Li Jing sat in his office, smoking a cigarette with a worried expression. The small office was filled with smoke and a pungent smell.
In the past few days since the new Drunken Eight Immortals went on sale, the feedback from various channels was not very optimistic. It was a bit of an exaggeration to say that the performance was mediocre. In fact, compared to the declining sales of the original Drunken Eight Immortals, the sales of the new Drunken Eight Immortals were even more pitiful. Almost no one cared about it.
Li Jing had long expected this situation. After all, the price of the new Drunken Eight Immortals was much higher! Moreover, the channels were not good at promoting it. It would be strange if it could perform well!
Li Jing sighed and worried about how to write this month's report.
At this time, a young man rushed into Li Jing's office and said breathlessly, "Li … Manager Li … Yonghui Supermarket …"
Li Jing frowned and said, "Little Zheng, why are you so careless? You're not a newcomer. Have you forgotten the basic rules? Why didn't you knock? "
Little Zheng scratched his head and said embarrassedly, "Manager, I … I forgot in a hurry. How about … I go out and do it again?"
Li Jing said snappily, "Forget it! Are you panting? What made you lose your composure? Did you just say Yonghui Supermarket? Could it be that Yonghui Supermarket wants to take our goods off the shelves? How many days has it been? Even if the sales are not good, it shouldn't be that bad, right? "
As he said that, he cursed a few times. The fat pig manager of the food department of Yonghui Supermarket had a big appetite. He was filial to him several times and even treated him to food, drink, and entertainment. In the end, he reluctantly agreed to give him an inconspicuous shelf position.
Could it be that the fat pig wanted to eat the rich again? Li Jing had a bad feeling in his heart.
Little Zheng quickly shook his head and said, "No, no, manager, it's a good thing! A very good thing! Yonghui's 100 boxes of wine have been sold out. Just now, Manager Hu called and asked us to send another 500 boxes over! "
"What?" Li Jing could not believe his ears. He asked suspiciously, "Did you hear wrongly?"
"How would I dare to make such a big mistake?" Little Zheng said, "I've confirmed it repeatedly. It's true. Yonghui's side is quite anxious. They said that many customers are waiting to buy wine. They want us to send the goods over as soon as possible!"
Li Jing jumped up. "Then what are we waiting for? Hurry up and inform the warehouse to prepare the goods. Take the car there personally and find out what's going on. "
"Alright!" Little Zheng excitedly turned around and left.
Li Jing immediately sat down on the chair. He was a little confused about the situation.
"Could it be that someone happened to be holding a banquet and bought so much wine in one go?" Li Jing muttered to himself.
However, he quickly denied his guess. 100 boxes of wine meant 600 bottles. Who would buy so much wine for a banquet?
Li Jing couldn't figure out how the new version of Drunken Eight Immortals, which he didn't think highly of, could be sold out in Yonghui Supermarket …
Li Jing, who was puzzled, was awakened by the ringing of his mobile phone. He came back to his senses and grabbed the phone to take a look. The caller was Deputy Manager Chen, who was in charge of drinks in the food department of Hualian Supermarket.
Hualian Supermarket was a large-scale supermarket chain that was not inferior to Yong Hui. Li Jing had also spent a lot of effort to successfully get another large supermarket that was of little value in sales.
Deputy Manager Chen was in charge of drinks. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that he was Li Jing's god of wealth.
Li Jing didn't dare to neglect and quickly picked up the phone. "Manager Chen, hello, hello!"
Deputy Manager Chen said enthusiastically on the other end of the phone, "Brother Li! I didn't disturb your work, did I? "
Li Jing couldn't come back to his senses. This Deputy Manager Chen wasn't someone who was easy to please. All the salespeople of the major wineries worshipped him like a god. Li Jing went to pay his respects a few times, but Deputy Manager Chen always turned his nose up and ignored him. At most, he would grumble a few times. He didn't even put a small winery's sales manager in his eyes.
Why did his attitude suddenly take a 180-degree turn today?
