Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1151 Xiao Wei's Difficulties

Xiao Wei is very good at being a man. After hearing what I said, he immediately changed his smile and said to Ren Xiaoqi: "Mr. Ren, is this your first time in the Northeast?"

Ren Xiaoqi shook his head and replied: "No, I have been to Northeast China before, but I have never been to Changchun! Why do you ask such a question?"

Xiao Wei said with a smile: "Look at the clothes you're wearing. They're out of season. There's nothing wrong with a suit, but in October, you won't be able to handle it in the Northeast. You should wear a windbreaker!"

Ren Xiaoqi smiled and said nothing.

The wine glass was picked up again, and after a few drinks, Ren Xiaoqi couldn't bear it any longer, so he waved his hands and said no more, no more.

We didn't force him, so I asked him, "You don't want to stay in the hotel well, why did you come to me? Experience the sufferings of the world?"

Ren Xiaoqi seemed to have just remembered his purpose, and suddenly realized: "By the way, I'm here to inform you that we have to return to the company as soon as possible in the next few days. My father is going to hold a shareholders' meeting!"

I cut it and said, "Why are we the only ones? Then you just go back, why did you call me?"

Ren Xiaoqi said sincerely: "My dad said that you must attend. This meeting is one to study the next step to deal with the new policy, and the other is to discuss your appointment to the board of directors!"

Xiao Wei and I exclaimed at the same time: "Join the board of directors?"

Ren Xiaoqi hummed and said: "Since Wanzhong wants to cooperate with Haqi, we have to show some sincerity. It will be a matter of time before you join our board of directors!"

Before I could speak, Xiao Wei hurriedly said: "Xiao Fei, you are going to join the board of directors of Harbin Automobile Co., Ltd.? You leap into the dragon's gate! This is great! You are really amazing!"

I curled my lips and said, "There is no free lunch in this world. What is the purpose of letting me join the board of directors? Isn't it just to tie me to your company?"

Ren Xiaoqi is very straightforward, without going around in circles, he nodded his head and said: "Yes, we mean that. My dad and I agree on this point. We both think that in this age, if you want to find a reliable Pu Pu’s partner, it’s really difficult! You are our best partner choice at present, not only have money, but also relationships and abilities!”

Yaoyang looked at me, his eyes narrowed into a smile, and said, "Where did you find this kid? It's too simple, he dares to say anything! It's true! If you didn't say he was Damn, I thought he was an authentic Northeasterner!"

Xiao Wei scratched his head, looked at me and asked, "Is it you who are rich, connected, and capable?"

Ren Xiaoqi asked me in surprise, "Doesn't your brother-in-law know what you do?"

I smiled and said, "I don't know much!"

Ren Xiaoqi snorted and said, "That's no wonder he asked such a question?"

Before Xiao Wei finished asking a question, another new question came up: "Then Mr. Ren, isn't Haqi the Harbin Automobile Factory? Isn't it in Harbin? How could you have never been to the Northeast, you should be in the Northeast what?"

Ren Xiaoqi shook his head and said: "No, our group was indeed taken over from Harbin Automobile Manufacturing Group, but as early as 10 years ago, we moved the headquarters to Hefei, but the name has not been changed. I am an authentic AH person !"

Xiao Wei groaned and said, "I really don't know. I always thought that SAIC belongs to Shanghai, and Harbin Auto belongs to Harbin!"

Yaoyang ignored these, but asked Ren Xiaoqi: "Then what do you think of me? Am I also a qualified and reliable partner?"

Ren Xiaoqi seriously replied: "We have also discussed this issue. First of all, you and Mr. Chen are almost one person, so both you and Mr. Chen can represent Yaoyang, but you cannot represent everyone; secondly, Mr. Chen At present, apart from investing in our company, Yang Industrial will not generate any related business; finally, in your business philosophy, you have no intention of merging, splitting, or acquiring. Capital operation is not your strong point!"

Yaoyang curled his lips and said: "You don't know, is our Yaoyang one of the shareholders of Wanzhong now? And the biggest one!"

