Spend another 500 billion [Transmigration Book]

Zhuang Suan didn't dare to pretend to be profound and didn't answer Bai Youxian every time. It just so happened that today he was inspired by the quaint place where he ate at noon, so he said casually: "If you drive along the street where we eat today, you can't see it at all. signboard?"

Bai Youxian was taken aback for a moment: "Indeed, that kind of place is thought to be an antique park? It shouldn't be able to accommodate a few tables of guests in a day. They all look like small private rooms, and it doesn't seem like it can hold a large tourist group for a group meal."

"That's right, there is no lobby there, it's all small private rooms, it's not an ordinary restaurant at all. But the per capita price is not cheap at all, five or six times more expensive than the building outside the building. Ordinary group meals are mostly large, and people pay attention to small and exquisite. I think their boss must have something to do with the local government. That kind of place is for discussing things, eating and drinking tea is secondary, the key is to emphasize privacy. Later, you can ask who the boss is, I have something I want to ask him for advice.”

Zhuang Suan's original intention was to get to know the owner of the restaurant and see if it could be used as a designated reception place for his Hangzhou branch. I didn't expect that this would trigger a series of follow-up cooperation and new project opportunities. Really It's unintentionally planting willows and willows into shadows.

Now Bai Youxian is seriously thinking about the meaning of Zhuang Suan's words: "Mr. Zhuang, you mean that we use the 50 acres of land to compensate and build such a restaurant? But where can we find customers? That kind of place needs to be secluded and small. The less people know about it, the greater the privacy protection for guests.”

Zhuang Suan inadvertently used his professional ability, and casually stated the possible direction of the project: "Who said it was a restaurant? 50 acres of land, 1.0 floor area ratio, equivalent to a construction area of ​​more than 3 square meters. The highest building area of ​​these buildings is 12 meters, public buildings are higher than ordinary houses, and 12 meters can build two or three storey houses on average. More than half of the land can be used as gardens, and we design an invisible boutique hotel hidden in the park. Yes, it is boutique hotel."

In the era of the book, the high-end five-star hotels that most people understand are the kind of high-rise buildings in the city, with glass curtain walls or stone exteriors, and they are particularly prominent in the most prosperous areas of the city.Of course, there are also hotels near the scenic spot, which will be built along mountains and rivers.However, that kind of hotels and scenic spots are mostly located in the suburbs with inconvenient transportation, in the wild mountains and wild mountains. It is not realistic for tourists to stay overnight in the place, and it is not realistic at all to return on the same day, so as to ensure the source of tourists.However, during the off-season of scenic spots, the discounted rooms are often unsatisfactory.

And the wetland park

Seeing Bai Youxian's sad face, Zhuang Suan enlightened him: "The smell of wine is not afraid of deep alleys. Do you still remember the XX Hotel we stayed in abroad? That kind of hotel is a boutique hotel. That hotel was originally a residential building, but it was abandoned and taken over. It was purchased by someone and transformed into an artist hotel. Because the scale is too small, it cannot participate in the five-star hotel, but its internal quality has reached, and even the artistry is rare in the world. Famous masterpieces are hung in the corridors and guest rooms, like It's like living in a museum.

This kind of boutique hotel takes a niche route, emphasizing a certain theme and attracting a certain group of people.As for what theme our hotel will emphasize in the future and what its design will look like, this needs to be studied by a corresponding professional company. I don’t think it’s as simple as building an ordinary hotel anyway.Find a few more design units and planning units, study clearly before doing it, and don't be blind.Besides, the park will still be under construction for a while, so we don't have to be too nervous. "

Not only will the cost of planning and design be increased, but the entire boutique hotel project will require a higher cost of investment, and it will be a theme that is so small that no one lives there. This is another good project that can throw money at it!The museum has been repaired together with the hotel, and it will cost at least a few hundred million more!All Zhuang Suan was thinking about was the latter half of the paragraph, so he resisted not daring to say it directly, but the joy on his face could not be concealed.

Bai Youxian was also very confident. Although the artist hotel they stayed at that time didn't have many guests and looked deserted, the room rate was indeed quite expensive.

Maybe building a hotel can really make money?No matter how bad it is to get acquainted with Deng Mu, this person seems to have a bright career. If he is transferred to another place in Hangzhou in the future, the benefits to their Hangzhou branch may far exceed the value of a piece of land.

