By the time Hong Yanwu got the affairs of Yang Weifan and Chen Peisi on the right track, it would be late August.
In this period of time, apart from serving "Zhang Dashao" every day, Hong Yanwu has only been paying attention to Yang Weifan and Chen Peisi, and has not been involved in other things.
But both his own business and the operating conditions of the service company are actually quite good.
Like the tourist products in front of the Great Wall and the Forbidden City, since it is currently within the peak tourist season, "Longkou Village" can now ensure a relatively sufficient supply of products.
These two businesses, under the meticulous and careful management of "Chop Knife" and "San Beng Zi", are really prosperous.
The combined sales of the two locations every day are at least over 10,000.
If you include the additional dividends from foreign exchange certificates, Hong Yanwu can get a net profit of 150,000 to 60,000 yuan in one month.
The same goes for the newly added "Renhe Car Factory" and the new business of Donghuamen Night Market.
Even though there are only twelve tricycles in operation right now, foreigners really love this tourism project.
Every day during the day at the North Gate of the Forbidden City and at night at the Donghuamen Night Market, there are always queues of people waiting for a bus.
Twenty young men pedaled in turns, with no time to rest at all.
Under the good management of "Dayong" and the tacit cooperation with "Little Wife", "Little Cheese" and Angelo.
In one month, I can still earn 50,000 yuan for Hong Yanwujing.
The night market is also in good condition, and everything seems to be particularly easy to sell when you arrive here.
Basically, it takes several hours from the opening of the stall at six o'clock to the closing of the stall, which is like a war.
The sale of kebabs, plus Master Pang's profit share, brought Hong Yanwu a profit of 60,000 yuan.
Such a rough calculation is due to the expansion of these two new businesses.
The economic benefits generated by Hong Yanwu in the tourism industry have surpassed those of latecomers, exceeding the total of clothing wholesale business and stall rentals in Xidan, Wangfujing, and Gaodi Street.
Therefore, it is absolutely certain, coupled with the income from the clothing business, which has always accounted for the majority in the past.
It is certain that Hong Yanwu's cash income will exceed 400,000 yuan in August.
This is another leap of one hundred thousand yuan.
And that's not counting Hong Yanwu's potential income from continuing to hoard good wine through "Xiao Bai Zi", "Shun Zi" and "Naughty Boy".
As for service companies, they are also thriving.
Because we have reasonable rules and regulations and they can be implemented smoothly.
Not only are the employees very motivated to work, but Shuiqing doesn't have to worry too much about management.
Everyone is performing their own duties and just follow the steps.
So in this benign working state, there is a shop, a staple food kitchen, a table tennis table, and an open-air movie theater on weekends.
Profits and service quality are starting to solidify everywhere.
The reputation is getting better and better, the reputation is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more and more customers.
Of course, when it comes to the most profitable business, there is no doubt that it is the "Ice Age" outdoor music cafe.
Under normal circumstances, it is full of customers every day, and it is normal for the turnover to exceed 6,000 in a single day.
In July and August, the service company earned a total net profit of 225,000 yuan, which was an absolute "money printing machine".
Hong Yanwu really didn't forget his promise to Shui Qing, and had already contacted her about applying for a driving class.
And I asked someone to inquire about the price and purchasing channels of the Crown.
And when it comes to this, we must praise Zhu Zhenfan and Duan Gang.
These two boys have completely different temperaments, one is careful and the other is open-minded.
Now that we can put aside our worries and cooperate sincerely, we can learn from each other's strengths and work together tacitly.
Even in the "Ice Age" it was always crowded every night, and there were often people who drank too much.
With the two people working together, there were no major problems.
Especially on August 6, when a heavy rainstorm fell in Beijing, with a rainfall of 264 millimeters, they must be credited with a great contribution.
Because the two men saw that the rain was extremely heavy, they all rushed to the factory on their hard-earned rest day and asked the factory's electricians to help dismantle the stage lighting and sound equipment.
It is because of their responsibility that these things were able to be preserved without any damage during the days of heavy rain, strong winds, and hail.
Otherwise losses are inevitable.
It is even more impossible to resume business in time after the weather improves.
As for the restaurant, the construction work of the infrastructure department has been almost completed, the equipment is in place, and the kitchen utensils are ready.
Only the details of the decoration are still being worked out.
The only thing missing now is manpower and a specific menu.
As soon as the staff is in place and the menu is good, the business can be opened immediately.
All in all, everything seemed so smooth and comfortable.
So Hong Yanwu suddenly had nothing to do, and when he stopped to take a look, he felt that he was a little too lucky.
Because to be honest, he made the situation so big without even realizing it.
Even he himself had never thought at the beginning that this guy with a hammer and a stick could make money from whatever he caught, and yet he succeeded in everything.
Even though his industrial structure is extremely complex today, many businesses are actually interconnected invisibly, and they vaguely appear to be an industrial layout.
Therefore, the biggest feeling he had from this, besides the surprise in a dream, was that he seemed to have grasped the key, or fundamental principle, that could truly make the company bigger.
This thing was by no means the conspiracy and speculation that his bosses Quan Pengfei and Gao Ming pondered every day in his previous life in the real estate company.
