Chapter 194: Flowers Are Not Flowers Why am I upset
The night is hazy, the deep night sky, the dazzling reflection of the galaxy and the brilliant lights on the ground seem to melt into one.
A quiet and beautiful town, a place near mountains and rivers, a long street of European-style buildings, a small building with a garden, under the sleepless light, sat a contemplative man, he leaned on the sofa, holding his mobile phone, watching the news on the Internet, a foreign country, there are many restrictions on the connection of the Internet, but fortunately, you can browse relatively public news.
This is a common habit of people who have left their hometowns, and they will always look for a way to dispel homesickness, which seems to be a constant love in the blood.
Demolitions, mass incidents, police beatings, unjust cases...... And so on takes up a lot of space, especially drops, these foreign devils also know how to amplify negative news outside their own country, but many good development forms may be ignored, and if you simply use Chinese to browse, there will be a lot of garbled characters and access restrictions, just like reminding you all the time...... This is not in the country.
Yes, it's not in the country!
Even if you learn to speak fluently, you can't change your face, even if you are worth a lot of money, you are also an alternative in the eyes of others. The church may not welcome you, the community may not be able to integrate with you, the neighborhood may not be able to dissolve with you, and you may be neglected, and that feeling of second-class citizenship, the longer you live, the clearer it becomes.
Maybe it's a halfway abroad, and it's hard to get used to, but it's really far from the imaginary paradise.
He turned over, and when he unintentionally clicked on a social news page, a corner of the news caught his eye, the keyword "Harman", click to open the content, Harman and DTM company strategic cooperation, a total of a number of digital security equipment. He frowned, and searched for similar content, a lot, a lot of advertisements on the Internet, almost overlay, text, video, news, hundreds of them, and they ranked at the top of the search list.
This aroused his interest, every time he manipulated behind the scenes, he could see the essence from the surface, such as network coverage, which requires hiring a lot of promoters to hype, such as news, which requires websites to tout to you, such as these text, video soft campaigns, to rank at the forefront of search, but also need your generous pocket.
The eyeball is the economy, and the Internet era is especially obvious, which he understands, but what is strange to him is that when he carefully searched and confirmed that this Harman was the original Harman, a deep sense of frustration struck, making him decadent and lost.
"Beautiful...... Well done!"
He muttered, thinking so, there is a foundation of commercial espionage, and then to do business prevention, it is simply a familiar road, just like a thief will catch a thief, it must be the effect of twice the result with half the effort, and monitoring is the deepest field of commercial spy research, do that, he estimates that there is no shortage of this kind of talent in this industry, comprehensive consideration, monitoring, security, computer security, communication prevention and other key nodes are all woven together, such a perfect business security prevention, someone must pay.
Wonderful...... He was touched and praised from the bottom of his heart, that he had been looking for a place to go for a long time, but in the end he had chosen to retire, and when he knew that Haman had changed hands, he felt that someone was following in his footsteps, but now he knew that the man had taken a new path, completely different, and could lead to the end.
"In the end, I lost!"
He thought so decadently, a little nostalgic for the leisurely life in China, a little miss for the food that is very suitable for the spleen and stomach in the country, with a huge amount of money, like carrying a heavy burden, so that he is not at peace at all times, for more than two years, he has moved several times, even if the quiet environment is, it can't give him a sense of security.
Card...... At this moment, he heard a strange noise, he sat up, took out the gun under the coffee table, loaded it, and slowly walked down the stairs.
Boom... Boom... There was a knock on the door, and a policeman, shouting for someone, put his gun in his back and came up, a black policeman, suing him, sir, we have received a call from a neighbor who suspects you of an illegal party here.
HE OPENED THE DOOR AND COMMUNICATED WITH LAO HEI IN BARELY INTELLIGIBLE ENGLISH, CONFIRMING THAT HE LIVED ALONE, BUT UNEXPECTEDLY, THE OLD BLACK'S EYES FLASHED, AND HE JUST FELT THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG, THE LAO HEI HAD ALREADY PULLED OUT HIS GUN AND PUSHED HIM AGAINST THE WALL, WITH THE THREAT OF BAD BREATH: DON'TMOVE!
