Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

   Chapter 628 The Plaza Opens

"What did you say?"

   Yang Chen looked surprised, obviously he didn't expect Wu Jiangtao to come to such a hand, and it would be fine to distribute free candy along the way, but he even had to distribute it to the whole city.

   Seeing his big boss's reaction was so big, Wu Jiangtao opened his mouth and wanted to explain.

   This is a big New Year’s Eve, and who doesn’t have children, as long as these candies can be put on the table during the New Year’s Day, then Carrefour Plaza will not be famous.

In order to expand the influence, Wu Jiangtao instructed Carrefour employees not only to distribute candy along the way, but also to prepare for the New Year, no matter whether everyone buys something or not, as long as they enter the Carrefour Plaza, even if they are visiting, before leaving, they will also Grab a handful of candy and go home.

  Good guy, Yang Chen was stunned when he heard it. He didn't know that firewood, rice, oil, and salt were expensive. Although a candy or two was not worth the money, don't forget that the capital of the Great Celestial Dynasty has nearly 10 million people.

One for each person, that is 10 million, starting from a handful of at least ten, that is 100 million, and it will continue until the New Year, which is still half a month away from the New Year, and it will continue to be distributed. How much candy is needed.

   One Billion or Two Billion?

   "Boss, we have a short time to enter the capital, how can we open up the situation in a short time without this method?

   Now there is also a feedback activity in Xiangjiang. Although the capital has just opened, as long as everyone is attracted, no matter whether the big guy buys something or not, even if it is a process, it can still leave an impact on people.

  If all the people in the city have come to our square and everyone knows it, then we will be able to gain a foothold in the capital.

   Next, Carrefour Plaza and supermarket stores still need to expand, rather than slowly affecting each family, it is better to build a reputation from the beginning and let everyone know…”

   Wu Jiangtao looked at Yang Chen eagerly, for fear that something was wrong, Yang Chen sent him back to Xiangjiang.

   To be honest, before he came to the inland, he might have had some resistance to this side, but after arriving in the inland, Wu Jiangtao's vision suddenly became much higher.

  Compared with Southeast Asia and other regions, although most of the rural areas in the inland are not rich, the potential of each city is very large.

  Especially in big cities like Beijing and Shanghe, although they are not as prosperous as Xiangjiang, they are not comparable to other countries in terms of urban population size.

  Population is the foundation of all economic development. If there is no reform and opening up in the interior, it will be fine, but now the interior has begun to take action for economic development.

   No matter how long this reform and opening up lasts, as long as it persists for a few years, it is enough to cause huge changes.

   As the saying goes, quantity leads to qualitative change.

  Anything in billions is an astronomical number.

  Especially in the coastal areas, there is a vast market with a population of one billion behind it. Once the reform and opening up is successful, it will inevitably explode with astonishing consumption power.

   Therefore, what Wu Jiangtao is thinking about now is to launch the Carrefour signboard as soon as possible, so that more people know about it, regardless of temporary interests.

   At the foot of the emperor, the capital of the imperial city.

   Once Carrefour takes root here, its influence is far from comparable to Shanghi or Shenzhen Special Economic Zone.

  The capital has a population of nearly 10 million, and half of them are family members of officials. If you count relatives, friends and old friends, the number is even more.

   Up and down, this is a thousand-year-old tradition in our country.

   As the political center of the country, the development of the capital will inevitably bring certain influences to other regions.

   As long as Carrefour can make a name for itself here, it will be much easier to enter other inland cities in the future.

   Although Wu Jiangtao is not a political player, he can be a businessman. Others may not be good, but when it comes to making money, his mind is definitely not comparable to ordinary people.

   After listening to Wu Jiangtao's explanation, Yang Chen thought for a while, and then he came to understand that compared with Carrefour's ability to quickly establish a foothold in the capital, this thing is really not worth a lot of money.

   He had such a big reaction earlier, mainly because he was frightened by the amount of candy he needed. After all, there are so many people in the capital. Once the free delivery is opened, the number is absolutely unimaginable.

   And these days, things like candy are definitely not cheap. Children in ordinary people's homes are not as happy as children in later generations, and they are afraid of tooth decay if they eat candy.

   "Manager Wu, can you supply this candy? Don't run out of half of the candy by then, and the effect will be greatly reduced."

After   's thoughts changed, Yang Chen's considerations naturally changed.

   Seeing this, Wu Jiangtao finally breathed a sigh of relief, he knew that his boss was not a stingy person, so he could let go of his hands and feet next.

   So, he quickly said: "Boss, don't worry, yesterday Manager Han has negotiated with the major candy suppliers in the capital, and we don't need to worry about it until the end of the Chinese New Year."

   said, Wu Jiangtao paused and continued: "If it's not too late, Manager Han and the others would like to establish several candy brands, so that they can take the opportunity to win the candy supply in the capital in one fell swoop."

  The entire capital has a population of nearly 10 million. The consumption of sugar-related commodities is an astronomical figure every year. If it can be won, it will definitely be a profitable business.

  It’s a pity, everyone is not a fool. Others are willing to supply candy because they want to make money. If Han Wenguang and others want to borrow chicken to lay eggs, it is a pipe dream.

   One trick is fresh, eat all over the sky.

  Wu Jiangtao did not know that his propaganda would eventually become the most important trick for Carrefour to open up various markets in the future.

   This is also an unexpected surprise.

   Soon, the charter king and his party arrived as scheduled, and there were quite a few members of the business delegation to the north, and all of them were there.

   "A-Chen, you are so silent, making such a big noise, really, wherever you go, you are indispensable..."

  The charter king didn't know what to say, he shook his head secretly in his heart, 'I am really old and have too many worries, so I am not as strong as a young man. ’

   Thinking about the courage to crash into the sea when I was young, now it is really lost.

  Yang Chen grinned and said, "Uncle Bao, I can't swim against your old man in the sea, but on this land, the kid is still young, so I won't hit you."

   "You stinky boy" the charter king laughed and scolded.

   "Haha..." Huo Daheng and the others couldn't help laughing when they saw Yang Chen deliberately putting on that smug face, and when they saw him teasing the king of the boat.

   Just as the ribbon-cutting ceremony was about to start, several sedans with police cars drove over.

   Seeing the car in the middle, Yang Chen didn't have to breathe a sigh of relief, he secretly said, "This time it's finally stable."

  The pace was not slow, and he led the crowd to meet him.
