Chapter 1589 The most gratifying thing
Whether it is Li Mu's parents or Zhao Ziqiu's parents, they all feel that Li Mu is extremely proud to receive the gbe awarded by the Queen of England, but in Li Mu's eyes, this is only part of his transaction with the royal family. Willing to use her special advantages to pave the way for Prince William's future, the Queen of England will definitely not take out the highest medal at the bottom of the box.
In such a special transaction, he takes his own resources as currency, and the royal family takes their privileges as value. What Li Mu really wants is not a medal, but what the royal family can bring to him at a political level in the future. s help.
When Zhao Xianliang heard that Li Mu wanted to help Prince William pave the way, he even made a suggestion and said: "Xiao Mu, Prince William, as the crown prince, will definitely have a lot of contact with Huaxia in the future, and it will be a matter of time before he officially debuts on the political stage, since this is the case. , it is better to let him assume the role of the spokesperson of the national image in advance, in this case, the royal family will be more grateful to you."
Li Mu asked curiously, "Uncle Zhao, which aspect are you referring to?"
Zhao Xianliang said: "My suggestion is that you might as well invite William to Huaxia as a private person for an inspection visit, but this 'investigation visit' has nothing to do with our Huaxia government, it is entirely your personal behavior, and your personal invitation He came to Huaxia as a guest and visited his own companies, such as your Muye Technology, Taobao.com, Alipay and Taobao Logistics, as well as 3321. As long as he came, even if it was a private meeting for a private meeting, the media would definitely conduct him. With a large-scale report, William's name in the country will be greatly improved, and he can even show his diplomatic potential to the British Parliament. Maybe next time there is a national event, he can come forward as a representative. "
Li Mu's eyes suddenly lit up. What Zhao Xianliang said was indeed a solution. If it was done in this way, it would definitely have a great impact on William's popularity and support rate, and it would also deepen Europe's impression and goodwill towards China and China's enterprises. It can be said to be a multi-tasker.
So Li Mu hurriedly said: "Uncle Zhao, thank you for your reminder, I'll go back and arrange this matter."
After Li Mu finished reporting his work to the four elders, he curiously inquired about his mother's recent business progress.
Li Ma, like a family, introduced all the clothing brands that have won the agency rights one by one, and then said to Li Mu: "We have now opened 45 directly-operated stores in the province."
Li Mu asked in surprise, "So many homes?"
"yes.
Li Ma said with a smile: "The speed of opening a store is very fast. First, do a general market research. If it is worth doing, we will choose a site immediately. Then we will build a store. The speed of building a store is very fast. From construction to acceptance, a store can be It only takes more than two months, and it can be opened in three months before and after, and the investment is not large. The money you gave us last time, except for the decoration of the department store, the rest are basically direct-sale channels. , and then we put the store in the bank as collateral, and the bank gave us many preferential policies, basically ultra-low interest loans. "
Li Mu sighed, "It's so hard to build so many houses in a short period of time."
Dad Li smiled and said: "What a hard job, it's like playing, drive over there to see, if you think it's good, arrange someone to talk with the landlord, sign an agreement, and the cooperative decoration company will directly send the project manager and surveying and mapping personnel to the scene, a few days. After that, the design drawings came out, and then they went to a few supervisors, and then they found some more local workers, and it was quickly established."
"But you can't manage so many stores..." Li Mu really didn't expect that his parents were becoming more and more addicted to their careers, unable to extricate themselves. Directly-operated stores, more than 40 stores, this scale is already a bit scary.
Li Ma smiled slightly and said, "I basically don't care about the things in the store. All of the more than 40 stores have gone out, and each store has a store manager. This store manager was dispatched by us after our personal training, and then your aunt. Auntie, uncle and aunt, as well as your little aunt, your uncle and aunt, basically everyone is responsible for one to several storefronts. They are responsible for supervising the store manager, following up the operation data, and ensuring the normal operation of the storefront. As for the inventory And sales are all recorded in the computer system. How many pieces, how much money, and how much inventory each store sells every day is clear in the system. It is enough to send a few professional financial personnel to check it regularly. So far, nothing has gone wrong."
Li Mu couldn't help but ask, "How is the profitability?"
"It's good." Li Ma said, "It seems that the purchasing power of ordinary people has gone up recently. Basically, the sales of all stores are growing steadily, and the monthly net profit of most stores is between 50,000 and 100,000. In the larger cities, around 100,000 yuan, these profits are basically 80% to the company and 20% to the person in charge of the store, all of their relatives.”
