"Ah Hua, are you going to open a new branch again, or are you invited to enter Taikoo Shing? Got you rent free for a year? ”

When Zhang Zhonghua was invited to Lou's house for dinner on the weekend, he talked about the CFC's invitation to enter Taikoo Shing's legal personnel, which shocked Lou's family.

The speed of opening the store is too fast, the first store in June and September, it has opened three stores in less than half a year, and the fourth store will be opened soon, and it is still invited to settle in, which is really incredible.

"It will be more than a month before the renovation can be completed in February after the new year, and then move in......," Zhang Zhonghua explained.

"And now the personnel are still being trained, and they are about to start recruiting again, especially the training of store managers, which can't keep up with the pace of opening stores. But there is no way to do it, there are many people, but there are not many who meet the requirements, so they can only cultivate themselves.

It can only rely on the Central Main Store and the Causeway Bay Store, and you can also follow the training here. ”

Zhang Zhonghua thought that if he had time, he could go to Sister Liu, that is, the eldest sister of the intermediary, to have a good talk, and ask her to help pay attention to people with relevant experience, so that it would be easier to cultivate.

"Ah Hua, I heard that you have a plan for the whole family bucket, when will you take it out, it will be the New Year soon, it will definitely be very popular."

"Let's take it out in a few years, and when we fight with European and American giants in the future, we can use it as a killer weapon, and there is no need now."

Good things must not be taken out at one time, not to mention that there are no competitors now, the current fast food restaurants on Hong Kong Island are no different from roadside stalls in Zhang Zhonghua's opinion, and CFC is completely a dimensionality reduction blow to them.

"It's great that you can think like that, you can't just take out a good idea, you have to take it out when you need it most. And CFC has a lot of products now, just launch one kind of burger a year, otherwise people will get tired of eating it sooner or later. ”

Lou Zhenhua said with a smile.

"It's okay, when the old CFC customers get tired of eating, the new customers are about to grow up, as long as they keep introducing new flavors, they won't worry about no customers."

Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.

In the future, it will be prosperous for decades to be willing to fight chicken and sell knives, although the business before the crossing is a lot more than before, but it was very profitable before, as long as the taste is constantly updated.

When several members of the Lou family heard this, they all laughed, as long as new flavors are constantly introduced in the future, there will be new people growing up, and there is really no need to worry.

Following.

Zheng Juan spread the written notice of Zhang Zhonghua's decision to pay bonuses and bonus standards at the end of the year to all employees of CFC's stores, which immediately caused a round of cheers.

All the employees are excited, especially those who have been employed for three months, which is a double pay.

Even employees who have been in the company for less than three months have a bonus of more than half a month, and they are also excited, and everyone shouts about the boss.

At the end of the year, Zhang Zhonghua finally finished writing "Titanic", in fact, the original book was not long, so Zhang Zhonghua expanded it.

This expansion took him half a month to write, and his hands trembled a little.

However, it is impossible for Zhang Zhonghua to make a fortune. One on Hong Kong Island is also about five pieces a piece, and even Jin Yong's is not much more expensive. Moreover, the royalties of Hong Kong Island publishing are pitifully low, and even if they can sell a million copies, they will not make much money, and those that sell more than 10 million copies are all sales accumulated after more than a dozen or even decades of sales.

In the end, Zhang Zhonghua decided to put himself in his store first, and make no prizes like the songs he recorded, and then sell them to the outside world when the market is good.

In the afternoon, Zhang Zhonghua took the bilingual manuscript in Chinese and English to the partner printing company in Kowloon. The price here is quite reasonable.

Zhang Zhonghua entered the factory and also visited the modern electronic printing technology, and was very surprised by the advanced degree of equipment.

He didn't know much about this, after all, he was just an ordinary college student in his previous life, not in the industry.

In fact, after the emergence of electronic computers in the early days, they quickly penetrated into all walks of life, and the printing industry was not immune.

Advanced electronic technology has turned the printing industry upside down, and in the printing industry, electronic computing technology was first used for color picture plate making. In 1957, the German company Haier invented the electronic engraving machine for letterpress and lithoplate, and the printing company of the American Times Publishing Company developed the PDI electronic color separator in the 50s.

Today, the factory in Kowloon also uses advanced electronic computing technology to make plates and new paper cutters, and the automation has reached 70%, which deeply shocked Zhang Zhonghua, who has always thought that the technology of this era is very backward.

"Boss Zhang, do you want to print the books yourself? And you wrote it yourself? ”

Zhang Zhonghua's intention surprised Boss Qiao.

He couldn't figure out what Zhang Zhonghua wanted to do? Can't you open your restaurant well? Forget about recording songs before! What kind of books are published now, and Jin Yong is the only one who makes money on Hong Kong Island.

"I didn't plan to sell this book to the outside world, I just put it in the store. Do you still remember the song I recorded, My Heart Will Go On? ”

"Of course I remember, although my English is not very good, I can still hear that the song is very good!"

"This book and the song come from the same story, so I took the time to write the book and put it in the store for people to see, as well as a giveaway for consumption and a prize for the event!"

"This is based on the original story of that song?"

As soon as he heard Zhang Zhonghua's words, Boss Qiao was also interested.

"That's right, you can take a look!"

Zhang Zhonghua said to Boss Qiao with a smile.

Boss Qiao was not polite, picked up the manuscript handed over by Zhang Zhonghua and read it!

The content is not very long, Boss Qiao quickly took a brief look at it, and then let out a deep breath.

"Boss Zhang, you book...... That's a good write! It's a pity not to publish and sell! ”

"Boss Qiao, although my book and songs will be published, they will not be released to the public, at least for now! In recent years, if you want genuine books and tapes, you can only come to CFC! ”

"I have to say, Boss Zhang, you are really ......"

Boss Qiao looked at the young man in front of him with a complicated expression, he was so treacherous at a young age, people can't be good-looking, and the sea can't fight!

"The main thing is that it is really not very profitable to sell books now, and it will be sold to the outside world in the future, and you have experience in printing, how can you charge?" Zhang Zhonghua asked curiously.

"This printing book, the typesetting fee is relatively high, the printing is actually cheaper, and the more you print, the cheaper, English is cheaper than Chinese."

But it starts at 10,000 Hong Kong dollars, and if you print less, you can use those cheap printing methods. ”

Boss Liu said to Zhang Zhonghua with a smile. If you print a thousand, 800, it is better to save money by direct mimeograph or hand-copying!

"All of them have to be hardcovered, how much does it cost?"
