Chapter 32: DD on the Streets

Gu Xin has a good connection, she has rarely come to the center since we got along, and she has decided to be the person behind the future crown ambassador. She constantly brings me a list of high-quality people: fellow journalists, CEOs of advertising agencies, former brothers and sisters...... She would be by my side every time I communicated, and then constantly pointed out my communication strategy, making me scorched on the outside and tender on the inside.

Yingying is a good friend of Gu Xin in college and works at Shanghai TV Station. Taking advantage of Yingying's return to Tianjin Province, Gu Xin asked her out for me to split. She was financially well-off, so she took a few thousand yuan of products on the spot and decided to invest in the business. In order to make her up her mind to start with 19,200 yuan (12%), I had to commit to going to Shanghai to help her get started in return.

At that time, Zhao Yi's college classmate Ren Hui was also about to come out. Ren Hui was actually hacked by me not long after Zhao Yi came out, he happened to be returning to his alma mater in Langfang to do business, passing through Tianjin to see Zhao Yi, and was cleaned up by us by the way. However, Ren Hui is in Guangzhou, and it is very inconvenient to follow up, so every time we go to Guangzhou to participate in Chenggongling, we will call him over for edification. Ren Hui is a lieutenant, because he is in the military academy, so he is very idle, every time he goes to Guangzhou, he is called by us to open his eyes, and then accompany the leader to eat, and he is also a little nervous after a few times.

At that time, Zhao Yi was facing a serious economic crisis, because in August 2003, he took it upon himself to rush the silver medal and pressed a lot of goods, and helping him alleviate the economic crisis became my top priority at that time. When Zhao Yi and Yanan rushed to the silver medal, we happened to have a conference in Shanghai, and because their mentality has been unstable, Yahan and I actually didn't approve of them attacking the silver medal so strongly, so we didn't give them much help that month. As a result, on the way back, there was "good news" from the delivery room - we received a call that they were on their own, and what we had been worried about finally happened. We have always been worried that they will be even more difficult to clean up in the future after they have been on the silver medal, so they have not been particularly respected in the team after they have been on it, and Zhao Yi and Yanan have always been obsessed with me for this matter. Zhao Yi and Yanan are also victims of the system and the conference! It was useless for us to say anything then, they did everything according to the system and the conference!

Ren Hui is the only partner in my personal department who has invested 32,000 yuan (15%) at the beginning and has not made much money on his card for so many years, on the one hand, because he is not short of money, and on the other hand, because only in this way can he help Zhao Yi solve practical problems. The specific method is to transfer 25,000 yuan of goods from Zhao Yi's inventory (a considerable part of them are for personal use, samples and stocking), and bring them from Tianjin to the consignment with the car, and Ren Hui will call the money from Guangzhou, and the rest of the stock will go directly to Ren Hui's card in Guangzhou, and let Zhao Yi send Ren Hui over after a month of the bad bonus. Newcomers generally can't do this, but Ren Hui is Zhao Yi's friend after all, and the sequelae of such an operation are generally not too big. But Ren Hui is still a little hesitant to start with 32,000 yuan, after all, we are not in Guangzhou. In order to let Ren Hui start with peace of mind, I had to commit again to Guangzhou to help Ren Hui operate for a stage.

Yahan is firmly opposed to me going to Guangzhou, such a round trip is very expensive in terms of time and money, but in order to help Zhao Yi solve practical problems, I must fulfill my promise to the newcomer. At the beginning of May, I took 3,000 yuan in cash and boarded the train to Guangzhou and Shanghai. 3,000 yuan in cash was the only liquidity I could squeeze out at that time, and a DD income was spent on the long journey of Meilu to open up the market. When he got the 25,000 yuan in cash that Ren Hui remitted, Yanan said with a smile: "Ren Hui is really a good person!" "But how did she know how much effort I put in behind this!

