"Xiaotian, aren't you too happy with this Howard?"

After the "interview" ended, Howard went back to the hotel first accompanied by people from Fengyun Company, while Chen Jiahua and others continued to stay in Bai Jie's office to discuss things.

"It's not dissatisfied, this Howard doesn't know much about the situation in China, he thinks too much, and he is a little naïve." Wu Tian said, "But it doesn't matter, just let him be in charge of management first, as long as he can manage the store well and the rules and regulations are good, it's fine." The work of market expansion, let Lao Cheng manage, as long as the two can cooperate well, there will be no problem. ”

Chen Jiahua nodded, and agreed with Wu Tian's decision, after all, even when he first returned to China, he was confused about doing things, and he couldn't understand the rules and regulations in China at all, and Howard, a pure foreigner, was even more unclear about the situation.

"Uncle Chen, Brother Junsheng, what's going on in the preparations?" Wu Tian turned his mouth and asked.

Fang Junsheng smiled and motioned for Chen Jiahua to speak, and Mr. Chen excitedly introduced him to Wu Tian and Bai Jie.

After Fang Junsheng's matchmaking, Jingcheng naturally expressed a warm welcome to the "patriotic Chinese" Chen Jiahua to return to China for investment, and expressed its agreement in principle with Chen Jiahua's plan to open a Western-style fast food restaurant in Beijing, but the specific approval process still needs a lot of time -- with the current environment, involving foreign capital, and it is still a joint investment by two companies from the United States and Hong Kong Island, the city is naturally more cautious, even if there is a relationship with Fang Junsheng, the approval process will not be able to come down at all without three or five months.

However, this did not prevent Fang Junsheng's company from jumping out to publicly contact Chen Jiahua, and the intention to cooperate has been publicly stated, regardless of how long the approval process takes. Just start with site selection and initial preparations. This time, Chen Jiahua brought a small team of Howard and a group of people over. I wandered around the capital for two days. In the end, three best locations were determined, one was Qianmen Street in Tianmen Square - that is, the location of the first store opened in China in Wu Tian's memory. The other is on Wangfujing Street, both of which are densely populated areas, and the other is in the foreign embassy district near Sanlitun, where there are many foreigners and Western-style fast food is more acceptable.

Wu Tian immediately made a decision, and chose Qianmen Street, and the store must be larger. If the first store is too shabby, how can it cause a sensation?

In addition, it's about the technical problem of fried chicken, and you don't have to worry too much about it, although the likes of gnawing big chicken and McDonald's are boasting about how their secret recipe is, but it's actually just a gimmick. Just make a similar taste, it's enough to be competent.

Of course. No matter how general the formula is, you always have to get some packaging. also pretend to be mysterious, this is an indispensable content, Wu Tian only casually clicked Chen Jiahua two sentences, and Mr. Chen, who was born in catering, naturally understood.

"Also, how are you going to deal with this raw material problem?" Wu Tian asked.

Chen Jiahua looked at Fang Junsheng, this was the problem he was responsible for.

"Initially, we are still considering cooperating with farms under the Beijing Animal Husbandry Bureau to let them introduce broilers." Fang Junsheng said, "It's just that even if you start to introduce it now, when the scale of slaughter is formed, it will take at least half a year later, and I am afraid that it will not be able to catch up with the opening of new stores." ”

Now there are not many varieties of broilers in China, even if some are introduced from abroad, they are all three yellow chickens, the kind of white feather chickens that come out of the cage in 45 days, but it will be many years before they appear.

"Well, it doesn't matter, just make a little less money in the early stage." Wu Tian said.

In fact, for Wu Tian, it doesn't matter whether he makes money in the early stage or not, the most important part of this business lies in the chain franchise in the later stage. In the early stage, it is just to start the brand, carry out a series of packaging hype, and wait until the reputation is up, through the guò franchise method, the subordinate franchisees are charged brand usage fees and management fees, profit sharing, unified procurement of raw materials, store leasing fees, etc., which is where the money lies.

In fact, we only need to look at the foreign catering brands such as Gnawing Big Chicken and McDonald's in the future, when they first entered the domestic market, the development speed was not fast, after all, the cost of opening a store is too large, and there are many domestic charging and payment items, unless these companies are willing to invest blood, otherwise expect to open a store with profits, how can it be so easy? In the late 90s, with the improvement of domestic consumption level and market opening, they began to carry out franchise programs and began to enter a period of rapid development, with a rapid expansion of 200 stores per year, and the momentum was still unabated before Wu Tian's rebirth.

Of course, Wu Tian will not wait until the end of the nineties to open the franchise program, of course, will not open this program now, after all, the current domestic consumption level is limited, and the store is only afraid of losing money.

……

Chen Jiahua stayed in the mall for two days, talked about the problem of fast-food restaurant chains, and was accompanied by Bai Jie to visit several factories under Fengyun Company. However, Fang Junsheng did not participate in this visit, but was dragged by Wu Tian to the land tour attractions around the mall for two days - Wu Tian did this deliberately, and Fang Junsheng's own family background in the province was seen by Fang Junsheng.

The matter of Second Uncle Fang last time made Wu Tian secretly frightened of those eldest princes, and he really didn't want to be too involved with them, Bai Yaping and Fang Junsheng said that after all, they still had some confidence in front of them, but in front of the powerful and rich Second Uncle Fang's level, he really didn't have any confidence at all, and he was deeply involved, and if he was not careful, he would be in danger of capsizing.

Wu Tiandu has already made up his mind, there is nothing particularly important in the future, he won't even go to the city, and naturally he won't show all his old background to Fang Junsheng, lest he be leaked out by the big-mouthed Bai Yaping in the future, and there will be no trouble.

Fang Junsheng didn't seem to see Wu Tian's careful thoughts, just followed Wu Tian around the mall for a day, but he was also very relaxed, the only thing that was tight was to catch Wu Tian and ask a question about speculating on yen, Wu Tian only said that he should contact Chang Tianhua and transfer the money.

When it comes to this, it is inevitable to talk about the issue of Second Uncle Fang's 10 billion yen loan.

Although Bai Yaping later specifically asked Second Uncle Fang to persuade him, Second Uncle Fang was unmoved - according to the prediction of the experts he found, the yen would indeed appreciate, but he didn't think that the range would be much bigger, and it was completely within a bearable range. However, the second uncle of Fang used this to suppress the little devil again, and pressed the annual interest rate of 3.5, which had been basically negotiated, to 3 points, and he was very complacent.

Wu Tian shook his head secretly, for himself, this matter will still be a big and small hidden danger in the future......
