Wen Liang was very upset about being drafted. He knew that it was useless to tell Teacher Yang about it, so he went to the principal's office before school was over, and blocked Zhang Yihan in the room. Principal Zhang was also quite troubled by Secretary Wen's son. He listened to his purpose with a smile and said, "This is a good thing. It means that your achievements, Wen Liang, have been unanimously recognized by teachers and classmates. Besides, representing No. 1 Middle School in the competition is an honor for you and the school. I think you should not refuse..."
"Principal, I really feel that I am not capable enough and I am afraid that I will bring shame to No. 1 Middle School..."
Before he could finish his words, Zhang Yihan interrupted him with a smile, saying, "I've heard other teachers mention you many times, you have a quick mind, you're smart, you have a method for learning, and you can achieve twice the result with half the effort in everything you do. Don't be so modest."
Wen Liang is a very self-aware person. With his style in school, I'm afraid other teachers come to the principal to complain more and praise less. How can they not hear the hidden meaning of Zhang Yihan's words? A flexible mind means restlessness, learning twice the result with half the effort means being late and absent too many times. After all, he is the boss of No. 1 Middle School, so he can't be too clear. In other words, you kid makes so many troubles every day, I have wiped the ass that I should clean up, and I have taken the thunder that I should take. This time, just listen to me honestly!
Wen Liang had a bitter face and was about to try again, but Zhang Yihan straightened his face and said with dignity, "Wen Liang, you should know that the provincial education department personally issued a notice for this national competition, and the municipal bureau also held a special meeting, requiring all middle schools to actively respond and to organize the best students to participate. After all, you are the top student in the first year of high school, and Director Zuo has also shown concern for your studies many times. If you are not on the list submitted, I am afraid it will be difficult to explain to them."
Wen Liang finally understood why Zhang Yihan wanted him to participate. It turned out that he wanted to flatter Zuo Yuxi. You know, this kind of national competition is not only a great exercise, but also has extra points in the college entrance examination if the students get outstanding results and win awards. So no matter whether the students are willing or not, parents are trying their best to let their children participate. It is also for this reason that Zhang Yihan knows that Zuo Yuxi pays more attention to Wen Liang, and he also understands Wen Liang's lazy nature, so he happily issued an administrative order that the top students in each class must register.
Wen Liang was so upset that he wanted to cry. Although he had countless ways to make Zhang Yihan obey him, he was a student of No. 1 Middle School after all, and he couldn't be too presumptuous in front of the principal. Especially since the principal had explained so earnestly, he had already lowered his attitude. If he continued to push Zhang Yihan's nose, it would be unacceptable.
"Okay, I'll listen to Principal Zhang, but can I not participate in the daily training?"
Wen Liang figured that since he had been tricked into taking the competition anyway, he might as well make the best of it and wait to enter the examination room. He didn't have to go to intensive training every day like he was going to work - what fun would it be to be with a bunch of academic masters? Besides, he didn't have the time.
Zhang Yihan hesitated for a moment. After all, for the sake of Secretary General Wen and Director Zuo, he couldn't push too hard. He said, "That's fine. You don't have to come from Monday to Friday nights, but you must attend on Saturday and Sunday. You also know that the competition is too difficult. If you don't practice some special questions, you will be at a disadvantage during the exam. Okay, it's settled. I have something else to do. You go back first!"
Wen Liang had seldom dealt with Zhang Yihan before, and only knew that he was well-known in the education system. Today, when he met him, he found that he was indeed an old fox, slippery and flawless, and could make people obey him with just a few words. He was indeed an educator, and his skills were very high!
"Thank you very much for your care over the past year!"
Wen Liang complimented him before he left. Zhang Yihan smiled and said, "Student Wen Liang, I also have to thank you for supporting the school's work!"
After coming out of the principal's office, the school bell rang. Wen Liang did not go back to the classroom. He thought about what happened between him and Ye Yuting today. No matter if he couldn't help himself and lost control, or it was a coincidence, he could not pretend that nothing had happened. After hesitating for a moment, he turned around and went to the Foreign Affairs Office.
The Foreign Affairs Office was empty; the teachers must have all left. Wen Liang breathed a sigh of relief, not knowing whether he felt relieved or disappointed. Anyway, he felt a little complicated.
