Restarting life in Siheyuan

Chapter 297 The first day of the exhibition was hot

Chen Dong nodded. "Mr. Zhu, please don't worry. Leave this matter to me. Inspector Liang has told the Marine Police. There is no problem. It will definitely be shipped normally. After all, we have completed the procedures."

"I'm not afraid of 10,000, I'm afraid of just in case. There's nothing careless about this matter. If it doesn't work, you have to make a trip yourself."

"Okay, Mr. Zhu, I'll do it myself!"

"Also, Miss Wu, this matter must not alert the Hong Kong government, otherwise it will definitely be ruined. And what I said about renting a one-story building on the island, we must hurry up. We will have to renovate and recruit personnel by then, and the time will be very short. tight."

"By the way, boss, the commercial will be shot in a few days. The actors have been contacted, but the car is not available yet. You have to help find a way. I can't help it."

"On the third day after the opening of the museum, you will bring someone over, and I will solve it for you then..."

...

The preparation work of the steel rolling mill is quite sufficient. At least after Zhu Xuefeng proposed the test drive method, Secretary Chen coordinated many times and drew a test drive area outside the exhibition hall.

There are several tables at the entrance of the exhibition hall, with the "Journal of the Import and Export Fair" neatly stacked on them. It is approved by the Ministry of Commerce and published by the Foreign Trade Center, and is the only authoritative publication officially issued by the conference.

It promotes export companies and products and is known as the "purchasing guide and buyer's manual" for trade fair guests.

The Canton Fair has started as scheduled. The exhibition is divided into three batches. It is true that the exhibition hall space is limited. Even if the venue has been changed twice, the venue is half the size. However, there are too many participating units, tens of thousands this time.

From heavy industry, light industry, textiles, etc., as long as they are available in China, they are basically here. It is said that the money turtles bought in the last session were good, with more than 50,000 sold. It can be imagined how rich the variety is. As long as it can be exchanged Foreign exchange, everything was sold.

There was a sea of ​​people outside the exhibition area. I didn’t know where so many people showed up. It was roughly estimated that there were tens of thousands of people.

Zhu Xuefeng and other exhibitors had entered the square with their passes a long time ago, and then took out the vouchers of the Beijing trading group to enter the venue. Now they are waiting for foreign guests to enter the booth.

The exhibition hall looks large, but overall it is still quite crowded. The middle of the two rows of booths was originally quite spacious, but after several rows of round tables for negotiation were placed, it immediately became crowded.

The booth is not very big. There is just a table in front. There are two portraits of motorcycles on the background wall. Two motorcycles of different colors are parked on the two bright disks behind them, which is very conspicuous. The place is too small to place each of the five kinds, and there are no spotlights.

The area of ​​the booth was dotted with many potted plants. Colorful pictures of motorcycles were hung on the frames around the booth. A huge parameter list of motorcycles was pasted on the wall near the table, which was clearly visible. There was a bracket next to it with many plugs on it. The brochure is available for use at will.

Such a simple thing is all handmade on site. Even the wooden boards, various steel wires, platforms, and shelves are all made on site. It's really inexperienced.

"Secretary, this preparation is still not sufficient. Next time, you can make it at home and assemble it when you come. It will be more beautiful than this."

The secretary also admitted that there was no way. Given the conditions, the steel factory had done a lot of work. The two large turntables were made with the help of the steel factory, and they were ready to be placed directly on the ground from the beginning.

"That's true. Isn't this inexperienced? You'll understand next time."

Looking at the sign on the side, the secretary also smiled bitterly. Zhu Xuefeng insisted on getting one. The sign for motorcycle test drive experience was a bit different.

"Secretary, who set your price? Why is it so low? It is even lower than in China. Don't tell me that after using a lot of rubber and plastic, the cost has dropped significantly."

"The cost has dropped a bit, but the price is set by the higher-ups. Don't complain, just sell it. At this price, our factory will make at least this amount."

Zhu Xuefeng sighed, there is no Internet now, these are obviously more than one grade higher than the ones that were crazy about the past few days, but they are sold cheaper. If this is the case in future generations, they will be sprayed to death.

"Don't worry about useless things. Your task is to sell it for me. This is related to the road behind our factory."

Zhu Xuefeng understands the current demand for foreign exchange, but selling it so cheaply will make him cheaper by then. This makes him feel uneasy, haha.

"Now that you know the secretary, you can rest assured. Don't regret it when the time comes. You just need to take less."

