Chapter 414: Official opening

It is unrealistic to want Lai Xiaohu to find such a backer in a short period of time. Even if Lai Xiaohu knew that Li Gan's Li family had so much influence, it was not so easy to get the Li family to protect Lai Xiaohu's rights and interests. Before Li Gan became the leader of the Li family, Lai Xiaohu could only use Li Gan's strength, and could not get the Li family to come forward to help him.

"I hope these people can have a good relationship with the local forces." Lai Xiaohu thought in his heart. Before this, someone had already reported to Lai Xiaohu that they would invite those people to attend the opening ceremony when they opened. In addition to the local partners established by Roca Supermarket, Lai Xiaohu is most concerned about which officialdom figures will attend the opening ceremony. However, as far as the current feedback is concerned, most of the officials invited by the distribution of Lejia supermarket are some local middle-level cadres, and there are very few officials who really dominate local affairs. It is better to have several large regions or communities that have invited deputies from the local government, such as vice governors or vice mayors. If you want to let the top leader go, it is obvious that the level of the Lejia supermarket is not enough.

Of course, there are local exceptions, that is, the heavyweight guest at the opening ceremony of the Kansai branch of the Roca supermarket in Kansai Province on Chinese New Year's Eve in Kansai Province. This is the highest-status guest to attend the national opening ceremony of Roca Supermarket. Under normal circumstances, Shi Lei would definitely not attend this ceremony, as the secretary of a province, he has a lot of things to deal with every day, how can he have time to take care of the affairs of Lejia Supermarket. However, when the general manager of Lejia Supermarket Kansai Province invited Shi Lei in the name of Lai Xiaohu, Shi Lei, who did not hesitate, directly agreed.

For Lai Xiaohu. Shi Lei is very impressed. If it weren't for his personal involvement in the affairs of Kansai Province, who would have imagined that it was this excessively young man who looked too young that single-handedly decided the pattern of Kansai Province today. Without Lai Xiaohu, Shi Lei may still have to be a nominal secretary like before. How could it be like now, in just a few months, Shi Lei has already made Shi Lei say everything in Kansai Province. Now Hong Yunfei is the most powerful in Kansai Province, but after the last incident, Hong Yunfei obviously saw clearly, he knew that he could not go further, and in order to allow himself to safely finish the last term, he is now unusually low-key, and he either does not speak on many things that do not involve his own interests. Even if he spoke, he only had one sentence to support Secretary Shi's decision. That's it, although Shi Lei's foundation is far inferior to Hong Yunfei. But his influence is already the greatest.

Shi Lei knows very well that everything he has today has a lot to do with Lai Xiaohu's help at the beginning, and he not only recognizes Lai Xiaohu's own strength, but also attaches great importance to the network behind Lai Xiaohu. When he received the invitation to open the Kansai branch of Lejia Supermarket, Shi Lei agreed without too much thought. This face he gave was Lai Xiaohu.

Hong Yunfei, the boss of Kansai Province, went. Other officials who were moved by the inquiry also attended the opening ceremony of the Roca supermarket. Even they may not even have a chance to speak. However, Hong Yunfei didn't go, he originally wanted to go, since Shi Lei went, then he wouldn't lose his share, and he could also take the opportunity to show favor to Lai Xiaohu. However, the person in charge of Lejia Supermarket in Kansai Province knew that Lai Xiaohu had a conflict with Hong Yunfei, and he thought that the relationship between the two was still very bad, so he didn't dare to invite Hong Yunfei. What's the matter, it's also a provincial governor, and the other party didn't invite him. That Hong Yunfei definitely couldn't let go of his face and rushed over by himself, he couldn't afford to lose that person.

Although Hong Yunfei did not attend the opening ceremony after the last day. However, in terms of the momentum of the opening ceremony, the Kansai Province was undoubtedly the most successful and the grandest. With Shi Lei's income, the TV stations and newspapers in Kansai Province will definitely carry out follow-up reports, and people in Kansai Province will also know that Lejia Supermarket is covered by Shi Lei, the big secretary, who dares to go to Lejia Supermarket without opening his eyes.

Through these real-time transmission of the pictures, Lai Xiaohu can see that there are already many customers queuing up in various branches. Just like the opening of Roca Supermarket in Jincheng and Beijing, many customers lined up outside early to wait for today's opening. This scene shows that the promotion of Roca Supermarket is very successful, and it also makes the whole company more confident in today's opening.

After a brief speech by the heads of each region and the invited important guests, in a burst of celebratory firecrackers and music, 116 new stores of Lejia Supermarket across the country officially opened. The guests walked to both sides, and the door of the Roca supermarket was slowly opened from the middle, and the customers who had been ready for a long time rushed in.

"It seems that Roca supermarket is very popular with consumers?" Shi Lei, who was standing at the door, looked at the customers who rushed in, and said to the general manager of the Kansai Province region of the Lejia supermarket on the side.

