He said he was having breakfast with Zhao Mingxuan, but in fact he was eating alone.
Because the man with glasses had no appetite at all, the bowl of wontons was not touched. Su Zelin simply took it and finished it to avoid waste. Besides, the man with glasses always had a good appetite, and a bowl of wontons was not enough for him.
Then the two said goodbye. The man with glasses calmed down and went to work, while Su Zelin went straight to the airport and flew back to Lin'an that day.
The news that New Century Television and China Television had reached an agreement on exclusive sponsorship of the Spring Festival Gala spread quickly.
The company's market valuation immediately increased significantly.
Although everyone knows that it is mainly due to superpowers, the fact that New Century Television was able to deal with CTS and persuade them to make an exception and cancel the bidding for this year's Spring Festival Gala and become the exclusive sponsor shows that it has some capabilities.
Many friends in the circle sent congratulatory messages, such as Lao Ma.
"Brother, you are really good at this. New Century is just about to enter the national market, and you come to this big warm-up! By the way, how did CTS agree to your exclusive sponsorship? The exposure rate should be different from the previous Spring Festival Galas. Can you tell me a little bit so that I can learn from it?"
Lao Ma asked half jokingly and half seriously.
He really wanted to know some inside information.
Su Zelin's business methods are very savvy, and occasional communication will benefit both parties.
Of course, it could be a trade secret, so he tested it in a joking way.
If the other party cannot reveal it, they will naturally refuse politely.
Su Zelin smiled and said, "Haha, Brother Ma, it's very simple to explain. First of all, New Century paid 200 million yuan for the sponsorship, and CCTV felt that we were very sincere! As for the exposure content, there are actually three: the midnight time announcement, the placement of advertisements, and three rounds of red envelope rain!"
"Red envelope rain?"
Lao Ma became interested instantly.
He could actually guess the midnight announcement and the advertising placement, but he had no idea what this red envelope rain was.
"On the day of the Spring Festival Gala, New Century and CTS will jointly distribute a total of 88.88 million red envelopes. As long as the audience sends a blessing text message to CTS during the Spring Festival Gala, they can randomly receive a red envelope with a minimum of 88 and a maximum of 8888. With their mobile phone number and official text message, they can make purchases in New Century stores!"
Su Zelin explained casually.
“Great!”
Old Ma couldn't help but applaud.
He is also an old hand, so he can naturally see how good the cooperation plan between New Century and China Television is.
Giving out red envelopes during the Spring Festival is a common practice in the country. It is a festive occasion. CTS does not have to spend a penny and can work together with New Century to give out red envelopes to the people. Naturally, people will not refuse. Moreover, this activity has increased the interaction between the two sides.
The audience was also happy. After all, the text message cost only a dime. If they won, they would make a fortune. If they didn’t win, they could just regard it as a New Year’s blessing to the motherland.
New Century's presence was fully demonstrated in three rounds of red envelope rains, and this exposure method also weakened the vulgar commercial atmosphere.
Kill three birds with one stone and everyone is happy!
"Brother Su, this idea is yours, right?"
Lao Ma admires Hunzi's brain. Not only can he see far, but he also has many creative ideas.
Among the three giants of the New Century, although Yang Fen is also very experienced, there is still a gap between his level and Su Zelin. As for Kang Baohong, it goes without saying that this person is a man who can do practical things, but it is too difficult for him to come up with ideas.
"Haha, it is."
Su Zelin did not deny it, and thought to himself that it was you Internet companies that gave me the inspiration in my previous life.
"Brother Su, your idea is great. It gave Brother Ma a lot of inspiration. I shamelessly borrowed it. During the Chinese New Year, Taojin might give out red envelopes or something."
Even if it is not a sponsorship of the Spring Festival Gala, sending red envelopes can still be a good marketing activity.
In fact, this method is not uncommon. Which online shopping platform doesn’t have red envelopes flying around all day long? Taojin, Jingxi, Suning, Pinxixi, everyone has played the red envelope thing out. But at this time it is a new idea and it is worth learning from.
"It's okay, Brother Ma, I'm honored that you think highly of my ideas!"
Su Zelin is also very generous.
It can be said that it is a matter of mutual reference. Since he has said it, he is not afraid that Lao Ma will use it.
"Okay, thank you in advance. I'll treat you to a meal some other day!"
After congratulating Su Zelin and getting useful insider information, Lao Ma didn't waste any time and quickly hung up the phone.
Then the gangster's phone rang again, and this time the caller was a bit surprising.
Deputy Mayor Zhao, Zhao Mingxuan’s father.
