Chapter 300 Returning to Hong Kong Island to Recruit New Managers

"Okay, it's good to have confidence, the Hong Kong Island headquarters will cooperate with you to provide you with the greatest help and strive to cover the market of the entire Wanwan Province."

Zhang Zhonghua said.

"Boss, is our next plan to expand to Southeast Asia?"

"No, Southeast Asia? Let's go back in a few years... Our next step is to enter Dongying, and the current consumption power of Dongying is much stronger than that of Southeast Asia. ”

Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.

Since he visited Dongying before, Zhang Zhonghua has been eyeing the market in Dongying, and he was already optimistic about the storefront, but unfortunately he couldn't negotiate later, and in order to enter Wanwan Province and build on Hong Kong Island, he put the matter of Dongying down for the time being.

In the future, there will be more than 4,000 stores in Dongying, and now McDonald's and KFC are still a few years away from entering the Dongying market, even if the current Dongying market is not as large as the future market, but there is no problem in accommodating five or six hundred stores in the entire Dongying.

"At present, Dongying's economy is in a period of rapid development, and a set meal in our CFC can be bought at a price of $1, plus some of Dongying's special burgers can even be bought for two or three dollars, and the fast food giants in Europe and the United States have not yet entered Dongying, which is our opportunity!"

It's time for Hong Kong Island's hamburger to go up as well.

"Boss, will the price of our restaurant on Hong Kong Island also go up?" Xin Xiaoling asked.

"Let's go up, too, in the past two years, prices and labor have also begun to rise, since the price of labor has risen, let's also increase the price.

In the future, the price of our restaurant will rise with the economy of Hong Kong Island, and you must do a good job of market research in the financial sector, communicate with other departments in a timely manner, and do a good job in price adjustment. ”

Zhang Zhonghua doesn't expect to rely on the poor to make money, the current level of mid-end consumption, relying on profits to seize the market is the king.

"Okay, we will do a good job of market research in a timely manner and adjust the price once every two years."

Xin Xiaoling said.

No matter how expensive CFC is, those Western foods are really expensive, and it is not trivial to increase the price of their own food, as long as they are much cheaper than Western food, everyone can accept it.

And the price should have risen a long time ago, we have to run around the logistics to save the cost of logistics, the price of the restaurant has been so low is not appropriate, he hopes that the more restaurants open the better, the more stores opened, the less the cost will be amortized.

Jia Jinghua is very excited about the huge market in Wanwan Province, and in the future, he will enter the Dongying, Bangzi, Southeast Asia and even European and American markets.

"By the way, how did you get in touch with Citibank in Bend-and-Bend Province?"

Zhang Zhonghua asked.

I still have to save some cash, I can't inject all the income from Hong Kong Island into Wanwan Province, I still have to buy the shop first and then take out a mortgage loan from Citi.

"We have already been contacted, but the amount of funds we currently have in Wanwan Province is still sufficient, and it will be no problem to open forty or fifty stores and then take out a loan, and it will not be too late to borrow from Citibank when the time comes."

Xin Xiaoling said.

"Yes, we must maintain a good relationship with the major banks, and the company's internationalization process cannot be separated from the support of these large banks."

Zhang Zhonghua nodded and said.

"Boss, the sci-fi you published through Sing Tao Newspaper has caused a sensation in the entire Chinese world, and many people want to win the publishing rights in other languages. Xin Xiaoling said with a smile.

"That's right, my niece has recently started to look at your new romance, and she's about to fall into the spell."

Gong Qigao quipped.

"It's true, whether it's the Titanic or the new book, it's very popular, and my wife and children are reading it after I take it home."

Jia Jinghua thought about his wife and daughters at home, and said helplessly.

This boss of his own family is too powerful, he writes about killing all ages, romance to conquer the female market, and science fiction to occupy the male market.

"Boss, you really are this! I don't know what your head is thinking! ”

Hu Xueli gave Zhang Zhonghua a thumbs up.

"These are not the key, the main purpose is to promote our CFC restaurant, I have our CFC restaurant in everything, as well as our Jade Emperor Group company, as long as readers don't scold me for being mixed with private goods."

Zhang Zhonghua said with a smile.

"That's hard to say!"

"Hahahaha, just scold, I was originally for my publicity, and the inclusion of some private goods does not affect the overall effect, Jin Yong is different in his private goods!"

On June 10, Zhang Zhonghua appeared at Kai Tak Airport with He Jiliang, Zheng Juan, and Xin Xiaoling, and got on a plane from Hong Kong Island to Taipei together.

Although it is not the first time to take a plane at Kai Tak Airport, Zhang Zhonghua still feels a little frightened.

"There are really few people on Hong Kong Island who fly to Wanwan Province."

Zhang Zhonghua looked at the people on the plane who were about to fill up and said.

"It's true that there are not a lot, mainly because there are fewer flights, and there is usually only one plane in three or five days, and there are not many people on Hong Kong Island who do business in Wanwan Province, and most of them go to relatives."

He Jiliang explained to Zhang Zhonghua.

"In the past few years, businessmen from Southeast Asia have come to Hong Kong Island to invest with a large amount of money that cannot be spent there, and the real estate market on Hong Kong Island has risen sharply under the stimulation of foreign hot money, which has led to the rapid development of the banking industry on Hong Kong Island and made Chinese banks gradually bigger.

However, these Chinese-funded banks are inexperienced and their business strategies are relatively aggressive, not only lending a large amount to the real estate industry, but also actively participating in speculation, resulting in insufficient liquidity in the banks. Then, with high interest rates, they can only choose high-risk and high-yield loans or investments, thus forming a vicious circle and causing a serious banking crisis to break out on Hong Kong Island.

The banking crisis led to the collapse of the property market on Hong Kong Island, and then the stock market was hit hard, only to recover in the last two years. ”

He Jiliang said helplessly, I don't know how many people went bankrupt in the crisis in the past few years.

"Yes, the major banks have been hit by a crazy run, and many have collapsed directly, and even Hang Seng Bank has not been spared the heavy blow. Only HSBC is the real beneficiary, becoming the largest bank in one fell swoop. ”

Zhang Zhonghua said with emotion, thinking that in a few years, he must acquire a bank, so that the capital turnover is convenient and safer and more hidden, and a large group must also have its own settlement bank.

"In the banking crisis in the past few years, Hang Seng Bank was run on and it was difficult to sustain itself, and if it weren't for HSBC's promise to buy 51% of Hang Seng's 51% stake in Hang Seng for $51 million, Hang Seng would have completely collapsed.

Alas, the 32-year-old Hang Seng changed hands in this way, and it is said that Ho Shanheng cried for two nights when he heard that he had lost the Hang Seng Bank. However, Hang Seng Bank survived. ”

He Jiliang said to Zhang Zhonghua with emotion.