The first thing he did after arriving in Guangzhou was to lead Ren Hui to the luggage room of the station to pick up the goods. In order to make it easier for newcomers to feel enough warmth at the beginning, I will personally do the preliminary work of each partner in my personal team when they get started. I stayed in Guangzhou for half a month, selling goods in the store, successfully selling the bookstore, opening the lid for personal use, product demonstration, how to talk about OPP, how to value the vision, how to invite...... I almost told Ren Hui about the entire BTC individually, and left a complete note. Because Ren Hui was fighting alone in Guangzhou, I talked a lot about the common sense of starting up, and this kind of cramming intensive training completely exhausted me, that is, from that time, I began to have the idea of writing a sufficiently detailed "Beginner's Fool Starting Manual", and this desire was not finally completed in Jiangxi until October of the following year. During this period, I took Ren Hui and his wife Mingxia to the center of Xu Diamond in Guangzhou, where they will operate in the future, and also took them to Maoming to participate in the Chenggong Ridge of Liang Diamond. This time the success of Ling can smash the pot. Liang Zuan is Mr. Zhou's small department, and his background, background and struggle are absolutely difficult, but there are few decent high-quality talents in his department, which can make Ren Hui's wife Mingxia suspicious, it turns out that Meilu is done by this kind of person! Since then, Mingxia has not been so enthusiastic about Meilu. I have encountered this situation many times later, and it really made me dumb to eat Coptis chinensis - I can't tell if I have any bitterness! It seems that what kind of people to listen to and what kind of leaders to meet are still necessary to pay attention to many times.

During my stay in Guangzhou, I have been living in Ren Hui's home, and the accommodation fee is a big savings, but half a month's consumption still hasn't left me much money, and when I buy a ticket to Shanghai (in order not to affect the newcomer, I can only buy a sleeper), there are only 600 yuan left in my pocket. At that time, Gu Xin said to Yingying, I also live at her house in Shanghai, and I thought that the ticket money for the next trip back to Tianjin was finally settled. At that time, I had already contacted Ms. Yang who was far away in Shanghai, and she would be Yingying's overseas recommender (i.e., the bonus before the silver medal would go to me, the 4% leadership bonus would be half for both sides, the Pearl bonus would go to her, I would take the jade bonus, and the diamond bonus would go to her), so that I wouldn't have to work as hard as I did in Guangzhou for so long.

Ren Hui sent me on the train, and with infinite expectations for the Shanghai market, I ran to the paradise of oriental adventurers, and Ren Hui was left alone in Guangzhou. Two nights a week from Dongpu to and from Yuexiu Center, it takes an hour and a half each way to transfer to two buses, and after class, there is no bus on the return trip. In a big city like Guangzhou, it is really a luxury that ordinary people can hardly achieve when they will be there every time. In such a birthplace of the American road where American people bloom everywhere, Ren Hui soon "died" lonely and lonely.

No matter how good the leader is, far water can't quench his thirst. If you want to operate successfully independently in the foreign market, it is difficult for ordinary people to do it without superhuman iron will and passion like fire! If you want to find it, you have to find people like Yahan or me, but there are not many such people in the world. This is the reason why leaders in the field are mostly tough and the local sector is mostly cowardly. There is no grass growing under the big tree, and the law of the jungle of natural selection has already made arrangements for us! The only thing we can do other than help newcomers get started is to repeatedly say "You're the best!" "You can do it!" "See you at the peak!" - Always give a little encouragement to the newcomer.

Big Shanghai, I'm coming!

The train arrived at Shanghai Railway Station at half past seven in the morning, standing in the station square and breathing in the fresh air, I was bored and imagined the scene after Yingying became bigger. Although I have been to Shanghai countless times because of meetings, this time I have a front row, and the feeling is very different. Because it was the weekend, I had to wait until nine o'clock to call Yingying, but fortunately, there was still the address of Yingying's house, so I couldn't wait to take a taxi directly to her house. Eat a bowl of the cheapest large rib of noodles nearby to satisfy your hunger, I drop a good girl, a bowl of noodles actually costs eight oceans, isn't this obviously slaughtering people? I weighed it and ordered a bowl anyway.

I finally stayed up until nine o'clock, and when I called, I turned off the phone, and I still couldn't get through after half an hour, so I made up my mind to go directly to Yingying's house. Knocking on the door, a strange man standing in the door with a cane must be Yingying's husband, I know she was newly married at that time. The man with the cast on his leg looked at me with a gloomy look on his face and reluctantly let me into the house. Sitting on the sofa in the living room and watching football in silence for a few hours, we barely said a word, and my heart began to feel uneasy.

At noon, Yingying finally came back, and she went to Taili for a meeting in the morning, so her phone was turned off. Her husband finally broke out, and the two of them quarreled in the kitchen, to the effect that he had brought such a strange man into the house without his permission, and whether he was still in his eyes or not, and he still wanted to be a beautiful road? Hmph, daydreaming! Yingying's husband was full of vinegar, and I began to sweat for Yingying's smooth start.

