733. Gatherings
The model of the distant commercial building in Beitong City and Baida Plaza is not quite the same.
They did not manage all the shopping malls at the same time, but sold or rented out all the other buildings except the main building, and then took the distant commercial building as the core to drive the marketing of several other shopping malls around. The self-management model is also different, and the distant commercial building adopts a centralized and independent management model. To put it simply, it is to gather all kinds of big names at home and abroad, but they will not rent out the shops for them to operate, it is good to collect rent or something, but for Zhou Fangyuan's future arrangement, it is obviously not the best choice. More often, he regarded the distant commercial building as a separate individual, and in the name of the commercial building, he cooperated with those big brands, paid to buy their products, and carried out agent distribution.
By the way, it's similar to the kind of specialty store of various brands on the street, but according to the scale of the distant commercial building, it is the kind of agency of hundreds of brands at the same time, and then open a super large store, and all the brands are put into it to operate together, which is almost the same meaning. The advantage of doing this, first of all, is to prepare for the future, Zhou Fangyuan's thoughts on the retail industry have been said before, and I will not repeat it here. Secondly, with the identity and status of Yuanfang Group, it bypasses the agents at all levels of some brands and directly takes the goods at the lowest price, which not only ensures profit margins, but also ensures the quality of products. Even if you get the goods through provincial or municipal agents, it is not necessarily 100% genuine, and the water is deep, especially these international brands, which can win the agency rights of a province in China, none of them are simple people.
Zhou Fangyuan is not afraid of these people, the Yuanfang Group is now in a relatively detached position, on the Beitong ground, the Yuanfang Group can not be a bird, even if it is out of the Beitong ground, there are not many people who can pose a threat to the Yuanfang Group, if it is really time to break his wrists, he is not afraid of anyone. Some people say that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, Zhou Fangyuan also said that it is not a raptor but the river, but he has no heart to toss back and forth with these people on such a small matter, so he simply bypasses the other party, cooperates with big brands as a distant group, takes the goods, and then ships them from the headquarters and sends them to the various shopping malls below, which can be regarded as another system, and basically has nothing to do with the agents at all levels on the ground.
......
"Cheers!"
In the box, a group of students toasted together, and the atmosphere was hot.
It was a small class reunion, not the kind where the whole class attended, but only a small group of people.
Now there is only such a party, which Zhou Fangyuan is willing to come, like the kind of class-wide nature, I'm sorry, he has no interest in it at all.
I have said before that it is not that I look down on those classmates, Zhou Fangyuan's family is also an ordinary family, it has developed in the past few years, and he is also very ordinary if he goes back a few years. He was reluctant to participate in those large-scale class reunions, just because his classmates had grown up now and thought too much, and many people's hearts began to be impetuous, and even cranky. Zhou Fangyuan didn't want to destroy the image of his classmates in his heart, and he didn't want to see their philistine side, so he simply didn't participate in the big party. On the contrary, it is this kind of small party, and generally speaking, only people who have a particularly good time will attend.
Zhou Fang didn't say how well he played with these people, but it is obvious that the people who can come here today are all classmates who worked with the Zhou family back then.
For example, Ma Zhengwei, his father is an aquatic product, and now in Beitong City, he is also a well-known aquatic businessman, one of the best, some of the aquatic products inside Jinbolo, are still supplied by Ma Zhengwei's family, it can be said that the cooperation between the two of them has lasted for a long time. Another example is Liu Yu, Liu Yu's words, the family is engaged in a cargo station, and the large-scale wholesale is wrong to find them, but now the cooperation between the two sides has stopped, mainly because the scale of Liu Yu's cargo station is still small, which is not very able to meet the needs of the distant group. If it is said that if the supply capacity is not enough, Yuanfang Group will have to find other suppliers, which will be more troublesome. But on the other hand, if Liu Yu's family is allowed to serve the Yuanfang Group wholeheartedly, is it okay? Zhou Fangyuan is no problem. But Liu Yu's family couldn't accept it, because once that happened, their cargo station would be annexed by Zhou Fangyuan when it was not ready.
