Chapter 303: Only Thirty (People Are About to Leave)
Misia store.

There were no customers in the store, and Wang Manni was a little absent-minded, chatting with Xu Beibei.

After going out for a while, and having spent all the other bonuses on the cruise ship, I originally thought I could catch a golden turtle, but unexpectedly I caught a sea king.If I don't work anymore, I'll really have to drink the northwest wind. I have to go to Hong Kong for training next month, and my credit card will be overdrawn again.

However, once you get back from training and get promoted to deputy store manager, your monthly salary will be several thousand more, which should relieve some of the pressure.

"Hey~, Nini, what are you thinking about?" Xu Beibei waved her hand in front of Wang Manni's eyes, interrupting Wang Manni's thoughts: "You haven't said who the man was last time! You and him What’s the relationship?”

"Just an ordinary guest," Wang Manni came back to her senses and smiled awkwardly: "What can I have to do with him?"

"No, you two must have a story," Xu Beibei blinked, somewhat disbelieving: "There's something wrong with the way you look at him."

"Haha~," Wang Manni forced a smile and said, "What did I look at him? That's because you were dazzled."

"Hmph!" Xu Beibei curled her lips: "If you don't want to say it, don't say it. By the way, today... the store manager is here, hurry up and get in position."

"Ah? Let's talk later."

Wang Manni looked back and saw that the store manager Mary was walking in from the door. She didn't care about chatting anymore and hurriedly walked back to her seat.

Looking at Mary walking towards her, Wang Manni stood up straight with a smile on her face: "Hello, store manager! Are you here to patrol the store today?"

"Hmm~," Mary glanced at Wang Manni and smiled, then walked towards the counter: "I have been busy with the business of merging the store in Chengdu in the past few months. I am so busy that I am exhausted. Fortunately, this store has Tracy. Keep watching for me."

"Actually, I have always wanted to thank you for specially approving my promotion report. I heard that you personally delivered it to the headquarters." Wang Manni sincerely thanked Mary.

Mary smiled and patted Wang Manni on the shoulder and said: "You have given me credit. Whether you can take the position of deputy store manager depends on you. Work now, and we will have a staff dinner in the evening. Say it again."

"Okay, thank you, store manager!" Wang Manni nodded vigorously: "I will definitely live up to your expectations."

…………

At night, in a Korean barbecue restaurant.

The store closed early today, and a group of Misia employees were having a lively dinner.

Xu Beibei held the barbecue in one hand, looked at Mary, and asked curiously: "Will there be another joint store this year?"

Mary smiled, shook her head and said, "It's hard to say, it depends on the situation in the second half of the year. However, I'm not very optimistic."

"By the way," Mary suddenly remembered, "Did that clothes thief come back later?"

"We've caught you on the spot, why are you here?" Wang Manni was speechless thinking: "You said, you are so rich, why are you still looking for this kind of excitement?"

"Pervert!" Wang Yongliang said: "The richer you are, the more eccentricities you have. It's scary to fall in love with them."

"Love you!?"

"We all love you, okay?"

Several female colleagues rushed over.

"Okay, okay," Mary knocked on the cup and said with a smile: "While none of you have drunk too much, let me tell you the theme of today's party. Next month will be the golden sales month. At that time, each of you will have a hard time. So as for today’s meal, I will encourage everyone in advance and come on.

As for the current situation, I don’t need to say more. Everyone of you should be very clear. The stores are implementing the last elimination system.Everyone, although we have an advantage in first-tier cities, the requirements for our sales are higher, so every one of you, please cheer up, don’t be complacent, and work harder! "

"understood!"

"understand!"

"Know it!"

The clerks responded one after another.

"Okay, be quiet for a moment." Mary waved her hand and continued: "What about the second one? Because our dear Trish is leaving his job soon, so let's just say goodbye to him today, right?"

"what?!"

Several colleagues looked at each other, feeling a little sudden.

"Did you already know this?" Xu Beibei turned to look at Wang Manni, who looked calm, and felt somewhat clear in her heart.

"Well, that's right." Wang Manni nodded slightly and whispered.

She knew as soon as she got off the cruise ship half a month ago that if Trish didn't leave her job, there would be no room for her.

Glancing at Wang Manni, Mary raised her cup and greeted a group of subordinates with a smile: "Come on, we have to get her drunk today."

"Due to my personal reasons, I can't continue to fight side by side with you all, so why don't you guys try your best? I'll do it first as a tribute!" Trish smiled and raised the cup.

"Ding~,"

"come on! Come on!"

"I did it, you can do whatever you want!"

Several cups collided together, making a crisp sound, and Wang Manni drank the wine in the cup with a smile.

"Hey, then Tracy resigned, isn't the assistant store of our store free up?" Wang Hao raised his eyebrows.

"Then it's not your turn!" Sister Li said angrily.

Wang Hao curled his lips: "It's not your turn then."

