The meeting lasted for more than an hour. From product packaging to market research, Lu Feng kept revising the plan, especially the packaging of the glass bottles.
As various departments grow stronger, especially with the recruitment of outstanding talents from state-owned enterprises, the designs are becoming more and more mature, and many of the plans are quite impressive.
We held two meetings this morning to finalize the current market plan, and also to ensure that the six factories in the early stages of production start as soon as possible.
With March fast approaching, Lu Feng knew that if he couldn't win in the first half of the year, the second half would be even more brutal. He was well aware of this and knew that he was at a disadvantage in a fierce battle with Wahaha. He had to gain some advantage in the first half of the year.
Otherwise, the market will show signs of decline. Most importantly, the confidence of internal personnel will be undermined. Lu Feng understands all too well the principle that a good start is followed by a decline and then exhaustion.
Jiaming is now thriving in the local market, so everyone at Jiaming Foods is full of energy.
"Let's settle on this for now and get to work. Tell them to keep a close eye on the factories in Baiyuan City. Don't just focus on your own work; they need to have a broader perspective." Lu Feng closed the folder and said, "Have them send people out to develop around these six factories. Even if they don't build factories, they need to figure out the supply and raw material markets in the surrounding area to provide support. We can't be in an unfamiliar place and get cheated."
Many people at the scene laughed when they heard Lu Feng's words. It would be a real joke if Jiaming Foods had been cheated.
"Let's eat first." Lu Feng said, waving to Gao Zhiwei before leaving the conference room without saying a word.
"Mr. Lu, is there anything you want to say?" Gao Zhiwei followed him out.
"Can the production line be brought over in early March?" Lu Feng asked.
"It should be fine. I called their general manager a few days ago and he said that this batch of machines is all imported and the production efficiency is twice that of the original. We placed the order last year, and things have been moving very fast recently. I heard that they have arrived at the port and are going through customs."
"We need to be quick. If there are any obstacles they can't overcome, we should help them if we can. We can't afford to waste time. It would be a real pain if we couldn't launch the product in April. By the way, how's Wahaha doing lately?" Lu Feng asked.
"I'll tell you in a bit," Gao Zhiwei said with a somewhat stiff smile.
Lu Feng had already sensed something. He didn't say anything as he walked towards the cafeteria, but when he heard Duo Duo's voice behind him, he remembered that the child was still there.
"Come here, let Daddy give you a hug." Lu Feng reached out and picked up Duo Duo, looking at Zhang Fengxia and saying, "You've been taking care of the child all morning, you must be exhausted."
“Duoduo is quite well-behaved, and he seems to resemble you. He’s very interested in business.” Zhang Fengxia looked at him, already sensing something different about him. She had sat and listened to both meetings that morning.
The two meetings covered a wide range of topics, from product development, marketing, corporate management, and fund allocation to the coordination of various parties involved in purchasing machinery. Lu Feng handled everything with ease. He had his own clear standards for everything, and he was decisive and efficient in his work. Once a decision was made, he would not discuss it further.
Zhang Fengxia used to think that Gao Zhiwei was the busiest person in the entire factory, handling everything, while Lu Feng was always out having dinner with people, building relationships, fooling people, and even cheating people. Now it seems that if Lu Feng were to manage a factory, he would definitely have an easier time than Gao Zhiwei.
"Let's eat first. We have a meeting this afternoon. Since you're the secretary, you could try taking meeting minutes." After saying that, Lu Feng picked up Duo Duo and left.
Zhang Fengxia couldn't help but roll her eyes. She was both soothing the child and taking meeting minutes.
Inside the cafeteria, Jiang Xiaoyan was already sitting at the table eating. In the morning, the kindergarten had called home and briefly explained the situation, which was nothing more than persuading Duoduo to withdraw from the program.
Jiang Xiaoyan then learned that Lu Feng had taken the child to school early in the morning, but the child was not at school at all. When she arrived at the factory, the staff told her that Lu Feng was in a meeting in the conference room.
As they approached the cafeteria, Lu Feng asked, "How's Wahaha doing?"
"That's right. Last year, I came here to find distributors, which was actually to pave the way for this year. Last year, President Zong formulated a comprehensive plan, and it started operating at the beginning of this year. The products have already entered our city!"
Lu Feng stopped walking, put Duo Duo down, and told her to walk by herself. He felt incredibly heavy-hearted. His time was too limited. If he had given Jiaming Foods an extra year, he wouldn't be in such a passive position.
"What's wrong, Mr. Lu?"
"It feels like we've been invaded in our hometown." Lu Feng chuckled and said, "It's okay, in a few months our canned goods and snacks will fill the streets and alleys of Hangzhou. Go buy some Wahaha nutritional drink for your kids."
“I have some in my office. I saw it at a supermarket the day before yesterday and bought it on a whim, but they didn’t have many on the shelves, and they were quickly sold out. This is from the warehouse.” Gao Zhiwei said as he went into his office to get it.
Lu Feng strode forward and entered the cafeteria, where he saw Duo Duo clinging to Jiang Xiaoyan's leg and talking incessantly.
“There’s a problem at the kindergarten. Why didn’t you call home and let me take her back? You must have had a lot of trouble this morning,” Jiang Xiaoyan said.
Before Lu Feng could speak, Zhang Fengxia said, "Duoduo is so well-behaved. He sat there all morning listening to his meetings."
"You're the one who coaxed me? You've gone to a lot of trouble."
"Auntie gave me a lollipop." Duoduo took a lollipop out of her pocket.
Lu Feng sat down and said, "Eat less sugar. You're always complaining about toothaches; you've got worms!"
Gao Zhiwei walked in and handed Duoduo a few bottles of Wahaha. The food was already on the table. Lu Feng picked up his chopsticks and started eating. The atmosphere at the table was a bit dull. Zhang Fengxia glanced at Jiang Xiaoyan while eating. She always felt that Jiang Xiaoyan had a problem with her.
