The next day was a beautiful early winter morning.
Jiang Qin came downstairs to the dormitory to get in touch with the dormitory manager, Aunt Li, and to test her willingness to work part-time.
When the aunt heard that she could earn double the income for sitting in the dormitory for the same day, she was very happy, so she opened up and began to chatter non-stop. However, as she chatted, she tended to talk about family matters and the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, which made Jiang Qin a little unbearable.
"Jiang Qin, when you find a wife in the future, you must find a good one. Don't be greedy for beauty. The prettier she is, the more cunning she is and the more likely she is to fight with your mother."
"What about the good and pretty one?"
"Haha, how can that be possible? Did you drink alcohol in the morning?"
Jiang Qin stood up without comment, stretched his legs and feet, and thought that this auntie was really good at chatting. If he had known earlier, he would have called Guo Zihang over and let him give full play to his strengths.
Love can easily make people blind. Once your aunt is happy, she might not even want to mention you.
He said goodbye to the dormitory manager and planned to go to the cafeteria to have breakfast, but as soon as he sat down, he received an angry call from Lu Xuemei.
"Boss, we may be too late for our promotional materials."
"Why is it too late?" Jiang Qin wondered.
Lu Xuemei yelled, "Shengshi said they had too many orders this month and wanted to delay the delivery by two days. I said no, and they said there was nothing they could do, so I could get a refund if I had the guts!"
"Boss Li is so arrogant. Did he win the lottery?"
December is the golden time for sales promotions, because the winter solstice, Christmas Eve, Christmas, and even New Year's Day, all kinds of festivals are crowded in this time period, causing many shopping malls and stores to take advantage of this time to engage in large-scale marketing.
In order to meet deadlines, Shengshi Advertising Factory has been working overtime every day recently, with the lights on until 11 o'clock at night.
Two-thirds of the materials needed to launch the group buying app have been completed, but Shengshi has been reluctant to start work on the remaining one-third.
Lu Xuemei ran back and forth three times, but was always delayed for various reasons. This time she really couldn't stand it anymore.
Jiang Qin was not surprised after hearing this, because this is a common trick used by many factories.
We’ll do a part for you first so you feel it’s done quickly and you won’t be able to cancel the order.
The saved time can be used to complete part of other orders, creating the same effect, thereby taking on the business volume that exceeds production capacity.
But at this critical juncture, such practices are purely a waste of time. Shengshi Advertising’s service was quite good before, so why did it resort to such a despicable trick this time
"We are old customers of Shengshi. Logically, this shouldn't happen. Is there any other reason?"
"Yes, the factory director of Shengshi has been replaced. The new one is a complete snob. He didn't take me seriously when he saw that I was a college student, but he wanted to call anyone driving a luxury car "dad".
“Is Audi a luxury car?”
"He drives an Audi himself."
Jiang Qin took a few bites of rice and felt that in order to ensure the smooth launch of the group buying, he should use more powerful measures. So after finishing his meal, he went straight to the Cuizhu community opposite and called Uncle Gong to help.
The black car with wings sped along the road and arrived at the gate of Shengshi Advertising in a blink of an eye.
"Uncle Gong, push in and park right in front of his workshop!"
"no problem!"
After Uncle Gong finished speaking, he stepped on the accelerator and rushed into the Shengshi Advertising factory, standing directly at the main entrance of the workshop, looking very majestic.
"That's great. Thank you, Uncle Gong. I have to trouble you to come here so early in the morning."
"Master Jiang, ever since you bought the car, I've felt a little guilty about getting paid, so it would be great if I could help you.
The car window opened, Jiang Qin waved his hand, called Lu Xuemei over and asked her to get in the car. Lu Xuemei didn't know that her boss had a Bentley and a driver, and her eyes were full of shock.
Oh my god, what big thighs!
Lu Xuemei reached out to touch it, but this action was accurately captured by Uncle Gong through the rearview mirror. His face changed and he immediately coughed twice, stopping Lu Xuemei from taking any further action.
It was past eight in the morning. The workers who had just finished their lunch rushed to work and found that the workshop was blocked by cars. They couldn't get in after swaying left and right. When they saw the car logo, they didn't dare to say anything. They had to reach for their mobile phones to call the factory manager.
When the newly appointed factory director heard that a car was blocking the workshop door, he rushed over in a hurry to scold the person. However, after entering the workshop, he was stunned for a moment, then put on a smiling face and reached out to knock on the car window.
The first time they knocked, Jiang Qin didn't move at all, and Lu Xuemei didn't dare to act rashly either.
The second time he knocked, Jiang Qin still pretended not to hear.
It was not until the third knock that Jiang Qin opened the car door and came out with a bright smile on his face.
"Director Chen, right? I heard that the orders from college students are not important. If you have the ability, just cancel the order. Don't you care? You are really a new official who makes three fires upon taking office. I am really scared."
"No, that must be the nonsense that the workers below said!"
"That's what I said. Which son of a bitch would say something like that? Is he out of his mind?"
Director Chen swallowed his saliva, looked at Bentley and then at Uncle Gong, smiling without refutation.
