Not only Ning Weimin has encountered good things one after another, Song Huagui's recent luck has also been bad.
Not long after Ning Weimin's expansion strategy of a full-scale attack on the fashion field was approved by Song Huagui, someone actually introduced a beauty and hairdressing expert from Hong Kong City to Song Huagui, hoping to discuss it with Pierre Cardin China Corporation.
Reached cooperation in related business.
Whatever you need, God will give you.
Especially when Ning Weimin heard Song Huagui tell him that the person who was interested in cooperating was a woman named Zheng Mingming.
"The Female CEO's Almighty Soldier"
Not only is she the chairman of the Hong Kong City Beauty Association, but she also has a chain of beauty salons and training institutions in Hong Kong City, Indonesia and San Francisco, USA.
Ning Weimin was even more happy, feeling that it took no effort to get it without trying to find anywhere.
Before Song Huagui could introduce it in detail, he called out the name of the training institution - "Monita!"
"Huh? Do you know this training institution in Hong Kong City?" Song Huagui was a little surprised.
"Ah... um... I heard about it. I read it from... a magazine in Hong Kong City. The magazine said that this Zheng Mingming seems to be the inventor of eyebrow tattooing technology."
Ning Weimin's expression didn't change, and he covered it up casually.
But in fact, he knew much more about this training institution than that.
For no other reason than that in his previous life, he once thought of becoming a barber in order to earn a living.
To serve this bowl of rice, the little haircutting skills he learned from the nursing staff in the welfare home were of course not enough, so he had to go to a beauty and beauty training institution in the capital to learn the craft first.
He had learned about the relevant market and knew that the oldest beauty and hairdressing training institution in Beijing was "Monita".
It has been running a school in Beijing since 1986, and it is a group company from the port city that cooperates with the Education Bureau. After completing the course, you can directly take the entrance examination to a regular school with international qualifications.
Not only are the teachers mostly professional technicians from Hong Kong, but there are also some foreign technicians, and the hardware equipment is also in line with the market.
A Monita Beauty Salon was even opened next to the school to provide students with practical opportunities.
But unfortunately, the tuition was expensive and the study time was long, so he finally gave up.
However, he remembered the Monita brand story and the legendary introduction of the founder, Ms. Zheng Mingming, in the promotional materials.
Therefore, he is still very optimistic about the cooperation between the two parties.
At least he knew that as a professional technical training structure, the teaching quality of this "Monita" was indeed up to standard.
In the next twenty years, it will be the only one company in the mainland, and it will also open branches all over the country through franchising.
After that, although the branch offices faced intensified market competition, management became increasingly chaotic, and the brand advantage disappeared.
However, the teaching quality of the three directly-operated stores in Beijing, Shenzhen, and Dalian has always been relatively strong.
Its students have still won the first and second place in the Asian Hair and Makeup Competition for eight consecutive years, and won the world championship in the CIDESCO Body Painting Competition in Switzerland for two consecutive years.
The academic qualifications of students have also been certified by CIDESCO, the world beauty organization.
In fact, his original intention was to talk to Ms. Zheng about cooperation before 1986, and he even asked Mr. Zeng Xianzi of Goldlion specifically for this matter.
It's a pity that the telecommunications are not smooth these days, so it is very difficult to find someone.
Mr. Zeng has been traveling between Huacheng and Shenzhen recently. He has no time to return to Hong Kong yet, let alone this matter, which makes him unable to start.
Unexpectedly, they came to the mainland by themselves and took the initiative to deliver it to their door. This is of course a good thing and saves a lot of trouble.
However, as far as the initial contact between the two parties is concerned, the differences of opinions are not small, and it is still quite difficult to really achieve cooperation.
Because Ms. Zheng Mingming contacted Pierre Cardin mainly because of the huge market where model competitions and mainland costume shows are popular, and to make money.
When it comes to jointly establishing a school, the other party is not very enthusiastic.
Not that I disagree, but the other party obviously has big plans to enter the mainland market.
