MTL - My Years As a Car Dealer-Chapter 35 : The cheaper the better
Chapter 0035: The Cheaper the Better
Yesterday, the update was interrupted on the 25th, because the entire development area was disconnected from the Internet from the afternoon of the 24th.
There is no other way, only one more day off. I'm also annoyed that it's only a few days before I can get that 30-day continuous badge.
...
Not being able to drive is not a shameful thing, Zhang Chen nodded generously and admitted, saying that when his job is stable, he will go to the driving school to get his driver's license and learn to drive.
"Don't sell second-hand cars, just follow the old sister to the Tiandi Hotel." Sister Ji believes that Zhang Chen's intelligence is what she lacks. With his help, her hotel business will definitely improve. I also have the money to buy a car and a house for my younger brother.
Zhang Chen shook his head and refused. He told Sister Ji the reason why he went to work in Sihai Group, and said that he would keep his promise and consider changing jobs after paying off the debt.
Sister Ji thought about paying Zhang Chen the debt, but she learned from today's events that the young and handsome little brother was actually very stubborn. If she insisted on paying him the debt, he could ignore him angrily.
In the end, it was Sister Ji who drove Zhang Chen back to school in person.
Zhang Chen returned to the dormitory and checked his brother Wang Qiang's injury, and the wound healed well.
After a night of silence, I took the bus for more than two hours to the car shop the next day, exactly nine o'clock.
Zhang Chen found that everyone connected to Manager Wang was late collectively.
It is estimated that I drank all the pieces yesterday, and I didn't get up in the morning.
The morning meeting could not be held, Zhang Chen opened the door of the VIP room, sat on the sofa and looked through the information of the model.
Page by page slowly turned, Zhang Chen studied for a few days and knew all the models of Cosmopolitan Motors well.
Different from other used car dealers, Sihai Auto is backed by Sihai Auto Sales Group, and the models it sells are mainly quasi-new cars such as damaged cars and stock cars.
Most of the remaining models are used cars purchased from formal channels.
This has created an embarrassing situation for the Four Seas Motor Company.
Customers who buy new cars despise defective transported cars, and dislike the old models of stock cars with low configuration.
And the price of these quasi-new cars remains high, and there is no price advantage at all compared with normal used cars.
In addition, Manager Wang is an honest person, and refuses to sell those rolling carts, large cutting carts, pure water, medicine carts that make money but lose their conscience...
As a result, Sihai Motor Co., Ltd. is not small in scale, but loses money every month.
Zhang Chen can see that if he wants to reverse the loss-making situation, he must adjust the business direction, and everything is aimed at meeting the needs of the public.
What are you buying used cars for?
Isn't it still cost-effective?
Therefore, it is necessary to expand the scope and quantity of ordinary second-hand cars purchased, and no longer focus on damaged cars and stock cars.
Zhang Chen has been at Sihai Motors for a few days, and he has never seen a customer come to sell a car.
On the contrary, when I commute to get off work or go to the toilet, I see many other car dealers buying used cars.
Zhang Chen thought about waiting for Manager Wang to come and ask him about this.
"Hey, by the way, isn't there a used car condition appraisal skill in the system?" Zhang Chen remembered. He was too lazy to click on the car dealer's mall to check, and asked the system directly, "System system, give me the used car condition appraisal skill."
"The system prompts that the used car condition appraisal skill is an expert-level skill. Please upgrade your level from a trainee car dealer to an ordinary car dealer, otherwise you will not be able to buy it."
Zhang Chen hurriedly clicked on the car dealer mall in the car dealer system. Except for the box showing the sales skills of used car experts on the Jiugong grid, the other boxes were still dark, and he couldn't see anything clearly.
The system was silent, as if hesitating to say whether or not to speak, and then continued after a while; "Please pay off the excess value of the credit in time, otherwise, you will not be able to smoothly advance to the ordinary car dealership, and you will not be able to purchase high-end skills..."
"Okay, okay." Zhang Chen interrupted the system impatiently, but instead asked him, "You act like a debt collector every day, are you bothered?"
The system was also on fire, and he reprimanded Zhang Chen in a cold tone: "Please abide by the spirit of the contract, maintain personal credit, and pay off the pleasure value of credit in a timely manner."
When it comes to the spirit of the contract and maintaining personal credit, Zhang Chen is on fire.
Zhang Chen has no merits, but he attaches great importance to friendship and righteousness, and takes integrity very seriously.
