The Pentium Era - South to North

On New Year's Eve this year, Tan Shuzhen's family went to "Splendid Home" to have New Year's Eve dinner together. Lao Zhang and Teacher Tan went to pick up Lao Liu and his wife.

Xiaoshu and Yao Fen still ate at both ends, finishing early at Yao Fen's parents' place and rushing over here.

Compared with last year, there are more people this year. Xiaoshu and Yao Fen’s son, Yao Fen is holding it in his hand and is still sucking milk. When he gets here, Xiao Zhao’s mother hugs him and is reluctant to let go. After Xiao Zhao’s death , Zhang Xiangbei was in the United States and never came back. Finally, there was a new baby in the family, and everyone was very happy.

After the Spring Festival, Lao Tan and Mrs. Tan will return to Yongcheng, and Xiangnan will also go to the newly established Yongcheng Wu Opera Troupe Co., Ltd. to officially report.

Liu Ligan's mother found out and said enviously, why don't we go back to Yongcheng? There is nothing to do here, since there is nothing to do.

Everyone felt a little sad when she said this, knowing that she was complaining about Liu Ligan, who disappeared as soon as she left. What is the difference between them having this son and not having this son.

Tan Shuzhen quickly told them not to go back. Your newly constructed village was about to be demolished. She would have to move again not long after she returned.

Old Liu was still sober. He said: "Don't go back, don't go back. If Xiao Wu and Zhang Chen go back, it will be inconvenient to deliver wine to me. You have to travel such a long way. Am I right, Zhang Chen?"

Zhang Chen is right.

Liu Ligan's mother glared at Old Liu and cursed: "Jiujiujiujiu, what else do you know besides wine?!"

Lao Liu chuckled: "You still know how to drink."

After eating until about eight o'clock in the evening, Xu Qiaoxin came with her son in her arms. This year, Xiao Wu's father also came to Hangzhou to celebrate the New Year. Xiao Wu and the others did not go back to Yongcheng.

Seeing Xu Qiaoxin, Zhang Chen asked: "Where is Xiaowu?"

"He put me down at the door and went to the 'Riverside Oil Painting Gallery' to deliver food to Xiaojin." Xu Qiaoxin said.

"No need to send it away. The Oil Painting Museum and the entire Genshan Power Plant have many people on duty today and there are unified arrangements." Zhang Chen said.

"It's okay. He has to be on duty at night anyway, so he just left a few hours earlier." Xu Qiaoxin said.

Zhang Chen felt he was full. He stood up and asked Xiaoshu, "I'm going to the Riverside Oil Painting Gallery to have a look. Will you go?"

Xiaoshu said, "Go, I'll go see Old Andy too." Zhang Chen looked at Lao Zhang, and Lao Zhang said it's okay. You go, Master Liu, we'll see him off later.

Yao Fen also wanted to go with them. There was no one in the oil painting gallery now. She also wanted to take a good look at Andy Warhol, but seeing her mother-in-law holding her son in her arms, she had no intention of giving it to her. Xiaoshu said, Son, put it here and let's go.

"What should I do if I need to breastfeed?" Yao Fen asked.

Xu Qiaoxin said: "I can feed him, but if he eats my milk, he will no longer recognize you as his mother."

"Then I'll give it to you." Yao Fen said.

Xu Qiaoxin giggled: "If you are willing to let it go, even his grandma won't let it go."

Xiaozhao's mother said: "I'm willing to give it up and give it to you. Grandma is still grandma."

Xiao Zhao's mother and Zhang Chen's mother both waved to let Xiao Shu and Yao Fen go.

Three people walked out.

They arrived at the Genshan Power Plant. The Genshan Power Plant was very lively, the Dazhong Market was crowded with people, and the pier was also overcrowded. They were all queuing up to wait for the cruise ship and to enjoy the Mishi River. Both sides of the Mishi River were decorated with lights and streamers, and there were a lot of tourists. .

The only "Riverside Oil Painting Gallery" that was bustling during the day was now dark. After the museum closed tonight, there were not even any media reporters. Everyone had gone back to celebrate the New Year's Eve, and the lights in the museum had been turned off.

Xiao Wu and Xiao Jin were sitting at the gate on the first floor chatting. Zhang Chen asked Xiao Jin to turn on the lights in the museum. He, Xiao Shu, and Yao Fen separated after entering the museum, and each began to watch the exhibition quietly. .

The entire exhibition hall was silent. Zhang Chen walked slowly and could only hear his own footsteps. For a moment, he felt that Andy Warhol was so incompatible with such an environment. Andy... Warhol is lively, and his works always have the hustle and bustle of a rickety city, which should not be so quiet.

…

Zhang Chen arrived upstairs at the dynamic zone, walked through the small door, and walked to the e-commerce department in front. All other departments in the company were on holiday, except for the e-commerce department. On the contrary, they were still busy at this time.

Not only the domestic Taobao.com, but those who are on vacation or are still on the road have more time to browse the website for shopping. After they opened their stores on Amazon, the business was also quite booming, which was unexpected. Their expectations.

At that time, there were not many people in China who directly went to Amazon to open a store. The items in their stores were much cheaper than those sold by sellers in the United States and Europe. Moreover, they still relied on their own foreign trade companies, with hundreds of There are multiple factories that do everything, so Xiaoli and the others opened nine stores on Amazon.

