Siheyuan starts from a better life

Chapter 998 Investment
"This is a huge sum of money. Are you really willing to spend it?" the big boss asked with a smile.

"There's nothing I'm reluctant to give up. I haven't thought about investing this money yet. It's better to put it in the hands of the country. Maybe it will be of great use." Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"Good, good, you are worthy of being the most conscious person. OK, I will accept this money, and calculate the highest interest rate for you when the time comes. To be honest, the country needs money for construction everywhere now." The big leader said with a cheerful smile.

"Just follow the leader's arrangements." Jiang Yan said with a smile.

"Now the country's construction is changing with each passing day. Have you ever thought about engaging in some other industries?" the leader continued to ask.

"There is no plan yet, but the chip industry is a new industry and a high-tech industry. We are still investigating it." Jiang Yan thought for a while and spoke.

Investing in the chip field is something Jiang Yan has been thinking about for a long time. Although our industry lagged behind for a while, we were not strangled by other countries. But now we are back, and this industry is an emerging industry, which means that we are basically on the same starting line now, so Jiang Yan is considering increasing investment in this area. However, talent is always a problem.

"If you have any difficulties, please communicate with us in time." The leader said.

"There are no other difficulties for the time being. We have already reached agreements with several schools in Sijiu City, and they will invest in research and development in the early stage." Jiang Yan said.

"Well, scientific research and industry are closely integrated. This was your previous idea."

"The leader has a good memory."

"You said that the stock market is so good now, but those companies of Jiaobenji have no future." The big boss suddenly asked again.

Jiang Yan, a man of quick thinking, almost couldn't recover. The topic changed too quickly and he couldn't accept it.

"It's not that there aren't any, they're just relatively conservative. According to my investigation, big companies like Sony, Panasonic, Toyota, Toshiba, etc., all just borrowed money from banks to speculate in real estate and stocks.

But at the same time, they also ensured their investment in the technology field, their technology reserves, production research and development, and global layout. They did not stop at all.

According to my calculations, even if they lost too much money in the stock market, their skeleton is still there and they can continue to develop.

So Sony is still Sony, and Panasonic is still Panasonic, and they will never collapse as a whole due to huge losses from additional businesses.

"Why is that?" the leader asked.

"No, this can only be said to be related to their island mentality. They are either pure gamblers or they don't put all their eggs in one basket. Of course, this is also the principle of doing business."

"For foreign things, we should absorb the essence and discard the dross. We can say that we are crossing the river by feeling the stones." The leader sighed.

Jiang Yan believed this and it was indeed the case.

"Your supermarket shopping model is quite novel and convenient. Sometimes I wonder what's wrong with your brain that you can even think of this thing." The big boss said with a smile.

"Boss, I was not the first to create the supermarket. The word supermarket comes from the English word supermarket, which is often referred to as supermarket. It refers to a large-scale comprehensive retail mall that sells food and household daily necessities in a self-selected manner. It is the main form of commercial retail organization in many countries, especially in economically developed countries." "Supermarkets first appeared in New York, USA in 1930. In August 1930, Michael Cullen of the Eagle Sauce opened the first supermarket in New York State, USA - King Cullen United Store."

"In his book The Supermarket, American scholar M.M. Zimmerman points out that supermarkets are highly departmentalized retail stores that sell food and other goods. They are either fully operated by the owner or commissioned to others; they have sufficient parking lots and annual sales of no less than $25. Dry goods and daily groceries are sold in a self-service manner."

In the following time, Jiang Yan carefully told the leader about the origin of the supermarket, its specific functions, and the situation and rules of the supermarket's operation.

The senior leaders also raised questions from time to time, and Jiang Yan answered them one by one.

By the way, the supermarket opened by Jiang Yan is called Baccarat Supermarket, and the sales model of Xinying has attracted many people. According to the survey, the daily turnover of this supermarket is more than 100,000 yuan. Even if the gross profit is 10%, the profit of this day is more than 10,000 yuan. The profit of this month is a very scary figure.

So it is not wrong to say that supermarkets are cash cows.

"In other words, the supermarket you opened will not impact our farmers' market, but will instead play a certain supplementary role." The leader asked.

"Indeed, since we value quality, we test the products before they enter the supermarket, which increases the cost. The products sold in the farmers' market are all grown by our farmers themselves, which is direct sales, so the prices are lower than those in the supermarket."

"Nowadays, most of the people who go shopping in our supermarket are young people, and the older people will choose the farmers' markets. Even if we open supermarkets in every city, the services provided by the supermarkets are limited and cannot compare with the farmers' markets that are springing up everywhere." Jiang Yan said.

What Jiang Yan said was true. There were so many small supermarkets opened in communities in later generations, but this did not completely eliminate the farmers' markets. Sometimes many people still liked the farmers' markets.

“I remember that we have a special fresh produce area in our supermarket, which is better, but when it comes to purchasing, please give more attention to our farmers.” The big boss said.

"We have a special purchasing and supply department. As long as the vegetables they grow are up to standard, we will purchase them at the highest price on the market and never default on payments," Jiang Yan said.

"Well, you did a good job on this point. Keep it up in the future," the leader praised Jiang Yan.

"Your Xinghai Plaza model is also good. You can focus on promoting our state-owned enterprises. The quality of the products produced by our state-owned enterprises is still quite guaranteed."

The entrance requirements of Xinghai Square are quite strict, but the sales of businesses that move into Xinghai Square also increase sharply. It can be said that being able to move in is a brand name.

However, what the big boss didn't know was that it was Jiang Yan who proposed to purchase the land for Xinghai Square. In fact, the biggest resource of the entire Xinghai Square is precisely the relatively cheap land.

With these plots of land, even if the entire Xinghai Plaza goes bankrupt, the amount of money they can be sold for will be quite terrifying, not to mention that these plots of land are located in the city center or commercial center.

"If this meets the requirements, we will definitely promote it vigorously." Jiang Yan said.

"It's almost noon now. I have an appointment with several company leaders. Let's have a quick lunch together at noon and discuss it in the afternoon."

The purpose of asking Jiang Yan to come here today is to solve the problem of overproduction in many companies, but as they talked, the topic turned to other things. However, the leader did not forget the purpose of today's visit.
