Rebirth of the courtyard, the start is 80s

Cao Zhiqiang didn't believe Xu Huizhen's compliment at all.

And from Xu Huizhen's eyes and expression, Cao Zhiqiang also knew that the other party must have misunderstood him and thought that he was attracted to Xu Jingping.

But then I thought about it, it was okay for the other party to think so.

If he didn't think so, he might not be able to spend it if he wanted to send money to Xu Jingping in the future.

Anyway, Cao Zhiqiang figured it out. With Xu Jingping's character, if he directly gave her money, she would definitely not accept it.

At this time, someone needs to persuade her.

There is a high probability that Xu Jingli will not be able to do it. After all, judging from some signs, she seems to have a good impression of herself.

Therefore, if Xu Jingli is asked to persuade her sister to accept her kindness, even if she does it reluctantly, the effect will not be good.

This Xu Huizhen is different.

Xu Hui is really Xu Jingping's mother, and she obviously loves money.

As long as she shows enough strength, she, as a mother, should not object to her giving Xu Jingping benefits.

And even if it doesn't work out in the end, she, as a mother, would probably be happy to spend money on Xu Jingping.

As a small businessman, you must be a bastard who doesn't make money when you are cheap.

Thinking of this, Cao Zhiqiang decided not to waste time with Xu Jingping, but instead started with Xu Huizhen.

As long as Xu Huizhen is dealt with, it will not be difficult to deal with Xu Jingping.

"Auntie, you are joking." Cao Zhiqiang smiled at Xu Huizhen, "It's not that I want to praise your second daughter, but I think she has great potential and is someone who can really do great things.

This kind of person, even without me, will get ahead sooner or later.

After all, it is gold and sooner or later it will shine. "

"Hahaha." Xu Huizhen covered her mouth and smiled, "Oh, President Cao really knows how to praise people."

Cao Zhiqiang smiled again: "Well, let's not talk nonsense. Since I am optimistic about your daughter, what do you think of this?

As for the new hotel, you will contribute 500,000 yuan and I will contribute 5 million yuan, and then you will personally own 10% of the shares, auntie.

At the same time, I will serve as the chairman of the board, your aunt will serve as the general manager of the hotel, and Xu Jingping will temporarily serve as the deputy general manager.

Three years later, based on Xu Jingping's performance, the board of directors will vote to decide whether Xu Jingping will serve as general manager.

During the voting, I personally will not take a stand. It all depends on your rating.

In terms of specific operations, I will not directly intervene unless you need my help.

Of course, this doesn't mean that I don't care about anything.

Before the hotel opens, I will give the hotel a quota to be a foreign-related hotel, so that the hotel can become a real foreign-related hotel.

I have some connections with the Peiping Design Institute. I can ask experts from the design institute to help with hotel decoration issues.

By the way, I will also discuss with my friends in Xiangjiang and ask them to hire a group of professional hotel managers from Xiangjiang to help you manage the hotel, improve the quality of management, and train your service staff.

When you all learn the advanced experience there, then it will be entirely up to you to take over.

In other words, what I do is preparation before opening.

Once the hotel opens, you have the final say on how it will be run.

However, don't think that this is okay.

I will arrange supervisors to supervise your operations, and the accountant and cashier must also be ours.

Therefore, you'd better not do anything illegal.

After all, the hotel I want to build is a serious business. If there are any internal violations, if it is serious, you will be jailed. "

"How is that possible?" Xu Huizhen immediately laughed and said, "Don't worry, I will never do such a thing that pokes your spine."

"I believe you, Auntie." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly.

After a pause, Cao Zhiqiang said again: "Auntie, you don't have to worry about any autonomy issues.

Actually, the reason why this first hotel was affiliated with a publishing house and became a state-owned enterprise was determined by the current situation.

After all, given the current situation, it is easier for state-owned foreign-related hotels.

