Chapter 99
The attitude of Life Food Factory has been made clear enough.
However, the three people's hearts gradually calmed down as they thought about what it meant to work together.
Out of curiosity, I couldn't help but ask: "Let's work together and strive for excellence"
Lu Qin acted as if he hadn't been the one to mislead them. "That is to say, our Laifu Food Factory has chosen to cooperate with you. You see, all three products are excellent. It's hard to choose, isn't it?"
Who would admit that their own product is not excellent? Moreover, they cannot point out the other party's shortcomings in front of the person concerned.
As soon as he said this, the relationship between the three factories, which was on the verge of breaking up, suddenly stopped at the gap that had been widening.
Secretary Qian and the other two initially thought that they only wanted to choose one company. After being really anxious, they suddenly changed their minds and talked about wanting to cooperate with all three companies. Their emotions were very ups and downs.
They were so close that they even thought the three factories were going to compete with each other.
But this explanation alone was enough to make them excited, because it was undeniable that Lu Qin was stating the facts. It was difficult for a single company to become big and strong, and one factory could not take up the whole pie.
After a morning tour of the Lefu Food Factory, they had fully demonstrated their advantages and were already standing firm. Then, during the dessert review, they used both actions and words to persuade.
After taking this two-pronged approach, the three of them were feeling a bit dizzy. Despite feeling that their arguments made sense, they were trying hard to stay clear-headed. Since the three companies were collaborating, at least they didn't have to compete, and their tense mindsets gradually relaxed.
Each of them looked at their own factory's products on the table. It was unique and delicious, and there wasn't a similar combination on the market right now. If the women in their family saw this, they would most likely buy it.
Although the combined price of these two products is a bit higher, deterring many consumers, since both have become large and powerful, there are dozens of cities in the province. While rural residents may not be able to afford them or are reluctant to buy them, there are definitely people in the cities who can afford them. Furthermore, the current situation is one of supply exceeding demand, with people facing a situation where even those with money cannot afford them. This means that there will definitely be people who buy them no matter what.
The muffled sound of water pouring interrupted their thoughts. Zhou Jun brought the thermos and poured water for them. "Have some tea first, everyone."
Lu Qin silently gave him a thumbs up.
When Zhou Jun reached him, Lu Qin quickly pulled out his cup and poured hot water into it. He blew on it twice. After talking so much, he was thirsty. For the rest of the time, he would wait for Director Ren to handle the situation.
Factory Director Ren continued to ask for their opinions while they were still calm. "What do you think? If you think we can cooperate, we will definitely treat this matter with the utmost sincerity. Mutual benefit and win-win results, and contributing to our factory and society, are our ultimate goals."
The words are a bit confusing, but very clear.
Laifu Food Factory's initial choice of partner factory was purposeful, and Director Ren is now confident. If the partnership is finalized, he will be even more confident in Laifu Food Factory's future development.
Secretary Qian was the one who took the lead. He looked up and saw the young man opposite him sipping hot water. He couldn't help but raise his teacup and take a sip. As the warm water went down his mouth, his mood was only half calm.
"Director Ren, please tell us more about the cooperation." Their purpose in coming here was to cooperate. They had remained silent at first in order to gain greater benefits.
Director Ren calmed down and asked the other two, "Comrades, what about you?"
Laifu Food Factory has the technology, production capacity, and manpower. Secretary Meng looked up at Lu Qin, who nodded. "We have the same idea as Secretary Qian. We'd like to hear your specific ideas."
"Okay!" Director Ren smiled. This wasn't his first time discussing a partnership, but it was the first time it had been so easy, without much back and forth. He had already made all the arrangements.
"It's like this. The products I just showed you are the result of our initial planning. How to make the products more refined and promote our reputation together is beyond the purview of Life Food Factory. I believe everyone has opinions and suggestions, and we will need to discuss them with you when the time comes."
This is the respect they deserve.
"This is our material, you can take a look."
After he finished speaking, Zhou Jun distributed documents to them.
The three of them were tempted. Since they all expressed their willingness to cooperate, they didn't care about being reserved anymore. They each took a copy of the materials and started reading.
This is a detailed document covering possible disagreements that may arise during the cooperation process. Including but not limited to product name, product target group, pricing, capacity, etc.
There are four blanks behind each specific item, left for each person to fill in, which means that their opinions are fully respected.
The three of them were moved by the seriousness and attitude alone.
Lu Qin looked from afar and realized that he was involved in all of this.
Guessing that he would have nothing to do for a while, he secretly gestured to Section Chief Zhou to go out for a walk.
Zhou Jun nodded, then stood up silently, took a step back, and suddenly took two steps forward and took the snacks on the table.
It took a whole day, and when I came out of the factory, it was already past four in the afternoon.
Lu Qin opened the biscuit bag, threw a piece into his mouth, and slowly walked away.
