Chapter 343: Angry at reporters, cute and cute online again!
"Regarding the national trend, I can think of three major areas."
Zhang Shuo continued his performance.
"The first is to support those national fashion brands that have declined or are not developing smoothly, such as Zhenxiang instant noodles, Huili shoes, Feiyue shoes, Hongxing Yike, Jianlibao, Arctic Ocean, Fenghuang brand, Dabao, etc."
Many of these national brands have been squeezed out by foreign capital or frozen after hostile takeovers.
There may not have been a chance to rise again before, but Zhang Shuo knows that as time goes by, the national consciousness of Chinese people will become more and more awakened, and they will become more and more recognized for national brands.
As long as modernization is carried out, success will be achieved.
As the same saying goes, it is difficult to make a good product, but it is even harder to make a good brand. These brands carry many childhood memories of those born in the 1970s and 1980s.
The intangible brand value is absolutely inestimable.
"The second is to pay attention to the newly emerging national fashion brands or trends, such as Hanfu, bronze products, Longquan swords, etc., which are all industries or brands with great potential."
Especially for Hanfu, the future market size is absolutely full of imagination.
Zhang Shuo doesn't know anything else, but what he has observed is that in the next few years, among the styles of skirts worn by children, Hanfu or imitation Hanfu styles will account for an increasing proportion.
really.
To cultivate national fashion taste, you have to start from childhood.
"The third is new cultural creation."
“What is new cultural creativity?”
Du Qingqing and others could still understand the first two, but not the last one.
have to.
Another new word invented by the big boss.
"New cultural creation is a cultural production method with IP construction as the core in the context of the new era. For example, the Forbidden City is actually a super IP in the cultural field, but its potential commercial value has not been fully explored."
"Forbidden City, super IP?"
Du Qingqing and others were even more confused and still didn't understand.
"The simplest thing is, for example, if there is an antique lipstick with the main color of Forbidden City coral red and a classic sachet design, would you be willing to buy it?" Zhang Shuo asked with a smile.
"This seems interesting?"
When it comes to lipstick, Du Qingqing's eyes light up, and she seems to have captured the essence of new cultural creation in one fell swoop.
"Really? To put it bluntly, it is to use modern design and packaging techniques to bring new life to the classical cultural symbols hidden in the pile of old papers." Zhang Shuo explained.
Speaking of which, this is still Tengda’s original creation.
It is said that the Forbidden City later flourished in the new cultural and creative field because of the guidance of the Second Master.
At this point, I still have to give Tengda a thumbs up.
"Mr. Zhang, will the Guochao Plan Support Fund be run by Germinal Investment?" Lu Kai asked.
"No!"
Zhang Shuo shook his head, "In order to be closer to the market and to cooperate with Pinxixi's development strategy, this fund should be directly allocated to Pinxixi for operation. Of course, the Group's Investment and M&A Department can play a guiding role."
"good!"
Lu Kai didn't say anything else, he just felt that the big boss really liked Du Zong.
Just took office.
Being able to control a three billion industry support fund is really enviable.
Including the acquisition of Baishi and the expected acquisition of Durban in the future, Pinxixi has just started, and Germination Group is expected to spend nearly 10 billion in funds, which is really crazy.
After the meeting, Zhang Shuo personally led Du Qingqing to Pinxixi E-commerce to take up his post.
Not to mention this.
………
Wednesday, September 19th.
Two days later, just as the pre-sales of Maili X1 exceeded one million units, Zhang Shuo left for Jiangcheng on a business trip. At 4:30 p.m., he landed at Jiangcheng Airport with Du Qingqing and his entourage.
It was still Jiang Shan who took the opportunity.
There was another person following Jiang Shan. After Jiang Shan introduced him, it was Vice President Qin of the Jiangchuan branch of the group. He licked his face and said, "Mr. Zhang, the leaders of Jiangcheng know you are coming and have already set up a banquet at Linjiang Restaurant."
"Um?"
Zhang Shuo glanced at Jiang Shan, who looked helpless.
"Didn't I say before I came that I didn't need to reveal my itinerary? Why did Jiangcheng get the news again? Didn't the President's Office give me any warning before I came?"
