In his previous life, Li Dong had never done business by himself, and he didn't know how difficult it was until he really did business.

The renovation of the mall has begun, and Yangding finally offered 1.1 million, and Li Dong agreed after thinking about it.

If you want to open a large supermarket, it is useless to decorate the light, apply for approval of various qualification certificates, industrial and commercial registration, purchase channels, employee recruitment, personnel management......

Li Dong is going crazy after this big stall, and this can not be solved just with money.

Just one certificate application made Li Dong dizzy, business license, organization code certificate, tax registration certificate, health license, food circulation license, tobacco retail business license......

When he saw the series of qualification applications, Li Dong completely gave up the idea of doing it himself.

If it goes on like this, people don't say that they are tired and crazy, anyway, don't think about the college entrance examination.

Yangding said that the decoration could be completed in two months, and when the smell was dispersed, it should be open in early August.

But Li Dong has nothing now, and it is unrealistic to expect him to play a big supermarket alone.

Without too much hesitation, Li Dong now just wants to find a professional manager to help him handle everything, and it is best to go to those large supermarket chains to poach a few managers.

Of course, it is not so easy to poach people, not only is it a matter of money, but also the management without development prospects and brains will not change jobs at will.

Li Dong is now in Pingchuan, and if he wants to find a suitable management, he can only hope to come to a big city like the provincial capital.

……

Light Lift Cafe.

Li Dong made an appointment to meet with the headhunting consultant he had contacted earlier.

The woman sitting opposite Li Dong was in her thirties, dressed in standard professional attire, and was holding a stack of materials in her hand to introduce something to Li Dong.

"Wu Qibo, male, 48 years old, deputy manager of the logistics department of China Resources Vanguard Pingchuan Branch......"

"Liu Yuan, male, 44 years old, deputy manager of the purchasing department of RT-Mart Pingchuan Branch......"

"Sun Tao, male, 34 years old, deputy general manager of Carrefour Pingchuan Branch......"

"Wait!"

Li Dong interrupted the other party's words, and said with some surprise: "Miss Yang, this Sun Tao is the vice president of the Pingchuan branch?"

Yang Qing understood what Li Dong meant, and explained: "Yes, we also contacted with the attitude of trying, but I didn't expect Manager Sun to be very interested after listening to it and wanted to talk to you." ”

Li Dong grinned, there was no surprise, but doubted: "He is the vice president of the provincial capital of a world-renowned store, and he is willing to jump to a private supermarket in a county-level city to become the boss, did I hear it wrong or did you say it wrong?"

Other people Li Dong can also understand, he is a little older, and he is only the vice president of the department, and the future development space is limited, Li Dong's price is not low, and it is not surprising that he is interested.

But Sun Tao is only in his thirties, and now he has become the vice president of Carrefour Pingchuan, not to say too much, it should not be difficult to become the boss of a certain region in a few years.

Such a person would be interested in the general manager of a supermarket in a county town?

Li Dong couldn't understand, and said bluntly: "It's okay to meet, but Miss Yang still focuses on a few other people, my family has a small business, so I can't invite a big god." ”

Even if such a person comes, how much is the appropriate annual salary?

Li Dong didn't dare to think that he wouldn't be working for others at that time, that was not what he wanted.

To be honest, there is also some fuss, he is not a chain operation now, there is only one storefront, and there is no need for such high-end talents.

Yang Qing nodded and said that she understood, in fact, she was not optimistic about Li Dong, but if people wanted to meet and talk, she couldn't stop her.

"Then Mr. Li will meet Sun Tao first?"

"Okay, you call him, if we have time in the afternoon, we will meet, and the others will talk after I finish meeting Sun Tao." ”

"Okay, I'll help you get in touch right away!" Yang Qing was very straightforward and began to call Sun Tao on the spot.

Li Dong listened silently on the side, and after a few minutes, Yang Qing said: "Mr. Li, he agreed, waiting for you at Nanhu Teahouse at three o'clock in the afternoon!"

……

Nanhu Teahouse, Li Dong came many times when he met customers in his previous life.

I met Sun Tao in casual clothes very smoothly, and he looked younger than his actual age, at most thirty years old.

Sun Tao's first impression of Li Dong was very good, with a gentle temperament, not like a businessman, but a little like some university lecturers.

Seeing Li Dong, even if Li Dong looked very young at a glance, Sun Tao did not lose his temper, got up and smiled lightly: "Mr. Li, please take a seat." ”

"Mr. Sun, you can sit down too. Li Dong nodded and sat down, and said straight to the point: "I don't know what Mr. Sun wants to talk to me about?"

Sun Tao smiled and understood: "Don't misunderstand Mr. Li, I know that Mr. Li must have doubts, and I will explain to Mr. Li next." ”

"Listen up!"

Li Dong didn't say much, and he didn't have anything to say.

If Sun Tao is really willing to come, the salary is not too outrageous, and Li Dong is not happy to invite such a talent.

