Chapter 160: Half a Year of Shoes and Clothing
In the second half of 2012, Griffin's business deteriorated.
If the first half of the year relied on the support of friends and the freshness of new stores, then the second half of the year must rely on the flow of natural people and the influence of the business district.
Chen Erdong's Weibo marketing is no longer magical, and he has also teamed up with some apps that do group buying and reviews to promote together, but Griffin's daily attendance rate is still at most about 30%, and the restaurant begins to lose money and make ends meet.
What's even more worrying is that the merchants on the entire street began to transfer one after another, and they were all depressed. Some people will come, and those who come are also blind, and it will not be long before they regret it.
The originally clean and tidy riverside commercial street has disappeared from the dust and noise of the new store decoration, and this environment has made the number of people who come here to consume has become even rarer.
Even if it was so bleak, the largest griffin was still the best one of all the stores.
Chen Erdong smiled bitterly and said that this is the realistic version of the Dragon Gate Inn, no matter how bad the conditions are, there is only this one in the desert within a radius of dozens of miles.
Regardless of whether the person in charge of the shopping mall's investment center, Peng Dingkun, and Lin Daqi have a relationship, facts have proved that Peng Dingkun broke his promise. None of the improvements he spoke of improved were improved.
The popularity of the mall is not as good as day by day, not to mention the entry of big brands, sometimes Chen Erdong goes to the mall to wander around, from Monday to the starry day, there is not a single ghost, only on weekends can see a few people.
There is not a day when the stores in the mall are not engaged in activities, either discounts and promotions, or give three free for 100 people, and later, even the merchants here began to roll up and leave.
Chen Erdong and Du Yu have talked and speculated with the shopping mall, but they still can't change the status quo, they believe that the shopping mall has serious deception in the early investment promotion process.
Patten did not say a word of practical significance except to greet him with a smile, and in the end, Griffin's shareholders decided not to pay rent anymore after discussion.
Han Qingyu was worried that the shopping mall would sue them, but Chen Erdong said that he wished he would sue, and the shareholders wanted to start false propaganda to force them first.
Du Yu calculated that he had stopped paying the promotion fee before, and now he no longer pays the rent, so that the restaurant can barely maintain.
Because they don't want Griffin to follow in the footsteps of other stores, they can hold on for a while longer, after all, they have invested nearly three million, and if it ends now, they will lose two-thirds.
On the eve of the Spring Festival in 2013, it was the time for major companies to hold annual meetings and have dinner with relatives and friends, and it was also a place for the city's catering to compete for heavy troops.
Several shareholders tried their best to get a few big customers, and Lin Daqi was scolded for recommending Griffin to the leader, saying that the place he was looking for did not meet the temperament of a state-owned enterprise.
Lin Daqi, who was depressed in the office, suddenly received a WeChat message from Guan Mingyue, asking him to arrange an annual meeting and two private dinners in the next three days, and attached the corresponding requirements, and by the way, the deposit for the three sessions was directly transferred to him.
Lin Daqi's feelings about Guan Mingyue are very complicated, and most of them are disgusted, but the two have had a skin-to-skin relationship, and in the face of the sudden gift, Lin Daqi struggled for a long time and finally only replied with the word "thank you".
When Lin Daqi posted the news to the Griffin WeChat group, it was like throwing a meteorite into a pool of thousand-year-old backwater, and all shareholders, including the waiter, exploded in the WeChat group.
Especially for the company's annual meeting, three floors have to be used, and a stage is needed to perform, and the whole annual meeting including two meals paid a total of 120,000 to Griffin, plus the other two chartered dinners, Griffin's Spring Festival performance suddenly soared by 200,000.
Chen Erdong and Du Yu knew in their hearts that this face was completely Guan Mingyue against Lin Daqi.
It's just that Du Yu didn't understand that this woman has given away brand-name shoes and clothes for half a year, and now she is vigorously supporting business, but she doesn't say a word about falling in love with Lin Daqi.
