"Ah, Director, are you exaggerating? Isn't it so magical?"

Seeing Ning Weimin looking a little ecstatic, Xiangchuan was a little unconvinced.

Unexpectedly, Taniguchi responded with a rhetorical question, and she seemed even more confused than herself.

"Hey? Miss Kagawa, haven't you tried it at home? Until now...haven't you tasted it?"

Just the look of genuine regret for her on his face proved that what he just said was without water.

"Well, I really haven't had time to try it myself. If I want to cook, I'm afraid I have to wait until the weekend. In the past few days, I have been preparing materials for next month's clothing show, and I have to work overtime every day.

so late……"

Regarding the sincere Taniguchi, Xiangchuan explained a few words awkwardly, then remembered something else, and couldn't help but thank him again and again.

"By the way, Director, I would like to thank you today. Thanks to your help, otherwise, if those hundreds of documents were not prepared, I am afraid I would have..."

Taniguchi smiled kindly, but waved his hands repeatedly and kept saying "It's okay" to stop Kagawa from being polite anymore.

"Hey, don't say that, it's just copying some documents. I'm the best at doing these simple tasks. If you are assigned such tasks that make you distressed again in the future, Miss Kagawa, I will handle them all.

, No problem. Just concentrate on the important work. Don’t be discouraged. Even if everyone in the planning class deliberately makes things difficult for you, you should work hard and persevere.”

However, Ning Weimin's remark instantly turned off Xiangchuan, who was moved by Taniguchi's encouragement.

"Hey, are you really isolated? Kagawa, it's just as I expected. It's not just Kawasaki who is targeting you this time, right? I've advised you not to be too persistent in your efforts at work. You're asking for trouble..."

"Cough...cough...Ning...Ning Sang!"

Kagawa Rinko almost spit out the sip of beer she just put into her mouth, and finally stopped coughing.

"Why do you say that? Do you mean that I have to be lazy to be reasonable?"

Looking at Xiangchuan, he frowned and made a serious face.

Mangukou was also quite surprised, with a wry smile on his face, wondering why Ning Weimin still sprinkled salt on Xiangchuan's wounds.

"Deputy Minister, you...what are you?"

Ning Weimin took out a cigarette and handed one to Director Taniguchi, while smiling and comforting Kagawa.

"Xiagawa, don't be angry. Listen to me and tell you slowly, and you will understand. First of all, as a woman, you have such a strong working ability and work so hard. Don't you compare other colleagues to idiots? Japan is currently

The social environment in China is one where machismo is prevalent. You don’t know this, so how can men’s self-esteem endure it?”

"Also, you just keep your head down and do things, but don't bother to think about your interpersonal relationships. This is a big mistake. No matter how hard you work, it only makes sense if you are seen by people who are willing to promote you. Now the only people around you who are jealous of you are

Does it make sense if your colleagues and the boss who bullied you can see it? Will they put in a good word for you?"

"Finally, other female colleagues will not have a good impression of you. They are jealous of you and do not understand you. They will definitely use unpleasant words to talk about you behind your back. You said that since the effort is meaningless, why do you work so hard?

?And the more complicated things are, the more help they need from a team. If no one helps you, but there are many people who deliberately make things difficult for you, how can you possibly get it done?"

Indeed, although Ning Weimin's words may not sound pleasant, they are heart-warming and go straight to the core issue.

Not to mention that Kagawa was stunned and unable to argue, even Director Taniguchi was in awe.

"Well... it seems... it makes sense... Miss Kagawa, the deputy minister's words are worth considering carefully..."

As expected of a good old man, Taniguchi saw that the atmosphere was a bit stiff, so Taniguchi took out a handkerchief to wipe his sweat while trying to smooth things over, fearing that Kagawa wouldn't be able to accept it.

And Xiangchuan can still tell the difference between good and bad after all.

Although she was in a gloomy mood, she took another drink from the wine glass, but still admitted that Ning Weimin's words made sense.

"Ning Sang, you are right, I admit it. But the question is, besides working harder, what else can I do?"

"Don't be so pessimistic. Let me give you a suggestion."

Ning Weimin smiled, blew out a smoke ring and said, "Actually, I have thought about your matter seriously. I think you need to adjust your efforts and stop focusing on the work in hand.

And don’t hope for recognition in a men’s group. Instead, focus on the women you interact with regularly at work.”

"Designers, models, agents, female employees of the company, you can't be the only woman pursuing a career, right? What's more, since work intersects and many people have the same needs as you, then under certain conditions, everyone is

We can help each other. Since you are a woman, your gender is both your disadvantage and your advantage. You can't change the general environment, and you can't fight against it, so you have to go with the flow."

"On the other hand, although the workplace is dominated by men, the fashion industry is the industry with the highest level of participation of women, and there are a lot of gender blind spots that men cannot reach. That is your opportunity. If you get the support of a large number of women in the industry, you

The importance of it will be highlighted. By then, it will be impossible for the company to turn a blind eye to you, and it will no longer be indifferent to you."