If it wasn't for the familiar voice, Li Jing would have suspected that the person on the other end of the phone was an imposter.
However, although he was surprised, his reaction was still very fast. He immediately said, "Manager Chen, no matter how big the matter is, it's not as important as your matter! If you have any orders, just say it. As long as I can do it, I'll definitely do it! "
Deputy Manager Chen laughed and said, "Brother Li, I just want to ask — do you still have stock of the new Zui Eight Immortals wine from a few days ago?"
Li Jing was stunned. He thought to himself, Could it be that Hualian was also out of stock? Hualian had seven stores in the Sanshan District, and each store had a hundred boxes! This was more than Yonghui — because Yonghui was a local company and had many stores in the Sanshan District, the corresponding competition was more intense. Li Jing only took down one of the stores.
However, Hualian had sent a hundred boxes to each store. Even if a store was out of stock, it was still very convenient for them to transfer goods between each other.
In fact, Li Jing didn't even dare to think in this direction. He was already mentally prepared that these wines wouldn't be sold out for a few months or even half a year.
Therefore, Li Jing thought for a while and said cautiously, "Manager Chen, there must be some wine in the stock. You …"
Deputy Manager Chen said happily, "There's stock? That's great! Brother Li, this new product of yours is amazing! All seven of our stores have been sold out! Do you think you can … ship some over first to deal with the emergency? Otherwise, the customers are going to revolt … "
Li Jing was stunned. It took him a while to react. He quickly said, "No problem, no problem! Manager Chen, how much do you need? "
"If there's enough stock, send us two hundred … three hundred boxes from each store!" Deputy Manager Chen said, "Why don't you send them one by one? I'll send a car to pick them up all at once!"
Deputy Manager Chen was in charge of the wine. He had seen the sales miracle of the new Zui Eight Immortals wine.
In the beginning, he really didn't put this old brand in his eyes. Because he had received a lot of benefits from Li Jing, he gave up a very inconspicuous position in the store and let the new Zui Eight Immortals be on the shelves.
In the first two days, the situation was as he had predicted. Almost no one asked about it.
However, after three or four days, the number of people who bought the new Zui Eight Immortals gradually increased. Moreover, because the position of the shelf was relatively remote, some customers couldn't find it and went to ask the salesperson.
In the past two days, more and more people bought the Zui Eight Immortals.
Moreover, many people bought boxes by the box. A hundred boxes of wine in a store sounded like a lot, but they were sold out in less than ten days.
Moreover, there were many customers who came to ask if there was a new Zui Eight Immortals wine for sale today.
Deputy Manager Chen was keenly aware of the extraordinariness of this.
The marketing manager of a superstore was a boss in front of many suppliers, but this also depended on the person. If a certain product was particularly good and could bring the manager dazzling performance, and at the same time, if there was a lack of this product, he might lose customers. Then, the position would immediately be reversed.
Therefore, Deputy Manager Chen was no longer as superior in front of Li Jing.
Li Jing felt that his mind was in a trance. He couldn't remember how he agreed. After hanging up the phone, he was still in a state of confusion.
He felt that the world was too crazy.
Li Jing even pinched his thigh fiercely. He grimaced in pain and finally confirmed that he wasn't dreaming.
The new Zui Eight Immortals seemed to be popular!
And the new Zui Eight Immortals seemed to feel that the shock wasn't complete enough. In the following days, Li Jing kept receiving phone calls. Some of the marketing managers of the channels he contacted before, and some of the restaurant managers, all requested to increase the supply.
Even the beverage managers of large superstores such as Wal-Mart, which he couldn't reach even after begging his grandparents, personally called him. Everyone's attitude took a 180-degree turn.
Various chain restaurants, including Ling's Restaurant, also requested to increase the supply.
Manager Li, who had been rejected everywhere and received a lot of cold shoulders, suddenly became a hot commodity.
In half a day, the inventory of more than 30,000 boxes was abruptly reduced by 5,000 boxes.