In the following time, they had some consensus and some uncertainty about the content of the materials. The latter was more common, and they had to go back to the factory for a meeting to discuss it.
But overall, the four companies have reached a consensus on cooperation and the atmosphere is quite harmonious.
It was getting late, so Director Ren arranged for someone to take them back to the guesthouse. After making the arrangements, he looked up and found that Lu Qin was not there.
Zhou Jun was very familiar with the secretary's job. He packed up his things and said, "Lu Qin is out."
Director Ren saw him about to collect those things and reminded him, "You two should divide the rest."
Lu Qin felt that he had returned at the right time. "Director, is there anything else I can help you with?"
The smile on Director Ren's face was visible to the naked eye. "Everyone has worked hard today. Go back and rest early. Divide these things and the things in the box among yourselves."
The two of them naturally thanked him.
There were only two of them left in the factory office. Zhou Jun dragged out a box from under the table. There were about five or six items, including the three on the table.
He took a can of biscuit mix and said, "I'll take this one, you can take the rest."
Lu Qin glanced at it and said insincerely, "Take two more."
"No need." He met his gaze. "According to the current situation, we have already reached a cooperation agreement. I guess you will be very busy later. Besides, you are basically doing secretarial work now, so you should be prepared for the transfer."
And it’s time to recruit workers in the second half of the year.
Lu Qin paused while holding the box. When he was transferred to another position, he was like a hen sitting on brood. He could always find a new place to squat and feel comfortable squatting anywhere.
Just as Zhou Jun said, he was transferred to the factory office to help more than once in the following days.
A week later, the three people who had rushed back to their factory came back exhausted and signed a contract with Life Food Factory with the negotiated results.
"Happy cooperation!" The four parties should be a handshake between two parties.
Their products will be fully shipped in two months, and then we will know how effective they are.
Factory Director Ren shook their hands and said, "If you have any other questions, you can communicate with our Laifu Food Factory. Since we have chosen to cooperate, we are now one family."
No matter how you look at it, the Life Food Factory has benefited. They've negotiated three collaborations, each involving their products. Furthermore, their biscuits will definitely be shipped to locations where all three of their factories are located. This alone gives them another advantage.
"Then I'd like to thank Director Ren first." Since they had all chosen to cooperate, their attitudes became closer.
Releasing his hand, Secretary Qian looked at the young man beside him and said, "Our cannery provides food and accommodation. Why don't you come and give our factory a try? I'm quite optimistic about you."
He now realizes it later and has fully understood Lu Qin's role. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that he did not react at the time because he really wanted to negotiate a cooperation.
Lu Qin suspected that he was taking revenge by poaching people in front of the factory director and endured several stares.
He smiled sincerely, "Thank you, Secretary Qian, for your affirmation. Our Laifu Food Factory has reached a cooperation agreement with you. We are now a family. Since we are a family, it doesn't matter where we work. When I work here, I work for our four factories. As a family, working together, I believe our factory will continue to grow stronger and stronger."
Secretary Qian was completely speechless after hearing these words that were flawless. He smiled and patted his shoulder, completely changing his attitude towards him at the beginning. "Then come visit us when you have time. We have beautiful mountains, beautiful waters, and delicious fruits."
Lu Qin was really tempted, "I will definitely come if I have the chance."
The two of them were two years apart in age, and they just started chatting.
Afterwards, Lu Qin caught a glimpse of Secretary Meng, who was alone. He slowly walked over to Secretary Meng and said, "Secretary Meng..."
Secretary Meng shuddered, and when he saw him, he thought of what happened earlier. He subconsciously looked at the other two secretaries and saw that they were with the factory director, Tanhua. He politely replied, "Comrade Lu."
Lu Qin naturally saw his reaction, but he pretended not to know and said enthusiastically, "Secretary Meng, do you have milk coupons? I've tried Yinghe milk twice and still remember the taste. It's a pity I can't buy it."
What he said was the same as what he had praised before. With his sincere attitude, Secretary Meng's resentment was relieved. "Yes, but you don't have Yinghe milk here. Even if you have milk coupons, you can't buy it."
"Is that so?" Lu Qin said in a distressed tone, looking regretful. "Then I can only wait until we collaborate on a new product."
"Wait a minute, I have two tickets here. You can take them. However, there is a date requirement. You can't buy them after the expiration date."
Lu Qin declined, "No, no, you'd waste it all on me. I just wanted to try it."
It's not that he was shirking responsibility. It would be a waste to give him the milk coupons since he couldn't even travel without a letter of introduction.
Secretary Meng's hand paused in mid-air, then he took the ticket back.
When he got off work, Lu Qin left the factory in a good mood, carrying two bottles of milk.
After the cooperation was agreed, time flew by. Lu Qin went to work every day, and whenever he had free time, he would go to the school to make some friends.
With Lu Qin's transfer to the factory office, the factory office has an energetic and handsome young man. The New Year has arrived, and it is time for factories to compete for benefits.