"No, it was Vice President Qin who revealed the news to Jiang Cheng."
Jiang Shan quickly clarified that she was very aware of the big boss's nature and usually did not like to socialize.
"Vice President Qin?"
"Zhang, Mr. Zhang, someone from the Jiangcheng City Government asked me about it. I thought it was hard to refuse, so I just mentioned it." Vice President Qin quickly explained.
"very good!"
Zhang Shuo's face was expressionless, "I'll go to the finance department to settle my salary tomorrow."
"Ah, ah?"
Vice President Qin stood frozen on the spot, his expression suddenly becoming helpless.
Jiang Shan was gloating over the misfortune, but her face was calm and her heart was trembling.
Although the big boss has a gentle attitude, once he gets angry, it will be like an autumn wind sweeping away the fallen leaves. Poor Vice President Qin just met the big boss and thought he was going to make a career, but in the end he was kicked out.
Well deserved!
In the workplace, I still can't tell the difference between the big and the small. Who pays him the salary?
How dare you leak the big boss's itinerary without permission.
maybe.
Vice President Qin also thought he was very smart. Through some gossips, he had won over the city government and made his own personal connections. It could be said that he had both sides.
Little did I know.
The reason why the city government is willing to deal with him is not because of his strong personal communication skills, but because it wants to establish a relationship with Bu Ya.
Without the platform of Germination, he is nothing.
………
Needless to say, the dinner party in the evening was extremely boring and was just a meandering.
This is also the reason why Zhang Shuo concealed his itinerary.
After the meal was over and he came out of the hotel, Zhang Shuo glanced at Du Qingqing and said with a smile: "You're not full, are you? Why don't you go have some barbecue and I'll be doing my best as a landlord?"
As the general manager of Pin Xixi, Du Qingqing naturally received special care at the wine table.
Fortunately nothing unpleasant happened.
"OK."
Du Qingqing was also very tired from attending such a cocktail party and didn't even eat well.
………
After sending Du Qingqing back to the hotel, Zhang Shuo asked Li Feng to send him home.
Although it was already ten o'clock in the evening, my parents should have gone to bed, but after finally returning to Jiangcheng, if I were still staying in a hotel, my mother would probably be able to expose him if she found out.
result.
After Zhang Shuo quietly entered the door, he found that his parents were still waiting in the living room.
Mom is already drowsy.
"Uh, you haven't slept yet?" Zhang Shuo felt embarrassed.
"You brat, you still know how to come back?" Cai Shuyu subconsciously wanted to complain, but she was very happy to see her son, "Are you hungry? I'll get you some noodles."
"No, no, I just had a midnight snack."
"Would you rather have a midnight snack than go home for dinner?" Cai Shuyu gave her a death stare.
"Well……"
Zhang Shuo quickly looked at Lao Zhang asking for help.
"Forget it, Xiaoshuo was invited by the city government to socialize in the evening, so he must be tired. Let's take a bath and go to bed." Zhang Zhandong was well-informed and considerate of his son.
"hey-hey!"
Zhang Shuo also seemed to be trying to please, and took a box from Li Feng, "Mom, this is a gift for you."
"I guess you have a conscience."
Cai Shuyu opened it and saw that it was a box of Mai Li X1, with more than twenty units. She couldn't help complaining: "There are so many mobile phones, and your dad and I can't use them all."
"Can I give it away?"
Zhang Shuo bought these Mai Li X1 with his own money. Although he is the big boss of Germination, he must take the lead in abiding by the company's rules and regulations and must not show favoritism.
If he can ask for Mai Li X1 in the name of giving a gift, can other managers in the company follow suit?
The atmosphere was ruined.
"Okay!"
Cai Shuyu is actually quite happy, but very arrogant.
Zhang Shuo and Lao Zhang looked at each other, pretended not to notice, and went back to their respective rooms.
………
the next day.
Zhang Shuo attended the launching ceremony of Pinxi Xijiang City.
Du Qingqing, as the general manager of Pinxixi, officially announced the "Guochao Brand Support Plan" at the ceremony. The first-phase fund alone was as high as 3 billion, which immediately strengthened Pinxixi's momentum.
