Pioneer of the Rebirth Era

Regardless of whether it is wrong or correct, although what you Yang Dongxu said still sounds a bit exaggerated to Bai Qian. But she is obviously not an ordinary person, and she has some understanding of the management and operating models of some domestic or foreign companies.

Therefore, although what Yang Dongxu said sounds very exaggerated, there is indeed room for maneuver. Of course, you cannot just set up a shell company, if you really plan to enter the cosmetics industry.

Apart from other things, we must have our own production base. If we have the conditions, we must also set up an independent research laboratory. Although we currently OEM or leave production to other factories, we just need to build and maintain the brand ourselves.

.

But after all, she is used to working in the real industry, so this kind of operation seems hollow to Bai Qian. She always feels hollow under her feet, and her heart is not at ease.

Of course, this is all for later. Although you, Yang Dongxu, suggested that she choose the cosmetics industry, it is not impossible to choose other ones from the three previously set goals. In terms of her career, she will ask Yang Dongxu for advice, but whether to pursue it will be up to her.

Make a decision.

"What happened when you were kidnapped last time?" Bai Qian, who had her own ideas, did not continue to discuss this matter with Yang Dongxu, but asked about another matter that she was concerned about.

In fact, Yang Dongxu had told her about this matter on the phone before, but she was always a little worried before he asked her clearly in person. And although this matter had passed for some time, the aftermath had calmed down.

"I don't have any specific clues yet, but there must be a black hand operating behind it. As for whether this black hand is the people who invested in chips before, or other people I have offended over the years, I can't be sure yet." Yang Dongxu raised his eyebrows.

For a moment.

In fact, he has been paying attention to this matter. Du Fei's original trip to the Middle East was postponed because of this matter. He was specially responsible for investigating this matter. Even Wu Aibing participated in it, and Yang Dongxu also quietly used all the resources he could use.

relation.

But the other party seemed to have disappeared suddenly, and the clues ended directly on the kidnapping case. No matter how he searched, he could not find any clues.

This undoubtedly became a thorn in his heart. After all, a thief can only commit a thief for a thousand days, and there is no one who can guard against a thief for a thousand days. If the mastermind behind the scenes is not found out, he will not be able to sleep well.

"Recently, the higher authorities have dealt with a few more people involved in the chip incident," Bai Qian said.

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Yang Dongxu's mouth, "Why, are you here to beg for mercy?"

"Someone said hello, but I didn't agree." Bai Qian didn't pay attention to the mocking smile on Yang Dongxu's face, because she knew that the smile was not for her, but for those who were involved in the chip before.

"It's right not to agree. Even if there was no kidnapping case like mine this time. Those involved in the chip incident would be given an advantage if they were sentenced according to the law." Yang Dongxu sneered.

"I know this. I am just telling you this to remind you that it is best not to cause trouble recently. Of course these people have to be dealt with, but as one of the parties involved, you are also hated by many people." Bai Qian reminded

.

"I understand the importance clearly." Yang Dongxu nodded.

Although I really want to clap my hands and put on a Wong Fei-hung posture, hook my fingers at these people, and let them all come together without fear. After a confrontation, I can still say in an understatement: "Anyone who can fight can

No."

But the time to start the war is obviously very wrong. Any turmoil around the time of the change of leadership may be exploited and turned into a major event beyond our control.

So at this time, even though he was angry, he was not afraid of those involved in the chip incident. But during the period before the change of leadership, it was the most correct choice to be a safe grandson.

In short, a smooth transition is an unshakable premise. Whoever jumps out to cause trouble at this time will get no good results. Another batch of people involved in the chip incident have been dealt with.

Although on the surface it seems to have something to do with his kidnapping, in fact it is just an excuse. It is possible that the bosses above discovered some discordant noises, and then used these people to make a fool of themselves.

After all, the time for the change of leadership is approaching, and the overall situation must be stable at this time.

...

The overall political situation needs to be stable, but the business economy is in full swing. For example, this year in addition to the game industry that has been criticized, and the real estate industry that continues to be hot.

Other domestic industries are also blooming, and what Yang Dongxu is undoubtedly concerned about is the retail industry. Not to mention the invasion of the domestic market by international giants Carrefour and Wal-Mart.

