Bringing space back to the 1970s to develop rural areas

After arguing for a while at Yang Qingdai's booth, James finally said he wanted to go back and discuss it.

"Comrade Xiao Yang, you are amazing."

Xie Yao looked at Yang Qingdai with admiration, her eyes sparkling.

Chen Yu nodded desperately, "Yes, yes, when can we speak English as well as you?"

They were classmates and were admitted to the textile factory at the same time. They also took the college entrance examination last year, but unfortunately failed. Director Xie was kind and kept encouraging them to continue taking the exam this year.

Unfortunately, they both have no ideas now.

When I found this opportunity to train myself, why would I still go to college?

After graduation, you will still be assigned a job and work. If you study foreign languages ​​well now, you will definitely not lose to those college students in the future.

"Do you have a tape recorder at home?" Yang Qingdai really wanted to help them improve their foreign language skills. "I'll find you some commonly used foreign language tapes and textbooks, and you can practice with them."

Although she didn't know whether she could find it, it was always a good idea to draw a pancake first.

"Thank you, Comrade Xiao Yang."

Director Xie was also very pleased. "How about this, Comrade Xiao Yang, you send the tapes and textbooks to the factory, and I will give them the tape recorder."

Yang Qingdai had no objection. She sent it to the factory after finding it and asked the factory director to pass it on.

On the first day of the exhibition, only Xie Yao and Chen Yu signed orders worth more than 10,000 yuan by gestures.

Director Xie tried hard to hide his sadness, put on a forced smile and took them out to a restaurant. He continued to encourage Yang Qingdai until he sent her back to the hotel.

Yang Qingdai just smiled and said nothing.

It’s clear at first glance that Director Xie has no experience in participating in exhibitions. It’s impossible to get a big order on the first day of an exhibition, unless it’s a big brand with a great reputation and fame.

Xie Yao and Chen Yu were able to sign a deal worth more than 10,000 yuan today, which was already a "good achievement". They were two rookies who negotiated the deal, so in her opinion, it was already a victory in the first battle.

In the next three or two days, many people asked for prices, and the total amount of people who placed orders was no more than 90,000.

Xie Yao and Chen Yu were very excited to see that they had negotiated the deal. The factory manager said that they would get the same commission for all the orders they negotiated.

As the exhibition was about to end, Director Xie was so worried that he almost pulled out all his hair.

This is far from the amount he signed for in a "life and death warrant", so he probably has to replace his position as factory director.

He regrets it!

How could he have been so arrogant and boastful at that time? How could he have signed such a big order at a trade fair?

It was all his fault that he drank too much courageous wine before going out, and he got himself into trouble because of his impulsiveness.

"Ms. Yang, long time no see. This is my wife, Maria, and this is Steven." Mr. James introduced the people who came with him. "They are all very interested in your designs and would like to discuss the prices with you in detail."

"Hello, please take a seat." He even brought people to bargain for the price.

Yang Qingdai was a little uninterested. The Eagle Sauce family was so stingy that they were not as willing to spend money as the company in Hong Kong.

"Hello, lovely girl, you are younger and more beautiful than I thought." Maria spoke Chinese, which was not very standard, but she used standard courtesy from the beginning.

Director Xie and his colleagues were stunned. They really didn't expect that foreigners could speak Long Mandarin.

"Thank you for the compliment."

"We would like to sign a long-term cooperation contract with your factory." Maria was more straightforward than James, "but we hope you can lower the price."

Yang Qingdai asked: "How can we have long-term cooperation?"

Maria spoke Chinese, which was not very standard, and mixed in a lot of English words and sentences, and explained the cooperation model in detail.

Especially when he heard that she was willing to sign a 300,000 yuan order first, Director Xie became so excited that he wished he could sign the order immediately on behalf of Yang Qingdai.

But Yang Qingdai shook her head and rejected her request that Hong Kong must purchase goods from her in the future.

"Although your conditions are very tempting, our products cannot be monopolized by any one company." Yang Qingdai was very firm in her attitude and used pure American English pronunciation so that the three people present could understand.

"Before you three came to discuss this, we had already signed a lot of contracts. We can't break the contract and ruin our reputation just because of a word from you.

Furthermore, we opened up the Hong Kong market ourselves, and we never had to worry about sales for our new products in the past. We can’t just give it to you for nothing just because of the 300,000 yuan order you mentioned.”

Even if they didn't have this order worth 300,000, Yang Qingdai would have been rich enough just relying on the cash flow from Hong Kong. If she didn't spend money recklessly and saved money, she could go to Fangcun or a small fishing village to enclose some land next year and collect rent for several lifetimes.

Take some practical actions and directly verbally ask for the Hong Kong market which has already gained popularity. What are you thinking?

The factory's products are all under their control and monopolized. Didn't we have to let them do whatever they wanted and lower the price at will, without caring about the factory's life or death?

This is something Yang Qingdai would never agree to.

After all, their ancestors often did such things as breaking promises and disrespecting people.

"Comrade Xiao Yang..."

Director Xie didn't understand why Yang Qingdai suddenly started speaking English.

He totally doesn't understand this.

When I heard the word "monopoly" from Yang Qingdai's mouth, I knew my hopes were dashed.

Maria had done some research when she was in Hong Kong and knew that whenever they launched new products every quarter, there would always be people lining up to buy them without any promotion.

This is also the reason why she wants the market in Hong Kong.

When Maria saw that the person who came out to talk to her was Yang Qingdai, the youngest among them and a designer, she thought it would be easy to trick her into getting what they wanted.

They observed for several days and found that Xie Yao and Chen Yu were the ones who were entertaining and explaining. They would only let Yang Qingdai explain things that they were not very familiar with, and naturally assumed that she knew nothing.

I didn't expect him to be the toughest one.

"If you don't agree, we won't place the order." Steven said in a condescending tone.

They looked arrogant and conceited, as if they had condescended to come to their booth, and no matter what excessive and willful demands these "noble" white people made, they, the country bumpkins from China, had no choice but to accept them.

"If you don't want to go down, then don't go down." Yang Qingdai was also tough, "I don't expect you to make a living. Not only do you want to monopolize, but you also want to overthrow us for food. Is this how your Statue of Liberty teaches you to behave?

Do you want to go back and memorize your Sherman Act and threaten me again?"

How dare you threaten her?

She spoke as if she would have no food to eat if they didn't place an order.

All of them were packed up and taken to Hong Kong, and they still sold briskly.

Her aunt Qu has already negotiated with department stores in Beijing and Shanghai. She will modify the styles and put the products on the shelves for sale directly after production, with their own domestic brand name on them.
