Inside the Second Department Store, it’s crowded and lively!
The Orchid Flower Cosmetics Store was also crowded and it was difficult to get in.
This specialty store not only does retail, but also does some wholesale for the small consignment points in the production team.
Just because of these consignment points.
If they want to buy some anti-cracking cream and hand cream from Lanhuahua Cosmetics Factory, they can only go to the local supply and marketing cooperative warehouse.
Not only is the process cumbersome, but the attitude of the warehouse manager is quite impatient.
But if they go to the Orchid Flower Cosmetics Factory store to purchase goods while they are in Camel City for business, things will become much simpler.
Purchase here. Mine
Whether it's invoicing, collecting money, or picking up goods, it's all done in one stop.
There is also a certain quota of gifts available.
This kind of treatment is not something they can enjoy when they go to the supply and marketing cooperative's warehouse to purchase goods.
The gifts distributed by Lanhuahua Cosmetics Factory to supply and marketing cooperatives and material stations according to proportions have long been taken away privately by the staff of those units.
How could it possibly fall into the hands of those small consignment store owners?
Therefore, the wholesale turnover of this cosmetics store is actually very high on weekdays.
This promotional event is huge. Mine
There are mountains of gifts from cosmetics factories and various promotional activities in various forms and innovations.
It makes people excited and dizzying when they see it.
The result of this operation is: everyone has already lost their cool and just wants to take advantage of this promotion to stock up on some cosmetics.
Anyway, cosmetics have a long shelf life.
Even if you can’t use it yourself, you can still buy some for relatives and friends.
All things considered, you won't suffer any loss.
The laundry and daily chemical counter of the Second Department Store has a large number of "buy one, get one free" activities.
There was also a song and dance performance at the entrance of the department store.
Interspersed with the activities of the Orchid Flower Cosmetics Factory are raffles, prize drawings, cosmetics quizzes and prizes.
If you wait until the flow of people on site is a little sparse and the number of customers is not that large.
The girls in the cosmetics factory would stand on the stage and throw bags of snake oil ointment, shampoo, and small bottles of trial moisturizers into the audience.
Use this to boost popularity.
How have customers from this period seen this?
Everyone only knows that during the canteen period, you can eat for free.
But they have never seen businesses throwing free stuff into the crowd.
In line with the mentality that if you don't take advantage of it, you will suffer a big loss, Orchid Cosmetics Factory made this crazy operation.
The result is that sales have skyrocketed, and the brand's popularity and reputation have been greatly improved.
It's spring now.
Many units and departments throughout the Tuocheng area are calling on cadres and workers to go to the countryside to support agriculture.
There are indicators for supporting agriculture, and it’s not up to anyone whether they are happy with it or not.
At the same time, departments related to agriculture still need to hold several meetings to discuss and coordinate fertilizer quotas.
and coordinating the distribution of irrigation water to exploit these issues.
Therefore, during this season, many departments in Tuocheng City focus on purchasing benefits for employees going to the countryside or distributing conference souvenirs.
Since most units will organize cadres and workers to go to the countryside to support agriculture.
Then give them some labor protection gloves, anti-cracking cream to prevent face and hands from cracking, and sunscreen to avoid high altitude ultraviolet rays.
Soap for washing up after farm work, shower gel for bathing, shampoo for washing hair, etc.
As cadres and employees of the unit, it is most appropriate for them to go to the countryside to support the welfare of farmers.
At the same time, it can also reflect the care and concern of the unit leaders for the cadres and workers. Mine
——Be generous to others, the cadres of the unit will be praised, and the employees will be benefited.
Leaders of any unit would be willing to do this kind of thing that is good for everyone.
During this period, the work units like to give out benefits very much, and no matter how hard they try, they have to come up with a reason to give them something.
This is mainly related to the profit distribution mechanism on the unit.
Like some factories and mines with very good profits, no matter how much profit they make, they will eventually turn it over.
If you lose money, apply for funding to extend your life.
In this way, any unit leader likes to provide more benefits to employees. After all, it can get praise from the grassroots cadres and employees in the unit, which is also excellent. Mine
Anyway, it doesn’t matter whether the factory makes more or less, so you don’t have to think about it so much.
this day.
In the office area of Tuocheng No. 1 Department Store, in an office called "Public Service Office", two middle-aged men wearing cadre uniforms and holding briefcases under their arms came.
[Public Service Office is actually the group buying office that was common in supermarkets later. The function of this kind of office is mainly to contact some large units, factories and mines, and be responsible for group buying sales.
After receiving the order, they will also contact the manufacturer or agent and ask the other party to give them a certain discount.]
