On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Ning Weimin continued to pay New Year greetings.

On this day, he chose to visit Song Huagui.

It was originally thought that Song Huagui's parents had passed away and the family had no relatives in the capital.

Even if he goes to visit the house by himself, he will not disturb the second boss’s reunion with his relatives for the holidays.

I didn't expect to find out until I called him. It was such a coincidence.

On this day, Song Huagui's nephew, Zou Guodong's family happened to come to visit.

It means that he still disturbed other people's family happiness.

However, because of this, a car came to pick me up.

Song Huagui didn't allow Ning Weimin to push the blame, so he directly tapped Zou Guodong and asked him to be the driver.

In less than half an hour, Zou Guodong drove to the appointed place to pick him up.

And there is no doubt that he was still driving Ning Weimin's original American Jeep.

It stands to reason that these two friends got along day and night in Tokyo, and Ning Weimin's hospitality was quite considerate at that time.

It's just in time for the Chinese New Year, and it should be close to seeing each other again in China.

Unexpectedly, when we met, Zou Guodong didn't even say "Happy New Year".

The nose is not the nose, the eyes are not the eyes, and they start to find trouble.

"Hey, should you drive this car or should I drive it?"

"Open it..."

"I am your leader, can I be your driver?"

"Then I'll open it..."

"You want to regret it. Didn't you say that this car will be used by me alone from now on?"

"Hey, Mr. Zou, we don't want to be stuck at both ends!"

Ning Weimin finally understood that Zou Guodong was deliberately trying to get him into trouble.

I thought to myself that this was like Guo Degang's cross talk. No matter whether he was wearing a hat or not, he would still be slapped in the face.

How unjust we are!

However, there is an old saying in Beijing that if leather pants are worn over cotton pants, there must be a reason.

When Ning Weimin got on the bus again, Zou Guodong, who was full of complaints, began to pour out his bitterness.

Only then did Ning Weimin realize that Zou Guodong's complaint against him actually had some truth to it.

What's going on?

Since returning from Tokyo, Zou Guodong has not been able to catch his breath. He has been overloaded with work and almost fell down from exhaustion.

Although the reason for this is the great domestic economic prosperity, the greater factor should be "blamed" on Ning Weimin.

First of all, Chinese people have had the tradition of wearing new clothes during the New Year since ancient times, and last year the domestic economy was also a year of rapid progress, and ordinary people also received a general salary increase.

So at the beginning of 1986, Pierre Cardon China's business ushered in a new wave of growth.

Not only are clothing sales rising in major domestic cities, but sales of Goldlion and Yi Lad are also booming.

In particular, the discount store that Ning Weimin thought up was selling like crazy.

This was even reported by Beijing TV station's "Beijing News" as a key piece of content related to people's livelihood and economy.

On New Year's Day, sales at Pierre Cardin's discount store in Tianqiao Department Store hit a new high.

In one fell swoop, it broke the single-day sales record of 120,000 yuan since the opening of the new store, and the final sales reached 135,000 yuan in a single day.

Even on normal working days, we can maintain an average daily sales level of 50,000 to 60,000 yuan.

The only thing that makes people worry is that the goods cannot be received, and they are almost sold out of stock.

Therefore, in order not to run out of goods to sell and disappoint the customers who come here.

After discussion, Zou Guodong and Song Huagui tried their best to allocate goods, negotiated urgently with overseas suppliers, and increased the quantity of OEM goods ordered from overseas.

At the same time, we also had to sell some slightly older but flawless authentic products to temporarily fill the shelves.

In this way, discount stores are somewhat similar to duty-free stores.

From the perspective of cost-effective prices, it is almost the only shopping paradise in China that allows ordinary people to pursue international fashion and get close to international famous clothing.

This has further enhanced the popularity, reputation and reputation of Tianqiao Department Store and Pierre Cardin Discount Shop.

Nowadays, this store is not only known to people in Beijing, but also has great appeal to people coming to Beijing from other places. It has made Tianqiao Shopping Center somewhat of a landmark in Wenzhou District.

In addition, the jointly named gold lighter that Ning Weimin and Zeng Xianzi thought about also achieved great success.

