Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 165 I am going to be famous

Old Feng smiled and said: "The fake disabled beggars on the street can speak and sing. If you think about it carefully, it means that you are born to be a salesman. I advise you to die as soon as possible. You look like that. , I feel far-fetched to say that you are good-looking."

I looked in the mirror and said, "You have pretty features, Xiao Chaowei from Zhuhai is not famous for nothing, have you become presbyopic recently?"

Old Feng said: "I don't have time to be poor with you. There will be an industry summit in Hangzhou the day after tomorrow. Remember to attend and see if anyone wants you."

I resolutely refused: "No, I'm unemployed now, and my name is not right, I won't go, if I go, I will be kicked out."

Lao Feng said impatiently: "Are you bothered? Hurry up, remember, call me the day after tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone.

I looked at Shengnan and said, "Do you think I will go? I haven't had enough fun yet, and I want to stay with you for a few more days."

Sheng Nan looked at me and said, "Your mouth is not right, so stop stretching, pack up your things quickly, and let's go home."

When I got home, I tidied up briefly, but my mother didn't complain about me, she just kept saying that Katsunan had lost weight, and she needed to make up for her.

My mother and I said: "She eats eight meals a day, and she is still thin? Even if you raise a pig, you can kill it now."

Shengnan came up and kicked me and said, "Mom, if you say I'm thin, I'm thin. Why are you talking so much?"

I covered my buttocks and said to my mother: "Mom, you can see that your daughter-in-law hit me."

My mother said exaggeratedly: "Yo, doesn't your foot hurt? Next time you copy someone, don't kick yourself."

I cried bitterly: "Is this still my real mother?" My dad didn't know when he came out from behind and said, "I still remember that winter night when I was walking with your mother..." I Immediately stopped and said: "Okay, okay, you are a family, I picked it up, okay!"

The industry summit in Hangzhou was held in a grand manner, and it was also featured on CCTV news.The Ministry of Industry took the lead and convened nearly 100 large and small companies in the same industry, and also invited some foreign counterparts, and also attracted many people outside the industry.

When I went to Hangzhou, the airport was overcrowded and everyone was in a hurry, but I was more relaxed and wanted to go to the West Lake of Leifeng Pagoda first.

It's a pity that things were not what people wanted. It was as if Lao Feng installed a locator for me. He called as soon as I got out of the airport: "Get off the plane? Take a taxi and come to the Hilton Hotel by the West Lake. It's all here, and I'm waiting for you. "

I said dissatisfied: "I didn't even say that a car will pick me up, I have to take a taxi by myself."

Old Feng said: "The roads are closed everywhere now, and traffic is still restricted. What level do you think you are? You have to be picked up by a car."

When I arrived at the lobby of the Hilton Hotel, a beautiful waitress saw me and asked, "Are you Mr. Chen Fei?"

I decisively replied: "No, you have identified the wrong person." The lady still said politely: "Is that you?" I asked puzzledly: "How do you know I am?"

The lady covered her mouth and said with a smile: "Do you want me to repeat what the guest said?" Although I knew it would not be a good word, I still nodded.

The lady said: "He said, you saw a rough guy with a small crew cut, wearing jeans and a suit jacket. He thought he was handsome. That was Fade Chen. .”

After finishing speaking, he took me directly up to the business suite on the 16th floor.As soon as I opened the door, the smoke in the room rushed out, and I shouted: "Which immortal is cultivating immortals in there? Take away the supernatural powers!" After speaking, I pushed the smoke away and walked in.

Sitting on the sofa were Lao Feng, Lin Jiasheng, and Shen Yang, all of whom were smoking cigars.

Seeing me coming, the three of them continued to smoke their cigars and ignored me.I saw that no one was paying attention to me, so I didn't speak, sat down, searched on the table, but couldn't find the cigar, angrily took out my own cigarette from my pocket, snorted and said, "Please come, I'll do it too." You don’t go out to greet me, you come here to smoke cigars by yourself, and you don’t say leave one for me, who are you all?”

Old Feng finally spoke: "Who made you come so late, we just finished eating the African bowl of wings, if you don't come again, after a while, you won't have a share of the Hangzhou cuisine at night."

I pouted and said: "Corruption, too corrupt, smoking is harmful to health, let's go eat quickly!"

Lin Jiasheng couldn't hold back anymore, he took out a cigar from his pocket and threw it to me with a smile.

Lin Jiasheng skillfully took out the cigar inlay, cut it for me, and took out the straight-flush lighter to light it for me.

Old Feng said: "Old-fashioned!"

I took a sip, choking and coughing, I really can't enjoy this kind of luxury, so I told Lao Feng and the three of them: "I don't know what's so good about this thing, it's just a show, spend money and suffer!"

