Chapter 233 The Eve of Opening(1/2)
Since Li Dong had made up his mind, Sun Tao no longer stopped him.
Although Sun Tao lacks some decisiveness, he is decisive in his work.
Seeing that the situation was not contrary to the situation, he immediately said: "The most urgent thing now is personnel recruitment and supply channels. Will a meeting be held later?"
Li Dong nodded and said, "Let the heads of the Commodity Department and the Human Resources Department come over."
After saying that, he added: "Let Chen Qian come here together, and see you in the conference room in half an hour."
Sun Tao nodded and hurried out of the office.
...
An hour later, Li Dong arranged the task.
The directors of the Human Resources Department and the Commodity Department both had bitter faces. This task was not ordinary arduous.
Ten stores are about to open, eight stores are ready to open, and the remaining sixteen are also striving to open at the end of the year.
More than 30 stores want to support this scene and recruit at least 2,000 employees. This time, the first batch of ten stores opened will be recruited 700 people according to the plan, and in addition, there will be a staffing reserve for the next opening, and at least nearly 1,000 people will be recruited at one time.
It is approaching the end of the year, and it is not easy to recruit so many people at once.
Fortunately, Pingchuan is the provincial capital, and this time, it is not about recruiting professional talents. I hold more job fairs and advertise more. Although the task is a bit arduous, I can still complete it with all my efforts.
The Human Resources Director complained that it seems that he will work overtime this month, and he may even be deprived of the rest days.
Compared to the personnel affairs side, the head of the commodity department is only bitter.
As long as you want to run around the city, you need to develop new channels this time. Those suppliers are from all over the world. In addition, there are not many elderly people in the commodity department, so he probably has to go on a business trip to the channel himself.
Li Dong didn't care why they thought, as long as they could complete the task.
If you usually support these people with high salaries, if you can't even do this, what's the use of them?
After sending away the heads of the two departments, Li Dong said to Chen Qian: "You have nothing to do recently?"
Chen Qian rolled her eyes and said, "What do you mean? I don't think I'm working? The Public Relations Department has nothing to do, and I have to do it. Why don't you get promoted to me?"
Li Dong coughed dryly and said quickly: "Since you are fine, I'll give you a task."
"What mission?" Chen Qian said vigilantly.
"It's not a big deal. I want to borrow another loan. You are familiar with the bank. Try to make them faster when lending."
After hearing what Li Dong said, Chen Qian breathed a sigh of relief.
Loans are indeed not a big deal, but Chen Qian still said: "It's not okay to make money from nothing. I don't have that much face."
"Don't worry, I'll mortgage the land in Washington. The land price has risen again recently. The land price in Washington is now estimated at least 150 million yuan. Is this okay?"
"no problem!"
Chen Qian immediately gave a positive answer. With collateral, the bank wishes to give you a loan.
"How much are you going to borrow?"
"It's just right to make up 40 million yuan to get a full 100 million yuan. It would be fine if I could get more, but I'm short of money now."
Li Dong rubbed his forehead. Now the distance is empty, and it is really not enough to have no money to reserve.
The distance may soon face a war. Those supermarkets have much more foundation than those in the distance. If you really want to drag it down with the distance, you may not be able to drag it down.
In addition, the distribution center also needs to prepare some money.
Although it may not be negotiated in the near future, it is still necessary to prepare in advance.
Not to mention anything else, you have to prepare a portion of the money for the land, and the others can be delayed until next year when Baidu stocks can be sold. Li Dong would not panic at that time.
After handing over the task to everyone, Li Dong ignored it.
Speaking of opening, Yuanfang now has experience.
The reason why this time felt difficult was just because time was too tight, but everyone had not made any preparations in the early stage.
Although it is a bit difficult now, it is not impossible to complete it.
...
In November 2005, the name of the distant place appeared again in the eyes of the people of Hirakawa.
The recruitment sections of major newspapers are recruitment advertisements from far away, and the streets and alleys are full of promotional advertisements for the opening of new stores from far away.
In each talent market, almost all employees from afar are stationed.
The city TV station also sent Yuanfang advertising for half a month. Yuanfang Supermarket, these words made everyone's ears numb.
When it comes to publicity, Li Dong is willing to invest in it.
