Confessions of a Salesman

Chapter 283 The Birth of an Actor

Mr. Zhu stood up and paced hesitantly. Mr. Yi couldn’t say anything more at the moment. I gave Mr. Dong a look, and Mr. Dong understood it and said: “Since it’s already like this, the equipment has also come in, and the products are all ready. Come out and find a way to make up for it.”

I said embarrassingly: "Mr. Dong, you have seen the situation. It's not that I don't want to find a solution. It's just that there is a problem with the product itself. No matter how good the sales are, I can't sell it!"

Mr. Zhu looked at me and said: "There must be more solutions than difficulties. If there are difficulties, you must overcome them yourself."

Mr. Yi quickly followed up and said: "Yes, there must be a way. You can't invest in a piece of equipment for nothing. If it hasn't produced any output, just stop it and use it?"

Dong Zong blamed me and said: "Then why did you buy this equipment in the first place? Why didn't you do a good job of market research before? Spending such a big price to buy a piece of equipment that is useless at all, how should you bear this responsibility?" ?”

I said innocently: "Mr. Dong, when I got this equipment, I was studying outside. I didn't know at all. I didn't shirk responsibility, but I really didn't know. When I came back to find out, the equipment had already started testing. .”

Dong Zong refused to let me go, and said, "I don't know, it means that you don't have enough control over the company. Why didn't anyone report to you?"

I wanted to explain, but Mr. Dong waved his hand and said, "There's no need to explain. Then why didn't you stop when you knew that the products produced by the equipment were not good? You still have to wait for the products to come out. You didn't come to tell us until now?"

I said angrily: "It's not me explaining. When I went to study, I didn't have a chance to answer the phone. I only found out when I returned to the company during the 5-day vacation. I also asked the following people, and you, Mr. Dong, personally approved the reply." Yes, how dare I object? Besides, there is still a way to salvage the product of this equipment, and you just blame me blindly without listening to me, isn't it a little unreasonable?"

Hearing this, Mr. Zhu said sharply: "Are you too presumptuous? How can you talk to Mr. Dong? I decide about the equipment! Do you have any opinions? Everyone is responsible for this kind of product, and no one is responsible for it. No need to shirk, since you have a way, hurry up and find a way to remedy it!"

I felt very wronged, and said aggrievedly: "I know, I will try my best to remedy it, but recently the company has a shortage of funds, and the equipment in the R&D center has been delayed, and I can't improve the equipment. Approve some money and solve my urgent need!"

Mr. Zhu pointed at me and said, "To make such a big circle, you are here to have a fast with me? The money can be given to you, but you have to pay it back. If you can't get results, I will be the first to take you out!"

Dong Zong added: "One hundred million is about to go in one after another. I haven't seen any results, and even caused me trouble. If you are capable, you can do it for me. If you can't do it, leave me immediately. Don't make excuses for me in the future, what I want is the result, the result, I don't care about the process!"

Mr. Yi heard something from the side, and said: "Doesn't the group have a R&D center? Why do you need a separate R&D center? You just go directly to the group's R&D center. Why spend that money?"

I hurriedly explained: "Boss Yi, our R&D center is completely different from the group's. Besides, the group's R&D center is now fully occupied, so there is our place, and the factory is far away from the group. It’s inconvenient. Besides, we had a research and development center when we originally planned it. It’s just that we’re short of funds because of the extra Japanese equipment. Didn’t the group check and post the accounts? It’s clear. If you don’t believe me, you can Ask Mr. Zhang."

When he talked about the Japanese equipment, Mr. Yi seemed to have something to hide, as if he had been stepped on a painful spot, so he stopped objecting.

After Mr. Zhu and Mr. Yi left, I went back to the carbine and came to Mr. Dong's office, and said with a smile: "Leader, my acting skills are not exaggerated, right?"

Mr. Dong smiled and said: "They are all human beings, and I don't know if I can fool them. By the way, are you confident that you can make this rice cooker?"

I nodded and said: "I have studied it, and there are indeed shortcomings. However, it can be slightly improved. One-button control, one button can meet various functional needs. It is actually very simple, just a little bit in the program. Improvements are enough. In addition, the promotion outside can start at any time. They are holding back their energy. They are not allowed to charge. Now they are very dissatisfied with me. As long as I blow the charge, the battle can start at any time.

In addition, I think the fan and rice cooker will be launched at the same time, and the response will be good. No matter which product drives the product, there will always be one that can be sold. Next, I will go to the national market, first to Yiwu Take that piece, take down the foreign trade, and earn some money from the foreign fur devils. "

Mr. Dong smiled and said: "The idea is good, but I don't know if it can be realized. You should apply for the money as soon as possible. Judging from the current situation, Mr. Zhu's attitude is not clear. Mr. Yi has made it clear that the gunfire will be against me. Next If he can't bring you down in one step, he will win you over, so you can figure it out yourself?"

