“Sigh!”
“Stinky Feng, that’s enough!”
“We’re on the street!”
Gu Muxi’s face turned as red as an apple, she glanced at him shyly and wiped her lips.
Stinky Feng was becoming more and more unrestrained!
Hmph~ Such a lecher!
“Hehe, okay, then we’ll continue when we get back,” Yi Feng licked his lips, seemingly unsatisfied.
“Hmph~ I don’t want to,” Gu Muxi arrogantly lifted her chin.
Seeing her coquettish demeanor, Yi Feng felt an itch in his heart, but considering they had reached second base multiple times, how far could a home run be?
No rush.
“Alright, it’s getting late, let’s head back. I heard there might be a roll call by the counselor tonight,” Yi Feng laughed.
“Ah, roll call, I almost forgot, let’s hurry, I don’t want to get points deducted on the first day!” Gu Muxi took his hand and hurried back.
The two returned to the school, and Yi Feng walked her to the dormitory.
It was already nine in the evening, and there weren’t many people at the dormitory entrance.
“Okay, Stinky Feng, I’m going up,” Gu Muxi waved her hand, showing a hint of reluctance.
Yi Feng leaned in, pointing to his right cheek, “Wait, give me a kiss before you go.”
Gu Muxi rolled her eyes at him but still pecked his right cheek like a dragonfly skimming water.
“Is that enough? Hmph~ Such a greedy guy, I’m going back now. You should head back early too!” Gu Muxi pouted and turned to leave.
Yi Feng grinned. Gu Muxi was so… easy to tease!
He hummed a tune happily on his way back to the dorm.
Just as he returned to the dorm, he ran into the counselor checking the rooms.
The counselor looked like he had just graduated from college, wearing glasses, but his demeanor was somewhat stern.
“Yi Feng, right? Why are you coming back so late? Do you want to be deducted points?” The counselor pushed his glasses up, showing no mercy.
“Hey, hey, Counselor Zhuang, don’t mind it. Here, have a cigarette. He just went out for a bit, probably didn’t notice you were checking the rooms,” Ke Yizhou quickly stepped forward, offering a cigarette and speaking up for Yi Feng.
Zhuang Zhen took the cigarette, pretending to be appeased, “This shouldn’t happen again. We’ll be checking the rooms for the next few days, keep that in mind.”
After saying that, he walked away, frowning at Yi Feng, “Move aside.”
Yi Feng stepped aside to let him pass, shaking his head after he left, “Getting a bit of power goes to their heads?”
He had met the most arrogant and pretentious counselor.
In theory, university counselors are supposed to guide students in their studies and life, almost like teachers. But nowadays, with a little power over approving leaves, roll calls, and scholarship applications, some love to lord it over the students.
“Let it go, Brother Feng. Don’t stoop to his level. We still need to maintain a good relationship with him for things like leaves and scholarships,” Ke Yizhou advised.
Yi Feng smiled, “I came here to study, not to be bullied. Besides, my full scholarship for four years is secured. He can’t touch me.”
Yang Jian got up from in front of his computer, “Right, Brother Feng, you’re the provincial top scorer, what’s there to be afraid of?”
“If he dares to be arrogant again, just confront him!”
Yi Feng shook his head and smiled, “Let’s not cause trouble. As long as he doesn’t provoke me, it’s all good.”
Yi Feng went back to his desk, ready to change his shoes.
Yang Jian sniffed, looking somewhat surprised, “Hm? Brother Feng, why do you smell like a woman’s perfume? It’s faint, but definitely a woman’s scent.”
Yi Feng gave him a look, jokingly said, “You dog-nosed or what, so sensitive?”
“Hehe, I, the young master, have a talent for recognizing women by their scent, self-taught! Come on, spill the beans, where did you go this afternoon to tonight?” Yang Jian came over, slinging his arm around Yi Feng’s shoulder, full of gossip.
“Where else? Went shopping with my girlfriend, walked around the night market,” Yi Feng casually replied.
“Girlfriend? Nice, Brother Feng, you were eyeing the new campus belle this morning, and now you’ve got a girlfriend, playing the field, huh? You’ve got my younger days’ vibe!” Yang Jian chuckled.
Yi Feng laughed, retorting, “Can’t you consider it’s the same person?”
Yang Jian shook his head, laughing, “New campus belle? Come on, Brother Feng, don’t kid around, that’s too much even for daydreaming.”
“I’m off to shower. Continue with your daydreams, won’t disturb your sweet dreams.”
Saying that, Yang Jian grabbed his clothes and went to the bathroom.
