Chapter 712 Development Frustrated
(Thank you friends for your rewards and encouragement, and thank you friends for the encouragement of sheep breed monthly tickets)
South Korea has surpassed Japan and become the new kingdom of convenience stores, which refers to the per capita coverage of chain stores.Compared with Japan in terms of single store profit and the total number of convenience stores, it is still much worse.

Insufficient background and small national population are flaws. South Korea's population is less than half that of Japan.

Many convenience stores joined under the pressure of employment to scrape together some money.The speed of opening stores is fast, and the speed of closing stores is not slow.Just like the 711 chain store in South Korea, it is also facing such a problem.

In Japan, No. 1 of the Big Three in the chain store industry is still 711, with Family Mart and Lawson ranking the third. 711 has [-] stores, Family Mart has [-] stores, and Lawson has [-] stores.

It can be said that these three convenience store chain groups have firmly controlled the Japanese convenience store market, and 711 is a well-deserved leader in the industry.

Then, there were a few hiccups.

Liu Heming intends to promote the acquisition of land in Japan through cooperation with chain stores.He fiddled with this abacus quite well, but Qing Yehao was not stupid.You don't want us to get more benefits, and you still want to develop in Japan, so just wait a little longer.

Even if they helped respond to the protests last time, it was only a courtesy.Then there is nothing else to do. If you don’t want us to discuss cooperation, then let’s do it first.

Liu Heming's little calculation was well done, but he didn't understand it.Hiroshi Kiyono knows how difficult it will be to sell arable land in Japan.

Therefore, people have capital.After all, even if you get land and grow vegetables through other channels in the future, you will still have to sell it, right?Is it still impossible to get around the chain store?
The anchors have been broadcasting for two days, Michael is almost here, and there is no movement from 711.Liu Heming felt that 711 should not be relied on too much, and people can ignore you, so he asked Susanna to start contacting the Japanese family.

If the boss can't do it, just look for the second child, and the whole family is not bad, just a little weaker.Anyway, this matter does not affect Susanna's great career in hot springs, and you can't soak in hot springs for too long, or you will be ruined.

After arranging this matter, Liu Heming set his sights on these anchors.He found that he was somewhat behind the trend of the times and was out of date.

Usually he doesn't pay much attention to the anchor industry. In his heart, he still has traditional thinking. He thinks that if he wants to do publicity, he still needs to find celebrities, or the bigger the better.

But he really thought about it badly. As a new media industry, these anchors really have the same influence as those stars.

He also registered an account and went to the rooms of those anchors to watch it. It is true that many people came here just to watch beautiful women soak in the hot springs, but these anchors still have a certain fan base.This makes the appeal of these anchors very strong.

Although the hot spring area has not yet officially opened to the public, and some houses in the hot spring area acquired later are still being remodeled, some people have already begun to ask where the hot spring is.

Liu Heming wanted to start business sooner, or start a trial operation, but all the procedures have not been completed, and it is still a little bit close.People also have to conduct relevant inspections on your place, and you also have to recruit some staff.

Not to mention anything else, cleaning staff and cooking chefs, you have to match these two types of jobs.

Mikako cooks Japanese-style home-cooked food, so it's no problem entertaining her family, but it's still a level below the level of consumption for those tourists.

The strong appeal of the anchors also accelerated his process of recruiting chefs.

His requirements are not high, as long as the cooks recruited this time can cook traditional Japanese dishes, the taste is good.It doesn't necessarily have to be something like kaiseki cuisine. This is a free meal for tourists. The standard is set too high, but it is not easy to price.

The method of assessment is to cook the dishes directly, and then he will take everyone to taste them.

Delicacy is an inherent attribute of Japanese cuisine, no matter which chef cooks the dishes, they are all exquisite.However, because the threshold set by Liu Heming is a bit low, although many people came to apply for the job, only two chefs successfully applied in one day.

He and Alex still have a bit of a relationship, not to say that they can be fooled by lowering the threshold, and the skills of these cooks also need to be controlled.

"Boss, the whole family is not so easy to talk about." Suzanne who came back from the outside said very seriously.

"Don't worry, try this buckwheat noodles first, it's very refreshing." Liu Heming said with a smile.

"Boss, why don't we contact 711 again?" Suzanne asked.

