Rebirth of the Great Era 1993

January 21, 1997, today is Tuesday.

Early in the morning, Zhang Xuan rushed to No. 228 Tianhe Road with Du Shuangling, Wen Hui and Zou Qingzhu.

Zhang Xuan got out of the car and said to the three of them: You can stroll around by yourselves while I go to the meeting first.

Du Shuanglingyan replied with a smile: Go and do your work, don't worry about us.

In the morning, he first went to the Finance Department to discuss with Li Mei, Wang Li, Xu Shengli, Qiu Ya, and Peng Zhiyong the capital expenditures for various projects in Yangcheng, Shanghai and Beijing in 1997.

Especially in Yangcheng, the second phase of the Yintai Commercial Complex Center project is coming to an end. The hotel and office buildings are currently progressing well and the tasks have been completed as planned.

If all goes well, next summer, that is, the summer vacation of 1998, the comprehensive center in Yangcheng will be completed and officially opened.

After 10 o'clock, the meeting entered another stage, the summary report.

Qiu Ya first made a report: Since its opening, the average daily number of visitors to Shanghai Yintai Mall has been stable at 460,000.

In the days approaching the end of the year, passenger traffic has skyrocketed, with the peak number of visitors reaching 850,000.

From July 1st to now, the cumulative transaction volume in more than half a year has reached 2.013 billion yuan, and the gross profit from the mall's shop rental and self-operation totals 387 million yuan.

After excluding operating and other expenses, the mall achieved a net profit of 198 million yuan in the first half of the year. The mission assigned by Mr. Zhang was successfully completed.

Upon hearing this data, Zhang Xuan and Li Mei looked at each other and applauded.

Next, Xu Shengli and Peng Zhiyong also made relevant summary reports on Yangcheng and Shanghai Stock Exchange.

Xu Shengli said: In 1996, the annual sales of Yangcheng Yintai Mall exceeded 3.4 billion yuan, with a gross profit of 630 million yuan and a net profit of 276 million yuan. It was basically the same as in 1995.

Hearing Ping Ping, the conference room suddenly fell silent.

Nowadays, the domestic economy is developing rapidly, people's consumption level is increasing day by day, and the situation is excellent. However, Yangcheng's revenue is stagnant. How can this sound like a sign of lack of progress?

Seeing everyone looking at him, Xu Shengli felt the pressure and explained: Last August, the Tianhe Mall next door opened, which took away a small part of the passenger flow.

Zhang Xuan asked: How is the situation at Tianhe Mall?

Xu Shengli was well prepared for this and submitted an Investigation Report on Tianhe Mall to Zhang Xuan, Li Mei and others.

This report is very detailed, with a total of 9 pages.

After reading this, Zhang Xuan breathed a sigh of relief. Although Tianhe Mall diverted some of the customer traffic, it simply could not make ends meet, with a loss of more than 11 million in the first half of the year.

Seeing that Sun Jian and his son planned to sell Tianhe Mall and devote themselves to transforming into residential real estate, Li Mei became interested and asked: How reliable is it?

Xu Shengli said: One hundred percent, Sun Jian has publicly released the news, but no one cares.

Hearing this, everyone here understood that with Zhuyu from Yintai Mall in front, even wealthy people would not dare to take over Tianhe Mall now.

After all, the economic size of Yangcheng is here now, and the amount involved in shopping mall transactions is not a small amount, and no one dares to gamble rashly.

Moreover, the two malls are so close to each other, but they are completely different in scale, design, positioning and operation.

The tens-billion-dollar Intime Complex Commercial Center is known as the first in the country and the top in Asia. It is comparable to Xiangjiang Central and Tokyo Ginza. How could a small Tianhe Mall be able to shake it?

It is said that there is no harm without comparison. Now Tianhe Mall is completely hung up and beaten, and is in an extremely embarrassing situation of being unable to go up or down.

This is also true. The loss of more than 11 million in the first half of the year is the best proof.

Thinking of Tao Xian's plan to build a CBD around the Yintai Commercial Complex Center, and thinking of the economic size and prosperity of Yangcheng in the future, Zhang Xuan was tempted.

He said to Li Mei: Next step, you come here to take charge of the work and try to eat up Tianhe Mall.

Li Mei was the only person in the conference room who knew Zhang Xuan's thoughts. She nodded immediately: Okay, leave this to me.

After spending half an hour discussing the matters in Yangcheng, Zhang Xuan said to Peng Zhiyong, It's time to get back to work.

Peng Zhiyong reported: “The daily average number of visitors to Beijing Yintai Mall has stabilized at 462,000, with a peak of 880,000 near the end of the year.

Revenue for the three months totaled 1.01 billion yuan, gross profit was 195 million yuan, and net profit was 94 million yuan.

Zhang Xuan nodded after hearing this. This data was similar to that of the Shanghai stock market and exceeded his expectations.

