One: Lost Chapter 58: Bottoming out
Two weeks later, one afternoon, the conference room of the Bright Pension Marketing Department.
Li Hongyuan wrote in his notebook and said: "This Mid-Autumn Festival event, we have failed very much. For the event of more than 1,000 people, a list of 50,000 yuan was issued, which was not enough to cover the cost of this event. Everyone analyzed and analyzed and summarized the reasons for the failure of this event. ”
More than a dozen people sat dejectedly, and none of them spoke. Li Ming glanced at everyone, "I am the host of this event, due to my personal reasons, I am not in a good state, resulting in the atmosphere of the event not being done, and I am willing to take part of the responsibility." ”
Li Hongyuan looked up at Li Ming, "This is one of the points, but it is not the most critical." ”
Yan Hongyan raised her hand and pushed her glasses upward, looked at Li Hongyuan and said, "I think a big reason for the failure of today's event is that we didn't control the customers well. The staff were busy with their own work, and as soon as the event was over, the customers left the venue, and there was no chance for the staff to negotiate the order. ”
Li Hongyuan listened while noting down the key points that Yan Hongyan said. "You're saying that this event has a lot of people and few staff, and it doesn't quantify efficiency, right?"
"This, I personally think, is that the effect of a small activity of one or two hundred people will be a little better." Yan Hongyan added.
"Kind of makes sense." Li Hongyuan said with a frown.
Huang Lun said: "I personally think that choosing to find a hotel in Changsha to do activities is a mistake in itself. ”
Li Hongyuan was puzzled, although Huang Lun's tone of voice seemed to be accusatory, but Li Hongyuan wanted to hear what the basis for Huang Lun's words was. "Director Huang, you said that choosing to do activities in Changsha City is wrong in itself, why is that?"
"A large part of the components are environmental reasons, doing activities in Guangming Village, which is affected by the environmental impact of the elderly apartment; When the elderly go to visit the apartment, they originally go to inspect the apartment, and the probability of a transaction is naturally greater. Let's take a look at our activities today, although the theme is 'Bright Pension Mid-Autumn Festival Friendship', it feels like a gala or health care product activity. ”
Li Hongyuan nodded, "Director Huang's analysis makes some sense. After all, people are the product of the environment, and those old people are willing to get up early in the morning to catch a car to visit the apartment in Guangming Village, and it can be seen that they are visiting the apartment for the sake of visiting the apartment. Most of the elderly who came to this event were based on local materials, and they came when they heard that there was an event, and they didn't know what kind of event it was. So the event was chaotic, and it was reasonable that there was no deal. ”
Zhao Jia said: "Actually, I think part of the reason is the news report. In the past, when the event was over, the customer would stay to listen to the staff chat; But now, as soon as the event ended, the people were gone, and we didn't have a chance to negotiate at all. ”
Li Hongyuan said while taking notes: "I also agree with what Zhao Jia said, after all, the news report is too much slander on Bright Pension, and many customers are waiting and seeing." ”
Zhao Jia said: "So I think it is necessary for our apartment to advertise on the TV station. In the past, auspicious pension was often reported, but now it is directly advertised on TV stations, which is ironic enough. ”
Li Hongyuan smiled slightly, "I heard Mr. Liu say that he is going to advertise on the TV station. ”
Li Ming, who was originally sullen, opened his mouth to speak: "When it comes to advertising, I'm a little angry. Qin Xiaolan lurked in our apartment and criticized our apartment. I contacted her about this, and guess what she told me? ”
Li Hongyuan looked at Li Ming and said with a smile: "She shouldn't talk to you about cooperation and business!" ”
"That's really the case, she said, they now have a great discount on the advertising package, and it is recommended that we also advertise on their channel."
Li Hongyuan said with a smile: "See, I will stab you first, and then tell you that she can heal; That's marketing. Li Hongyuan looked at Li Ming and asked, "How did you answer her?"
"I said, our company is preparing to find a TV station to advertise, and there is no problem in cooperating, but we have to become a shareholder of our company first."
"Hahahaha, you're openly selling equity to her, aren't you afraid that she will give you another special report?" Zhao Jia quipped.
"Wouldn't that be better, I'm still worried about how to be famous, I wish she had an exclusive interview with me."
……
One day three weeks later, in the office hall of the marketing department, Tang Jing looked at the mobile phone and said in surprise: "Look, there is heavy news in the circle of friends. ”
"What?" Zhao Jia tilted her body and looked at Tang Jing's mobile phone.
"Han Xin posted her marriage certificate in the circle of friends."
"Really? So fast? Zhao Jia also asked in surprise.
"You see, there is a picture and there is a truth." Tang Jing clicked on the news posted by Han Xinfa in the WeChat circle of friends, and also attached a picture of the marriage certificate.
"On the National Day on October 1st, she is quite good at picking the day, her wedding is to be celebrated by the whole country." Zhao Jia said with some sarcasm.
"It's only been more than a month since she left Li Ming, and she got married, which is too fast, I can't believe it's true."
