I am the production director of a well-known catering. This position is a position with great power and abundant wealth!
Anyone who is a direct store under the company, all suppliers of dry goods, seasonings, cold chain food, vegetables and meat products, and lard must be decided after I inspect the market.
So, there are often suppliers who come here to give me gifts or invite me out for food, drink and fun.
Although I couldn't stand their sugar-coated shells, I still kept my heart.
The difficulty of starting a business with the chairman is still vivid in my mind!
The chairman of the board of directors established an empty shell subsidiary and did not have a direct store under his name. When he opened his first direct store, he told me that he was short of money and asked me how much I could invest.
I didn’t have much money at the time, but my dad had a real estate under his name. After discussing with my dad, I used the real estate as mortgage and borrowed hundreds of thousands of yuan and invested it.
As the first store returned to its capital, the second store began to open in full swing. Until nine direct stores were opened in one go and more than 50 franchise stores were invested, our company finally made some progress.
is a matter of lightness, but it took us seven or eight years to adhere to the principle of being a person before doing things and pursuing quality. Only then can we always stand at the forefront of the catering industry and never fall!
Although we are now at the stage of enjoying happiness, we cannot relax ourselves too much and manage all aspects too much. Otherwise, no matter how strong the city is, it will collapse from the inside.
So in the face of the suppliers' sweet words and sugar-coated shells, I could only turn a blind eye to it, after all, I was not upset!
However, there is an exception to a supplier, because she is a woman and a very beautiful woman, so I broke the defense.
One morning, because it was my vacation day, I planned to go to the vegetable market to buy some vegetables and then go home to develop a new cuisine.
When I passed by a vegetable stall, I happened to find a female vendor who was very beautiful, so I looked at her a few more times.
I thought to myself: "I didn't expect such a beautiful woman to come out to sell vegetables?"
After all, this is a chore. In addition to going out early and returning late, she also has to load and unload goods, which is not easy!
Out of curiosity, I planned to buy some vegetables at her stall. Anyway, I also want to buy vegetables, it's the same as anyone else.
What I didn't expect was that as soon as I walked into her stall, she recognized me at a glance.
"It's you, Mr. Yi? Are you here to buy vegetables? Or come for research?"
She looked at me with a happy face.
I replied calmly, "I'm resting today, and I'm planning to buy some vegetables and go back to study a few new dishes."
She stared at me and smiled: "Haha! No wonder Mr. Yi is so young and so young and promising! It turns out that he is still studying new dishes when he takes a vacation!"
I smiled: "What's the matter? I have to eat when I'm off at home anyway, right?"
I looked at her while working, and asked, "By the way, I don't seem to know you, but how do you know me?"
At this time, she happened to put all the dishes neatly, so she hurriedly wiped her hands with a towel, then took out a pack of cigarettes from her denim pocket and smoked a cigarette for me.
She looked at me and explained, "I have been to your company's office! I have always wanted to be your supplier, but you were not there at that time. Those people said they would talk to Mr. Yi, so I asked Mr. Yi who he said, and they asked me to read the company's development history and the introductions of several key people. Because you are so young and promising, I took a photo of yours and kept it in my phone! If you don't believe me, please look!"
After she finished speaking, she took out her phone again, opened the album of the phone, and took out my photos for me to see.
I glanced at her stall and said casually: "We are such a big company, with nine direct stores, do you think you have the strength to win?"
I was not deliberately snatching her, but to be honest, after all, her stall was there, and there was only a little bit.
She was stunned for a few seconds, then covered her mouth and smiled, "Haha~ Mr. Yi, you are really good at joking. Don't look at my small stall, but in fact! She is quite powerful!"
"Oh? Is that right?"
It was my turn to be surprised, thinking to myself, "Can I underestimate the world?"
She nodded and said seriously: "I have a cousin who grows vegetables in greenhouses. Whenever I go to get goods, it will be the same as the same thing. The pros are cheaper, so if I supply the product to your company, I can also lower the price a little. What do you think? "
I pursed my lips and smiled at her: "This replacement supplier is not just a matter of changing it. When will I think about it, let's contact us again!"
"Oh! OK, this is my business card. If you think it through, just call me again."
She handed me a business card with a little disappointment.
I took the business card and took a look. It said 'Vegetable Wholesale He Hui' and her phone number!
"He Hui, Hui in Hui's show, is indeed a good name."
I put away her business card, so I bought some vegetables from her.
When I was going to pay, she refused to accept it. However, I still calculated how much I needed to pay according to the quotation given by the current supplier. So I scanned the QR code on her stall and insisted on giving the money.
Because I never like to owe favors, especially since I can clearly not owe favors to others, why should I owe favors?
If this is the case, how can I take the initiative when I talk to others next time? After paying
, I left her stall and went to the stall selling pork.
Actually, I didn’t plan to change to another supplier at all, after all, there are too many involvements here.
I thought I would only meet her one time, but who would have thought that later we had something that shouldn't have happened to us...
