Rebirth: It’s Like Flowing Water

Vol 2 Chapter 51: Imaginative team

"Rebirth is like flowing years (

Qi Guodong's very good business style gradually revealed his true qualities, quite like the third brother of the rivers and lakes, and his mouth was awkward.

"Just put your heart in your stomach! Isn't it just the business of more than a hundred stores? I still have a small belly with my own?"

"..."

Li Gang's whole person is not good. What does it mean to have more than one hundred stores?

But, having said that, you really didn't plan to change me? Didn't plan to change me, why did you go so cool that day?

The **** who was stunned for a long time squeezed out an extremely ugly smile, "That's...the brother...think too much?"

Qi Guodong, "I should think too much!"

In fact, Qi Guodong and Qi Lei didn't change Li Gang's ideas from the beginning, and he really couldn't help himself.

Moreover, it is indeed necessary to re-price. However, the uncles and nephews did not intend to bargain to death, too much to compress Li Gang's profit margin.

Purchasing equipment and fitting out are not the same.

As long as the brand model of computer accessories is determined, the price will be compressed no matter how hard it is. Unless it's a fake, the things are there, and the price is not bad.

However, decoration is two different things. The same one hundred square meters, a week-like decoration plan, 20,000 yuan is it, 100,000 yuan is also it, the water inside is too deep.

If you push Li Gang into force and cut corners for you, the inspection will not be able to find it out.

Therefore, the primary purpose of coming today is the actual work and materials, and the price is second. When both parties are profitable, look for a price anchor.

"Brother Li!" Qi Guodong said again, "I will leave the work to you, but we can only say, give you some suggestions."

Li Gang, "Talk about it! This is what it should be."

Qi Guodong, "You may have to expand the decoration team. The one hundred and thirty stores must be completed within two months, the task is a bit heavy!"

Li Gang frowned when he heard it, it was indeed a little tight.

But when he gritted his teeth, "I will find someone tomorrow! Don't worry, I won't delay you."

Qi Guodong, "Then it is the materials. In fact, you can also consider purchasing materials for two hundred or even three hundred Internet cafes in a centralized manner, or even a bidding meeting is enough."

Li Gang nodded. This is indeed a good way to save a lot of material costs.

However, the only problem is that Li Gang has to invest money, and he has to backlog part of the purchase price.

After thinking about it, press it!

Finally said: "Okay, I listen to you!"

When Qi Guodong and Qi Lei listened, they secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

To be honest, they were really afraid that Li Gang didn't have the courage, and they didn't dare to press the material payment, after all, this is the big cost saving.

However, Sanshi really didn't have the funds to do this on his own, so he could only pin his hopes on Li Gang.

Just heard that Li Gang continued: "In this way, I will purchase the materials first, and how much money I save in the end, let's talk about the price. The promise of being a brother will not let you lose, is it okay?"

Qi Guodong was also happy, "Okay!"

Then he said: "There is one more thing. With so many shops decorating together, Brother Li can consider assembly line operations, with dedicated staff."

Li Gang smiled, "You and I want to go together! These days, I have been wondering how to do it for me if more than 100 stores really do it? As before, a decoration team is in charge of an Internet cafe. It won't work."

"Just like you said, the special ceiling for the ceiling, the special wall painting for the wall, the floor, the carpentry, and the door, each have their own division of labor. This way, the efficiency can be improved, and it can save money and effort!"

Next, the two sides finalized some details, and Li Gang even announced, "Tomorrow I will personally take someone to Harbin, the largest Internet cafe, and I will stare at you personally. One month, no! Twenty days, Let your model stand up!"

With Li Gang's words, Qi Guodong and Qi Lei were relieved a lot, and then there was a short chat at home.

During the mention of Coco Li, Li Gang found the opportunity to talk to Qi Lei, "I listened to Coco Coco, the suggestion Stone gave her that he should be admitted to the journalism college?"

"Yes!"

Qi Lei didn't say much before. He came today just to show his courtesy.

Years ago, Coco Lee invited him to come and sit at home. Qi Lei didn't have time at the time, but he also agreed. Today is to pay his wish. For business matters, it is enough for the third uncle to speak up.