Just like Li Zheng's team, Li Zheng's team, as early as three years ago, was completely merged into the team within the Yuanfang Group, Li Zheng's father is now also the manager of the team under the Yuanfang Group, of course, the income is much higher than before, and there is no need to worry so much. Maintaining a car is a very troublesome thing. Let's talk about the car, annual inspection, fuel, maintenance, repair, insurance, replacement...... It's all a thing. Once the car is on the road, it costs money to hire a driver, tolls, wear and tear on the road, and if you accidentally have a car accident, compensation in all aspects, etc., these all require money. It is impossible not to get out of the car, and the team can only make money when it is active, but once it is active, all kinds of expenses are not mentioned, just all kinds of big and small things, which can make people feel sad. But if you don't run, you can't run, the car doesn't run, you need money to park there, in short, everything talks to money. What's more troublesome is that with the development of society, the logistics industry has begun to take off gradually, there are more and more large companies, and the business of small fleets is not easy to do.
In many cases, even if the team owner wants to get his own team running, it's easy to get a job, and if you can't find a job, you might as well just park there.
Li Zheng's father has not been in good health in the past few years, and he suffered too much when he was young, and his body was a little in deficit. In addition, business is not good, so when Zhou's father mentioned to him that he wanted to build a team within the company, Li Zheng's father took the initiative to merge his own team into it. Of course Dad Zhou is happy, this was his original purpose.
As a result, at the wine table, the matter was negotiated, the team, for the time being, did not establish a new company, and existed in the form of a branch within the group, Li Zheng's father took the original team as a shareholder, and at the same time undertook the work of the general manager of the "branch". It is equivalent to joining the Yuanfang Group on the one hand, becoming a middle-level manager, and on the other hand, having shares, not to mention how happy it is now. After all, there are special people to be responsible for the above work, and he, the general manager, does not have much daily work, mainly the arrangement and deployment of vehicles, etc., as well as some personnel management. There are special financial personnel in finance, which are only sent to the company.
I have made less money, I have less heart to worry about, my body is healthier, and the most important thing is that my mentality is healthy.
Laughing every day, drinking two cups when the mood comes, compared to the state of being sad every year a few years ago, now he is like a person.
So Li Zheng's feelings for Zhou Fangyuan are more complicated, on the one hand, he feels that his father works for others, and it is more or less embarrassing to say it, after all, everyone is a classmate, if it is a complete stranger, he is also so-called, but once he is his classmate, he will inevitably feel that he is a head lower than others. But after thinking about it again, if nothing else, at least my father was a lot more comfortable, and if I thought about it this way, some small complaints in my heart gradually dissipated.
Staggered planning is the eternal project of the party, Zhou Fangyuan is also a big boss no matter what, so everyone will persuade when they drink, but they don't dare to persuade hard, what if you don't drink, you will never say it, that would be too stupid.
The dinner place is in the welcome building, a more famous hotel in Beitong City, characterized by the decoration is very general, but the food is super delicious, and the leaders of the city often appear here, it is said that the boss here is very energetic in the local area, whether it is or not, Zhou Fangyuan doesn't care so much, anyway, he came here for dinner, not for anything else.
Today's dinner party is for both men and women, but everyone tacitly agreed that they didn't bring their families, that is, boyfriends or girlfriends.
Zhou Fangyuan knew that they were taking care of their mood, in fact, to be honest, Zhou Fangyuan didn't care about this, but everyone took the initiative to do it, and he didn't say anything, let alone be grateful for it, after all, this is not a problem.
Chatting while drinking, after three rounds of wine and five flavors, someone proposed to sing, and then everyone looked at Zhou Fangyuan, waiting for his decision.
"Look at what I'm doing!
Zhou Fangyuan also drank a little too much today, of course, he is still very sober, but alcohol is on the brain, and people are just a little excited, far less quiet than on weekdays.
"Zhou Fangyuan, you ......"
Ma Zhengwei looked at Zhou Fangyuan with some hesitation.
