National Tide 1980

Chapter 342: Getting Ahead

The idea has been thought out, and the policy plan for business operations has been formulated.

But to be honest, what Ning Weimin wanted to do was planned a bit ahead of schedule.

Not only are we ahead of most self-employed people, but we are also ahead of the social situation, so the operation is inevitably a bit awkward.

Not to mention, it took more than a week for Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui to finally meet Manager Huang, the top leader of the Xuanwu Branch of the Sugar Industry Tobacco and Liquor Company.

To be honest, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui had no intention of worshiping this god at all.

Originally, their thinking was quite simple, and they thought they would just negotiate with Director He from the 7th Wholesale Department of the Sugar Industry Tobacco and Liquor Company, an acquaintance of Director Li from the street.

I think it was with this person's help that the tobacco and alcohol franchise license was approved.

For future shipments, they plan to still ship from the Seventh Wholesale Department.

It's a pity that it doesn't work, a license is a license.

Although Director He does not have the authority to approve this matter, since it only involves the retail business of self-employed individuals, he can get it done just by informing his acquaintances in the branch.

But the foreign sales policy is different.

It was a major issue of principle, not to mention that the strength of Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui was beyond imagination.

The two of them tied together a book worth 50,000 yuan, and they needed to purchase hundreds or even thousands of boxes, and this would be the case for a long time to come.

This kind of volume has caught up with state-owned stores. Where can there be such self-employed people these days?

Director He is a cautious person. He is worried that problems may arise in the future without clear explanation, so he really does not dare to take over everything.

He could only point Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui to look up, saying that they must get approval from the summit.

So in order to get the "will," Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui went to the branch of the Sugar, Tobacco and Liquor Company almost whenever they had free time, and called if they couldn't get away.

Thanks to the fact that they are both on the scene and have sophisticated communication skills, they quickly succeeded in getting along with the people in the office, to the point where they could joke and call each other brothers.

They had finally queued up and were able to see the true face of the big manager.

However, the devil is difficult to deal with, and the king of hell is even more assertive.

Manager Huang gave them a hard time as soon as they met.

Especially when I heard that they were individual business owners, I was not interested in what they considered to be constructive suggestions.

After hearing their plan, I didn't think about it seriously at all and just dismissed it with a few words that were neither salty nor bland.

"Frankly speaking, you want to take the initiative to underwrite some of the unsalable cigarettes and alcohol, and then let our company give you some good cigarettes and alcohol as rewards. This will indeed help our company solve some business problems, and you can probably make some money. It's a double win. That's a good thing. But the problem is, you are self-employed. I can't meet your requirements."

"I'm not afraid that you don't want to hear it. Look at you self-employed people. It's an indisputable fact that there are many disadvantages in development, right? As soon as the country opened a little window for you, many problems were exposed. Many people cheated and disrupted the market order for personal gain. There are a lot of illegal activities."

"In political economics, it is said that productivity promotes changes in production relations, and production relations promote the development of productivity. This requires coordination and correction step by step, neither getting ahead nor falling behind. Judging from all the current facts, This theory is clearly irrefutable."

"Then under the current imperfect system, we have to agree to your request. What can we do to restrain you? For example, if you sell good cigarettes and good wine, and then give us other cigarettes and wine What should we do if we return it? If so, we are asking for trouble. So I have no basis for trust in your suggestions and guarantees, so I can only have some reservations."

"I know that you self-employed people all want to make money, and you are eager to make a lot of money. If you want to make a lot of money, you must be eager to expand your business volume. But you can't become fat with one bite. In the same way, the system must be changed step by step, not It may be required to be done in one fell swoop.”

"You have to be patient and believe in the determination of the country to reform. Let's do this. I will discuss your suggestions with the relevant personnel in the business department first. Once it is proven feasible, when the time is right, I will come back to talk to you about this issue. Well, well, well , that’s it for now, thank you for your suggestions. I’m very busy, I still have a meeting to hold…”

In this way, Ning Weimin and Zhang Shihui were sent away by Manager Huang as if they were looking at their watches.

As a result, as soon as Zhang Shihui came out of the Sugar Industry Tobacco and Liquor Branch, she complained and scolded her.

"It's really hard to do something. I had a hard time begging grandpa to sue grandma before I could see the true Buddha, but it didn't work out and I had to attend a fucking ideological education class..."

Unexpectedly, Ning Weimin was not that angry. What he said was actually a bit embarrassing for others to point out and destroy his prestige.

"You just know. I remember when we were working in a hotel, if guests wanted to ask for hot water in the middle of the night, they would have to beg us nicely. When I caught up with me, I was upset and couldn't be bothered to talk to anyone? Just don't talk to me. This is a serious unit with real power. This may be considered a kind of retribution."

"Retribution... retribution? Hey, you're still trying to take advantage of yourself."

Seeing Zhang Shihui's unhappy face, Ning Weimin patted him on the shoulder and smiled.

"I'm just stating objective facts. Am I wrong? Everyone knows what society is like now. It's ugly, it's hard to get in, and it's hard to get things done. But everyone has to ask for help. No matter who you are, you have to look at people's faces. This It’s a common phenomenon…”

Zhang Shihui snorted.

"I'm not afraid of the common phenomenon. If you ask me, he just wants a price when he talks like an official. I don't understand. Why did you insist on pulling me in just now? We should have a good time with him. As long as Let's go out to have a meal with him and have a good chat, and once the 'meaning' is in place, won't we be able to live together?"

Unexpectedly, his words were even more opposed by Ning Weimin.

"Don't mention it, do you know why I pulled you just now? I was afraid that you would do this. If you do this, it will definitely ruin the pot. You have to know that although the unhealthy trend of giving gifts is blowing, it is not for everyone. They all have to eat this. There are still people who can keep their sleeves clear. So the key is to score accurately. I dare to say that this manager is definitely not cheating."

"Why?" Zhang Shihui had a question mark on his forehead.

"First of all, he is not old, he looks to be around thirty. He speaks well and sits at the head of the branch. This shows that not only does he have official career, but it is probably not related to his family, but all depends on his personal ability. . Otherwise, it would be a deputy position. Of course, such a person will not risk his career for a little benefit. "

Needless to say, this first point coming from Ning Weimin's mouth is irrefutable.

What's more, he later used an acquaintance as a model.

"This person is a bit similar to Qiao Wanlin. Don't look at it. I gave Qiao Wanlin an electronic watch. He dared to accept it. Now you try?"

"You can treat me to a meal or help me, but Qiao Wanlin doesn't dare to accept our things casually anymore. In the first two days, I gave him a few cartons of cigarettes, but Qiao Wanlin shook his head and returned them."

"This boy is very smart. He is born to be an official. He can naturally calculate and know what is important to him. He is also afraid that if people find out about this kind of thing, he will have the ability to explain clearly to Jing'er one day. "

After a pause, Ning Weimin continued, analyzing more thoroughly.

"Secondly, why don't you look at where this place is? The Sugar, Tobacco and Liquor Company, a fat and oily place! It's not the yamenmen of the yamen! You just give away. What can you give to others?"

"Do you think they are after your cigarettes or your wine? They have plenty of them in their own treasury! Let me tell you, don't even think about home appliances. It's just that brothers and units share what they have. If they do it openly, it's enough for them to take care of their home. Filled up."

"So thirdly, despite the fact that Manager Huang is very polite to us, you can see his arrogance both in his words and in his eyes. He really can't afford us self-employed people!"

"To put it bluntly, even if they accept gifts, I'm afraid they don't want to accept gifts from us. I'm sure that if you mention something 'meaningful', he might be able to kick us out in public."
