"Zhou Ahai, immediately, send someone to investigate what's going on."
Zhou Sanshao, who was still hungover, heard that his supermarket business was making less money. He felt so angry and sobered up a lot.
Zhou Ahai rolled and scrambled. His young master had a bad temper, so he didn't dare delay and turned to leave. Before he could even walk out the door, Zhou Sanshao's voice rang out behind him: "Zhou Ahai, take the supermarket manager to the living room and I'll ask him myself."
Three minutes later, the supermarket manager came to Zhou Sanshao's living room trembling.
Zhou Sanshao looked at the supermarket manager who was shaking all over in front of him. He was already full of anger, and he couldn't hold it in anymore. He walked around the room and calmed down after 5 minutes.
It was not the first time that the supermarket manager saw Zhou Sanshao get angry, but it was the first time he saw so many things smashed like this. He was even more scared. It seemed that after this, he would have to find a way to leave Zhou’s Supermarket. Zhou Sanshao was too scary, especially after the Zhou family split up, he became even more unscrupulous.
"Tell me, what happened?" Zhou Sanshao's voice was very cold, like ice in winter.
"Boss, all of this is to blame on Ling Qiqi Group. If they hadn't chosen to open a supermarket in Yau Ma Tei, our customers wouldn't have been snatched away." The supermarket manager had no choice but to let Ling Qiqi take the blame.
Zhou Sanshao had been in a daze recently and really didn't care about what had happened recently, so he looked at Zhou Ahai in confusion.
Zhou Ahai was also very discerning and took out the report on Lingqiqi Supermarket from a few days ago.
After reading it, Zhou Sanshao calmed down and asked the supermarket manager, "Manager Liu, you're also a veteran here. You've been with me since I took over, and it's been 10 years now. In recognition of your years of hard work, I'll give you one more month to increase sales. Do you have the confidence?"
Manager Liu really wanted to say that he didn’t, but he didn’t dare.
Zhou Sanshao looked at Manager Liu with an expression that said I am incompetent and wanted to get angry again, but Zhou Ahai pulled his clothes.
"Young Master, since Manager Liu didn't pay much attention, why don't you arrange for him to carry out the plan?" Zhou Ahai has always admired the young master's intelligence and talent. He believes that Young Master Zhou can do anything and is considered Young Master Zhou's loyal younger brother.
Zhou Sanshao is also very self-important. He developed the supermarket in Yau Ma Tei and gave up a lot of assets to get the supermarket when the Zhou family split up. He doesn't believe that he doesn't have a good marketing method to help the supermarket become popular again.
By the way, I can copy Lingqiqi Supermarket’s marketing ideas.
"Manager Liu, you can also contact the newspaper and place an advertisement in the newspaper. Just say that it is our tenth anniversary and we will give away eggs in the store. We will also hold a raffle when you buy something." Zhou Sanshao was very satisfied with his idea.
When Manager Liu heard Zhou Sanshao's idea, he felt it was good at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he found that there was a problem.
"Boss, I just did some calculations. If we follow Ling Qiqi's promotion, we estimate that we will need to spend yuan."
After hearing the supermarket manager's budget, Zhou Sanshao said generously, "That's not much money. I'll give you a budget of 300,000 for two weeks. I'll give you one week. I want to see the sales increase."
There is no other way. The boss has already arranged for good reviews, so I just have to carry it out well.
In this way, many Hong Kong people once again joined the ranks of receiving eggs and participating in the lottery while shopping.
Liu De looked at Zhou Sanshao's operation and didn't feel much. After all, everyone opened a supermarket, and there was nothing he could do to stop others from learning his methods.
But Lingqiqi Supermarket cannot remain passive all the time.
With Huo Qiqi's permission, the supermarket adopted measures such as discounts on purchases over a certain amount, issuing membership cards, and points membership, which attracted many customers back.
Two weeks passed quickly.
Zhou Sanshao was furious when he saw his supermarket's sales in the past two weeks. On the day of the event, the sales rebounded, but because there were too many people on the day of the event, a stampede occurred and several customers were injured. The supermarket was ordered to rectify the situation within three days and pay a sum of money in compensation.
"Manager Liu, how is Lingqiqi Supermarket doing now? Has its popularity been affected?"
"Boss, we've had people watching Lingqiqi Supermarket for the past two weeks. We've noticed that they had fewer customers on the day of our promotion, but their customer flow rebounded after they signed up for discounts, membership cards, and points membership. They also have plenty of parking spaces, separate lanes for people and cars, and a children's playground. We..."
Zhou Sanshao couldn't stand it any longer. Without waiting for Manager Liu to finish speaking, he started cursing angrily and kicked the man out.
"Third Young Master, I feel that this matter is also to blame on the old man. If he hadn't wanted to retire abroad, Ling Qiqi wouldn't have bought this warehouse area and converted it into a large supermarket." Zhou Ahai analyzed self-righteously.
"Zhou Ah Hai, I'm telling you for the last time, don't mention that man anymore. He gave half of our family fortune to our eldest son as so-called compensation. My brother and I only have as much as our eldest son combined. If he hadn't caused the family to split up, our Zhou family would still be one of the four largest families in Hong Kong. It's really infuriating."
After Zhou Sanshao expressed his resentment towards his father in one breath, he felt that his anger had subsided a little.
"Speaking of this, Lingqiqi Group is despicable. I invited a small department manager of theirs to dinner before, but he actually dared to refuse me. It's really like a tiger in the plain is bullied by a dog, and a phoenix with its feathers plowed is no better than a chicken." Zhou Sanshao said hatefully.
"Master, what a literary talent."
Zhou Ah Hai's compliment really pleased the Third Young Master. "Ah Hai, you really have good taste. No wonder you've been able to follow me for so long. To be honest, I also think I'm talented. If I were in ancient times, I would have at least passed the imperial examination and become a Jinshi."
"By the way, Ah Hai, send someone to check the suppliers of Ling Qiqi Supermarket. I want to cut off their supply channels." Zhou Sanshao decided to confront Ling Qiqi Group head-on.
Although Zhou Ah Hai often mindlessly praises Zhou Sanshao, he is very smart in other matters. "Master, if we really cut off Ling Qiqi Supermarket's supply channels, what if, I mean what if, Ling Qiqi Group is unhappy, will we be completely suppressed by Ling Qiqi Group? Especially their boss Huo Qiqi, who is even more formidable. You know, before the Zhou family split up, we might not have been able to deal with them."
Thinking of the consequences of offending Huo Qiqi, the self-righteous Zhou Sanshao swallowed nervously and consoled himself, "What are you afraid of? No matter how powerful Huo Qiqi is, she can't completely dominate Hong Kong. Let's just go head-to-head with Ling Qiqi Supermarket. If we really can't handle it, the worst that can happen is that we give up our business in Hong Kong and go to Country F to find my dad."
Zhou Ahai felt that his third young master was not as admirable as he once was. What was the problem?
