Volume 4: The World of Great Conflict Chapter 0584 If you want others to work hard for you, do your best first
"When will you be able to complete the advertising plan?"
"I don't have time to do it right now. I've been looking for candidates for the Planning Department these past two days."
"Oh, I said, please record it."
Yang Kaiyan took out a notebook and opened it, then took out a pen, shook it, and made some marks on the paper.
"The head of the advertising department of the Imperial Television is Chu Yuejin, 54 years old this year; the deputy head is Jin Que'er, 23 years old this year; Jin Que'er and I are schoolmates, so we are quite close. I have had contact with her before, but she tricked me.
Ya Xiya needs to advertise during prime time on the Imperial TV station, and Gen Zheng Miao Hong needs a contract to buy out the advertising time. The longer the contract, the better. You get the buyout contract done, and I will be responsible for earning 10 million for Gen Zheng Miao Hong. "
"RMB?"
“US dollars.”
"How long will it take?"
Nan Yi put down the documents in his hand, stared into Yang Kaiyan's eyes and said: "I am the superior, you are the subordinate, remember to say please next time."
“Ha.” Yang Kaiyan chuckled, straightened her body and said, “Excuse me, how long will it take?”
"About two years."
"That's not a small amount. So, I have gained your initial recognition. Genzhengmiaohong is no longer a dispensable company?"
"It has never been." Nan Yi said affirmatively, and then said: "Help me to teach Jin Queer a lesson and leave some room for her. I have a good relationship with her father."
"To what extent?"
"The breakthrough point is Chu Yuejin. Just hit Jinqueer and that'll be it. Follow me and get Qiao." Nan Yi muttered.
"What's Nacho?"
"It's almost like he's trying to embarrass me on purpose and raise his own status."
"I see. Is she pretty?"
"Lesbian?"
"General Manager Nan, this joke is not funny at all." Yang Kaiyan said with a straight face.
"Yes, it's not funny. So, you don't need to ask what she looks like. Just remember that she is our enemy."
"She is not an enemy. I will never give my enemies any leeway." Yang Kaiyan said seriously.
"Use the time you spend arguing with me to start a 'war between two women', fake foreigner vs fake tsundere, Round 1, I bet on you to win."
Yang Kaiyan rolled her eyes before saying, "Let's wait and see."
Knock knock knock!
"Come in."
The door was pushed open, and a beautiful figure walked in and said, "General Manager Nan, there is a comrade named Wang Li who wants to see you."
The visitor was Han Meili, the administrative receptionist of Yaqing Company, commonly known as the front desk clerk. She was from the suburbs of Beijing and was a publicly funded technical secondary school student who just graduated this year. She should have been one of the top students when she was in school.
At this time, many top students in rural areas would choose to attend public technical secondary schools rather than key high schools. It is a very difficult task for a family that makes a living from the land to support one person to go to school.
Usually, behind every rural college student there is a pair of parents who work so hard that they are unrecognizable and whose backs are so tired that they cannot even stand up straight. They may even lose their self-esteem and hunch over to beg for money in the village.
One word, "borrow", can accurately summarize the rural history of the 1980s. All happiness and suffering cannot escape borrowing on credit.
The common phenomenon in rural areas nowadays is to eat a mixture of fine grains and coarse grains, which basically solves the problem of food and clothing, but there is no money to be made all year round. The eggs laid by hens are used to solve the family's oil, salt, sauce and vinegar. To buy cloth to make clothes and to support children's education, one has to keep an eye on the fat pigs and the grain in the granary.
They either sold half-grown pigs or carried some grain from the grain storage cabinet to sell secretly outside. Yes, "secretly". They could not sell it to the grain station. At that time, most local grain stations had their own credit value system and circulated an internal currency called "white strip currency".
Whenever a family had just experienced a wedding or funeral, or there was a sick person in the family, the mother would spread out her handkerchief and if there were not many big bills in it, the family could be considered wealthy if there were a few small bills.
Rural people choose to go to technical secondary schools not because they lack foresight, but because it is a helpless choice in reality.
The arrival of Han Meili triggered many memories and thoughts in Nan Yi. After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and said, "Oh, invite her over."
"OK."
"Chief Yang, when will the planning department be completed?"
"It will take some time. Christmas just passed overseas and New Year is coming soon in China. It's hard to find someone now."
"We need to hurry up. Advertising should be done before the building is completed. I hope that in the future there will be potential consumers visiting our construction site every day. I will have someone draw a huge building rendering and put it on the construction site."
“Good idea.” Yang Kaiyan praised.
"Thank you. Now, please, get out."
"Sorry, I forgot you're going to have guests coming soon." Yang Kaiyan said pretending to be stupid.
