After rebirth, I want to destroy my original family

After seeing off the shareholders and having dinner with the brand partners, the afternoon was half over.

After Zhou Shirong saw off the last guest, the smile on his face gradually faded, leaving only a hint of seriousness. He then left the courtyard, got into a black Mercedes-Benz, and left Guozijian Street.

Since taking over Zhou's company, he has heard a lot of rumors around him, but he didn't take them seriously.

But today, the words coming out of the shareholder's mouth really put a lot of pressure on him.

He didn't expect that Gu Ming would arrange people to ask those questions at the press conference, putting all the pressure directly on him and Duan Ying, tying family conflicts and company development together.

Mrs. Gu...

Zhou Shirong had to admit that his daughter's status was indeed important enough to shake the minds of the company's shareholders.

Especially after group buying entered the payment market and strongly shook Alibaba's dominant position, for people in the industry, Gu Ming's idea is equivalent to the future trend to a certain extent.

If he directly states that he is not optimistic about a certain company, it is not impossible to cause the stock price to fall.

So the question asked by the reporter today was not to get an answer, but to make a threat.

Zhou Shirong felt that his blood pressure was very high and he was extremely anxious.

Joy City was Zhou's signature brand for entering the commercial real estate industry. The first Joy City was the template for thousands of Joy Cities to come. But such a scene suddenly happened on the opening day. No matter how good his psychological quality was, he couldn't remain calm.

In his view, family matters are family matters and should not be involved in business.

After a long time, Zhou Shirong returned to the hotel where he was staying. He pushed the door open and saw Duan Ying sitting in front of the window, while Andy was still sleeping soundly.

Duan Ying's expression was also gloomy, and the knuckles of her fingers were clenched so hard that she didn't even notice that he had entered.

"Not awake yet?"

"Well, he was exhausted after a day's journey from Shanghai to Beijing. He was even talking in his sleep just now, shouting that he missed you."

Zhou Shirong leaned over and glanced at his son: "It's only 1 o'clock now. I'll rest for two hours. Wake me up at 3 o'clock. I have a dinner party in the evening."

Duan Ying looked at Zhou Shirong and said, "Mr. Chen, does this put pressure on you?"

"Businessmen value profits, and Joy City has invested so much. It's normal for them to be worried."

"Or I won't show up in the future. Zhou's can't compete with group buying now. People have to bow their heads under the eaves. After all, they are all family. What's the big deal if the father-in-law and mother-in-law bow to their son-in-law?"

Zhou Shirong took off his suit and threw it on the bedside: "Don't think too much. As long as the Joy City brand is established, the doubts will soon disappear. There is no point in talking nonsense. It is better to see the real stuff."

Duan Ying stood up and poured him a glass of water: "Drink some water before going to sleep."

"Ah."

"Are you so confident in Joy City?"

"Before Joy City started construction, we conducted a month-long analysis of Baihua Valley. We kept a complete record of customer flow and store types, with data accurate to every hour. We then focused on discussing how to learn from each other's strengths and overcome each other's weaknesses. We copied the homework and corrected the mistakes in the original version. Guess how many points I will get?"

Zhou Shirong stared at the ceiling and said, "Besides, we have been preheating for a whole month, and all preparations are complete."

Duan Ying nodded, feeling a little more at ease inside.

Seriously, if the Joy City project fails, everyone will think of the questions that reporter asked at the press conference.

Then, whether it is partners, shareholders or company executives, they will all think that she was the one who destroyed Zhou's transformation. In that situation, it will be uncertain whether she can continue to work as Mrs. Zhou.

Duan Ying still remembers the time after Lin Xian's death when she tried every possible means to get close to Zhou Shirong and humbly tried to please the people around her.

At that time, she had just moved into the Zhou family, and even the nanny at home deliberately looked at her in the eye.

Some people said that she was not Mrs. Zhou, but she just endured it by force.

After working hard for so long, she finally became a rich lady with unlimited fame. How could she be ruined?

At the same time, preparations for the opening are underway in Joy City.

For example, the stage construction of the exhibition hall, the placement of peripheral signboards, the posting of promotional posters, and various pre-opening process confirmations have all entered the final stage.

Throughout the mall, every store has started trial operations and is making final adjustments.

During this process, the managers in the mall have not stopped discussing the noon press conference.

"Do you think the group-sharing supply chain will really refuse to cooperate with our catering merchants in Joy City?"

"I don't know, but it is said that Gu Ming loves his wife very much, otherwise our Mrs. Zhou wouldn't be so embarrassed today."

"This family feud is just like a TV drama."

"If this were a TV show, I would call Gu Ming a real man, but this is reality. I'm afraid he has become a living devil. It's not easy to find a job these days. If this mall doesn't work out, our company will definitely have to lay off employees again."