When he met the robbers, he was stunned, and he was searched against the wall...... Then two more came, handcuffed him, and the three of them rummaged through the room for a while, and when the other man was clever enough to pick up his laptop and sign the slip, he understood, and asked a black man in English, "You are not a policeman, and I can give you money." ”
Strange, the told him in blunt Chinese: "We are black police... Money and people, all for it!"
The three of them, carrying him out of his residence, got into a police car, and drove straight away, definitely not a police station.
Hours later, local media aired a news item about the suspected abduction of a Chinese man who lived in a house in Long Island Township, which the local police believed was linked to active local Chinese gangsters......
..........................................
..........................................
In China, which can not see this small range of news, DTM Harman's nominal monitoring equipment sales company, in a month's time, has been from a small company with several offices, swelled to three offices, six warehouses, like a villain-like development speed finally alarmed the high-level, Mr. Lian took the time to make a special trip from Zhuozhou, 100 kilometers away.
He has been checking the monthly sales report of the month in the car, the entire sales platform, supplemented by the shop, mainly receiving orders, the sales tentacles of the company's headquarters, can directly affect the dealers at the municipal level, DTM's sales are mainly promoted in North China provinces, there are several cities that have done quite well, but no matter how good it is, the promotion of new products still takes time, what makes him very strange is that the most difficult to do in the Beijing market, this time the table is very unexpected, the monthly shipments have reached 12,000 units (sets), sales revenue of more than 4 million.
This income is inconspicuous, but in the long run, its significance is far-reaching, many places have just begun to promote the product, this side has been sold, the most sold, is actually a family-style security monitoring, although the price is not high, but for the public monitoring market that has gradually become saturated, it is undoubtedly a new road, he called several times to consult, let out of the secretary of the Wei like a changed person, and he reported to the detour.
"Xiao You...... This, this month's report, do you know?" Mr. Lian asked Assistant You Junrong.
The assistant who drove the car smiled: "Secretary Wei has released the satellite, is it too little for you to give her 20 million tasks within the year?" ”
"I thought it was too much, but now it seems that there are indeed less, what's going on? It's good to have a thousand sets for a single sale, and they also make a lot of orders for small companies, which are shipped as sets...... Sizzle, it stands to reason that the developed area of Beijing is a relatively saturated market, how does Xiaowei do it?" Mr. Lian couldn't figure it out, and followed his secretary for a few years, which was also intended to be promoted, and the sales had to be a trusted person, who knew that it would shine when it came out.
"I don't know, I've only met Secretary Wei once this month...... It seems that one, Mr. Qiu, Mr. Qiu has a lot of people in his hands, and it is easy to do things with many people. Assistant You said.
"It's impossible, their labor costs are well controlled, and even the reimbursement of hospitality expenses is not enough...... Hey, if the city wants to develop so fast, I don't have to run orders, I live by policy, and sooner or later I have to be stuck by policy. And those bureaucrats, layers of kickbacks, are too annoying. Mr. Lian laughed at himself, obviously feeling that this was not just a matter of numbers. The most profitable business in this bank is the government order, and the large order of an industry is hundreds of millions of billions, and no matter how small the company is, it can help you become a giant.
The two discussed to no avail, and hurriedly drove into Beijing, in the third ring Daming Bridge, in the newly established sales company, when getting off the car, it happened that Secretary Wei commanded the workers to carry the equipment, and saw Mr. Lian visiting, Wei Qihua ran up a little excitedly, and said embarrassedly: "Mr. Lian...... Why don't you say a word, look at me......"
Wearing ordinary overalls, there was the appearance of a special manager, but this did touch Lian Jiangtao, he smiled and said: "It's just beautiful, the manager who drives a luxury car and sits in the office is too ordinary, you remind me of when I first started my business, more than a dozen of us regardless of position, from porters to installers, have all worked." ”
The praise is so high, Secretary Wei is secretly happy, smiled embarrassedly, Mr. Lian took the report on his mobile phone and asked, "Sue me, how much water is there?"
