Chapter 1052 Envy
It is the first time that Jiasheng, a company with outstanding strength but always frugal, has spent so much money on an exhibition. The whole group wants to do its best to improve the cost-effectiveness of this expenditure.
Old Cai, who is about to retire and enjoy his old age, has burst out with all his enthusiasm in the past few days, helping to receive batches of customers who visit the furniture factory. Jin Ling, who also arrived before the opening of the autumn trade fair, has more things to do.
Daily work cannot be abandoned. Both the exhibition and the factory must be taken care of. He must also represent the group to attend some forums and meetings held during the autumn trade fair. There is another important task, coordinating the leaders who will come to attend the signing ceremony...
With such a busy schedule, it is naturally impossible for the lower level to be idle. The whole company has been filled with an atmosphere similar to a war in the past few days, and everyone is overdrawing their energy and physical strength.
Every night, after finally finishing a day's work, no one will not fall asleep as soon as their head touches the pillow.
However, as long as everyone sees the results of the past few days, they are very excited. In the four days since the opening, the average daily order signing is close to 10 million US dollars-this does not count the intentions that have been reached.
Although the Spring Fair in the first half of the year, affected by SARS, had the lowest transaction volume since the 1990s, with only more than 4 billion US dollars, less than a quarter of the same period last year, to a certain extent, it may make the demand for the Autumn Fair more vigorous, but the performance of Jiasheng is also very eye-catching among all exhibitors.
Regarding the Canton Fair, China's first exhibition, there is a data in recent years that the average transaction volume of each booth is about 500,000 US dollars. Jiasheng has a total of 20 booths. According to this calculation, 12 million has reached the average level, and this goal has been achieved on the first day.

In the meeting room of the furniture company, Jin Ling sat at the end of the oval conference table and presided over the company's negotiation with the UK Next Sourcing Limited, which is also a target big customer. This time, the negotiation covers the three sectors of furniture, infant clothing, and home textiles under the group, which is very important.
Although many available technical means have been used, Jin Ling's dark circles are still obvious. In the intervals between the talks, he frequently opened the thermos cup at hand to take a sip. There was coffee in it, and it was black coffee without anything added.
NextSourcingLimited is a very difficult company to negotiate with, and it has British arrogance and European refined leisure. It is very unrealistic to sign a contract with them quickly, but it is also a company that is worth working hard for. It can be said to be the best in the British comprehensive retail industry.
Therefore, Jiasheng has also made long-term preparations. Although everyone in the negotiation team is so busy at this time, seeing the other party talking slowly, they want to press fast forward one after another, but they still have patience and try to take care of the other party's rhythm. Only during the intermission, they returned to their nature one by one, squeezed into several meeting rooms, and contacted other customers with extremely high efficiency.
There is no way. These days, old customers, prospective customers, and new customers who are contacted for the first time are all crowded together, but none of them can be ignored.
Jin Ling finally had the opportunity to call Feng Yiping back, "Have you arrived? Then I will bring them over in the evening to report to you about tomorrow's arrangements."
During the call, she rubbed her temples, which was really too tired.
"Thank you for your hard work!"
Jin Ling only said "hmm" and hung up the phone, leaning back in the chair and closing her eyes for a few minutes.
…………
Zhichang Company is also very busy.
Business is still very busy, and it is getting busier and busier. The second branch has been opened, and the third is also being prepared intensively. The number of employees has increased to 16. Even so, it is still no different from the previous few people, and everyone is busy non-stop.
Feng Yiping wants to come and take a look, adding extra tasks to the company.
This extra has two aspects.
The first is naturally the rectification of the company from top to bottom, from inside to outside.
From the company's operating procedures to various rules and regulations, the recent sales situation, the mental outlook of employees, the image of the business premises..., they all want to do their best.
Xiao Zhijie and Wang Changning both want to show the best side of themselves and the company to Feng Yiping.
This is not showing off, let alone bragging, but wanting to make close people happy for themselves.
Another aspect of this extra is that Xiao Zhijie, one of the responsible persons, actually volunteered to go to the furniture company to help when there are so many things to do.
In fact, before the autumn trade fair, Xiao Zhijie and Wang Changning both offered to help out after feeling the tense and busy atmosphere in the furniture company.
However, at this time, the furniture company lacked people who were proficient in business foreign languages, at least business English, who could receive buyers at the exhibition, or who could receive buyers who came to visit the company, and who were also capable of negotiation.
