Chapter seven hundred and fifty-ninth meeting
The manager of the South China branch of 126 paging station is named Lu Xunnan. He is in his thirties and graduated from a prestigious university.
He became a prince at a young age, so he should be proud of himself, but in fact, his life was not easy.
Although the 126 paging station is supported by Big Brother Telecom, since pagers became popular in China, paging companies have sprung up all over the country.
Everyone is competing for each other's customers, and their eyes are red in order to get a bigger piece of the cake in the market.
Even within telecommunications, there are different voices. Some people say that manual paging stations are too troublesome, and the wages of paging ladies account for a lot of operating costs. It is better to build a 127 automatic paging station. Internal competition is also beneficial to the market.
Lu Xunnan took office as the manager of the South China Branch less than half a year ago. Within these few months, he could only barely set up the company's framework. As for the outstanding performance, there was no outstanding performance.
When he received the call from Jiang Hua, he was very excited. He had heard about Mr. Jiang's name for a long time. He was definitely a famous figure in the south.
He didn't expect that the famous Mr. Jiang would enter the communications field, and he inquired about the background of Beidou Star Communications, which shocked him even more. It was actually a military-civilian cooperation enterprise.
In the evening, Lu Xunnan arrived at a private room in a restaurant half an hour earlier than the agreed time.
After entering the restaurant, he walked directly to the front desk, took out two thousand yuan from his wallet, handed it to the cashier girl and said: "I bought the order first, and I will refund the extra money and make up for the less."
In fact, Jiang Hua originally said on the phone that he would pay for the meal, but Lu Xunnan didn't dare to let Jiang Hua treat him, so he rushed to buy the meal before the other party came over.
"Manager Lu, if you advance money directly like this, the company can't reimburse you."
A young man in a suit and leather shoes stood next to Lu Xunnan and said.
He is Lu Xunnan's assistant Xiao Chen. He just graduated from college this year. After being recruited by Telecom, he was directly assigned to the South China branch of the 126 paging station.
"If you can repay it, then repay it. If you can't repay it, just treat it as my private treat."
Lu Xunnan gritted his teeth and said.
Even though he is the manager of a branch, his salary is not that high. It is actually quite painful for him to pay two thousand yuan for a treat.
But Mr. Jiang, whom he had an appointment with, was an important guest. If he could establish a relationship with him, he felt that his career would not be so difficult.
"Manager Lu, before I came here just now, Xiao Min handed me a letter of resignation. She was poached by another company as a foreman."
Assistant Xiao Chen hesitated and said.
Xiao Min is the business model of the South China Branch. The paging girls in her group have always been among the best in performance.
"I have told the superiors before that I wanted to increase the performance commission, but the superiors have always refused to approve it. Now it's okay. Several of the company's business backbones have all been poached by others."
Lu Xunnan was indignant.
In a paging company, the work efficiency of the paging girls directly determines the performance of the company. Experienced paging girls can answer more calls and complete more business targets within a unit of time, no matter where they are.
They are all treasures.
"Manager Lu, let me tell you something that I shouldn't say. Although our company is backed by a big tree, our work system is rigid. In terms of business, it is far less flexible than those of small companies."
When Assistant Xiao Chen was assigned to the South China Branch, he was once satisfied with his ambitions, but now he feels that it is really difficult to do something in a state-owned enterprise.
"Okay, let's stop talking about these annoying things. Mr. Jiang will be here soon, so be sure to cheer up."
Lu Xunnan attaches great importance to this cooperation with Jianghua.
Whether their South China branch can turn around depends on whether Mr. Jiang, who is shrouded in countless mysterious auras, can surprise him.
"Coming, coming."
Assistant Xiao Chen saw a luxurious black car parked in front of the restaurant.
Jiang Hua opened the car door, told the driver to pick him up in a moment, and then got off the car with Yang Ying.
"Mr. Jiang, nice to meet you."
Lu Xunnan looked enthusiastic, stretched out his hands, and walked down the steps.
"Mr. Lu, let me introduce you, this is Manager Yang of our Beidou Star Communications."
Jiang Hua shook hands with the other party and pointed to Yang Ying beside him to introduce.
"Hello, Manager Yang."
Lu Xunan greeted him warmly.
The two parties exchanged pleasantries and walked towards the private room they had booked early in the morning.
"Knowing that Mr. Jiang likes to be clean, I only brought my assistant Xiao Chen here. I hope Mr. Jiang won't be too lazy."
Lu Xunnan said very politely.
"I came to your 126 paging station to discuss cooperation, not to drink with you. It is easier to discuss things when there are fewer people."
Jiang Hua didn't mind at all.
"Mr. Jiang, regarding cooperation, you just gave a general outline on the phone before. Can you talk about it in detail?"
After entering the private room, Lu Xunnan asked the waiter to serve tea and couldn't wait to ask about the specific cooperation project.
"Mr. Lu, before we get down to business, let me ask a side question. Your 126 paging South China branch has been established for more than half a year. How is the current turnover?"
Jiang Hua picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea.
"It's in a period of rapid growth."
Lu Xunnan hesitated for a moment and answered awkwardly.
It was a bit embarrassing to give the specific turnover, so he could only answer like this.
Even though he holds the title of South China Region Manager, he seems to be able to manage a large area. In fact, as a Region Manager, he is very talented.
The water in the state-owned enterprise is too deep. If you don’t swim in it, you have no idea what is hidden under the water.
The city with the most prosperous paging industry in the south is Shenzhen City. After all, it is a special economic zone. If you throw ten bricks, you can hit eight bosses.
It's annoying to say that although Shenzhen City also belongs to South China, the 126 paging branch there has independent revenue and is not under his control.
Yangcheng's paging business was second only to Shenzhen City, and was the runner-up in performance last year. The boss of the branch there had a strong background and deep connections, and he also did not take him as the regional manager seriously.
In addition, the competition in the paging station business is fierce, and as the manager of the South China Region, he is very frustrated.
"Manager Lu, I plan to launch a pager that can check stocks. This requires your paging station to open corresponding value-added services."
Jiang Hua noticed his expression and stopped beating around the bush and said straight to the point.
"Paging machines can actually increase this kind of business. Does this require cooperation from the securities market?"
Lu Xunnan was shocked at first, and then suddenly became excited.
Since the opening of the Shanghai Securities Exchange, domestic stock investors have popped up one after another like leeks.
If he can catch the wind of the stock market, his performance this year will be absolutely stable, and he will no longer have to worry about being pushed down at any time.
"Don't worry about the securities market. I'm just asking if you can get it done as soon as possible. I know that your state-owned enterprises have many rules and long procedures. If you need to file a report and ask for instructions, then I will find another company to cooperate."
Jiang Hua looked at him with bright eyes.
"I can!"
Chapter completed!
