Rebirth 2004: I can make money by writing.

Two days later,

Children's Day.

Hao Qiang gave Qiu Yuqing a gift: a beetle

2005 1.8t automatic luxury version, 150 horsepower, priced at 25 yuan, with a white body.

This car is more suitable for women and students.

There happens to be an automatic model. If it were a manual transmission, I guess novices would not be able to get used to it.

Of course, Hao Qiang also wanted to buy a 2004 Porsche 911, but it would cost two million yuan, and he didn't have enough money to buy a car at the moment.

At five o'clock in the afternoon of that day, Qiu Yuqing came to the villa and was extremely surprised when she received the gift.

Her family has a car, but it belongs to her parents, which is different from a car given to her by the person she likes.

"Brother Qiang, thank you, I like it very much." Qiu Yuqing put her arms around Hao Qiang's neck and gave him a passionate kiss with a smile.

Hao Qiang hugged her slender waist, clicked his tongue, and said with a laugh, "It's fine as long as you like it. If you don't like it, let's change it. Don't force yourself."

"Yeah, I really like it. It's low-key and profound." Qiu Yuqing nodded seriously, revealing her signature sweet and healing smile.

"Then let's test drive the car." Hao Qiang asked her to get in the car and sit in the driver's seat for a test drive.

Qiu Yuqing had only had her driver's license for a few days, so her driving experience was rusty.

Hao Qiang first explained to her the functions of the buttons on the new car, with particular emphasis on the accelerator and brake, as well as how to determine the width of the car.

This car is only 1721 mm wide and 4129 mm long, which makes it very easy to drive for veteran drivers.

Hao Qiang sat in the passenger seat, and Qiu Yuqing started the car with a little excitement.

She gently gripped the steering wheel with both hands, her eyes focused and determined.

"Step on the accelerator gently and don't be nervous." Hao Qiang reminded.

Qiu Yuqing took a deep breath, gently stepped on the accelerator, and the car started slowly.

First practice parking in the villa parking space. After practicing it enough and getting the hang of it, Hao Qiang lets Qiu Yuqing drive out of the villa complex.

Qiu Yuqing is a girl with a brave heart and quick thinking. She quickly became familiar with the performance of the car after a while.

The two had dinner at a restaurant and then continued to practice test driving.

After driving on the highway for nearly an hour, Hao Qiang felt that Qiu Yuqing was already familiar with the traffic conditions, and the two drove back to the villa contentedly.

In the evening, Qiu Yuqing performed a dance for Hao Qiang, which was Hao Qiang's favorite split.

Afterwards, the two engaged in intense exercise in the bathtub.

Tonight, Qiu Yuqing was very proactive, allowing Hao Qiang to enjoy a different experience.

The next day,

Hao Qiang came to the office building.

At ten o'clock in the morning of that day, Renjian Fireworks held a monthly summary meeting. Participants included Hao Qiang, Wang Xiaofeng, Li Feiyu, Jiang Ying and the store managers of the four stores.

First, Yang Qiuhong, the manager of Store No. 3, reported: "Since its opening, Store No. 3 has generated approximately 681,000 yuan in revenue in May... The main issues are... In recent days, the average daily revenue has exceeded 40,000 yuan."

Then, other store managers reported on their work from the previous month.

4号店61.2万元，2号店191万元，创始店31万元。

The four stores had a total revenue of approximately 351.3 million yuan in May.

In general, the two new stores are developing in a good direction, and the revenue of the two old stores is relatively stable, with a slight decline compared to last month, which is normal.

After the store managers finished their reports, Wang Xiaofeng made a summary and analyzed the existing problems.

At the same time, Wang Xiaofeng compared and analyzed the situations of several brand stores in the same industry.

Wang Xiaofeng continued, “I think our biggest problem right now is the food supply chain, which is mainly reflected in the unstable supply of fresh beef and free-range chicken.

The second problem is that our meticulous service is a bit embarrassing for a large number of customers with social anxiety. I think we should differentiate our services and provide different services for different customers.

Of course, this places too much demand on the waiters. I suggest that they try not to interfere with the customers’ meals and not force them to eat the dishes.

The third issue is that local customers are more interested in healthy hot pot, but many are looking for a stimulating taste. Our waiters need to be more precise when making recommendations to customers."

Wang Xiaofeng raised several major problems that currently exist, some of which have no solutions, while some have relatively reasonable solutions.

"Everyone else please speak up and pool your ideas."

Hao Qiang decided to remain silent for the time being and listen attentively to the opinions of his subordinates.

Once you express your own opinions, you may interfere with the performance of your subordinates, and may even make the entire discussion too oriented towards your own views, thus losing the true meaning of the discussion.

Yang Qiuhong suggested: "I think our menu can be optimized.

Many consumers choose to eat at a restaurant because of a specific taste or item.

I think our items don’t have any outstanding features compared to other hotpot restaurants. The most common feature that comes to mind is probably the nail art.

What if other competitors follow suit? Then our advantage will be gone."

“Opening too many items results in too many product categories, which puts pressure on warehouses, places higher demands on chefs, and reduces production efficiency.

I think we can't blindly pursue differentiation." Lin Yan, store manager No. 4, also expressed his opinion, "Of course, it's nice to occasionally have a new product to change the taste of old customers.

If you keep eating the same thing, you’ll get tired of it.”

After everyone had no more suggestions, Hao Qiang offered his opinion and summarized: "Regarding the supply of fresh beef, we are indeed facing some challenges. The main reason is that our demand has not yet reached a sufficient scale..."

He went on to announce: “Regarding the new store on the 5th, we have confirmed the location at Tianhui Plaza and can start the renovation work. The goal is to officially open it at the end of June.

At the same time, we will also closely monitor the availability of vacant stores in Baiyun CapitaLand Plaza. Once a suitable store becomes available, we will immediately rent it and prepare for the opening of store number 6.”

Hao Qiang made clear arrangements for the planning of the two new stores.

The current situation of Renjian Fireworks is very optimistic, so we should seize the opportunity and open as many stores as possible.

After all, the return cycle of such investment is short and the investment can be recovered within a few months.

As the number of stores continues to increase and a certain degree of popularity is established in the industry, Hao Qiang believes that it is time to consider financing.

Only through financing can we achieve rapid expansion, thereby occupying a more advantageous position in the industry and laying a solid foundation for the road to listing.

Raise funds earlier, go public earlier, and raise money earlier to invest in other industries.

The profit of Renjianyanhuo is good, but in terms of making money, it is far less than the speed of raising money through listing.

Those who work in industry cannot compare with those who work in finance.

For Hao Qiang, the mundane world is a tool to hone his management skills and accumulate wealth, and he might sell it in the future.

Of course, he also hopes to drive the development of his hometown by developing the Renjian Fireworks Company. Who doesn't want his hometown to prosper?

The economic development of Hao Qiang's hometown lagged behind until around 2017, when the industrial park near the town developed. Job opportunities for local villagers gradually increased, and farmers' incomes also saw a leapfrog increase.

In just a few years, many families bought cars.

When it comes to supporting the development of his hometown, Hao Qiang admires another brother Qiang very much.

He also wanted to see how his hometown could develop with his help.

For Hao Qiang, this is also an honor.
