Chapter 277: Fear of the Past
Zeng Wenjie told the four mentors that he was going to run a "Voice of China" peripheral business in a snack shop, which left the four mentors stunned.
After hearing this, Mr. Xie felt as if the clouds had been cleared and the sun had come out. He came from a wealthy family and had business genes. Otherwise, he would not have been able to make tens of billions just by selling grilled sausages in the years to come.
After communicating the matter, Zeng Wenjie politely waved goodbye to the four star mentors, turned around and went to find the photographer, and asked him to send the photos he had just taken to the email address of Malenia Company.
The photographer laughed and said, "Your brain is smarter than a monkey's!"
Zeng Wenjie pulled two packs of cigarettes from his pocket and handed them to the photographer, saying, "No, I just admire your photography skills. I'm going to take them back and analyze them frame by frame!"
The photographer was too lazy to point out his dirty thoughts and promised to export the high-definition photos and send them to Marennia's company email address.
Zeng Wenjie even thought of a headline: Shocking! A "Voice of China" mentor actually did this in broad daylight?
I’m afraid that a group of editors in the UC editorial department will be laid off because of this in the future.
Zeng Wenjie just wanted to give the honest news media a shock. What bad intentions could he have?
"I have to find a way to get Lao Xie to be the brand spokesperson for my snack shop, but the price he asks will definitely hurt me..." Zeng Wenjie began to think of despicable and vulgar methods in his mind again.
First, he got Xiao Mi Mi's child labor contract but was not satisfied. Now he started thinking about how to get Lao Xie for free.
Given Zeng Wenjie's status with the Voice of China production team and the leaders of Chongshan Province, securing an endorsement deal wasn't difficult. However, there wouldn't be any discounts on the price. A two-year contract would likely cost three to four million yuan.
Spending three or four million to hire a celebrity to endorse a product for two years is still too painful for a money-hungry capitalist like Zeng Wenjie.
On Tuesday, after Christmas, Zeng Wenjie asked the snack shop to lower the price of the gift packages, as he could still make a profit.
All the major gold shops in Fengzhou have basically started selling various kinds of lucky beads, and they are also raising the prices to sixty-six, sixty-eight, and sixty-nine. They are selling them out even if the price is marked, in an effort to attract customers.
Marennia's business cooled down a bit, but after three rounds of hot marketing campaigns including gold bricks, raffles and lucky beads, the store still managed to accumulate a group of loyal customers.
On Wednesday, Gan Lin, a gold sales representative at Huaguo Gold, submitted his resignation to Li Hongqiu.
Li Hongqiu was stunned and asked, "Xiao Lin, have I ever wronged you?"
Gan Lin smiled helplessly and said, "Sister Hong, you haven't treated me unfairly. It's just that our store's sales haven't been ideal recently, so I want to change jobs!"
Li Hongqiu sighed and said, "Recently, sales in all our stores have been less than ideal due to Marenia's actions. You have sufficient experience in our store and your commission is high. Why would you want to change jobs?"
Gan Lin said, "I was just about to jump next door. Mr. Zeng said he would pay me according to my commission here."
“???”
Li Hongqiu looked at Gan Lin in shock, feeling a knife wound in the back.
"Sister Hong, I'm sorry. Marennia's gold jewelry has a high profit margin. I can get more commission for the same points. Moreover, their customer flow is also larger." Gan Lin said calmly.
Li Hongqiu's mouth twitched as he said, "Their store has ten shopping guides, and customer traffic has been declining recently. You may not be able to get more commission if you go there..."
Gan Lin then said, "Boss Zeng said that it will soon become popular again, so I don't need to worry about it."
Li Hongqiu felt his scalp tingling and a little scared.
She developed a phobia due to Zeng Wenjie's torture.
Thus, Gan Lin, the gold medal salesperson at Huaguo Gold Store, smoothly switched to the next-door Malenia Gold Store.
"Oh, Sister Lin, welcome to join our Marennia. Our Marennia will be more glorious with your joining!" Zeng Wenjie shook hands with Gan Lin enthusiastically at the door of the store, and then distributed uniforms, stockings and high heels.
Li Hongqiu was also standing at the door of his store, watching this scene, feeling very uncomfortable.
At first, she thought that Zeng's father and son were courting death by opening a gold shop between Huaguo Gold and Fengxiang Jewelry.
But now, everyone was stunned by Marennia's series of punches...
Even the best-performing salesperson in their own store jumped ship without any warning!
Li Hongqiu gnashed his teeth in hatred, but he couldn't help but come up to Zeng Wenjie to chat, and asked with a smile: "Xiao Zeng, I heard you are going to make a big move again?"
Zeng Wenjie nodded and said, "Yes!"
"I wonder what the big move is?" Li Hongqiu couldn't help asking.
"A big move that you can't copy or replicate." Zeng Wenjie responded with a smile.
Li Hongqiu was nearly pissed off. He returned to the store and called Zhang Suiyun, saying, "Boss Zhang, the college student from the store next door said they're going to make another big move!"
Zhang Suiyun, who was waiting at the airport, fell silent upon hearing this. After a moment, he sighed and said, "Forget it, I'll cancel my trip and stay in Fengzhou for a few more days!"
Not only Li Hongqiu was afraid, but Zhang Suiyun was also afraid!
It’s not that they are afraid that the direct-operated store managed by Li Hongqiu will be defeated, but they are afraid that other big brands will copy Marennia’s ideas before them, and then launch a large-scale attack and beat them half to death.
After finishing the call, Li Hongqiu saw Zeng Wenjie posting an advertisement at the door.
“Gold not only represents wealth and luxury, but also culture and elegance!”
The slogan was interesting, but it didn't attract many customers. She frowned deeply, wondering what tricks that college student was going to come up with next!
Zeng Wenjie does not plan to launch the Forbidden City series of gold jewelry immediately, but will wait until a few days before the first episode of The Voice of China is broadcast.
The photos of Xiao Mi Mi wearing the Forbidden City series of gold jewelry have been taken and will be released on that day.
As soon as the new advertisement was posted, Huang Zixiang, the manager of Fengxiang Jewelry across the street, came running over like a frightened bird.
After seeing that it was just an advertising slogan, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Li Hongqiu and he looked at each other from a distance, and both of them could feel a little fear and hesitation in each other's eyes.
"Three months."
"Two months."
The two of them thought of the date they had bet on at the same time. As a result, only one month later, they were beaten black and blue by Malenia and could not even raise their heads.
Then, the two saw Zeng Wenjie sitting on the steps smoking and answering the phone.
"Brother, hello..."
"Oh... I have to go to class! Teacher Gao said I'm a top student, so I'm afraid I'll have to go on the weekend."
"Okay, okay, then I'll drive to Niu Shou City to meet you after class on Friday."
After hearing what Zeng Wenjie said, Huang Zixiang and Li Hongqiu both became even more silent.
This guy is still a college student...
This boy is extremely talented and must not be kept!
Alas, if only this were the dark world of immortal cultivation, I could just capture this guy and refine him in an instant.
After Zeng Wenjie hung up the phone with Zhuang Aimin, he immediately called Mu Qingyang and said sweetly, "Xiao Mu, I want to take you out this weekend. Are you free?"
He even has time for a relationship?!
Li Hongqiu went straight into the store, fearing that if she continued listening, her faith would collapse.
When Huang Zixiang saw Li Hongqiu leave, he also turned around and left.
