Chapter 806 Kevin Returns
Kevin didn't care about eating for a while, and watched TV intently, until all the news about Jiafeng Electronics was broadcast, he stood up hurriedly to pay the bill, went out and directly found a phone to call a friend in the mainland.

"Hello, Mr. Li? I'm Kevin, I want to ask you something. Jiaxun pagers are selling well now?" Kevin asked on the phone.

"Yeah, this is big news. Are you not in the mainland? Let me tell you, the whole industry has been blown up. Lu Feng is definitely a god of war this time. I heard that sales continue to break new highs. Are you in his So what?" President Li wondered.

"Oh, it's okay, I just inquired about it casually. It seems that he has never seen this kind of business model. I really didn't expect this pager to be a big seller!" Kevin wanted to ask something.

"Now many associations, business schools, and lecturers in the south are dismantling his logic. I also went to listen to a class, which generally focuses on three points. Product positioning is not only about communication, but mainly about interpersonal communication. , when a product is no longer a product, but endowed with other capabilities, it is different, pricing is also very important, and there is a brand new innovation, that is the herd effect, find a bunch of people in line, others Will follow the purchase, I just listened to this." Mr. Li said on the phone.

"Oh, oh, do you think someone like Lu Feng has a future?" Kevin asked.

"There must be a future. Let me tell you, this person rushed out of a small place and has never lost a game. I don't know how many people have squeezed their heads to join him. You are a blessing in disguise. Now the company is not too big. Really If you become one of the top [-] companies in the world, you will be an old employee." Mr. Li said enviously.

"It's a blessing in disguise, and a disaster again!" Kevin sighed and said, "Let's do this first, I have something to do, so I hang up first."

After hanging up the phone, Kevin stood there and smoked a cigarette, and decided to call Du Guoying. In the past few decades of ups and downs in the business world, he knew a truth, that is, to go down with a boss who is about to rise. For an executive, it is a lifetime wealth.

Such a person is often surrounded by great people, success can be effortless, even if his ability is not so high, the strength of the team will lift him to an unprecedented height.

Kevin thinks that a person’s life is divided into three levels. The first level is talking about dialogue, which can make a person have excess income in the short term. The second level is doing the right thing, doing things in the right direction, which can make a person There is continuous income in the mid-term, and the third layer is to follow the right person, and follow the right person, that is excess and stable income for a lifetime.

The call was connected, and it was Du Guoying's assistant who picked it up. Years ago, this young man who was running around on a motorcycle now had to make an appointment to talk, which made Kevin feel a little frustrated.

After telling the assistant on the phone his number, he hung up the phone. Kevin also thought about calling Lu Feng directly, but he didn't know if the other party would hold grudges, after all, he left when he was in the most difficult time.

Du Guoying came out of the meeting room, and as soon as he reached the door of the office, the assistant came out from the next office and said, "Mr. Du, someone called you, and it was Kevin from the overseas marketing department."

"Kevin?" Du Guoying was also taken aback for a moment, she understood in her heart, pushed open the office door, looked at the phone left on the table, and was hesitating whether to call or not.

"Anyway, if you helped me, I'll just give it back to you."

Du Guoying muttered something, and the phone was called. After the call was connected, the two of them didn't speak, and there was only silence between each other. After a long silence, Du Guoying took the lead and said, "I will tell him, and try to help you."

"Thank you!"

"Two don't owe each other!"

Du Guoying put down the phone and left the office, and asked his assistant, "Where is Mr. Lu now? Are you in a meeting?"

"Probably not, in the office!"

Du Guoying knocked on the door of the office, and Lu Feng's voice came from inside. He just opened the door and walked in, saying, "President Lu, I have something to do."

Lu Feng closed the folder in front of him and asked without raising his head, "What's the matter? There is movement in the market? They want to take a similar route, at least it will take ten days and a half months, and there will be one today." Movement, it’s impossible, isn’t it?”

"The market is quite stable. I answered a phone call and wondered if I should say something." Du Guoying said coyly.

"Do you think I'm free?" Lu Feng looked up at him and said, "Hurry up if you have something to say."

"Kevin called me." Du Guoying said directly.

Lu Feng took a deep breath, leaned on the chair and said, "It's not surprising, you can come back if you want, but it's definitely not like before. I begged him to come back, Guoying, it's just ten days and half a month. I believe that you have also seen some people's feelings are cold and warm, and the world is hot and cold, and I am not saying that I am cold to human nature, but that the world is like this."

"I also think he's not doing very well!"