Otherwise, he wouldn't give up the minimum annual income of two million just for a promise to Sister Ji.
"Are you honest with me?" Zhang Chen got so mad that he almost pointed at the system's nose and scolded, "Who was unreasonable to bind me? Did I agree? Did you take my permission? I know. How much do I hate you?"
A few days ago, the system was really begging to be tied to Zhang Chen, and the car dealer system was run without his consent.
The system had nothing to say, silently said "I'm blind", and ignored Zhang Chen again.
After arguing with the system, Zhang Chen's chest heaved violently, and suddenly the system's prompt sounded in his mind:
"Attention to the host, there is a client approaching.
Client: Zhang Tao, male, 29 years old, owner of an individual underwear factory.
Budget: no more than 50,000 yuan, preferably around 20,000 yuan.
Requirements: I want to buy a car for my daughter-in-law to commute to and from get off work, and I require a car that is durable and stable, fuel-efficient and easy to drive. "
"Twenty thousand yuan?" Zhang Chen's mind immediately thought of the existing Passat B5, the seventh-generation Accord, and the Jetta or Wuling Light that can be bought for a few thousand yuan.
However, the customer also required the leather to be durable and stable, fuel-efficient, and easy to drive. It was especially pointed out that it was a car for his wife.
Female driver, Zhang Chen excluded Jetta and Wuling Light.
Finally, after thinking about it, I put the Passat B5 and the seventh-generation Accord PASS again, because they all sold for 20,000 yuan. The Passat B5 and the seventh-generation Accord have a mileage of over 200,000 kilometers, which does not meet the requirements of fuel-efficient and easy-to-drive. All of them are National III cars, and they cannot enter the Third Ring Road in the seaside city.
Raising the price a little, Zhang Chen remembered the Fit, Swift, Polo, Toyota Zhixuan, and Baojun 310w in the car dealership, which were more in line with Wang Tao's needs.
Zhang Chen got up and looked outside the VIP room. Sure enough, there was a fat man walking towards the car.
The man had snow-white gauze wrapped around his head, and his right arm was also splinted, hanging over his chest.
To Zhang Chen's surprise, there was a thin young man beside Zhang Tao. Isn't that Zhang Hu?
The two walked side by side, joking and laughing from time to time, as if they were familiar.
"Oh, and Zhang Hu are friends!" Zhang Chen suddenly realized, sat back on the sofa and did not intend to compete with Zhang Hu for customers, and then flipped through the car dealer's information.
Who would have thought that Zhang Hu didn't take Zhang Tao to choose a vehicle, and saw Zhang Chen sitting in the VIP room from a distance, turned his head left and right to see that there was no one else, and immediately pulled Zhang Tao and ran quickly.
After entering the VIP room, Zhang Hu and Zhang Tao stood directly in front of Zhang Chen. The two ran out of breath. Zhang Hu asked nervously, "Has anyone else arrived yet?"
"No, I guess I drank too much yesterday." Although Zhang Tao was Zhang Hu's customer, Zhang Chen still stood up and shook hands with him to say hello.
And it was quite awkward. Zhang Tao could only move with his left hand. After shaking hands, Zhang Tao smiled awkwardly and apologized to Zhang Chen again and again, saying sorry.
"What's this? Who won't get sick?" Zhang Chen didn't mind shaking his left hand at all, and went to pour tea for Zhang Tao affectionately.
"Don't be busy, Zhang Chen, I have an urgent matter with you when no one else is here." Zhang Hu stopped Zhang Chen and told him not to be busy and listen to himself first.
"Huh? You said." Zhang Chen stretched out his hand to signal Zhang Tao and Zhang Hu to sit down, and then stared at Zhang Hu and wondered what he was looking for.
Zhang Hu first turned around and glanced outside the car dealership, and after confirming that no one was there, he quickly explained the situation again.
It turned out that Zhang Tao was Zhang Hu's cousin, and they lived in the urban-rural junction of the seaside city.
Zhang Tao's family set up a small underwear factory, recruited a few workers to make some autumn clothes, long pants, underwear, etc., and sold them to the wholesale market to earn some hard money.
Unfortunately, the family's small underwear factory accidentally caught fire a month ago. The house was burnt clean and two female workers were seriously injured.
Zhang Tao himself jumped from the third floor at the time, and his life was not lost.
