Of course, listening means listening, and the attitude you use to listen is also a matter of knowledge.
"Well," Chen Taizhong nodded expressionlessly, casually picked up the tea on the table and took a sip without saying anything else. However, Zhou Xingwang knew that he could make a statement now.
This Chen Taizhong is really arrogant. He sighed secretly, and couldn't help but feel a bit sour in his heart: Thinking about the past few years, when he was doing well, the deputy governor would give him a smile when he saw him, but now he is in trouble.
, even a small deputy director fell in love with me.
"I heard that your Science and Technology Commission has hundreds of millions of funds looking for investment?" He spoke with difficulty, but there was still a calm smile on his face, "I want to apply for support."
The financial bottleneck has long puzzled Zhou Xingwang, but now, with the sudden change in the situation in Subo City, his situation has become more and more serious.
When the service company was starting up, Mr. Zhou had the courage to go to Ding Houde, the deputy mayor in charge of the Grain Bureau. Mayor Ding appreciated his courage and made an exception of 300,000 yuan for him to run the business. Zhou Xingwang
I also issued an administrative order savagely, requiring each employee to hand over 10,000 in raised funds, or else they would pack their bags and leave.
At that time, the old director of the Grain Bureau was about to retire, and others were busy fighting for the position and waiting. Zhou Xingwang also had 300,000 yuan given by Ding Houde. For a while, no one came to trouble him. Anyway, the service company had a full dozen people, which affected
It wasn't too big. In the end, he actually scraped together half a million yuan. Someone paid 20,000 yuan, but Zhou Xingwang borrowed 75,000 yuan for it. It was this half a million yuan that supported the No. 1 "Family Fun" store.
Due to the appropriate positioning and delicious taste, Hejiahuan recovered its investment in just six months. When the dividend was distributed at the end of the year, everyone was happy. Someone proposed to increase the share capital, but Zhou Xingwang refused.
After the Spring Festival of the next year, when Mr. Zhou visited Mayor Ding again, Ding Houde had been promoted to executive deputy mayor. I heard that this brave young man actually made some tricks, and he felt that he was promoted to executive deputy mayor.
I should do something to show everyone my own methods. I agreed to Zhou Xingwang’s loan plan without hesitation.
However, Mayor Ding will definitely not allow Xiao Zhou to open only two chains, "If you want to open up at least five chains, Xiao Zhou, people must have high aspirations, time is money, efficiency is life, you are slowly and slowly
, too conservative.”
At this point, "Family Fun" was on the fast track of development. In the end, the speed of personnel training could not keep up with the speed of opening stores. Zhu Bingsong was overjoyed when he saw such a company suddenly emerging in the city. Not only did he specially call the bank
Hao.xs.com asked them to simplify the loan process for Hejiahuan. They even personally checked on the expansion speed of Hejiahuan.
Last year, the expansion target of family carnivals was 20. Mayor Zhu said with a stroke of his pen, "Seize the day and night. There should be at least one family carnival in each provincial capital city. Based on 30 family carnivals, strive for fifty."
Ordinarily, although this goal is a bit big, it doesn't matter if the franchise chain is allowed to be authorized. However, Mayor Zhu and Mayor Ding agreed that the Hejiahuan brand belongs to the Municipal Grain Bureau and the Subo Municipal Government.
How can the country's resources be used by private individuals to make profits?
Therefore, Zhou Xingwang could only borrow money to do this. Although he completed the base last year, he only opened 35 new ones. He had no choice but to make money to keep up.
Although Family Carnival’s revenue last year was 220 million, the cost of opening a store in other places is really not low. Coupled with the burden of systematic management, the net profit is only about 50 million, without paying 30% to the bureau.
Management fees, as well as the expenses for managing the city, and after throwing away the dividends of a few of my own people, there is not much money left, and even half of the bank loan can't be repaid.
To be honest, the pace of Family Fun's expansion is too fast. The supply channels cannot keep up and the related management is in a mess. Otherwise, last year's net profit would not have reached 80 million. This is the inevitable pain of rapid growth.
At the beginning of this year, when Zhu Bingsong was having a discussion with entrepreneurs, he specifically asked Zhou Xingwang, "Xiao Zhou, your steps are not big enough for family fun. This year I will put more burdens on you. Is there any problem with opening a hundred stores?"
Mayor Zhu has spoken, so if there is a problem, it can only be solved. But unfortunately, there is a problem at the bank.
Honestly speaking, "Hejiahuan" is really a good loan target. The city strongly supports it and the funds are withdrawn quickly. However, people in the banking industry are also dissatisfied with Zhou Xingwang, and that is that Mr. Zhou is too arrogant. You and the market
It is true that we have a good relationship with the deputy mayor, but since you are borrowing my money to do business, you must always fulfill the due etiquette, right?
The people at the bank are not really just trying to give Zhou Xingwang some ice and charcoal, or the courtesy during the New Year and the holidays. Isn't it just for the sake of comfort in life? You are not too rude on weekdays, but
Isn’t it always bad to have no one in your eyes?
