Through the wealth life

Chapter 468
Li Guangyu didn't pay too much attention to Rong Zhixin's persuasion. He is now paying attention to the situation of the supermarket group, which is the more important thing for him now.

Although the previous plan was perfect, there were still many problems yesterday, which need to be resolved by the senior management of the supermarket group, especially on the logistics side. Out of stock occurs.

Fortunately, these problems are not big. Li Xuelan and others can slowly solve the problem of cooperation between supermarket stores, headquarters and logistics.

Li Guangyu is quite satisfied with the results of the opening of so many stores yesterday. In terms of customer flow, although Hengyu Supermarket is newly opened, it has more customers than Wellcome and Watsons.

And the convenience store gave Li Guangyu a big surprise. Although it didn't make money, the shipment volume was quite large.

Li Guangyu also knew that this was because many citizens wanted to stockpile goods, so they shipped so much yesterday, which was also one of the reasons for the untimely delivery of goods from the warehouse and logistics and transportation yesterday.

However, the bosses of those small and medium-sized supermarkets are very cold-hearted. Some bosses who have the foresight have sold them at a discount a few days ago, and they are clearing their warehouses. Some want to suffer a little bit, and see if a few big supermarkets can close their stores in a short time. The boss of such a discount promotion was completely hit yesterday.

Usually there is still some traffic, but yesterday they sold very few things, and there were very few customers who came to patronize.This left them tormented, wondering what they should do next.

In Li Ka-shing's office in Hutchison Whampoa, he was listening to the report of the chairman of Watsons on the sales of Watsons yesterday.

Zhang Shengjie said: "Sheng Li, our customer flow has not been impacted by Hengyu Supermarket and Wellcome for the time being, but our group's profit is almost zero, and the difference is too big before, which is equivalent to It is serving the citizens of Xiangjiang for free."

Zhang Shengjie felt very uncomfortable. Watsons had made a lot of profits in the past. If this continues, it will be very ugly in the subsequent financial reports, which is not good for his resume.

If he himself was thinking of changing jobs, he would immediately look down on him by a few levels when he saw the profitability of Watsons led by him.

Li Ka-shing doesn't care about the profits of supermarkets at this time. He also knows the situation of those small and medium supermarkets that did not follow the [-]% discount. Can wait to close down.

Li Ka-shing said: "Don't complain to me now. Li Guangyu and I don't care whether Watsons is profitable or not. You just need to maintain our customer flow. At this moment, you think we Watsons won't keep up." Can it still survive?"

Zhang Shengjie also knew that since Li Guangyu started a price war with Wellcome, other supermarkets in Xiangjiang would either follow or die, and now the fight is all about stamina.

Fortunately, the Li's consortium did not choose to hurt others with their own interests. At least they will not lose money. The three supermarkets can maintain normal operation, but the small and medium supermarkets are suffering.

Zhang Shengjie said: "Li Sheng, director Li Xuelan didn't give us a clear end time. I don't know how you think about it. It's a harm to you if you delay it for too long. After all, a company that is not profitable is not good for you. Makes too much sense."

Li Ka-shing naturally knows that going on like this is actually not good for him. After he is betting, he believes that he wholeheartedly supports him to suppress Wellcome this time. At that time, Hengyu Supermarket Group will take Watsons to expand in other places. At that time, all losses will be made up.

Just relying on the losses of these stores in Xiangjiang during this period, how can it compare with the future profits? Besides, this time, I can’t get out if I want to. In this situation, unless he closes Watson’s, he can only grit his teeth and stick to it. .

Li Ka-shing said: "Chairman Zhang, you don't need to consider these for our shareholders. What you have to do now is to maintain the operation of Watsons for me and ensure that our customer flow will not be lost."

Li Ka-shing was a little unhappy about this. Although Zhang Shengjie was the chairman of Watsons, he should be responsible for the company's development and profits, and he could make some suggestions to himself.

But both himself and Li Guangyu clearly expressed to him that they don't care about profits for the time being, and he repeatedly mentioned these meaningless things.

As soon as Zhang Shengjie heard Li Ka-shing's words, he knew that he had lost his composure, and immediately replied: "Li Sheng, I will maintain the development of our Watsons and ensure that our customer base will not be lost."

Li Ka-shing said: "You go back and continue to pay attention to the situation of Watsons. At the same time, you should also pay attention to the news from Hengyu Supermarket and Wellcome."

After Zhang Shengjie replied to Li Ka-shing, he left the office.

After coming out, Zhang Shengjie's face darkened.He was very unhappy in his heart, especially he was quite dissatisfied with his current position in the group.

Especially thinking of Chen Linwen who passed here, he had to listen to his own command at the time, and now he is the vice president of the group, but he is still standing still, and he can't even get into the board of directors of the group.

This time, he asked himself to listen to the arrangement of the senior management of Hengyu Supermarket. He was even more unhappy when he thought of it. He thought that his ability was much stronger than that of the senior management of Hengyu Supermarket Group, but Li Ka-shing and Li Guangyu turned a blind eye to him. .

And what makes him happy is that his ability can still be seen by others. Just two days ago, Henry Keswick, the chairman of the board of directors of Jardine, contacted him secretly. As long as he went there, he would immediately As the chairman of Wellcome Supermarket, he will also serve as a director of Jardine Holdings Group.

For such an invitation, Zhang Shengjie's heart was already moved. He replied there and gave him a week to think about it.He wanted to see if Li Ka-shing would take his own opinion seriously. Obviously this time Li Ka-shing didn't pay attention to what he said.

He has already made a decision in his heart, and he doesn't want to be under the dual jurisdiction of Hutchison Whampoa headquarters and the president of Hengyu Supermarket Group in this position.

Zhang Shengjie looked back at Li Ka-shing's office, then turned his head and strode away.He made up his mind to lead Wellcome, Hengyu and Watsons to a big battle. He knew that Wellcome had the support of HSBC and Standard Chartered, and had enough financial resources to deal with Hengyu and Watsons.

He really wanted to see the expressions of Li Ka-shing and Li Guangyu regretting that he had left, and at the same time let Hengyu's senior management know that their abilities were not at the same level as his.

Li Ka-shing didn't know anything about Zhang Shengjie's decision. He was now thinking about the development of Hutchison Whampoa and Cheung Kong. There would definitely be problems in the property market in Xiangjiang this year. He could sense it from Li Guangyu's series of actions.

And he wants to try to reduce his group's losses as much as possible in this turmoil, and at the same time prepare some funds to operate behind Li Guangyu. He believes that Li Guangyu will definitely buy bottoms later, and he doesn't want to let go of such an opportunity .

Li Ka-shing also believes that Xiangjiang's future is promising, and it is worth taking a gamble. Besides, with Li Guangyu in front, he believes that this time he will not lose money.
