Chapter 35: Joining
"How's going on at the design institute?"
In the open space, Yang Xun was wearing a hard hat, holding a leather briefcase in his hand, a brand-new white shirt on his upper body, without any wrinkles, dark blue trousers on his lower body, and big scalp shoes under his feet.
The vice president next to him was sweating: "I'm measuring!" It is estimated that it will take a while before the drawings come out. β
It's not that Yang Xun doesn't want to build the building directly, but now the procedures are gradually formalized, especially in the port city of the East China Sea, which has begun to take off with the spring breeze of reform and opening up, the government attaches great importance to fire safety, for fear that something will go wrong.
Now it is at a time when reform and opening up are in full swing, and if something goes wrong at this time and affects the country's major principles and policies, then these officials in the East China Sea will be unable to escape the blame.
Although the words are somewhat exaggerated, in today's situation, while the economy is taking off rapidly, it has also promoted the acceleration of the formation of various functional departments and various procedures and systems.
"Mr. Yang, I heard that the bank has taken out a loan?" The vice president asked cautiously.
Yang Xun looks not tall, thin and small, and he doesn't look like a deterrent on the outside, but in the company, he is a man of his word, and his iron-faced selflessness is famous.
He is just a small vice president, although he is the person in charge of the construction of the new market, but in fact, he is running errands and doing chores, and the real one who has the final say is the president Yang in front of him.
This vice president is not a professional manager who Yang Xun deliberately poached from outside with a high salary, but an old brother who has been with Yang Xun for several years, although his ability is average, but his character is passable, and he is also a duck on the shelf.
Fortunately, Yang Xun personally asked everywhere, all he had to do was to give Yang Xun a hand and keep an eye on the progress, it was not too difficult.
Yang Xun looked at the vice president and said, "I just came down yesterday, what's the matter, I don't have any money in my hand?" β
"It's not!" The vice president hurriedly shook his head and explained: "You give me such a high salary, how can I have no money!" Aren't I worried that the bank loan will not be able to come out, which will affect the progress of our project? β
Yang Xun said: "Don't worry, with our electrical appliance market as collateral, the bank and the government can't wait for us to take out a loan from them and tie us to death on the ship in the East China Sea." β
The vice president was a little worried: "Mr. Yang, when will we be able to repay the loan with the bank so much?" β
Although Yang Xun's electrical appliance market makes money, but the annual profit is also limited, in order to take down this land, Yang Xun has used all the money that can be used, and even borrowed a lot outside, and now he has borrowed such a large amount of money from the bank.
When the time comes, not to mention his own salary and bonus, even Yang Xun, the now high-spirited big boss, will have to be finished.
Yang Xun looked at the vice president who he had picked up with his own hands, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and asked, "Scared?" β
"There is an old saying in Sichuan: the bold ride a dragon and a tiger, and the timid ride a rabbit and a chicken."
"The so-called wealth and danger are sought, in this world, there has never been a good thing about pie in the sky, if we want to make money, we must first take the risk of making money."
Yang Xun stretched out his fingers one by one and counted them to the vice president: "Loans are risks, and the unknown is risks, but if there are no such risks, this kind of beneficial thing, how can we get outsiders?" β
Yang Xun's words were indeed very convincing, and the vice president nodded again and again, revealing a look of deep understanding.
In fact, those projects that are easy to make money have already been done, and what is left to outsiders is not these high-risk, high-investment projects!
I saw Yang Xun turn around, look at the spacious open space in front of him that had not even laid the foundation, and gestured with open hands: "Look at us here, it is only three streets away from the city center, the location is good, and the flow of people is large.
After our mall is built, merchants throughout the East China Sea are scrambling to settle in our mall, and I will be able to earn back the capital just by collecting rentΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·"
Listening to Yang Xun looking forward to the future there, for some reason, the vice president and the people around him also yearned, maybe this is the charm of Yang Xun, that thin body, it seems to hide a powerful power that they can't reach.
Although Yang Xun said so, in fact, he was muttering in his heart at the moment, now there is such a big gap in his own account, if there is really something wrong with this shopping mall, then the family he has worked hard for so many years will have to be compensated, and it may not be enough.
Now Yang Xun is making a big gamble related to his own life, if he wins, he Yang Xun will be a dragon for nine days from now on, become famous, and truly complete his dream.
But if you loseΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
Yang Xun didn't dare to imagine what would happen to him if he lost the bet.
But Yang Xun has never been a timid person, thinking that back then, when he was cracking down on speculation, he dared to pick up steamed buns for sale, and the reform and opening up had just begun, he pondered about going to the Northeast to develop, and later because of Wang Chong's words, he decisively turned to Shencheng.
