Chapter 162: Persistence is Victory
。 After Yucheng officially served as the president of the Fengfang branch of Jiaoli Bank, the first word of the report came to the Fang family's restaurant, and it happened that Fang Mingyuan was also here. "Then I'm here to congratulate Uncle Gu on his ascension!" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile. After these days of communication, Fang Mingyuan found that Gu Yucheng was a person who was more nostalgic and full of dedication, and he was not contaminated with many bad problems in business and officialdom. This is also the main reason why Weishenme, Fang Mingyuan will inform him in advance that he may have to face the rush wind. With Gu Yucheng's ascension, it also means that the Fang family has a strong backing in the banking industry in Qinxi Province! In Fang Mingyuan's future plans, the demand for funds is very considerable, such a huge demand for funds, just relying on Fang Mingyuan's own accumulation, it will take a long time, Fang Mingyuan can't afford to wait, and he doesn't want to wait. The crises in his previous life were rare opportunities for Fang Mingyuan to strengthen himself, as he continued to grow older, there were already many opportunities that he had to give up because of his lack of strength, but with Gu Yucheng's support, there was no doubt that Fang Mingyuan would be much more relaxed in terms of raising funds. It is believed that in the years to come, Bank of Communications will become the most important lender of the Fang family.
Of course, this result also made Gu Yucheng admire Fang Mingyuan with admiration, it was precisely because of Fang Mingyuan's secret help that he was able to complete the road that would have taken him a few years to complete his career in less than half a year. In the years that followed, as Fang Mingyuan expected, Gu Yucheng's needs for the other party's family have always been a priority in terms of loans, even the instructions of the provincial leaders have not changed this.
"Fang Shao is laughing at me, this is not a blessing for Fang Shao, if it wasn't for Fang Shao's reminder in advance, how could I make new contributions?" Gu Yucheng said sincerely, "In the future, if Fang Shao has any use for Gu Yucheng, I will never refuse." ”
"Then I'll remember it! there will be a lot of trouble for Uncle Gu in the future, when the time comes, just don't annoy me!" Fang Mingyuan said with a smile.
"Guarantee special things to do, and fully support the development of Fang Shao. And I believe that Fang Shao will also bring us a good return for Bank of Communications!" He is convinced of Fang Mingyuan's economic vision. Such potential customers, whether private or public, are worth his full effort to maintain. In the years that followed, the Fang family was always the most high-quality customer and shareholder of Bank of Communications, which was the envy of other banks.
"Uncle Gu really has confidence in me. Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but laugh dumbly.
"Fang Shao, in your opinion, when will this rush to end?" Gu Ancheng changed his head and got to the point. He can be said to be in danger now, if he can't handle the follow-up affairs, although it will not affect his status, but after all, his face is gloomy. If he can achieve a brilliant result after taking office, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to his stable position.
Fang Mingyuan pondered for a moment, he still remembered that in his previous life, the government's response to this rush was quite fast. As a matter of fact, in August 1988, the National Bureau of Statistics later announced that the rate of price increase was fierce, the highest since the beginning of reform and opening up.0 Under these circumstances, the government urgently called a halt to the "price check" and carried out a comprehensive "management and rectification" of the economy, and from the fourth quarter of 1988 onwards, the interest rate on bank deposits was raised by a large margin and investment in capital construction was cut. These policies quickly brought prices under control, and the increase in the price of living expenses for urban workers dropped from 3 in the year to 3 in the old year. But at the same time, the growth of the plus is also from. The gills have dropped to about Anhui.
Although he couldn't remember it that clearly, he still had an impression of the general things. "I think it won't be long before the government will rectify this situation, about a month. Uncle Gu, in fact, you don't have to worry, the most difficult days have already passed, and the number of withdrawals from the citizens of Fengyuan will become smaller and smaller, as long as you are careful with the allocation, I can't think of anything big. Uncle Gu, I have a message for you, persistence is victory!"
"Persistence is victory!" Gu Yucheng said softly several times, a relieved smile appeared on his face. Indeed, as Fang Mingyuan said, the total amount of withdrawals made by the citizens of Fengyuan City in the past few days was compared with the first two days. It has fallen by nearly a third, and for the various savings banks of the Fengyuan branch of the Bank of Communications, the work intensity has fallen back to a near-normal level.
