Rebirth: Back to 1993 as the richest man

Chapter 515 Interview with Zhong Zhiqiang

In the interview room.

After hearing Chu Tianyao's words, Lu Qiuyu's first reaction was surprise.

It never occurred to her that Chu Tianyao actually agreed to let Zhong Zhiqiang join the marketing team.

Others may not know, but how could Lu Qiuyu not know how much Chu Tianyao attaches importance to this marketing team.

Just talking about the threshold for the first round of interviews is enough for 90.00% of domestic companies.

"intern?"

However, completely different from Lu Qiuyu's reaction, after hearing Chu Tianyao's words, Zhong Zhiqiang pursed his lips and did not hide the dissatisfaction in his eyes at all.

"Forget it, with my appearance, I probably won't be able to find a good next home for the time being, so let's do it with you first."

After hesitating for a moment, Zhong Zhiqiang asked Chu Tianyao again: "Tell me about the treatment of interns, and besides...if possible, can you advance half a month's salary first."

"what?"

As soon as Zhong Zhiqiang finished speaking, Lu Qiuyu suddenly looked sullen, "You haven't joined the job yet, and you still want to advance your salary?

This request is too unreasonable! "

Regarding Zhong Zhiqiang's attitude, Lu Qiuyu was more displeased at the moment.

Advance salary is not a big problem, but this is the first time Lu Qiuyu has heard of this person getting salary advance before joining the job.

Coupled with the fact that Zhong Zhiqiang had been in prison, and he was arrogant about his talents, to be honest, Lu Qiuyu did not have a good impression of this person.

"Okay, let the property pay him 200 yuan!"

Before Zhong Zhiqiang could explain, Chu Tianyao generously agreed.

"Let's say it first, the 200 yuan is my loan to you. There is no such thing as an advance salary before joining the company. This is the rule!"

Chu Tianyao looked at Zhong Zhiqiang, and continued: "In addition, the salary for interns is 300 yuan, and after becoming a full-time marketing specialist, it is 500 yuan a month. This is just the basic salary, and there is also a performance bonus!"

500 yuan a month with a bonus, Zhong Zhiqiang was a little surprised by the salary offered by Chu Tianyao.

Even in Shenzhen, where the economy is developed today, there are not many jobs that can get a monthly salary of 300 yuan, which is not bad compared to some foreign companies.

"Do you still have any questions?

While I'm free now, you'd better bring it up in person, otherwise I won't be in the mood to talk to you face to face from tomorrow on. "

Glancing at the wall clock on the wall, it was already lunch time, Chu Tianyao immediately said to Zhong Zhiqiang.

On the side, seeing that Chu Tianyao agreed to Zhong Zhiqiang's conditions, Lu Qiuyu intervened a little unhappy, without saying a word.

"I want to know, is it true or not that you paid a sky-high price to win Ericsson's exclusive agency rights?"

Sitting in his original position, Zhong Zhiqiang was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked Chu Tianyao.

As soon as these words came out, even Lu Qiuyu's complexion changed slightly.

Except for her and Chu Tianyao, no one else in the entire Xingyao Technology knows about such a confidential matter. Zhong Zhiqiang asked so openly that it was hard not to make people doubt his truth.

The opponent is very likely to be a pawn sent by others to test the depth of Xingyao's technology.

Lu Qiuyu glanced at Chu Tianyao, with a reminder in his eyes.

However, seeing Zhong Zhiqiang looking at Lu Qiuyu, Chu Tianyao shrugged and said:

"Since they are all smart people, I don't need to be too clear about it. In a word, if we can't win the Guangdong market, I will lose a huge sum of money in half a year. Therefore, the marketing team I want to build must be well-known. He is a good soldier with one enemy against ten."

It's not what Chu Tianyao wanted to say, but Lu Qiuyu's performance was too obvious. Zhong Zhiqiang should be able to guess the sky-high agency fee after seeing Lu Qiuyu's reaction, which may not be true.

"So, you have signed a gambling agreement?"

As expected of someone who has run a multinational company, Zhong Zhiqiang reacted immediately after hearing Chu Tianyao's words.

"No wonder, people outside are suspecting that Xingyao Technology does not have much fame and strength. How could Ericsson give you the agency rights?"

Zhong Zhiqiang looked at Chu Tianyao, who was nearly ten years younger than him, with a hint of admiration in his eyes.

"Being able to win Ericsson shows that your bet is definitely not small this time, but relying on a marketing team alone, do you really think you can win the Guangdong market?

Or, within half a year, can you beat Motorola? "

Zhong Zhiqiang said with a smile on his face.

"How do you know if you don't try?"

Facing Zhong Zhiqiang's words, Chu Tianyao laughed, showing two rows of white teeth, still the standard harmless smile for humans and animals.

Zhong Zhiqiang was stunned by Chu Tianyao's answer.

