Financial freedom starts with smiling at life

Chapter 115 How Much Cash Does Mr. Jiang Have?
After the Elegance and Mulsanne were discontinued, Bentley could no longer catch up with Rolls-Royce in the luxury executive sedan market.

The current Mercedes-Benz is often compared with the Maybach S.

In terms of brand power, luxury and business presentation, the Mercedes-Benz beats the Maybach S.

Of course, it cannot be compared with the Maybach Pullman S and is not in the same class.

As for luxury executive sedans such as the S680, in the eyes of bosses, it is a low-key and comfortable commuting tool.

If you need high-end business, you have to choose Mercedes-Benz.

However, Bentley has an obvious shortcoming. As a British-made car, it focuses on aristocratic temperament and luxury, and is slightly lacking in comfort.

The Flying Spur is much stiffer to sit in than the Maybach S680.

Of course, this is a comparison between luxury cars. If it is compared with ordinary cars, the comfort of the Mercedes-Benz is already a ceiling that ordinary people can hardly reach.

But for Jiangbei City, it is definitely not satisfactory.

This is also the reason why he wants to seek training from Maysari.

We need both business appearance and comfortable travel.

Manager Zhu asked him if he needed to tune the power system and upgrade it to 6.0T or V12 power?
Jiang Beicheng looked at Shen Jun. This car was mainly driven by Shen Jun, the personal assistant. Bentley itself had racing genes and the power was too strong, so it was not suitable for a lady to drive.

In addition, changes to the power system must be reported to the relevant departments for review.

The modification time is long and you will have to wait a long time.

Jiangbeicheng did not change the power, but approved the plan of overlapping emerald green and carbon fiber of Maybach. It only proposed customized smoked black wheels to make it look more fashionable.

This modification kit combines elegance, personality and fashion, and the original aristocratic temperament of the Mercedes-Benz is also retained.

"The interior seats and functionality need major changes, and the suspension also needs to be tuned." Jiang Beicheng instructed.

Manager Zhu nodded and said: "Maisari never disappoints customers and will definitely meet all of Mr. Jiang's needs.

Mr. Jiang, I'll ask the finance department to print out the quotation sheet."

Jiang Beicheng looked at Shen Jun and said to Manager Zhu, "Talk to my assistant directly.

The deposit and final payment will be paid through the official account."

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, please come to my office and rest." Manager Zhu invited.

Shen Jun followed the sales staff to reconcile the accounts.

The Mercedes-Benz Avancier costs RMB 377 million, plus a Maybach carbon fiber kit worth RMB 76, plus luxury car taxes and other taxes and insurance fees, and this Mercedes-Benz costs over RMB million.

Shen Jun shook his head, once again shocked by Jiangbei City's financial resources.

I guess the Mercedes-Benz Escalade he drives now is worth several million.

No wonder he had the confidence to build himself a private estate worth 1.8 million.

Her only confusion was, since Mr. Jiang was so rich, why did he open a restaurant?
Tickets?

Anyway, the main purpose cannot be to pursue high profits.

The hotel's profits cannot support his consumption.

Those high-end talents who were not interested in the North City Hotel and did not submit their resumes would probably regret it if they knew about Mr. Jiang's financial resources.

Shen Jun felt that Jiang Beicheng had more cash on hand than the listed company where she used to work.

"The market research work needs to be redone." Shen Jun muttered to himself.

All the previous investigations and data analyses on the second branch of Beicheng Hotel were mainly based on the pursuit of high profits.

Since Mr. Jiang’s main purpose in opening a restaurant is not high returns, he has to reconsider the market positioning of the second store from the perspective of brand image.

Shen Jun decided to make two plans for Jiangbei City.

After reconciling the accounts, contact Xu Ru and the company will follow up on the remaining remittance procedures.

Jiang Beicheng was sitting in Mr. Zhu's office. The sales manager who had accompanied him on the test drive last time took the initiative to bring him coffee and congratulate him on his new car.

Today's outfit is sexier than last time.

The work uniform remains unchanged.

It’s still a combination of white shirt, black pencil skirt, black stockings and high heels.

But the manager is very resourceful.

The hip skirt was deliberately pulled up to the waist, quite a bit. When she squatted down to put the coffee cup for Jiang Beicheng, the roots of her thighs were directly exposed to Jiang Beicheng.

The third button of the shirt was also deliberately unbuttoned, just in time to show off her impressive career line due to the squeezing effect of squatting.

Jiang Beicheng picked up his coffee and joked, "If you weren't the top seller this year, I wouldn't come to Maybach anymore."

The sales manager smiled brightly, knowing that Jiang Beicheng had given her the task of this order again.

Faced with such a straightforward boss, she did not act coyly or test the waters.

He said directly: "If Mr. Jiang needs any personal services, please contact me at any time."

What I mean is, if you want to sleep, just give me a call.

She leaned against Jiang Beicheng's arm and gently placed her business card into his chest pocket.

Jiang Beicheng smiled.

The more proactive a woman is, the more popular she is.

Rather than sleeping with a female car salesperson, he prefers to watch these female salespeople flirt and lick him in front of him for sales.

"Boss Jiang, bye."

After the sales manager left, Mr. Zhu and Mr. Shen walked in.

Shen Jun: "Boss Jiang, the procedures are complete."

Jiang Beicheng nodded: "You and Mr. Zhu exchange contact information. The car here has been modified. Come over and drive back."

Shen Jun nodded.

Jiang Beicheng just gave her the car worth several million, an executive sedan with luxury kit.

