Lai Xiaohu, who has returned to normal life, stays in the school honestly when there are classes in school. And if he doesn't have a class, he will go back to the company to deal with things.

Every year in June, the month of restlessness is a time of restlessness for the new year graduates, who will leave the campus where they have lived for four years, and most of them will have to step out into society. People who have learned in four years are naturally full of confidence, while people who have mixed up with four years of university life tend to show an anxious state of mind at this time.

In the face of the students and friends who are about to leave the campus and the students and friends who are about to separate, there are obviously more parties among the graduates, and it is common to see a group of people walking outside the campus with a case or two of beer in their hands. When they finished drinking, they came back with each other's arms, and they could often be heard shouting and venting in the early hours of the morning. When the time came to daytime, a group of people had to pick up their spirits to prepare for their graduation.

Lai Xiaohu has not experienced the graduation season in these two lives, and in the previous life, he left the campus in his junior year and never came back. And the circumstances of this life have changed, and he has come back again, but still from his junior year. To some extent, Lai Xiaohu can't feel the emotions of those graduates, because he will stay here even after graduation, and he doesn't have to worry about his future future.

Underneath the dormitory, a group of seniors occupied one side of the road, setting up stall after stall under the willow tree with what they had bought for four years, and selling everything they didn't want and couldn't take away. Every year in the school's jumping market, these graduates will leave their traces in the school through this method.

"When I graduate, I really want to experience what it's like to graduate." Looking at the senior students outside, Lai Xiaohu said.

"You'll be able to experience it next year." Zeng Hua patted Lai Xiaohu, "Maybe we will be like them when the time comes." ”

"Maybe." glanced at Zeng Hua. Lai Xiaohu said in a low voice.

Away from the campus, away from the melancholy atmosphere created by the graduates. Lai Xiaohu took a taxi to the company, and now it was just noon, and he hadn't eaten when he left school. When he arrived at the company, he happened to have an extra meal bought by the company, and Lai Xiaohu solved his food and clothing problem by the way.

He was going to spend the afternoon in the company, and now he had formulated an expansion plan for the company, and the whole person couldn't rely on Zhang Yinghao for everything like before, and he had to increase his working hours appropriately.

When working in the afternoon, Zhang Ying took a list and handed it to Lai Xiaohu. "This is the ranking of the economic strength of major cities in the country last year."

After speaking, Zhang Ying waited for Lai Xiaohu to finish reading, and continued: "This time, the number of stores we will open across the country is tentative. However, Yaqiao and I probably discussed two principles of site selection. ”

"Well, tell me about it." Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu put down the form, looked at Zhang Ying and said.

"The first priority is to prioritize the local economy." Zhang Ying said: "After we roll out our sales network across the country. At that time, it is bound to adjust and rise in the price again. Originally, the price of vegetables is not cheap now, and it will be even more expensive after the adjustment. When the time comes, the price of vegetables is so high. If the local economy doesn't work. Our bottom line will also suffer. For example, in the three cities where we now have branches, Shanghai is the first in the national economy, Beijing is the second, and even Jincheng is the fifth in the country. These cities have a very developed economy, and the total economic volume as well as per capita is very high. In cities like these, we can open a few more local branches. And like other cities in the top ten or twenty, those cities may not be able to afford five or six branches. At that time, you only need to open two or three branches. In a city like Thirty Miles away, it is expected that only one branch will be needed in the short term. ”

The core of the first principle Zhang Ying said is that the local economy that first opened a branch must be developed and ranked high in the national urban economic rankings. Secondly, these cities should also be graded, and cities like Shanghai can be regarded as the first tier of cities. These cities are the most economically developed cities in the country, and when the time comes, you can open five or six branches or even more in these cities.

And slightly worse than the first tier are the second tier cities, these cities are slightly worse than the first tier in terms of economic affordability, and the market can probably accommodate two or three branches. The second is the third-tier cities, which often only need to open a branch to meet the needs of the market.

Lai Xiaohu nodded in understanding, "What about the second principle?" ”

"The first principle is mainly based on the degree of economic development," Zhang Ying said, "but after reading the list above, you will find that China's economic development is seriously uneven." In addition to the capital and Jincheng, most of the cities above are southeast coastal cities. These cities are relatively developed, but geographically speaking, they are mostly concentrated in the southeast coastal area. And you can see that some of the provincial capitals in the Midwest and the north above are relatively low, and many of them are in the forties and fifties. Although these cities are not as economically developed as the previous ones, they are also very important, and as provincial capitals, these cities have the function of radiating to the surrounding cities. It has a great effect on expanding our influence. ”

"From the perspective of economic development, we need to focus on the southeast coastal market. From the perspective of national layout and long-term development, we cannot ignore the provincial capitals in the central and western regions. Although they are ranked relatively low, they still need to be taken seriously. ”

According to the two principles mentioned by Zhang Ying, when selecting the market, one needs to select those economically developed cities, and the other needs special care for those provincial capitals.