"Mr. Du, can you please introduce this national fashion brand support plan in detail?" a reporter asked.
"certainly!"
Facing the media, Du Qingqing was confident and calm, taking the opportunity to explain the outline of the plan.
It made many people’s eyes shine with excitement.
"Mr. Du, does Pin Xixi's support plan only target domestic brands? Isn't it too narrow?" The reporter who raised the issue arrived late.
Zhang Shuo glanced at it and was frightened again, always looking for trouble.
In my memory.
Every time Germination holds a press conference, there will be reporters from the newspaper who are irritated.
"???"
Facing the reporter's difficulties, Du Qingqing was slightly stunned. After all, he didn't have much experience in facing the media directly, and then explained: "The Guochao brand support plan is just a part of Pinxixi's business plan. It does not mean that Pinxixi is not welcome.
Overseas brands are settling in.”
"It still means that we can't treat everyone equally, right?" The reporter still refused to give up.
"Why treat everyone the same?"
Zhang Shuo finally couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to help Du Qingqing.
"Because China is an open market, overseas brands should receive the same treatment as domestic brands. This is the most basic international trade rule, isn't it?"
When reporters saw Zhang Shuo come off in person, they became even more excited.
"Pinxixi treats all brands equally at the threshold of business entry. Isn't this equal treatment?! As for the support plan you just mentioned, Pinxixi does not mind investing in overseas brands such as Procter & Gamble and Nike."
, but the question is, can these overseas brands have the same open attitude, follow the so-called trade rules, and accept investment from Pinxixi?”
Zhang Shuo has never been timid when it comes to laning.
"You, you are using strong words to make excuses!" The reporter finally became angry with embarrassment.
"Am I arrogant?"
Zhang Shuo was so angry that he laughed, "This is strange to me. Pinxixi is a Chinese company born and raised in China, and its main service targets are also Chinese people. Is there anything wrong with spending a sum of money to support local Chinese companies?"
Is that so? But any Chinese person will basically clap their hands and applaud. How come you are here and instead of applauding, why do you end up doing something wrong? "
"This is narrow nationalism. I'm just sticking to the conscience of a media person."
Reporters saw that Zhang Shuo could not be compared, so they began to blame Zhang Shuo randomly.
This Zhang Shuo was so unafraid, he sneered and said: "It's not your turn to comment on what kind of person I am, but you yourself are wearing a Chinese skin, but inside you are a poor shepherd dog?
"
"a ha ha ha!!!"
These words were so lethal that the audience burst into laughter.
"Don't you feel ashamed that the dignified CEO of Germination Ya actually engaged in personal attacks?" The reporter seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw, "I will report your words objectively and fairly."
Even if I was humiliated on the spot, it was worth it to get such breaking news.
"as you like."
Zhang Shuo sneered at the corner of his mouth, "But when it comes to objectivity and impartiality, it seems that you have nothing to do with your newspaper, right? Do you want me to find someone to take a good look at your skin and see what's inside?"
"You've crossed a line!"
Seeing Zhang Shuo's seriousness, the reporter's eyes couldn't help but twinkle.
"Now do you know how to pretend to be innocent?"
Zhang Shuo did not accept this trick, "Let me make it clear that we do not welcome unscrupulous media like you. Please leave immediately and don't come to participate again in the future."
"This is my freedom, and you are interfering with it." The reporter became even more excited.
Others present were also surprised.
"Security, get this guy out of here!"
Once Zhang Shuo becomes arrogant, no matter what kind of freedom he has, they will already be unhappy with him.
"yes!"
The security guard was also very understanding and took the man out directly.
A good press conference ended hastily in a farce. The good thing is that the press conference, which was not very famous at first, became famous all over the Internet.
There will probably be something good to watch next.
………
"Is it inappropriate to do what you just did? I'm afraid those reporters will write nonsense. Do we need to do some urgent public relations?" After the press conference, Du Qingqing frowned.
"Don't worry, it's okay."