Although Zhuang Suan didn't say these words, Bai Youxian understood them wisely.In addition, the matter of the museum, no matter how you think about it, it is just that the investment is unlikely to be profitable.Most of the hotel's initial investment in construction and operation is difficult to recover quickly.Where should I find more money?In the future, the Hangzhou branch cannot always rely on blood transfusions from the headquarters in the capital.When we return to the imperial capital, we must convene a meeting with the directors of various departments, and everyone will brainstorm how to increase revenue and reduce expenditure.

The next few days were sunny, and Bai Youxian stayed at home at night to read the land agreement draft of Wu's land and the wetland park, etc., and accompanied Zhuang Suan to visit various scenic spots in Hangzhou during the day.

The two climbed Longjing Mountain together, went to Lingyin Temple to burn incense, strolled along the long embankment, and saw the ten scenic spots of West Lake.In the distance, I went to Qiandao Lake and Shaoxing. Before the Spring Festival holiday, there were not too many guests in these scenic spots, and the scenery had a special charm.

A few years ago, Zhuang Suan signed an agreement with the Wu family, and also signed an agreement with the Wetland Park Management Committee. Two new lands were added, and the construction of the museum was counted. In any case, it was three projects. A business trip is also a "full reward".

Zhuang Suan naturally brought a lot of souvenirs. This time, in addition to books, newspapers and albums, he also bought a lot of high-end silk and special food gift bags in Hangzhou.The euphemism is that Chinese New Year is approaching, and I will give everyone some small gifts that suit the occasion.The real big thing is to give everyone year-end bonuses, and there are also various important news to be announced about the establishment of the Hangzhou branch.

Bai Youxian thinks it's a young year, don't worry, other companies wait for the eve of the New Year's Eve to distribute their year-end bonuses, and they can't wait until the first day of the new year or the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.Zhuang Suan asked his company to calculate the year-end bonus on the day of the new year, that is, the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month, and send it to everyone's account.

Then, it is the Spring Festival holiday of the real estate company.The country has a statutory holiday of seven days for the Spring Festival. How can this be enough?We are a real estate company. In fact, the number of people who started the construction team gradually decreased when it was cold.

The workers didn't come, and we leaders have a fart when we come to work, and we don't know how to build buildings!Of course, it is also a holiday until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month before returning to work.Salary, as usual, you don’t have to do work, and you can take paid vacations!I usually work so tiring on projects and work overtime. The Spring Festival is a traditional festival of the country and even the Chinese. Everyone should enjoy the family happiness more.

When Zhuang Suan said these words, everyone in the company was very moved.

From the 23rd of the twelfth lunar month to the [-]th of the first lunar month, the real estate company has set up a nearly one-month long Spring Festival holiday.Of course, the directors of various departments also have plans. The boss won't come if he doesn't come to work in the company, but the work can't be delayed.

The major yamen gates for approval are serious and only have seven days off, and they will open for business immediately. Various receipts and approval procedures are going on as usual, and the progress of the project is advancing as usual.Therefore, the design department plans to arrange special personnel to connect different openings. It doesn't matter where the special personnel work, the most important thing is to get the approval procedures on time.

It is also a common practice for the sales department to visit customers during the Spring Festival holiday, and to give gifts to maintain relationships.As long as the customer is free in domestic customers, it is the working time of the marketing department.

People in the cost department and the engineering department also have their own plans to "work overtime".In short, they don’t work and stay on vacation until after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. They feel sorry for such a high salary, and the year-end bonus equivalent to dozens of months’ salary!A joke, didn't pay, took the company's money for nothing, don't you feel guilty?There must be a problem with not being active in work. Is it because I plan to leave my job and seek another job?

Even the media and public relations department secretly arranged to work from home.Everyone is idle during the holidays, people are afraid of being famous and pigs are afraid of being strong, the first luxury house project sold so well, and the follow-up projects are relatively smooth, there will always be jealousy, and maybe they will take risks and spread rumors.The media public relations department has already arranged a duty schedule to ensure that people are watching various information channels 24 hours a day during the Spring Festival. Once they find something that is not good for the company, they will immediately deal with it technically.

Anyway, there is a holiday policy, and there is a countermeasure for overtime.How to do what you want to do, and it is said that you will be paid three times the salary for overtime during the holiday?How can you not come to work!

Those who are married and have children don’t want to face bear children all the time. Seven days of fighting wits and courage is enough.Those who are not married, Lai is on vacation at home, how to deal with the introductions and gossip of the seven aunts and eight aunts?

Only those young couples may want to take a few more days off, but the other half’s work units rarely do not follow the statutory holidays. If you ask for annual leave, how many days can you ask for? In the end, you are still lonely and alone in the vacant room?It's better to come to the company to work overtime to show that you are active in your work, and you can earn more overtime pay.

