After the new store opened, Su Nuan accompanied Gu Chengfeng in rehabilitation training while making new project plans.
Construction has already started on the land purchased earlier. The current design plan only has residential buildings. In order to increase the selling points of the buildings, Su Nuan began to plan and improve the facilities around the property. The first step to be built is a chain supermarket.
A supermarket is a hypermarket that originated in Country A in the 1920s. It is popular with customers for its convenient shopping environment, rich variety of goods, low prices and efficient services. Today's department stores are all state-owned enterprises, and there are very few of them, which makes it difficult to meet the living needs of people in Shanghai. Moreover, due to the scarcity of materials, the sales staff in state-owned department stores are extremely arrogant and have a very poor service attitude.
The reasons why Su Nuan planned to open her own chain supermarket were, firstly, the huge market demand, secondly, to increase the cost-effectiveness of the developed real estate, and thirdly, to create a one-stop large shopping supermarket like in later generations, laying the foundation for opening a chain supermarket in the future.
The characteristics of supermarkets are large scale, low cost, small profits but quick turnover and self-service.
The prerequisite for implementing this plan is to find suitable suppliers. Su Nuan carefully sorted out and recalled her own network of contacts to see if there were any suitable suppliers. She had previously met several businessmen with product channels through banquets, but she had only a general understanding of them at the time, and did not have a detailed and in-depth understanding. Moreover, what the supermarket needs is a department store with a complete and rich variety of goods, so she must have some powerful suppliers.
Thinking of this, Su Nuan thought of a person, Uncle Xiang, the president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce. Perhaps he could help her find a supplier with good strength.
Su Nuan picked up the phone and dialed the Xiang family's number. After the call was connected, she learned that the person was not at home but was at the Chamber of Commerce. Su Nuan then dialed the Chamber of Commerce's number and heard the voice of President Xiang.
"Uncle Xiang, I'm Su Nuan, sorry to bother you."
"It's Xiao Nuan, it's okay, even if you don't look for me, I'm going to look for you too."
"What do you want from me?"
"The Su Group is developing rapidly and is well-known in the Shanghai business community. We, the old guys, would like to invite you to join our chamber of commerce. I wonder if you are interested?"
"Uncle Xiang, I'm grateful for the respect shown by all the seniors. However, I haven't made any achievements yet, so I'm afraid I'm not qualified."
"Hahaha, Xiao Nuan, you're being too modest. Judging from the current development trend of the Su Corporation, it has great potential in the future. We are very optimistic about the future of the Su Corporation. Now that you've just returned to China, your network resources are relatively scarce. After joining the Chamber of Commerce, you can quickly establish a wide range of personal connections, broaden your business information channels, and strengthen business cooperation with various companies, which will help accelerate the development of the Su Corporation."
"Uncle Xiang, such a kind gesture is hard to refuse. I, a junior, would be disrespectful to refuse it."
"Okay, there's a dinner at the Chamber of Commerce tomorrow. Come over and get to know everyone. I heard you're dating someone, so come over tomorrow to have some fun. I'll have someone send you an invitation later."
"Okay, Uncle Xiang."
After hanging up the phone, Su Nuan smiled happily. Just when she dozed off, a pillow was delivered to her door. It seemed that the supplier issue was about to be resolved.
Su Nuan hummed a little tune and went to find Gu Chengfeng.
"Cheng Feng, the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce is having a dinner party tomorrow night. Will you accompany me?"
"Well, are you so happy to be at the dinner party?"
"Yes and no. I plan to open supermarkets in several buildings I'm developing. I was worried about suppliers before, but Uncle Xiang invited me to join the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce has many membership channels, so the supplier issue seems to be resolved."
Gu Chengfeng looked at Su Nuan with a doting smile.
"By the way, Cheng Feng, I bought you a few dresses when I bought them before. The dresses are in my room. Let's go try them on."
"good"
Su Nuan pulled Gu Chengfeng directly to her room, opened the closet and found it was full of dresses, and next to the dresses were several suits and dresses.
Su Nuan took out a suit from the closet, tried it on Gu Chengfeng, tried it on several other suits, and then took out two and stuffed them into Gu Chengfeng's arms.
"Go to your room and change, try it."
Gu Chengfeng obediently took the clothes and went back to his room to try them on.
Soon, Gu Chengfeng, wearing a well-fitting suit, knocked on Su Nuan's door. Su Nuan opened the door and took a look.
He was wearing a dark suit with a well-tailored jacket that highlighted his solid shoulders and toned chest and abdominal muscles. His tall figure made him look even more majestic against the backdrop of the suit, and his straight trousers highlighted the slender lines of his legs. After more than a month of recuperation, his skin had become much whiter.
Su Nuan looked at Gu Chengfeng and muttered to herself, if he wore gold-rimmed glasses, he would definitely look like a gentleman villain.
Afterwards, Su Nuan asked Gu Chengfeng to change into several suits to satisfy her visual craving.
On the second day, after Su Nuan and Gu Chengfeng got dressed, Johnson drove them to the dinner. The Chamber of Commerce chose the Shanghai Hotel as the venue for the dinner. Su Nuan had stayed in this hotel since she returned to Shanghai.
After the car stopped, Gu Chengfeng helped Su Nuan get out of the car. Su Nuan held Gu Chengfeng's arm, and the two entered the banquet hall under the guidance of the waiter.
The handsome man and beautiful woman attracted the attention of many people after entering the banquet hall. Su Nuan looked around and walked towards President Xiang.
President Xiang saw the two of them when they entered the banquet hall. He looked at them coming over, said goodbye to his friends around him, and walked over to greet Su Nuan and the others.
"Xiao Nuan, here you are. Is this your partner?"
"Uncle Xiang, this is my boyfriend Gu Chengfeng. Chengfeng is the president of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce and the head of the Xiang family."
Gu Chengfeng behaved very modestly. Before Su Nuan, Gu Chengfeng had roughly said that the Xiang family and the Su family were old friends. When he saw President Xiang, he directly greeted and shook hands with President Xiang respectfully as a junior.
