Spring Breeze Twenty Years

Chapter 904 Opening

October 1st is National Day, which is the sixth day of the ninth lunar month. It is an auspicious day to open the door and welcome good fortune.

Fuyingmen Supermarket Liaoda Store, Sanhao Store, and Fuyingmen Convenience Store No. 1 opened simultaneously.

Since the Liaoning University store is located on the Liaoning University campus, it's not suitable to hold any grand opening celebrations. They just hung up some colorful flags and had Yang Mingwei help hire some students who weren't in class to help distribute flyers.

Xiao Hong proposed setting up a work-study office for college students under the Fuyingmen Supermarket. Yang Mingwei, the lucky student, became the liaison, responsible for contacting the student unions of surrounding colleges such as Liaoning University, China University of Pharmaceutical Sciences, and the Police Academy, to recruit impoverished students to work in the supermarket during their spare time.

Those who receive a salary are considered office staff.

The Northeast Institute of Technology and surrounding schools will definitely be handed over to Xiao Hong.

Because Xiaowei's grandpa's convenience store is small and in a remote location, it's not suitable for holding celebrations. So, they hung up colorful flags and banners, and Xiaowei's dad and a few others set off a few strings of firecrackers, and that was considered their opening.

The opening ceremony will be held at the Sanhao store.

This shop is large and spacious, located in a bustling commercial district, making it the most suitable location.

There were many guests, including leaders from the province and city, leaders from the five districts of Heping, Shenhe, Huanggu, Yuhong, and Tiexi, vice presidents from Northeast Institute of Technology and Liaoning University, vice dean from the Police Academy, representatives from the industrial and commercial system, tax system, public security system, power system, banking system, construction department, urban construction system, Sanhao Street Management Office, Taiyuan Street Management Office, Zhongjie Management Office, and the preparatory office of Jiulu Market Building Materials Market.

Representatives from various local governments, including Andong, Dalian, Benxi, Benxi County, Jibei Xidu, and Longjiang Bingcheng, as well as representatives and agents from various manufacturers, along with reporters from provincial and municipal television stations and local newspapers, made up the large crowd of over a hundred people. The Sanhao Management Office temporarily closed this section of the road, and the branch office dispatched a large number of police officers to maintain order.

The host was sent by the provincial TV station. This opening ceremony was a must-see on the provincial TV news, and no one dared to be sloppy.

Leaders from the province, city, district, and county levels took the stage to speak. Xidu Bingcheng, being a guest from a neighboring province, was also given the opportunity to speak. Then, Director Li from the Sanhao Management Office spoke, and finally, it was Xiaowei's turn to speak.

"Next, please welcome Zhang Wei, representative of the Liaodong Provincial People's Congress, member of the Liaodong Provincial Political Consultative Conference, honorary inspector of the Liaodong Provincial Public Security Department, founder and chairman of Liaodong Brothers Group, to the stage to speak." The host introduced Xiao Wei's titles with sparkling eyes, and warm applause rang out from the audience.

"Distinguished leaders, honored guests, and friends present today, good afternoon."

Brothers Group is a young company, and we are still learning and growing. We are grateful for the support from leaders at all levels and the favor from friends from all walks of life during this process. Our success today is inseparable from your support and help.

Today marks the auspicious opening of the Group's Fu Ying Men Supermarket and Fu Ying Men Convenience Store, as well as the establishment of the Group's Fu Ying Men Supermarket Chain Management Company, Xi Ying Men Shopping Mall Chain Management Company, Fu Ying Men Auto and Motorcycle Sales Chain Management Company, and Rose Hotel Chain Management Company.

Thank you to all the leaders and friends from all walks of life for coming, and thank you for your support.

Fuyingmen Supermarket Chain Management Company has a registered capital of 50 million yuan, while Xiyingmen Shopping Mall Chain Management Company has a registered capital of 30 million yuan. Both companies are committed to the retail of department stores and food, and will work with numerous manufacturers across the country to strive for more convenient services, better product quality, and lower prices.

The company's goal is to provide services to cities in Northeast China with a permanent population of over 500,000 within three years, ensuring the satisfaction of the general public. Within five years, we aim to establish a presence in medium-sized and larger cities in North China, expanding beyond the Shanhaiguan Pass, and creating no fewer than 20,000 jobs.

……

With the care of governments at all levels and the help of friends from all walks of life, we will work together, operate in accordance with the law, pay taxes according to regulations, and strive firmly toward our goals, doing what we should do and contributing our strength to society to the best of our ability.

Thank you again to all the leaders and friends who took time out of their busy schedules to attend this opening ceremony. Thank you, and thank you to all the readers for your unwavering support and love over the past year. Thank you so much.

Xiao Wei handed the microphone to the host and ended his speech amidst applause.

Next, leaders from the provincial, municipal, and district levels went on stage and cut the ribbon together with Xiaowei and Chen Hui. The provincial governor then personally unveiled the red cloth on the plaque.

The opening ceremony concluded successfully amidst the sound of firecrackers.

Sitting in the audience, Xiaowei's mother and Aunt Wang were crying their eyes out. They were laughing and wiping away tears at the same time. They were so happy and proud that they couldn't stop the tears from flowing. They even made Xiaohong and Chen Xiaogenghui, who were sitting next to them, cry.

Then came the banquet. Today, Anji Sanhao Restaurant was closed to the public, focusing all its efforts on completing this reception task. An Laowu, who had already retired to the second line, personally came to the restaurant to guide the kitchen work. Li Na, Sister Jin, and Wei Yun also came, returning to their old jobs to ensure that the reception work went smoothly without any problems.

Most of the leaders and guests attending the thank-you banquet had never been to Anji before, and they were immediately impressed upon entering—by the environment, facilities, ancient music, and service, including the quality and smiles of the staff. Representatives from Xidu and Bingcheng immediately pulled Xiaowei and Chen Hui aside to make demands, insisting that such a restaurant must be opened in Xidu and Bingcheng. The provincial and municipal leaders listened with smiles that brought wrinkles to their faces.

After drinking the soup, the carefully presented dishes were served, and it wasn't just the eyes and ears that were captivated; the stomach and heart surrendered as well.

The aristocratic wine-opening ceremony was a stunning and admiring spectacle from the moment it was unveiled. It was said that Xiaowei and his team had specially acquired a winery in France to ensure the quality of the supply. The provincial governor gave them a thumbs up, praising their dedication and commenting that great things were on the horizon.

The provincial governor said to his secretary, "In the future, when leaders from other provinces or foreign guests come, we can completely entrust the reception to Anji. They can fully represent the image of our province."

"Let's have the officials from the provincial reception system come to Anji to learn from their experience, instead of just resting on their laurels. Also, let Xiaowei and Xiaohui provide guidance to our various branch offices when they have time; this will greatly help improve our province's external image."

The provincial governor looked around, perhaps not finding the person he was looking for, and then said to his secretary, "Tell the propaganda department, the television station, and the newspapers to be more meticulous in their future propaganda efforts. The supermarket and this Anji Restaurant can absolutely become representatives of Liaodong's economic development. They are fully qualified to be featured in our province's propaganda brochure and become our calling card."

The secretary nodded and took out a small notebook to neatly record the notes.