The first is to stick to your own brand and not change it.
Second, the lion is also very open to investment.
The asking price was 1 million for 10% of the shares, and they were only willing to give 20% at most.
The reason is that beauty equipment and cosmetics are expensive and many need to be imported. Teachers are also unwilling to come because of poor conditions in the mainland, so they must be paid high wages, which costs a lot of money.
But looking at it on the other hand, considering the situation in the Mainland, there is naturally a limit to how much tuition students can pay.
This was obviously a tactful attempt to get Picardy to retreat and not get involved in this "loss-making business."
So Song Huagui was not sure, so he came to Ning Weimin with the purpose of giving him advice on how to discuss the matter later.
"Ms. Zheng is really smart. She has figured out that the model competition is about to enter the main schedule. When high-quality makeup artists are needed most, she comes to discuss cooperation. And their level is really good. Many big-name stars in Hong Kong City have designated Monnie.
The make-up artist in the tower did the styling. I found it difficult to refuse her offer and conditions. However, we were very reluctant to jointly run the school. We had no experience at all, and others did not want to take advantage of our fame. The support we could give
We only have funds, and there is really no need for people to cooperate with us. And even if we reach a cooperation, according to her calculations, it will be difficult to make any profits in the future, and we will have to lose money every year. We have to continue to use funds to make up for it. Do you still insist on doing this?"
Faced with Song Huagui's hesitation and wavering, Ning Weimin smiled.
"Sister, you are right. This Ms. Zheng is too smart. She is a typical person who just wants to take advantage and not suffer any loss. But it is not necessarily true that we are behind the wheel. Although in terms of cooperation, we can bring out real things.
Not much. Without our involvement, others can indeed get things done. But in terms of demand, it is different. We have the market, the funds, the reputation, and even the connections and connections, so this is not our
It’s not something we ask her for, it’s her asking for us.”
"I still say what I said. We are the pioneers in the mainland market and the current leader in the fashion industry. At present, we can say that we are the only one, occupying the right time, place and people. So although latecomers will pose a threat to us, they will not
With our strength, they will never be able to kick us away. Especially in the treasure land of Beijing, everyone must allow us to negotiate terms. Otherwise, if we don't agree, no one will be able to reap the benefits.
"
"Actually, we don't care, because our main business is clothing, and if we intervene forcefully, the worst result is to lose some money. The real loser is Ms. Zheng. Let's not talk about losing money and making money, maybe the mainland market will also be crazy for us.
The bombing was ruined. To put it bluntly, this is equivalent to a war between two countries, and we are the aggressor. If we go to other countries to fight on their territory, even if they are defeated, the other country will be a scorched earth, but our homeland will not be affected. She refused to us
, it’s definitely not worth the gain.”
"As for the money lost in running the school, is it worth the investment? You must be firm on this question. The money lost in running the school can be earned back through other business operations. The key is to be able to solve our growing demand for professional makeup artists.
The practical problem, and business is about timing, is the war between risk and caution. If few people can make money from it, it will be a big deal. If many people can make money from it, it will definitely not be a big deal. At present,
The timing is great. If we don’t participate, it will be a thousand times more difficult to intervene in the future..."
Song Huagui had to admit that Ning Weimin's words were reasonable, but the artist's thinking mode made her worried.
"But...is this tantamount to intimidating others in disguise? I always feel that bullying others based on wealth and power is a bit immoral. Then I have a thorn in my heart. Will cooperation in the future produce good results?"
"Oh, what's wrong with you? I can't be as soft-hearted as you, nor can I be a good person like you."
Ning Weimin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he could only continue to persuade.
"Sister, of course you are right about business ethics, but the problem is that there are levels in the shopping mall. There should be distinctions between partners at different levels. Take dealing with the government as an example, you and Mr. Pierre Cardon are both
A master is personable, gentle, trustworthy, honorable, and pursues both economic and social benefits. On the basis of mutual benefit, he can also improve personal relationships. This is a high-level social interaction. You can't engage in intrigues."
