National Tide 1980.

Chapter 242

The self-inflicted humiliation Manager Sha was so angry that he wanted to die.

He still had to compromise to satisfy Ning Weimin's material requirements.

On the other hand, Ning Weimin managed to use Manager Sha to play the role of killing chickens and scaring monkeys.

Because it was precisely out of fear of this incredible result that Manager Sha tamed him inexplicably, and no one in the company dared to make trouble for Ning Weimin.

This allowed Ning Weimin to concentrate on his work, and achieved good results quite efficiently.

Negotiations on the site of franchised stores, for example, are progressing well.

Except that the Jingcheng Hotel is a relatively special place because of its special significance, so we couldn't talk about it.

The negotiations between the Capital Airport and the Jianguo Hotel, which is about to be completed, are basically going smoothly.

With the help of Ning Weimin, Song Huagui represented Peel Caton Company, and in the end, they rented nearly 6000 square meters of space in these two places at an annual rent of about [-] yuan, which was used to establish a franchise. shop.

As for the sculpture art exhibition in the Zhai Palace, Ning Weimin did not invite many media due to the cost of publicity.

But because of his orderly organization and high artistic level of his works, the theme of the art exhibition and the architecture of the fasting palace are correspondingly interesting.

This relatively low-key opening event was a great success because of its good reputation passed on from person to person.

Unexpectedly, in the next few days, it attracted many media who heard the news to make supplementary reports, which gained quite a sensational social effect.

As a result, in less than half a month, the park's ticket sales have increased by [-]%.

As a result, the gallery sold more than [-] sets of clothing.

It was a complete surprise.

But the more far-reaching significance lies in the gratitude and goodwill of the teachers and students of the Department of Sculpture, as well as the feedback from the art world that this activity has aroused.

Again, in the current society where the economy is still quite backward, the situation of art workers is too embarrassing.

This is especially true for the teachers and students of the sculpture department who have very little social demand and are completely unpopular.

The Sculpture Department Competition held by Pierre Carton Company undoubtedly provided teachers and students of the Sculpture Department of the two universities with an opportunity to gain both fame and fortune.

Although the bonus is not too much, all of them add up to only a few thousand yuan.

But compared with the situation in the past when they had almost no possibility of obtaining material rewards through professional skills, it is already very valuable.

For example, if the student wins the third prize, it will be [-] yuan, and the teacher's specially invited work will also be [-] yuan.

This is enough to support their creation without distraction for a year.

In addition, the participating works can also get the most authentic feedback from the visitors, and have the opportunity to be exposed by media reports.

This is of course a more rare benefit for anyone who is interested in engaging in art for life.

So before the competition was over, the teachers and students of the two colleges petitioned the Pierre Caton Company one after another.

They all expressed the hope that this art exhibition can be held all year round, even once every few years.

It didn't even take long for the news to spread, causing "Jinmei", "Chuanmei" and "Hangmei" to speak out in the newspapers.

Several well-established art academies all shouted from the air one after another, saying that Peel Carton had indeed done a good thing.

It's a pity that it is too limited and the scale is a bit small, which doesn't seem to match the status of an internationally renowned large company.

They very much hope that they can also participate, and hope that Peel Carton can make this art exhibition into a national perennial exhibition.

Then a discussion in the social field was triggered, and a series of new questions were raised.

Question whether it is appropriate for such an art exhibition to be held by a foreign-funded enterprise, whether it is authoritative, and whether it can guarantee fairness.

Of course, for such a question, no matter how fierce the debate is, there will be no answer.

But I have to say that after the event was held, the actual effect of the publicity was quite good.

Unexpectedly, the Peel Carton company actually made an appearance nationwide, at least the major art academies across the country know about this company.

And since then, more and more visitors have come to the Zhaigong Exhibition Hall.

Not only were some people attracted by the sculptures, but there were also wealthy households among the common people who came to the exhibition hall to buy clothes after knowing the name of Pierre Carton.

