Chapter 041: Creativity
"Auntie, you're still there, Xinyan's affairs, you can take care of it." Gu Xinning shirked, "How old am I, how can I know these things."
"I think Xinning is a role model for Xinyan." Tao Yumei looked serious.
It's a pity not to be an actor, Gu Xinning lowered her head in embarrassment, and thought about it for a while before saying, "Then I'll try my best." ā
A promise is a promise, but Gu Xinning has a new rule this time, and he will not take care of everything like before. Gu Xinyan is in a rebellious period, coupled with the changes in her family, her tough methods will only make her more opposed, and maybe she will hate her.
Gu Xin would rather not let Tao Yumei be satisfied again.
She has one more advantage than Tao Yumei, that is the property of the Gu family, and she has the capital to reward Gu Xinyan.
No one is going to get over a reward.
Tao Yumei also has money, but she won't spend more on Gu Xinyan. Gu Xinning knows this better than anyone.
However, what Gu Xinning didn't expect was that Tao Yumei's money was not much in this life, and Lishun's debts were still waiting for her to get dividends from the Gu family before they could be repaid. Lishun, who won Yufeng Street, if he can make a profit, Tao Yumei's life will be a little better, if not, then he can only be tight.
Gu Xinning didn't take anyone with him, and went to the planning department by himself.
Manager Ke had already made arrangements, and gave up his desk to Gu Xinning, and she sat on the side.
"Which idea would the president want to hear first?" Manager Ke put the text that Gu Xinning had marked in front of Gu Xinning and asked.
Gu Xinning pointed to one place and said, "Let's come in order, listen to the first one first." ā
"Okay." Manager Ke didn't find out which idea Gu Xinning liked the most, but it didn't matter, she was just curious. "This is Xiao Zheng's idea, this person is a high-achieving student, and attaches great importance to rules and processes."
Gu Xinning thought of what he heard last time, when Xiao Zheng refused any intercession from others, he must follow the process and let Manager Ke sign before releasing him, which is also the reason why Manager Ke arranged Xiao Zheng in this position.
No matter how good the people at the bottom are, they can't resist Gu Xinning's admiration for Manager Ke, and being able to use the soldiers in her hands is the style of a general, and as a leader of a company, she should be the same.
Xiao Zheng's opinion is not surprising, but it has merit.
In shopping malls, there are often various activities, sometimes it is a promotional activity made by the merchants, sometimes it is an activity organized by the Gu shopping mall, and the activities are all for the purpose of increasing profits.
Managers have their own tasks every year, and in order to achieve this marketing task, in the mall, managers will also dig out products that can generate profits within the scope of their own power, and cooperate with a series of activities. Applications are only submitted to the company if they are beyond the authority of the managers, and those that do not submit the application are missed.
Often, these solutions can be used in other shopping malls to increase the profits of another.
Xiao Zheng meant that after the plan was successful, the manager should submit a proposal to the company, which might be used in other shopping malls.
"Do you feel that doing so increases the manager's workload?" Gu Xinning looked at Xiao Zheng and asked.
Xiao Zheng frowned and said seriously: "As long as the process is formulated and the process is followed in the future, how can it be said that it has increased the burden?" And it's good for every mall, although it may not be visible for a short period of time. ā
"There is something reasonable about your plan, I see it, and I do not deny that it will help the development of the mall." Gu Xinning paused, she knew that Xiao was the kind of person who would be conscious without being watched, but it didn't mean that all people were like this, especially those who were talented, and it was important for them to feel that it was not a burden, so that the plan could be implemented smoothly.
"But it's not enough, and I want to see people happy to do it. What you're talking about are small plans that managers usually make, and sometimes maybe they have a flash of inspiration and ask them to put this idea into words and hand it over to the company. Managers have a lot of ideas, and what seems to us to be simple things is different in the eyes of managers. ā
Xiao Zheng looked puzzled, in his opinion, it was nothing more than telling others about the measures of the shopping mall, which was not difficult.
Gu Xinning knocked lightly on the table, still smiling, "Let's put it this way." Managers have new ideas, new ideas, and adjustments to previous plans every day. What you propose is to wait until there are results, that is, when the managers' plans are successful, and then summarize them into writing and submit them to the company for filing, which may not be as good as the current weekly summary meeting in terms of timeliness. Speaking an idea and writing an idea are not the same workloads for managers. ā
"That doesn't seem like a good idea." Xiao Zheng frowned, seeing the disadvantages of mentioning yƬ himself.