As soon as the two middle-aged men entered the house.
The staff in the department store office greeted them warmly: "Comrades, sit down, please take a seat."
Wait until another staff member makes tea for the two middle-aged men.
The person in charge of the office asked: "Excuse me, what business do you two come to our unit for?"
"We are from the Purchasing Department and Logistics Department of Jintai Chlor-Alkali Plant."
The visitor took out a letter of introduction and handed it over, and then replied: "The reason for coming here this time is because our factory is going to organize a group of cadres, and the employees will go to the countryside to support agriculture.
So I came to your unit specifically to purchase a batch of skin care products and cleaning products as benefits for them."
The person in charge smiled slightly: "Okay, welcome. I just don't know how much your unit needs to purchase this time?"
Jintai Chlor-Alkali Plant is a "national" brand with tens of thousands of employees in one plant.
At the same time, it is also the largest energy and chemical production enterprise in the entire Tuocheng area.
This factory has its own fire brigade, emergency rescue team, and a large and high-level security department.
In the family area of Jintai Chlor-Alkali Plant, there are many 4-story tube buildings, which include kindergartens, primary schools for employees' children, middle schools for employees' children, employee canteens, clubs, cinemas, parks and amusement parks.
There is a joint security team, a hotel hostel, a large bathhouse, and a central heating boiler room.
This is more than just a factory.
It can be said that it is simply a large community that is completely self-sufficient.
The efficiency of this enterprise is very good, and the employees are generous when buying things.
It can be said
The existence of just such a factory is enough to surpass the entire purchasing power of the members of countless production brigades.
Of course, the person in charge of the Public Service Office of the First Department Store was extremely happy to receive an order from such an organization.
Only one of the visitors replied: "This time we organized a combat team to support the farmers. There are 10 teams in total, and each team has 200 people.
1 serving per person.
Therefore, we are planning to purchase 2,000 sets of washing and skin care products. On this basis, we plan to purchase an additional 200 sets.
As a reward for the cadres and workers who provide logistical support to these supporting agricultural combat teams."
Another person said: "Because this time, our factory's support for farmers was arranged in a hurry.
The time is urgent and the tasks are heavy now.
I wonder if your company can prepare this batch of goods for us before tomorrow afternoon? By then, our factory will send a truck to take it away."
"able."
The person in charge of the office of the First Department Store replied: "This is the advantage of our unit. After all, we are a key unit in the region. When we need to mobilize supplies, we can ask the relevant departments to give priority to our work."
The person in charge of the office smiled and said: "Besides, the warehouse of our department store is very close to the main warehouse of the material station.
As long as your company places an order, we can organize the employees of the company to move the goods over and put them into storage in a short while."
"That's good."
The logistics director of the chlor-alkali plant nodded: "This is the purchase list we issued. Please take a look."
The person in charge of the office took the purchase order and looked at it, and couldn't help frowning: "2,200 bottles of Orchid Flower anti-crack mink ointment, 2,200 bottles of Orchid Flower moisturizing cream, why are all Orchid Flower soaps products?"
"Yeah, what's the problem with that?"
The logistics director of the chlor-alkali plant was puzzled: “As an enterprise like ours, we try our best to support local economic development. This is our unshirkable responsibility and obligation.
Orchid Flower Cosmetics, aren’t they local products from your Tuocheng area?
In terms of procurement, our unit has a requirement: under the condition of the same quality and small price difference, our unit's daily procurement of materials needs to be as local as possible." Mine.
The person in charge of the office of the First Department Store twitched his cheek: "No, there is no problem."
“It’s absolutely necessary!”
The director of the supply and marketing department of the chlor-alkali plant said very seriously: "Our task of supporting agriculture this time is very heavy.
The combat team will take the oath the day after tomorrow and will go to rural areas in various counties to help farmers with spring plowing and production. This will delay the agricultural support operations. I cannot bear this responsibility."
The director of the Logistics Department handed over a piece of agreement, "This is the procurement contract for our unit. Take a look at it first. If there is no problem, please sign and seal it.
After we finish it, we will go to the finance department of the department store and pay the deposit."
Business is coming. Mine
Regardless of whether it is personally beneficial or not, the person in charge of the department store office has no reason to push customers away.
But I know that in my unit, there is currently no office manager who sells orchid flower series products.
He was worried that there would be problems with the supply of goods.
Therefore, the person in charge of the office planned to make a phone call first to confirm whether there was any goods at the supply station.
While he was hesitating, the two middle-aged men from the chlor-alkali plant were urging him.