I said embarrassingly: "You don't need to engage in infernal affairs, right? I think Mr. Yi is just like that. He can't bring me down this time, and he won't have much chance in the future. Find someone who can't help him, and I think he will soon Is Qian Donkey at the end of his skills?"

Mr. Dong shook his head and said: "Mr. Yi has been in the group company for many years, and his roots are deep-rooted. Many of his direct descendants have waved their flags and shouted loudly. We should be careful in everything. If you can avoid confrontation, don't confront it. Wait. If you have really made small appliances, it will not be too late to compete with him."

I nodded and said, "Got it, then I'll go back first, by the way, I want to ask, President Chen...?"

Dong Zong looked at me and said, "If you shouldn't know, don't know!"

Back at the company, I called Mr. Li and said: "The control panel of the electric rice cooker will be technically transformed immediately, and all the products that were originally distributed to the market will be taken back. After the transformation, it will be re-launched on the market. market."

In the evening, I called Mr. Li, took Mr. Lin, Guizai, and her little teacher, Sheng Nan, to the restaurant for dinner.

It's the first time Mr. Lin and the others have come here, and they wonder why I brought them to such a remote place for dinner.

Brother Zeng came out wearing an apron, first saw Mr. Li, and immediately grinned at Mr. Li with his big white teeth bared.

I looked at Brother Zeng's foolishness, and acted like a fool, Brother Zeng gave me a stare.

Holding the menu, he walked up to me, threw the menu on the table, and asked blankly, "What do you want to eat?"

I said dissatisfiedly: "What's your attitude? Is there anyone who greets guests like this?"

Brother Zeng said without raising his eyelids: "What attitude? With this attitude, do you like to eat or not?"

Mr. Lin frowned, and when he was about to speak, Katsuo said domineeringly, "Do you still want to do it? The big shop is bullying customers? Believe it or not, I will complain to you?"

Brother Zeng said indifferently: "Where do you fall in love and complain, where do you go to complain, I won't serve you anymore! Go to the back kitchen to cook. I can tell you that today the chef is on vacation, and I am the only one here." , if I’m not happy, none of you can eat it!”

I stood up and said, "Don't mess with me, I'm not happy! Believe it or not, the shop was smashed by you!"

Brother Zeng snorted and said, "You can do whatever you want, whoever doesn't smash it is the grandson, there are still two rooms on the other side of my street, you smash it together, I don't want to do it here anymore!"

Mr. Li smiled and said: "Okay, Brother Qiang, stop making trouble, I will help you!"

Elder Lin saw it at this moment, Brother Zeng and I both smiled, then Elder Lin remembered, and scolded: "Aren't you kidding me? I thought there was going to be a fight!"

After finishing speaking, he patted Shengnan's head and said, "Even you play tricks on me, right?"

Sheng Nan hurriedly begged for mercy: "Old Lin, don't dare anymore, I won't dare again in the future!"

I looked at Brother Zeng and said, "You said you are a big man, like a resentful woman, what are you complaining about?"

Brother Zeng said dissatisfiedly: "I'm all gone on vacation, so I'm left alone. Why? I can't have my own private life?"

I smiled and asked: "Who do you want to have a private life with? You tell me, if you can tell, I will give you a month off!"

Brother Zeng blushed and said, "You give me a break? What are you going to eat? Go get it yourself!"

Guizai's little teacher also came to understand and asked me: "Is this the restaurant you opened yourself? Is it such a large scale?"

I nodded and said, "It's not mine either. I'm a minority shareholder. This is one of the bosses. The big boss is abroad and hasn't come back yet."

I asked Guizai again, "How is school doing recently? Are you keeping up?"

Guizai hesitated and said, "It's okay, I will finish my homework, and I can ask my sister when I come back tonight."

I nodded and asked the little teacher again: "How far is Guizai's music level?"

The little teacher said hesitantly: "I just learned the pronunciation of the basic notes, and the next step is to teach him the staff."

I said: "Thank you!"

After finishing speaking, he took Elder Lin for a walk, and Elder Lin sighed, "Why didn't I know this place before? The environment is so nice, it must be very comfortable to live here!"

I said: "Then you can move here. There is a VIP building in the backyard, which is for us to live in. You can go fishing, feed chickens, and cook if you like. It's the best place to recuperate from illness." .”

Mr. Lin thought for a while and said, "I won't cause you any trouble, will I?"

I laughed and said, "How come, I'm not used to speaking so politely!"

Elder Lin smiled and said, "Got it, got it!"

Mr. Lin finally agreed to move to the restaurant. When I showed him around the backyard, I happened to see the little boy whom I hadn’t seen for a long time, that very polite little boy, the son of the beautiful landlady.

Little boy is carefully observing the rearing poultry.

Seeing us coming, the little boy raised his head and asked Mr. Lin: "Grandpa, why are the toes of some animals not connected together, but the toes of geese are connected together?"
