Chapter 838 The First Large Supermarket Shocked Yanjing!
This ParknShop supermarket is really big.
It took Yang Ming more than two hours to complete a simple tour.
If he went around like normal, he might not be able to finish the tour in a day.
After Yang Ming finished the tour.
Came to the meeting room.
At this time, in addition to Yang Ming, there were also Zhou Kaixuan and the current management of ParknShop supermarket.
"Everyone, I have just visited this large supermarket. This is the first large supermarket in the country, even in Yanjing. However, here I want to remind you in advance, which are also the most important points."
"First, safety."
Safety is the most important.
First, this supermarket is very large, especially now that it is the first large supermarket in Yanjing, which means that after it opens for business, there will be many customers coming to buy or even visit.
Then when there are many people, safety problems are prone to occur.
One of them is the possible stampede problem.
When the Lan Kwai Fong Group was established, Yang Ming paid the most attention to safety issues, including preventing stampede accidents.
Just now, Yang Ming noticed that this large supermarket has a total of eight doors in and out. In fact, this is much safer than two doors.
Security inspections may be much more troublesome.
Second, there is the issue of fire safety.
There are all kinds of goods sold inside, including some that may be easy to burn.
There are also lighters, even matches, candles, alcohol, kerosene, etc. If someone sets a fire, the problem will be more serious.
Yang Ming knows that fires may exist at any time.
In addition to these two safety hazards.
There are other safety issues that need special attention.
"Second, prepare sufficient goods. Also, there must be no problems with the goods in the warehouse."
With a population of nearly 10 million in Yanjing now, even if only 10% of the population comes here to buy goods, there will be 1 million.
This is a very scary number.
Yang Ming estimates that there may be more customers.
Especially when it just opens for business, there will be more citizens participating in the purchase of goods, perhaps two or three million people.
This means that even if it is open 24 hours a day, it may not be able to satisfy so many customers.
. . .
Yang Ming raised these issues at the meeting, which are all top priorities.
The most important thing is that there must be no problems.
Otherwise, it will inevitably affect the Empire Group, including further investment in supermarkets like these in Yanjing.
Yang Ming had a brief meeting with them, and he did not stay any longer.
For these things, he did not need to give instructions, and there were relevant people to take charge.
Yang Ming and others took a car to leave here.
Back to the Oriental Mandarin Hotel.
. . .
That afternoon.
Many people in Yanjing heard that the first large supermarket in Yanjing, and even in the country, would officially open tomorrow.
It is said that the total area is nearly 60,000 to 70,000 square meters, with countless shelves.
What is the concept?
This is two or three hundred times the current small supermarket in Yanjing.
It is unknown how many times those state-owned stores.
The most important thing is that it is said that there are all kinds of products in it.
As long as you can think of it, there is everything.
In addition, you don’t need to prepare any bills, just bring your own money and you can go to buy it.
For the citizens of Yanjing, it is really shocking that the Empire Group invested in such a large supermarket in Yanjing.
It is even said that the value of the products prepared there is nearly 100 million Hong Kong dollars.
In addition to some products provided by domestic companies, some are from overseas.
That night.
When Yang Ming went to see the old man, on the way, Mr. Shen asked: "Mr. Yang, I heard that your company's first large supermarket invested in Yanjing will open tomorrow?"
"Mr. Shen, I visited it today. It is larger than the large supermarkets in Hong Kong."
"In that case, I will go to see it with my family tomorrow."
The two came to the old man's office.
When Yang Ming went in, the old man also mentioned the supermarket to Yang Ming.
In the old man's view, Yang Ming's proposal of the Eight Kings incident last year was of great significance. Yang Ming not only saved the economy of Wencheng, but also saved the domestic private enterprises and private enterprise economy.
Even, it made him propose to open more coastal cities earlier.
In this matter, in the old man's view, Mr. Yang has no selfish motives.
Today, the first large supermarket invested by Yang Ming's Empire Group in Yanjing has played a good leading role in the old man's view.
The old man also knew that the competitiveness and service attitude of supply and marketing cooperatives and even state-owned stores were really backward. Now that the Empire Group, a private large supermarket, has appeared, it will definitely change the situation of these supply and marketing cooperatives and state-owned stores.
"Mr. Yang, do you think that state-owned stores have no way to develop?"
"Old man, that's not the case. State-owned companies must make changes, especially in terms of service attitude. In Europe, America, and even Japan, many people go to stores to buy goods, and the most important thing is service. There is a saying that customers are God, and all aspects of the country will gradually realize it."
Yang Ming knew that by then, not only a large number of domestic private large supermarkets would appear, but even some domestic state-owned stores would develop in this direction, and many chain supermarkets would also appear. Of course, in terms of service attitude, they are still not as good as foreign-funded or even private supermarkets.
Changes must be made. If they don't change, they will inevitably die.
Yang Ming finished chatting with the old man.
It was already late at night.
Yang Ming took the bus back.
Rest for a night.
Early the next morning.
Yang Ming hadn't gotten up yet.
At this time, outside the ParknShop supermarket, the first large supermarket in Yanjing.
Many people had come.
How many people were there?
In addition to many people who took the subway and bus, many people came by bicycle.
Today is September 30, 1983.
Friday.
The day before the National Day, there was no holiday yet.
Even so, many families, men, women, old and young, went out with their whole family.
Those who have money prepared money in advance.
Those who don't have money come to visit for free.
So many people have come outside the ParknShop supermarket now, even though the security personnel of the ParknShop supermarket and the police officers of Yanjing have prepared in advance.
There are still more and more people, they are waiting in line outside, and when the place officially opens for business, they will rush in.
Yang Ming doesn't know the situation over there.
He can guess it.
Just got up now.
In addition to Ah Zhu, Zhong Chuhong, and Guan Jiahui, Lin Xiuzhi is also here.
"Boss, are there really so many people in the ParknShop supermarket in Yanjing today?" Lin Xiuzhi asked.
"It's inevitable. Chinese people are very curious about new things."
Now that this kind of large supermarket has just appeared in China, it must be very interesting.
Even though this is Yanjing, many people have heard of it for the first time, so they naturally want to go and see it.
Yang Ming and Azhu came down from upstairs and had breakfast at the Oriental Mandarin Hotel in Yanjing.
Go upstairs to the luxury suite.
In the morning, representatives from Hong Kong who participated in the National Day came.
Yang Ming met Huo Yingdong and others.
Huo Yingdong was still a little worried about the domestic situation.
On the other hand, he heard that Sir Yang had invested in the first large supermarket in Yanjing. After talking with Yang Ming, he wanted to go and see the situation of the large supermarket.
8:00 am.
Tang Yun, Zhou Kaixuan, and other executives of the Empire Group's Yanjing Office, as well as representatives sent by Yanjing, first held a ribbon-cutting ceremony.
8:30 am.
There was no telling how many Yanjing citizens had gathered outside the supermarket. When the crowd began to be let in, thousands of citizens rushed to the eight main entrances of ParknShop.
