Make A Billion In The 80s - Chatper 128

“Koizumi, tell me the truth too.” Wang Juan lowered her voice. After listening to his long speech just now, she no longer had the slightest intention to treat him like a child. Do you want to do this business? To tell you the truth, I want to ask my brother to try it too.”

Next to him, Zhao Decheng pricked up his ears, and his mind suddenly became lively. Oh, what Wang Juan said is interesting!

In Qiu Mingqing’s heart, Feng Rui’s voice suddenly sounded: “Just say you can do it, and tell that Zhao Decheng, he is watching!”

Qiu Mingquan was taken aback, and replied solemnly: “Why don’t you do such an easy-to-make money business? Aunt Wang, to tell you the truth, I have made nearly a thousand yuan in the past few days, and I am making money lying down.”

Wang Juan exclaimed: “Oh, it’s more than half a year’s salary for me!”

Zhao Decheng’s small eyes lit up for a moment. After thinking for a while, he quietly ran outside.

Going around to the second floor, he mysteriously pulled out the salesperson’s wife who worked in the women’s clothing department: “Hey, how much money does our family still have?”

His wife rolled her eyes: “What are you doing?”

“Hurry up, I have a way to make a fortune, take it all out! This time, our family can make a lot of money!”

Seeing Zhao Decheng’s back disappear, Qiu Mingquan showed an embarrassed expression again: “Aunt Wang, I thought about it just now, and I should not buy it. This small business will really fall into the hands of the next wave.” gone.”

“Oh?” Wang Juan was stunned for a moment, feeling a little suspicious in her heart. This child, don’t be afraid that she will come to compete too, right?

“Auntie, think about it. The Hero Gold Pen Factory has put so much effort into advertising, and the effect is surprisingly good, but why can’t the supply keep up?”

Without waiting for Wang Juan to answer, he logically said: “Because they didn’t expect the advertising effect to be so good in advance, and they didn’t dare to expand the production line on a large scale. Now the agents all over the country are desperately rushing for goods, and their production lines will expand immediately, and the production capacity will increase.” It’s definitely not an issue anymore.”

In fact, as far as Feng Rui knew, it was during this period that the Hero Golden Pen Factory fought a very good performance battle. Not only did the domestic sales blow out, but it also went abroad, and the foreign exchange earnings from exports increased year by year. Over 10 million US dollars of foreign exchange earned through export, exported to more than 60 countries!

In the following few years, this domestic pen brand has been sold on the same stage as Parker, Montblanc and other world-renowned pens on the stationery counters all over the world, creating the most glorious period in its history. Can’t keep up?

Wang Juan listened blankly, looking at the clear and honest eyes of the child in front of her, she suddenly became excited.

Yes, such a great situation, considering the overwhelming advertisements, the leadership of this manufacturer is definitely not a mediocre person!

“Xiaoquan, thank you.” She couldn’t help feeling chills down her back.

These days, seeing Qiu Mingquan earn so much money smoothly and easily, she almost lost her head, and wanted to put all her eggs in one basket, and even borrow some money for a big one!

If it really rushed in, it would be strange if it didn’t all fall into the hands!

Holding the final payment after the gold pen was completely out of his hands, Qiu Mingquan only felt his heart beating again.

In the big schoolbag, he stacked all the ten-yuan bills neatly together, and among the remaining loose notes, there were a lot of coins, which made the schoolbag heavy.

The 80 yuan he initially stole has turned into a terrifying 2,400 yuan after the 45% compound interest growth these days!

“It would be great if there were hundred-yuan bills. With so much money, more than twenty bills are enough.” He sighed.

Feng Rui asked: “When do you think there are hundred dollar bills?”

Seeing Qiu Mingquan stunned, he proudly flaunted: “It’s almost there. In May 1988, that is, a few months later, a few parents of the Central Bank no longer doubted that in this era of shortage of supplies, these things are only available in state-owned universities.” If the factory can make it, I want to buy fake products, but there is no place to buy them.

“Then, how do you sell this money?”