"In addition, I will not agree to such a process." Gu Xinning continued, "Even if you can come up with a more reasonable management method, I will not agree. I asked Manager Ke, the meetings of your department have always been held when there is something to do, and not when there is nothing to do. I want to do the same in other places where I manage, if I come by the rules, I have meetings every day or every week, which is something I don't want to see, and it will be a mere formality. So in this matter, I don't want to become a formality either. Gu Xinning shook the plan in his hand.
Xiao Zheng had a bitter face: "If it is not stipulated, who will do it?" ā
"That's what I want you to solve." Gu Xinning didn't say much, she had a little idea in her head, but she didn't plan to sue Xiao Zheng, she hoped that the company would have more employees who could think about things.
Xiao Zheng, who had always been excellent and was praised by Manager Ke, walked out with a frustrated face, and waited outside to see Gu Xinning's employees looking at each other, what was this criticized for, and he was a little uneasy, especially Ye Liang, who left a bad impression yesterday.
Feeling uneasy, he felt that the seconds were like years, Ye Liang watched a person go in nervously, came out with a depressed face, and scratched his head anxiously. But Gu Xinning was sitting inside, and he didn't want to ask too much. Every time he does something, he is almost the last to hand it in, and naturally he is last.
"Ye Liang." Gu Xinning looked at the text in her hand and whispered, she also had the impression of this person, "The last one." ā
Speaking of which, Gu Xinning doesn't like people like Ye Liang very much, she thinks that men should stand up to the sky. Of course, this is just her perception, and she will not ignore Ye Liang's ability because of this, after all, Ye Liang is her employee, as long as she does a good job, nothing else matters.
Ye Liang was more nervous than everyone else when he came in, Gu Xinning guessed that it was because of yesterday's incident, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, you did something wrong, didn't Manager Ke already punish you?" I'm not going to do a second punishment. ā
Because of his restraint, when Ye Liang answered, his voice sounded much more normal, and his hands were clasped in front of him all the time.
"I have a rough idea of your intentions." Gu Xinning put down the text in his hand and said, "At present, the company's various shopping malls are independent back-end management of incoming and outgoing goods, and it takes a high cost to integrate the back-end together, have you considered this?" ā
Ye Liang hesitated for a moment and nodded: "I have thought about it, but I think this is a good time, not only for the convenience of managers, but also for the company to create another world." There is a unified background management, which can facilitate online sales. No matter what area you need, you can check the inventory of the nearest mall and call it out in time. ā
"As far as I know, our company's online sales are less than 10%." Nowadays, online sales are booming, although Gu Xinning wants to get a piece of the pie, and Gu's shopping mall also has its own e-commerce system, but as a shopping mall, consumers seem to be more willing to come to the door to choose.
"So we have to open up this fast market." Ye Liang entered the state, dancing and talking about his idea, the entity and the network go hand in hand, and the express company reached a long-term cooperation, and actively persuaded the partners of the shopping mall to participate in online sales, provide the source of goods, and some valuables, but also cooperate with insurance companies.
Gu Xin listened to Ye Liang quietly, it seemed that he had been thinking about this matter for a long time, and he already had a prototype.
With a unified back office, managers' affairs can also be solved. If a certain product in a shopping mall is not selling well, you can quickly find out which shopping mall has the best sales of this product in the background, ask the manager about the measures taken, investigate the reason, and the problem can be effectively solved.
To build such a back-office, it is necessary to have a sound system that is not cheap. It's not cost-effective to just solve things for managers. However, it is undoubtedly not an opportunity for Ku's Mall to expand by opening up new markets with online sales.
It's just that many of the brands that cooperate with Gu's shopping malls are nationally famous and even internationally famous high-end brands, and I am afraid it is difficult to convince them to participate on the shelves. These brands don't worry about consumers, and often have a variety of limited edition items that make the upper class crazy.
"Ye Liang." Gu Xinning thought about it carefully and said, "A large part of the businesses we cooperate with pay attention to a kind of identity. Some brand styles, our malls can only get one piece of each size, such brands they disdain to take this path, and even feel that there is a ** share. If our mall participates, I am afraid that it will affect the cooperation with them. ā
Ye Liang was slightly stunned, he really didn't think about it so much, but he quickly thought of a solution: "The Gu Shopping Mall has not changed, the facilities of the mall remain in the current high-end style, but if you can buy another store responsible for transporting the goods sold online, there must be merchants in the mall who are willing to participate." Many foreign high-end brands also have discount stores, which does not affect their status. ā
Gu Xinning hated to appreciate Ye Liang's quick wit, and said with a smile: "I need a detailed plan, can I do it?" ā
"Yes." Ye Liang's voice had a kind of womanly sharpness, and he couldn't feel the momentum when he spoke, but he couldn't stop being happy.
