Zhu Xuefeng was very satisfied when he saw that Jiang Fangzhou accepted his opinions readily. He was a smart man. As expected, there was no need to beat the drum again, so he continued with a smile.
“That’s right, you are now the top manager in North America. You must effectively perform your management functions and learn to motivate and encourage others to implement your intentions. This is a science. Progress is very slow if you try on your own. Find a business school and recharge your batteries. I’ll wait to see your results.” Take the time to study hard and further enrich and improve yourself.”
Jiang Fangzhou calmed down and quickly discovered his shortcomings. The company is now developing rapidly. He likes this kind of company full of opportunities. You must never allow yourself to fail to keep up with the development of the company. You really lack a lot in management.
“It’s good if you have ideas. There are many ways to learn. You can consider some more models. For example, ask someone to teach you. Everyone must make progress. Make a good plan. The company will reimburse the training expenses. This money is not needed. You can do it yourself. You are the first batch of pioneers in the company. I hope you can grow quickly and be used in many places in the future."
Zhu Xuefeng turned around and focused on other areas. The development situation, generally speaking, has passed the most difficult initial stage and is developing rapidly.
Beverages have also become popular in cities and states where colleges and universities are concentrated. It has only been less than two months since its arrival in North America. In some states, there is already a vague trend of challenging the two traditional beverage giants, especially In public places and sports venues, Dongsheng's magical drink has replaced the two traditional colas, and has attracted the attention of the two major beverage companies.
“This is also in accordance with the requirements of the head office. We first sponsored the sports meets of several college students. It was embarrassing at first. Even if we provided it for free, the other parties were not very interested. Later, President Wu personally made the decision and provided it for free. At the same time, we also provide financial support, so we have the opportunity to sponsor.”
The popularity is due to word of mouth from college students. When it comes to the development of beverages, it is much more difficult than the development of heavy motorcycles. The two colas in the traditional beverage market have deep-rooted status in the hearts of these college students. Fortunately, after the tired athletes tried this novel happy drink after the game, they felt that their fatigue was gone and their physical strength was quickly restored. This made it an instant hit. , quickly spread in North American universities.
Zhu Xuefeng was not surprised. He had expected this setback a long time ago. He even personally designated the breakthrough point to open up the market. However, problems arose later and Wu Qianqian made the decision personally. No one told him. It seems that Wu Qianqian also A lot more mature.
"Well, everything is difficult at the beginning. From now on, normal marketing will be enough. Regarding beverages, the head office has unified marketing methods, so you don't need to pay too much attention."
"But boss, it's not something we should pay attention to now. This magical drink has become popular in many cities and is known as "Happy Coke". We are now in short supply and many salespeople are complaining that they cannot get the goods. We have reported the situation to the head office. "
< br>Zhu Xuefeng was a little surprised at this. He originally thought that it would take some time to gain market share in the two types of cola bowls. Waiting for word-of-mouth to slowly ferment, he did not expect that in just a few months, even the name "Happy Coke" would All heads are up.
"What's the reply from the head office?" Zhu Xuefeng didn't really understand the matter and asked quickly.
“People from the head office have come to inspect and say that they want to build a filling plant here. This is not handled by us. Relevant personnel from the head office are responsible for selecting the site. I am not sure about the specific situation. "
"Well, you don't have to worry about this." It seems that Wu Qianqian responded in a timely manner. Zhu Xuefeng stopped paying attention and reminded her again that herbal cultivation in the autonomous region must be expanded, otherwise it will not be available in North America. consumption.
There was movement at the door. It turned out to be the waiter bringing afternoon tea in.
After taking the coffee from Jiang Fangzhou and waiting for the service staff to push the cart out the door, Zhu Xuefeng asked again. It is said that the down jackets of "Arctic Man" are also selling well. What is the current situation? "
Jiang Fangzhou seemed a little embarrassed. While adding sugar cubes to his coffee, he couldn't help but scratch his head. He seemed to be still young and couldn't hide his thoughts.
"Boss, I just I know that Bald Eagle completed a total of more than 17 million yuan in sales last year, and more than 6.7 million yuan was completed in the first quarter of this year. The specifics are not clear. This was done by Ms. Zhang Yan, the second person in charge of North America. In charge, these are the data reported by her. I don’t know much about Maple Leaf Country’s sales situation. ”
Zhu Xuefeng nodded. He asked deliberately. He had long heard that Jiang Fangzhou was very capable of developing markets, but he preferred motorcycles and mechanical and electrical products, and had little interest in clothing. He handed over all clothing management to Zhu Xuefeng could understand their specific division of labor, as long as it did not affect the general direction. However, as the person in charge of North America, Jiang Fangzhou was not clear about the specific data, which was indeed somewhat inappropriate.