"Sorry, if I didn't speak up, you would continue sitting there." Nan Yi complained in his heart.
Nan Yi guessed that Yang Kaiyan was consciously trying to get to know him better, collecting every bit of information about him, wanting to become the "enemy" who knew him best. Yes, an enemy, an enemy worth 38.7 million US dollars.
Trained in Wall Street, he was used to short-term speculation in the financial market. He didn't get any advantage from Nan Yi, which meant a huge loss for Yang Kaiyan.
When Wang Jue, who looked very happy, entered the office, Nan Yi said, "You look so happy, do you smell honey?"
"What are you sniffing at? Walkerman's is sold out, and I've become a millionaire." Wang Li lit a cigarette as he sat down and said happily.
"If it's selling well, just go find Lin Guangwei to get more goods. Didn't I introduce you two to each other last time?"
"I've already hung up the phone. You know what? Your face is very useful. I ordered 500 units this time, and they just shipped them directly without asking for money."
"The amount you want is not much, it's not a big deal for Lin Guangwei."
"People in the south are good at doing business. He didn't mention it, which made me feel embarrassed. I kept some money for cigarettes and alcohol for myself, and remitted the rest to him. We had mutton hotpot in the yard tonight."
"Okay, I'll be a little later. Is that what you came here for?"
"No, I just went to the dance academy and came here on the way."
"You've gone quite far on this road, six kilometers straight away." Nan Yi teased.
The dance academy is on Wanshousi Road. Although it and Yannanyuan are both in Haidian District, even if you draw a straight line, the two places are five kilometers apart.
"Okay, I won't hold it. I've got my eyes on the honey this time." Wang Lu said with a smack of his lips.
"Okay, buddy, I'm going all out. When you get married, leave the three major items to me. I'll find you whatever brand you want."
"Being a bitch, the three big things are difficult for others, but they are easy for you." Wang Lu crushed the cigarette butt into the ashtray and said, "Okay, I won't disturb you from working. Come back early tonight."
"You guys eat first, I'll be there around 6:40."
"become."
…
Even when Nan Yi was busy, he would stop and smell the air.
The beginning of 1985 gave him a feeling very much like the lyrics of a song - follow your feelings, hold on to your dreams, and your steps become lighter and happier.
Su Rui has become a big star, but no one knows what a certain girl from the mainland who will use the stage name "Su Bing" to scam her in the future is doing.
On the day when Teachers' Day was established, Nan Yi disappeared.
When he appeared again, it was already January 20th, the Great Cold.
These days, he went to see his eldest son. He felt that his son was a dear to him and that if he didn't go to keep him company, not to mention treating his son equally, he wouldn't be able to keep his son.
After coming back, Nan Yi focused more on his work. He wanted to get Yaqing back on the right track as soon as possible and get out of this situation as soon as possible.
There is only one month left until the Spring Festival, and it is time to prepare New Year’s goods for employees.
What's more, there are still 382 veterans who have been assigned to Yaqing Company and are still staying in the logistics base. There is no other way. Yaqing has not yet solved the problem of dormitory buildings, so they can only let them live in the military area temporarily.
The military district can help solve the housing problem, but Yaqing Company will have to pay for food.
The food can be arranged by the military district, but the New Year benefits must not be missed. Each person will be given five kilograms of meat, and they will hand it over to the canteen at the logistics base. It will give them face when they tell others about it, and they won't be an eyesore.
They are veterans, but they have retired after all. When they stay for a few days, everyone pours out their heartfelt feelings with tears in their eyes, but when they stay for several months, the feeling is different. Yaqing Company must know how to do it.
There were 327 employees participating in the training, 382 veterans, and 750 to 760 office staff. Five kilograms of meat for each person would require more than twenty large fat pigs, which are impossible to buy on the market.
Nan Yi and He Ping were staking out at the gate of the Fourth Meat Processing Plant. The plant's director, Zhu Manyuan, had disappeared, and the two went to his office twice but couldn't find him.
"Mr. Nan, do you think Zhu Manyuan will not come today?" He Ping asked while biting a fried pancake.
"He has to come today. I've already inquired about it. The meat processing factory has a regular meeting on Tuesday, and he will definitely attend. This grandson is really good at hiding. He doesn't even go home."
"This year, many factories in Beijing have achieved good results and have to distribute some pork for the New Year. The meat from the meat processing plant is simply not enough."
"I know, otherwise why would Zhu Manyuan hide? Everyone is begging him, and this is a good time to build connections. I hope Mudan Factory has not contacted him, otherwise our TV ticket will not work, and the cost of changing to other tickets will increase."
