In preparation for this distributors' conference, Xing Baohua also invited several media outlets, including television stations, magazines, and newspapers.
According to certain unwritten rules, a small fee is required, usually around 200 yuan per red envelope.
Xing Baohua specifically instructed Director Liu to make proper arrangements for this matter. If possible, after the conference, he wanted them to stay a little longer so they could visit the car factory, take some photos, and write some promotional articles to generate buzz beforehand.
With three days to go before the distributors' conference, the number of foreign clients has increased to over one hundred. According to statistics from relevant municipal departments, businesspeople from 28 countries have arrived.
This move by Da Mi caught the attention of the leaders in eastern Shandong.
If there are so many foreign businesspeople every year, should we combine the resources within the province to organize a province-wide exhibition of related products?
It's such a waste of resources to only sell rice.
People were sent to follow up and understand the situation. Wei Laisong also received instructions to prepare a detailed research report based on the relevant data from the rice conference.
Wei Laisong was very happy. This achievement was handed to him for free. If he worked harder, he could ask the province for some funds to build a comprehensive international convention and exhibition center. It sounded wonderful.
We discussed the feasibility of building an international convention and exhibition center with Xing Baohua.
Xing Baohua never expected that his unintentional act would involve so much trouble, but the higher-ups' considerations were correct. Attracting so many foreign investors and promoting related products throughout the province definitely necessitates a larger exhibition hall.
It doesn't matter what you sell!
Xing Baohua agreed, so Wei Laisong went to make the arrangements.
Unexpectedly, there were also many difficulties, as the provincial capital was also vying to have an international convention and exhibition hall built.
The reasons given are compelling: it has an international airport, making travel convenient; it's a first-tier city and a tourist destination. This not only boosts product sales but also stimulates tourism development.
What's in Luzhong? It's all chimneys.
This matter greatly frustrated Wei Laisong, but the higher-ups had their own considerations, and in the end, Wei Laisong compromised through an exchange of benefits.
The international convention and exhibition hall is located in the provincial capital city.
The location is also very good, close to the stadium, and located west of Thousand Buddha Mountain and next to Shunjing Well.
It's only three or four miles from the South Suburb Hotel. Without the boost from rice, this international convention and exhibition center would have been completed two thousand years later, more than a decade ahead of schedule.
The rice business has been split up, and now Rice Technology is leading this distributor meeting. The sales and foreign trade departments are busy and there aren't enough translators, so they've brought in many students from the provincial capital's foreign language college to help out as temporary translators.
Xing Baohua received strong support from the city and province for holding this meeting on his own turf.
It has to be said that they are very supportive, providing support in terms of manpower, resources, and finances.
Luzhong has really gained face; with so many foreign businesses coming, they should take this opportunity to promote it.
Xing Baohua personally chaired the meeting. He felt a little awkward about wearing a suit, which he had prepared, so he ended up wearing a Zhongshan suit with a stand-up collar.
Made of navy blue pure wool, it fits the body very well and makes you look very smart.
The only difference between this and the Zhongshan suit I wear now is the collar and the waistline.
With the defined lines, Xing Baohua's thick waist no longer looked like a barrel. At first glance, it was quite attractive.
This was custom-made by Xing Baohua himself. He hadn't had a chance to wear it until now, when he was hosting the meeting. Wearing it also represents tradition.
On the day of the product launch, Xing Baohua personally inspected the necessary equipment and film projection equipment.
The meeting was scheduled for 9 a.m., but people started coming in around 8 a.m., including both domestic and international distributors. Five or six hundred people sat down in a dense crowd.
Those who knew each other chatted together, and soft music played in the venue to create a pleasant atmosphere.
The first two rows were reserved for important clients and relevant leaders, with staff from the city hotel and several guesthouses serving as ushers for the meeting.
When the time was up, Xing Baohua didn't have a microphone in his hand, but instead had a small microphone hidden in his collar.
He had a wireless transmitter clipped to his waist.
He made a striking entrance, his hair was slicked back with hair oil, gleaming under the lights. His shoes were shiny, but his face was a bit dark.
As soon as he appeared, a flurry of camera flashes went off. He almost had to raise his hand to shield his eyes, and then the entire audience erupted in applause.
This guy also clapped, looking to the left, middle, and right, actually trying to avoid the flashing lights.
After the applause subsided, Xing Baohua joked, "The backstage staff just told me if I wanted to wear sunglasses."
I said, "Why are you wearing that thing? It makes it hard for me to see the guests."
At this point, everyone smiled slightly.
He continued, "That burst of flashes just now made me a little regretful."
The audience burst into laughter, followed by applause.
Xing Baohua gestured for everyone to quiet down and smile.
"This is the first time Dami Technology has held a distributor launch event since its inception. Not just this year, but every year. Whenever Dami innovates and launches a new product, we hold a launch event to show everyone just how amazing and number one Dami Technology's products are."
As the applause subsided, Xing Baohua said, "Let's not take up too much of your time. First, let me introduce our first rice communication product: a pager with built-in composer ringtones and a large-screen pager that can display news, entertainment, sports, finance, and even stock market information."
Xing Baohua took out a model similar to the Dopod D9000, which is a side-sliding cover. When you push it up, you can see a row of keyboards underneath.
"After last year's research and development and improvements, two-way paging has received more hardware and software support, which is why I have this dm-11 in my hand."