As for what kind of experience, professionalism, can Carrefour, a foreign-funded enterprise, get to this point, can you have any real skills?

"Since Mr. Li is willing to listen to me, that's good, I'll only say three points......"

"First, I am from Dongping, and my parents have always been in Dongping. ”

Li Dong nodded, indicating that he agreed with this reason.

Being close to home to take care of his parents is the reason, but it is definitely not the main reason, otherwise with Sun Tao's income, he can take his parents to Pingchuan to support.

"Second, the general manager of Carrefour Pingchuan is 52 years old this year and is ready to retire in Pingchuan all the time, and some senior leaders in East China are a little dissatisfied with me......"

Without saying it thoroughly, Li Dong understood what he meant, the boss occupied the position and did not leave, and he wanted to transfer the leader but did not agree, so there was no room for growth.

This is indeed important, but it is not enough to convince Li Dong.

Li Dong asked, "Tesco, Wal-Mart, RT-Mart...... These are well-known stores at home and abroad, not to belittle myself, I ask myself if I don't have the ability to compare with them, why do you fancy me?"

"Li is always an understanding person, so I don't hide it. ”

Sun Tao sat up straight, and said: "Originally, I took a fancy to the market of the county-level city, and wanted to take advantage of the fact that the hypermarket has not yet entered the market, and take the lead in starting my own business to seize the market, which coincides with Mr. Li." ”

Li Dong nodded, there are many people who can understand this, but few take action.

One is that there is no capital, and the other is uncertainty about the future, not everyone is sure that they can fight hard against those hypermarkets.

"The next and most important point I want to say is that if I had chosen to start my own business three months ago instead of working for someone else. ”

"However, three months ago, there was an emergency situation in my family, and all my savings were exhausted, and even the house in Pingchuan was mortgaged. ”

"And I also borrowed 800,000 yuan with my friends, and I am confident that I can pay it off quickly. But there is no money to open a supermarket by myself, and in a few years, those hypermarkets will definitely settle in small cities, and the opportunity will be fleeting, and I am afraid that there will be no place for me at that time. ”

Sun Tao's face was a little lost after saying this, but it was quickly replaced by self-confidence.

Li Dong looked at the confident man in front of him and had to sigh, he was a talent, but unfortunately there was no room to play.

This year, he was penniless and still owed 800,000 foreign debts, but he was still so indifferent and confident, convinced that he had the strength to earn 800,000 yuan soon, which ordinary people can't do.

And Sun Tao's vision is also very good, if there is no accident, he opens his own supermarket, with so many years of experience and level, it is not impossible to rise to a multi-billionaire in a few years.

But it's a pity that he doesn't have the capital now, and if he waits for a few more years to rise in hypermarkets, as he said, there will be no room for survival when he creates his own small brand.

"Mr. Sun is very honest, but ......" Li Dong shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "It's a pity that I can't invite Mr. Sun." ”

"Why?"

Sun Tao was a little incredulous, he really had this will, and he was 100% confident that Li Dong would not refuse.

But Li Dong refused, to be honest, he thought that he was willing to give in, why didn't Li Dong look down on him?

Li Dong looked at the man who was a little out of shape and smiled, took a sip of tea and said, "Seriously, Mr. Sun is very good, and the excellent makes me a little uneasy." ”

"Let me tell you this, I need a professional manager, not an ambitious entrepreneurial dreamer. How can I trust a supermarket with assets of several million yuan to be in charge of a manager who wants to leave at any time?"

"What I need is to be down-to-earth and not have a strong pioneering spirit. ”

"If my supermarket isn't on the right track, and you have to leave because you have other opportunities, I'll have a lot of trouble at that time. ”

"And I'm ......" Li Dong pointed to himself and smiled: "What I am most afraid of is trouble, I like to do it once and for all." ”

Sun Tao finally understood why Li Dong refused, he wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything.

said that he was willing to help Li Dong work for the rest of his life?

Just kidding, if he really had this heart, he might as well just stay at Carrefour.

Why did he change jobs, isn't it because there is no room for growth, plus he is unwilling to go down!

"Thank you, Mr. Li, for listening to me!" Sun Tao understood that today's conversation was almost over, and got up to leave.

Li Dong knocked lightly on the table, hesitated a little, and only said after a while: "Mr. Sun, I have a suggestion I don't know if you want to hear it?"

Sun Tao's eyes lit up slightly, and he sat down again and said, "Mr. Li, please speak!"

"To be honest, I am a little unwilling to miss a talent like Mr. Sun. Let me tell you a plan you can consider......"

"I can hire Mr. Sun in the form of dividends, and Mr. Sun can get 10% of the net profit in each of the first three years. If Mr. Sun can do it for three years, these dividends can be turned into fixed shares, and then Mr. Sun will be the boss, no different from starting his own business. ”

Sun Tao's eyes narrowed, lowered his head and began to ponder.