Xie Yun couldn't help reminding at this time: "Sister Yunfang, although it is quite common to use relatives in business, there are still very few people like you who basically use their own relatives. The more such a family business, the worse it is. Management, the more you must prevent the rat warehouse, otherwise, once the atmosphere is broken, it will be too difficult to break it back."
Li Ma nodded in agreement and said, "My dad and I have also considered this, so let's talk about the ugly first, whoever has the behavior of the mouse warehouse will take back a certain number of storefronts in his hands and cut them directly. For a part of his income, he directly takes back all the stores and stops cooperation, and we have a professional verification and audit team. With them, the financial situation of each store is clear at a glance. The supervision is strict and the punishment measures are strict. Don't dare to think too much."
Xie Yun gave a thumbs-up and sighed, "Sister Yunfang still has a way, giving both kindness and power, and clear rewards and punishments. These are the two most critical criteria for maintaining a family business."
Li Ma said a little embarrassedly: "Sister, don't praise me, I'm just a little bit of trouble in front of you."
Xie Yun smiled and said: "How come, don't look at Lao Zhao's business is quite big, but he can't handle the relationship between relatives participating in the company's operations. Before, he had a few relatives to work with him, and then he basically The reason was that they had too much trust from the very beginning, coupled with the palliative strategy adopted because of their affection, in the end, others did not know how to restrain themselves, but they became more aggressive, and finally tore their faces, and even relatives were not allowed to do it. ."
Li Ma nodded and said, "We were worried about this at first, but then my dad and I also thought about it carefully. My son has a bright future. Speaking of which, we can retire and enjoy life, but our relatives have to take care of them after all. Well, we can't live well in our family, and we don't care about other people's homes, but you say, let's take care of it, and we can't use all of it. As the saying goes, it is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
Zhao Xianliang said with a smile: "My sister-in-law is right. You can't leave your relatives alone, but you can't just rely on money to support them. The best way is to bring them along so that they have a better development prospect."
Li Ma said: "That's what we both thought, so we took some money from our son to run this business, which can be regarded as a buffer between the son and these relatives. Otherwise, if the relatives want to If you get involved in your son's career, it will be difficult for your son to ride a tiger. He is doing big things, and relatives cannot be allowed to interfere with him."
Li Mu was shocked when he heard this.
He didn't even think about it himself, that his mother was thinking about herself with all her strength to start a business.
No wonder, no wonder no one of my relatives has ever found me directly and said to let me solve some problems, but it turned out to be cut off by my mother.
She has planned a part of the property for all the immediate family members, so that these relatives have a very stable and objective income, and also have a decent career, saving the seven aunts, eight aunts, and various cousins thinking The possibility of getting together in your own company.
Xie Yun's eyes at Li Ma suddenly increased with a bit of sincere admiration. Although she did not mean to look down on Li Ma, she never imagined Li Ma as a very wise woman, but she discovered today that Li Ma not only Very wise and very wise.
In contrast, she never thought of using such a method as a buffer for her husband back then. When her husband's relatives flocked to her, she and her husband thought as much as possible, to arrange and let them as much as possible. However, once they enter their own company, no matter what position they are in, they will evolve into a mouse warehouse. If they had this wisdom back then, they would just invest a little money to build a "relative firewall" for their husbands on the periphery, then the husband is now Relations with relatives at home are not as stiff as they are now.
Moreover, Li Ma's management attitude towards relatives is also something that she admires very much.
Most people can't be objective enough in front of relatives, and they will always be fettered by family affection, which affects their judgment on business affairs. Basically, everyone feels the same.
If you are too hard on your relatives, you will get a hard-hearted infamy; if you are too soft on your relatives, you will often bring huge losses and negative effects on yourself, and even affect your family.
Therefore, the more this is the case, the more it is necessary to use a set of effective methods to arrange the relatives perfectly, neither soft nor hard, and effective.
Li Mu was very relieved to see the strong woman's temperament revealed unconsciously in his mother.
In my previous life, when my mother was at this age, she was overwhelmed by the economic pressure brought about by her husband and wife being laid off and her son studying. She quickly grew old and became a middle-aged woman who judged trivial matters every day. At that time, Li Mu was the oldest. My impression is that every time I go home from vacation, my mother looks older and more haggard than before. People in their forties look no different from people in their fifties.
In this life, my mother exudes confidence and calmness that she has never had before. Not only does she not look old at all, but she looks younger in temperament. More importantly, she has found a career she likes and has made He has achieved a very remarkable achievement. The contrast between the two worlds is so great that there is a difference between clouds and mud.
This is the most gratifying thing that Li Mu has been reborn so far. Chapter 1589 The most gratifying thing