The quarrel was finally over, Yingying pulled my luggage and said to go out to eat, seeing this situation, the family could not live, she wanted to take me to find a hotel nearby, I couldn't help but secretly complain. After three rounds of wine and five flavors, Yingying took me to a nearby economy hotel, and heard her say that as long as eighty oceans a night, I thought it was okay, and I could hold on for a few more nights, but I asked the front desk to know that the hotel was already full. We ran three hotels in a row, exhausted we finally came to the door of a three-star hotel, Yingying proposed to go in to see, a question actually has a room, the room price is more than 300 yuan a room. Yingying knew that I was already DD at that time, and in front of a powerful petty bourgeoisie, I painfully took out my ID card, and said vigorously that it was not expensive or not, the price of Shanghai was really cheap, but the blood in my heart had already flowed a bucket.

After settling down, I took Yingying to the Hongkou store on Meilu and bought a bunch of materials at Chenggong Bookstore, but when it came to selling Yingying, she hesitated, and her husband's attitude at noon made her feel a little uneasy. The next day, I had to take her to Mr. Yang's family reunion, not in a hurry, I still believe in Mr. Yang's skills, so I respected Mr. Yang in front of Yingying, what is the legendary woman of Meilu China, the first silver medal of Bright International, the first diamond of Meilu East China, the painter in Australia, and the owner of two schools in Australia...... Yingying's eyes were straight, and her saliva flowed all over the ground. In view of Yingying's current situation, after fully absorbing the lessons of Mingxia at the Maoming Conference, I decided to use heavy artillery as soon as I came up.

The next night, Yingying and I went to Ms. Yang's personal studio on Xietu Road, where a bunch of people were already waiting. The family gathering in the evening soon began, and Ms. Yang gave a lecture on products to her small department. When I looked at those small departments, I couldn't help but complain, which of these are high-quality talents, a bunch of pure low-level citizens in Shanghai. At the end of the study, Yingying secretly told me that Teacher Yang was still a character. I quickly explained that Ms. Yang has long been famous, and she is now specializing in poverty alleviation projects, and Meilu is a caring career. At that time, I had perfected my ability to answer objections, which was forced out over the years! At the meeting after the meeting, many small departments scrambled to ask questions, and when Yingying finally interjected, Teacher Yang glanced at her and said sharply: "You haven't made up your mind yet!" "Teacher Yang is very high-profile as a beauty road, even for newcomers, her requirements for mentality are also very strict. After that, Mr. Yang never spoke to this newcomer again, and Yingying hiccuped like this. Pity my newcomer, I finally gave birth, and I still had a difficult birth!

It was already more than 11 o'clock at night when I came out of the studio on the sloping dirt road, and Yingying asked me why Teacher Yang ignored her, and I was speechless. But I decided to take her to another diamond house under Mr. Yang the next day, Zheng Zuan's house. Zheng Zuan was the editor of the magazine before Meilu, and the quality is still good, our personal relationship has always been good, and she will definitely not shirk helping her. It was past 12 midnight when we broke up and returned to the hotel, and my nightmare began......

When I checked into the hotel the first day, I put 600 yuan in cash, and when I inserted the room card into the crack of the key, I found that the door could not be opened. When I went downstairs to the front desk, I learned that the deposit had been used up, and if I wanted to enter the room, I had to renew the room fee for the next day, but at that time I only had three dollars and two cents left in my pocket. According to the original plan, I will be able to meet Zhu Ansheng from Jiangxi to Shanghai the next day, and I will be able to survive if I ask him to borrow some money. I began to spit out the three-inch tongue of the lotus, and put my ID card and luggage in charge...... In the end, the hotel security guard entered the room without saying a word and threw my luggage out of the door.

I sat at the gate for a while, thinking quickly about the countermeasures, and there were actually only two sets of options to choose from: one was to go to the train station to lie down overnight, and then go to Zheng Zuan's house the next day; The second is to go directly to Zheng Zuan's house and find a random place downstairs to squat for a night. Going to the bench in the waiting room of the train station to spend the night is undoubtedly a relatively comfortable solution, but the problem is that the night bus ticket to the train station costs two yuan, and the next day from the station to Zheng Zuan's house costs two yuan, and I only have three yuan and two cents on me, and the bus money is not enough. After calming down, I took my luggage and boarded the night bus to Luwan Bridge. Zheng Zuan's house is on Luban Road not far from there. Writing this, I can't help but think of Xiao Shen in Beijing, who was too poor to rent a house when he first started, and slept at the train station almost every day for months. What kind of spirit is this? Said: Meilu!

