After Luo Jun successfully applied for the job, the first task he received was to hand over the management rights of more than 1,700 stores with Watsons Group.

This workload is a bit large and cannot be done by one person.

The benefits of choosing Luo Jun were also reflected, and he went straight to Watsons Huaguo Branch.

After stepping into the company door again, Luo Jun was filled with emotion. Last time he was "resigned" and left in shame.

But this time, I can be considered the return of the king!

Seeing Luo Jun, many old employees greeted him in surprise: "Mr. Luo, why are you here?"

"Hello, Mr. Luo!"

Luo Jun has been in charge of mainland business for so many years and still has prestige. He has not recruited any of these employees in the branch and brought them to the road step by step.

"Boss?! Why are you here?"

Luo Jun's assistant Xiao Lu shouted in surprise.

Hearing the noise outside, the current general manager, Mike, a native of Xiangjiang who followed Luo Jun last time, was displeased.

He asked his secretary: "What are the employees outside doing? Working hours are so noisy. No wonder there was an accident in the mainland store some time ago. It was caused by Luo Jun's lack of strict discipline!"

The secretary quietly looked at it and quickly turned around to report: "It's Luo Jun who is back!"

Mike was stunned and thought to himself that Luo Jun was coming back to do something. Isn’t this a mess?

Mike has been very annoyed these days. After so many years, he has finally reached his current position from a middle-level manager at the headquarters.

This is the general manager of China Region. Watsons’ personal care chain stores are the largest and the market that the group attaches most importance to!

It was about to make a fortune, but the chain store business was sold by the group...

After the new boss took over, it is still a matter of whether he could still hold this position. The leaders at the headquarters returned to the group one by one, and regional managers like him were abandoned.

I want to go back to the group but I don’t have the right position, so I stayed there, but I’m not sure what the future will be, so Mike has been getting angry these days.

He stood up angrily, opened the office door and came to the public area outside.

Luo Jun was still greeting his old subordinates when he heard someone talking loudly.

"Luo Jun, you are no longer a Watsons employee, what are you doing now?"

When he looked up, Luo Jun found that it was the new general manager Mike shouting. Although he was unhappy, Luo Jun still smiled and said hello: "Hello Mike, I have something to do today."

"Oh? What business can you do? Haven't you been fired by the group?" Mike said impatiently.

In fact, he is not so mean in his usual personality, but he has been really irritable these days and his future is uncertain, so how can he have a good temper?

Luo Jun couldn't help it now, and he said with a stern face: "I'll correct it. I resigned myself, not fired! And what's the reason for that? No one present is outsiders. Everyone knows that it's boring for you to say this."

Mike opened his mouth and wanted to speak but stopped. He knew that Luo Jun was right and had no way to refute it.

But he quickly asked again, "Okay, since you said you are here to do business, what is the matter?"

Before Luo Jun answered, Mike slapped his head and suddenly said: "You are not a business representative of a small cosmetics company. You want to enter the Watsons chain store. I tell you, don't think that you know a lot of people in the company, you can get preferential conditions through relationships. Everything must be done in accordance with the company's rules and regulations!"

This kind of thing is common. People who left Watsons were hired by a cosmetics company with high salaries and then specifically connected to Watsons' channel business. So Mike thought Luo Jun had done this too.

Luo Jun was speechless. Mike was thinking too much. He was too lazy to go around the circle and said directly: "You know that Meigou.com acquired Watsons chain store business. Now I have been hired by Meigou.com to be formally responsible for the chain store business, so..."

There was an uproar and anger in the company, and of course, most people were happy.

Xiao Lu said in surprise: "Boss, have you been hired by Meigou.com to manage all chain stores?!"

"President Luo is still so good. He turned around and changed from the general manager of China to the boss of the entire business department!"

"Congratulations to you, Mr. Luo, for your promotion!"

Mike was also stunned. Of course he knew that the chain store business was acquired by Meigou.com. He was having a headache these days!

Of course, he didn't think Luo Jun was talking nonsense. Everyone was a workplace elite and wouldn't be so naive. Since Luo Jun said that, it proved that things were indeed that way.

But if you say this, wouldn’t Luo Jun be his immediate boss in the future?

Mike is worthy of being an elite who has been in the workplace for many years. He immediately changed his face. He said to Luo Jun with a smile on his face: "It turns out that Mr. Luo has been promoted again. Congratulations! Then Mr. Luo will be the leader of everyone from now on. If we need anything, Mr. Luo will give his instructions!"

