Chapter 768 The bragging force has become a reality (the last few hours)
After lunch, Shen Jiayi drove, and she and Xia Zejiang went to the Red Star Macalline Mall in the south of Qicheng, planning to go to the boss of Ruian Furniture to see if there was any suitable furniture.
Xia Zekai and his family of four went home to rest first.
Xia Zekai and Zhang Xu drank almost a pound each at noon yesterday, and drank a lot of wine with his father-in-law, old man, and third uncle in the evening. Although he drank less at noon today, his body couldn't help it, so he thought about taking a nap.
Recovery is faster.
Luo Xiyun knew that her husband had other business tonight, so she played with Yatou and Tongtong in the living room, not letting the two sisters disturb her father's rest.
When Xia Zekai woke up, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon.
After gently rubbing his temples for a while, he went to the bathroom in the master bedroom to wash his face, changed into decent clothes, and said to his wife: "Daughter-in-law, I'm leaving first. You guys can eat at home tonight."
Good order."
"Well, pay attention to yourself and don't let others fool you..." Luo Xiyun thought for a while and warned him.
She is always wary of officials.
When Xia Zekai heard his wife say this, he couldn't help laughing immediately: "Don't worry, unless I volunteer, who else can trick me."
"Besides, even if you really cheated me, I would refuse to admit it afterward. I still have this shameless skill." Xia Zekai laughed and left.
"Bah!" Luo Xiyun scolded him with a smile, but she could also feel the bitterness in her husband's tone.
Wang Hongsheng told him that Zhou Wenyi wanted to eat some authentic local dishes without the fancy stuff.
Xia Zekai thought for a while and canceled his original plan to stay at the Qicheng Hotel. Finally, he booked a room at Seat 44, and the items were not expensive.
He went over early and waited.
When he first came here, the owner of the store happened to be here, recognized him, and said hello to him.
Wang Hongsheng and Zhou Wenyi came over before six o'clock. It was not too late.
Xia Zekai thought that this person was not bad, he had a sense of time, and he didn't "get it" just because of his identity.
He doesn't like people who pretend to be worth twenty-five or eighty thousand even though they have some power.
"Boss Xia, this is Mr. Zhou." Wang Hongsheng made a brief introduction.
Xia Zekai had already smiled and stretched out his hand to say hello: "Mr. Zhou, good evening."
"Haha!" Zhou Wenyi and Xia Zekai shook hands and laughed, and he said: "I heard Comrade Hongsheng talking about Mr. Xia yesterday. After I went back, I have been looking forward to chatting with Mr.
The outstanding local entrepreneurs in the city got what they wanted today."
The three of us sat down and a waiter brought us menus.
Xia Zekai gave it to Zhou Wenyi first. Zhou Wenyi read it over and the first thing he ordered was ‘fried spring rolls’. He still couldn’t forget the dishes from last night.
When he saw the 'Eight-Treasure Rice', he also ordered it and gave the rest to Wang Hongsheng.
"Comrade Hongsheng, take another look," Zhou Wenyi said.
Xia Zekai took the opportunity to take out the Guojing G3 he brought over and unpacked it, and said: "Mr. Zhou, you are here in Qicheng. Let's try Qicheng's local wine tonight. This one is no worse than Moutai and Wuliangye."
, the taste is also very good.”
Hearing what he said, Zhou Wenyi smiled even more happily. He said: "When I go to a place, I like to understand the local urban culture, including the wine culture. This is the national quintessence left by our ancestors."
Wang Hongsheng, who was ordering next to him, was stunned for a moment, but he knew that this wine was really not much cheaper than Moutai Wuliangye.
But the one who brought the wine was Boss Xia. He was rich and didn't care about these three things.
After Wang Hongsheng ordered a few dishes, he handed the menu to Xia Zekai.
Xia Zekai added a few final dishes and handed the order to the waiter next to him.
The waiter was still thinking about what these people did. They were quite rich and drank such expensive wine.
While the food was being served in the restaurant, with Wang Hongsheng as the intermediary, Xia Zekai and Zhou Wenyi chatted.
We started talking about economic development.
They were not talking about specific fields, but about analyzing the current economic development situation and problems from a macro perspective. Xia Zekai combined his experience in his previous life with his practical experience in this life, and his words were clear and logical.
Zhou Wenyi himself has done in-depth research on economic development. He is not just a man who is good at doing business. Listening to what Xia Zekai said is full of useful information, he pays more and more attention to Xia Zekai.
