Chapter 156: New Officials Take Office, Fire Burns the Camps (5K)

Zhao Xiangjun looked confused: "What's an inflatable doll for? A rag doll?"

Chen Xiao laughed and said, "It's a toy for adult men, but I don't need it. I have my baby Xiangjun!"

Zhao Xiangjun immediately understood what an inflatable doll was and spat, "You're becoming more and more indecent every day!"

She took out the key from the drawer and threw it to Chen Xiao, saying, "Change your car tomorrow. I bought you a car that all men would like!"

Chen Xiao laughed and said, "Baby, I want to drive now!"

Zhao Xiangjun rolled her eyes and said, "Are you crazy? It's late at night and you've been drinking, why are you driving?"

Chen Xiao stood up, hugged her and held her horizontally, saying, "Let's go, drive there."

He drove for two hours without getting tired.
Endurance 102 has been sent and received at will, attack with power, unstoppable!
In the end, Zhao Xiangjun couldn't help but yelled: "Chen Xiao, I will buy you an inflatable doll tomorrow."

He surrendered immediately. If he didn't surrender and really bought an inflatable doll, what fun would he have in the future!

At Junxiao Plaza, the new and old property owners have completed the handover.

Because the vast majority of management personnel have not been replaced, the handover process is much faster!
There are not many personnel changes involved in this incident. Most people are reluctant to leave such a good square. After all, it is comfortable here and the income is high.

What surprised everyone was that the vice president of business was replaced, which is the most important position besides the general manager.

The former vice president also worked for more than ten years before his wife cooked porridge for him. How could he be fired?

I don’t know if Mr. Xu didn’t like him and took the opportunity to replace him.

There are also rumors that it is the opinion of the group company. There are a lot of rumors, and most of them are difficult to tell whether they are true or not!
Xu Jun held Zhao Hui's resume in his hand and felt complicated!
If he were to decide on his own, Zhao Hui would obviously not be qualified to be the vice president of business, so making him a floor supervisor would be considered a courtesy.

Above the floor supervisor is the operations manager, and above the operations manager is the deputy general manager of business!
He couldn't help but wonder if this Zhao Hui coming here to be the vice president was a thorn planted by the group in his side!

It seems that I have not yet gained Mr. Xu's trust, and Zhao Hui is obviously more favored by the emperor!
During the morning meeting, Xu Jun introduced Zhao Hui to the management team. Today was Zhao Hui's first day working at Junxiao Plaza.

The office environment here is a step up from what it was at Yino. At Yino, except for Liu Haoran who had an independent office, all the others had open office areas.

When you come to Junxiao Plaza, you will find that the deputy general manager of business has his own independent office.

In the spacious and bright office, there is a Chinese-style desk and a bookcase, with a simple meeting sofa opposite.

It’s not large, but it’s very stylish!

Zhao Hui never dreamed that one day he would work in such an office environment and earn a monthly salary of 5 yuan.

The extension phone on the desk rang: "Hello!"

"Mr. Zhao, would it be convenient for you to come to my office?"

The call was from Xu Jun. The general manager called him, so of course he had to go over immediately.

After hanging up the phone, I went straight to Xu Jun's office. There was a meeting room between their two offices, so they were very close.

"Come, Mr. Zhao, sit down!"

Xu Jun personally poured a glass of water and placed it in front of Zhao Hui. Zhao Hui quickly bowed to express his gratitude, showing enough respect to Xu Jun.

Not to mention the relationship between superiors and subordinates in terms of positions, the fact that he has been active in the Hanjiang business circle for so many years is enough to make Zhao Hui respect him!

"We had a meeting this morning, and everyone was talking too much about official matters, so please come over and sit down for a while!"

Zhao Hui quickly said, "Thank you, Mr. Xu. I also hope to learn from you more often!"

Xu Jun laughed heartily and waved his hand, saying, "Boss Zhao, we'll be working together from now on. Don't be polite. Only if we work together well can we move forward in an orderly manner!"

According to the division of labor in the plaza, the general manager not only has to coordinate the overall work, but also has to deal with some external relationships and public relations of key departments.

The Vice President of Business is responsible for handling internal investment promotion and operations in accordance with the goals set by the group and the tasks assigned by the General Manager.