The exhibition has arranged full-time traders, and all transactions will be gathered for verification. The steel rolling mill is a bit out of the way, but Lou Xiaoe and Zhou Wenwen, who have changed into rush-made clothes, are still somewhat conspicuous in this era, and they are attracted after a while. Many eyes paid attention, and slowly some people gathered in front of the booth.

Zhu Xuefeng had already appeared and was introducing the new products of the steel rolling mill in fluent English. The new motorcycles were indeed very beautiful, beyond the imagination of people in this era. The two girls also introduced them to the guests who could understand Mandarin.

"Sir, you are saying that as long as you register here, you can use the test drive card you issued to experience it outside the square, right?"

"You are right, sir. We have designated a designated area on the west side of the square with obvious signs. Of course, if you are willing, you can rest here for a while. We will gather ten people and lead them there."

"Oh, no, no, no, I'm worried that there will be too many people for a while. If it's like what you described, I'm worried that it won't be my turn for a while. Okay, I'll go and experience it now. Bye, this Young gentleman."

One after another, the foreign guests went there on their own. Many of them had seen this product in the United States, but it was obvious that the one here was better, more beautiful, and had superior performance. Heck, they actually said that it could be used with just one click. Ignition, it’s incredible, you must try it.

Seeing another group of more than a dozen people being taken away, Secretary Chen panicked. There was almost no one left in the exhibition hall to lead the way, and there were definitely not enough manpower in the square. In just over an hour, more than 20 people had arrived one after another.

It was originally a product, and it was estimated that eight or nine people would be enough. However, it was split into two by Zhu Xuefeng, and it was immediately stretched.

The vehicles are sufficient, but there are only Deputy Director Zhao, Director Sun and two technicians in the square. There were originally four people in the exhibition hall, but now Lou Xiaoe and Zhou Wenwen have brought people there and have not returned. As for Director Huang of the Materials Department, no one has been seen.

"Hey, isn't this Mr. Ram? Didn't you go back?"

Mr. Ram was looking at various products with a group of white turbans with great interest, and he was surprised to see Mr. Zhu.

"Oh, dear Mr. Zhu, why are you here? What a surprise."

It turns out that Mr. Ram did not go back, but visited several more countries in Southeast Asia on behalf of the sponsor, and was still looking for opportunities. Now that the Canton Fair is opening, the sponsor has sent new people, who are here to accompany him.

Mr. Ram also kept explaining something to the other white hoods.

"Dear Mr. Zhu, is this also your new product? I think it is so beautiful. Can you introduce it to us? We are very interested."

He didn't know whether he was really interested or just wanted to leave a good impression. In the end, Zhu Xuefeng had no choice but to leave the secretary alone to watch the booth and hurriedly lead the way for the white turban. In a corner of the square, more than a dozen motorcycles were being tested, and everyone couldn't put them down. Although more than a dozen foreign guests came down after the test drive, they still watched others test drive with relish. Zhou Wenwen was also riding one outside. He kept running in circles and attracted countless eyes.

"Xiao'e, hurry back and help. The secretary is here. You have to help maintain it. I'll be here in a minute."

Lou Xiao'e was also so busy that she was sweating on her forehead. There were a lot of people here with all kinds of needs.

"But team leader, there's a shortage of people here. I'm afraid they'll ride away while we're not paying attention. Besides, I don't speak English."

"You go first. There is no problem with this place. You have to trust Director Zhao and the others."

In fact, Director Zhao also has a headache. No one here can speak English, and he can't find anyone to help him. He can only communicate through gestures, which is too strenuous. Lao Sun is more relaxed. He and the two technicians just look after the car. Just teach people step by step.

"Mr. Ram, please forgive me. We are short of manpower here. I will teach you first, and you have to teach them the rest. It's very simple. Let's give it a try..."

Seeing that Mr. Ram could ride normally, Zhu Xuefeng said hello and hurried back to the exhibition hall. He was careless. It was not like he had never participated in this exhibition. As soon as Director Zhao said that the layout of the exhibition hall was fine, he ran away. After going to Xiangjiang, I didn't pay attention to these things. I didn't expect it to become such a mess.

The secretary was also worried. Many people came to ask because they saw the test drive outside, but he couldn't communicate and was getting angry. Lou Xiao'e couldn't help, so she could only keep distributing soda to everyone and help them understand Chinese. Guests gave explanations.

"Secretary, let me do it. You have to find someone, someone who can speak foreign languages, and you have to ask the steel factory to support some people. There are too many people test driving in the square, otherwise we will really be unable to bear it."

