In the conference room, when it came to selecting the general manager, Zheng Ge glanced at Zhu Feng and could clearly see a trace of expectation on his face.
Obviously, the other party wants the position.
He is also an ambitious person.
"General manager... Let Mr. Zhu serve as the general manager for the time being," Zheng Ge said.
A flash of joy flashed across Zhu Feng's face.
"However, to start the ugly story, Mr. Zhu is only the temporary general manager for the time being. When the word "temporary" can be replaced, performance will speak for itself." Zheng Ge said in a somewhat rude tone.
At this time, there is no need to be polite.
If you are too polite, the other person will think you are important.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zheng, I will definitely do my best." Zhu Feng quickly assured that once he takes up the position of general manager, he will definitely have his share of future equity incentives, and it will be the largest share.
This was a great temptation for him.
Zheng Ge nodded and added: "That's it. I hope to see a new dynamic within half a month. Instead of being lifeless like now."
Because the company changed hands, people in the company were in disarray, and it was impossible to work steadily.
I'm afraid that things like layoffs and salary cuts will happen.
"Don't worry, Mr. Zheng, I'll take care of it right away." Zhu Feng nodded and responded. Although Zheng Ge was about the same age as his daughter, he could not help but put down his posture when facing Zheng Ge.
Zheng Ge picked up the teacup and said, "Okay, Mr. Zhu, go ahead and get busy."
"OK."
Upon hearing this, Zhu Feng nodded and stood up to leave the conference room.
When the conference room door closed again, Zheng Ge looked at Zhou Tai and said, "Manager Zhou, I want to know about the company's main products. Such as raw materials, costs, etc., all aspects."
Zhou Tai calmed down and said: "Mr. Zheng, our company currently specializes in power drinks. This is an improvement based on an old formula. It has added the flavors that modern people like and has the effect of refreshing and refreshing..."
Zheng Ge drank tea while listening to Zhou Tai's narration.
This lecture only lasts for 10 minutes.
This gave Zheng Ge a deeper understanding of power drinks.
Putting down the tea cup, Zheng Ge said: "I have been drinking this drink recently and it feels very good. However, I have another request, which is to reduce the cost as much as possible. The current cost is too high."
"this……"
A flash of embarrassment flashed across Zhou Tai's face, "Because some raw materials and processing methods are complicated, the cost is a bit higher..."
Zheng Ge waved his hand, interrupted Zhou Tai, and said: "Then simplify the formula and reduce the raw material processing procedures...as long as it does not affect the taste."
The cost of today’s power drinks is terrifying.
After all, the net profit per bottle is not even 2 cents.
"This..." Zhou Tai was embarrassed.
"No matter what, the current cost is definitely not feasible, it is too high. In the future, the selling price will not exceed 6.5 yuan at most. Drinks are too expensive and no one will buy them. In addition, the gross profit must be at least 50%.
." Zheng Ge continued.
"This, I'll try my best." Zhou Tai gritted his teeth and said.
Zheng Ge breathed a sigh of relief. Since the other party could agree, he was obviously confident.
It would be easier if the cost could be reduced.
"Well, this matter is settled. There is another thing. Manager Zhou knows about carbonated drinks. I am going to develop a fruit-flavored carbonated drink. This is a sample."
Zheng Ge took out a glass bottle and said: "This sample is just a reference. We have to make our own characteristics. This type of drink can be made into a variety of flavors, such as orange, grape, apple, peach, etc.
A fruity flavor.”
This sample was obtained from Lucky Star Company.
Zhou Tai took the glass bottle, which contained orange liquid.
I opened the bottle and smelled it, "Is this the orange flavor?"
"Yes." Zheng Ge nodded and said with a smile: "I hope you can develop the formula as soon as possible. Once successful, this will be one of our company's flagship products in the future."
Zhou Tai nodded, thought about it for a while, and muttered: "Look, it's similar to what that kid Liu Shan figured out!"
"oh?"
Zheng Ge's eyes lit up. Could it be that the company's R&D department has already achieved results?
"It's a young man from our R&D department. He made a new drink a few days ago. It's very similar to this one. I want to confirm it." Zhou Tai said thoughtfully while looking at the glass bottle.
Zheng Ge nodded, stood up and said, "Let's go over and take a look."
Zhou Tai nodded and left the conference room with Zheng Ge.
…
When he came to the R&D department, under Zhou Tai's introduction, Zheng Ge met Liu Shan, a young man in his 20s who seemed to have just graduated from college.
"Mr. Zheng, this is my result, mine is apple flavored."
Liu Shan took out a glass bottle and said.
Zheng Ge took a look, but couldn't see anything. He raised his head and asked, "Can I drink it?"
"Can."
Liu Shan took several goblets and poured drinks into the cups.
Zheng Ge smelled it but did not drink it immediately.
Zhou Tai picked up the cup and took a sip. His eyes lit up and he said to Liu Shan, "You're good! It tastes very good."
Liu Shan chuckled. After all, he had just graduated and was usually very transparent in the R&D department. Naturally, he was happy that his achievements were favored by the leaders.
Seeing this, Zheng Ge also took a sip and nodded. The taste was very good, and it felt even better than Fanta and Mirinda in his previous life.
As for the fruity carbonated drinks produced by Lucky Star Company, they are incomparable to this one.
"Very good. Next, you should perfect the formula as soon as possible. In addition, develop a few more flavors, and I will give you three times the bonus at the end of the month. If it is put into production and goes on sale, you will be given a bonus based on sales volume, with a minimum guarantee of 100,000."
After some encouragement, Zheng Ge left the R&D department under Liu Shan's excited eyes.
…
In the next few days, Zheng Ge was almost always in the power company.
On September 30, Zheng Ge came to the office of the general manager of the power company.
"Mr. Zheng, trial production of fruity carbonated drinks has begun. However, the drink has not been named yet. Mr. Zheng, do you have any suggestions?" Zhu Feng asked Zheng Ge in the office.
"Hmm! Let's call it... Jianlibao." I really can't think of any good name, so I'll just use it as a doctrine. Just think of it as helping Jianlibao survive in this world.
"Jianlibao?"
Zhu Feng thought about it for a while and felt it was okay.
After the name was finalized, Zhu Feng changed his voice and talked about another matter, "Mr. Zheng, currently all departments of the company are being reorganized and reorganized. It is expected that they will be back on track in a week. But there is one more thing. Do we need to continue the production of power drinks?"
"Stop production first and focus on the production of Jianlibao."
Zheng Ge said: "Jianlibao tastes good and sells at a low price. Once it is put into publicity, it will easily open up the market. As for motivation, it will not be too late to put it into production after the new formula is successfully developed."