When it comes to Coco Coco Lee, he can no longer pretend to be dumb, after all, that's a big deal for other people's children.

Qi Lei told Li Gang the cause and effect again.

Li Gang is very supportive of this. Sister Hanhan has been like a different person in the past six months, and she is naturally happy to be a father.

Moreover, Li Gang also knew that Qi Lei played a big role in the change of Coco Coco Lee.

"I'm not qualified as a dad. If you are free, please persuade her to persuade her, and she will listen to you."

What this said, Qi Lei couldn't pick it up, what about the younger generation?

After visiting Li Gang, Qi Lei and Qi Guodong were ready to go to Harbin to work on the bidding meeting the next day.

And the vent of the storm is also waiting for Qi Lei in Harbin.

That night, Qi Lei made a few phone calls, and simply talked to his close friends. The main thing is, don't look for me these few days, leave tomorrow, and then come back to start school.

The next day, Qi Guodong drove the car and drove Qi Lei, Zhao Wei, and Zhao Na to Harbin again. Li Gang and his decoration team went alone.

I didn't bring Xu Qian this time. She hasn't lifted the foot restraint yet, and she is complaining at home!

When Qi Lei called last night, he was very respectful and did not dare to say anything out of the ordinary.

Is the old mother-in-law so insidious and eavesdropping?

It's just as authentic as Xu Qian's polite and official rhetoric.

Then, he hung up the phone carefully.

Xu Qian was speechless, so she seemed to have changed herself? Suddenly became serious.

Upstairs, Zhang Nan and Xu Wenliang's bedroom.

When Zhang Nan came out of the bathroom, he saw Xu Wenliang holding a phone and his face was refreshed.

"What's wrong? What's so happy?"

"Huh?" Xu Wenliang then remembered to hang up the phone, "It's okay, just happy."

Zhang Nan couldn't be happy. Xu Wenliang saw him and knew why she was upset. He smiled and said, "Take your heart to your stomach, that kid won't be messy!"

"Huh?" Zhang Nan puzzled, "How do you know?"

Xu Wenliang: "This... guessed it."

"..."

Xu Wenliang deliberately changed the subject, "By the way, the work at the school is not very easy to carry out, right? I think you are not answering the phone less frequently during the Chinese New Year. What's wrong? Is something wrong?"

When Zhang Nan heard this, he found a way to complain, rubbing his eyebrows, "Oh, it's not something that happened in the first year of high school! They are all looking for various relationships and want to put the child into class 14."

Xu Wenliang raised his eyebrows, "Why is this poor student class turned into sweet pastry?"

Isn't it sweet pastry?

From the bottom to the bottom of the school year, work to the bottom of the tenth. There were three out of five five years ago, and the bottom one was in the top 900. The fourteenth class said it was a hit and it was not an exaggeration.

In addition, with the same teacher configuration as the top class, some parents naturally think that their stupid son can also improve by going to class 14.

Xu Wenliang asked: "Then what are you going to do?"

Zhang Nan, "No one is allowed in!"

"Are you afraid of offending people?"

Zhang Nan, "I am a secretary's wife, what are you afraid of?"

With a long sigh, "The main reason is that the current grades of Class 14 are not enough. If you rush a few more, it will be fine, and you can't make them messy."

———

The main reason why Qi Lei went to Harbin on the third day of the Lunar New Year was because Zhou Tao couldn't help it.

When I arrived at the company, everyone was dumbfounded as soon as I walked in. It was only on the third day of the Lunar New Year. How come so many people came?

I saw Zhou Tao couldn't stop being so busy. Liu Yuan, Zhang Li, and Feng Qiang returned to the company yesterday.

Only had a New Year's Eve dinner at home, and returned after the first day of the new year.

Now, upstairs and downstairs are all people.

Downstairs are agents from various places, and upstairs is the supervision team of the owners' association organized by Uncle Geng.

Well, it doesn't matter if Uncle Geng supervises or does not supervise him, he mainly has to stare here, staring at which is the headquarters of Imagination.

It's just that I haven't shown up yet!

Let Qi Guodong and Zhao Wei support him downstairs, and Qi Lei went upstairs to find Old Geng.

