C34 First Negotiation
Xiao Yingxia then said to Kang Ying, "Manager Lee's customer has left. I'll go and see if he's free. If you're free, you can see him."
After this exchange, Xiao Yingxia had an instinctive appreciation for Kang Ying, so she took the initiative to help her.
Sure enough, after the customers had dispersed, Xiao Yingxia went into the manager's office and said to Kang Ying after she came out:
"Manager Lee said that he's free, you can go see him now."
Kang Ying thanked Xiao Yingxia and headed for the manager's office. Xiao Yingxia followed her. She was going to bring Kang Ying to see Manager Lee.
Xiao Yingxia knocked on the Leader's office door respectfully. Kang Ying felt an inexplicable sense of nervousness in her heart.
This was the first 'big business' she had to discuss since her rebirth. Success or failure would be decided in one blow.
Speaking of which, she was a newborn calf that wasn't afraid of a tiger. Otherwise, with the weak personality of the original owner Kang Ying, she would have been so afraid of Fu Xinlang.
No, the original owner Kang Ying probably didn't even have the thought of coming alone to see Manager Lee, let alone having a 'business' conversation with Manager Lee.
From Manager Lee's side, Kang Ying was not only talking about an empty-handed business, but she was also talking about a possible "business" that could change the state enterprises in Lu County. It could be said that the difficulty was extremely high! At present, Kang Ying only relies on Manager Lee's article in the "Qujiang Daily News".
Kang Ying secretly took a deep breath and encouraged herself to only win and not lose. She must put on a good show to persuade Manager Lee.
"Come in." After Xiao Yingxia knocked on the door, a dignified voice came from inside.
Xiao Yingxia gently opened the door and led Kang Ying inside. She said to the middle-aged man seated behind the desk,
"Manager Lee, this is Kang Ying, Kang, who wants to see you."
Xiao Yingxia personally brought Kang Ying to Manager Lee's office and introduced her to him. Xiao Yingxia was the Deputy Director of the office and usually dealt with Manager Lee every day.
Manager Lee couldn't help but guess Kang Ying's identity, as well as her relationship with Xiao Yingxia.
Kang Ying saw that Manager Lee's eyes had become a bit more focused and knew that Xiao Yingxia's introductions had quite a bit of weight.
As expected, his conversation with Xiao Yingxia hadn't been in vain. Xiao Yingxia had a favorable impression of him, and she was happy to introduce him to Manager Lee. This was the benefit of spending effort to deal with others.
Therefore, Kang Ying followed suit and introduced herself:
"Manager Lee, hello, I'm Kang Ying. I heard that our company is currently experimenting with a reform. As a businessman, I have the audacity to come to you because this is a good opportunity for both of us."
This unusual opening remark immediately attracted Manager Lee's interest. The beginning of his appointment as a new official was the moment when the new official would show off his talents.
Now that the national corporate reform was in full swing, he also wanted to be successful in this area. However, he was always worried that he couldn't find the right starting point.
He stood up from behind his desk and said enthusiastically to Kang Ying, "It's someone from a good family. Come, take a seat over here. We can talk while we make tea."
Seeing that Kang Ying and Manager Lee were connected, Xiao Yingxia left politely. Of course, she couldn't close the door because a man and a woman had to avoid suspicion. This was the detail that Office Director wanted to pay attention to.
Manager Lee poured hot water from a hot water bottle and personally brewed two cups of green tea. He then handed one cup to Kang Ying on the tea table.
Meeting each other and making tea was the way southerners treated their guests, which also showed the importance their masters attached to them.
Kang Ying knocked on the table three times with her index finger in front of the teacup, expressing her gratitude.
"Looking at your young age, I wonder how many years you have been doing business? What advice do you have on corporate reform? "
Kang Ying smiled and said, "I've only been in business for a short period of time, but I came to your door because I saw Manager Lee's article in the Daily Qu Jiang newspaper."
As Kang Ying spoke, she showed the article about General Chamber of Commerce to Manager Lee, to prove that she had really read it.
Of course, she just read the article in the office, Manager Lee didn't know about it anyways. As for Xiao Yingxia, who knew the situation, Manager Lee wouldn't exchange details like when Kang Ying saw the article with her.
"Oh? What do you think of this article? "
Manager Lee's interest was piqued. This article was meticulously made by him, and it could only be published with the approval of his superiors. However, he was also quite proud of himself for being able to get the admiration of a beautiful reader.
"I think the ideas you've put forward in this article are very close to the trend of the times, but theory is theory, and the best thing is to turn theory into practice, starting with your subordinate enterprises, boldly carry out reforms, and practice the ideas you've put forward in this article.
I have understood the Friendship Mall of General Chamber of Commerce s, their operating profit this year is 450 thousand, I intend to take over your shopping mall and double the operating profit. I think it's a way for us to win together. "
Manager Lee didn't expect this young girl to ask so much about contracting the state's shopping mall, so he couldn't help but reveal a surprised expression.
Friendship Mall had been established for many years. In the era of planned economies, a place like Friendship Mall, which supplied supplies, was a hot spot. Those who were able to do so would all be sent to this place …
So far, there are 108 employees in the shopping mall, 68 of them are retired, and the number of retired workers even exceeds the number of current employees.
The salaries, benefits, and medical expenses for these 108 employees were all a heavy burden. Every year, the profits from the shopping mall was not enough for them to pay the salaries. When Manager Lee took over, he would take over a mess like Friendship Mall.
He didn't expect that the first person who asked to use Friendship Mall as a "tool" would actually be this young lady in front of him, Kang Ying.
Although Manager Lee was happy inside, when he saw that Kang Ying was so young and didn't know where she came from, he immediately started to beat his drum again. He asked Kang Ying,
"If you want to contract Friendship Mall, do you have a specific plan? How much is the contract fee? " Manager Lee asked.
"Give me 10 years, and in the first year, I'll pay 500 thousand, from now on I'll pay 50 thousand every year. What do you think?"
Kang Ying's calm demeanor was in contrast with her young appearance. However, her calmness made her extremely persuasive. With her comprehensive charisma acting up, Manager Lee somehow felt that he could trust Kang Ying.
"About this, we need to have a meeting to study it. Enterprise reform is a big matter, and it involves many aspects. It is not something that I can decide on alone."
