Chapter 159 Specific Measures of the Alliance
After Cao Zhihua looked around at the bosses, he said:
“How to set the price is actually very simple, that is, every boss sitting here should come up with an internal price and a market price.

Then we will meet together at the next meeting to finalize it.

Because this is related to the actual costs and income of each company and each boss, it is not determined by whatever I say.

The only request I can make is that for all the bosses here, we must ensure that we make money while also making sure that other bosses here make money. At the same time, our products must be competitive in the market.

Only in this way can our alliance have driving force and grow stronger.Boss Zhuang, what do you think? "

As a highly educated elite with a doctoral degree, after listening to Cao Zhihua's explanation, Zhuang Zhongwen looked around at his peers with stern eyes, then looked at Cao Zhihua with admiration and said:
“It’s no wonder that Mr. Cao was able to rise to prominence in a short period of time and quickly became the richest man in Hong Kong Island.

Just by looking at the wisdom you displayed today and by drawing inferences from one example, we can see how talented and far-sighted you are.

Zhuang is convinced of this, and in the future Zhuang is willing to follow Cao Cao's lead and go all out to contribute his own strength to the industrial chain alliance. "

Cao Zhihua looked at Zhuang Chongwen in surprise. You must know that Chinese people doing business in this era are the most concerned about credibility.
Especially the weight of the commitment made in such a public place is very heavy.
In his own opinion, Zhuang Chongwen is a very capable person. If his character is good, Cao Zhihua would not mind paying him a favor.
After all, the stronger your allies are, the stronger you are. Powerful checks and balances are not used now. You must first occupy the market and make the alliance bigger before you can think about these things. What needs to be done most now is how to make the alliance bigger and how to monopolize it. market.So he nodded at Zhuang Zhongwen and continued to ask:
"Bosses, do you still have any questions about this issue?"

Everyone here is the elite of Hong Kong Island in this era. Through this answer, you have fully understood what the industrial chain alliance is.

Everyone is extremely excited now. To run a business in this era, you need to compete with countless people in a chaotic society to get ahead.

It is difficult for short-sighted people to survive in the market. If you want to successfully maintain a business in Hong Kong Island in this era, the requirements for people are much higher than the requirements for doing business in peacetime in previous lives.

So now all the bosses here are very excited, knowing that this may be an opportunity to change their destiny. Some are even so excited that they all look at Cao Zhihua seriously and shake their heads, saying that there is no problem.

After seeing that everyone had no questions, Cao Zhihua continued:
“The second point I want to make is how our industry chain alliance builds a brand.

The first thing we need to do is to make our brand the first choice for all Hong Kong people who want to buy building materials.

So I am going to take the path of combining online and offline.

Offline, I plan to build a building materials wholesale market for our industry chain alliance here in North Point.
Every company in our alliance needs to open a flagship display store in this building materials wholesale market.

Through huge and magnificent flagship display stores,
Improve the reputation of all products in our industry chain and create an image of our products as high quality, low price, and super cost-effective.
Strengthen the awareness, recognition and reputation of our industrial chain alliance products among all Hong Kong Island citizens, so that we can quickly increase our market share.

Online it’s very simple, just throw money.

After our material wholesale market opens, the one-stop shopping platform for building materials we have created and the products we sell will

By buying out the headlines of all newspapers, radio and television stations in Hong Kong for half a year,

Let our building materials wholesale market and the products of all our owners be known and accepted by all Hong Kong Island residents in the shortest possible time.

This is the second point I want to talk about. Do you have any questions? "

All the bosses present were stunned by Cao Zhihua's generosity. After Cao Zhihua asked the question, they clapped wildly.

Then Boss Sun, the gypsum seller, raised his hand and said:

"Hello, Director Cao, I am Sun Youyu, the owner of Qingshan Gypsum Factory. The method you just mentioned is very grand and will be of great help to our building materials industry. However, the largest employer in our gypsum industry is not individual citizens, but real estate developers. And the decoration company. So I want to ask you if you have any other plans."

After hearing what Sun Youyu said, Cao Zhihua nodded to Boss Sun with a smile and said:

"The business that all of us here run covers all materials in the building materials industry on the market. Naturally, some are in the terminal market and some are in the supply market. I have plans for these. Boss Sun, I plan to put down the third point of this plan. It talks about it, how about we focus on this topic first, and I’ll answer your question later, what do you think?”

