Salted Fish Doesn’t Want to Inherit Hundred of Billion Property - Chapter 6

6. Salted Fish Doesn’t Want to Inherit Hundred of Billion Property

In order to appease Le Taotao’s injured little heart, all of them gathered together and moved back a box of “Qiqi”.

There is no doubt that this soda stole the show and became their new favorite.

After eating and drinking, Le Taotao turned on her computer and used Baidu to start collecting relevant information about Qiqi.

The first link that pops up was the official website of “Qiqi”.

Le Taotao naturally clicked in. She thought she would see a lifeless and uninspired introduction. However, she heard brisk music whilst in the red background, she saw a bottle of soda jumped out, and brown-colored soda and white foam spurted out from the opened bottle cap, almost overflowing the screen.

When the bubbles dissipated, the music became elegant and soothing, and the word “Qibao” appeared in the form of a huge seal. The seal moved to the upper right, and several sections emerged.

Investment calls, online shopping channels, corporate history, advertisements from the past, etc., and even provide membership option

Qiqi’s entire website was elegantly arranged, with details representing traditional culture. Those who are knowledgeable can evaluate at a glance that they spend quite an effort to hire a professional artist. Even for people who are not knowledgeable, such as Le Taotao, this web was brightening and pleasing to the eye.

What she was most interested in was naturally the sales channels. Just as she was about to click in, she saw a white pigeon flying down from the upper right corner of the screen. With the sound of wind chimes vibrating, a long letter was slowly opened in front of her.     

A letter with extremely sincere words. It begins by describing the bumpy road that “Qiqi” has gone through after a hundred years of ups and downs, as well as its glorious era, and finally it understates the current predicament.     

Three production lines with only 30 workers, dwindling sales, and rising raw material prices.    

If it is a complaint, it will lead to people’s boredom, but a sincere and calm narrative has more power to shake people’s hearts.

At the end of the letter, “Qibao” didn’t have any complaints, just apologized calmly, and said goodbye to consumers for accompanying them all the way. “Qibao” will soon stop production, thus disappearing in a long stream of history.

Unconsciously, Taotao’s vision was a little blurry. She patted her cheek to calm down and told herself that this is all a sales strategy la, first, let’s go and see how online shopping works.

In 2009, Taobao already had hundreds of millions of members, and online shopping, as an emerging sales method, gradually spread among young consumer groups.

Le Taotao accepted this well, and when she clicked in, she saw Qiqi’s most classic glass of bottled soda and a boxed soda.

‘I don’t know who designed the boxed soda. Those bright colors and oversized fonts are eye-catching.’

Le Taotao silently avoided the boxed soda and checked the glass bottled ones. Sure enough, the glass-bottled ones have a higher appearance value. If you want to make videos, you should use this one. By the way, you can type out the official website’s link so that the distant audience can also give it a taste.

In addition, Le Taotao also found the logo and link of Taobao stores below, you can also buy it on Taobao stores.

When the box of soda arrives, Le Taotao thought she must make this nostalgic video well, drag Banfen and create a wave, maybe she can save “Qiqi”.

As someone who doesn’t like drinking tea, such a delicious soda is really a treasure in the world!

It has been half a month since Qing Qin took over the “Qibao”, he spent money like water with only a little income.

The employees who were originally full of energy were a little depressed at this time. Only Qing Qin had a stable mentality, and still has time to play with a cat.

This little tabby cat sneaked into the canteen one night, attempted to steal a meal and was caught tragically.

When Qing Qin saw this pitiful kitten being held on the back of its neck the next morning, he immediately changed the little one’s place of serving its sentence to his office.

At this moment, he was sat on the windowsill with just the tip of his foot on the ground, holding a cat-teasing stick, watching the little tabby cat chasing and pounced over and over.

The office door was knocked on.

Vice president Li rushed in with a grim expression: “President Qing!”

Qing Qin retracted his hand while seeing his expression. He knew very well that this diligent person who devoted most of his life to Qibao was the biggest stumbling block on his road to bankruptcy. He must be unable to bear the sluggish sales these days and began to complain to him.

As a good boss of the year, even though he thinks about how to bankrupt the company every day, Qing Qin still intends to perform some obligations, such as comforting the suddenly frustrated employees. To prevent them from jumping off a building or coming up with some wonderful ways to bring their company back to life.

“Mr. Li, don’t worry, I know the situation.” Qing Qin cleared his throat.

“That’s great, as expected, everything is under Mr. Qing’s control!” Mr. Li was overjoyed, his whole face distorted with excitement, “Time, this is the timing. Our online shopping channels are selling well, and sales from Taobao stores are almost reaching 10,000!”

“Don’t be sad,” Qing Qin jumped down from the windowsill, trying to comfort people, but when he heard the second half, his body titled —

Bang!

Qing Qin even brought the cat to the ground.

“Mr. Qing!” Mr. Li was startled and hurriedly helped him up.

 As a result, Mr. Qing grabbed his arm tightly: “You repeat it again!”

“Boss Qing is really clever. You knew we would get promotions online and arranged online shopping channels.” Mr. Li said in a daze.