"This really makes me meet a master." Zhou Wenyi was particularly surprised.
The main reason is that Xia Zekai is too young. Now he really understands what Wang Hongsheng said. It is inevitable that Xia Zekai can go from nothing to one of the "Top Ten Outstanding Entrepreneurs in the City" in three years.
"What is Mr. Xia's company's annual production target for this year?" Zhou Wenyi interjected and asked.
Xia Zekai didn't hide anything, and continued to say with a smile: "The half-year sales set at the beginning of the year is 1.5 billion, and so far, it can still be completed."
He continued: "I set a full-year sales target for myself at that time, planning to achieve annual sales of more than 3 billion yuan. Judging from the current sales situation, as long as the current good development situation is maintained and no major economic changes occur,
This goal can still be achieved.”
"What is the 'major economic change' that Mr. Xia mentioned?" Zhou Wenyi was quite curious.
Xia Zekai said: "For example, in the economic crisis and global economic problems, in the general environment, all companies are in recession. If workers cannot get income, they are reluctant to consume. Our company's production and sales will also be affected."
In the final analysis, the products produced by their company are not related to the fundamentals of people's livelihood. When the general environment is not good, they can be bought or not.
Zhou Wenyi nodded. Xia Zekai's thinking was very clear and he had a thorough understanding of the consequences. Regardless of whether he had corresponding countermeasures, at least he would not panic when the environment became bad.
After the dishes were served one by one, Zhou Wenyi took a piece of 'fried spring roll' and took a bite while standing with minced ginger and vinegar sauce. He chewed it slowly and said, "This one is different from the one yesterday."
"There is also Chinese toon in it. This thing is really delicious and very fresh." Zhou Wenyi became more and more satisfied as he ate.
Xia Zekai nodded and said: "Now is the season when the first wave of Chinese toon comes out of the market. If you use toon to mix into a small tofu, tsk tsk, that would be beautiful."
After finishing speaking, Xia Zekai opened the door and shouted outside: "Waiter, add another toon to the tofu. Tell your boss to put more toon."
"I'll be there right away." The waiter left quickly and had to go to the boss to ask for instructions.
The boss just specifically told me to take care of myself in this room.
Wang Hongsheng pointed at his figure and said: "Mr. Zhou, have you seen it? This is money and willfulness."
"A plate of food only costs a few dozen yuan. Let's just have fun eating it." Xia Zekai sat back in his seat and said nonchalantly.
Zhou Wenyi also smiled and continued to talk about their views on economic development based on the topic just now.
Wang Hongsheng was a spectator throughout the whole process today, and he just watched Xia Zekai talking there. He silently remembered some of the opinions that Xia Zekai expressed in his heart.
He was a little annoyed that he didn't bring a notebook and pen, otherwise he would have had to take them out on the spot and record down some of what Xia Zekai said.
It’s no joke that a good memory is worse than a bad pen.
"How does Mr. Xia think the economy will develop in the next few years?" Zhou Wenyi asked him this question when the three of them poured a second glass of wine.
It was difficult to answer this. Xia Zekai thought for a moment and said, "This should be viewed dialectically and divided into several aspects."
"Please speak!" Zhou Wenyi was very polite. He wanted to hear Xia Zekai's opinions.
Then I heard Xia Zekai say: "From a national level, the development of real estate to stimulate the consumption of various upstream and downstream industries should be a matter of setting the tone. I think Mr. Zhou should know better than me, so I won't be embarrassed."
"From a business perspective, I personally think that in the next 10 years, if we cannot clearly understand the positioning of our business, cannot accept emerging things, cannot develop on multiple fronts, and cannot obtain production and sales guarantees through multiple channels, it will be very difficult for us to do so.
It is possible that at some point in the future it will not be able to keep up with the development of the times."
"This is very scary. At best, there will be no sales, and at worst, it will go bankrupt." Xia Zekai said seriously.
The expression on Zhou Wenyi's face didn't change much, but he was shocked in his heart!
During the Chinese New Year this year, he discussed this issue with an old classmate who was engaged in economic research. To his great surprise, what Xia Zekai said at this moment was almost the same as what his old classmate said.
You must know that his old classmate is a veteran in the field of economic research, and his articles can be used for reference by officials at the level of feudal officials.
But Xia Zekai is just the boss of a local enterprise, so it's really incredible that he has such a vision.