The general manager of the Kansai Province region of Lejia Supermarket is a rare male employee in Lejia Supermarket, and the other party is working in the administrative company and slowly rising, although he did not work directly in the store, but the overall situation is particularly strong, which is also the reason why Lai Xiaohu values him, and even after the other party went to Kansai Province, Lai Xiaohu also told the other party a lot of internal things in Kansai Province, especially those people he knew in the officialdom. Otherwise, the other party would not have invited Shi Lei, and he would not have ignored Hong Yunfei.

"Xie Lu and Secretary Xie Shi's praise, our Lejia supermarket will definitely work harder to serve consumers." The general manager of Kansai Province said when he heard this.

The opening ceremony ended in a lively voice, through real-time transmission, Lai Xiaohu and others roughly watched the opening ceremony of some branches, and after watching it, Lai Xiaohu and others were all filled with excited smiles.

"Looks like there should be no problem today." Yang Fengze said to Lai Xiaohu after eating the last bun: "Just rush this morning, I estimate that I should be able to rush to 400,000 yuan in a single store today." ”

"Four hundred thousand, hopefully." Lai Xiaohu said when he heard this, but he also had great expectations for this result.

At present, the turnover of each branch of Roca Supermarket is showing an upward trend as a whole. There are many reasons, one is that the influence of Roca supermarket is increasing. The spread is getting wider and wider, so that more people can be attracted to become customers of Roca supermarket. And the other is that it has benefited from the growth of the country's overall economy, which is not a praise of merit. It's a real thing. If there is no economic growth, the income of the vast majority of people will not be able to grow, and without income growth, consumption will naturally stagnate, especially some high-end consumer products, which will lack the soil for survival. Now that there are more and more wealthy people, there are naturally more and more customers going to Roca supermarket, and the average frequency of each customer is slowly increasing. These are all important reasons for the growth of Roca supermarket's turnover.

Another reason that has to be said is the rise in prices. Prices have risen rapidly in recent years. Almost every day, you can see news that says that today's vegetables or meat have risen by a few percent. After the price of goods, especially these vegetables and meat, rises, the only benefit to the Lejia supermarket is that the price of vegetables in the Lejia supermarket seems to be getting more and more common.

In the past, Lai Xiaohu used to price vegetables in Lejia supermarkets at prices that were two to three times the market price or even more. This price was really high at the beginning, so that people who were not really rich at that time could not afford to consume vegetables from Roca supermarket. However, the high price of the year is nothing now, and the price of some vegetables in the Roca supermarket with relatively low prices has been equal to or even exceeded the price of similar vegetables outside. And the gap between other higher-priced vegetables and the outside vegetables is getting smaller and smaller. Again, at such a high price. Why don't you buy vegetables from Roca supermarket? The vegetables on the outside are like that, and the vegetables in the Roca supermarket have all kinds of magical effects.

If Roca Supermarket is a listed company, it is estimated that these good news can impact the share price of Lejia Supermarket all the way up, but although it is not listed. But the turnover of Roca supermarkets can also reflect the problem.

At the beginning of Jincheng Lejia Supermarket, the average sales of a single store per day was more than 500,000. There was a period of time when it was good and it was able to maintain the level of 600,000. However, in addition to the fact that there was no particularly significant growth in the first half of the year when Jincheng opened, its sales also began to increase with the spread of word of mouth of Rojia Supermarket. Accompanied by all kinds of good news, the sales of the branches in Jincheng rose from more than 500,000 at the beginning to more than 600,000, and then continued to rise, and in the past two months, the average daily sales of the six branches in Jincheng have reached 750,000. There are even one or two better ones that have exceeded 800,000, but they have been lowered after an average of them.

In Beijing and Shanghai, the turnover of Lejia supermarkets is even more terrifying. At the beginning, the turnover of the two places was almost around 600,000 yuan per day in a single store. But now it's been accompanied by a rise all the way. Relying on the most developed economies and the wealthiest consumer groups, the single-day turnover of a single store in these two places has increased to more than 900,000 yuan. It's only a few tens of thousands of dollars away to reach one million. From this, you can imagine what kind of money-making speed the current Lejia supermarket is.

In this context, it is not a small challenge for the new store to reach 400,000 yuan in a single day. But it's not entirely impossible.

"Even if it doesn't reach 400,000, even more than 300,000 is good." Lai Xiaohu thought. A store has more than 300,000 stores, and now there are more than 100 stores, how much is it? And that's just a day.

If it weren't for Lai Xiaohu's constant attention to confidentiality in this regard, maybe the situation of Lejia Supermarket would have been hyped up outside. In Lejia Supermarket, all employees have signed a confidentiality agreement, and they cannot leak the company's internal information, of which the business situation is one of the most important. Among them, those store managers, financial personnel and other people who have access to important information about Roca Supermarket are the focus of confidentiality requirements.

Not to mention that the compensation in those confidentiality agreements is very high, even the work of Roca Supermarket that may be lost as a result makes all employees cautious about it.

Roca supermarket is very profitable, but to what extent is it really profitable? How much money can I make every day? Few people outside the world know the exact number of these information.

Confidentiality is also what Lejia Supermarket has to do, and now Lejia Supermarket is more of a fat sheep that can make money. But he didn't have enough strength to protect himself, so Lai Xiaohu had to keep a low profile.

