A heavy hangover sent Li Cheng back to 1999. Facing people who were both familiar and unfamiliar, Li Cheng was indeed excited. "This is time reversal, my youth is back!"
Li Cheng deci...
The supermarket is running well, much better than Li Cheng and his team expected.
With the right concept, effective means and professional staff to manage it, it would be strange if the supermarket is not popular!
The twenty-third day of the twelfth lunar month is the Little New Year in the north.
The general manager hired by Li Chenggaoxin saw that the supermarket was very popular and wanted to add fuel to the fire. So, he thought of holding a special sale on eggs on the day of Xiaonian to add more fuel to the popularity of the supermarket.
To this end, he had people prepare 500 eggs in advance, and on the day of the Little New Year, each egg was sold for only one dollar.
Ten eggs for one dollar, this advertisement instantly went viral among the city’s middle-aged women.
So, on the day of Little New Year, there was already a long queue at the door before the supermarket opened.
The supermarket's vice president, Lao Sun, who was the former deputy director of the tape recorder factory, felt a little scared when he saw the long line in front of him and the old men and women walking towards him.
He quickly called Li Cheng. After Li Cheng learned about the situation over the phone, he immediately imagined the situation over there.
Looks so familiar! Eggs on sale!
Deputy Director Sun, oh, now he is Vice President Sun. The voice on the phone sounded a little scary. Li Cheng also felt a little uneasy, always feeling that something was going to happen.
So Li Cheng hurried to the supermarket.
When he arrived, Li Cheng understood why Vice President Sun was so scared. Not only was there a long line in front of the supermarket, but it was also incredibly crowded.
Queuing is a good thing, as it maintains order. However, when the queue is too long and there are two of them, it is not a good thing, as it is a prelude to a stampede.
Li Cheng glanced at his watch and knew that the supermarket would open in less than an hour.
At this time, the team had turned onto the road, and several traffic management personnel were clearing the road.
Li Cheng turned around and asked, "You only prepared 500 eggs?"
Vice President Sun approached him and whispered, "Only 500 copies."
Li Chengxin said that there were more than a thousand people in front of him.
This is still a small matter. Once the supermarket opens, these old men and women will rush forward, and a serious stampede will occur.
"Is Mr. Liu here?"
Mr. Liu is the general manager hired by Li Cheng.
"He's on his way."
"Call him and ask him to find the supplier and send another batch of eggs."
Vice President Sun quickly made a phone call, while Li Cheng looked at the two long lines in front of him and thought to himself that it was not enough to just meet the supply of eggs, the most important thing was to maintain order.
After thinking about it, Li Cheng said in his heart: It's the New Year, please don't let anything trouble happen.
Seeing that Vice President Sun had finished his call, Li Cheng asked him to go to the supermarket and call the employees out, and to bring paper, pen and official seal.
Ten minutes later, Vice President Sun arrived with his men. Li Cheng gave them some instructions, and they split into several groups and headed towards the queue...
Vice President Sun led these employees and started handing out pieces of paper with official seals to the old men and women as they walked along the team.
Before handing out the slips of paper, they would ask the old men and women, "Do you want eggs today or tomorrow? Ten eggs for one dollar today, eleven eggs tomorrow."
An old lady asked, "What about the day after tomorrow?"
The answer is "twelve".
And on New Year’s Eve, there are seventeen.
These bargain-hunting old men and women hesitated, and the supermarket employees seemed impatient. Seeing that they were still hesitating, they walked to the back...
The old men and women were anxious and shouted, "I want eggs for tomorrow..."
"I want the egg from the day after tomorrow..."
"I want the one for New Year's Eve..."
Quickly issue egg coupons and quickly guide them away...
The supermarket employees were divided into more than a dozen groups, which cut the two long lines into several sections.
By doing this, the old men and women were evacuated in a very short time.
Li Cheng saw that some elderly men and women had left, while others had not left but were waiting for the supermarket to open to shop. He then instructed Vice President Sun, "The supermarket will be open at normal times today. Please ask the greeters at the door to pay attention to safety and not to crowd these elderly people."
Vice President Sun agreed and quickly arranged for more reception staff.
At this time, General Manager Liu came.
"Boss Li, that was a close call! Boss Sun has already told me everything. Thank goodness you came, otherwise something terrible would have happened..."
Looking at Mr. Liu, whose forehead was still sweating in the cold weather, Li Cheng said seriously, "It's a good thing to find ways to increase customer flow. But before making any decisions, shouldn't you think about it a few more times to see if it's appropriate?"
Mr. Liu was so ashamed that he kept saying, "Mr. Li is right. I thought too simply. I will definitely think more carefully before doing anything next time..."
Li Cheng knew that he was very experienced in running a shopping mall and didn't want to dampen his enthusiasm. Seeing that he was indeed scared, he patted him on the shoulder, put on a smile and said, "But your egg promotion method is really good. Look, many of them haven't left yet. Maybe they think that since they are here, they might as well buy something before leaving!"
Mr. Liu looked at the orderly line of people slowly making their way toward the supermarket and said, "Although it was a close call, it did achieve the goal of attracting customers. Mr. Li, you said before that you had no experience running a supermarket, but I didn't believe you. As for today's crisis, you resolved it in such a short time. I don't think it's a matter of experience, but rather a matter of your talent as a general."
Li Cheng laughed and thought to himself, do you think I won't punish you if you say a few words to flatter me?