"Oh, it's basically been paid. Secretary Wei said.
Lian Jiangtao was startled, and asked curiously: "That means, there are still many lists made this month?"
"Well, there are about as many more, some of them have just been installed, and some of them are still under construction. Secretary Wei said.
Now Mr. Lian was surprised, and called his secretary, come on, I have to ask you for advice, you may find a new way for me, how is this done? It seems that it has to be promoted in the whole market...... Come in.
Entering the general manager's office, it was an ordinary cubicle, the decoration had just been completed, and it was a very shabby place, and the interested Mr. Lian just sat down, but found that Wei Qihua was dodging, as if avoiding this question.
"Yo, do you need to hide your secrets?" Mr. Lian wondered.
"This ...... Mr. Lian...... Or ......" Secretary Wei was flickering, as if he was asked about privacy, Mr. Lian was a little angry, and he said sternly: "You just arrived at sales, this can't be the same as the financial statements, you want to prove yourself as much as possible, I understand this mood, but it's not good to do things with numbers...... I've been doing this for more than ten years, and I don't know how much I can sell. ”
"No, Mr. Lian, the numbers are absolutely fine...... It's just that. Secretary Wei hesitated.
"What the hell is it? What do you mean, even I don't have the right to know?" Mr. Lian was furious, and thought it was the secretary who was making trouble below. As soon as this kind of ghost comes to collect the money and verify, it will be exposed.
Secretary Wei stopped talking, opened the ledger, spread it on the table, and said to Mr. Lian: "The construction period has been scheduled for next month, we are seizing the time to recruit people, it is not a question of whether it can be sold or not, we are now worried that Tongming will not be able to supply the goods...... Numbers don't need to be faked, and if they do, at most they should be compressed, which is not too shocking. ”
Mr. Lian swept it roughly, and then he was dumbfounded, he looked at Secretary Wei, other people's secretaries are vases, and his own secretary has always been a wine bottle, but he didn't expect that one day, she would be able to bring this kind of surprise to herself.
"Good...... Great, then I need to know what this is all about. Mr. Lian was excited.
"Don't say I said it......"
Secretary Wei quietly closed the door, like a thief, and muttered to Mr. Lian.........
.............................................
.............................................
At this time, Bao Xiaosan is negotiating with the property of Zhangzhuang Community, anyway, he is an acquaintance, the wall reinforcement project of this community has just been done, San'er runs around every day to deal with the property, this is not an acquaintance, this is not a new business, instigating the property to change the monitoring probe.
The property manager didn't buy it, he didn't buy it twice in a row, and he still said: "No money, how much expense?"
"It's not, it can cost your money, can you just set up a name and collect it from the residents?" Bao Xiaosan was polite.
"Enough is enough, can't go too far. "The property is a bit of a conscience, embarrassed.
"You don't do anything too much...... Tell you for the last time, don't say that my brother doesn't take care of you, we talked to the boss, and the kickback will be mentioned to you again, clear a water, and change. "Bao Xiaosandao.
"Who do you think of me?" the property manager looked upset.
"Ah......h You pretend to be ****. Bao Xiaosan was unceremonious, and got up and left directly.
After thinking for a moment, he shouted: "Hey, after talking, how much is the rebate? ”
"Isn't that it, let's talk slowly if we can change it...... Don't talk about it here, let's go, eat together at noon, so many households, you push the family, brother, you're going to send it...... Anyone who keeps up with my boss is gone. ”
Bao Xiaosan said, and dragged the property manager away as if he was tied up, that man, he is obviously a pit goods, and he is embarrassed!
...............
At this time, Cui Xiaotian was in the Chaoyang Computer City area, giving demonstrations to those large and small male and female profiteers in the computer city, and there were more than a dozen samples on the table, which were all painstakingly worked, pen-type, lighter-type, watch-type, mobile phone-type, all candid shooting equipment...... Hey, don't get me wrong, it's a giveaway.
