Reborn Industrial Tycoon () Find the latest chapter!

Li Weidong felt that he was really out of luck and had a bad fate.

After finally getting a place at the Canton Fair, and then carefully preparing to participate in the exhibition, but before the opening, I found that the booth was gone!

Li Weidong stepped forward in a depressed mood and negotiated with the staff.

Comrade, this is so good, why is there another embroidery exhibition area? Li Weidong asked.

In the past few years, embroidery was exhibited together with other handicrafts, and foreign businessmen would buy some scattered as souvenirs to bring back. But last year, a European businessman purchased a large amount of embroidery, saying that he would go back and do it. home decor.

The staff and their voices paused and replied, This year the merchant is here again, and he also brought several companions. Our leaders believe that these merchants are more willing to purchase and should be able to bring a lot of Therefore, we decided to list embroidery as a separate exhibition area.”

Li Weidong immediately took out a cigarette, handed it to the staff member, and then asked, Comrade, your leaders are really amazing, and you can even see which foreign businessmen are coming!

The staff member took the cigarette, and his words became more and more, and he said: There are only a few hotels where foreign businessmen live. When this foreigner stays in the hotel, he has to register his work unit. When those foreign businessmen come to check in , we don't know what business foreign businessmen do!

So that's the case, really brilliant! Li Weidong gave a thumbs up.

The staff went on to say: And many foreign businessmen are not here for the first time. As long as they have bought things at our Canton Fair, we have records. If you come again, can you still not know them! Don't look at the Canton Fair yet? In the beginning, in fact, the foreign trade bureaus of the provinces have begun to contact foreign businessmen and sell their products to them.

And this is the first time I've heard of it. Li Weidong nodded suddenly.

Is this the first time for the little comrade to come to the Canton Fair? the staff asked,

Li Weidong pretended to be new and nodded seriously: This is the first time, this old man, you have a lot of knowledge, tell me about the doorway inside.

The staff member was so complimented by Li Weidong, and he began to show off. He said: Actually, the foreign trade departments of each province have a list of important foreign businessmen, those who have purchased in the past, and those who have strong purchasing intentions. , are all on that list, we know exactly what people want to buy.

Before the start of the Canton Fair, go to negotiate with foreign businessmen, negotiate the price, and then officially sign the list when the Canton Fair starts. Otherwise, why did these Canton Fairs have the largest transaction volume on the first day? In fact, it was already discussed.

Li Weidong pretended to be very impressed, and then asked: Then do you know the list of important foreign businessmen, where do you get it?

I definitely don't have this thing. You can ask the leader of your provincial foreign trade department. Maybe you can see it. The staff said.

Li Weidong nodded again, then leaned aside.

Wang Kaiping came over and asked, Director, our booth is gone, what should we do?

Go to Director Ma of our regiment first and ask what's going on! Li Weidong replied.

...

The director Ma mentioned by Li Weidong was named Ma Dexing, a director of the Foreign Trade Department.

This time, the foreign trade team from Handong Province came to participate in the Canton Fair. The team leader was a deputy department-level leader, but it was impossible for the leader to deal with the trivial matters at the exhibition in person, so Ma Dexing was appointed as the deputy team leader to be responsible for front-line work.

In the office area of ​​the Canton Fair, the trade teams in each province have their own offices.

When he came to the door of the office, Li Weidong knocked on the door and asked at the door, Is Director Ma there?

I'm here, please come in. Ma Dexing said, and Li Weidong pushed the door and walked in.

Ma Dexing did not know Li Weidong, but felt a little familiar.

After all, there are hundreds of companies participating in the Canton Fair in the foreign trade team of Handong Province, and there are hundreds of people in total. It is impossible for Ma Dexing to know all of them.

This little comrade is an exhibitor of our provincial foreign trade team, right? Ma Dexing first confirmed.

Yes, I am an exhibitor in our province. Li Weidong nodded.

After confirming that it was his own, Ma Dexing asked, What's the matter with you?

Li Weidong said: Director Ma, the daily necessities exhibition area has been cancelled at the venue and changed to an embroidery exhibition area. Do you know about this?

It turns out that you came here for this matter. Ma Dexing nodded suddenly, and then replied, I only found out not long ago that the daily necessities exhibition area was changed to the embroidery exhibition area. This is a temporary arrangement by the organizer. Our exhibitors have no right to interfere with the decision made. And it is not a bad thing to list an embroidery exhibition area separately. Our trade team also has embroidery products!

Director Ma, the organizer has temporarily canceled the exhibition area, so we have to give us an explanation, right? They don't have any compensation? Li Weidong asked again.

This compensation, there are still some. In the ceramic exhibition area, they gave us half a booth, and then we can display a few more black pottery handicrafts. Our Chinese ceramic products are still very popular among foreigners, especially this black pottery. , many foreigners have never seen it before, and if you add half of the booth, it is estimated that you can earn more than 50,000 US dollars in foreign exchange! Ma De answered enthusiastically.

I exchanged my booth for the black pottery counter, and I still looked like a squeak! Li Weidong felt a surge of anger in his heart.