In China alone, Millennium is not the only retail giant from the beginning. Gome, Hualian, China Resources Vanguard, Suning, RT-Mart... In short, even without the invasion of foreign retail giants, the domestic retail industry is still a chaotic war between princes.

The fight was brutal.

Especially in the past two years, even if Millennium took the lead to expand its presence across the country, as other companies have stabilized their bases and penetrated surrounding markets, everyone has begun to focus on the meat in other people's bowls.

Yang Dongxu, who was the first to attack, thought it was Gome. After all, Suning is now competing against them, and there is no domestic rival in the electrical appliance industry. And in the past two years, he has taken advantage of his own stores all over the country to start to compete with large comprehensive supermarkets.

But the wary Gome didn't attack, and Hualian, who didn't pay much attention at first, came out from the side. Everyone likes to call Hualian Supermarket "Magic City Hualian".

But in fact, Magic City Hualian is just the predecessor of Hualian Supermarket, and now it belongs to Jinan Hualian Company. Compared with the layout of Millennium Supermarket in commercially prosperous CBD areas, high-end residential areas and other chain stores, it occupies what seems to be the most fertile area in the retail industry.

The place.

Hualian Supermarket found another way and did not go to the city center or to high-end residential areas because it would be too costly. Moreover, the housing prices have soared in the past two years, which has made his capital chain to open a branch even tighter.

His layout only goes straight to the stations, especially train stations and large bus stations. I don’t know since when you can always see a Hualian supermarket, it is either big or small. But no matter what, Hualian Supermarket

This brand seems to have spread all over the country overnight.

Whether you are at a train station or a bus station, it is recognized that the prices for buying things are extremely high, especially for drinks and the like. If you don’t buy them in advance, you will definitely get ripped off.

Hualian Supermarket saw this opportunity and directly lowered the prices that had been driven up near the station. Buying here is no more expensive than buying elsewhere.

Such a move instantly caused tourists entering the station to flood into Hualian Supermarket. Especially when Hualian suddenly opened a local specialty counter, it became even more popular.

After all, things are not expensive, so it feels quite honorable to bring some local specialty products back home from other places.

So originally Yang Dongxu was going to call Lei Jun to Yanjing and focus on the real-name registration of mobile phone numbers. But Hu Dashan and Zhang Tianming arrived first.

"200 stores in three months, and the plan is to open 1,500 stores in one year. This plan is really ambitious." Looking at the detailed information about the expansion of Hualian Supermarket brought by Zhang Tianming, Yang Dongxu rubbed his chin.

Looking at the two people: "What do you think of this matter?"

Hu Dashan glanced at Zhang Tianming and signaled her to tell her, and Zhang Tianming nodded gratefully. This action made Yang Dongxu pause, wondering what was going on between the two of them.

In fact, nothing happened between the two of them. Hu Dashan was shocked when Hualian suddenly appeared at first, so he found Zhang Tianming and asked him to take the initiative to collect detailed information about Hualian's sudden expansion.

While discussing with Zhang Tianliang about taking the blame, Hu Dashan did not have the habit of shirking the blame. Moreover, he had regarded the shares of Millennium Supermarket as his inherited family business.

Therefore, the better the development of Millennium Supermarket, the richer his family fortune will be. Zhang Tianming is undoubtedly more suitable to be the CEO of Millennium Supermarket than him, and he is a person who can help him earn more family fortune.

Therefore, compared to other leaders who would blame others when something happened, he decided to take the initiative to take the blame. He still understood Yang Dongxu. He seemed cold and ruthless but actually missed his old feelings. The sudden appearance of Hualian was certainly due to his negligence.

It did not prevent the other party from expanding.

But this matter is big when it comes to big things, but it is just like that when it comes to small things. Yang Dongxu has never been afraid of competitors, so if he takes the initiative to take responsibility, the most he will get is a few words of reprimand, and the shares will not be moved. And the shares will not move him.

Yes, that means no loss to him.

Zhang Tianming was undoubtedly moved by Hu Dashan's initiative to stand up and take responsibility, so the two of them had a drama about Lin Xianghe.

Later, Zhang Tianming analyzed the situation for him, which made Hu Dashan more impressed and more determined that Zhang Tianming was indeed more suitable for the position of CEO.

After getting Zhang Tianming's explanation, Hu Dashan can actually show his face in front of Yang Dongxu and show off his talents. Although this is Zhang Tianming's idea, as the major shareholder of Millennium Supermarket, he can use it.

