Chapter 150: The Drawbacks of the Store
With the continuous development of the hardware industry, the original production, operation and infrastructure can no longer meet the further development of Diankou hardware enterprises, and even has a negative impact.
At the moment, more than 2,000 private enterprises are scattered in their respective villages, and the 700 or so hardware stores in the town are only crowded into a few old and narrow streets such as Lao Cai, Cunkou Street, and Qiaoxia Street.
Some enterprises scattered in the villages had long planned to move to the town, but they ran aground again and again because they could not find a place to operate in the town; some old business households in the town wanted to expand their factories and stores, but because there was no land available, they put it off again and again; and many business households from other places who wanted to come to the store for development also closed their doors again and again for the same reason.
There is even a phenomenon that sounds unbelievable to outsiders, some foreign business households from Wenzhou, because they can't find a business room, have to charter a hotel and restaurant at the entrance of the store to be used as a place for purchase, delivery, and trading.
At this moment, the store called the hometown of hardware, but it is still an old appearance, horizontal and messy market, so that the customers who come to trade and visit feel a little disappointed, and the products are mainly "low, small and scattered", which brings a direct negative impact on the development of the hardware industry in the store.
As the desire of the majority of business households to improve the business environment is getting stronger and stronger, more and more urgent, and the voice is getting higher and higher.
In order to improve the environment of the store, the town government discussed the countermeasures of Han Sanjiang, Mu Chunfeng, and Jiang Yuanqiao's leading groups, and decided to make a drastic reform of the store, so a people's congress was held at the store, and the purpose of the meeting was to establish a super-large commercial market, so that all the people who do small hardware come to the store to operate their own small hardware.
I heard that to establish a large hardware market, all the small hardware people went to the meeting, because it is related to their vital interests, but also related to the future development of the store.
Han Sanjiang spoke at the venue: "Dear fathers and fellow villagers, hello everyone! Today I call everyone to come, we must also know the purpose of the meeting, our conference is not for anything else, just for the current status quo of our store's hardware, worried, first, our store has developed, but our small hardware is like a grocery store on the narrow street to sell, and some put it on the road, just like the food vendors on the street, disorganized, our small hardware is not a stall, placed on the ground, under the bridge, everywhere in the village, which makes the customers who come to our store to sell small hardware see, what kind of concept is in mindThey feel in their hearts that our products are very inferior, inferior to the same as the stalls, and have no taste. ”
"Yes, I found that our small hardware has become bigger, there are more factories, but it is so scattered that it is not good, and there are more factories in our store, but there are fewer business households, more than 2,300 small and medium-sized enterprises, can only be sold in the three narrow places of Lao Street, Qiaoxia Street, and Cunkou Street, and there are only seven or eight hundred business premises in the three streets, so that the small hardware of the remaining more than 1,000 enterprises has no place to operate! This really looks aggrieved and panicked, and it is still very cowardly?" someone stood up and spoke.
"It's embarrassing, but in recent times, there have been fewer hostels and restaurants, do you know why there are few?" someone asked.
"That's not the big boss of Wenzhou, for their own convenience, actually chartered the hotel restaurant at a high price, as their own business premises, used for purchase, delivery, and trading, so that it is difficult for foreign customers to come to our store to sell small hardware······? Someone replied again.
"Why?" someone asked.
"Why, isn't this unclear? If you go to a city and can't find something to eat, can you still stay? People are pig iron, rice is steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you're hungry, and we don't even have a restaurant, and over time, who else wants to come to our store, isn't this self-destruction of the Great Wall?" Someone finally raised a more sensitive question.
"That's right, no matter how good a place is, it's so good that you can't even find a place to eat, so what's so good? That's just nonsense! When someone goes to you to buy something, there isn't even a restaurant or a hotel, and you call someone else, don't eat during the day, and sleep on the overpass at night, and grab land with Hanako? Tell me, is this okay?" someone replied.
"I don't say anything, a few customers come to my store to buy small hardware, after buying can't find a place to eat, and can't find a place to stay, as a result, there is no way to tell me, eat in my store for a few days, stay for a few days, when leaving, full of complaints! I don't know if they will come next time, I don't have the confidence to say this. One of the shop owners said.
Mu Chunfeng saw that everyone had suffering, and wanted to spit out the bitterness in his heart, but we were in a meeting, not a place to spit bitterness, standing on the stage and shouting loudly: "Fellow villagers, everyone be quiet and quiet!"
Everyone had to be quiet and listen to Mayor Mu.
Mu Chunfeng smiled knowingly at everyone and hugged his fists to express his gratitude.
Then I tell everyone: " Folks, fathers and elders, hello everyone, today called everyone to a meeting, its main purpose is to solve the problem in your heart, our town government decided to plan a hardware city in the store, so that each enterprise can stop, have their own store, we also understand the current predicament, the development of the store is too fast, but our infrastructure is always one step behind, even several steps, looking at the restaurant and hotel in the store less and less, we see in the eyes of the anxious heart, but also panicked, if not continue to change the status quo, we will not have customers in the future。 ”
"Yes, yes, there is no place to eat and live, who would dare to come and come to starve and sleep on the overpass?" someone in the venue chimed in.
Mu Chunfeng signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said: "When the time comes, who will we sell the things we produce? Therefore, we will call everyone to discuss the planning rules for building a hardware city, but to build a hardware city, it requires hundreds of millions of capital, covering an area of more than 500 acres, a hardware city with reasonable structure, complete facilities, and a professional market, industrial community, and business center. We estimate that it will cost 140,000 to 50 million yuan to build this city, and do you think that there is a need to build this hardware city? If we think it is necessary to build it, then we will enclose the land to build it. We can also raise funds to build our own part, and we are not reluctant, we can adopt the method of enclosing land for bidding, and whoever pays for the construction of the No. 1 landmark can do it, and whoever pays for the construction of the No. 2 landmark will do so.
"Mayor Mu's bidding is not advisable, and we resolutely oppose it!" Many people raised their hands to speak.
Jiang Yuanqiao asked: "Tell me the reasons for your opposition, why is it not advisable?"
"The reason is: if you have money, you can buy ten landmarks, or even more, and if you don't have any money, you can't buy landmarks. This method will not work, we can only raise funds together to build and share it according to the proportion, so that everyone can get their own share, everyone has their own business façade, and there will never be a situation like the old street, where a rich family occupies dozens of storefronts, and they spend money to contract the storefront, and more than 200 households occupy the entire market in such a long street, is this fair? Therefore, we cannot go all the way down the old road! Rectify the unfair things and turn them into fairness!"
Han Sanjiang understood what everyone meant, so he said: "Just these words, it exposed the shortcomings of our store, well, we built a hardware city to solve these shortcomings, not because you are as big as Dun'an, Wan'an, Hailiang, and Luxiao, you can buy the entire hardware city, you buy it, then we don't have to do business? So this doesn't work, we must build together, raise funds together, only in this way can we solve the fundamental problem of the store." What do you say?"
"Yes, yes, Secretary Han, it's not a loss to our good leader, that's right!"
"Okay, good, let's raise funds to build our hardware city together, and with our own hardware city, we have our own way out······" Everyone, you said it word by word.