Zhang Xuan said: Excluding projects under construction, the three malls achieved a profit of 568 million yuan this year. The company and I are quite satisfied. I hope you will continue your efforts and achieve steady growth next year.

Young Mr. Zhang's 10-minute speech was poured down with chicken soup and received a wave of smug looks and applause.

After 10 o'clock, the meeting ended. Except for Zhang Xuan, Li Mei and Wang Li, everyone present took sides.

However, Zhang Xuan asked Qiu Ya to stay alone.

Seeing this, the company's senior executives cast envious glances at Qiu Ya. But this was also what they expected. As Mr. Zhang's confidant and number one henchman in Yintai Real Estate, he would naturally be favored.

Indeed, as everyone suspected, Zhang Xuan deliberately kept Qiu Ya to send a signal to the outside world that Qiu Ya would gradually take over Li Mei's authority in Yintai Real Estate.

Although Li Mei is still the general manager, more of her work focus will be on mobile phones.

Qiu Ya glanced at the three of them, changed her previous seriousness, and said to Zhang Xuan: Boss, are you thirsty? What kind of tea do you want to drink? I'll make it for you.

Zhang Xuan smiled, pointed to the chair in front of him and said, Okay, sit down, don't leave me with nothing.

Qiu Ya sat down as she was told.

Zhang Xuan suddenly remembered something, patted his forehead and said to Wang Li: Teacher, help me call Yang Yongjian. I forgot to call her just now.

Wang Li stood up and joked: I'm still wondering why you forgot your confidant.

These words successfully made Li Mei and Qiu Ya laugh, and they also understood in their hearts that after Yang Yongjian officially graduates, the power structure of Yintai Real Estate will slowly change.

After a while, Yang Yongjian came in. He was very discerning and chose a seat to the side to sit down.

When everyone came, Zhang Xuan said: You guys are left here for two things.

The first is to check the 1996 finances.

The second is the acquisition of Tianhe Mall. You will form a core working group to be responsible for this matter.

There is nothing to say about finance, which is Wang Li's main battlefield. She makes a report, while others listen quietly and ask questions if they don't understand.

After last year's troubles, this year is relatively stable, and Zhang Xuan feels very comfortable.

After 12 o'clock, the small meeting ended, and several people went to a restaurant on the 7th floor to eat.

As soon as she sat down, she saw Wang Li taking out a stack of wedding invitations from her bag, Everyone has a share. Ms. Wang will get married on the twelfth day of the first lunar month next year. People don't have to come, but the red envelope must arrive.

Zhang Xuan took the invitation and asked with some surprise: Didn't they just go on a blind date and get married?

Wang Li said: Some people are still lovers after playing together for a lifetime, and some people are my husband as soon as we meet. This is fate for three lives.

My skin is sagging and my appearance is declining with age. I am getting worse every day. Naturally, I have to find an honest person to deal with her quickly.

This self-deprecating tone amused everyone, and Li Mei asked curiously: Do you have any photos?

I knew you would ask. Of course there are photos. Although they are not as flashy as those in the bar, they are very nice. Wang Li reached out and took out a group photo and handed it to everyone.

Zhang Xuan took a closer look and found that the person in the photo did have an average appearance and average personality, but his thick earlobes made him look very lucky.

After dinner, Zhang Xuan asked Yang Yongjian: When will you go back this year?

Yang Yongjian asked: What about you?

Zhang Xuan said: We are going to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, and the two actresses also plan to go to Europe to watch Wen Hui's piano performance.

Yang Yongjian asked: Aren't you going?

Zhang Xuan replied: I can't go, I have something to do.

Yang Yongjian understood immediately: Go on a date with Mi Jian, right?

Zhang Xuan reached out and patted her shoulder: Sometimes people shouldn't be too smart, or they will be struck by lightning.

Yang Yongjian glared at him: It's okay for you to be like this, how can God accept me?

Zhang Xuan said: I will introduce a girlfriend to Sun Jun later.

Yang Yongjian didn't take it seriously: You go and introduce him, I just think he is a bit short.

This was your husband in the previous life, so I don’t think you’d be so disgusted with it.

Going down to the first floor, Zhang Xuan called Chen Yan, Where are Shuangling and the others?

Chen Yan said: I just finished shopping and had barbecue.

Zhang Xuan said to Yang Yongjian: Let's go, they are having barbecue, let's go and have a look.

Yang Yongjian did not refuse because of her busy schedule this time. Time passed by. Half a year later, she really wanted to meet Du Shuangling.

On the way, Yang Yongjian asked: Where is Seagate's internship?

Zhang Xuan replied: On CCTV.

Yang Yongjian said: This unit is quite good. With your connections, you should be able to let her stay, right?

