1987: Sleepless Tonight

"I will definitely work harder and contribute my light and heat under the guidance of all leaders." Lu Hao said, "I didn't expect to be able to cooperate with KFC this time and it would be so smooth."

"Actually, at the beginning, I didn't have that much confidence to cooperate with KFC, but the city gave me a lot of help. When doing activities in the department store, as well as during the renovation and expansion, the city made great efforts. , including when I won other state-owned units, the city also gave very great discounts and support, which let me know that the city is resolutely implementing the policy of economic reform, state-owned units, collective units, and the private economy, including Joint ventures and joint development with foreign capital are not empty words, but policies that are actually implemented, so I dare to contact KFC," said Lu Hao.

"It's because I have a strong backing, and Jiangcheng's economic and business soil is very fertile, which gives me strong confidence."

Flower sedan chairs are carried by everyone.

I originally planned to contribute my achievements in cooperating with KFC to the city, so naturally I had to say something good to the city.

During the negotiation process with KFC, on the surface, the city did not directly help. It is not easy to start from this aspect, so we should start from the policy, from the soil, from the economic environment, and from the past contacts with the city, to get the city's help. Help and support, etc., from these aspects, the credit will be forced on the market.

It's like complimenting someone.

If the person is not good-looking, directly praising her for her beauty will appear too hypocritical. People around her, including herself, know that she is not good-looking, but directly praising her for her good looks is too hypocritical and will make people feel uncomfortable.

I can't say I have a good figure either.

But in addition to praising appearance, you can also praise spirit and character. It doesn’t necessarily have to focus on appearance. For example, you can say that this person is very gentle, this person has a nice voice, this person is very virtuous, or this person Cook delicious food, etc.

There are many places to praise. If one place is not good, you can praise it in another place.

"What does Boss Lu really think?" Wang Xiaohui asked.

Originally, he was still thinking about how he could give the city's credit and whether Lu Hao could take the initiative to mention it. After all, this matter was indeed completed by Lu Hao alone, and the city actually did not provide any substantial help. .

Forcibly assigning credit seems too direct.

But he didn't expect Lu Hao to take the initiative to bring up the city's role, which made him a little embarrassed. Is the city's role really that big?

Regarding some policy measures and economic and political reforms, the document given above is actually relatively vague. The general meaning is that within the framework of the reform, each locality will make specific responses according to local conditions and its own specific conditions. measure.

For example, in terms of factory reform, there is no clear explanation as to whether it is a merger, direct bankruptcy, contracting and leasing, or other methods.

There are no clear measures, and there is a very wide range of activities. Local leaders need to decide whether it is a merger, whether it is a merger with a state-owned unit, a merger with the local government, a merger with a relevant department, or a merger with a private unit. , whether to let the contracting, whether there are any restrictions on the contracting, let the employees and managers in the unit contract, or open the door and allow private contracting, etc.

These all depend on what the local leaders think. Take Jiangcheng as an example. In fact, each leader has different ideas about specific measures, and they may not necessarily support private mergers.

Therefore, Lu Hao said that the city's leaders are very supportive of the individual economy. This is actually not necessarily true. Not all leaders are very supportive of this. There are still some leaders who hold different opinions, and some leaders are worried. The growth of the individual economy will be detrimental to society and the country. Therefore, some objections are often raised at meetings to restrict the merger of the individual economy with the state-owned economy.

Although the general direction of Jiangcheng is still to support the development of the individual economy, this kind of opposition will often give greater resistance to larger opinions.

At this time, people in the individual economy need to stand up. There is a representative figure who can take over the bankrupt state-owned economy and revitalize the state-owned units that were about to collapse. Not only can their products continue to be in the market The above-mentioned sales can also provide jobs, so that employees who are facing layoffs do not have to be laid off, and they will not be without a job, so that their families will not have no wages to survive.

Furthermore, it can provide more tax revenue to the government.

It was under this circumstance that Lu Hao appeared among the private businessmen concerned by the city leaders.

Originally, the city did not pay attention to Lu Hao, but to other private bosses. It wanted to use these people as benchmarks for private bosses and role models for private enterprises to inspire other private bosses and allow these private bosses to operate with confidence and boldness.

At the same time, it also allows those leaders who are opposed to private individuals and are worried about private bosses to have no reason to refute, allowing those leaders to change their minds.

Lu Hao's name appeared in the ears of city leaders on the opening day of Wanjia Department Store. The turnover actually reached 500 million, exceeding the turnover of Jiangcheng Mall on the opening day.

Although Jiangcheng Mall opened a few years earlier than Wanjia Department Store, Jiangcheng Mall is a state-owned unit with a large operating area and good decoration. It hired a professional decoration design unit and received full support from the city. Before its opening, For a month, the city made a special publicity campaign, communicating with managers of various agencies, institutions, and state-owned units, including employees, and encouraged these people to visit Jiangcheng Mall on the opening day.

Despite various conditions, the result is still not as good as Wanjia Department Store, which has a business area of ​​only 1500 square meters.

This made the city curious.

And the following series of operations by Lu Hao made the city even more amazed. For example, in the encirclement and suppression of 9 state-owned units including Jiangcheng Shopping Mall, Lu Hao was able to think of the activity of "home appliances going to the countryside and warmth into the homes". Buy TV sets from several units and then resell them to poor families in villages and urban villages to earn fame.

They even took the initiative to invite the city and relevant departments to participate in this activity.

This business acumen is a must!

Political acumen is also required!

From then on, the city focused on Lu Hao and Wanjia Department Store. When the Wanjia Department Store was renovated and expanded later, the city was willing to provide convenience.
