Chapter 448: The Merchant Alliance Gains Cohesion (5K)
Many reporters came to the Chamber of Commerce.
In fact, they didn’t pay much attention to Yan Peng’s achievements, they were mainly attracted by Zeng Wenjie.
This young man has just received nearly 100 million yuan in financing, and the game he collaborated with Penguin has also been open for testing and received high ratings.
What they want to know more is Zeng Wenjie's next move, his plan for this investment, and whether he will deepen cooperation with Penguin.
It is rare for Chongshan Province to have such a star entrepreneur, and he is so young, a college student, and one of the top ten outstanding young people in the province. His BUFF can be said to be fully stacked.
The provincial government also sent a special person to attend the meeting, and they were arranged to sit in the front seats, including the director of the investment promotion office, the highest-ranking one.
As the president, Zeng Wenjie was naturally the one to open the meeting.
He held the information sheet submitted by Yan Peng in his hand and said with a smile, "This meeting will be presided over by Yan Peng, the founder of Brother Miao. As the president of the Chamber of Commerce, I will open the meeting. Well, I will also report to all partners, leaders, and friends on President Yan's recent achievements..."
"After Mr. Yan's branch implemented reforms according to the Fengzhou Business Alliance's recommendations, its sales nearly doubled. After applying these reforms to the main store, the results were even more impressive."
"Last Sunday, the Miao Lao Ge main restaurant, located in the commercial center of Xiaoquan District, served a total of 1,080 tables of customers in one day. This set a record for the highest number of guests since Miao Lao Ge opened, and also set a record for the entire Fengzhou catering industry."
"Mr. Yan has achieved such remarkable success thanks to his hard work and willingness to accept excellent suggestions, which has enabled him to provide the best catering service. Of course, this is also inseparable from the support and care of our customers."
Yan Peng was grinning from ear to ear. He had joined the Fengzhou Business Alliance out of respect for the provincial government.
Moreover, we adopted the reform suggestions provided by Zeng Wenjie with a try-it attitude and applied them to the branch near the university town. Unexpectedly, the effect was surprisingly good.
Therefore, this plan was immediately implemented in all the chain stores under its command, especially the main store in Koizumi District, which was best implemented. The population there was dense, and the geographical location was optimal, and it set a legendary record of turning over a thousand tables in one day.
It is conceivable that if this can be maintained for a while, it is only a matter of time before Brother Miao breaks through the city barriers. Moreover, after perfecting this system, he will be able to raise funds.
Yan Peng, dressed in a suit, shiny leather shoes and a tie, walked onto the stage and shook hands with Zeng Wenjie.
Zeng Wenjie gave him his seat, walked down and sat down, pretending to take out a pen and paper, but in fact he had no intention of taking notes at all.
Yan Peng said, "Before the establishment of the Fengzhou Merchant Alliance, we also established many merchant groups, chambers of commerce, and merchant alliances in Chongshan Province. However, for some reason, these organizations became more and more like empty shells as they developed, and they could not play any real role."
"When I first joined the Fengzhou Merchant Alliance, I was just trying it out. Furthermore, I was very impressed by President Zeng's remarkable achievements at such a young age."
"So, when the Chamber of Commerce chose me as the first recipient of assistance, I was quite surprised and delighted."
"The reform suggestions proposed by the president were novel and practical. After they were applied to our branches, the results were immediate. Sales increased that day. After word of mouth spread, sales continued to rise."
"Although President Zeng is young, he has a unique vision and perspective in the business world that even we veterans who have been in the business world for decades don't possess..."
Zeng Wenjie got the praise award first.
Yan Peng slammed Zeng Wenjie. In fact, the reform proposal was Zeng Wenjie's idea alone, and it was almost completely copied from Haidilao in later generations.
Then, Yan Peng began to talk about his experience in reforming the restaurant, especially the service aspect. After he received the true teachings of Zeng Wenjie, he really felt enlightened and felt that his vision and horizons were broadened.
Several leaders from the province who attended the meeting were very serious and took a lot of notes. They felt that what Yan Peng said was all dry goods, almost like rice that had been broken down and fed into their mouths. It would be a pity not to listen carefully.