Tianming obviously didn't dare to have any objections.

But Hu Dashan's character is obviously very good, and the previous Lin Xianghe did not do one thing in front of others but another behind the scenes. Therefore, Zhang Tianming felt that it was very sober to meet an old boss with such a character.

"I think Hualian is not in great danger. Our main target is still Gome and Carrefour," Zhang Tianming said.

"Oh?" Yang Dongxu looked at Zhang Tianming with interest.

"Targeting the station this time is certainly a good card played by Hualian, but although this card is very good, it also has limitations. Millennium is a large comprehensive supermarket. And there are residents near the station, but they still cannot compete with the office workers and high-end people in the CBD.

Compared with the purchasing power of residents in the community.

The most purchased products at the station are some snacks, instant noodles and other products. When the other party is ready, they can add some fruits. As for vegetables, meat, etc., the specialty products are okay. It is difficult to get involved in daily necessities for home life.

Not at all." Zhang Tianming said.

Yang Dongxu couldn't help but nodded silently.

I have to say that making Zhang Tianming the general manager of Millennium Supermarket is indeed the most correct choice. When I heard that Hualian suddenly expanded and seemed to be trying to catch up with Millennium Supermarket.

Yang Dongxu was also shocked, because he was very familiar with the Hualian Supermarket brand. When RT-Mart and others could only linger in the city, Hualian Supermarket had opened to the small towns below.

However, after being surprised, he quickly calmed down, because although Hualian's rise was very powerful, the initial confidentiality work was also done very well. Later, large-scale stations across the country were opened at the same time.

But just because he knew the existence of Hualian, he also had a general understanding of Hualian's business model. For example, in the previous generation, although Hualian was very impressive, its model had limitations as Zhang Tianming said.

At least in big cities, Yang Dongxu has heard of Suning Mall and Gome Mall, but Hualian seems to have always been an ordinary supermarket from beginning to end. The mall has not been developed, and the large stores have almost no reputation, and all brand values ​​are

Above the supermarket.

Therefore, he is someone who has been there and understands that it is normal for Hualian, which seems to be a big threat, not to pose a threat to Millennium Supermarket, which has always been a large-scale supermarket. But Zhang Tianming, as an authority figure, can actually see this directly. His personal talents are undoubtedly

Yang Dongxu's heart improved to a new level.

"How's it going at Carrefour?" Yang Dongxu asked.

Knowing Hualian's business model, he naturally knows that Gome seems to be the closest to Millennium in terms of strength now, but the threat is not great because Lao Huang will join in a few years.

Therefore, compared to Gome, the rising threat of Suguo is actually greater. As for Suning, it focuses on home appliances, although it will definitely get involved in large stores later. But the main focus is still on home appliances and Millennium Supermarket is not really

opponent.

Therefore, the biggest threat to Millennium Supermarket now is Carrefour, and even Wal-Mart has to lean back. Because Wal-Mart's model is destined to only survive in first- and second-tier cities and cannot spread its tentacles across the country.

But Carrefour is different. This is a real hungry wolf, with capital and fighting ability. Although it knows that the final victory will definitely belong to itself.

But a few years later, when Carrefour committed suicide and exited the domestic market, people were skinny when they came in and were already fat and oily when they left.

And Yang Dongxu obviously didn't want to watch the other party leave after making so much money, seemingly in embarrassment but actually making a lot of money.

"After being blocked by us last time when they went south, they have been consolidating the market in the north and second-tier cities during this period. But I got the latest news that they are planning to open ten stores at once in Shenzhen, Guangdong and other places." Zhang Tianming looked solemn.

: "Every store is planned to be located opposite our supermarket."

"This is because you are not convinced by losing and want to try again." Yang Dongxu said with a sneer.

"We, the Millennium, are not afraid of anyone." Zhang Tianming said confidently, and then changed his tone: "If you are afraid, you are afraid. The other party is taking advantage of the fact that it is a foreign company."

"That's a question." Yang Dongxu nodded: "What do you think of this matter?"

"Big policies are nothing. Even if the country wants to develop its economy rapidly, it cannot be too biased towards foreign investment. We are just afraid that during competition, the other party will label us as disrupting the market and then bring a group of foreign companies to protest."
