most of them were locals, who came by with their families to see the latest concept cars from the major car companies, and then stopped by other pavilions.
The mechanical parts hall is obviously not what they are interested in, and most people will not go there at all, even if someone occasionally visits the mechanical parts hall, it is likely that they will just take the children to get to know the parts inside the car.
There are very few real buyers, and even fewer are sitting down to ask for a quote.
Lin Yao couldn't send out twenty catalogs after standing in the aisle all day, and he was incredibly leisurely!
Still, she didn't get a chance to walk around the booth either, as she was alone at the booth.
Gradually, she got used to it, and when someone brought the children by, she would take the initiative to greet them and give them some snacks or chocolates.
The children were all surprised and shouted at her, "Thank you!" (Thanks!) )
She replied heartily, "You are welcome!" (You're welcome!) )
Lin Yao would do this for two reasons:
First of all, because there are no customers, it is too boring, she talks a few words with the Arab children, and it is better to pass the time than to stand stupidly all the time;
Secondly, because Lin Yun overestimated the popularity of the Dubai exhibition, she bought too many snacks, fruits, and chocolates, and the two of them couldn't finish eating them as meals.
Therefore, Lin Yao has always done this.
Lingyun's booth has naturally become the most "popular" (the most popular among children) booth in the entire mechanical parts hall.
Just after sending away a large family, Lin Yao took out some snacks from the box and put them back on the plate, especially carefully arranging the chocolates.
This is done with one purpose: to look good.
Speaking of the question of good looks, Lin Yao couldn't help but sigh.
She originally thought that Arabs were dark, fat, and unsightly, but in this time, she had completely changed her outlook.
The skin color of Arabs is actually similar to that of Chinese people, only slightly darker, but their facial features are more profound, their hair color is darker and brighter, their eyebrows are thick and deep, and their eyelashes are particularly dense and long.
Especially the children here, with bun faces and big eyes, are particularly painful!
Just as she was thinking about it, she suddenly heard someone say to her, "Excuse me? May I have a catalogue?” (Excuse me, can you give me a catalog?) )
Lin Yao turned around and found that it was a dark, chubby, about forty years old, with a cute smile.
“Sure!” Lin Yao looked at him sweating profusely and said, "You may have a seat!" (Of course!) You can sit back and watch. )
The customer had a look of surprise on his face, "Ahhh, greatest!" Thank you!” (Great!) Thank you! )
Then I can't wait, sit down with my ass.
There is no real winter in Dubai, and even in December, the maximum temperature during the day can reach more than 30 degrees, so people here also blow air conditioning in winter.
To be honest, the temperature in the exhibition hall is a bit low, at most twenty degrees, and Lin Yao must wear long sleeves to not feel cold.
The customer in front of him was sweating profusely, which was not unrelated to the tightly wrapped white robe on his body, but the main reason was that he was too fat.
THE CLIENT'S FACIAL FEATURES ARE VERY THOUGHTFUL, BUT WHEN A PERSON IS 180CM TALL AND WEIGHS 180KG, IT NO LONGER MATTERS HOW HE LOOKS.
The chair was originally not small, but when he sat on it, the effect was similar to that of an adult sitting on a small chair in the kindergarten, which was inexplicably joyful.
While reading the catalog, the customer casually stretched out his large plush hand, quickly touched a chocolate from the plate, peeled it off, and put it in his mouth.
The client's movements are extremely fast and agile, which is seriously inconsistent with his round figure.
However, this scene did not escape Lin Yao's eyes, she could see it clearly.
In fact, Lin Yao was stunned by the customer's behavior, she really wanted to tell the other party that these chocolates are put here for the customer to eat, and you don't need to do it at all!
The customer casually asks, "How much is this cover?" (How much does this lid cost?) )
Lin Yao then returned her attention to the product and replied, "$50/PC on the basis of FOB Shanghai, MOQ 200PCS." (Unit price is 50 meters, delivery at Shanghai port, minimum order quantity is 200 pieces.) )
The smile on the customer's face stiffened slightly for some reason.
He reached out again, took a piece of chocolate, peeled it off, stuffed it into his mouth, and said vaguely, "How many pieces can be loaded in a 40 feet container?" (How many products can fit in a 40ft container?) )
There are usually two types of 40ft containers, 40ft ordinary containers and 40ft high-height containers.
40-foot ordinary container: the internal volume is 11.8M * 2.13M * 2.18M, the gross weight of the distribution is generally 22 tons, and the volume is 54 cubic meters.
40-foot heightened container: the internal volume is 11.8M * 2.13M * 2.72M, the gross weight of the distribution is generally 22 tons, and the volume is 68 cubic meters.
The shipping costs are the same for both containers.
The engine cover that the customer asked about is made of aluminum, which is a large volume and light weight of the goods, and the choice of a 40-foot high-height container is the most cost-effective, but it is not sure whether the other party needs so much at the moment.
