Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 1190 Whereabouts of Daqing

Team Zhang forcefully asked, "Have you traded yet?"

Master Ding shook his head and said: "No, it's winter, who will pull the wood for them! Besides, the forest farm has been closed for a few years, and logging is not allowed!"

Team Zhang asked: "How many days have you lived at your place, and how many people are there?"

Master Ding replied: "No, I told them that logging is not allowed. If they don't believe me, they will go to the forest farm by themselves. I didn't stop them, so they left!"

Everything was said to be seamless, I had already thought about it, and there was nothing I could do about it.

Team Zhang and Team Xie glanced at each other and walked out together.

After Team Zhang came out, he said: "This is not the way. If he doesn't speak, we won't be able to determine Daqing and their whereabouts. The longer it takes, the harder it will be for us to track them down!"

Then he asked me, "Where do you think they can go?"

I hesitated for a moment and said, "The most likely thing is that I have entered the mountain. It should be too late to find someone to chase after me now!"

Team Xie objected: "It's snowing heavily, who dares to enter the mountain? They won't be able to get out after entering!"

Team Zhang asked, "Has no one ever entered the mountain this season?"

Team Xie replied: "Yes, there are, but they are all mountain patrollers! They have a few fixed rest stops on the mountain for the maintenance of communication towers!"

I suggested: "Two leaders, do you think this is okay? Find someone to see if the mountain patrollers in the town are still there? If they are, ask them to help you go to the mountains. If not, ask where they went , when did you disappear? I suspect that they may have been tied up to the mountain together, or it may be that Master Ding gave him money and threatened and lured him! As for this Master Ding, didn’t he say anything? It’s easy to deal with, find Sister Bing Come and confront him, let them bite dogs, and they can always bite out something!"

When the two captains heard it, they felt that it made sense, so they immediately started to do it. As for the gains, I don't know.

After going back, I discussed with Xiao Hei and the others, and decided whether we should also go into the mountain to have a look.

Zhuzi objected: "There are wild animals in the deep mountains and old forests. It is not worthwhile to be bitten to death by wild animals if you don't freeze to death! Besides, there is no need for us to do this kind of thing by ourselves, right? When we get there, let’s try to be at ease, if we don’t catch them, they have already crossed the border, and they won’t disturb us in the future, let’s go back to the south!”

Brother Kui also said: "Yeah, He Tian and the others were all arrested, and Wei Hua probably ran away soon, and we can be regarded as a complete victory. We just need to make money in a down-to-earth manner in the future! These things have nothing to do with them Big!"

Only Xiao Hei shook his head and said, "At least we have to make sure whether Daqing and the others have gone into the mountains and are going to smuggle across the border. If so, then it's okay, if not? He's going to shoot back, we have no defense at all. At that time, we will be passive! No matter what time it is, we must know where they are? If you want to live, you need to see people, and if you die, you need to see corpses!"

I thought what Xiao Hei said was reasonable, so I agreed: "Xiao Hei is right! Otherwise, it has always been a problem for us, we have chased here, and the last point is not far behind! We will not go far , just go into the mountain to see the situation, make sure if it is on the mountain, let's go!"

2 to 2, no one could convince anyone, and it took another day, except to ask Team Zhang about their progress, and did nothing.

Everything in the new urban area is still operating normally, and the person in charge has been arrested, but there is no trace of chaos.

On the other hand, at the chemical factory, as soon as the Fei family brothers were arrested, the workers immediately went on strike and asked for wages. The town government here tried to appease the workers while looking for someone to take over.

Team Zhang didn't know which leader he agreed to, so he begged me and asked me to think of a way.

What can I do?I found out the contact information of all the shareholders of the chemical plant, and called them one by one to ask. Only then did I know that this so-called chemical company is a foreign investment, a joint venture?The registered capital is all fake. Except for the boss Fei and the second child who are shareholders, the rest are fake identities. This factory is just an empty shell, except for refining a little bit of asphalt, it is just a fraudulent account.

What account?Naturally, it was the accounts of some invisible people on Master Ding's side.

I checked carefully, and most of the money was transferred to Ding Ye, a trading technology company, all in the name of paying for raw materials.