What really wants to promote is the home security thing,Adaptive probe,ConnectionWIFI,Mobile phone login control,Wide-angle monitoring can be realized、Even telescopic lens,And has an automatic anti-theft alarm function,A dry seller of computers looks very devoted,This kind of thing is not new,There are already there,But there are so many main control functions,And the picture is first-class is rare。
"How much does it cost?"
"Leave your email and I'll send you a quote. ”
"It's not a copycat, is it?"
"Absolutely not, DTM, big factory products, there are such big factory products, in the future, you can't sell the copycats. ”
Everyone whispered, they all went home to install computers and repair computers, this kind of hundreds of dollars is really not difficult to sell, gather in front of the mobile phone to see the pixels, watch the demonstration, and soon have a rough judgment on this product.
"It's okay, if the price is not too high, you can send it out with an installation discount. ”
"It should be acceptable, if you have pets at home, you must want to see them at work. ”
"Huh, I remember...... The piece of Zhongguancun seems to have existed for a long time. ”
Cui Xiaotian smiled when he heard this: "That's ours, unified shipping price, one phone call, door-to-door delivery, and guarantee that two will be delivered within the two." ”
After the explanation, business cards were distributed, new people were added from time to time in instant messaging, and price policies were sent uninterruptedly, and profiteers who had already tried began to harass: dear, is it okay to pay after the goods?
Dear, it's good to have cash in stock, buy ten get one free, hurry up! Cui Xiaotian replied.
When he went downstairs, the courier trucks downstairs had already been delivered here in bulk, in fact, it was very simple, as long as he entered these terminal markets, as long as those profiteers were profitable, there would be countless salesmen who could sell this thing.
...........................
At this time, Ding Erlei and his people have already set their sights on a new target.
The labor market outside Chongwen Gate is lined up along the street, and small boards are written on personal skills.
Those who have worked in wiring and those who have worked in the computer city will all beckon: go, find you some work to do.
These are all three meals, out of odd jobs for emergency, a box lunch can pull away a group of people, to work really capable, can earn money, maybe this group of people, can pull you several groups of people.
Not to mention, the team of the sales company is now equipped with monitoring, and it is like this, and I don't know how many skilled workers have been dug up.
The specific operation is very simple, the boss of Erpi took the money and counted the heads, he said, know the installation of monitoring, regardless of classmates or fellow villagers, as long as you have worked in that regular company, introduce a fifty yuan...... Which of you has done it, come with me, take care of food and housing, and pay your salary.
Greater China lacks any resources, but there is no shortage of people, and this condition, Tenniema is rich, and he will pull away half a car of people in a while.
..............................
Also at this time, Geng Baolei and Lao Yan walked into a professional monitoring equipment store.
As soon as the boss shouted, handed over the business card, and unceremoniously told the other party, how about changing our products?
"Huh...... That's impossible. The boss also politely refused.
"Come, take a step to speak. Geng Baolei invited the boss and entered the cubicle.
When it comes to the price, the boss's mind is moving, selling the goods of that manufacturer is nothing more than the size of the price difference.
Second, talking about rebates, selling 100 units, 1,000 units or even tens of thousands of units is definitely not a concept.
The third talk is after-sales service, just in the capital, the fault machine can be replaced on the same day.
I didn't say it, the new products hit the market, the conditions are absolutely good enough, but the boss was embarrassed, patted his face and said: "The conditions are good, but it can't sell much, how many businesses are doing it?" Now even the small façade that sells computers has a security monitoring business, and the business is not easy to do...... Otherwise, you can give me some goods, and we will sell them. ”
"Tsk, the discount is in the end, you have to pick up the goods in cash. Geng Baolei said.
"Then you can't help it. "The boss doesn't buy it, the market terminal is king, and if there is a shop, you have to beg me."
But the party is also ready, and the old fat appeared on the stage, which scared the boss, this thing is ugly and scary.
But then, the old fat gave him a new idea. The lowest failure rate of these devices you sell is 17 percent, blue screen, flower screen, black screen can happen, a lot of lightning resistance performance is almost none, when encountering thunderstorms, it has to be broken.