Lin Yao made a quick calculation in his heart, and replied calmly: "3600PCS for a 40'contaniner and 4500PCS for a 40HQ." (A 40-foot ordinary container can hold 3600PCS, and a 40-foot heightened container can hold 4500PCS.) )
The customer had already peeled off the third Ferrero by this time, and he nodded with satisfaction, "OK, I will need 2containers, I mean 2x40HQ." (Okay, I need two containers, I mean, two 40ft high containers.) )
That's 9,000 engine covers, worth 450,000 meters, which can be regarded as a big order!
No wonder Lin Yao showed such an expression when he told him the MOQ.
He must have been despising him just now, right?
Two hundred?
Labor and management want two cabinets!
Wait, such a big list was casually placed for her?
Lin Yao always felt that it was too sudden and a little unreal!
Could it be that her character has exploded?
The customer flipped through the catalog, then the business card case on the table, and asked, "May I have your name card?" (Can you give me a business card?) )
Lin Yao pointed to the business card on the catalog that had been bound with a stapler, "Here's the name card." (There's a business card here.) )
For the Nth time, the customer reached for the plate with the chocolates, and while he ate it deliciously, he said, "I mean, your name card." (I'm talking about, your business card.) )
Lin Yao was stunned.
Lin Yao, as an internal staff, does not have her own business card, she has participated in the exhibition three times, and she uses Chairman Qin's business card.
Originally, she didn't think there was anything wrong with that.
Now, she suddenly thought of a possibility, Lin Yun and Chairman Qin always arranged for her to participate in the exhibition, could it be because she was an in-house officer? Not only does there be no commission, but even the business card is not worthy of the back office?
After Lin Yao recognized this fact, her face was slightly hot.
While she was stunned, the client had already eaten a few chocolates and even quietly stuffed a few into his pocket.
Lin Yao naturally saw it, but she didn't care about it, and she didn't care about it at all!
She confesses to her clients, "I don't have my own name card, but you may have my mobile number." (I don't have my own business card, but I can give you my mobile number.) )
Lin Yao knew that she could tell the client that today was the last day of the exhibition and that my business card had run out of excuses, but she didn't want to deceive people and didn't bother to do it!
Lin Yao took the initiative to give the customer her own mobile phone number, on the one hand, it is normal to leave a mobile phone number for important customers, and on the other hand, she can show her sincerity in cooperating with the other party in this way.
The customer happily took out his business card and handed it to Lin Yao, "Ok, I understand, write down your mobile number here." (Okay, I understand, write your mobile number here.) )
Lin Yao naturally did so, she wrote her name and mobile phone number very seriously, as well as MSN, then blew it, and took a napkin, covered it gently, sucked off the excess water, and made sure that the handwriting was dry before handing over the business card to the customer.
The customer peeled off the chocolate in his hand, put it in his mouth, and then took the business card from Lin Yao's hand as if nothing happened.
Seeing the dry handwriting on it, he grinned and smiled with satisfaction, then he took out another business card and handed it to Lin Yao, "Here's my name card." (Here's my business card.) )
Lin Yao had never seen anyone who loved chocolate as much as the customer in front of him, his expression and his actions were clearly more exaggerated than those children just now!
Lin Yao was amused by him, "Thank you Mr. Hossein。 (Thank you, Mr. Hossein.) )
Hossein smiled too, revealing two rows of snow-white teeth at her, "Thank you!" bye-bye!” (Thank you and goodbye!) )
He waved his hand, then suddenly turned around, snatched the last few chocolates from the plate on the table, quickly slipped them into his pocket, and left satisfied.
Lin Yao noticed that Hossein came empty-handed, and he didn't even take a catalog, including Ling Yun's.
It's not hard to understand why Hossein was so fat, he had to walk with his bare hands so hard, how could he walk around the pavilion with a stack of catalogs?
By the way, Hossein is already so fat, his family shouldn't allow him to eat so many chocolates and other sweets, right?
******
When Lin Yun came back, Lin Yao was packing up his clutter.
Today is the last day of the exhibition, and in just over an hour, they will start packing their things and arranging for them to be transported back to China by air.
Lin Yao started to pack up the things on the booth in advance, and she had no opinion.
However, she saw that she had left a pile of chocolates, but now she was empty, and looked at the box containing snacks, and it was the same, not only were the snacks missing, but there was not a single chocolate!
Lin Yun also found that most of the people who came to visit the exhibition hall were dragged with their families, and the families here in Dubai were different from those in Huaguo, and each of them had many children.
These people who came with a lot of children obviously just came to hang out and have fun, and were not really buyers.
Lin Yao took matters into her own hands and took out the snacks and chocolates she bought to entertain customers and distributed them to those children!
Lin Yun thinks that she is not a small person, as long as Lin Yao doesn't go too far, she will turn a blind eye.
But the show isn't over yet, and the plates are empty!