Furthermore, you have no relevant experience before, so it is still very beneficial to go to a hotel as a state-owned enterprise to practice.

But don't be discouraged.

Times are moving forward, and policies will inevitably change.

When the private economy becomes more prosperous, I will open more foreign-related hotels. By then, I will be able to operate hotels as private enterprises.

We can even become bigger and stronger and turn the hotel into a brand chain, just like the Marriott Hotel Group.

What? Never heard of Marriott? It doesn't matter, have you heard of Hilton Hotel Group? Never heard of it?

Have you heard of the Peninsula Hotel? "

After confirming that Xu Huizhen had heard of Peninsula Hotel, Cao Zhiqiang breathed a sigh of relief.

Also, at this time, Chinese people have very little information and know very little about large foreign hotel groups.

So probably not many people know about Marriott Group or Hilton Group.

On the other hand, some people in Beijing know about the Peninsula Hotel in Xiangjiang.

Because at this time, the management team of Jianguo Hotel in Peking was composed of Peninsula Hotel staff from Xiangjiang.

Because of this, currently, among the hotels in Beijing, only Jianguo Hotel has the highest service quality.

In comparison, even the more famous Peking Hotel is not as good as Jianguo Hotel in terms of service quality.

There is no way, the service team of Peking Hotel is still using the same old system. Compared with the management team introduced from Peninsula Hotel, the service quality is indeed far behind.

This is mainly a question of concept, not a question of method.

Service methods and methods can be learned, but if the concept cannot be changed, the service quality will not improve.

The reason is very simple, that is, the employees of these traditional hotels are basically tenured and cannot be fired casually unless they make a major principled error.

This also means that the immediate superiors of these employees, such as managers, no longer have the right to fire employees, nor do they have the right to perform performance appraisals. In this case, who among the employees below will be afraid of you?

They are no longer afraid of you, how do you still expect to be able to manage them well? How high do you expect their service to be?

As a result, the service attitude of these people is really hard to describe.

Take Cao Zhiqiang as an example. In the early days, Cao Zhiqiang stayed at the Peking Hotel because it was closer to the house he bought along the street in Wangfujing.

But the service attitude there is not that good.

Later, it was Cao Zhiqiang who gave him enough money, a deposit in advance, a letter from his employer, and a large tip privately to the front desk, which allowed him to successfully check into the Peking Hotel.

However, when he went to live in Jianguo Hotel, there would be no such trouble at all. He only needed to pay a deposit and he could check in directly.

Moreover, the waiters at the Jianguo Hotel, because they were from the Peninsula Hotel, did not have the consciousness of looking down on others. Even if they did not know Cao Zhiqiang's specific identity, they were very kind to him and served him with a smile throughout the process.

This is not the case at Peking Hotel. The service industry there is basically poker-faced and there is no service with a smile at all.

The Peking Hotel is already one of the best hotels in Beijing. It is like this here. You can imagine the service attitude of other hotels.

Cao Zhiqiang was not angry about this, because he knew that nowadays, let alone the Peking Hotel, it was actually pretty much the same everywhere.

Only with the deepening of reform and the reform of the service industry can these shortcomings be gradually improved.

Later, in the service industry, there was a famous saying, "The customer is God."

On the surface, customers are God, and we want to improve service quality and make customers feel at home.

But in fact, the subtext of this sentence is that those who serve God must keep a low profile.

Therefore, there is no real fairness. It just depends on which position the person is happy.

If the people here are happy, the people over there will be unhappy, and vice versa.

However, compared to the era when the waiter was the uncle, Cao Zhiqiang preferred the era when the customer was the god.

At least, in that era of capital where customers were God, only rich people like him could get higher enjoyment.

Otherwise, just like now, you can't get enough happiness even if you have money, and you still make shitty money.

Cao Zhiqiang has always felt that improving service quality is actually to stimulate everyone's desire to consume.

Only when God is happy with being served well will he be willing to spend money.