“Not expensive…” Qiu Mingquan said according to the words Feng Rui made up for him, “This kind of high-end gold carving national gift pen is very high-end, and it is very face-saving as a gift or for personal use. It is 28 yuan a piece. The Hero 100 Gold Pen is the most well-received and the most cost-effective, at 8.8 yuan.”

Mr. Feng, isn’t your price a bit sleazy, and the price has been increased by 30 to 40%?

Can this be sold? You must know that people in this era are living on tight wages, and their lives are not rich!

Sure enough, a middle-aged woman immediately yelled: “Oh, it’s so expensive! You are so young and unscrupulous, you must have added a lot of price!”

“Auntie, I’m not going to hide it from you, I just make some money for running errands.” Qiu Mingquan said eagerly.

“It’s quite far from the city. You have to go back and forth to get a bus ticket. If you can’t make it all morning, you have to have a meal outside. Also, you have to ask for leave to buy this, and your salary will be deducted.”

“I can’t go on weekends, why are you in such a hurry.” The woman curled her lips meanly.

Qiu Mingquan smiled, and looked at her sincerely with deer-like eyes: “I’m going today, and I only have these last few left. If you go on Sunday, I’m afraid you won’t be able to buy them.”

This is extremely baseless, he is simply a profiteer full of lies, but Feng Rui sneered in his heart: “This is not a lie, just say it.”

Feng Rui remembered very clearly that the advertisement for the hero fountain pen was quite big back then, and the radio and newspapers went into battle at the same time. Not long after, the hero fountain pens in major shopping malls in Dongshen City were out of stock on a large scale.

The children of many families are proud of having a valuable high-end hero gold pen. Even Feng Rui’s mother once went late and failed to buy it. It happened that some foreign relatives returned to China, so they brought two pens from the counter in Hong Kong at that time. Give him a gold pen.

There are more and more parents around, and the advertisements on TV at this time are far from being as indiscriminate as later generations. The round of intensive advertisements for Hero Pen left a deep impression on many people.

But after looking at it, some people also picked it up and looked around, but no one paid for it.

The middle-aged woman rolled her eyes and sneered: “You kid, you are doing speculative things! This time and again, the price will increase when you change hands. I think you are more courageous than a thief. Believe it or not, the police can arrest you! ”

Qiu Mingquan looked at her with dark eyes, without saying a word.

It was the middle-aged man who spoke, with a gentle voice: “That’s not what you said, big sister. ‘Let some people get rich first’ is what Comrade Xiaoping said three years ago. Invigorating the economy and circulation is a good thing, not a crime.”

His tone was calm, but powerful, and he looked like a knowledgeable and cultural person. When he said that, the middle-aged woman was awkward, so she stopped talking.

It wasn’t until a crisp bell rang that all the parents hurried away and rushed to their children’s classrooms to start the parent-teacher meeting time.

Qiu Mingquan stared blankly at the empty school gate, and asked in a low voice in his heart, “Why don’t we lower the price when they adjourn later?”

“Don’t drop a penny.” Feng Rui said coldly, “Are you questioning my pricing strategy and business decision?”

Qiu Mingquan felt distressed: he still had a decisive strategy. If he didn’t know, he thought it was a multi-million dollar business.

It’s over, I’m afraid these pens will be completely smashed in my hands!

President Feng’s voice became even colder: “A few million are nothing. The contracts I signed before were worth hundreds of millions. Besides, pricing decisions have nothing to do with tens of dollars or tens of millions. In the end, What affects the result is nothing more than the human heart. Do you understand?”

I don’t understand… Qiu Mingquan answered silently in his heart.

“It’s right if you don’t understand.” Feng Rui was about to say venomously, “So you can only work at a construction site”, but for some reason, he paused and proudly changed his words, “If you don’t understand, you have to learn, you know?” ?”

When he raised his head again, the deep eyes were cold, compared with the warm and pure eyes just now, it seemed to be a different person.

