Hong Kong Movies: You Hongxingzi, what the hell is the charity king?

Chapter 410 "409" High-end business war: Opening your business will cause you traffic jam!

Oriental Daily Press, Editorial Department.

At this point, a group of editors were already excited.

"Tomorrow's headlines are booked in advance!"

"Guan Zu vs. Boss Li, the Nth confrontation!"

Eat big melon!
I didn't expect that Guan Zu and Boss Li were so insidious. The huge discount of 1 million or 2 million yuan had never been leaked before.

And it suddenly broke out today.

And what a coincidence, they bumped into each other!

what is this?
A collision of fate!
A fateful showdown!
Guan Zu and Boss Li will definitely decide the winner!
This sense of fate completely aroused the gossip of all the spectators.

at this time,

The editor-in-chief's inspiration continues to flow.

With hands behind his back, he paced back and forth!
"Tomorrow's newspaper headlines, drafted!"

"The front page photo, in color, has Mr. Li on the left and Mr. Guan on the right."

Forked layout!

Then there will be a 'battle of kings, peak showdown'.

One blue and one red.

(Pictured)
"Title: Think about it:"

"Is it "The Peak Showdown between Guan and Li: Will the old win, or will the new generation defeat the old?", or "Boss Li is old, can he still make a living?", or "The last blow of Guan Zu, will Boss Li survive, or will the empire collapse?", or "..."

The editor-in-chief is very talented and he thought of several at once.

The title is sensational!

When everyone heard this, they all praised the editor-in-chief for his wit!

"That's it!"

This scene was reported in all major newspapers, and they all smelled gunpowder.

This time, it will definitely be the final battle between Guan Zu and Boss Li!
Guan Zu won and Boss Li fell!

Boss Li won, and the retail empire will be divided equally from now on!
Eat melon! Eat melon!
but,

After analyzing Guan Zu and Boss Li's money-spending strategies, editors from all major newspapers agreed that Boss Li had lost again!
Look at Boss Li’s strategy: 1 million Hong Kong dollars, probably half of it is water!
(Boss Li vomited blood: Why don’t any of you believe me!)
Look at Guan Zu’s strategy: no tricks, just spend 2 million in cash directly!

Sit down!

……

……

The Cheung Kong Building.

Qu Yinzhi Company, conference room, an oversized oval conference table is placed in the center of the room.

The atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed as if the air had frozen.

Boss Li sat at the head seat at the conference table, his brows furrowed into the shape of the Chinese character "川".

Many senior executives of Qu Yinzhi were all thinking "MMP" in their hearts, what is Guan Zu doing? He has put them in such a passive position!

"Everyone, please keep silent. What should we, Qu Yinzhi, do?!"

Boss Li slammed the table and spoke loudly.

"Marketing department first..."

The head of the marketing department gritted his teeth, cleared his throat, and spoke first: "Boss, I don't think we can blindly follow the trend. The preferential plan we formulated before has been prepared for such a long time and is already very perfect. If we suddenly change it now, it will easily mess up the entire plan."

The financial director also agreed: "Yes, boss. We have invested a lot of effort in this 1 million preferential plan. If we change it rashly, there are only more than 3 days left. Will it be too late?"

The Ministry of Commerce nodded: "Yes, Boss, changing your strategy at the last minute is a big taboo."

In fact, these people are not opposed to cash red envelopes, but they have already misappropriated part of the 2000 million operating funds and divided it privately.

If they want to give out cash red envelopes, don't they have to give back what they have moved out?
Also, they have already reached cooperation agreements with the manufacturers of those products, and the manufacturers will give us certain rebates.

If it is changed to cash red envelopes, how can I get kickbacks?
Another huge loss.

In short, Guan Zu gave cash bonuses because the company was new and corruption was not serious. Unlike us, who embezzled money... ahem... sorry to make you laugh.

After listening to these words, Boss Li's originally anxious mentality gradually calmed down.

"What you said makes sense, but Guan Zu's 2 million cash bonus has already attracted the attention of the citizens. If we don't change, I guess few people will come to our Kangjia Supermarket on the opening day."

The head of the Human Resources Department said: "Boss, even if we want to change it, it's too late. We need to re-arrange the cash red envelopes, contact the bank, prepare the red envelopes, and arrange the distribution process. These things cannot be done in three or four days."

The head of the operations department said: "Besides, the original process has already been set. If it is changed now, I am afraid that the staff below will be in chaos."

In fact, he and other executives were on the same page and did not want Boss Li to change the plan for fear that it would affect their respective interests.

Boss Li leaned back in his chair and watched the executives' dissuasion.

He realized that this group of people must have taken kickbacks.

Then don't want to spit out the benefits.

Of course he was extremely angry. At this critical moment for Qu Yinzhi's life and death, you all acted like rats.

He really wanted to fire all these people.

But he still held back. These people could not be fired now, otherwise the opening of the supermarket would not be able to proceed.

