"Aren, what are your plans for this year? I heard that you have been making a lot of moves recently?" Ding Wenhao and Li Jianren sat down separately and started chatting.
"This year is considered a critical year. I will initially set up locations in various cities in southern Jiangsu, and then depending on opportunities, I may roll it out across the province.
As for where it will develop, it depends on various opportunities. Manpower, material resources, funds, etc. are all indispensable. Therefore, we only have a general goal." Li Jianren reported to Ding Wenhao truthfully.
"I heard that you have already started taking action in Gusu City, and you may invest tens of millions?" Ding Wenhao tried to test something.
"Well, yes, I went to do some inspections a year ago. The medium-sized supermarkets are all good, and most of them have found stores. However, there are not many places that meet the conditions for large supermarkets, so you still need to get the land and build it yourself. So investment is possible
A little more, probably more than 30 million." Li Jianren didn't know why, but he took the initiative to inform Ding Wenhao.
"Let me tell you something. You don't have to tell anyone outside for the time being. I will be transferred at work next month. If nothing else, I will go to Liangxi City." Ding Wenhao said softly.
"Oh? Secretary of the Liangxi Municipal Party Committee? Member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee?" Li Jianren was a little surprised. He had heard rumors before that Ding Wenhao might be transferred, but he did not expect that it would be so soon, and that he would be going to Liangxi City.
The municipal party committee secretaries of Liangxi City are usually members of the Standing Committee of the provincial party committee. Although they are not ranked high in the province, they are still provincial leaders.
"Well, member of the Standing Committee of the Provincial Party Committee." Ding Wenhao answered affirmatively, indicating that the matter has been finalized.
"I also plan to arrange for people to inspect the Liangxi market after the year and prepare to enter. In this case, do I still need to avoid suspicion?" Li Jianren asked.
"No need. I even hope that you can increase investment in the future. Of course, I will not lack the necessary policies, but I will not provide you with additional conveniences. You must be aware of this." Ding Wenhao reminded.
Li Jianren.
"Don't worry about this. As a supermarket, we actually don't have much dealings with the government. The main targets of our transactions are ordinary people, and you know this. All we ask is that the government can protect the legitimate rights of investors and provide a fair
A fair investment environment." Li Jianren also told Ding Wenhao frankly.
"Don't worry, I will make arrangements when you really plan to invest. Without a good investment environment, how can we attract more investors? I know this well." Ding Wenhao did not hesitate.
If you take care of one or two things within a certain range from time to time, I believe you can still do it.
Li Jianren was thoughtful, and then the two communicated for a long time. It was not until lunch that the old lady called him over.
In the afternoon, Li Jianren did not continue to disturb him, but chose to return to Luohe County. In the past few days, as the secretary of the municipal party committee, many people would definitely come to visit. Being able to give him a morning was considered extra care, and he could not return the favor.
sensible.
Back in Luohe County, Li Jianren went directly to the office. The year-end promotion data had come out and he needed to review it. In addition, he had to consolidate the funding situation and start the layout in Suzhou City immediately. The early funding issues should be dealt with first.
It has to be handled well.
Sitting on the office chair, Li Jianren picked up the report on the desktop. Zhang Jiaqiang had already sorted out all the data and placed it on his desk.
After nearly a month of year-end sales, the total turnover of two flagship stores and more than 30 branches in Yiyang City was more than 56 million yuan. After deducting various expenses, the net profit reached 18.2 million yuan.
.This is because many branches in the other four counties have not yet had time to open.
Li Jianren couldn't help but sigh, monopoly business is still easier to do. Without competitors, the profit margin will be different.
It seems that we still need to hurry up and make profits during this period. When competitors appear, it will be impossible to have such high profits. Maybe there will be a price war by then. Loss will not happen, but once the war starts, it will be difficult in the early stage.
It's unrealistic to make as much profit as you want.
He was still worried about funding problems before, but now that he sees such a large cash flow, Li Jianren is relieved and does not need to worry about funding issues for the time being. The next step is to wait for Gao Cheng to integrate the personnel and arrange follow-up matters at the same time, so that he can
Free him and let him go out and have a try.
However, it is estimated that it will take at least two months. This kind of thing cannot be done immediately, and chaos cannot occur. After all, Jianhui's foundation is not stable, and it needs to be done with more certainty.
When he officially goes to work tomorrow, Li Jianren plans to call Wu Chengcai over to talk about it and see if there is anything else worth discussing.
