Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 84: All Little Tricks
Jiang Beicheng went on a business trip to the coast at the end of the month and studied for two days at Taizhou Xinrongji and Shanghai Tai'anmen respectively.

Learn and exchange business philosophies with the management of the two companies.

After completing the study, I flew to Zhoushan and personally visited the ocean fishing company of our partner Qitai, and discussed related matters with the person in charge of the company.

He had planned the online marketing in the middle of the month, and he started working on it. He didn't pay much attention to it during the past few days when he was on a business trip, but just checked the results when he had some free time.

The power of the Internet cannot be ignored. Investing hundreds of thousands of dollars in marketing expenses can produce millions of dollars in marketing effects.

At the same time, Long Fei's small interest group in the Jiangnan City Catering Association became nervous, otherwise Chen Bin would not have politely invited him to dinner on the phone.

When we landed at Jiangnan International Airport in the afternoon, Chen Bin’s driver was waiting to pick us up in his Bentley Bentayga.

"Mr. Jiang, thank you for your hard work." The driver addressed him respectfully and opened the back door for Jiang Beicheng. "Mr. Jiang, be careful."

We got in the car and went to the main store of Brother Chen’s Hotpot.

"Hello, Mr. Jiang."

"Welcome, Mr. Jiang."

"Mr. Jiang, please come this way!"

As soon as I entered the room, I felt the enthusiasm of the main store staff.

Old guy Chen Bin must have given specific instructions.

"Mr. Chen, Mr. Jiang is here."

The foreman knocked on the door.

Chen Bin quickly stood up and came forward, smiling warmly and shaking hands, saying, "Mr. Jiang, welcome, welcome.

It’s been a tiring and hard journey.

Please take a seat and have some tea."

He is completely different from Chen Bin, who blocked Jiang Beicheng from joining the association's board of directors.

The old guy didn't feel embarrassed.

The main focus is on being able to bend and stretch.

Jiang Beicheng sat down and looked at the internet celebrity Dabo sitting in the corner.

Dabo lowered his head instantly, avoiding Jiang Beicheng's gaze.

A little timid.

Either he had discussed with Chen Bin how to deal with him, or he was confused by Chen Bin's two faces.

Chen Bin noticed Jiang Beicheng's gaze and said flatteringly with a smile, "Boss Jiang, Dabo and I are old acquaintances. He has done a lot of advertising for me. I think this young man is pretty good.

It’s just that sometimes we can’t control our greed and do stupid things.

I had already criticized him for raising the price of your advertisement before you came.

Dabo, give Mr. Jiang a toast and apologize to him."

Dabo raised his glass in response: "Boss Jiang, I'm sorry, this was not a fair thing for me to do."

Greed is normal.

Compared with Dabo's greed for money, Jiang Beicheng was even more upset by Chen Bin, a person who manipulated his greed to disgust him.

Jiang Beicheng smiled and said to Chen Bin: "Mr. Chen, you are right and you are also wrong.

You are a good person to the end."

Chen Bin knew Jiang Beicheng was calling him, so he smiled and said, "Boss Jiang, let me have a drink with you.

Don't take it to heart.

Besides, your tactics are too advanced, and they are not in the same league as ours. I still need to learn from you."

The flattery is very loud.

Jiang Beicheng raised his glass and said, "Mr. Chen is too modest. You are a veteran in the catering industry in Jiangnan City. How many years have you been dominating the catering industry?
I've just entered the industry, and maybe in half a year I'll be an outsider again." Chen Bin's expression changed slightly, and he nodded with an awkward smile, "No, no, Mr. Jiang will be the main force in our catering industry in the future."

When the board meeting ended that day, in order to express his loyalty, Chen Bin followed Long Fei and left first. When leaving, he said loudly: Beicheng Hotel will not survive more than half a year.

Now I came to humbly ask Jiang Beicheng for advice and learning, and I slapped myself twice.

But the old man was thick-skinned, and when Jiang Beicheng pointed him out, he just smiled and got away with it.
If it were someone as concerned about face as Long Fei, he would probably blush on the spot today.

After finishing his drink and sitting down, Dabo took the initiative to flatter him, "Boss Jiang, I hope you can give me a chance to make amends.

I'd like to give you a free promotional visit during the trial opening of the North City Hotel."

Internet celebrity food bloggers like them don’t all get paid to visit restaurants and advertise. Sometimes they also have to create their own content to attract traffic.

Beicheng Hotel is now the most popular restaurant in the area. Every time he visits the restaurant, he can also get a wave of traffic.

He said that he was making amends, but actually he had some ulterior motives.

But it is not important in Jiang Beicheng's eyes. Beicheng Hotel welcomes Internet celebrities to take advantage of the traffic and visit the restaurant.

Continue to maintain the heat and let the traffic snowball grow bigger.

The restaurant also has requirements. The number of fans must be at least 500,000. Those plums cannot be put in the rice, which will lower the grade.

Of course, restaurants don’t provide free meals. If you want to create content and get traffic, you have to spend money to order food. There is no strict standard for how much you spend, as long as you meet the minimum consumption.

"When you go there, do more research. Beicheng Hotel still has many welfare activities that have not been launched. You can contact Manager Xu first." Jiang Beicheng said.

Business travel transfers, Didi luxury car transfers, InterContinental Hotel negotiated prices, free parking... these activities can all be promoted through Dabao, a local food blogger with three million followers.

For their circle, these publicity gimmicks mean traffic, and bloggers who come to visit the store later will follow suit and promote it, forming a chain effect.

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." Dabo toasted Jiang Beicheng again.

Without signing a guild, and without capital or backing, he could only rely on his own emotional intelligence to survive in the Jiangnan City catering circle, and he had to bow his head when he should.

Originally, he was going to make 30,000 yuan from this order from Beicheng Hotel, but now he has made no profit at all. He has to apologize and please Jiang Beicheng, and even spend his own money to order food and explore the restaurant at Beicheng Hotel, and then edit a video that will satisfy Beicheng Hotel.

He now hates Chen Bin who is beside him and feels that he has fallen into Chen Bin's trap and suffered a lot.

However, seeing Chen Bin flattering Jiang Beicheng and being ridiculed by Jiang Beicheng, he felt a little comforted.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Dabao took the initiative to say goodbye.

Let Chen Bin face Jiangbei City alone.

"Mr. Jiang, now we are just two brothers..." Chen Bin said with a smile.

"Mr. Chen, we are not very familiar with each other." Jiang Beicheng raised his hand to interrupt, not understanding what he was saying.

"Hahaha, President Jiang is still angry with me."

"Mr. Chen, if I were angry with you, I wouldn't have waited until now to express it. As for the Dabo incident, I knew you were playing tricks behind the scenes. Did I look for you?" Jiang Beicheng said with a smile.

This smile is creepy.

Jiang Beicheng's tone was extremely insulting.

What Chen Bin understood was that Jiang Beicheng didn't take him seriously, or that his little tricks were not appreciated by Jiang Beicheng at all, so there was no need to spend time trying to deal with him.

But he still boasted about it in front of his peers as an achievement.

Chen Bin smiled awkwardly and nodded.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Beicheng raised his glass and said, "Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your hospitality today.

Mr. Chen, anyone who is used to being a younger brother will never be able to be a boss.

Before, you stood on Long Fei's side. We were opposites. There was nothing much to talk about between us. We just had to show our true abilities and fight.

I already know why you invited me to dinner today. I remembered a saying that is quite appropriate: people who are two-faced will not end well in the end. Please consider it carefully.
