"Yue'er has returned to the United States?" Looking at the QQ message sent by Yue'er, Tang Xiaosheng was slightly startled and a little surprised. In the past three months, Yue'er has been traveling in China and visited seven or eight cities. Tang Xiaosheng thought that she would probably have to struggle in China for a while, but he didn't expect that this girl would suddenly return to the United States. After reading the message, Tang Xiaosheng replied to Yue'er. However, Yue'er's QQ avatar was gray at this time. She seemed to be offline and did not respond. Tang Xiaosheng didn¡¯t pay attention and began to search for information about computers on the Internet. Now that you have decided to learn computer programs, it is obviously necessary to buy a computer. After searching on the Internet for a while, Tang Xiaosheng had a rough idea of ??the price of computers. A computer with ordinary configurations can be purchased for 3,000 yuan, which is basically within the range he can afford. Tang Xiaosheng has been moving bricks for more than two years and still has a little savings. Tang Xiaosheng was a little hesitant as to whether to buy a computer or not. It was not that he was reluctant to buy it, but that he felt uneasy after buying it. Tang Xiaosheng was really worried if he spent several thousand yuan to buy a computer and put it in a rental house in the suburbs. That room had been visited by thieves seven or eight times. Tang Xiaosheng had to move bricks at the construction site during the day. Placing a computer in the room might allow thieves to take advantage of it. Of course, Tang Xiaosheng can consider changing his house, but once he changes his house, the rent will inevitably rise, and the expenses will definitely rise sharply, which may exceed Tang Xiaosheng's budget. What's more, Tang Xiaosheng has lived in this room for more than two years, and he is really reluctant to change it. Just when Tang Xiaosheng was hesitating, a recruitment advertisement in the computer mall attracted his attention. The job advertisement is for a computer salesperson. The job requirements are very low and there is no academic qualification requirement. There is no limit on gender or age. There is only one requirement - familiarity with computer accessories and basic computer knowledge. After reading this recruitment advertisement, Tang Xiaosheng suddenly had an idea. The requirements for a computer salesperson seemed not to be high. Should you consider giving it a try yourself? Since Tang Xiaosheng has decided to devote himself to the computer field, he should naturally engage in more computer-related careers. Moving bricks on construction sites is not an option. Computer salesmen can at least deal with computers every day, which will be helpful to their future career development, at least more useful than moving bricks. What¡¯s more, compared to moving bricks. The job of a computer salesperson sounds like a much higher-end job. It is said that a computer salesperson can also print personal business cards, which is completely unmatched by bricklayers. After a short period of consideration and weighing, Tang Xiaosheng made a decisive decision - to apply for a job as a computer salesperson in the Computer City. Of course, Tang Xiaosheng knew nothing about computers at this time before applying for the job. You need to first master the basic knowledge of computer accessories. So, starting from July 27, Tang Xiaosheng started to study computer accessories again, such as motherboard, CPU, CPU fan, memory, graphics card, sound card, power supply, etc. Anyway, he had to study everything in the computer case and memorize it. The development history of each accessory, the model of the accessory, various parameters and uses of the accessory. Tang Xiaosheng is a computer layman and encountered many problems in the process of learning. So he went to the Internet cafe every now and then to check information. Every time he goes online, he habitually logs in to Q-Q and always pays attention to Yue'er's updates. ¡°It¡¯s just that from July 27 to August 15, for more than half a month, Yue¡¯er didn¡¯t send any more information. Since returning to the United States, Yue'er seems to have disappeared from the world and has never been online at all. Tang Xiaosheng is a little confused, what on earth is this girl doing in the United States? And on August 15, Tang Xiaosheng sent a message to Yue'er. Because today is Yue'er's birthday. At the same time, Tang Xiaosheng also sent Yue'er a new song he had just written through an offline file. The song's name was "The Legend of Ziwen", which was regarded as a birthday gift. After the song was sent, Yue'er