Gu Jie's clothing boutique now has three stores in Shanghai, and has faintly become a benchmark in Shanghai's clothing industry.

Huhai's department store industry is very famous, in addition to the city Baiyi store, there are several other department stores, all of which have a clothing business. In addition, Maiyang Road clothing street is extremely famous in the country, attracting many Chinese and foreign tourists.

However, since the opening of Gu Jie's clothing boutique, it has been under the banner of boutique clothing, and has obtained the agency of many internationally famous brands, which has suddenly surpassed those old department stores in this aspect and has become the representative of Shanghai's boutique clothing.

Now Gu Jie is also quite famous in Shanghai, especially in the clothing industry, he and Zhang Jianguo's wife Sun Xia can be said to be the leader of this industry, and the bosses of many industries outside have to politely call him when they meet Gu Jie: "Mr. Gu", as for Sun Xia, she is directly called "Sister Sun".

After receiving a call from Song Yuanchao, Gu Jie agreed without thinking about it, speaking of which, he and Qin Zhengguo hadn't seen each other for a long time, remembering that when they partnered together in Yangcheng, Gu Jie and Qin Zhengguo had eaten and lived together for a long time, and their friendship was very deep.

At noon, Gu Jie came to Song Yuanchao's side, and when he arrived, he handed the wine in his hand to Song Yuanchao with a smile, saying that this bottle of wine was specially brought by him, didn't he eat hot pot tonight, this wine is especially good with hot pot.

"This wine is good, where did it come from?" After taking the wine and looking at it, Song Yuanchao asked with a smile.

"Of course, I bought it with money, and there aren't many left, if it weren't for people selling me face, even if I didn't spend money, I wouldn't have sold it." Gu Jie said a little proudly.

"Okay! Drink it tonight! Song Chaoyuan nodded with a smile, put the wine to the side, and asked Gu Jie: "What are you busy with these days?" It's been a while since I've seen you come and sit. ”

"Don't mention it, I'm annoying myself these days." Gu Jie waved his hand, took out a cigarette and handed it to Song Yuanchao, lit it himself, and said, "Do you know the transformation of the eighth district?" ”

"Yes, what's wrong?" Song Yuanchao asked rhetorically, the eighth district is not far from Song Yuanchao's home, go out from Song Yuanchao's house and turn right, and then turn left on Petain Road and go all the way to the end is the eighth district, this is a very famous area in Shanghai, the hometown of Xu Guangqi, a celebrity in the Ming Dynasty, is in the eighth district, and his cemetery is also in Guangqi Park near the eighth district.

"This renovation of the eighth district will demolish a lot of places, especially the intersection of the core area of the eighth district, the school near the church, the women's and children's association, and the cultural center. In addition, the Sixth Department Store will also be rebuilt, and according to the city and district plans, this area will become a new commercial district in the future. ”

"Isn't that great?" Of course, Song Yuanchao knows this plan, the geographical location of the eighth district is very good, it is the main road from the southwest of Shanghai to the city, and the subway line 1 currently under construction passes through the eighth district, taking into account various factors, the demolition and renovation project of the eighth district has been said last year, and this year has begun to officially start.

In the future, District 8 will become an important business district in the southwest of Shanghai, which is proven by history. But why is Gu Jie mentioning this? What does he have to do with the project in District 8?

When Gu Jiezai carefully explained the situation to Song Yuanchao, Song Yuanchao understood what was going on. It turned out that because Gu Jie's boutique clothing store is now famous in Shanghai, the district thought of the later commercial layout when it renovated the eighth district.

The transformation of commercial areas, after the transformation is not only to build a few new buildings and shopping malls, but also to attract investment, especially those shopping malls need strong strength of companies to settle in, so as to achieve commercial effects and attract enough popularity for development.

Gu Jie is now quite famous in this industry, so he is naturally targeted, and the district sent people to talk to Gu Jie a few times, hoping that Gu Jie can cooperate with the district to intervene at the same time as the transformation of the eighth district, and then open a large-scale department store in the eighth district after the transformation is completed.

For this project, Gu Jie is not very interested, mainly for two reasons.

The first reason is that the investment involved in this intervention is really not small, and this time the renovation is carried out by the district, in order to transform the district specially set up a commercial company, all the projects are operated by this company, and most of the commercial buildings and real estate built after the operation are also owned by this company.

Gu Jie's intervention, in addition to spending a lot of money, but it does not account for a large proportion of the whole, and whether it is a commercial building or real estate, the final property right cannot be Gu Jie's, only the right of priority lease. As for the rest, it relies on the dividends of some shares, but does not actually participate in the operation, after all, this commercial company is a state-owned enterprise, how can Gu Jie's private capital directly participate in the operation?

