Zhou Chen stayed on the island for five days before coming back. The two couples he took there to take wedding photos were very satisfied. The staff in the store also got along well, and their efficiency began to gradually improve.
More than a month has passed, and Zhou Chen has spent a lot of money on advertising, which has slowly improved the business of the bridal shop. Although it has not yet turned a profit, it has begun to develop in a good direction.
Next, you just need to take it one step at a time and slowly build a reputation. If nothing goes wrong, profits will be made sooner or later.
After Zhou Chen came back, Yang Tao naturally lived with him again. Her rented house was about to expire and she was no longer prepared to rent it.
Although they are not married yet, they have actually slowly started living as a couple.
Go to work together, get off work together, eat together, sleep together...
Yang Tao had some concerns before, but after Zhou Chen bought her a ring, she had completely identified with Zhou Chen, and now all she needed was a marriage certificate.
Although Yang Tao didn't urge Zhou Chen to get married or buy a house, Zhou Chen knew it, so he had already begun preparations. The first thing was to settle on a house.
In order to open a bridal shop, he spent more than three million, bought a car and rented a house, and invested half of the money in the stock market. So he doesn't have much cash in his bank card now, and he still has to leave some for his employees.
Salaries are paid, so it is impossible to spend all the money on buying a house.
The house across from my mother-in-law's house is indeed nice, but the problem is that the house refuses to lower the price and wants to sell him off. Of course, he can't stick his head over and let the other party sell him off. Even if he doesn't want the house, he can't.
Spend hundreds of thousands more.
So he had already made two plans, and looked at other houses in that community. It was not necessary to have to go door to door, and go up and downstairs.
Zhou Chen sat on the second floor of the store and looked at the stocks. The stock of the entertainment company he bought had risen several yuan, half of it in more than two months, which can be said to be very good.
In addition to this stock, he also studied other stocks, especially the alcohol industry and medical care.
In fact, he is relatively familiar with liquor, but it is suitable for long-term holdings. It is difficult to predict the short-term returns, and it is difficult to control the ups and downs.
As for other stocks, he had read a lot, but he was not sure enough that he could not make money in a few months and a half, so he did not dare to buy them easily.
He has also looked at a lot of technology stocks, because technology is developing rapidly now, and technology stocks are very promising. However, he only has so much funds and is not 100% sure, so he is not willing to take out loans easily.
In the final analysis, it has something to do with his current situation. Now he has a small amount of capital. To put it nicely, he has no big ambitions. To put it worst, he lacks enterprising spirit.
Because he doesn't know how long he can stay here, and he really doesn't want to spend too much energy fighting in the business district.
If he can stay in this world for a long time, he will definitely find a way to study first, and then show off his talents when he has enough knowledge reserves.
But obviously, using the first world as a reference, he really wasn't sure how long he could stay in this world.
While I was watching the stock market, the screen on my phone suddenly changed, and then the ringtone rang.
"Hey, Brother Ran, what do you want from me? It's your birthday, okay, no problem, no problem, okay..."
Sure enough, I called him and told him that it was his birthday today and I wanted to invite him to Hu Qixing's pet photography shop for dinner and then go out to sing after dinner.
Guo Ran is Zhou Chen's best friend since he came to this world, so he naturally won't refuse Guo Ran's invitation.
When I walked downstairs, I saw Yang Tao sitting at the table writing and drawing on the laptop, so I walked over.
"Taozi, my friend really has his birthday today and asked me to come over for dinner. Will you go?"
Star Tao raised his head and answered without thinking: "I won't go. I'm still busy. You can go. I'll have a bite after get off work and wait for you at home."
Zhou Chen did not force it: "Okay, they plan to go singing after dinner. They will probably go back later and may have to drink. I won't drive the car. They will come and take me later."
"Okay, then I'll take you after it's over?"
"We'll see then. If it's too late, I'll take a taxi back. You wait for my call."
"oh."
Zhou Chen sat next to Yang Tao and watched Yang Tao work seriously.
Having worked in the wedding dress shop for more than a month, Yang Tao has been studying hard, not only in wedding dress design, but also in management, because Zhou Chen has told her seriously that when the wedding dress store is on track,
He will no longer care about it and will leave it to her when the time comes.
So for Yang Tao, time is very tight and she has too much to learn.
After Yang Tao finished working for a while, Zhou Chen suddenly remembered something: "By the way, Taozi, how is Jiao Yang's new job going?"
Jiao Yang encountered problems at work before and wanted Yang Tao to help him become a sales model, but Zhou Chen knew that the boss of Jiao Yang's company was a scumbag, so he asked Yang Tao to find an excuse to turn him down.
Later, Jiao Yang had no choice but to find someone else to be an advertising model. However, he later had a conflict with their boss and resigned in anger.
Star Tao: "I heard he said he was looking for it, but he probably hasn't found it yet. What's wrong?"
Zhou Chen said: "I think we should let him come to our place. The business in our store is still a bit monotonous. Taking wedding photos is okay, but wedding dresses are not easy to sell now. I think we can start a wedding business. You used to
I happen to have worked in a hotel, so I must be very familiar with hotel procedures, so I will have no problem getting started in this area.”
Yang Tao thought for a while and said: "I have no problem, but weddings are not that easy to organize. You can communicate with the hotel, but it is not easy to find a host. Wait, do you want Jiao Yang to be the leader?"
host?"
"Yes, you see Jiao Yang is very talkative and a planner. I think there is absolutely no problem in letting him be the host of the wedding."
Yang Tao's eyes lit up, "This is a reminder. Anyway, he hasn't found a job yet. Why don't I ask him to see if he has this intention."
"Well, just ask. If he doesn't want to, we won't force him."
Because today is Guo Ran's birthday, Guo Ran has the privilege to get off work early and arrive at Zhou Chen's store at around five o'clock.
After getting into Guoran's car, Zhou Chen asked: "Brother Ran, Taozi is busy, I'm the only one, besides you and me, Qixing and the others, is there anyone else?"
Sure enough, he said: "No, although I have many friends, not many can celebrate my birthday with me. In the past, there were only Qixing and his wife, but now you are included. I called your brother-in-law and he said
I don’t have time, and there’s nothing I can do.”
"I have already said hello to Qixing and the others. I will eat at their place later and then go to the KTV to have fun. Now let's go to the supermarket to buy some food and wine to take with us."
"Okay, no problem. By the way, I ordered a cake for you and it should be delivered to you soon."
"You kid, brother, I'll treat you to dinner, and you can buy me a cake, okay."
Hu Qixing's pet photography shop has two floors. They usually live there and cook and cook. There is no problem at all.
"Zhou Chen, Mr. Hong invited me to a party organized by their small photography circle last time. The scene was really what I dreamed of. It was like an exhibition. They were all photos of animals and plants.
, there are all kinds of human bodies, I was dazzled by them, and gained a lot of knowledge."
Sure enough, I had always thought that my photography skills were good, but after I went to work with Hung Baida and met the great masters in the industry, I realized how good I was. Compared with those great masters in the photography industry, he was really just a younger brother.
Because it was Hung Baida who introduced him, the photographers were all very polite to him, and he also knew how to do business. He made many friends and even made appointments with a few people to travel together next month.