The public relations manager was assigned to send me a card worth 1,200 yuan during the Chinese New Year with an expressionless face. Who are you dealing with? You are so serious, just treat me to two skewers of mutton skewers on the street. What everyone is picturing is a
With equal exchanges, this society is a humane society. ^^
In the second half of last year, the bank's support for Hejiahuan became weaker. Hejiahuan is not as fast as Jiuhua Real Estate and other projects, and the cost recovery is very fast, which does not bring huge pressure to the bank. The expansion of Hejiahuan is inseparable from the support of banks.
, in this case, Zhou Xingwang would ignore the relationship with the bank, isn't it because his own financial situation is good?
But banks also know that with this huge profit situation, once family entertainment expands, it will become difficult to make profits. How can consumption in small cities compare with that in big cities?
Not to mention, the catering industry is an industry that can easily be copied. Last year, your Hejiahuan No. 10 store sold 4 million. This year, the competition is fierce, so you may not be able to sell 2 million. Last year, the cost was 2 million. This year, the cost was 2 million.
The cost may not even come down to 1.5 million.
Yes, once everyone understands the fresh taste and business methods, you must not worry that no one will learn from you, not to mention that people today are no longer as obsessed with time-honored brands as they were twenty years ago. Everyone
We are all used to liking the new and hating the old.
What's more, Family Carnival is far from being considered a time-honored brand. It is almost the rival of a time-honored brand. It is very difficult for a newly emerged catering brand to avoid feeling bored after everyone is familiar with it. The brand is far from being consolidated.
It's not as easy as you think. As the old saying goes, it's easy to conquer a country, but it's difficult to sit on it.
Even if new stores are added, the market may not be able to expand much. Even if it expands, operating costs will increase a lot. As for the original market, it is considered good if it does not shrink. This is the banking industry's assessment of Family Fun.
Of course, this is the most pertinent assessment, and there are also those who make extremely unflattering remarks and those who spend a lot of money, which inevitably contains more or less private goods.
Strictly speaking, this evaluation is neither good nor bad. The development of a brand will always go through peaks and troughs. There are emergencies and slowdowns, and there are ups and downs. As long as the general direction is good, it is still worthy of support.
However, the pace of family fun this year is a bit too big. One hundred stores have to unify decoration and logistics. On average, one store needs 100 million to digest it. This step is too big.
, and what’s even worse is.^^ Money is tight this year, really tight.
Thinking about that assessment, everyone knew that the market prospects may not be very good. Some people wanted to persuade Zhou Xingwang that there was no need to make it so big, but Boss Zhou said it back firmly, "This is Mayor Zhu.
The task assigned to me, if you can persuade Mayor Zhu to allocate less money, it doesn’t matter, do you think I don’t think the task is too heavy?”
At this point, everyone remembered that Zhou Xingwang had never been a banker, and the resentment in his heart became a little bigger. However, Zhu City was so powerful that no one dared to stand up, so he couldn't be said to be dragging his feet.
Start a loan.
But Zhou Xingwang is a man of action. Seeing that the bank was not getting enough money, in order to avoid failing to complete administrative tasks, he also tried to borrow a lot of funds. Now he is reluctantly engaged in more than 40 decoration and leasing matters.
However, as a result, money is a little tight. What's more terrible is that the sales of chain stores have declined in varying degrees in the past. After the novelty has passed, coupled with the opening of similar restaurants, it is normal for the sales to decline. This
We have just entered a stable period. If we can keep our composure and manage carefully, and persist for thirty to fifty years, we will not be unable to build a well-known brand.
But Zhou Xingwang couldn't hold back his anger and started going to the bank every day. However, the grievances accumulated over the past few years could not be resolved in a day or two. When the relationship between everyone eased, he discovered that the family was missing a bank.
, I’m afraid I won’t be able to play anymore.
Of course, besides banks, it is not impossible to find financial means to borrow money, but it is very regrettable that at this moment, there was a thunderbolt from the blue, and Zhu Bingsong collapsed.
It doesn't matter just that Zhu Bingsong fell. Zhou Xingwang also had a good relationship with the executive deputy mayor Ding Houde. However, Ding Houde was transferred away and went to Liaoyuan as the executive deputy mayor. In fact, he was transferred from the provincial capital to an ordinary place.
City level, this is already downgraded, and the smell of punishment is very strong.
Both mayors are gone, so okay, Secretary-General He Tieying of the Municipal Government Office is still there, so the relationship between Secretary-General He and Zhou Xingwang will be the same, right?
However, everyone wants to get it. As a general of the Zhu family, the possibility of He Tieying being adjusted next is 100%. Moreover, given He Tieying's position, it is really difficult to direct the city's finances, not to mention that He Tieying has no guts to act arbitrarily now.
The former director of the Finance Bureau, Yang Ziguan, was also cheated. Now the acting director is the executive deputy director. At this juncture, the relevant funds are tightly controlled, and every step is taken for fear of making a mistake. ^^
Family Carnival is a brand favored by two former mayors of Subo, Zhu Bingsong and Ding Houde. Is there any need to say whether Zhou Xingwang’s Family Carnival can get money from the finance?