Luo Jun is here to do the job today, so of course he didn't have time to upset Mike. He just ordered Mike to gather the middle-level managers of the branch to have a meeting.

Although Luo Jun was hired by Meigou.com to be responsible for the overall chain store business, Meigou.com and Watsons Group have not officially handed over. Strictly speaking, Luo Jun is not qualified to order the branch people to do anything.

But at this time, who would care about this thing? It is obvious that Luo Jun will be his immediate boss in the future and control the fate of these people. Who dares to jump out and say that his actions are inconsistent with the rules?

When the middle-level managers of the branch were summoned to the large conference room, Luo Jun sat in the chief without hesitation. He stood up, supported the conference table with both hands, and glanced around with bright eyes.

He is very familiar with these people in the conference room. He knows everyone's strengths, weaknesses, and preferences clearly. These people are also the foundation for his future establishment of the chain store business unit.

"Dear colleagues, we are facing an opportunity now! Everyone knows that the chain store business has been acquired by Meigou.com as a whole. I believe I don't need to say more about the strength of Meigou.com!"

"This time I met Mr. Wang Ye, chairman of Meigo.com, and Ms. Xu Jing, CEO. Both of them are full of expectations for the development of the chain store business and are willing to give strong support."

"The performance theory in the past will not be available again in the future. In the future, our chain store department will pursue sustainable development, increase consumer satisfaction, and be full of well-known brands in the store!"

"This time I came to the branch to select a group of people, form a work handover team, take over Watsons chain stores, and do business in Asia. Those who are willing to participate, please raise your hands!"

Before Luo Jun finished speaking, everyone in the conference room had raised their hands together, including Mike...

What a joke, this so-called handover group is obviously the senior management of the chain store business department in the future.

For those in the workplace, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Who would be so stupid that he would not raise his hand if he could show his loyalty in front of Luo Jun, his immediate boss.

So Luo Jun directly organized the old subordinates of Watsons Huaguo Branch, and then formed a receiving team with the financial staff of Meigou.com to hand over the Watsons Group.

Many of the people in this team are employees who have worked at Watsons for several years. They are of course very familiar with chain store affairs, and the handover is simply unobstructed.

...

Regarding whether the Watsons personal care chain that was acquired, the senior management of Meigou.com held a special meeting to discuss whether it was necessary to change its name.

The brand "Watsons" is also part of the acquisition of assets. Meigou.com has paid a fee and can be used at will.

Similarly, the "Watsons Distilled Water" acquired by Temasek also includes brand ownership.

Then now there are three companies that have the right to use the brand "Watsons", Watsons Group, Temasek and Meigou.com.

Of course, this was noted during the acquisition negotiations that the "Watsons" brand, Temasek, can only be used for distilled water and beverages, and must not be used for other purposes.

Meigou.com can only use this brand to open a cosmetics chain store.

The issue that Meigou.com is now discussing is not that it cannot continue to use this name, but that it is better to continue to use the brand "Watsons" or to change it to its own brand "Megou".

The participants on the scene were divided into two groups. One group believed that it would be better to continue using the "Washingtons" brand, and the other group advocated changing it to the "Meigo" brand.

"The Watsons brand has a history of more than 100 years and is very famous throughout Asia. I don't think it can be replaced easily." Li Guanghua analyzed objectively.

At that time, I spent 2.5 billion US dollars to acquire the "Watsons Personal Care Chain", among which the "Watsons" brand alone would have a valuation of more than 500 million US dollars. Of course, the money spent cannot be wasted.

"But we acquired this chain store to serve Meigou.com. If the Meigou brand is adopted uniformly, will it play a promotional role in our website?" Xu Jing expressed different opinions.

The two sides represented by the two of them cannot argue and no one can convince anyone.

Wang Ye sat next to him and didn't speak. He was considering whether there was a safer way. In fact, Wang Ye also tended to change to the "Meigo" brand, but suddenly changing the signboard will also have a great impact on the store.

If it is just domestic, it will be much easier to deal with. In the mainland, the American Shopping Network is definitely much more famous than Watsons, but abroad, the American Shopping Network is a bit unknown.

"Domestic...Foreign..." Wang Ye murmured to himself, subconsciously tapping the tabletop with his fingers.

In the conference room, everyone was still discussing fiercely. As a newcomer who just joined, Luo Jun was not in a hurry to speak.
