When the car arrived at Xiang Haixing's home, Jin Huabin's parents had been taken home by his father. The business of the state-owned art carving factory was extremely poor, with very few orders throughout the year. Even the factory director stayed alone in the state-owned factory, and his wife
I registered an art carving factory, and I got good business and gave my wife a role in the factory. Not to mention the salesmen in the factory. To put it bluntly, they all work part-time. They work for the factory openly and secretly for themselves, and the profits are relatively high.
His orders were often sent to factories of related households for processing, and what he left to the Art Carving Factory were useless items with high output value, low profits, and difficult processing. Although Father Jin was the technical authority in the factory, he did not have much work every day.
In order to make a living, I also helped other art carving factories and worked as a technical consultant.
Xiang's father was not polite. When he saw Jin Huabin arriving, he immediately asked him to sit down and said: "Come on, let's fill up the tea first. This time, I took a big order from a Southeast Asian customer, 10,000 jewelry boxes from overseas Chinese in Malaysia.
The total business is more than three million, and this is their first order, just to test the waters. They will go to the company site in a few days to confirm and place the order formally, so I ask you and your son to plan how to receive it."
This is an old routine. The reception is divided into two parts, one is a friendly reception with food, drinks and fun, the other is an explanation of the technical business, and after the two parts are completed, the business price negotiation will be carried out. Jin Huabin and his son repeatedly used the technical staff of their factory to
They had received foreign guests as their identities. The business card Jin’s father showed to the customer was printed as the technical deputy director of the Art Carving Factory, while Jin Huabin’s was the chief of the design department. There was no other reason, mainly because they were both experts and could talk. p>
Jin Huabin took out the USB flash drive and input the design draft inside into the computer. After turning on the computer, he pointed at it and said: "Personally, I feel that these designs are too general. They are just flowers and plants. They have no obvious characteristics and cannot be refreshing.
.To provide customers in Southeast Asia, we have to cater to their mentality."
Xiang's father knew that this was originally a secret photo taken from someone else's booth with a digital camera and then the decoration was changed from wood carving to colored stone inlay. There was no design. When he saw that he was getting to the point, he quickly asked: "You mean Southeast Asia?"
What features do customers need?"
Jin Huabin learned from Jackie Chan's martial arts movies that overseas Chinese have a stronger inheritance of Chinese traditional culture than mainland China. There are Chinatowns everywhere, and dragon and lion dances are performed every year. At first, he thought it was just a talk in martial arts movies.
, Later, I further learned through magazines and newspapers that this was the truth, and I had an idea in my mind, and said: "Overseas Chinese in Southeast Asia believe in Guan Gong, Wong Tai Sin, and Mazu. For example, the boxes used by men can be embedded with these related pictures.
Women like to read classic works such as Dream of Red Mansions and Three Words and Erpai. For jewelry boxes, add the characters and stories inside."
Father Xiang thought about it for a while and said, "Your idea is very reasonable, but the design and production will take time. They will arrive the day after tomorrow, and they will only have two days. No matter what, they will not have time to come up with a series of samples."
Xiang Haixing became very happy after hearing this and said: "No problem, there are many interesting places in Xianju. I will arrange a three-to-five-day itinerary and find more beauties, good drinkers, government leaders and people who are well-known in the society."
My friends accompany them to have a good drink, so that they can have more face and be happy to miss Shu."
"Do you know the identity of the customer who came this time?" Xiang's father took out his business card, which read in traditional Chinese "President of the Chinese Cultural Association of Jikali City, Malaysia, a typical cultural person", pointed to it and said
: "Can you be more relaxed about this? It will be bad if you flatter the horse's hooves."
It's easy to talk if you're a cultural person, and I'm from the cultural station. Jin Huabin felt relieved and said: "The first stop can be given to our cultural station manager Yang to welcome me. What cultural people like most is stories with connotations.
We'll take care of this, but if he has any special preferences, you can make your own arrangements."
"You have to have it, you give me the amount of entertainment fee, and I'll pay it to you in advance." Father Xiang handed over a stack of hundred-yuan bills and said, "You take it first and we'll see how we can arrange it. If it's not enough, I'll give it to you."
Besides, let’s chat while eating.”
All the details were finalized at the dinner table. The first day after the client arrived was to have a meeting with him and get him drunk as late as possible; the second day was at Shenxian Residence; the third day was at Gaoqian Ancient Houses and the ancient town of Choutan, and then back to the city at night
Drink, wash your feet, have a bar, etc., and invite more famous ladies who are good at drinking and singing to accompany you.
It's really offensive. The other party's business card is the president of the Chinese Cultural Association. It's absolutely OK to find resonance with the traditional culture of Xianju. At the banquet, Jin Huabin made a draft and felt confident. In the myth of Xianju
, there is a dragon girl who is similar to Mazu. Her stories are compiled and interpreted, processed and echoed with the fairyland scenery, which can increase the interest of the scenery and arouse cultural resonance.
The more people listen to the beautiful lies, the more people believe them, and they become folk tales and myths passed down orally. One of the functions of the cultural station is to collect these stories. So, Jin Huabin used the legend of the stone carvings on the cliff of Xianju Tako
It is a heavenly book left by Dayu after he controlled the floods. Tuo, his disciple, and Long Nvrao fell in love due to hostility and got married. Later, in order to calm down the floods, they used their own blood and soil to repair the Milky Way.
The myth of leaking into the earth and thus sacrificing his life has been processed and supplemented, and the details of the story have been added to match the scenic spots of Shenxianju.
"A long, long time ago, it rained heavily for several years. The water in Weiqiang River surged, and the land of Xianju was covered with ocean. Long Nvrao lay motionless on the water, with pieces of freshwater moss rushing down from the mountain.
Sliding by, this is a rare delicacy for the sea people. The dragon girl swallowed her saliva and was about to reach out for it. Suddenly, a young man jumped into the water from the shore and swam towards her quickly. Before she could wait, she
After reacting, the young man swam to her side and asked anxiously: "The water is dangerous, I will pull you ashore." After saying that, without waiting for her answer, he put her on his back and swam ashore...
"In the old teahouse, Jin Huabin put his arms around Zhang Guifang and told her his own fairy tales.
"Which young man is who?" She asked curiously with flashing eyes: "What will he do after he carries her to the shore? Has he fallen in love with her?"
"The story has to have ups and downs to make it exciting. Do you think they fell in love at first sight like us?" Jin Huabin scratched her nose and teased: "Let me kiss you before I continue."
"I hate it." She pushed his hand away and said, "It's a pity not to write a fairy tale like Zheng Yuanjie. But, do you know what traditional culture the guest likes? Maybe he is interested in Tang poetry and Song poetry.
What, instead of myths and folklore?"
***The author has something to say***
The more people listen to the beautiful lie, the more people believe it, and it becomes a folk tale and myth passed down by word of mouth.