Ren Xiaoqi nodded and said, "I know, but I still say that the control of Wanzhong is not in your hands. Even if it is in your hands, we will not cooperate with you!"

Yaoyang was somewhat displeased, I glared at Yaoyang and said: "Okay! If they didn't tell you directly, it's just a face for you! You still care about these things? You, just learn a thousand tricks from the old uncle. I still have something to say to Xiao Qi!"

Although Yaoyang was a little dissatisfied, he still looked at the old uncle with a sense of humor, and Xiao Wei said, "Come on, let's go downstairs and grill some skewers, and don't care about what national affairs they talk about! I can smell the smell, and my mouth is watering." They're all out!"

Of course the old uncle and Xiao Wei understood what Yaoyang meant, and followed Yaoyang downstairs.

Ren Xiaoqi and I said heart-to-heart: "Xiao Qi! Let me make it clear first. If you cooperate with me, you have to take a big risk. You have also seen that the relationship between me and Wei Hua, we will have a war sooner or later. There are too many people and things involved, I don't want you and your company to be involved!"

Ren Xiaoqi said calmly: "I only do my business, I believe in your ability, you can handle it! Besides, I am me and you are you, this has nothing to do with Wei Hua, I don't think it will affect The prospect of our cooperation!"

I shook my head and said: "It will be affected. If we cooperate, there will be competition in the field of automobiles. If you help me, you have to help me, and if you don't help me, you have to help me! You are forced to cooperate with Wei Hua Standing on the opposite side. If you don’t cooperate with me, you will not have such a strong competitor as SAIC. You can slowly transform. I believe that with the scale of your company and your ability, in the automotive industry, it will still be the same Standing firm, and may stand out in this opportunity!"

Ren Xiaoqi thought for a while and said: "I don't think the market will give us so much time. We have considered this issue before. It is better to trust yourself than to trust anyone. But it is not difficult to see from the convening of this meeting that time waits for no one. Ah, our transformation is imminent! If we can’t join forces, we will only be defeated and acquired! FAW and FAW are now eyeing each other. Long before this meeting, they have already approached my dad to discuss mergers and acquisitions. Even if Wei Hua did not appear, SAIC would have the same plan!
According to the market analysis, as long as our company chooses to cooperate with any one of the top three, it may surpass the other two. If it cooperates with Second Automobile, it may dominate the world. If it cooperates with FAW, it will surpass Second Auto. If it cooperates with SAIC, it is Form a tripartite confrontation!
But now it seems that no matter which one of them cooperates with, it is not as good as an independent portal. Of course, if the status quo is maintained, the consequence will be annexation. Therefore, we must seek development, and cooperation with you is our best choice at present up! "

I laughed and said, "So it was premeditated? Did you come up with these words yourself? Or did someone teach you?"

Ren Xiaoqi smiled wryly: "I'm not as stupid as you think, I just don't like to beat around the bush when I talk!"

I nodded in satisfaction and said: "Very well, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

After speaking, I picked up the wine glass and touched Ren Xiaoqi.

After Ren Xiaoqi left, Xiao Wei found me alone, and said to me in a pleading tone: "Xiaofei, I just realized that you have done so well. If you are giving you face like this, then you really help me! I don’t want to work under the hands of the Japanese, can you tell Mr. Ren to let me go to their company?”

I hesitated for a while, actually this is very simple, just a matter of my words, but I was thinking, what can he do when he is gone?Haqi is not a service company. He is not young and has never worked in sales before. He cannot start from scratch and do back office work. He might as well be in the original company. What other positions are suitable for him?

Seeing that I didn't speak, Xiao Wei begged again: "Don't look at me now, I'm pretty on the surface, eat and drink with the leader every day, but I don't have power, I don't have money, and I'm in my 40s. I was worried about earning some extra money, and I was afraid of being found out, and I would lose my job if I accidentally lost my job! Leaders don’t like me, colleagues and colleagues look down on me! Your sister still thinks that I am worthless all day long. I just lack a chance! "

I asked directly: "I let you go to Haqi, what do you think you can do?"

Xiao Wei replied a little excitedly: "I can manage the workshop, I can go to the office to allocate vehicles, and I can drive for their leaders! I am still very reliable in my work!"

