Zhao Yanran has many counters and partners in the cosmetics city. Relying on these channels, the sales volume of the cosmetics produced in her factory can be considered stable.
This is also the reason why she is unwilling to spend too much money to hire a general manager, because the channels are stable and the production is stable. Hiring a general manager is also responsible for management.
I asked a lot of people in the afternoon. What Jiang Xiaoyan meant was that the current mainstream lipsticks in the market are all priced at 5 yuan. This type of market is very large, but the competition is also fierce.
She wants to target the seven-eight-yuan terminal market and focus on quality. Although the market is not big, there are few competitors, so it is easy to carve out a niche.
Lu Feng agreed very much with her idea and praised Jiang Xiaoyan all the way.
In the evening, Zhao Yanran got into Lu Feng's car, sat in the back seat and said, "This cosmetics mall is very big, and the relationships inside are extremely messy. Let me tell you, this is a world where ordinary people can't get along."
"It's better to rely more on Sister Yanran." Jiang Xiaoyan said politely: "What should we eat? Western food? Or Cantonese food?"
"Anything will do, just find a fast food restaurant." Zhao Yanran said politely: "There is no need to spend so much money."
"It's okay, it's just a daily meal." Jiang Xiaoyan said to Lu Feng: "Then let's go to that Western restaurant."
Lu Feng nodded and drove towards his destination. In the private room on the third floor, as a guest, Lu Feng handed the menu to Zhao Yanran.
Zhao Yanran is considered to be worth a lot of money. Looking at the price above, she secretly smacks her lips. Do these two people eat like this every day? Any dish costs more than ten yuan, and the more expensive ones cost dozens of yuan.
"It's too expensive, order a tiramisu..."
Lu Feng casually ordered steak and other side dishes, which cost more than a hundred yuan per person, and ordered a bottle of red wine.
"Have you started giving birth?" Zhao Yanran asked.
"Not yet. We just decided on the venue today. I guess it will take a few days. I don't have a clue." Jiang Xiaoyan took a sip of tea and said, "If there are some things I don't understand, I still need to ask Sister Yanran for more advice."
"Oh, no problem. Sister, you are easy to talk to. I like dealing with you like this the most." Zhao Yanran acted very sincerely and said: "If you make something more high-end, you must use certain materials.
To be precise, this is the way this industry is. If the raw materials are slightly more expensive, the profit will be gone."
"I also heard this afternoon. They said that better lipsticks are made from refined castor oil and wax oil."
"Yes, yes, I happen to know a family that does a very good job in this area..."
Lu Feng was sitting there drinking tea. With his eyes, he could tell at a glance what Zhao Yanran wanted to do. Everyone was a competitor. It would be kind and righteous not to cause any obstacles for you. He even rushed to introduce the supply of raw materials.
business.
There is no such kind person in the world.
Lu Feng didn't say anything. He could tell that Jiang Xiaoyan was very happy. It wasn't just a business. Happiness was the most important thing. Some things needed her to go through slowly.
Lu Feng has the money and the ability to let her do whatever she wants within the scope he has defined.
The meal lasted for more than an hour. Lu Feng didn't say ten words in total. Jiang Xiaoyan and Zhao Yanran chatted non-stop. They barely signed the contract in one meal and chatted about more than a dozen suppliers.
.
The sky is getting dark, and the scorching heat in the air is beginning to dissipate. The breeze blows, and the big willow trees on both sides of the road sway with the wind, which makes people feel a little comfortable. There are groups of people on the roadside cooling off after meals.
Lu Feng and Jiang Xiaoyan said goodbye to Zhao Yanran. She saw Lu Feng's eyebrows beaming with joy, and she couldn't be described as happy. She asked, "Let's hurry up. According to the market vacancy mentioned by Sister Zhao, our factory's productivity is definitely not enough. When the time comes,
The scale of production can be expanded.”
"The business needs to be stable first, and then we can do it. Also, you must do the market research yourself. The data in other people's mouths may be all false." Lu Feng didn't want to pour cold water on her. Seeing her like this, he should give it to her.
The temperature has dropped.
"If there really is such a huge market potential, why don't people do it?"
Jiang Xiaoyan was stunned for a moment, thought about it, and said: "It makes sense, but there is indeed a vacancy in the market in this area. We are going in the right direction."
"Don't believe her entirely." Lu Feng took her hand and said, "I believe that a big shot in the cosmetics industry is rising."
"Go buy some of the latest magazines, look at the styles, and then draw some drawings and get some ideas." Jiang Xiaoyan stood there and thought for a while, and arranged time for herself.
"Read the magazine before nine o'clock, study the news I got today, call Mr. Qian from nine to ten-thirty to discuss tomorrow's affairs, wash up at ten-thirty, and continue living as a couple...
"
Lu Feng listened to her muttering in a low voice. He was already on the spot. Even though he was so busy, he still refused to let him go.
The only good thing is that her life has indeed been enriched, and she no longer lies on a sun lounger and looks at the sea and beach like she did before.
After returning home, I bought a lot of the latest cosmetics magazines. I was dazzled by the various products. Lu Feng really knew nothing about this industry. Jiang Xiaoyan kept reading and writing, and called Qian Nana from time to time.