"By the way, Fang Shao, your Carrefour has made a big show in Qinxi Province this time? The front page of Qinxi Daily is a place where every inch of paper is gold. Fang Shao, do you have any intention of opening Carrefour to Fengyuan? In the past few days, the citizens of Fengyuan have a very good impression of you, but my ears are full of ... The fruit of the month's praise said that Fang Shao intended words. I met Gu Yucheng's proposal for Fang Shao's attention, which made Fang Mingyuan quite moved.
It has been two or three days since he returned to Pingchuan, and the 72-hour continuous operation of the Carrefour supermarket has ended. During these three days, the Carrefour supermarket received tens of thousands of Binh Tram residents, with sales exceeding five million, and more than half of the stockpiled goods in the warehouse had been sold by this time.
Fang Mingyuan also noticed that with the end of 72 hours of continuous operation, the traffic of Carrefour supermarkets began to decline, although the daily turnover is still close to one million, but it is slowly declining. Especially when the batch of 350,000 yuan of goods pulled back from Pingshui swaggered into Pingchuan County, it attracted the attention of countless people. When the vehicle was parked at the back door of the Carrefour supermarket to unload, there were still hundreds of people watching. When they found that there were still a large number of large items such as color televisions, washing machines, refrigerators, and electric fans, the cheers were clearly heard at the front door.
It can be said that this shipment has given another shot in the arm to the residents of Pingchuan County, who have already begun to calm down, and they believe that Carrefour Supermarket can fulfill its promise and have enough goods to ensure that other businesses in the county have not purchased in large quantities for a long time, and the Fang family actually shipped hundreds of thousands of yuan of goods at one time, which shows its strength. After that, three more batches of goods were shipped back, although the number was not as large as the first batch, but it further strengthened the confidence of the residents of Ping" County.
On the second day of Fang Mingyuan's return, Li Dongxing personally came to the door to discuss the huge amount of cash in the hands of Carrefour Supermarket.
Fang Mingyuan considered that even if he wanted to buy goods now, it was impossible to have such a sufficient supply of goods, and keeping this cash would not be useful for a while, so he responded with the boat. With 5 million cash in the warehouse, the presidents of the three banks immediately straightened their waists, and the staff of the savings bank no longer dragged their work in the mud and pool, and the time required for the residents of Pingchuan County to withdraw money was greatly reduced. In this way, many residents of Pingchuan County have been reflected. Withdrawals in this bank are smooth and smooth, Carrefour supermarkets are in sufficient supply, and the Fang family has also promised that there will be no price increase in a short period of time, so why do you have to join in the excitement with everyone? Those who are engaged in reselling and reselling in the county have also been quickly prosecuted by the county procuratorate and dealt with them as strictly as possible. Under the influence of several factors, the situation in Ping" County immediately stabilized and entered a virtuous circle.
Although the Fang family has always insisted on not raising prices in this process, due to the large amount of goods he purchased, the ex-factory price was several percent lower than that of ordinary people, so the cash on hand was quite abundant. Even after returning the funds of the occupied Fang Family Restaurant, there is still a considerable amount of cash in hand. Fang Mingyuan knows that with the introduction of national regulation and control policies, banks will increase their savings at high interest rates, reduce infrastructure construction, and stabilize prices, but also bring about a slowdown in economic development. Moreover, after the residents have stockpiled huge quantities of goods, the purchasing power of society will drop sharply, and the local business system will welcome a long sales off-season. At this time, it is a good time for Carrefour to expand.
"Uncle Gu, then I'm sorry for you, help us pay attention to the right store, since Gu Yucheng took the initiative to mention it, Fang Mingyuan naturally responded naturally.
In early September, the central government held a work conference and decided to carry out the "rectification and rectification" on the 6th of October, and the government officially adopted the policy of "managing the economic environment, rectifying the economic order, and comprehensively deepening the reform", and struck hard to crack down on the elements who bought and sold and piled up strange people. Officially put an end to this sudden rush to buy.
This biggest rush to buy in China since the founding of the People's Republic of China gradually subsided after more than a month. According to the later statistics of the National Bureau of Statistics, in the period of more than one month from August to September 1988, the total retail sales of commodities increased by 33 percent after deducting the factor of rising prices. Cotton cloth sales increase, TV sales on the basis of increased sales, refrigerator sales increase. Enough, the washing machine is sold enough. The backlog of materials that had caused the government a headache was almost all sold out in this wave. While the merchants have withdrawn a large amount of currency, they have also welcomed the sales cold season that has lasted for half a year!
This unsuccessful price reform has caused incalculable direct economic losses, had a serious impact on the stable social order, and has also sounded a loud alarm for future generations of price reforms."
