Chapter 131: Bringing Goods

Han Que later heard Gu Ningwei mention this and couldn't help but scold him: "Why did you criticize Li Zhekai? He was just concerned about Zhen Ning as an old shareholder. I've seen you don't treat him like this on a daily basis. How did he offend you?"

Gu Ningwei sneered and said, "He just said that you are not as good as Gao Ye, and he wanted to force Gao Ye on me, asking me to use Gao Ye to replace you. This suggestion offended me, so I just wanted to confront him."

Han was touched by what he said, but he chuckled and tapped his forehead: "Li Zhekai is not entirely wrong. Gao Ye is indeed more experienced than me."

"Come on," Gu Ningwei sneered disdainfully. "How is he any better than you? I didn't have a good impression of him the first time I saw him. He was so greasy, and he had ill intentions towards you, taking advantage of you whenever he could. I didn't want to use someone like him at the time, but he'd just arrived, so it was hard to kick him out right away. That's why I transferred him to a subsidiary under Chengguang. I told Li Zhekai that it was to make room for Jiang Jin, and sure enough, he couldn't stay and resigned. It's better for someone like him to leave sooner rather than later. How could I possibly let him come back?"

Only then did Han understand what Gu Ningwei was thinking at that time.

He then muttered, "Li Zhekai is so clueless. When Zhening was in the most difficult time, he wanted to protect himself and sold all his shares to me. Now he's trying to boss me around. Not only does he boss me around, but he's also telling me I'm no good. Damn it, do you even need him to guide me? He's meddling too much. He's so old, but he doesn't understand the slightest bit."

Han was stunned. Looking at his serious and angry expression, she felt both angry and amused. She poked Gu Ningwei's forehead and said, "You are really protective of your shortcomings. You can't stand hearing someone say anything bad about me. You get angry, regardless of whether what they say is right or not."

"I just protect my wife. If I don't protect her, who will? I'm just like them. I'm servile outside, but I show off to my wife and kids when I get home. I despise people like this the most."

"They? Who are they?" Han asked in confusion.

"That old man of mine is just like that," Gu Ningwei said angrily. "Now that he's a boss and has money, he dares to show off outside. Before he became successful in his business, judging by his attitude towards us and me, he was really a bully. When I was a child, I got angry when I saw him like that. He only knew how to bully me and my mom."

Han sighed and put his arm around his.

No wonder Fang Jiayan said that there is an unhealed child living in everyone’s life, who is still paying for the past even after becoming an adult.

Compared with the rumors that spread very quickly among the people, Zhening Company's handling of the matter seemed very low-key.

When encountering distributors who tried to get information, the sales staff gave a uniform response: "The company is indeed clearing out inventory, but the products are all within the warranty period and the quality is fine. They are just making room for new products. These products were also developed by the R&D department headed by Wang Jianan. He was in charge of R&D and production at the time, so he is the one who knows the product quality best."

"We don't require you to make an advance payment for this batch of products. You can purchase them at any time. If they sell well, you can purchase more. If they don't, you can purchase less or even none at all. It's entirely up to you to decide how much you want to spend. Therefore, no matter what the situation is at our Zhening Company, you have no risk."

All the dealers are profit-driven. After analyzing, they found that this sales strategy has no risk for them, and the purchase cost is low, which is very suitable for price wars in the market. If the products sell well, there will be profits.

So no matter whether there are rumors or not, let’s make back the profits first.

Therefore, the negative news spread by Wang Jianan did not cause any negative impact on Zhening Company.

The only impact was that some dealers were worried that if Zhening Company really collapsed in the future, they would not be able to get such a bargain, so they stocked up a lot of goods at once, which actually increased sales significantly.

Wang Jianan was furious, and Zhu Meimei and others had no choice but to post messages on WeChat Moments, anonymously accusing "certain peers of lacking business ethics and causing vicious competition."

I also lament that the efforts of decent people are not as good as those of people who sell themselves for fame and fortune without any moral bottom line.

It implies that Han Que and Gu Ningwei had a physical transaction.

Yu Xiaoli showed Han Que the screenshots.

Han sneered and said, "We gave them some face, but they still refused to accept it. In this case, let's fulfill their shamelessness."

She called Tong Xin over and said, "I've seen your recording. There's nothing wrong with it. But if I send it out, how much traffic will it get?"

Tong Xin said, "Boss Han, this is no problem. I have a friend at a media company who specializes in streaming. We just need to pay a small fee and have them do the streaming. They're guaranteed to make Wang famous."

Han nodded and said, "Okay, then do as you say."

"Okay, I'll send it right away." Tong Xin turned around to leave. She took a few steps and suddenly turned back.

"Tong Xin..." Han called her.

The two looked at each other, both hesitant to speak.

Han gestured for her to speak first, and Tong Xin said, "Mr. Han, I have a suggestion..."

Han thought about it and said, "Since it's already been released, why don't we take advantage of it?"

Tong Xin's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said excitedly, "Yes, yes, I think so too. My judgment is that Wang Jianan's recording will definitely go viral. As long as it has a catchy headline, I've even thought of a title: 'A senior executive who graduated from a prestigious university is swearing like a shrew on the street. Who is really causing the chaos in business competition? Once this recording goes viral, we'll open an account on various platforms, and Ms. Han, you can just livestream and sell the products. You're so beautiful, and you have great skin, so there's no problem selling the products."

Han smiled slightly and said, "We'll decide when the time comes whether I should personally bring the products, but we should also adopt the e-commerce model, with direct online sales and offline sales at the same time."

"Yes, yes." Tong Xin pulled Han Que and said, "Boss Han, we really should separate some product lines and move them online so that we are not controlled by others."

