"I?"
Ma Xiaoshuai was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly and said, "Stop messing around."
Chen Fan shook his head: "I am serious."
Ma Xiaoshuai immediately yelled, "What a joke! I run a restaurant myself."
Chen Fan: "Your restaurant is now basically stable. You can hire a professional manager to help you run the store."
Ma Xiaoshuai was helpless: "Brother, please don't do this."
Chen Fan raised his glass to signal, and Ma Xiaoshuai quickly picked up his glass and clinked it with Chen Fan's.
After the two of them took a sip, Chen Fan put down the cup and spoke again.
"How much profit can your restaurant make every year?"
"I'm not asking about turnover, I'm asking about net profit."
Ma Xiaoshuai was a little embarrassed. "Well... prices have risen in the past two years, and the net profit has actually been compressed."
"Thanks to your last wedding, you gave me a lot of advertising, and then the traffic increased."
"This year should be the year with the highest net profit, about 100,000 yuan."
Chen Fan asked, "What about the past two years?"
Ma Xiaoshuai smiled bitterly: "The first two years were basically a loss."
Chen Fan analyzed: "Generally speaking, the net profit of opening a medium-sized restaurant is generally between 15% and 30%, of which about 20% needs to be deducted for rent. Of course, you bought the restaurant yourself, so you don't have to pay rent. Then you need to deduct 20% for labor and about 30% for food."
"I'll calculate based on your 25th percentile net profit. Your annual turnover must reach 30,000, and your net profit is only about 750,000."
Ma Xiaoshuai nodded: "Almost. Basically, that's it."
Chen Fan continued to analyze: "This also requires deducting the cost of your new store renovation and customer cultivation."
"The money you've made in the past two years has basically made back the money you spent on the renovation. Right?"
Ma Xiaoshuai nodded: "Yes."
Chen Fan continued to analyze: "How much did you spend to buy this restaurant?"
Ma Xiaoshuai told the truth: "I invested almost all my family savings, almost 10,000 yuan."
Chen Fan nodded: "That is to say, it will take another five years for you to earn back the money you spent on buying the restaurant. After five years, you can really start to make a profit."
Ma Xiaoshuai smiled bitterly: "Brother, don't say that. When you say that, I really want to cry."
Chen Fan shook his head.
"It's not to hit you, but to tell you a reality."
"If you want to run a restaurant for the rest of your life, it's not impossible, but there are too many unknown factors."
"These days, it's not easy to be in the physical industry. I just analyzed all this for you on the premise that your hotel can always maintain this level of customer flow."
"No one can guarantee what will happen in the future. If there is a slight mistake, it will be fatal to the physical industry, especially the catering industry."
Seeing that Ma Xiaoshuai looked depressed and about to cry, Chen Fan smiled and waved his hands.
"Of course, I'm not attacking you on purpose. I'm saying all this to tell you a fact. It's not that you can't make money by running a restaurant, it's just that it's too slow."
"Besides, your hotel is limited in scale and it's not a high-end hotel. Your annual turnover is limited. At most, I can give you a turnover of 10 million. This net profit is only 20,000 to 30,000 yuan."
Ma Xiaoshuai glared and said, "Brother, two or three thousand is still a lot?"
"You can't compare everyone to yourself."
Chen Fan shook his head.
"Two or three thousand is really not a lot. Besides, this kind of business is meaningless..."
Chen Fan looked at Ma Xiaoshuai and spoke again.
"I'm serious."
"Come and help me."
"The Supervisory Department is a sword hanging over the heads of everyone in the group."
"The Minister of Supervision is the Sword Holder. This person must be someone I absolutely trust. After thinking it over, I have absolutely trusted you by my side. I don't trust anyone else."
"So, I am going to hand over the Supervision Department to you. In the future, this department will be under my sole responsibility."
"Of course, if you can't let go of your restaurant, you can find a professional manager to help you manage it. It won't affect your ability to make money."
Chen Fan's tone was sincere.
"Brother, come here. I'll take you flying."
Seeing that Ma Xiaoshuai still looked embarrassed and confused, Chen Fan reminded him.
"When the Supervisory Department has completely cleaned up the internal atmosphere of the group, then we should prepare for the listing."
"If you join now, I can give you a share of the shares when the time comes."
Chen Fan raised his hand to stop Ma Xiaoshuai from speaking.
"My brothers, Guo Shuai and Jie Ge, both have shares. Once the stock is listed, they will be rich, but they will still have tens of millions or even hundreds of millions."
"Becoming a billionaire by then would be better than working so hard to keep this hotel, wouldn't it?"
"You are my best brother. It doesn't make sense for me to become successful without taking my brothers with me."
Chen Fan looked at Ma Xiaoshuai with a smile, then took out another cigarette and handed it to him.
"This is a rare opportunity, so don't rush to reject it. I suggest you go back and discuss it with your Song Linlin before giving me an answer."
"You have to think clearly. Now is the best time. Once the company goes public in the future, it's not impossible for you to join in again, but I want to give you shares at that time. It's not up to me alone to decide."
Ma Xiaoshuai took a deep breath.
"I understand. I'll think about it."
After the two men finished their business and drank almost enough wine, they went to meet up with the two beauties.
We went window shopping and had fun until about ten o'clock before we said goodbye and went home.
On the way back, Su Ruochu looked at Chen Fan and asked curiously.
"Are you going to talk to Ma Xiaoshuai about something tonight?"
Chen Fan was surprised: "Did you figure it out?"
Su Ruochu smiled complacently: "I'm not a fool."
"What do you want with him?"
Chen Fan smiled and said, "I invited him to work in the group. I plan to let him be in charge of the Supervision Department."
"Supervision Department?" Su Ruochu was a little interested: "That's the most important department of the group."
Chen Fan nodded: "Except for Xiaoshuai, I don't trust anyone else."
"This department can be handed over to him."
Su Ruochu asked curiously, "Does he agree?"
Chen Fan shook his head: "He said he would think about it."
Su Ruochu smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"That's really like his style."
Glancing at Chen Fan, Su Ruochu chuckled and said, "If it were someone else, they would have agreed on the spot."
"I can actually understand why Ma Xiaoshuai needs to consider this."
Chen Fan smiled and said, "You are very careful."
Su Ruochu: "This actually proves that Ma Xiaoshuai values his friendship with you."
"Xiao Shuai is a very pure person. He is the least greedy person among the friends you know."
"He doesn't care about your friendship, so he never asks you for money, and he never mentions wanting to work in the group."
"In his opinion, once you start working in the group, you will become a superior-subordinate relationship. With his personality, he may feel that he can't get along with you."
Chen Fan smiled and gave a thumbs up: "As expected of my wife. She is really smart."
"Actually, that's probably the reason."
"This guy has a bit of a weird personality, and he can't get over it. Look at Guo Shuai and Jie Ge. They work in different groups, but they still get along with each other privately."
"People are different." Su Ruochu said with a smile: "Xiao Shuai's personality just proves that you didn't make a mistake in his character."
"He is indeed suitable to be in charge of the Supervision Department."
