Chapter 213 Target: Hot Pot Tycoon

Early the next morning, when Zhang Yang woke up, he subconsciously looked at Xie Shuting's social platform.

Early in the morning, she updated her status.

There is no accompanying text, just a photo of the sun rising outside the window, reflecting the potted plants on the windowsill. Judging from the location, it is in HS City.

Zhang Yang heard Xie Shuting say that her hometown seemed to be in Chengkan Town, below Huangshan Mountain. It was said to have beautiful scenery and the most authentic ancient Huizhou flavor.

She also invited Zhang Yang to be a guest.

But now it seems that there should be no chance.

"Just go home." Zhang Yang muttered to himself, feeling slightly relieved and finally letting go of the matter.

He got out of bed, opened the curtains, and welcomed the morning light. Feeling refreshed, he walked into the bathroom to rinse and start a new day.

After taking a shower, the system prompt came.

All the shares of Tangwang Hot Pot have been changed, and he can go to the designated accounting firm to hand over the transfer at any time.

In other words, except for some small details, Tangwang Hotpot, a chain of high-end hotpot brands with 70 stores across the country, is now an industry under his name.

It was early in the morning, and Zhang Yang was in a good mood.

"Find something for yourself to do."

At that moment, he called his driver and asked him to wait downstairs. As for himself, he walked into the kitchen and got himself some food.

Although it would be very convenient to hire an aunt, but living alone, he pays more attention to privacy and is not used to other people at home. If he really needs to clean and tidy up, he can just ask the hourly aunt to come.

After a simple breakfast, Zhang Yang sat in the back row of the Phantom and chatted with Bai Xiaomi for a while.

Last time, Bai Xiaomi wanted to follow him, but considering that he had a mission, Zhang Yang didn't let her follow him. This time he accepted the property and went to Liangxi for a walk. The distance was also close, so it was suitable for Bai Xiaomi to follow him. Take the secret with you.

"Didn't you say you wanted to go on a business trip with me? Wait downstairs in the company later."

"What? I'll go down now, Director Zhang." Xiaomi Bai immediately replied with the message, and there was joy in every word.

Putting down his phone, Zhang Yang smiled and started to contact the accounting firm.

At around 8:30, the car arrived downstairs at the company and the phone call was finished.

Zhang Yang looked out the car window. Xiaomi Bai was standing under the office building, looking around expectantly. Then his eyes lit up and he ran over like a gust of wind.

"Dr. Zhang, have you had breakfast?" Xiaomi Bai sat in the back row wearing a short skirt that covered her hips, looking like a white-collar beauty. "I brought you breakfast."

Bai Jingyi carefully took out the disposable lunch box, which was filled with small and exquisite fried buns.

"Me, I just ate this morning." Zhang Yang waved his hand.

"Oh, you can eat one, it's still hot." Bai Xiaomi approached gently and opened the lunch box coquettishly.

Zhang Yang glanced at the driver who was sitting in front of him, and opened the fender. The front and rear seats were immediately separated, and the back suddenly became a private space.

The first stop is naturally to go to an accounting firm to go through the formalities and obtain relevant equity documents.

At ten o'clock, Zhang Yang got back into the car.

At this point, all the procedures have been completed, and Tangwang Hotpot is completely his private property.

"Director Zhang, where are we going?" Bai Xiaomi asked curiously in the car.

"Where to go?" Zhang Yang smiled and waved his hand, "Go to Liangxi."

After acquiring the new industry, he naturally wanted to inspect it and get to know the situation. Of course, Zhang Yang regarded this trip to Liangxi purely as a relaxing trip.

Well, a relaxing trip with a personal assistant.

During his trip, Zhang Yang didn't make any surprise attacks. Instead, he called the company in advance to give the management there some mental preparation.

Then, set off.

The journey from Magic City to Liangxi is only over a hundred kilometers and takes more than an hour's drive.

Sitting in the extremely spacious back seat of the Phantom, with Xiaomi Bai accompanying him, Zhang Yang didn't feel bored at all, he just felt that time passed very quickly.

Around noon, the car arrived at Liangxi.

Liangxi, the pearl of Taihu Lake and one of the birthplaces of Wu culture, is a good place with beautiful scenery and developed economy.

Zhang Yang half-lowered the window, looked out the window, and thought about where to go with Bai Xiaomi for fun after finishing the business. Because there are so many scenic spots in Liangxi, if you really want to visit them, you will definitely not be able to visit them all in one or two days.

"By the way, you can come and see where you want to go." Zhang Yang slapped Bai Xiaomi on the thigh.

"Ah? I'll make the decision?" Bai Xiaomi was stunned, his eyes were bright, and he quickly took out his mobile phone and started planning.