The meeting is just one sentence, "How? How much is the reserve price?"

Old Geng Yile, "No nonsense, the I or M from Liao Province downstairs is pretty reliable. 5600 is almost the same."

"There is a parts supplier in Beijing. I think it's okay to do import and export. It's a bit more expensive, 5750... But he is all imported parts, and he is responsible for assembling them for us and sending special personnel to debug."

This group of suppliers nestled in Sanshi Company every day, with the intention to set the price of Sanshi.

As a result, no one thought that an old man who wears a military coat, like a big master, is the most refined.

I don't know the price of Three Stone's bidding, but what their reserve price is, there is no secret when Uncle Geng goes up and chats for a few words.

What's more, this old man never asks how much you bid.

Chatting and chatting, "I think that agent is pretty reliable, so I'll do it at 5800."

When they heard it, there was no air leak, but the expressions were all betrayed.

Uncle Geng knew it at a glance. After he returned, he asked the owner who specializes in notebooks to write down, "This is not good. 5800 is scared. How expensive is it?"

That's it, no one knows what the uncle janitor is doing, chat with this one, chat with that one, the whole thing let Uncle Geng talk thoroughly.

"Wei Guangming didn't come?"

Qi Lei asked, he still cares more about Wei Guangming and Imagine the reaction there.

I saw Uncle Geng shaking his head, "The fat guy, haven't looked at the figure yet!"

This made Qi Lei a little surprised, but the point was that there was no movement there.

This is not because they can guess what's going on by using their brains.

To be honest, Qi Lei was a little anxious.

Uncle Geng said, "Stay steady! It's the icing on the cake. If we didn't come, these agents will be enough for us. What are you afraid of?"

Qi Lei nodded, the uncle is still the uncle, see clearly.

In fact, Qi Lei didn't know that Wei Guangming was really not in a hurry. Imagine that the headquarters did not call him these days. It is estimated that he was not interested in the fake offer.

Therefore, he did not rush to find Sanshi in a hurry.

Wait, wait until the end of the New Year!

After all, he is an agent of Imagination, and he has a certain advantage in the domestic computer market at least in terms of price.

As for the Imagination headquarters, he was much more sober than Wei Guangming.

In the current computer market, price advantage cannot actually determine everything.

For example, the current most advanced Pentium 2 CPUs and Celeron 2 CPUs, if you look at the price alone, then Celeron definitely has an advantage.

However, the actual situation is that Celeron can't sell Pentium, and it is not as good as Pentium in performance and stability.

The same is true for other computer accessories. In terms of graphics cards, MSI and GALAXY, as well as the domestic OEM Colorful, Baodao Asus, have different performance and quality.

Not only the price and performance of a single accessory are different, but the compatibility of each accessory including the main board, power supply, and network card is also a big problem.

Combined together, can you give full play to the best condition of the accessories? This is a technical job.

Although the three-stone company gave the configuration list, it is a series of performance machines that Zhao Na and her classmates chose according to their technical level.

The level is very high, very professional, suitable for users with different needs.

However, in any case, no matter how powerful Zhao Na and others are in assembling computers, they dare not say that they are No. 1 in the world. There are many masters in the computer industry.

If this is not the case, future generations will not have so many studios and sub-brands that rely on DIY to support themselves.

The "King of Machines" of all ages is not enough to put together the best accessories.

At this time, the major agents gathered in Harbin so early, in fact, for this reason.

No one can guarantee that Sanshi’s configuration list is the final purchase order, and even some agents have brought Zanji masters.

Not only do they have to compete for bids, they also want to use technology to promote their own Zhanji plan to Sanshi.

The team from Imagine headquarters knew this well, so they were not in a hurry to get in touch with Three Stones immediately.

Moreover, their technical team is not comparable to the wild ways of these agents.

Therefore, there is no rush to contact Sanshi Company, wait and see.

At this time, Qi Lei, who had just arrived in Harbin, felt the pressure from experts in his field, and there were more than a dozen recommended configuration schemes.

"It's up to Zhao Na. If it doesn't work, invite Zhang Jian and the others back in advance."

