Chapter 665: A Tooth for a Tooth
Jiang Xinwei said disapprerovingly: "If the acquisition is not successful, it is ready to make a stumbling block? Okay, then tell me, is there any way for us to obediently comply?"
Alekander was stunned for a moment and asked, "I haven't said it yet, so you're not worried at all?"
Jiang Xinwei asked rhetorically, "If I'm worried, can I stop you from doing it?...... , let's say, what are the tricks, I'll see if I can catch it. ”
Alekander said: "These tricks are all yang moves, and they are on the bright side. Because I'm going to execute it when I go back this time, I'm willing to tell you for free. ”
Jiang Xinwei said: "Okay, the yang move is the yang move, I will listen to it." ”
"First, we will increase our recruitment efforts. Hire senior managers, logistics personnel, purchasing personnel and distribution personnel with experience in supermarket operation and management with high salaries. ”
Jiang Xinwei nodded and said, "This method is good." Digging people is the only way for the development of enterprises. I like it. ”
Alekander was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you like it?" Do you know where the object we are digging up comes from?"
Jiang Xinxu smiled: "I know." If it's from overseas, you don't need to tell me. Have you already been in contact with the employees of our Xinlan supermarket?"
Alekander couldn't figure out whether Jiang Xinwei was pretending to be calm or confident, and blurted out: "Are you really not worried?
Jiang Xinxu said: "I'm afraid, how can I not be afraid? However, it's a good thing for you to raise the wages of your employees, and it's a great good thing for everyone to get rich." I'm supporting!"
Alekander obviously didn't expect Jiang Xinwei to say this, according to his thoughts, Jiang Xinwei and Leng Lan should be furious. He couldn't help asking, "Mr. Jiang, how do you deal with it?"
Jiang Xinwei was happy and said with a smile: "How to deal with it?" Sir, aren't you a little confused, you and I are in a competitive relationship, will I tell us how to deal with it?"
As he spoke, he didn't say anything to the other party, and he continued: "However, since you are doing good deeds for the benefit of your employees, I might as well tell you the response plan we have prepared." Of course, this is just my initial idea, and what will be done when the time comes, we shareholders will have to meet and discuss, and it will have to change according to the changes in your plans. But I think our plan is going to be pretty much the same as what I'm talking about now, which is that we're going to do good with you, and we're going to raise your employees' salaries as much as we want. We can't let our employees scold us and praise you, what do you say?"
Alec was so angry that he almost stood up to scold, but his demeanor was good, and he didn't scold after all, but said: "Our second plan is to discount and make profits." Wherever your supermarket opens, as long as there is our Carrefour supermarket, our prices will drop. ”
Jiang Xinwei said with a smile: "Mr. Alecand, you are really generous, you have done a great good deed just now, and now you are doing a greater good deed, I believe that your reputation will become bigger and bigger." Your corporate image will get better and better. ”
Seeing that he was still not angry, let alone nervous, Alekander couldn't help but ask again: "Mr. Jiang, what are you going to do?"
Jiang Xinwei smiled and didn't speak.
Although he didn't speak, the confidence on his face was a good indication that he didn't care.
Alecandre was very depressed in his heart, feeling that although this kid was young, the city was too deep.
In fact, Jiang Xinwei is really not too deep in the city, he just feels that he has the chance to win, what are he afraid of sitting firmly in Diaoyutai?
He didn't care about the other party's price reduction for the following reasons: first, Carrefour now does not have a few supermarkets in Huaxia, and the price reduction of their goods will not affect his stores at all. And now the supermarket is a new thing, the public like to go to the supermarket to purchase goods, all feel fresh, as long as the goods are not more expensive than the department store, as long as Carrefour and their own supermarkets are too close, they discount is not discounted, promotion is not promotion, there is not much impact on their own supermarkets, the public is still in an endless stream.
Second, Jiang Xinwei's purpose in running a supermarket is not only to rely on supermarkets to make money, but to rely on supermarkets to sell their own electrical appliances, mobile phones and other products. He is not afraid of a price war, even if the supermarket does not make a penny in the end, he still earns. Maybe everyone will reduce the price of each other and attract more consumers, and the citizens will come from the supermarket at home to buy electrical appliances and mobile phones, and they will laugh in their dreams.
Although mobile phones are in short supply now, there is no need for supermarkets to distribute goods, but he knows that the competition of mobile phones will come sooner or later, and now he must take precautions, and wait until the citizens know in their minds that Xinlan Supermarket has a good mobile phone to buy, with this reputation, mobile phones will be able to fight with competitors in the market in the future.