“No, the last sentence.”

“Our online sales have exceeded 10,000.”

“Fuck.” For the first time, Qing Qin couldn’t help but swear.

Mr. Li: “It’s true, our company is saved!”

He looked at the tender young man in front of him in almost full of relief, and his eyes were nearly filled with tears.

Sure enough, even a young and promising business wizard like President Qing would feel uneasy. Even if he has calculated all the subsequent developments, he would feel a little nervous in his heart. He was just pretending to be casual and lazy in order to stabilize his heart.

Until it was proved that his decision was correct, Mr. Qing was able to release his inner excitement.

    Qing Qin was horrified by his gaze, circled the room like a trapped beast, and finally sorted out the thunderbolt he had obtained earlier: “Why do we get an online promotion?”

“There is a video producer called ‘Gluttonous Taotao’ uploaded an evaluation of our soda on a video website, compared our soda with the Banfen fruity series, and highly recommended the ‘Qiqi’ series, followed by hanging our official website sales channels and Taobao store address.” Mr. Li investigated the cause and effect before coming over.     

(桃桃: her name; peach and 饕饕:gluttonous. all of them are called tao but with different pronunciations)

Seeing that Qing Qin’s expression seemed to sink, he comforted: “Mr. Qing, it doesn’t matter if it hasn’t met your expectations yet, after all, it’s just the beginning. Soon our sales will continue to rise, and then we will worry about not having enough liquidity to expand production.”     

Sales will continue to rise? What a devilish whisper.     

Qing Qin’s smile froze. Seeing that Meng Yao was also coming in with a stack of financial statements to report the matter, he still remembered the task she was carrying: “It’s okay, Meng Yao, you don’t have to report anymore, I know our strategy has succeeded. Give me some time and let me take a look again.”     

“Okay, please also look at the recent financial statements.” Meng Yao nodded and put a stack of statements on Qing Qin’s desk.     

Qing Qin finally turned on the computer and took a closer look at his official website for the first time. Before, he just casually made some comments on the manuscript according to his accustomed aesthetics.     

“It’s expensive at first glance”, “It has a long history at first glance”, “It has to be traditional and modern, dignified and youthful”, this kind of generalization requirements contradicts each other enough to kill every artist

However, there are brave people under the heavy reward. In many cases, it is not that they have much demand, but that the money is not given in place. The well-known artists in art industry they invited actually have this kind of temperament, so the entire website exudes a noble aura of a super large enterprise.

Qingqin: I was wrong, as long as I take one more look.

 He clicked in and directly entered the message wall below the online shopping channel.

A lot of praise is on the message wall.

“Came here from Taotao’s video.”

“+1.”

“I liked their soda when I was a kid, but I didn’t expect to drink it online now.”

“I saw Taotao’s video before and I was thinking about how it looked so familiar. I knew it tasted right when I took a sip.”

“Soda and barbecue are a perfectly natural pair!”

“The sales channel on the official website is quite good, the delivery is fast, and there is no breakage inside.”

“The official website said they are going bankrupt, is it true?”

“Who knows? Maybe it’s their marketing strategy, but I’d better order a few more. It would be a pity if I can’t drink this soda in the future.”

“Yes. Yes, in comparison, the Banfen fruity flavors on the market are simply a piece of garbage.”

Qing Qin read the message indifferently whilst foolishly wanting to ask his subordinates to shut down the online shopping channel, but after thinking about it, he doesn’t have a good reason, so he had to give up bitterly.

In the end, I have to blame the UP-Lord named Taotao, I don’t know what kind of hatred you have, for you to retaliate against me in this way!

While thinking about it, Qing Qin entered the O station website. Thinking about how to stuff money in to make the UP-Lord shut up, then he saw a bunch of “Qiqi” soda evaluation series pushed out.

In addition to the most original Taotao’s Qiqi and Banfen comparison, there are other strange comparisons such as Qiqi and ready-to-drink tea, Qiqi and Bingrun, Qiqi and Guochun, and not surprisingly, Qiqi win, at least a draw.

The question is, is this thing really that good?

Qing Qin silently recalled the magical liquid he drank that day, walked to the beverage machine outside the office with low air pressure, and picked up a glass of soda for himself.

This is also a great benefit for employees, but Qing Qin has never tried it himself.

The dark-brown liquid was bubbling inside the paper cup, and a few drops of soda fell on his hands, bringing a slight cooling sensation.

Qing Qin tilted his head and drank the soda in one go, smacked his mouth, took another cup for himself, and returned to his seat.

He thought extremely desolately: If I had drank that glass of soda when I was inspecting the factory, would things have been different?

“Mr. Qing, Manager Sun said that our soda sales in Jingli have increased significantly. If this situation continues, they will increase the purchase volume next time!” Vice President Li broke in and attacked his boss again.

Qing Qin drank tons of sad soda blankly. It was delicious: “I see.”

“Besides…” Mr. Li remembered that Qiqi had brought up another trend. Seeing his boss has fallen into deep thought, he silently shuts up and leaves.