"What does this color look like? Compared with the one just now, which one looks better?" Jiang Xiaoyan showed Lu Feng a photo and asked, "I think young girls will like this."
"Aren't these two the same color?" Lu Feng said with a speechless face.
"This one is brownish-purple, and this one is dark red. These darker colors are popular nowadays. They are very cool!"
Lu Feng:........................
I finalized four lipsticks in one night. I calculated it based on the raw material prices on the market. The cost is about two yuan. If I sell it in retail for six or seven yuan, the profit is acceptable. If it is a second hand, it will be ten yuan.
.
Jiang Xiaoyan held the phone in her hand all night, and she gradually began to look like a boss. She no longer spoke in a questioning manner, but also had ideas in her heart and began to give orders.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, the lights in the room were turned off, and the moonlight outside the window was so bright. Lu Feng lay on the bed and felt a little tired, more tired than dealing with things all day at Jiafeng Electronics.
Mainly because he was listening to a group of women chirping, his brain ached, and they were given various shades, such as isolation cream, whitening cream, foundation, and essence. Lu Feng felt that they were completely doing chemical experiments.
"The factory will be cleaned up tomorrow, and they will report to work. I should call Fengxia." Jiang Xiaoyan was still muttering, slowly leaning towards Lu Feng, her little head squeezed over and asked, "I feel like she should know this."
, if the ex-factory price is two yuan, our profit is only one yuan. According to this calculation, the ones we look at today for 80 cents cost at most 30 to 40 cents, no wonder they are so difficult to use."
"Go to bed early, aren't you tired?" Lu Feng took a deep breath, feeling tired from the depths of his soul.
"Why are you sleeping? It's not finished yet?"
"What's accomplished?"
"What do you think?"
Jiang Xiaoyan didn't feel shy at all in the darkness, she turned over and rode up directly.
Lu Feng lay on the bed and looked at the quartz clock on the wall. It was already eleven forty. He felt that his whole body had been hollowed out. He had not felt this kind of physical and mental exhaustion for many years.
Accompanying Jiang Xiaoyan to start a business felt even more tiring than starting one on her own. She closed her eyes and quickly went to sleep. Jiang Xiaoyan next to her groped around again.
The next morning, Jiang Xiaoyan stood by the bed wearing an apron, patted Lu Feng with her hand and said, "Get up!"
"Ah?" Lu Feng glanced at Jiang Xiaoyan vaguely. She was wearing an apron, smelling of kitchen fumes, and her long hair was casually tied into a bun.
Her eyes seemed to have stars, and there was a faint smile on her face. Her whole person exuded a sense of charm and spirit, like a young woman.
"Aren't you sleepy?" Lu Feng looked at her and asked.
"You're not sleepy. You've slept for ten hours. If you're tired, I'll go to the factory by myself in the morning. Breakfast is on the table." Jiang Xiaoyan couldn't bear to see that he was so tired.
Lu Feng got up and wanted to go with her, but he was too tired after breakfast, so he asked Jiang Xiaoyan to go alone. When he returned to the bedroom, Lu Feng went to bed and shouted: "I'm busy during the day, but tired at night.
It’s so hard to be a man!”
Jiang Xiaoyan drove alone to the factory gate. At this moment, she felt for the first time that she could still live like this in her life, as if she had reached the highlight of her life.
After walking out of the car door and entering the factory on high heels, Qian Nana was already waiting with a group of people. When she saw Jiang Xiaoyan coming alone, she said, "Good morning, Mr. Jiang."
"Hello, Mr. Jiang!"
Various greetings came and went. Jiang Xiaoyan was just a housewife before, but with such a high status in society, she felt a little bit arrogant for a moment.
"The boss is so beautiful!"
"Isn't this too beautiful?"
"I'm telling you, I've seen a lot of female bosses, and Mr. Jiang is definitely the most beautiful, like a fairy."
Jiang Xiaoyan had a smile on her lips and was in an indescribably good mood. She waved her hand towards Qian Nana and said, "Let's have a meeting."
The kind of person who transforms from a housewife to a beautiful and attractive CEO wearing beautiful clothes is what every woman wants to have.
This is also one of the methods of micro-business in later generations. Regardless of whether you have achieved results or not, and whether you have made money or not, you will first put some general name on it, and then start walking on the red carpet, giving you the illusion of success and fame, and attracting everyone's attention.
This situation has little effect on men. When Lu Feng started working in a canning workshop, he was very devoted to money and didn't care about some false reputations. Maybe this is the fundamental difference between men and women.
Seven people came today, responsible for workshop production, finance, personnel, sales, product design and other matters. This small factory is fully staffed. We will recruit more assembly line employees and we can officially start production.
"Mr. Jiang, this is the salary schedule. According to our preliminary budget, ordinary workers will be recruited 150 people in the early stage. Plus our eight-person management team, the salary is estimated to be 50,000 yuan. Do you think there is a problem?"
Qian Nana handed over the salary slip.
Jiang Xiaoyan looked through it carefully.
If Lu Feng were here and heard this salary figure, he would probably slap the report in her face on the spot. The salary of an ordinary worker is about 200 yuan, 150 people is 30,000 yuan, plus Qian Nana's 10,000 yuan
Yuan, which means these seven people will get a high salary of ten thousand yuan!