At noon, Zhang Yang took Bai Xiaomi and went straight to the Plaza 66 in Liangxi for dinner.

In a Hong Kong-style tea restaurant, Bai Xiaomi was pulling Zhang Yang and talking non-stop.

"Director Zhang, we can go to Yuantouzhu Scenic Area. If you don't go here to Liangxi, you haven't come. If you have time, you can also go to Huishan Ancient Town or see the Lingshan Giant Buddha."

"Okay, let's take a look around slowly." Zhang Yang was fine.

When you come out to play, just have a good time, relax, and walk around.

After lunch, the two of them walked together, got on the Phantom and went straight to the Soup King Hotpot headquarters.

In an industrial park in Xinwu District, Tangwang Hotpot's headquarters and a central kitchen are located in the park.

Outside a four-story office building in the park.

As soon as Zhang Yang got out of the car, several managers of Tangwang Hot Pot from top to bottom greeted him.

"Hello, Director Zhang, I am Zhou Bin, the current general manager of Tangwang Hotpot. These are..." Zhou Bin came up and introduced himself humbly, and by the way introduced a few people around him, who are all district presidents of several nearby districts. , today is also a good time to come to the headquarters for a meeting.

Zhang Yang shook hands, and without wasting any time, he asked Zhou Bin to lead the way, preparing to go in and take a look.

"Dr. Zhang, Dong." Secretary Bai lowered his voice from the side.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Yang glanced at Bai Xiaomi strangely.

"It's Tangwang Hot Pot. Did you... also buy it?" Bai Jingyi's eyes flashed with admiration, "I love Tangwang Hotpot the most. I don't even go to certain places, I just like to go to their house... No, He just loves to go to our house."

"Are you still such a loyal fan?" Zhang Yang was suddenly surprised.

"Of course, girls love hot pot and want to keep healthy, so it must be Tangwang Hotpot. Moreover, I am also a member of Tangwang Hotpot." Bai Xiaomi followed with a smile to show off.

"By the way, Director Zhang, can you give me a benefit and help me upgrade my membership level? Our highest-level Black Soup member has to eat once a week for a year on average to reach the level. I can't afford it. "

"It's a small matter, I'll arrange it for you later." Zhang Yang said nonchalantly.

In the office building, Zhang Yang looked at the company's development history.

Starting from the first store in Liangxi in 2011, it has been steadily and steadily expanding its presence in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. So far, it has opened stores and is still looking for further expansion.

Hanging on the wall is a map of the country, with store openings currently concentrated in Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai. "Director Zhang, our store has always focused on the boutique route and will not open in non-boutique business districts. At present, basically every store is located in the local first-tier business district, a prime location." Zhou Bin introduced from the side. road.

"What about the expansion plan?" Zhang Yang asked.

"The next focus is to open the store north to Beijing and south to Pengcheng, Yangcheng, and strive to cover major first-tier and new first-tier cities." Zhou Bin said the plan.

Expansion naturally costs money.

But Tangwang Hotpot is not just opening stores all over the place. Only a handful of new stores are opened every year, so it can naturally be self-sufficient.

Zhang Yang also thought of something at the same time.

If in the future, Tangwang Hot Pot opens more stores and requires huge funds for expansion, his Yunhai Capital's annual investment of 300 million can be fully invested.

Well, even though I voted for myself, the system probably wouldn’t consider my actions as illegal.

If things like this continue, he will naturally not dare to compete with a certain position in the world, but there is great hope that he can become a listed company with a hot pot chain brand.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yang's eyes suddenly lit up.

In the office, Zhou Bin introduced Zhang Yang to the current store situation and specific business conditions.

Although each has its own highs and lows, whether it is net profit margin, turnover, or turnover, they are generally average, and the momentum looks quite good.

As for the net profit, it was similar to what he knew before.

Last year's net profit was just over 100 million, with a total turnover of 1110 million.

Xiaomi Bai was dumbfounded and shocked as she listened. Although she had known that Director Zhang had many properties and huge assets, she saw one of them with her own eyes.

Knowing that this soup king hot pot alone can earn Zhang Yang more than 100 million a year, he can still feel the financial power rushing towards him.

"By the way, take me to the central kitchen again." Zhang Yang said.

The headquarters is nothing to see.

The focus is on the warehousing and supply system of Tangwang Hot Pot, as well as the 70 stores.

The central kitchen that integrates pre-processed dishes, warehousing, distribution, etc. is naturally the one that needs to be paid attention to and visited.

After a while, Zhang Yang visited the central kitchen here again.

Liangxi's central kitchen initially invested 50 million, which is enough to meet the full supply of 50 direct-operated stores at the same time, with an annual output of nearly 10,000 tons.