Zhuang Suan returned to the company. A few days before the holiday, he specially found Lao Kuang. Since the luxury house business department was split off on New Year's Day, Lao Kuang has been building a team. It is said that a month has passed, and Lao Kuang should have made some progress. .

As a result, Lao Kuang complained to Zhuang Suan with a sad face: "Mr. Zhuang, those directors are determined to do the next project with you. At that time, they didn't know about the acquisition of land in Hangzhou, and they couldn't think about it. Now there are three new projects in Hangzhou, none of which are luxury houses, and they even look down on me."

When Zhuang Suan heard it, he was puzzled: "Don't those directors know how to build a luxury house with you, and make a steady profit without losing money? If you follow my current salary system and add a little more money, can they not follow you? The luxury house business Is there no money in the department account?"

"Those directors don't want to follow me, and neither do I.

"Let me persuade the other directors." Zhuang Suan reassured him.However, since Lao Kuang was allowed to go out independently, Zhuang Suan couldn't do all the recruiting. Anyway, he would hand over all the money he made to the group, and let the group's human resources department check the new recruits.For the other directors, those who are capable should be persuaded to go to the luxury house business department.It's enough for him to keep a few young and fresh graduates who are easy to fool.

After persuading Lao Kuang for a few words, Zhuang Suan called several other directors to have a small meeting. Firstly, he asked them who wanted to go to Hangzhou to be the head of the branch, and secondly, he asked why they were willing to stay and follow him. he.

In case someone was wrong and thought that following him would make more money, he quickly persuaded him.After all, the project he will be doing in the future is a money-losing project that the sales department does not even need. It has been delayed for many years, and it only costs money but does not make money. Sooner or later, the salary will not be paid.Of course, if these people have no ambitions and don't want to leave, he can raise them for a few years first.But the problem is that these people obviously didn't look like they could do things when they were recruited. How could they work on projects together and become so profitable?

What if I follow him to do the next project, and Shengsheng turns a profit again?It is necessary to guard against the passing of time, and it is only one who can be persuaded to leave!

Zhuang Suan first introduced the project situation in Hangzhou to several directors, especially emphasizing that there is no suitable residential land in Hangzhou at present, so the luxury housing business department is temporarily useless.

However, to develop the Yangtze River Delta market, there are many problems of unfamiliarity, and first of all, it requires a lot of investment. It is normal that you will not be able to make money in the short term.Zhuang Suan promised not to use revenue to evaluate performance, anyone can go, even the current vice president of the department or even just graduated a few years ago, anyone who has this idea can come to talk to him.

The directors are all thinking about whether they want to go to the next level.Even people like Lao Kuang who are so sophisticated and smooth, only talkative and have no real skills can play a leading role in supporting the luxury house business department. Why can't they go to Hangzhou to give it a try with serious technical backgrounds, high education and well-connected people?

"I, I'll go!" Guo Kebei was the first to express his opinion when everyone was still hesitating to weigh the pros and cons.

Everyone was in an uproar.

Even Zhuang Suan asked a little strangely: "Sister Guo, I remember that you and your husband are both from the city of the imperial capital, and the whole family and most of the relatives live in the imperial capital, right?"

Guo Kebei smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's true that our family is from the Imperial City. But my son was admitted to Z University in Hangzhou last year, but he only returned to the Imperial Capital once a semester. I really miss him."

"From the imperial capital to Hangzhou, the plane is very convenient. How about granting you a few days of family leave every month to visit your son in Hangzhou, and the company will reimburse you the travel expenses?" Zhuang Suan is very reasonable and willing to continue to increase labor costs and improve employee benefits. .

However, Guo Kebei didn't want to take advantage of the company for nothing and make other colleagues laugh at her. She said confidently: "Mr. Zhuang, are you embarrassing me by saying that? I really want to open up Hangzhou for the company. The market in the city and even the Yangtze River Delta, and I think I have the ability."

The engineering director questioned: "Mr. Guo, you are engaged in cost work. It seems that being a project manager is not comprehensive enough. Is it too reluctant to be the person in charge of a branch company and a lesbian?"

Guo Kebei said neither humble nor overbearing: "In these years, I left after work every day and did not work overtime on weekends for the sake of learning. Last year I passed the internationally recognized project manager qualification certificate, and I also took courses in company management, including legal affairs and finance. .Maybe the design ability and engineering control are not as good as professionals, but I have experienced these projects over the years, and I still understand a little bit.”

