Chapter 18: What are you being so arrogant about?
While munching on a fragrant meat bun, Chen Yuanzhou pondered his next plan.
I finished eating just as I reached the shop entrance, then opened the door and started cleaning.
According to Zhuowu Company's regulations, all stores must be cleaned before opening in the morning to ensure a clean and refreshing store environment.
So when Zhang Wang and the others arrived at work, they found that all the work they were supposed to do had already been done, while Chen Yuanzhou was already sitting in front of the computer, engrossed in his work.
"Xiao Chen, are you aiming to be the top salesperson? You're working so hard!" Li Jing praised him. He knew that Chen Yuanzhou had been busy until very late last night and had appeared early this morning, which showed his diligence.
Chen Yuanzhou laughed and said, "Whether I'm the top seller or not doesn't matter; making money is what really matters."
"Make money? 450 per order?" Wu Ningfeng walked in, a meat bun dangling from his mouth. "With your service fee standards, even if you do 10 orders a month, you won't make much money."
"Hey~ Brother Feng, how about we make a bet?" Chen Yuanzhou said.
Upon hearing this, Wu Ningfeng instantly perked up!
Although he lost 1500 yuan yesterday, he felt that it was just Chen Yuanzhou's good luck. He even said that the customers were given to him by him, so it couldn't be attributed to Chen Yuanzhou's own ability.
He said arrogantly, "Alright, how do you want to bet?"
Chen Yuanzhou revealed a sly smile: "Let's bet on whether I can close another deal today, how about it? If I can't, I'll give you back the 1500."
His words shocked not only Wu Ningfeng, but also Zhang Wang, Li Jing, and everyone else!
It's important to understand that the market situation since 2008 has been far more than just dismal.
Last month, out of thousands of agents at Zhuowu Company, the highest number of deals closed was only four.
In the current market, closing two deals a month is extremely rare, and most people can hardly guarantee even one deal a month.
If it weren't for the subsidies from rental orders, many low-level agents might not even be able to survive for three months.
Even real estate agencies, including Zhuowu Company, have long experienced a large number of agents resigning and have had to close some peripheral stores, the only difference being the number of resignations.
"Xiao Chen~" Zhang Wang said, "Ning Feng doesn't lack 1500 yuan. If you insist on betting, it doesn't have to be with money. Let's change the stakes."
"Don't you think so?" He looked at Wu Ningfeng.
Upon hearing this, Wu Ningfeng understood that Zhang Wang was afraid of undermining Chen Yuanzhou's confidence. After all, Chen Yuanzhou was a newcomer who had just signed a contract, and it was understandable to be protective of him in this market. So Wu Ningfeng nodded and replied, "Right, right, I'm not short of money! How about this, if you lose, you can cover all the cleaning for this month."
"What if you actually close a deal..."
"Uh~"
Wu Ningfeng couldn't think of any good bets for a moment, but Zhang Wang laughed and said, "Little Chen, if you sign another deal today, I'll treat everyone to dinner tonight. Consider it benefiting from your success!"
"Okay, okay!"
"Yes, yes!"
Everyone quickly responded.
Just then, a figure walked into the store: "Zhang, you already met the benchmark sales target last month, and you even had money to treat everyone to dinner? Looks like you're living too comfortably!"
Chen Yuanzhou looked in the direction of the sound and saw a woman in her thirties, about 1.6 meters tall, wearing black-rimmed glasses, with a slender figure, dressed in a business suit, and carrying a laptop bag. It was none other than the regional manager, Lou Chunhua.
Despite his small stature, he exudes a domineering aura!
The moment she appeared, everyone fell silent, and they all began to bustle about in a theatrical manner, trying to avoid her.
"Ah~ Boss!" Zhang Wang quickly stepped forward with a smile: "We were just joking. We were just saying that if Chen Yuanzhou signs another deal today, I'll treat everyone to dinner."
"Oh?" Lou Chunhua approached Chen Yuanzhou, sized him up, and smiled slightly. "It's good to have confidence, but relying solely on self-financing won't work. A house worth over 300 million, and you're only charging 5000?"