After the setback in Shencheng, Yang Xun did not choose to be tough and continue to stay in Shencheng, but took a fancy to Donghai, which had just embarked on the road of reform and opening up and was attracting foreign investment, and resolutely returned to Donghai with the savings he had saved for many years of hard work in Shencheng.
If it weren't for Yang Xun's decisiveness at that time, he would not have had the opportunity to win today's home appliance market, if he didn't resolutely return with funds at that time, leaving an excellent impression in front of the leadership team of Donghai, with his current strength, it is absolutely impossible to win this land, let alone take a loan from the bank to build a shopping mall.
But now all this has been done by Yang Xun.
The bidding machine for the design of the mall has ended, and the bidding for the construction will be carried out as soon as the drawings and estimated budget come out, and the construction team that won the bid can officially enter the site and start construction.
"You urge them to urge them at the design institute, let them grasp it, now for us, time is money, the sooner we start the construction can be ended one day earlier, the sooner it ends, we can get the money one day earlier and recover the cost."
Although the bank's loan is a low-interest loan given by the government, no matter how low the interest is, it is also interest, so much money is in the bank, and the interest to be repaid every day can be higher than the interest given by the bank.
The vice president has been working with Yang Xun for many years, so he naturally knows this truth, so he should nod his head and respond to this matter.
Jinling County, Hongwei Town, in the Jinxiu Textile Factory.
Song Yunping was personally staring at the last batch of goods out of the warehouse and getting on the car, ready to be sent to Jinzhou.
Now the name of splendid clothing in the East China Sea and Jinzhou has been completely launched, in Song Yunping did not hesitate to spend a lot of money, under the overwhelming advertising, in the East China Sea and Jinzhou two flagship stores have taken a firm foothold, attracting a large number of regular customers, affordable, the style is trendy and beautiful, and willing to spend money on advertising, engage in publicity.
In addition, those big brands abroad have not yet entered the country, and the splendid clothing that has sprung up, with its own beautiful and unique style, not to mention in China, at least now in the East China Sea and Jinzhou, is a unique ride, and the sales volume far exceeds those state-owned textile factories.
"Factory director, business is coming to the door again!" Song Yunping had just finished counting the goods, watching the driver close the door and lock it, and before he could catch his breath, the secretary hurriedly ran over.
Song Yunping asked, "Where did you come from?" β
The secretary hurriedly said: "I said that I came from several counties next to Donghai and Jinzhou, and I asked for the address of our factory from the flagship store, and I found it myself." β
Now the business in the factory is getting better and better, although the production line has been added, but the tailors who used to step on the sewing machine have not been fired, but have also increased their wages and jobs, and the production line can produce fabrics, but the clothes made are too rough.
Song Yunping understood a truth from the first day of the establishment of Splendid Clothing, if you want to make Splendid Clothing bigger and stronger, in addition to the good-looking style, the quality of the clothes is also the top priority, and there can be no sloppiness.
Today, there are hundreds of sewing machines in the factory alone, and when they are busy, the workers even have to work two shifts a day.
Today's Jinxiu Garment Factory, after the last new rabbit fur processing workshop and the addition of production lines, not only the production capacity has been greatly improved, but also the efficiency has been improved.
"How many counties are next to the East China Sea and Jinzhou?" Song Yunping's eyes lit up instantly, she was really sleepy and came to send pillows, now the two flagship stores in Donghai and Jinzhou have entered the stage of steady development, she is thinking about how to open the market of the surrounding counties, but she didn't think that she had not moved here, and people came to the door by themselves.
"Let's go, meet them!"
Today's Song Yunping is not the simple and ignorant girl she was at the beginning, after years of hard work, although she has not been able to completely transform, she already has a bit of the momentum of a strong woman in the workplace.
In the conference room, seven or eight middle-aged men and women sat on both sides, chattering at first, and as soon as the door of the conference room opened, everyone quieted down.
Looking at the female secretary who had just greeted them leading a woman with no pink on her face, although she was plain and facing the sky, she was clean and beautiful, and she had a lot of aura, but she was young, and she was puzzled.
"You have been waiting for a long time, let me introduce you to you, this is our Director Song!"
As he spoke, the secretary turned to Song Yunping and said, "Factory director, these are all friends from the East China Sea and the surrounding counties and cities of Jinzhou!" β
Before Song Yunping could speak, everyone got up one after another, said hello, and stepped forward to shake hands with Song Yunping, and the scene was almost chaotic.
Fortunately, Song Yunping was prepared, when even two lightly armed men in security uniforms rushed into the conference room and stopped in front of Song Yunping and the secretary.
Looking at the security guards who stopped in front of them, everyone realized that now they are in Jinling County, in the factory of splendid clothing, not on their one-third of an acre of land, not what they want, when they go to other people's land, they naturally have to follow other people's rules.