Secretary Chen nodded. The preparation work was a mess this time. The damn boy didn’t help find a solution earlier. When Director Zhao said that the exhibition hall was fine, there was no one there for several days, except for a test drive update. Adding chaos and doing nothing good.

"Team leader, it would be great if I could speak foreign languages. I can't help here."

Lou Xiao'e was a little discouraged. After preparing for so many days in advance, she was in a hurry on the morning of the first day.

"Well, you should study it when you have time. This is very important. Our factory will definitely have more and more needs in this area in the future. Study hard and you will definitely be able to do it."

After finally sending away another group of people, Zhu Xuefeng took advantage of his free time to encourage Lou Xiaoe.

"Well, I will definitely work hard!"

In the morning, I led four groups of people to conduct appraisals and reached purchase and sale contracts for 80 units. Most people were attracted by the appearance first and signed the contract directly after the test drive. More people still had to negotiate after returning. After all, it was a new gadget. .

"Team leader, I only brought 200 vehicles. If I continue to sell them, they will be gone tomorrow."

"It doesn't matter. Our contract can stipulate the supply time, but we may have to have a meeting tonight. We don't know the subsequent supply time here."

I talked to Secretary Chen about this situation and I have a basic plan, but it seems that it is still insufficient. The advertisements for Xiaozhi are now very crazy. There are many people who know about small-displacement motorcycles, but this one is more beautiful and has better parameters. There is also a one-button ignition, which is not available in these days.

In the afternoon, Secretary Chen hurriedly brought ten people, four men and six women, all fluent in foreign languages ​​and divided into several subjects. Now Zhu Xuefeng was relieved.

"Secretary, you are really good. There is such a shortage of translators now, and you found so many in one go."

"You didn't even look at who came forward. I went directly to my old comrades. Haha, everyone invites students, but I invited all the teachers. These are all fresh graduates who stayed in school. How about it."

Even though Zhu Xuefeng is very obedient, there are still people who can do things easily. Secretary Chen can hire a teacher, but there is no one else.

"How was the situation this morning? With so many people test-driving it, someone should buy it."

Zhu Xuefeng took the secretary and left the club directly. The two of them lit cigarettes.

"Secretary, you have to contact your family quickly. I placed four orders for eighty vehicles in the morning and two batches of forty vehicles in the afternoon. I have ordered a total of one hundred and twenty vehicles. I don't know when I can supply the remaining ones. I'm preparing." It will be two months after signing."

Secretary Chen did not expect such a result and stopped smoking.

"I'll leave it to you here. After one month of signing within five hundred, just follow this. I'll go get the phone number quickly. I have to let Lao Yang think of a way..."

Secretary Chen left again. Zhu Xuefeng smoked slowly. He was exhausted all morning and his mouth was dry. He also took turns eating lunch. He was the only one who could speak foreign languages. There was no one to replace him. In the end, Zhou Wenwen bought it and gave it away. Come in.

A busy afternoon passed again. The forensic examiner in the exhibition hall hurriedly checked the quantity. One hundred and ten motorcycles of one kind and eighty motorcycles of the other kind were ordered in the steel rolling mill, and everyone was allowed to drive them directly. Overlooked.

"Comrade, I think this new car of yours is very beautiful. Why can't you see it in China?"

Zhu Xuefeng smiled tiredly, "To tell you the truth, this is a new product and has not been launched yet. This time it is exclusively for the Canton Fair. Looking at this situation, it will not be available in the country for a while."

The people at the booth next to me were jealous, but they couldn't help it. This thing just attracts attention, and they even did some test drives. They couldn't accept it.

"That's right, it's important to earn foreign exchange first, but if this thing can be sold domestically one day, don't forget our old district. This is my contact information..."

Zhu Xuefeng was a little speechless. This export sales is not enough now. Besides, why should you ask yourself? You have to ask the leader for this matter.

...

After dinner, everyone was exhausted. Only Zhu Xuefeng accompanied the secretary for a walk in the factory area.

"Secretary, today is just the beginning. There will definitely be more to come. What is the current situation at home?"

"My family doesn't know the afternoon quantity yet, but the morning quantity has already been reported, and we are now studying overtime production to ensure it exceeds 500 per month."

Zhu Xuefeng shook his head, where are you now? His trading company hasn't taken action yet. Zhu Xuefeng is planning to sell goods in Xiangjiang, Wanwan, Monkey Country and other places. Xiangjiang's advertisements are looking for people.