Another problem is that firing senior executives is a taboo for listed companies, which can easily cause turmoil and crash Qu Yinzhi's stock.

Let's take it step by step.

Boss Li suppressed his anger.

Boss Li said: "How about this, add another 2 million Hong Kong dollars in cash bonus!"

Originally, he wanted to add 1 million to the red envelope, but he gritted his teeth and simply gave out 2 million Hong Kong dollars, a total of 3 million, which is 1 million more than Guan Zu!

This is Qu Yinzhi's last battle.

If they lose, the entire Qu Yinzhi will lose the supermarket.

By then, the loss will be more than 2 million!
When everyone listens,
what?
Come again?

I am so embarrassed about this.

"Boss, add another 2 million in cash bonus, I think this is okay."

"Even if time is tight, it doesn't matter if we work harder!"

"Guan Zu achieved 2 million, so we must also achieve 2 million, and be 1 million more than him!"

"support!"

Everyone supports it.

Boss Li nodded: "Let's do it!"

"However, what you just said is also correct. You are all busy with the previous 2 million project, so you should form another temporary project team to handle the million cash bonus project."

Executives: “???”

No!
Leave it to us!
We can handle it!
The executive who just said "time is tight" now wanted to slap himself in the face.

Make you talk bad!

However, there are also some conscientious executives among the executives: "Boss, should we follow the red envelope rules of Guan Zu? If the amount is over 50 Hong Kong dollars, we will randomly draw the prize? If they only bought 50 Hong Kong dollars of goods and then took 100 Hong Kong dollars from us, wouldn't we lose more?"

Boss Li looked determined: "It's already this time, we can't be stingy anymore, just go ahead and smoke it!"

Boss Li said to the head of the marketing department: "Contact TVB immediately. I want to announce this news to the whole of Hong Kong at 12 noon. Also contact those newspapers and ask them to give me the headline position tomorrow and broadcast this news!"

Head of Marketing Department: “Yes!!”

……

……

At 12 noon, TVB news starts broadcasting on time.

"Dear audience friends, now I would like to interrupt you with a piece of great news!"

The host's voice was loud and powerful, and his emotions were passionate.

good news?

Citizens watching TVB news all attracted attention.

"Just now, we received accurate information that the Quyin Paper Company under the Yangtze River Group will hold an unprecedented cash giveaway event on top of the 100 million yuan given away earlier, in order to give back to the general public!"

Screen switching,

The interior of Kangjia Supermarket is shown to be huge, although not as big as the 15 square feet of the steel plant, but still looks extremely large. The design is also copied from the five-star supermarket in the central and western districts, which is high-end, bright and exquisite.

And it’s also joyous!
"In order to bring more benefits to everyone, Boss Li decided to add another 2 million Hong Kong dollars to distribute to consumers in the form of cash red envelopes!"

"During the opening period of Kangjia Supermarket, as long as you come to shop and spend more than 50 Hong Kong dollars, you will have the opportunity to draw a cash red envelope!"

"Double big discount, Kangjia Supermarket celebrates the Spring Festival with you!"

"Kangjia Supermarket has shown its full sincerity at this time. This is undoubtedly a shopping feast for our citizens!"

"Officially opening on January 1, citizens are cordially invited to Kangjia Supermarket!"

As TVB news was broadcast, people in the streets and alleys of Hong Kong gasped.

Whether in tea restaurants on the streets or offices in office buildings, people were discussing the additional 2 million yuan from Boss Li in shock.

"Hiss, hiss, hiss~~Add 2 million!"

"Boss Li is anxious!"

"Of course he is anxious. If this supermarket is taken down, his retail empire will be gone."

“How cruel!”

"For us, this is a good opportunity to get the wool from both sides. Let's get all the wool out first!"

"Yes, although I support Mr. Guan, I can't let go of this kind of discount. I will support Mr. Guan after I have taken all the red envelopes from Boss Li."

Currently, Kwan Cho’s support rate in Yau Tsim Mong is 35%.

In addition, the supermarket may also radiate to Kowloon City, where the support rate is 50%.

In other words, a large part of them are neutral, and the majority of the rest support Guan Zu.

"That's right, first go get all the red envelopes from Boss Li, and then go support Mr. Guan!"

"I just need to buy something worth 50 Hong Kong dollars... hehehe~~~"

If you are a resident of Causeway Bay, you must be familiar with this scene - I got eggs and tissues, I am tough!
……

The news that Boss Li added 2 million yuan not only sparked heated discussions among citizens, but also caused a huge stir in the financial market.

The stock market opens in the afternoon.
Investors have focused their attention on the stocks of Qu Yinzhi Company.

In early trading, Qu Yinzhi's stock was in a slump with a drop of 11%.

However, when the news of Kangjia Supermarket's heavy counterattack came, the situation returned to normal.

In the trading hall, many retail investors were discussing.

