Chapter 89: Jumping off the building

Dawn!

Su Chen walked out of the storage room, locked the door, and returned to his room.

"Big brother is back. ”

As soon as the door opened, the little girl raised her head, her eyes smiled into crescent moons, and the TV in the hall was watching at the moment, and the cartoon "Joyful" was playing, and the little girl watched it with taste.

"Xiangxiang, you watched TV all night?"

Xiangxiang is Su Chen's nickname for the little girl, the name Wang Fengxiang is too old, as soon as she hears the name, she knows that she is at least a woman in her thirties and forties, and it always feels a little awkward to call this name to a little girl.

"Well, the TV is good. ”

Xiangxiang nodded obediently, she already had a TV in her time, but at that time her family was not poor, she had just watched it a few times in other people's houses in the village, and it was the kind of black and white TV.

"Then you can continue to watch at home. ”

Xiangxiang is a ghost, and ghosts can not sleep for a short time.

Su Chen looked at the mouse nesting on the sofa, the mouse obviously had no interest in this cartoon, squinting and looking listless.

"I'm out for a little bit of a business, so stay here and don't wander around. ”

After explaining this, Su Chen went back to his room to change into a set of clothes, and then took a taxi and went out.

Dream Times Square, from the completion of construction to the opening of only five years, has a lot of people, and it can be regarded as a new business circle in NC City.

"Mr. Su, you are right to choose our shop, our average daily customer flow is more than 20,000, and they are all high-quality customers, which now includes all aspects of clothing, food, housing and transportation. ”

At the gate of Dream Times Square, a salesperson from the investment promotion department of the square was introducing the situation of the mall to Su Chen.

"Is there a restriction on the scope of your business?"

Su Chen did not enter the mall, but pointed to a shop outside the mall, which is separated from the mall by a roadway, but the second floor is connected by a corridor, which is somewhat similar to the design of Wanda King Street.

"There is no limit to the scope of business. ”

When the sales manager heard Su Chen's question, he was stunned for a moment and immediately answered.

For example, the first and second floors can only allow beauty, clothing and digital stores, and the third floor can only be used for catering.

But there are not so many restrictions on these shops outside, not to mention that several shops are still empty here, and it is good for someone to rent, and there is no restriction at all.

In fact, this salesman also has a bottom in his heart, opening a store in this kind of place, and it is impossible to say that he sells seafood and vegetables or anything in the scope of business, so he dares to say such things.

"Is there really no restriction on the scope of business?"

Su Chen smiled and asked again, there are still some things that need to be asked clearly, after all, the store he opened here is different from the ordinary store in the mall.

Hearing Su Chen ask, the sales hesitated for a while, but in the end he still reacted and asked, "Mr. Su, what business do you want to run?"

"The person who sells incense candles, paper money, and paper is probably an incense candle shop. ”

Su Chen didn't hide the true situation, maybe he could rent this shop smoothly if he concealed it now, but there would be some trouble in the end.

First of all, most people are a little taboo about shops that sell dead people's supplies such as incense and candles, and if they open a store here, then the shops on both sides will not be so easy to sell, and there will definitely be complaints from the mall at that time, Su Chen doesn't want to deal with these troubles later.

Just say it at the beginning.

"Open an incense and candle shop?"

The salesman's face is full of strange expressions, and there is no precedent for opening an incense and candle shop in a shopping mall in the whole country.

Because the mall is a prosperous commercial area, the rent is naturally not cheap, so these stores in the mall are all high-interest, even if it is a clothing brand, it is also those brand clothing.

How much profit is your incense and candle shop, and you don't know if the money you make is enough to pay rent, utilities, and property fees.

Of course, this is only one point, and there is another point that the shopping mall will not agree, the incense and candle shop is for the dead, and the Chinese people are very taboo in this regard.

"Mr. Su, you're not kidding me. ”

Meng Liaoyu was a little speechless, he had to wonder if the other party was deliberately playing tricks on himself.

"I'm not kidding, I do want to rent this shop to open an incense and candle shop, but my incense and candle shop is different from ordinary incense and candle shops, it should belong to that kind of high-end type. ”

"No matter how high-end it is, it's also selling dead people's supplies. ”

Meng Liaoyu muttered in his heart, extremely disappointed in his heart, this business seems to have failed.

"Mr. Su, I'm really sorry, if that's the case, then I'm afraid we can't rent this shop to you. Although there are some regrets, Meng Liaoyu is not angry, and his attitude is still good.

