Countercurrent 1982

Chapter 855
On November 11th, the Autumn Canton Fair was held as scheduled.

On the first day of the opening, the flow of people was very large. Compared with the past, Duan Yun participated in two Canton Fairs. This time, both the scale of exhibitors and the number of foreign merchants have increased a lot.

In the sixth year of reform and opening up, as the largest foreign trade window in China, the influence of the Canton Fair in the world is growing. Another obvious change is that in the past, foreign businessmen mainly focused on the energy and light industry and textile fields of the Canton Fair. Nowadays, more and more foreign businessmen are turning their attention to Chinese industrial products.

In fact, domestic industrial products are still in a primary state, and the technological added value of the products produced is low, but fortunately, the state's subsidies are increasing, which also makes some low-end industrial products in China have international reputation. The price advantage is obvious, so at this Canton Fair, the number of merchants entering the machinery exhibition hall has increased significantly.

The ability of the Chinese people to imitate is very strong. Whether it is product technology or business means, they can follow the gourd and learn it well.

Duan Yun’s promotion method of "beauty plus coffee" used in the previous two exhibitions has been imitated by other exhibitors. Many exhibitors in the machinery hall have also brought some young and beautiful young women as their products. The representatives of the manufacturers were dressed very fashionable, and there was a small table for receiving guests in front of almost every booth, with coffee pots and coffee cups on it, and flowers in the middle, which looked very fresh.

Moreover, these young female factory representatives have obviously undergone some training. They always have a smile on their faces and can speak some simple spoken English.

But even so, the booth of Duan Yun Labor Service Company is still the most popular place in the entire machinery hall.

The reason is also very simple, because Duan Yun has already attracted the attention of the leaders of the Canton Fair Organizing Committee after he broke the record twice before and won the largest order from the Machinery Hall, so this time he was still arranged for the largest and most conspicuous exhibition location , after foreign merchants enter, they can see Duan Yun's booth immediately.

In addition, compared to the last spring Canton Fair, Yu Shulan and Zhang Xiulan's oral English level has risen to a higher level again, and they can even reach the level of a simple conversation with foreign guests. Compared with other booths, this will only be "" Hello" is indeed a great advantage for a female factory representative who speaks simple and spoken words.

The most important thing is that the smooth delivery of the first two foreign trade orders gave Duan Yun's Longteng gearbox products a certain reputation and reputation abroad, so this time the Canton Fair started, and many repeat customers came again. In the morning, Duan Yun won foreign trade orders of 270 million US dollars, most of which were contributed by old customers.

At the same time, Cheng Qingyan, who participated in the Canton Fair for the first time, also started her "first show" at the Canton Fair in the home appliance exhibition hall.

Although she has undergone rigorous training from the organizing committee of the Canton Fair and her husband Duan Yun has taught her a lot of experience, it is the first time for Cheng Qingyan to participate in this kind of national-level foreign trade exhibition, and Cheng Qingyan seems a bit conservative.

This time, Tianyin Electronics Factory and the three state-owned electronics factories in Daxing formed "Daxing Electronics" to participate in the Canton Fair. After all, in this era, it is still very difficult for private companies to participate in the Canton Fair, except for a small number of As a Sino-foreign joint venture, Duan Yun's private electronics factory is a special case to be able to participate in the Canton Fair. This requires special approval from the provincial government, and it must be covered with a layer of state-owned enterprise "skin" before it can participate in the auto exhibition.

Today, Cheng Qingyan strictly complied with the requirements of the organizing committee, wearing a clean lady's suit, and did not deliberately make up. The whole dress looks very plain. This is also the clothing image requirement for the female representatives of manufacturers during the training of the Canton Fair organizing committee. .

However, when Cheng Qingyan entered the home appliance exhibition hall, she found that many of the representatives of other manufacturers in the exhibition hall were young women. Actress models in movie magazines are average.

In fact, Duan Yun had already made arrangements for Cheng Qingyan to make up and dress up, but Cheng Qingyan was obviously too "honest" and always felt that she could not violate the regulations of the Canton Fair Organizing Committee, and this is a national-level foreign trade exhibition, so she must maintain a serious and healthy appearance. image.

However, after the opening in the morning, the representatives of these female manufacturers were all very enthusiastic and active. As long as the merchants stayed at their booths for more than three seconds, they immediately greeted them enthusiastically and proactively. The supply of tea, coffee and juice was constant. Cheng Qingyan watched helplessly as the young female representatives of other manufacturers pulled the merchant away from her. Although she was a little displeased, there was nothing she could do.

For the whole morning, Cheng Qingyan didn't talk about the next deal, and Zhou Zhenbo, the factory representative of the No. [-] Electronics Factory who came with her, was also a little anxious.

"Comrade Cheng Qingyan, I think it's better to let your husband Duan Yun come over. He is very good at dealing with these foreign businessmen. As long as he gets involved, we will definitely get a lot of foreign trade orders." Zhou Zhenbo came when the museum was closed for a break at noon Go to Cheng Qingyan's side and say.

Since Zhou Zhenbo participated in the Canton Fair last time, he has established a good relationship with Duan Yun as a private teacher. When Duan Yun and Cheng Qingyan got married, he also received an invitation and gave Duan Yun a gift of 5 yuan. Years can be regarded as a very high gift money.

In Zhou Zhenbo's view, although Cheng Qingyan is now the deputy general manager of Tianyin Electronics, she has a high degree of education and is also very beautiful, but she obviously has no experience in negotiating with foreign businessmen, and her husband Duan Yun is a genius. Duan Yun was too impressed with him at the Canton Fair. As long as he is willing to make a move, Daxing Electronics will definitely have a lot of foreign trade orders this year.

"En." Cheng Qingyan's eyes flashed with frustration, and she nodded slightly.

Seeing that the home appliance exhibition hall was about to close, Cheng Qingyan sighed softly, left the booth, walked upstairs to the machinery hall, and prepared to go back to the guest house for dinner with Duan Yun.

However, when Cheng Qingyan came to the machinery hall, she was stunned when she saw the scene in front of her.

It turned out that at this time the machinery hall was closed at noon, and Duan Yun's booth was in the most prominent position in the middle of the machinery hall. At this time, Duan Yun was surrounded by representatives of many other manufacturers, many of whom were dressed in fashionable clothes. The very beautiful young female representative is talking and laughing enthusiastically with Duan Yun.

Duan Yun is undoubtedly a star figure in the machinery hall. He easily won an order of 270 million US dollars in the morning, making him the focus of the entire hall again. Moreover, Duan Yun is also very energetic in suits and shoes, so many first-timers After learning about Duan Yun's deeds, the female representatives who participated in the Canton Fair once came to "learn lessons".

Duan Yun was eloquent and humorous, which made the young female factory representatives laugh constantly, and they all looked at Duan Yun with obvious admiration in their eyes.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Qingyan bit her lip lightly, turned and left...