The second reason is that once Gu Jie intervenes and opens a large-scale department store here, Gu Jie has no bottom in his heart whether it is investment or management. Although Gu Jie's current boutique clothing scale is not small, and there are three stores in Shanghai, a single boutique clothing and a department store are completely different concepts, and Gu Jie has never done such a project.

After finishing speaking, Gu Jie shook his head and said, "To put it bluntly, the funds in the district are tight, and you want to find a way from me." You say, how much money can I get out? Besides, I don't have any bottom at all to run a department store, so let's just take the money, this money is not blown by the wind, such a big investment, if I lose it, I won't cry to death? ”

"What are their conditions?" Song Yuanchao asked.

Gu Jie said the conditions offered, and after speaking, he said: "I didn't give me an exact promise, just told me that I could give me shares, as for the return or something, it depends on the future development, this risk is too great...... ”

"Shares? How many shares can I take? What percentage? Song Yuanchao was slightly stunned and asked.

Gu Jie was a little puzzled when he saw Song Yuanchao's expression, but he still told Song Yuanchao about the situation, and after listening to it, Song Yuanchao thought about it.

At the end of this year, that is, on December 19, the stock market in Shanghai will officially open.

This is an important event after the reform and opening up, and now there are only about two months left before this time.

The reopening of the mainland's stock market after decades of disruption is significant, and it also marks the beginning of joint-stock companies.

The commercial company in the eighth district, Song Yuanchao knew about this company, which is a state-owned enterprise with a large scale, and it is also a joint-stock enterprise. In later generations, the stocks of the commercial companies in the eighth district performed quite well on the stock market, especially because they held a large number of high-quality real estate properties in their hands, and their income has been very stable, plus there are some department stores under the company, which can be regarded as a very good company.

Historically, the renovation of the 8th district has been quite successful, and after the reform and opening up, similar renovations have been carried out throughout Shanghai, with the creation of a prosperous business circle as the core. However, in terms of actual operation, among all the regional transformations, only the transformation of the eighth district is the most successful, of course, this does not include the three-piece area that has not yet appeared in Jiangdong and the future of Jiangdong, which has just been opened this year, which is an exception.

If it is possible to get shares from the commercial company in District 8 through the current cooperation method, this transaction will not be a loss, but a big profit. Of course, Song Yuanchao is interested in the return on investment in the transformation of the eighth district, rather than the so-called department store industry, which is consistent with Gu Jie's view.

Thinking of this, Song Yuanchao directly told Gu Jie that he was not interested in the investment of the department store, but he was somewhat interested in the commercial cooperation investment in the transformation of the eighth district, after all, the current eighth district is a commercial point, coupled with the advantages of the geographical environment and the first subway line that will be opened in the next few years, the prosperity of the eighth district should not be bad in the future.

What's more, the commercial companies have promised to give shares, and the project of the Shanghai stock market has already been determined. The Shanghai Stock Exchange will be established next month, and then the Shanghai Stock Market will be officially launched in another month, Gu Jie is not clear about this matter, but Song Yuanchao is clear.

After listening to Song Yuanchao's explanation, Gu Jie was stunned for a while, and then asked if this matter was reliable. When Song Yuanchao told him exactly that both the stock exchange and the stock market were ironclad, Gu Jie was also interested for a while, and his attitude changed instantly.

A stock that cannot be listed, and a share that can be listed on the stock market, these are two completely different concepts. As a shareholder of Shenghua, Gu Jie was of course aware of this difference, so when he learned of this situation, Gu Jie couldn't help but think of the possible return on investment. Moreover, he has special trust in Song Yuanchao's sources and judgment, not to mention that Song Yuanchao is also very interested in this matter, Gu Jie naturally will not miss it.

The two immediately discussed this matter, and after discussing for more than an hour, they reached a preliminary agreement, and then Gu Mingli went to talk to the district, as for how to invest and how to convert the invested shares, Song Yuanchao gave a boundary, as long as everything is negotiable in this boundary, but if it exceeds this boundary, then there is no need to cooperate.

Remembering Song Yuanchao's words one by one, Gu Jie smiled after listening to it and said that it was a loss to tell Song Yuanchao about this today, otherwise he would have almost missed it. Song Yuanchao still thinks deeply, he will go to talk to someone about this matter tomorrow, and contact Song Yuanchao as soon as there is news when the time comes.

was chatting happily, Luo Yang was also here, Gu Jie hadn't seen Luo Yang for a long time, greeted him with a smile, and asked Luo Yang about their filming, and said a few words if there is a suitable role for him to leave one, he has never made a movie in his life, and it is a good experience to try it.

Luo Yang laughed and said that there is no problem with this trivial matter, a role is just given to whom, not the protagonist. I'm afraid that Gu Jie is usually too busy, and they have to run around when they don't make movies in one place many times, so when the time comes, greet Gu Jie in advance, if he wants to come, Luo Yang promises to arrange it for him.
