Chapter 242, the spring of Zhou Xingxing(1/2)
How to choose!
The nine bosses present looked at me and I looked at you, but none of them spoke.
Both methods given by Lei Weidong have advantages and disadvantages.
The advantage of choosing the first option is that not only can you get a lot of money, but you can also keep your reputation. You can work for a few more years or even pass it on to your sons and grandsons.
The downside is competition!
Although Lei Weidong said that he would not open a store within 500 meters of the store, the formula has been sold. After the other party makes food that tastes exactly the same, he will definitely open a large number of stores.
Even if a straight line distance of 500 meters is left, the threat cannot be underestimated, and the loss of customers has become a foregone conclusion.
Choose the second option!
The advantage is that you can make your own brand bigger and stronger, so that all people in Hong Kong can eat your own brand products, and earn more money.
The disadvantage is that it is easy for the magpie's nest to be taken over, and it is easy to squeeze out one's own company with the financial and material resources of the other party, resulting in the loss of both talents. This situation is common in Hong Kong, especially in the stock market, where many people are reduced to leeks.
The most troublesome thing for the nine bosses is that it seems impossible not to agree to the conditions given by Lei Weidong.
Because he is not only the boss of Oriental Group with financial advantages, but also the commander of Yau Tsim District and a big shot in the police force. Ordinary operators like himself would not dare to reason with the police.
With a little bit of tricks, everyone can't bear to eat and walk around.
"What do you think about whether to choose the first or the second cooperation model?" I watched the nine bosses discussing each other, making the conference room look like a vegetable market.
A hint of displeasure flashed across Lei Weidong's brows, and he reminded him.
"Mr. Lei, can I ask how you will use our formula after you get it?" Boss Li, who was still Li Ji, stood up and asked.
"I plan to open 600 restaurants." When Lei Weidong opened his mouth, the nine bosses sitting there were startled. "I have already found stores, mainly in Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, and in the New Territories.
Assistant, as for how it is distributed, you can look at this picture."
Without Lei Weidong's instructions, the secretary took out a huge map of Xiangjiang for everyone to see, with the locations of 600 restaurants marked on it.
Looking at the dense distribution map covering the entire Xiangjiang River, Boss Li and others were speechless. This is the power of capital, which is really crushing for individuals.
"Mr. Lei, I would like to ask, how do you plan to ensure quality with so many restaurants? The catering industry is different from industrial products. The same formula and the same raw materials will taste different when made by different people." Boss Li asked.
To be honest, as the boss of Li Ji, he has long wanted to sell his roast goose to all parts of Hong Kong and even north to the mainland, but the taste has always restricted him from making it bigger and stronger.
"I know this. The possibility of making the roast goose as perfect as Master Li's is very small." Lei Weidong nodded, admitting that what Boss Li said made sense.
"I adopt a production process like KFC's and set up a dedicated production center and distribution center. All food is produced in the production center and delivered to various stores from the distribution center.
I don’t have high requirements for taste, as long as it can reach 90% or even 80% of Li Ji’s roast goose level.”
"90% or even 80% will work."
Lei Weidong's words left Boss Li and others speechless. After getting their own formula, the possibility of achieving perfection is very small, and it is still easy to achieve 89% of the time. But in that case, what's the point of getting the formula.
Due to some special reasons, Xiangjiang has brought together famous food from all over the country. Boss Li and others are good at it, but there are many that are comparable to them on the market, and at most they are just a little bit behind.
"My catering group focuses on price. While satisfying the taste and ensuring quality, it uses mass production to reduce costs and achieve truly high quality and low price." Seeing that Boss Li and others did not understand, Lei Weidong laughed and said
.
"Mass production, high quality and low price!" Boss Li and others looked at me and me, feeling a little helpless.
What we make is street food, not a five-star hotel. While the quality is satisfactory, price is also the key. After all, the poor are still the majority in Xiangjiang, and there are a few people who are not short of money who eat on the streets.
"Everyone, what kind of cooperation method are you going to choose?" Lei Weidong struck while the railroad was hot.
"I chose the first one. I don't know, Mr. Lei, how much you paid for the recipe in my hand." Boss Zhong of Zhongji Pork Chop Rice made the first choice.
Boss Zhong is a bit old and can no longer work. He wants some money to support his retirement, so he doesn’t want to cooperate with Lei Weidong. He doesn’t want the big fish to eat the small fish and be swallowed up with the skin and bones by capital.
"There will be professionals to discuss the price with you. I just need to make sure that everyone cooperates in that way." Lei Weidong gestured to the secretary, and soon someone from the company's legal department came over and took Boss Zhong over to draft the terms and negotiate.
price.
I also choose the first option!
I also choose the first option!
Boss Zhong took the lead, and Boss Li and others also made their choices. As expected, everyone chose the first option, which was to sell the formula in their hands through a buyout.

"I have already analyzed it. The undercover agent who died was an undercover agent at Adam Smith International School, and the people studying in this school are all the children of consuls, diplomats, and representatives. If I were a terrorist
If it were a molecule, I would choose to act here."
In a small room with an area of about ten square meters, Zhou Xingxing, wearing shorts and a T-shirt, pointed at the information on the table and said confidently.
"What if I didn't guess correctly?" Chen Baixiang opened his mouth as he looked at the information about Adam Smith International School.
