Even when entering the Export Commodities Exhibition and Trading Building, the entrance to the square has not yet opened.
Inside and outside the hall, the impassioned "Welcome March" and "Welcome March" have begun to play.
The sound was loud in decibels.
Even the person who was the most tired last night and slept the most soundly now cannot sleep even a little longer.
Fortunately, anyone who can come to the exhibition and enter the exhibition hall to work as a salesperson.
Indeed, they just say they are called "salesmen".
These people are all outstanding talents who have gone through thousands of selections, gone through numerous assessments, and passed the review.
These people can be selected by the factory and sent to the higher authorities for strict selection.
Their consciousness is very high, their self-discipline and dedication are beyond words!
The moment the music came to mind, everyone felt as if they had been stabbed in the butt by Grandma Rong.
They all jumped up and rushed to the toilet.
Swish, swish, drain out the water, and swish, brush your teeth and wash your face.
It took less than ten minutes to get there, and there were about 23,000 people in the entire huge exhibition hall.
Unexpectedly, no one was missed. They had tidied themselves up neatly, neatly and neatly, waiting for the official opening of the trade fair.
The overseas merchants who slowly entered the Exchange Building Plaza were in a really urgent mood.
Before the store opened, the entrance was already crowded with overseas merchants who wanted to rush into the exhibition hall to see samples and place orders.
Unfortunately, they forgot an important process: the opening ceremony.
Leaders gave opening speeches.
For a trade fair of such high standard and scale, there was no decent opening ceremony.
How can that be done?
When countless loudspeakers stopped playing the welcome march at the same time.
A female voice with clear pronunciation and an unusual standard of Mandarin sounded on the radio: "Dear leaders, distinguished representatives from all walks of life, dear guests, dear friends, gentlemen and ladies, good morning to everyone!"
When the female broadcaster read the draft, there was naturally simultaneous translation.
The sheer complexity of the languages that can be translated simultaneously can be demolished, and the scale of this trade fair is huge.
The overseas guests who came to attend the conference came from a wide range of sources and were huge in scale.
The next process is familiar to everyone.
After hundreds of millions of colorful ribbons were sprayed into the sky, thousands of peace doves were released, and each went back to his own home to find his own mother.
This time, the export trade exhibition was officially announced.
Rumble——
The moment the door to the quiet trading floor was opened, it was like a thunder on the ground.
Don't think that these overseas merchants are accustomed to big events and have developed a calm and leisurely attitude.
Only at this trade fair did everyone know what it means to be impatient and see what it means to be a real rich person: buy, buy, buy!
This is not an exaggeration.
When you think about it, the import and export transaction volume is in the trillions.
You know how strong the demand for China's products will be in this world!
The total turnover of this trade fair was only equivalent to one-thousandth of the market outlook in later generations.
We have been away from the center of the world for too long.
There are only two opportunities to open the window in spring and autumn a year, but we suddenly have to face such a huge demand.
This is equivalent to,
Those overseas merchants will release orders for a whole year, or even for many years to come, in just a few days.
Then you can imagine it.
In the past few days, the huge orders faced by different categories of export commodities will be crazy.
"Beautiful girl, please show me your company's product catalog and quotation, okay?"
The first merchant who came to the booth of "Tianjing Fashion Furniture Factory" today was Wanwan, who wore gold-rimmed glasses and looked somewhat elegant.
Li Li, who was wearing a professional suit, stepped forward to receive him, "Hello, sir, could you please sit down and take a look?"
Wait until the guests are seated.
Li Li bowed slightly and asked: "Hello, sir, would you like coffee or tea?"
"coffee."
The merchant was sitting on a chair in the reception area, looking through the furniture factory's product catalog and quotations for a series of products.
He hummed lightly: "lesssugar."
Li Li folded her hands slightly on her abdomen, smiled and nodded: "Okay sir, please wait a moment."
Then he turned slightly and said to a female employee of the furniture factory: "Comrade Yanjuan, please make this gentleman a cup of coffee with less sugar."
Each manufacturer's booth is equipped with black tea, green tea and coffee.
These are specially distributed by the organizer of the trade fair to the participating manufacturers in accordance with relevant regulations.
Fortunately, these things are special matters and do not require corresponding tickets.
Otherwise, you have to go to the pigeon market to get these things back.
The merchant was a little arrogant at first.
After he looked at the furniture factory's samples and then the promotional brochures, a look of surprise flashed across his face.
"Excuse me, in addition to the children's room series, master bedroom series, and living room and study furniture on the booth, what other products does your factory have?"