Of course, he was full of affection for Ye Yuting, and occasionally he would be fascinated by her beauty and make some irrational actions. In particular, they had a very ambiguous relationship, and Wen Liang had even seen her naked body in the bath, but the problem was that Ye Yuting was not only his teacher, but also Zuo Yuxi's sister.
Wen Liang has never been a gentleman, but he is not a lustful person whose mind is filled with lust. He will not fantasize about having a double sex with his sisters. So this point alone is a huge mountain that is difficult to overcome, and it makes it even more difficult to handle the relationship between the two.
There will always be a way when you reach the mountain, so just take it one step at a time!
Wen Liang sighed, took out his cell phone and called Li Shengli, Si Yajing and Tan Xue respectively to arrange a meeting place. He looked back at the desk, and the scene in the morning seemed to come back to him again, the greasy breathing, the white thighs, and his heart actually moved slightly.
The meeting with Li Shengli and others was for the upcoming promotional activities of Qinghe Soy Milk. Now that the central kitchen has been officially put into use and has been running normally after a period of adjustment, the time for large-scale expansion has finally arrived.
I have been waiting for this day for a whole year!
The four met in a teahouse. Wen Liang did not explain too much. He just listened to the reports of the three people and then delegated the power to them. Now Qinghe is basically divided into three parts. Li Shengli is in charge of the overall situation, Si Yajing is in charge of production, and Tan Xue is in charge of the market. The three of them cooperate well and work closely together. In the days when Wen Liang and Ning Xi gradually faded out, they not only did not shrink back, but took various measures to actively expand the market, improve work efficiency by strengthening internal management, improve food technology to reduce production costs, integrate information resources to simplify the distribution process, and strive for excellence in store image, smiling service, feedback and other aspects. They have also thoroughly implemented the basic principles of simplification, standardization and specialization of the Sprinciples. The company's people are stable and full of energy. Therefore, in the face of the aggressive offensive of the Kuaiyouduo chain catering company, they did not fall behind, but always maintained a leading position and have an excellent reputation and recognition in the Qingzhou market.
But these are far from enough. The Qinghe that Wen Liang wants is not to dominate a corner of a place, nor to be a small-scale player in a province or city, but to be able to shoulder the heavy responsibility of promoting Chinese catering to the world in the future and become a behemoth that is no less than Yum! Brands.
Of course, this is just a dream and a goal. Today, Qinghe is just an insignificant ant, but as long as the ant takes the first step, it will eventually become the Great Wall!
“… In May, we will continue to accelerate the pace of opening stores in Qingzhou, and strive to reach 25 stores by the end of May, basically covering the entire city and leaving no blind spots.”
“… At the same time, we will launch the urban cluster strategy in Qingzhou, Guanshan and Lingyang, and prepare to open ten direct-sale stores in Guanshan and Lingyang respectively within two to three months.”
“… The central kitchen further accelerates the research and development process, combining the characteristics of Guanshan and Lingyang to develop food that suits the tastes of local people.”
“… The store location and staff training are strictly in accordance with the company’s prescribed procedures, with a population of 300,000 as the base, a flow of 20,000 people as the standard, and a commercial and residential area with a radius of two hours’ drive as the primary choice.”
After everyone introduced themselves, Li Shengli added, "In addition, we need to strengthen publicity and marketing. After all, Qingzhou is our home ground, and we can slowly increase our popularity through word of mouth. However, in Guanshan and Lingyang, we may not have this advantage, nor may we have this time. Mr. Wen, this is the recent promotion plan jointly made by the marketing, planning, advertising and other departments according to your instructions last time. Kang Sheng and Mao Lihua have worked hard on it. Please take a look..."
Wen Liang took it and roughly glanced through it, nodded and said, "Yes, the trinity of TV, newspapers and outdoor advertising has at least created momentum, especially the 'Celebrating May Day, Ten Stores Promotions and Rewards' combined with the carriage parade is even more remarkable. However, the idea is still too narrow. This time we not only want to make a name for ourselves in Qingzhou, but most importantly, pave the way for entering Guanshan and Lingyang. Therefore, advertising should be placed not only in urban areas, but also in provincial media, such as the prime time of Jiangdong Provincial Channel 1 and Channel 2. We can go and talk about it..."
When Wen Liang started talking, Li Shengli had already taken out a notebook from his pocket, and then the pen that he always kept in his jacket pocket, and quickly wrote down his words. This was not flattery, but a habit that he had developed over the years. In particular, the most common practice of township entrepreneurs, putting a pen in their jacket pockets, had been criticized by Wen Liang several times, but he just couldn't change it.
