Chapter 207: Interview with Vice President

Wu Jianguo also knew that he didn't have much time left for himself, so as soon as he took office, he took the opportunity to quickly rectify various problems in the county, first of all, personnel issues.

Although Shangdong County was harmonious in the Sun and Wu eras, after Sun Dong came and left, most of his cronies naturally came under Wu Jianguo's command, but this does not mean that Wu Jianguo was very satisfied with those people who came to Sun Donglai. Therefore, Wu Jianguo naturally had to make some adjustments to the personnel structure, and some people who he thought were incapable or of slightly inferior character were promoted or transferred according to the principle of using only what he wanted, but the magnitude was not too large.

Next, Wu Jianguo followed Wu Tian's proposal to start a planning plan for the long-term development of the county. According to Wu Jianguo and invited the relevant experts in the province to discuss, the overall plan for the development of Shangdong County in the next ten years has finally been released, according to the plan, Shangdong County should give full play to the advantages of being located between Shangcheng City and Dongdu City, with the goal of building a shopping mall and a satellite city in Dongdu, and should vigorously develop vegetables and breeding related industries to enrich the vegetable basket of the citizens of the two cities. As well as the food, beverage and other related industries that have been developed in Shangdong County, we should also continue to increase development efforts to form a scale effect and build Shangdong County into a food base......

There is no doubt that the so-called plan launched by experts is currently being implemented by Shangdong County, but after saying it from the mouth of the experts, the "weight" is different, Wu Jianguo immediately took the experts' conclusions to the Standing Committee for discussion, and was unanimously approved, so the ten-year development plan of Shangdong County has become a red-headed document in the county, even if the new county magistrate arrives in the future, it can only be implemented accordingly.

When Secretary Wu was busy planning for the future. Wu Tian's children are also worrying about the next step of development.

After Wu Tian and Chang Tianhua talked on the phone. It was decided to set up a financial company on Hong Kong Island. This is not a difficult task, the financial industry on Hong Kong Island is already very developed, as long as you have money, set up a new company, pry a few professionals, and it will not be long before you can operate. But the question is who to send to the command, and that's the key.

After all, the amount of money involved in the operation of a financial company is not small. The financial speculation is quite complicated, and there is no one who can be trusted and understands finance to supervise, so Wu Tian can rest assured.

The problem is that there are not many financial professionals in China now, so where can I find someone I can trust?

It is impossible to say that Wu Tian can only let Chang Tianhua set up the company on Hong Kong Island first, and find a professional financial manager to manage it temporarily, anyway, this time to speculate on the yen, he is not prepared to invest much money, and he went to Fang Junsheng to get 1 million. Wu Tian also only let Fengyun Company draw two million small toys casually, only as a training soldier. Let the new company run in and prepare for the future "big war".

After determining the matter of the financial company, Wu Tian went to the mall again, sat in Bai Jie's newly changed Mercedes-Benz car, and went straight to the airport.

After Chen Jiahua arrived in Beijing a few days ago, after a preliminary inspection of the fast food restaurant project in Beijing, he came to the mall again.

This is also no way, this time Chen Jiahua came back, not alone, but brought a few of his management talents in the United States from gnawing big chickens and McDonald's to dig up, ready to conduct an overall investigation of the domestic market, and formulate an operation plan, originally planned to meet Wu Tian, listen to his opinions, who knew that Wu Tian actually ran back to the mall from the capital in advance, as a last resort, Chen Jiahua after the team had a preliminary understanding of the market, and together with Fang Junsheng, with the guy who was ready to be appointed as the vice president, flew to the mall, and Wu Tian, Bai Jie interviewed the operation plan.

The guy who was going to be appointed vice president was named Howard. Benjamin, a Jew, was a low-slung man compared to the average white man, with a black mole under his nose, which looked very funny. However, after a little conversation, Wu Tian felt that this funny guy was very shrewd and proficient in the management of chain fast food restaurants, and it was no wonder that Chen Jiahua didn't care about his face.

According to Howard, he entered a burger restaurant after graduating from high school, and later went to community college while working - in the United States, community college is not a university, at most it is slightly higher than the later domestic "technical school", but you can also get a chapter of literary recruitment, but obviously, foreign companies also attach great importance to cultural recruitment, especially for those large enterprises, you are embarrassed to apply for a job without an Ivy League university in your hand.

But this Howard was stunned to take a community college paper and hired McDonald's, directly became the regional vice president, and soon became the regional general manager, and soon after became the regional general manager, the performance of the area under his control increased by several levels, becoming the fastest growing area in the world. But even so, it is more difficult for Howard to be promoted, and the employment of foreigners is actually very rigid, and the emphasis on civil employment and qualifications is sometimes even more serious than in China.