The reason why I reminded him just now is that he knows these situations. Jiang Fangzhou has achieved a lot, but as the general person in charge of North America, some things are still not done well. The two of them have discussed this issue just now. , naturally I won’t hold on to it anymore, just hit it.
North America is an important source of income in Zhu Xuefeng's plan. Now that he is here, after Zhu Xuefeng fully understands the construction of the North American business model, he teaches Jiang Fangzhou for several hours. There is a lot of content, and he can How much he can remember depends on his understanding. It seems to be working well now. It can be seen that Jiang Fangzhou is very serious and his eyes are shining. This knowledge has never been heard before. It is very novel. The boss's wisdom is indeed unfathomable.
Seeing Jiang Fangzhou’s unconcealable joy, Zhu Xuefeng looked at his watch and had a long conversation. It was almost seven o’clock, and Zhu Xuefeng was already hungry. When Jiang Fangzhou saw his boss looking at the time, he also realized that it was not early. , apologized quickly.
"Boss, I'm sorry, I'll arrange dinner right now. I'm really sorry. What you said was so wonderful, I..."
Zhu Xuefeng stopped Jiang Fangzhou's apology with a smile, "It doesn't matter, let's keep talking. I’m talking, I didn’t pay attention to the time, don’t bother, let’s go for a walk and have something to eat.”
Zhu Xuefeng was dressed casually and really didn’t want to change clothes and go to the hotel. Besides, he was interested in North America. I don’t have much interest in food, but I want to see the night view of this military port city.
After the boss spoke, Jiang Fangzhou had no choice but to give up and accompany him downstairs. Zhu Xuefeng refused to take the bus.
"Just walk around casually, I remember there is a Colonel's fast food not far from here, just a little bit away."
The two walked casually, the climate on the east coast is relatively different Pleasant, the temperature of the seaside avenue is neither hot nor cold, very comfortable. There are not many people on the street. From time to time, military jeeps carry the navy swaggering through the city. This should be the soldiers of the aircraft carrier fleet in the harbor on vacation.
The sea in the distance, the sunset in the evening pours on the sea level like molten gold, also covering the city with a gorgeous orange-red coat, and the sea breeze blows gently, carrying a slightly salty atmosphere.
Wandering outside the KFC restaurant in Blinken Street, I saw a sparse group of twenty people holding signs, seemingly protesting something. They looked like bald eagles. Seeing Zhu Xuefeng looking at the slogan on the sign, Jiang Fangzhou hurriedly Explain on the side.
"Boss, these are vegetarians. They protest outside KFC restaurants every week. This is the case in many cities. How about we change places."
Jiang Fangzhou is a little unhappy. Understand why this big boss, who has unimaginable wealth, is young but full of wisdom, would come to this kind of fast food restaurant. You know, this kind of fast food restaurant is not high-end in North America. It is just a kind of fast food, and it only has chicken. The burgers cost less than one dollar, which was extremely inconsistent with the boss's status. Little did he know that Zhu Xuefeng had not tasted this stuff for many years and it was just a whim. Looking at a woman with the waist of a bucket, Zhu Xuefeng was also amused, "Vegetarians? Don't worry about them, let's go in."
The two passed through the back row of the protesting crowd, but He was stopped by a young white woman with silver hair.
"Sir, do you want to eat inside?"
"Is there any problem?"
"No, no, no, this is so inhumane, those poor people Cows and weak chickens are all living beings like you and me. They have the right to live on this land. You cannot support these cruel butchers. If you still have a little compassion, please eat somewhere else..."
Zhu Xuefeng pretended to be thoughtful and seemed to think about it for a while.
"Dear Madam, your broad mind makes me feel ashamed. What you said makes sense. Is there a suitable place to eat nearby, a cheaper place? You know, I don't have much money in my pocket."
The white woman looked at Zhu Xuefeng's casual attire. It was really worthless, but Jiang Fangzhou beside him seemed to be a man who was not short of money. She looked at the two of them unexpectedly again and pointed not far away. at the seaside.
