Chapter 375 Participating in the Canton Fair
Early the next morning, the cooperating foreign trade company sent a car to pick them up. They prepared their documents in advance, and everyone went directly to the exhibition site to work.
Zhou Huaiyi's situation was different, he had his own procedures, so everyone separated at the exhibition entrance and agreed to meet at their booth later.
Huang Ling took a look at the booth and said to Wu Shanshan:
"Zheyu is good. He didn't spend much money and the booth is quite presentable."
"Other people's platforms are built on site or carried in from outside. Some are very simple, just a table. Ours is assembled on site. After this exhibition, we can disassemble it and use it again next year. It doesn't take up space when stored," Wu Shanshan introduced.
"It was designed by Tu Nan!" Huang Ling understood immediately.
Wu Shanshan nodded.
"Yes, our family can save money on designers." Huang Ling nodded.
Huang Ling did not mention this to Tunan, so it was probably Xie Zheyu who discussed it with him.
Others are explaining their products to people, but the people behind can't hear and the people in front refuse to leave. After the people in front leave, the people behind come up and explain it again.
Huang Ling and her colleagues distributed brochures and gave them to the people behind them first. After the people in front had asked questions clearly, the people behind them also had a clear idea and could ask key questions when it was their turn. The efficiency was very high.
The model contract has both Chinese and English versions prepared in advance and can be signed on the spot.
When Zhou Huaiyi finished part of his work and found them, Wu Shanshan and Huang Ling were dealing with a group of foreign guests, speaking fluent English.
Huang Ling did not wear a fashionable dress. Instead, she and Wu Shanshan wore a white shirt with a bow on the chest and black trousers, looking professional and capable.
Lin Wufeng spoke poorly, but he was trying his best, and with the help of sign language, the international common language, he actually made the other party nod frequently.
As a former college student, he was also very outstanding. He quickly captured and learned some service keywords other than products from Huang Ling and Wu Shanshan, such as "customization", "sea shipping", "after-sales service", etc., and put them into use immediately.
Everyone was busy, so Zhou Huaiyi stepped back and watched from a distance.
There were not many people at the next stall. They were just looking at Huang Ling and the others, and then they said:
"Tsk tsk tsk, if I only heard the voice I would have thought it was a foreigner!"
"That's right! Awesome! Our factory hired one a while ago, just to translate the manuals for new machines, for 100 yuan a day!"
"Oh my god! That's three thousand yuan a month. I can't even make three thousand in a year."
Zhou Huaiyi looked at them, with a look of pride on his face.
Originally, Huang Ling said that if there were no customer inquiries, she would come back early to take Wu Shanshan and Wu Jun out to play, but she didn't expect that she would be busy until closing time in the evening.
When I got home, my throat was sore. I didn't want to play or even talk.
She and Zhou Huaiyi began to use the most common international language - sign language.
Fortunately, Zhou Huaiyi knew her very well. He knew what she meant just by tilting his head, so she didn't need to say anything.
However, Zhou Huaiyi was still very distressed and kept nagging:
"I haven't done anything this strenuous in ages! My feet are swollen. I can't wear leather shoes tomorrow. I'll have to wear the sneakers I'm going out with!"
Huang Ling soaked her feet and nodded at him.
At this time, someone knocked on the door.
Zhou Huaiyi opened the door and saw that it was Wu Jun, holding a big teapot in his hand.
"Auntie Huang, Uncle Zhou, this is the monk fruit tea that the aunt in the factory cafeteria made for you."
"That's good, thank you, Xiaojun." Zhou Huaiyi hurriedly poured out the boiled water in the teacup and took two large cups of monk fruit tea.
"It's okay, Uncle Zhou. I'll send some to Uncle Lin and the others as well."
After Xiaojun finished speaking, he knocked on the door next door and poured each of them a large glass.
After drinking the sweet monk fruit tea, Huang Ling felt relieved a lot. Holding up her notebook, she said in a hoarse voice:
"It's worth it. Today's purchase volume is equivalent to one quarter's volume."
"I know it even if you don't say it, otherwise how could you work so hard!" Zhou Huaiyi took the water cup and handed over the foot towel, then went to pour water.
When she came back, Huang Ling fell asleep on the edge of the hammock with her legs draped over her.
Zhou Huaiyi helped her move, put the pillow under her head, and covered her with a thin quilt.
At first, Zhou Huaiyi thought Huang Ling earned a lot of money, more than an average person could spend in several lifetimes, yet she continued to do so with such enthusiasm that he assumed she was just looking for the money. Later, however, he realized that Huang Ling enjoyed the process of acquiring, the process of creating something from nothing, and the thrill of being in control.
To put it bluntly, it's "playing".
As long as she's interested in a business, she has to "play" it, and she won't be satisfied until she "plays" well. She doesn't care how much money she makes, as long as she doesn't lose money.
Looking at the exhausted Huang Ling, he felt both distressed and proud.
What they didn't expect was that yesterday was just the beginning.
Starting from the next day, more manufacturers came to consult. Seeing that it was too busy to handle the work, the foreign trade company transferred more people from the company to help.
Zhou Huaiyi spent three days completing the research work and came to help. He originally worked for three days, and then took a few days off to wait for Huang Ling to go back together.
Before coming, he also wanted to take Huang Ling out for a good time for two days, but in the end there was no chance at all.
A group of people are immersed in their work and cannot extricate themselves.
If there were no regulations on the time each exhibitor has to exhibit, they would still be able to do it.
After this cooperation, Huang Ling felt that the other party had the conditions and capabilities for further cooperation, so the two parties reached an intention for long-term cooperation.
On the last day, people from the foreign trade company invited the group to dinner to express their gratitude.
During the dinner, people from the foreign trade company praised Xie Zheyu highly: "It's such a pity that Xiao Xie didn't come this time!"
Huang Ling replied, "If there's a chance, he'll come here often in the future. You can contact Xiao Wu about his work in Guangzhou."
"Yes, yes, Xiao Wu is also very capable. Needless to say, you can tell at first glance that he's someone you brought up! His style is exactly the same!"
"Yes, he is a good child that I watched grow up." Huang Ling looked at Wu Shanshan beside her.
Huang Ling communicates with Guangzhou locals from a foreign trade company in Cantonese. Initially, she felt a little unfamiliar with the language after not having spoken for a long time, but after a few days, it became very natural.
Wu Jun came to eat with him. He closed his jaw in shock and whispered to Zhou Huaiyi beside him:
"Uncle Zhou, I can speak Mandarin and English! That's amazing!"
Zhou Huaiyi smiled and said, "Don't your sister and you also know how to do it?"
Wu Jun thought about it and laughed, "Yeah, I speak Mandarin pretty well now! It's just that my English isn't so good. I'll keep working on it!"
"Yeah, that's amazing. I don't even understand what they're saying."
"I'll translate for you."
"good."
The two talked in low voices, very intimately.
Since other people were busy these days, Zhou Huaiyi, who was a little free, often accompanied Wu Jun and chatted with him, mostly about things that he was not comfortable telling his sister.
Upon asking, I found out that Wu Chongnan knew about their situation, often chatted with him, took him and his son to play ball and travel, and played an important male parent role in his life.
Zhou Huaiyi was relieved.
The group successfully completed their mission and returned to Suzhou happily.
While they were accomplishing their great task, Zhu Xiu Yu was also quietly accomplishing her own great task.
