Chapter 666: A Change of Times

Gu Jie was not stupid, he knew that his little calculations would be seen by Song Yuanchao one day, but he didn't expect Song Yuanchao to ask him so bluntly.

Song Yuanchao is right, since they met, Song Yuanchao has always been the eldest brother of their team, and he takes good care of him Gu Jie. He Gu Jie was inseparable from Song Yuanchao from a penniless poor boy today, and if there was no Song Yuanchao, there would be no Gu Jie today.

"Actually...... Actually, I'm just ....... Gu Jie didn't know how to explain to Song Yuanchao for a while, the more nervous he was, the more he couldn't say anything, looking at his appearance, Song Yuanchao sighed in his heart, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, don't say anything else, I understand what you think." ”

After a pause, Song Yuanchao said again: "Actually, I am also to blame for this matter, I am busy with work and ignore your feelings." Sanmao, you are good at everything, but you are too sensitive, if you have any ideas, just come to me and say no? We are friends and brothers, so what can't we say? You, you! ”

"I'm sorry Brother Chao, it's me who ......was wrong." Gu Jie lowered his head and said embarrassedly.

"The past is gone, don't do it again in the future." Song Yuanchao admonished him, and he didn't mention it anymore, which could be regarded as saving some face for Gu Jie.

Then Song Yuanchao asked, "What are your plans next?" If you want to go to Pengcheng, I'll arrange it. Now Daqi is busy with the work of the telecommunications side, and other industries in Pengcheng have no time to scruple, why don't you go and be the general manager for him? ”

Gu Jie thought about it and shook his head, seeing that Song Yuanchao's face changed slightly, he was afraid that he would misunderstand, so he hurriedly explained: "It's not that I don't want to go, but I'm about to get married, and I can't just separate the husband and wife after marriage, right?" When the time comes, I will be in Pengcheng and my wife will be in Shanghai, what is this? My parents told me several times that I should have a baby early. ”

"It's also a way to bring my wife over, but you don't know that my wife is an only daughter, and they have only one daughter in their family, and the mother-in-law hopes to let her daughter accompany her, even if you live separately after marriage, if you live separately in a city, you can usually walk around, but once you go to Pengcheng, you can ......."

"Besides, Xiao Qi and Zhang Jiaming in Pengcheng are doing a good job, and the two of them are holding their breath and are planning to compete for the position of general manager. If I go, won't it discourage people? I can't do anything like that. ”

Song Yuanchao thought about it and nodded, Gu Jie's words were not unreasonable, the location of Pengcheng was a radish and a pit, and now Pengcheng Garment Company and Shenghua Pengcheng Co., Ltd. are nominally under the control of Li Daqi, but in fact, Xiao Qi and Zhang Jiaming are in charge.

As Li Daqi's focus gradually shifted to telecommunications, they all knew in their hearts that one day Li Daqi would give up the position of Pengcheng boss, but in the end, who would take over the position was Xiao Qi or Zhang Jiaming has not yet been determined.

So both of them are holding their breath, competing with each other to catch up with me, if Gu Jie is parachuted in at this time, it will be a very big blow to their enthusiasm, even if Gu Jie is a shareholder.

Doing business is not only to do products and markets, but more importantly, people, talent is rare is the eternal truth. Just like Zheng Guoyuan's role in the Quanlin Factory, where would there be the Quanlin Factory without Zheng Guoyuan? The same is true of Shenghua Company, no matter how great Song Yuanchao's ability is, it is impossible for one person to control such a large group, what about a hero and three gangs?

In addition, the situation in Gu Jie's family is also a factor, if he is allowed to go to Pengcheng or even return to Jinling according to his words, it is not appropriate. As for arranging a position in the Huhai branch of the company, this is also inappropriate, you must know that Gu Jie was a director of the board of directors before, and his status is very transcendent, if he is directly arranged in the branch now, even if he is the general manager of the branch, it will be an obvious demotion in the eyes of outsiders.

For a while, Song Yuanchao couldn't think of how to arrange Gu Jie, and he couldn't help but mutter.

"It's okay Brother Yuanchao, in fact, I'm not short of money now, I'll get married first, if I'm lucky, I'll be able to be a father by this time next year." Gu Jie said with a smile very optimistically.

"Haha, that's true, it's also a way to solve personal problems first. But Sanmao, do you have any plans in mind? You can't be idle all the time, can you? ”

"Well, I think so too, people can't always be idle, they have to find something to do." Gu Jie nodded, and then asked tentatively, "Brother Yuanchao, what do you think I should do to set up a clothing store?" ”

"Clothing store?"

