Seeing Chu Tianqi storm out, Tang Qing chuckled lightly and turned to Yang Kai, "Mr. Yang, sorry for the unpleasant scene."
"Hehe, that’s normal. I have seen many such people. They are great at making a fuss but lack real skills. Just like the ones at my previous company." Yang Kai said with a bitter smile, reminding him of the situation at his previous company.
When the boss’s son graduated and returned to take over, he learned from him for two years, and then-----he had to step aside. After being kicked out, he was despondent for a period of ti. Having served there for nearly a decade, it was impossible not to feel emotionally attached.
However, the mont he was kicked out, he realized that he was an outsider after all. A phrase he had heard before rang true: a company always encourages you to treat it as your own ho – to care for it, struggle for it, strive for it and devote yourself to it.
Yet they constantly train new people in readiness to replace you anyti. How ironic! At that mont, he also envied the employees of major state-owned enterprises. Although the system is rigid, people are not dismissed casually, at least to a certain extent, it’s more stable than private enterprises.
"Then let your actions make them regret." Tang Qing laughed.
"Whether or not Boss Tang’s capabilities and plan can convince remains to be seen. Even a salary of 300,000 per annum won’t keep if I’m not persuaded." Yang Kai said sternly. Frankly speaking, he wasn’t optimistic about this company. It wasn’t just about money, the managent was far too young.
This was not an internet company that emphasizes speed, decisiveness, and creativity. Many problems in the fast-paced developnt and expansion of the internet are covered up and offset. But for the apparel industry, the capital is one aspect. The requirents for managent, positioning, strategy are extrely high, and the demand for experience is even higher. It’s not just about having money.
He has seen many such companies—one starts with the ambition of being a top-brand but ends up becoming a countless mishmash of OEM peddlers. Even if a lot of capital cos in, without continuous substantial capital, the progress will eventually stagnate. It’s not like an internet company where all you need is an office, server, and software to get started. An apparel brand, especially a direct-sale one, has a high requirent on every aspect.
Especially considering this company plan to establish an international brand, he really wanted to say, dream on. Without proper reasoning, he would not involve himself in this shallow water, playing survival gas with Tang Qing and his group of fishes, which, in his view, were destined to be caught and eaten.
"Haha, good, that’s candid. You don’t have to worry about money in the company. We can do as you said and start trying to sell online first, lay a good foundation. After the Chinese New Year, there will be at least one shop opening in every county in the province, at least two in every county-level city and five in prefecture-level cities, and more than ten shops will open in provincial capitals. Provincial capitals in other provinces will also be included in the first batch of opening plans, with five shops in each provincial capital.
What I need now is for the entire company to manage these shops, the coordination and product issues. I don’t want to have nothing to sell in the end, or be selling rubbish." Tang Qing laughed, and after hearing Yang Kai, he was even more satisfied. He didn’t want a manager who poorly executed and lacked ambitions and only joined for the two hundred thousand annual salary.
"Boss Tang, that’s going to require a lot of money." Yang Kai said, looking skeptically at Tang Qing. He had beco aware of the possibility of major investnts from the other party. However, he was uncertain about the amount of money that could be injected.
"Don’t worry, after the new year, I will invest no less than 30 million. That should be enough for a while, if it’s not enough, we’ll see. As for the TV ads, we don’t have to rush. Once we have more or less opened the first batch of shops, we will start advertising on major TV stations, money is not a problem." Tang Qing laughed.
As for the shops in other provincial capitals, they are part of the second phase of opening plan. Initially, the power was not strong enough. Here in his province, they had Liu Qian to take care of things, which would save a lot of effort and money. However, in other provinces, they had to invest heavily in opening shops as per normal.
They could only wait until the promotional results of the first batch were out before deciding whether to open the second batch. After all, opening too many shops all at once would be extrely costly. In his view, the implentation of the first batch of plans could cost up to several hundreds of millions, or even more than one billion.
But doesn’t matter, it’s just money. With his system, which is a banking system, money is a trivial matter. Once it gets bigger, collateral loan is also an option, there are nurous financing channels.
Even if things get desperate, they can wait for the system to open currency right next ti. Regardless of which country’s currency, helping them launder money could earn him a lot of money. As for his own country, it is better to be honest and upright.
"Uh, in that case, I am willing to join your company." Though surprised, Yang Kai quickly collected himself and responded. He was still amazed at the promised investnt of 30 million. He had thought that the most the other party could put out was a few million at best. How much money did his family have to be able to afford such profligacy?
But that was none of his business. What he was thinking about now was how to prove his worth. As for whether Boss Tang would one day turn the tables, he didn’t have the luxury to worry about that now. If he could build up a brand in his own hands, he would be very happy. This has been his dream for a long ti, just like parents towards their children, it doesn’t matter how they turn out, as long as they are healthy and safe.