This set can not only be used in catering, but can also be used in various service industries after slight modifications, including but not limited to hotels and other industries.
Yan Peng spoke for almost an hour, and what he said was all practical stuff, so the members present did not find it boring.
We are all in the business world, and who doesn't want to make more money? Listening to more good content is a surefire way to do that.
Finally, Yan Peng once again thanked President Zeng Wenjie and the Fengzhou Business Alliance, and concluded: "The Fengzhou Business Alliance is truly a very special organization. Under the leadership of President Zeng Wenjie, it is full of vigor and youthful drive. I believe it will continue to do better and better. At the same time, I also look forward to more partners joining the Fengzhou Business Alliance and contributing to the business development of our impoverished and backward Chongshan Province. This concludes my speech. Thank you all for your patience in listening."
After bowing, Yan Peng walked down the stage. The thunderous applause made him feel elated.
This reform made him a lot of money and gave him the courage and strength to break the current predicament.
After he has thoroughly studied this system and implemented it throughout the company, he will begin to expand. He wonders if it will be noticed by some capital and attract large investments?
"Mr. Yan's speech was brilliant. Although it lasted an hour, I felt like I hadn't said enough. I wonder if you all felt the same way? Actually, the Chamber of Commerce only gave Mr. Yan a series of reform suggestions. The person who truly implemented them was Mr. Yan himself. The achievements he has made today are a reflection of his own abilities."
"Moreover, Mr. Yan's talk also contained a lot of in-depth content that I had not thought of, which also benefited me a lot."
"The next speech will be given by Mr. Chen Lianfang, the founder of the Honghuo Spicy Noodle Factory."
Zeng Wenjie briefly came on stage to summarize, and then gave his seat to Chen Lianfang.
When people hear the name Chen Lianfang, they think she is a woman, but she is actually a real man, and she has a bit of the gangster spirit of a gangster, which is quite similar to Zhuang Bifan.
Chen Lianfang said, "When I met the president, the Fengzhou Business Alliance hadn't been established yet, and his snack shop hadn't even opened yet..."
Chen Lianfang was the first person to listen to the advice. He deepened Zeng Wenjie's idea of bundling products with scenarios and placed an advertisement on "The Voice of China". It can be said that he reaped a huge profit. The sales of the spicy snack factory have continued to rise, and the products have been sold outside the province.
Yan Peng alone may not be enough to convince everyone, but what about Chen Lianfang?
Both of them who listened to the advice made money, and Chen Lianfang made money before joining the Fengzhou Business Alliance.
When Yan Peng talks about it, people are moved; when Chen Lianfang talks about it again, people are convinced.
Although Zeng Wenjie is young, he is really capable. Those who listen to his advice can make money with him. There is a reason why the provincial government strongly supports and promotes this college student entrepreneur. He is indeed capable of serving as a signature figure of Chongshan Province.
Chen Lianfang also spoke for almost an hour.
The first conference since the establishment of Fengzhou Business Alliance has ended, and the entrepreneurs who came to attend the conference felt that they had gained a lot.
Whether it is Yan Peng or Chen Lianfang, the service industry they talked about and the deep binding of products and scenarios are very beneficial. They can help people find an angle to start from and look for a way that is suitable for their own industry.
Zeng Wenjie concluded, "At present, the Fengzhou Business Alliance will fully support Mr. Yan in developing Miao Lao Ge's catering business. Once Miao Lao Ge grows strong and creates sufficient market value to move beyond Chongshan, we will select another outstanding enterprise for support. The Fengzhou Business Alliance, established on the principle of mutual assistance, is committed to promoting business development in Chongshan and uniting outstanding entrepreneurs from all walks of life. We welcome everyone to sign up and join us at any time."
This relatively long meeting ended with applause.
Zeng Wenjie also breathed a sigh of relief. Nothing went wrong at the meeting. The leaders from the province who came to attend the meeting were also very satisfied and recognized Zeng Wenjie as the president.
Then, Zeng Wenjie accepted an interview with reporters.
One reporter asked an interesting question, "Mr. Zeng, I noticed you wrote "The Lone Warrior" for your mentor, and it's now used as the theme song for the TV series "The True Colors of a Man." Are you considering a career in the entertainment industry in the future?"