Zhang Chen walked into the door of the basketball stadium and saw that it was bustling inside. The large office area had dozens of people busy. The shelves were also brightly lit, and goods were picked up, packaged and packaged non-stop.

Xiaoli and Li Wei saw him and came over quickly.

After the holidays in the Gongchenqiao factory, Xiaoli was here every day, taking turns with Li Wei on duty. After the Amazon store opened, the entire e-commerce department was running around the clock, and there were no interruptions. When business is interrupted.

In the afternoon and evening, buyers on Diobao.com are most active, and in the second half of the night and morning, buyers on Amazon are most active.

Zhang Chen asked how Xiaoli and Li Wei were doing, and they both said almost in unison: "I'm so busy."

After saying that, the two looked at each other and smiled, and Zhang Chen also laughed with them.

Xiaoli said: "We will be recruiting people right after the Spring Festival, especially for cross-border e-commerce. This is completely unexpected, and the growth is almost explosive."

"Is it faster than Dabao.com?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Quick, much faster." Li Wei said, "I've already sucked a lot of people from there to Amazon, Qiaoxin, and I've almost sucked all the people there. She said she's almost turned into a polished commander." ”

"There is no way, salesmen also like to do this." Xiaoli said.

Zhang Chen was surprised and asked: "Why?"

"Think about it, when doing that kind of foreign trade order, you have to negotiate and bargain back and forth, and you have to send samples for confirmation. From the beginning to the final confirmation, an order cannot be placed in half a month, and... Ordinary salesmen can't receive any big orders, which are tens of thousands of dollars.

"If you do this, you can complete an order in just a few minutes and the money will come in. It's so cool. Although the amount of the order is very small, only tens or hundreds of dollars, a salesperson can make dozens of orders a day, which adds up to a lot. , Anyway, if you have worked here before, if you ask him to go back to work as a foreign trade salesman, he will not go back even to death." Xiaoli and Zhang Chen said.

Zhang Chen nodded and understood.

Zhang Chen asked Xiaoli: "Then you said earlier that Amazon's growth is faster than that of Dibao.com. What's the reason?"

"There is less competition," Xiaoli said. "There are more and more sellers on Dibao.com, and there are more and more sellers of the same type. There are also many sellers who specifically imitate us. Whatever we sell, they will immediately imitate it." , and if the price is lower than ours, it will definitely take away many of our customers. There are not many Chinese sellers on Amazon, and those foreign sellers cannot compete with us."

"There's nothing Zheng Huihong can do about those imitations of ours?" Zhang Chen asked.

"Is there any way? There are no patents on clothing. Or we should register a patent for every piece of clothing and then provide them with the patent certificate so they can investigate and deal with it."

"It's bullshit. By the time the patent is applied for, this piece of clothing will be out of date already. If you give it to others to imitate, they won't want to imitate it," Zhang Chen said.

"So, there's nothing they can do." Xiao Li said.

“Also, our main products on Diabao.com are clothing, mainly products from our own factories.” Li Wei said, “On Amazon, we have everything, and the products are much richer than those on Dabao.com. It is a foreign trade company. Focusing on the products we can provide, sales will of course grow faster.”

"Yes, this is also the reason Li Wei said. We have several stores selling similar things on Diabao.com, while Amazon has nine stores selling different things. We are also planning to open new stores." Xiaoli said, "Mr. Zhang, We have a suggestion."

"What suggestions?" Zhang Chen asked.

"We feel that the foreign trade company and the e-commerce department should be combined and then divided into one domestic department and one foreign department."

Xiaoli said, "This way the utilization rate of personnel will be higher. For Amazon, I estimate that we will soon have to rent a warehouse in the United States. We will have to export, document, and customs clearance ourselves." There is no need to add another set of people."

"Have you discussed this with Xu Qiaoxin?" Zhang Chen asked.

"The three of us discussed it together." Xiaoli said, "Qiaoxin also said that if we go to the United States to set up a warehouse, she also wants to send salespeople to the United States, so that she can go there to develop customers. It has become a domestic trade business in the United States.”

"She said she was also planning to recruit foreign salespeople locally." Li Wei said.

Zhang Chen said okay, since you have discussed it, we will decide this matter after that year.

"We don't want it to be after the New Year. We can discuss it now. I'll call Qiaoxin. It's New Year's Eve today and there's nothing to do. She won't be bored enough to watch the Spring Festival Gala at home with the old man and the old lady." Xiaoli said.

"Yes, call her over. What's there to see in the Spring Festival Gala?" Li Wei said.

Zhang Chen smiled and said: "She is at my house, but now, she is probably watching the Spring Festival Gala with the old man and the old lady. There are a whole room of old men and old ladies in my house."

Xiaoli giggled, then I will save her.

As Xiaoli spoke, she called Xu Qiaoxin and told Xu Qiaoxin that Mr. Zhang was here. Let's discuss the merger and open a branch in the United States.

When Xu Qiaoxin heard this, she said, "I'll come over right away with my son. Oh, there's no car."

"Die, wait there, I'll come and pick you up." Xiaoli said.
