The rich man and the poor man

Ink.

Pei Zhen couldn't speak for a moment, he just stretched out his hand, and slowly embraced Han Fu's neck.

"..." Han Fu hastily supported himself with his hands, but in the end he couldn't stabilize himself. The weight of his whole body fell on Pei Zhen's body, and he was hugged and fell down on the soft bed together.

Feeling the solid weight on his body, Pei Zhen gently rubbed the little fluff on the little wolf dog's hair.

"You did a great job."

Han Fu smiled complacently in his ear, but the raised smile was full of sleepiness.Pei Zhen's nose was a little sore, and his voice was a little hoarse.

Keep patting and stroking, really, well done.

It's really good, it's amazing.

"Hmm~~~" Han Fu buried his head in his neck, there was such a moment of silence, as if he had passed out completely in those few seconds.

After a while, he rubbed his eyes and woke up again: "Woo... But, there is still a little difference."

"I have tried to change every ingredient, but the final taste is always slightly different from Ink. I have been searching for the morning, but I can't find out where the difference is."

"Zhenzhen, I can't find it, can you help me find it?"

Pei Zhen took his hand and got up.Back at the mixing table, try to smell Han Fu's plant materials and essential oils from last night one by one.

In an instant, I figured out what was going on. Looking at the little wolf dog who had been up all night mentally, my heart ached again, and at the same time I felt a little funny.

"it's not your fault."

"It's impossible to do exactly the same, because our solvents are not as good as Lesétoiles."

Han Fu didn't understand.

Pei Zhen: "Essences and fragrances are mostly insoluble in water, so the solvents used to make perfumes are often anhydrous alcohols that have been de-aldehyded and deodorized. But in fact, there are many types of anhydrous alcohols. Good grades should be made from white grapes from well-known manors in good years."

""For example, the Ink of Lesétoiles uses the alcohol made from Canadian white ice wine grapes directly supplied by Lanrui. "

"And the alcohol on our table is all brewed from grain in the factory. To be precise, it is processed corn alcohol. Although it doesn't seem to have any smell at first, after mixing with a large amount of solvent essential oil, it will still There's a slight gap, and that gap, is the difference you've been looking for all night."

"So that's how it is." Han Fu heaved a sigh of relief, suddenly relieved.

He was no longer wronged, but Pei Zhen became wronged for him.

As a funder, how can you say that you want to cultivate the stars of tomorrow, but you can't even give him the highest quality raw materials and the highest grade competition equipment? !

……

In fact, in the previous PerfumerAwards competitions, the competition group will provide a large number of uniformly regulated, high-quality spices and essential oils, plus all the glassware and props needed for fragrance mixing, for the contestants to choose.

But at the same time, players are also allowed to bring their own ingredients and utensils.

Many players with good financial conditions will choose to bring some props and essential oils with them.

Like Liszt, when he joined PA for the first time, he brought a very expensive custom-made limited edition small suitcase, which contained a full set of expensive star-colored glass beakers and test tubes specially made for him by the Murano head office in Venice.

In terms of essential oils, I even carried a small box of the basic type. The orchid rutabaga carefully selected by Cranberry directly supplies Damask rose essential oil. The small bottle is only 12ml, and the price of a single bottle is over [-].

Although, the quality of raw materials and utensils does not play a decisive role in the process of flavoring.

But using cooking as an analogy, good Matsusaka fat beef compared to ordinary beef, sharp special ceramic knives vs ordinary knives will also benefit senior chefs in terms of efficiency and taste of dishes.

At least, if you want to perfectly reproduce "Ink", using corn alcohol produced by a small manufacturer as the base is difficult.

"Otherwise, I... will ask Lan Rui."

Pei Zhen picked up the phone, quite awe-inspiring to die generously.

After all, it is expected that there is a high probability that they will be returned directly - Lan Rui is a big supplier of Niu X, and the customer service has always been cold and arrogant. I think his Pei was also a well-known new brand in China back then. After all the twists and turns, I hit a wall several times.

How could such a company easily agree to supply in small batches just because a certain player wants to participate in PA?

But no matter what, if you want to give Han Fu the best, you have to try your luck.

Han Fu: "Zhenzhen, it's okay, I won't pick on these!"

"Many fragrance books have written that there is no need to be overly superstitious about raw materials-a skilled chef can recreate the taste of freshly picked and sent in compressed cans; and a bad chef can also give him the best foie gras truffles It makes sense to make dark dishes for you, and to spice it up!"

