Chapter 57: Turning stones into gold
"Damn it, are you ever going to finish!" Especially Qu Hongqi let out an angry roar. He was really anxious.
Zhou Andong shuddered, his body suddenly stiffened, his mouth crooked and his eyes slanted, and saliva flowed down the corner of his mouth.
"Damn!" Especially Qu Hongqi was paralyzed, his face turned white in a flash, "Zhou Andong, you... what's wrong with you, ah?"
Looking at Zhou Andong's appearance, he couldn't even breathe. Especially Qu Hongqi didn't dare to touch him randomly, fearing that if he touched him, Zhou Andong would die, and he wouldn't be able to explain it even with a mouth full of mouths.
Zhou Andong was happy in his heart. Damn, let you roar at me. I'll scare you to death, or scare you into impotence, let your wife wear a green hat for you.
At this time, the door suddenly opened. Gu Bing walked in first. Seeing Zhou Andong still twitching, his expression changed, and he rushed over in two steps.
"What's wrong with you?" After saying this, Gu Bing looked at Especially Qu Hongqi and asked angrily, "What did you do to him?"
"What happened?" Zuo Peiming entered. Seeing the situation in the room, his expression also changed, "What's wrong with him?"
Jian Qiu flew to Zhou Andong's side and pinched Zhou Andong's philtrum hard with her thumb.
Damn, Zhou Andong cursed in his heart. You woman, why are you pinching so hard? I was almost pinched to death by you.
But suddenly so many people came, and the acting had to be finished. Enduring the pain, he let out a long breath, his tense body slowly softened, and his breathing became more and more normal.
"Are you alright?" Jian Qiu's expression looked very nervous, one hand constantly rubbing Zhou Andong's chest, "Are you feeling better?"
No one noticed, including Zhou Andong himself, that the tone of Jian Qiu's voice was filled with unusual concern.
After panting a few times, Zhou Andong leaned against the chair and said weakly, "I'm fine. I have epilepsy, but I haven't had an attack for many years. Just now, Chang Kezhang Qu..."
Having said this, this guy shook his head with a face full of grievance, "Forget it, I won't say it."
Especially Qu Hongqi looked at the expressionless Zuo Peiming and was almost crying. He cursed Zhou Andong in his heart. Damn, you're really not a thing. Can you finish your sentence? What did I do to you?
"You must be Comrade Zhou Andong, right? Is your body alright? Do you need to go to the hospital?"
Zuo Peiming asked Zhou Andong with concern, and then looked coldly at Especially Qu Hongqi. This look made Especially Qu Hongqi's legs go soft, and he almost knelt down.
Gu Bing hurriedly introduced Zhou Andong, "This is Deputy Office Director Zuo, who wants to understand the product positioning and follow-up marketing of Jiangzhou Yugong Liquor."
Zhou Andong finally understood. It turned out that this big boss wanted to see him. No wonder Especially Qu Hongqi wanted to let him go. Seeing that he wouldn't leave, he was so anxious that he almost bit someone.
Jian Qiu said coldly to the security guard holding the key, "What are you still standing there for? Hurry up and open his handcuffs."
This time Zhou Andong honestly let the security guard open his handcuffs. Jian Qiu asked with concern, "Are you really alright? Don't you need to go to the hospital?"
"No need!" Zhou Andong was about to get up, but Jian Qiu hurriedly supported his arm.
"You don't need to get up!" Zuo Peiming pressed Zhou Andong into the chair, "Your body is not well, you'd better sit."
"Leader, there is a stool here, you sit." Zhang Zui took a stool from behind the door and placed it behind Zuo Peiming diligently.
Zuo Peiming sat down and said with a smile, "Yesterday afternoon, I learned about the winery's reform and specifically found someone to ask about you, Zhou Andong. It's incredible. They all said you are a magical magician who can turn stones into gold and sell ordinary sorghum for the price of gold."
Zhou Andong said modestly, "Leader, you are overpraising me."
"No!" Zuo Peiming said, "The achievements are here, no one can deny them. Now tell me, why can't the eighty tons of liquor in the warehouse be sold? If sold, it would affect product positioning and follow-up marketing."
Everyone pricked up their ears, including Gao Qingkui and Zhang Zui, who all wanted to know what medicine Zhou Andong was selling in his gourd.
Zhou Andong organized his language and said, "Jiangzhou Jiangzhou Yugong Liquor is a new product we launched. It has no market competitiveness, consumer maturity is not high, and it is not like Moutai Liquid, which has a deep foundation. The current popularity, to put it bluntly, is an illusion brought about by previous marketing."
"If there is no follow-up marketing to keep up, this popular phenomenon will never last long, and in the end, it will definitely be like sorghum, and not a single bottle will be sold. So, I made a marketing plan for this situation, which I call hunger marketing."
"The so-called hunger marketing is to influence the terminal selling price by adjusting the quantity of both supply and demand. Simply put, it is to limit the supply quantity and use the consumer's eagerness to buy and eagerness to be new and fast."
"In the early stage of product promotion, use the information asymmetry in the short term to artificially create a tense atmosphere of product supply, causing an illusion of short supply, and then increase the price to achieve rich profits."
"And the ultimate role of hunger marketing is not only to sell products at a high price but also to generate high added value for the brand, thereby establishing a high-value image for the brand."
"However, hunger marketing looks simple to operate, but it is a double-edged sword. If used well, it can make the product brand generate greater added value. If not used well, it will cause damage to its product brand, or even send customers to competitors."
Zuo Peiming pondered with his head down. Gao Qingkui and Zhang Zui were also pondering. Jian Qiu looked at Zhou Andong thoughtfully, her eyes shining with brilliance, not knowing whether she was pondering Zhou Andong's words or thinking about other things. But more people didn't understand and were dumbfounded.
"Good!" Zuo Peiming said "good," "What was your major in college?"
Zhou Andong scratched his head, "Agriculture!"
Zuo Peiming was stunned, and then laughed out loud, patting Zhou Andong on the shoulder affectionately, "Studying agriculture, but so knowledgeable about business, you are really a genius. Amazing, truly amazing. I think you are a bit overqualified in the winery. How about this, you first revive the winery for me and make the achievements, and when the time comes, I will move you to another place, a place where you can exert your true talent."
Zuo Peiming's words shocked everyone, even Zhou Andong was dumbfounded. He didn't think that a big leader like Zuo Peiming would fool him in front of so many people.
"Alright, that's it for today. Knowing your plan, I have a bottom line in my heart. Otherwise, thinking about the problem of these more than a thousand employees eating every day, my heart has been raised and I can't put it down."
Zhou Andong looked at Zuo Peiming who was walking out with a bitter face. Leader, I don't want to work for you, I want to do business myself, become a big boss, become the richest man, and live a life of luxury. But in front of so many people, he didn't dare to reject this big boss's face, so he could only talk about it later.
"Hey!" Just as Zhou Andong was feeling unhappy, he suddenly saw Liu Zhiguang shrinking in the crowd and laughed.
"Deputy Chang Kezhang Liu, so you are here too. I was just looking for you."
His shout not only startled Liu Zhiguang, but others were also startled. Zuo Peiming also stopped and looked back. ===== CHAPTER 58 =====