Zhang Shuo has never been an impulsive person, and the reason why he "lost control" just now was actually because he wanted to take the opportunity to talk to Xin Jing Bao, which was also a wake-up call.
He turned to Li Feng and said: "Find someone to check the past reports of Xinjing Bao, find out the parts that confuse right and wrong, and then expose them on the Internet to peel off their skin."
"good."
Li Feng is the professional when it comes to doing this kind of thing.
"Remember to be quick and don't let the other party attack first." Zhang Shuo instructed.
Since the war has already begun, it is natural to take the initiative.
"Do not worry!"
Li Feng took out his mobile phone and immediately started contacting people.
Zhang Shuo also quickly received a call from Lao Zhang, "Xiao Shuo, why did you get into trouble with the reporter? Your mother was very worried and hurried home for dinner. By the way, remember to call Xiao Du too."
"Oh, ah? Which Xiao Du?" Zhang Shuo was a little confused.
"Brat, which one are you talking about?"
"Okay, okay!"
Zhang Shuo wilted and turned to look at the curious Du Qingqing, "My mother invites you to my house for dinner."
"OK!"
Du Qingqing happily agreed.
"It's good to get to know each other, but you have to be prepared for a protracted war in Jiangcheng." Zhang Shuo smiled.
As for the development of Pin Xixi, although Zhang Shuo invested a lot of money and resources in it as soon as it started, and it seemed that he was in a hurry, he actually didn't think about how fast it would be done.
On the contrary, he hoped that Pin Xixi could slow down a little bit.
Taking Jiangcheng as a pilot, we carefully explored and summarized the e-commerce operation experience. From merchant management, to product development, to logistics and express delivery, and customer service capacity building, etc., we have learned everything well and solidly.
After laying the foundation, we can then promote it nationwide.
In the original time and space, why do many major Internet companies, including Tenda and Character Jump, obviously invest a lot of resources, but always do poorly in the e-commerce sector?
Some even ended hastily.
It’s because I’m too eager for quick success and have no professional experience in e-commerce operations. I think I can do it just by spending resources. To paraphrase the uncle’s words——
Not everyone understands e-commerce!
Mo Ya had no similar experience before. Although he had reached a strategic cooperation with Jingdong, he still had to practice the basic skills by himself and could not be taught by others.
………
When the two of them arrived home, their mother was busy in the kitchen and Lao Zhang was waiting in the living room.
"I'm going to help auntie."
Du Qingqing, however, didn't notice anything outside. After saying hello to Lao Zhang, he went into the kitchen.
Zhang Shuo, on the other hand, looked like an old man and sat down on the sofa in the living room.
"Why are you so impulsive today and even quarreling with reporters?" Lao Zhang is still worried about this matter. "You don't know that these reporters seem to be unknown, but they all hold Shang Fang's sword, right?"
"I heard that Xinjing is still a very influential media. It will be very troublesome if you really want to go against Moya with all your heart, right?"
Lao Zhang was extremely concerned about Zhang Shuo's affairs, and he found out the shocking details so quickly.
"If I said I did it on purpose, would you believe it?" Zhang Shuo said.
"Um???"
Lao Zhang was confused, "What kind of medicine are you selling in this gourd?"
"Don't worry about it, I know it well."
Zhang Shuo's little little thing, to put it bluntly, is the resentment accumulated when he was a commoner in the original time and space, and it exploded in this life, which is really not worthy of being criticized by outsiders.
But do people deserve to be angry?
With capital in this life, Zhang Shuo is not willing to swallow his anger. Otherwise, what is the meaning of life?
But in the eyes of outsiders, this would inevitably seem a bit domineering.
"As long as you have a clue in your mind."
Lao Zhang also knew that his son was no longer Wu Xia Amon, otherwise he would not be able to sit in his current position, so he just stopped and said: "Your national fashion brand support plan is really good."
"right?"
Zhang Shuo knew that as a cultural person, Lao Zhang would definitely like this.
"The idea is good, but it still depends on its implementation." Lao Zhang couldn't help but remind him.
"Then I have no control over it. Du Qingqing is personally responsible for executing this matter. She will also be stationed in Jiangcheng permanently." Zhang Shuo is so busy every day that he can't take care of anything.