did not receive it. This girl seems to be really not online. Tang Xiaosheng didn¡¯t care. Anyway, he had already passed on the song and fulfilled his original promise to Yue¡¯er. Over the next two months, Tang Xiaosheng continued to move bricks on the field during the day and studied computer accessories at night. After more than 90 days of study, Tang Xiaosheng thought he had mastered the basic knowledge of computer accessories and decided to go to the Computer City to apply for a job as a computer salesperson. The recruitment of salespeople in Computer City is effective in the long term and you can go there at any time, because the turnover of salespeople in Computer City is very high, and many salespeople with poor performance can only find another way out. On October 28, Tang Xiaosheng asked for a day off from the contractor at the construction site, then put on clean clothes and went to the Computer City to apply for a job. There are hundreds of stores in the computer city, and about a quarter of them are recruiting salespeople. Tang Xiaosheng walked around the computer city and finally found a store that looked relatively large, "Venix Computer" ??Then I walked into the store to apply for the job with a feeling of trepidation. When applying for a job, the owner of the "Daystar Computer" store asked Tang Xiaosheng for a resume. Tang Xiaosheng was well prepared. Before coming to the Computer City, he had already written a resume on paper with a pen. The content of the resume is as follows: Name: Tang Xiaosheng Gender: Male Personal experience: Graduated from high school in June 2007. From September 2007 to June 2010, I worked at a construction site in XX City. Since June 2010, I have taught myself basic computer knowledge and am familiar with various computer accessories. Personal honor: He still holds the record of moving 12 carts of bricks in one day. Position applied for: Computer Salesperson Advantages: Hard-working and motivated Disadvantages: Appearance may affect sales After reading this handwritten resume, the store owner smiled and asked Tang Xiaosheng: "You used to move bricks at the construction site ?" Tang Xiaosheng nodded: "Yes. But, I have studied computers." The boss asked: "Can you assemble a computer?" Tang Xiaosheng thought for a moment and nodded: "I will install one now. Take a look." After a while, a pile of computer accessories was placed in front of Tang Xiaosheng. Looking at these computer accessories, Tang Xiaosheng was still quite nervous. Although he had studied computer accessories, he had only learned about them from books and had never practiced them. I feel unsure. However, when things got to this point, Tang Xiaosheng had no choice but to bite the bullet. If the assembly fails, the worst possible outcome is to try another store and apply again. Anyway, there are as many stores as there are in this computer city. With such a mentality. Tang Xiaosheng took a deep breath and started to assemble the computer according to the introductions he read in several computer books. He took out the motherboard and installed the CPU first and then the CPU fan. Plug in the memory module, plug in the graphics card, then install the hard drive, DVD and power supply, and then connect various data cables and power cables. After doing it, turn on the power and simply set the BIOS. Use partitioning software to format and partition the hard drive, and finally use a five-yuan pirated CD to install a pirated XP system on the computer. About fifty minutes later, everything was finally done. "Okay." Tang Xiaosheng wiped the sweat from his forehead and said. The boss commented: "The assembly speed is a little slow. The salespersons in our store are not only required to sell, but also to assemble computers for customers. If customers need it, they are also required to help customers transport computers. Under normal circumstances, we require salespeople The time it takes to assemble a computer should not exceed 20 minutes. " Tang Xiaosheng said: "This is my first time assembling a computer, so I am a bit inexperienced. If I assemble it a few more times, 20 minutes should be fine." The boss nodded and said, "You. What are the salary requirements?" Tang Xiaosheng came to the Computer City with a learning attitude and lowered his attitude: "There are no requirements." The boss thought for a while and said, "There are two options for the salary of the salesperson in our store. There is a basic salary, and there is no basic salary. The basic salary is 800 yuan a month, and then 20% of the profit is taken based on personal performance. There is no basic salary, but it can be based on personal performance. Take 50% of