A Bentley alone is not scary, but a Bentley with a driver is scary, and this car has a license plate from another place, so it is impossible that it was rented temporarily.
The next things were much easier. The new factory manager ordered the workshop to start work, giving priority to producing group buying advertisements. He also asked many questions, wanting to know Jiang Qin's background.
However, Jiang Qin did not give him face. He put away his smile after confirming that the group buying advertisement entered the production process.
Some people are like this, they respond to harsh treatment but not soft treatment. If you speak to them in a nice tone, it will make them feel like they are so great.
"Director Chen, where is your former Director Li?"
"Director Li is my brother-in-law, and I am his brother-in-law. He had something to do at home, so he went back first and asked me to keep an eye on it. I am the acting director."
Jiang Qin felt relieved after hearing this and did not ask any more questions.
To be honest, if this advertising company really replaced this guy as the director, he would have to consider choosing a new partner. However, since it is just an agent, there is no need to consider this matter for the time being.
Jiang Qin suddenly remembered something: "Do you have any advertising hats here?"
"Yes, we have baseball caps made of cotton, canvas, and acrylic. We have all kinds of colors and styles." Director Chen immediately asked someone to bring a stack of samples.
“Can you make me a batch of yellow ones with the group buying logo printed on them?”
"how much do you need?"
"Let's start with 100. We'll deliver them together with the advertising materials tomorrow, saving you from having to make an extra trip."
"… "
Director Chen wanted to say that it was too rushed and asked if it could be delayed for a few days. However, when he thought that the other party came to him just because he kept procrastinating, he quickly swallowed his words.
He had indeed just taken over the factory affairs and was not very familiar with the factory's customers. He was sarcastic to Lu Xuemei only because she was a college student and looked easy to bully.
But if he really helped his brother-in-law offend a big client, he would definitely have his legs broken.
"Boss, what do we need hats for?"
"The group purchase will be launched the day after tomorrow. At that time, with the promotional activities and mall discounts, the whole campus will be filled with deliverymen wearing little yellow hats. Doesn't it sound exciting? Even stray cats and dogs will have to stop and take a few more glances, right?"
After listening to his description, Lu Xuemei thought about it and found it was indeed very exciting: "But... can there be so many orders?"
Jiang Qin smiled and said, "If there are no orders, the delivery staff will run around empty-handed to create a false prosperity. This is also a way to increase trust."
"So that's how it is..."
"Xuemei, you stay here and watch over it today. Don't stop the work after we leave. If you feel thirsty, go to Director Chen's office and have some tea."
Director Chen nodded with a smile on his face, and his tone towards Lu Xuemei became much more polite.
Afterwards, Jiang Qin left Shengshi Advertising and originally planned to go back to school directly, but after thinking about it, he felt that he had finally invited Uncle Gong out and did not want to waste this opportunity, so he decided to go to Wanzhong Mall.
He Yijun always felt that he was trying to cheat people, and even the agreement was signed just last night. If he went there in a Bentley to show off, he should be able to win some trust.
At the very least, let Lao He know that his background is also very scary and he will not easily set a trap for his partners to fall into.
However, Jiang Qin arrived at an unfortunate time as he happened to see He Yijun disciplining his high school daughter. He could hear the quarrel from a long distance away.
He smacked his lips and thought to himself that it would be best to get out of here, as family affairs were no place for outsiders to interfere. However, when Boss He heard that he was coming, he immediately dragged his daughter to the meeting room.
"Did you see it?"
"What do you want me to see?"
"This is the Jiang Qin from Linchuan University that I told you about. A few days ago, he won the first place in the first school-wide learning competition of Linchuan University and became the first learning star in the history of Linchuan University. Can you learn from him? And pass the exam to show off to your father?"
"???"
Jiang Qin's mouth was crooked, and he thought to himself, Mr. He, you remember it so damn clearly. I can't even say it coherently if you ask me to say it again, but you can say it fluently.
No wonder Dong Wenhao and Wei Lanlan had such awkward expressions when they left the crowd that day. Not to mention them, even Jiang Qin himself felt awkward when he heard it.
"What? Study Star? I'm also Mother of Ultra!"
He Yijun's daughter is quite pretty, with bangs, long hair, and is about 1.65 meters tall. But she has a somewhat eccentric personality. She doesn't like to look people in the eye, and you can tell at first glance that she is in her typical rebellious period.
When she heard about the award for studying and passing the exam, the little girl immediately went crazy. "Wouldn't it be like killing me to pass the exam?" She kicked the door open and ran out.
"Please forgive me, Mr. Jiang. I'm usually too busy and don't have time to take care of her. Now she is becoming more and more disobedient." He Yijun smiled awkwardly and walked over to sit down.
Jiang Qin waved his hand calmly: "It's okay, I won't laugh."
"What do you want to talk to me about today?"
"I just want to tell Mr. He that the trophy for the Study Star is quite heavy."
After listening to this, He Yijun nodded and said, "Of course, knowledge is the most important thing in this world!"
The corner of Jiang Qin's mouth twitched, and he thought, if I had known that this award meant so much to you, I would not have come here.
