"Number 2 is good. Are you sure you can get the number 2 position?"
“I’ve already made the request; you might need to make a trip there,” the chief secretary said.
Xing Baohua nodded. There are still four days until the opening ceremony, so let's quickly finalize the location and get the decoration team in.
There are quite a few workers here, and glass counters, display cases and other equipment are already prepared.
They even applied for a phone line to be put in, which was for testing the telephone.
The cell phone signal was full bars in the lobby, which is great for Nandu Post and Telecommunications. I guess they added a signal amplifier to the lobby.
More and more people are using mobile phones, especially those attending the Canton Fair, who are either leaders or big businessmen. To ensure they can make calls smoothly, several amplifiers have been added.
Xing Baohua called his secretary and asked her to come to the room.
Actually, the idea was to have the chief secretary mentor the junior secretary, to facilitate some communication and handover of tasks.
The secretary was hesitating whether to go or not.
He finally arrived, but as soon as he entered, after being introduced by Xing Baohua, he left.
This left Xiao Mi Bai feeling worried and disappointed, unsure why this double contradiction had arisen.
This guy must have heard plenty of stories about secretaries doing all the work during the day and doing the work at night.
You can't guess what's on a secretary's mind.
Xing Baohua rushed to the provincial delegation and, after communicating with the delegation leader, easily secured booth number 2.
However, there is a prerequisite: Xing Baohua needs to achieve foreign exchange earnings of over 5 billion yuan this year, the more the better.
In other words, the guaranteed sales target for booth number 2 is 5 billion yuan in transaction volume, which is slightly more than last year.
As long as the results are better than last year's, that's a victory.
That way, everyone can save face. We've given you the best booth; if you can't achieve last year's results, how can that be acceptable?
When Xing Baohua stepped out of the provincial delegation's residence gate, he thought he was seeing things, but he actually saw his old man.
I called out "Dad," and surprisingly, someone answered.
That's right, it's Xing's father.
There were many people around Xing's father; he probably went out drinking before coming back.
As he greeted the crowd, one of the factory managers, who looked somewhat familiar, said, "Hey, Manager Xing, you're way too late! We couldn't find you anywhere to have a drink."
"Sorry! I just came from Hong Kong and I have some things to take care of there. I'll treat everyone later!"
Mr. Xing asked, "Which floor do you live on, and which room?"
"I'm not staying here, I'm staying at the Baiyun Hotel." Xing Baohua had barely finished speaking when...
Someone else said, "Director Xing, that's not right of you. You left the organization last year. Leaving again this year doesn't make sense! You feel awkward with us old guys, don't you!"
"I'm sorry! I have a lot of foreign business and need a high-end environment, this place is not quite there yet," Xing Baohua said with a smile, actually retorting to the other party.
The other party implied that Xing Baohua was not in harmony with the group and was not united, etc.
This was the last thing he wanted to hear, even though it was barbed. Yet, he managed to retort in a way that left the other person completely speechless.
What I mean is, I need a high-end place to entertain clients so I can attract more orders. This run-down place isn't up to par; people prefer to come here anyway.
Old Xing sensed a hint of tension and quickly said, "It's getting late. If you're free tomorrow, come see me. I have something to discuss."
"Okay, Dad, get some rest. You've only just recovered from your illness, so please don't drink alcohol," Xing Baohua advised.
As everyone watched Xing Baohua get into his luxury car and drive away, some stared at him while others shook their heads inwardly, thinking that this was just how youthful arrogance was.
Don't be fooled by the fact that many of them are large, established companies. Compared to those who can attract foreign exchange, they are nothing.
If you're so capable, bring back several billion.
Xing Baohua knew what the old man wanted to see him about tomorrow; he simply wanted him to help the machinery factory get some orders.
This is difficult! It involves multiple industries.
Besides, he knows nothing about the large equipment in the machinery factory, so how can he help promote it? If it were oil equipment, maybe those nouveau riche with big beards wearing turbans could introduce it to them.
I really don't know which direction to take to find customers for other uses.
Never mind that for now. When she got back to her room, both secretaries had already left. Xing Baohua was exhausted after a long day and deserved a rest.
In the morning, the chief secretary came to call Xing Baohua to go to the restaurant for lunch, while the junior secretary followed behind, diligently learning how to be a good secretary.
After finishing their meal, many people went to the trade fair to see the exhibition halls, as there were still three days left for renovations.
Based on last year's experience, the layout was planned well in advance, so it was no longer rushed.
Start working according to the blueprints.
They worked quickly, and the staff included carpenters and bricklayers. Before joining the factory, these people had been doing odd jobs on construction sites to supplement their family income.
After training, they learned to solder pins, perform repairs, do electric welding, and use a multimeter. They haven't lost their old skills; they're all talented!
Despite having limited time, they were the fastest to finish, having prepared display cases and other items in advance.
To save time, Xing Baohua didn't have the floor tiles laid; instead, she directly laid them flat, glued the gaps together, and then laid the carpet on top.
It'll be fine for half a month. Quality isn't important, as long as it gets by.
The rice showroom was decorated in a very high-end style, with a full glass display stand, projector lights, and rotating product bases.
This allows customers to view samples in high definition from any angle.
The number of translators hired has increased by three compared to last year, and Xing Baohua now has five translators available.
Everything is ready; we're just waiting for the opening ceremony.
Tell the chief secretary to prepare a cell phone so that Xing Baohua can call the old man when she visits him in the evening, and that he can call him if he needs anything.
