Chapter 618: The Dilemma of Joy City
I attended the Internet Conference, brought "polite" greetings to the stepmother of the little rich woman, and saw the main building framework of the Pintuan Industrial Park in person.
Jiang Qin's trip to Shanghai was fruitful.
By this time, April has hurriedly ended and summer has quietly arrived.
The thesis defense for Linchuan University's graduating students will begin on May 13, which means that they don't have much time left before they actually graduate.
Jiang Qin decided to go back tomorrow, but before he left, some of the furniture that Qin Jingqiu and Feng Nanshu had ordered some time ago arrived one after another.
Among them was a wooden cradle, which was taken off the truck by the workers and intended to be sent to the master bedroom.
This made Jiang Qin feel like his body was going to be taken away from him as soon as he graduated.
"How can you buy something like this? Nonsense!"
The mover was carrying the cradle upstairs and was startled when he heard his words: "If you don't want it, we can return it on the spot. You sign the order and we will take it back with you."
Jiang Qin looked at him seriously and took out a pack of Chinese pistachios. "Although I won't use them, they've been delivered. Master, please carry them carefully."
"It's better to return it if you don't need it."
"I just like wasting money! Maybe... rich people all have little quirks?"
The mover looked at him in silence for a long time, as if he had been pricked, and then carried the cradle upstairs.
At this time, the rich girl also came running up. She was wearing black stockings today, matched with black leather shoes, a short skirt and a thin pink sweatshirt. She looked a little pure and a little sexy.
After watching the master install it with her own eyes, she couldn't help but go over and shake it. There was a sneaky look in her squinting eyes, but when Jiang Qin asked her what she was thinking about, she said, "I don't know, I'm a little stupid."
Feng Shihua and Qin Jingqiu also arrived shortly afterwards, feeling that they could not understand the way young people love.
"Feng Shirong is back?"
"Well, I heard that everything has been arranged, and Joy City is planning to start construction."
Feng Shihua knew yesterday that Feng Shirong had returned, but he never mentioned meeting Jiang Qin again.
Because he felt that it was unnecessary.
He used to expect Feng Shirong to pay more attention to Feng Nanshu after his return, and he also expected Duan Ying to regret her mistakes.
But later he discovered that caring about this thing had nothing to do with space or distance.
But it doesn’t matter anymore. If it belongs to my niece, someone will personally ask for it on her behalf. If it is not given to her, he will even snatch it away with a grimace.
The most important thing is that this person has the ability to force Duan Ying to regret her decision.
Feng Shihua folded his arms and looked ahead.
At this time, Jiang Qin was squatting in front of the cradle. He shook it twice and made a hissing sound from his mouth, as if he was burned by something.
"What is this side lock for?"
"You can put this board down and put Jiang Ainan on it, so it will be convenient to change her diaper."
As Feng Nanshu was talking, he laid the wooden board flat on the rear side. After he finished the operation, he looked at Jiang Qin and found that he had narrowed his eyes: "Didn't you say that your aunt insisted on buying this?"
The little rich woman nodded seriously and said, "Even if Auntie insisted on buying it, I couldn't stop her."
"Then how do you know how to use this?"
"I'm smart..."
"No, I don't think I'm smart either!"
Feng Nanshu was shocked after uttering just two words and immediately changed his words.
Jiang Qin looked at her and thought to himself, you seem like the silly girl in "Magic Phone", and you can change your mode at any time.
"Aunt, what is this side lock for?"
Qin Jingqiu walked over and took a look: "I don't know either, it looks good, right?"
Jiang Qin vomited and roared, then turned to look at Feng Nanshu: "Even my aunt doesn't know, only you know, little rich girl, you are so powerful now, you dare to pull anyone to take the blame."
"Anyway, I didn't have to buy it, and I didn't do any serious research, let alone ask the after-sales staff, nothing."
Feng Nanshu squatted on the ground and spoke silently.
Jiang Qin pinched her little face and said, "Lying really makes your nose grow longer!"
The little rich woman touched it and said: "You lied to me."
"It seems that you not only studied it carefully, but also consulted the salesperson."
Feng Nanshu narrowed his eyes: "It was all done by my aunt."
Qin Jingqiu: “?”
When she and Feng Nanshu went shopping that day, it was the little girl who ran forward as soon as she saw the cradle. She was wearing high heels that day and she could hardly catch up with her.
Jiang Qin was silent for a moment, then stood up, shook it twice more, couldn't help laughing, and shook it twice more, which seemed to create ripples in his heart.
