Chapter 229: Germination wants to run away? Move to Yangcheng!
It was expected that Qingcheng Xiaozhu topped the sales list.
It originally had a large number of stores, a good reputation, and accumulated rich take-out experience compared to other restaurants. With the support of subsidies from Dacong Dianping, it took off immediately.
On Monday, sales are expected to exceed 1 million!
According to this upward trend, Qingcheng Retail's monthly sales exceeded 30 million and monthly profits exceeded 12 million in the Binhai City area alone, which is a very easy thing.
Maybe even say.
With the follow-up promotion and marketing activities of Dacong Dianping, Qingcheng Retail's performance can reach new highs. It's really like Qin Shihuang touching the wires - winning!
Dacong Dianping is burning money like crazy, and Qingcheng Retail is making money like crazy.
This picture...don't be too beautiful!
Qingcheng Retail’s monthly profit of RMB 10 to 20 million seems incomparable to Jade Bird Interactive Entertainment’s RMB 4 to 50 million, but you must know that this is just Binhai City. What if it is extended to major cities across the country?
Then the overall profit will be very considerable, and it is very easy to make a monthly profit of over 100 million.
It is also proved indirectly.
The business model originally chosen by Zhang Shuo for Qingcheng Retail was actually completely feasible.
Another impact of this is-
Originally, Qingcheng Group had been preparing to reduce investment and planned to rapidly expand offline stores only in Beijing. However, affected by the favorable business in Binhai City, it was preparing to restart store expansion plans in Shanghai and Yangcheng.
The logic is also very simple.
Because the takeaway profits from Binhai City and Jingshi alone are enough to support the expansion in Magic City and Yangcheng, and will not cause additional financial pressure on Qingcheng Group.
It’s very nice!
Looking back now, although Du Qingqing's decision was a bit risky, the result was not bad.
Moreover, this matter has also generated a trace of positive energy within the sprout, that is, the resistance and criticism from the previous headquarters and other subsidiaries to the establishment of Qingcheng Group have been eliminated.
Seeing it.
A giant that combines new retail and local life services is about to rise rapidly in Germination.
It’s so confusing!
………
Sprout Building, top floor conference room.
The victory of Qingcheng Xiaozhu can only be regarded as a small surprise in the entire Germination system and will not affect the normal development rhythm of Germination.
Everything is still progressing step by step.
In the conference room, four senior executives, Jiang Yue, Wu Sheyuan, Pei Weiping, and Du Qingqing, had already arrived early.
"let's start!"
After sitting down, Zhang Shuo pointed his gaze at Jiang Yue, who was presiding over the meeting.
"OK."
Jiang Yue was the first to speak: "Qingcheng Group Co., Ltd. has been activated. According to Mr. Zhang's instructions, the legal representative will be changed to Mr. Pei Weiping. The relevant procedures can be completed as soon as this week."
Last week.
Zhang Shuo was interested and decided to form the Qingcheng Group, and appointed Pei Weiping and Du Qingqing on the spot. However, these were all verbal, and the so-called Qingcheng Group only remained on paper.
This meeting is to implement Zhang Shuo's previous decision.
As mentioned before, Germination has registered a series of shell companies, which can be activated and used at any time according to demand. In addition to Qingcheng Group, there are also companies such as Jade Bird Group, Qinghe Group, Qingyun Group, etc.
With the resources that Sprout now has at its disposal, it is easy to activate a shell company.
"As for the positioning of Qingcheng Group, the headquarters mainly mentions two points."
"First, Qingcheng Group has been established as a first-level subsidiary of Sprout Group. Correspondingly, Qingcheng Technology and Qingcheng Retail will be adjusted to second-level subsidiaries."
This step also requires completing changes to industrial and commercial registration.
Fortunately, both Qingcheng Technology and Qingcheng Retail are wholly-owned subsidiaries of Sprout Group. They do not involve the interests of other shareholders, and the equity transfer will be very simple.
It's just a matter of procedure.
What's more important is actually that within the Germination system, the workflow needs to be re-changed.
The most direct change is that the daily documents of Qingcheng Retail and Qingcheng Technology no longer need to be reported to the Sprout Group, but will be processed at the Qingcheng Group level.
Only major matters need to be reported to Qingcheng Group President Pei Weiping and Zhang Shuo.
Unknowingly.
It has greatly reduced the management affairs of the Germination Group, which is equivalent to completing a weight reduction.
This is also the most direct benefit of establishing Qingcheng Group.
For employees of Qingcheng Retail and Qingcheng Technology, this change in the order of the two companies within the group will neither affect their salary nor their subsequent job promotions.
There is even an additional promotion path.
After all, as the Sprout Group becomes more formalized and has a lot of internal talents, it is very difficult for the employees of the subsidiaries to be promoted to the Sprout Group headquarters.
It will undoubtedly be much simpler to increase the headquarters of Qingcheng Group.
"Secondly, when establishing Qingcheng Group, in principle there will be no significant increase in staffing. Employees in the functional departments of Qingcheng Group headquarters will mainly be deployed internally from Qingcheng Retail and Qingcheng Technology."
The original intention of establishing Qingcheng Group was to coordinate Qingcheng Retail and Qingcheng Technology more effectively, rather than making the organizational structure more bloated.