But at the First Department Store, Deputy Director Bai, who was in charge of sales, walked in: "Comrade Wang, please sign the sales contract.
We are an advanced unit serving the masses, how can we have customers but not take orders?!" Mine
This Deputy Director Bai,
Although he is not as powerful as Director Lou, the head of the First Department Store, he is still the superior of the office manager.
Therefore, the person in charge of the office had no choice but to agree: "Okay, please rest assured, two comrades. Our unit will definitely complete this task with quality and quantity."
Wait until all procedures are completed.
Before leaving home.
Two comrades from the chlor-alkali plant turned around and warned: “Remember, you must have the goods ready for us before tomorrow afternoon.
Otherwise, if it delays our unit's task of supporting farmers this time, don't say that we will be punished.
Even your No. 1 Department Store will never be able to escape!"
Send away the comrades from the chlor-alkali plant.
The person in charge of the department store office quickly ran to Director Lou.
Wait until Director Lou has finished listening to the situation report.
A disapproving smile appeared on his face: "The chlor-alkali factory wants to buy 10,000 units of washing and daily chemical products?
The total purchase amount is just over 70,000 yuan?
Comrade Wang, what are you anxious about?
This group purchase may be an astronomical figure for other daily chemical stores, and it is an amazing big purchase."
Director Lou blew out a smoke ring and said slowly: "But to our unit, what does it mean?
You first organize the workers in the transportation team to prepare the rack trucks and trolleys.
I will call the Materials Bureau right now and ask them to notify the material storage warehouse to start stocking up. When the time comes, you can just go there and load the goods."
The person in charge of the office originally wanted to remind Director Lou: For such a large amount of cleansing and skin care products, if you use products from several brands, there will be no pressure.
Anyway, soap is soap, which brand is different?
But the problem is: they specify a single brand of Orchid Flower.
How could such a large number of products be prepared in the warehouse of the material station?
Even if there are enough anti-cracking creams and soaps from the Orchid Flower brand, there may not be that many expensive moisturizers and whitening creams.
But the person in charge of the office looked back and thought: If he had reminded Director Lou out of good intentions, judging from his willful and stubborn behavior,
I'm afraid I may not be able to do well.
It is very likely that Director Lou will say: Are you teaching me how to do things? If you can, how about you take the position of director?
therefore,
After all, the person in charge of the department store office did not dare to speak.
Throw down the cigarette butt.
Director Lou stood up and shook the phone: "Hey, didn't you hear? Call me the Materials Bureau, Materials Allocation Office."
"Hey, Director Huang? It's me, Old Lou. Our unit needs to allocate a batch of supplies. Could you please take a note?"
"2,200 pieces of Orchid Flower anti-cracking cream, 2,200 pieces of Orchid Flower soap, yes, just the brand of Orchid Flower.
Others, no! What, out of stock?"
On the other end of the phone, the voice of a staff member from the Materials Bureau came: "I'm telling you, Lao Lou, your No. 1 Department Store doesn't usually carry Orchid Flower products.
Whether we have this brand of goods in the warehouse of our material station seems to have little to do with you, Lao Lou, right?
The emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuch is, we are out of stock, why do you still sound like you are burning your ass?"
Director Lou is really anxious now: "Our No. 1 Department Store usually doesn't have goods, but other stores don't buy orchid flower products either?"
"Since they are purchasing goods normally, why don't you have any in your warehouse?
What?
A part of the stock was basically taken away by the Second Department Store?
What a donkey! This isn’t flour and rice, why are they buying so much?!"
But no matter how anxious Director Lou is.
No matter how angry he was about why the Second Department Store purchased so many Orchid Flower products.
After all, this order must be completed!
The chlor-alkali plant is of a very high level.
So high that even the former big leader in the Tuocheng area was not as high as the person in charge of the chlor-alkali plant.
Nowadays, others come to the First Department Store to purchase so many things in order to support the local economy and take care of local businesses.
If something goes wrong in the end and affects the important task of sending the chlor-alkali plant to the countryside to support agriculture,
Whether it's love or reason.
Even the Tuocheng area is untenable and cannot be defended.
When the time comes, the superiors will definitely vent all their anger on the instigator, Director Lou.
The big leaders above were pointed at and scolded by the chlor-alkali plant for delaying the team of 2,000 people from the chlor-alkali plant from going to the countryside to support agriculture?
No need to think about this resentment, even a fool knows it will be terrifying!
By then, the leaders of the Tuocheng area had collectively suffered from the cowardice of the chlor-alkali plant and took a big blame for the First Department Store.
Then Director Lou's fate will probably be to sing a cool song.