"Of course I'll go too!"
Zhou Fangyuan said as a matter of course.
"So what are you waiting for, let's go!"
A group of people walked towards the mythical KTV not far away.
KTV is something that no one should know. KTV originated in Fuso, from the early 3-person walking band in the tavern to karaoke, karaoke is the meaning of "empty" in Japanese, and ok is English ORCHESTRA - The pronunciation of the first two words of the symphony band, the Fuso people like all kinds of words, and then they combine these two words to call karaoke, that is, the meaning of the unmanned band, and later spread to the treasure island, put karaoke in the room and then named KTV, K is the first word of karaoke, TV is the last two words of MTV, and the combination is KTV.
In the 90s of the 20th century, it should be the time when karaoke was the most popular, but it also went through a series of evolutions.
In the early days, Zhou Fangyuan still remembered that when he was a child, he had seen someone push a karaoke for a mobile business, it had two microphones and a cash box, and if you didn't put the money in, the machine would not play accompanying music, and the microphone would not work. This is very similar to the situation when Fuso first introduced karaoke. Later, during the period when the design of the venue imitated Fuso changed from open to box-style, due to the high price and high enjoyment, in addition to business gatherings and negotiations, ordinary people chose to purchase a karaoke when economic conditions permitted. However, in recent years, home karaoke machines have been shelved, and karaoke parlors in the city have developed into mass sales.
As the trend of the Hari people began to prevail, this OK wind blew into Takayo Island in the late 70s of the 20th century and was officially translated as karaoke. Xiangjiang, the mainland, and Southeast Asia have basically inherited the style of the treasure island, mainly in the form of KTV. At first, Takakushima completely imitated the Japanese design of open spaces, but it didn't work out well.
As a result, some Baodao businessmen combined the original box-type small audio-visual center with it, and after improvement, there was a box-based KTV. You can enjoy the picture and sing at the same time, and you can dance and dance without interfering with each other. After decades of development, karaoke is more than just a place to sing, and nowadays karaoke seems to be a derogatory term. After 1996, with the intervention of more abundant entertainment methods such as bars and D halls, karaoke lost its original dominance in the world, and these four words are rarely seen on the door signs of entertainment venues. However, karaoke is not willing to withdraw from the historical stage, it is constantly changing its business model, with KTV, CLUB, hotel private rooms, and mass sales KTV, and the face of salted fish has been turned over again and again.
And here in Beitong, KTV has only become popular in the past two years, has there been before, but very little, why, because of the Beitong City at that time, social security was chaotic, such as KTV, it is inevitable that the three religions and nine streams will gather here, and fights and brawls are not uncommon all day long, and over time, it has left the infamy of "chaotic place" in the hearts of ordinary people. Especially since there are a lot of tattoo people in it.
In fact, tattoos have long existed in China, and even in ancient times, and tattoos are just a kind of ornament to be precise, just like bracelets and necklaces, theoretically there is no difference. In foreign countries, tattoos are even more common. But the country is different, to consider the national situation, for the people in China, tattoos are not a thing that can be accepted by the public. Even if you are a good person, once you get a tattoo, many people will subconsciously feel that you are not a good thing as soon as they see you for the first time. You may feel wronged and wronged, but what can be done? This is the case with the national conditions, and the vast majority of ordinary people think so, and the first image is not good, so do you need to talk about anything else?
So there are many such people, and KTV is not the place where good children should go for a long time.
Until the past two years, the society has further developed, and gradually, the common people are more able to accept KTV, although there will be occasional fights and brawls, but after all, it is only a very few.
The gossip is far away.
A group of people, who came to KTV, sang for a while and went out shopping, leaving a group of men, you look at me, I look at you, and in the end, Ma Zhengwei suddenly laughed twice.
"Brothers, let's find a few people to sing with us. ”
So many people showed expressions of approval, and noisily said that they called a few over, Zhou Fangyuan was not a maverick this time, and he was not ready to do anything special, anyway, it was just singing, he nodded, ready to follow the crowd.
