Chapter 95 Sister Wei's Party
Chapter 95 Sister Wei's Party
It takes time for headhunters to recruit people.
After being promised a commission for promoting the album.
Manager Shi Zhongzhi sent three salesmen out to distribute albums, and assigned each of them the task of finding a place with a lot of traffic today and distributing 30 albums in the afternoon.
Since the products were given away for free instead of being sold to customers, the salesmen had no pressure at all.
As temporary contract workers, they finally got the opportunity to earn extra money, so they were quite serious about their work.
After discussing with each other, they took action. Some went to the station, some went to shopping malls or hotels, and gave away sample albums for free, hoping to get a chance to play them in public.
Even if you give away 1000 tickets, the total cost is only about 2000 yuan. You only need to attract a few hundred customers to make back the money.
Of course there are many people who want something that is given away for free.
With a try-it attitude, some stores listened to the album "That Girl" and were surprised to find that the songs in it were of quite good quality.
On the other hand, Manager Shi Zhongzhi himself is a bit more cunning.
He started going to audio-visual stores, talking to the owners, and looking for strong distributors step by step.
Besides.
Because I had experience in running a small record company, my previous connections came in handy and I was able to get in touch with some businessmen who were doing pretty good business.
Like Fan Wumian, manager Shi Zhongzhi was also worried about counterfeiting, so he spread the word that the company had stockpiled 30 genuine albums, and in order to promote new artists and open up the market, they were selling them wholesale at a price of 5 yuan per album.
I played a few songs on my mobile phone and showed them to the distributors. I didn't even meet them in person, but I sold 2700 copies wholesale in just one afternoon.
According to the commission calculation, you can earn 810 yuan after actually receiving the payment for the goods.
It is equivalent to a quarter of his monthly salary.
This crazy speed of making money made Manager Shi Zhongzhi excited. He remembered that Fan Wumian had mentioned the small commodity wholesale market, and he couldn't wait to take a ride there and try it out himself.
It turns out.
It is useless to just make promises. The only thing that can truly motivate employees is money.
A little after 5 o'clock in the evening.
Fan Wumian was already on the bus heading from the customs port to the port city area.
He hadn't intended to come back so early.
However, Zuo Ziyan called and said that her cousin was hosting a yacht party tonight and specifically invited him to attend.
Fan Wumian wanted to see the world and experience the extravagant life of the rich ladies in Hong Kong, so he cancelled his reservation at the hotel.
He didn't go home, but went directly to the shopping mall where Zuo Ziyan's family lived.
I was taken by this landlady's girlfriend to buy a new set of clothes, from shirts to shoes and socks, with a total value of over 7,000 yuan, saying that they were to match her evening dress.
Without waiting for Fan Wumian to take out the money, Zuo Xiaohua swiped her shopping card first.
She also told me that the company would top up 10 yuan into her card every year, but she didn't need to buy anything on a regular basis, so she couldn't use it.
While getting on the bus and heading to the yacht marina.
Zuo Ziyan, who had already changed into a black Dior dress, said to Fan Wumian:
"Don't think too much. You were dressed very nicely before, but my cousin invited you specially. There are other guests tonight, so if you dress smartly, it will be easier to leave a good impression. You are a celebrity now, so you can't be so casual like before."
Fan Wumian calmly waved his hand and said with a smile:
"Social etiquette, I understand."
"I didn't think too much about it. I just thought that free rice is really delicious. People who are not strong enough will only cause troubles. I am not that sensitive and fragile. I will get rich sooner or later anyway. It's just that my foundation is a little weak now."
"If my dad's conditions are similar to yours, it would be interesting if I were given a few years."
If you have sufficient capital.
In this era, if we invest crazily in a group of companies, ten or twenty years later, we may have the opportunity to compete with the four major giants in Hong Kong and become equals.
It's a pity that silly old Fan is too unreasonable. Just like the squirrel in "Ice Age", he is madly protecting his house and only has his pension in his eyes.
otherwise.
Even if the father and son rent a house and use the money to buy Penguin Holdings shares, the family's total assets may increase 100 times, and their net worth will reach hundreds of millions.
As someone who has been through this, anyone with a little common sense can certainly think of this.
Done.
Seeing Zuo Ziyan turned her head and looked at him, Fan Wumian continued:
"Why, are you fascinated by my unruly and indomitable behavior?"
The corners of Zuo Xiaohua's mouth curled up as she explained:
"I was thinking, I was worried that you wouldn't be able to adapt to that kind of occasion, but since you're so thick-skinned, it should be no problem."
"Anyway, you didn't eat their rice. If anyone finds fault with you, remember to be patient for my cousin's sake."
"Many people speak without thinking, which is very annoying. There have been many times when I was so angry that I wanted to leave on the spot. But I tell you this just in case. We don't know who will be the guests tonight yet."
Fan Wumian understood what she meant and made an OK gesture.
Her cousin married well and was surrounded by high-end people. Many rich people have a floating mentality and lack of restraint in their daily lives, so they are inevitably arrogant and domineering.
For example, when she first went to her cousin's studio.
