Today the entire factory was fully operational. After the morning meeting, a large number of people rushed out, mostly from the marketing department.
The management team greeted Lu Feng, then got on their motorcycles and drove off.
Lu Feng arrived at Zhu Lidong's office but couldn't find him. He asked around in the next office and learned that Zhu Lidong had gone out early in the morning.
"You think you can sleep until sunrise? After what you said yesterday, that person probably didn't sleep well all night and is kicking themselves." Zhang Fengxia's voice drifted from behind.
Lu Feng turned around and looked at her, saying, "What kind of talk is that?"
“If I were him, and you were calling me brother before, and now you’re turning your back on me, I’d definitely slap you twice.” Zhang Fengxia handed over the folder in her hand and said, “It’s a rough market research report. General Manager Zhu went to the city. He’ll probably be very busy these few days.”
“Then I’ll go to the city too. We can’t afford to lose this first battle.” Lu Feng was about to leave when he suddenly remembered something and stopped. He said, “Hold a meeting with the finance department today and allocate that 50 million. Send 15 million to Liucheng. That’s this year’s R&D funding. Also, tell him that if he can’t produce any decent technological breakthroughs after all this money is invested, he’s fired.”
"Give us that much? I had a meeting with the finance manager yesterday. Fifty million seems like a lot, but there are employee salaries, raw materials, machine maintenance, and we need money everywhere."
“The factory is big, so there are bound to be a lot of losses every day, which is normal. Once you become the president, you have to learn to manage the household. Things will be better once the market opens up and you start making a profit.” After Lu Feng finished speaking, he asked, “Is the car still there?”
"It's parked downstairs. By the way, the business department submitted an approval form today. They know the factory has money and wants to buy an official vehicle, which costs close to two million. I'm just about to go to the finance department to ask about it."
"What kind of car do you want for two million?" Lu Feng frowned, already feeling that his subordinates were not being honest with him and quite unhappy.
"Three imported Crowns, one costing around 400,000 yuan, and three Santanas, one costing around 250,000 yuan. People said that using them as business reception vehicles was too low-class, and that Santanas were for use by leaders."
"We haven't made any money, but we've developed a culture of extravagance. They approved one Crown, two Santanas, and bought five Tianjin Dafa cars. You need to tell the finance department in a meeting that they shouldn't think they can just reimburse expenses as they please just because they have money. Stop this trend!"
"knew!"
Lu Feng took the car keys and drove straight to the city.
Nowadays, appliance sales outlets are relatively concentrated, either in farmers' markets, appliance malls, or stores in commercial districts.
People were already coming and going at the entrance of the Supply and Marketing Building. Various stalls were set up at the entrance, and the shouts of vendors rose and fell. In the congested areas, pedestrians pushed rickshaws and stood there bargaining with the stall owners. It was extremely noisy and difficult to move an inch.
The ground was littered with trash, and a foul stench emanated from the old sewers; the environment was truly unbearable to look at.
"Breakfast! Breakfast is only 70 cents a person, all you can eat!"
"Come and take a look! The clothes here are so nice! They look really handsome on young men, and every girl would love them!"
"Rat poison!! Cockroach poison!!"
Lu Feng stood at the door, surrounded by the sounds of daily life. A banner had been put up at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative, which read: "Jiakang TV is giving back to new and old customers with a price reduction of 200 yuan!"
Panda TV manufacturer's promotion: a 270 yuan discount, bring home a 29-inch large-screen TV.
TCL's robust quality is on sale! Large color TVs are reduced by 240 yuan.
There's an Enfan high-end TV store located downstairs in the supply and marketing building. A banner hangs at the entrance that reads: "Enfan high-end TV, world-leading technology, a thank-you offer, a direct price reduction of 500 yuan, leading technology, enjoy life."
The banners were stacked one on top of another, practically screaming "I want Lu Feng dead!" Seeing this situation, Lu Feng's face turned very ugly.
The people around here are dressed quite casually. It's still morning, so if you want to see pretty young girls, you'll have to wait an hour or two before they come out to shop.
Lu Feng was wearing a suit that looked expensive, making him stand out in the crowd. Several young girls at the counters at the entrance of the supply and marketing cooperative frequently looked him up and down.
However, a middle-aged woman in front of Lu Feng looked at him with great displeasure and shouted, "You're dressed so smartly, standing in front of my stall without buying anything. If you're just posing to hook up with young girls, stand aside and don't block my business!"
Lu Feng then noticed that he was standing in front of a candied hawthorn stall. He looked a little flustered, while the girls staring at him covered their mouths and laughed.
"Excuse me, I'd like to buy a candied hawthorn." Lu Feng took out a two-yuan note from his pocket and handed it over.
"Three cents!"
"No need to look anymore." Lu Feng took the candied hawthorn and stepped inside.
So extravagant!
An older woman sitting on a small stool nearby whispered, "Rich people, I saw them arrive in a car."
The supply and marketing building has three floors. The first floor sells rice, flour and oil, the second floor sells shoes, hats and clothing, and the third floor sells electrical appliances. As soon as you enter the third floor, there is a display stand opposite you filled with Weipuda TVs. At the same time, red silk is hung on the counter with a banner that reads "German quality, as solid as a rock!"
There were twenty or thirty television sets on display. The distributor was chatting with Zhu Lidong, and people from other counters came over to look. Lu Feng stepped over and asked, "How's it going?"
"President Lu is here?" Zhu Lidong turned around and saw Lu Feng, then introduced him to the man next to him: "Let me introduce you, this is our boss, President Lu, and this is the local agent, President Hu!"
"Hello!" Lu Feng extended his hand.
Mr. Hu glanced at Lu Feng, his eyes showing some surprise, and shook Lu Feng's hand, saying, "Mr. Lu is truly a young man of great talent."