Hearing the other party's words, Su Chen was not surprised, and asked, "Is it because of the regulations that your shops can't operate incense and candle shops?"

"There's no such rule. ”

Meng Liaoyu only answered the first half of the sentence, and he didn't say the second half of the sentence, although there is no such regulation, but that is because the management does not think that such a situation will occur at all.

"Since there is no such rule, then I should have no problem renting it. ”

"So, I asked the director. ”

Meng Liaoyu didn't dare to make his own decisions, and this matter still had to be reported to the supervisor to see the supervisor's opinions and ideas.

......

Dream Times Executive Floor Meeting Room.

"Everyone knows the current situation in the mall, let's talk about what suggestions there are. ”

Li Xuan sat at the top, looking at his subordinates, as the chairman, he generally does not participate in the specific management of the mall, there is a special responsible team and executives, but the current situation is a little different, he must come to the meeting in person to find a solution.

There is no other reason, in the past few months, the traffic of the shopping mall has plummeted, and the transaction volume has also decreased a lot, many merchants have been very dissatisfied, and many merchants who are about to expire to renew their contracts have also begun to wait and see at this moment.

For a shopping mall, merchants are a must, if the merchants have no confidence in the mall, then the mall will be difficult to maintain.

Dream Times Shopping Mall accounts for almost one-third of his net worth, and Li Xuan naturally does not dare to take it lightly.

It's just that after he said this, the scene was a little silent, and everyone knew the reason for the sudden drop in traffic in the mall.

Four months ago, a girl jumped off the office building in the mall, but fortunately she didn't die, and the mall didn't take it seriously at first, after all, there are many people who have committed suicide these years.

But who knew that in the past three days, someone jumped off the building again, and this time the person who jumped off the building died directly.

Two people jumped off the building a week, and the whole city spread all over the city, and many citizens began to mumble, but this is nothing, the shopping mall has also begun public relations, giving a lot of preferential activities, and the customer flow has come up again, even more than usual, of course, this is because of the concession.

Seeing that the negative impact was almost eliminated, all the employees of the mall breathed a sigh of relief, but who knew that a week later, something happened again, and the third person who jumped off the building appeared.

In half a month, three people jumped off the building, this time the dream era is completely famous, and many media have also come to interview, you must know that now is the era of self-media, I don't know how many new media need this kind of eye-catching news, and the entire circle of friends has also been blown up.

But this is not the weirdest, the weirdest thing is that in the next two months, there is a suicide who jumps off the building every month, even if the mall security has blocked the roof and some windows, but it is still useless, the mall can not let all office buildings add barbed wire outside the windows.

"Mr. Li, I think we can carry out more detailed protection and completely prevent this from happening. ”

There was silence for a moment before the head of the maintenance department spoke.

"There's nothing wrong with protection, but the key issue right now is how to turn the tide of the situation, and the rumors about our malls are spreading across the city, which is the most important thing to solve at the moment. ”

Li Xuan glanced at the supervisor, how could he not know this, and adding barbed wire and fences is a lot of time, this is a huge project, at least it will take a month or two, but the key now is how to restore customer flow and restore the confidence of merchants.

The people present also heard rumors outside, saying that there were unclean things in the mall, which is why so many people jumped off the building one after another, and they also said that there were some so-called feng shui masters, and they also talked about feng shui problems according to the map.

It is because of these rumors that the traffic of the mall has dropped so much.

Li Xuan looked at the silent supervisors, and felt a little helpless, some of these rumors were made up by good people, and some were arranged by competitors, but in the face of such rumors, it was the most difficult to deal with.

Because this thing is too evil, you can't refute rumors if you want to, how can you refute rumors about idealism?

"Mr. Li, otherwise, we will invite a professional to come over, so that the citizens will rest assured. ”

The deputy general manager suggested euphemistically that everyone present understood the subconscious meaning of his words, that is, to invite a Taoist priest or monk to do a ritual, and then the Taoist priest and monk said that the mall was safe, which would be more convincing.

"There's something wrong with this, if it's really invited, wouldn't it confirm the rumors that there are dirty things in our mall. A management retorted.

And just when everyone was discussing, the third man sitting on Li Xuan's left side of the phone rang, and after glancing at the call, he answered the phone directly.

This supervisor is an old subordinate who follows Li Xuan, and he knows the character of his boss, and he is not the kind of person who doesn't want to be disturbed when he has a meeting, and if he has something to do at work, he can also take it during the meeting.