Zhao Hui dealt with Xu Jun cautiously. Mr. Xu was a shrewd and calculating person, and every word he said seemed to have deep meaning and needed to be carefully considered.

Zhao Hui obviously didn't have this level, but fortunately he was cautious and would think carefully before answering any questions.

It was manageable. After walking out of Xu Jun's office, he took a deep breath. There was so much to learn!

Just getting along with people is a big deal, and with so much business work, he is completely overwhelmed.

Fortunately, there are investment managers and operations managers to assist!

The investment manager is a member of the old team, while the operations manager is a new one.

The new operations manager is Wu Fang, who was interviewed at Wansheng Plaza below and is very familiar with the operating system of Wansheng Plaza.

Junxiao Plaza is now basically following the old rules, without too many changes. After all, it has just been handed over, and there may be some changes in the future as time goes by!
When a new leader takes office, flexible subordinates will find something to report even if they have nothing to do, to make their presence felt and hope to leave a good impression on the leader!

There's a knock on the door!

"Come in!" Zhao Hui's voice became increasingly louder and more powerful, a sign of his increasing self-confidence.

Wu Fang came in and said, "Leader, I have two things to report to you!"

Zhao Hui thought about how Liu Haoran greeted his subordinates in the past, and imitated him with a smile: "Manager Wu, please sit down!"

Wu Fang immediately felt that the new leader was easy to get along with.

Wu Fanglai had two things to prepare.

Part of it is the marketing budget for next year. The annual marketing expenses of the predecessor Jiangzhou Wansheng Plaza are about 300 million, which is very small.

This is mainly because Jiangzhou Wansheng is already very mature, and the group has been cutting costs by cutting this part of the expenses again and again. They believe that this kind of shopping mall does not require so much marketing, and the natural customer flow is already very large.

Now that the boss has changed, Wu Fang doesn't know what the new boss likes. Although Mr. Xu said in the morning meeting that he would report according to the needs.

But how much is this demand? How to measure it? It’s the same as not saying it. He is in trouble! He doesn’t know how to make this budget.

Zhao Hui knew about this matter, and Xu Wu even called him specially and told him what Chen Xiao meant. She called him personally because he was mainly responsible for reviewing the budget!
Hearing Wu Fang's question, he thought for a moment and said, "Well, let's start with a budget of 1500 million. The plaza has just been renamed, so we still need to do some publicity in the early stages!"

Wu Fang was surprised. He had been thinking about cutting the budget a bit. He also felt that there was no need to spend so much effort on advertising for such a mature shopping mall.

Reduce budget expenditures, and the savings will be profits, which will make it easier to achieve profit targets.

"Boss, isn't this too much? Will the group think we're asking for too much?"

Zhao Hui knew that he was just reminding her in a good way, so he said, "Don't worry, just do as I say. I'll explain to the group later!"

"Also, please note that of the 1500 million, 1300 million is allocated for PR activities, and 200 million for SP fees! Take out 1300 million of the 1000 million for PR activities and talk to Chen Xiao from Dr. Feng Robotics Co., Ltd. about using smart equipment to attract traffic and create check-in points!"

PR activities refer to marketing activities required for some art display, promotion, and large-scale on-site events; SP fees refer to marketing activities such as cash coupons.

What? Wu Fang was stunned. Aren’t you blatantly operating behind the scenes?
Will the group agree to your plan? You're a traditional retailer, and you're looking for a smart device company to partner with for an event. Are you kidding me?
The key point is that you specified that you wanted to spend 1000 million. The most outrageous thing is that you also designated the other party's business person. If this is not a private transaction, what is it?

You are openly transferring benefits!

Could it be more obvious than this? Wu Fang felt that the question of whether the new leader was reliable or not was no longer a question of whether he was reliable or not. This was simply audacity!
Aren’t you afraid of being caught and sent to jail?

Zhao Hui didn't pay attention to his reaction, he was calculating his account!

He believes that Junxiao Plaza still has potential to be tapped, and that it needs to be vigorously promoted since it has just been taken over.

Therefore, the marketing budget had to be higher. At the same time, he knew Chen Xiao's promise that he would compensate Junxiao Plaza for the SP expenses based on the amount spent on Dr. Feng's robot.