Thinking of this, Zhou Wenyi asked again: "Mr. Xia is in the business, and he must have more experience in the development of enterprises. I will take this opportunity today to ask Mr.
, what can we do to ensure that the company can survive for a long time.”
There is a reason why he asked this. Just like what Xia Zekai just mentioned, there are many companies whose products have no sales. No sales means no money. Companies without money can only go bankrupt in the end.
road.
But according to Xia Zekai's wishes, he gained something.
Wang Hongsheng also listened more carefully. When he and Xia Zekai were chatting together, he never heard Xia Zekai mention this.
"Let me put it this way, take my company as an example. We first did offline sales. After discovering that pure offline sales had limitations, I accepted emerging things and started online sales. My company is
Suddenly the sales situation opened up here.”
"But later, when I focused on online sales and neglected offline development, I found that pure online sales also had limitations, so I changed my thinking and vigorously developed my own offline channels."
"Not only that, I have also developed terminal channels including large and medium-sized supermarkets and maternity and baby stores. From these aspects, our channel basically covers everything imaginable."
"My suggestion, in fact, my set of things can be flexibly used in many companies, not just food companies." Xia Zekai said that after opening it, it has been extended to a wide range of aspects.
The three of them drank and ate while waiting for Xia Zekai's whimsical ideas to make delicious additions. When they heard something so wonderful, Zhou Wenyi and Wang Hongsheng kept shouting "yes".
When Xia Zekai couldn't speak anymore, Zhou Wenyi said: "Listen to what Mr. Xia just said, Mr. Xia attaches great importance to online sales."
"It's not just a matter of importance, I personally think that this is a key development trend in the future." Xia Zekai said.
He gave an example: "Mr. Zhou may not have paid attention to online sales. Let me tell you some data."
"The current online platforms are mainly Taobao, JD.com, etc. These two are currently the largest trading platforms in the domestic online sales field."
“Taobao launched a ‘Double Eleven’ shopping festival promotion, and their single-day transaction volume on November 11, 2009 was 52 million.”
“But in 2010, the transaction volume on Double Eleven reached 1 billion, in just one day.”
Zhou Wenyi and Wang Hongsheng stopped talking again.
When it comes to everything, the comparison of numbers is the most intuitive.
Anyone who is not a fool will understand what the two numbers Xia Zekai mentioned mean, and they have created a turnover of 1 billion in one day. This must be a magnificent picture.
Xia Zekai's company was selected as one of the "Top Ten Outstanding Entrepreneurs in Qicheng" last year, and his company's annual sales were just over 1.5 billion.
However, Taobao’s one-day transaction volume on Double Eleven is almost the same as its annual sales.
Before Xia Zekai finished speaking, he said loudly: "Mr. Zhou, Mayor Wang, I can say this, in the next few years, as more and more companies realize the importance of online sales, more and more companies will
The more people accept the consumption concept of 'online shopping', it will surely create many incredible figures, and its transaction volume will continue to refresh the public's awareness."
Xia Zekai made two cognitions, and both Zhou Wenyi and Wang Hongsheng understood that this point was very critical.
Wang Hongsheng also smiled and said: "Mr. Zhou, Boss Xia vomited blood today and revealed all his secrets."
"I am very fortunate to be able to listen to what Mr. Xia said today." Zhou Wenyi solemnly picked up the wine glass, stretched it towards Xia Zekai, and said, "I would like to toast Mr. Xia."
"This is impossible, I can't afford it." Xia Zekai was still measured.
Zhou Wenyi shook his head slightly and said: "I plan to compile what Mr.
In front of some people, this theory may be extended to many companies, Mr. Xia doesn't mind."
"..." Xia Zekai shook his head. He doesn't mind. It's not a big secret. Anyone with some experience can figure it out. Some companies are even ahead of him.
Otherwise, why would his sales rank third on the Double Eleven shopping street day?
What he just said was like bragging a lot of awesomeness, but one day many people will find that the awesomeness they boasted has actually come true.
Xia Zekai didn't know the deeper meaning of Zhou Wenyi's words, but Wang Hongsheng understood.
He probably realized that this might not bring any direct benefit to Xia Zekai, but it would bring immeasurable potential benefits to the development of Xia Zekai's enterprise.
"Everyone really has his own luck!" Wang Hongsheng couldn't help but sigh.
He didn't expect that when he encouraged Xia Zekai yesterday, he actually blew him away.