Even people are overwhelmed with things.
Of course, the so-called not adding a large number of employees is just based on the current situation. In order to develop the shared bicycle and shared power bank business, we will definitely still need to recruit more people.
The two shell companies of Qingcheng Bicycle and Qingcheng Power Bank are also ready to be activated at any time.
"Let me tell you."
After Jiang Yue, Pei Weiping reported: "The positioning of Qingcheng Group headquarters is to serve as a connector for its subsidiaries. It is mainly responsible for the cross-cutting businesses of the subsidiaries, such as operations, settlement, strategic planning and other businesses. It is planned to establish operations at the group level.
center, settlement center and strategic planning center to achieve optimal allocation of resources. The two core subsidiaries of Qingcheng Technology and Qingcheng Retail will maintain relatively independent operations, especially at their respective business levels. Qingcheng Bicycle and Qingcheng Charging
Baobao, including new retail and local life service businesses that may be developed in the future, will be incubated by the Strategic Planning Center."
In just a few days.
Pei Weiping has a very clear strategic plan for Qingcheng Group.
The truth is eye-catching.
In this regard, even the proud Du Qingqing feels ashamed.
"Is the office area enough?" Zhang Shuo asked.
"We can still squeeze in a lot at the moment, but it is expected that in half a year, we will definitely face the problem of tight office space."
Pei Weiping also told the truth.
After allocating 33F of the Germination Building to Maili Technology, Qingcheng Retail and Qingcheng Technology together only have a four-story office building from 29F to 32F.
Now we need to set up a group headquarters and incubate Qingcheng Bicycle and Qingcheng Power Bank.
Specifying is not enough.
"Then buy another Grade A office building as the headquarters building of Qingcheng Group." Zhang Shuo was very proud and no longer counted on the Houhai headquarters building.
Even if the latter is built, it will be dominated by Qinghe Technology and Qingniao Interactive Entertainment.
Still not enough.
It would be better to be more arrogant and buy another building.
Anyway, with the current resources of Sprout, we can buy the building and then mortgage it to the bank without spending a lot of money.
It's a top-notch expenditure of one to two hundred million.
"If you want to buy an office building, I have a suggestion." Jiang Yue interrupted at the right time, "Can you consider buying in Yangcheng?"
"You mean to locate the headquarters of Qingcheng Group in Yangcheng?" Zhang Shuo was surprised.
"That's just a suggestion."
Jiang Yue continued to elaborate on her point of view, "Binhai City is indeed good, but Yangcheng is right next to it and it is also a first-tier city. The resources invested by the group in Yangcheng are obviously insufficient."
"Instead of saying that all the subsidiaries are crowded in Binhai City, it is better to take this opportunity to establish a new headquarters in Yangcheng, which will also help fully tap the human resources of Yangcheng."
The university resources in Yangcheng are actually far superior to those in Binhai City.
"That's a good suggestion."
What Zhang Shuo thought of was that doing so would help radiate the influence of the sprouts to Yangcheng.
This is not false.
Among other things, after Qingcheng Group establishes a foothold in Yangcheng, the financing channels of Germination Group will also be broadened, and it will also be able to enjoy new policy support in Yangcheng.
Why not?
Although he has the support of his second uncle in Binhai City, Zhang Shuo is not willing to put his eggs in one basket.
Internet giants such as Tenda and Ali actually have similar headquarters in cities other than their headquarters, thus forming a more reasonable geographical layout.
Instead of settling in a corner.
When the time is right in the future, Germination may not be able to establish its headquarters in the capital city.
"What's your opinion?" Zhang Shuo looked at Pei Weiping.
"I think it's okay."
Pei Weiping expressed his understanding, "Placing the headquarters in Yangcheng, at the very least, will be extremely convenient for spreading green and orange buildings in Yangcheng, which is equivalent to fighting on the local territory."
There is another advantage here.
That is, Yangcheng and Binhai City are back-to-back neighbors, and the transportation is extremely convenient. Traveling between Yangcheng and Binhai City, or traveling between various districts in Binhai City, is not much different.
Qingcheng Group's move to Yangcheng will not increase additional communication costs.
"Then it's settled." Zhang Shuo was also decisive.
If Qingcheng Group really wants to "move" its headquarters, it should do so sooner rather than later. If it waits until it becomes bigger and stronger before moving to Yangcheng, Yangcheng will definitely be happy, but Binhai City may not be so.
The only drawback may be that as the Qingcheng Group moves to Yangcheng and away from the Sprout Building, the Sprout Group's control over the Qingcheng Group will become weaker.
After all, there is a geographical barrier.
Even if communication is now developed, many things can be communicated by phone, video, and email, but after all, it is not as effective as face-to-face communication at any time.
This will test Zhang Shuo's trust in Pei Weiping and Du Qingqing.
But this is another step that must be taken.
Having said that, even if the Qingcheng Group does not move and stays in the Germination Building, under Zhang Shuo's nose, it will actually be of no use if there is a lack of trust between them.
Sooner or later you have to learn to let go.
………
night.
Zheng Zhebin was the host and invited Zhang Shuo and his senior brother to dinner to celebrate his joining.