I sighed and said, "When will you change your traditional concept? Now there are a few leaders who ask the driver to drive every day? They all drive by themselves, and occasionally they just find a driver when they have social occasions. Sometimes it’s even called a substitute driver! The driver industry, or this profession, is almost extinct except for taxis! You go to the workshop management, do you know the technology? Are you going to learn from scratch? Also, big companies The allocation of vehicles is determined by each department itself, and there is no need for unified management for a long time! Their transportation vehicles are all managed by the logistics company and outsourced. If you want to go to the logistics company, I can introduce it to you. The company in Zhuhai has a logistics company!"

Xiao Wei hesitated and said: "Your sister and I have already discussed whether we should go to Zhuhai to try our luck. I was scolded bloody by your sister. One is that she doesn't want me to cling to you, and the other is that her parents I'm getting old, I have to take care of her, and my mother is here, so it's impossible for the whole family to go to Zhuhai! Zhuhai is too far away!"

I asked with an oh: "Then you can go to Hefei?"

Xiao Wei said embarrassingly: "Going to Hefei is always closer to home. I have made money, so it is better than now. When the end of the year comes, I will be worried. I can't afford the heating bill!"

I asked curiously, "Don't you and my sister both go to work? There are no children at home, where did your money go?"

Xiao Wei sighed and said, "Both my mother and her mother are not in good health. It costs thousands of dollars to see a doctor and take medicine in a month. It costs money! This salary is really not enough!"

I thought for a while and asked, "If you don't have any necessary entertainment, you can avoid it if you can! Have you ever thought about what kind of job you are most suitable for?"

Xiao Wei nodded and said, "I've thought about it, I'm good at socializing, entertaining guests and giving gifts, finding people to handle errands, I'm sure I can do everything, and I'm also good at taking care of people!"

I sneered: "You mean, what kind of assistant are you doing, public relations or something?"

Xiao Wei hummed and said, "Yes, I'm sure I can do well!"

I directly attacked: "You can't do a good job! Do you know what diplomas the current general manager assistants need? Do you know what they want to do? It's not just arranging for the leaders to eat and drink, treat guests and give gifts! That's what the nanny does Things! Now, I will let you stay with Mr. Ren's assistant for a day, and you can see what she has done? If you think you are competent, I will go and talk to Mr. Ren!"

Xiao Wei said confidently: "Okay! I will definitely do it!"

Early the next morning, I called Wu Xinru and told her that a relative of my family wanted to learn how to work as an assistant, and asked her to teach me to follow her for a day, and she readily agreed.

I have interviewed Wu Xinru before, I know her workload, not to mention that Xiao Wei can't learn, even I can't do it, the only purpose I do is to let Xiao Wei recognize himself.On this point, my sister and I reached a consensus, and she talked to me: "Brother, did Xiao Wei look for you?"I've told him several times, but he really didn't listen to me this time, is it troublesome to you? "

I looked at this sensible younger sister, and said earnestly: "Sister, you have worked hard these years, it's not easy, you are the only one who is dealing with the inside and outside! Why don't you tell me about the difficulties!"

The cousin's eyes were a little wet, and she held back her tears and said, "Brother, I'm fine! Isn't everyone living like this?"

I sighed and said, "Does it mean that if I don't open my mouth, you will definitely not beg me?"

The cousin shut her mouth tightly and refused to answer.

I continued: "It's not that I don't help you, it's just that every family is different, and I don't know how to help you is the best way. I can't give you money directly, right? I don't know Xiao Wei's ability either." , this is a chance, you let her try it?"

The cousin smiled through tears: "Thank you brother! I know you love me!"

I patted her head and said: "Don't carry everything by yourself, we are relatives, I'm not that inhumane, I just don't want to interfere with other people's lives, everyone has their own way to go, give me a hand Yes, but it is impossible to accompany you all the way and pave the way for you, even if it is my own children, because it will not go far or long at all!"

The cousin hummed and said, "Brother, I understand!"

At night, I was at Xiao Wei's house, waiting for Xiao Wei to come back, to see if he thought he could do it?