Feng Nanshu squatted beside him, looking up at him: "You seem to have some disrespect for him."
"You seem to be a bit of a scoundrel."
Feng Nanshu looked up at him and saw the sunlight outside the window falling on his left shoulder. He couldn't help but squint his eyes and didn't refute.
She didn't dare to come to Shanghai before, and was even a little reluctant to come to see her aunt.
Because from the age of eight until she transferred to Jeju for high school, she lived in Shanghai and lived with her stepmother day and night.
So every time she came here, she always felt uneasy and wanted to go back quickly.
During the National Day holiday in 2008, the rich girl came to Shanghai to visit her aunt. It was because she was in a hurry to go back to find Jiang Qin that her aunt discovered the secret that she had a lifelong good friend.
Therefore, the prosperous Shanghai was not beautiful for her.
But she is not afraid now, because she knows that as long as there is a big bear, she will be protected unreasonably.
She can be happy and naughty without being afraid of being punished.
Both the uncle and aunt thought that his brother missed the meal just to vent his anger for them, but Feng Nanshu felt that maybe he just wanted to tell himself that there was no need to be afraid, because his brother could beat anyone like him.
The little rich woman blinked her watery eyes, then reached out and pushed the cradle to see it rocking.
In the afternoon, Jiang Qin went to Wanzhong Group and invited He Yijun and Qin Zhihuan to have dinner outside.
This had been agreed upon before, but many unexpected things happened along the way and the meal was delayed. Seeing that they were about to return to Linchuan, Jiang Qin decided to make up for the meal.
When Old He sees Jiang Qin now, he no longer calls him Mr. Jiang, but always calls him "brother relative".
“When will the main building of the group be completed?”
"By the end of the year, we have put all our efforts into the construction of your headquarters. Even the construction of Wanshanghui has been postponed."
Jiang Qin patted He Yijun on the shoulder: "We are all family."
He Yijun chuckled: "I was confused too. I thought you wanted to steal the steel bars. Poverty has limited my imagination. It turns out you want all of Wanzhong."
Jiang Qin frowned and looked at him: "Why are you making so many jokes? Are you going to take the postgraduate entrance examination?"
"Let's not talk about this anymore. I have something to tell you. Didn't you ask me to increase my stake in Dadi Pictures? I did, and then I also introduced IMAX theaters, giant screen theaters, and Dolby theaters, which I plan to use in Wanshanghui's theater system."
“Are we the first?”
“We are the first company in China to obtain full authorization, and this is mainly due to group buying.”
He Yijun said: "Those foreigners were reluctant to give us authorization at first, but later they relented when they found out that you were the shareholder behind the scenes."
Jiang Qin nodded: "I didn't expect they would be so discerning."
"This investment almost broke our cash flow."
"Don't worry, Lao He, there will be rewards."
Dadi Pictures is a domestic cinema chain company that has its own cinemas across the country and also participates in film investment.
When Dianping was planning to use a war of public opinion to bring down group buying, many well-known merchants suddenly stood up for them. It was later confirmed that they were brands of the Linchuan business group, including Dadi Cinema.
However, Dadi Cinema is a company in Shenzhen and has nothing to do with Linchuan, but it still got involved, which left many people puzzled.
But in fact, at the beginning of the construction of the first Wanzhong Shopping Mall in Shanghai, Jiang Qin told them the importance of cinemas, so Wanzhong Group invested a lot of money in Dadi Pictures.
If a shopping mall can introduce an IMAX cinema or giant screen projection, its ability to attract customers will definitely be extraordinary.
Especially in the following few years, the explosive growth of the film industry has brought a large amount of traffic to the comprehensive commercial entities. After all, "Wolf Warrior" has earned 5.7 billion yuan at the box office.
"Feng's Joy City project is currently in communication with Dadi Films, hoping to build an IMAX cinema on the top floor of their mall."
"This Mr. Feng, whom I have never met, seems to have some vision."
Qin Zhihuan entered the box carrying two bottles of wine. He was stunned when he heard this: "Isn't Mr. Feng, whom I have never met, your father-in-law?"
Jiang Qin narrowed his eyes: "He doesn't count!"
Qin Zhihuan chuckled and sat down on the chair: "Your father-in-law is not short-sighted, he trusts you more."
"What do you mean?"
"The Joy City project is almost a complete copy of our Wanzhong Shopping Mall in Kyoto. Of course, the plan to build a cinema on the top of the mall was also copied by them."
Jiang Qin picked up the bottle and poured a glass of wine for He Yijun: "What's next?"