"Director Song, don't get me wrong, we don't mean anything else, we just want to shake hands with you and get to know you!"
Song Yunping said: "Of course it's okay to shake hands, but in order to avoid trouble like just now, let's avoid these red tapes first!" β
As soon as the words fell, without waiting for everyone to speak, Song Yunping took the opportunity to add a sentence: "You came to Jinling on purpose, won't you just shake hands with me!" β
"Director Song, I won't tell you, a few of us came here on purpose, we made a special inquiry in your flagship store, and I heard that you are now preparing to open the markets in the surrounding counties and cities of Donghai and Jinzhou?" A middle-aged man closest to Song Yunping looked at Song Yunping and said methodically.
"Yes, we do have that idea at the moment!" Song Yunping didn't hide from these people, but went straight to the point.
A thirty-year-old woman sitting diagonally opposite the man couldn't wait to ask, "I don't know what Director Song is planning?" β
Song Yunping had a smile on her face, and did not answer the woman's question directly, but said to everyone: "Our Splendid Clothing is different from other state-owned factories, Splendid Clothing is a private enterprise, so in terms of decision-making, I said that it can be counted, and you should have inquired about this before you came!" β
"Of course!"
"We all inquired before we came!"
"Director Song, if you have anything to say, just say it!"
Song Yunping said with a smile: "Our splendid clothing, recently just set the next development plan, just you came to the door, I don't sell it to you, you want to get goods from our splendid clothing, but there are conditions." β
"What are the conditions?" It was the thirty-year-old woman who spoke just now, and she was the most eager of all of them.
Song Yunping said: "First of all, the first point, the number of distribution in each county and city is determined by us, of course, this number is not set at the beginning, we will change the distribution volume according to your monthly sales, and you can also apply for it." β
"Secondly, with counties and cities as a unit, each county and city has the distribution of each county and city, and you can't take your own goods and sell them in other counties and cities!"
A fat man sitting next to the middle-aged man just now asked: "That is to say, the goods of each county and city can only be sold in which county and city, and cannot be sold in other counties and cities?" β
"That's right!" Song Yunping said: "We do this to avoid unnecessary competition, but also to maintain the price advantage of our splendid clothing!" β
"Anything else?"
"Then there is the price, we will add a sign on each piece of clothing, the price on it is the sales price, and during the peak season every year, we will increase the strength of the discount according to the sales volume in different regions."
"That's all?" The last woman sitting on Song Yunping's left knocked on the table and asked.
Song Yunping smiled and said: "Of course it's more than that, these are just the most basic rules, our current development plan is to join, with the two flagship stores in Donghai and Jinzhou as the core, and the surrounding counties and cities are all franchise stores." β
"What is a franchise store?"
"The meaning of the franchise store is that this store is not your own, which means that you and our splendid clothing jointly hold shares!"
"Co-shareholding? What about rent, water and electricity? β
"Of course, you bear these by yourself, at present, we will charge a franchise fee of 1,000 yuan, and after each piece of clothing is sold, we will take 20% of the profits, correspondingly, the location of each store and the decoration design, staff training, these are responsible for our Splendid Clothing."
"Aren't we going to work for you?" Immediately, some people were not happy, spread their hands, and expressed their dissatisfaction.
Song Yunping shook her head and said: "It's not to work for us, it's to cooperate with our splendid clothing, and we will sign a franchise contract at that time." β
It's just that everyone in the conference room who was still eager to try it just now frowned at this moment.
Song Yunping was not in a hurry, and said lightly: "You don't have to worry, next week, our franchise plan will be officially launched, you still have time, you can think about it slowly!" β
As soon as Song Yunping's voice fell, she sat on Song Yunping's left hand, and finally the thirty-seven or eighteen-year-old middle-aged woman stood up very decisively: "Don't think about it, I decided to join." β
Song Yunping was a little surprised, looking at this ordinary-looking woman, wearing light makeup, lying with Hong Kong-style curly hair, carrying a brown crocodile leather handbag, and carrying several gold rings on her hands, she got up with a smile, walked up to the woman, stretched out her hand and said, "Happy cooperation!" β
The woman stretched out her hand, shook hands with Song Yunping, but said with a smile: "Director Song, don't you ask me where I'm from?" What is your name? β
Song Yunping smiled and said, "Dare to ask this sister with a high surname?" Where is the fairy town? β
The smile on the woman's face became brighter and brighter, looking at Song Yunping's eyes, her eyes were full of interest: "My name is Lu Qingyi, a native of Jiangbei!" β
"Song Yunping!" Song Yunping was a little surprised, she really didn't expect this woman to come from Jiangbei.