Zeng Wenjie was stunned when he heard this. That song was copied to get free use of Xie's two-year spokesperson status. How could he have such an idea?
Moreover, Lao Xie is kind enough to supplement the contract with him and share the excess profit with him. He will definitely have a good income in the future.
After everyone outside the Chamber of Commerce left, it became less lively.
Xue Lu smiled at Zeng Wenjie and said, "It seems that our business alliance is going to grow stronger. After this report is broadcast, there will definitely be many new members who want to join."
Zeng Wenjie said, "We need to carefully screen them. Our business alliance is linked to the provincial government, so we can't let those involved in the gray industry get in. Otherwise, the impact will be very serious."
Xue Lu felt embarrassed when he heard this, he had made his fortune by doing these things, but after the Luo Hui incident, his assets became cleaner.
Feng Xiao saw Zeng Wenjie surrounded by members of the Chamber of Commerce. Everyone wanted him to help them with ideas and improve their business.
But Zeng Wenjie shook his head and said, "I'm not Doraemon. I can give you whatever you want. Ideas come to you in a flash. Everyone should come to the Chamber of Commerce for meetings and brainstorm, and ideas will naturally come to you."
No one playing Landlord will start throwing bombs crazily at the beginning.
If Zeng Wenjie throws all the bombs and has no more cards to play, the Chamber of Commerce will have no room for development.
Let Yan Peng build up the brand first, and then make arrangements one by one, throwing out these bombs in stages, and attracting more outstanding entrepreneurs to the business alliance.
The stronger the Chamber of Commerce becomes, the higher his status and influence will be, and naturally the more political achievements Zhuang Aimin will achieve.
Fengzhou Business Alliance is of great importance to both of them and must be managed well.
"Don't worry, everyone. The Chamber of Commerce is currently focusing on helping Mr. Yan develop his business. Once Brother Miao achieves even better results, the Chamber of Commerce will help him raise funds and see if he can attract financing. Let Brother Miao become the first catering company in Chongshan to go beyond the province!" Zeng Wenjie said with a smile, "Once Brother Miao succeeds, I will then return my focus to helping you consider the development and marketing of your business."
Everyone realizes that Zeng Wenjie is a serious marketing genius. He has a dazzling array of things like the BRIC Challenge and the new customer lottery. He must have some powerful tricks that he has hidden away.
But since he said that, don't force him to say it. Even if you force him, it will be useless because he is just using Brother Miao as an excuse.
Then again, when the Chamber of Commerce was first established, no one took it too seriously.
Yan Peng cooperated with Zeng Wenjie only because of his acquaintance in the provincial government, and then he was the first to reap the benefits.
Chen Lianfang's speech just now made them realize that if they want to make more money, they really have to cooperate with Zeng Wenjie. Just throwing out two ideas will be enough to double their performance!
When it came to the dinner after the meeting, Zeng Wenjie clearly felt that the cohesion within the Chamber of Commerce had increased. Some people who had been relatively indifferent began to take it seriously and said that they would donate some funds to the Chamber of Commerce for activities.
With Yan Peng as an example, Zeng Wenjie could confidently apply to the provincial government for some operating funds for the business alliance. After all, it was impossible for him to use his own money to support this business alliance established in cooperation with the government, right?
Wang Hai was also one of the people who knew Zeng Wenjie earlier. He was the owner of the Crisp Whistle Factory.
Now the business is only aimed at breakfast shops and restaurants in the city. Following Zeng Wenjie's advice, he set up a stall in the "Village BA" and gained some reputation, but he still did not achieve the leap-forward improvement like Chen Lianfang.
So, he was so anxious that he scratched his head and drank two glasses of wine. He couldn't help but say to Zeng Wenjie, "Mr. Zeng, when will the opportunity you mentioned come? Should I consider naming it 'Village BA'?"
Zeng Wenjie shook his head and said, "To create a pure atmosphere for this event, we won't accept any commercial collaboration. Mr. Wang, if you're truly anxious, you can start with online sales. Once Chongshan becomes more famous, you can start advertising."
Wang Hai sighed, "Seeing that Mr. Chen has made so much money, I'm really anxious!"