He Yijun took the bottle and poured a glass for Qin Zhihuan, then said, "Later, group-buying food delivery suddenly entered the college student market and targeted mealtimes. It was rumored that you and Feng Group were not getting along. Dadi was very smart and immediately refused to cooperate."
"That's not what I meant."
"I know, but others may not think so. Otherwise, Joy City's investment promotion work would not be so difficult."
"What's going on here?"
"Think about it, most of the commercial brands in the current mainstream market are the ones you cultivated in the group buying war."
He Yijun counted on his fingers and said, "The most popular hotpot restaurant is Helilao, and the most popular milk tea shop is your good friend's Xitian, not to mention Xianhui Xiansheng and Beilan Dessert. These people are actually trying to figure out what you mean. It's very difficult to negotiate with Joy City."
The investment promotion for a large comprehensive shopping mall does not start after it is completed, but is carried out when construction begins.
When many shopping mall buildings are under construction, the brands that have successfully attracted investment will be printed on the barriers outside the construction site to attract more brands to join.
But as He Yijun said, the hottest brands in the market now were all incubated by Jiang Qin.
Jiang Qin also invested in some brands through the Jinsinan Foundation.
It is now rumored that Pintuan and Fengshi are not on good terms. It is very difficult for Joy City to discuss cooperation with them.
And when these popular brands cannot be negotiated, other brands will be even more hesitant, because without the traffic of those popular brands, where can the customers be diverted to them?
Jiang Qin's mouth twitched: "You make me sound like Daniel Wu who beat up his father-in-law..."
"You said so yourself."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this. I'm kind-hearted and can't listen to anything."
Qin Zhihuan stood up and poured him a glass of wine: "Wanshanghui will start recruiting investors soon. Mr. Jiang, when you return to Linchuan, call them to a meeting and ask them to send a manager to choose a location so that we can make a preliminary layout plan."
This is because the investment manager of Joy City is not here. If he were here, his scalp would definitely go numb and tears would flow when he heard these words.
They were trying to attract investors, but they couldn't reach an agreement with each company one by one. But what about Wanshanghui? They didn't have to run around, but just packaged the brands and brought them over directly.
It's true that those who are suffering from drought will die of drought, and those who are suffering from floods will die of floods.
Jiang Qin agreed after listening to it: "I have also been studying new business models in the business district recently, and I am planning to upgrade Xihanheqing 4.0. This time it is a bargain for Mr. He!"
He Yijun's mouth was crooked: "If you and Feng Nanshu get married, you will have 53% of the shares, and I'm the one working for you!"
Qin Zhihuan laughed innocently and then asked, "What is 4.0?"
"You guys know Burger King has Crazy Thursdays, right?"
"Yes, this marketing is awesome. Every Thursday, the customer traffic of Burger King doubles."
Jiang Qin nodded. "I plan to have Crazy Mondays for River Fishing, Crazy Tuesdays for Green Peppercorn Grilled Fish, Crazy Wednesdays for Western Grilled Meat, and finally add the other brands together for Crazy Fridays."
Qin Zhihuan's scalp tingled after hearing this: "Fuck, isn't that crazy? I'm afraid the money in consumers' pockets won't be enough for us to earn."
"That's right. Don't let any penny go unnoticed. This is the corporate culture of group buying. Moreover, each store in the mall has a maximum customer capacity. The remaining customers will be diverted to other stores. It's a win-win situation."
"What about the weekend?"
Jiang Qin waved his hand: "Weekends can't be crazy, otherwise the craziness won't be crazy anymore."
After listening to this, the two of them raised their glasses to toast each other. After three cups and two glasses of light wine, the night gradually deepened.
He Yijun worked in a shopping mall in his early years and met various suppliers, so he could drink a lot. Qin Zhihuan helped Qin Jingqiu do real estate, and his drinking capacity was even better.
Jiang Qin had never been drunk outside, but after the meal, he got drunk. His face turned a little red and he looked stupid.
He Yijun and Qin Zhihuan also drank a lot and could not drive the car, so they planned to stay here for one night. Anyway, the surrounding business district was full of business brands.
But Jiang Qin waved his hand and refused, saying he would not go no matter what: "I have to... go back to Shanti, you guys call me a taxi."
"Boss Jiang, let's go back tomorrow."
"No, no, I want the little rich woman..."
He Yijun was also drunk at this time, looking at the ceiling, not knowing who he was talking to, and he said, "I told you, they must get married, and I must be a worker."