When I arrived at Luban Road, it rained lightly. I was carrying my luggage, holding an umbrella and looking at a map, and I spent more than half an hour on a five-minute drive. It was already past midnight, and it was impossible for me to ask Zheng Zuan for help anymore. I think of Lin Chao, the good brother who can always save me at critical moments.

I finally found a small alley that could shelter from the rain on the opposite side of the Zheng Zuanjia community, and I was even more fortunate that there was a small three-wheeled roof parked in the alley, which was really pitiful. After settling down, I dialed Gu Xin's phone and briefly reported the situation here, thinking that I could still get some comfort from distant Tianjin, but Gu Xin's accusation sounded on the other end of the phone, to the effect that why didn't you bring enough money when you went so far away? This time just gave me a long memory and so on. Before the scolding on the other end of the phone was finished, the phone was out of battery, and the sky had eyes. It was rainy in May in Jiangnan, and I was frozen into a lump on my tricycle. What's worse is that mosquitoes also rushed to hide from the rain, and within two hours, dozens of bags were bitten out of their bodies. Helplessly, he began to pace around in the dim light of the alley. The pack of cigarettes was quickly wiped out, and I began to search the corners for cigarette butts that had not yet been wet from the rain. Without a mobile phone, there is no concept of time, and it was the longest night of my life.

When I first came out, my biggest dream was to retire and then drive a jeep and take my beloved girl to travel all over the mountains and rivers. I've never seriously thought about being a crown ambassador, and there are many people in the department who swear to the crown impassionedly on stage, but it's one thing to shout on stage, and it's another thing to make up your mind. How many people have "died" before they were crowned, and I don't know how many they have seen over the years? That night, I made a solemn promise to myself in my heart: I will die as a crown ambassador!

How difficult it is to stay up until dawn, hope that the stars and the moon will go home early to rest. When it was getting lighter, and the rain was lighter, I stiffened myself to the nearby breakfast shop, in fact, I had already scouted countless times during the night. I drank a bowl of hot soy milk for the last one yuan, and my confused consciousness finally became a little hot again, but when I left, I accidentally left my phone there and never found it again. Yahan once said that as long as you lose something, it means that you must be hired, and my DD performance was finally completed in that month. What Yahan said has always been very effective!

At nine o'clock in the morning, Yingying came to Zheng Zuan's house as promised. Zheng Zuan's home is beautiful, with the Luban road facing the Huangpu River at its back, the magnificent Luwan Bridge in full view, and the future World Expo site across the river. But the most impressive thing is the word engraved on the bamboo board on the wall of the living room: Therefore, the heavens will descend on the people, and they must first suffer their minds, strain their muscles and bones, starve their bodies and skin, empty their bodies, and act chaotically, so they are tempted to endure and gain what they cannot...... After the follow-up that day, I lied that I had lost my wallet on the bus, and finally borrowed 200 yuan from Zheng Zuan, and finally solved my urgent need.

The next day, Zhu Ansheng rushed to Shanghai from Jiangxi, and several DDs from Yahan and Tianjin also came over. The relocation of the headquarters of Meilu East China and the inauguration ceremony of the Zhangjiang High-tech Research and Development Center of Meilu China will be held in Hubin Xintiandi the next day. It was on that day that I met Smith Global** Steve. I borrowed 600 yuan from Zhu Ansheng, and soon paid off Zheng Zuan's debt as promised, and bought a hard-seat train ticket back to Tianjin. At the beginning of last month, when I sent my female circle of friends to Shanghai to participate in the "Housing Expo", I drove around and inadvertently came to Lakeside Xintiandi.

This experience has been buried deep in my heart for many years, and it was not until I was recognized as a diamond by the system that I shared it a few times in the leadership training. And these pure newcomers must not listen, they have not yet established dreams and beliefs in their hearts, and few can bear it after listening. What a wonderful career in the United States, the same lesson, is nourishment for leaders, and poison for newcomers!

The last time I saw Zheng was at Ms. Yang's Huangshan Tourism Seminar in September 2006, when the number of leaders she could bring with her had plummeted. When giving a lecture to the department, Zheng Zuan was quite hoarse and anxious, and I vaguely felt that something might be wrong with her team. Later, in December 2007, Zheng Zuan gathered the remaining backbones of the team for the last time in the name of celebrating Mr. Yang's birthday, and after that, Zheng Zuan's team basically disappeared. In order to retain the last blood of the team, Zheng Zuan made a desperate and secret Kang Baolai, but unfortunately the good times did not last long, and he was directly clicked by the company after being reported. At this point, Zheng Zuan disappeared into the rolling torrent of Meilu, but the wheel of the times is still moving forward......