Just a try?

But to take such a big risk to try, not to mention other people, even Zhong Zhiqiang who dared to take advantage of policy loopholes back then, did not have such courage.

Although he didn't know how big the bet Chu Tianyao had signed with Ericsson, the bet would definitely not be small.

If it fails, the losses that Xingyao Technology will face in the future after half a year are definitely beyond the imagination of outsiders.

"You've asked so many questions, so it's my turn to ask you!"

Just when Zhong Zhiqiang frowned and thought, Chu Tianyao's voice suddenly sounded.

Zhong Zhiqiang heard the words, and the corner of his mouth slightly curled up: "Of course, from now on, you are my boss, so I naturally know everything and say everything."

Compared with just now, Zhong Zhiqiang's attitude towards Chu Tianyao at this moment seems to have undergone an imperceptible change.

"How much do you know about our company?"

When Chu Tianyao opened his mouth, the first question was a bit surprising.

Zhong Zhiqiang just paused, and then replied: "To be honest, as early as three hours ago, I didn't even know that there was a company like yours."

"what?

How did you know we were looking for a marketing specialist? "

Zhong Zhiqiang's answer made Lu Qiuyu couldn't help asking.

"Of course I saw it in the newspaper. Your company has spent such a large amount of money to advertise in the Guangdong Provincial People's Daily. There should be quite a few people who know the news."

Zhong Zhiqiang replied [-].

This answer also made Lu Qiuyu a little speechless.

Other job seekers, even if they have never heard of Shining Star Technology before, will do some background research on the company before applying.

On the other hand, Zhong Zhiqiang, Lu Qiuyu's forehead went dark, and it was the first time she had seen such a wonderful person.

"Ericsson's business is not connected to our company's main business, and it doesn't matter if you don't understand it."

Chu Tianyao didn't seem to be too surprised, but asked Zhong Zhiqiang again:

"Since you are here to apply for a marketing specialist, I want to know, what do you think of my plan?"

As soon as Chu Tianyao said this, Lu Qiuyu was a little surprised.

In the previous interviews, Chu Tianyao had never asked such a question.

You know, every time Chu Tianyao makes plans, even Lu Qiuyu and others around him, he rarely consults them.

Zhong Zhiqiang is just an intern who has just been hired, but Chu Tianyao seems to value this guy very much.

Sitting in front of Chu Tianyao, upon hearing this question, Zhong Zhiqiang put away the relaxed smile just now, showing a trace of solemnity.

Glancing at the wall clock on the wall, he immediately asked Chu Tianyao, "Can I smoke here?"

"What?"

Lu Qiuyu's expression froze, as if a little unresponsive.

"Draw me this!"

Chu Tianyao smiled and took out the cigarette case and lighter from his coat pocket, and threw them on Zhong Zhiqiang's desk.

"Huazi, it's not bad. In the past few years, I'm not used to smoking other cigarettes. I only smoke this one so I don't cough."

Zhong Zhiqiang grinned, and then took out a self-serving stick and lit it.

Seeing the expression of enjoyment on the other party's face, Lu Qiuyu's eyes became more disgusted.

"It's over, this is another old smoking gun!"

In the room, the smoke was half burned.

Several minutes passed, Zhong Zhiqiang shook the soot, and then looked at Chu Tianyao in front of him again.

At this moment, Lu Qiuyu suddenly noticed that the other party's eyes seemed to be a little different.

"Let's talk about the answer first. It is not impossible to beat Motorola in the Guangdong market within half a year."

Zhong Zhiqiang held half of the cigarette between his fingers, took a puff and said:

"There are two sub-provincial-level cities, 23 prefecture-level cities and [-] county-level cities in Guangdong Province. If I remember correctly, Motorola's biggest reliance should be the supply and marketing channels in cooperation with the Post and Telecommunications Bureau. When purchasing products, post offices can conveniently register and pay fees, which is their biggest advantage.”

Hearing this, Chu Tianyao also nodded.

"Go on, tell me what you think!"

Zhong Zhiqiang took a puff of cigarette, and exhaled a wisp of smoke from his nose.

"As the saying goes, if you are poor, you will change, and if you change, you will succeed. It is undoubtedly courting death to compete with Motorola. I think our focus should be on the sinking market that Motorola cannot touch."

"Sinking the market?"

When Lu Qiuyu heard the words, he blurted out unconsciously.

"That's right, Motorola's biggest advantage lies in the supply and marketing channels of the Post Office. However, Motorola has lived too comfortably these years, resulting in low productivity and slow expansion of related channels. The supply and marketing channels of the Post Office can only cover prefecture-level cities. But in the county-level city market, everyone is at the same starting point.”

When Zhong Zhiqiang said these words, Lu Qiuyu suddenly realized something.

