Chapter 163: The Star Sand Field is officially established
The chief surgeon of Zhang Dechun's wife's surgery is the one who operated on Liu Chen's father last time, so the technical aspect can be ensured, and the whole operation process is quite smooth, and there will be no sequelae and side symptoms. Follow-up needs to be hospitalized for recuperation, but the cost is not large, Zhang Dechun accompanies and takes care of him day and night, although he is a husband and wife in distress, but the relationship between the two is not reduced at all, his son who is in junior high school also comes to the hospital every day after school, and the warmth of the family makes others envious.
Xiaodong's list was sent to Liu Chen, listing everything he could investigate about the construction in Jiangxia City. Liu Chen discovered a phenomenon, almost half of the projects are contracted by Hongyu Construction, and the power is really strong, no wonder they dare to blatantly force others to sign a contract to sell themselves.
The second largest share is the Time and Space Real Estate Group, a real estate company that is also quite famous in Jiangxia, and the Tianyi Mansion where Li Rongfei lives is their project. But Liu Chen's eyes noticed a low-ranking company, Tianhe Group, Liu Chen remembered that this company belonged to Qin Si, but he didn't expect her to start laying out the Jiangxia market so soon, it seems that she has a lot of ambitions, just do it.
According to the current state, Hongyu Construction is in full swing, and Liu Chen plans to cooperate with other developers and builders to transport the sand to their construction sites, expand his own market, and then compete for the market of Hongyu Construction. In Liu Chen's eyes, Hongyu Building is just a paper tiger, which cannot be maintained for a long time by relationship and violence, and the quality is not up to par, and it will eventually lift a stone to shoot itself in the foot, and will be eliminated by the society.
Liu Chen spent a lot of time and energy to complete all the formalities such as the license, and the sand farm can finally be officially launched. Unlike many entrepreneurs and bosses who bribe through money, Liu Chen focused on analyzing the pros and cons of various aspects in the process of inviting the officials of the Land and Resources Bureau to dinner, and successfully obtained the relevant licenses without spending a penny of extra money. Because he firmly believes that interests are the most basic element of cooperation, money is only an accessory, and under the current anti-corruption pressure, the only result of money bondage is to go to prison. Everyone is a smart person, and they have a tacit understanding of what to do.
Liu Chen named his sand field Xingchen Sand Field, and added the word Chen in his name in order to engrave his own brand, which is truly his own industry.
The sand field was established, in addition to the team, but also need to dig sand and other workers, salesmen, logistics personnel, etc., Liu Chen asked Tong Xinyan to recruit people, it may be that Tong Xinyan has a good image, or it may be a high salary, and she received more than 50 application materials in one day. She sorted out these materials, brought them to Liu Chen, and asked Liu Chen to screen them.
Liu Chen gives preference to unemployed people with many years of experience, because these people are often waiting to support their families, and they will work harder. Secondly, he chose those young people who came out of the countryside, they are more pragmatic, they are the hope of the whole family, so that they can live a good life, which is also what Liu Chen hopes to see.
On the contrary, he does not value academic qualifications, one is because academic qualifications represent the past and do not represent the future, and the other is that sand field work does not require much academic qualifications, just work hard.
After screening, 32 people were left, including 15 sand field staff, 5 internal staff, 8 salesmen, and 4 logistics personnel.
32 people, according to the average salary of 5,000 per person, the salary and benefits are 160,000 yuan in just one month, which is indeed not a small pressure, but Liu Chen believes that as long as it is operating normally, these are small problems, and maybe not a problem at all.
The top priority is to mine the sand as soon as possible, sell the sand, and only when the money comes in can the money be paid.
Liu Chen attached great importance to this matter, and he called Xiaodong to the office alone and explained the task to him in person.
"Xiaodong, you've worked hard for you all this time, and you've been running outside. Liu Chen handed Xiaodong a new pack of cigarettes he bought, which was a recognition of his recent performance.
Xiaodong's full name is Li Xiangdong, 27 years old, a native of Jiangxia City, who began to work in the construction industry at the age of 20 and has rich experience in marketing and sales. He was introduced by Zhang Zhiming, so he is absolutely reliable, and Liu Chen is also relieved to entrust him with important tasks.
Xiaodong took the cigarette in Liu Chen's hand and said, "Thank you, Brother Liu, it's not hard." β
Liu Chen stood up, walked around the table, came to Xiaodong's side, put his shoulder on his shoulder, came to the window, and said with a serious expression: "Only by selling the mined sand can we make money, Xiaodong, I hope you can find a suitable customer as soon as possible, in case you encounter violent obstruction from other sand fields, notify me immediately, and I will solve it." β
Xiaodong turned his head and asked, "Then where did I start, on that list?"