The man looked behind his glasses and glanced greedily at the samples displayed on the booth.
Finally, his gaze was firmly fixed on the area behind the booth, which was covered by the gauze. "Excuse me, what is behind that? Can I have a look?"
Li Li turned around and looked at Luo Xuan calmly.
Then he smiled at the man and said, "Sir, do you have any better suggestions for the products of our factory?"
The man was stunned: I haven't expressed my opinion yet, saying whether I admire your product or not.
From the moment I came in, it seemed like I had no opinion at all!
Why did you get better suggestions and go here?
I can't understand it in my heart.
This time, everyone's time is extremely valuable when I come to the meeting, and that person didn't beat around the bush.
Ask him to take out a small and exquisite camera from the backpack he brought with him.
Li Li, who was a little shocked by this new camera, said: "Miss, please take me to the back to visit.
I plan to take a few photos and send them to the president of our company for review before deciding whether to place an order and see if I can give you a big order."
This guy is born with a condescending arrogance.
Perhaps in his mind, he felt that he was superior to the mainlanders. It seemed that as long as he placed an order, he was giving food to Tianjing Fashion Furniture Factory.
Therefore, there was no hint of request in his tone.
It's more like a command.
"Sorry, the products displayed there are all the latest models from our Tianjing Fashion Furniture Factory."
Li Li refused with a smile: "We only display these latest styles to large customers who have business dealings with our furniture factory. They are for high-quality customers."
This person has come to attend several trade fairs.
Every time he visited any booth to take photos, he never encountered rejection.
Unexpectedly.
I have never heard of this before. Judging from the promotional brochure, it was just a county-level enterprise that rejected it.
It was really the first time for him to encounter this kind of situation.
So I felt a little surprised: "What if I insist on visiting your latest models and also want to take pictures?"
Li Li smiled slightly: "That's okay, sir.
However, since you have not purchased any products from our furniture factory, you need to pay an entrance fee of 500 yuan to see the latest models."
"Is that so?"
The man was a little hesitant and said, "Okay, I'll pay you the entry fee. However, the time I spend taking pictures inside may be relatively long.
I just hope that when I take pictures, you can send employees to help move the furniture so that I can take pictures from all angles, okay?"
"No."
Li Li answered quickly this time: "Sorry sir, the 500 yuan admission fee I mentioned does not include taking photos."
The man frowned: "What do you mean, Miss, if I take photos, do I need to pay additional fees?"
Li Li nodded: "Yes sir, if you need to take photos, you will need to pay another 2,000 yuan."
"This is 2000, you count."
The man sat on the chair and pondered for a moment, then took out two stacks of unopened soft sister coins from his wallet and placed them on the table, "It's so strange, I have never encountered such a thing.
"
"Sir, I think you misunderstood."
Li Li glanced at the two stacks of 'Great Unity' placed on the table, but did not reach out to take them and count them, "The 2,000 yuan I mentioned was a knife."
"What!!"
The man was quite surprised: "Green banknotes? Miss, you"
I saw that he wanted to get angry, but his smell of strawberry was too strong.
Even if he gets angry, it seems to be no more serious than acting coquettishly.
I stood up several times and wanted to leave, but in the end I couldn't bear to leave.
The man was still hesitating between leaving or not, getting angry or not.
At this time, several more customers poured into the booth, "Excuse me, do you have a quotation for these furniture?"
"Sorry to bother you. Can I take a look?"
"Excuse me, my Hangmenqu, what is the production capacity of your factory?"
"Sori, can I take a photo?"
When more and more customers came to visit and asked for details, Li Li, who spoke the most fluent English among them all, couldn't care less about this sissy customer.
He handed the man over to Luo Xuan, while Li Li and Li Na were busy receiving other guests.
"Are you from the other side?"
Luo Xuan made eye contact with the man with glasses, "In this exhibition hall, there are booths of 11 other furniture manufacturers. I'm a little curious, may I ask you, why do you have to come to us to take pictures?"
The man replied with a hint of arrogance: "How do you know I'm from the other side?"
Luo Xuan didn't answer him, he couldn't lose the initiative in speaking, "Tainan? Or Taichung, or Taipei?"
"Tainan."
The man with glasses said proudly: "Why, are you here to check my household registration? We don't need a letter of introduction when we go out."
"Go away, you are not welcome here."
Luo Xuan stood up and prepared to turn around to receive other customers.
There are really too many merchants coming to the booth of Tianjing Shixing Furniture Factory.
That's not for any other reason.
