Life 1984

Chapter 471 Gift

Li Yunhai laughed and said: "Miss Gong, are you asking about my assets or cash on hand? Or the deposits in my bank? Or the market value of my company?"

Gong Li asked in confusion: "Mr. Li, is there any difference between these?"

Li Yunhai said that the difference is too big. Market value refers to the total value of stocks issued by listed companies, while total assets are the assets owned by the company that can bring income. Reimbursements paid in cash are cash on hand, and reimbursements paid in the form of transfers, checks, etc. are bank deposits.

Gong Li was successfully deceived by Li Yunhai. He blinked his beautiful eyes and said with a smile: "Then what is the market value of your company?"

Li Yunhai said: "This should also be viewed in two. Our mainland company is not listed, but our Hong Kong company is listed, and the current market value is more than 300 billion Hong Kong dollars."

Gong Li asked again: "Then how much cash do you have?"

Li Yunhai smiled slightly, opened his briefcase, took out his wallet, and said with a smile: "There are thousands of dollars here."

Gong Li was amused by him.

After visiting Sihai Group's factory, Gong Li had a more comprehensive understanding of the company and what its main products were used for.

As a brand spokesperson, you need to fully understand the brand, including its history, culture, products, etc. This can better demonstrate the characteristics and value of the brand during the endorsement process. Otherwise, it would be a joke if reporters asked her if she didn’t know anything about the product.

In addition, the spokesperson also needs to clarify the scope and method of endorsement, such as whether to endorse the entire brand or a certain series of products, whether it is a short-term endorsement or a long-term endorsement, etc. This helps to better formulate endorsement plans and fulfill endorsement obligations.

Gong Li signed an endorsement contract with Li Yunhai last night. She is endorsing the products of the entire Sihai Group.

In the evening, Li Yunhai treated Gong Li to dinner and then sent her back to the hotel room.

The two discussed advertising shooting matters.

Sihai Group’s past advertisements were produced by CCTV’s advertising department.

This time, he wanted to make the advertisement more atmospheric and artistic. In order to produce a more sophisticated advertising video, Li Yunhai wanted to ask Lao Mouzi to shoot it.

Gong Li certainly agreed.

The matter of contacting Lao Mouzi was left to Gong Li.

Lao Mouzi was 40 years old at the time, and he was truly highly skilled. As for his personal life, there is no need to say more.

He divorced because of Gong Li, and they stayed together for eight years without marrying. Later, he found a sweet wife from a dance troupe who was more than 30 years his junior.

And Gong Li also gave up his first love in order to make a movie.

Who can tell what is right and wrong here?

Maybe they are the ones who truly live and understand!

Li Yunhai took advantage of Lao Mouzi's talent and Gong Li's future fame.

Lao Mouzi created several creative advertising ideas for Gong Li, all of which were approved by Li Yunhai.

The advertising slogan he came up with for Sihai Brand is: "Beyond imagination, challenge the future!"

Li Yunhai felt that these eight words were concise, comprehensive and catchy.

The entire advertising creative consists of three groups of advertisements: factory part, work part, and overseas part.

In the factory part, Gong Li wore the work clothes of Sihai Group and was photographed in the workshop.

For the work part, Gong Li transformed into a white-collar beauty and was filmed in the headquarters building of Sihai Group, which is Li Yunhai's secretary room.

The overseas part is shot for the global market and will be shot abroad.

The commercial shooting lasted for a month before it ended.

Sihai Group launched a new slogan and advertising video.

Li Yunhai did not attend this year's spring Canton Fair, but the company won an order of US$2.1 million.

Sihai Group will present several new products at the Autumn Canton Fair, hoping to break the transaction record.

In September in Xizhou, autumn has already entered, but it is still steaming hot.

Because Zhu Lin and Gong Jie were pregnant and had children one after another, and because engineers from Toyo came to imitate the photolithography machine, Li Yunhai was very busy in the past few months.

Sihai Center was originally scheduled to hold a grand opening ceremony on May Day, but due to these events, Li Yunhai postponed the ceremony.

May Day is considered to be pre-opening and trial opening, and the official opening will not be until November.

National Day is the National Day, so choosing to open on this day has special meaning.

Zhu Lin and Gong Jie also finished confinement and had time to participate in this celebration.

Before the National Day, Sihai Group made careful preparations for this celebration.

Sihai Supermarket has been in trial operation for several months, and business is booming, with a monthly turnover of around 10 million.