On the contrary, now I come to consume, except to say hello and no one to say a word. Chen Erdong made a joke: "Could it be that he has some big intentions for Lin Daqi?" I'm casting a long line to catch a big fish. ”
The day before Chinese New Year's Eve, Du Yu came forward to invite some good friends to Griffin for a reunion dinner, and anyone could not be invited, but Guan Mingyue was definitely the one who could not be left behind.
These friends who came to Griffin's dishes have long been ripe, and they can taste which dish they are eating with their eyes closed, and it is an exaggeration to say that they are tired of eating, but this kind of dinner party is more to maintain the relationship with each other, so everyone still issued a word of praise for the dishes.
Halfway through the meal, the shareholders collectively stood up to give a glass to Guan Mingyue individually to show their sincere gratitude.
Putting aside her relationship with Lin Daqi, just with her support for Griffin and these three charters, it is worthy of respect, not to mention that she helped Chen Erdong and Du Yu solve the big trouble of tourism complaints earlier.
After drinking, Guan Mingyue said, "Do you really want to thank me?" ”
"That's for sure, Sister Guan, I can't wait to take out my heart and show you." Chen Erdong flicked his tongue.
"I don't believe it, if you really want to thank me, then grant me a wish."
As soon as these words came out, Lin Daqi shook violently, thinking to himself, don't let me be her boyfriend.
Lin Daqi's slight tremor was seen by Guan Mingyue, she pouted and said, "Look at what scares you, do you think I'm going to eat you?" Flatter yourself. ”
Lin Daqi blushed instantly, and everyone who knew what was going on with them laughed silently.
Chen Erdong saw that she didn't mean to fight Lin Daqi's idea, so he replied: "You say, I will do it for you when you go up the knife mountain and down the oil pot!" ”
Guan Mingyue raised her glass and said to everyone at the dinner table: "Come on, come on, you are all witnesses, Boss Chen said that no matter what, it will meet my wishes, and if we make this glass, we should be a blood alliance, and we must help me testify!" ”
Everyone cheered in unison, and after finishing the wine in the glass, Guan Mingyue wiped the corners of his mouth, Chen Erdong was actually a little weak-hearted, this Guan Mingyue's behavior for half a year made him unpredictable.
"I have a birthday at the end of this month, I want to go to Thailand, you go with me, this person he has to go, I have inquired, he still has annual leave." Guan Mingyue stretched out her Qianqian jade finger, besides Lin Daqi, who else could she refer to?
Lin Daqi was speechless, only to see everyone's eyes staring at him, only to feel crispy, he paused, and said, "I, I don't even have a visa and a passport, and I can't go if I want to." ”
"After the Spring Festival, give me your ID card, and within a week, it will be all done! No more, two weeks, no delay. Guan Mingyue said loudly.
"Okay, okay, I want to go, husband, let's sign up!" It was Tang Meng who spoke, she had never been abroad, and she had long wanted to go to Thailand.
"Boss Chen, Boss Du, what about the two of you?" Guan Mingyue is like a rich man with a leather whip, and the others are individuals who can't afford to pay public grain.
Du Yu thinks this is a good idea, the past two or three years have been hard and twists and turns, I haven't gone out for a long time, I think he was in the United States back then, but he was the master who traveled all over the United States.
Of course Chen Erdong doesn't care, he is just worried about Lin Daqi, in case Lin Daqi doesn't want to go, this dinner will be very embarrassing, but he doesn't want Lin Daqi to agree to the whole life.
Chen Erdong looked at Lin Daqi and asked in a low voice, "What do you say?" As you like. ”
He knew that Lin Daqi could understand the meaning of his words, Chen Erdong made up his mind, if Lin Daqi resolutely didn't go, Guan Mingyue would insist on embarrassing him, and he couldn't care about gratitude and directly lifted the table.
"You said, do it in two weeks?" Lin Daqi's words were beyond Chen Erdong's expectations.
"If you can't do it in two weeks, I'll ask you to go!" Guan Mingyue is more serious.