"However, there are a few cities that need to be temporarily excluded from our list." After reading the list in detail again, Lai Xiaohu suddenly said to Zhang Ying.

"Which cities?" When Zhang Ying heard this, she hurriedly asked.

"Those cities in the west and north of Xinjiang." Lai Xiaohu looked at Zhang Ying and said unhurriedly. This decision was also suddenly remembered by Lai Xiaohu. With a few years of experience more than Zhang Ying, Lai Xiaohu knows that these two places will be chaotic in the next few years, although the local market is also a piece of fat, but for Lai Xiaohu. That kind of environment is not suitable for a store like his for the time being. Maybe you can think about it when it stabilizes later.

"Okay." Although Zhang Ying didn't know the situation in those places in the next few years, Lai Xiaohu said that she understood Lai Xiaohu's thoughts in her heart, and she didn't say anything about it, and acquiesced to Lai Xiaohu's suggestion.

After discussing with Lai Xiaohu for a while, Zhang Ying took the things and left, and Lai Xiaohu turned on the computer and opened the map after Zhang Ying left. Looking at the map of the whole of China, Lai Xiaohu thought that if the expansion went smoothly this time, then most of the country would have his Lai Xiaohu branches. Moreover, for Zhang Ying's suggestion to take into account various local and provincial capitals in the country just now, Lai Xiaohu is the most in favor. Because only he knows that what he can sell in the future is definitely not just those vegetables, and he will develop more varieties in the future. As long as it can establish a sales network in all provinces across the country. It's equivalent to having a channel all over the country. This is very important for the rollout and promotion of new products in the future.

"But these two places?" Looking at the special administrative districts on the map, Lai Xiaohu thought in his heart that it would be good if he could open branches in these two places. He asked Zhang Ying about this before, but Zhang Ying later told him that the procedure of opening branches in these two places was more troublesome, so he was temporarily excluded by Zhang Ying. Despite this, Lai Xiaohu did not give up on these two places. When it comes to economic development. These two cities are definitely on par with the top cities in the interior. More critically, the per capita income here is higher. They also have a higher spending power per capita.

"I'll have to take a look at these two places when I'm free." The most rear. Lai Xiaohu, who was staring at the map of the two places, thought in his heart.

It is not an easy time to open a branch, especially this time there are more provinces to open a branch, and the cross-regional is relatively wide, Lai Xiaohu does not dare to blindly take people to the whole country to stake the land, and must go through a detailed layout before acting. And this work is mainly in charge of Zhang Ying.

In the afternoon, everyone was busy again, and even Lai Xiaohu was not easy in the afternoon. Ran twice in the urban area as well as in the planting base in the suburbs of Jincheng.

And when she went back, Zhang Ying complained directly to Lai Xiaohu, "I can't be busy now." "Yes, in Lai Xiaohu's company. It's true that the manpower is relatively small, and everyone's work is relatively simple in normal times, so they can barely cope. But once you get busy, you're all going to be too busy. Especially when it's time to prepare for an expansion like now, the sudden amount of extra preparation is completely overwhelming.

"And I haven't gone to all parts of the country to inspect it yet," Zhang Ying said, "When the time comes, if you think about dozens of places across the country, we won't have enough people at all." ”

"Let's hire someone." Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu thought about it for a while and said, "This time, let's recruit people first and then open a branch." And now it's the graduation season, and I don't know how many graduates are looking for jobs across the country, so it's easier to recruit people at this time. And there are a large number of applicants, so you can also try to pick out enough good ones. ”

Now that it has been extended to the recruitment process, after a discussion between Lai Xiaohu, Zhang Ying and Song Yaqiao when they were having dinner at home, the recruitment matter was finally determined.

Recruitment, Roca Supermarket must once again carry out large-scale recruitment. And this recruitment will be an unprecedented recruitment in the history of Roca Supermarket.

The whole recruitment will be divided into two parts, the first part is the preparation of the recruitment of the local working groups. This time, there are more places to open branches across the country, and Zhang Ying and Lai Xiaohu alone will definitely not be able to play. After everyone's discussion, Lai Xiaohu and the others decided to prepare working groups in various places. In principle, each province sets up a working group for market expansion. Then determine the number of cities in each province that need to open branches and the number of branches, and then determine the number of personnel in each working group.

The role of this working group is to replace the role of Lai Xiaohu and Zhang Ying in Shanghai and Beijing respectively, and the working group needs to investigate the market in the area of responsibility and determine the address of the store. At the same time, they are responsible for the pre-decoration and preparation of the store, the recruitment and training of personnel. Of course, the main thing is that when a new store opens in the area in charge, these people automatically become the main regional leaders in their local area.

In principle, the staff of these working groups is limited to the outstanding employees of each region and branch. At the same time, appropriate external recruitment will be carried out. It is expected that after the transfer of these working groups, a large number of vacancies will be created in Jincheng, Shanghai and other places. Therefore, for the positions they stayed, they also need to be recruited and supplemented in a timely manner.

