140, Zhou Mei 9 hours
In the sun, thousands of households always replace the old charms with new peaches.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year in 1995, Zhou Mei’s flagship store officially opened. It is not only Zhou Mei’s first, but also the first home appliance retail company nationwide.
At 7 a.m., all the staff gathered.
However, things seem to be wrong.
Many people here have experienced the "trend of people queuing up" when the Zhongshankou store opened. Looking at the sparse figures at the entrance of this flagship store, Liu Qingfeng couldn't help but start to get nervous.
The rent is nearly 10 million, and the cost of goods is even higher. Although these appliances can be returned, if this flagship store encounters a Waterloo, it will not only be a loss of economic benefits, but also a decline in brand effect, and the sense of identity among partners will also disappear.
However, Xiong Baizhou himself is very confident and always energetic.
Xiong Baizhou looked at his watch and it was still early at 7:30 in the morning.
"Don't worry, today is the first day of the Lunar New Year. You have to give the people time to eat dumplings. Everyone should go back to their respective positions to prepare."
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and several shopping guides near the door showed joy.
"Since someone is here!"
But soon they shook their heads and it turned out that it was just a lion dance team.
It’s good to have arrived at the lion dance team, at least there are sounds of gongs and drums outside, which doesn’t seem so cold.
Xiong Baizhou looked at the time and it was less than 8:30, but the sales of the flagship store were still 0.
"It should be soon." Xiong Baizhou was calm.
Sure enough, there were customers, but there were only one.
The middle-aged man in his forties just took a random look at the door, but the welcome lady was very enthusiastic and greeted from a distance: "Happy New Year, welcome."
The tone is loud and very enthusiastic.
"Okay, happy new year."
But the customer was startled by this excessive enthusiasm. After entering the store, hundreds of pairs of eyes focused on him alone.
"Scared, what's going on?" The customer hesitated whether to leave.
At this time, Chunxiao appeared.
"Big, brother, I'm complacent about the joy of getting a red envelope."
Chunxiao took out a red envelope from the money-catcher and stuffed it into the other party's pocket, and grabbed his arm: "You, you are our first customer, the new year and new atmosphere, I only charge 1,995 yuan for any electrical appliances you like."
The middle-aged customer who was about to withdraw after receiving the red envelope stopped.
"The big color TV is also 1,995 yuan?"
"yes."
"refrigerator?"
“It’s only 1995.”
“Where is vcd.”
"The whole thing is only 1,995 yuan." Chunxiao said with certainty.
Now all the management of Zhou Mei Electric Appliances is gathered here. In terms of position, Chunxiao is lower than many people here; but in terms of system, he is bigger than anyone else.
Because Xiong Baizhou has specially raised the rights of store managers in a system in order to influence the management.
The store manager only needs to be responsible for the store and has the right to do something that he thinks is right, as long as he can prove that the decision is correct afterwards.
Is Chunxiao's move correct?
Of course it is very correct.
He is witty, calm, courageous, and not cares about details. He even has the shadow of Xiong Baizhou.
Finally, the middle-aged man happily left with a VCD.
If you only judge the price of this vcd, it will naturally be a loss, but the significance of the first transaction is huge.
For flagship stores, a loss of profit of a few hundred yuan is simply a sweat.
"There is a great future for spring dawn!"
This is the first feeling of many people. Many management teams have a certain degree of understanding of the big boss Xiong Baizhou's work style. He likes this kind of smart and decisive decision-maker the most.
The first transaction was like a melting fire breaking through the ice. I just felt like a "slam". People seemed to be using magic, and kept pouring into this old street.
"Zhoumei Electric Appliances is here, hurry in and take a look."
"There are too many people inside, don't get separated."
"Wow, there are movies on the 5th floor, but there are lion dances outside. Which one should I watch?"
······
Xiong Baizhou looked at the time, at 9:30, it just started.
The employees of Zhoumei Electric Appliances are busy, and the flagship store is like a machine is slowly running. The more people come in, the better operation mechanism will make the machine run faster and smoother.
Even, it's about to explode!
"Boss, why is this different from Zhongshankou? I could clearly feel the decline in traffic at noon. Why do I feel that the number of people is still growing?"
Zhou Wei has made a lot of preparations and the entire accounting department has made a lot of arrangements, but it is still not enough.
Five floors.
All five floors were lined up, with one person waving his head from the end, without any gaps.
Zhou Wei felt that these people were crazy. They bought a bag of salt and did not blink when buying a refrigerator worth more than 8,000 yuan. After seeing the air conditioner, they were surprised to queue up to pay.
In the past, when I was in the Dongshankou store, many people gritted their teeth when buying VCDs. Why is it different here?
The most important thing is that they always look satisfied when they buy things.
Flagship store, is there any magic?
Xiong Baizhou smiled. The positioning of the flagship store is different from that of ordinary stores.
In ordinary stores, customers only have the awareness of "purchase".
But in the flagship store, customers are "enjoying" moments.
Moreover, on the festive day of the first day of the Lunar New Year, the people who have worked hard for a year have a desire to vent their desires. Besides, they can still watch movies when they are tired of shopping.
It's so comfortable!
Xiong Baizhou looked at the time and was just a climax at 1 noon.
"There will be more people in the afternoon. Your accounting department should pay attention to taking turns to have lunch." Xiong Baizhou reminded him before leaving.
"No!"
······
"Not good, no good, Brother Xiong, someone was squeezed and fainted again." Liu Daxiang hurried over to report.
Starting from the afternoon, as the traffic volume increases, there are also more unexpected things.
The wallet was stolen, the children were separated, and a few people had disputes because of queuing...
Several things happened when people were squeezed and fainted. Fortunately, Xiong Baizhou had an estimate and made some preparations, but even so, he was busy.
Xiong Baizhou came to the fainting middle-aged woman. This time she was quite serious and she was already foaming at the mouth.
"Daxiang, carry her to the hospital." Xiong Baizhou made a quick decision.
Hearing Xiong Baizhou's orders, Liu Daxiang, wearing Zhou Mei's electrical appliance uniform, raised the fainting customer without hesitation.
“Good!”
The fainted woman was surrounded by a large group of customers. Although they couldn't help, they still had to watch the excitement.
Seeing Zhou Mei Electrical Appliances employees carrying customers so undespicable, they didn’t know who was the one who was there. The onlookers applauded and praised them.
Xiong Baizhou looked at his watch and it was past 4 pm and it was not over yet.
