This person is really stubborn. I couldn't help but smile bitterly. I said: "I personally think that since your company is well-known around the world, the best way is to promote your company during the construction of the factory.
.
The power of brand is very huge. Once people know that your brand is world-class, the effect will definitely be very good if specific products are released in the future and then general publicity is carried out.
Sorry, Mr. Peter, I don’t understand product marketing, it’s just my personal thoughts.”
Qi Diaoxin immediately said: "I think Mayor Feng knows marketing very well.
Mr. Chairman, Mayor Feng’s suggestion just now fully expresses one of the most critical principles in advertising and marketing, which is the principle of low communication cost.
Your company is well-known all over the world, but we Chinese people don't necessarily know it. Therefore, we must first carry out brand promotion, which will make it easy for the people to know your company's brand as soon as possible.
Many people's pursuit of brand psychology can prompt them to remember your company's name as soon as possible.
Next, when your products come out in the future, you only need to display the label that they are produced by your company, which will greatly reduce your future marketing costs."
Peter nodded, "That makes sense. Feng, your knowledge is very broad. It's a pity that you can't become the manager of our company."
I was a little embarrassed and said: "I really don't understand marketing, so I ended up running into it by mistake."
At this time, Mi Xiaofu said with a smile: "Mayor Feng has rich experience. It is said that if you know something, you can master it."
I immediately laughed, "Are you criticizing me? As far as I know, only some leaders are like this. When they reach a certain level, when people talk about philosophy, they must be experts in philosophy.
In mathematics, he also dares to talk about Goldbach's conjecture."
They all laughed, Mi Xiaofu laughed especially cheerfully.
The meal was very relaxed, without so much etiquette, and it felt like it was always a fair conversation. Peter later said: "Thank you, you gave me a lot of tips today. Look.
Now I need to conduct further research on the Chinese market. Feng, what you said is very right. For us, the development of the Chinese market should be studied as a strategic issue."
The meal didn't take long, probably less than two hours. Later, Peter apologetically told us that he had an important business event in the evening, and our dinner ended there.
After saying goodbye to Peter, I went downstairs with Mi Xiaofu and Qi Diaoxin. The driver I brought with me had already finished his meal arranged by Peter's subordinates, and he was waiting for me in the car.
I said goodbye to both of them.
Qi Diaoxin said to me: "Mayor Feng, I am so happy to meet you today."
I shook hands with him and said, "I'm honored too."
Then Mi Xiaofu took the initiative to reach out to me and said, "Mayor Feng, goodbye!"
I smiled at her and said, "I hope we can really see you again."
She immediately laughed and said, "We have exchanged business cards today. Next time Mayor Feng comes to Beijing, give me a call."
Qi Diaoxin next to him smiled and said: "Mayor Feng, you are really honored. Our Comrade Xiaofu rarely takes such initiative."
Now I felt a little embarrassed, but Mi Xiaofu glared at Qi Diaoxin, "I hate it!"
Then we broke up. In my heart, I just regarded today's incident as a chance encounter, because I knew that for a celebrity like Mi Xiaofu, what she just said to me was just a polite word. And
I won't really call her next time, because I know that the result of doing so will be a polite rejection by the other party, or a random excuse to shirk it.
Maybe in the past, I would have believed her words, but now I know that it was actually just a fantasy, and it was a sign of immaturity.
An immature person will often trust others too much. In the final analysis, it is also a kind of self-narcosis.
After returning to the Beijing Office, Director Wu had not returned yet, but I did not call him. I just knocked on his door. I know that many local officials have their own private arrangements after coming to Beijing.
For example, myself. Therefore, I am not ready to contact him again.
In fact, this is also true at the local level. When the responsible persons of the following counties and cities go to the provincial capital to handle business, they do not come just for official business. Of course, it is difficult to elaborate on the details.
I don’t want to call Director Hou. In fact, I also know that his previous enthusiasm for me was just temporary. Now, our subway project has basically been finalized. The National Development and Reform Commission has approved the new plan in our province.
, the Ministry of Transportation is conducting demonstrations on the new plan and will soon enter the design stage.
We have completed the decoration of his weapons exhibition hall. I also called him to ask him about the inscription on the plaque in the exhibition hall, but he told me that this matter is not urgent for the time being.
Of course I asked him the reason, and later he told me that his collection was too small, and that he would wait until the collection is complete. Although I don’t think it was because he was reluctant to part with it, I think this person at least had a good understanding of this matter.
It seems too petty.
I also reported this matter to Secretary Rong, but she said indifferently: "It doesn't matter. After all, we haven't publicized this matter yet. Let him do whatever he says."
But I felt very sorry for Mr. Liu. One night I went to his house to have a drink with him. I also told him about the incident and apologized to him, "Old man, you donated that thing, even though you donated it.
Our project has played a vital role, but in the final analysis it still satisfies some personal selfish desires. I am very sorry for this and feel very sorry for you."
He smiled faintly and said: "I have already said that I donated the things to the Shangjiang Municipal Government, not for him. Now that the project has been won, I am very happy. This can be regarded as something I have done for my hometown.
I have made a little contribution. Xiao Feng, don’t feel guilty. You have done a lot of useful work for our Shangjiang City, and I have seen it all. That thing is nothing, it has been passed down from ancient times.
, its value has been fully reflected, which is enough. I don’t believe that someone will carry that thing into the grave in the future. After all, it is still social wealth and will still be passed down from generation to generation in the future. Just
But it’s in his hands for now.”
Hearing what he said at that time, I felt a lot better. I was still a little confused, so I immediately asked him: "Old man, why do you think he regretted that matter? It stands to reason.