In addition, the supermarket has two other functions in Jiang Xinwei's mind. The first is to nurture the logistics market, especially the express market, to accumulate experience for future logistics and rapid business, occupy the market, prepare material conditions and carry out talent reserves. The second is to guide production enterprises to produce high-quality products with high standards through large-scale procurement, and reduce the fake, inferior and counterfeit goods that the market was flooded with for a period of time in the previous life.
Jiang Xinwei thinks there is a good saying: the greater the ability of people, the greater the social responsibility. Since you can have the ability to make some contributions to the quality of products in your life, you should make some contributions. Sourcing high-quality products at ideal values and excluding inferior and fake goods is just a gesture for a man with a large number of supermarkets, so why not?
Alecandre didn't know that Jiang Xinwei had thought about so many things, he saw that Jiang Xinwei was unmoved, and made a third move, he said: "Our Carrefour will sign an exclusive agreement with the supplier. Mr. Jiang, do you understand what I mean?"
Jiang Xinxu's eyes narrowed for a moment, but then opened them and said, "This trick is indeed a bit troublesome for us. However, I don't think you have enough skills at the moment. Unless you convince Wal-Mart, Metro, and our supermarket companies in China. ”
Alekander's face turned red, and he said angrily: "We have the ability to do this!"
Jiang Xinxu smiled: "Then we'll wait and see." …… Mr. Alekand, is there anything else?"
Alekander stood up angrily, and as he walked out, he said, "Jiang, you will regret it. ”
Jiang Xinwei said: "As long as my supermarket can continue to open, as long as my supermarket is not swallowed up by others, I have no regrets." Think about how your Carrefour runs. ”
As soon as Alekander and the others left, Leng Lan couldn't help but ask: "Xinwei, will they really sign an exclusive agreement with the supplier, and we won't be able to purchase goods at that time." ”
For the other two plans proposed by Alkeander, Leng Lan was not in a hurry at all.
Like Jiang Xinwei, she is not afraid of others providing employee wages to dig into the wall, and she is not too worried about the price reduction of Carrefour, which has only opened a few stores. Because Carrefour came to Huaxia to set up a supermarket, the labor cost and transportation and warehousing cost are much larger than the cost of Xinlan Trading Company, and the cost is much larger than that of the local Huaxia supermarket.
What she is afraid of is that the local supermarket merchants will reduce the price and discount regardless of the cost, but she is definitely not worried about how much money Carrefour, a foreigner company, can cut, because the reason why these gringos come to China to do business is definitely to make money, and their corporate system and the shareholders of the company will not allow them to trade at a loss for a long time.
In this case, of course she is not afraid, at most she will give a profit to the surrounding citizens.
Jiang Xinxu said confidently: "Impossible. Unless those vendors are fools. How much can he eat with a Carrefour? How could those suppliers lose us just to supply them? We are now procuring only a lot more than they do. It's pretty much the same thing that we have with them. ”
Leng Lan said: "But what if they contact other foreign supermarkets? I heard that foreigners are easy to get together. ”
Jiang Xinxu said: "Who knows, legends are legends, not necessarily true." I only know that 'the world is bustling, all for profit, the world is bustling, all for profit', foreigners and foreigners can never be monolithic. I'm sure Carrefour's board of directors wouldn't approve of supermarkets doing such a thankless task. You need to know that an exclusivity agreement is easy to say, but how difficult it is to reach such an agreement. Not to mention that they obviously have a monopoly nature in doing so, and they may be stopped by the authorities, even if they really talk to those manufacturers regardless of this, will those manufacturers not open their mouths? Manufacturers can most hope that the more people who go to their enterprises to purchase, the better, and it is better for those who purchase to fight, rush to send money to them, and compete to raise prices. ”
Leng Lan asked, "You mean that their exclusive agreement is simply a cannon?"
"If we were just a small supermarket, they might have succeeded," Jiang said. Conversely, the bigger our supermarkets, the less likely they are to succeed. At the moment, we're going to outsize theirs, and they're definitely not going to be able to do that. And they certainly weren't going to do it, otherwise they wouldn't have told us publicly, isn't that a reminder to pay attention, to be prepared?"
Leng Lan nodded and said, "You really make sense when you say that." They are threatening us, thinking they can scare us. ”
Jiang Xinwei snorted and said, "The most powerful time for the atomic bomb is when it is placed on the launch stand. Once it's launched, there's no point in it. ”
Leng Lan said: "Then let's go back to the office, I haven't finished reporting yet." ”
Jiang Xinwei thought for a while and said, "Since people come to buy us, we should also go out and buy others." ”
Leng Lanle was happy and said with a smile: "You are still ready to return an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth." Who are you going to buy? You don't want to buy Carrefour, do you?"
