Chapter 249: Emotional Contrast
The first day of the auto show ended with Shen Man's overwhelming momentum. I left the auto show with an uneasy mood. My mood at this moment was the same as that night, and it was difficult to find a trace of light.
I didn't even eat, so I went to the top of this huge tall building again. When the wind whizzed past my face wantonly, I felt so powerless. Shen Man was invincible to me. , I am asking for failure by leapfrogging her to challenge her... But I am not willing to let my long-awaited dream be shattered like this.
It was already 9:30, and today Angel did not come to the top floor of this high-rise building again. I was a little disappointed. In fact, as she said, every time I come here, I am the most helpless. I long for it. It's enough to have someone who can talk to me about my feelings, even if they can't help me, but they can listen to me express my unhappiness.
The feeling of hunger finally came. I put out the cigarette butt in my hand and left this huge but cold tall building in the blurred moonlight.
........
I drove to Lin Xi's coffee shop and ordered a light meal and drink for dinner.
While they were eating, Chen Qingyi came down from the third floor. Because of Lin Xi's departure, she spent most of her free time at the "Sea View Coffee" recently.
Chen Qingyi looked at me a little surprised. I haven't eaten here for a long time. Even if I sometimes come to Xiro Men's Products Store, I almost never come. Chen Qingyi sat down opposite me with a smile and asked: "Zhang Director, why are you free to come here today?"
"Stop by for dinner." I said in response to her smile.
"Really? By the way, today's auto show, how are your Buick sales?" Chen Qingyi asked with concern.
"What do you think?"
Chen Qingyi smiled and said: "Although I don't know much about marketing, consumers will definitely buy into these overwhelming advertisements and attractive promotions. If I hadn't already bought a car, I would really want to take a look. , so I think Buick should have ushered in a historic moment on this first day of the auto show."
"You guessed it right, today is only 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and it has already broken the highest sales record on the first day of the auto show." I took a sip of tea and said to Chen Qingyi in as calm a tone as possible.
Chen Qingyi looked surprised and said: "The effect of this auto show is so good?"
"Yes, not only Buick, but also partners Cadillac and Mercedes-Benz broke the sales record on the first day of the auto show."
"Ah!~Sister Shen Man is so amazing!" Chen Qingyi sighed.
"Is it necessary to make such a fuss? When she was the director of the marketing department, you didn't know the auto shows she did. This is her ability!"
"So you are very stressed now!"
I did not answer Chen Qingyi directly, and avoided the topic and said: "It's not convenient to smoke here. Let's go to your office to have a cigarette." After that, I said to the waiter: "Give me a cup of jasmine tea and send it to Mr. Chen's office."
The waiter bowed in response to me, and Chen Qingyi and I walked side by side to her office.
Chen Qingyi turned on the air purifier and exhaust fan, and I sat on the sofa and lit a cigarette for myself. I took a puff of the cigarette, exhaled it heavily, and asked Chen Qingyi: "How is the business of your store recently?"
“It’s very good. It’s fully booked every night. On weekends, there are even more people. Many times there are no seats available when guests come.”
"Then you should hurry up and prepare to open a branch."
Chen Qingyi nodded and said, "Well, Lin Xi and I have discussed this matter. We decided to start opening a new store when she comes back from the United States."
"Well, do it as soon as possible. It is always in a saturated operation state. Over time, consumers will be disgusted. After all, this is a coffee shop, not a fast food restaurant." I reminded Chen Qingyi.
"Well, I have already found some connections and hope to get a shop in the city center to be our branch." After a pause, Chen Qingyi said to me softly: "Zhang Yixi, I heard Lin Xi say that at that time, she hoped to give Seaview Coffee
Half of your shares, why did you refuse?"
"Do I have a reason to accept it? Tell me!"
My words made Chen Qingyi stunned for a moment, and then she sighed and said: "Alas! Actually, I can understand your approach...but sometimes it seems that your approach is not wise. If you compromise appropriately,
You can live a good life yourself."
"What you said about living a good life is only material for me, what about spiritual? If I accept the shares given by Lin Xi, I will not be able to pass my own test."
"Yes, this is what I admire about you...but I don't understand why you are so fiercely fighting with Sister Shen Man over the position of general manager. If we look at the two things together, I
I feel quite contradictory.”
"Actually, it's not contradictory at all. Competing with my senior sister is part of my job. Winning is the result of my hard work. Losing is due to my lack of ability. I don't have any emotional pressure at all. You should try to look at it from a different perspective.
Look at my two different choices so you will understand what I did."
Chen Qingyi smiled and said, "I'm just a woman, so I usually think about things from a woman's perspective."
I smiled and shook my head, but did not answer Chen Qingyi's words. As she said, she only looked at these two things from a woman's perspective, so she must not be able to see the essence of the problem clearly.
.........
On the second day of the auto show, Buick's sales were still booming. It still broke the highest sales record on the second day of the auto show. It sold 36 units on the second day. Although it was not as good as the first day, it was normal. I knew very well that in the end
One day's sales may experience a rebound, and may even exceed the first day. Mr. Ning from Mercedes-Benz and Mr. Jin from Cadillac have even begun to discuss with Shen Man the celebration party after the auto show. This time they intend to join forces to do it.
A large celebration banquet.
........
The third day of the auto show came soon. In the morning, Shen Man and I arrived at the auto show early. Up to this time, Buick had sold a total of 78 cars. Even without the sales on the third day, it would be a difficult number to surpass.
number, but I still have the final expectation in my heart, and I put all my expectations
All the pressure is on Zhao Ye. I have checked with him. Currently, he has more than 30 customers. If they are all released at the auto show I am responsible for, and if I am lucky enough, I will meet someone who buys them in bulk.
Organization users, then I still have a chance to win this time.
At around ten o'clock in the morning, the salesperson at the front desk would come to the backend to report basically every hour. Each time, the sales volume of several cars was reported. The sales were even hotter than the first day. This was very abnormal and filled with a sense of uneasiness.
In my heart, I immediately became alert, and I vaguely realized where there was a problem.