When she saw the pile of wrapping paper in the trash can, the anger in her heart could no longer be suppressed.
Her face turned blue and she was furious, "Have you been sitting here eating just now?" Still eating a single piece of chocolate? ”
Lin Yao was originally busy packing up the clutter, but when she suddenly heard Lin Yun's question, she turned around a little puzzled.
Chocolate?
Lin Yao has taken a lot of snacks for the children in the past few days, but the children's favorite thing is chocolate, so there are still some other snacks left, but there are not many chocolates.
Originally, it was nothing, as long as it was enough to present until the end of the show.
Who would have thought that there would be a Hossein at the last minute......
But that shouldn't make a difference, right?
The show is almost over, and there are not many customers coming at this time, and even if there are customers, no one cares if they have enough snacks on their plates.
In the face of Lin Yun's monstrous anger, Lin Yao seemed very calm, "It was eaten by the customer." ”
"What the customer ate?" Of course Lin Yun didn't believe it, she sneered, and her tone was not without mockery, "I've been shopping around for a long time, and I haven't seen anyone with customers in their stall!"
Besides, how many days have you been in Dubai? A total of 100 catalogs have not been sent out!
Don't tell me there's a big group of customers coming to Hula at the last minute! ”
This is of course impossible.
Lin Yao was serious and explained: "That's the case, a customer came just now, and he seems to be very fond of chocolate......
"Is it the customer's love or you're the one who loves it?" Lin Yun got up and scolded loudly, "You have to figure it out, this is Lingyun's booth, those are all Lingyun's things, not your personal property!" ”
"Mr. Lin, let me repeat, it's the customer who came just now......"
Before Lin Yao's words were finished, Lin Yun interrupted sharply, "Enough, don't talk to me as if I don't know who you are!" ”
Lin Yao was dumbfounded, she knew why Lin Yun would say that.
When Lin Yao first entered Lingyun, there were just the two of them in the company, and Lin Yun often took her to dinner.
At that time, she was never a picky eater, no matter where Lin Yun took her, no matter what dishes Lin Yun ordered, no matter how many dishes she ordered, she could finish eating.
Admittedly, she used to be a foodie, but that was all in the past, and now she is careful to control her appetite, and her appetite has decreased a lot as she has aged.
If Lin Yun had paid attention to her recently, it should not be difficult to find this.
At this time, there is still about an hour left before the end of the exhibition, and in order not to affect the feelings of the guests, the organizer requires that the exhibition can only be dismantled at the point.
Everyone had nothing to do, and they were standing on this road boredly.
Lin Yun's voice was not small, and when she reprimanded Lin Yao, she did not deliberately lower her voice, so she was naturally heard clearly by others.
Hearing the movement here, the people in the aisle walked towards Ling Yun's location.
Lin Yun was still chattering, "A few days ago, you gave away the things I bought everywhere, and I didn't bother to talk about you." But this is the last box of chocolates, and you actually ate it all!
It's not that I won't let you eat, when the exhibition is over, you can eat as much as you want, and no one will care about you! You're good that the show is over before it ends! ”
Lin Yao's face turned red, these things were indeed bought by Lin Yun, and Lin Yun had the power to decide what to do with them.
And she does love to eat chocolate.
The temperature in the exhibition hall is relatively low, and she occasionally eats some chocolate to keep out the cold + refresh after arriving at the exhibition hall, no more than two pieces a day.
Despite this, eating is eating, which Lin Yao really can't refute.
She said, "I ate two today, you were there at that time, and the rest was eaten by the customer." ”
"Customers? Where are the customers? If a customer comes, I'm thankful! ”
Speaking of this, the anger in Lin Yun's heart was even stronger.
Lin Yun's main purpose in coming to Dubai is to eat, drink and have fun, but she came in the name of an exhibition, and it always has to have some effect.
But this exhibition really made her unsatisfied!
Lin Yun was furious, "Lin Yao, if you quibble again, don't blame me......"
"Ahem!" A young man in the booth on the side couldn't look at it, and couldn't help but interject, "I saw a big fat man on your booth just now, he has been eating non-stop since he sat down, and he took away all the uneaten food before leaving." ”
Lin Yao didn't expect that someone would see this scene and be willing to stand up and speak for her, and she was immediately pleasantly surprised.
Lin Yun was stunned, and her monstrous anger stopped abruptly as if someone had pressed the pause button.
After a while, she said lightly, "You can clean up the things in the booth yourself." Then he walked away.
"Am I doing me a disservice?" The young man said apologetically, "I'm so sorry, I'll help you pack it later, right?" ”
Lin Yao bowed slightly at the young man, "Thank you, but, no need, I can handle it!" "It's a big deal, I'll just clean it up later.
After saying this, she put on gloves, took a soft cloth and began to wipe the sample, and then packed it when the time came, which was in line with the requirements of the exhibitor.
She is glad that she brought fewer samples this time.
