Chapter 360 Catering Business
Author: Bai Lian Zi Ren
Deputy General Manager Lin Xuefeng said with emotion: "Uncle Shao Liu cherishes talents, but he cherishes money even more! Otherwise, he would not have missed out on talents one after another. First there was Bruce Lee, then Xu Guanwen, and finally Boss Zou laughed at him that he only knows how to catch deer, but cannot take off.
horn'!"
Lin Xuefeng is an old man in the film and television industry, and he is very familiar with these grievances and entanglements between them. Shao Yifu's biggest weakness is that he is stingy and keeps money too tightly, so it is difficult to retain real talents.
Zou Wenhuai, Li Hanxiang, and Zhang Che, the pillars of Shaw Brothers in those days, all left him as the boss. This is good news for ATV. As long as they are willing to launch a silver bullet offensive, they can poach a group of people.
Zhou Liang Shuyi interjected: "In recent years, Uncle Shao has begun to be generous and spread his wealth to do good deeds! Do you know the reason?"
Seeing everyone's confused look, she said eloquently: "A few years ago, Mr. Shao was in poor health. He sought medical advice but couldn't get better. In the end, he had no choice but to seek help from an immortal master. After a friend recommended him, he found one.
A highly respected old immortal master.
After looking at his face, the old immortal master gave a solution to the problem. He said that those who have a lot of money, Shao Liushu, should not be too stingy, otherwise they will easily be burdened by the wealth. Only by sparing money and doing good deeds, and adding awe-inspiring righteousness to one's body, will ghosts and monsters not dare to do so.
It's a shame! Uncle Shao Liu followed the instructions and he recovered from his illness. I have no doubts about it from now on!"
Bai Zirui listened to these anecdotes with a smile on his face and thought to himself, no wonder there are Shao Yifu Towers all over the country in later generations. It turns out that there is such a thing.
Zhou Liangshuyi said: "Bai Sheng, I think that if ATV wants to compete with TVB, TV series alone are not enough. It must also innovate in other programs. A 30-episode TV series, no matter how high the ratings are, can only be broadcast for one month.
And TVB's "Happy Tonight" has been airing for more than ten years!"
She was like a powerful dragon crossing the river, joining ATV alone. When she first arrived, she always had to show off her talents to be able to control her group of people. After Bai Zirui negotiated with her to join ATV, he gave her several variety show ideas.
, such as "Who Can Be a Millionaire", which later became popular all over the world, and the longevity variety show "Prize Doorman" later hosted by Zeng Zhiwei on TVB.
Bai Zirui is not an expert in this field. He just gave an outline idea based on the programs he watched later. The specific implementation plan naturally needs to be handled by elite talents like Zhou Liangshuyi.
Zhou Liangshuyi looked around at her subordinates and continued: "There is a saying that everyone has heard, which is called knowledge creates wealth! Bai Sheng told me a program idea that fits this slogan very well..."
She took advantage of Bai Zirui, the big boss, and gave a brief introduction to the program planning of "Who Can Be a Millionaire" that she filled out based on Bai Zirui's ideas.
The people at the table are all elites in this field, so they can naturally judge the quality of a program. To put it bluntly, "Who Can Be a Millionaire" is a quiz competition with huge bonuses as bait.
But its subtlety lies in the fact that the all-encompassing questions contain knowledge and fun that can attract elites, while the lure of huge bonuses can attract ordinary people and achieve full viewership coverage.
By leveraging Bai Zirui's influence, Zhou Liangshuyi successfully established her prestige and established a strong woman attitude for her subordinates, which made everyone at ATV stop looking down on her.
Bai Zirui doesn't mind that there are overt and covert struggles among ATV's top executives. Only with competition can progress be achieved, and only then can he, the boss, control the overall situation. Of course, these struggles must not be based on the premise of harming the overall interests of ATV, especially now that ATV still needs to overturn pressure.
TVB is a big mountain above our heads.
Bai Zirui, the boss, was present, and people at other tables couldn't let go. He went to each table and toasted a glass of wine before saying goodbye and leaving in advance. The affairs of ATV had come to an end for the time being, and the next management was something that several senior executives of ATV needed to work on.
Yes, Bai Zirui only cares about their results.
In the conference room of the First Catering Company in Alexandra Building, Bai Zirui was very pleased to see the company team headed by Huo Jianning. In the past few months after the Spring Festival, the First Catering Company has opened restaurants in Wong Chuk Hang, Mong Kok, Yau Ma Tei, and Hung Hom.
, branches were opened in Kwun Tong and other places.
The average daily turnover of all stores is about 75,000 Hong Kong dollars, the daily profit reaches 45,000 Hong Kong dollars, and the monthly store profit exceeds 1.5 million Hong Kong dollars. At the same time, the cost is also high. The number of employees of the catering company has reached 860, and the monthly labor cost has also reached
The monthly cost of rent, water, electricity, transportation, tea, etc. is HKD 450,000.
The deposits of Pfister Catering Company in the HSBC account have reached HKD 5.2 million, the fixed assets have exceeded HKD 1 million, and the monthly income must be at least HKD 1.5 million.
Bai Zirui looked at the catering company's development report, nodded from time to time, and said approvingly: "Jianning, you did a great job. You lived up to my expectations of you."
Huo Jianning said modestly: "Bai Sheng, Miao praises it. This is all due to Bai Sheng's leadership."
After the Spring Festival, Bai Zirui appointed Huo Jianning as the deputy general manager and director of operations of the catering company. Huo Jianning was worthy of being a famous working emperor in later generations. He managed the catering company in an orderly manner and developed it steadily.
Bai Zirui asked: "Jianning, what are your plans for the next development of the company?"
Huo Jianning replied: "Bai Sheng, the company's next plan is to open stores in densely populated areas in Kowloon, such as Tsuen Wan, Sham Shui Wad, Kowloon Tong, Shatin, and Kai Tak Airport."
Bai Zirui nodded and said: "There are quite a few stores. The current branches are doing well, and the number of employees will exceed 1,000. Will the manpower be able to keep up with the opening of another branch?"
Liu Qiuli, director of the human resources department, replied: "It is easy for our company to recruit people now. As long as we post a recruitment advertisement in the branch, there will be many people applying, so we don't have to worry about lack of manpower which will affect the speed of opening the store.
Our catering company is already ranked among the top catering companies in Xiangjiang, and there are several burger restaurants that have followed suit and are losing money. Without comparison, there will be no harm."
Bai Zirui thought that if it was so easy to succeed, the formula of Coca-Cola would not be hidden so deeply. You must know that the formula of Coca-Cola has always been listed as the top secret of the Coca-Cola Company and has never been cracked.
The Coca-Cola formula has been stored in the vault of SunTrust Bank in downtown Atlanta. It is said that less than 5 people in the world know this formula, and in order to keep it strictly confidential, it is stipulated that two people who know the formula cannot fly on the same plane at the same time.
Bai Zirui said: "There are three things our catering company needs to do next: First, our demand for chickens is increasing, so we must build our company's farms and recruit relevant talents; the establishment of farms
It makes up for our shortcomings in future development and is enough to support the rapid expansion of the market.
Second, accelerate the layout of the Xiangjiang market and enter the mainland market as soon as possible.
Third, for the construction of a central kitchen, we will try to find a factory in South Bay, Hong Kong Island in the second half of the year to build a central kitchen and introduce advanced assembly line equipment."