I looked at the income again, and it was almost all income from selling asphalt, but there were many problems with the sale of asphalt, and the quantity and amount did not match.

According to the account number of Dingye trading company that I transferred out, I quickly found out the private money of Dingye. After handing it over to Team Zhang, Team Zhang immediately found a breakthrough. According to Lord Ding, he and Daqing are uncles and nephews In fact, Master Ding didn’t really recognize this nephew, but after meeting him, he did look too much alike. It was his younger brother’s day. His younger brother went out to work many years ago. This time he came to see him mainly because I want to hang out with him.

Master Ding had no children all his life, so he just took this opportunity to pass on his mantle to Daqing.

It's a pity that after a few days of good life, Boss Fei came over to make trouble, and in the end both sides were hurt. Master Ding was afraid that there would be no way to deal with it, so he called the police.

But no matter what, Master Ding didn't tell Daqing's whereabouts, he just said that he helped Daqing buy a lot of warm equipment and dry food.

Needless to say, I knew that Daqing and the others were going up the mountain.

The first team had already chased up the mountain, because the patrol personnel had indeed disappeared, and they probably were kidnapped by them.

Then the second team set off immediately, and I petitioned to go with me, but after being severely criticized by Team Zhang, I had no choice but to give up my idea.

Harbin Auto's new generation of new energy vehicles is about to be launched, so I have no reason to waste time here, so I asked Team Zhang to notify me as soon as there is news, and Xiao Hei and I flew to Harbin Auto's headquarters. Zhuzi returned to Zhuhai.

The debut of the first new energy vehicle still attracted a lot of media attention. When I first saw the appearance of this car, I almost scolded it.

This car is not so ugly. I thought it would have a technological appearance. Even if it is not so advanced, at least it will not be so old-fashioned. The new car has a total of 3 colors, red, blue, and white, all of which are solid colors. Without a little color difference, it feels too bright and has no texture.The appearance is like a turtle shell, and it cannot be described as small, it is simply aggrieved.

The interior is not good either, it is obviously a leather seat, but it looks like imitation leather. The only bright spot is the super large control panel, but it is pressed in such a small car.

I blamed Ren Xiaoqi and said, "What kind of design is this? Beetle? This car can seat 2 people in total. It looks like a toy. It's smaller than my first car, the Honda Fit. At such a high price, Just make this thing and sell it for more than 20 yuan, who will buy it?"

Ren Xiaoqi explained confidently: "We have talked about this a long time ago. First of all, our car is already the cheapest new energy car in the world. Moreover, with the same performance, our price-performance ratio is the highest! Our This car is positioned as a means of transportation, suitable for the elderly, housewives, and working people who have just graduated and started working!"

I was still very dissatisfied and said: "To make a car, it's not grand at all, I guess your car will be difficult to sell, but let's sell it according to the market position you said. It will be better when the second generation comes out!"

But the market is really hard to predict. No one would have guessed that this car, which I am the least optimistic about, received orders like snowflakes within a week after its launch, and received rave reviews. It was named the most innovative car of the year by China Automobile Magazine vehicle.

Ren Xiaoqi proudly put the monthly sales report in front of me and said, "Look at it for yourself and explain one thing. It seems that your vision is not good enough!"

I stared at the report for a long time, and asked, "Why doesn't the sales quantity match the sales amount?"

Ren Xiaoqi snorted and said: "These are all deposits. For our 4S stores, each store reports the number of reservations. The deposit shall prevail. Whoever pays first will get the car. Of course, basically every 4S store can Even to a few units!"

I frowned and asked, "Is it so average? Doesn't any store ask for a lot?"

Ren Xiaoqi turned on the computer, although he didn’t understand what I meant, but he searched carefully, then pointed to the computer and said to me: “The Southwest Chengdu store orders the most, if it’s 48 units, if the Guangzhou main store in South China has 35 stores, There are basically around 10 in other stores! What’s wrong? Do you think there is any problem?”

I thought for a while and asked, "What if they don't want this car?"