"Store manager, after I leave my job, can my position as assistant store be filled by the supervisor of our store?" Trish looked at the store manager and said with a smile.

Listening to Tracy's words, Wang Manni felt a little disgusted. Tracy knew that Mary belonged to her. What did she mean by saying this in front of everyone?Thinking that Trish didn't steal a big deal from him last time, is he giving himself eye drops?

Mary smiled noncommittally: "It depends on the performance of each of them."

"You heard me~, come on!" Trish took a sip of wine, with an unclear smile on her face, and handed the cup to another female colleague, Nancy: "Nancy, come here, pour me some wine. I want to pour it." Full!"

Hearing this, Wang Manni's hands froze, and then returned to normal.

"I will come back to buy things. You have to serve me well!" With a smile on her face, Cui Xi raised her cup and touched it with Wang Manni.

"Of course, welcome!" Wang Manni squeezed out a smile, picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp.

…………

After the party, Wang Manni and Cui Xi got into the same taxi because they were on the way.

Tracy drank a lot today, and her face was still red now, and she was drunk: "I'm very happy to see that you are getting better and better." "You will get better and better, too." Wang Manni smiled. , asked: "Deputy store manager, why did you suddenly resign? Was it your own initiative or the request of the head office?"

Wang Manni knew that Tracy was leaving her job, but she really didn't know why.

"Didn't I have a physical examination some time ago?" The smile on Tracy's face suddenly faded, her tone was a little heavy, and she pointed at her neck: "It was found that there is a bump here."

"Ah?!" Wang Manni opened her eyes wide when she heard this and looked at Trish in disbelief, cancer?
"what's up?"

Trish pretended to be relaxed and said: "What about the specifics... The pathology of the biopsy is still waiting, but it should be that word, it can't escape."

Looking at Wang Manni as if she was about to cry, Cui Xi pinched Wang Manni's face, smiled and said: "Why are you like this? The doctor said that I am the lucky one among the misfortunes. This is the best thing." He's kind of lazy. As long as he cuts cleanly and handles the situation well, I'll be just like a normal person. It's just this physical strength and energy that can't be consumed too much, so I thought about it and quit."

"The doctor said so, you will be fine," Wang Manni couldn't care less about the grudge in her heart now, and comforted: "You must be optimistic."

"How optimistic I am, look at me...," Trish gestured and forced a smile.

After a while, Trish put away her smile and said slowly: "But I just feel that I would feel more at ease if I leave the position of deputy store manager in your hands. Do you want to fight for it?"

"I...," Wang Manni swallowed, but still didn't tell Trish about her training next month. She shook her head and said, "Can I do it? I've just been promoted to supervisor not long ago."

"What can't you do? You have me. I will definitely fight with the store manager before I leave." Cuixi patted her chest, looked at Wang Manni, her eyes were full of 'sincerity', and said.

Wang Manni felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to tell Tracy the truth. As soon as the words came out of her mouth, she said again: "Then you were drinking just now?"

"Of course, one drink will save you one meal, maybe...,"

Wang Manni hugged Cui Xi's arm tightly, feeling mixed emotions in her heart.

...............

Grand Hyatt Mansion, 1901.

In the living room, Zhao Jingyu knelt on the sofa and pressed the shoulders of Yi Huawei, who was lying on her lap.

"Huawei, that Gu Jia is quite interesting."

"Oh, what's wrong?" Yi Huawei half-squinted his eyes and said with a smile, "Did you go to her house this afternoon?"

"Well," Zhao Jingyu pressed Yi Huawei's thick shoulders gently and gently: "It doesn't feel very...,"

"Haha~" Listening to Zhao Jingyu racking his brains to think of adjectives, Yi Huawei smiled: "A bit dismissive?"

"It's not a slight, it's just a bit perfunctory." Zhao Jingyu said with a smile: "I always feel that her smile is...a bit stiff."

"She didn't just do this to you." Yi Huawei patted Zhao Jingyu's hand and said with a smile, "She also attacked Mrs. Wang on the 21st floor in person."

"Really?" Zhao Jingyu asked curiously: "Then her behavior is a bit unwise."

"How should I put it?" Yi Huawei smiled: "Let me pick a few things I know and tell you..."

After listening to Yi Huawei's story about Gu Jia's deeds, Zhao Jingyu looked at Yi Huawei with a strange look in her eyes. After a while, she said, "She did something wrong... in these few things."

"Oh?" Yi Huawei raised his eyebrows: "Then tell me what's wrong?"

"As far as I'm concerned, Gu Jia has a little too much ambition and too little skill." Zhao Jingyu smiled: "Isn't it right for her to tear Mrs. Wang with her hands? As far as Shan Yutai is concerned, although I don't know Mrs. Yu's family situation, according to the As you said, Mrs. Yu only gets 10,000+ pocket money every month, and buying a second-hand bracelet shouldn't be too rich.

