Chapter 0329 - New Projects

The Shinagawa Nakanobu No. 1 bookstore that Li Wenxing inspected was actually set up as the flagship store of the Ryoko bookstore chain.

But Li Wenxing never imagined that this bookstore, which exists as a benchmark for banners, would have so many flaws and deficiencies in management details and customer experience.

Of course, Li Wenxing also knows that the management mode and service level of the enterprise are also progressing with the times, and he looks at the bookstore 50 years ago with the eyes of 50 years later, and it must be unsatisfactory in all aspects.

However, even if this factor is discarded, the Zhongyan store is still very poor, and it can be said that there is no trace of detail layout.

So Li Wenxing picked thorns all the way, starting from entering the door, all the way to the back door of the bookstore, and put forward rectification orders and improvement methods, which almost made the beautiful woman store manager who followed her memorize a full three pages of manuscript paper.

This is the disadvantage of cronyism.,The manager of the beautiful woman store is Yuriko Matsuda herself.,It's her high school classmate.,Used to do Toyota car sales.,She poached to manage this bookstore.,Proper newcomer.。

Well, this is not what Li Wenxing is most dissatisfied with, he also believes in cronyism, don't talk about the eldest sister, cronies have the benefits of cronies, at least don't worry too much about the other party messing around (except for poor character).

What makes Li Wenxing feel most dissatisfied is that the bookstore's settlement method and inventory management are still backward manual records, doesn't it mean that there was an electronic code scanning and settlement system in the 70s?

As a result, he made a big joke when he asked, although everyone present also knew what the code scanner and the electronic settlement system were, but this settlement system was not popularized, and there was no situation where department stores and supermarkets were using it.

, Li Wenxing was stunned for a moment, did he travel to the wild world?

In fact, I don't complain about Li Wenxing's fuss, after being reborn, he hasn't been to a large shopping mall at all, except for the first few days when he went to a small store to buy things, and then he didn't even go to a small store, eating and using it were all done by a few women around him.

It was only at this time that everyone present told him that there was no widespread use of barcode scanning guns, how could he not be surprised?

Even Li Wenxing didn't believe in the evil and picked up the book on the shelf, looked at the back cover, and sure enough, there was no barcode on the back cover at all.

Li Wenxing's mind was confused for a while, and he simply waved everyone away, sat on the desk next to him for customers to read on the spot, and began to sort out his thoughts.

Before he was reborn, Li Wenxing was also a frequent visitor to the bookstore, not because he was studious.

Instead, he took his nephews and nephews to buy comics, study materials, extracurricular reading materials, etc., which is also one of his daily major affairs, and he has to run almost once every Sunday.

Therefore, Li Wenxing can be said to be very familiar with the settlement method of the bookstore, what book he gets, scan it at the cash register, and the receipt will come out immediately, and it is clear at a glance how much money should be paid.

Such a semi-automated electronic settlement method is quite convenient and labor-saving, and no matter how large the bookstore, unless there is a discount activity, two cashiers are still an idle horse.

The main cash register system is connected to the storage system, what books are sold every day, how many books are sold, the warehouse can be seen clearly, what books should be added, and a replenisher can do it in half a night.

Time-saving, labor-saving, scientific management, convenient bookstores, convenient customers, and the important thing is that the boss can rest assured.

Because of this settlement system, you can supervise the three links from purchase, inventory, and sales, and take inventory of the surplus once a month, so that you will know where the mistake is, the money should be deducted, and the punishment should be punished.

This seems to be a big business opportunity to become the world's largest supplier of settlement systems/equipment. Just like the wireless payment system of later generations into every street and alley of the city, it is now the golden age of the development of electronic settlement system in sales stores.

First of all, hardware, server-side hosts, client hosts, code scanners, monitors, thermal printers, etc., these things are all 'high-tech' products, which must be independently developed and have all patents.

The second is software, database, barcode generator, barcode compilation and identification, various hardware drivers, procurement, warehouse, and settlement systems for merchants.

Finally, the promotion of this system, if you don't want to play a single machine, it must also be popularized on a global scale, which is the most difficult place.

The egg hurts, it seems that with his current strength, he can't do this, it's useless to have creative ideas, and he has to have a lot of money and professional talents.

Writing and drawing in a notebook, repeatedly scrutinizing, and thinking for a while, Li Wenxing remembered something even more terrible, the above things, people have already made them, but they are not mass-produced.

It's like a barcode, someone used it 30 years ago, and even the two-dimensional code seems to have been invented five years ago, and thermal printers are estimated to have it.

If you want to make this system, there are only two ways, either to cooperate with others and share the profits, maybe people will not look down on you, or you have to bypass their 'patents'.

The key is that I don't understand the research and development of these things at all, and only know some principles......

Hey, no, isn't it just a golden finger to know the principle? Others may take a lot of crooked paths when developing these things, just like Microsoft's plague system, and looking at it from the back to the front, they have taken a crooked road that is longer than a straight road.

And you can directly provide ideas, point out the direction, and the finished product 'image', and then hand it over to a special person to study how to realize this 'conjecture'.

"Matsuda, come here......"

The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and the movements recorded in my hands became faster and faster.

After a while, Li Wenxing slapped the pen on the table, raised his head and directly greeted Yuriko Matsuda, who was standing not far away and chatting with the manager of the beautiful woman's store.

"What's the matter?"

Answering the call, look at Li Wenxing, and then look at the woman sitting next to him, Yuriko Matsuda behaved in a regular manner, she is not qualified to be jealous.

"I want you to check all the international registered printer-related technology patents, barcode-related patents, and display-related patents, especially the patents registered in Japan Island and Mi China. ”

If you just look at the relevant patent records and introductions, as long as you have connections and are willing to spend money, although these things are not public, there is still a way to find them.

Otherwise, so many scientific research institutions, infringement lawsuits alone are enough every day, because you don't know that what you are researching has been registered by others earlier.

"Also, although I hand over the management of Ryoko Chain to you, you have to at least make some achievements. I don't want it to reach the level of the old bookstores, like Maruzen Shoten, Kinokuniya, and Junkudo, I'll give you five years. ”

Despite Yuriko Matsuda's repeated statements, she only wants to be a canary secretary.

But how could Li Wenxing agree? If Yuriko can't help him in his career, he will definitely be forgotten.