Leng Yan had a good negotiation with Radio Factory No. 4, and Yaqing could get a batch of Kaige black-and-white televisions from them at a low price, which could be used to exchange for New Year's goods with other units.
"Mudan should look for the Second Meat Processing Plant, which is close by."
"That would be best."
After eating a few bites of fried cakes and drinking a sip of tea, Nan Yi's eyes scanned the faces of people entering and leaving the meat processing factory.
"Boss Nan, in fact, all we need to do is make a phone call to the city..."
"There's no need to ask the leader for a word on such a small matter. Besides, the leader can only help us once. We have to solve it ourselves next year... someone is coming." Before Nan Yi finished speaking, he put the fried cake and teacup in his hands on the ground and pounced towards a middle-aged man.
"Director Zhu, Director Zhu, pig for TV."
In the first sentence, Nan Yi threw out the key point.
Hearing Nan Yi's words, Zhu Manyuan stopped and turned back to ask, "Who are you?"
"Hello, I'm Nan Yi from Yaqing Company." Nan Yi grabbed Zhu Manyuan's fat hand that could squeeze out eight ounces of lard and said, "Fifty fat pigs, I'll give you fifty 17-inch TV sets, fifty yuan cheaper than outside."
"What brand?" Zhu Manyuan asked excitedly.
He couldn't help but be tempted. He could give the TV back as a welfare gift or as a favor. At this time, if you want to own a TV, you not only have to solve the problem of being able to afford it, but also the problem of being able to buy it.
Of course, this big problem does not include domestic black and white TV sets...
"Shanghai's Kaige brand is a famous brand, no worse than Peony."
Zhu Manyuan thought for a moment and said, "There are too many pigs and too few televisions."
"Okay, okay, Director Zhu, let's go to your office and talk it over. Cashier He, you wait for me outside." Nan Yi said as he half-pushed and half-pulled Zhu Manyuan towards the gate of the meat processing factory.
Apart from the banknote printing factory, which factory doesn't rely on its own resources to make a living?
The people from the meat processing factory have no worries about food, and the people from the cannery eat so much canned food that they vomit. Yaqing owns a shopping mall, and televisions are worthless to Yaqing. Even if he sells them for fifty-one at a discount, he can still make a profit. As long as he can exchange them for more pork, it doesn't matter if he gives away a few more televisions.
…
Nan Yi had been in there for twenty minutes, and He Ping was waiting eagerly at the entrance of the meat processing factory.
After waiting for another five minutes, she finally saw Nan Yi's voice coming towards the gate from the meat processing factory.
"Boss Nan, what's going on?"
"80 TVs in exchange for 70 200-pound fat pigs. Find a place to make a phone call and tell Chief Qiu to bring people to take the pigs away early tomorrow morning. You can take away 20 first."
"70, so many? Live pigs?"
"What are you thinking? There are a lot of good things that can be picked out of a pig. However, I want two hundred kilograms of pig offal. People in the office can share it when the time comes."
"Boss Nan, my dad likes to eat large intestines. Can I have more?"
"Sure, is ten pounds enough?"
"Enough, enough." He Ping nodded vigorously.
"Haha, let's go and attack the next high ground."
In fact, Nan Yi had some reservations about what He Ping said. Pork was not as easy to exchange as he said. Black and white televisions were rare to the employees of the meat processing plant, but not to Zhu Manyuan, the factory director.
Nan Yi just added a little extra, a Panasonic 21-inch remote control, at half price.
He Ping must not be informed of the matter of the color TV. Nan Yi will not use Ya Qing's money. He will ask someone to bring one back from Tokyo and will never look for one outside.
There is a price difference when looking for it outside, which means the transfer of benefits. Bringing it back from abroad is just a small favor that Nan Yi, who has some resources, does for Zhu Manyuan.
Televisions are not that valuable in Japan, and the half price difference is an objective fact. If Nan Yi manipulates it a little more, it is not impossible to turn the TV into picked-up trash.
Nan Yi and He Ping then went to the catering company that managed the state-owned restaurant and bought Tianfuhao braised pork elbows, Yueshengzhai five-spice braised beef, and Daoxiangcun sausages; the Sugar, Tobacco and Wine Company bought cigarettes and alcohol; the non-staple food company bought vegetables, soy products, fruits, chickens, eggs, and dried fruits; the supply and marketing cooperative bought a few bicycles in preparation for a lottery during the Yaqing Spring Festival Gala.
He then went to two villages in the suburbs and contracted the fish in two ponds, waiting to dry the ponds before the Spring Festival.
Nan Yi prepared the New Year benefits very thoroughly, and prepared all the indispensable but difficult-to-buy items for the employees. After the "maliciously high salaries", he came up with another "maliciously high benefits".