Originally, several other supermarkets were planning to make trouble while Yuanfang’s new store was not open, such as asking the industrial and commercial firefighters to make some more congestion.
But Li Dong personally came forward to talk to several leaders in the city for a while, and soon these small actions stopped.
Speaking of which, the distance is now the big family of Pingchuan.
In just one Pingchuan, there are forty stores in the distance, and the headquarters in the distance will soon be settled in Pingchuan, and the distribution center is also very likely to settle in Pingchuan. The Pingchuan government is not stupid, so it naturally needs to protect the taxpayer in the distance.
Without the government's intervention, several supermarkets knew that they could not stop Yuanfang's new store from opening.
Since it cannot be stopped, it depends on your real skills.
In the following time, the major supermarkets became quiet, but Li Dong knew that this was the tranquility before the storm.
You don’t need to guess that these people are in trouble. When the business opens, most of these people will move.
After all, if we don’t defeat the distant place, Pingchuan will not have their living space. We do business just to make money. The distant place is now grabbing their bowl of food, who is willing to do so?
As time passed day by day, Li Dong kept a string tense.
You can't relax at this stage now, who knows what trouble will happen to the other party?
In order to prevent several supermarkets from coming to the wrong place, Li Dong even sent out the security department, which had not yet finished the training.
There are more than three security personnel guarding several stores that are about to open now.
Li Dong was mainly afraid that those people would cause damage. If the store site was destroyed the day before opening, it would be a big trouble.
Now the opening hours are being promoted. If they cannot open the business, it will not only embarrass you in the distance, but also create the impression of being untrustworthy, which Li Dong cannot tolerate.
Of course, these supermarkets are well-known companies and may not necessarily do such things.
It's hard to predict, and Pingchuan has some small and medium-sized supermarkets, who knows if anyone will take advantage of the situation to rob.
It’s true that Li Dong’s worries are not unreasonable.
Within two days, Li Dong received a call from Zhou Haidong in the middle of the night, and the security guard caught several people who wanted to do damage.
There were four people coming to make trouble. In the middle of the night, I touched the door of a new store with an axe and other tools. Several security personnel did not pay attention for a moment. The security door was knocked on and the glass door was not smashed.
Fortunately, before they could make any other moves, several security personnel subdued them.
If the person was sent to the police station, Li Dong would not care about the others.
The smashed glass door was quickly replaced with a new one, and Li Dong became more and more alert. These people really dared to play with the black man.
In order to prevent it, Li Dong sent all the security department personnel out one after another.
Maybe it was the first time I was caught and the person in the secret gave up, and the next destruction did not happen again.
The opening hours of ten stores in the long range are getting closer and closer.
At this time, Li Dong was no longer nervous. When things were about to come, he had made all preparations. What everyone next looked at was strength.
...
November 30, the last day before opening.
Although the weather had become colder, Sun Tao was still sweating profusely when he entered the office.
In order to prepare for it, he inspected all ten stores in the morning, and then rushed back to the company without stopping, which was so tired.
Li Dong poured him a glass of water and asked, "How is it?"
Sun Tao took a sip of water, took a long breath, and then smiled and said, "I haven't worked so hard for a long time. I remember that when the first store in Dongping opened, I was in this mood at that time. Later, Fucheng and Tongshan opened, I got used to it, and I didn't feel anything nervous. Now I finally realized it again."
Li Dong also has a similar feeling to Sun Tao.
When the Dongping store opened, he couldn't sleep all night.
Even on the first day of the opening, in order to wait for the business results, he didn't close his eyes until twelve o'clock. After knowing the result, he was so excited that he didn't fall asleep all night.
But when the store opened later, even though Fucheng set a record, Li Dong was not so excited or looking forward to it.
Sun Tao just casually talked about his feelings, and then said, "The preparations are done, there are no big mistakes. I asked them to rectify some minor problems, so there is no big problem."
Li Dong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then it depends on the results. If we can encircle those families, we can just copy them. From now on, our family will dominate the country."
Sun Tao smiled, this idea can only be said to be expected.
I really want to dominate Jiangbei. Yuanfang does not have the strength yet. After all, those supermarkets with profound heritage are still there.
It is no better than Carrefour's exclusive stores. Those have much thicker foundations in Jiangbei, and their stores are no less than those in the distance.
If you want to defeat them, you still have to work hard in the distance.
