Chapter 501 [Convenience Store Battle 1]
In early September, a Hong Kong Island Air flight that took off from Hong Kong Island to Tokyo was driving smoothly in the sky;
Wu Guangyao was in business class at this time, closing his eyes to rest.
There is a mysterious girl in economy class who is watching around;
Why is she said to be mysterious?
Because she is wearing a straw hat and sunglasses, it is difficult to give up her true face;
Of course, this kind of dress is obviously very popular in this era and will not attract the special attention of others;
However, girls have a good figure and make people think and naturally attract the attention of men.
Wu Guangyao closed his eyes and rested without realizing that anyone was thinking about him;
The mysterious girl is Deborah. She received an invitation from Wu Guangyao to go on vacation together in Japan.
"Hate! I don't talk to me and don't look at me. I'm so arrogant!" Deborah secretly slandered Wu Guangyao in her heart.
Deborah then understood the truth again. This person's identity obviously does not allow her to date her blatantly!
OK, I will forgive you, Deborah thought so!
In Wu Guangyao's feeling, five hours passed by, and it was only two o'clock in the afternoon after getting off the plane;
On a business car, Wu Guangyao and Deborah clashed.
"Are you tired? Do you have the energy to accompany me to go shopping?" Wu Guangyao turned a blind eye to the little girl's anger. He naturally knew why Deborah was so angry when she saw her. Isn't it just that she didn't take care of her on the plane and didn't take business class!
When he heard about shopping, Deborah was shocked and nodded as excited as a chicken pecking at rice;
Wu Guangyao smiled, then hugged Deborah in his arms, regardless of whether the girl agreed or not.
More than an hour later, Wu Guangyao and Deborah came to Ginza and did not check in directly into the hotel, but came to the street;
Holding Deborah's little hand, the two of them first walked into a Metro convenience store;
"Ira's down to Imase!" the clerk at the door greeted with a smile.
"Not bad! I gave the first impression of the guests when I entered the door!" Wu Guangyao said naturally in a leader's tone.
At this time, many people in the convenience store had discovered the unusualness of Wu Guangyao and his party, so they looked at each other;
But Wu Guangyao was unmoved at all, looking up at the decoration above his head, as well as the entire store layout, light, passenger flow, etc.
Soon Wu Guangyao nodded again, thinking that the layout of the 7-11 convenience store in later generations was similar;
The light is bright enough, the layout is neat, and the passenger flow is pretty good, which is worthy of Ginza's blessed market.
At this time, the store manager also discovered Wu Guangyao and his party’s unusualness, so he put down his work and came to Wu Guangyao;
"You are seven watts empty, who are you?"
The store manager came to inquire about the news because he was worried that Wu Guangyao and his party were Japanese colleagues;
So I plan to greet you, which gives people the feeling that I am eyeing you. You cannot take photos, cannot affect the guests, and put pressure on you...
Wu Guangyao turned around, looked at the store manager about 30 years old, and said, "I belong to the Hong Kong General Company!"
After saying that, he no longer paid attention to the store manager, but started to take a closer look at the magazine stand at the door of the store.
At first glance, the magazines on the magazine stand are placed in an orderly manner, but there is a certain phenomenon, that is, after the customer turned it over, there was no time to organize it.
"After the guests read this magazine, you must organize it quickly when you have time!"
"Hi!"
At this time, the store manager had already believed it a little, but it wouldn't work if he didn't believe it. Judging from his momentum, he was 100% leader;
The only uncertain thing is whether it is the leader of his own company!
Wu Guangyao came to Guandong to cook and wait for hot food. There were no clerks here, but when Wu Guangyao arrived, a clerk soon arrived here;
"You are seven watts empty!"
The clerk's smile and greeting made Wu Guangyao nod his head secretly, and the company's manager did not disappoint him!
