Strictly speaking, Haitian Business Center does not belong to the direct branch of Changda Group, it should be an enterprise under the jurisdiction of Changda Real Estate Company, so Lao Xue should have direct jurisdiction over Haitian Business Center.

Maybe it was a moment of negligence, or deliberate, Guan Yuntian has never been clear about the jurisdiction of Haitian Business Center, since the past year or so, whether it is the end of the building, or the interior and exterior decoration, or the current commercial operation, basically Guan Yuntian is directly responsible, and Lao Chu has anything to do, and he also reports directly to Guan Yuntian.

In fact, Guan Yuntian has a clear position on this issue, that is, Haitian Business Center is not a second-level company of Changda Group, it is a third-level company under Changda Real Estate Company, but it has not formed the internal documents of Changda Group, which may be Guan Yuntian's negligence in his work.

The reason why Lao Xue was not allowed to intervene in the affairs of the Haitian Business Center was that there were three reasons: first, when he first took over the Haitian Business Center, Lao Xue was still presiding over the development work of Changda Real Estate Company in Huayuan City, and he had no time to take care of it; second, after Lao Xue came to the provincial capital, the finishing work of the construction of the Haitian Business Center had been completed, and he could not interfere in other work; third, the purpose of Lao Xue's visit to the provincial capital was to preside over the development of new projects of Changda Real Estate Company, and Guan Yuntian did not want to distract his energy, nor did he want Lao Xue to interfere in the affairs of Haitian Business Center。

For these reasons, Lao Xue may or may not fully understand, after all, there is no formal and clear provision.

Seeing the four merchant owners, Lao Xue frowned, "Four of you, please take a seat, you are the merchants of Haitian Business Center, do you have any questions to reflect, I'm afraid you're in the wrong place, right?"

"Mr. Xue, we just want to report the problem to you, and we didn't find the wrong place. ”

"No, no, no, Mr. Chu is the general manager of Haitian Business Center, if there is any problem, you should report it to him. Old Xue said.

The four of them looked at each other and looked at each other, "Mr. Xue, the situation we reported to you may be related to Mr. Chu." ”

"What? It has something to do with Mr. Chu, what's going on?" Lao Xue suddenly became alert.

The four of them roughly explained the situation to Lao Xue, "Not long after the shopping mall opened, we found that something was wrong, and we mentioned it to Mr. Chu many times in person, but he prevaricated us, and finally it was over." ”

Lao Xue thought for a while, "This matter involves Mr. Chu, I suggest that you better report it to Mr. Guan, chairman of Changda Group." ”

"Mr. Guan, we don't know each other, is he here?"

"I'm not here today, he's back at headquarters, and he'll be back in a few days. ”

"How do we know when he's back, and when he's free?"

"Well, you leave me a phone number, and when he comes, I'll call you when he's free. ”

Lao Xue's position was a bit delicate, he thought about it for a while, and decided not to report what he knew to Guan Yuntian, it was best to let the merchants report directly to Guan Yuntian.

Five days later, Guan Yuntian came to the office of Changda Real Estate Company in the provincial capital again, handled some official business in the morning, and at about three o'clock in the afternoon, he heard a knock on the door of the office, and he habitually responded: "Please come in!"

When the door opened, I saw four unfamiliar faces standing in the doorway, "Who are you looking for?"

"You're Mr. Guan, right? ”

"Looking for me?" Guan Yuntian saw that the two men and two women did not look like villains, "Come into the house and talk, where are you from?

"Mr. Guan, we are the merchants of the Haitian Business Center shopping mall, and we have something to report to you?"

Said a teenage woman who dressed fashionably and spoke well.

"The entire Haitian Business Center is in charge of Mr. Chu there, if there is any situation, you should report to him, I don't directly care about the business center. "Guan Yuntian said.

"Mr. Guan, we have reported these things to Mr. Chu many times, he prevaricated us, and then it was over, we estimate that these things are related to him. ”

These few words made Guan Yuntian pay attention, "Oh, what has to do with him?"

"In the process of attracting investment in the Haitian Business Center shopping plaza, we clearly promised to only operate medium and high-end goods, and did not allow low-end goods to enter, but after the opening, we found that there were at least thirty or forty merchants in the entire shopping mall dealing in small goods, and it was said that their booth rental fees were lower than ours, which was a clear violation of the commitment in the agreement. The fashionable lady said.

"After discovering this situation, did you mention it to Mr. Chu? In addition, how do you know that the stall rental fee is lower for merchants who deal in small commodities?" Guan Yuntian said.

"We have talked to him, but there is no follow-up, and we suspect that he is deliberately favoring the merchants. Therefore, we have to report it to his superiors. As for the rental fee, I didn't know it at first, but after a long time, everyone was operating in the same shopping mall, and we didn't see each other when we looked up and looked down every day, and there was always some communication when we got acquainted, which we overheard. ”

Guan Yuntian's expression was solemn, "You have done the right thing, because the business positioning of the Haitian Business Center Shopping Plaza is a decision made by the board of directors of Changda Group after full discussion and analysis, and we must adhere to the middle and high-end positioning unchanged, if it is reduced to a small commodity market, there will be no way out! Everyone rest assured, if the situation is true, it will definitely be corrected, because this situation violates our principles." ”

After the two men and two women left, Guan Yuntian sat there and wondered, what happened to this old Chu?

