There are no secrets on the Yellow River Road. Overnight, Qin Hao helped Abao regain his place in Zhizhen Garden, and the news of the ban on Boss Li had caused a storm in the city.
"Tsk tsk, you are indeed Mr. Qin. You didn't see the scene last night. As soon as he said this, he ruined Boss Li's celebration banquet."
"That's for sure. Can Mr. Qin's position be easily shaken? That boss Li didn't know where he came from. He wants to challenge Mr. Qin. If you don't give him some clues, who knows how to do it?
How many eyes does the prince have?"
"Not necessarily. I heard that Boss Li is quite powerful. I think when two tigers fight, one of them will be injured."
"Well, Mr. Qin has been in Shanghai for so many years and has offended many people. This time, the ban on Boss Li will have an impact on his reputation. There is no guarantee that someone will not do anything behind his back."
For a time, this incident also became a topic of conversation among the diners on the dining table of the Huanghe Road Hotel. Some were concerned about it as it had nothing to do with themselves, some were in a dilemma, and some were gloating about the misfortune.
.
But who was happiest on the Yellow River Road? It was definitely Lu Meilin. Last night she watched Qin Hao and his entourage walk into the Zhenyuan. She was angry, anxious, but helpless. She originally thought that even Qin Hao would be killed in the Zhenyuan.
The vixen was fascinated.
As a result, Qin Hao went to cause trouble.
Starting from noon the next day, the number of customers in Zhizhenyuan has dropped by half. Zhizhenyuan, which had been unable to book a table at all during the meal, has been reduced to the point where waiters are required to go to the door to attract customers. Even Manager Pan can't
exception.
"Let me tell you, this is about repaying kindness. When Zhizhen Garden opened, Mr. Qin personally came to celebrate it. How much face does this mean?"
"What's the result? How did she do it? What's the relationship between Mr. Qin and Mr. Bao, who are Mr. Bao's customers? How can Mr. Qin watch Mr. Bao suffer as the Chipants brothers who grew up together?"
"There are some people here who just feed unfamiliar white-eyed wolves. She deserves what happened today."
Lu Meilin stood directly at the door and made insinuations, which was considered to be a strong breath of anger from before.
Manager Pan at the gate of Zhizhen Garden was furious, but couldn't find any argument to refute. Li Li still had a calm face, turned sideways, and his eyes only stayed on Lu Meilin for a second or two, then turned and walked into Zhizhen Garden.
Lu Meilin spat on the ground: "Bah, let's see how long you can keep pretending."
Manager Pan followed Li Li anxiously and reported: "Boss Boss, our business has dropped by 60% today. I'm afraid it will be even worse tonight..."
"I understand, you go ahead and do your work first." Li Li ignored him and went straight to the kitchen.
The kitchen, which was usually as busy as a war, was so idle today, with many people chatting away with nothing to do.
When Mr. An saw Li Li, he put his hand in his pocket, walked through the employee passage, and came to the back door of Zhizhen Garden.
The high heels stepped on the tiles, making a crisp clicking sound. Mr. An did not look back, but just sighed: "Isn't the business in the front a lot worse?"
"As expected, Mr. Qin has been operating in Shanghai for many years, and his connections and influence are not comparable to those of Boss Li." Li Li said calmly.
Mr. An lowered his head and smoked a cigarette. After puffing for a while, he shook his head and sighed: "When will Qiang Mujie come?"
"Probably, after the New Year."
"That means there are still nearly two months."
"Boss Li said he would invite his friends to help with the show."
Mr. An said nothing more, put out his cigarette butts, and silently walked into the employee passage. Li Li looked at his back in a daze for a moment.
........
Two days later, Abao drove back to Shanghai after a long journey.
After simply taking a shower at the Peace Hotel, we went straight to Vientiane Square.
"You're back? How's the situation over there?" Qin Hao asked casually while lowering his head to approve documents.
Abao sat down and took a big sip of tea and let out a sigh of relief: "We are already working overtime to produce. Except for the factory environment at Boss Ma's side, the factory environment is a bit worse. There are no problems with the proficiency of the workers and the equipment. I have sent a few
If you are an experienced follower, go over there and keep an eye on it, and the first batch of goods should be available in time for Christmas Eve.”
"Then let's proceed as planned. I'll ask Manager Liu to fully cooperate with you."
When Abao heard this, his eyes were filled with emotion, but soon he thought of another question.
"Have you found out the details about Boss Li?"