the profits. Think about it, should you have a basic salary or not?" Tang Xiaosheng thought for a while. He said: "I don't want a basic salary." The boss reminded: "If you don't want a basic salary, if you don't sell the computer, you won't get a penny." Tang Xiaosheng: "No problem." The boss nodded: "Okay, you can Give it a try, when can you go to work? " "Uh within this week." Tang Xiaosheng is still a bricklayer at the construction site. If he wants to change jobs in the computer city, he has to discuss it with the contractor at the construction site. The wages for moving bricks for the past two months have been paid. ¡°Okay, you can come to work at any time, just look for me when you come over.¡± The boss said. In this way, Tang Xiaosheng got a job as a salesperson in Computer City without any danger, and the situation was smoother than he imagined. After leaving the computer city, Tang Xiaosheng immediately went to the construction site to find the foreman and prepared to resign from him. After hearing that Tang Xiaosheng was leaving, the contractor was a little reluctant and repeatedly tried to persuade him to stay. He also said that he would give him a salary increase of 200 yuan next month. Tang Xiaosheng remained unmoved by what the contractor said. Half a year ago, the contractor announced that he would raise wages, but half a year later, there was no movement at all. So, Tang Xiaosheng politely rejected the contractor's kindness and was determined to join the computer sales industry. After repeated persuasion to no avail, the contractor knew that he could no longer retain anyone, so he had no choice but to promise that he would pay all his wages to Tang Xiaosheng in two days. Tang Xiaosheng was quite pleased with this. The foreman was quite kind. Two days later, Tang XiaoShengji officially resigned from the construction site, ending his three-year brick-moving career. On the day of his resignation, Tang Xiaosheng was still in a heavy mood. He has been working at the construction site for three years, and he got his first pot of gold at the construction site. He has many beautiful memories here, and he is really reluctant to part with them. "However, men are ambitious in all directions. Although the construction site is nostalgic, in order to realize his ideal, Tang Xiaosheng resolutely gave up the job of moving bricks. After leaving the construction site, Tang Xiaosheng moved to Computer City and started his career as a computer salesman. On the first day of work, the store owner printed 200 personal business cards for Tang Xiaosheng. The words clearly read on the business cards [Senior Salesperson of Daystar Computer Technology Company: Tang Xiaosheng]. Not to mention, this name looks quite high-end, at least higher than the bricklayers at the construction site. Brick movers spend their entire lives moving, and they probably don¡¯t even have a business card. Even if you have a business card, it would be embarrassing if you printed a title like "Senior Bricklayer" on the business card. Therefore, it is still very important for men to choose an industry. After getting his personal business card, Tang Xiaosheng officially started selling computers in the Computer City. Tang Xiaosheng still feels very stressed about this brand new job. For him, this is a completely unfamiliar field. but. After staying in the computer city for a few days, this strange feeling disappeared, because Tang Xiaosheng found that being a salesperson was similar to that of a prostitute in a brothel. He had to solicit customers every day, except soliciting customers. Still soliciting customers. The more customers you attract, the more opportunities you have. Customers are God, and customers are money. Of course, there are some differences between being a salesperson and being a prostitute. Prostitutes usually solicit clients from men, more specifically. He is a man with sexual needs and has certain limitations. But computer salesmen are different, whether they are men or women, old people or children. Everyone will become their target of soliciting customers, both men and women. Whenever they see someone, the salesperson will come up to them and ask: "Hello, do you need to buy a computer or accessories? How can I help you?" Computer City salespersons say this hundreds of times a day , some motivated salespeople may say this thousands of times a day. This is purely a physical job. On the first day in the computer city, Tang Xiaosheng was very tired, not physically but also in his throat. He kept chattering all day long, which was really unbearable. However, there are also advantages to being a salesperson, that is, you can use a computer