The Pentium Era - South to North

Zhang Chen and Lao Tan stayed in Sanya for a week. Recruitment for the hotel had already begun. Lao Xie finally agreed and let Fatty Fu come here as the executive chef.

Manager Cao, Mr. Cao, whose nickname is Cao Minfang.

When Fatty Fu arrived, Cao Minfang immediately felt the wisdom of Zhang Chen's proposal. A hotel seemed to have many departments, but in fact, the catering department was the most critical department and the top priority of the hotel, especially for those planning a hotel. As for the hotel.

There are so many things that the catering department needs to purchase and add. Not counting tableware and kitchen utensils, there are hundreds of ingredients and various medicinal materials for stews. The list fills up several large sheets of paper. Moreover, I am not a professional, so I have never even heard of the names of the above spices, let alone purchased them.

There are also hundreds of frozen products that need to be purchased in the hotel’s underground cold storage.

If you add in the dry goods from the north and the south, it would be even more countless. At first, Cao Minfang thought that managing a hotel was similar to running a nightclub. Looking at the housekeeping department, it was true that the furniture and linens in the guest rooms were only a few things. Anyone who has stayed in a hotel knows that it is not difficult to find other hotels.

It was only after Fatty Fu arrived that Cao Minfang finally understood. It turned out that the deepest water in this hotel was the catering department. Without Fatty Fu, she really couldn't do it. In their Hunan dialect, she just couldn't win. She thought I feel a little scared even thinking about it.

Lao Tan has renovated many hotels, and he is quite familiar with the hotel's doorways. He knows that Zhang Chen is a thin-skinned person, and it is not convenient for Lao Xie to tell him. Lao Tan reminded Cao Minfang that in a hotel, not only the catering department is the most complicated , the darkest and most problematic area is also the catering department, Xiao Cao, you have to keep an eye on it.

It's not that Fatty Fu is unreliable, what will happen, but if you don't keep a close eye on him, you are letting him go and forcing him to make mistakes.

Cao Minfang didn't understand this very well. She asked Lao Tan, why did he say that? Why did I force him to make mistakes?

It's very simple. Many times, it's not that Fatty Fu wants to make a mistake subjectively, but someone wants to tempt him to make a mistake. For example, the same person is giving away bird's nests and shark's fins, and the two people's things are of the same quality and price, and neither one has a kickback. , one is given a rebate of 3,000, who will you accept?

After receiving the rebate, the items are the same, and it seems that there is no loss to the hotel. At this time, is it difficult to choose? As long as you are human, most people will tend to accept those with rebates. This is normal, but after you receive the rebates, the quality of the next time you send it will be different from this time. Do you understand?

Cao Minfang nodded and understood.

Lao Tan said that we used to do renovations and projects, and it was the same way, so I kept a close eye on the procurement and acceptance, so that they had no chance. This was to help them.

I am only citing bird's nests and shark's fins. How much does the catering department purchase every month? Even if it is as small as rice, there will be such rebates. Do you know why a small restaurant requires the boss or the proprietress to purchase it by himself? Once it slips, the profit is gone.

Moreover, the catering department is also the largest consumer. It consumes every day. It is different from the housekeeping department. The housekeeping department only purchases two or three times a year. You can directly negotiate with the supplier yourself. But not the catering department. You can't say Talking to every vegetable seller is just talking to the vegetable seller. The price of your vegetables today will be different from that of tomorrow.

Therefore, you can only find ways to control loopholes in the system.

Cao Minfang listened and felt why it was so complicated. She looked at Lao Xie and asked, Mr. Xie, what about our past...

"Old Tan is right." Lao Xie said, "In the past, my brother was the one doing the purchasing. Even my brother would still get kickbacks. It's not that I didn't know, but he turned a blind eye. As my own brother, just give him money as a gift."

Cao Minfang suddenly realized.

"Fat Fu is not that ignorant, but Lao Tan is right, don't give anyone an opportunity to become a bad guy," Lao Xie said.

"The best way is that the person who has the power to decide what to use and what not to use is not responsible for the specific procurement. Fatty Fu knows his business. You can let him be the one who makes the decision, and he is not responsible for the procurement. The person responsible for the procurement is not responsible for the procurement. He doesn’t have the right to decide who to use, so he doesn’t dare to take arbitrary kickbacks or misquote prices,” Lao Tan and Cao Minfang said.

Zhang Chen was listening to what they were saying. He thought about how he had never had such troubles in several of his companies. He had delegated power directly to Zhao Zhigang, Haigen and Erhuo. They didn't seem to be like this either. Regarding the problem, it seems that I am just responsible for looking after the person. If I think the person is good, I can safely leave it to him.

When Zhang Chen was thinking like this, he thought about Yao Fen again. Didn't he think highly of her too? Something happened in the end. He also thought about what Zhao Xin said to him after Yao Fen's accident, and what Lao Tan meant. Much the same.

Zhang Chen felt a little confused as to whether he was right or wrong. When he thought about it carefully, he didn't even know whether he was lucky to have made his company so big without any major accidents. Is luck reliable?

Zhang Chen thought of something. At least, they have an independent financial center that supervises the finances of each place below. This is very effective, and the person in charge of the financial center is Xiao Zhao. This is what Lao Tan said, Xiao Zhao It’s the lady boss who does the shopping in the restaurant, what’s the difference?

It seems that up to now, he has developed a small restaurant management model. Thinking of this, Zhang Chen couldn't help laughing.