"But for this group of Hong Kong businessmen, you really shouldn't be too down-to-earth, and don't think too highly of them. There is one of them. On the surface, there are five of them and six of them are quite decent, but because they have been under colonial rule for a long time,
They are all very utilitarian and selfish. They lack any integrity, no nobility, and are just philistines. If you try to talk to them about pure morality and integrity, they will become big fat sheep and let people eat their flesh and blood.
You have to save the snack machine and use some skills."
Song Huagui couldn't agree and couldn't help interrupting.
"You are overgeneralizing, and you are not objective. Isn't there a majestic figure in such a big port city? What about Mr. Zeng from Goldlion? And Mr. Huo from the White Swan Hotel
Woolen cloth?"
However, Ning Weimin did not change his tune. "Mr. Huo is from the Jianghu. Although he has character and dignity, he can't escape his recklessness. Mr. Zeng comes from the mainland. He should still be considered a mainlander at heart, but even so, he is still a mainlander."
He is a small businessman."
"This can almost be said to be the commonality of businessmen in Hong Kong City. If you know the history of Hong Kong City, you should know that most Hong Kong businessmen became prosperous from the 1950s to the 1970s, and they were all engaged in small businesses at the beginning.
This is mainly due to the economic blockade imposed by Western countries on the mainland. It is caused by the special reasons of the times and history."
"Small businessmen have the characteristics of small businessmen when they are born. They have endured hardships and grown from low to high. They are good at comparing every penny and money, and are good at seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages. To put it bluntly, they are aware of current affairs and good at changing the situation. So.
Smart businessmen in Hong Kong will find that once the mainland reforms and opens up, the historical dividends of Hong Kong will end. If they want to continue making money, they have to go to the mainland."
"Mr. Zeng is undoubtedly a smart man, so he quickly reached a cooperation with us. Isn't it coercion for me to give out the patent? He will definitely consider the consequences of not agreeing. But one of us understands the interest, and the other gives face, and the pain in his heart is gone.
There will be no more. Cooperation will naturally not be a problem."
"The same goes for Ms. Zheng. It was written in the magazine that foreigners gave her the nickname 'Oriental Mouse'. This is because she did promotions and promotions in Malaysia, Singapore, and even as far away as Australia and the United States in her early years.
The purpose of participating in the exhibition is to spread Monita's name and products, and prepare to return to Hong Kong City after becoming famous. At the same time, we also refer to the success of beauty schools in other countries, collect useful information everywhere, and translate it into Chinese teaching materials to teach students
, to improve their own teaching standards. So the name is not nice, but it is very appropriate."
"Such a person is so good at finding opportunities. Do you believe that she doesn't understand the principle that two parties will benefit from cooperation and two parties will suffer from separation? I think you can give her what she wants. As for what we want
In fact, as long as she understands that no matter what, we will be involved in beauty and hairdressing training, she will know what to do and make a wise choice."
"Don't worry. Our family has a great cause and is not on the same level as her. If you were Wu Zetian, she would only be the Queen Mother of the West, not even the Queen Mother of the East Palace. What qualifications do you have to object? So the imaginary betrayal and poverty
Dagger does not exist at all. This matter can definitely be reached in a harmonious atmosphere."
"Originally, there are no personal problems in the mall, they are everyone's problems. As long as everyone has benefits and recognizes each other's importance, what's the problem? We don't take advantage of her. This is our sincerity. At worst, you can take it with you
Let's talk together. I'm good at talking about philistines. You play the good role and be responsible for the hospitality, and I will play the bad role and be responsible for arguing..."
Hearing this, Song Huagui couldn't help but laugh.
"I'm not Wu Zetian, you are a bit like Di Renjie, a treasure from the ocean, a prime minister's talent. It's better to have you here, I can concentrate on the modeling competition. Then let's do it this way, I will only be responsible for talking then
You are responsible for the model's makeup and the rest."