Guan Yuntian originally wanted to go to the Haitian Business Center shopping plaza to see the business of the merchants with his own eyes, but he considered that if he met Lao Chu, it would arouse suspicion. So, he called his driver to the office, "Master Wang, you go to the shopping mall and take a look around to see if there are any merchants dealing in small goods." ”

It wasn't until after work that Lao Wang returned to the office and hurriedly came over to report to Guan Yuntian.

"How is it, have you found a merchant dealing in small commodities?" asked Guan Yuntian when he met.

"I walked around the floors and did find merchants dealing in small goods, and to be honest, they looked very eye-catching, and they didn't fit in with the stalls in front of and around, because the other merchants were dealing in high-quality goods, and it was easy to separate them. ”

Guan Yuntian nodded and didn't say anything more.

At eight o'clock in the morning of the next day, Guan Yuntian dialed Lao Chu's phone, "Mr. Chu, I am busy with the work at hand, please come to the office." ”

At around half past nine, Lao Chu came to the door of Guan Yuntian's office in the provincial capital, knocked on the door twice, and pushed the door in without waiting for a response, "Mr. Guan, do you have something to do with me?"

"Sit down, I've got a few words for you. ”

Seeing Guan Yuntian's serious expression, Lao Chu was a little uneasy, he pulled a chair and sat opposite, "Mr. Guan, what's the matter with you?"

"The mall has been open for more than a month, and the business is still normal, right?"

"Business situation?" It turned out to inquire about the business status of the shopping center, and Lao Chu's heart finally let go, "The passenger flow is gradually increasing, the turnover of merchants is also growing, and the newly opened commercial institutions are basically like this, at the beginning the people know less, and as time goes by, the popularity has expanded, and the passenger flow and turnover will naturally increase." ”

Guan Yuntian nodded in agreement, but his purpose was obviously not on this issue, "The management aspect is still going well, right? After all, you are also the first time to contact business management."

Hm. ”

"Mr. Guan, the management of this business model is not as complex as the operation of this unit, and the management is relatively simple. Since the opening, all aspects have been okay, at least there have been no problems. Lao Chu said confidently.

"Are the merchants of the shopping mall operating in full accordance with the requirements?"

"This ----, Mr. Guan, I don't understand what you mean...... ，”

"Isn't that clear enough, and are there any merchants who don't follow the requirements?"

"You mean...... Mr. Guan, did you hear who said anything?"

"It doesn't matter who says or doesn't say anything, bring you here, I just want to hear what you say, and I must tell the actual situation. Guan Yuntian's tone was a bit non-negotiable.

Lao Chu lowered his head, and after a few minutes, he drooped his head and said weakly: "Mr. Guan, I violated the company's regulations, and I am sorry for your trust and trust." ”

"What's the matter? Look at what you're talking about. Guan Yuntian's expression became relaxed.

"Here's the thing," Lao Chu truthfully explained to Guan Yuntian the situation of lowering the standard to attract investment.

"Listen to what you mean, lowering the admission standard is purely to open before the Spring Festival as planned, and there is no other purpose?"

"Other than that, there is no purpose. At that time, my idea was that I must seize the Spring Festival, the golden consumption season of the year, and open before the Spring Festival, which is beneficial and harmless to the Haitian Business Center shopping mall, and the merchants who attracted investment in advance also asked not to miss the Spring Festival, the peak consumption season, so without your consent, I relaxed the entry conditions without authorization, which violated the company's principles. Lao Chu admitted frankly.

"How many such merchants are there in the mall?"

"Less than 10 percent, about 30 or 40 in all. ”

"I want to ask, if I didn't do this at that time, wouldn't the business center be able to open?"

"Mr. Guan, my worries may be a little unnecessary, but there are too many vacant stalls in the mall, and I am afraid of giving customers the impression that business is not good, so I always want to make the mall lively. ”

Guan Yuntian nodded and smiled, "I understand this idea, and I also want to know, among these merchants who have relaxed the admission conditions, are there any friends of yours?"

As soon as he heard this, Lao Chu waved his hand again and again, and hurriedly cleared up the relationship, "Mr. Guan, I can swear that I didn't know any of these merchants before, and I didn't have any contact with them. ”

"Well, let me ask you another question, you lowered the conditions to allow these merchants to enter, they don't have some kind of transaction with you, right?"

This kind of half-truth and half-truth question made Lao Chu's face flush anxiously, "Mr. Guan, no matter who said anything, as the saying goes, the body is not afraid of shadows, I have interacted with all merchants openly, I have never drunk a sip of water from them, smoked a cigarette from them, if the company suspects something, I am willing to actively cooperate with the investigation." ”

Guan Yuntian smiled, "What are you anxious about?" I just asked casually, and I didn't say how you were. You are right, the body is not afraid of the shadow, and the managers of Changda Group should have such self-confidence. ”

Lao Chu felt that it was necessary to further clarify this issue, "Mr. Guan, I am relatively timid, even in the original unit, when it comes to this issue, I am cautious, lest I be misunderstood." Changda Group is a private enterprise, since I went to Haitian Business Center to preside over the work, in foreign exchanges, I pay more attention to grasp the proportion, try not to let the outside world say anything. ”

"You don't need to explain, what a person does is in everyone's eyes, and there is a fair judgment on the merits. ”