“Someone taught me.” The half-grown child slowly looked around at the shopping mall staff and some curious customers. The voice was not loud, but it was very clear, “Grandpa Deng.”

“Grandpa Deng? Are you an adult?” The security chief didn’t wake up.

Qiu Mingquan pointed to the north leisurely: “Grandpa Xiaoping said it!”

He frowned on the ground and looked at Zhao Decheng with contempt: “You can’t do this, you don’t care about national affairs. Grandpa Deng said three years ago that poverty is not socialism. I don’t steal or rob. I use labor and What’s wrong with being wise and getting rich?”

The people around are all stunned, this kid, isn’t he too powerful?

Zhao Decheng blushed: “Comrade Xiaoping told us to work hard to get rich, you call it getting something for nothing! Yes, reselling it after changing hands, this is not getting something for nothing, what is it?!”

Qiu Mingquan looked at him with a cold and disdainful look.

“You are so big, how can you talk nonsense?” He sighed, the tone of a child is especially lethal, “I will analyze your shipments, investigate the needs of nearby schools, and take turns in several shopping malls Observe, I just ate a steamed bun and didn’t drink a sip of water, how can I say that I get something for nothing?”

The surrounding crowd: “…”

Convinced of this!

Wang Juan was surprised and soft-hearted when she heard it at the counter, and handed out her cup through the glass counter: “Come on, kid, drink some water.”

Qiu Mingquan ran over and took it gratefully, “Gududu” was not polite, and drank most of the glass.

“Thank you, Auntie.” President Feng, who occupied Qiu Mingquan’s body, put away his sharpness, with tears in his wet eyes, “You are better than my mother.”

Wang Juan gave a “puchi” smile: “Then what about your mother? Why didn’t she follow you and asked you to come alone.”

Qiu Mingquan’s eye circles turned red instantly: “…my mother died a long time ago.”

In the corner of consciousness, the real Qiu Mingquan’s head was full of black lines: “Hey, Mr. Feng, is the show over? I was abandoned, so my parents should still be alive?”

“Those who abandon children, treat them as dead if they are alive!” Feng Rui was categorical.

“…”

Wang Juan is an old salesperson in the stationery group. Zhao Decheng was promoted by relying on his family’s cousin relationship. She was not convinced by him at first. Now that she saw Qiu Mingquan’s pitiful appearance, her mother’s heart was so soft that she was in a mess, so she immediately helped him. .

“Section Chief Li, I think what this little doll said is quite right.” She slowly nodded her red nails painted with impatiens juice, “This is a shopping mall for the people, why don’t you let people’s children in? You say right?”

There were crowds of onlookers all around booing, and they all thought it was fun: “Yes, yes, I think this kid is right!”

“Wang Juan! I’m warning you, don’t collude with criminals!” Zhao Decheng pointed at Wang Juan with a fierce look in his eyes, “This month’s prize of ten yuan, do you still want it?”

Suddenly, a voice came from behind the crowd coldly, with majesty.

“Who is so good that you don’t give a single word of the evaluation? Is this how the evaluation of your stationery group is done?”

Zhao Decheng and Wang Juan were all taken aback when they saw who was coming. Isn’t the man who came out of the crowd the newly promoted General Manager Qu?

Manager Qu is young and strong. He graduated from a college of finance and economics with a bachelor’s degree. He is one of the young cadres who have been promoted on the commercial front.

Today, he is accompanying his old classmates to inspect and visit each floor, and he has been quietly listening outside for a while.

At first, he still held back his anger, until he heard Zhao Decheng’s threat, he was really angry. ——It is said that the old state-owned enterprises have a chaotic style and no rules and regulations to follow. Sure enough, I saw it with my own eyes today!

Manager Qu broke through the crowd and walked in, staring at Zhao Decheng coldly: “The leader of the stationery team, isn’t he, he’s so majestic and powerful.”

In the midst of winter, Zhao Decheng was almost sweating.