Although Tan Xue is only the manager of the marketing department now, Li Shengli intends to give her more responsibilities, and basically the publicity part is also given to her. After hearing Wen Liang's suggestions, she criticized herself and said, "I didn't do my job well and didn't consider it carefully enough."
Wen Liang didn't want his business to grow bigger and bigger, but he didn't want to be away from his former friends. That's why he didn't go to the company but met the three people in the teahouse outside. He smiled and said, "I am also filling in the gaps based on the results of your labor. There is a saying that goes, this is called standing on the shoulders of giants!"
Everyone smiled. After these days of training, Si Yajing's temperament has become better than before. She is full of office lady style in her every move. She said, "I'm afraid the price asked by the provincial station is..."
Wen Liang waved his hand and said, "Let Mao Lihua negotiate. With her ability and connections, it will be no problem for her to negotiate a suitable price. Besides, it doesn't matter if the price is really high. We can't save this money. Once the advertisement is popular, it will be worth a fortune. Let's not say that every day a Santana drives into the provincial station and a Mercedes drives out, at least a bicycle drives in and a motorcycle drives out!"
Ji Chang of Lingqu Liquor had just won the bid last year, and he was in high spirits. Someone asked him how he felt about winning the bid. His boast that he drove a Santana into CCTV and drove a Mercedes out every day soon became popular. So Wen Liang used it as a joke, which immediately caused another round of laughter.
However, after hearing Wen Liang pick Mao Lihua, Li Shengli couldn't help but say, "Mao Lihua is really the best candidate for advertising. She is very good at socializing and is very thorough in speaking and doing things. I really admire you and President Ning. How did you know she was a talent at first sight?"
Ning Xi was able to personally promote Mao Lihua to the position of advertising manager after a conversation, which showed that she had an unusually sharp vision. Wen Liang took advantage of his rebirth and knew some of Mao Lihua's past and present, so he felt a little embarrassed when he heard Li Shengli's heartfelt praise. However, he was thick-skinned enough to laugh and say, "A cone in a bag does not hide its benefits. Gold will always shine!"
These words made Li Shengli look up to him. Wen Liang was afraid that he would flatter him again, so he quickly moved on to the next topic and said, "If it is broadcast on the provincial TV station, your original plan is a bit unsuitable. Just a few static pictures and a slogan seem monotonous and shabby. In my opinion, it is better to invite a professional production team to design the script and scene, shoot a beautiful TV commercial, and broadcast it in major media in turn. The effect should be better and more shocking!"
Li Shengli said with embarrassment: "We have actually considered this, but Qingzhou lacks resources in this area. I have consulted Guanshan, and the price is not only high, but the quality of the samples is not much better..."
Wen Liang had already made plans, and said, "Leave the filming of the commercial to me, and you guys focus on other aspects of the work and pay attention to coordination and cooperation. By the way, I will be staying in Qingzhou recently, so please keep in touch if there is anything."
After finishing the business, Wen Liang looked at his watch and said, "It's getting late. Everyone is busy. I won't keep you for dinner. Let's go!"
When they arrived outside the teahouse, Li Shengli drove away with Tan Xue first. Si Yajing was also ready to leave by car, but was kept by Wen Liang, who said it was on his way. In fact, everyone knew it, but no one pointed it out.
Si Yajing sat in the Toyota car with a red face and didn't say anything. Wen Liang knew that she was young and said with a smile: "It's okay. If they dare to laugh at you, I will make things difficult for them!"
(Rabindranath Tagore - When you commanded me to sing, my heart seemed to burst with pride, I looked up at your face, tears welled up in my eyes.
In my socket.
All the bitterness and contradictions in my life melted into a sweet harmony—
My praise is like a joyful bird, fluttering its wings across the ocean.
I know you enjoy my singing. I know it is only because I am a singer that I can come before you.
With the outstretched wings of my song I have touched your feet, which I never dared to hope to touch.
Intoxicated by the song, I forgot myself. You were my master, but I called you my friend.
I know not how thou singest, my lord! I always listen in wonder.
The radiance of your music illuminates the world. The breath of your music permeates the heavens.
The holy spring of your music rushes forward, breaking through all the rocks that block it. (To be continued)