Zhuang Suan had no choice but to say: "Well, how much is the fee for your registration and exams? The company will reimburse you. It's okay if you don't have a receipt. I will personally pay to support your studies. I also encourage everyone to learn from you if you have nothing to do! Those who enroll in the class to study and pass the grade test will be reimbursed by the company!"

Why didn't he think of encouraging employees to learn and enrolling them in all kinds of expensive training courses to consume costs?Still the pattern Tucson is broken.

The director of human resources department said: "Sister Guo, you are a lesbian after all, you can't just focus on work and family, otherwise conflicts will easily arise."

"Oh, how should I put it. My husband's company is in a downturn. He said that he will resign after the next year, and he will fully support my work as a house husband. Wherever I go, he will do the logistics with me. If I go to Hangzhou , Multi-purpose. Don’t worry, the company will be my home in the future, and my husband will take care of my children and my life. I will go all out to focus on my career. Guaranteed to be able to start the machine 24 hours a day, whether it’s holidays or weekends As long as there is something in the company, I will come to my post immediately to deal with it. Please believe me, and ask Mr. Zhuang to give me this opportunity so that I can apply what I have learned."

It can be seen from the cost department's fierce price reduction on suppliers and its strong attitude towards general construction contractors that Guo Kebei is definitely a master.In addition, the engineering director has seen Guo Kebei's control over the dinner, and he can't talk about things with various parties without drinking.No matter running a business or going to a meeting, Mr. Guo from the cost department is always a heroine.Drinking starts at a catty, and you can directly drink more than 50 degrees of liquor with a wine measuring device. You can pay the bill soberly after a round of toasts without changing your face.This kind of female hero can't accept it.

Zhou Fan wanted to try it by herself at first, but to be honest, her engineering practice is much less than that of Mr. Guo. At most, she is a professional who understands design, and she hasn't figured out other things very rough.Liquor is not allowed at the banquet, red wine is poured after three glasses, and I don't like dealing with officials.In the imperial capital, he was surrounded by his father, and with the support of various resources, he could still accomplish some practical things. If he went to Hangzhou, where he was not familiar, he might not be able to take the lead.

The directors of several other departments also saw the gap between themselves and Mr. Guo at this time, and talked about her excellence.

Only Zhuang Suan was terrified when he heard it, and felt that since Guo Kebei didn't want to go to the luxury house business department, such a capable person couldn't stay under him, so he should "assign" him to Hangzhou to see the land first.Those few pieces are not houses, no matter how capable Mr. Guo is, he can at most spend less money, or spend money more slowly, can he still make money?It's hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. Since she offered it on her own initiative, how could he not support it?

"Okay, it's up to you. Then please take a billion yuan to go. Based in Hangzhou and operating the Yangtze River Delta, you need money from the beginning." This is the way Zhuang Suan can think of, and half of the money in the account will be given to Guo Ke Bei, let her take it away.He gave Lao Kuang one billion before, but now he can't favor one over the other.

Guo Kebei didn't dare to disrespect Mr. Zhuang immediately, and besides, with so many colleagues watching, if she patted her chest and said that she didn't need to bring a cent and went to expand the territory, how much pressure would it put on other colleagues?She should be more tactful and low-key: "Mr. Zhuang, I can't just say how much initial capital is needed to open the Hangzhou branch. How about this, after I go to Hangzhou to do some research, I will list a detailed capital budget table, please All fraternal departments will check together, and you will make a decision. Don’t rush to allocate money.”

Think about it

After the directors left the meeting, Zhuang Suan asked Bai Youxian to have a chat with Guo Kebei alone.He was afraid that Guo Kebei would not dare to ask for more money in front of so many people.The luxury house business department can take one billion yuan away, and it will be self-sufficient in the future. This is a certain basis for the luxury house itself to sell well.The Hangzhou branch is poor and empty, except for three pieces of land that need to be invested, how can there be any possibility of profit?

Bai Youxian also wondered, how did Guo Kebei gain the confidence to go to Hangzhou to chew on those hard bones?Even if Zhuang Suan didn't tell him specifically, Bai Youxian would go to ask for advice.

Zhuang Suan didn't ask in person, but separated him, and had his own considerations.In case Guo Kebei didn’t know what to do, he ran to ask people, put too much pressure on him, don’t let Guo Kebei lose his pick, and stay in the imperial capital to display such a strong talent, how can he complete the big plan of losing money? ?

Let Bai Youxian explore the situation, and hope that Guo Kebei can seize the opportunity and ask for more initial investment in the company in time.