The most powerful commercial building in the province now is the Dongtang Department Store, with an annual turnover of over 100 million.

According to the current turnover, Sihai Supermarket can definitely catch up with Dongtang Department Store.

The largest storefront of Sihai Supermarket is the flagship store of Sihai Group.

Li Yunhai transferred several old employees from the Wuyi Road Sihai store, such as Liu Yan, Zhang Jun, Zhang Jie, Ma Yubo, Wang Lili and others, to the flagship store here, and the old store was taken over by newcomers.

The business of the flagship store is much better than that of the old store, with a daily turnover of more than 50 yuan.

On this day, Li Yunhai took Su Hong to the flagship store to inspect the work.

Liu Yan and others came forward.

Li Yunhai waved his hand and said, "You all go to work. I'll come over and take a look."

Liu Yan and others are very familiar with Li Yunhai.

On the first day Li Yunhai opened the store, they followed suit.

Now Li Yunhai has become a billionaire and a big entrepreneur, and Liu Yan and others are still working for him.

The fate of life is not only determined by one's own efforts, but also by thoughts and vision.

If Li Yunhai had not had the wisdom to be reborn, he would not have dared to resign and go to work, and he would not have achieved this success.

Zhang Jun followed behind and said with a flattering smile: "Mr. Li, the business in our store is getting better and better. Today we sold a computer, two copiers, and five printers."

Li Yunhai nodded: "They are all retail, right?"

"Yes, it's all retail."

"You are an after-sales person and you know sales very well."

"Hey, I'm not a dog trying to meddle in other people's business. When we have nothing to do, we will help with sales."

"it is good."

Zhang Jun rubbed his hands and bent down: "Mr. Li, do you think a store as big as ours should choose a store manager?"

In the old store, everyone performed their own duties and no management was needed.

The new store has a large area and a lot of work. In addition to the five people who came from the old store, there are also five new people.

A store with ten people needs management personnel.

Li Yunhai also considered this issue.

As soon as he saw Zhang Jun's performance, he knew that the other person wanted to be the store manager.

Li Yunhai was actually willing to give him this opportunity.

Zhang Jun has performed very well in the past few years. He knows how to repair various machines, can drive, is also a good talker, and is also good at sales.

Li Yunhai patted him on the shoulder.

Zhang Jun was a few years older than Li Yunhai, but he seemed to be favored at this moment, his bones were a few ounces lighter, and he bent over again.

Li Yunhai smiled and said: "Zhang Jun, who do you think is more suitable to be the store manager?"

Zhang Jun glanced at a few people in the store and said, "Liu Yan! We all like her."

"Haha, do you all like her? Or do you like her?"

"No, no, how am I worthy of her! She is so proud that she doesn't even look at me."

"Zhang Jun, don't you want to be a store manager?"

"I think so too, but I'm afraid I can't manage it properly."

"How do you know you're not good if you haven't tried it? I want to give you this opportunity and let you be the store manager and Liu Yan the deputy store manager. What do you think?"

"Li, Mr. Li!" Zhang Jun was so excited that he suddenly raised his tone several octaves, shocked Li Yunhai, and said, "I, of course I am willing!"

Li Yunhai asked in a deep voice: "Are you confident? Can you manage this company well?"

"I can do it, I definitely can do it!" Zhang Jun said happily incoherently, "Mr. Li, thank you for your trust in me. I will work hard to repay your great kindness."

Being a store manager is not a great job promotion.

But for Zhang Jun, it is a great honor.

Li Yunhai called everyone over and announced the news in public.

Zhang Jun straightened his back and stood in front of Li Yunhai.

Everyone congratulates Zhang Jun.

Li Yunhai said: "Everyone, do your best! In such a large group company like ours, you will have many promotion opportunities in the future."

Everyone agreed with a roar.

Li Yunhai waved his hand and asked everyone to do their work.

He took Su Hong to the supermarket.

After the supermarket opened, Li Yunhai only visited once.

He is usually too busy and has to take care of Zhu Lin, Gong Jie, Shen Xiulan and others at night. Sometimes he also has to date Chen Hong and Xie Yanran, so he doesn't have much time to go out and play.

The management of the supermarket was left to Chen Hong and Qian Changbao.

Chen Hong's fate completely changed because of Li Yunhai.

This woman actually gave up her job at the Beijin Youth Art Theater and took a job at Sihai Group with peace of mind.