That's right, outsiders always think that Motorola has an invincible position in the market by cooperating with the Post and Telecommunications Bureau and possessing extremely powerful supply and marketing channels.

But after careful analysis, Motorola is simply not enough to support such a large sales network, at least the 23 county-level cities that they cannot cover.

In such county-level cities, it is almost always difficult for consumers to buy mobile phones. They often have to wait for more than half a month just in line, and many people even go to prefecture-level cities to buy them.

"Even if we win all the county-level city markets, compared with the prefecture-level city markets occupied by Motorola, our scale is still too small."

After Zhong Zhiqiang finished speaking, Chu Tianyao pointed out the biggest problem of this plan.

That's right!

So what if you occupy all the county-level city markets.

How many consumers can afford mobile phones in a mere county-level city.

Often two or three county-level cities can match the consumption level of a prefecture-level city.

It is almost impossible to win against Motorola based on this alone.

"Of course it's more than that. With the support of county-level cities, the role of the marketing team can really be played at this time."

The cigarette had already been burned, Zhong Zhiqiang snuffed out the cigarette butt, threw it under his feet and stomped it out, and then took another one out of the cigarette case.

"Hey, I haven't smoked such a good cigarette for several years."

Zhong Zhiqiang grinned and lit his cigarette again.

Lu Qiuyu turned a blind eye to this, but hurriedly asked: "What do you mean by what you just said?

What do we have to do to beat Motorola? "

Lu Qiuyu looked a little anxious.

Compared to Chu Tianyao who was still yawning while sitting on the sidelines, she looked like the one who signed a huge VAM agreement with Ericsson.

"Assistant Lu, you don't need to ask me about this, I believe Mr. Chu already has a plan!"

Zhong Zhiqiang was smoking a cigarette, but smiled and said to Lu Qiuyu.

After finishing speaking, his eyes were also on Chu Tianyao.

Zhong Zhiqiang has been observing Chu Tianyao's reaction ever since he said those words just now.

If the other party showed a surprised expression like Lu Qiuyu, Zhong Zhiqiang would be disappointed instead, which proves that Chu Tianyao is not as powerful as he thought at all.

As a result, he did not think that Shining Star Technology had the possibility of winning this battle.

But different from what he thought, after hearing what he said, Chu Tianyao not only looked calm, but actually yawned several times out of boredom.

This shows that in Chu Tian Yaoyan's eyes, his plan may only be ordinary.

In this way, Zhong Zhiqiang became even more curious.

Just how powerful is this young man in front of him?

At this moment, he brought the topic to Chu Tianyao because he wanted to test Chu Tianyao's true thoughts.

He wants to determine whether the company he is about to join has the possibility of becoming bigger and stronger.

"Eat a piece of cake, and you won't be able to finish it if you are full. If you share it with everyone, you will naturally eat it quickly."

During the scene, Chu Tianyao suddenly said such words inexplicably.

Lu Qiuyu and Zhong Zhiqiang were also taken aback, as if they didn't understand why.

"Speaking of food, I'm really hungry."

Chu Tianyao looked up at the wall clock on the wall, it was getting closer, Dang even stood up and said: "It's getting late, let's go here today!"

After speaking, Chu Tianyao planned to get up and leave.

"Mr. Chu, that... there is one more thing!"

Zhong Zhiqiang spoke suddenly and called Chu Tianyao to a halt.

"Anything else?"

Chu Tianyao frowned slightly, and turned to look at Zhong Zhiqiang.

If this guy still dares to make a condition with him, Chu Tianyao doesn't mind kicking him out of the company.

"Well, I came out just now, and I don't have a place to stay tonight. If it's convenient, can you let me sleep in the company for the time being? I think the company is so big, and there are many rooms vacant..."

Zhong Zhiqiang said.

On the way here, he had observed that the Xingyao Building had seven floors, but after reaching the third floor, there were no people there.

"Qiu Yu, you will call Hu Zhibiao later and ask him to arrange an empty room in the factory dormitory building, and let this guy go by himself."

Chu Tianyao threw these words at Lu Qiuyu, and immediately left the room without looking back.

"300 yuan a month, and I will cover your accommodation, so you can have fun!"

Before leaving, Lu Qiuyu also glanced at Zhong Zhiqiang and said.

Although he didn't like the person in front of him, after hearing Zhong Zhiqiang's words, Lu Qiuyu felt that maybe Chu Tianyao was right, this guy might really have some skills.

"Come on, I don't know where to live... For Bao Huazi's sake, I'll be an intern for now."

Zhong Zhiqiang also stood up, seeing that Chu Tianyao hadn't put the cigarette back, he put Huazi into his pocket on his own.

"Cake to share?

Mr. Chu is a bit interesting. "

Watching Chu Tianyao and Lu Qiuyu leave, Zhong Zhiqiang had a cigarette in his mouth, but his eyes showed some strangeness.
