Chapter 206 The Beginning of the Department Store
On the phone with Liu Jianren, Wei Sheng came to the mall on the fifth floor.
Liu Jianren and Song Xiao just stood in the stairwell with a smile and waited for her, and when Wei Sheng came up, the former greeted her first, "The transfer procedure is all over, you just need to meet the managers of various departments and decide who will go. Keep."
The two of them were obviously very happy. Although Song Xiao didn't agree with getting involved in the real estate industry before there was a clear plan, Wei Sheng couldn't help but be ecstatic when he decided to take pictures of Beicheng Department Store.
After all, the operation of the entire company has been on the right track. Not to mention that the public opinion boom brought by the camera phone has greatly improved the brand awareness of Rebirth International, and it has also driven the sales of mobile phones. In terms of plastic factories, the price of plastic has recently risen to the original level. 60% of the market price, which means that the original stockpiling has now made a big profit.
At the same time, the first- and second-tier factories were merged, and the large-scale plastic production was quite profitable every day. According to the original price, the second-tier factory made a net profit of 300 yuan per ton of the lowest-grade black material. Stopped operation can produce 45 tons per day, which means that the daily profit of one machine is as high as more than 10,000 yuan. Now hundreds of machines are running at the same time, and the price of plastic has skyrocketed. What kind of huge profit is this?
Because of the correct decision of the factory, it has completely gained a firm foothold during this industry reshuffle. It is no exaggeration to say that the daily inflow and outflow of just one piece of plastic processing is millions of yuan, even if it encounters low prices and arrears , still can not stop the breeding of this huge wealth.
This is the market economy!
And Wei Sheng in front of him is still a simple down jacket and snow cotton boots. He won the Beicheng Department Store without showing any signs of being in the mountains, but who would know the whole thing facing south, what is hidden behind the scenes of this department store changing hands. A grand and ambitious blueprint? Song Xiao knew that this was just the beginning.
And he felt a spirit from Wei Sheng's practice from beginning to end, that is: making money is not the ultimate goal, but the achievements created in the process of making money are the ultimate goal.
Song Xiao is a crazy person in his bones, otherwise he would not quit his high-paying job at MOTT just to return to the motherland for an ideal. He has the ambition to change the world, so he entered the communication manufacturing industry, and Wei Sheng's Rebirth International, And the blueprint for the mixed-use city's commercial center seems to align to some extent with his ambitions.
On the way to the head office, Liu Jianren said, "It turned out that the deputy general manager of Beicheng Department Store was named Kang Baocheng. He voluntarily applied to stay in his original position, and the salary should be the same as before. In fact, their original boss has been in arrears with his salary, and the reason is that the store has been delayed. The rent is not paid, but the shopping mall needs these shops to maintain operation, and it has repeatedly tolerated, resulting in this Beicheng department store has now entered a vicious circle."
Wei Sheng looked at him sideways, "Is it because these shops are not paying their rent because they can't make ends meet?"
Song Xiao answered with a sneer and said, "Whatever can't make ends meet, no matter what, it's an old department store. Even if it's down, it's not as prosperous as before. In terms of daily traffic here, individual merchants are not short of money to make money, but they are in Wancheng. Formed a new business district and began to attract investment, Beicheng merchants began to take advantage of shopping malls, and at every turn they responded collectively to Wancheng’s investment promotion and moved to the new business district in Qiaonan to threaten Beicheng department stores to reduce rents. The department stores began to compromise, and in the end It has developed into what it is today. It can be said that Beicheng Department Store was not forced by the new Qiaonan business district, but by these greedy merchants."
Liu Jianren put his hands in his trouser pockets and smiled disdainfully, "And this is the first time I heard that a department store pays rent on a monthly basis. Originally, Beicheng Department Store signed a one-year contract, and the rent was paid every two months during the contract period. Renew the contract, if you are happy or not, you will be in arrears if you are not happy, and it will be strange if the company is not forced into pornography.”
Wei Sheng nodded when he heard the words, "Chaonan City has two major districts, Qiaonan and Qiaobei, which can fully support two independent business circles. The situation where the circle is completely run out of the game. In this way, the original department store heads of departments who are willing to stay will stay. We now lack experienced personnel. As for the shops... Ordered to pay rent, deducted the same amount of goods in arrears, Take a tougher attitude, and don't keep anyone who doesn't pay arrears."
"Don't leave one?" Liu Jianren and Song Xiao stopped together and looked at Wei Sheng in disbelief.
Entering the main office, Wei Sheng met Kang Baocheng, the former deputy general manager of the department store, and the principals of various departments.
This group of people was obviously a little nervous. Before Wei Sheng entered the door, they were gathering together to discuss what the new boss would be like. When they saw a little girl about fifteen or sixteen years old entering the door, they were all a little surprised.
Kang Baocheng stepped forward with a teapot and said with a smile, "Little girl, who are you looking for?" When they saw Liu Jianren and Song Xiaoshi who came in behind the little girl, they were startled, "President Liu, President Song?"
Wei Sheng is also looking at Kang Baocheng at the moment. This man is about forty years old, and he doesn't have any special features. He has a haircut of four or six minutes, a pair of black-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose, a thick nose and a height of 1.7 meters. The shape is sturdy and looks a bit simple and honest.
"This is our chairman Wei. Chairman, this is Kang Baocheng, the former deputy general manager of Beicheng Department Store." Song Xiao introduced each other respectfully.
The others, including Kang Baocheng, were stunned and looked at Wei Sheng in disbelief. It was hard to imagine that Song Xiao had just introduced the girl who looked only fifteen or sixteen years old as...the chairman of the board. ?
Kang Baocheng's brows furrowed deeply, his thoughts were more complicated. Even he can't tell the difference, what he is thinking at this moment is that the other party is joking? Or if it is true, then the prospect of Beicheng Department Store is worrisome.
Anyway, Wei Sheng entered the door in a grand manner, then walked to the aluminum desk that had faded under the old-fashioned window and sat down. A group of former heads of various departments of the department store were sitting or standing opposite.
Wei Sheng saw everyone's expressions in his eyes, and smiled calmly, "Just now I was talking to President Liu and President Song about the arrears of our department stores. Since everyone is here, I just happened to listen together. I'm a newcomer, and I don't have much experience, so you can point out any mistakes on the spot."
Kang Baocheng and the others looked at each other. First of all, this little girl's calm demeanor, which was different from her peers, made them look up at her, so they wanted to hear what she could say.
Wei Sheng used to work in a department store for summer in his previous life in the third and freshman years of high school. Although he could not directly spy on its operation model, he recently discussed this issue with Cyril, and he has some ideas of his own.