Chen Hong's intelligence and ability are pretty good, and he does a great job.

Li Yunhai gave her a new world and a new life.

"Mr. Li, do you want to buy something?" Su Hong asked when she saw Li Yunhai wandering around the supermarket.

"Yeah, I want to buy a gift, why don't you give me a reference?"

"What kind of gift? What kind of person?"

"A woman and a good friend."

"How close are friends?"

"This is the relationship between you and me."

"Then just give me an ordinary gift."    "If it were you, what kind of gift would you want?"

"Me? How can I have such a chance to win Mr. Li's favor?"

"Sister Su, haven't I given you a gift?"

"No, not really."

"Then help me think about it. If she is a female friend like you, what kind of gift should I give her?"

"Be practical! In fact, most women are pragmatic. Flowers can only please the eyes for a moment, but after two days they will be withered and dilapidated and thrown into the trash can."

"That makes sense, so what exactly should I give? It can't be a color TV or a refrigerator, right?"

"It would actually be great if I could really give these away."

"Really?"

"Yes, this is the most practical."

While talking, the two came to a bag counter.

This is a women's handbag brand in Xiangjiang, which Guo Wanhua helped introduce.

At that time, Hong Kong and Taiwan brands still looked down on the mainland, especially these high-end brands. They felt that the consumption level in the mainland was too low. Even if they entered the mainland, they would definitely not be able to sell much.

But the reality slapped them in the face.

The best-selling brands in supermarkets all over the world are all from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The Chinese people's love for Hong Kong and Taiwan brands exceeds the expectations of these brand owners.

The consumption level of mainlanders also astonishes them.

Li Yunhai and Su Hong walked into the counter.

The salesperson at the counter did not know Li Yunhai.

It’s so rare for Li Yunhai to come here!

"Sister Su, which bag do you think is the most beautiful?"

"Well, if I choose, it will be this black satchel. It can be carried on the shoulder and carried, and the size is also very suitable."

"Is this one?" Li Yunhai pointed to a bag on the counter.

"Yeah, this looks pretty good."

Li Yunhai asked the teller to take off the bag.

The teller took it off and handed it to Li Yunhai, introducing the material and workmanship of the bag.

It's made of crocodile skin, and the texture is also that of crocodile skin, which looks very high-end.

Li Yunhai handed the bag to Su Hong.

Su Hong took it in her hand and showed it to Li Yunhai like a model.

Li Yunhai nodded and said: "It's not bad, I'll just buy this."

While writing the bill, the teller said: "Sir, the price of this bag is 1699 yuan."

"RMB, right?"

"Of course, we sell in the mainland and of course we settle in RMB."

"it is good."

Li Yunhai opened his briefcase and took out the money to settle the bill.

Su Hong asked: "Mr. Li, do you want them to pack it up? Just wrap it in gift paper."

"Isn't it necessary? You have to tear it open after it's packaged. It's a waste."

"Then put it in a paper bag?"

"can."

Li Yunhai finished shopping and walked around from the first floor to the fifth floor. When he passed the women's clothing area, he saw a very beautiful skirt and said with a smile: "Is this an autumn skirt?"

Su Hong said: "Yes, Mr. Li, this is an autumn and winter skirt. It can also be worn with boots in winter."

Li Yunhai said: "Do you think it looks good?"

Su Hong pursed her lips and smiled and said: "It's not bad. You are an extraordinary friend. One gift is not enough? Do you want to give me one more?"

Li Yunhai said: "Yes, we have been old friends for many years!"

He came to the clothes counter and asked the teller to take the skirt for Su Hong to try on.

"Mr. Li, if I try it on, will it work? How does your friend's figure compare to mine?"

"It's almost like that. Just try it and show it to me."

"Okay, Mr. Li."

Su Hong went into the fitting room to try on something.

After a while, she came out wearing clothes, holding the hem of her skirt with both hands, turning it in a circle, and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, look, it looks pretty!"

Li Yunhai said: "It's not bad. It matches your skin color very well! It also shows off your temperament. Just buy this one!"

Su Hong went in and changed it.

Li Yunhai is paying.

Su Hong took a look at the price tag. This skirt was 899 yuan!

Li Yunhai paid the bill and went downstairs with Su Hong.

Su Hong followed behind carrying two bags.

The mall is equipped with an elevator, making it extremely convenient to get up and down.

Because of this, many Xizhou citizens like to visit here.