As for Tangwang Hot Pot, there are two such central kitchens. In addition, there is also a base production factory. The current supply system is more than enough to meet the supply of ingredients for 70 directly-operated stores.

Zhang Yang is not an expert, so naturally he will not be whimsical. He will talk about whatever comes to mind, or express some whimsical and taken-for-granted thoughts.

After all, there are specialties in the art industry, and in terms of professionalism, he is certainly not as good as Zhou Bin, a catering veteran.

At present, Tangwang Hot Pot is actually very differentiated. For example, it focuses on health-preserving soups and streamlines complicated categories, etc., all of which avoid homogeneity. As for the next growth point, it is currently being explored.

"Director Zhang, don't forget about me." Secretary Bai reminded him in a low voice.

"What?" Zhang Yang looked at Bai Xiaomi and suddenly realized, "You're talking about your membership, right?"

Bai Jingyi's head nodded quickly.

"You want me to greet you personally for such a trivial matter?" Zhang Yang felt funny and continued the instructions smoothly.

Then, he thought about it and felt that as a BOSS, he opened his mouth just to upgrade his assistant's membership level. It seemed that he was overqualified and overqualified, so he might as well...

"By the way, how about giving her membership an upgrade to allow her to eat whatever she wants." Zhang Yang said smoothly.

Just think of it as a small benefit for your little assistant.

Even if she eats every day for 365 days, how much can she eat? Besides, who eats hot pot every day?

"That's great, I love you, Director Zhang." Upon hearing this, Xiaomi Bai couldn't help herself. She came up and gave Zhang Yang an ambiguous hug.

Zhou Bin stood aside, watching in his heart, and secretly thinking about it.

It seems that the white assistant next to the boss has a close relationship with the boss!

After visiting Tangwang Hotpot, Zhang Yang didn't stay much longer.

It’s our own company and our own employees, so there’s no need to be too formalistic, and there’s no need to eat or anything like that, we can leave it for next time.

As for further in-depth understanding and finding out some problems, Zhang Yang is not in a hurry. He can leave it to his team, or wait until he gets his experience book of Fortune 500 CEOs.

As for now, it's time to take Bai Xiaomi and enjoy the trip to Liangxi.

Leaving the Tangwang Hot Pot headquarters, Zhang Yang got on the Phantom, took Bai Xiaomi with him, and the group went straight to Taihu Yuantouzhu Scenic Area. It was evening, so they sat down nearby.

When traveling, there is no need to stick to a fixed itinerary.

Take a walk and take a look. Once your state of mind is in place, everything will naturally fall into place.

In the afternoon, the sun sets in the Yuantouzhu Scenic Area, on the shore of Taihu Lake.

Zhang Yang and Bai Xiaomi walked up and down, walking slowly, blowing the wind from Taihu Lake, and the beautiful scenery of Taihu Lake came to their faces.

Above the lake, red-billed gulls flew in the golden sunset.

Bai Xiaomi stood excitedly by the lake, raised her hands, and let the red-billed gull peck at the food in her hand, smiling brightly.

Zhang Yangjing stood aside, feeling relaxed, looking at the excited and joyful figure of Secretary Bai in the distance with his long hair gilded with sunset gold, and a smile appeared on his lips involuntarily.

It's so pleasant.

Taihu Lake, sunset, breeze, and distant figures.

Zhang Yang felt free and unrestrained, and suddenly remembered Zhou Bangyan's words: At this time, the mood is at this time, and nothing happens to the little fairy.

He found a big rock and sat down. He really hoped that not only today, but also tomorrow, and every day in the future, he would have such a state of mind and such a free spirit.

Even if you are tired from walking, you can stop at any time, walk to the watershed, and sit and watch the clouds rise.

"Dr. Zhang, Zhang Dong, let's go quickly." Bai Xiaomi came trotting over, looking very happy just now, but now he looks full of...

"What's wrong with you?" Zhang Yang stood up and asked in a funny tone.

"My hand... hurts from being pecked. It's nothing. I'm not that delicate. The main reason is that the seagull pooped on me." Bai Xiaomi didn't know where to put his hands, neither standing nor sitting.

Zhang Yang took a quick look and immediately smiled.

In front of Bai Xiaomi, there were a few gray spots, which were obviously taken care of by the red-billed gull.

"It's okay. I'll wipe it off for you first and change it back to the hotel." Zhang Yang stepped forward with a smile, took out the wet wipes he brought with him, walked up and wiped Xiaomi Bai off, and he didn't mind if it was dirty.

Bai Xiaomi stared blankly at Zhang Yang, who was helping her wipe her clothes with his head down and his expression serious, and suddenly pursed his lips, his eyes extremely gentle.
