Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

"Good! Mr. Meng is still as skilled as ever. I look forward to your performance. I will strongly support you. I will provide you with both people and money, and I can also help you raise funds."

Du Shaojie paused for a moment, then continued, "But I also have a request, which is to defeat Yin Qiang's fast food chain."

Meng Gang's eyes were a little moist. The boss had nothing to say about him. He was the one who failed the boss's trust in him. But how could he not be touched when the boss let bygones be bygones and threw such a big piece of cake?
In fact, he also knew very well that no company could allow one party to become powerful.

This was the case with the previous [Bailian Catering], and it is still the case with the current listing. Although the boss has no intention of replacing him at the moment, they cannot help but think about the issue of retreat.

Therefore, he would not give up this opportunity no matter what.

"Boss Du, please rest assured, I promise to complete this task."

Meng Gang didn't say anything too specific, but his attitude was very firm.

Du Shaojie nodded with satisfaction. For him, supporting a fast food chain was not a big deal at all, and he was not afraid that these people would turn against him in the future.

"Okay, let's adjourn the meeting. Mr. Meng, please follow me."

Du Shaojie immediately ended the meeting and took Meng Gang to his office to chat in detail for a long time.

Meng Gang wanted to start his own business, so he could not continue to serve as the chairman of the listed company. Then, the listed company issued an announcement saying that Meng Gang had resigned from the position of chairman of the company for personal reasons, and Su Dapeng would take over as the new chairman.

Others who follow Meng Gang to start a business do not need to issue an announcement and can leave after handing over their work normally.

Meng Gang's team raised some funds, and Du Shaojie lent them some money. At the same time, he also invested in the new company and obtained a 20% stake.

The new company was located in Guangzhou and quickly completed matters such as renting an office building and registering the company. It then began looking for storefronts in several major cities.

Meng Gang and others are experts in the catering industry and are very familiar with every ins and outs.

For the time being, five stores will be opened in five cities. The location of the stores is of course very particular, that is, they must be as close to Yin Qiang's fast food stores as possible.

It can be seen that Du Shaojie is obsessed with defeating Yin Qiang's fast food chain, so Meng Gang will naturally not take his time to lay out the plan.

He started fighting in close combat right from the start, without giving himself any buffer time.

As for the chefs, he doesn't have to worry about them. Du Shaojie has transferred a group of basic forces from various stores, who are capable of competing in the fast food industry.

It is difficult for these people to make a name for themselves in the stores under Bailian Catering, but they are the main force in fast food restaurants, and some chefs who have no hope of advancement are scrambling to get there.

The vacant positions in [Bailian Catering]'s stores were quickly filled. There was no shortage of basic talents like this, and Qi Yan's cooking school alone could meet the needs.

Du Shaojie gave advice from the beginning: fast food should first pay attention to hygiene, the raw materials should not be bad, the taste must be rich, the price should be fair, and people can choose according to their needs.

Just like a big canteen, dozens of dishes are displayed, with clear prices for meat and vegetarian dishes. The same goes for staple food, you can choose what you want to eat, and the dishes will also take into account the eating habits of most local people.

Five fast food restaurants were opened soon and quickly became popular with customers.

To be honest, as long as a fast food restaurant like this is clean, has reasonable prices and tastes good, its business will definitely be good.

On the other hand, Yin Qiang's fast food restaurant had a limited variety of dishes and high prices. At first, he didn't pay much attention to the new fast food restaurant, but before long, the performance of several stores competing with him began to decline.

Meng Gang and others tried many of their own ideas through 5 stores and gradually improved various rules and regulations, as well as various operating procedures.

There are certainly adjustments between stores, but they are minor ones, and generally a unified style is maintained.

After summarizing their experience, they immediately opened 10 more stores in various places.

Meng Gang immediately launched the first round of financing. He asked Fan Shilun of Dingxin International to personally take charge of the project and tailor a financing plan for them.

Given that the company's management team came from Bailian Catering, investors were optimistic about the project and the company quickly received 5000 million yuan in cash.

The investors received 12% of the shares, and the wealth of Meng Gang and others increased greatly. In such a short period of time, the wealth increased by more than 10 times.
The company plans to open 50 more stores in various regions and will start implementing it soon.

These are capital games that have been played out in later generations, but they are still very impactful now.

In the first round of investment, even Pang Weidong and Xu Bo invested some money. However, their investment was not the largest, as someone else led the investment.

These dazzling operations left Yin Qiang dumbfounded.

Meng Gang's fast food chain business grew too fast, like a snowball, which put a lot of pressure on his fast food restaurants.

"Du Shaojie!"

Yin Qiang had long known the details of Meng Gang and the others, and he held all his hatred against Du Shaojie.

But because Du Shaojie also has a background, even if he is not as strong as him, he dare not use unconventional tactics to deal with the current situation.

