Ignoring the recent turmoil in the media industry in Xiangjiang, Li Guangyu held a group high-level meeting on October 4 after inspecting some stores of Hengyu Supermarket Group in Xiangjiang.
In addition to senior executives of Hengyu Supermarket Group, Yuan Tianfan, Du Yuemei, Zhou Xiaoning, Chen Dong and Qinghong also attended the meeting that day.
The senior executives of Hengyu Supermarket Group were still very shocked. Since the establishment of Hengyu Supermarket Group, this was the first time that so many executives were present at a meeting of the group.
In the sixth conference room on the second floor of Wheelock Building, Li Guangyu said at the meeting: "Hengyu Supermarket Group officially opened its first store in Tin Shui Wai in 1981. After just a few years of development, as of the end of September, we
The number of Hengyu supermarket stores has reached 642, and the number of our Hengyu convenience stores has reached 1,436. Our subsidiary Hengyu Logistics has also become one of the top ten logistics companies in the world. These achievements are inseparable from everyone's efforts. I am here
Thank you to everyone.”
Chen Linwen said: "The development of Hengyu Supermarket Group is mainly due to the support of Li Sheng's capital. With a steady stream of capital investment, we have been able to become the world's top retail supermarket in a short period of time, and I believe that in the next five years
In ten years' time, Hengyu Supermarket Group will definitely become the number one group in the retail market."
The current number one retail group is Sears in the United States. This company is diversified and its turnover reached US$26 billion last year. This is due to the group's development problems in recent years and its slow growth in turnover.
Hengyu Supermarket Group's turnover last year was 9.6 billion US dollars. In the first three quarters of this year, its turnover has exceeded 10 billion US dollars, reaching 10.2 billion US dollars. It is expected to reach 14.5 billion US dollars for the whole year.
The reason for such explosive growth this year is mainly due to the opening of some stores in Canada, Mexico, Latin America and Western Europe in the second half of last year. In the first nine months of this year, there were nearly 100 more supermarkets and as many as 300 convenience stores.
Many.
The reason why Chen Linwen has such confidence is mainly in the mainland market. As the reform and opening up continues to advance, more and more cities and regions in the mainland are opening up to the outside world. Their Hengyu Supermarket Group can take advantage of the trend to enter it, with more than 1 billion
With the support of the population market and the continued economic development of the mainland, Hengyu Supermarket Group's turnover will continue to soar.
Li Guangyu said: "Confidence is a good thing, but it cannot just be a slogan, it needs to be implemented with practical actions. Now our Hengyu Supermarket Group is very large. In some areas, because we are in a monopoly position, some employees have begun to slack off and feel unhappy.
If there is any more passion, it will not be conducive to the development of our group in the long run."
At present, Hengyu Supermarket Group is in a dominant or monopoly position in many regions, especially in Asia. There is basically no force that can compete with it. Li Guangyu believes that whether its employees are arrogant or arrogant, there must be some.
At present, he needs to break the previous nanny style and adjust the salaries of some positions in Hengyu Supermarket Group so that these employees can move their hearts.
Chen Linwen has long known that Li Guangyu has been inspecting Xiangjiang Hengyu Supermarket stores in the past few days. So many executives have come this time. Now that Li Guangyu has brought up such a thing, it is probably because Li Guangyu has discovered some problems in the supermarket and is a little dissatisfied.
.
After Li Guangyu finished speaking, he immediately said: "Li Sheng, our group has also introduced some policies to ensure employees' enthusiasm for work. I believe that the vast majority of employees in the group are working with all their heart."
"I have not denied the contribution of the group's employees. Without the efforts of the group's employees, our Hengyu Supermarket Group would not have developed to such a huge scale now. I just made changes to the group's policies and salaries so that those who work hard can get the benefits.
For more rewards, Zhou Xiaoning will explain this to everyone."
Zhou Xiaoning said: "Hengyu Supermarket Group is very large now, and it is impossible for us to implement all the systems at once. At present, we mainly start with supermarket store managers and convenience store managers. In the future, the salary of the person in charge of these stores will only be the basic salary.
The monthly salary is calculated based on the percentage of the store's after-tax profit.
We will introduce a series of policies. The top ten store managers of the same level will be promoted first in the group's job promotions. The bottom ten store managers of the same level will be dismissed. The top fifty store managers of convenience stores will be promoted first, and those in the bottom ten will be dismissed.
Fifty store managers will be dismissed once a year, and new stores opened during the year will not be counted."
Zhou Xiaoning's words set off a thousand waves with one stone. Over the years, Li's consortium has set salaries based on grades, but the major groups have different bonuses.
Now Hengyu Supermarket Group is going to break this situation. Salaries based on grades will no longer exist. At the same time, the last-place elimination system has put great pressure on these store managers.
Over the years, Li's consortium has continued to expand, and there has never been any problem of layoffs. Except for some people who resigned, Hengyu Supermarket Group has not laid off a large number of employees.
At present, Hengyu Supermarket Group has convenience stores as first-level stores, small supermarkets in market towns as second-level stores, medium-sized supermarkets in counties as third-level stores, large supermarkets in various cities as fourth-level stores, and super-large stores in provincial/state capitals.
, which is very large in size, is defined as level five. In central cities in various countries, one-stop shopping malls are also built, which are defined as level six.
Let’s ignore the sixth level for now. This is still in the plan of Hengyu Supermarket. The first two to five levels will eliminate forty managers a year, and the first-level convenience stores will eliminate fifty managers. This is already a very large number.
of data.
And they are eliminated every year. This pressure will make every store manager in the group feel nervous. If they want to avoid being fired, they can only work hard to achieve results. The higher the turnover, the more secure their position will be.
Vice President Liu Weifang said: "Li Sheng, I think this implementation is unfair to some store managers under the group. Although all stores are at the same level, they are in different environments and markets, and the economic development conditions of different places are different, it is impossible to judge at all.
Check the store manager’s own ability level.
For example, our Xiangjiang Kowloon store is on the same level as the Baidao Special Economic Zone store, but the turnover is simply impossible to compare, and the consumption levels are different."
Zhou Xiaoning said: "We will not just use turnover to eliminate, there will be many things to discuss with you, and we will also conduct in-depth research on Hengyu Supermarket Group to determine a detailed and thorough plan.
Moreover, this system will not only involve the store manager, but also the entire group employees, including Hengyu Transportation Company, completely breaking the current high salary and low reward system, allowing the group's hard work and talented people to get more rewards, and allowing the group to
Those who are dawdling inside should be thoroughly informed to get out of the group to prevent the group from becoming rigid."
This is an extremely complex system that cannot be decided by Li Guangyu and the executive team in a few days of discussion. How to implement the system in the future, how to ensure fairness, and how to keep employees motivated at all times will require long-term research.
Just fine.
Li Guangyu had never been in management in his previous life. In this life, he relied on a little memory to develop such a big situation like a snowball. Now he needs to rectify the major groups. It is not enough to rely on him to pull the groups away.