Just because there are few exhibiting manufacturers in this exhibition hall, but there are too many buyers coming to purchase.
The merchants on each booth are all on the outer three floors and the inner three floors.
The staff at any booth are extremely busy.
Tianjing Shixing Furniture Factory is like this, and so are others.
It's the same in every house.
"I'll pay for the photo shoot."
The man with glasses gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't it just two thousand US dollars? You count."
He took out a stack of green banknotes from his bag, counted 20 and threw them on the table: "As far as I know, you don't have a banknote detector here. Haha, I just don't know if you can identify these banknotes."
Authentic?”
Luo Xuan stopped,
He bent over and stared at the man with glasses: "Whether I have the ability to identify these green banknotes is my business. However, if you want to take a photo, it will cost you 5,000 dollars."
"You are very cool."
The man with glasses was angry: "You go back on your word, why are you so untrustworthy?"
Luo Xuan chuckled: "When did I promise you that I would let you take photos for 2,000 dollars?"
The man with glasses pointed at Li Li, who was busy working in the distance: "That lady, she has already quoted me the price."
Luo Xuan shook his head: "I'm the one in charge!"
When saying this, Luo Xuan did not forget to imitate the tone of the man with glasses and added "ah".
"Just like this mission, whether it is completed beautifully or not, is it you who has the final say, or your boss?"
"5,000 dollars, do you agree with this price or object? You decide for yourself."
Luo Xuan turned slightly and prepared to receive other customers, "But you'd better beg Mazu and don't let me successfully sign a big customer in Xiangjiang today.
Otherwise, I guess he will probably apply for a design patent in Hong Kong and Taiwan for our latest furniture."
"When the time comes, your factory will probably run into some trouble when trying to imitate these styles."
After saying that,
Luo Xuan turned back again,
He patted the bespectacled man on the shoulder and almost knocked him to the ground: "Also, you have to understand that this is mainland China. We are all called gays. Do you remember the term "no young lady?"
This is the end of the conversation.
The man with glasses has already understood: although the other party comes from the inland area of the mainland, it is a little-known small factory.
But the person in front of me is definitely not that simple.
Not only did he understand the protection of intellectual property rights, but he also saw that he was not a real merchant, but a colleague who came to copy copies.
But I have obviously succeeded in pretending, no matter how I look at it, I look like a merchant who comes to purchase furniture.
So how did the other party see it?
In the end, he became a man with glasses and finally finished shooting a whole roll of Fujifilm, with a total of 36 photos before leaving.
At this time, Li Li, who had already concluded a deal, could take a breather and drink some water.
I saw her drinking water in a hurry and asking curiously: "Brother Luo Xuan, how do you know that person is here to copy copies?"
"This is simple."
"Just by the "Osparin PENF" series camera he was holding in his hand, I was already suspicious, so I asked you to follow our prepared plan and give him a big mouth opening."
Luo Xuan said: "If the company really comes to attend the meeting and places an order sincerely, either their boss will come in person or send a purchasing manager.
These people all have the authority to sign contracts on the spot.
How could he take photos, pay high international fax fees and return to the headquarters, and then let the company's decision-makers make the decision?"
In this period,
It's not as convenient as having fax machines everywhere in later generations.
People who have traveled across the ocean to attend the conference in Yangcheng should contact the headquarters.
Then you have to go to the foreign-related counter of the Post and Telecommunications Bureau and go through a series of complicated procedures before you can contact their headquarters.
There is another way,
That is, after they return to the foreign hotel room, they ask the reception desk to help connect the international long distance call.
But in the end, you still have to go through the post office switchboard, and you can still make external contacts.
It goes back and forth like this.
I waited until their company headquarters to finally decide to sign the contract.
Look back, 嫓
If the company headquarters wants to contact the participating representatives here, it will be a lot of trouble!
Wait until they are done.
Maybe other peers in their country have already obtained the exclusive agency rights for the products of this factory.
So generally speaking,
The merchants who came to the conference basically completed transactions on the spot.
How can it be so verbose!
Anyway, at this period, the products exported by China are of high quality and low price. As long as you can grab the goods, you will not worry about making money when you take them back.
"Previously, you said that our latest models would only be shown to large customers who have cooperation with us."
Luo Xuan explained: "At that time, he still didn't give up. At this time, I was basically sure: he was not a real customer.
If it is a real customer who comes to purchase products, if he is interested in our products, he can place an order on the spot and become our partner.
The novelty of the products we display outside actually far exceed those of our peers."
When Li Li heard this, she immediately understood.
