Chapter 154: Price Increase
The review work is going on, Lin Fan and Dong Rui are non-stop, and it took three days to just complete ten counties, of which Lin Fan has determined, 6 have passed the site selection review, and 4 have not met the requirements.
After Lin Fan passed the 6 companies that met the requirements, he happily and couldn't wait to go to Zhonghai City to sign a cooperation agreement with "Sifan Trading Co., Ltd.", and paid a deposit of 1 million for the goods. In order to be able to seize this "business opportunity" that is sure to make money without losing money, they have hollowed out their minds, and even did not hesitate to give sky-high transfer fees to tackle the shops within the scope of Lin Fan's circle.
At 7 o'clock in the evening, in a hotel in Yanliu County, Lin Fan and Dong Rui ordered a few side dishes and were drinking, there was a TV in the hall, and Lin Fan occasionally watched TV while eating.
Suddenly, a rolling subtitle advertisement caught his attention: "The famous domestic women's shoe brand 'Lifusi' invites all counties to join, join the hotline"
For this brand, Lin Fan did not pay too much attention, from the initial knowledge of the other party's investment of 20 million to enter the women's shoes market when he was cautious, to after a period of time to find that the other party is like a headless fly, can not find the direction of development when the surprise, and then to now, Lin Fan has far surpassed the "Daming Trade" in terms of liquidity and store scale, not to mention that "Sifan Trade" has the incomparable brand superiority of "Daming Trade", refined management, and forward-looking.
It can be said that today Lin Fan no longer regards "Daming Commerce" as a heavyweight opponent with himself, in this magnificent sea of commerce, his ship has braved the wind and waves to chase more ambitious goals; The ship of "Daming Commerce" is full of fuel, but because there is no good helmsman and no good team, it is always moving forward at the starting point.
But after all, it is a retail company currently dedicated to the women's shoe market, and Lin Fan will always keep a certain eye on it and understand its development trends.
"Dong Rui, you write down this phone number and go to consult the joining conditions tomorrow." Lin Fan pointed to the franchise hotline on TV and said to Dong Rui.
Dong Rui said: "Okay, minister, I'll call tomorrow when I go to work and ask." ”
Lin Fan's phone rang suddenly, and after reading the call prompt, Lin Fan smiled, Xu Jianyang still couldn't hold back, and took the initiative to find himself, it seems that the other party is planning to make concessions.
Answering the phone, Lin Fan smiled and said, "Hello, Mr. Xu!" ”
After a brief chat, Dong Rui found that Lin Fan's face had changed, he frowned, holding the microphone to listen to what was being said over there, obviously some of the other party's words made Lin Fan a little surprised.
Xu Jianyang was not willing to take the initiative to lower the cooperation conditions as Lin Fan guessed, but informed Lin Fan that if Lin Fan wanted this store, the last time the condition was no longer good, and the price must be increased, 750,000 yuan / year, 3 years of one-time payment, otherwise the store will be rented to others.
Lin Fan's house talked a lot, and as soon as he heard Xu Jianyang's tone, he knew that other merchants had intervened, and they must have quoted Xu Jianyang, and it was this price that gave Xu Jianyang the confidence to argue with himself, and greatly increased the conditions for cooperation.
He couldn't figure out for a while, which idiot merchant would quote such a high rent to Xu Jianyang, and it was a one-time payment for three years, so he pondered for a while and asked: "Mr. Xu, can you reveal which brand the other one is talking about?" ”
Xu Jianyang said: "It's inconvenient to say this, but I can tell you that the other party also makes women's shoes." ”
Xu Jianyang didn't remind Lin Fan with good intentions, but deliberately general, do you Lin Fan rent it? If you don't rent, I'll rent the house to your competitors to hit you.
Shoes? Lin Fan's eyes couldn't help but glance at the TV again, he had a strong premonition that the one who competed with him for Xu Jianyang's shop was "Daming Commerce", they were forced by the strong pressure on their side, eager to open the market, and urgently needed to open a store on the pedestrian street, in this way, it is easy to explain that the other party will pay a high price to get a store in Zhonghai Pedestrian Street.
Lin Fan knew well that Xu Jianyang used himself to compete with competing products to raise prices, so as to reap the benefits of fishermen.
He sneered, Xu Jianyang's idea was too taken for granted, even if he was to fight against competing products, it was impossible to compete with the other party for rent in a shop without restraint, this is a practice of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred, and the wise man does not do it. You can snatch this shop today, but what about tomorrow? There are so many shops in Zhonghai Pedestrian Street, is it that every store negotiated by "Daming Commerce" has to compete for house prices? Can you open so many stores? Obviously not, in the end, the competitors will still open the store, and they will lose a considerable part of the profit due to the increase in rent, and will also coax the overall rent level of Zhonghai Pedestrian Street up, and the reputation in the circle is not good.
Lin Fan was a little strange, how could the news of "Daming Commerce" be so well-informed, I remember that my contact with Xu Jianyang was still Zhang Wu's introduction, before this, Xu Jianyang did not release any rumors of renting shops, how did they know about "Daming Commerce"? He did not suspect Sun Zhiguo because of this, although Sun Zhiguo gave Lin Fan the feeling that this person was very floating and not pragmatic, but Lin Fan never doubted his character, and did not think that he would betray the interests of the company.
This incident sounded the alarm for Lin Fan, the suspicion in his heart has been lingering, he is a little unwilling to figure it out, this store can give up, but he doesn't want similar things to happen again in the future.
After hanging up Xu Jianyang's phone, Lin Fan thought about it and picked up the phone to call Zhang Wu, after he told Zhang Wu about the situation, Zhang Wu thought for a while and said: "This matter is really strange, Lao Xu came to me yesterday morning, he talked to me about repayment, and hoped that my 3 million would be used for him for a while, he said that he would have a rent of 600,000 yuan in the near future, and he could pay me the interest first." Judging from your words, he should be quite satisfied with the conditions you give, and I have heard him say that he does not seem to have talked to anyone else, how can it change in an afternoon? ”
When Lin Fan heard this, he was even more puzzled, if according to what Zhang Wu said, at noon, Xu Jianyang was still satisfied with the conditions he gave, and he didn't talk to others, what happened to the kung fu that afternoon?
"Mr. Lin, otherwise, I'll call him, he has a request for me now, and he should consider my words."
Lin Fan knew what Zhang Wu meant, if Zhang Wu threatened him to repay the loan, Xu Jianyang estimated that he would really comply, but at the same time, it would also make him very dissatisfied with Zhang Wu and himself, so even if the store was rented, in the process of cooperation in the future, maybe Xu Jianyang would get something out one day.
Doing business, making money in harmony, Lin Fan doesn't want the store to be troublesome in the future, if that's the case, this store would rather not open, there are many shops in Zhonghai Pedestrian Street, and then choose the others, there is no need to hang yourself on this tree.