"On the surface, he is just a Zhouzhuang clothing business owner with some connections."
Abao's heart moved: "Are you suspicious that there is someone behind him?"
"In business, I seek wealth rather than anger. I have taken advantage of your business and come to me to provoke you. Do you think it is reasonable?" Qin Hao said lightly.
"That is to say, he just wanted to anger you last night..." A trace of guilt flashed in Abao's eyes.
Qin Hao patted him on the shoulder and smiled: "Even if this incident hadn't happened, there would have been other things in the future. Besides, this incident also started because of Xiao Wang. Your business is my business."
"Since some people want to play, then I will play with them to the end."
"I want to see who has the final say in Shanghai!"
Abao put his arm around Qin Hao's shoulders and was full of pride for a moment: "Yes, let's fight them and see who has the final say on Shanghai Beach!"
........
In the next half month, A Bao and Miss Wang put all their energy into the promotion of "Three Sheep".
In addition to traditional media such as television and newspapers, leaflets and big-character posters were also arranged under Qin Hao's suggestion.
For a time, "Sanyang" advertisements appeared in the streets and alleys of Shanghai. Since the leaflets were distributed on a piece-rate basis, the more work you did, the more you got. So many laid-off workers who were distributing leaflets rushed over when they saw someone.
Those eyes are glowing green.
Of course, in order to prevent those who distributed leaflets from throwing away the leaflets casually, Abao also arranged for supervisors. The leaflets would only be considered effective if they were distributed to others.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As for the walls at the corners, they have long been covered with slogans.
“Sanyang T-shirts, made in China by Montagut, are national brands that Chinese people can afford.”
If this were placed twenty years later, such advertising slogans would definitely be prosecuted. Now, no one cares about piracy, let alone this?
Although such pervasive propaganda can easily make people bored, its effect is undoubted. According to conservative estimates, at least one-third of the people in Shanghai have heard of the name "Sanyang".
At least one in ten people has a vague concept of "domestic Montagnard".
Such an overwhelming publicity campaign was supposed to be terrifying, but Qin Hao was not satisfied.
So, a week before Christmas Eve, a T-shirt advertisement shot by Zhao Yazhi appeared on TV.
In 1992, Zhao Yazhi was at the peak of her beauty. Even if it was an ordinary T-shirt, she still looked elegant and graceful, which fascinated thousands of men and women.
However, the reason why Qin Hao asked Zhao Yazhi to endorse "Three Yangs" is that in two months, "The New Legend of White Snake" will be introduced to the mainland.
To describe this show as a crowd-pleaser is not enough to describe its popularity.
"White Snake" will also become a label that will accompany Zhao Yazhi throughout her life.
This is not just fun, three days after the commercial shot by Zhao Yazhi was released, a new commercial was released on TV, this time the protagonist is "Fei Xiang".
Although "A Fire in Winter" has been burning for five years, Fei Xiang is still the most influential and well-known Hong Kong and Taiwan star in the mainland in the 1990s.
Countless young men and women look to his clothes to dress themselves up. In their eyes, Fei Xiang represents fashion, or to use a more down-to-earth word: foreign style.
As for Boss Li and Fan Xinhua, they initially thought of competing with the "Three Sheep" in the public opinion battlefield, but when Qin Hao unleashed his two big moves, they were completely stunned.
They can imitate flyers and big-character posters, but Hong Kong and Taiwan stars, especially those with absolute influence like Fei Xiang and Zhao Yazhi, are not so easy to hire.
Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities in the 1990s still paid great attention to their style and generally would not endorse mainland brands in advertisements. After all, mainland brands these days generally give people the impression of being cheap.
The reason why Qin Hao was able to invite Zhao Yazhi and Fei Xiang was thanks to Hema's status in Hong Kong. In addition, Hema had officially submitted its listing application and would soon be a listed company. Qin Hao's status naturally increased.
Of course, Boss Li and Fan Xinhua also thought of some ways. Since Hong Kong and Taiwan stars couldn't be invited, they would invite stars from the mainland.
The "Black Panther Band" that just exploded last year was invited by Boss Li. I have to say that this Boss Li is still very capable. At first, "Dou Wei" did not intend to accept this advertisement. These guys who play rock and roll, a
He is a very rebellious person, and he is not willing to give up for five buckets of rice.
But when Boss Li poured 500,000 in cash in front of them, these guys were all dumbfounded.