Think again about Liu Ligan and Meng Ping. Aren't they both using such an extensive management model? Is this a good or bad thing? Zhang Chen felt that he should have a good discussion with Liu Ligan, Tan Shuzhen and the others when he returned.

Cao Minfang took them to see the hotel staff dormitory that was still under construction. Zhang Chen and Lao Tan invited some of Lao Tan's comrades to dinner and asked them to take care of them in the future. Lao Tan also took Cao Minfang to the Yulin base to see to his old chiefs.

The Spring Festival of 2002 is on February 10th. Zhang Chen and the others have decided that the Banmutian Resort Hotel will start its trial operation on January 10th, 2002. Of course, Zhang Chen and his group of people must Come to the opening ceremony.

But at that time, it was still far away from the Spring Festival and it was the time when Sanya hotel business was at its slowest. Zhang Chen remembered it and told Cao Minfang that I would select the first batch of employees from each of our company’s units in Beijing, Shanghai and Hangzhou. Hundreds of employees stayed here for a week. Some of the problems in this hotel will only be discovered when it is in business and there are guests.

Cao Minfang said yes.

Lao Tan heard it from the side and said it was a good idea. I would call Mr. Liu and Mr. Tan right away.

Lao Tan walked away to make a phone call, and when he came back he told them that our company has also transferred a hundred outstanding employees from various branches to stay here for a week. This is a reward for the employees, and it is also a reception business for the hotel. .

Cao Minfang was very happy. She thought for a while and asked Zhang Chen and Lao Tan, the two bosses, if the two groups of people could be separated. In this way, I would have the basic customer flow for half a month, and I would not have two hundred customers concentrated. Together, other guests arrive, affecting the quality of the reception.

Zhang Chen and Lao Tan looked at each other and laughed. Lao Tan said yes, you are also very business-minded, okay, let's separate.

After everything in Sanya was arranged, Zhang Chen and Lao Tan returned to Hangzhou. People in Hangzhou were waiting for them anxiously. Liu Ligan organized everyone to have dinner in the big box of Tianxiang Building in the evening. Xiao Zhao When I arrived at the airport, I picked up Zhang Chen and Lao Tan and went directly to Tianxiang Tower.

Everyone listened to Zhang Chen's introduction to the hotel. Old Tang said, Brother, I have to arrange for dozens of people to come over and support me.

Qu Tianlin and Wei Wenfang said that they would also arrange for people from the company to come there. Wu Zhaohui said that the hotel had just opened and it must be popular. In the month before the Spring Festival, we will not stop people there.

Liu Bang, the emperor of the Han Dynasty, said, yes, yes, hotels are just like our nightclubs. Popularity when they first open is very important. When you first open, everyone is staring at you. If you are popular, others will follow. If it's deserted, then your place is going to die. We can send people to each of our stores.

Zhang Chen quickly said, thank you, thank you!

Wang Minsheng and Zhang Chen said, when it opened, I stayed there for a few days and taught your hotel’s pastry chef how to make cakes.

"That's great!" Zhang Chen said, "In this way, we can improve the quality of our hotel's Western pastry in one go."

Tan Shuzhen and Zhang Chen said: "Zhang Chen, there are some resources that you can use right away."

"What resources?" Zhang Chen asked.

"The VIP customers of the three stores in Hangzhou, Shanghai and Beijing, as well as your private customers, can directly become VIP customers of Sanya Banmutian Resort Hotel. The VIP cards of these three places can be used with the hotel. Enjoy a 20% discount, these people may not care about this discount, but they will care that it is the Banmutian Hotel." Tan Shuzhen said.

"Yes, on the other hand, we have our own hotel in Sanya, which will also make these customers feel that their status is more noble. Many of them may think of going to half an acre of land during the Spring Festival. hotel." Wei Wenfang said.

Everyone applauded in unison and thought Tan Shuzhen and Wei Wenfang's idea was good.

"Also, our hundreds of specialty stores below allow them to become of course VIP customers of the hotel. This can also enhance their awareness that they are members of Dabanmu Tian, ​​and they are also potential customers of the hotel." Tan Shuzhen said.

"Let's do this, Zhang Chen." Liu Ligan said, "Banmutian Resort Hotel will serve as the designated hotel for our Zhejiang Jinxiu Dadi Real Estate Co., Ltd., and our company's high-end customers, such as the owners of Peach Blossom Spring and West Lake Throne, will also serve as our designated hotel." How about the VIP customers of Banmutian Resort Hotel?”

"This is okay." Tan Shuzhen said.

"Also, in Sanya, no more than in other places, the opening of a Sanya hotel still requires an important person to cut the ribbon. When an important person goes, the leaders of the province and city will naturally accompany them. In this way, the hotel Its importance in Sanya suddenly increased.

"Here, I need to say hello to Sun Hou and ask him, Bitch Huang and the others to help. His side has been settled. Here in Hangcheng, you can ask Liu Chengcheng to come over. After all, he is the one who supports half an acre of your land. The company has grown up, and the Banmutian Hotel in Sanya has been completed. I think he will also be happy to cut the ribbon..."

Liu Ligan thought for a moment and said, "Forget it, I'll call Sun Hou later."

As Liu Ligan said, Xu Wenhui immediately shouted: "Then I will ask the junior sister..."

Liu Ligan scolded: "If Liu Chengcheng goes, you will report it, whether it will be your turn to get the junior sister or not will be a problem."

"Then I'll ask Qian Bao and the brothers from the provincial TV station to go together." Xu Wenhui said.

"That's pretty much it." Liu Ligan nodded.