for free. In the past, Tang Xiaosheng had to go to an Internet cafe to check information, and it cost more than ten yuan each time to go online. Now that all the money has been saved, from this perspective, Tang Xiaosheng still has a basic salary. This opportunity to access the Internet for free is the basic salary, calculated. It's a few hundred yuan a month. Due to the needs of sales work, Tang Xiaosheng always uses QQ when working to facilitate contact with customers. He originally only had Yue'er as a friend on his QQ, but since he started working in the computer city, he has added many customers to his QQ. Every day when he goes to work, Tang Xiaosheng¡¯s QQ is always online, and he can receive some QQ messages from time to time. However, these messages are sent by customers. Since July 27, 2010, Tang Xiaosheng has never received any messages from Yue'er. Several months have passed and there is no news from Yue'er. Regarding this issue, Tang Xiaosheng was also a little confused and didn't know what was going on. Even though Yue'er has returned to the United States and uses QQ less frequently, she shouldn't be offline for several months in a row, right? Tang Xiaosheng also sent several messages to Yue'er, but unfortunately, all the messages were lost and no feedback was received. Tang Xiaosheng couldn¡¯t help but wonder if Yue¡¯er¡¯s QQ account had been hacked or if she had forgotten her login password. Although there has been no news from Yue'er for several months, Tang Xiaosheng still thinks of her every day. Whenever he returns to the rental house after get off work and sees the acoustic guitar on the bed, he can't help but think of Yue'er. When I go to bed at night, I still dream about this girl. While working in the computer city during the day, whenever the QQ message sounded, a thought would pass through Tang Xiaosheng's mind involuntarily: Could it be Yue'er who sent the message? However, every time I click on the information, I am disappointed. All QQ messages were sent by customers, and Yue'er didn't have any. However, this expectation for Yue'er has become a kind of pleasure in Tang Xiaosheng's daily work, because the next message sent may be from Yue'er. With such expectations, Tang Xiaosheng continued to buy computers in the computer city. After working here for a month, he had a clearer understanding of this job. Although there are hundreds of stores in Computer City, the goods can be exchanged back and forth between the stores. In other words, the supply of goods in each store is similar, and the prices they can get are also similar. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ???, among the hundreds of salesmen in the computer scene, it is basically impossible to gain a price advantage. Everyone has the same goods and the price is the same. If you want many salespeople to stand out, you can only rely on two aspects, one is connections and the other is deception skills. It goes without saying that you have connections. After being around the computer city for a long time, you know a lot of people, so sales work is naturally easy. As for salesmen like Tang Xiaosheng who have no connections at all, the only thing they can rely on is the technique of deception. In layman's terms, it's cheating! As long as you can fool customers and sell computers, you will make money. On the contrary, if the deception skills are not good enough and cannot fool customers, there will be no food. When it comes to cheating skills, Tang Xiaosheng originally thought it was a profound knowledge, but after contacting customers, he found that it is not difficult to cheat customers. Out of ten customers, there may be two or three who are familiar with computers. There is no way to fool these customers. but. Among the ten customers, at least five customers know nothing about computers. These customers are big fat fish. As long as they are a little more professional, they still have a good chance of making a small fortune. therefore. As long as you can study the tricks of cheating, it won't be a problem to make a living in the computer city. Tang Xiaosheng used to move bricks. He only dealt with bricks and was not good at deception. Therefore, in the first two weeks in Computer City, his performance was dismal. Not a single computer was sold, only two hard drives and a chassis were sold, making a total of 87 yuan. If this continues, he may not earn 200 yuan a month. Tang Xiaosheng did not expect that his coming would be so serious. In order to improve his performance. He began to intentionally observe how other salespeople made sales. Tang Xiaosheng was lucky. A few days later, he met an old salesman in the Computer City named