Old Feng smiled, and then said seriously: "Speaking of business, tomorrow's meeting, Shen Yang is the chairman of the main committee this time, and he wants to find someone to be the spokesperson for the healthy development of the industry and product upgrading and optimization. We will study and study. As long as you have good eloquence and good temperament, we unanimously decided to let you on stage and give you a chance to perform."

I was just about to put out the cigarette, but when he finished speaking, I almost burned my hands, so I hurriedly declined and said, "Don't use me to start a brush, I can't do this, it's okay to be poor down there, but it's really a big scene, I can't do it , I heard that it will be on the CCTV news."

Shen Yang said: "Don't refuse, you have been in the industry for so many years, there are no fewer people in the industry who know you than me and Lao Feng, and your professional knowledge is more solid than ours, plus you have been in the front line of sales , you are also familiar with the current market environment, you are also familiar with various manufacturers, and the most important thing is that you also know your foreign counterparts. Didn’t your speech at the supplier conference of the Ministry of Railways company be published in the industrial newspaper? ?”

Lin Jiasheng also persuaded: "This is a good opportunity for you to show your face. Didn't Wanzhong just abandon you? When you come on stage, isn't it slapping them in the face directly? I see how old Wang and the others will raise their heads among their peers in the future. Sample?"

Having said that, my interest really came, and I thought for a while and said: "Isn't it good to do this? Slap in the face... Hehe, that's it! I'm ready, ready, you said it earlier, I even have a piece of paper." No decent clothes."

Lin Jiasheng said with a smile: "I prepared it for you a long time ago. Armani's suit costs tens of thousands of yuan. I borrowed it from you. Remember to return it!" After speaking, I took out a black suit. After I put it on, I felt straight Made for me.Looking at the mirror again and again, he said, "Why are you so good-looking!"

Let’s play for fun, let’s make fun of it, we can’t make fun of the speech, if the speech is too professional, and I’m afraid many people won’t understand, impatient, if it’s not professional, then it’s just going through the motions, and people won’t be able to leave unprofessional In my impression, Shen Yang gave me a lot of good advice, but the other two just kept booing.

It took me a whole night to write a 30-minute speech, at 4 o'clock in the morning, and I was done.

The next morning, I was woken up by Lao Feng. I didn’t sleep for 4 hours together. I was so sleepy, but there was nothing I could do. I ate breakfast in a hurry, dressed up carefully, and went to the venue with Lao Feng and the others. .

The venue was like a movie awards ceremony. It officially started at 9 o'clock. After getting off the car, I waited in the waiting area. There was a part of walking the red carpet, and then I went to the signing area to sign. For the first time in my life, I felt that I was going to become a celebrity.

It was 9 o'clock, and people walked on the red carpet one after another. When we arrived, the service staff informed us that we could go in. Shen Yang and Lao Feng walked in front, and Lin Jiasheng and I walked behind. Lao Feng turned his head and said to me: " Keep your spirits up and keep your chest out."

Walking on the red carpet, I realized that it was not like other film award ceremonies. Many fans were standing outside the fence cheering, shouting, taking pictures, and waving. There were basically no one. There were only two or three cameras. Waving, pretending to be chic, there is no chance at all.

I hurriedly walked across the red carpet, signed my autograph, and entered the formal meeting place.

The layout of the venue is magnificent, but it is always the same. There is a large LED screen in the center, many chairs with backrests under the stage, and a microphone on a podium on the stage.

I was taken to a right-hand seat in the second row, and I noticed that each seat had a name.I saw the names of Mr. Wang and Mr. Li, but I didn't see Liu Ziran's name next to them.

People came in one after another.I saw many acquaintances, and I greeted them politely.

Mr. Li walked in with a beautiful woman about her age. When they saw me, they immediately greeted me and said, "A Fei, I didn't expect you to come. I thought you didn't come back from a trip."

I smiled and said, "Come and join in the fun."

Mr. Li introduced the beauties around him and said: "Do you still remember the article "On the Rise and Decline of China's Industrial Development" in the Industrial Daily? This is the author Lu Chenyu, my college classmate and my best friend."

I hastily stretched out my hand and said, "I've read your article, it's very profound, thorough, and educated."

Lu Chenyu shook hands with me and said, "You are Fade Chen. You have known your name for a long time, but you have always only heard his name and never seen him. Today, you see a real person."

I politely said, "Isn't it better to be famous than to meet?"

Lu Chenyu said with a smile: "A person is like his name, and a person is like his name."

I asked Mr. Li: "Why don't you see Mr. Wang?"

Mr. Li frowned and said: "It should be here, and I don't know who I met with Liu Ziran."

I groaned and didn't say anything more.

At 10 o'clock, the meeting officially started. The host first introduced some of the leaders present. One of them has a relatively high official position, so I won't go into details here. In short, it caused quite a stir.

The host wanted to ask this leader to come up to speak, but because this was an unofficial and formal organization meeting, although the Ministry of Industry took the lead, it was also an unofficial nature, so he didn't come up to speak.
