Fang Zhiqiang took the report and carefully looked at and discussed it with the people in the marketing department. Then the next day, Fang Zhiqiang took two employees from the marketing department and the two store managers from the No. 1 and No. 2 stores. I went out for a day of running, and it was still the same on the third day. Finally, I ran out for three days. After three days, Fang Zhiqiang signed a contract with a developer and rented a store with an area of ​​220 square meters. , and it is a new facade, because this is the street facade of a newly developed property by a developer. There is nothing to say about the location. These are all chosen and discussed by the people from the marketing department and the buyers. In the end, they were almost done talking, and then Fang Zhiqiang finally went over to make the final decision.

Fang Zhiqiang finally signed an agreement and rented it for one year at a price of 400,000 yuan. Because they were rough and it was a new building, the price was relatively cheaper, and they also welcomed it. A big customer like Fang Zhiqiang does get a discount on the price, but the rent is paid once a year, small boss, so there is a problem with the capital chain and cash is needed. This is a great advantage for Fang Zhiqiang. Although he needs to spend more than ten or two hundred thousand to decorate it, the agreement he signed is for ten years, and it is not much per year if it is amortized equally.

After signing the contract for the No. 3 store, Fang Zhiqiang directly transferred the original manager of the No. 2 store to the No. 3 store as the store manager. He was responsible for all the preparations for the store. Of course, the store The manager is only in charge. Equipment purchases need to be submitted through the purchasing department, and funds need to be managed uniformly by the finance department. Moreover, the marketing department has a special investment plan, and the operations department must come up with a detailed new store construction plan, including how many people, what equipment, and how to decorate it. From the detailed documents and renderings, there is basically nothing fishy here. Everything is neat and standardized, completely standardized. Each department is responsible for its own affairs and supervises and checks and balances each other. This allows Fang Zhiqiang, a real manager, to no longer have to work hard. The store manager of this No. 3 store is the former store manager of the No. 2 store, and he is the new store manager of the No. 2 store. He is a college student who was recruited before and graduated from a professional business management major. He actually knows these things very well.

Because of the company’s standardized management, everything is standardized and neat, so everything is very fast. They have all the renderings themselves, and then invited four or five decoration companies to come directly. We negotiated and decided to give it to the one with the lowest price. Finally, we awarded it to one of the decoration companies at a price of 210,000 yuan, and the time given was only 20 days. Here, the purchasing department has started unified equipment procurement. These have specialized suppliers. The purchasing department just sends the quantities directly and tells them when to deliver them. Everything is very convenient, unlike Fang Zhiqiang before. When I opened the No. 1 and No. 2 stores by myself.

Finally, the detailed budget was released. The investment budget for No. 3 store reached 950,000 yuan. Although this exceeded the estimate by tens of thousands yuan, it was still within the acceptable range.Inside.

While the No. 3 store was being renovated, the No. 4 store had already reached an agreement, and Fang Zhiqiang personally signed the agreement. The area and scale of the No. 4 store are much smaller. It is only about 120 square meters, and the rent is 25,000 yuan a month, with decoration. Finally, the fourth store also started construction at the same time. In the end, the budget of the fourth store reached 560,000. The two stores require a total of more than 1.5 million, and all the funds in Fang Zhiqiang's account are only this 1.5 million, so they are all invested in this store.

But fortunately, their company's operation is quite special. Funds are entered into the account every day, and there is no problem with cash flow, so there is no situation where there is no money in the company account.

Fang Zhiqiang transferred the store manager of the No. 1 store to the No. 3 store as the store manager, and the deputy store manager who was previously trained there took over as the store manager of the No. 1 and No. 2 stores. This is The company has the advantage of retaining talents. There is no need to find people when you need them.

While Fang Zhiqiang was paying attention to the progress of the No. 3 and No. 4 stores every day, the newly appointed store manager No. 1 found Fang Zhiqiang and submitted an expansion plan to Fang Zhiqiang. plan, according to what he said, he had talked with the owner of the stationery store next door. In fact, the owner of the stationery store was not doing well and was not making money. He had long wanted to sell the store. Therefore, the store manager suggested that the company take over the facade of the stationery store, open up the wall in the middle, expand the No. 1 store, which is currently the smallest, and implement standardized operations for all the company's stores. No. 1 store has also reached normal levels. This stationery store also has an area of ​​nearly 30 square meters. With these more than 30 square meters, No. 1 store can carry out a one-stop shop for all product categories. Fang Zhiqiang was very interested in this plan and immediately asked the marketing department to do the research and analysis. In the end, Fang Zhiqiang invested hundreds of thousands more to expand the No. 1 store.

After this series of events, Fang Zhiqiang’s company is basically clean. Fortunately, these investments are not a one-time expenditure of money, they all come slowly. After all, it is corporatized. In many aspects of operation, payment can be postponed, so the funds can be met. Otherwise, if it is all a one-time payment, Fang Zhiqiang will not have that much money at all.

Originally, the company’s situation was that there were many people and few things to do. However, after the launch of these new projects, everyone has been busy and everyone has endless things to do. , the company that had always seemed very relaxed suddenly became nervous, and this is a situation that Fang Zhiqiang is happy to see. This is the most normal company operating model.

And now Fang Zhiqiang is no longer stupid. As the person in charge of a company, he knows that the business he runs also needs support from some aspects. On the one hand, Fang Zhiqiang found connections through Wang Xia and found the person in charge of the industrial and commercial administration department responsible for the regional locations of his current stores.Start trying to develop a personal relationship with these people in charge. In addition, Wang Yaxin was also approached. Wang Yaxin had worked in the legal field for so many years and had such a status. Naturally, he knew some friends in the public security system. Fang Zhiqiang also began to try to get closer to some leaders in the public security system. He knows that in order to continue doing business, we must do a good job in human relations. This is the national condition. Otherwise, the company will always be in trouble. If he wants the company to expand further, he must start to build his own network of relationships.