A bunch of gossipy women, checking various household registrations.
Although he didn't say anything unpleasant, he couldn't hide the indifference in his words and actions.
When she learned that his father was only working part-time in the crew, the rich lady asked directly, "You are kidding me, can you make Miss Zuo make such a fuss?"
To put it nicely, it means being outspoken and straightforward. To put it bluntly, it means being inconsiderate of other people's feelings and being a bad mouth.
Recently, the media has been paying crazy attention to everything related to Fan Wumian, and has already dug up all his past, including the fact that his family was sometimes too poor to pay the electricity bill.
Ordinary people might think that it is quite remarkable that a family can raise a talented kid like him.
But in the eyes of many second-generation rich people.
The so-called poor people are not in the same circle as me at all.
Seeing Zuo Ziyan being so considerate and thinking about me everywhere.
Fan Wumian felt a little embarrassed. After all, he still had another girl in his heart. He had just given his first kiss to someone else this morning.
I always felt that my secret relationship with Zuo Ziyan would end sooner or later.
But when he thought about what if this girl gave her all and tried to maintain this long-distance relationship after going abroad to study, Fan Wumian suddenly felt overwhelmed. It is not easy to maintain a balance when playing two games at the same time.
There is no need to worry about it for the time being.
When the car stopped at the entrance of the yacht club, Fan Wumian looked Zuo Ziyan up and praised her sincerely:
"This skirt suits you very well. You look youthful and pretty in your school uniform, and look like a grown-up lady in formal wear. It would be a pity if you don't participate in the fashion week as a model."
"Where did you learn such sweet words? It took me a long time to buy this skirt. By the way, is your Bandit King Company going well?"
Zuo Ziyan walked in side by side with him.
Anyway, gossip about the two of them is already flying everywhere, and various versions of "mother-in-law visiting son-in-law" have come out, so this little scandal doesn't matter.
Fan Wumian said:
"I'm getting a little bit of clues. I'm going to Shenzhen again today to recruit some employees and make preparations in advance."
Zuo Ziyan smiled and said:
"You started your own business before you even graduate. I wish you great fortune in advance. The singing industry is very unstable, so starting a company is a good idea. If you run into trouble in the future, you can ask me for help. Although I may not be able to handle it, my company has many veteran employees who have been doing business for decades."
"Of course, of course. So, which ship does Sister Wei own?"
"The biggest one is called the Starry Sky. My brother-in-law paid 6500 million Hong Kong dollars to buy this yacht when we got married. It is much more spacious than my father's yacht."
Zuo Ziyan finished the speech with great interest, but soon realized that something was wrong.
She was also afraid that she might have said something wrong and might upset her secret boyfriend, so she secretly turned her head to glance at him.
Fan Wumian didn't notice it at all and said:
"It's a really cool shape, and it's several sizes larger than the other yachts around. I've seen super-rich people abroad spend hundreds of millions of dollars on custom-made yachts. Why is no one in Hong Kong buying one? Do they not like it?"
"."
Zuo Ziyan put her hand over her chest, pretending to vomit blood, and said:
"If you spend hundreds of millions of dollars to buy a ship, the annual maintenance cost will probably be tens of millions of dollars. Do you think it's like buying fish balls at the night market? Although some wealthy people can easily afford it, maybe they are old and don't like to play with these things anymore."
Walking to the Starry Sky yacht, the two boarded the boat together.
Fan Wumian was a little surprised because he found many familiar faces among the guests.
Zuo Ziyan's cousin Wei Linyuan came over enthusiastically to say hello.
He said with a smile:
"Ayan, Wumian, you're finally here! Last night's campus concert was amazing. I originally thought it was just a school performance. If we had known, our band would have performed on stage together. If we're lucky, we might even get a few press releases."
Zuo Ziyan spoke first:
"Cousin, are you busy? I didn't expect so many people to come. I should have called you earlier."
Wei Linyuan had long been content to be a wealthy wife, and had never really thought about being in the limelight. She lowered her voice and reminded Fan Wumian:
"The daughter of the major shareholder of Hong Kong City's No. 1 Satellite TV is here tonight. You can say hello later and maybe you can show up on TV. Her TV station has hundreds of thousands of viewers in Southeast Asia, which will be very helpful for your debut and fame."
Looking in the direction pointed by cousin Zuo Ziyan, Fan Wumian let out a soft "Huh".
I still remember that her name was Ran Ruoyu. She seemed to be studying in a private school, Kowloon Guangming College. On the day of the Yau Tsim Mong Middle School Singing Competition, she was responsible for the reception work.
I thought she was just an ordinary little beauty, but I didn't expect she had a TV station at home.
Zuo Ziyan seems to be quite familiar with this Miss Ran.
After meeting, they hugged each other and praised each other for being dressed beautifully tonight.
Fortunately, I didn’t encounter any psychopaths.
Instead, many people came up to greet Fan Wumian and praised him for his singing and songwriting skills.
Among them are Xuan Xuan, the heroine of "A Step into the Past", as well as well-known actor Lai Yaoxiang and Shan Ji's wife Cai Erjie.