The boss smiled at this, and he said: "Look at what you said, who wants to ensure that the equipment will not be broken for ten years, I will definitely not sell it." ”
That's for sure, ten years is not bad, then there is still money to be made. As soon as the old fat lowered his head, he sternly told him: "You definitely don't know that there is another way, when you want it to be bad, he will be bad." ”
"Impossible, right?" the boss startled.
The old fat pointed outside: "Try it, you can just take one in, just your few broken brands, I'll get it in thirty seconds." ”
The boss didn't believe in evil, so he tried three different brands, and the boss was excited, and directly shocked the old fat into a celestial person.
"See, this shows that what you sell has strict defects. The old fat said.
"Don't scare me, think I'm illiterate...... Just the thing in your USB drive, how much is it?" The boss stared at the old fat pocket and slammed the door shut.
This is a legendary artifact, just like a gas station that makes the fuel meter run fast, let the meter go slowly, and let the water meter stop and not go...... For example, a thunderstorm can make it more bad...... For example, if you have a maintenance business, wouldn't it be better to find a way to get them to get a new one!"
"Nonsense, just that thing, how much does it cost?" the boss thought about it, for fear of missing out.
"Cash on the goods, I'll tell you where you can find this thing...... On foreign forums, you know, it is more confidential than the H website, which changes places every month. The old fat stern said.
Geng Baolei added: "If you want to keep selling our goods, we will always tell you where to download." ”
The boss was depressed, this is a profiteer to a profiteer, and no one wants to bargain. Unless they all bargain, they can only be negotiated.
Soon, Lao Fat and Geng Baolei left with an order form, and the order for payment was picked up. Out of the door, the two laughed straight into laughter, it is estimated that the boss has already drilled into his nest and started researching, if the monitoring equipment can be sold faster.
"Damn, this method is too damaging, it is equivalent to cultivating countless pitfalls. Geng Baolei said.
"If you don't cultivate, he's enough to pit, haven't you heard of it, one billion people and nine hundred million pits. ”
"What about the remaining 100 million?"
"If you bury the bottom of the pit, someone has to suffer...... Let's go, next. ”
.......................................
.......................................
"That's basically ........."
Wei Qihua told the story, in fact, she only talked about two, has not started to dry, the rest, almost all of them are this group of pit goods in the doing, eleven well-known electronic cities, basically rolled out the goods; three-dimensional security complete sets of equipment, has entered more than 40 professional sales of security equipment stores, follow-up installation workers have been insufficient, this also has a solution, I don't know how Ding Erlei is digging, but also net digging is a skilled hand, now the installation team has swelled to hundreds of people, it stands to reason that such a speed of development will be chaotic, but it is also strange, not chaotic at all, more than a dozen small construction teams, well distributed。
"The construction team should be organized by Lao Ma, he has management experience...... "Mr. Lian sighed slightly, he didn't expect this to be the result, but it can be imagined that these people who are mixed in the capital and are extremely familiar with the three capitals and nine streams can do many unbelievable things.
"I talked to Qiu Di about this, he said that in the initial stage, you must grow savagely, there is no quantity, no one will agree with your quality, the effect of simply using price leverage is limited after all, everyone is using it, and copycat products should have more advantages in this regard. Secretary Wei said, it seems that he has been assimilated.
Mr. Lian sighed again, as if he was endlessly sad and couldn't talk about it.
The profit-seeking behavior of businessmen, who are always subject to moral testing and conscience torture, is nothing more than the choice between the depth and the way of Cheng dù, this is not difficult to make a choice, Mr. Lian got up for a moment, Secretary Wei was still a little nervous and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lian, this matter should have been reported earlier...... But I'm afraid you're too busy and bothered by these little things. ”
"No worries...... Just when I don't know. Mr. Lian put his hands behind his back and walked out.
Secretary Wei behind him, smiling and secretly happy.
"Hey, Xiaowei, come with me and see Qiu Di...... I now understand that the reason why he doesn't hold any position is that he is blindly pragmatic and does not want to be famous. "Mr. Lian said outside the door, and he couldn't hear praise or criticism.
Secretary Wei answered, and quickly followed, this is a market where the winner is king, and the winner is king, and it really doesn't matter whether it is good or bad............
