After the meeting, Dou Jin went to the office to pack his luggage. Xiao Zheng, who was hungry after the meeting, wanted to go downstairs for dinner, but he was stopped by Ouyang, who had just been entrusted with an important task.
"Mr. Xiao, let me treat you." Let me treat you, "Ouyang said humbly.
"Sure." Xiao Zheng did not stand on ceremony and patted his shoulder. "No matter what, I am a benefactor in your life. It's just a meal, I can afford it."
Ouyang scratched his head and smiled. He felt that Xiao Zheng was the easiest leader he had ever met.
The place to eat was not an expensive restaurant. It was only three thousand yen per person. Xiao Zheng ordered a plate of fried rice and a few side dishes. Then, he chatted with Ouyang as they ate and drank sake.
"I forgot to tell you in the meeting room. I got a budget of sixty million from the headquarters. Can you see if you can increase the effect? "Xiao Zheng took a sip of sake and smiled.
"No need." Ouyang, who didn't care about his image, quickly shook his head as he wolfed down the food. "Fifty million is enough."
Xiao Zheng joked, "You are the first employee to refuse my request to increase the budget."
Ouyang smiled and said, "Too much money, I also have pressure."
"Is there no more fifty million?" Xiao Zheng asked with a smile.
"Yes." Ouyang nodded. "But fifty million, I can spend the value of fifty million. I can't guarantee sixty million. That's why I feel guilty. "
"I like honest employees." Xiao Zheng raised his glass and clinked it with Ouyang's with a smile. "You can tell me if you have any difficulties at work. I only want results."
"Understood." Ouyang nodded and asked curiously. "Mr. Xiao. Even if I didn't stand up just now, would you fire Dou Jin and start the next round of publicity? "
"Otherwise, would I take sixty million to spend?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"But you have been here for two days, and there has been no movement." Ouyang asked curiously.
"I want to know if Dou Jin can still be saved. After all, he's an old employee. If he didn't deserve to die, I wouldn't have fired him. "Xiao Zheng smiled.
"It seems that you are a humane employee," Ouyang praised.
"It doesn't matter if he's humane or not," Xiao Zheng said with a smile. "The important thing is whether the employees are convinced or not. This is something you need to pay attention to in the future. "
Ouyang said respectfully, "I will do my best."
Xiao Zheng smiled and clinked glasses with Ouyang.
…
Ouyang said that he only needed one week to let 50 million citizens know that Phantom had entered the Japanese market. He did what he said, and he did it. His first step was to let the public know, and his second step was to change the public's impression of Phantom.
A series of sales figures were uploaded online. In particular, those high-quality advertising music videos had penetrated the hearts of countless housewives. In addition, Ouyang hired countless paid posters to whitewash Phantom. In just three days, the internet's evaluation of Phantom had undergone an earth-shattering change.
On the fifth day, when Chanel finally reacted, Phantom was already running out of stock on a large scale. The popularity was also out of control. Not only the public, but even the political, business, and entertainment circles were fanatical about the Phantom series.
Fashionable and high-end, these were the two main impressions that Phantom left in the Japanese people. Coupled with the addition of Lu Qier, an international superstar, it made Phantom look even more impressive. It made people unable to look down on this international brand.
Of course, the most important thing was the quality of the product. Topics could be hyped up, but lasting power depended on good quality. This was also the reason why Xiao Zheng was strict with the product department. The most important thing for any popular product was quality. Otherwise, no matter how much money was spent on marketing, without good quality, it would only make money once. It would not last long.
On the seventh day.
On the day that Ouyang promised, Phantom's sales exceeded the limit. It exceeded 80,000 units on the same day. If it wasn't for the headquarters in the past few months, it would have been difficult to provide sufficient supply for the Japanese market.
On this day, Lin Huayin also called to express her concern.
"Not bad, right?" Xiao Zheng smiled proudly.
"Beautiful." Lin Huayin's tone was still calm, but she was not stingy with her compliments. "If there is a shortage of manpower, you can hire some there."
"That's not something I should be asking." Xiao Zheng smiled and said. "I have a good eye for talent and picked an outstanding director for Xin Ao. With him, we can count our money while lying down. "
"Come back soon after you are done." Perhaps because she still had work to do, Lin Huayin didn't chat with him for too long. After a few words of greeting, she hung up the phone. She maintained her usual cold demeanor.
After hanging up the phone, Xiao Zheng walked out of the temporary office. The employees were surrounding the hero, Ouyang, to congratulate him. When they saw Xiao Zheng come out, they couldn't help but clap. "Congratulations, Mr. Xiao. Phantom has been creating miracles these past few days. It has successfully suppressed Chanel. "
"Same to you." Xiao Zheng smiled. "You guys deserve the credit. I am only supervising you guys. Don't worry. When I return to the headquarters, I will fight for better benefits for you guys. Right now, the only thing I can decide is to give you guys a raise. "
"How much?" The employees asked excitedly.
"Do you think it's more appropriate to double it or triple it?" Xiao Zheng asked with a playful smile.
"Of course, double!" The employees shouted.
"Then triple." Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette and smiled. "Tonight's karaoke is on me. Don't save money for me. Every penny you guys earn for Xin Ao, I will get a bonus. "
"Long live Mr. Xiao!"
The atmosphere in the office was harmonious. It was a change from the dull and unmotivated atmosphere when Dou Jin was in charge. Ouyang also became famous after this battle. He attracted the attention of many big shots in the Tokyo business world. But Ouyang believed that the potential of the Phantom series was not limited to this. He believed that as long as he was willing to work hard, in the near future, he would become a big shot who wanted to rope him in.
While the employees were celebrating the results in front of them, Xiao Zheng's phone rang at an inopportune time. It was Sofia calling.
"What's up?" Xiao Zheng walked back to the office and smiled.
"Congratulations —"
"Thank you."
"— You successfully angered Itō." Sophia finished the second half of her sentence that was interrupted by Xiao Zheng.
"Is that so?" Xiao Zheng smiled. "Itō can be angered so easily?"
"You are really capable. You can turn the situation around in just a week. Not only Ito, even I didn't expect it at all. "Sofia clicked her tongue in wonder. "You are really a business genius."
"I don't have that ability. Those who are capable are my employees. "Xiao Zheng joked. "My greatest ability is not my own ability, but my ability to recognize and use people."
Sophia said slowly, "The Phantom has opened up in Japan. No matter how capable Itō is, it will be difficult to change the public opinion. But you humiliated him so much, I am worried that he will find you for revenge. "
"He doesn't need to find me." Xiao Zheng smiled. "I will find him too."
"You want to see him?" Sophia was surprised.
"Yes." Xiao Zheng smiled. "Can you help me make another appointment?"
"I don't need to make an appointment. He also wants to see you." Sophia was troubled. "But if you go to see him this time, aren't you afraid that he will take revenge on you?"
"Aren't you there?" Xiao Zheng said thoughtfully. "I believe that Mr. Itō will give you face."