Han nodded in agreement. She had always had this idea, but because the company has always been selling through dealers, if it goes online, the dealers will worry that their interests will be damaged.

Online sales also have risks such as traffic, high platform fees, and difficulty in collecting payments.

Once online sales are adopted, the degree of dependence on people is reduced, and sales staff will also worry that their interests will be affected. They will lack enthusiasm and will also resist.

So she has been hesitant.

But now is an opportunity. The incident triggered a hot spot, and the traffic was wasted in vain. It is really a pity.

As someone who has been cyberbullied, she has experienced the power of the Internet.

Han Que discussed it with Gu Ningwei, but to his surprise, Gu Ningwei agreed very much. "Go ahead, do it first, and we'll deal with the rest step by step."

"I'm afraid that once this recording is released, people will say something online. That will affect you..."

"What are you afraid of? Water can carry a boat, but it can also capsize it. We just need to use it to our advantage and make good use of it. As long as we don't do anything stupid ourselves, there's nothing to worry about."

After listening to Gu Ningwei's words, Han felt as if she had taken a reassurance pill, and she also felt that she could do a great job.

"By the way, have that girl process the audio and personal information. Don't mention any names, and don't leave any clues that could give Wang Jianan a reason to sue us."

Han nodded, his expression hesitant.

Gu Ningwei didn't ignore the fleeting hesitation in her eyes and reminded her, "If you're not sure, ask Lawyer Wen. His team has experience in these areas, and you can ask him for advice."

Han laughed at him and said, "Lawyer Wen is also your friend. Do you ever ask your friend to do something for you without paying him?"

Gu Ningwei said, "I've already promised him that after Chengguang's transformation, his team will serve as legal advisors. He won't accept any money for such a small matter. This guy is quite cunning."

Han sighed, "Who among those who can get along with you is not cunning and shrewd? You would have sold out any fools long ago..."

Gu Ningwei smiled and pinched her increasingly round chin, "I didn't even sell this stupidest one, and it almost got sold to someone else..."

In order not to affect the overall enthusiasm of the sales team, Han did not let sales staff participate in the construction of the e-commerce platform.

Her subordinates are mainly Yu Xiaoli and Tong Xin.

Yu Xiaoli has always been her assistant. Later, after Han Que was promoted, her position also rose. Now she is the deputy manager of the sales department. In addition to her own customer maintenance and sales performance, she also handles some department management work.

Of course, her salary also improved significantly.

This time, Han transferred her to be in charge of the e-commerce platform. He communicated with her in advance and told her that it might affect her sales performance in the short term, but once the e-commerce platform was successfully running, she would be mainly responsible for this business and asked her if she was willing.

Yu Xiaoli put it bluntly: "Online sales will be the future trend, and the dealer model will be eliminated. I might as well make the transition now."

Han said okay, then let’s open up the wasteland together.

Yu Xiaoli smiled and said, "During this time, I have gained a lot of experience following Sister Han Que, and my ideas are completely different from before."

Han praised her: "You have a strong learning ability."

Yu Xiaoli sighed, "Oh, don't say that. Ever since Mr. Gu came, especially after what happened with Wang Jianan, the company has really changed. Everyone's thinking has changed too."

Han nodded. Gu Ningwei had a great influence on her and even on the team.

Yu Xiaoli is mainly responsible for handling some procedures and product divisions, while Tong Xin is responsible for communication with various platforms and media companies.

It was really busy, with so many things to do that the three of them were so busy that they wished they could grow octopuses.

Gu Ningwei did not allow Han Que to work overtime frequently. He would start urging him if he worked only one hour a day at most.

Han, however, found him annoying and complained to himself behind his back.

Yu Xiaoli and Tong Xin are young, and no matter how busy they are, they always find fun. Supporting Mr. Gu and Han Que as a couple is their fun.

The two of them did not shy away from Han Que and shared any new discoveries in the group.

"Oh, today when I was at work, I saw Mr. Gu helping Sister Han Que with her bag in the elevator."

"What's so strange about carrying a bag? I've seen Mr. Gu helping Sister Han Que carry her lunch box. She brings her own lunch every day now, and Mr. Gu helps her carry the thermos bucket every day."

"Hey, did you see today? When Mr. Gu came to pick up Sister Han Que from get off work, Sister Han Que was impatient and even said a few words to Mr. Gu. Mr. Gu didn't get angry at all and even smiled..."

"Oh, so sweet..."

"Yes, it's so sweet, just like in an idol drama."

"How about we come up with a topic later and have Mr. Gu appear on camera, with the title being "The Daily Life of the Couple at the Zhening Company..."

"Yes, I think it's possible. There is guaranteed to be traffic."

Han looked at the discussions in the group, feeling both amused and helpless. She showed it to Gu Ningwei, "Look at these kids nowadays, what are they thinking about every day? They only care about the little details of your and my life..."

Gu Ningwei took a few glances and praised with a smile: "Well, your observation is quite careful, not bad."

Han was speechless. "No, I have to talk to them. They're getting more and more outrageous. They're even planning our daily lives. Are they going to put our entire lives on the internet, showing off our affection? For everyone to see?"

Gu Ningwei pondered and said, "It's not impossible. As long as it's good for marketing, it's fine. Compared to those fake couples on the Internet, we truly love each other."

Han spat at him, "Showing off affection will lead to a quick death. I don't want that. I'm terrified of the live broadcast I'm about to have to personally attend..."

Gu Ningwei consoled him, "What are you afraid of? The one who should be afraid is Wang Jianan. He has a dirty mouth, so let him eat some more shit."
