It seems I haven't had a chance to ask about this yet.
Seeing Yan Hua's embarrassment, Ye Beiping stepped forward and extended his right hand, saying, "My name is Ye Beiping, hello Director Jin."
Slightly lost in thought, Jin Ming slowly grasped Ye Beiping's hand.
"Okay, okay."
Jin Ming was initially somewhat puzzled when Yan Hua brought this up.
He was stunned when he saw how young Ye Beiping was.
The main problem is that she's too young, and her clothes are... not very suitable.
They're complete country bumpkins.
With this question in mind, Jin Ming hesitated for a moment before asking, "Director Yan said you could solve our Jiangshan Brewery's sales problem?"
"That's right."
Ye Beiping, however, acted with composure and said, "Director Jin, I know that Jiangshan Brewery can't even pay wages right now, which means there's no money in the finance department. But there must be inventory. If we can sell this inventory, Jiangshan Brewery can definitely be brought back to life, right?"
State-owned factories are genuinely engaged in real industry, unlike the empty shells of the past.
State-owned factories that are not doing well in terms of performance definitely have inventory.
Many business geniuses emerged in the 1980s, but they were all simply helping their own state-owned factories solve their inventory problems.
However, there was no requirement for awards as Ye Beiping had mentioned; most of the time, they were given a model worker title or other honors.
Jin Ming frowned, then suddenly asked, "How old are you this year?"
Forehead......
This question left everyone present momentarily stunned.
However, Ye Beiping answered truthfully: "21".
"21 years old."
Upon hearing this answer, Jin Ming nodded and sighed, "Ye..."
"Ye Beiping." Seeing that Jin Ming couldn't remember his own name, Ye Beiping reminded him.
“Yes, yes, Ye Beiping.” Jin Ming nodded and said directly, “Director Yan said to try anything as a last resort, and it seems that we are indeed trying anything now, even having hope for you, young man.”
His tone was very dejected.
Ye Beiping noticed that Jin Ming and Yan Hua both had quite a bit of white hair, so it seemed he really had no other options.
But did this just give him a chance to make money?
"Manager Jin, let's talk about cooperation. I'll get straight to the point: I'm here for the money, to help your factory overcome its difficulties, and to teach you new sales models. I'll take a cut in the process."
Just as Jin Ming was about to ask a question, Ye Beiping interrupted him, saying, "Director Jin, let me finish what I have to say. The commission I'm asking for isn't long-term. For the beer sold in the last two weeks, I'll take five cents for each bottle. Is that alright?"
hiss!
Yan Hua and Jin Ming both gasped.
Five cents a bottle of beer?
They only sell for two cents, and retail for only three cents.
Ye Beiping took a quarter of it right away, so how could they possibly make a profit?
How are salaries paid?
Seeing the two men's shock, Ye Beiping smiled and waved his hand, saying, "Jiangshan Beer may not be making much profit right now, but if sales improve in fifteen days, won't this money be yours? I'm just taking what I'm entitled to; you can make your own money later."
Jin Ming and Yan Hua exchanged a glance, both of them silently making plans in their minds.
The profits from the first fifteen days were all handed over to Ye Beiping, and they could indeed make a lot of money afterward.
But in this way, wouldn't those fifteen days be equivalent to the entire Jiangshan Brewery working for Ye Beiping?
“No way.” Jin Ming immediately refused, thinking of this point: “This commission is too high. Five cents is already our entire profit. Even if it’s only for fifteen days, it’s too high. Even if we agree, the factory’s accounts can’t be done afterward. Although I am the factory manager, I don’t have this authority.”
Upon hearing this, Ye Beiping raised an eyebrow, having already anticipated it.
"Since Director Jin can't offer that price, then... I understand your predicament. Three cents shouldn't be a problem, right?"
The five cents was just a pretext put out by Ye Beiping.
Knowing it's impossible, you always have to start negotiations by offering a high price.
Jin Ming frowned, staring intently at Ye Beiping, and asked, "Can you really solve our factory's sales problem?"
He now has serious doubts about Ye Beiping's abilities.
If the sales problem can be solved, three cents is not out of the question.
Although the profit margin is relatively high, it's still manageable on paper, at least the factory can make a profit.
Ye Beiping nodded and said, "This money will be given to me by Director Jin after the products are sold, not after I have to sell them. Director Jin, if I can't sell them, Jiangshan Brewery will not suffer any loss."
“Yes,” Yan Hua reminded him from the side, “Factory Manager, I think this is a good idea, since we won’t suffer any losses.”
"Um."
Jin Ming nodded as well.
A profit of three cents per bottle is within an acceptable range.
Moreover, even if they couldn't sell the products, their brewery didn't suffer any losses.
This is a win-win solution.