In this way, he spent 1000 million to conduct traffic diversion and introduce intelligent equipment with Dr. Feng’s robot, while leaving 300 million for normal PR activities was more than enough!
The SP fee was 200 million, plus Chen Xiao's counter-subsidy of 1000 million, totaling 1200 million. I believe no other shopping mall in China would dare to be so generous. And how much sales can this 1200 million generate? For example, a consumer voucher worth 1000 yuan off 100 yuan.

The difference of 100 is borne by the mall and the merchant in proportion. The general ratio is 3 for the mall: 7 for the customer. For some big brands, the ratio can be negotiated to 55:.

Even if the proportion of responsibility is 55:1200, 24 million is equivalent to 2.4 consumption vouchers. If all of them are redeemed, the business that can be leveraged will be million.

Junxiao Plaza's predecessor, Jiangzhou Wansheng Plaza, had annual sales of around 15 billion yuan, and this performance alone could increase its sales by 16%.

This is just the direct sales brought about by the consumption coupons, and the drainage effect brought about by the large-scale investment of consumption coupons by shopping malls has not been calculated.

After thinking about this, he looked up and saw Wu Fang staring at him blankly. He couldn't help but frown and said, "Manager Wu, please do it according to my plan. When you are done, give it to me and I will report to the group!"

Wu Fang thought to himself, "You're awesome! If your plan can get through, I'll show you how to eat shit while standing upside down!"

He said that he was not familiar with the new leader at this time and would definitely not oppose the leader's opinions. He would just do as he was told. When he encountered difficulties, he would know to ask more for the opinions of his subordinates.

"What's the other thing?" Zhao Hui asked him.

Wu Fang said, "The other thing is a project that we agreed on when President Xiao was here! We've already confirmed the partner for next year's on-site disinfection project, but the contract hasn't been signed yet. I want to ask for your opinion. Should we continue with the process?"

Disinfection? Many shopping malls have merchants contact disinfection companies to come and do the disinfection themselves. As long as they do it on time according to the mall's requirements every year, it will be fine!

But Jiangzhou Wansheng used to be quite powerful and forced merchants to pay money to be handled by the mall.

This is definitely not what Wansheng Group means. No company would be interested in such a small amount of money.

A store of more than 100 square meters only costs a few hundred yuan.

The entire square is worth only a few hundred thousand.

"Has this kind of project ever gone through a three-party price comparison before?"

Wu Fang replied: "No, it was Mr. Xiao who personally negotiated and finally decided which company to do it for. Anyway, the expenses are all paid by the merchant!"

Zhao Hui frowned. There was something fishy here. The merchants paid because the plaza was too powerful. If the price was unreasonable, the merchants would complain.

The square was the villain for nothing!

"Manager Wu, please talk to a few more companies and do a three-way price comparison. Consider the service and price and find a balance! Then let me know and I'll decide which one to hire!"

After Wu Fang left, Zhao Hui rubbed his forehead. Doing this is really different from doing physical work. When making decisions, it is really brain-burning.

I was afraid of making mistakes accidentally.

The operations manager had just left, without giving him time to rest, when the investment manager Sun Wei came to find him.

He was given a bunch of renewal terms for brands that were about to expire for his approval. Zhao Hui did not have the final say on the renewal terms, so Xu Jun had to sign.

But his opinion is very important. After all, he is the deputy general manager in charge. If he cannot pass this hurdle, he will never be able to get to Xu Jun.

Zhao Hui flipped through it and found that most of them increased by 7%. He had done his homework in advance and this was the lowest increase in Jiangzhou Wansheng Plaza before!

I put the 7% increase aside for now, and when I looked back, I suddenly saw that the "Yirui" brand was marked in red, with no note of the increase.

"What is happening?"

Sun Wei said cautiously, "This was a plan made when President Xiao was here. The ones marked in red are the brands that have been adjusted. The original plan was to replace 'Yi Rui' with 'Sa Mo'!"

Zhao Hui crossed it out with a pen. "'Yirui' will renew the contract normally, and the rent increase will be based on the normal level in the market!"

"Also, find a spot for the 'Samo' brand on the first floor. Let's pick one from these Four Seasons clothing stores."

Sun Wei was stunned, and suddenly remembered that his leader came from "Yino". No wonder he rejected the idea of ​​adjusting the "Yirui" brand right away.