"Qu Yinzhi is going to fight back!"

A senior stock investor shouted excitedly,

"I thought I was going to fail this time, but I didn't expect this to happen. It seems that this stock can still be saved!"

"3 million versus 2 million, this time Qu Yinzhi has a great chance of winning!"

Many retail investors have begun to look favorably upon Qu Yinzhi.

The trading volume of Qu Yinzhi's stocks increased sharply, and buy orders poured in like a tide.

The stock price continued to soar, rebounding from -11% to -4% by the time the stock market closed.

At the same time, in his office in the Cheung Kong Group Building, Boss Li was also closely following the stock market trends.

This stock market reflects the citizens' confidence in Kangjia Supermarket.

Looking at the stock price rising continuously on the screen, Boss Li's tense face finally showed a relieved smile.

"It seems like this was the right move."

“Citizens’ support for supermarkets has increased!”

However, Boss Li is not blindly confident.

He said to his secretary: "Although the stock price has rebounded now, we can't let our guard down. Five Star Supermarket will definitely not sit idly by. They may also be planning their next counterattack."

"Moreover, after our increased investment this time, the customer flow on the opening day will definitely increase significantly. Our preparations must be foolproof, otherwise it will easily lead to chaos and affect the company's reputation."

The secretary nodded: "Okay, Boss. I will notify all departments to prepare for the final opening rehearsal. In addition, I will have people pay close attention to the movements of Five Star Supermarket. If they make any moves, we must respond immediately."

Boss Li nodded: "Very good!"

The secretary hesitated for a moment: "Boss, there is another very troublesome matter now..."

Boss Li frowned: "What's the matter?"

Secretary: "Parking. When the Five Star Supermarket in Central and Western District opened, more than 500 parking attendants were used. We had originally negotiated with several associations in Yau Tsim Mong to ask them for parking attendants...but..."

Boss Li: “But what?”

Secretary: "There is a question. All the associations in Yau Tsim Mong have to listen to Guan Zu. Will these parking attendants cause trouble? What if..."

Boss Li: “???!!”

After 20 minutes of contemplation, Boss Li made the decision:

"Hire parking attendants as soon as possible and pay them enough!"

"In the first 10 days of the opening, let our employees from the Changjiang Group take over first!"

As an employee, what's wrong with suffering a little?
Be dedicated!

……

……

Five Star Group.

Guan Zu's Office,
Guan Zuzheng and Tan Meili were drinking tea.

Tan Meili: "Brother Zu, Boss Li has dum (spent) another 2 million yuan. He is really bold."

Guan Zu took a sip of tea slowly and said, "Yes, Boss Li is very courageous. Now we are in a passive position."

Tan Meili: "What should I do? Should I continue to follow?"

Guan Zu: "No need to follow. It's useless to follow. Boss Li spent 2 million yuan, and the bonus is 1200 million red envelopes. Even if 100 million red envelopes are consumed a day, it will take at least 12 days to consume them all."

Tan Meili thought about it and agreed.

Next, it’s no longer a question of how much money to spend.

It’s all about service, supply strength, and one problem – parking!
Harbour City is okay, with a huge parking system and a large number of parking attendants under Guan Zu.

And what about Boss Li’s Kangjia Supermarket?

The city center and old town of Yau Tsim Mong...

Tsk tsk, most of the roads there are two lanes. If the parking attendant is not good enough, Boss Li will be doomed.

More importantly, does Boss Li have a parking attendant?
This is a very professional profession!
Boss Li is now looking for parking attendants from various community groups in Yau Tsim Mong.

I'm sorry, but which society in Yau Tsim Mong dares to defy the will of me, Guan Zu?

What everyone thinks of as a business war: intrigue and deception, various high-tech means of stealing business secrets, as exciting as the plot in a 007 movie...

Real business war: pouring boiling water on the money tree, pulling out the network cable, turning off the power switch...

Guan Zu and Tan Meili looked at each other.

"Hey hey hey~~~"

"Hehehe~~~"

Guan Zu soon regained his seriousness: "Now we have a problem with Five Star Supermarket: we subsidized the Five Star Supermarket in Harbour City with a red envelope of 2 million, but the Five Star Supermarket in Central and Western Ring Road did not receive any subsidy. This is a bit unfair to our neighbors. Let's just subsidize million."

Tan Meili: “Ah?”

Guan Zu: "No need to promote it, just think of it as a surprise for the Central and Western Ring Five Star Supermarket."

Tan Meili: "Okay, okay!"

……

Over the next two days,

The publicity for Kangjia Supermarket and Five Star Supermarket has entered a white-hot stage.

Citizens all over Hong Kong are watching the show.

Guan Zu vs. Boss Li, the competition between the two supermarkets has increasingly become a topic of discussion among citizens.

Guan Zu vs Boss Li,

Who has the last laugh in the end?
In this highly anticipated...

January 1th, officially arrived.