Since Zhang Tao did not buy any insurance, he can only bear all kinds of losses by himself.
Zhang Tao spent all the money in the family before saving the lives of the two seriously injured female workers.
There is no money at home, Zhang Tao himself is still injured, but life has to go on!
Zhang Tao's wife has been helping with the business at home, and now she takes the initiative to ask to work outside to earn money to support her family.
His wife went out early and returned late, and she went to work in the wind and rain. Every time Zhang Tao saw her haggard face, he hated himself for being useless.
As the saying goes, it takes 100 days for a broken muscle to move a bone, not to mention Zhang Tao's right arm was comminuted, and he is recovering well if he can move for a year.
Can't work for his wife, Zhang Tao thinks that his wife has a driver's license, so he buys a car for his wife and lets her drive to and from get off work.
Zhang Tao found his parents, and borrowed more than 40,000 yuan from his brother of the same clan, intending to buy a second-hand car.
Zhang Tao doesn't know much about cars, and his requirements are not high. He just hopes that the leather is durable, stable in performance, fuel-efficient and easy to drive. For the price, of course, the cheaper the better.
Zhang Tao knew that his cousin Zhang Hu worked in a used car dealership in the world, so he approached him early in the morning and asked him to choose a satisfactory model for him.
No, Zhang Hu brought his cousin to find Zhang Chen.
"I drank too much yesterday, and I vomited so much that I didn't know how to get home." Zhang Hu smiled, "If my brother didn't pull me up from the bed this morning, I wouldn't be able to get up now."
Zhang Chen smiled hehely. Yesterday, each of these boys was given almost two catties of white wine by himself. Those who didn't drink it were hospitalized, and they were considered young and healthy.
But Zhang Chen didn't understand a question, so he asked Zhang Hu: "You are a salesman yourself, why are you looking for me again?"
"Me?" The honest man Zhang Hu's old face was flushed, and he explained embarrassedly, "Of course, buying a car for my brother will cost the least money and buy the best car. I know how much I have, and I'm afraid to pick and choose. If there is a problem with the car in the future, I can rest assured that you can let my sister-in-law drive it."
"That's it, okay, I agree." Zhang Chen also hopes to help Zhang Tao, "Actually, you also know the situation of our car dealership, don't worry about the condition of the car, each car has been identified and tested by Lai Wu and Manager Wang. What's wrong is written on the information."
When Lai Wu was mentioned, Zhang Hu had a look of disgust on his face, and whispered: "Zhang Chen, you are really good-natured, of course I believe you. Lai Wu is different, that kid is not only lazy, but also a traitor, who is it? Do you know if he was slacking off, or deliberately left a hand on the information?"
"I'll wipe, after the appraisal and inspection, leave a hand on the data?" Zhang Chen's cautious liver thumped wildly, thinking that if he wanted to develop in this industry, it was very necessary to acquire the skills of second-hand car condition appraisal.
The three of them were about to go to see the car, and the moment they walked out of the VIP room, Zhang Hu suddenly pulled Zhang Chen again, stared at Zhang Chen for a moment, and seemed to gather up his courage before saying, "You must do me a favor."
"What are you busy with? You said." Zhang Chen was so angry that he didn't say anything, and asked me to promise?
"It's like this." Zhang Hu explained nervously, "After my brother buys the car, I want you to give me the list..."
Zhang Chen hadn't spoken yet, but Zhang Tao was unhappy, and even strode forward to approach Zhang Hu, scolding his brother: "Huzi, don't go too far, Zhang Chen helped us pick the car, but also gave you the list? Do you want to? Is money going crazy?"
"Brother, it's not what you think, you listen to my explanation." Zhang Hu was frightened and screamed and said the reason.
Zhang Hu thought that Zhang Chen's commission was only 2/10,000, and for 50,000 yuan to buy a car, the commission he got was only 10 yuan.
And if it was replaced by a car sold by Zhang Hu, his commission would be dozens of times higher than Zhang Chen's.
Isn't the cousin's family short of money? Zhang Hu wanted to report to the car dealership in his own name, and return the commission he earned to his brother.
Of course, Zhang Hu would not swallow Zhang Chen's commission, but would still give him a lot of points.
Later, Zhang Hu sold the car, and then transferred the list to Zhang Chen to compensate him for the number of lost lists.

Yesterday, the update was interrupted on the 25th, because the entire development area was disconnected from the Internet from the afternoon of the 24th.