In this regard, Qi Lei is not very helpful. Invisibly, the technical difficulty of the bidding meeting has also been upgraded.

"It can only be said that you may not choose the cheapest one, but you must choose the most suitable and compatible configuration scheme."

This was for Uncle Geng and the owners' association, and everyone nodded.

It has to be said that Three Stones has achieved its position in terms of transparent transactions.

Now Sanshi is also on the same front with the owners. Uncle Geng gave Qi Lei some relief pills, "Don't worry, we can trust you!"

It's just that if there was no such sentence, it would be better if Uncle Geng said that, Qi Lei's pressure was even greater.

It's really just that you can't have a little problem, otherwise it will be troublesome.

———

The time for the bidding meeting is February 26.

On the 20th, which is the fifth day of the Lunar New Year, with the joint efforts of Zhao Na, Zhang Jian and others, and among the many suggestions of various agents, Three Stones finally fine-tuned the configuration plan and gave it to Each agent issued the final procurement plan.

This time, he still didn't send fat to Wei Fatty.

That is, in the afternoon of the fifth day of the fifth day, in a four-star hotel in Harbin, the bidding team of Imagine received the latest configuration order from the headquarters.

Wang Chen, the PC sales director in charge of the Greater China region, and the chief engineer and deputy chief engineer sent from the headquarters are speechless.

"What the **** is this Wei Guangming doing!?"

Wang Chen glanced at an old man next to him without a trace, smiled bitterly in his heart, what did he think, why did he send this old man here?

Finally, I called Wei Guangming.

But this time, he kept a mind-set, and did not disclose the latest purchase order of Sanshi Company to Wei Guangming, but just pretended to be concerned about the progress of Xia Wei Guangming.

At this moment, Fatty Wei is playing mahjong with his friends at home!

I answered the phone and said, "Tomorrow... Sanshi Company will not start the after-holiday work tomorrow. Please rest assured that the headquarters, I will go to Sanshi Company to negotiate early tomorrow morning."

After listening, Wang Chen was completely disappointed with Fatty Wei.

I immediately called the headquarters and said, "Tomorrow I will send a lawyer's letter to the general agent of Longjiang to terminate the agency contract and be held accountable for forging the user configuration sheet. Change the agent!"

Hanging up the phone, Wang Chen sorted out his mood, and respectfully handed the configuration sheet faxed from the headquarters to the old man beside him.

"Nangong, you always take a look, what should I do with this list?"

The old man is named Nan Guanghong, a leader in domestic computer technology at UU Reading www.uukahnshu.com, and the chief engineer of Imagine Group.

It's a pity that Wang Chen doesn't want this technical master to appear in his bidding team.

Because, the chief engineer and the group's decision-makers have been having trouble for the past two years.

Disagreements are not new. They are a problem that many technology industry companies cannot avoid.

That is, whether it focuses on technology or marketing.

After all, Lao Nan is engaged in technology, and advocates that the company should focus on technology and use technological leadership to transform it into market advantage.

But the decision-making level is another arrogance. The company has to survive and stand firm before it can talk about other things.

How can it be so easy for a Chinese company to enter the international market of the computer industry? Do business first, then talk about technology, and it’s okay to not even talk about technology!

This is the dispute between technology, industry and trade and trade, industry and technology. It is a matter of whether the technical department or the marketing department has the right to speak, and which one is more prioritized.

It's not just imagination, it's a problem that many domestic and foreign companies can't avoid.

The most famous is the later generations of Apple, the Apple of Joe’s gang’s emphasis on technology, so the Apple of that era astounded the world.

However, Cook’s Apple re-markets, so the Apples of his time were old-fashioned, but their performance was the only one in the world.

Jobs famously said that when a company's leadership position is occupied by the marketing department, technological innovation will inevitably stagnate.

Between the two, there is an irreconcilable contradiction.

One is making money, and what he wants is profit. And what one is spending money to make is not necessarily profitable.

Ordinary people can't understand the romance of a man of science and engineering.

Moreover, Imagine's grand strategic goal is nothing technical at all.

This is an old man who is about to be kicked out, but he doesn't know what he is doing in Longjiang.