When Sun Youyu heard Cao Zhihua say that there was a plan, he felt relieved. As long as there was a solution, otherwise such a powerful alliance would be a big loss if he couldn't even drink enough soup, so he quickly said:
"Okay, okay, okay, Director Cao, I will tell you later that there is no problem. I have no other questions."

After seeing Sun Youyu finish speaking, Boss Shi, who runs the stone business, quickly raised his hand to signal, and then said:
"Hello, Director Cao, I am Shi Lei from Daweishan Stone Factory. The building materials wholesale market and advertising promotion you just mentioned are very good and a big deal. All of our bosses present will benefit greatly, but this investment will be very important." I would like to ask Mr. Cao how to calculate the proportion of this investment?"

Cao Zhihua saw that Shi Lei's muscles were very strong, and there were two scars on both sides of his forehead. He looked like a ruthless man, and he was also very lucky. He had been chopped several times on his head, but he still didn't die.

But Cao Zhihua knew that this was sand, gravel, and the current situation of the cement industry. People are not ruthless and unstable. This did not affect Cao Zhihua's mood, so he said:
“Since I am taking the lead in establishing our industrial chain alliance, I will definitely support everyone in working together to make it bigger.

This is what I think. It is most appropriate for bosses to use their own funds to increase production capacity and expand the market. Only in this way can we have the foundation to become bigger and stronger.

The building materials wholesale market is funded by Zhihua Real Estate and is provided free of charge to all the bosses here for two years. I believe that our alliance will be able to conquer the entire building materials market in Hong Kong Island in two years. After two years, everyone will Just pay me rent according to normal market conditions.

As for the funds for online advertising and promotion, our Zhihua Group can also advance the investment. The accounts in this area are open and transparent, and everyone will know it at a glance.This cost is evenly shared among our 26 companies, but all companies can settle the money to Zhihua Group within two years after the advertising promotion ends. Bosses, what do you think of this plan? "

The boss sitting here took a deep breath, he is really rich and powerful, what is the plan?Of course the plan is good. All the upfront costs have been invested by Zhihua Group. The risks for the bosses here are not high at all.

What?You said opening a flagship store and advertising expenses are not risks?
Is there a risk of choking to death even if you drink cold water?The richest man spends so much energy and invests money to bring everyone together to make money. There is an obvious opportunity to make big money. If he is not willing to take such a risk, what kind of business is there?Go eat shit.

In the impression of Chinese people in previous generations, Hong Kong Islanders, especially Hong Kong Island businessmen, had a very strong gambling habit. They had always lived in a capitalist society where the jungle prevailed, and they knew very well that everything they did was risky.The people of Hong Kong are very simple in their thinking. If you want to succeed in anything, how can you succeed if you don't gamble?

Thunderous applause erupted in the conference room, and everyone was very satisfied with the solution proposed by Cao Zhihua.

Cao Zhihua is naturally not the one who is taken advantage of. Once the alliance becomes bigger and monopolizes the Hong Kong Island market, the building materials wholesale market will not only be a very valuable asset, but also a very valuable asset.

It is also a very important starting point for controlling the industrial chain alliance. If you master the building materials wholesale market, you will have the trump card to replace people and flip the table. You will not be able to manage the entire alliance simply by relying on shares, prestige, and means.

As for this fund, it may be a bit of a strain for some of the bosses sitting here.
But for people with deep pockets like Cao Zhihua, it is not a problem at all. This is also a kind of resource exchange.

Everyone uses Cao Zhihua's funds to develop their own business and make more money.And Cao Zhihua uses everyone's resources to monopolize the market, enhance his power and prestige, and increase his family's high-quality fixed assets. This is a win-win situation.

After seeing that no one had any other opinions, Cao Zhihua took a sip of tea and continued:

"Then let me talk about the third point. After we establish the industrial chain alliance, we will subdivide more than 18 streets in 4000 districts on Hong Kong Island.

Then everyone drew lots and distributed it to each boss sitting here.

What every boss sitting here needs to do is to ensure that there is a store of our industry chain alliance on every street.
This street store is responsible for displaying our industry chain products and taking sales orders.