Zeng Wenjie said happily: "I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious yet."
Wang Haixin said, listen, is this what people in the world of the living say?
"Don't worry, Mr. Wang. We're our earliest partners and we won't forget you," Zeng Wenjie said. "It's easy to promote hometown specialties. I'll give you some ideas later."
Wang Hai breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you!"
After the dinner, everyone clamored to go to the second show. Zeng Wenjie was not very interested, so he asked Xue Lu to organize it.
The only two options are the KTV and the bath center. The greasy middle-aged group can't find any good place to go for a second show.
Zeng Wenjie and Feng Xiao left together.
"Now you can actually stand up. I think I can almost protect you?"
Zeng Wenjie turned his head and glanced at Mrs. Feng, who was wearing a professional suit, leather high heels and black stockings, and couldn't help but say something.
Feng Xiao shook his head and said, "I've just been watching you progress step by step from behind the scenes. It seems pretty good too. It makes me feel like I'm playing a development game."
Zeng Wenjie rolled his eyes and said, "Don't you long to display your talent and let more people see it?"
Feng Xiao said: "That will only bring me more trouble. Besides, I am very satisfied with my current life."
"Our Xiaoxiao is too indifferent." Zeng Wenjie couldn't help but touch her head and smiled helplessly.
"You should buy Zeng Mi a car too." Feng Xiao changed the subject, "I think she always wants to smash my W12!"
Zeng Wenjie nodded and said, "How about the XC90?"
Feng Xiao asked in surprise, "Why do you have to buy a Volvo?"
Zeng Wenjie said, "Don't worry about it. I'm only going to buy a Volvo for Zeng Mi. Even the gods can't change my mind."
Zeng Wenjie has his own obsessions, and it would be nonsense if there were any historical revisions.
"Then you should buy it for her as soon as possible. It's quite troublesome for her to commute every day. The most important thing is, I'm afraid that my W12 will be ruined by her one day." Feng Xiao shook his head and said.
"I almost want to destroy it." Zeng Wenjie said expressionlessly.
"Oh, I forgot you're driving a V8, this is my little brother." Feng Xiao immediately responded with a smile.
While talking, he walked back to the Chamber of Commerce headquarters.
Feng Xiao asked, "How are we going to spend over 80 million? Have you made a plan?"
Zeng Wenjie said, "We'll definitely open branches in first-tier cities first, then expand into franchises nationwide. The supply chain is almost integrated, so we can get started."
Feng Xiao nodded, then stared at Zeng Wenjie and asked, "Have you ever thought about what your ultimate goal is?"
Zeng Wenjie laughed and said, "First, get one of the top ten in the country, then help develop my backward hometown, and finally give Mu Qingyang's stepmother a slap in the face. I want to give her a slap that will be known nationwide."
Feng Xiao said: "Exuding domineering aura."
Zeng Wenjie said: "I'm talking about real smoking. If I don't really smoke, I won't be able to get rid of this anger."
Feng Xiao was surprised, then looked at him and said, "Then I'll wait and see."
Zeng Wenjie had a slightly arrogant smile on his face, and then he received a call from Ye Yixiuan.
"Zeng Mi and I got drunk in the hotel. Come over here." Ye Yixiuan said helplessly, her tone a little confused.
"Sister Xuan, why didn't you tell me that you were going back to Fengzhou?" Zeng Wenjie said.
I did meet Ye Yixiuan once last time, but she was in a hurry and we only met for a short while and had two drinks in the evening before it was over.
Ye Yixiuan has been busy managing the "Village Supermarket" recently and has little free time. She often goes back to Fengzhou to report on her work, but after reporting she has to rush back.
Today's infrastructure is not so developed, and it still takes time to travel between the two places.
Ye Yixuan said, "Well, I'm actually quite busy, but Zeng Mi asked me out, so I had to drink with her. However, she drank a little too much. Did you bully her?"
Zeng Wenjie thought it was probably because of what happened yesterday.
He asked for the address, then said something to Feng Xiao and took a taxi there.
Feng Xiao looked at his back and couldn't help but smile helplessly. No one could come up with any ideas about this kind of thing.
