"Sir, you think so, but others don't think so." Jia Qiang stood on the side, her hands hanging down, her face full of distress, "I feel that I am a respectable person, if I am compared with my friends, partners or business rivals,
, everyone is sitting in private rooms, but I am sitting downstairs, so where can I put this face? Maybe people feel that you don’t have enough connections in Beijing and your strength is not enough, so maybe they won’t contact you for the next business...
"
I have to say that Jia Qiang's statement makes some sense. He has been hyping up this sales event for the past two months, and even asked Cao Yu to spare no effort to fan the flames in the "Daily News". In addition, those individuals
The tabloids with their own gossip nature were actively shouting, and the thoughts of everyone including business tycoons, dignitaries in Beijing, wealthy businessmen from other places, and local gentry and celebrities were aroused.
Especially the legendary stories about some of these rare antiques have attracted the attention of many people, who want to see if a certain object is as magical as imagined.
The ticket to the private room is only one hundred taels of silver, which is surprising to ordinary people, but to the dignitaries and wealthy businessmen, it is not worth mentioning. If you increase it to one thousand taels, to them
It's not worth mentioning. Of course, it's impossible for Daguan Tower to do this. That's too outrageous.
"Businessmen who think this way are low-level. Who doesn't know the basics of business? Do you think that just because you can show up at this sales conference and sit in a private room, you feel that you have deep connections and strong strength? Ridiculous!"
Feng Ziying retorted unceremoniously: "You may think that we, the Zhou merchants, are a little too vulgar."
Naturally, Jia Qiang did not dare to argue with Feng Ziying, but this time was indeed a rare opportunity for Daguan Tower.
In Jia Yun's view, the status of Daguan Tower in the theater has reached its extreme, and it is already difficult to seek breakthroughs.
After all, a confrontational pattern has been formed between several famous buildings in Beijing. It will be difficult for anyone who wants to overwhelm and knock down the other. Everyone has a big tree behind them.
Just like Uncle Feng and King Zhongshun's Mingyue Tower, they had already made a gentleman's agreement not to engage in vicious competition. Later, Yao Liang Pavilion also joined in.
Yanzilou has been unwilling to join, but it was targeted by these three companies, and then began to decline. It was not until last year that Yanzilou changed its owner and was bought by Beijing Wang. He took the initiative to express his goodwill to the three companies here and expressed his willingness to live in harmony. Jingzhong
The competition in the theater began to enter the relatively peaceful era of the four-nation struggle for hegemony.
However, due to the squeeze in the past two years, the strength of Yanzi Tower has weakened a lot. It has now fallen from the top position to the last of the four major theaters. It is already a certain distance away from the top three. There are still several theaters behind it.
In terms of strength and reputation, there is still a certain distance between Yanzilou and Yanzilou, but it has begun to catch up.
Jia Qiang is not a master who is willing to stick to his laurels. After taking over the management of Daguan Tower from Jia Yun, he was obsessed with making Daguan Tower even better. He used the changes in Daguan Tower to prove to Uncle Feng that although he
It was recommended by Jia Yun, but he is no less good than Jia Yun.
Jia Yun's sudden leap from the steward of Daguan Tower to the chief treasurer of Haitong Bank Jingshi is simply enviable. The gap between the two is really too big. One is the chief steward of the theater, while the other is in charge of the entire Gyeonggi Bank.
Jia Yun was a top shopkeeper in the industry, but Jia Yun just took up the post and has been doing a great job for more than a year. It was because of him that he fell into the eyes of Uncle Feng, and Uncle Feng gave him his full support, so he was able to secure his position.
this location.
Jia Yun can do it, why can't Jia Qiang do it?
He will use his performance in Daguanlou to prove that he can and even surpass Jia Yun!
How to prove it? Jia Qiang feels that this sales conference is a very rare opportunity for transformation.
Seeing that the price of this private room has soared five times and the demand is still in short supply. I even forced myself to come to Uncle Feng for help. This feeling of anxiety and joy is really difficult to describe to others.
Jia Qiang felt that a sales conference like this would definitely be investigated and dealt with by the imperial court in the future, and Daguan Tower could hold it. Even if the venue was provided to the government for free, the sale of private room tickets alone would be enough.
You can make a lot of money.
In Jia Qiang's view, Daguan Tower should not be limited to just acting. In the future, Daguan Tower can take a high-end route, and the theater troupes invited should be more high-end. Ordinary theater troupes are definitely not allowed to perform in Daguan Tower, even if the price is very low.
We must go all out to create this high-end impression.
In addition, we need to consider transformation. We can host more events such as sales and auctions that attract people's attention. Not only will the profits be huge, but it will also enhance the reputation of Daguan Tower. It will make everyone who enters the capital city want to
First come to the Daguan Tower to take a look and appreciate the most dazzling pearl in the capital city.