According to Ning Weimin, if this momentum can be maintained for a long time.

In the future, the exhibition hall can at least maintain a balance of income and expenditure, and it will no longer be a business that simply loses money.

So naturally, after the event ended, Ning Weimin asked Song Huagui for real power.

To be honest, Ning Weimin never had such a plan.

He's actually quite lazy, and he's always just thinking about spending some leisure time on his one-acre three-point land.

But Manager Sha deliberately used his small power to make things difficult for him and trip him up.

And he himself is currently worrying about his personal financial difficulties.

The combination of these two things made him understand the importance and benefits of power with a painful feeling.

I also understand the truth that a man should not be without money.

Then in order not to be stuck by anyone casually.

Also in order to be able to take advantage of the company's glory and get some benefits for myself.

His thoughts also underwent a 360-degree change, and he decided to become a real power faction that no one should underestimate.

As for his specific requirements, one is that he hopes to be able to control the franchise store management rights of the airport and Jianguo Hotel.

I want the company to take full responsibility for the operation of the two franchised stores like the Zhai Palace Exhibition Hall.

The second is that he still wants independent financial power.

It is hoped that the company can send financial personnel to make independent accounting, and he will decide where and how to spend the money.

In the future, we will only report to the company once a quarter.

Conversely, there are two promises he can make to the company.

One is that he guarantees that the two franchised stores, together with the exhibition hall, will be profitable in the year they open.

The net profit of the three places is not less than 30 yuan.

Second, he decided to expand the sculpture art exhibition into a national perennial exhibition.

However, he will not ask the company for support for the relevant expenses in this regard, and will be borne by the income of the exhibition hall.

Needless to say, these proposals of Ning Weimin are quite pragmatic.

And he was originally a meritorious minister who made suggestions.

In addition, Song Huagui recognized Ning Weimin's ability and trusted him as a person.

So it should be taken for granted that Song Huagui should agree to Ning Weimin's request.

It's a pity that this kind of power transfer will never be so smooth.

It's impossible for no one to fight.

What's more, Song Huagui's biggest advantage is also the biggest disadvantage, that is, he pays more attention to affection.

She expressed affection to Ning Weimin, and the same to other subordinates.

How about family management?

As a result, Zou Guodong, the head of the operation department, stood up openly and raised objections, which immediately made Song Huagui feel embarrassed.

Zou Guodong pointed out that Ning Weimin was too young.

Although he has great ideas, he lacks actual business marketing experience, and his ability is not enough to directly manage the two franchised stores.

Moreover, these two stores are very important to the company, which will determine whether this business model can be established and whether it can be used as the company's main profit development direction.

So to be on the safe side, it's better for him, the head of the operation department, to be in charge.

It has to be said that this opinion is quite high-sounding, and it has captured Ning Weimin's greatest weakness.

But the more he was like this, the more Ning Weimin didn't want to back down.

One retreat, one step at a time.

Why should I plant trees and let you pick peaches?

Ning Weimin proposed the idea of ​​franchised stores as his own suggestion, as there has never been such a business model in mainland China.

If Zou Guodong were to be in charge, he would also have disadvantages.

Since there is no basis for the words, it is better for one person to have a store, and two people to engage in internal competition, which is better.

At that time, each will be in charge of their own affairs. After a period of time, let the companies evaluate their respective business performance and business model, and then determine the final person in charge.

This solved Song Huagui's problem. She thought it was good, and Zou Guodong certainly had no objections.

Then the subsequent debate is who is in charge of which store.

There is no doubt that the airport seems to be much better. Not only is the passenger flow stable, but it can be renovated and ready to enter the store now.

The Jianguo Hotel is still finishing the project, and it will take at least two months to be renovated, and it is not yet sure how many people will be there after opening.

But unexpectedly, Ning Weimin was very generous and offered to let Zou Guodong be in charge of the airport, and it would be good for him to manage the franchised store of Jianguo Hotel.

So there is no problem, and the debate on this matter ends here.
