Technology Tycoon: From Real Estate Tycoon To Technology Overlord

He walked through the crowd all the way to his office.

Thanks to the advance greeting, several reports have been placed on the desk in Li Yu's office.

Not long after Li Yu sat down to check the report, Yang Manli came directly to the door after receiving the news that Li Yu was coming.

"Ta-ta-ta!!!"

"Come in!" Li Yu shouted directly when he heard the knock on the door.

With Li Yu's permission, Yang Manli immediately pushed open the door and walked in, followed by her assistant He Chunsui.

When Li Yu saw it was Yang Manli, he put down the report and got up and took Yang Manli and Yang Manli to the reception area.

"Where's Lu Yan?"

"Manager Lu was meeting with some suppliers, so I didn't disturb her. He Chunfei said quickly when Li Yu asked Lu Yan.

After listening to He Chunfei's explanation, Li Yu just nodded to express understanding and then turned to look at Yang Manli.

When Yang Manli saw Li Yu looking at her, she immediately told her why she came here.

"Mr. Li, after several rounds of recruitment expansion, the office area on this floor is already somewhat insufficient."

Li Yu had just passed the office area and naturally knew that what Yang Manli said was true. Currently, the office area on this floor is really stretched for the two projects of Tiansheng Department Store, Lejia and Tesco.

"So next week you and Xu Qing will contact you and ask her to rent out several floors in the Wanyue City office building to Tiansheng Department Store.

Then move the entire Lejia project team there first, and wait for the contract here to expire and move them all together. "

Li Yu gave his opinion after thinking for a moment.

Although Wansheng Zhiwu and Wansheng Department Store are both companies owned by Li Yu, all company accounts must be clear.

Therefore, whether it is Yang Manli's Wansheng Department Store or Chen Xiran's Wansheng Daily Chemical's office in the Wanyue City office building, they pay rent to Wansheng Real Estate according to the market price.

"Okay, I'll contact Mr. Xu next week."

Yang Manli naturally knows Xu Qing, and most of the shopping malls where Tesco has settled have been acquired by Tiansheng Zhiwu.

After saying that, she immediately turned to look at He Chunfei, who was very interested and immediately took out a memo to write down, and then said that she would contact Wei Shengwu and Xu Qing to make an appointment later.

Li Yu: "Assistant He, go see if Manager Lu is available."

After hearing Li Yu's instructions, He Chunfei immediately stood up and walked outside.

After He Chunfei left, Yang Manli immediately reported to Li Yu the latest situation of location selection and logistics distribution centers outside the province.

Due to Li Yu's capital injection, Tiansheng Department Store is currently fully funded.

The plan was decided by Li Yu himself, and the company currently has no internal friction and moves naturally quickly.

This week Yang Manli personally flew with her team to various locations across the country to inspect the locations selected by the dispatched personnel.

On some days, Yang Manli took the team to fly two or three times in a row. Every time she was satisfied with the inspection, she left a few members of the team to investigate and cooperate with the outsourced personnel to build the branch.

If you are not satisfied, you basically just leave and let the other party continue to find a suitable position.

Today, Li Yu is not coming over in the afternoon. Yang Manli is probably either on the plane or on the way to the plane today.

After listening to Yang Manli's report that six provincial capital city branch plans had been decided, Ji Yu quickly asked:

"Have the locations of six branches been determined? Have the logistics distribution center and Roca followed up?"

"The construction of the logistics distribution center has begun, and the connection with Lejia has been completed. Please wait for Manager Xialu to come over and let her report the details!"

Although Yang Manli is very clear about the current situation of Lejia, she still very wisely leaves this opportunity for performance to Lu Yan.

After all, Lu Yan was Li Yu’s personal choice.

"Then let's decide, we will produce according to the quality of the samples. Our company's first batch of orders will be 10,000 units. Next, I will let Fa Tiao sign a contract with you.

Lu Yan stood up and said to the middle-aged man opposite with a smile.

"Don't worry, Mr. Lu, our company's technology for producing freezers is very mature. Many big brands on the market are OEMed by us, so there is definitely no problem with the quality.

After hearing about Lu Yan's first batch, the man decided to place an order for 10,000 units. He was overjoyed and promised again and again.

At this moment, He Chunfei came outside, saw through the glass that the conversation was over, and immediately knocked on the door and came in.

"Manager Lu, Mr. Li is here. He asked you to come over."

Hearing Li Yu let her go, Lu Yan said directly to the middle-aged man: "That's it! I won't send you off now that I have no time. Assistant He, please send Mr. Zhang off!"

"No, no! Since Manager Lu has something to do, I'll leave first!"

The middle-aged man waved his hands repeatedly, showing no intention of letting He Chunfei give him away.

After hearing this, Lu Yan proposed not to purchase equipment such as freezers and shelf air conditioners from other brands.

Instead, his company is looking for OEMs to produce. After listening, Li Yu looked at Lu Yan and asked:

"Do you think this can reduce our costs?"

Lu Yan nodded and said, "Not bad."

After Lu Yan finished speaking, she immediately took out the documents she had prepared and handed them to Li Yu.

After Li Yu looked through it, he explained to Li Yu:

"Mr. Li, if our company is a purely operating brand like IKEA, we will charge a franchise fee, management fee and price difference for the goods.

There is really no need to find a foundry to produce equipment yourself.

But our company is not.

First our company has Tesco which requires many of these equipments.

Second, our company needs to advance payments to franchisees to purchase these equipment, rather than letting franchisees purchase them on their own.

Therefore, based on the calculation of thousands of franchise stores a year, the refrigerated display cabinets alone would require 3,000 to 10,000 units.

Franchise plus self-operation plus Tesco, I think it is very necessary for us to produce these equipment ourselves.

After all, even if we buy equipment from those brands, they are produced by OEMs.

Why don't we find OEMs to produce them ourselves? With the same quality, the cost can be reduced by at least 40%.

The price of a single door of a certain first-line brand of refrigerated display cabinets is nearly 2,000. If we need 20,000 doors a year.

It only requires 40 million. If you find a foundry yourself, you can reduce the profit by nearly 20 million. "

After listening to what Lu Yan said, Li Yu did not object but asked: "So how many people do you think this department needs to be responsible for?"

Lu Yan signaled Li Yu to turn to the last page, then pointed to the document and said:

"Because of our internal service, this department has 30 to 60 people according to requirements, and the labor cost is about 8 million. All types of equipment can reduce costs by more than 100 million."

"No problem, just follow your idea."

After Li Yu finished speaking, she closed the document and handed it back to Lu Yan to directly agree with her idea.

Next, Li Yu got down to the topic and asked about the expansion and franchise situation of Lejia this week. Of course, what Li Yu valued most was the cooperation between Lu Yan and Yang Manli.

"Mr. Yang, you just said that Tesco has made expansion plans in which cities?"

Li Yu first turned to look at Yang Manli and asked.

Yang Manli immediately explained to Li Yu and Lu Yan the documents on the table. .
