Chapter 38: The Most Awesome Salesman

  Lu Lai Shun was busy in the office with the product promotion plan, according to the investment plan identified by the city, the sales channel of the product is led by the city, and can even be said to be a package sale. However, it was only known two days ago that the vice mayor who was in charge of this matter had been double-regulated.

  It is said that the factory director was so angry that he smashed a cup on the spot, did not go to the rich club for massage service for two days, and even his favorite Oriental girl's phone call could not change his mind.

  "Alas, this is not good. Just as something happened here, two deputy directors spoke up and wanted to introduce business. Can't we just not take on this business? " Lu Lai Shun sighed and slapped the thick stack of materials on his desk, preparing to first deal with the inspection from the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau before attending to anything else. The factory director and the people from the Public Relations Department were all in the conference room accompanying Director Pang from the Environmental Protection Bureau.

  He looked up and saw a young couple walking in, a boy and a girl. The boy was handsome with a sincere smile on his face, as if he had seen an old friend for many years, greeting him as soon as he entered the door. The girl was pure like an unpolluted lotus flower, dressed simply and unpretentiously.

  "Manager Lu, long time no see. I am Wang Yu from Ding Sheng Group. I represent our company to discuss a business deal with you, perhaps we can help solve your current difficulties." Wang Yu walked straight up to Manager Lu and shook hands with him.

  The head of the Canned Goods Factory's Business Department is just a managerial level, and it's written on the office door.

  He was stunned by Wang Yu's enthusiasm, and it wasn't until they shook hands that he came to his senses: "You're from Ding Sheng Group? Isn't that an advertising company? What are you doing here? What kind of business can you discuss? I think you're just here to solicit business. Leave immediately, or I'll call security."

  "No business can't be discussed, don't refuse people from afar. Let our Ding Sheng help you with promotion, we will definitely open up the sales channel quickly, you should know our company's reputation." Wang Yu smiled and said.

  Xie Xiao looked at this situation and thought that they were clearly strangers who had just met and yet were already arguing.

  Lu Lai Shun no longer bothered with Wang Yu, took out his mobile phone and walked to the door, calling the security guard: "What are you two eating? How did you let a salesperson in? Come quickly and drive him away."

  Wang Yu saw that the other party was very determined, and it seemed that there was no room for relaxation. However, he still chased after them to the door and persuaded: "We are all doing business, there is no need to make the relationship so awkward. Who knows, maybe we will have the opportunity to cooperate in the future."

  "What cooperation can I have with you small business people? Get out of here immediately." Lu Lai Shun has been in a bad mood recently, and the two business people happened to be in his line of fire, giving him an outlet for his emotions.

  Xie Xiao's temper flared up and she retorted in a low voice: "Why do you have to speak so harshly? If you don't want to do it, then just say no, but there's no need to scold others."

  This was Wang Yu's second time doing business, and he didn't expect to encounter such a rude manager. He felt somewhat displeased in his heart, but seeing that the other party had no intention of communicating, he gave up and instead persuaded Xie Xiao to leave.

  Just then, a group of people suddenly walked out of the conference room. Director Pang from the Environmental Protection Bureau led the way with a furious expression, followed by a stout man in a suit and two beautiful PR ladies who were chasing after him to apologize.

  "Director Pang, don't be angry, let's talk it over, the fine is really too much... and you want us to suspend production for rectification, every minute we stop, we're losing money." Lu Factory Director was anxious and sweating all over his head, bowing and apologizing, following behind a group of people from the Environmental Protection Bureau like a grandson.

  Director Pang waved his hand impatiently: "Less than 500,000 don't even mention it. This isn't about me collecting money, we're collecting fines according to regulations. This time it's a half-month suspension of production. Next time we come for an inspection, if you still don't have a qualified wastewater treatment system, at the very least you'll be suspended for three months."

  Previously, the factory was taken care of by the deputy mayor, but now that the deputy mayor has fallen, it's the perfect opportunity for Director Pang to show off his power. How could he let it slip away? He sneered coldly, thinking to himself: If I don't skim a layer of fat from you people, wouldn't my being director be in vain?

  The smile had just disappeared when Wang Yu was seen arguing with someone from the canning factory.

  Lü Changzhang, who was in the midst of trying to curry favor, suddenly felt something was off. Just a moment ago, Pang Buzhang had been majestic and awe-inspiring, but now he seemed to have shrunk by half, his face beaming with smiles as he jogged over to a handsome young man's side.

  "Isn't this Manager Wang? What a coincidence today, coming to this small factory for business?" Director Pang said with a flattering smile, being very cautious and sincere. He couldn't be insincere, just the relationship with Mayor Mi made Director Pang fearful, let alone yesterday when he went to the hospital to visit the provincial governor's son and found that Wang Yu was quite familiar with the governor's family.