Although the 5,000 boxes wouldn't be sold out immediately, many channels saw that the new Zui Eight Immortals was selling well, so they asked for more. It would definitely take time for all of them to be digested by the market. Even so, Li Jing was already shocked to the point of dizziness.
This result was completely beyond his imagination. Even in his dreams, he didn't dare to imagine that the new Zui Eight Immortals would suddenly become so popular, and that he, the sales manager, would have such a proud moment.
And this dreamy state reached its peak when Li Jing received a phone call.
To be honest, Li Jing was a little numb from answering phone calls for half a day. He kept answering the phone, and then used the office's landline to arrange the shipment. In short, he was busy.
So, when the office's landline suddenly rang, Li Jing didn't even have time to look at the number, and directly picked up the phone.
"Hello, Dingfeng Winery Sales Department," Li Jing said with full energy — the changes in the situation over the past half a day gave him a little more confidence.
The person on the other end of the phone said faintly, "Hello, I'm from the Municipal Governmental Affairs Bureau. My surname is Wang."
Li Jing was stunned for a moment, and then quickly said, "Hello, hello! Director Wang, I'm Li Jing, the sales manager of Dingfeng Winery. What can I do for you? "
Although he didn't know the other party's position, it was right for people in the system to call him director.
Director Wang said gently, "So it's Manager Li. It's like this, the new Zui Eight Immortals liquor in your winery recently tastes good. We're going to buy a batch for official reception. "
Li Jing was overjoyed and quickly said, "That's great! Thank you, Director Wang, for taking care of our business! For a big customer like you, we can sign a special supply agreement. Not only will we have priority in supplying, but we can also give a more favorable price. For the new Zui Eight Immortals liquor that we're currently launching, with my authority, I can give you a discount of 138 yuan per bottle. "
This was the Municipal Governmental Affairs Bureau!
This unit was responsible for the management, security, and service of the municipal government's affairs. Naturally, it also included some matters such as conferences, designated reception, and so on. It could be said that it was the manager of the government's affairs.
Although the liquor that the Bureau bought couldn't be compared to the sales of those large-scale superstores, their brands were strong!
As long as the supply agreement was signed, the new Zui Eight Immortals liquor would be the designated reception wine of the city! This was more convincing than any advertisement!
Director Wang said with a smile, "Thank you, Manager Li! Send me a copy of the contract, and we can sign the contract after we report it to the leader for approval. "
"Okay, okay!" Li Jing said excitedly, "Director Wang, our factory will also launch a high-end series of Zui Eight Immortals liquor in the future. The estimated retail price is 388, 588, and 888 yuan. If you need it, you can contact me directly. I'll definitely give you the biggest discount!"
Director Wang said with a smile, "Of course, of course."
After ending the call with Director Wang, Li Jing immediately sent a sample contract with the agreed price to the email provided by Director Wang.
Then, his hand trembled as he picked up a cigarette.
The sales of Zui Eight Immortals had suddenly skyrocketed. Li Jing felt that it was necessary to report to Ling Xiaotian immediately.
He picked up the landline on his desk, thought for a while, and put it back.
Li Jing felt that it was best to report such a big matter in person.
Therefore, he stood up, stuffed the cigarette and phone into his bag, and rushed out of the door. He drove straight to the headquarters of Ling Xiaotian Restaurant.
…
On the other side, Xia Ruofei drove the Knight XV to the city.
On the way, Lin Shengnan received a text message — the 80,000 yuan that Xia Ruofei asked Pang Hao to give Lin Shengnan in advance had been transferred to her account.
Lin Shengnan thought for a while and said, "Mr. Xia, can you send me to the Agricultural Bank first?"
Xia Ruofei guessed that Lin Shengnan was probably going to transfer the money. He didn't ask any questions and nodded with a smile.
When they arrived at the Agricultural Bank, Xia Ruofei didn't follow her in. He just sat in the car and waited. Ten minutes later, the valiant Lin Shengnan came out.
She got into the car and said, "I'm done. Mr. Xia, thank you!"