Especially in the summer, shopping malls turn on the air conditioning, and citizens come here to cool off.

There are also many people who come here specifically to experience the feeling of riding an elevator.

Li Yunhai got off the elevator and ran into two people, Chen Hong and Qian Changbao.

Qian Changbao smiled and bent down and said, "Hello, Mr. Li! Welcome Mr. Li to the supermarket to inspect the work."

"I'm here to buy something." Li Yunhai said, "The mall is well managed!"

Qian Changbao said: "Mr. Li, please come to the office and sit for a while?"

Li Yunhai said: "No need, I still have something to do, you go and do it!"

Qian Changbao glanced at the two bags Su Hong was carrying and agreed with a smile.

Li Yunhai and Su Hong left.

Qian Changbao said to Chen Hong: "Mr. Chen, Mr. Li comes to our supermarket to make purchases. We can't ask Mr. Li to pay. I just took a look at which two brands Mr. Li bought. Let's go to these two counters and ask. You know what Mr. Li bought."

Chen Hong was stunned: "Why? When Mr. Li comes to consume, he should pay by himself! This supermarket is not opened by us. Every brand here has a cooperative relationship with us."

Qian Changbao smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, that's what I said, but as subordinates, we can't be so unreasonable."

Chen Hong said: "Then who will pay for this money? Will the company reimburse it?"

Qian Changbao said: "This is easy, just ask the brand for reimbursement."

This was the first time Chen Hong knew of such an operation and said, "Is this appropriate?"

Qian Changbao said: "Our supermarket has been open for a few months, and it is the first time that Mr. Li comes to shop. Which company's products he can buy is because he respects their brand! Shouldn't they give one to Mr. Li? Our supermarket is so big, and there are many brands that want to cooperate with us. If they don’t obey, we will not renew their contracts next year!”

Chen Hong had just stepped out of society, how could he understand these worldly things?

She knew that Qian Changbao was a veteran and had been a manager of a department store before. He must be more knowledgeable than herself in this regard, so she said, "That's up to you. I have no objection."

Qian Changbao nodded.

They went to the two counters and asked, and sure enough they asked Li Yunhai what he bought.

Qian Changbao told the store managers of the two brands that the person who came to shop just now is Mr. Li of the group. If he spends money in your store, he is looking down on you. You can't be ignorant, right?

The store manager immediately understood what Qian Changbao meant and quickly said sorry. We didn't know he was Mr. Li. We returned all the money Mr. Li spent at our counter.

Chen Hong saw it from the side and was deeply surprised, thinking that these people are all human beings! I just don’t understand these etiquette.

Refunds from shopping malls require procedures.

If you have money and a long-term treasure, the refunds for these two purchases will be very fast.

After getting the money, Qian Changbao put it in an envelope and handed it to Chen Hong: "Mr. Chen, I have to ask you to return this money to Mr. Li."

Chen Hong said: "What should I say?"

Qian Changbao said: "Just leave it to Secretary Su. Secretary Su will understand."

Chen Hong said hello, took the money, and went to the headquarters to find Su Hong.

Let's say that Su Hong followed Li Yunhai back to the office.

"Mr. Li, where do you put these two gifts? I'm so happy to be your friend!" Su Hong followed in and asked with a smile.

Li Yunhai smiled and said, "What are you doing for me?"

Su Hong said: "Mr. Li, isn't this a gift you bought for your friend?"

Li Yunhai said: "Yes, you are my friend!"

Su Hong was stunned for a moment: "Mr. Li, is this, is this for me?"

Li Yunhai said: "Yes! Aren't you my friend?"

Su Hong's pretty face turned red and she said, "Mr. Li, I can't accept this gift."

"You don't like it? You picked it all yourself. If you don't like it, just take it and change it yourself! I won't accompany you."

"It's not that I don't like it, it's just that I don't get any results."

"Hey, isn't it your birthday tomorrow? This is your birthday gift! Don't you think it's too little? How about I buy a color TV and a refrigerator to send to your home?"

"Ah? No, no!" Su Hong's eyes turned red and she said, "Mr. Li, thank you!"

Li Yunhai said: "You have been following me for several years. It is my first time to celebrate your birthday. It is my dereliction of duty."

Su Hong held the two bags tightly. Thinking of the scene where Li Yunhai picked out gifts for herself just now, she couldn't help but feel happy and touched.

　I have something to do tonight, so the next update may be very late.