"Su Zelin, Mingxuan called me today and said he broke up with that woman."
Deputy Mayor Zhao never mentioned Niu Rong's name. It can be seen that he was not very satisfied with his son's girlfriend, especially since she claimed that she would never come to Jianglan, which made Deputy Mayor Zhao very unhappy.
After a pause, he continued, "I heard that this is your credit."
Su Zelin chuckled: "I'm sorry, Mayor Zhao, I really broke up the couple and left you without a daughter-in-law in the capital."
"Hey, come on, this kind of daughter-in-law is beyond our reach in the Zhao family. Su Zelin, I have to thank you!"
During the school anniversary, he found Su Zelin and asked him to help persuade Zhao Mingxuan. He didn't expect it to have much effect, but he didn't expect Su Zelin to actually make the two break up. Deputy Mayor Zhao was so happy.
"Mayor Zhao, you are so polite!" Su Zelin coughed dryly, "But then again, my family is planning to open a New Century franchise store in Jianglan, but we can't find a suitable storefront yet. Can you help me find one?"
"You little rascal."
Deputy Mayor Zhao couldn't help but burst out laughing.
"Okay, I owe you a favor, so I'll keep an eye out for you, but I can't guarantee if there's anyone suitable!"
"Then I would like to thank Mayor Zhao first."
"… "
If nothing unexpected happens, before New Year's Eve, except for a few special places, every province and every city will have at least one New Century direct store.
Moreover, New Century's two major moves this year, purchasing a plot of land for 1 billion to build a super headquarters, and the exclusive sponsorship of the Spring Festival Gala with China Television, demonstrated its financial strength. In addition to directly-operated stores, some investors have also applied to open franchise stores, but the number is not large yet.
Before officially performing on the Spring Festival Gala, New Century's reputation was not loud enough in the national market, and potential investors in other provinces except the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Lu regions were still waiting and waiting, intending to see how the business of the directly-operated stores performed before making a decision. However, Su Zelin predicted that franchise stores would also usher in a wave of explosive growth after the new year.
Everything is ready, only the east wind is missing, and we are just waiting for the Spring Festival Gala to arrive.
The Spring Festival has not arrived yet, but the new calendar year, New Year’s Day, has arrived.
However, compared to many companies that take New Year's Day holidays, New Century is not so luxurious.
Now is the busiest time for the company. In addition to Su Zelin, Yang Fen, Kang Baohong, and employees from all departments of the company are also actively preparing for the battle.
This will be one of the most important battles in the new century, and failure will mean death.
If you can't get out the first time, it won't be so easy the second time.
Many well-known enterprises in the province have faced the setback of failing to enter the national market, and then have been unable to recover and have to shrink within the province forever.
The operations department, advertising department, marketing department, finance department, technology department, network department, and even the human resources department are all very busy because they need to recruit a large number of talents due to market expansion.
As time went by, New Century opened more and more direct-operated stores in major provinces and cities. Su Zelin paid attention to the progress every day. Basically, everything went smoothly and there were hardly any major problems.
Therefore, during the New Year's Day holiday, the higher-ups issued an announcement that during this special period, they hope everyone can work overtime and their salaries will be increased to three times the usual amount.
Of course, it is not mandatory for every employee to work overtime.
However, there are very few employees taking vacations.
This company is mostly composed of young people with high energy.
In order to win this battle, everyone worked hard. Influenced by the atmosphere of the entire company, seeing others working overtime, I certainly felt embarrassed to take a vacation at this juncture.
Moreover, anyone who is not too stupid will understand the meaning behind that announcement.
It's said to be voluntary, but if you take a vacation, your superiors will definitely notice it.
It won't be that you will be made difficult by it, but your hopes of climbing up in the future will be slim.
How can you expect to get opportunities if you don't help others when they are in need
If you give up the New Year's Day holiday and give it a try, you might be appreciated by your boss in the future.
Dingsheng Building, New Century Headquarters.
As night fell, the office was still brightly lit. Su Zelin was bent over his desk, looking at documents until his cell phone rang, which brought him back to his senses.
I saw it was Qin Shiqing calling.
My girlfriend went on a business trip yesterday.
As the company's market analyst, Qin Shiqing not only spends all day writing analysis reports at the headquarters, but also has to travel to other provinces from time to time to conduct field research.
Especially now, her analysis report is very important to Su Zelin's decision, so Qin Shiqing works very hard.
After pressing the answer button, the sweet and pleasant voice of my childhood sweetheart came from the microphone.