I just heard Li Weidong say: Director Ma, our company's products were originally exhibited in the daily necessities area, but now the organizer has cancelled the daily necessities area, took my booth, and then gave compensation, this compensation, should it be? Give it back to us!

Do you produce ceramic products? Ma Dexing asked.

Li Weidong shook his head: No. We produce car seat cushions.

We are compensated for the ceramic booth. You are not a manufacturer of ceramics, so of course you can't go to the ceramic booth! Ma Dexing replied.

Is there any other booth? Give me one anyway! We can't deduct our booth and give us nothing, right? Li Weidong said.

Then I'll try to find a way for you. What are the products you exhibited? Ma Dexing asked again.

The car seat cushion is the one that sits on the car seat. Li Weidong replied.

Oh, car seat cushions, this is really difficult to arrange. You said it was textiles, but all kinds of fabrics are displayed in textiles; you said it is clothes, and you can't wear them on your body... Ma Dexing pretended to be A very worried look.

Director Ma, our car seat cushions are woven and can be placed on the woven side. Li Weidong said immediately.

There is no place for knitted products. Ma Dexing spread his hands and continued: Weaving products cover a wide range, such as willow weaving, straw weaving, reed weaving, and wool weaving. It was also led by the Foreign Trade Department, so this woven product exhibition area has long been filled. Our group still has several wicker weaving exhibits that have not been put in!”

Then what should we do with the products from our factory? Li Weidong asked directly.

The organizer temporarily modified the exhibition area. This is a special situation, and it is also an accident. Otherwise, your factory will sacrifice and develop your style. This session of the Canton Fair, do not participate in the exhibition. Wait for the next Canton Fair, I will give it to you. Find a good booth. Ma Dexing said.

Li Weidong had already seen that Ma Dexing was playing Tai Chi with him on purpose, and he had no intention of arranging a booth for him at all.

The most annoying thing about Li Weidong is this kind of person. He refuses you without knowing it, but he will find various reasons to go around, but there are many such people.

In Ma Dexing's view, the ceramic exhibition area is more important, and black pottery handicrafts are more popular with foreign businessmen. As for the car seat cushion, I don't even have a car, the ghost knows what a car seat cushion is for!

It seems that this booth is not coming. We have to find a way to get the list of important foreign businessmen. Maybe there is a chance to make a comeback. I don't know if Ma Dexing has the list of important foreign businessmen here. Li Weidong began in his heart. Think about how to inquire about the list of important foreign businessmen.

On the opposite side, Ma Dexing continued to pretend. He took out a form of companies participating in the war and said, Comrade, I will mark your factory. After next year's Canton Fair, I will give you priority to arrange booths.

It's hard to say whether you will lead the team next year! It's because I'm young and trying to fool me on purpose!

Li Weidong knew that Ma Dexing was just pretending that the so-called promise of prioritizing arrangements for next year was just to appease Li Weidong and make a bad check.

I saw Ma Dexing took the exhibitor form, searched it for a long time, and finally found the words linen car seat.

I found it, linen car seat cushion, this is your exhibit, right? Let me see, you are the Qinghe District Transportation Company Garment Factory?

Ma Dexing frowned instantly, and then asked, Why does your company sound like a tertiary industry?

We are a third child. Li Weidong replied coldly.

Then this Qinghe area transportation company is your parent company, right? Ma Dexing then asked.

Li Weidong nodded: Yes, we are the third industry of the transportation company.

After thinking for a few seconds, Ma Dexing said, Among the provincial-level enterprises, there is no transportation company in Qinghe area. Are you a prefecture-level enterprise?

A regional transportation company, isn't it a prefecture-level enterprise! Li Weidong replied.

That is to say, you are the tertiary industry of a prefecture-level enterprise? Ma Dexing confirmed again.

You are right, we are the third industry of prefecture-level enterprises. Li Weidong nodded again.

Okay, I get it. Ma Dexing's tone instantly turned cold: I have already marked you, you can come back until next year's Canton Fair! I still have some work to do, so I won't send you out.

As Ma Dexing said that, he put on a gesture of seeing off guests.

Knowing that Li Weidong's garment factory is only a tertiary industry in a prefecture-level city, Ma Dexing didn't even bother to write an empty check!

...

Li Weidong walked in the corridor of the office area with a gloomy face.

The change in Ma Dexing's attitude was completely expected by Li Weidong. After all, the garment factory is only a tertiary industry. Compared with those key national or provincial enterprises, it is normal to be unpopular.

Besides, Ma Dexing won't give Li Weidong a booth, so Li Weidong naturally doesn't have to curry favor with Ma Dexing.

You still have to rely on yourself at the critical moment! After going around in a circle, you have to find a foreigner to sell it yourself! Li Weidong sighed and began to think about countermeasures in his mind.

At this moment, a group of people came forward, Li Weidong looked up, and the leader turned out to be an acquaintance!

Li Weidong couldn't help but think of Lu You's poem:

The mountains and rivers are full of doubts, and there is another village in the shadow of the willows and flowers!
