Chapter 153 Leather Factory Wang He
Being young has its advantages, but it also has its disadvantages.
After all, Zeng Wenjie was only eighteen years old. If he said he wanted to do business, he would definitely be looked down upon or treated perfunctorily.
So, he brought Feng Xiao out of the store today and asked her to play the role of female president and go to discuss some business with the leather factory.
An Audi A8 was a top-tier luxury car in that era. When it entered the leather factory, the guard quickly lifted the barrier and let it through without asking any questions.
After Zeng Wenjie parked the car, he got out and walked quickly to the back seat and opened the door for Feng Xiao.
Feng Xiao has already entered the state. There is a hint of nobility and a little arrogance in her beautiful eyes, and she has the temperament of a young lady.
On the way here, Zeng Wenjie had already discussed the matters with Feng Xiao.
Feng Xiao understood it after listening to it once. He felt that this task was a bit too simple. It was just to use the aura of the president of an international brand company to lower the other party's price!
"It seems that being young is not all good. I, the 'broken girl', have to play the boss and help you negotiate business." Feng Xiao said in a low voice with a smile.
"There's no way. Some of the conditions are quite harsh, and most factories won't agree to them! What's more, I'm still so young." Zeng Wenjie said helplessly.
An Audi A8 pulled up, which couldn't fail to attract attention. Immediately, a man who looked like a leader came up to inquire about the situation.
Zeng Wenjie introduced: "This is our General Manager Feng. She wants to meet the factory director to discuss business cooperation."
Feng Xiao raised her fair and delicate chin and nodded slowly.
The man immediately turned around and ran to find the factory manager, running very fast. He thought that judging from the other party's attitude, he must be doing quite a big business.
There is a reason why Zeng Wenjie chose this leather factory named "Phoenix".
The leather goods produced by this leather factory were of high quality, but due to poor management it closed down in mid-2007 and was demolished at the end of the year. After that, a real estate development was built here.
When the leather factory closed down, there was a sale and Zeng Wenjie bought some. He wore them for several years without getting worn out. They were comfortable, durable and well made.
Zeng Wenjie planned to choose them as Marlennia's OEM factory, specializing in the production of high heels. After all, this thing does not require much technical content.
The factory director was called Wang He, which reminded Zeng Wenjie of Huang He who had run away with his sister-in-law.
"Hello, Mr. Feng. I'm Wang He, the owner of Phoenix Leather Factory. Nice to meet you!" Wang He is in his forties, with a weathered face, and looks seven or eight years older than his actual age.
Feng Xiao shook hands with her fingertips and said, "I'm Elena, President of the Greater China region of the Italian brand company Marlenia. My Chinese name is Feng Xiao. Nice to meet you."
When Wang He heard the foreign name, he felt it was high-end and classy. He had never heard of the Greater China region before, and it felt so cool.
"This is my assistant, Zeng Wenjie." Feng Xiao pointed at Zeng Wenjie beside him and said.
"Hello, Mr. Wang!" Zeng Wenjie smiled and shook hands with Wang He, opened the cigarette box and handed him a cigarette.
Wang He said, "Please come to my office and sit down. If you have anything to say, we can talk slowly."
After sitting down in Wang He's office, he was busy serving tea and water.
Feng Xiao sat on the sofa, put her legs together, and leaned to one side. Her sitting posture with black stockings was really pleasing to the eye.
"Well, our brand has decided to enter China and has just established a Greater China branch."
"Also, headquarters is very optimistic about the future development of online shopping in China."
"Right now, our company is looking for high-quality factories to cooperate with and help us produce for our brand."
Feng Xiao held the water glass elegantly and spoke lightly, her every move revealing the nobility of a lady from a noble family.
"The horse her father used to ride must have been quite high." Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but think.
Wang He didn't expect that such a good thing would happen to him, and he immediately laughed.
He knew that the international sports brand NIKE did not have its own factory, and its products were basically produced by OEM factories!
Therefore, I didn’t have any overly complicated thoughts about what Feng Xiao said.
After Feng Xiao spoke briefly for a few minutes, he leaned back on the sofa, crossed his legs, and said to Zeng Wenjie, "Xiao Zeng, go talk to Mr. Wang!"
Zeng Wenjie immediately took over the conversation, took out the materials he had prepared long ago and put them on the table, and started a detailed discussion with Wang He.
From the conversation, Wang He heard that the other party was only doing online sales for the time being, which made him stunned.
"Mr. Wang, our head office is very optimistic about the development prospects of online shopping in China."
"Our brand entered China too late, and our brand influence in China is no match for our competitors."
"So, our first strategic layout is to buy a piece online and overtake others here!"
Zeng Wenjie was calm and controlled the rhythm of the conversation.
Feng Xiao seemed to be dozing off, but in fact he was listening to Zeng Wenjie talking.
As Zeng Wenjie spoke one after another, Wang He asked in surprise, "Is the prospect of online shopping so bright?"
Online shopping is still a little too advanced in this era. Many people even don’t trust online shopping and think they will be cheated.
However, many people in developed areas have already experienced the convenience brought by online shopping, so Taobao has developed very well since its establishment.
"Don't worry, we've already reached an exclusive title sponsorship agreement with a major variety show. With our brand influence and creativity, we'll be able to make the machines in your factory smoke!"
Zeng Wenjie is crazy about making big promises and feeding them.
Wang He has been really anxious recently. In addition, Feng Xiao has a very good style and Zeng Wenjie is smooth-talking, so he was really fooled.
Some of the terms in the contract provided by Zeng Wenjie are very harsh for the factory. If all of them are implemented, the entire factory will probably be completely reduced to the other party's production machine.
If we lose the order, we will probably go bankrupt instantly.
Moreover, there is a direct shipping model. After the customer places an order, the factory has to pay for the shipment out of its own pocket, and the shipping costs are only settled once every quarter.
But Wang He still decided to bite the toothpick and give it a try.
After all, if Phoenix Leather Factory continues to operate like this, it will eventually go bankrupt. It would be better to take a chance and turn bicycles into motorcycles.
Zeng Wenjie chose Phoenix Leather Factory precisely because of this. If it were any other company, he would probably be told to get out.
"Mr. Feng, Assistant Zeng, would you please have dinner with me?" Wang He said with a smile.
"No, we still have things to do. Mr. Wang, please produce the samples first. We will complete the contract after we have inspected them and passed them." Feng Xiao said coldly.
Wang He agreed, "Okay! I'll try to finish it within two days."
After seeing the design drawings, Wang He was also quite amazed and became more convinced that Marennia is a major international brand from Italy!
Zeng Wenjie had prepared these design drawings a long time ago and had kept them in his computer. Today they finally came in handy.
I just wonder if any designers from brands like Valentino, YSL, Gucci, and Balenciaga will lose their jobs because of this...
"Mr. Feng, please get in the car." Zeng Wenjie trotted to the Audi, opened the door, and put his hand to protect the upper edge of the door frame.
"Xiao Zeng, not bad!" Feng Xiao pulled his white suit jacket, smiled, reached out and pinched his face, then got into the car.
Zeng Wenjie cursed in his heart, this woman was taking the opportunity to tease him!
Wang He was stunned watching from the side. Could this assistant be Mr. Feng's kept gigolo?!