Therefore, after Chen Jiahua found him, he didn't take much effort to dig him out - Howard easily made a choice for the difficulty of appreciating on the one hand, and a huge emerging blank market on the other.

"Mr. Benjamin, your plan is quite good if it is placed in the United States." Wu Tian said, "However, in China, the rules of doing business are very different from those in Mi country, and your expansion plan is not very feasible." ”

Howard looked at Wu Tian who was sitting on the sofa cross-legged, and listened to Chen Jiahua translating Wu Tian's words with a confused expression.

It's no wonder that no one who sees such a little kid say such old-fashioned things is not surprised. Although there are many talented businessmen in the United States who started to make money at a very young age, they can never find a chain project that talks about investing millions of dollars in their teens, not to mention that the three investors of Mr. Chen, Mr. Bai, and Mr. Fang all listened carefully to Wu Tian's speech.

"I understand that your country has only just opened its market, and there are still some restrictions on investment, so it should be better in ......the future," Chen Jiahua translated Howard's reply.

Wu Tian smiled slightly, this Howard actually knows something about the domestic market? However, he is still too optimistic, the rules of the game for domestic business will be better in the future, but it will never be the same as the United States, and no matter how much he argues, he will not agree with his plan.

According to Howard's plan, it is hoped that more money can be invested in the fast food restaurant project, so that a large number of stores can be quickly developed in a short period of time, and through the advantage of scale, to increase visibility and reduce operating costs.

In fact, now in the country to open a Western-style fast food chain, the most important problem is also the supply of raw materials, fried chicken is generally selected those short maturity period, low price of chicken breeds, and at present there is no large-scale breed of broiler breeding, the use of domestic chicken production, the cost will be much higher, it is not very cost-effective. If you open multiple stores at one time, there will be sales and profits, and you can naturally introduce broiler breeding and reduce costs.

However, Wu Tian didn't plan to engage in the traditional chain business model, and it would cost more money to open his own branches? Or do more franchise chains, develop fast enough, and make money fast enough.

"The overall development plan, I think Mr. Chen should have told you, right?" Wu Tian asked.

"Yes, but joining the chain will cause the quality of the branch to be different, and it is very difficult to manage." Howard said.

"That's up to you." Wu Tian said with a smile, "The purpose of asking you to be the vice president is to improve management." ”

Howard was silent for a moment, and then said, "However, in that case, it will cost the company a lot of potential profits." ”

Wu Tian smiled slightly and said, "But in that case, the speed of development will also be accelerated countless times, right?" ”

Howard shrugged his shoulders in frustration.

However, Howard also believes that Wu Tian's business idea cannot be regarded as a mistake, after all, a new company in the case of limited funds, through the way of franchise chain, is definitely much faster than the development of direct chain, saving time and investment, maybe that model is more profitable.

"Okay, Benjamin, about the development and expansion of the company, another vice president of your own company is in charge, your main task is to do a good job in management and operation, to ensure the daily operation and profitability of our store." Wu Tian said, "As for your plan, you can also put it up for the time being, and when the company makes money in the future and has the ability to open up overseas markets, your plan can also be used as a plan for the company to enter the rice market." ”

Wu Tian's so-called other vice president is a talent that Wu Tian has long been optimistic about, Manager Cheng of the Western Restaurant Department of the Great Wall Hotel. Last time in the capital, after formulating a cooperation plan with Fang Junsheng and others, Chen Jiahua and Fang Junsheng came forward and had already talked to Manager Cheng once, and Manager Cheng of course resigned from his job at the Great Wall Hotel and followed the big man Bai Yaping.

Of course, the reason why Manager Cheng is willing to resign and go out of Bai Yaping's face, Manager Cheng is also quite satisfied with the salary offered to him by Chen Jiahua and Fang Junsheng - although the Great Wall Hotel is a joint venture, and the Chinese and foreign managers are treated the same, but the Chinese manager does not dare to accept an annual salary of up to hundreds of thousands, and he can't return the money to the city, and he only dares to take a basic salary of a few hundred yuan each. So that all the Chinese managers dare not look at the foreign side, Manager Cheng only has a few hundred yuan a month, all day long looking at the hotel is not rich or expensive, Manager Cheng is naturally unwilling, there is a chance of course willing to jump out to make a lot of money.

And Manager Cheng has experienced the most upscale place in China, such as the Great Wall Hotel, and he has long been clear-eyed, and he is naturally competent to let him be responsible for the market development with many rules at present...... (To be continued......)
