Chapter 2 Entering SH for the first time

Before the morning meeting of the business department, Wang Yiyuan usually goes to the company's production workshop first. Today, Xingzhong Company's cosmetics boxes are going to ship, and there are still a few proofs, so he has to check them out.

This is a habit that Wang Yiyuan has formed over the years of work. He requires himself to be aware of everything he is doing at any time.

At the front desk of the warehouse, business assistant Kobayashi is making an order. Xingzhong Company’s cosmetics box has been packaged and neatly placed in the waiting area.

Wang Yiyuan explained a few words to his business assistant Xiao Lin and Xiao Yunhua, and also made a few jokes with Xiao Yunhua. Xiao Yunhua's hometown is Jianli County, Hubei, and Wang Yiyuan's hometown is Shuangfeng County, Hunan, one in Hubei and the other in Hunan. He is half a fellow villager, so the two of them are naturally closer.

At this time, Wang Liping from the proofing department took a few boxes of samples in her hand, stepped on her high heels with a "dongdongdongdongdongdong", and walked over with a grin and said to Wang Yiyuan with a smile, Brother Wang, you happen to be here, do you see if you are right?

Wang Liping is from Panjin, Liaoning. She is tall and pretty. She has a straightforward personality and is very popular in factories. She has the nickname "standard piece", which means factory flower.

The way he greets others in the south is different. Wang Liping from the Northeast, regardless of whether the other person is familiar with him or not, she will be a brother or sister. She is very intimate. Wang Yiyuan is not very used to it until now, and always feels strange. So he joked about Wang Liping and said, "You want to catch relatives so much, why don't you call him father?"

Several people around laughed, Wang Liping was a little annoyed, and she was about to pinch Wang Yiyuan's waist when she acted up. She pretended to open her big eyes and said to Wang Yiyuan, "I'm calling you like this, do you dare to respond? Brother Wang. You don't want to make a proof."

No, no, I will take you to the F1 Grand Prix in a few days. Wang Yiyuan surrendered and said quickly. He took the sample and it was the same, walked to the table, got under the fluorescent light and compared it carefully for a while, turned around and said to Wang Liping that the blue color of the proof is lighter, and it needs to be adjusted again, a little deeper, it is the kind that is close to the dark blue, which looks good.

Wang Yiyuan works as a business manager in a printing factory invested by Taiwanese. The factory is located on Laoqinghu Road and is not far from Shanghai Oriental International Trade Wholesale Market. It is an industrial community developed and constructed in a local village. The factory occupies two single-story professional factory buildings in this industrial community, with a little more than 3,000 square meters.

The company's name is very grand, and it is called Shanghai Taihu International Printing Co., Ltd. The company's business is mainly to cooperate with Taiwanese-funded enterprises in Shanghai and nearby Jiangsu and Zhejiang, specializing in the printing of packaging bags and paper products. There are more than 150 employees.

The boss is from Taichung, Taiwan, and is named Xiao Jingdong. He prefers others to call him Adong. He is very easy-going, but he is very smart in his forties. Boss Xiao is said to have come to mainland China with Taiwan's Dibia Electronics in the early 1990s.

The headquarters of Dibia Electronics Mainland is located in Shanghai. The Dibia brand mobile phones it produces were once very famous in China. Boss Xiao saw the opportunity, and later went out to open the printing factory alone, specializing in supplying Dibia Electronics' packaging boxes and product manuals, thus slowly getting started.

Now the Taiwan and Shanghai company has the latest Heidelberg Folio, one four-color printing machine, and a complete series of post-print packaging processing equipment, which is well-known in the printing industry in Shanghai.

In private, employees call Boss Xiao Bazi, mainly referring to his stinginess and sometimes unkind behavior. Bazi's "Ba" was originally an adjective, roughly the same as the meaning of a country bumpkin. In Shanghai dialect, in addition to the meaning of a country man, Bazi mainly refers to outsiders who do not understand the market conditions in Shanghai, are self-righteous and easily deceived, but it cannot be regarded as a swearing sentence.

Generally speaking, in order to reflect their qualities as metropolitans, locals in Shanghai always like to call foreigners who are disliked by Shanghai people or think they are inappropriate. Their verbal statement is to use a few bazis, do not pass through flowers, and do not know the east, west, south and north when they take a break.