This is the general manager who just took office, and I heard that the higher-ups value him very much. There are three fires when a new official takes office, who knows where the fire will burn? …

Qu Yifei turned his head, and said kindly to Qiu Mingquan: “My little friend, if the mall really doesn’t sell you pens here, what will you do?”

The child in front of him looked at him with dark eyes: “You won’t.”

“Oh why?”

“Are you the big leader of the mall?” The real CEO Feng observed him with a naive and cunning expression, but the words he said were earth-shattering.

“First, you didn’t expressly say that you are not allowed to trade in your shopping mall, even if the police station asks, you won’t support it; second, as long as you are willing to fight and suffer without endangering the national economy and people’s livelihood, you can It’s not a mistake, on the contrary, it’s a necessary lubricant for the market.”

Wang Juan at the counter listened and spewed water out of the enamel cup.

–Ouch!

What are they talking about? It’s even better than what the big leaders of their shopping malls said at the New Year’s Day mobilization meeting!

Manager Qu opened his mouth slightly in shock, um… how old is this kid? Is it a thousand-year-old monster who has cultivated to become a master, or is it a family history?

With such a bunch of words, even calling him a graduate of the University of Finance and Economics can’t fault him!

After a long pause, he smiled.

He bent down himself, picked up all the pencil cases that had fallen on the floor, and put them in Qiu Mingquan’s schoolbag.

“Little friend, what you said is very good.” He turned his head and looked at Zhao Decheng calmly. “As long as they are customers of our commercial building, we will welcome them. I told you a long time ago that ‘serving the people’ is not a sentence.” Empty words, like you, don’t listen to the news, don’t learn the new spirit. Sooner or later, you will be eliminated by the times!”

Zhao Decheng’s face was flushed red, his calves were weak, but he didn’t dare to answer a word.

Qu Yifei looked at the two people in the security department again, with the same serious expression on his face: “As a comrade in the security department, he should know a little more about the law. This kid did nothing wrong. On the contrary, he bought something from this commercial building. In this shopping mall, you are more obliged to protect him, a small customer.”

Section Chief Li blushed: “General manager, I, we understand. I will definitely study hard next time!”

Manager Qu looked at Zhao Decheng, thinking that just now he and his old classmate had sworn to do a good job in management, and felt even more ashamed: “Such a young child knows to observe out of stock, as the leader of the stationery team, if you Be careful, shouldn’t you apply for the purchase earlier?”

Wang Juan stabbed without losing the opportunity: “We reported to the superior a few days ago that the Hero Gold Pen was selling well, and the team leader said we don’t need to take care of it.”

This Zhao Decheng, relying on his family’s relationship with the old leader, doesn’t respect them, the old front-line employees, Wang Juan has long been upset with him!

Manager Qu glared at Zhao Decheng again angrily: “For such a responsible salesperson, the award bonus is not allowed to be less than a penny. If you can’t do a good job, you will step down and make way!”

Zhao Decheng bowed his waist: “The leadership education is right! I know, I will definitely study hard!”

Qu Yifei smiled and patted Qiu Mingquan’s head again: “Little friend, don’t worry here, our boutique mall welcomes all customers, and you are welcome too!”

Parting the crowd, he walked towards his old classmate who was standing far away.

Behind him, Qiu Mingquan didn’t see Wei Qingyuan, and started to yell calmly again: “Uncles and aunts, take a look at these gold pens. Guaranteed to be genuine!…”

Zhao Decheng watched Manager Qu leave, feeling so angry that he was about to explode.

He picked up the landline in the counter and dialed the internal number: “Hello, Supply and Marketing Department? I’m the stationery counter! How’s the purchase of Hero gold pens? … What, all the goods will arrive in a week? Good!” ,That’s good!”

Throwing down the phone, he sneered, and squinted at Qiu Mingquan viciously: “Pay these peddlers to death!”

At this moment, several salespersons in the cabinet team were moved.

Dongshen City has always been the pioneer of the country’s economic trends and open-mindedness. The sensitivity to making money and wealth is the innate ability of many people in Dongshen City. Common people who lack vivid minds.