"Xiao Du is one of the first people to start a business with you, right?" Lao Zhang seemed to mean something.
"Okay, Lao Zhang."
Zhang Shuo was surprised, "I know the people around me very well."
"Go, go, no matter how big or small."
Meeting such a son, Lao Zhang was helpless. He got up and walked to the kitchen.
Zhang Shuo was happy and free.
He took out his mobile phone, and in just a short time, relevant news about the press conference had been posted online. Zhang Shuo was very suspicious, maybe these reporters had written the manuscript at the press conference, right?
Hit the workers!
Such breaking news naturally triggered heated discussions among netizens.
"Let me go, is the cute king so arrogant that even reporters dare to criticize him?"
"It is not the behavior of a gentleman to engage in personal attacks. Prince Meng is really impulsive this time."
"The most outrageous thing is that the cute king even expelled reporters on the spot. This is too overbearing."
"I didn't expect that the cute king would also fall."
Netizens subconsciously resist privilege and sympathize with the weak.
Of course, there are also strong supporters of Zhang Shuo.
"I think that the cute king did something to relieve his anger. It was obviously the reporter who was angry first. Why, why do you want the cute king to not fight back or scold you? You really think you are a supervisory censor."
"Not only is it a strange thing, but it's also like what the cute king said, it's a shepherd dog."
"This kind of person is indeed hateful. In ancient times, he would have been a traitor and a lackey."
"You open your mouth to the world, but shut your mouth to the world. What the heck, are all foreign countries really treated equally? Then our brothers in Africa have something to say."
"This kind of person is just plain bad."
"Isn't it true that no one pays attention to this national fashion brand support plan? Am I the only one who thinks this plan is very cool? He is indeed the king of cuteness, and he always comes up with something new."
"That's true. I originally thought that Pin Xixi was going to follow the old path of Magic Treasure and Jingdong, and engage in involution. Now it seems that Pin Xixi's positioning is really different, and there is something special."
"Just wait and see, I hope sprouts will have new surprises!"
It is estimated that no one expected that even if there was such a big disturbance, the overall public opinion on the Internet was still very favorable to Zhang Shuo, and it was not able to discredit Zhang Shuo.
It can be seen that the netizens are all genuine.
Of course, this is just an appearance, privately, but there is already an undercurrent surging...
………
No matter how lively the outside world is, the villa is not deserted either.
It was rare for Zhang Shuo to eat at home, but his mother prepared a large table of dishes. With Du Qingqing, Dai Yutong, and Li Feng accompanying him, the house suddenly became lively.
"Xiao Du, I heard that you are now the general manager of Pin Xixi?" Cai Shuyu pulled Du Qingqing to talk.
"Mr. Zhang thinks highly of me."
"It's amazing. You are so young. I heard that you still worked hard with Xiaoshuo?"
"That's right. It was Mr. Zhang who bought my convenience store in the first place." Thinking of that period, Du Qingqing's eyes were a little blurry. Although it had only been more than two years, it felt very far away.
"This is truly fate."
Cai Shuyu changed the topic, "Xiao Du, you are so beautiful, what does your boyfriend do?"
"Ahem, Auntie, I'm too busy at work and haven't made friends yet." Du Qingqing rarely blushed.
"Really? What a coincidence, Xiaoshuo didn't talk about it, and always said he was too busy. Let me tell you, work and life must be taken care of well." Cai Shuyu seemed to mean something.
"Mom, that's enough. This is nothing." Zhang Shuo couldn't stand it anymore.
"What do you know, brat?"
Cai Shuyu was not happy and gave Zhang Shuo a look. If there were no outsiders, he would have grabbed Zhang Shuo's ears by now.
"Okay, okay, I don't understand, I don't understand." Zhang Shuo panicked for a second.
"Pfft!"
It was rare to see the big boss in trouble, so Du Qingqing and Dai Yutong were both amused. Unexpectedly, the big boss, who was so majestic outside, was also a younger brother at home.
………
Early the next morning, Zhang Shuo flew to the Magic City again.