Ren Xiaoqi smiled and replied: "What's the matter? The deposit is confiscated, and we just transfer it to other stores! No one is so stupid as to not want the deposit of 1 yuan, so just give it to us for nothing?"

I think about it too, but my intuition tells me that there is always something wrong?
So, I asked again: "When will the full payment be paid?"

Ren Xiaoqi replied: "The order for the model has already been placed in the workshop, and the first batch will be ready to be delivered in a week! When the time comes, you will pay with one hand and deliver the car with the other!"

I said nervously, "A week? How long will it take for all these orders to be completed?"

Ren Xiaoqi looked at the production plan and replied: "3 weeks! Of course it is impossible to stop. If there is no order, we have to make more inventory. Otherwise, the stock will be out of stock, and it will be bad if we are hungry marketing!"

I asked again: "Could it be that our marketing policy has recently focused on new energy vehicles? How about the sales of traditional vehicles?"

Ren Xiaoqi hastily explained: "Because we have put a lot of effort into the promotion this time, and the points for 4S are very high. Of course, they mainly sell new energy vehicles, and the sales of traditional vehicles will definitely drop!"

I said worriedly: "Have you ever thought that once your new energy vehicles cannot be sold, traditional vehicles will also be affected. At that time, it will be a dilemma! We should ensure the original sales volume and then promote new models." Ah! I'm afraid that you will lose your wife and lose your army!"

Ren Xiaoqi said with some displeasure: "The orders are already placed, what are you worried about? Did you find something wrong?"

I shook my head and said: "That's right! The normal procedure is like this, but I just think it is difficult for our model to be popular in the market. Although I don't know cars very well, as an ordinary Consumers, I don’t think I’d be interested in buying more than 20 yuan!”

Ren Xiaoqi said with a smile: "That's because you not only own a car, but also the price of the car is no longer important to you! But our target customer group is the general public, white-collar workers, and couples at home. They have to go to work, and their wives have to send their children to school and buy groceries at home. For this kind of human beings, the car should not be too bad, because women also want to save face, not too good, because it is already the second car. It is fuel-efficient and light. Once and for all, there is almost no need to pay any more money! Workers are under a lot of pressure, rushing to the bus every day, afraid of being late, afraid of overtime, and if they work overtime, they will not be able to catch up with the last ordinary subway. Buying our car is not stressful, and there is no need to pay for gasoline Worried, gritted your teeth and bought it back, will it solve all the problems. So, buying one of our cars will meet most of their needs, you said, can our car not sell well? "

After listening to his explanation, I think it is quite reasonable. Maybe I am worrying unnecessarily. The appearance of the car is not that important. The cost-effectiveness is king. Besides, what looks bad to me doesn’t mean it doesn’t look good to others. .

A week passed, and the first batch of cars was ready to be delivered, but no one came to pick up the car for a long time. I called the 4S store to ask about the situation, and said that the person who made the deposit did not come to pick up the car.It's understandable that one or two didn't come, but why didn't these car owners come to pick up the car?When you buy a car, don't you always drive home as soon as you see the car?

I felt uneasy again, and I immediately said to Ren Xiaoqi: "Immediately call the people below, and call one by one to ask what's going on, and why don't you come to pick up the car when the time comes? If you don't answer the phone, just Go to the door to check it yourself, look for it, and you must find the reason for me as soon as possible, and you can't delay it for a minute!"

Ren Xiaoqi seemed to think that the situation was not that serious, and said with a smile: "Why are you so nervous? Isn't it the first day? There must not be many people coming to pick up the car!"

I scolded: "Fart! What is your mentality when you buy a new car? Are you not in a hurry? There must be something wrong here!"

Ren Xiaoqi hummed, it seemed that he didn't care too much, but he knew my temper, so he had no choice but to do as I said.

The people below probably thought that I made a big fuss and didn't implement it right away. They were all sitting at home waiting to pick up the car, and they would take the initiative to come to find customers. Most people were very reluctant and didn't implement it immediately.

I waited for an hour, but no one came up with the screening. I couldn't hold back and asked Ren Xiaoqi: "Why didn't anyone give feedback?"

Ren Xiaoqi picked up the phone, wanting to deal with me, so he made a hasty call.