This is the first round of recruitment, and the main thing is to properly fill the gaps in the working group and the large number of vacancies that will arise at that time. Recruitment at this stage is also mainly concentrated in Jincheng, Shanghai and Beijing.

And the second phase of recruitment is the focus of this recruitment. After the regional working groups have been identified. These teams will recruit from all over the country to the place they are responsible for, and they will determine and be responsible for the preparation of new stores and the number of labor gaps required for resumes in the region. This recruitment will probably involve 500 to 600 jobs, which is definitely the largest recruitment carried out by Lai Xiaohu and his team, and it is expected that there will not be such a large-scale recruitment in the future Roca supermarket. In the future, even if there is recruitment, it will be a simple tinkering, and the replenishment of personnel will only be carried out if an employee resigns or is dismissed.

"This time there seems to be more work." After thinking about it, Lai Xiaohu thought about it and said to the two girls, "But in order to be easier in the future, I can only suffer a little in the early stage." ”

The preparatory work in the early stage will take a lot of time, and the gathering in Lai Xiaohu's class has quietly come. As the time of the meeting approaches. The contact between people is becoming more and more frequent. Even Lai Xiaohu, many former classmates have called him in the past few days.

As for his contact information, it was naturally leaked by Tang Gaoqiang in the group, and everyone didn't have Lai Xiaohu's contact information before, so they couldn't make a phone call if they wanted to. Now after Tang Gaoqiang leaked Lai Xiaohu's contact information, those classmates who had a good relationship with Lai Xiaohu before called Lai Xiaohu one after another.

It's been almost three years. Lai Xiaohu heard the phone calls of these old classmates again, and his heart was very touched and warm. Of course, there are also feelings. Imagine him in his previous life. Thinking about him now, he is really very different.

Being able to be hung in by so many classmates, Lai Xiaohu is naturally very happy. After the last, Lai Xiaohu directly took a big bite and covered all the consumption of all the students who came to Jincheng this time. To this end, Lai Xiaohu also booked a room in a high-end hotel in the city.

In the past, there were nearly forty people in Lai Xiaohu's class, seven of whom were local to Jincheng. Of course, there are urban and suburban counties. After graduation, there are still five people who stayed in Jincheng and are still in Jincheng. With the addition of seven Jincheng locals, the last twelve people are sure to come to the weekend party.

And among the remaining classmates whose homes are in other places, some of them will definitely not be able to come, after all, some of them are too far away. And some people just can't afford to take the time. Of course, Lai Xiaohu also knows the truth. Some people are afraid to come. Just like in his previous life, he was reluctant to participate in class reunions, when he was in school, he was the pride of the sky, but after graduation, he found that he was getting worse and worse than his classmates, so he naturally didn't want to be compared with everyone. In the end, I threw out these classmates who couldn't come for various reasons, and there were thirteen people in the field who explicitly agreed to come on the weekend.

The total number of people added up is twenty-five people. However, when the party was held that day, I didn't know how many people would come, because Lai Xiaohu had made it clear that everyone must bring their families if they have them. In addition to parties, I also brought my family for a tour. Of course, this family is limited to the other half, and if you bring your parents, it will be funny at that time.

Lai Xiaohu didn't know which of these classmates was already married, and who was still single, so he didn't bother to count them, so he directly booked twenty-five rooms in the hotel for the weekend according to the principle of one room for one classmate. Because one thing he can be sure of is that he hasn't heard of a pair in their class.

Tang Gaoqiang was probably the first one to come, and on Friday, he called Lai Xiaohu and asked Lai Xiaohu to pick him up at the airport. Originally, Tang Gaoqiang was one of the organizers of this event, and he was also the first person to contact Lai Xiaohu, so after the party was decided, he had already shouted that he must be the first to come.

For this reason, Tang Gaoqiang also took a day off in the unit. Then on Friday morning, he took his wife Murong Jing directly on a plane from Xijing City to Jincheng.

Tang Gaoqiang's flight arrived around noon, and Lai Xiaohu didn't go out after having dinner at home in the morning, and waited until after ten o'clock, and drove directly to the airport.

After arriving, the time was about the same, and after waiting for about 20 minutes, I received a call from Tang Gaoqiang saying that he had gotten off the plane. After turning for a long time, Tang Gaoqiang finally saw Lai Xiaohu at the gate of the airport, and after rushing up and giving Lai Xiaohu a big hug, Tang Gaoqiang asked in the first sentence: "How do I feel that the airport is different from before?" I almost got lost after turning around for a long time. ”

"The airport has been expanding since last year, and after a year, it certainly doesn't look the same. If you look at it in another two years, it's going to be even more different. Hearing this, Lai Xiaohu said. He knew that Tang Gaoqiang used to fly to and from school and home when he was in school, so he was very familiar with the airport in Jincheng. (To be continued......)