"Maybe she just played casually, just to stimulate Li Ming and see Li Ming's reaction." Zhao Jia also opened his mobile phone and looked at it and said.
"Is there such a thing as a playful person? That's too heart-wrenching, isn't it? ”
"Li Ming will come out in a while, ask him and you will know."
After a while, Li Ming walked out of Li Hongyuan's office.
Tang Jing smiled and asked Li Ming, "Have you seen the circle of friends?" ”
"I didn't see it." Li Ming saw that Tang Jing and Zhao Jia were both looking at him with strange eyes, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Zhao Jia said: "You open it and take a look." ”
Li Ming took out his mobile phone and opened it to see that there was no news of Han Xin's marriage. "Nothing."
Tang Jing raised his mobile phone in front of Li Ming's eyes, "Han Xin is getting married, don't you know?" ”
This sudden news was like a bombshell, Li Mingqiang suppressed the panic in his heart, and pretended to be calm and said: "I'll go smoke and smoke." ”
In the passage, Li Ming smoked a cigarette and dialed Han Xin's best friend when he went to school, "Hey, old classmate, I heard that Han Xin is getting married, is this true?" ”
"After I looked at the circle of friends, the phone number was confirmed, it was true, October 1st, will you go?"
Li Ming took a deep puff of cigarette, "Not this time, let's go back when she gets married next time." ”
"What the hell is wrong with you two? There were rumors that the two of you got along again, what the hell is wrong with you? ”
"I don't know what's going on, I'm confused."
……
On October 1, 2014, Li Ming came to a barber shop to get a big back cut, and then came to a branded suit shop.
"Hello, welcome to Lilang, sir, please." The shopping guide greeted Li Ming with a smile.
The shopping guide followed Li Ming, Li Ming took off a favorite purple shirt, and the shopping guide smiled and said: "Mr. has a really good eye, the fabric of this shirt is very good, it is a non-iron fabric, it does not pill or wrinkle, and it feels very good." ”
"Hold it for me first."
"Yes, sir."
Li Ming picked out another set of favorite suits, put on a purple shirt, changed his clothes and walked out of the fitting room. After the shopping guide half-squatted down to help Li Ming roll up the hem of his trousers, he got up and said: "Your inverted triangle figure, wearing this European version of the slim suit, is really visible." ”
Li Ming looked in the mirror and always felt that something was missing. So he turned around and came to a big trench coat, and at first glance it was the style he liked; Li Ming took off his windbreaker, put it on his body, and came to the mirror to take a look, "That's it." ”
……
On the day of Han Xin's marriage, Li Ming changed the decadent image of the previous few weeks, and he decided to cheer up and make a world of his own in his career. In his opinion, without the support of money, the so-called feelings are nothing more than empty talk.
At this time, in Li Ming's heart, the most important people have left, and everything has become unimportant. The only thing that sustained him was the belief that came from the depths of his heart, the belief that he would change the fate of poverty and live a happy life.
Now, although it is not his dream to do the pension service industry, there is only one way to go now; It doesn't matter how much he has, as long as he can make money.
……
As soon as the four-day National Day holiday is over, it will be followed by 26 consecutive days of work. In the office of the marketing department, Li Ming answered the phone: "Hey, yes,...... You will have an interview after 3 p.m. tomorrow, and the location will be sent to you later. ”
At the event venue, Li Ming took the microphone and said: "This is the event site of the Warm Home Friendship Party organized by Guangming Pension, and I am the host of this event, Li Ming." ”
At the tea house, Li Ming shouted confidently to the customer in front of him: "Uncle, in Changsha, can you still find a better apartment for the elderly than Guangming Pension?" ”
Li Ming repeated the work content in a regular manner, and as the days passed, Li Ming also had a team of five or six people, but the performance was not very ideal.
……
The end of the year is approaching, and Bright Pension is facing the expiration of the contracts of some old customer members and needs to be refunded.
In a restaurant, Li Hongyuan anxiously answered the phone, "Okay, you appease the customer first, and we will push the money to the customer within fifteen working days." ”
"What's the situation?" Zhao Jia looked at Li Hongyuan and asked.
"An old customer of a former employee, because no one cares, her children are in the company to get a refund." Li Hongyuan said with a sad face.
"It's a few days before the New Year, and it's all on holiday, and it's also drunk to make trouble at this time."
"The current situation is that the group has spent a lot of money to win the Wulingyuan Hotel in Zhangjiajie, and there are many customers who have refunded, and the finance says every day that there is no money to be refunded."
"No wonder the financial staff has been hiding from anyone these days, so how to deal with this matter?"
"I'll call Mr. Liu first." Li Hongyuan said and dialed Liu Lixian's phone.
After Li Hongyuan listened to Liu Lixian's phone call, Zhao Jia asked, "What did she say?" ”
"She said she'll figure it out as soon as possible."
"That's good, Mr. Liu will come forward, and this matter will be easy to do."
Li Hongyuan sighed, "What I'm most worried about now is that after a year, there will be no more employees left." ”
"It's all like this, we can't keep employees, and we have no way, let's wait for the New Year to recruit."