"The leader did something wrong and us low-level minions were harmed. This is nothing to worry about."

"Hey, hey, don't be so pessimistic. How can you give up before the battle is even started?"

Three mall managers were chatting as they walked toward the door, intending to check out the stage construction. As a result, they saw a row of trucks driving towards the opposite side, like a long yellow dragon.

The trucks have painted logos on the cabins with the name and logo of the group buying supply chain.

The three of them were stunned for a moment, watching the truck driving away quickly under the setting sun, and immediately took a taxi to follow it, all the way to the vicinity of Baihua Valley Mall, where they saw the car driving in from behind.

1234……56……1共2十5辆！

The construction and operation of Joy City were all based on the Wanzhong Mall. Especially in the early stages of planning, people worked shifts to guard Wanzhong almost every day, so they were very clear about Wanzhong's supply frequency and scale.

But in the past two years, they have never seen such a big scene.

The three people looked at each other and thought, Oh no, there is something going on in Baihua Valley!

This is normal. Joy City is obviously here to compete with Baihua Valley for business. It is impossible for them to sit still when they open their business.

Especially the incident that happened at today's press conference made everyone feel a little wary. When they saw the large-scale group truck entering the crowd, they immediately panicked.

The news spread quickly, and the operations manager and event manager immediately went to the hotel and woke up Zhou Shirong who was still resting.

"Mr. Feng, 2 trucks from the group buying supply chain suddenly drove into Wanzhong Mall today."

"what?"

"Joy City will officially open tomorrow. If he makes such a big move at this time, I'm afraid they are going to target us."

Zhou Shirong immediately changed his clothes and called an emergency meeting of the company's top management to deal with this emergency.

To be honest, the quality of Joy City's early investment promotion was indeed not high, and there were almost no main brands that attracted traffic, because the strategic brands of the northern business group did not cooperate with them, and when other big brands faced a new mall brand, their first choice was to wait and see.

To put it simply, you need to prove that you have a strong customer flow before we will be willing to open a store there.

In order to make up for this shortcoming, Zhou used his overseas connections to attract several international brands to fill the storefront, and then paid out of his own pocket to join some brand stores.

However, the subsequent development of the mall still needs to attract more well-known brands.

But if you are attacked on the first day of opening and the business fails to hold up, the subsequent situation will become increasingly difficult.

Therefore, during a two-hour meeting, Zhou Shirong decided to increase subsidies, temporarily adjusted the preferential prices of several of his own stores, and raised the prize level of the door-to-door lottery by one level.

The workload suddenly increased, and Zhou's several teams started to work again, without any sleep for a whole night.

Until the next morning, when the morning light fell on Kyoto, colorful balloons took off in front of the City of Joy, the red carpet was in place, the lion dance team opened the show, and six performance groups took to the stage one after another.

The number of onlookers began to increase continuously, and the number increased rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, especially the lottery area at the front desk, which was filled with nearby residents.

A huge flow of people rushed into the mall in an instant, and it was a huge crowd. As time went by, the entire mall was gradually filled up.

Standing on the 5th floor and looking down, you can almost see circles of people, some with black hair, some with white hair, some with half black and half white hair, some with bald hair, some with half bald hair, all kinds of people.

"There are too many people at the South Gate. The people at the service desk hurriedly provide guidance. I asked you to memorize the shopping guide map before, so just think of yourself as a tour guide."

"Don't let the guests who have won the lottery wait at the door to redeem their prizes. Tell them to go to the 2th floor at 4 noon to redeem their prizes. Don't affect other guests coming in!"

"Lao Wang, please go to the parking lot quickly. The entrance over there is blocked. Some car owners can't turn their cars around and are blocking the passage."

"Oh my god, why are there so many old ladies? Lao Zhang, quickly ask someone to go to the elevator area on the first floor and keep an eye on them. Make sure nothing unexpected happens!"

On the first day of opening, Joy City was so popular that it was beyond imagination. The actual number of people entering the mall far exceeded the expected number of people, and the mall's managers were completely overwhelmed.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Shirong's heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down a little.

An ordinary weekend could attract so many visitors, which is really a good start for Joy City.

He asked someone to pull the photographer to his position, and took a few photos of the bustling scene below, intending to keep them as the inside pages of the investment brochure later.

He did not respond or explain, but proved himself to the shareholders with his strength. This was the first step he took.

The most important thing is that the Hundred Flowers Valley next door seems to be holding an event, but the fact that Joy City can welcome such a large number of visitors while they are holding the event is itself a small victory.

In two years, the rumors about Qin Jingqiu came from the pressure of his son-in-law. Thinking of this, Zhou Shirong couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief.