"If I don't guess correctly, I'll give you a slap in the face, no need to hide, I'm just kidding." Seeing Chen Baixiang fly into the corner with a swipe, Zhou Xingxing shook his head,
"I'll treat Brother Da to dinner tonight, and I'll make sure I get him a few glasses of wine."
"What happens after it's confirmed?"
"Of course I'll sign up after I'm sure." Zhou Xingxing shrugged and said, "I checked and found that this school is private and you can enter as long as you have money.
The board of directors is trying every possible means to reduce expenses. If the two of us don’t want a probationary salary, they will definitely charge it.”
In the evening, after giving Cao Dahua a few drinks, Zhou Xingxing lured out the undercover agents of the Wan Chai Police Station and the Political Department. The place where they were working was the Adam Smith International School.
So, the next day, Zhou Xingxing and Chen Baixiang walked into the office on the second floor of the Adam Smith International School office building with serious faces.
"Miss, who should I look for to apply for a job as a school janitor?" Zhou Xingxing asked, looking at the clerk in the office.
"If you are applying for a job as a school janitor, you should find Manager Jin."
"Manager Jin, is he the principal? I heard that his surname is also Jin. We need to talk to the principal about this matter."
"Principal Jin and Manager Jin are one person. He is responsible for all school affairs. Just go to the second office on the right upstairs." The clerk pointed to the upstairs and said.
"Thank you!" Zhou Xingxing nodded and came to Manager Jin's office with Chen Baixiang.
"Hello Manager Jin, we are here to apply for school janitor positions." Zhou Xingxing said as he put his file on Manager Jin's desk.
"What are your strengths when applying for a job as a school janitor?" Manager Jin raised his head, looked at Zhou Xingxing, and asked.
"Specialty, no money counts!" Zhou Xingxing said loudly.
"Forget it, of course, forget it." When he heard that Zhou Xingxing and Chen Baixiang didn't want money, Manager Jin's attitude immediately became enthusiastic.
"Axing, it's too much to ask for money. At the very least, food and accommodation must be included, otherwise we will drink from the northwest wind." Chen Baixiang reminded, "I'm not like you, who can live on just drinking water."
"I'm not an alien, how can I only drink water and not eat?" Zhou Xingxing looked at Manager Jin with some embarrassment, "I'm sorry, handsome guy, can you provide me with food and accommodation?"
We are both unemployed and don’t have much money. If we don’t provide food and shelter, we won’t be able to survive for a week.”
"It's okay, our school is not that stingy. Food and accommodation will definitely be included." Patting Zhou Xingxing on the shoulder, Manager Jin laughed and called the secretary in.
"I have two jobs as a cleaner. I work twelve hours a day from 8 a.m. to 8 a.m. The school provides me with three meals and free accommodation in the dormitory. I have a three-month probationary period.
There is no salary during the adaptation period, and the monthly salary after the probation period is 800."
The secretary took two copies of the agreement and sent them to Zhou Xingxing and Chen Baixiang.
"Yes, of course we will do it. These days, we can have a place to eat and hold events." Zhou Xingxing shouted exaggeratedly, took the contract, and signed his name on it.
"My brain is flooded, so I came to school with you as an undercover agent." Wearing cleaner's clothes, holding mops and buckets, Zhou Xingxing and Chen Bai looked at you, me, and I looked at you, sitting at the top of the stairs.
daze.
"Otherwise, we should go back and tell the director that this case cannot be solved. No matter how unlucky it is, we can only go back to the traffic department. It will be much better than now."
"If I want to get back to you, I have praised the director all the time. How can I lose face when I go back?" Zhou Xingxing shook his head, "But when I go back and take the position of inspector, and you become a junior police officer, don't blame me for not taking care of you."
"Stop talking, I'll just hang out with you until Christmas." Chen Baixiang shook the mop helplessly.
"What are you doing here?" Three figures appeared in front of Zhou Xingxing and Chen Baixiang. The leader, Zhou Xingxing, knew Zhou Xingxing, an agent of the Political Department, and had met several times at the scene of the operation.
"What else can I do? Work." Zhou Xingxing gestured to the mop in his hand and said arrogantly, "If I drag you down, I will lose my job as a police officer.
In order to survive, I can only come here to work."
"You can't work anywhere, you have to come here!" the leading agent said with a frown.
"How can you introduce me to a job? The salary can't be lower than that of the police and it doesn't require an academic degree." Zhou Xingxing shrugged, with an attitude of "you can tolerate me."
"you!"
"What are you doing? Let's go, Ah Le!" Putting the mop on their shoulders, Zhou Xingxing and Chen Baixiang walked upstairs with great pride.
"Who are these stinky guys?" Chen Baixiang asked, following Zhou Xingxing.
"Who else could it be? A few bastards from the Political Department." Zhou Xingxing turned around and made a face, irritating the other party.
"They are from the Political Department. They are undercover students at such an old age. It would be foolish for such an old student to become a terrorist."
"Who knows, this is an international school, anything can happen."
"That's right, Ah Xing, where are we cleaning down there?"
"Experimental classroom, hurry up and finish. Let's go have dinner."
"I'm going to eat after work. I'm a little hungry when you tell me." Patting his stomach, Chen Baixiang felt something was starting to change inside him, "Axing, do you know how to get to the experimental classroom?"
