For example, if a factory needs stainless steel screws, the factory owner sends employees to purchase them outside. The employees will look for a stainless steel screw factory based on their understanding of the business.

This has a very big disadvantage.

If an employee doesn't understand Gangcheng's business, where can he find a stainless steel screw factory?

Moreover, this point-to-point business communication method is not only inefficient but also price-opaque.

Only when two factories establish long-term cooperation can communication be smoother.

If there is a platform as a channel for business communication, it will be different.

If a factory needs stainless steel screws or a large number of plastic particles, after it is published in the newspaper, the corresponding manufacturers will contact the factory in need.

If this newspaper has enough influence, many manufacturers will publish their needs in the newspaper.

There will also be many manufacturers who can meet the needs and contact the factories that have raised the needs in the newspaper.

Several factories bid together, and the factory that makes the request will naturally get the most favorable price.

There are also some companies doing cross-border trade, and foreigners may need a batch of hangers.

They can also publish information about the need for hangers in newspapers and wait for hanger factories to contact them.

Commercial newspaper publishers can charge a certain fee to the demand side.

Moreover, newspaper publishers can learn about the prices of various products from various manufacturers and gain access to the largest commercial resources in the port city.

Thinking of this, Chen Jianye took out a small notebook and wrote down his thoughts.

There is definitely great potential in running a business newspaper.

"Tomorrow, the five major newspapers in Hong Kong will have information about our Ministry of Foreign Trade seeking investment. Hot-hot items are a very popular commodity in Hong Kong. I wonder how many people will bid for them."

"Hopefully it's not too busy."

Zhang Jungang said to Chen Jianye.

"Comrade Jun Gang, how many agents are we planning to select this time?"

Chen Jianye asked.

"I don't know. We'll submit a list of five candidates to the leadership. The exact number will depend on the outcome of the leadership meeting."

"I estimate there should be three. Including Tan Yonghuai, they correspond exactly to the four regions of Europe, America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East."

Zhang Jungang estimated.

As for Africa, it was not within Zhang Jungang's consideration.

Using a heater requires electricity, and many places in Africa don't have electricity.

"hope everything is fine."

Chen Jianye said calmly.

The two went back to the Ministry of Foreign Trade building to rest.

Cao Chai and Long Qiwen are already writing the document to call a meeting of merchants who have registered.

In the evening, Li Jiacheng and Lei Luo came to the Ministry of Foreign Trade building as usual.

Chen Jianye went downstairs and got in the car.

Lei Luo drove to Li Jiacheng's small workshop factory.

Three people entered the office.

Li Jiacheng makes tea.

"Tomorrow's newspaper will publish an announcement about the Ministry of Foreign Trade recruiting agents. You can prepare to sign up now."

"Let me tell you about the relevant requirements. We are participating in the bidding under the name of Mingyang Printing Factory. The bidding documents must reflect our characteristics, such as cultural heritage, patriotism, and speaking for the masses."

"We must fully consider the domestic environment and use comrade-like language in our speech, rather than adopting the Hong Kong-style approach."

Chen Jianye provided guidance.

He understands the domestic situation and is recruiting agents for Gangcheng. Merchants must be patriotic and preferably have some sense of family and country. Leaders like such businessmen.

Li Jiacheng took notes.

After the discussion, Lei Luo sent Chen Jianye back to the Ministry of Foreign Trade.

The next day.

Many people came to the entrance of the Foreign Trade Department, holding information bags in their hands and handing over information for participating in the bidding for the Hot Dealer agent to the front desk staff.

Li Jiacheng was among them.

Seeing more than ten bidding documents piled on the table, he became concerned and asked the staff, "Excuse me, are these all bids from the bidding hotline agents?"

The title of "comrade" was specifically communicated to the Li family by Chen Jianye.

Always call someone "comrade" when speaking. Don't use titles like "Manager" or "Mr. X" as they are full of capitalism.

"Yes, both."

"That's not all. The bids submitted this morning have already been brought upstairs."

The staff member glanced at Li Jiacheng and replied.

"Young man, how many copies did you receive today?"

A middle-aged man behind Li Jiacheng asked a question and took out a pack of cigarettes and handed it over.

"Don't try to play tricks on me. Who do you think I am?"

"You! Get out of here! I won't accept your tender!"

The staff member became furious, stood up, pointed at the middle-aged man and shouted angrily.

The middle-aged people were embarrassed and left with nods and bows.

Li Jiacheng's forehead was covered with sweat.

No wonder Mr. Chen told him not to give gifts to the staff of the External Affairs Office.

These people are really stubborn.

Li Jiacheng walked out of the Ministry of Foreign Trade building, wondering whether he should contact Chen Jianye and inform him that many people had signed up to bid.

On second thought, Chen Jianye might be checking the bid documents right now, and he knows much more than I do.

Li Jiacheng guessed correctly.

Chen Jianye was indeed looking at the bid documents.

To be precise, Chen Jianye, Zhang Jungang and the other two were all looking at the bid documents.

Chen Jianye, Cao Chai and Long Qiwen will conduct the initial review. After reading the bid documents, they will put a check mark or a cross on them and write their names and reasons.

Zhang Jungang is in charge of the second trial.

If the first-instance verdict is upheld, he only needs to write his own name.

If he wants to overturn the first-instance result, Zhang Jungang needs to negotiate with the first-instance judges.

Swish!

Chen Jianye drew a big cross on the tender document, wrote his name and reason for rejection, and placed it in the annotated area.

Zhang Jungang picked up the bidding document that Chen Jianye had just reviewed and looked at the results directly.

The signature was a big cross, and the reason was an attempt to bribe the staff.

Zhang Jungang quickly scanned the tender document, skipping the proposal part, and indeed saw the merchant's hidden thoughts.

"Haha, this merchant actually wants us to give him the agency rights and share the profits with us."

Zhang Jungang threw the tender document on the ground in disgust.

In fact, this is not the only merchant with such a thoughtful idea.

There is a huge demand for Hotpot in Hong Kong, and many people will find other ways to obtain the agency rights of Hotpot.

Zhang Jungang has a very clear attitude towards this.

No matter how good the plan is, any merchant with ulterior motives will be rejected.

Chen Jianye and the other three spent the entire morning reviewing the bidding documents.

After the meal, the four of them rested for an hour and continued the review.

"Hey, this business is quite interesting, it's a printing factory."

Cao Chai suddenly said.

Chen Jianye suddenly realized that the bidding documents for Mingyang Printing Factory were in Cao Chai's hands.

"How to say?"

Zhang Jungang asked.

"The owner of this factory is from Chaoshan, very patriotic, insists on speaking Cantonese in Hong Kong, spreads traditional culture, and recognizes our path."

"He said that if he obtained the agency rights for Redekuai, he would take out 20% of the net profits and return to Guangdong City to open a school and build bridges and roads."

Cao Chai handed over the tender document in his hand.

"What's his name?"

Zhang Jungang became interested.

Leaders like patriotic businessmen the most, not to mention patriotic businessmen who are willing to use their profits to build schools in their home country and do good deeds.

When this story gets out, it will be a very positive publicity case for the leaders and the Ministry of Foreign Trade.