Why Wu Guangyao cares about the attitudes of the clerk so much is naturally influenced by a documentary I have watched in my previous life;
The documentary is called "Shanghai Convenience Store Fight". It is a documentary filmed by a Japanese media. It records that three years after China joined WTO, China relaxed its foreign retail business licenses, and then a battle between various convenience stores in Shanghai;
The protagonists in the film include Family (Japan), Rosen (Japan), Haode (China State-owned Enterprise), etc. Because Haode is a state-owned enterprise, it needs to place laid-off workers and recruits a large number of aunts in their forties or fifties, resulting in very poor service;
Wu Guangyao always had a plot like this, and Haode's senior management came to inspect and said, "How is the business here?"
The aunts said, "It's pretty good!"
The senior executive of Haode was a little incredible and said, "It's pretty good? By the way, this store is about to close!"
"Ah, why should I close it?"
"The contract expires and the business is not ideal!"
"No, our business is good!"
"Do you know how much the store has lost?"
"I have to ask the head office! But the store is so busy that we can't bear it anymore! I'm almost 50 years old now, so I always want to relax!"
When the executive heard this, he didn't know what he was thinking, but he still had a smile on his face;
The executive smiled and said, "Does everyone think that you can make money easily?"
Finally, he smiled and said speechlessly, "That's why I closed this store. The loss is really serious!"
The laid-off aunt of the state-owned enterprise in this documentary, the leader of the state-owned enterprise, is not a match for the whole family or Luo Sen;
Of course, the final result can also be imagined!
This documentary inspired Wu Guangyao, and the corporate spirit of Japan is worth learning from!
The content of Wu Guangyao's inspection this time is three aspects: the first is the service attitude and convenience in the store, the second is the store environment, and the third is the deliciousness of the food.
"Pack me some hot food and bento, put it on the small table over there, and I'm going to taste it soon!" Wu Guangyao said.
"Okay, wait!"
At this time, the store manager and the clerk were still suspicious, but they would not say it out!
After a round, the overall feeling is good, a bit like the 7-11 convenience store in later generations.
Deborah also knew at this time that she was here to accompany her shopping, and it was obvious that she was here to accompany her to work;
This feeling is really good. He empathizes with the confidence he has and the respect others have given him.
When he arrived at the small table in the convenience store, Wu Guangyao invited Deborah and two bodyguards to taste it;
Speaking of which, the idea of putting small tables in convenience stores is naturally designed by Wu Guangyao.
"Eat! There may be no big meal at night. Today we will eat food from the convenience store!" Wu Guangyao said to Deborah beside him.
"The food in this convenience store is pretty good! Look at the appearance of this, it still makes people feel very appetizing!" Debonna said sensible.
This is the feeling of eating street stalls with rich people, and it is different from eating street stalls with poor people!
Wu Guangyao ate very seriously, very carefully and enjoyed it!
Halfway through the late, he called the store manager not far away to him and said, "My name is Wu Guangyao, do you know who I am?"
The store manager immediately became surprised, then quickly responded and said, "Yes, will... Chairman!"
Wu Guangyao nodded and said, "Don't be nervous, I'll ask you some questions, you just need to answer them! First of all, how many years have this store been open?"
The store manager quickly replied: "This is an old store, it has been 5 years!"
It opened in 1966 and was almost the first Metro convenience stores to open;
Baiyou Group entered Japan in October 1965, so the first batch of stores opened almost in the first half of 1966.
"How much is the daily business? When you start to come to this store, have there been any changes, has it increased or decreased?"
"Currently, the daily turnover is around 1.08 million yen (US$3,000, and the average monthly income of Japan is $140.) I have been in this store for three years. It started to grow to $4,000 at the beginning, but gradually fell by about $1,000 in the past two years."
"Are you looking for a reason?"
"There are two more peers around, one is 7-11, the whole family is the whole family, but these two businesses are not as good as ours!"
After getting to know about it, Wu Guangyao nodded, went to the front desk to settle the account, and planned to go to 7-11 to inspect the whole family.
Chapter completed!
