Rebirth of Hong Kong 1981

As for the issue of Xiangjiang not having large supermarkets in later generations, Yang Chen also considered this, but he didn't care.

It is only the early 80s, and Xiangjiang, which is not the later 90s, is already in a saturated state in this regard.

Another thing is the living habits of later generations of Xiangjiang people. After more than ten years, they have adapted to shopping in small stores.

In a place where there are already fixed living habits, if a large supermarket wants to enter, it would be really strange if it can succeed.

But now, Xiangjiang in the early 80s has just become the Four Asian Tigers. People's living habits, like the entire market of Xiangjiang, are facing a period of transformation.

The Xiangjiang market has shifted from manufacturing to service and financial industries, and the lives of ordinary people are also at the turning point of this transformation.

If large supermarkets do well, people have no reason not to welcome them, and supermarkets also have a grading system. According to the flow of people around them, first-tier, second-tier, and third-tier are even very low.

At that time, it will be exported through large supermarkets and hypermarkets, and will gather surrounding small supermarkets and surrounding convenience stores, from large to small, and then everywhere.

The reason why later generations of Xiangjiang do not have the survival space of large supermarkets is that, in addition to people's living habits, the government is afraid that they will monopolize the market and then manipulate prices.

This point, Yang Chen has no worries at all, because he never expected to make much money through the supermarket.

What supermarkets need to do is to benefit the common people. As long as they put themselves in the shoes of the common people, they will definitely be welcomed by the common people.

As long as the things in the supermarket, especially daily necessities, are in a relatively balanced state with the overall market.

Do not deliberately suppress suppliers, and do not withhold the welfare of ordinary people.

What should be expensive is expensive, what should be cheap is cheap, everything depends on market changes.

In this way, it is impossible for the small markets outside to really impact the large supermarkets. As long as people get used to this way of shopping, his layout will be completed.

As long as it can be welcomed by the people, the Xiangjiang government is not a problem at all.

As long as the domestic government does not come forward, he has nothing to be afraid of. Moreover, according to the future domestic market trend and the hypermarket model, it is difficult for small markets to survive.

Now that the whole country is like this, what else does he have to be afraid of?

After thinking about the entry point, Yang Chen began to look for management candidates, because there is no large supermarket in Xiangjiang, and management talents in this area are too scarce.

Fortunately, as the meeting point of Asia, Xiangjiang has all kinds of talents. Although there are few talents in this field that Yang Chen needs, they are not completely absent.

Even if he doesn't, as long as he wants, he can go abroad to recruit people through intermediary companies.

The Chinese are all over the world, he doesn't want to use foreigners, what kind of talents are there in the Chinese crowd?

Today, Xiangjiang, as one of the four Asian tigers, enjoys rapid economic development, and its urban standards have almost reached the level of first-class foreign cities.

Such a place, as long as the banknotes are waved well, who would not want to come?

Perhaps it was because Wal-Mart did so well in the later generations, Yang Chen aimed his hoe directly at it, and the top-ranked talent agency companies in Xiangjiang all received his notice of poaching.

Wal-Mart's Chinese employees in various places, from the bottom cashiers to management personnel, as long as they are experienced and have a certain number of years of qualifications, as long as they are willing to work in Xiangjiang, the number is not limited, the more the better.

After receiving Yang Chen's notice, several intermediary companies were a little speechless. After all, most of them accepted high-level talents. Yang Chen's request really made them somewhat at a loss for what to say.

Even the cashiers and the people who manage the warehouse have to dig, which is simply eye-popping.

However, after these companies saw the reward Yang Chen gave, they directly took the business by pinching their noses without saying a word.

In a capitalist society, money is everything. As long as there is money to make, these companies don't care what kind of talent Yang Chen wants.

Moreover, Yang Chen's requirements for talents are low, so it's easier for them to poach corners. With this kind of low investment and high returns, the major intermediary companies in Xiangjiang also became ruthless.

One after another, the employees of the company were mobilized, and there was a tendency to hollow out all the experienced Chinese employees in Wal-Mart Supermarket.

Today, there are 500 million people in the entire Xiangjiang. With so many people, there are at least hundreds of supermarkets, large and small.

In addition, there are countless convenience stores, all of which require people and experienced personnel to manage them.

Therefore, he is really not afraid of some intermediary companies, who will find too many people for him and cannot be placed.

From scratch, in this process, Yang Chen must have a group of experienced talents.

Those recruited from abroad, no matter how capable they are, need to adapt to the new environment at the initial stage.

And at this time, these people are like a robot that hasn't been implanted with orders. Some of Yang Chen's ideas can completely complement those of management talents, so as to achieve the results he and the market want.

In a few days, several intermediary companies have sent the materials of talents who are in Xiangjiang and have experience in managing large supermarkets to Yang Chen.

Looking at the materials and resumes in his hand, Yang Chen looked at each of them very carefully.

When selecting the initial management talents, what Yang Chen wants is not a strong manager who likes to be completely independent.

Because he doesn't like his words to be refuted by others, or even disobedient. In other words, what he needs is a professional manager with rich experience who can manage the company well and at the same time listen to his own opinions.

If he is disobedient, what else does he want from this company?It's better to give it away directly.

Only things that can be grasped in his hands are considered his own. Once he is disobedient, Yang Chen will give up without hesitation, no matter how good that person is, it's useless.

Chapter 81

Just when Yang Chen was preparing to go to the UK to participate in the concert held by Princess Diana, the album songs recorded by Yang Chen in PolyGram also appeared on the major Hong Kong music stations.

A song "Half Moon Serenade" and "The Girl Opposite Look Over" took less than half a day to spread directly across the streets and alleys of Xiangjiang.

As long as people go out, whether in a mall, in a car, or in a roadside store.

Almost every place where music can be played is filled with the voice of Yang Chen alone.

It's not that Polygram is so powerful that it can occupy all the radio stations in Xiangjiang, but that those who have listened to it once, almost without exception, all call to ask to listen to it again.

Yang Chen's songs were welcomed by all young men and women, although some middle-aged people didn't like to listen to Yang Chen's erotic songs.

However, it is always young people who lead the trend in this society. As long as something is welcomed by young people, it will be affirmed by the market.

Although middle-aged people have money, most of their money is spent on children and family living expenses. If you expect them to like one thing, besides cigarettes and alcohol, what else do you think can attract them?

The feedback from the Xiangjiang market did not exceed the expectations of the Polygram executives, but all the Polygram executives who listened to Yang Chen's song unanimously thought that Yang Chen would be a big hit.

As for the extent of the conflagration, although there is no guarantee, Polygram will never lose money in the Xiangjiang market.

What the senior management of Hong Kong Polygram never expected was the feedback from the British Polygram headquarters, which directly shocked all the senior management of Hong Kong Polygram.

As for the senior management of PolyGram's UK headquarters, for some unknown reason, they unexpectedly paid the utmost attention to the album recorded by Yang Chen.

When Xiangjiang sent Yang Chen's recorded album to the Polygram headquarters in the UK, the expected long wait did not happen.

Almost at the same time as Xiangjiang Polygram, the British Polygram headquarters immediately put Yang Chen's songs at the top of the playlists of major radio stations.

Yang Chen's two English songs and several newly arranged piano pieces entered the major music stations in the UK the next day.