He and the people behind him had swallowed up the fat piece of meat of the Wang family, which had already caused dissatisfaction among many people. If he openly used some shady means, it would just give others a reason to take action.

"Come here, call everyone to a meeting. I don't believe that a bunch of stray dogs can defeat me."

Yin Qiang refused to admit defeat. He immediately called a meeting of relevant personnel and re-drafted the competition plan.

The only way to deal with this matter is to use commercial competition. He plans to increase investment and advertise more. Meng Gang's development momentum is very strong. In order to help them overcome the difficulties at the beginning of their business, Du Shaojie specially found Jiang Dongyuan and loaned Meng Gang 3000 million yuan through him.

While Meng Gang was working desperately, Du Shaojie quietly came to Hong Kong.

"Boss, the former Wang family's trading company has changed hands, but the brand has not changed. It is still called [Longsheng Trading Company]."

Zhong Qing was still keeping an eye on Longsheng Trading. There was chaos internally for a while, but soon someone took over and transferred the company.

"So the remaining goods from Longsheng Trading are also being transferred?"

Du Shaojie was not interested in those imported goods, he just wanted to know whether those goods fell into Yin Qiang's hands.

"The goods are all gone. Wasn't Longsheng Trading in chaos for a while? It was because the person in charge of the Wang family in Hong Kong took away all the money and goods."

Having said this, the corners of Zhong Qing's mouth suddenly twitched.

Are all the people in the Wang family good at running away with the money? Wang Dongxu was like this before, and so are the other people in the Wang family.

"Have you heard any news about Wang Dongxu recently?"

Du Shaojie also felt very happy, and tried hard not to laugh out loud.

Since this part of the assets did not fall into Yin Qiang's hands, he still had one worry, which was that he was afraid that the money and goods would fall into the hands of Wang Dongxu.

"No, Wang Dongxu has not been to Hong Kong since the last time. Boss, I guess the money and goods will never reach Wang Dongxu's hands."

Zhong Qing knew what his boss was worried about, so he started to explain.

Now, the Wang family has fallen, and even the children of the Wang family have to take care of themselves. How could they have the mood to make wedding dresses for others?
Du Shaojie also felt that this possibility was unlikely, so he didn't mention it again.

"If there is any news about Wang Dongxu, you must tell me immediately."

Du Shaojie gave some instructions and then got up and left.

The Wang family does not have a big shot now. As long as Wang Dongxu cannot turn things around, the remaining small fish and shrimp are not worth mentioning.

Even though he defeated Wang Dongxu back then, he would still be very wary if the Wang family let Wang Dongxu take power now.

Du Shaojie has always believed that the root of the problem must be eradicated and the Wang family must never be allowed to make a comeback.

Then he can deal with Yin Qiang with peace of mind without having to worry about being attacked from both sides.

Of course, the fight between him and Yin Qiang was not decided so quickly. After all, the other party had the support of the KTV hall and was not so easily defeated.

Zhong Qing did not see Du Shaojie out. He took a suitcase left by Du Shaojie and went up to the second floor.

It's not meal time now, there's no one in the store, the employees have all gone to rest, and they will come back to prepare dinner after the rest.

Upstairs is his private space and no one is allowed to come up without his permission.

Zhong Qing opened the suitcase, which was filled with cash, a total of one million Hong Kong dollars. This was the money that Boss Du had left for him, and the most important task at this stage was to find out the whereabouts of Wang Dongxu.

"The boss is good in every way except that he's too kind. Instead of worrying about Wang Dongxu making a comeback in the future, it's better to find an opportunity to get rid of him now."

Zhong Qing understood that his boss didn't want to be tainted with too much blood.

But who is he? He is a man who does the dirty work for his boss and does not wait until the boss asks him to do something.

As long as Du Shaojie feels that Wang Dongxu deserves to die, he will not hesitate to take the initiative to clear the obstacles for his boss.

Now he is not completely sure of his boss's intentions. Once he is sure, the day he finds Wang Dongxu will be the day of his death.

Du Shaojie got in the car and returned to the Repulse Bay Villa.

After resting for a while in the room, Li Yimei brought him a document and asked him to take a look.

"Mr. Meng is much sharper than before. He did a good job."

Du Shaojie took the document, read it, and couldn't help but smile.

Meng Gang reported to him the latest progress of the fast food chain. The number of the company's stores is still growing steadily. As of yesterday, it has exceeded 100 and reached 135.

In just a short period of time, the revenue of Yin Qiang's fast food chain dropped by 20%.

Meng Gang used to work for Du Shaojie and was very conservative in many things. Now that he has started his own business, his style has become much more radical.

This is a good thing. Meng Gang is not a good person to deal with. Instead of staying here and wasting time internally, it would be better for him to go out and fight the enemy.

Once successful, a billionaire will be born within the company.

The person who became a billionaire before Meng Gang was Su Dapeng. (End of this chapter)
