Chapter 364 Our Factory Doesn't Even Have a Factory Building
In previous years, there were not many people during the first phase of the electrical appliance exhibition. At most, they would come to see the excitement on the first day and purchase some hardware parts. After that, there would be fewer people. Only in the next two phases would there be a lot of people.
But today is different. One hour before the official opening, there is already a group of people queuing outside, and the number of people is increasing.
Cheng Hui got out of the taxi, wearing a white suit, and walked over swayingly, like a white lotus in a pond in summer. Just one look at her makes people feel happy and their whole body tremble.
"It's her! It's her!"
“She’s the one selling the bowls!”
“She also sells the oven!”
Someone remembered her name, reached out and shouted, "MS Cheng! Do you have any orders for the oven today?"
Cheng Hui smiled at him: "A little bit."
When the man heard that there was only "a little", he immediately became anxious: "I want 3... I want 500! Do you have any?"
"Yes, but you have to follow our rules. First come, first served." Cheng Hui said with a smile at the crowd, and under the protection of a group of "bodyguards", she walked through the crowd and entered the employee passage.
Although only four of them could enter, except for two who stayed behind to look after the goods, all the other employees came and watched the goods outside.
Only samples are exhibited in the venue, and large quantities of goods are not allowed to be brought in at one time.
The bowls and ovens she delivered were brought in from outside by the employees one by one.
After entering the meeting room, I was still busy preparing juice, egg tarts, and a thick stack of contracts.
She signed her name first, and all that was left was for someone to place the order by themselves.
Lin Zhou arrived early and waited for her at the booth. When he saw her coming, he quickly said, "Several foreign businessmen who often come here came to me yesterday and hoped that you would open a back door for them and sign several thousand orders with them in advance. They are afraid that they will not be able to grab them."
Cheng Hui immediately asked, "Did you agree to them?"
Lin Zhou said: "Of course I didn't agree. Everything must be done according to the rules. The contract must be signed at the venue. It will be invalid if signed privately. This loophole cannot be opened."
Although I really want to earn foreign exchange, I really can't open this loophole.
If everyone can sign privately, then everyone will try to take advantage of loopholes and no one will actually come to the exhibition.
Many popular products were sold out privately, and other foreign businessmen who came from afar were disappointed and no one came next time.
So we have to let them grab it.
Cheng Hui said: "....You can promise them."
Lin Zhou was stunned, and immediately shook his head and said seriously: "Xiao Cheng, you don't understand, this..."
"What I mean is, you should keep them calm and tell them that if they still haven't grabbed the goods by the end of the exhibition, they can come back to me and I will place an order for them. However, if they want to get the goods on time, they will have to pay more." Cheng Hui said.
Lin Zhou...
He froze, his mind rapidly calculating the pros and cons, wondering if this would work.
The more I think about it, the more feasible it seems!
Ovens are not strategic materials, unlike agricultural products such as soybeans. This year's regulations stipulate that they can only be sold in certain quantities, not even a pound more. After all, our people also need to eat.
But as for ovens, there’s no problem in selling a few more.
Normally, when the extension ends, the products will be removed from the shelves and no more contracts can be signed. However, before the deadline, adding a few orders to foreign merchants doesn’t seem to be a big deal, and it can also earn more money…
"You only have 5,000 units, right? If you place too many orders, we won't be able to produce or ship them out, and we'll have to pay you liquidated damages! Be careful." Lin Zhou said.
Cheng Hui whispered, "President Lin, let me be honest with you. I have more than 100,000 in stock."
Lin Zhou took a breath of cold air.
For all the products on display, in addition to the same products that are normally sold domestically, those that are specifically exported are made into samples every year for the exhibition, and then produced according to orders, and almost no extra ones are produced.
Who is this? He dared to bet more than 100,000 units before even participating in the exhibition. Moreover, he heard that the oven was sold at cost price of US$200, which was not much profit.
