The salty and humid sea breeze spreads the heat throughout Hong Kong.
The hot air was not filled with the usual coolness to relieve the heat, but more like a burning discomfort like a fire.
This is the southernmost tip of the Chinese continent, and there is no winter to speak of.
At this time, Zhang Haidong finished inspecting the two acquired Kamai retail groups.
Sales in the entire mall were bleak, with few people coming to shop, and there were more salespeople than customers.
No wonder it suffered a loss and was sold.
"Mr. Zhang, because the hooligans in Honggang made a lot of noise in the past two years and were not very friendly to tourists, the number of people shopping here has dropped by more than 90%.
Besides, this is not a leading district like Kowloon or Wan Chai. Even if it is a free and tax-free shopping paradise, it cannot attract shopping customers.
The only mainland tourists are shopping in Kowloon and Wan Chai."
Bian Zitang said softly.
Zhang Haidong nodded.
Although Hongkang has returned to the embrace of the motherland in 1997.
But this is after all the former Four Asian Tigers, the most coveted moneybags of capitalism.
How could the capitalists give up this money bag so easily?
That is a cow that can always produce milk!
They are always testing, always exploring the bottom line.
When the commotion was at its worst two years ago, traffic in Hong Kong was completely paralyzed.
There are also endless incidents of foreign tourists being beaten and cheated.
Such a poor shopping environment has finally made Honggang lose its reputation as a shopping paradise.
Even if there is a tax-free quota of 5,000, even if it is freely exchangeable trade, the former tourists are not willing to come.
What a bunch of idiots!
Zhang Haidong cursed in his heart.
However, it was precisely because of these idiots that the Kamai Retail Group went bankrupt and he had the opportunity to take over.
In Honggang, where land is at a premium, anything like land must be purchased at a premium.
The two dilapidated shopping malls of the Kamai Group are only worth 4 billion at best, but if you want to buy them, you have to spend 9.6 billion to buy them.
This is the reality.
"How much money is left in the company account?"
Zhang Haidong took out a tissue and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
"Guangying Group currently only has a cash flow of more than 100 million. Moreover, it cashed out a lot of money this time, and the shareholders are quite complaining..."
Bian Zitang said.
Zhang Haidong nodded.
Because major shareholders sell cash and pay for it, the stock price will inevitably fall.
Shareholders will naturally not be happy if their pocketbooks shrink.
Can no longer cash out.
Now we need to use the least amount of publicity expenses to achieve the best advertising effect and make former tourists come back to shop again.
In fact, it is very simple to attract former tourists, just give them a sense of security.
Zhang Haidong knows that group of tourists better than anyone else.
The once-famous director Feng Pengtong once shouted out: "Garbage audiences create garbage movies."
This sentence made Zhang Haidong directly block Feng Pants on Weibo.
I have never seen his movie Zhang Haidong again.
Because Zhang Haidong knew that under the influence of thousands of years of Confucian culture, those kind-hearted tourists did not have high requirements at all.
As long as they can watch movies and TV series, they are not too picky.
Let alone shopping.
If you can give them the simplest sense of security, they will be very willing to spend money to visit you.
This problem is easily solved.
Zhang Haidong looked coldly at the idle salesmen in the mall. When he, the new boss, came in, this group of arrogant Hong Kong people looked at him coldly, let alone the group of foreign tourists paying money.
"snort!"
He snorted coldly.
"Mr. Zhang, are you dissatisfied with the shopping mall you acquired?"
Bian Zitang asked quickly and fearfully.
"no.
Now you can directly transfer 50 million from Guangying Group to the account of our new company. This 50 million is enough for us to turn over.
Also, find the best substitutes in mainland China for all the items sold in the mall. I want you to complete them within two days.
any questions?"
"No!"
Bian Zitang nodded immediately.
"Do you want to directly kick out all the suppliers in the mall? These suppliers are all under contract, and only a few of them have expired.
If you pay liquidated damages..."
"No. Just go and do it.
Remember, you only have two days."
After Zhang Haidong finished speaking, he stopped a taxi and ran towards the company.
…
"Mr. Zhang, the 50 million cash flow from mainland China has been paid.
This is a list of replacement items sold in the mall.
Some things are imported luxuries that cannot be replaced here...
It's all ready for you.
Is there anything else?"
One day later, Bian Zitang had everything done.
Zhang Haidong looked at the list of suppliers and nodded with satisfaction.
"Gather all the suppliers to the conference room for a meeting. If you don't come, if the contract expires, get out of here immediately."
Zhang Haidong put things in order and said.
"good."
…
…
"A local guy from mainland China took over two shopping malls that were about to close down at a premium, and he became so arrogant!"
In the conference room, a well-oiled Honggang businessman said.
"It's nothing more than a few bad money. How many wealthy people have come over the years?
Which one didn’t come in high spirits and then left dejectedly?
How can a foreigner easily control the market conditions of Honggang?"
Another person casually crossed his legs and said.
"Perhaps the wealthy people are just here to give money!"