"Hey, Xiao Linzi, have you eaten yet?"
"No, I'm still at the company."
Su Zelin leaned back in the large leather office chair, feeling very comfortable.
"Why haven't you eaten yet so late? No matter how busy you are, you should also make sure to eat on time. This is not good for your stomach."
Qin Shiqing felt a little distressed.
Su Zelin smiled and said, "It's okay. If my stomach is not good, I will just eat soft rice in the future. Wife, why don't you support me, haha."
"That's nice of you, but I can't afford to support you!"
"Then I'll go find a rich woman."
"Tsk, then go ahead, as long as you have the ability!"
"… "
Although Qin Shiqing was on a business trip these days, the couple would contact each other by phone every day. However, there was usually nothing serious to talk about, they just chatted and joked.
After chatting for a while, Qin Shiqing hung up.
Since Su Zelin was still working overtime, she didn't want to disturb her boyfriend for too long.
He turned his attention back to the document and looked at it for a while. It was almost eight o'clock in the evening, so he stood up and walked out of the office.
There are still many staff members in the operations department who have not left and are all busy with their own work.
Hunzi is very satisfied with the atmosphere of the department.
A good team must have this kind of cohesion and fighting spirit at critical moments.
In addition, a boss will also influence his subordinates.
If you replace him with an operations director who is lazy and works for three days and rests for two days, it would be unrealistic to expect the staff in the department to be self-conscious.
Recently, Hunzi stays in the company until very late after get off work every day. Seeing him leading by example, other employees naturally feel a sense of urgency.
When I passed by Yan Qiuwen's office, I found that the female consultant was also there.
But Su Zelin was not surprised.
Yan Qiuwen is one of the most special employees in the company. There is definitely no restriction on overtime for her. Such a genius is what any company dreams of. It is good enough that others are willing to work in a developing company like his. Su Zelin dare not ask for too much.
However, the female consultant also came to work every day during the New Year's Day period, and sometimes stayed late after get off work.
Su Zelin walked in and asked, "Qiu Wen, you haven't left yet?"
"Well, there's nothing to do at home. I just happened to have some things on hand that I haven't finished yet, so I'll stay in the company for a while."
Yan Qiuwen's gaze stayed on the computer screen, and her ten fingers, as white as chopped green onions, tapped on the keyboard so quickly that afterimages were almost left. Her typing speed was comparable to that of Kato Lin, who practiced pen spinning all day long.
Su Zelin suddenly noticed that her pretty face was very red, especially flushed, and couldn't help but be slightly startled: "Qiu Wen, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong?"
Yan Qiuwen frowned.
"Your face is red."
Su Zelin couldn't help but stretch out his hand and press it on her smooth jade-like forehead.
"What are you doing?"
Yan Qiuwen's face turned even redder.
"Qiu Wen, you have a fever!"
His hands were burning hot, and Su Zelin quickly came to a conclusion.
"It's okay, I'll just prescribe some antipyretic medicine later."
Yan Qiuwen disagrees.
"Idiot, why are you working overtime when you have a fever? And your fever seems to be quite severe. You need to go to the hospital immediately. Come on, I'll take you there!"
Su Zelin pulled Yan Qiuwen out of the office without saying anything.
Yan Qiuwen struggled subconsciously, but failed to break free, so she just let the gangster do it.
He took Yan Qiuwen to the underground parking lot and drove straight to the Municipal People's Hospital, which was the Grade A hospital where he was hospitalized in the last car accident.
When I took my temperature in the emergency department, it was 41 degrees, so I had to get an IV drip right away.
Su Zelin couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Qiu Wen, you have such a high fever, don't you feel anything at all?"
Yan Qiuwen curled her lips and said, "I just felt my face was a little hot all of a sudden. I thought it was a low-grade fever, so I didn't take it seriously."
"This is 40 degrees. Do you know what the consequences of a high fever of this degree are?"
The gangster's face looked serious.
"Yes, this is a case of high fever, which can cause increased intracranial pressure and damage to the brain. Severe patients may even experience coma or febrile convulsions."
Su Zelin: “…”
Are you Baidu Encyclopedia? You know everything.
The bastard shook his head and said, "You know that a high fever can cause damage to the brain, but you are still so careless."
"It's fine if it's damaged. Being too smart is not a good thing for a woman. Being a little dumb is not a bad thing."
Yan Qiuwen suddenly blurted out this sentence, which made Su Zelin a little confused.
He knew that the female counselor was always proud of her wisdom.
Is Qiu Wen really delirious due to the fever
…