Money is spent, and when there is no money, we have to work hard to make money.

In this way, desires rise, consumption increases, and the economy naturally improves.

Therefore, the essence of the market economy is actually to stimulate people's consumption desire and let them satisfy their own consumption desire.

If everyone lies down, lowers their desires, and does not want to enjoy themselves, then who will consume the various consumer goods produced?

With no one consuming, production will fall, which will be reflected in an economic downturn or even collapse, and then there will be an economic crisis.

The same is true in this era when housing prices have not yet risen.

Although people no longer have to spend money on houses, they still have to spend money on other things.

For example, home appliances and furniture, high-end restaurants, and luxury hotels.

In this case, no matter how expensive the rooms in foreign-related hotels are, there are still many people who are willing to spend half a year's income to give it a try.

Even if you have to work hard for half a year or even a year after experiencing it, you will have the talking points and you can brag about your awesomeness to others for at least a year in the future, which is worth it.

If you are in the 21st century and you are asked to spend half your annual income to stay in a high-end hotel for one night, this is simply a disease.

In short, this is the best of times.

Because there are so many opportunities, it can be said that there are opportunities to make money everywhere.

Of course, the more you make, the more you lose.

Anyway, when it comes to going to sea, everyone depends on their ability.

Whatever you make is yours, and any loss is yours, too. Your employer will not cover the costs for you.

"Wait a minute, President Cao, I think I understand."

After being slapped with a piece of cake by Cao Zhiqiang, Xu Huizhen frowned and said: "You mean, the foreign-related hotel you are opening now is actually just a test of the waters, and it also gives us more experience.

When the hotel is ready and we have relevant experience, you will invest in us separately and support us in opening another foreign-related hotel.

At that time, you will invest in the new hotel as a private person, but your shareholding ratio in the new hotel will not exceed 50%, and you will also ensure that our mother-in-law’s shareholding ratio exceeds 50%. Fifty-one, become the absolute majority shareholder of the new hotel? "

"Yes, that's it." Cao Zhiqiang smiled, "That's what I mean."

Xu Huizhen continued to frown and said, "Then what are you planning?"

"What are you trying to do?" Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly and suddenly turned to look at Xu Jingping.

Xu Jingping, who was listening quietly, was stunned, suddenly his face turned red, and then he lowered his head subconsciously, not daring to meet Cao Zhiqiang's eyes.

Seeing this, Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly, then turned his head again and said to the suspicious Xu Huizhen: "What am I trying to do? You will know later, but now, I'm sorry, it needs to be kept secret!

In short, you will definitely not suffer from my plan. Is this enough? "

Xu Huizhen's expression changed, and then she asked: "Do you really plan this?"

"If you don't believe it, I can write you a letter of guarantee." Cao Zhiqiang smiled slightly.

"That's not necessary." Xu Huizhen immediately smiled and waved her hand.

Well, she said this because she knew that this kind of guarantee was useless and had no legal effect at all.

When the time comes, Cao Zhiqiang will regret it and refuse to invest. Do you really want to ask him for investment with the so-called guarantee letter? Isn't that a joke?

So this kind of thing really depends on sincerity and credibility.

"Okay, I understand." Xu Huizhen nodded.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Huizhen sighed deliberately and said:

“I’m old and can’t compare to you young people.

President Cao is young, promising and well-informed, and he must be thinking further than me.

In this case, then I will listen to you and do exactly what you say! "

"Then it's settled!" Cao Zhiqiang nodded, "I will ask Xiao Xu, oh, Xu Jingli, to hand over the specific plan to you.

Of course, Vice President Chen will discuss the specific operation with you, Auntie.

Of course, during this period, Ms. Xu Jingping will also be involved. After all, she will be the deputy manager in the future. "

After smiling at Xu Jingping again, Cao Zhiqiang rubbed his hands and said, "Okay, that's it for today. It's time for me to go. If we have a chance next time, let's have tea together."