In this Shanghai dialect, Bazi naturally refers to people in China except for the central urban area of ​​Shanghai. They not only include rural people in Shanghai, but also people from other provinces, cities and districts in China, but also some foreigners. The further away from the central urban area of ​​Shanghai, it seems that the more powerful the "Ba" is, such as Jingbazi, Taibazi, Hong Kongbazi, Hanbazi, even Meibazi, Obazi, etc.

Xiao Jingdong, the boss Xiao, was even more unfortunate. Not only did it fully include the meaning of the bait, but there was another layer of mystery in the hearts of the employees. He was a bait, and he worked hard, had poor food, and couldn't sleep. He was always stingy. He was always stingy. This person was not too bullish. They often complained about the boss and the factory.

Speaking of being a business manager, Wang Yiyuan is actually just an ordinary salesperson, with a business department manager. There are six people doing business in the business department of the Taiwan-Shanghai company, Kobayashi, a business assistant who follows the order and coordinates, and a total of eight department managers.

The business department manager is also from Taiwanese, with his surname Ding and is the cousin of Boss Xiao. This man is in a foreign style all day long, and his hair is smooth and smooth. Even in hot days, he sometimes wears a suit and tie, especially a pair of leather shoes. He can't stand a trace of dust all day long.

In order to show his unique style, Manager Ding usually speaks for no more than three consecutive sentences, and one or two English words will definitely pop out of his mouth, which makes employees often understand and cannot bear it. Most employees privately denounce him as a slut.

Ding Jun has two special hobbies. One is that he likes to hold meetings the most. The business department has morning meetings every day. On Saturday morning, the company works normally and holds this week's business scheduling summary meeting in the afternoon. At the beginning of the meeting, he also likes to pay attention to a sense of ritual, requiring everyone to stand up, express their determination, sing, or applaud rhythmically, and cheer each other on high high.

The second is to fill in the form, and it is called form management. Business personnel must fill out the daily work management tracking form every day. They must not only fill in the specific contact person, contact number and method, project and location, and even the specific time must be divided into one hour according to the requirements. Everything they do every hour must be written clearly item by item.

At Saturday's dispatch meeting, each salesperson must submit the work summary of last week, fill in the work plan for next week, set specific goals and time to achieve, and finally sign and check each other one when the next meeting report is held.

At that time, there were also surrounding Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and many Taiwanese-funded enterprises gathered. Relatively speaking, because they were of the same origin and were far away from their hometown of Taiwan, Taiwanese-funded enterprises in the mainland were more willing to deal with Taiwanese-funded enterprises.

With this natural advantage, the business development of Taiwan and Shanghai companies has been smooth and has achieved great development in a short time. Currently, there are many major customers such as ASUS Computers, Renbao Computers, etc.

In the overall business share of Taiwan and Shanghai companies, the boss Mr. Xiao and Manager Ding account for more than half. In addition to constantly developing new customers, several salesmen such as Wang Yiyuan are also responsible for the communication and coordination, payment collection, visits, customer support and maintenance of existing customers in different areas allocated by the company.

Speaking of which, the reason why Wang Yiyuan joined the Taiwan-Shanghai company was quite tortuous and interesting. Wang Yiyuan used to work in Ningbo. When he first came to Shanghai to look for a job in March this year, he was completely disgusted. Apart from the limited experiences he had come to Shanghai for business trips before, he had a rough, simple and superficial impression of Shanghai, he basically had no one he knew.

Although Wang Yiyuan has had several years of work experience and even achieved some results, he has to start over when he comes to Shanghai when he continues to find a job. What he once did in Ningbo was production management, a large-scale clothing auxiliary material production enterprise.

But this time he went to Shanghai, he wanted to make some changes. He made up his mind to learn to do business. On the one hand, because production management has been in a long time, he has become a certain degree of laziness and lacks passion. The main reason is that he feels that doing business is more challenging and may be more helpful to his future development. If he does it well, he may have a better future, which is more in line with his impulse and determination to come to Shanghai.

After thinking clearly about what to do, Wang Yiyuan's next job search goal will naturally be clear: a large industry-oriented company that he can do.

The process of finding a job was quite smooth. After many trips to and from the talent market, I compared the recruitment advertisements in various newspapers and magazines. After continuous contact, interviews, and screening, ten days after arriving in Shanghai, Wang Yiyuan finally chose Taiwan and Shanghai.
