Chapter 412 The sudden storm
The afternoon meeting at Hengcheng Chery was long and complicated. For those sales consultants or clerks at the lowest level, they did not see their boss for the whole afternoon.
It seems like everyone has disappeared.
However, they also understood that everyone was only meeting on the second floor.
Lu Heng comes to the company less and less time, but every time he comes, he must come with the purpose of dealing with things, so meetings are not so strange.
In order to prevent some of the meeting contents from being spread out, the entire third floor was vacated, leaving only the heads of various departments participating in the meeting.
Lu Heng presided over the meeting, and Bai Yijing, the newly hired secretary, was responsible for the minutes of the meeting. The attendees were Tian Xiaobing from the Finance Department, Wang Guoqiang from the Channel Department, Mo Xinwei from the Marketing Department, Yuan Hua from the Human Resources Department, Li Zhenmin from the Sales Department, and General Manager Zhao Gen
If you look at it from a professional perspective, this meeting actually lacks a person in charge of after-sales service, but for Hengcheng Chery now, it is really difficult to establish a after-sales department. The arrangement of workshops is a big difficulty, and there are not enough maintenance workshops.
, even if the after-sales service is established, it is only superficial and superficial.
Under the chairmanship of Lu Heng, the meeting went on in an orderly manner, with each department clearly explaining the recent situation and next actions one by one.
Just as marketing manager Mo Xinwei sat down, the new sales manager Li Zhenmin spoke.
After adjusting his collar and looking at Lu Heng who was staring at him indifferently in front of him, Li Zhenmin felt a little nervous, but he still had to say what needed to be said.
"Mr. Lu, the sales report for July has been sorted out. The sales of 60 units in the exhibition hall, decoration, insurance, and household registration are about 60%. Compared with June, sales have dropped nearly three times.
, the completion rate of the three major categories of business also dropped by 17% during the same period.”
After talking about it, Li Zhenmin's voice gradually became quieter. This man who was less than thirty years old felt a rare redness on his face.
I originally thought that since I was working in this suburban area, the sales of domestically produced cars were quite good. Sixty units a month was quite good.
But comparing the sales report for July with that for June, the gap is simply heaven and earth. Anyone would feel embarrassed.
If I were to be thin-skinned, I would resign and leave as soon as July ends.
When Li Zhenmin was talking, his eyes looked at Lu Heng who was brooding from time to time, and he felt very uneasy. His performance in the first month was really dismal, and he didn't know what this young boss would do to him.
"In July, a salesperson in the sales department was promoted to a regular salesperson, and another intern sales consultant was dismissed. Now the total number of consultants in the sales department is seven. Including me and a salesperson, there are nine people in total. My plan is to continue
Recruit a few intern sales consultants, train them and see how they work before being absorbed into the team."
After finishing speaking, Li Zhenmin stood there, waiting for Lu Heng to speak.
Lu Heng raised his eyebrows and did not reply immediately. Instead, he asked Tian Xiaobing from the finance department next to him: "Manager Tian, how much was the net profit contributed by the company's sales department in July."
Perhaps because he already knew that Lu Heng would ask this question at the meeting, Tian Xiaobing had already prepared the draft. He answered without thinking: "The sales department's overall turnover in July was 820,000. After deducting various costs, the net profit was in June."
On the amount of 100,000."
Six hundred thousand
Perhaps in the past, it would have seemed like a job, but in June, after deducting all costs and paying state taxes, Lu Heng still made a profit of over two million yuan.
The gap between this is heaven and earth. It's no wonder that Li Zhenmin felt uneasy and feared that Lu Heng would punish him.
Hearing Tian Xiaobing talk about the profits, Li Zhenmin was shocked. He had asked about the profits in June. He had regressed too much.
I don’t know how Lu Heng will punish him next, whether he will be deducted from his salary or fired directly.
However, Lu Heng's words surprised him, and he even couldn't react.
"Six hundred thousand, that's okay. After all, it's the off-season in July, so the sales volume will be enough. But it's still far behind compared to before. Manager Li, you need to think of more ways to increase sales. There are also off-seasons.
It's an activity, isn't it?" Lu Heng looked at him with encouraging eyes.
Li Zhenmin nodded in a daze and said: "Yes. Yes, I have thought about this issue before."
Lu Heng smiled and said: "Then do you have any ideas in your mind?"
Li Zhenmin replied: "There are two, but the overall concept is not complete yet, and we are working on a planning plan. When it is ready, we will hand it over to colleagues in the marketing department for review to see if it is feasible."
"That's okay. Once it's done, give it to me to take a look at. Manager Li, you are new here and are not very familiar with the company before, so your performance is not very good. I can understand that. Just work hard next. I
But I look forward to you giving me a satisfactory answer," Lu Heng said encouragingly.
Li Zhenmin said quickly: "Mr. Lu, please rest assured that I will definitely be able to achieve the goal with my team in August."
Lu Heng chuckled, motioned for him to sit down, and then asked Wang Guoqiang from the channel department to continue speaking.
"Manager Wang, more than a month has passed. Please tell me how the channel department is doing."
"Currently, among the twelve districts and counties, only Yuanchuan District has been fully penetrated since taking over in May. According to Mr. Lu, a total of three secondary agents have been set up in Yuanchuan, completely introducing the Chery Automobile brand.
"As for whether to add a second level in the future, it depends on my tracking situation." Wang Guoqiang stood up and said.
Lu Heng frowned and knocked on the table.
"What about other areas, Tongchuan District, Changsheng, how are the talks with the secondary agents in these places?"
Wang Guoqiang looked a little sad and said: "I'm sorry, Mr. Lu, Tongchuan is under negotiation, and the same is true for Changsheng. However, agents from other regions have paid some deposits. A total of seven secondary agents have been negotiated.
Contributed to sales of 20 units in July."
Lu Heng's face instantly darkened, and he said with a slightly cold face: "It's been three months. What happened in May can be crossed out, and there are still two months left. For two months, the channel department only gave
Is this my result? There are seven agents, and Yuanchuan accounts for three. That means that in the other eleven second-level regions, only four second-level agents have been negotiated. Wang Guoqiang, I need an explanation."
The sudden violent storm instantly chilled the atmosphere, and everyone fell silent.
Perhaps seeing Lu Heng, who is harmless to both humans and animals, with a smile on his face, has made many people think that this boss is gentle, and the awe in their hearts has been reduced unconsciously.
However, to this day, Li Zhenmin's performance was not good, and Lu Heng treated him with a smile, and everyone felt that this was still the case. However, the sudden outburst on Wang Guoqiang's side caught everyone off guard.
Zhao Gen shook his head and smiled. The people in the company were becoming more and more mixed, and he was becoming less and less understanding of his boss's temper.
He knew that Lu Heng's behavior when facing those customers and business opponents, gentleness did not mean weakness, it was just Lu Heng's appearance of paralyzing others. If he really judged based on this impression first, he would definitely suffer a big loss.
And it seems that there are more than one or two people who have suffered this kind of loss.
Wang Guoqiang's face turned red and green. Being scolded by Lu Heng in front of so many people made him feel a little uncomfortable.
To be continued.