Jia Qiang even considered introducing storytelling into Daguan Tower.
This is a bit difficult, because in the minds of dignitaries and gentry, storytellers or lower-class people are just the fun of poor people from the middle and lower classes in teahouses. Entering Daguan Tower will definitely have an impact on the style and level of Daguan Tower.
But Jia Qiang felt that this kind of storytelling was very popular in the capital city. Some storytellers had won many regular guests in many teahouses, and their influence was growing. In fact, many gentry and dignitaries also liked this kind of storytelling.
This style is appreciated by both refined and popular people, but due to traditional inertia, no one is willing to break this pattern.
As long as she can win Uncle Feng's support, Jia Qiang feels that she can invite famous storytellers from the capital city or even Yangzhou and Suzhou to perform on stage, so that everyone can experience the level of top storytellers.
In addition, Jia Qiang even thought about whether, in addition to some government sales fairs, she could also take the initiative to undertake or organize some sales fairs, such as top jewelry stores or medicinal materials stores in Suzhou, and top products from silk and satin shops in Jingshi and Yangzhou.
, specially used for the top people in the capital city to taste and sell, which can also improve the style of Daguan Tower, and also win more Daguan Tower brand and revenue.
"Uncle, you said that our merchants in Dazhou are not so tacky, but how high-level of style can the merchants have?" Jia Qiang tactfully defended, "Besides, this kind of momentum has already been built, and it has been published in newspapers.
, and when the sales are going on, these newspapers and publications have to go to the scene to observe and look for topics. This is also a means of building momentum. Nowadays, to a large extent, everyone does not come here solely for these sales materials, but to
Fight for this breath, show your face, and don’t care about selling yourself."
"For example, the Longyou merchants and Dongting merchants have always been at odds with each other, and the Hui merchants and the Shanxi Chamber of Commerce are sworn enemies. The Yangzhou salt merchants look down on all other merchants, as well as merchants from Korea, Japan and Southeast Asia. Franji and
Hong Mao Fan businessmen, they all gather here, and this momentum of bidding and raising prices can be easily grasped..."
Jia Qiang did not say any more.
Feng Ziying laughed. He didn't expect that Jia Qiang's head melon seeds were very useful and exceeded his expectations. He actually drew inferences and came up with the idea of such an auction, but he had to say that the other party still had some knowledge.
"Brother Qiang, it seems that you have quite a plan. Let's talk about it." Of course Feng Ziying would not dampen the other party's enthusiasm.
For people like Jia Yun and Jia Qiang who have no background or background, they are naturally willing to follow people like themselves, and they are also happy to use them for their own purposes. The Jia family has long been in decline, and they are not the material to go to war. They stay in the capital.
, and with no one else to support him, he gave them such an opportunity, so naturally they could only follow him wholeheartedly.
"Sir, I'm thinking that it would be nice to have more sales of this kind, but the sales are bound to be limited, so how can we keep the reputation of Daguanlou? Since this kind of sales is so popular, why not
How many more times should we do it? Anyway, every year the court investigates some major cases, so can all the property involved in the inspection be handled in this way? Also, if the property involved in such major cases cannot be handled, can we ask
Famous jewelry stores in the capital city or Yangzhou city in Suzhou will choose some unique or very attractive objects for a tasting. After the tasting, they will auction them off. The highest bidder will win. They can also use newspapers to promote them.
.”
Feng Ziying was immediately impressed by Jia Lian. This guy had a very pioneering and innovative mind, and he could actually come up with this.
"Well, yes, this idea is very creative. There are many jewelry stores in Jiangnan, the capital, and everyone is competing fiercely. They all want to make a name for themselves. So Daguanlou can use this incident to make it work better. It might not be impossible to try this."
Feng Ziying nodded: "Is there anything else?"
"There are also many pawn shops in the capital city. Every year, there are many dead pawns left over. They have been accumulated over the years. There are also many strange and weird things. Maybe they are not valuable in the eyes of some people, but there are also some customers with special preferences.
I like it very much. If we can provide an occasion for them to display and identify, and then conduct a sale, this will be a welcome opportunity for everyone,..."
Feng Ziying was really shocked by Jia Qiang's ideas. If the previous ones were inspired by him, then this cooperation with the pawn shop was his own thought.
"Is there anything else?" Feng Ziying encouraged.
"Also, another thing is, my nephew is wondering if we can bring in some of the most famous storytellers to talk about stories. Maybe we can attract more guests..." Jia Qiang observed the changes in Feng Ziying's expression as she spoke.
, after all, this is a bit deviant, but is there still a lack of deviant things in Uncle Feng?
"Oh?" Feng Ziying nodded. Sure enough, she has a new idea. Jia Qiang is not bad at all. "Very good, this idea is very good. Have you considered how to operate it?"