"That's right!" Gu Jie said very seriously: "I am also an expert in clothing, this is what I did in Yangcheng back then, we Shenghua also have our own clothing company, the group is in Xiangjiang, and there is no shortage of foreign goods." Now the clothing market in Shanghai is very good, and you know the stall that Daniel Zhang did before, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to say that the daily gold is entered. ”

"Getting a clothing store in Shanghai, not to mention making a lot of money, at least the business will not be bad. And I don't want to do it like Daniel Zhang, I don't plan to make some ordinary clothes, I plan to learn the model of a department store to find a better place to open a store, specializing in selling boutique clothes. ”

Song Yuanchao couldn't help but think about Gu Jie's idea.

Gu Jie's idea is actually good, after the reform and opening up, the economy has gradually developed, and people's living standards have been continuously improved.

Especially in recent years, the speed of development has become faster and faster, and everyone's vision has also learned a lot with the opening of the country, and at the same time, it has subtly begun to change everyone's life.

Among them, clothing is a major category, in more than ten years...... Not only a few years ago, there were only three colors of gray, black and blue on the street, but now the colors of the streets and alleys have begun to become brighter, especially the girls who love beauty have begun to walk in the trend of the times and dress more and more boldly.

In 1985, there was a movie "The Girl in Red" that made Song Yuanchao, who had seen it in his previous life, deeply memorable.

This film tells the story of the conflict between traditional ideas and trend changes in the changes of this era, a 16-year-old girl with excellent moral character because of a red shirt leads to the ideological criticism of people who cling to the concept of inadequacy, and even ushers in overwhelming criticism and criticism.

In the end, the girl boldly broke the tradition, once again put on the beautiful red shirt, broke through many difficulties, bravely faced her brilliant life with a smile, and embarked on her own path .......

At the end of the story, the back of the girl in red fades away, like the disappearance of an old symbol, and at the same time represents the advent of a new era.

This is a very niche, but very representative of the times, excellent film, from this movie you can see people's hope for the future and the yearning for beauty, and the same is true.

Song Yuanchao noticed that there were several magazines on the coffee table in front of him, as well as those magazines and newspapers in Gu Jie's study, many of which were about fashion, it seemed that Gu Jie was definitely not improvised, but had already had such an idea.

Gu Jie is a person who likes to do practical things, and it is not his character to let him sit in the office every day, he is more interested in some practical work.

Speaking of fashion, especially boutique fashion, it is actually already available in China, but many people know about it, but not many can really have it.

This is also to mention a famous foreigner, this foreigner is the French fashion designer Pierre Cardin.

Pierre Cardin came to China back in 1978 and was drawn to this ancient land that was beginning to exude vitality.

The following year, in 1979, Pierre Cardin hosted China's first-ever foreign clothing show in Yanjing, and for the first time, a model wore his clothes on the runway.

In the following years, Pierre Cardin held a number of exhibitions to promote his ideas and fashion, thus making the brand the most famous and high-end foreign brand in the eyes of the Chinese people.

In fact, the international status of the Pierre Cardin brand is not high, and it is second- to third-rate in France, which is much better than his fame. But at the time, it was different, when it came to the Pierre Cardin brand, everyone was synonymous with luxury goods and high-end goods, and in an era when the average monthly salary per capita was less than 100 yuan, a Pierre Cardin clothing could be sold for 1,500 yuan, which was unimaginable.

Boutique clothing store is indeed a good project, and if it is done well, it has a great future.

In the following years, a number of similar shopping malls appeared, such as the First Department Store in Huhai, which deliberately set aside half a floor in the mid-80s to display and sell some high-end fashion imported from abroad.

Later, the Oriental Department Store was even better, remember that in the jeans display on the first floor, there is a pair of jeans known as the most expensive in the country to attract countless people to visit, the price of this jeans is 9999 yuan, you must know that most people's wages at that time are not more than 100 yuan, even in the largest city in the country such as Shanghai, ordinary people can get a salary of more than 100 yuan a month is very good, but this jeans is equal to the income of ordinary people who do not eat or drink for nine years, so that countless people are dumbfounded.

The same is true in Yanjing, a well-known actor in later generations opened a clothing mall in Yanjing Xidan a few years later, this shopping mall called Special Special has been popular throughout Yanjing since it opened, and the daily sales are amazingly high.

Judging from these, Gu Jie's ideas and plans still have a lot of possibilities for success, and Song Yuanchao doesn't think that Gu Jie's investment in this will be a loss.

As long as you directly buy the area where you want to open a shopping mall, even if it is vacant, it will be impossible to put this land and the buildings above it for more than ten or twenty years, not to mention that making clothing is not difficult for Gu Jie at all, coupled with the resources and channels of Shenghua Group, it is very easy for Gu Jie as a shareholder to do this.