What was the concept of five hundred thousand in 1992? You could buy ten houses in Puxi, and if you were in Pudong, you could buy a piece of land directly.
Throwing a lot of money down, no matter how rebellious you are, you have to give in, so the Black Panthers filmed their first commercial in their lives.
At the beginning, Boss Li was very proud, why didn't he give in for five buckets of rice? In the end, he didn't just give in.
But when Boss Li saw the samples, he almost lost his breath. Each of these rockers had weird hairstyles, T-shirts, and a bunch of weird accessories. They looked like they were in a strange style.
Except for Dou Wei, who was a little bit normal, the others simply didn't notice.
Boss Li was furious and asked to re-shoot. As a result, the filming process was also ups and downs. It was supposed to be completed in one or two days, but it took five days to shoot, and the final product was not satisfactory.
"Damn, Hong Kong and Taiwan celebrities are expensive. At least they are dedicated to their work."
Fortunately, Black Panther's "Shameless" is still very popular. After the commercial aired, the "Shanshan" brand has indeed gained some popularity among the younger generation.
The distribution of goods by Boss Li and Fan Xinhua has been basically completed, and the Hulian Commercial Building and the clothing company are ready.
Moreover, Boss Li also deliberately chose the day before "Sanyang" was launched to launch sales first.
Just before Christmas Eve, Hulian Commercial Building invited the Black Panthers to the venue. According to Ms. Wang's description, the scene was so crowded that the roof of the entire Hulian Commercial Building was almost lifted off.
It is said that "Shanshan" sold more than 3,000 T-shirts that day.
"Didn't you see that Mr. Fan's mouth was almost crooked when he smiled? He made me so angry!" Miss Wang said angrily.
Qin Hao smiled and reassured: "Don't worry, they won't be able to dance for a few days."
After saying that, Qin Hao looked at Abao: "How is the stocking situation?"
As for sales, Qin Hao actually has nothing to worry about. The early publicity and the channel advantages of Vientiane Plaza are unmatched by others.
The only disadvantage at the moment is stocking up. After all, it has only been about twenty days since Boss Ma received the order.
"The first batch of 30,000 T-shirts have been put into storage and should be able to last for a while." Abao was a little helpless because time was still too short.
Qin Hao frowned: "Thirty thousand, just thirty thousand. Say hello to Boss Ma. The second batch of goods must be delivered within a week."
"Well, I've already told him."
On Christmas Eve night, Nanjing Road was brightly lit, and the trees along the street were hung with neon lights. Tomorrow is Christmas, and businesses are ready to welcome a wave of consumption.
As the most popular shopping mall in Shanghai, Vientiane Plaza is naturally crowded with people, but there are especially many people in Vientiane Plaza today.
The reason is also very simple. The TV commercial has been broadcast. Fei Xiang will come to Vientiane Plaza tonight to spend Christmas Eve with everyone.
Since six o'clock in the afternoon, Vientiane Square has been overcrowded, and the stage in the first floor hall is even more crowded.
As the time came to seven o'clock, the lights in the hall of Vientiane Square suddenly dimmed a few degrees.
Immediately afterwards, several gorgeous lights hit the center of the stage.
"You are like that fire..."
As Fei Xiang's singing suddenly came to mind, the entire hall screamed and cheered.
"Fei Xiang, Fei Xiang!"
"Fei Xiang, I love you!"
Looking at the crowd who were completely led by Fei Xiang, Abao unconsciously started to twist along with the music. Miss Wang even took Qin Hao's arm and started dancing, which made Qin Hao move his index finger.
At the end of the song, Fei Xiang did not leave the stage after the curtain call, but shouted to the excited crowd: "Thank you everyone, and thank you Mr. Qin. Mr. Bao invited me to attend Sanyang's press conference today. Did you see it?
What I’m wearing is the Sanyang brand.”
As a mixed-race Fei Xiang, in addition to being handsome, he also has a perfect figure. It can be said that he is a natural dresser. Even ordinary clothes will become fashionable when worn on him.
What's more, Sanyang is completely imitated by Montagut. As a foreign brand, Montagut is far ahead of domestic brands in terms of design.
"How much does Sanyang cost? I want one too."
"Give me one, no, two."
"I want three pieces, not five, one of each color."
Thanks to Fei Xiang's vigorous publicity, Sanyang's store was suddenly surrounded.
Abao looked at the customers who kept pouring into the specialty store, and his anxious heart finally relaxed.
