1987: Sleepless Tonight

It is precisely because we know the actual situation that Yan Mingchang said later: If you have any problems with taking cards, report to him directly.

Lu Haocai was very surprised.

To be able to make such a guarantee, I really want to do something.

"Mayor Yan, thank you for your support. I will not let down the expectations of the leaders. I will definitely make some achievements for KFC's first branch in Jiangcheng. I can't guarantee it on the opening day, but on the day of the Chinese New Year, other The turnover will definitely be higher than that of KFC’s first branch in China, which means that its turnover on that day will exceed 1 yuan." said Lu Hao.

Yan Mingchang has made such a statement and supported it. He cannot not give any accurate guarantee. He must also show his sincerity to support the leaders and departments that Jiangcheng City focuses on supporting business and taking care of it.

Make their political achievements more prominent, make their confidence stronger, and make their words at the meeting more weighty.

Because of Lu Hao and Yan Mingchang's few words, very sincere answers, and energetic thoughts, the atmosphere in the entire tea room became very lively.

There is no such thing as a superficial meeting, but a meeting that really wants to do something.

If you support me, I will support you in return!

Although he is a little selfish, he also wants to make Jiangcheng better!

Hearing Lu Hao's guarantee, Yan Mingchang and others were also very happy. After all, they were very supportive of KFC's arrival in Jiangcheng. If a satisfactory result was not obtained in the end, they would definitely be attacked. excuses to be slandered by those who hold different opinions from them.

"A turnover of 8 yuan a day is too high. Will there be a lot of pressure? Even if we mobilize people we know and people in various units to spend money, it will be very difficult. After all, the big guys have It is indeed quite nervous, KFC’s consumption is not cheap, and the sales do not have to exceed KFC’s first store. If there is a comparable store, it is very impressive,” said Yan Mingchang.

Say hello to employees of subordinate companies, and also to various brother units, and even to some public institutions, such as schools, etc., and ask everyone to support a certain thing. This is something that government agencies often do. thing.

Mobilize the units directly under you and support the people with relevant interests, such as making donations, or watching a certain movie. This is how agencies and units have always operated.

So Yan Mingchang thought that Lu Hao was so confident that he might want to mobilize his subordinates to take care of KFC's business on the New Year's Day.

However, although the number of employees under Lu Hao is small, it is still limited. It is still very difficult to achieve sales of 8 yuan. Even with a little help, publicity, and encouragement from his side, the employees of the various units under the engine control unit It is also very difficult to provide personnel to support.

Because the consumption of KFC is indeed not low, and after all, KFC is still run by Lu Hao. The government departments only provide support and support from the side, and it is difficult to enforce it.

He was afraid that Lu Hao would not understand this, so he explained the situation to Lu Hao in advance.

"KFC is indeed not cheap, but Jiangcheng has a large population of nearly 700 million. Even if one person only contributes 2 cents, the sales can reach 14 yuan." Lu Hao said, "And eating at KFC is also I don’t want you to eat it often, I just want you to have a taste of it and see what’s different between what foreigners eat and what we eat.”

"It's similar to the Chinese New Year. On the New Year's Day, the meals at home will be very rich, including fish and meat. This happens only once a year. As long as everyone thinks of going to KFC to celebrate the New Year, even if they go there once a year, The sales amount is more than 8 yuan. As long as it stimulates the curiosity in the hearts of the citizens, lets them know about the KFC brand, knows that KFC has come to our country and to Jiangcheng, and stimulates their consumption ideas, we can achieve the goal."

"So, the most important thing is actually publicity. We have to let the citizens know that there is such a thing and let the citizens recognize it. After a year of hard work, at this time, we have to let the children at home eat something good and something different. To satisfy your craving, you can also reward yourself and follow suit to satisfy your craving."

“What’s on the table doesn’t have to be croquettes, lotus root sandwich, dumplings, it can also be KFC.”

"Exceeding the daily sales of KFC's first branch in China is something that must be done, because only in this way can this branch in Jiangcheng cause a sensation and get the attention of everyone, so that everyone pays attention KFC will also pay attention to Jiangcheng when it opens its second branch. For other investors at home and abroad, Jiangcheng will become dazzling and appear on the same level as cities in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou."

"As the city's reputation has improved, some investors who originally didn't know about Jiangcheng or had little confidence in Jiangcheng will enthusiastically invest in Jiangcheng. This is also very meaningful for the overall business environment of Jiangcheng."

"Many people are afraid to invest. In fact, it's not that they don't have money, but that they haven't found a suitable investment environment. At this time, we need the power of a role model to set an example and lead other hesitant people to join."

People's living standards are not high, but treating KFC as a festive event like eating big fish and meat during the Chinese New Year can greatly increase KFC's sales!

"Boss Lu is really broad-minded. When others are doing business, he would like to have as few people as possible with him, so that he can monopolize the business. But Boss Lu is thinking about attracting other investors to Jiangcheng. When the time comes, he will come to Jiangcheng. The investors may include people from all walks of life, catering, retail, and clothing. Isn't Boss Lu afraid that his business will be affected?" Yan Mingchang was a little curious.

Whether in the conference room where he was negotiating and signing a contract with KFC or in private, Lu Hao attached great importance to the overall business environment. He wanted to scale up his business and make achievements in the same industry. Don't even look down on second place, but want to be first.

Ambitious!

Moreover, judging from Lu Hao's career path, he has always done this. For example, when Wanjia Department Store opened, its sales were higher than that of Jiangcheng Mall.

This ambition is not a bad thing. It can be understood that it is for the sake of his own business and to make more money. Moreover, before Lu Hao started the department store business, Jiangcheng already had many other shopping malls and department stores, so he had to make a decision. Only by achieving these results can we ensure competitiveness and gain something.
