Chapter 179: Preparing for the flagship store
The preparation for the construction of the 'Royal Dragon' flagship store began a long time ago.
Magatama Niang only has experience in carving, however, she also has a certain understanding of the market, from raw materials to sales. If you want to let more people like 'Taoyuan Jade' and know Taoyuan Jade, an indispensable link is to bring 'Taoyuan Jade' to the market.
It doesn't matter if it's seed material or mountain material, anyway, as long as it's a material that someone likes, it's a good material.
Since ancient times, there has been a saying that 'jade cannot be carved without carving', that is, no matter how good the jade is, if you don't carve it, it is also a stone.
Therefore, no matter how good the material is, engraving is a very important link!
'Royal Dragon' has materials, and there are carvers ranked at least eighth in the world, their own carving factory, and the source of collection, so why not erect the 'Royal Dragon' signboard first!
So, this thing has been prepared for a long time!
"No problem!" Tang Long listened to the three cities that Gou Yuniang said, and agreed to come down, because these three cities are the top first-tier cities in China.
"In terms of manpower, have you decided who to send?" Tang Long asked with a smile.
It can be said that since two months ago, Gou Yuniang has begun to look for store manager candidates for the three 'Royal Dragon' flagship stores.
During this time, she has been to many jewelry and jade ** stores, and dozens of names have been recorded in the small book, these names are without exception, not the gold medal sales of this jewelry store, it is the elite in charge of the store, and if there is no one, then dig people.
The idea was given to her by Tang Long, if there is no brand, create your own brand, if there is no sales channel, create a sales channel, and if there is no staffing, then ...... Dig up other people's talents. Except for money and Taoyuan jade, everything else is easy to solve.
"Well, it's been chosen, but it's not officially talked about yet. A smile appeared at the corner of Gou Yuniang's mouth.
Tang Long smiled and asked, "Have you explored the style?"
Gou Yuniang nodded and said, "I have already revealed it to them, and I have also called them several times during the period, but I have not made it clear that I want to dig them up!"
"Then make it clear now!" Tang Long shrugged his shoulders, since he has decided, let's dig it, the people in the province still think you are amused.
Gou Yuniang hesitated, lowered her head slightly, and whispered, "Can you accompany me on a trip?"
What she meant was that she wanted Tang Long to accompany her out to dig people back, not that she didn't dare to go, but that Tang Long was by her side, and it felt safer.
Tang Long thought about it, there was nothing to do today, so he ran with Gou Yuniang, and by the way, he also decided the location of the flagship stores in Beijing, Modu and Pengcheng.
"Okay, when are you leaving?" Tang Long nodded and asked.
Gou Yuniang thought for a while and said, "This Saturday, when the two girls Yingying and Lingling will also have a holiday, take them with you!"
No matter what time it is, I can't forget my precious apprentice. Ren Yingying's talent, even Daniel Zhang's talent in jade is more emotional, in this regard, Gou Yuniang's vision in choosing apprentices is indeed vicious.
Compared with her sister, Ren Lingling is not as brilliant as Ren Yingying, the little girl has Gou Yuniang behind her back, on both sides of the Jinsha River, she is already a well-known 'little jade businessman', and unceremoniously said that no one dares to rob her of the 'stone' she likes.
Of course, in terms of relative price, Ren Yingying is not low, otherwise no one will specifically ask her to sell materials.
In short, the little girl is more bullish now, the master who can walk sideways on both sides of the Jinsha River, if you provoke her, no matter whether it is a material merchant or a jade digger, she will not let you go!
And Ren Yingying's courage, scheming, and far-sighted vision are what makes Tang Long optimistic.
To put it simply, you will never hesitate to bid for something, even if it is expensive, you will not hesitate to do so, provided that you like it!
Ren Lingling can't do this!
Ren Yingying said that it was the teaching of 'Master', from the first time she came into contact with jade, Gou Yuniang told her that as long as it is something she likes, then it is the best, jade is the same as people, any piece of jade in the world is unique, and if you miss it, you will miss it forever.
"In addition to the three flagship stores, do we also want to get a store in Taoyuan County?" asked Gou Yuniang softly.
Tang Long was stunned for a moment, then patted his forehead, nodded with a smile: "What you said reminded me that Taoyuan County is the birthplace of Taoyuan Jade, how can we Taoyuan County lack the 'Royal Dragon' flagship store, engage, not only to do it, but also to make the biggest." ”
Gou Yuniang laughed, Tang Long's statement coincided with what she thought, she also felt that since Taoyuan County is the birthplace of Taoyuan jade, then there should be a local culture of Taoyuan jade, where is the culture reflected? Even Taoyuan County has no local products for sale about 'Taoyuan jade', so it still has a fart culture.
Since 'Taoyuan Jade' belongs to the unique jade species in Taoyuan County, its 'root' should be here.
"Where do you think it's appropriate to put the 'Royal Dragon' ** store?" said Gou Yuniang with a smile.
Tang Long thought for a while and said, "The 'Taoyuan Jade and Jade Trading Market' planned by the county is in the east, so our 'flagship store' is also in the east, the place must be big, even if it can't be sold, it's good to be a booth." After a pause, he continued to smile: "I believe that those who are interested in 'Taoyuan Jade' will come over to patronize!"
'Yulong' is the earliest jade company in Taoyuan County to develop a physical flagship store, with a store of more than 300 square meters, close to the 'Taoyuan Jade Trading Center' in the north of the city.
A three-storey storefront with a booth downstairs and a warehouse upstairs.
Yulong Jade Company has purchased the store as a whole, and then began to renovate as a whole, and the project is expected to take a month and a half!
On Saturday, I said hello to Ren Lingling, Ren Yingying's family, left the first stop, and went to the city, there is a local gold jewelry company called 'Li Ji Gold Shop' in the city, the scale is very large, and there are more than a dozen ** stores in the surrounding counties and cities, mainly engaged in diamonds, gold and silver jewelry, and some jade products, which belong to local jewelry companies, and the development is very good.
"Wang Jiahui, twenty-seven years old this year, the manager of Dawang Road' Li Ji Gold Shop, has been in contact with the jewelry industry since she was seventeen years old, starting from welcoming guests, and then to jewelry sales, jewelry consultants, team leaders, store managers, characterized by caution and subtlety, I have seen her three times, the first time she pretended to be a customer, the second time she still played a customer, the third time I invited her to lunch, and I talked on the phone four times in two months!"
On the way to the city, Gou Yuniang briefly introduced Tang Long to the first store manager candidate to 'dig'!
Wang Jiahui is a native of Taoyuan County and belongs to the 'local' talent!
"How are you going to dig her?" Tang Long asked with a smile. has worked in a company for ten years, from the very beginning to the supervisor, I believe that she herself should be very affectionate towards this company. What's more, Li Ji Gold Shop can be trained from the reception at the door of a county-level jewelry store to the manager of one of the few flagship stores in the urban area in ten years, which shows that there is no problem with the promotion mechanism of this company, and the companies that can give employees reasonable promotion space are all good companies without exception.