"Yes, in that list, among the inferior suppliers I circled, the share of less than 5% is counted, they are all begging at the bottom, do not grab their market, start from 10%, from the bottom to the top, negotiate in turn, the best who are willing to cooperate, those who are unwilling to cooperate, write it down, if they resist violently, call me directly, I will solve it. "Liu Chen made up his mind to eliminate these inferior suppliers from the market under the river, and if the relevant departments do not act, then I will do something for them.
Although Xiaodong has rich experience in the market, he is still young after all, and it seems too immature to negotiate with those middle-aged people who are five big and three rough or even old people who are a generation older than him, Liu Chen is not without taking this into account, but his goal is to make his team younger, and many things must be exercised and improved.
Liu Chen is actually ready for violent conflicts, the best way to solve problems in this industry is violent means, generally speaking, the profiteering industry is maintained through violent means, and the gray area is always full of blood, wandering on the dark side of the law.
Sure enough, the first supplier that Xiaodong negotiated did not agree to cooperate, and they were also actively expanding the market, and it was impossible to share their market with others, let alone Xingchen, an unknown person in the industry.
This is expected by Liu Chen, the rivers and lakes pay attention to seniority, and the same is true of this industry, if something is not done, no one will take Xingchen seriously.
The next day, Liu Chen took Wu Sheng and Ji Zhiyuan, and under the leadership of Xiaodong, he came to this sand and gravel supplier called "Zongheng".
After Liu Chen and others explained their intentions, the marketing manager of Zongheng came to receive them, and they came to the living room to sit down for a discussion.
This marketing manager had an extremely arrogant attitude, Xiaodong was received by him before, so he didn't plan to negotiate with Liu Chen and them at all, it was just for a perfunctory response, and he didn't even make the tea that was to be treated.
Wu Sheng and the others were so angry when they saw him so arrogant and rude, but seeing Liu Chen's calm appearance, they couldn't break out.
Liu Chen said with a smile: "Manager Hong, although our Xingchen has just started, the quality of our sand is very good, if we cooperate with both sides, I believe that we will soon be able to open up the potential market in Jiangxia City." β
Manager Hong picked his nails while listening, and after listening to Liu Chen's words, he pretended to analyze very seriously: "According to the data analysis of our marketing department, we have a good momentum of development and great prospects, and even if we want to cooperate, we will find Hongyu time and space These large companies to cooperate, for the time being, there is no intention to cooperate with small companies, don't blame me for speaking ugly, you don't know if you can survive tomorrow, how dare we cooperate with you? I dare to say, you can't find a partner in the whole river." β
"Any company is from small to big, Hongyu time and space are the same, and the quality of our sand is the best in the entire city of Jiangxia. Liu Chen emphasized the quality advantage of his sand, and he still hoped that peace would promote cooperation, but what he got was ridiculed by Manager Hong.
"Hehe, you are so young, too naΓ―ve, who still looks at the quality now? Do those little people look at the quality? Or those developers look at the quality? If there is no major accident, just get by, no one will care too much about the quality, who has a better relationship, whose fist is harder, who can expand their own market. "Manager Hong has brought out his own set of fallacies, although it seems to have some truth, but it is an excuse for their inferior products.
"If the quality of real estate projects cannot be guaranteed, it will bring huge safety risks to the people......
Manager Hong interrupted Liu Chen's words impatiently, picked up his mobile phone and shook it: "I'm not here to listen to you, I still have a meeting, please go back, we won't cooperate." With that, he got up and left his seat and walked to the door.
Liu Chen showed a mysterious smile, nodded, stood up, and walked out.
"Whose fist is harder, right?" Liu Chen walked past Manager Hong, left a word for him, and then took the others out of the door of the company.
Manager Hong looked at the back of Liu Chen and the others leaving, and this sentence kept echoing in his mind.
Liu Chen and the others got into the car, drove out of the compound, and stopped under a tree on the side of the road.
"Brother Liu, just leave like this?" Ji Zhiyuan asked unwillingly.
Wu Sheng knocked on Ji Zhiyuan's head and explained, "Didn't you hear what Brother Liu said to the fat man when he left? β
Everyone looked at Liu Chen, who was smoking silently alone, as if he was planning something big in his heart.
After a while, Liu Chen extinguished his cigarette and said leisurely: "Wu Sheng is right, we also tried just now, gentle means don't work at all, they look down on us even more, so we need to use the last violent means, beat them until they hurt, beat them until they cry, and beat them until they quit!" Liu Chen's eyes flashed with determination and confidence to win.