"But there are still some differences." Pei Zhen nodded, and still dialed the number.

Orchid Rue, which monopolizes the international high-end essential oil market, is really arrogant and arrogant in sales and customer service.

Pei Zhen explained the uses sincerely, and also analyzed the benefits of using orchid rutabaga essential oil for brand promotion and so on.As a result, he was unsurprisingly ridiculed by the opposite party.

"Please, I've already said it just now, our company never does odd orders of less than 200 million yuan! There is no need for any competition promotion. The world-renowned perfume manufacturers are all our customers. This is our best propaganda."

"Fuck!" What Han Fu couldn't listen to the most was the kind of sly, yin and yang tone, and he directly grabbed the phone.

"Who ordered it?"

The other party: "What?"

"I said, who stipulated that your company's orders below 200 million will not be made? Which president or which vice president? You take the company's articles of association and read it to me? What is your job number? Customers are serious, and if you have the time to gossip, the products have already been packaged and sent, right?"

The other party obviously couldn't talk to him, cursed "crazy", and hung up directly.

"Damn! How dare you hang up on me..."

"Don't be angry, don't be angry," Pei Zhen patted him on the sidelines, "Lan Rui has always been like this. Their starting sales volume is indeed high, and they specialize in international big brands, so they don't have time for small businesses. Don't talk about buying them alone. In the two years since I started as an independent brand, because the order was not large enough, I went to the Yunnan headquarters twice to interview Mr. Han himself before I finally got the goods..."

"..."

"It's just, it's a pity... the essential oil of orchid rutabaga is the best after all. Forget it, I'll think of another way."

Han Fu: "Think of other ways! It's just that their way of doing business is so arrogant and arrogant, ignoring ordinary customers! It must be rectified!"

Pei Zhen laughed dumbfoundedly and shook his head.Young man, he is really angry.

In the past, Han Xiaohua coaxed him, and occasionally the roles were reversed, which was quite interesting.

The little wolf dog was furious after being groomed by him, and finally ran to the garden to get some air.

Pei Zhen sighed, and turned to feed his fat orange cat.

……

After slowly feeding Xiaoju, enjoying the master's coquetry and cuteness for a while, after shoveling the cat litter, the phone rang again.

Pei Zhen didn't know what happened in this short period of time.

As soon as he picked it up, it was still Lan Rui's customer service, but his attitude turned 180 degrees.

"I'm sorry, I'm really sorry. I didn't check just now. Aren't you Mr. Pei, our old customer of Lan Rui?"

Pei Zhen: "..."

He has ordered some goods from Lanrui for two or three years, so in a sense, he is really an "old customer"?

"Old customer Mr. Pei, there is no problem with samples and so on! Guaranteed to deliver to you, guaranteed to be delivered to you, and will be delivered immediately. Shun X will send it to you from the Yunnan headquarters for free with guaranteed price."

Pei Zhen is more honest: "...I don't want samples. I don't intend to place a bulk order, but I just want to buy individual items in small quantities."

"Single product? Single product... Cough, it's okay! Mr. Pei, Mr. Pei, I will be your dedicated line service from now on. I will send you a private number by text message later. If you want any essential oils, please leave me a message at any time. Maliuer sent it to you! Really, I personally accept the criticism sincerely, and I dare not neglect my work any more, and I would like to ask you... for complaints or something, can you cancel it for me?"

Pei Zhen: "I never complained to you."

"Ugh... Well, then, Mr. Pei, if your relatives and friends know some big leaders in the company, please give us some kind words? Also, please do your best for the competition. If you are on the live broadcast, be sure to give us more brand names. Do implants!"

Pei Zhen: "Uh..."

After hanging up the phone, the little wolf dog also came back from the backyard.

Pei Zhen: "Did you call Lan Rui's complaint number?"

Han Fu: "Uh...um!"

Pei Zhen: "..."

Lan Rui handled the problem really quickly this time.

Pei Zhenyao remembered that he was sent the wrong product once back then, and the complaint phone was a difficult call, and he dragged on for more than half a year and finally failed to resolve it.

Could it be that the company has rectified in the past two years?

"Zhenzhen, what are you thinking?"

"No, it's just... I didn't expect Lan Rui's after-sales service to be quite reliable now." Although, it was a bit inexplicable from the beginning to the end, but it was still a big deal?

Han Fu: "..." As long as you are satisfied.
