Chapter 31: Be Thoughtful
Seeing Zhao Guoyang's confused look, Ma Jian smiled meaningfully and said, "Why, Guoyang, don't understand this again? Do you think we had a meal with several ministers of the Siyang Group at noon and really confirmed the order?"
"What we do in sales is that we are 'no sound'. Only the promise of signing a contract can count. Especially at the wine table, some words cannot be taken seriously."
Ma Jian sighed and said with emotion: "Of course, today, Minister Liang of the Siyang Group's technical director and Minister Zhang of the Procurement Department were all there, and the intention to sign a contract with our factory has basically been reached, and nothing should happen. But if we mean it, we will still get the position."
"No, have you seen the four packaging bags over there? There are some gifts I just selected. Tomorrow we will find an opportunity to send them to some masters and try to sign the contract early. In this way, I feel at ease..."
Zhao Guoyang was a little dizzy when he was guided by Ma Jianyitong. In fact, he certainly understood public relations. In his previous life, he was invited by some companies to give lectures and discuss cooperation, and was also "public relations" by others.
But what Zhao Guoyang did not expect was that this kind of thing had become popular in the early 1990s during the cooperation process. It seems that he was still a little aware of this.
Suddenly remembering something, Zhao Guoyang asked in confusion: "Director Ma, Minister Liang, Minister Zhang, and Vice Minister Wang, there are only three people, why should we prepare four gifts?"
Ma Jian smiled and shook his head and said, "Guoyang, your technical level is beyond reproach, but you still have to learn more about human relationships and worldly affairs... Think about it, there are two ministers in the Technical Department, so there is no procurement department? This time, I thank you for your blessing and met the top leader of the procurement department. But last time, when I came, I only met Deputy Minister Ding of the procurement department."
"Although we directly took the line from Minister Zhang this time, can we get around Deputy Minister Ding? In the future, the two companies cooperate more and more, and the main person responsible for connecting with small factories like ours must be Deputy Minister Ding. We can't lose the big picture because of small things."
Zhao Guoyang was really reluctant to pay attention to these activities in the procurement and sales industry. After listening to Director Ma’s teachings, he said with a look of teaching: “I understand, Director Ma, you are still considerate!”
Ma Jian was a little happy when he heard Zhao Guoyang say this. He patted Zhao Guoyang on the shoulder and said, "This is called a professional expertise. Although Guoyang is a skilled person, you must understand some of this. This time you have made great contributions to the factory, and the deputy section chief will definitely not be able to escape after you go back. In the future, it may take a few years to do these public relations matters on behalf of the factory."
Zhao Guoyang naturally said a few words of humility to Ma Jian. In fact, deep down, he was still a little happy about the fact that he was about to become a formal cadre.
It’s not that becoming a formal cadre is such a great honor for him. But the benefits of this economic interest are really hard for Zhao Guoyang to refuse.
Zhao Guoyang, who had never worried about money issues in his previous life, was already scared of poverty in this life. With a hundred thousand soldiers in his heart, he was unable to show off his strength due to the capital problem, which really made him feel a little uncomfortable.
...
The next morning, Ma Jian and Zhao Guoyang got up early. The two of them scrambled to the time and went to Minister Wang Hongxi's office before most of them went to work.
Wang Hongxi was somewhat surprised that the two of them came to visit him so early. However, when he saw a paper bag stuffed from Ma Jian's backpack, he understood.
Ma Jian smiled and said, "I brought some tea and tobacco from my hometown. I don't know if it's in line with Minister Wang's wishes. You can try it alive..."
"Director Ma is so polite!" Wang Hong took the thing with a smile, but didn't refuse.
After chatting for a while, Ma Jian and Zhao Guoyang bid farewell to Wang Hongxi and came to Liang Hongjun's office again.
Liang Hongjun had just started work, and after seeing the two, he warmly greeted them to sit down and have tea.
While drinking tea, Ma Jian took out another paper bag and wanted to stuff it to Liang Hongjun.
"Oh, this is impossible!" Liang Hongjun saw Ma Jian take out the paper bag, and naturally understood what it meant, and retreated repeatedly.
"It's just a little specialty from my hometown, Minister Liang, don't refuse..." Ma Jian said a little embarrassedly.
Liang Hongjun forced the thing back to Ma Jian's backpack, held his hand and shook it: "Director Ma, I appreciate the kindness. But I really can't accept this thing. If you want to thank me, just bring Xiao Zhao to our factory for a walk in the future and give us valuable suggestions!"
Liang Hongjun said this not only gave Ma Jian a step forward, but also further pointed out the importance of Zhao Guoyang.
Ma Jian naturally understood it when he heard this: "Ah, Minister Liang, don't worry. Didn't you say that the bent beam car is a big project. If the frame is really successfully trial-made in our factory, he will definitely go to the Siyang Group in Guoyang in the future."
"Haha, okay, that's good, that's good!" Liang Hongjun turned to Zhao Guoyang with a smile, "Comrade Xiao Zhao, I'm sorry, I'm going to be a business trip for a lot of trouble."
Zhao Guoyang nodded to the technical minister with some gratitude and said, "It is my honor to be able to come to Siyang Group to study frequently. Thank you Minister Liang for giving me this opportunity."
Liang Hongjun really liked Zhao Guoyang, a talent. After chatting for a while, he instructed his subordinates to sort out a general drawing of the frame of the bent beam truck and all the parts drawings and handed them over to Zhao Guoyang.
In fact, when many motorcycle manufacturers communicate with frame supporting factories, they basically only give a general picture, part picture, etc., and they need to draw the supporting manufacturers themselves.
Liang Hongjun's atmospheric approach undoubtedly saved Hongda Machinery Factory and Zhao Guoyang a lot of trouble.
After handing over everything, Liang Hongjun shook hands with Ma Jian and Zhao Guoyang and said goodbye.
"Director Ma, Comrade Xiao Zhao. You will sign the contract at the procurement department later and you will have to catch the train, right? I won't keep you more! Anyway, we will have more opportunities to meet in the future, right?"
"Yes, yes, Minister Liang is too right, that's the reason!" Ma Jian nodded repeatedly.