Nor was it the Western modern management theories highly praised by the highly educated "successful people" he had met.
What he suddenly realized through his own practice and resonated strongly was actually my country's most traditional business philosophy.
That is what his father often told him, "harmony brings wealth."
Don't underestimate this sentence.
I remember there was a line in a cross talk, "Business and business rely on harmony to make money, treat rich and poor alike...how can you not make a fortune in a business like yours?"
The phrase "harmony brings wealth" in this libretto only advocates a "kindness to others" service attitude, which is also the most common understanding of this word.
But this explanation is too simple. From Hong Yanwu's current perspective, the real meaning of this seemingly ordinary word is far more than this.
"Harmony brings wealth" should actually be interpreted as an excellent businessman should strive to achieve harmony and balance in all aspects of relationships.
Yes, if a business wants to make money, it must first satisfy its customers.
What do customers want? Cheap, good quality, and a good experience.
This follows what can be summarized as the principle of equivalent exchange.
But similarly, if a business wants to make money, it must also satisfy its subordinates and employees.
So what do subordinates and employees want?
It's just about respect, future, and high income.
This requires following the principle of alignment of interests.
When Hong Yanwu looked at himself, he believed that his success lay precisely in handling these two most critical relationships.
To his customers, he made people generous, relying on the scarcity of the goods and fair prices.
For his subordinates and employees, he made them work diligently by relying on relatively fair distribution criteria and visible benefits.
It is through this that a balance between buyers and sellers, internal and external aspects is achieved.
Only in this way can his business and work maintain a stable, upward and rapid development trend and enter a virtuous circle. If one of the two is missing, it will be like walking with one leg lame.
Either the customers are complaining, or the internal chain is falling apart and causing trouble.
How can we do a good job in the business? We are absolutely in a mess and leaking information everywhere.
Frankly speaking, Hong Yanwu actually knew that what he did was not perfect, and there were still many shortcomings.
But just because he did better than most people of his generation, the flaws were automatically covered up and made up for.
For example, even if customers feel that the price is high, they will tolerate it due to the scarcity of the product and the service attitude.
In the same way, even if employees find loopholes in the work system.
But because of the consistency between personal interests and public interests, and out of cherishment of work, no one will complain or take advantage of loopholes.
On the contrary, they will take the initiative to remind them, and even voluntarily make up for the loopholes.
This is the key reason why Hong Yanwu was able to spare his time to do the things he cared about. After being the boss for so long, there was no problem in all aspects.
Based on this understanding, Hong Yanwu then extended the application of this theory.
This will help you see further and think more comprehensively.
Because business involves not only customers and employees, but also supply service providers, economic lenders and guarantors, market managers and supervisors, and other factors that can affect the reputation of the company.
What about the media?
These relationships are still important and can also affect the vitality and development prospects of the enterprise.
The most ideal way to deal with it is definitely to pursue the word "harmony".
To put it bluntly, the important thing is the word "unity".
That is to say, people's hearts are against each other, and if you are a good person, you will get a lot of help, but if you are a bad person, you will get very little help.
You know, the existence of these relationships will not change.
But when the resistance and assistance are swapped, there is a double difference between the inside and the outside.
Only more and more people think that the existence of your business is beneficial and a good thing, and all parties can benefit from it.
Only in this way can the enterprise develop smoothly.
From this, one rule can be summed up: as a business manager, you should not just focus on profits.
Whether you are good at preparing for a rainy day or you know how to make up for the situation before it is too late.
The biggest obligation and responsibility of business managers is actually how to maintain harmony and balance among all aspects of the relationship.
If you really achieve this goal, you don't have to worry about making money at all, the money will just flow into your pocket.
No wonder Li Fu said that the Hong family was never separated and treated its employees so well.
No wonder the Hong family has left behind their ancestral motto: Be a child without deception, have the best reputation, never be a tyrant, and do more good deeds.
No wonder his father often said, "A ten thousand-year inheritance depends on the heart. How big the heart is, how big the business will be."
No wonder Quan Pengfei and Gao Ming believe in "the way of business follows the way of politics" and always put "power" first.
He yells every day, "It doesn't matter who you know, the key is who you want to know and who knows you."
This all makes sense.
Because on the surface these seem to be nowhere near each other, but in fact they are all covered by the same principle.
That is, the interest of business does not lie in the amount, but in the balance of various relationships.
Only this balance can create the greatest enterprise.
On the other hand, if a company has problems, its development stagnates, or even begins to decline.
No need to ask, it must be that the relationship is out of balance somewhere and lacks "harmony".
If you understand this, you only need to follow this idea and examine each one one by one to find the places where there are lots of contradictions and the most complaints.
It is not difficult to find the root cause of the disease and cure it with the medicine.
This kind of understanding seems to be more comprehensive and complete than some time ago, when he simply understood the Hong family's business principles as "even if it is an ordinary transaction, we must find ways to make customers addicted and dependent."
Therefore, Hong Yanwu had a vague feeling of getting his first glimpse of the door.
He feels that now that he has realized this level, he seems to have just started doing business.
And he also summed up his own unique experience.
That is, "Business is actually about understanding people. Once you understand people thoroughly, the business will be successful."