After buying New Year’s goods, Nan Yi went to the staff club of Jinggang.
After the employees who were going to attend the training lined up, he climbed onto the table, looked at everyone, and began to speak.
"I am about the same age as everyone present , and I know very well what everyone hates, so I won't waste any more time and get straight to the point. My name is Nan Yi, the general manager of Yaqing Company. In the past three days, I have visited the food and beverage company, the sugar, tobacco and alcohol company, the non-staple food company, and also went to the countryside.
I have prepared the New Year's goods for everyone. There are some that you can expect, and some that you can't expect.
The best pork, five pounds per person..."
Before Nan Yi finished speaking, the crowd exploded and started whispering to each other.
"Shut up, everyone." Nan Yi yelled, "Don't you know that you can't talk to each other in the ranks? Those who are in charge of military training, come to me after the meeting and tell me what kind of team you are leading."
Nan Yi glanced down angrily for a while, and only continued when everyone quieted down, "Four Tianfuhao braised pork elbows per person, two catties of Yueshengzhai five-spice braised beef per person, two catties of Daoxiangcun sausage, one cigarette ticket, and one wine ticket. Each ticket can be exchanged for two packs of cigarettes and two bottles of wine. The cigarettes are Yuzhou cigarettes, and the wine is Erguotou. Those who don't smoke or drink can also exchange other things with colleagues. You can arrange them freely.
A certain amount of vegetables, a certain amount of soy products, and a certain amount of fruit. There is no regulation on these three items now. It depends on what the grocery store has and how much they have.
One chicken, five pounds of eggs, five pounds of dried fruits, both expensive and cheap, mixed together. In addition, I have rented two fish ponds in the village, and on the 12th of next month, which is the day of the Little New Year, all of you will go fishing. We will have a fishing competition. The more you catch, the higher you will be in the queue when the fish are distributed.
As for the fish, we won't divide them by weight, but by the size. Two fish per person should be enough, so we can take one big fish and one small fish. No matter what kind of fish, we will divide them the same. Those in the front can pick the big ones, and those in the back can just consider themselves unlucky. It's your own fault for not being capable!"
As soon as Nan Yi said this, there were bursts of laughter everywhere in the queue, but this time no one dared to whisper to each other.
"As for this New Year's gift, ask around in the whole city, it is definitely unique to Scorpion Shit. You are getting the highest salary in the whole capital. I believe that when you took your salary back for the first time, your parents must have been so angry that they couldn't sleep all night.
Why?
They have worked hard all their lives, but their salary is not as much as a young bastard who just started working, you..."
Nan Yi stretched out his hand and pointed at everyone, "You trampled on their self-esteem as parents, but at the same time, you have become their pride. It's very impressive to tell others that my son/daughter works at Yaqing and earns .
I believe that every one of you knows how much a young worker earns per month now. You also know very well what a guaranteed salary of 240 yuan per month means, so I will not elaborate on it here.
I want to tell you that if you take the training seriously, in the future, when our Asia Mall officially opens, you will be able to get more salary and your face will become more and more beautiful;
Don't even think about getting by. We at Yaqing don't keep useless people. Listen to me clearly. We at Yaqing are a joint venture company and we have the right to fire you at any time.
If you do a good job, you can earn thousands of dollars a month. If you don't, you can pack up and leave at any time.
I have read the information of all of you. Few of you have parents who are extraordinary. Most of you have parents who are ordinary people. Everyone has difficulties with not having enough money and not having a place to live.
Welfare housing has been put on my work agenda. As long as you can work well, the company will do its best to help you solve your worries, whether it is housing, medical care, weddings and funerals.
Finally, I want to say that you are all Yaqing people now. If you are good, Yaqing will be good; if Yaqing is good, you will be even better! Please be proud of Yaqing, and please be proud of yourself! "
After saying that, Nan Yi bowed deeply to the queue.
Bang!
First it was like the sound of rapid raindrops, then it was like a heavy downpour, and the whole audience burst into thunderous applause.
Nan Yi did not scold the person in charge of military training. He quickly left Shougang and went to the Haidian District Government compound.
"Xiao Nan, I heard that you have run Yaqing Company very well and successfully."
"This is all thanks to the fact that the people sent by the district are all very capable and each department is well managed. Otherwise, how could I have done a good job by myself?"
Playing with the cigarette given to him by Min Jinsheng, Nan Yi said politely.
Except for the first time he came, Min Jinsheng didn't know that he didn't smoke and gave him cigarettes, so he didn't give him cigarettes in the subsequent visits. But he gave him cigarettes again today.