  Wang Yu saw him laughing with a face full of wrinkles, almost unrecognizable, hesitated for a moment, then shook hands with him: "Oh, it's Pang Ju. You also know the changes in our company, just need business, and here you are, running around every day."

  "Hehe, this is easy to handle. I know a few friends who own factories and are currently looking for an advertising company. If Manager Wang needs it, I can call them over at any time." Director Pang's attitude was very humble, but as someone in their 40s or 50s, they wouldn't be too exaggerated, so just maintaining the proper courtesy and enthusiasm would do.

  This was obviously an attempt to curry favor, but Wang Yu couldn't accept it. He didn't want to owe anyone a favor, let alone have a good impression of Director Pang. So, with a calm expression, he said: "Thank you first, Director Pang, if there's a need, I'll bother you again."

  Lu Changzhang was shocked for a long time and didn't dare to interrupt. The scene in front of him overturned his understanding. In his own eyes, Pang Director, who was like an emperor, actually begged this salesperson to introduce business to him, but was ruthlessly rejected by the young salesperson.

  Manager Lu of the business department's mouth was agape, unable to close it for half a day. In his eyes, this small business employee wasn't worth a penny, but the leader of the Municipal Environmental Protection Bureau was actually fawning over him? What kind of background did he have? He seemed to have... thought of that, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

  Director Pang is an old hand in officialdom, knowing when to stop and not to force the issue. He said: "Today's business should have been settled, why don't I treat you to a meal to celebrate?" As soon as he finished speaking, Director Pang regretted it. Just now, he saw Wang Yu arguing with someone, things must not be going smoothly, and if he wanted to invite him to dinner, he should find a good reason.

  As expected, Wang Yu's face didn't look too good, and he only faintly responded with a " Humph! Fine, we won't disturb Director Pang's work anymore. Let's go out and grab something to eat casually. We still need to head back to the company this afternoon."

  Saying so, Wang Yu took a bewildered Xie XiaoXiao and left.

  At this time, the two security guards finally ran over, panting and shouting: "Director Lu, those two sneaky salesmen, how dare they cheat us, just watch me break their legs..."

  Several sharp gazes stared at the security guard. The two security guards couldn't say a word, clearly feeling that the atmosphere was not right.

  "What's wrong now? We've done something wrong again?" A young security guard whispered, "It was clearly Director Lu who made the phone call and told us to chase those two salespeople away."

  Director Pang was pleased, pointing at the canned food factory staff and lecturing: "Ha! I'm really impressed by you people, not recognizing a true Buddha when you see one. What kind of person is Manager Wang? You basically don't understand. If Manager Wang were willing to help you out, you'd be thriving. Never mind, it's pointless explaining this to a group of businesspeople who are blind to the truth. Fine them 5 million, give them ten days to rectify the situation, Little Li, issue them an official fine notice."

  "Hey, didn't you just say the deadline was 15 days?" This time, no matter how hard he begged, he couldn't change Director Pang's mind. Once the formal penalty notice was issued, emotions were irrelevant.

  Little Li, who was issuing the fine, handed the formal penalty receipt to Director Lu and, having received benefits from the canning factory, kindly reminded him: "The male business representative just now is a wealthy second-generation, I heard that he has many friends among the city's officials. He does business purely out of interest, just like some officials like racing cars, some officials like fighting dogs. You've offended him, and you won't have an easy time in the future."

  Lu Chang received the fine receipt, complaining in his mouth, and didn't even notice when the Environmental Protection Bureau's people left. It's hard to run a business, just as the mountain of power has fallen, the Environmental Protection Bureau dares to come up and take a bite. When the mountain of power was still there, who dared to investigate their environmental problems?

  "Big brother, what should we do? Our factory has been busy for half a year and just started working, but we've offended an important person. Otherwise, we can change hands and move to another place?" Manager Lu said worriedly.

  "It's easy to talk, from the initial preparation to building relationships and giving gifts, we've already invested over 20 million. We thought that with the favorable location and policy benefits, we could make a profit. Now, if we sell, we'll lose at least over 10 million... Come on, tomorrow don't do anything else, go to that advertising company, no matter what method you use, you must find that Manager Wang, give our factory's entire advertising business to him, hoping to get in good with his connections."

  "Brother, I understand." Lu Lai Shun nodded firmly, deciding to take the blame tomorrow and apologize sincerely, no matter how much the other person scolded him, he wouldn't retort back because what he did today was too excessive.

  "You don't understand..." Lu Changzhang's funding chain had been broken, and if the factory couldn't operate normally again, all the money he had worked hard for half his life would be gone. But he couldn't tell outsiders, not even his own cousin.
