Chapter 294: Let Me Touch Your Abs
by xennovelOn the last day of July, the market research activities in four first-tier cities concluded. The fifteen people stacked the collected information together, looking thicker than a dictionary, showing that even though they played around, they took work very seriously.
Especially Lu Feiyu, who not only completed the market research but also coordinated with Wanzhong’s marketing department to complete an online marketing campaign.
At noon that day, Jiang Qin led the members of Room 208 away from Shencheng to a seaside vacation city, booking two beachfront villas.
During the day they barbecued, played volleyball, chatted, and bragged. At night they worked on summarizing the information in the sea breeze. This leisurely holiday made everyone happy.
The summer vacation lasted two months. Staying at home the whole time would be unbearable, but their half-work, half-play lifestyle was more interesting.
During this time, Jiang Qin showed his abs to the little rich girl twice, making her drool but still saying the same thing – good friends can only look, no touching, or else it would be breaking the rules and their friendship wouldn’t be pure.
“Men in love are really perverted. The boss actually worked out abs?”
“Yeah, the lady boss just said she liked it and he really spent two months training hard. He really spoils her.”
“The boss may be quite a dog as a boss, but he’s definitely a perfect boyfriend.”
The girls of Room 208 whispered to each other, looking at the boss’s abs again and again, also feeling like touching them.
“Work hard, whoever finishes the task first gets to touch first.” Jiang Qin generously declared.
Feng Nanshu looked at him coldly, “Jiang Qin, I want to kick you.”
“Touching won’t make the meat fall off. Why are you so possessive? It’s not right. For an outstanding people’s entrepreneur, doing things that motivate employees to work hard without spending money, why not?”
“Then what task do I need to complete to touch it?” Feng Nanshu asked seriously while staring at his abs.
Jiang Qin put down the clothes tucked under his arm, “I won’t let you touch. If I let you touch easily, how can I keep teasing you?”
“But I want to touch.”
“Feng Nanshu, I find you really lecherous.”
The little rich girl gave a cold snort, but her eyes remained glued to Jiang Qin’s abs, obviously craving badly.
By early August, Room 208 had finished compiling all the research reports from the four cities and summarized them together, sending them to the group-buy Wanzhong branch.
Based on this first-hand information, all employees of the marketing department were divided into four groups. Each group targeted a city, tried their best to prepare for the early promotion stage based on its cultural environment, commercial characteristics and people’s living habits.
Room 208’s summer trip was actually to build a framework, determine the direction, and set the anchor for Zhihu’s promotion.
After the framework was set up, more details needed to be refined and supplemented.
How to develop local on-the-ground promotion teams, how to efficiently stir up a storm in university towns, how to shorten the promotion time, and how to stabilize the traffic after achieving the goal.
These were all things Wanzhong needed to consider after the summer vacation ended.
The opportunity for group-buying had not yet arrived. Whether waiting for the wind or chasing the wind, it was a long process of idling for enterprises.
Fortunately, the Linchuan market was already mature and self-sufficient, so as long as it wasn’t burning money idly, Jiang Qin could handle it.
During this idle stage, Jiang Qin planned to complete two goals first.
First, use Zhihu’s promotion to cultivate professional on-the-ground promotion teams and form efficient promotion plans for group-buying to use.
Second, use Zhihu’s on-the-ground promotion network to build offline branches favorable for group-buying.
After completing these two goals, no matter how intense the competition was when the opportunity arrived, Jiang Qin could ensure his foundation remained unshakable.
Because doing internet business was like flying a kite – if the wind is too small it can’t rise, but if it’s too strong the line will break. When fighting for market share, the turbulence will be unprecedented, so you must insert the ground anchor before the wind comes.
Zhihu – University Town – Traffic Pool – Group-buy – Payment License – Market Share.
Jiang Qin wrote a long chain on the paper, tore it into medium-sized squares and put it in his wallet.
While Room 208 was flying around conducting market research, the Wanzhong branch was not idle either.
At the beginning of the summer vacation, Vienna Hotel Chain and Hongjin Dining & Entertainment expressed their intention to reach a strategic cooperation with them, wanting to advance and retreat together for joint promotion.
Although they valued group-buying, through the efforts of the business department, the final agreement reached was a bundled marketing plan between major chain companies and Zhihu.
In addition, some third and fourth-tier chain brands born in Linchuan, such as Zero Hour Convenience Store, Burger King Fast Food, Desheng Pizza, Fisher Restaurant, etc., were all tied to the chariot.
In other words, when this summer ends and Zhihu officially starts nationwide marketing, what it brings is the power of all of Linchuan.
The Linchuan municipal government was very interested after learning of this news, and even formed a special negotiation team, hoping to gather the power of more Linchuan brands into this marketing campaign.
