Chapter 54: A New Beginning

August 29th.

A bus is speeding on the highway from Pingjiang to Jiangzhou. Li Chen was clasping his arms with his hands, staring out the car window in a daze......

Zhang Guifen still didn't accompany Li Chen to Jiangzhou after all!

After telling his mother about the Youwei convenience store yesterday, he found that he and his mother seemed to have an indescribable gap!

This made Li Chen a little confused!

According to his own understanding, the son has the ability to earn money and be self-sufficient, shouldn't the mother be happy?

Li Chen felt a little sleepy, changed his position, leaned on the seat and gradually fell asleep!

......

Jiangzhou City, the capital of Hedong Province!

This city carries too many memories of Li Chen's previous life, but goodbye is a new one! Can he, a little butterfly, wave the years of history?

Li Chen sighed infinitely for a while!

After getting off the bus, I made a phone call with Xu Yang, and went straight to Youwei's company! In fact, it was a temporary office in Jiangzhou! An office building called Zhongzheng Plaza located near the center of the city was only 15 square meters!

I haven't seen him for a month, and I can see that Xu Yang's complexion is a little dark! Although the city of Jiangzhou is not as hot as the furnace city, it is not the same!

Li Chen smiled: "Brother Xu, this time has been hard!"

The two exchanged brief greetings and came to Xuyang's office, Li Chen took a break for a while, and then said: "I didn't expect that in only four months, we came to Jiangzhou!"

remembered that the teenager invited him to do things a few months ago, and he thought he was a liar, but he never thought that he would return to Jiangzhou in the blink of an eye.

Xu Yang sighed: "Yes, I didn't expect it either! At first, I thought I would stay in Pingjiang for a while longer!"

Li Chen habitually took out a box of cigarettes, and after the two of them lit them separately: "Brother Xu, tell me a word from your heart, are you still optimistic about the prospects of the convenience store now?"

"There is still a prospect!"

Xu Yang didn't expect Li Chen to come up and ask a question, he took a deep puff of cigarette: "I sometimes think about this problem, I always feel that the layout of convenience stores should be a supplement to large supermarkets! During this time, I have been wandering around every area in Jiangzhou, and the supermarket industry is far from reaching the stage of saturation!"

Xu Yang also said: "Wal-Mart, an international giant, is actually only one in the world, and it is still in the renovation stage!

Li Chen knows the prospect of convenience stores, and there is a lot to be done! After all, in later generations, those Internet giants will even make high-profile layout of convenience stores, and you can see it!

But at that time, the domestic economy was not known to be many times better than now! This caused Li Chen to have a kind of uncertainty in his heart!

Li Chen doesn't understand capital, nor does he know how to operate, and the only thing that others are strong about is that he only knows a general development direction for future generations, and that's it!

The cause is like an arrow that leaves the mystery, and it will not give up until it reaches the end! Before you know it, the number of stores has reached 23! The number of employees has also increased to nearly 50!

Li Chen took a puff of his cigarette and said flatly: "Brother Xu, I said before that I would spend Youwei convenience stores all over Hedong Province within three years! To be honest, this was my initial idea! At this time, I was a little confused!"

Xu Yang asked suspiciously, "What do you say?"

"We are in Pingjiang, don't look at the development is still going well, the reason must be clear to you! Whether it is the feeling of the store, the store environment, and the service concept, I don't know how many times better than other local non-staple food stores! We are also the first people to eat crabs! Before I came, Pingjiang actually had a colleague who opened several non-staple food stores similar to ours! I am not worried about Pingjiang, but in Jiangzhou, this makes me a little uncertain!" Li Chen said.

"Mr. Li, if you have this concern, I can too, after all, the threshold of convenience stores is relatively low! My idea is that while we expand the number of stores, we should strengthen the promotion of the brand, make it localized, and let the people accept it, know it, and get close to it!"

"What is your good strategy?" asked Li Chen.

"It's not a good strategy! I can only say that when the time is right, we can learn 7-11. Let's see if we can pay for ATMs, water, electricity, and gas in community stores, and at the same time learn from some other large supermarkets to launch a membership system!"

"Water and electricity, membership?"

In his previous life, there were also members in convenience, which seemed to be of little use to people who consumed in time, and it was basically useless!

No water, electricity, and electricity will be feasible at that time!

"Let's not talk about this yet!"

Li Chen waved his hand and said, "Let's talk about some of the situation here in Jiangzhou first!"

"We can enter Chenghua District in advance!"

Xu Yang took out a map of Jiangzhou City, put it in front of Li Chen and said: "The city center is also in Chenghua, this district has developed commerce and large personnel mobility! Residential buildings are also relatively mature! Judging from the current situation of our company itself, it is the most suitable!"

After saying that, I took out a thick stack of materials, but this time I printed it out on A4 paper!

After Li Chen took over, Huang. glanced at it, then put it on the coffee table, and said casually: "Brother Xu, I will hand over the company's big and small things to you, are you still adaptable?"

Xu Yang glanced at Li Chen in surprise, saw him smoking with a calm face, couldn't tell how many layers of meaning he meant, and said lightly: "It's okay!"

Li Chen nodded lightly: "The company's affairs will go according to the plan, and I will work hard for you during this time!"

"It's a duty!" Xu Yang said.

......

After Li Chen left the company, he walked around the neighborhood, and then found a headhunting company!

The person who received Li Chen was a capable middle-aged man, surnamed Ran! He looked particularly capable in a suit, and the other party did not have doubts when he saw Li Chen's young age, and he spoke very sensibly and politely!

Li Chen said: "Mr. Ran, I currently need your company to help me find two professional managers!"

"Mr. Li is really joking, I'm just a doer!"

The man surnamed Ran said with a smile on his face, "What kind of talent do you need?"

"One is in retail, and the other is in the interior decoration industry!" Li Chen said.

"Mr. Li, take the liberty of asking, how big is your current company?" said the man surnamed Ran.

Li Chen said calmly: "Entrepreneurial company, welfare is convenient, and everything is preferential!"

Seeing that Li Chen didn't say anything, the man surnamed Ran didn't ask, he asked again: "Mr. Li, do you have any specific requirements?"

"I can't tell myself!"

Li Chen smiled and said, "It's best for you to provide more lists of intentions, I'm so picky!"

"That's for sure!"

The man surnamed Ran asked, "Are you in a hurry here?"

"Best in a week!"

After chatting with the other party for a few more words, the other party promised to promise to do things well, Li Chen was also happy to hear this kind of words, and after paying the deposit, he left!
