Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 279 Indecision
After sleeping drowsily for a while, when he woke up the next morning, He Shengnan had a quick breakfast and went to work without saying a word.

When I arrived at the company, I saw a group of construction workers tearing down the company's gate. I walked through the dusty door with difficulty and walked inside.

Half of the office is separated by a plastic panel, and the other half, all the people, are crowded inside to work.

Seeing me coming, they greeted me one after another, and I took out the gifts brought back from the Northeast and distributed them.

My office has not yet started construction, Mr. Li and Xiao Wan are in my office, discussing something.

Seeing me come in, Mr. Li said, "You're back? Why are you getting such big dark circles? Didn't you sleep well yesterday?"

I hummed without explaining, and asked, "Is there someone from Lvshuiyuan downstairs? When will it be finished? Will it not affect the work?"

Mr. Li replied: "Estimated to be three months, we will move to the factory to work in a few days? Are you going back to the group office, or come with us? If you come with us, I will ask someone to clean up for you out of the office."

I thought for a while and said, "I'll go there with you. I'm flustered when I see the leader every day in the group."

Xiaowan and Mr. Li both observed me, and I didn’t smile at all since I came in. They knew that I must be in a bad mood, and they didn’t make any jokes. Xiaowan and I reported: “The Japanese came to improve the equipment. The control system does not need to be close to the production line. I inquired about it. Originally, this control system was on the original equipment in Japan, but it was dismantled when it arrived in China. The trickiness of it is self-evident! "

I snorted and said, "Xiaowan, try to find a way to calculate how much this equipment sells in Japan, how much is it different from ours? How much is this control system? It’s not that easy to take advantage of others!”

Mr. Li reacted and said: "Let me take care of this matter. Xiao Wan has been exhausted during this period of time. She is alone in the workshop, and there are always people coming to make troubles in the group. You are not here, so it is really useless." A backbone!"

What did I suddenly think of?Asked: "Who in the group has come here to make trouble?"

Mr. Li thought for a while and said: "The first person who bears the brunt must be Gou Wenhua, who uses Mr. Zhu's power to issue orders to me every day; secondly, the people on Mr. Yi's side. Mr. Yi is now supervising the company's production safety. There have been no safety accidents, so we must check and check ourselves; there is also Mr. Zhang, the financial manager, who comes to check our accounts from time to time, but Sister Mo's accounts are clear, and they haven't found anything. Oh, By the way, Mr. Chen has been here a few times, but he didn't come here to cause trouble, he also told me about the group and reminded me who I should pay attention to."

I yelled and said, "Mr. Chen? Are you here to show our goodwill? It seems that we are not fighting alone, we still have allies!"

At this time, someone knocked on the door, and Xiaohua stood at the door with a person who looked like an engineer. When he saw me coming back, he said to me enthusiastically: "Mr. Chen, I'm back. This is the designer of Lvshuiyuan. I want to see you next time." you."

I nodded and said, "Come in, please."

The designer took out a roll of drawings, put them on the table, spread them out, and said, "The leader of the company told you to take a look at the overall design plan. If there is any dissatisfaction, do you want us to modify it? "

Mr. Li asked curiously: "Didn't you already buy this place? The original owner notified us that your company is now our landlord. How to decorate this house is up to you. How can you ask our opinion? "

The designer replied: "Accordingly, it is so, but the leader of the group ordered so, and said that during our renovation period, the rent is not counted, Mr. Chen, you should take a look at our design, there are What are your dissatisfaction?"

Mr. Li may not know what's going on, but I know it very well in my heart.

I nodded, and then asked him to explain to me the overall structure and design ideas.

After listening to his explanation, I exclaimed in amazement: "How did you come up with such an advanced design scheme? It is convenient for office work and saves space. It is stylish, beautiful, and atmospheric. It is worthy of a first-class team and a first-class enterprise."

The designer hastily said: "I didn't design this, it was designed by the design department of our group leader. It looks like Mr. Du designed it. However, it is estimated that she will not intervene in such a small project."

I hummed and said, "Anyway, it's thanks to you all. We may move out in a few days. We'll come back when you finish the decoration!"

The designer said gratefully: "We are really worried. The group asked us to carry out renovations without disturbing your office. This is all right. Our construction progress can be accelerated a lot!"

When the designer walked out, I added another sentence: "Give your group leaders a message, I will remember everything I have done for our company!"

Afterwards, we went to the factory for a walk, and the green water garden opposite us had already started construction, and it was in full swing. I casually took a look to see if Du Shiyang was there.

