Spring Breeze 1991

"Mr. Jiang, you are the largest supplier of Yuanda Electric, and you are in constant contact with Mr. Lu. Can you tell me how many suppliers you want to add?"

Li Mei couldn't help asking.

She was right. Color TVs are currently the main selling product, and Yuanda Electric only has a long red card, which is a veritable exclusive business.

During this period of time, the life in Changhongchang couldn't be more nourishing.

They attached great importance to Yuanda Electric Appliances to an unprecedented height. Jiang Baoguo, as the sales manager, was based in Nangang and was wholeheartedly responsible for the connection with Yuanda Electric Appliances.

Facing everyone's gazes, Jiang Baoguo sighed softly, showing a rare sad face, and said, "I don't know very well, but one thing is clear, our color TVs will definitely not be the only ones on the shelves of Yuanda Electric Appliances in the future. .”

He shook his head slightly, and said, "I discussed this issue with Mr. Lu, and Mr. Lu made it clear that Yuanda Electric will build a chain store covering the whole country in the next three years. The goal is to build the first comprehensive home appliance store in the country."

"The number of suppliers in the catalog will definitely continue to increase, and we alone cannot support the demand of Yuanda Electric. But Mr. Lu said that so far, Yuanda Electric's focus is on domestic home appliances, which is very important for us. Good news for everyone."

Ms. Dong suddenly interjected, "Mr. Yao mentioned an idea, which can be summed up in four words, the trend of domestic products, referred to as Guochao. He seems to intend to start a war against imported home appliances."

"This is a good thing!" Fang Dezhong said pleasantly, patting his thigh repeatedly, "Our domestic home appliances have various problems, and the quality is not as good as foreign ones, but we started late and the price is cheaper, so we shouldn't be punished. The snub at the point of sale."

When this topic is brought up, everyone has something to say.

The cold winter of domestic power plants had already appeared in the early 80s. By last year, they couldn't bear it and collapsed, including the state-owned large factories like Changhong Factory.

At that time, in order to put up the banner of quality first, Haier refrigerators smashed 1985 defective products in one go in 76. According to the price of 800 yuan per unit at that time, it lost 7 to [-] yuan at a time.

Foreign brands headed by Japan and Germany were coming aggressively. It was against this background that several manufacturers gritted their teeth and agreed when Yuanda Electric asked for goods first and payment later.

There are too few manufacturers like Haier. Yao Yuan needs to support domestic products and guarantee the interests of customers. Therefore, Yuanda Electric has very high supplier access standards and has created an after-sales guarantee system.

His intention is obvious-to force manufacturers to reform and innovate!

"It's a bit exaggerated to start a war with imported home appliances. Until now, Yuanda Electric still has a counter for imported home appliances. But Mr. Yao did what he said, and indeed put all his sales resources on domestic home appliances."

Rong Hao expressed his opinion from a more objective point of view, "The three branches of Yuanda Electric in Guangdong City, Shenzhen City, and Xiangshan have entered the stage of interior decoration, and there is no problem with opening at the same time during the Spring Festival. If these three stores can gain a firm foothold, at least in the Delta region, Yuanda Electric will have the ability to wrestle with imported home appliances.”

"But our manufacturer will lose its status even more. The initiative is in the hands of the dealer. It's too aggrieved." Fang Dezhong shook his head and sighed.

No one answered Fang Dezhong's words.

When the atmosphere started to be awkward, Zhang Jing suddenly stood up and said, "Guys, I won't waste my time here, I have to go back overnight to catch production, sorry."

He left without saying a word.

Everyone looked at each other.

Seeing that the big boss of Yuanda Electric is about to arrive, he suddenly leaves at this time. Isn't this giving up the opportunity to win the share?

But Ms. Dong has a deeper understanding of Zhang Jing. This technical factory manager does not seem to be as ignorant of the world as the outside world has said, but his ideas and practices are more sharp.

Ms. Dong actually didn’t want to come here at all, because she saw keenly that Yao Yuan’s focus was on product quality and technological innovation, and Jiang Baoguo, who lives in Nangang and focuses on the relationship between management and Yuanda Electric Appliances, may cause trouble instead. Yao Yuan's disgust.

Instead of devoting time, energy and resources to this area, it is better to go back and do our best to pass the quality and technical barriers.

However, Lu Gongming personally called and asked her to come, so she couldn't refuse.

When everyone started chatting without saying a word, Yao Yuan came late after ten o'clock in the evening.

"I'm sorry everyone, I have delayed some time due to some temporary matters, please sit down, everyone please sit down."

As soon as Yao Yuan entered the door, he greeted everyone warmly, and found that they were rather restrained, so he joked, "I'm hosting a tea party, isn't it a Hongmen banquet? Why do you have such expressions?"

"Hahaha, Mr. Yao was joking, we are old friends, not to mention the Hongmen Banquet, it is the landmines, we should come or we will come." Jiang Baoguo smiled heartily, and sat down first after Yao Yuan sat down.

The others did not sit down immediately, but waited for Lin Wei, Lin Xiaohu, and Lu Gongming to sit down before sitting down.

Jiang Baoguo can rely on the old to sell the old, but they dare not.

Or rather, they won't do it.

The lowest rank is all vice presidents, including Jiang Baoguo, all suppliers are sales managers, so naturally they dare not mess up the order of this rank.

Yao Yuan glanced around, pointed to the scene, and said, "Today is New Year's Day, and I was going to treat everyone to a meal, but I couldn't spare time because of the worldly affairs, so I had to have a tea party with everyone. Let’s have a chat over tea. Yuanda Electric will hold a gala during the Spring Festival, and we invite you all to attend.”

Yuanda Electric is going to hold the Spring Festival Gala, and Yao Yuan will most likely attend, so it is not a specification that their sales manager can match.

This is the big deal.

You know, the opening time of the three branches in Guangdong City, Shenzhen City, and Xiangshan is the first day of the Lunar New Year. Who knows whether Yuanda Electric will make a big move.

Leaders at plant manager level must be present.

Everyone silently wrote down this matter.

Yao Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. Lu, please inform everyone about today's results."

He knew why everyone was restrained and anxious, so he simply asked Lu Gongming to announce today's sales results first.

Sure enough, the corners of everyone's mouths couldn't help showing smiles, and with nervous smiles, their eyes were fixed on Lu Gongming's face.

Lu Gongming was very serious. He took out his notebook and put it on the armrest of the chair to open it. When he thought he was going to read it, he coughed a little like a leader, then raised his tone and said, "Mr. Yao Under the wise leadership of the company, with the efforts of all our employees, and with the strong support of suppliers, our company launched a big promotion on New Year's Day."

He paused, raised his head and looked around, smiled and nodded slightly at everyone. After seeing everyone's throat swallowing with difficulty, he continued, "Today is the first day of the event. From 7 o'clock, the store has already started to line up, and by 9 o'clock, the queue has extended to both sides of Renmin Avenue, and the sales are booming..."

It's all nonsense, everyone has seen it.

The impatient Rong Hao was very upset, he wished he could go up and grab the notebook to read it.