Yi Feng shrugged, not bothering with him, and logged on to handle company matters.
…
Two days after the enrollment, new students started their classes and prepared for the military training.
Once the camouflage uniforms arrived, the training would begin. However, the class teacher, Song Kangwen, informed them that due to issues with the clothing factory, the uniforms hadn’t been delivered on time and might take half a month.
On the third day of school, Yi Feng received a call from Wang Tie, mentioning that they were unable to get three popular accessories recently, and customers were pressing hard. Their supplier also ran out of stock, which could lead to a significant loss of customers.
Yi Feng immediately took leave to go to the company.
By noon, Yi Feng arrived at the company and met with Wang Tie in the office.
“Wang Tie, what’s the issue? Why can’t we get the tnt2m64 graphics cards? And why can’t we get Samsung 950nf and hy128 memory either? Weren’t we always getting stock from Kaiheng Company?” Yi Feng asked, frowning.
“I called Kaiheng Company, and they said the agency rights have changed. The provincial agents won’t supply them, and they’re out of stock too,” Wang Tie replied helplessly.
Yi Feng’s expression darkened, sensing something fishy.
“We can’t afford to lose sales on these three accessories. If we don’t have them but others do, we’ll lose customers!” Yi Feng said gravely.
This could trigger a supply crisis!
Customer purchasing behavior is target-driven. For example, if someone wants to buy the tnt2 graphics card and you don’t have it, they will look elsewhere. The expected revenue loss could be significant, especially since these three models are hot sellers, accounting for 15% to 20% of accessory sales.
Losing this market share would mean less profit.
“Wang Tie, let’s go to Dianke together and ask Kaiheng Company directly. Let’s also check with Nanqiao Company if they have these three accessories,” Yi Feng suggested after a moment of thought.
They needed to understand the situation before planning further.
“Okay, Brother Feng, I’ll go with you,” Wang Tie nodded.
He was responsible for managing Xifeng Electronics’ business, and it was crucial for him to maintain good relationships with suppliers and make his presence known. Yi Feng drove with Wang Tie to the Dianke Building.
They met with Kaiheng Company’s President, Lu Xinzhi, in the office.
After exchanging pleasantries in the meeting room, Yi Feng got straight to the point, “Manager Lu, weren’t Samsung 95nf and hy128 memory always supplied by your secondary agency? Why were the agency rights suddenly canceled?”
Lu Xinzhi sighed, “Mr. Yi, it all happened so suddenly. The provincial level is quite aggressive now, changing agencies as they please. I’ve tried reaching out, but the decision has already been made, and there’s nothing I can do.”
“Losing these accessories is a big loss for me too.”
Yi Feng pondered for a moment, then asked, “Do you know who took over the agency rights?”
“It seems to be Shengde Company, but I’m not entirely sure. I just heard it mentioned,” Lu Xinzhi shrugged.
Hearing Shengde Company, Yi Feng’s eyes narrowed.
It was them causing trouble!
“Knock, knock.”
Just then, the secretary knocked and entered, “Manager Lu, Shengde Company’s Manager Pan and Manager Yu have come to visit. Would you like to see them?”
Lu Xinzhi was visibly surprised; he hadn’t expected Shengde Company to come over.
“Okay, I’ll meet them,” Lu Xinzhi nodded.
“Hehe, Manager Lu, let’s go together,” Yi Feng smiled slightly.
The group left the meeting room and saw Pan Chengfu and Yu Guangchun in the office.
The latter two also noticed Yi Feng and Wang Tie following Lu Xinzhi.
“Hehe, Mr. Yi, long time no see,” Pan Chengfu stood up, his smile containing a hint of mockery.
Yi Feng stared at him, calmly asking, “I hear Manager Pan recently acquired the agency rights for three accessories?”
“Hehe, Mr. Yi, you’re well-informed,” Pan Chengfu admitted directly, not beating around the bush, even displaying a bit of pride.
He had spent a significant amount of money and leveraged many relationships to finally secure the agency rights from the provincial distributor for the Guangxi market.
This was a win-win for him: strengthening his market position and hitting Yi Feng.
He had come over to negotiate terms with Lu Xinzhi. As long as Lu Xinzhi agreed to distance himself from Yi Feng, Pan could offer him favorable supply terms.
And not just Lu Xinzhi—other competitors in the Dianke Building could also be approached.
As long as they were willing to distance themselves from Yi Feng, he could offer them more favorable prices.
Business ultimately revolves around benefits. If they agreed, he could restrict Yi Feng’s suppliers and essentially chokehold Yi Feng’s business.
All this was part of his plan!
