According to reports, this story begins at an entirely unscientific moment: Zhou Ziye, a designer who rose from creating counterfeit mobile phones, suddenly time-traveled back to the year 1984.
...He obeys orders but not official pronouncements. What can you do to him? Does he have any administrative jurisdiction? Even if he does, it's still under the jurisdiction of the town.
In any case, they can't remove Xing Baohua as factory director, nor can they find anyone else to fill the position.
Xing Baohua, Xiao Bomei, his cousin, Guo Kai, and others were all busy with the distributor conference.
He shuttled between the city hotel and the factory. To improve work efficiency, Xing Baohua also used the rickshaw he had bought as a public vehicle.
Anyone who has an urgent matter to attend to can ride it out.
Brochures, agency fee explanations, supply system explanations, return system explanations, and so on kept Xing Baohua extremely busy.
Previously, Xing Baohua had prepared an instruction manual for the agency fee, and he also prepared an instruction manual for supply and returns.
Xing Baohua is relatively satisfied with the quality of his own products.
Basically, there are no problems.
Regarding returns, the product's three guarantees (repair, replacement, and refund) will be clearly stated.
Purchases can be returned or exchanged without reason within one week.
Below is a line of small print that requires close visual inspection to read. It states: Returns or exchanges are permitted without reason, provided the outer packaging is undamaged and the item is in a condition suitable for resale.
Although there are some pitfalls mentioned, knowing them will help you take better care of your items. The factory's packaging costs are also included in their expenses.
The second clause states that if quality issues arise within 30 days, the product will be replaced, not refunded.
The third clause states that if quality issues arise within one year, the product must be returned to the factory for repair.
Xing Baohua currently lacks the funds to expand his team or even set up an after-sales service center.
They can only rely on agents to accumulate goods and deliver them to the factory when they need them.
Exchange or repair products.
Supply system?
Let's build it when we have the money!
Currently, only distributors can bring cash to the factory to pick up the goods.
There's no such thing as logistics these days! It's all about county and city transportation companies.
Xing Baohua didn't know anyone at the transportation company, so he could only let the local agent figure it out himself.
What if you can't find a transport fleet? What can you do? Just wait for cross-regional shipments; there will always be nearby agents to fill those market gaps.
About a week later, agents started arriving one after another and registered to receive free injections into the city hotel.
The city hotel has a total of more than 200 rooms, all of which are standard double or triple rooms except for the deluxe business suites.
All standard rooms can accommodate more than 600 people.
Moreover, some people didn't come alone; they brought two or three companions.
In a city, there might not be one or two agents, but in first-tier cities, there are more than a dozen.
With nearly two thousand people, the city hotels are full.
Fortunately, the city hotels helped to divert the crowds in advance, and all the surrounding guesthouses were also full.
People from the municipal government office came to help again. There was no other way; Xing Baohua was making too much of a fuss, and too many people were coming.
We originally planned to hold the meeting in the city hotel conference hall. Now that's not possible. Even the city auditorium might not be able to accommodate this many people.
I don't know who came up with the idea, but why not hold it in a stadium? It's spacious there; the surrounding stands alone can seat 20,000 people. Adding the space inside the stadium, it could easily accommodate 10,000 people.
The municipal government office shared its opinion with Xing Baohua, who then thought for a moment and asked if there was a basketball court available.
It should be able to seat two or three thousand people without any problem!
There really aren't any in the city; the only indoor stadiums available only seat around seven or eight hundred people.
We could only choose an outdoor stadium, so we arranged everything inside the venue. There were plenty of speakers, so we put in a couple more.
Notify Xu Shuai to bring people to install it.
Director Jiang from the Municipal Government Office approached Xing Baohua and said, "If you have any big plans next time, please let us know in advance. We need to be prepared and try our best to help you with the arrangements!"
"I'm sorry, this was my mistake. My intention was to avoid causing trouble for the government if possible," Xing Baohua said.
"Is there anything else after this?" Director Jiang asked.
"What do you mean?" Xing Baohua asked in return.
"What do you mean, a group of foreigners coming here? You're talking about your so-called agents! You should know their size, right?"
"I really didn't count. This time, the distributors were a real surprise. I thought it would be good if a hundred or so people came, but who knew so many would come? There were more than a dozen families from big cities like Nandu and Shanghai, and each family brought three to five people. So, there were quite a lot of people."
Xing Baohua was also helpless; he hadn't anticipated that advertising would be so powerful, exceeding all his expectations.
"The leaders are all watching you, so you can't be careless! If you succeed here, it will be a great asset to the private enterprise, and the leaders will be proud of you when they go out," Director Jiang instructed.
"Okay, I won't embarrass the leader. If you don't have anything else to do, I'll go take care of something else." Xing Baohua really didn't want to deal with this person, but he had no choice but to keep in touch.
Although Liu Haibo later inquired about a lot of information for him, especially mentioning that Ericsson had sabotaged him behind the scenes some time ago, it was Jiang's doing.
Since the other party was of such a high rank, Xing Baohua could do nothing but find opportunities to sabotage him behind his back.