Xia Ruofei grinned and said, "As long as you do your best, that's the greatest gratitude you can give me! I'm entrusting my girlfriend's safety to you! "
Lin Shengnan nodded seriously and said, "I will!"
Xia Ruofei continued driving and soon arrived at the headquarters of Ling Xiaotian Restaurant. He took Lin Shengnan directly to the finance department where Ling Qingxue was.
As the manager of the finance department, Ling Qingxue had her own office.
Ling Qingxue was pleasantly surprised to see Xia Ruofei. She immediately put down her workstation and stood up. "Ruofei!"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "Qingxue, let me introduce you. This is Lin Shengnan. I told you two days ago that she'll be your assistant from now on."
Ling Qingxue said with a smile, "Hello, Shengnan!"
Lin Shengnan bowed slightly with a trace of respect and said, "Hello, Miss Ling!"
Xia Ruofei laughed and said, "You guys talk! Get to know each other. Qingxue can arrange some work for Shengnan that's within her ability. "
Ling Qingxue was a little reluctant to leave. She asked cutely, "Ruofei, where are you going?"
Xia Ruofei said with a smile, "I'm going to Uncle Ling's office!"
Since he was already in the company, it would be rude if he didn't pay a visit to his future father-in-law.
Xia Ruofei said, "You guys talk first! I'll come over to have dinner with you later. "
"Okay!" Ling Qingxue said.
Xia Ruofei said to Lin Shengnan, "Oh right, Shengnan, if I'm with Qingxue in the future, you don't have to protect her. I'll be responsible for her safety."
Lin Shengnan nodded and said, "Yes, Mr. Xia!"
Lin Shengnan didn't question this. Although she couldn't see what was so special about Xia Ruofei, she knew one thing very well — someone who could be selected for Lone Wolf's training camp and pass the hellish test to become an official member, or even a core member, was definitely not a weakling.
With Xia Ruofei's protection, Ling Qingxue's safety definitely didn't need to worry.
Besides, it wasn't appropriate for her to be a third wheel when they were together.
Xia Ruofei nodded to the two women, then left Ling Qingxue's office and went straight to Ling Xiaotian's spacious chairman's office.
The chairman's future son-in-law naturally didn't need to be announced. The secretary let him in directly.
"Uncle Ling!" Xia Ruofei called with a smile.
Ling Xiaotian looked up and immediately took off her reading glasses. She laughed heartily and said, "Ruofei is here! Come and sit down! "
Ling Xiaotian ordered the secretary to serve tea and then asked, "Ruofei, have you seen Qingxue?"
"I just came from her office," Xia Ruofei said with a smile.
Ling Xiaotian nodded and asked, "Why are you free to come to the company today?"
Xia Ruofei said, "Uncle Ling, I found a female bodyguard and assistant for Qingxue through the leaders of the old army. Today, I brought her to meet Qingxue. I think Qingxue's safety needs to be taken seriously. After all, you are very rich. If someone takes the risk and tries to hurt you, the consequences will be unimaginable. "
Ling Xiaotian looked at Xia Ruofei with relief and said, "Ruofei, I'm very happy that you are so considerate of Qingxue! I didn't think about it enough before. I really should have given Qingxue a good bodyguard! "
Ling Xiaotian didn't know what happened at the company's entrance that day. Otherwise, he would have given Ling Qingxue a dozen bodyguards.
But even so, he still believed in Xia Ruofei's words. There was no harm in being careful.
The two of them chatted for a while. Xia Ruofei asked, "By the way, Uncle Ling, our improved Zui Ba Xian should be on the market now, right? How's the market reaction? "
Ling Xiaotian smiled and said, "I've been busy with the designated reception units and our hotel. I really didn't have time to pay attention to the winery! How about … I give them a call and ask how the sales are? "
Xia Ruofei smiled and said, "There's no hurry. I'm still confident in my product! Good wine is not afraid of being in the dark! "
Ling Xiaotian laughed and said, "Since you're here, let's ask about the situation!"
After that, Ling Xiaotian stood up and walked to the desk.