"There is nothing good or bad. Good birds choose trees to live in. It has been the same since ancient times. You can also see that this person is not something our small company that has not gone international can stay. He was arrogant before, and I endured it." What about him now?" Lu Feng said to Du Guoying: "People always have to show a little bit of strength, and the other party will convince you. Only when he is determined, can he settle down and do things. This time when these troubles happen, take a look at Zhu Lidong, Did Wei Yandan and those in Liucheng react?"

The people Lu Feng mentioned have long been submissive to him. To put it bluntly, a good general is a beast that needs to be tamed. Kevin is capable, otherwise Lu Feng would not have tossed it for so long, but the people under his hands felt that The boss is an idiot, I believe this company can't go very far.

The other party will not really work hard.

"I think he has the audacity to call me this time, and he is really convinced. As for whether to let me come back, you have the final say. I have another worry, in case there are some twists and turns in the future, he thinks it's not okay , resigned again, trouble!" Du Guoying handed the question to Lu Feng.

"Tell him, I'm going to invite him to dinner tonight, at the Qifu chef in the commercial street!" Lu Feng said while lighting a cigarette: "As for your concern about leaving again, what do you think? Is there a perfect person in the world?"

"no!"

"There are many talented people in this world, but there is no perfect person. If we don't understand the international market, we have to find someone. I don't care whether he runs or not. As long as he has the ability, we will use it. The key is how to use it. question."

"I see!"

Du Guoying returned to the office and called Kevin and told him the news. Kevin became excited and immediately went to buy a ticket to drive there. On the way, he also secretly lamented that he was also a cheap bone. , I insisted on leaving, and now I have the cheek to go back.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Du Guoying had already arrived in the private room on the second floor of Chef Qi's Mansion. Kevin sat on the side without the arrogance at that time, and looked a bit cautious. He looked at Du Guoying and asked, "When will Boss Lu arrive?"

"He's busy, wait a minute, I'll ask my assistant to call and ask."

After the assistant made the phone call, he came back and whispered in his ear, "Boss Lu is sleeping."

"Okay, I got it!" Du Guoying said to Kevin, "Boss Lu is busy with meetings now, researching issues in the Asian market in the international market."

"To be honest, I'm very embarrassed." Kevin said awkwardly: "I didn't see you, I really missed it, so I want to come back now."

"It's okay, Boss Lu is easy to talk to."

Half an hour later, Lu Feng woke up, tidied up briefly, and went downstairs to the intersection.

The waiter pushed open the door of the private room, and Lu Feng walked in. Du Guoying and Kevin stood up and said a few polite words, and Kevin said to Lu Feng, "Hello, Mr. Lu."

"Well, all right, sit down!"

Lu Feng looked at the ground, pulled out the chair and sat on the main seat without raising his head, and ordered: "Serve the food, this restaurant is okay, don't look at it's not a star, the dishes are very tasty. "

"I also followed you to have oral intake." Du Guoying said with a smile on his face: "If it's delicious, I'll come here for treats in the future."

"It's not too expensive, it's pretty good."

The two chatted without saying a word. Kevin sat aside and felt that his whole face was red and stiff like a red-hot iron sheet. He started to talk several times, but Lu Feng skipped him and talked to Du Guoying.

As the food was served and two bottles of red wine were brought up, Lu Feng looked at Kevin and said, "What's the matter? Go on a trip for a few days, have fun?"

tourism?

Kevin knew right away that he was being stepped down, and hurriedly said: "Just go home and take a look at the house, everything is fine, thank you Mr. Lu for your concern."

"Kevin, let me tell you that a lot of things have happened during your absence. The international market still hasn't developed much. It is still relying on Xiangjiang's agents to sell the goods. I can't give you so much for this salary. , the annual salary will be reduced to [-] US dollars, of course, there are still bonuses, if you do well, it is not a problem to get hundreds of thousands of dollars a year." Lu Feng said with a serious expression: "No matter where people go, they still have to get Come up with your own set of things."

"Yes yes yes, I know, I understand, don't worry." Kevin nodded his head.

"To be honest, I'm just busy. Otherwise, I would have done it myself in terms of the international market. It really doesn't take much trouble." Sitting there, Lu Feng boasted: "If I was in the business, I would You really don't look like this enough."

"Yes!" Kevin turned around.

Lu Feng observed Kevin's expression quietly. He didn't sneer or sarcasm. The arrogance in his eyes was basically gone. Although this person didn't agree with Lu Feng's words, he didn't feel that what Lu Feng said just now The words are outrageous.

"Mr. Lu, I really admire you. Just talking about the pager, I was really confused at the beginning. You said I didn't understand anything, but you picked me up, and I have come to today step by step. .Meeting you is really a blessing in life, I would like to offer you a toast." Du Guoying picked up the wine glass.