But if you ask them to put the "Samo" brand on the first floor and choose one of the stores currently operated by Four Seasons Clothing, they will not do it.

He expressed his doubts, "Leader, if we ask Four Seasons Clothing to use their own location to create another brand, I'm afraid they won't agree!"

Zhao Hui sneered, "His position? They're all in the mall. Which one belongs to Four Seasons Clothing? 'Samo' might not even give it to him. There are several Four Seasons Clothing positions in the mall. Hurry and negotiate for alternative brands!"

He knew that Xia Bin had harassed his sister in the store a few days ago. In addition, Chen Xiao had now taken action against Four Seasons Clothing, so he naturally had to be the vanguard.

Sun Wei is an old hand at this plaza. He thinks the new leader is a little too arrogant. After all, it is Four Seasons Clothing, one of the largest retailers in Jiangzhou.

Even if you are a new official and want to make three big moves, you can't just start setting fire to the entire camp.

You are uprooting them. Will we ever meet again or cooperate with each other in the future? Can you, Zhao Hui, stay in Junxiao Plaza forever?

If one day you go to a weak shopping mall and need support from Four Seasons Clothing, aren’t you afraid that they will kill you?

How could he know Zhao Hui's situation? Unless Chen Xiao or Zhao Xiangjun drove him away, Zhao Hui was ready to die in Junxiao Group for the rest of his life. There was no need for him to change jobs.

He kindly reminded Zhao Hui, "Boss, Four Seasons Clothing is one of the most powerful retailers in Jiangzhou. Most shopping malls have to curry favor with them."

Zhao Hui said, "Just do as I say."

Sun Wei no longer insisted on his own opinion. Any further action would offend his superiors. He had already sensed Zhao Hui's impatience!
But as he left Zhao Hui's office, he turned around and said, "Boss, I heard from the development manager of Four Seasons Clothing that their CEO Xia has an appointment with CEO Xu!"

Zhao Hui nodded to indicate that he understood and didn't care. Even Mr. Xu couldn't protect him.

Xia Bin took two boxes of tea from the trunk of his Cullinan as gifts and came to Junxiao Square to visit Xu Jun!
Contrary to rumors, the passenger flow of Jiangzhou Wansheng Plaza will not drop sharply after it is renamed Junxiao Plaza.

Looking at the traffic in the parking lot today, it is as busy as ever, which may have something to do with the fact that the management team has not changed!
Previously, Xia Bin relied on his good personal relationship with Peng Yu, the regional general manager of Wansheng Group, and did not interact much with Xu Jun. Now the situation is stronger than him, and Peng Yu can't help him.

Although Xu Jun is still the general manager of the plaza, he has more power than before and has fewer reporting levels.

Xia Bin came today to repair the relationship, and at the same time, he wanted to communicate with Xu Jun about the "Samo" replacing the "Yirui" brand, as well as the renewal of 5 other brands on the first floor.

As the general manager of Four Seasons Clothing, Xu Jun naturally had to give face, so he asked his assistant to make tea and called the investment and operation managers over.

On the one hand, they may be aware of some of the situations mentioned by the customers and can make supplements at any time.

In addition, customers may also raise some requirements that require them to make a record.

After all, they are all the handlers.

"Mr. Xu, I'm so sorry. I've been back for so long, and I've just taken over the business and am still getting used to it, so I haven't come to visit you yet!"

"This time, I specifically asked General Peng to help introduce me. I must come and pay my respects!"

Xu Jun smiled and said, "Boss Peng is my old leader!"

Calling someone "old leader" can mean respect, but it can also mean that there is a clear distinction between the two.

At his age, it is difficult for Xia Bin to read his thoughts from his expression.

After a brief exchange of greetings, Xia Bin stated his purpose.

"Mr. Xu, I've previously communicated with the Wansheng District Office. They're planning to give us the 'Yirui' store in the business men's wear area a place in 'Samo'. We've already drawn up the blueprints for this store, but the contract hasn't been signed yet. I hope we can expedite the process!"

The brand "Samo" is very good, and Xu Jun wanted it, but when he heard him say "Yi Rui", his brows immediately frowned into the shape of a "川"!

Didn't Vice President Zhao Hui come from Yirui? He would definitely be against this plan.

Besides, why do you, "Sa Mo", have to aim at the position of "Yi Rui"?
