Chapter 15 Establishment of a company
In mid-June, after nearly half a month of searching, I finally found it and could be used as the location of Lao Fengxiang flagship store.
"Boss, the first floor of this store is about 1,500 feet (140 square meters), and it is ours to rent it on the second floor. The passenger flow outside is also quite good. The only disadvantage is that it is less than 100 meters away from Chow Tai Fook." Rong Bensheng took Wu Guangyao and walked in the clothing store that was still open.
"This is not called a disadvantage, this is called an advantage. If our products are excellent enough and our service is thoughtful enough, then Chow Tai Fook's customers will also become our customers. Do you still think this is a disadvantage?" Wu Guangyao saw a street in his previous life where there were jewelry stores!
"The boss is right, it's because I have a narrow vision!" Rong Bensheng said modestly.
It is not easy to find such a large storefront in Queen's Avenue. Rong Bensheng relied on inquiries from one shop after another to find this clothing store that has expired in half a month and will not renew the lease.
It can be said that Rong Bensheng's ability has been highlighted, which makes Wu Guangyao feel that he has found a treasure!
"You go and talk to the clothing store owner. If he moves away half a month in advance, we are willing to pay his rent for one month as compensation. Of course, our bottom line is to compensate for the rent for two months, you can do it yourself!" Wu Guangyao didn't want to waste half a month, after all, time is money for himself.
"Okay, there should be no problem. Their business is not good. It's better to collect some rent and come back!" Rong Bensheng said confidently.
.........
"Boss Wu, what do you think of this house? Whether it is a processing factory or as a company office location, it is good..." An intermediary introduced to Wu Guangyao with great effort.
This is a three-story tenement building, which is only about 10 years old, and it is not particularly old.
There are many old-fashioned two- or three-story tenement buildings in Hong Kong today, and most of the middle-class people live in the tenement buildings.
Wu Guangyao was thinking in his heart whether this tenement building could meet his needs.
The first floor can be used as the address of its own security company. The security company not only needs to protect its own security, but also bears the safety of Lao Fengxiang's property.
The second and third floors are naturally used as jewelry workshops. In the future, all jewelry will be produced here and then shipped to various stores in Hong Kong Island.
If this arrangement is made, the Tang Dynasty building needs to be renovated well, with a wall around it, a good painted exterior wall, and a little movement inside.
This kind of thing is naturally left to Xue Cheng. After all, after working together once, Wu Guangyao was very satisfied with him in all aspects.
In the end, Wu Guangyao decided to be it. Anyway, it was just a temporary factory for the past two years. When you have money in the future, you can build one by yourself.
After the processing factory was confirmed, good news came from the flagship store. The original owner agreed to move in two days and compensate him for one month's rent.
After renting both sides, they are all in renovation and can be opened at the end of July.
.............
Time passed day by day. By late July, the two companies had almost finished preparations.
Lao Fengxiang Co., Ltd. is registered on the second floor of Lao Fengxiang flagship store located in Queens Avenue. In the future, Wu Guangyao will lead the management staff to work.
The composition of Lao Fengxiang Co., Ltd. is: Queen's Avenue Central Flagship Store, Wenxian East Street Branch, and jewelry processing workshop.
Leidun Security Company was also established on the first floor of Lao Fengxiang Processing Factory, but there were not many people on the battlefield in Hong Kong Island at this time, so they only recruited a few martial arts people.
According to Wu Guangyao's idea, he would rather recruit some people who have been on the battlefield because they have murderous aura.
After all, martial arts are all routines, and what is really effective is the killer move. Only those who fight hard on the battlefield will know.
However, it is obvious that the time is not yet, because the mainland is now in a difficult time to kill, so naturally there are no one in Hong Kong. Even if there are, they are rare and deserters.
.........
The first company meeting in the Lao Fengxiang company is being held.
Wu Guangyao looked at the other four people and said, "Let me introduce everyone's positions: Rong Bensheng, deputy general manager and flagship store manager; Li Xia, Wenxian East Street store manager; Gundam, jewelry workshop manager; Yuan Jian, finance department director..."
"Minister Yuan, let me introduce to you the financial situation of the company!" Wu Guangyao said to Yuan Jian, a financial officer who had just recruited.
Yuan Jian took out his notebook and said to everyone: "Mr. Wu, colleagues. Lao Fengxiang invested 22,000 Hong Kong dollars from Mr. Wu to establish the Wenxian East Street Store. During the three-month business hours, the profit was 50,000 Hong Kong dollars, which is counted as an asset of 72,000!"
"The loan from the bank is HK$60,000, so the total assets are HK$132,000."
"We spent a total of HK$40,000 to rent a house, decorating, purchasing equipment, preparing for a new store, etc., and bought two Ford cars, which cost a total of HK$10,000. So now we have a total of HK$70,000 in gold and silver goods, and HK$12,000 in cash."
One of the two Ford cars is a company car used to transport gold and silver jewelry; the other is intended to be used as a lottery for opening activities, of course the chance of winning is very small.
If you spend 100 Hong Kong dollars to draw a prize, the chance of a car is about 3000:1.
After Yuan Jian finished speaking, Wu Guangyao continued: "The company was first established, and many departments have not yet been fully built. For example, the design department, I am the only real designer now; there is also the operation department, which is a marketing department, and Manager Rong will also work together, and wait until I find someone suitable."
"The company was first established, everyone should be more attentive. Let me tell you the truth. I plan to study the equity incentive system. If you perform well, you will be able to get the company's shares in five years!"
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard it. They might not understand what the equity incentives are, but they can get shares after five years of performance. This is still very clear.
Wu Guangyao will not be stingy with that little bit of equity. After all, it will only take five years later, and he will give up 2% to encourage him.
Wu Guangyao then asked: "How are you preparing for the opening of the flagship store? Don't have an accident because of too many people, which is embarrassing!"
Rong Bensheng hurriedly said, "Don't worry, Mr. Wu. There are 12 flagship store clerks, and 4 Wenxian East Street store clerks, and 6 people from your security company to maintain order. In addition, Minister Yuan and I will be stationed in the store when the business is opened, so we will guarantee that there will be no accidents."
"Well, you must be careful!" Wu Guangyao knew that in later generations, because the opening was too hot, there would be endless troubles when something happened.
After the meeting, everyone returned to their positions.
Wu Guangyao took the workshop manager Gundam to the workshop by car and checked how he prepared before opening.
Chapter completed!