Liu Heming shook his head, "When contacting 711, they won't give us much preferential terms. On the contrary, they will want to strive for more benefits. Qing Yehao made it very obvious when he came over last time."

"Actually, we were prepared for the difficulties in buying land in South Korea and Japan, but this time the development of the industry in South Korea went smoothly, which changed our mentality."

"You contacted the whole family this time, what did they say, did they propose any conditions?"

"They will limit the purchase and sales prices of agricultural products, and the contract needs to be signed for a long time. If our vegetables have quality problems, their compensation standards will be very high." Suzanne said helplessly.

"The turnover of FamilyMart convenience stores has increased a lot this year, and they are now trying their best to compete with 711. It is estimated that our cooperation with 711 in South Korea will also be taken into consideration by them. We know that we have not yet reached an agreement with 711, but they But it will not give us more benefits because of the competition with 711."

This is also what makes her very depressed. Obviously, after cooperating with her here, it will definitely have a greater impact on 711, but the whole family not only did not make any concessions, but also insisted.

Even if today is only the first contact, that attitude is very clear.

"Then let's put this matter down first. Next, our focus should be on the management of the hot spring area." Liu Heming said after thinking for a while.

"Then we contacted the local government in Japan through formal channels, without taking advantage of tricks. Even if it is a little difficult, we still have something to talk about."

"Although the land here is expensive, it's not impossible to sell it. Anyway, I'm already planning to get a loan from Citibank. It's okay if we buy the land here at a slightly higher price."

"The other thing is about our fertilizers, and we will send them to the relevant departments in South Korea and Japan for approval as soon as possible. The improvement of the land is inseparable from those fertilizers, especially in Japan."

"Well, maybe it was too smooth when we did business before." Suzanne nodded.

The development of the company has always been smooth and smooth, and has not received any obstacles.Especially in South Korea so smoothly, it also made Suzanne feel that Japan is not as difficult as imagined.

Now she also knows that sometimes there are some things, you have to rely on your strength, you can't take advantage of it.

"By the way, boss, I also checked some information in the past two days. There is a serious shortage of labor force in Japan. Many farms or planting areas can't recruit local people at all. Most of them are trainees from China. Then we will buy it in the future. After the land, what to do?" Suzanne asked after eating some soba noodles.

"We will continue to hire. In fact, even now our hot spring area has encountered difficulties in recruiting cleaning staff. The number of chefs who come to apply is more than three times that of those cleaning staff, but our demand for chefs is not so high. " Liu Heming said with a smile.

"Now I'm wondering whether to directly recruit some Chinese people who can understand Japanese to work here. The salary we give is not low, but these locals are not very interested."

"I've also been to other hot spring shops, and most of the staff there are elderly people, and the proportion of young staff should not exceed 30%."

"Huh? I thought the boss was fooling around every day. When did he know these things?" Susanna asked curiously.

Liu Heming rolled his eyes, "It's my own business anyway, can I do it if I don't care?"

How can he not care about the hindered development in Japan.But he also knew that it was useless to rush to get angry, everything had to be done with his own strength.

I used to think too much about tricks, thinking that with the high-quality vegetables I grew myself, I would be able to go on a flat trip.In fact, that is not the case at all, and there are many factors that need to be considered.

Just like the personnel demand just mentioned, it is a very serious problem here in Japan.The severity of the aging problem in Japan is currently the highest in the world.

Not only because the birth rate has dropped a lot, but another factor is that the age of suicide groups has begun to decrease.In the past, most of them were middle-aged and couldn't bear the pressure of life, but now many young people have begun to catch up with this trend.

In Japan, the average life expectancy is relatively high. The combination of these factors makes the population aging here more prominent.As a business, they all like to hire young people, and the demand for labor is also greater.

It is difficult for the locals to recruit people in hot spring hotels, let alone him as an outsider.Moreover, the number of planters needed in the future will be higher than here, and it will be a headache at that time.

"By the way, we won't stay here for too long. We will go to the Australian islands in a few days, and Alex's movie will continue to be filmed next month." Liu Heming continued.

"Hey, I'm afraid I can't go over there to play with you. The business in Japan is a headache." Susanna sighed.

"Take your time, anyway, you plan to spend more time in the hot spring here." Liu Heming said with a smile.

This time there is no chance for tricks, so we can only do real business here.