Mr. Jiang either trusts her very much and feels that she is capable of handling all the subsequent tasks such as vehicle inspection and test driving.

Or maybe they didn't take it as a big deal.

Shen Jun's heart leaned more towards the latter. She had never seen Mr. Jiang spend money so freely.

"Mr. Jiang, take care."

Mr. Zhu brought people out to see him off.

Jiang Beicheng drove to the company with Shen Jun.

Shen Jun worked overtime at the company at noon and came up with a second plan.

After Jiang Beicheng has his lunch break, print it out and send it to him.

When Jiang Beicheng saw the two plans, he thought that Shen Jun provided two locations. However, after reading them, he was a little surprised at Shen Jun's business ability.

She hasn't been in the workplace for six years, and the trends have changed many times, but she can still adapt.

Jiang Beicheng smiled, thinking that he had found a treasure.

Number of smiles: 55/100

Shen Jun took into consideration many factors, including traffic flow, consumption level, business district homogeneity, city big data push, exposure, etc., and decided to locate the second store in the Guanyinqiao business district in Jiangbei.

One of the top business districts in Jiangnan City.

It is also the business district with the largest flow of people, with an average daily passenger flow of 40 people, which can exceed one million during peak holiday periods, and has huge consumption potential.

It is also the most famous internet celebrity business district in Jiangnan City. Beicheng Hotel also has the genes of an internet celebrity restaurant. Choosing a location here can achieve online traffic superposition and drive traffic to the restaurant.

Mr. Shen also inspected several commercial complexes and made a detailed investment budget.

What Jiangbeicheng needs to decide now is whether the Guanyinqiao branch of Beicheng Hotel should be a brand flagship store or an ordinary branch.

The difference between these two is huge.

For ordinary branches, profit is definitely king, and in aspects such as shop leasing, personnel, marketing, etc., they must consider saving investment costs.

But brand flagship stores are different. They are used to promote the brand image, enhance brand influence, and improve the brand's overall strength.

The investment cost of this type of store is very high, which is equivalent to concentrating the company's best resources together, and there is still the possibility of losing money.

We must continue to operate even if we lose money.

That is the business card of the "Beicheng Hotel" brand.

If it is an ordinary branch, Shen Jun recommends choosing Longhu Tianjie, which has a large flow of people, is an old commercial street and has low rent.

If you want to open a brand flagship store, Shen Jun recommends the MixC in Central which is about to be completed.

A multi-billion dollar luxury shopping mall.

A luxury shopping mall in the northern district jointly developed by China Resources and Hongkong Land.

This is the most popular project in Jiangbei in recent years, and it is also a project to enhance the image of the Guanyinqiao business district, which has no luxury shopping malls.

Government endorsement, strong developer, Vientiane City brand power, top business district, tens of billions of luxury goods, backed by two major luxury residential communities, Qiyuan Guanchen... the buffs are stacked.

The only disadvantage is that the investment cost is too high.

The rental price given by the investment promotion department is 1000 yuan/square meter/month.

A 600-square-meter store has a monthly rent of 600,000 yuan and an annual rent of more than 7 million yuan.

According to the plan of signing a contract starting from five years and increasing it every three years, after deducting some investment incentives, the rent alone will cost 300 to 400 million yuan.

The cost of opening this brand flagship store is estimated to be around 50 million yuan.

It is twice as high as the Guanghuan store, which was bought by Jiangbeicheng himself.

However, Shen Jun thought it was expensive, but Jiang Beicheng did not think so.

Because he has a system.

After completing the first phase of smile count upgrade, the special investment fund provided by the system will also be upgraded.

It is no longer the case that we evaluate how much investment a project requires based on market data as before.

Instead, when investing in new projects, you can directly withdraw from the Smile Fund’s special investment fund.

This means you just enter the amount.

However, this money can only be used for business investment and cannot be withdrawn at other times.

But now the money can be used for the second store project.

"Your work is very detailed. I'm impressed by it after just a few days on the job." Jiang Beicheng first praised Shen Jun, then affirmed, "I agree with the second option. We will open a brand flagship store, a city image store, in the Guanyinqiao business district.

Not only do we have to do it, but we also have to strive to make a profit.”

Shen Jun smiled and nodded.

I was a little excited.

Not only did Jiang Beicheng approve of her plan, but he also confirmed her guess about the boss's thinking.

This is an essential quality for a personal assistant.

"Mr. Jiang, I will go talk to the investment promotion department over there and try to lower the rent and reduce costs." Shen Jun said confidently.

Negotiation is also a professional quality that a general assistant should have.

Jiang Beicheng raised his hand to stop her, "No need to waste your time talking.

When I bought this single commercial property last time, I had some contact and communication with the middle-level managers at Hong Kong Land.

They are also involved in the MixC in Central, so we will go over and discuss the sale price."

"Buy?" Shen Jun stared at Jiang Beicheng with wide eyes.

The prices of shops in a luxury shopping mall worth tens of billions of yuan are incomparable to those in Halo.

At least 50,000 or 60,000 yuan per square meter, and possibly even over 100,000 yuan.

Moreover, luxury shopping malls are all owned by the developers themselves. They will hold on to them for a long time when the market is good, and will hold on to them for more than ten years when the market is bad.

It’s difficult to buy.

Jiang Beicheng picked up the phone and said, “I asked the developer, some of the shops facing the street will be sold, but there are only 35 seats.

This type of shop is relatively small, so we need to hurry up and buy townhouses and then connect them for use.”

Shen Jun was still in shock. Judging from Jiang Beicheng's tone, was he planning to buy several shops?