Our equipment has already begun to produce the first generation of bladeless fans. The products have been released several times, but they all have various product qualities. We have not produced the best products. It can be seen that the art workers are very headache. When we used to , the art worker squatted next to the equipment, looking at the various indicators, scratching his head with his hands, and with a full beard, he looked like he hadn't slept for a few days.

I felt sorry for him, so I walked over and patted him on the shoulder. He raised his head, saw me coming, and said to me with a bitter face: "Mr. Chen, I failed your expectations. It's been a week, and the product is still the same. Such a problem will never achieve the good quality of the product.”

I waved my hand and pointed to the office, meaning to go to the office and say, it's too noisy here, I can't hear it at all.

When I got to the office, I said to Wengong: "Thank you, Wengong!"

The literary worker shook his head and did not speak.

I encouraged and said: "Wengong, it's okay, take your time, the interlacing is like a mountain, besides, it is not your responsibility alone if the quality of this product does not improve. This fan is a new type of fan, so you may be able to do it once you try it." If it is successful, we still have time to train more technical backbones, our company is willing to pay for this, and rewards heavily, as long as it contributes to the company, we will reward!"

The literary worker nodded.

Then I asked Xiaohua: "Where is Bao'er now?"

Xiaohua replied: "It should be in Hangzhou, and the people in the sales department are all in their own area, waiting for our fan to come out and put it on the market immediately."

I picked up the phone and called Bao'er: "Bao'er, are you still in Hangzhou?"

Baoer said at the other end: "Yes, I have negotiated for several major shopping malls here. As soon as our products are launched, we will promote them here first. I have signed contracts for the counters in the mall. The billboards at the entrance of the mall It's also decided, and the advertising department's planning plan has also come out, and I'll pass it on to you in a while, let's make one."

I asked Bao'er: "Are you planning to promote it on a large scale?"

Bao'er asked hesitantly: "Master, what do you mean? Don't you plan to make a big splash? Instead, enter the market quietly? You have no confidence in our products?"

I thought for a while and said, "Yeah, once the first shot fails, it will never recover, and it will be difficult to promote the following products."

Bao'er said with some resentment: "Master, I have done so much homework, and now you tell me not to promote it in a large area. My previous work was wasted, and the advertising planning fee was wasted. Master, you have to be right. I have confidence!"

I'm actually not sure what to do?He hesitated and said, "You can pass the advertisement version over to have a look first, and I'll think about it later."

After looking at the advertisement, one is a child who was caught in the hand by the blades of the fan and kept crying. His mother changed to a bladeless fan, and the child was happy and circled around the fan.The ad looks silly, but it works well, highlighting the features of our product.

The other is a child who was studying for the college entrance examination was reviewing homework in hot weather. A very noisy fan was blowing nearby. The child plugged his ears, but he was still restless. The parents had to turn off the fan and fan the child to cool down. .At this time, grandparents brought a bladeless fan, and the child calmed down and began to study seriously.

In my opinion, the two advertisements are almost the same. I can't say how attractive they are, but they are just passable.

If I were a consumer, would I be tempted?I don't have kids and it's hard for me to empathize.

In addition, I looked at the pricing. An electric fan costs 230 yuan. At this price, you can buy several ordinary small fans. Will consumers pay for it?
I've been listening to advice from all sides all day, and I'm still hesitant about what to do with this fan.

When I first had this idea and made this fan, I was still full of confidence. I believed that once it came out of the market, there would be a buying boom.But the closer I get to the day when the product goes on the market, the more uncertain I feel.

When I got off work, I didn't even think about what I should do. Everyone in the company was waiting for me to make a decision, but at this time, I had no idea. I didn't know what I was afraid of?failed?Why were you not afraid before?Because no one is behind me, backing me up, once I fail, it will be beyond redemption.

In the past at Wanzhong Electrician, I acted recklessly and did whatever I wanted, because I knew that Lao Feng was behind me, but now?Once I fail, Dong Zong behind me will not be able to help me at all, let alone whether she is willing to help me, even if she is willing to help me, will the group let me go?
But what if it fails?The big deal is to be kicked out of the crowd again, and to start all over again.

When doing things, those who are afraid of wolves and tigers are hesitant and can't do anything in the end.

In the evening, I took Shengnan to Lin's home. When Lin's wife saw me, she showed a long-lost smile on her face that had never been happy, angry, sad, or happy.

After letting me and Katsuo in, I went to work in the kitchen.