Gathering the city’s power to ride the wind – regardless of the final result, this will become an impressive achievement.
Of course, if the project goes well and gives birth to a few national brands, it will play a huge role in Linchuan’s industrial upgrading.
To this end, the leaders of the Linchuan municipal government specially invited Jiang Qin to attend a work meeting in early August to report on the details of the Zhihu promotion project.
Getting government endorsement on the eve of the promotion was undoubtedly the best boost for Jiang Qin, so he ended his vacation early and bought a ticket to Linchuan.
“I’m going to Linchuan for a meeting these few days. You guys play a few more days. Buy your tickets on the 5th and go home. For the remaining days, Wenhao and Lanlan are in charge of the team.”
“Okay, boss.”
Jiang Qin turned to look at Su Nai, “What stage is the website upgrade at?”
Su Nai took out her portable notebook from her bag, “After accessing student information, we cleared most of the social accounts, upgraded personal homepages, updated the follow and friend functions, and added a same-school section and same-school friending function.”
“Wenhao, what about the content?”
“We have deeply optimized the content, selected a batch of topics that college students are most concerned about, and conducted secondary guidance.”
Jiang Qin nodded, “Prepare for everything to cope with Zhihu’s promotion. This time, we want to fly faster and better.”
After a short meeting, Jiang Qin packed his things and flew to Linchuan with Feng Nanshu.
The little rich girl was really too clingy to him. Leaving her alone in this unfamiliar city was definitely not okay. Although she was lively and nimble when she was with Jiang Qin, as soon as she couldn’t see Jiang Qin, she would immediately become timid and aloof, even if Wei Lanlan and Su Nai were by her side, she would feel scared.
For her, only Jiang Qin could give her a sense of security. This was a very obvious psychological dependence.
At six o’clock in the evening, Jiang Qin landed in Linchuan. Wang Peixiang of Vienna Hotel specially sent a car to pick them up and took them to their hotel.
Also starting from Jiang Qin’s landing, Linchuan’s bosses had already begun arranging a dinner banquet.
Everyone knew that this discussion meeting was led by the Linchuan municipal government, and the protagonists of the discussion meeting were Jiang Qin and his Zhihu. So no matter what, this favor must be given enough.
Moreover, everyone had experienced the marketing of group-buying and knew that although Jiang Qin was young, his strength was really not to be underestimated.
“I have to go to a banquet tonight. Can you stay in the hotel and wait for me?”
Feng Nanshu glanced out the window, her eyelashes fluttering lightly twice, “But I really want to stick to you.”
Jiang Qin reached out and pinched her pink little face, “This banquet is different from our Room 208 gatherings. The composition is very complicated and the people are also very complicated. I don’t want your pretty face to be seen.”
“Then let me touch your abs and I’ll wait for you obediently in the hotel.” Feng Nanshu had learned to negotiate.
Jiang Qin narrowed his eyes, “You had it planned long ago, right?”
“No, I’m not as smart as you think at all.”
Jiang Qin was silent for a moment, then lifted the short-sleeved shirt he was wearing, laid back, closed his eyes, steeled himself, and put on a look of being ravished.
Seeing this scene, the aloof little rich girl slowly reached out her hand, then groped all over, her eyes gradually starting to ripple like a silly tabby cat.
If a policeman came to check the room, he would arrest them without asking. Definitely no unjust, false or wrongful cases.
Because this was an erotic deal, a naked erotic deal.
“Okay, that’s enough.”
“Just a little longer, just a little while.”
“I treat you as a friend, but you just want to grope me…”
Half an hour later, Jiang Qin, who had been ravished, left the hotel room, found a place to calm down for a while, and adjusted his size before coming to the Longwei International Hotel to attend the banquet.
In the brightly lit banquet hall, many pot-bellied bosses were chatting and joking with smiles on their faces.
These people were all successful people in Linchuan. Fat and rich, they were the existence of gold master daddies in any industry. Jiang Qin came to see them, in fact, to maximize the benefits of the promotion.
“President Jiang, long time no see.”
“Long time no see, President Liu.”
“The scope of group-buying business is getting wider and wider now. My son just started high school, and now classmates will team up for coupons for gatherings.”
Before the banquet, the bosses’ chat focus was still on group-buying. After all, compared with Zhihu, which mainly focuses on social networking, group-buying, which can be directly linked to money, was the most eye-catching.
In fact, their pre-meeting contact this time was also to reconfirm whether Jiang Qin really had no intention of promoting group-buying.
If so, compared to Zhihu, they would still prefer to choose group-buying.
However, Jiang Qin was very familiar with banquet matters. When he spoke, he was leakproof and obscure, making people feel that they couldn’t see through him.
But who would have thought that an hour ago, this old hand at banquets was still a pure and innocent boy who was ravished.
