Early the next morning, I went to the company to deal with the backlog of work during this period, and the whole morning passed.
At noon, Chen Dajiang sent me information about the company called Guangmao Group Co., Ltd., including the business cooperation contract.
I took advantage of the meal time to take a closer look at the company's situation.
It's really amazing. It was listed ten years ago and its market value has always been stable.
Moreover, it has been developing for nearly fifty years and has been in business since the 1970s.
Until now, general managers have changed from generation to generation, but the company has always maintained a relatively stable state.
In the past fifty years of development, there have been almost no major decision-making mistakes, and it has also resulted in the birth of batch after batch of domestic brands.
I can only say that I was narrow-minded before. I really didn’t expect that there is such a treasure company in Chongqing.
After reading their information, I suddenly felt that 50% revenue sharing was not a lot.
Even if I don’t make any money at all, or even use money to get in, I don’t even think there’s anything wrong with it.
But I still want to talk about it again. It’s not about the price, but I want to talk about the future cooperation model and related strategic development.
I immediately asked Chen Dajiang to give me the contact number of the person in charge of the other party, and then called him.
The other party was a woman and she was quite cheerful. She made an appointment with me to meet at their company.
That afternoon I drove to Guangmao Business Company with Chen Dajiang. I asked Chen Dajiang to wait for me in the car, and then I went upstairs alone.
On the 14th floor of Guangmao Building, after I explained my intention to the front desk, the front desk took me into the company.
The company is quite large, with an entire floor dedicated to their company, but the decoration looks a bit old-school.
Old school is old school, but nothing is missing, and it gives people a feeling that it is worthy of trust.
After the front desk took me into the company, a girl who claimed to be the assistant to the business department manager came and took me to the business department manager's office.
After the assistant knocked on the door and received a "Please come in" from inside, he opened the door and stretched out his hand to me.
The moment the door was opened, I smelled a particularly strong perfume, but this perfume was definitely not a cheap brand.
But when I walked into the office, I was really surprised.
Sitting in front of the desk was a middle-aged woman in her forties. She seemed to have a good temperament and was a bit fat. The clothes she wore were of high quality and were worth a lot of money.
I have met many business department managers, all of whom are men. This is the first time I have seen a business department manager who is a woman.
It’s not that I’m discriminating against my daughter, but the Ministry of Commerce itself involves many things, and there are many places where I need to socialize, and socializing naturally involves drinking.
Unless this woman has a shocking amount of alcohol, it is impossible for a woman to be the business manager even if she is very capable.
I walked to the desk, smiled politely and said, "Mr. Jiang, this is Chen Feng who contacted you at noon."
"I know, sit down."
She spoke to me simply, then took out a box of women's cigarettes and asked me, "Do you smoke?"
"Thank you, I don't have to." I said with a smile.
She lit the cigarette herself, took a puff gracefully, and then said, "Tell me, what's the matter?"
Her attitude made me a little unhappy, but a big company like her is naturally not interested in a small company like ours, so it would be nice if she could give me a chance to talk.
So I still said very humbly: "Mr. Jiang, this is a matter of our cooperation. I listened to the employees in my company chatting with me, and I also learned about your company myself. I think..."
My politeness was not exchanged for her politeness. She raised her hand and said: "Don't think, someone from your company came to talk to me before, and I also gave suggestions, so just tell me directly."
Can a 50/50 profit sharing be feasible? If not, then there is no need to talk about it, and don’t waste time.”
"I also thought about it at noon. Fifty percent of the profit sharing is of course no problem, but the premise is the cooperation model and future strategic development. I am here to talk to you about this today."
When I said this, she suddenly snorted coldly and said: "You are just a small company. It is already very good that we can represent your products. You still dare to make demands?"
Her words were so direct that I couldn't finish her words for a while.
I finally understood why Chen Dajiang couldn't handle it, because this woman was too difficult to talk to and too tricky.
I don’t know if it’s menopause, but I seem to be carrying a knife every time I say it.
But I still had to keep smiling and said to her: "Mr. Jiang, please listen to me first and then make a decision."
She nodded absently: "Go ahead, but my time is limited, so you'd better speak quickly."
I didn't say any more nonsense, and quickly gave a rough outline of the cooperation model and development strategy that I had considered before I came here.
In short, I will shift their main force to us, and I can give them 70% of the profit share.
Including future strategic development, what I want to do is to open stores in every provincial capital city across the country.
After listening to my suggestion, she burst into laughter and said disdainfully: "Are you dreaming?"
Her directness hurt me, and I even began to wonder how she got to this position.
It can be said that this person has no emotional intelligence at all.
She can look down on our company for being small, or she can look down on us, but she can't trample on us so directly, right?
I suddenly have no interest, really, even though their company is really awesome.
But working with such people will make our lives very difficult.
I didn't continue talking. I stood up, looked at her coldly, and said, "Mr. Jiang, excuse me! But I want to give you a word, keep a line in your life so that we can meet each other in the future. That's it."
After saying this, I left decisively.
It's a bit depressing, but it's reasonable. It's not so easy to accomplish something!
When we got back to the car, Chen Dajiang saw my unhappy expression and immediately asked me: "How is it? We didn't talk about it, okay?"
I smiled bitterly, shook my head and said, "Now I finally understand why you haven't been able to deal with it. That woman named Jiang is so difficult to talk to."
"Really? She doesn't look down on our company at all. She said that with a 50% revenue share, we have to operate according to their model."
I waved my hand emotionally and said, "Forget it, let's drive! Let's go back."
Chen Dajiang was still a little reluctant and said to me: "Brother Feng, don't you really think about it? It's not easy to find a company with such qualifications again. 1
If you think about it carefully, it is indeed true.
Guangmao Company can provide us with a lot of help. It is definitely a reliable platform. We now need such a platform to support our development.
It would indeed be a bit too hasty to just give up.
There is no such thing as easy in the adult world, and you absolutely cannot give up just like that.
If you want to accomplish something, you must have the courage to go all out.
After thinking about it, I immediately slapped my thigh and said to Chen Dajiang: "Don't go back. I'll think of a way. If we can't win this matter, we won't go back. 1