You can persuade others to invest in opening a store to join our industry chain brand. Franchisees only need one store to bring in a batch of goods from our industry chain for display. Any orders received by these stores in the future can be delivered by all our companies. Just the goods.

It is equivalent to lowering the entry threshold for our building materials industry, allowing more people to participate in the terminal sales of our industry chain, and helping everyone sitting here to sell goods.

The truth is very simple. The better each boss here does in this link, the more all the bosses here will make.Does anyone have any questions about this? "

When Zhuang Zhongwen heard Cao Zhihua's market sinking plan, he was immediately shocked. He just felt that with Cao Zhihua's business brain, it would be difficult not to make money.

When the others heard Cao Zhihua's plan, they discussed it with each other in low voices, a little worried.

When Cao Zhihua saw everyone discussing again, he knew that this proposal was difficult for everyone, so he was not in a hurry, lit a cigar, drank tea and smoked, while waiting for everyone to ask questions after the private discussion.

After a while, Boss Wang from the river sand industry raised his hand and said:
"Hello, Director Cao, I am Wang Yi from Feiyanghesha. Thank you very much for your support and giving me the opportunity to join the industrial chain alliance. I have two questions for you to ask."

Cao Zhihua looked at Wang Yi, who was covered in scars. He was another ruthless man. He nodded and said:

"Boss Wang, you can ask any questions you have, and I will try my best to give you an answer."

Wang Yi worked his way up from the bottom, so he naturally knew the importance of this opportunity, which was even related to the fate of his entire family. After taking a deep breath, he said:

"Director Cao, you may not know that all the river sand in Hong Kong Island comes from China, and most of these goods were taken away by Mr. Huo. If the business expands, what I am most worried about is that my company has There are not enough goods.
Secondly, it is naturally a very good idea to invite people to open our franchise stores, but what will happen if we cannot complete one franchise store on each street? "

After hearing Wang Yi's question, Cao Zhihua began to think deeply. It was related to the interests of everyone present. Now everyone dared not speak out for fear of interrupting Cao Zhihua's thinking. The conference room fell silent for an instant.

Cao Zhihua, who had been calculating in his mind for a long time, finally said:
"Boss Wang's problem is very complicated, and it is also the current situation. The source of the goods is blocked. It is definitely difficult to expand the business. There is no doubt that it is difficult.
Of course, there is no way to solve it, but the investment will be relatively large. "

River sand from Hong Kong Island has always been in short supply. It is used by real estate developers and ordinary people in the market. The market is very large.

What troubles Wang Yi the most is the supply of goods. It is a rare opportunity to have such a good opportunity today to have a meeting with the richest man in Hong Kong Island.
Wang Yi, knowing that the opportunity was inevitable, raised this issue decisively. Regardless of whether there was a way or not, he would strike first and then talk about it. As a result, he heard Cao Zhihua say that the problem could be solved.
I couldn't help myself with my excitement, and said excitedly:

"Director Cao, no matter how high the cost, as long as the problem can be solved, I can do it."

Cao Zhihua thought for a while and finally expressed his thoughts:
"Boss Wang, in fact, judging from the domestic support for Mr. Huo, it is basically impossible to figure out the river sand industry, because the cost of domestic river sand arriving at the port is very low.

But it is not a big problem to expand the supply of goods and let Boss Wang expand his business and market.

I'm just afraid that by then, Boss Wang's market will become bigger. Without the market, Boss Huo may lose more than he gains if there is a price war. Boss Wang had better think it over carefully first.

As for franchisees opening stores, this is definitely a top priority for our industry chain alliance, and it is also a matter that we all need to focus on.

From now on, at 5 a.m. on the 10th of every month, in this conference room, all the bosses of our industry chain alliance need to come and hold meetings at scheduled times.

Discuss the development and current situation of our industrial chain alliance and solve some emerging problems for all bosses.

As for franchise stores, this is what I think about it. The alliance gives each owner half a year to develop his own franchisees. After the time expires, no matter how many franchise stores we develop, our alliance will adopt a unified stance and policy to promote this matter.

As for how to promote it, it’s just that everyone sitting here, we all spend money together, and we will open our stores to every street in Hong Kong Island. What questions do you have? "