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Jianhui began to arrange vacations, and staff who had been working overtime also began to arrange vacations.
Of course, they will not lose a cent of their overtime bonus, and employees are relieved about this. At least so far, everything the company promised has been fulfilled.
Li Jianren was working in the office at this time, and it was Wu Cheng who knocked on the door and came in. Ah Ren pointed to the sofa and asked him to sit down first and wait for a while until he finished processing the documents in his hand.
Ten minutes later, Li Jianren finally finished the work at hand, stood up and stretched.
Then he said hello to Wu Chengcai, "Mr. Wu, I specially give you leave during this period, so that you can spend time with your wife and children at home. How about you, feel comfortable now, but don't get lazy!"
Wu Chengcai has always been traveling around, and it is difficult for his family to take care of him. Therefore, Li Jianren specifically asked him to put down his work, and did not arrange for him to work overtime. Instead, he asked him to go home and rest more so that he could cope with more tasks this year.
"Boss, don't tell me, I'm such a mean person. I used to be busy every day and was as tired as a grandson. Now I suddenly stop and I feel very uncomfortable. When I wake up in the morning and have nothing to do, I feel like I'm missing something.
What does it look like, do you think it's cheap?" Wu Chengcai smiled and looked after him.
"Haha, it seems that we are all the same. My best friend secretly calls me a bitch, and you are also a bitch. We are together." Li Jianren laughed.
The two sat down separately, and Li Jianren began to ask Wu Chengcai about his current development in Jinling.
"I have been in Jinling for more than two months. The location selection work for medium-sized branches has been completed, and Mr. Yin cooperated to win them all.
For large flagship stores, except for Yulon Building, where I found another store, the others are either not large enough or the location is not good enough. The situation is similar to what you see in Suzhou." Wu Chengcaihui reported.
"So should we also consider acquiring land to build our own?" Li Jianren asked doubtfully.
"Yes, I have communicated with Mr. Yin on this point. I still feel that if it is not feasible, we can build it ourselves. We don't have to worry too much about the land where we need it. The city government is also eager for us to build it ourselves and increase GDP. And we
To build a supermarket, the area required is not too large, and all aspects involved are not too complicated." Wu Chengcai explained.
"Hey, it seems that this is the only way. Let other branches open first, build a reputation, seize the market, and create profits as soon as possible. In this way, you don't need to invest subsequent funds here." Li Jianren directly made the decision.
Order.
"Boss, you still remember Yan Yan, the divorced mother of a daughter who was recruited last time. This woman is not simple, she is very capable. I even underestimated her before.
Not only is she able to endure hardships, but she is also very methodical in doing things. To be honest, it is a bit humiliating for her to be only a store manager. If she has time, the boss will check it out and see if it can be used where it is more needed."
Wu Chengcai seems to admire this woman Yan Yan a little, otherwise Wu Chengcai's character would not open his mouth casually. Just like Gao Cheng, if he is not a real talent, he will not mention Li Jianren. He knows Li Jianren's
The requirements are actually quite high.
"Oh? Really? I'll go take a look when I get the chance. If she's really as strong as you say, I don't recommend giving her more room to perform. What I lack now is talent." Li Jianren secretly remembered it in his heart and planned to
Find an opportunity to learn more about it.
"Mr. Wu, after you return to Jinling, please convey my wishes to Mr. Yin and start implementing them as soon as possible. This is one thing." Li Jianren began to explain various matters.
"Second, I plan to release Gaocheng in two months, or at most three months, in two directions, one may be Liangxi City, and the other may be the Demon City. Especially the Demon City, there is always a need to fight over there.
I heard that Hualien Supermarket is doing a good job there. We can’t give them too much time anymore, we need to go over and grab a piece of cake.”
"Third, after you go back this time, help me open a few more accounts with the securities company. I may need them later. Just these three things, do you think there is anything else that needs to be added?"
"I think it's a bit risky to ask Gao Cheng to go to the Magic City. After all, he has never actually operated the market development work. It was all done under my leadership before. I don't know if he can carve out a space if he goes alone.
." Wu Chengcai was a little worried.
"No need to worry, I have inspected Gaocheng many times and there is no problem. When the time comes, I will equip him with elite soldiers and generals and give him the greatest financial support.
I don't believe that he has no foothold. Maybe he can give us a surprise." Li Jianren disagreed. He was not too worried about Hualien Supermarket.