But after Mrs. Yu set the thread for her, Gu Jia didn't say anything at all?If it were me, not to mention the shares of Yutai Company, I would still need at least a [-]% commission.Without benefiting Mrs. Yu, how can she maintain her relationship and continue to get orders? Just rely on her to say a few nice words? "

In fact, what Zhao Jingyu wanted to say was that Gu Jia's eyes were a bit too high. When they met this afternoon, Zhao Jingyu could clearly see the trace of disdain in Gu Jia's eyes.

But Zhao Jingyu couldn't figure out Yi Huawei's attitude. Zhao Jingyu didn't believe it if Yi Huawei was attracted to Gu Jia, because if a man is really interested in a woman, he can definitely tell it in his eyes.But if Yi Huawei has no idea about Gu Jia, why does he pay so much attention to her?Do you know everything about her?
"Intellectuals are so noble." Yi Huawei laughed and said, "You do have some eyesight, but I underestimated you."

"You described it really aptly." Zhao Jingyu smiled and said, "It seems that I have such a feeling."

Yi Huawei held Zhao Jingyu's hand and held it in his hand: "I want to move the Misia headquarters to Magic City. What do you think? Cut down on a few stores in Hong Kong."

"what?"

Zhao Jingyu was stunned for a moment, and let Yi Huawei knead the catkins, frowning slightly, and then said after a while: "Can you tell me why you have such an idea?"

Because Yi Huawei said that he wanted to go to Misia, Zhao Jingyu also read some information about Misia in the past few days and knew a little about Misia.

The headquarters of Misia was previously established in France. In 12, it moved its focus to Hong Kong. It has been seven years since then. In the past seven years, Misia's performance in Hong Kong has been booming, but it has declined slightly since this year. If the headquarters were moved at this time, , will it cause personnel turmoil in Hong Kong?

"Have you read the news? The economic situation in the general environment is not good. The number of inbound tourists in Hong Kong changed from an increase in May to a decrease in June."

Yi Huawei raised the corners of his mouth, smiled softly, and said:

"The situation in July was even more severe. The number of inbound tourists in Hong Kong fell by 30% in the first two weeks of the month, and dropped by a further 40% in the third week. This directly led to repeated plunges in Hong Kong hotel prices and occupancy rates. In August last year, the occupancy rate was still 8% %, this year it has dropped to 90%, and many hotels have had to cut their prices in half.

As of the middle of this month, the tourism industry has been hit hard, and the retail industry has also suffered.

According to Misia's 2019 semi-annual report, sales in mainland China surged 25% year-on-year in the second quarter, while sales in Hong Kong recorded double-digit declines, and even luxury brands closed stores in Hong Kong during the period. Got 6 rooms.

Analysts warned during a conference call that full-year sales and earnings per share would be even lower than the company's lowest expectations. "

"However, for now, Hong Kong still has many market advantages that are difficult to replace." After a moment of silence, Zhao Jingyu said:

“Hong Kong’s internationalization and management level have always made it regarded as the strategic center of China’s fashion market in the traditional sense.

Moreover, having enough international brands has become one of the important reasons why Hong Kong attracts cross-border e-commerce.Also, as an international free trade port, Hong Kong has higher costs and flexibility in taxation and warehousing.As a luxury product, Misia is more suitable in Hong Kong because duty-free shops have greater advantages.

Moreover, if the headquarters is moved to Shanghai, I am worried that those executives will quit. After all, they have a large customer list. "

"I heard that the authorities are planning to establish a tax-free zone in the south,"

Yi Huawei smiled, but his understatement was like a thunder. Zhao Jingyu was stunned. She knew what kind of impact this policy would have on Hong Kong's luxury goods industry.

Hong Kong’s luxury retail industry is very developed, and in fact, most of its customers are from the mainland.Whether they are purchasing agents or independent travelers, they are the key to supporting Hong Kong's retail industry and tertiary industry.Because there are a large number of customers, practitioners can make money, and real estate developers can receive higher rents.

Many people cannot imagine how high rents are in Hong Kong.Toy king Cai Zhiming used to own a multi-storey shop on Russell Street in Hong Kong. The annual rental income of this shop used to be 1.08 million.This is definitely a number that many people in the mainland cannot imagine.Many people may wonder what kind of business a merchant must do to earn so much money every year to pay rent.The previous tenant was the famous luxury brand: PRADA.

Of course, the reason why Yi Huawei wants to replace Misia and leave sales channels in Hong Kong and abroad is mainly to launch domestic luxury goods to the outside world, and he is not afraid of those sales jumping ship.As for the senior executives, there is no need to worry. Even if they don't change jobs, Yi Huawei will have to find a way to drive them away and replace them with his own people.

Liu Mengyun was still too slow. It had been almost half a month and she still hadn't settled the personnel matters in Hong Kong. If Zhao Jingyu had ideas, Yi Huawei was ready to ask Zhao Jingyu to help her.

If Zhao Jingyu had the ability, Misia would be left to her son in the future.Of course, the prerequisite is that you have your own seeds.