In the past, when Lejia Supermarket only had branches in Jincheng and Beijing, Lai Xiaohu was still relatively high-profile, although Lejia Supermarket was also very profitable at that time. But after all, the overall scale is too small, and there are almost no people who really covet the Roca supermarket. So at that time, Lai Xiaohu was very relieved, and even looked for a star when he opened. But now, in addition to normal advertising, Lai Xiaohu will not let any information involving money circulate.

With the relationship between Li Gan and Shi Lei, Lai Xiaohu felt that it was not enough, if Li Gan could rise in a short period of time, then Lai Xiaohu would be relieved. However, it is clear that there is almost no possibility that Li Gan will be promoted again in the short term. Therefore, how high-profile Lai Xiaohu is in the world has to match Li Gan's level.

After the opening ceremony, it will be officially opened. But at this time, it is impossible for everyone to keep an eye on it, and there is no need. Except for Lai Xiaohu, who left everyone for a short meeting, everyone quickly left the conference room.

After the excitement of the opening ceremony. At this time, everyone's mood was relaxed with the opening, and everyone began to devote themselves to the work of each day step by step, but everyone is looking forward to how much turnover these branches can have when they open today.

Time slowly moved from morning to noon, to afternoon and evening. Soon it was time to get off work, and the business of the branches continued at this time. I had to wait until after nine o'clock in the evening to know how the business was doing today. Although many people are curious about how much turnover these new branches can achieve today, it is impossible to continue to wait here. When it's time to get off work, everyone gets off work normally, but everyone keeps their mobile phones open at all times, especially chat tools such as q*q are the focus of everyone's attention, and they are always staring at it and waiting for the news to come after it can be received as soon as possible.

Lai Xiaohu, Zhang Ying and others also left, but they didn't go back directly, but the three of them found a Western restaurant outside together. Lai Xiaohu, who often mixes abroad, is now very familiar with Western restaurants. In the beautiful environment and elegant music, the three of them had a relaxing and happy dinner.

When I went back, it was already past eight o'clock, and the three of them bought some fruit and put it on the table. Watching TV while eating. But in fact, the minds of all three people are no longer here, and they are all waiting for the good news that will come soon.

"What do you think will happen to the new store today?" Song Yaqiao stuffed a grape into the mouth of Lai Xiaohu, who was sitting in the middle, and then asked him and Zhang Ying.

"More than 300,000 is guaranteed, if it can reach 400,000 as Brother Yang said, it will be more perfect." Lai Xiaohu said while eating, and Zhang Ying on the side also agreed with this.

"Xiaohu, your assets are about to skyrocket again." Song Yaqiao pinched Lai Xiaohu's arm and said.

"Money is something outside of the body, and only the two of you are the most important." Lai Xiaohu said to the two of them at the right time. Then he sat up and pulled the two girls into his arms.

In the slow consumption of the three of them, the time finally reached more than nine o'clock, at this time the store of Lejia Supermarket is about to close for the end of the day's business, and today's business situation will begin to be counted one after another.

Roca Supermarket now has its own corporate group, and all employees of Roca Supermarket are in this group. At the request of Lai Xiaohu, the information released this time was also released in the Lejia supermarket enterprise group for the first time.

At this moment, all the people in Lejia Supermarket are staring at their q*q group, and even many people are sitting in front of the computer for the convenience of putting down their mobile phones, including Lai Xiaohu and other three.

The business time is almost over, and many employees began to keep asking about the opening of the new store in the group today, asking for breaking news, asking for insider information and other news kept appearing on the screen.

Finally, when the time came to 21 and 40 minutes, a large region finally released the first news, and this province is still Yu Province, where Lai Xiaohu's hometown is located.

The news released by the Henan Provincial Region is: the turnover of the three stores on the first day of opening is: 510,000, 420,000 and 460,000 respectively, with a total turnover of 1.39 million and an average turnover of more than 460,000 per store.

Although Henan Province always gives people the feeling of being a backward province, in fact, the total economic volume of Henan Province is not low, and it has been able to rank among the top five in the country for several consecutive years. Moreover, most of the essence of Henan Province is concentrated in the provincial capital business city, the degree of concentration is very obvious, and the rich people in the business city are also very concentrated.

According to the positioning of Yu Province and its own economic situation, it was possible to open four new stores here, but in the end, only three were actually opened. It's not that Lai Xiaohu doesn't want to open, but the traffic situation in the commercial city seriously restricts the Lejia supermarket. Originally, the commercial city is very congested, and there are almost no roads that are not congested during peak hours. In recent years, the municipal government has begun to carry out large-scale construction of roads, subways, viaducts and other infrastructure, and it can be said that the commercial city has become a city-wide construction site, and its traffic situation is getting worse and worse. Poor traffic conditions are bound to make a huge difference to the travel of a large number of residents, which also leads to the reluctance of many people to go to distant places to shop, especially vegetables and meat products. It is impossible for Lai Xiaohu to open Lejia supermarket in every community, he can only reduce one branch, and when the traffic in the commercial city improves in the future, it is not too late to increase the number of branches when it is convenient for everyone to travel.