“It is close to the sea. It would be a good choice for you to go to the beach to eat some seafood. Believe me, the sea fish there are very fresh. Except for the blue tuna, the others are not too expensive and taste very good. Yes, you will be satisfied. Thank you again for your support.”
The white woman gave a suggestion. There are several small shops here that sell seafood. Although it is more expensive than KFC, it is not impossible. Accept it, as long as you don't order expensive ones.
“However, the seafood sold there is also alive, and they seem to have the right to live in this ocean.”
Zhu Xuefeng smiled and said, the silver-haired woman was stunned, they had always been opposed Slaughtering poultry and mammals, and claiming to be vegetarian, is actually considered a "semi-vegetarian" at best. A true "vegetarian" does not even touch dairy products, let alone seafood.
Seeing that the woman was confused, Zhu Xuefeng smiled and left with Jiang Fangzhou and entered the restaurant. Inside, the customers were enjoying their fast food time and seemed not to be affected at all by the protesting crowd outside.
"Boss, don't mind. These people usually don't harass customers. Today we may see that we are Asians and are treated a little bit specially."
Zhu Xuefeng doesn't care. When does this happen? It has become more and more intense decades later, and has developed to the point where celebrities are vigorously advocating, calling on people across the country to pursue a "vegetarian diet", and righteously preaching about the respect for life and the significance of vegetarianism to one's own health, completely forgetting their The reason our ancestors were able to survive in nature was because of their hunting skills. Our early ancestors didn't even have fire, but they could eat them alive.
The two casually ordered a few dishes at the ordering counter, leaving Jiang Fangzhou to wait while Zhu Xuefeng came to the seat facing the street to wait.
At this time, a young Asian man also walked into the restaurant. He had slightly curly black hair, striking and deep black eyes, fair skin, a seemingly gorgeous half-robe-style top and a pair of brand-new jeans. Carrying a brand new backpack, he must be a student or tourist who has just arrived in this city. The unique dress and typical ethnic appearance made Zhu Xuefeng confirm immediately that this was the third brother, and pointed out his fair skin. , this person should be a high-caste person.
At this time, the third brother was very keen to study abroad in Europe and North America. Of course, those who could study abroad had a certain economic foundation, such as their high castes.
He also walked to the ordering counter and ordered a set meal skillfully. Jiang Fangzhou had already brought the tray over, and the two started directly. Zhu Xuefeng drank a Coke with ice first. It was really It was no different from the later generations. The refreshing feeling spread all of a sudden in the body. It was indeed very good. If this thing hadn't been too high in sugar, it would have been a good drink.
"Sorry, I ordered a chicken burger, not this beef one." There was movement not far away, it was the young man who came in just now, pointing at the burger and saying.
When the waiter handed him the food, he discovered that the burger was not the one he ordered. He was confused and explained the situation to the waiter in slightly accented English.
The waiter was a young black woman, a young man who looked a little busy and slightly impatient. He glanced at the burger in the other person's hand and said, "This is the burger you ordered, that's right. "
The young man was a little dissatisfied and insisted that he ordered another one. At this time, the black waiter became a little impatient and raised his voice a little bit: "Sir, this is what you ordered. Let's press the button. You won’t go wrong with your order.”
The surrounding customers began to notice the dispute here and cast curious glances. The young man felt a little embarrassed and annoyed. He felt that he had been treated unfairly and his dignity had been offended, especially by a black woman who was as noble as him.
But this is the territory of the bald eagle after all, and he seemed to be aware of this. He was trying to stay calm, explained his situation again, and asked to see the ordering records.
“You can look at the record of my order just now. It’s easy, isn’t it.”
A very beautiful young woman came out of the catering studio at the back. Coincidentally, she was also Asian.
"Jennifer, it's time for me to get off work. I've packed up everything in the back. You can take a look."
The black woman was very impatient, "Damn, George and the others haven't come yet. You can't leave, as you can see, today's work is not going well, those damn grass eaters are protesting outside again, and this gentleman is still struggling here."
The black woman seems to be a foreman, not at all. He didn't care about the Asian woman's feelings and directly vetoed her decision. The Asian woman explained tactfully.
"But I was supposed to get off work half an hour ago. I'm sorry, I won't be able to get back on time if it's too late. I have to go. If you can't decide, I'll go find the manager." (End of chapter) )