Huo Xing. Huo Xing has been working as a salesperson in the Computer City for seven years and is very experienced. To put it simply, he has perfected his deception skills. People in Huoxing are very nice. After learning that Tang Xiaosheng was a novice, he took the initiative to teach Tang Xiaosheng some sales techniques, that is, techniques to deceive customers. These deception techniques are very practical, and Tang Xiaosheng benefited a lot. After learning the techniques of deceiving customers from Huo Xing for a while, Tang Xiaosheng finally achieved something. On December 24, 2010, Tang Xiaosheng attracted a customer to buy a computer. The customer was a fat man, about 20 years old, with a round face. Looks like a big-faced cat. This fat cat with a big face is relatively innocent. Tang Xiaosheng used Huo Xing¡¯s trick of deception and frightened the fat man in no time. In the end, Fatty spent 4,700 yuan to buy an assembled computer, and the cost of this computer was 3,900 yuan. The profit is 800 yuan. Tang Xiaosheng can get 50% of the profit, so after selling this computer, he made 400 yuan. Earning 400 yuan a day is already an astronomical figure for Tang Xiaosheng, who once moved bricks on a construction site. This should be something to be thankful for. It¡¯s just that Tang Xiaosheng couldn¡¯t be happy at the time, but felt particularly guilty. Because before the fat man left, he specifically left his computer number and said that he would treat Tang Xiaosheng to dinner in the future. When he saw the simple fat man leaving with a computer worth 4,700 yuan, Tang Xiaosheng felt a little panicked, just like a thief. Although he knew that this was a normal buying and selling transaction, and similar things happened every day in Computer City, he was still not used to it. How can I feel at ease after defrauding customers of their money? Regarding this issue, Tang Xiaosheng specifically asked the old salesman Huo Xing for advice. Huo Xing said that he was not used to it at first, but he got used to it after doing it for a long time. After listening to Huo Xing's words, Tang Xiaosheng immediately thought of Yue'er, because a few months ago, he and Yue'er had discussed issues related to habits. As Yue'er said, habits are sometimes scary things. When you get used to a behavior, this behavior will control your life. If you move bricks at a construction site for a long time, moving bricks will become a habit; if you fool customers in a computer mall for a long time, cheating will become a habit. People are a special species with extremely strong adaptability, and this ability can sometimes be quite scary. After hearing what Huo Xing said, Tang Xiaosheng became a little wary. He was a little worried that if he stayed in the computer city for a long time, he would gradually get used to deceiving customers, and even regard this method as the joy of life. Tang Xiaosheng knew that he might be able to earn more money, but he still didn't like being such a person. Fortunately, whenever he was bargaining with customers, Tang Xiaosheng could not help but think of Yue'er and her innocent, big eyes as pure as water. The more Tang Xiaosheng comes into contact with all kinds of people in the computer city, the more Tang Xiaosheng misses Yue'er. "It's a pity that this girl doesn't know where she is"?What, no news at all. Time flies by day by day, and in the blink of an eye, one year has passed, and it is already August 15, 2011. This day is Yue'er's birthday. As usual, Tang Xiaosheng went to work in the computer city and logged into Q-Q habitually. After going online, he specially sent a message to Yue'er: "Yue'er, happy birthday." After sending the message, Tang Xiaosheng started to work. He had not heard from Yue'er for a year, and he no longer had any interest in Yue'er's QQ. Too much hope. As a result, in the evening of that day, Tang Xiaosheng suddenly received a Q-Q message from Yue'er. "Hello, are you online?" A message came from Yue'er's QQ account. Tang Xiaosheng was stunned for a moment, a little dumbfounded. Without thinking much, he immediately replied: "You stinky girl, you finally got the idea. Where have you been this year? Why is there no news at all?" "You are Tang Xiaosheng, right? I'm sorry. , I am not Yue'er, not Yang Ziwen, I am a friend of Yang Ziwen," Yue'er's QQ reply. Tang Xiaosheng was startled and sent a message asking: "Isn't this Yue'er's QQ?" The other party replied: "This is Yue'er's QQ, but she asked me to keep this QQ for her." Tang Xiaosheng felt that something was wrong and asked Said: "Keep it? Why do you want to keep it?" The other party replied: "You don't know yet, Yue'er passed away last year"