"Where did you get so much money? Did your leader approve it?"
Cheng Hui glanced at the group of leaders who came over to inspect and said loudly: "It's on credit. All the enterprises in Harbin are united as one, and those who have money will contribute money, those who have manpower will contribute manpower, and those who have materials will contribute materials.
“Our Huaqiang Electric Factory actually didn’t even have its own factory building, but borrowed a workshop from the Andong Factory, and all the workers were also borrowed from the Andong Factory and the Seventh Machinery Factory.
“We borrowed our initial capital from a food factory.
"We still owe a large amount of material fees to the Andong Factory and the Seventh Machinery Factory, and we also owe a large amount of packaging fees to the paper mill, so if we can earn foreign exchange this time, it will be the joint credit of everyone, not just mine."
Everyone who heard it was stunned.
Is Harbin so united?
Moreover, this young comrade has a very high level of awareness!
She has already sold over one million, and may sell millions more, but she doesn't take any credit for it, nor is she complacent. She even says that the credit belongs to everyone!
Few of the people present have the same awareness as her!
Look at the beautiful and high-end oven next to her, which has sold thousands of units. How could this factory be so "simple"? Don’t even have your own factory?
In the crowd, the expressions of several people changed a little, and their eyes blinked frequently, as if they were thinking about something.
Cheng Hui looked at Qi Anguo who was standing behind the crowd. Qi Anguo also had a look of surprise and thoughtfulness in his eyes.
Cheng Hui smiled, turned away, exchanged a few words with a group of leaders, and then went back to making egg tarts.
The first batch of egg tarts were baked, the venue gate opened, and the crowd poured in. Several people ran to Cheng Hui at the speed of a 100-meter sprint.
Cheng Hui pointed and said, "Those who need ovens come here, and those who need enamel bowls go over there. Tell the staff the quantity, and they will give you the corresponding contract!
"Those who signed the oven contract, come back at 11 o'clock to draw the prize!"
Someone wondered aloud, "Can I enter the lottery by buying a toaster oven?"
"Sure!" Cheng Hui said.
In a word, people who originally didn’t want to buy an oven now want to buy one.
200 yuan is not expensive, but you can participate in the lottery. If you are lucky enough to win a machine, wouldn’t you make a lot of money? If you are lucky enough to win an enamel bowl, that's pretty good too.
What if he is the lucky one?
Besides, this oven is really beautiful.
Cheng Hui rearranged the booth today and took out a few more units and placed them higher, so now you can see them clearly without having to squeeze in front.
This time, anyone passing by could see what she was selling, and they would be unable to walk after looking at it for a few more seconds.
Also, the egg tarts smell so good. The oven must be performing very well to be able to bake such fragrant egg tarts.
The crowd consciously divided into two teams to sign the contract, and each person who signed the contract could take away two egg tarts and a glass of juice.
She was generous today and gave two egg tarts.
The main thing is that these are customers and financial sponsors.
In fact, the two parties can sign with each other. After the person signs the oven contract, Cheng Hui will give him a contract for enamel bowls and ask him whether he wants to sign it.
"It saves you from queuing again," she said with a smile.
With such a sweet smile and such a considerate person, anyone who is recommended by her will at least sign a small order to buy 10 bowls or one or two ovens.
Two hours later, the job was handed over to Lin Zhougan and she went out to feed the baby.
When she came back, Cheng Hui announced that there were only 100 retail quotas left for the oven. The quota she applied for from her leader yesterday had all been sold out. If large merchants wanted to buy it, they would have to wait until she went back tonight to ask her leader whether it was still for sale.
In the crowd, a clerk hurriedly ran in from the door, shouting as he ran: "No! I haven't bought it yet! I just asked our head office for instructions, and our head office said they want all of them! How much stock do you have left? We want them all! No matter how many tens of thousands!"
This guy has an island hairstyle today, but no one doubts his purchasing power and poor English.
