Chapter 538 She Has Someone Above Her
Li Changgong took the initiative to undertake the task of talking to Red Fox Advertising Company.
Jiang Dahe waved his hand and said leisurely: "Old Li, it's no use for you to talk to Red Fox Advertising Company!"
Li Changgong was startled and asked in confusion: "Why?"
Jiang Dahe said: "I asked someone and found out that the manager of Red Fox Advertising Company is called Tang Mingzhu. She is a woman from Jiangcheng who is in her early twenties."
As the manager of a department store, Jiang Dahe was a well-known figure in Qingwa City. Since the Red Fox Advertising Company had caused such a big fuss, he made some inquiries and found out something.
Of course, what he knew was only superficial.
For example, he only knew that Tang Mingzhu came from Jiangcheng, but he didn't know that Tang Mingzhu was originally a reporter for Beihu Provincial Daily, nor did he know what her relationship with Zhao Hanyu was. He only knew that she had a very good relationship with Zhao Hanyu.
In his opinion, this kind of good thing is probably just something between men and women.
It is understandable that he thinks so. After all, Zhao Hanyu is single, has a good status and extraordinary ability, and Tang Mingzhu is young and beautiful, and is a good match for Zhao Hanyu.
Li Changgong had not asked about Tang Mingzhu, but after hearing what Jiang Dahe said, he was very impressed and said, "Manager Jiang, you are so good at intelligence work that you have found out all this."
Jiang Dahe said: "This is not the point. Old Li, think about it, why would a young and beautiful woman suddenly run from the provincial capital to a small place like Qingwa to open an advertising company?"
"There's someone above her!" Li Changgong realized it all at once and asked immediately, "Who is it?"
Jiang Dahe said: "Who else could it be? Master Zhao!"
"It's him!" Li Changgong was shocked. Many things that he couldn't understand before suddenly became clear to him. He said, "No wonder the municipal government is so supportive. If Zhao Hanyu is the backer of Red Fox Advertising Company, then everything makes sense."
Then I understood why Jiang Dahe stopped him from talking to Mayor Zhao.
Since it was Zhao Hanyu who did it, what would be the use even if he went to see Mayor Zhao?
Not only will it be useless, it may also offend Mayor Zhao and Zhao Hanyu.
Thinking about it, Li Changgong felt a little scared. He was glad that Jiang Dahe had done the intelligence work, otherwise if he really went to Mayor Zhao to argue, the consequences would be very serious.
Jiang Dahe said: "So it's useless to go to Red Fox Advertising Company. It's better to go directly to Mr. Zhao. As long as he agrees to purchase from us, Tang Mingzhu can only purchase from us."
Li Changgong thought for a moment and said, "If we are talking to Mr. Zhao, it is better for you, Manager Jiang, to come forward! After all, you have a better relationship with him."
"Okay!" Jiang Dahe nodded and agreed, "Then don't worry about it. I'll go talk to Mr. Zhao."
He was still very confident and had the confidence to get this order.
Putting aside his relationship with Zhao Hanyu, even if Zhao Hanyu wanted to buy so many televisions and bicycles at one time, only a department store in the entire Qingwa City could do that.
If Zhao Hanyu doesn’t look for him to cooperate, who else can he look for?
The discussion on Jiang Dahe's first solution came to an end, and Li Changgong asked, "Manager Jiang, what is your second solution?"
Jiang Dahe smiled bitterly and said, "What else could it be? Isn't Honghe Advertising Company recruiting investors? We can also participate in it!"
Li Changgong was stunned, his face full of horror, and he said in a trembling voice: "Manager Jiang, are you saying that our department store will also set up stalls during the New Year's Goods Festival?"
This is a department store, the most upscale store in Qingwa City, and it is state-owned. Yet it has fallen to the point of setting up street stalls. Li Changgong couldn't even imagine such a thing.
How decent is that?
How embarrassing!
Jiang Dahe had this feeling, but he still replied affirmatively: "Yes, it was the stall at last year's Goods Festival."
"Besides this, I really can't think of any other way!"
Li Changgong shook his head firmly, "No, if we really do this, our colleagues from other branches will laugh at us to death when we go to the provincial department store for meetings in the future!"
Jiang Dahe looked at Li Changgong deeply and said, "Old Li, you have to change your mindset. We are responding to the call of the municipal government and actively participating in the large-scale activities organized by the municipal government."
"This..." Li Changgong looked at Jiang Dahe in astonishment, and then a bitter smile appeared on his face.
It’s true, after Jiang Dahe said that, others really have nothing to say.
After all, the department store is also a state-owned enterprise under the leadership of the municipal government. The leader has spoken, so how can the subordinates not cooperate?
"It has to be you!"
After a wry smile, Li Changgong looked up to Jiang Dahe and said with admiration.
Although the matter is still the same, but after changing the way it is said, it seems that even its nature has changed.
Jiang Dahe waved his hand, "This is the only solution!"
After that, he raised a question, "The most critical thing now is how our department stores can participate in the New Year Goods Festival to get the most benefits. This requires a plan."
Li Changgong nodded and said, "We still need to contact Red Fox Advertising Company to understand their investment policy first, and then we can formulate a corresponding plan."
Jiang Dahe said: "Then you go to Red Fox Advertising Company and follow their normal investment promotion process, mainly to understand some operational details."
"I'm going to find Master Zhao!"
Li Changgong agreed, and the two of them went their separate ways.
The department store has a response plan, but the director Zhou Weiqing of the supply and marketing cooperative is still as anxious as an ant on a hot pan.
His old partner, Deputy Director Yang Meng, saw this and consoled him: "Old Zhou, why are you in such a hurry?"
Zhou Weiqing said unhappily, "How can I not be anxious when something like this suddenly pops up?"
Yang Meng smiled and said, “It’s just a matter of stealing business. Just let them steal it. It’s not like we haven’t snatched business from department stores over the years, and we are still doing well.”
Zhou Weiqing said: "That's not necessarily true!"
Yang Meng said: "What's the difference? Don't worry about it. Can a New Year's Goods Festival really cause the supply and marketing cooperative to close down?"
Zhou Weiqing said: "That's not the case. After all, the New Year Goods Festival only lasts for twenty days."
“That’s right!” Yang Meng said, “As long as the supply and marketing cooperative doesn’t close down, you can still be the director and still get your 260 yuan salary every month.”
"Even if our supply and marketing cooperative doesn't make a penny this year, will the state still lose a penny of your salary?"
“You…” Zhou Weiqing was speechless after hearing what Yang Meng said. After a long pause, he said, “Old Yang, you are still a deputy director. If everyone in the supply and marketing cooperative thinks like you, the supply and marketing cooperative will close sooner or later.”
Yang Meng smiled indifferently, "I'm just trying to comfort you!"
Patting Zhou Weiqing on the shoulder, he smiled and said, "Actually, this matter is very simple. You don't know the true face of Mount Lu because you are in the mountain."
Zhou Weiqing was stunned, looked at Yang Meng in surprise, and asked, "What do you mean?"