In order to celebrate the New Year, a new batch of 666 18K gold tiger stripe lighters were launched in the mainland market. Even though the price is as high as 19,860 yuan, they are also sought after in major cities.

It had only been on the market for a month and a half, and it had already sold four to five hundred units quickly, becoming the latest representative symbol of domestic luxury goods in 1986.

The rest will probably be sold out within a month.

If another gold lighter is released in the second half of the year, the quantity this time will be in the thousands.

For this reason, Goldlion’s boss Zeng even intends to pursue the victory and launch further co-branded gold cigarette cases, gold business card holders and gold tie clips.

This can only be said that the country is large, the population is large, and the market potential is huge. The market for men’s luxury clothing accessories is indeed worth exploring.

No matter how expensive it is, if it is really good, it will still be sold.

Secondly, the most important thing is that in this situation where the company's main business is booming, Zou Guodong, who is already very busy, has to worry about Ning Weimin and other things.

For example, take the Sino-Japanese joint venture to build a factory.

Substantial progress is not important, but urging Japan to allocate funds is the top priority.

As the saying goes, it's safe to put it in the bag, and it's safe to put it in the bag!

Unless the kid's money is actually in his pocket, who can be secure?

Just against the Japanese yen's rise, who knows whether the Japanese will regret it?

For another example, Zou Guodong also promised Ning Weimin that when he returned to China, he would follow Salia's example in adjusting Menimus' business model and forming a new fast food company.

Forget about the troublesome things like organizing supply sources, contacting supply channels, personnel training, and purchasing central kitchen equipment, Zou Guodong couldn't take care of it for a while.

But even if he can get started now, just going through the formalities of a fast food company, selecting a store location, decorating, setting corporate CI and decoration standards, these things are enough for him.

What's more, in addition to this, Zou Guodong and Song Huagui had to go separately to mediate and negotiate with various government departments on real major issues.

The two of them must follow the location designated by Ning Weimin and staking out the land next to the International Trade Center for the company's future building construction, striving to vacate the residents as soon as possible.

All in all, it was really busy.

To be honest, Zou Guodong has no time to even think about how to ensure the quality of trolley suitcases, increase production, reach cooperation with domestic travel agencies, and plan for exhibitions in the new year.

But that's it, I'm still afraid of what will happen.

Because Ning Weimin's travel trolley suitcases were out of stock in Tokyo, he urgently urged the country to rush the goods two years ago.

This is not to add insult to injury, but to slap Zou Guodong on the back of the head unexpectedly.

Not only was Zou Guodong stunned, but his work rhythm was completely disrupted.

It forced him to almost vomit blood, and he almost died of overwork, before he could fill the gap in Ning Weimin's shortage of goods.

How could there be no complaints afterwards?

To be honest, I was so angry that I was just waiting for Ning Weimin to come back and settle the score with him.

So, no matter how you look at it, Ning Weimin is in the wrong and deserves to be scolded.

He is just like a naughty kid who is not afraid of big things, even though it is out of public interest.

But it also caused too much trouble for the family, and in the end it almost all fell on Zou Guodong's shoulders.

So Ning Weimin thought about it and quickly took out a gift to express his gratitude and apologize.

What gift?

A bottle of Yamazaki 12-year-old whiskey and a leather belt given by Yamato Kanko.

Frankly speaking, this bottle of wine was originally prepared by Ning Weimin for Song Huagui's husband Wanman.

He knew that the artist's biggest hobby was smoking and drinking, so in order to cater to his liking, he prepared a bottle of high-end whiskey and a box of Dunhill cigars for him.

As for now, in order to calm Zou Guodong's anger, Ning Weimin had no choice but to make a big move and bring this bottle of wine to deal with the emergency.

But the good thing is that tobacco and alcohol are not cheap and can afford to be split.

Because this bottle of wine was bought by Ning Weimin in the mall, it must be cheaper than the bottle in "Dantes".

There was no one hundred thousand yen, so I spent more than 30,000 yen.

The box of cigars is more expensive, 90,000 yen.

In this case, the two gifts add up to three to four thousand yuan.