"Wouldn't people laugh at us to death if they found out?"
"If those small companies were to think that Zhuowu is now capable of handling orders as small as 5000, ha~ that would be incredibly embarrassing!"
Comrade Xiao Chen had met Lou Chunhua before, but as a nobody, he didn't have any specific impression of her at all, only remembering that she was very serious when she spoke.
When Chen Yuanzhou heard what she said, he thought to himself, "This is not seriousness at all. She is ruthless to her subordinates, but even more ruthless to herself!"
This guy's a wolf in sheep's clothing! Ruthless and ruthless!
Faced with such a high-standard and strict leader, it's no wonder everyone is so afraid of her, but Chen Yuanzhou knows that such people are often very pragmatic.
As long as you can exceed the goals she sets, this kind of leader is actually the easiest to talk to.
So Chen Yuanzhou didn't care about her attitude; instead, he was a little curious about how a woman could develop such a personality.
After Lou Chunhua finished speaking, she turned to Zhang Wang and said seriously, "I see that everyone from your store has arrived. Let's have a morning meeting."
"Yes, yes~" Zhang Wang quickly greeted, "Come on, let's start the morning meeting!"
At his urging, everyone picked up their notebooks and prepared for the meeting.
This is almost standard practice for all real estate agencies: holding a meeting every morning to set daily goals, share closing experiences, and share property listings.
Sometimes, when dealing with difficult clients, colleagues need to work together, discuss, and develop a plan.
Newcomers can also use this time to ask questions and get answers to anything they don't understand.
In summary, this is a meeting where everyone can share information and exchange experiences; it is one of the management methods used by a store to increase cohesion and strengthen its combat effectiveness.
However, some industries, after adopting this practice, have gone so far as to have shamans performing rituals on the street outside their doors early in the morning, which is a bit excessive...
Lou Chunhua also took out her laptop from her bag, ready to listen in, when she heard Chen Yuanzhou speak.
"Manager, supervisor, can I skip the morning meeting?" he asked earnestly. "I have a property that I absolutely need to sell. I have to get all the clients who have scheduled viewings sorted out this morning, otherwise it will delay the afternoon viewings..."
Zhang Wang was completely stunned!
My young master~
Normally these kinds of things are easy to handle, but now that Master Wolf Extermination is right here!
Sure enough, Lou Chunhua's brows were furrowed into a deep frown.
She said, somewhat annoyed, "A morning meeting is delaying your client appointment? You just closed a self-produced order, and now you're putting on airs? No way, let's have a meeting!"
"Boss!" Chen Yuanzhou said without fear, "I'm sorry, it really will cause a delay!"
Everyone else was present during this conversation, and they were all secretly worried for Chen Yuanzhou. They had never seen anyone dare to defy Lou Chunhua to his face before!
Zhang Wang: "???"
Li Jing, Wu Ningfeng, Xu Chuanchuan, and the others exchanged bewildered glances: "(⊙ω⊙)!!!"
Lou Chunhua laughed in exasperation: "Fine, come on, let's see how many clients you have!"
As she spoke, she stepped forward and picked up the notebook in front of Chen Yuanzhou, only to be stunned after just one glance.
The notebook was filled with rows and rows of densely packed customer information…
She flipped through two more pages and roughly counted at least a hundred items!
"Where did you get so many customers?" Lou Chunhua asked subconsciously.
Chen Yuanzhou pursed his lips: "Boss, how about I scan it all first? I can share my experience after this deal is signed? Time is really tight."
Lou Chunhua was speechless.
When it comes to solid deals and performance, anything can be compromised; this is the fundamental rule of real estate agencies.
As long as you have enough performance, not to mention regional managers, even directors or general managers will have to put their arms around you and call you brothers.
This kind of thing has happened before!
But Lou Chunhua still felt that this matter was too far-fetched. Could it be that they could just sign a contract like that?
Who do you think you are?
He was just a newbie who signed a 5000 yuan self-pairing order.
What are you being so arrogant about?
What makes you so arrogant?