As for their spoken English, well, it was better not to mention it, so Xiong Yuliang politely declined their kindness. Although they could do other business, if the boss saw them doing some work that did not require much technical skills, he would probably not be too happy.
However, Xiao Zhijie, after picking up the goods at the furniture factory the day before yesterday, called Wang Changning and simply did not return to the company, saying that he would stay at the furniture factory to help, leaving all the things on Wang Changning.
Wang Changning asked at the time, "How about I come too?"
"No, no, the company always has to keep someone in charge," Xiao Zhijie said immediately at the time.
The one who made this guy so unreliable was naturally Fang Yingzhi.
Xiao Zhijie, who went to the warehouse to pick up the goods that day, saw Fang Yingzhi again. Although he knew it was wrong and that there would be no results, he still couldn't walk.
Couldn't he just follow her and look at her a few more times?
So, the reception team set up temporarily by the furniture company had an extra staff member who looked a little generous and a little fat. He seemed to be familiar with the company and the group's senior management, but when it came to doing things, he was absolutely amazing. He had a flexible mind and was very motivated. He even trotted when he walked.
Especially when President Jin arrived, he was 200% positive.
Later, I found out that this guy actually had a good company here. Zhichang, which came to pick up goods several times a day, was their company. Moreover, he was not only a classmate but also a good buddy with the boss.
No wonder he worked so hard?
With his joining, the incidental effect was that the enthusiasm of the whole team was greatly improved. Otherwise, what could we do? If this person casually mentioned in front of the boss that someone's work attitude needs to be improved, wouldn't he never be able to turn over in the group?
I can only say that they really think too much.
Xiao Zhijie's main purpose at this meeting was to meet Fang Yingzhi at the airport.
…………
Xiao Zhijie, a young boss whose career is booming, trotted towards the conference room with a large stack of freshly printed documents.
He was also very hard these two days. He was busy from 10 am to 10 pm almost without a break. It was often late at night when he rushed home.
But he also had to summarize Zhichang's work for the day with Wang Changning and discuss the work arrangements for the next day. Therefore, he usually went to bed around 2 o'clock, and had to get up early the next day to rush to the furniture factory...
The degree of hard work these two days was definitely comparable to Feng Yiping.
However, he was still very motivated. Although he didn't see Fang Yingzhi very often, as long as he knew that she was in the conference room or office not far away, or that she was about to come to the company from the exhibition site, Xiao felt full of strength.
When he was about to reach the meeting room, he saw Fang Yingzhi coming out of the office. He ran over with a smile, "Yingzhi, is there anything I can do?"
"Thank you for your hard work, Zhijie. I'll go get coffee for President Jin. Do you want one? I'll bring you one back."
"I'm really thirsty. Let's go together," Xiao Zhijie wiped the sweat from his head and followed Fang Yingzhi to the tea room. "How was the situation today?"
"Very good. President Ou said it would definitely not be lower than the level of the previous two days. It's just that this British customer today is really difficult to deal with."
"President Ou and his team are really amazing. There are only a few people in the foreign trade team, but the sales completed in one year account for more than 50% of the overall sales of the furniture company. Compared with them, we are just playing house."
"No, the improvement of the company's foreign trade performance is the result of the efforts of the whole company, and it is not just the credit of the foreign trade department. It's like you and Changning, who rely on yourselves to achieve the current results in a few months. It's really not easy,"
Xiao Zhijie liked to hear this, and his heart was as sweet as eating honey.
"Do you know?" Fang Yingzhi poured a glass of water for Xiao Zhijie, "Yiping arrived today,"
"I know, he called us,"
"Haha, with him here, we will definitely feel much more relaxed immediately,"
Seeing Fang Yingzhi's expression when she mentioned Feng Yiping, Xiao Zhijie, who knew the fact, couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "Brother, I really envy you!"
"That's right, with Yiping's participation, our performance at this autumn trade fair will definitely set a record," Xiao Zhijie said.
"I think it's almost certain," Fang Yingzhi smiled, "Just for this huge investment, he must have had it all planned out,"
"Zhijie, I'll ask you for a favor,"
"You say,"
"Yiping has been working too hard recently, of course, you've been working too hard, can you take this opportunity to go around together and have more rest?"
Although Xiao was inevitably a little bitter and sad in his heart, how could he refuse Fang Yingzhi's request, "No problem!"