As soon as Ning Weimin finished speaking, before Xiangchuan could respond this time, Director Taniguchi had already applauded and praised him highly.

"Miss Kagawa, the deputy minister's strategy is amazing. Based on my experience, this is a wise saying, and it may be able to solve your troubles."

"Huh? Is this a dead end in the industry? This seems to be..."

While Xiangchuan was murmuring, his eyes were wandering, as if he was greatly inspired and touched.

It wasn't until she was silent for a long time and drank all the beer in her cup that she finally realized that she should express her gratitude.

"Thank you, Ning Sang. After listening to your analysis, I seem to have found the direction."

But she didn't forget it here, because her gratitude was not limited to words, she could also reciprocate.

This, in turn, also surprised Ning Weimin.

"Then as a thank you for your troubles, let me give you an idea. Maybe it can solve the sales channel problem of Ningsang's trolley suitcases in Tokyo..."

"What? My troubles? Sales channels? You...you have a solution?"

Ning Weimin was surprised, and then his face beamed with joy, "Great, please tell me, I will definitely listen."

Kagawa Rinko did not speak this time, but opened her purse and took out a magazine-like booklet and pushed it over from the table.

Then he stared at Ning Weimin with meaningful eyes.

Ning Weimin took the brochure in his hand and looked at it carefully, and found that it was an advertising brochure for the "Riqian" company.

After opening it, there are all kinds of colorful and dazzling daily necessities inside.

It looks a bit like a future domestic IKEA brochure.

But there are differences. The biggest difference is that the layout of the inside pages of all magazines is divided into two, and the advertising content and the product order form are actually combined into one.

The upper part is the product information, and the lower part is the "Order Product Delivery Requirements" column. Each of the two parts occupies a certain space and can be folded or torn apart, just like an order contract is attached to the advertisement.

"Is this... postal sales?" Ning Weimin's eyes lit up and he looked at Rinko Kagawa eagerly.

It was then that Rinko Kagawa truly revealed the mystery.

"Ningsang is really awesome! I saw the essence of the channel at once. Yes, this is indeed a commercial retail model that uses the postal system to deliver advertising and delivery, uses the Postal Savings Bank for settlement, and sells daily necessities, but

The correct term is 'catalog sales'."

"This sales method was introduced from overseas. It refers to selling by mailing catalogs to carefully selected consumers or equipping shopping malls with catalogs. Compared with the traditional sales model, the advantage is that customers do not need to visit shopping malls or leave home.

You can browse a wide range of products through advertising brochures, which can save you physical strength and a lot of time. And because it is directly supplied by the manufacturer, the price will be lower than similar products sold in shopping malls. Therefore, even though it was launched only a few years ago, it has already become popular in Japan.

It has become popular in big cities. It is a very fashionable new sales method."

"However, it should be noted that food and fragile goods that require a shelf life, as well as clothing, are not suitable for this sales method. Because mail ordering is time-consuming, there is a possibility of accidents during transportation. As for clothing, due to size issues, frequent

It is also inconvenient to replace goods, which will not only incur excessive postage costs, but also make it difficult to satisfy customers."

"As for this Nichisen company, it is currently one of the largest catalog sales companies in Tokyo. They regularly deliver dozens of catalogs and hundreds of leaflets to their customers every year. Tokyo housewives like to see this the most.

Sales catalog. There are indeed many orders placed. If you want to sell through this method, just contact this company and pay the advertising fee..."

Xiangchuan took the trouble to explain in detail, describing the advantages and disadvantages of this catalog sales business model as objectively and truthfully as possible, fearing that Ning Weimin would not understand.

But the problem is that there is no essential difference between the nature of this thing and future online shopping. How could Ning Weimin, as an experienced online shopping user, not understand this operating model?

What's more, he already knew five years ago that he would use magazine advertisements in China to sell fish farming technology in exchange for monkey tickets.

He even knows better than Kagawa what the identities of the Post Office, Postal Savings Bank, advertising platforms and manufacturers are, and the roles each of these roles play in this model.

All in all, this is a miracle created by the four parties of production, logistics, information, and financial security.

The source of profits lies in reducing the operating environment and reducing commercial, storage and sales costs.

But Ning Weimin never expected that Japan had already professionalized and formalized mail ordering in the 1980s.

Placing sales advertisements on this kind of platform is of course more efficient and more effective than the random advertising of tofu cube news in newspapers and magazines in China.

You don’t know, the world is really amazing!

It is hard not to sigh that Japan is indeed at the forefront of the times in this era.

Although in the future, this sales model that Japanese people have become accustomed to may be like credit cards, but it will also hinder the development of Internet shopping in Japan.

But at this time, there is no doubt that Japan is leading the world in commercial technology!

To put it bluntly, this is Taotao that appeared in Tokyo thirty years in advance!

This even gave Ning Weimin additional business inspiration if he could bring this model into the country and replicate it.

Can I seize the direct selling market in advance of the Internet era?

Do I still need to wait to take advantage of Taotao and Dongdong in the future?

I will become the industry leader!

A blue sea and sky...