Zhang Xuan replied: It depends on whether she is willing or not? If she is happy staying there, she will naturally stay.

Yang Yongjian asked: How about the effect of traditional Chinese medicine? Can it help you deal with so many women?

Zhang Xuan said while driving: Yang Yongjian, you are really becoming more and more like a second-rate person.

Yang Yongjian argued: I'm just telling the truth. Shuang Ling and Mi Jian are fine, but Lilith is a coquettish woman at first glance. I'm afraid that you will be eaten by her until you're gone.

Zhang Xuan glanced at her: You can also see this?

Yang Yongjian said: Anyone with a normal mind can see it, don't say you don't understand?

Look at Lilith’s mother, she is still graceful and graceful even at such an old age. This is obvious, okay?

These words caught him off guard. Zhang Xuan stepped on the brakes and turned his head very depressed: Yang Yongjian, you have changed.

Yang Yongjian's expression remained unchanged: I have studied medicine after all, been in an autopsy room, and seen so many corpses.

Although I have never eaten pork, I have seen a lot of things about pigs. In my opinion, there is nothing taboo about men and women, so you'd better take it easy.

You writers are all romantic, and Gu Long’s life is a typical example, and you should learn from it.

While chatting, the barbecue stall arrived.

Yongjian, you're here. I wanted to look for you in the morning, but I gave up halfway when I learned that you had a meeting. Du Shuangling happily pulled Yang Yongjian to sit next to him.

Instead of working hard for your man, the salary is low and the work is tiring. Shuangling, you have to help me more and let him increase his salary. Yang Yongjian started his best complaint mode.

Since he had already eaten, Zhang Xuan only ate one grilled oyster.

It is said that if there are three women in one drama, four women can cause a stir, and the old man cannot get in the conversation at all, so he can only listen happily.

This year's annual meeting was hosted by Qiu Ya and Xu Shengli. When they asked Zhang Xuan for instructions, he just said lightly: Be willing to spend money.

This year is different from last year. Except for a brief resignation on stage at the beginning, he watched the whole process below.

It was the first time for Du Shuangling to attend the annual meeting, and everything was full of curiosity.

Of course, seeing Du Shuangling sitting intimately with Mr. Zhang, more than a thousand people in the whole company were more curious about her. They all wanted to know why this happy woman could firmly capture Mr. Zhang's heart?

My dear, they are all secretly looking at me. Du Shuangling had a keen sense and couldn't help but whisper in his ear.

Zhang Xuan reached out to hold her arm and asked, Are you afraid?

Du Shuangling said with a smile: As long as you are here, I won't be afraid.

Zhang Xuan patted the back of her hand and said with a smile: My dear, this is the style my wife should have.

Seeing the closeness between the two of them as if no one else was around, Zou Qingzhu has been secretly observing Wen Hui from the corner of his eyes, wondering what the relationship between this best friend and Zhang Xuan is?

However, Wen Hui didn't give Zou Qingzhu a chance to figure it out. She focused entirely on the performance on stage and occasionally chatted with Yang Yongjian without showing anything unusual.

Every time at this time, Zou Qingzhu has a little self-doubt: Am I delusional? Are Huihui and Zhang Xuan completely inseparable?

The annual meeting lasted very late and didn't end until 10 p.m.

The three middle girls also participated in the company's lottery.

Unexpectedly, Zou Qingzhu was so lucky that he directly smoked a BB machine and immediately laughed from ear to ear.

Zou Qingzhu was a little embarrassed and planned to return the BB camera to Yintai Real Estate, but Zhang Xuan stopped him.

Zhang Xuan said: This picture is auspicious, keep it, this thing just contacts your boyfriend.

After saying that, he gave Du Shuangling a look. Du Shuangling immediately understood and persuaded:

Take it, Qingzhu. This is your luck. It proves that you are very lucky now and your postgraduate entrance examination should go smoothly.

Seeing what the two of them said, Zou Qingzhu stopped being pretentious and accepted it generously. At the end, he said: I don't want it in vain. I send you my best wishes. I wish you both a long life and grow old together, hehe. .”

Wenhui was not too lucky and won a 500 cash red envelope.

Du Shuangling received a consolation prize, a pack of elastic bands.

Yang Yongjian immediately said: Shuang Ling, I think the elastic band is most suitable for you. It just ties your man to the waistband of your pants.

Zhang Xuan broke out in cold sweat when he heard what he meant. If eyes could kill, Yang Yongjian would have been cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.

Du Shuangling hummed and said with a smile: Yongjian, this is a good suggestion. If he dares to act randomly one day, I will tie him to my belt.

Zhang Xuan pretended to be dead, automatically filtered the conversation, and invited Yang Yongjian: We are going back to CUHK, let's go over and have fun together?

Yang Yongjian shook his head: It's so late, I don't want to bother. You have to go to Shanghai tomorrow and don't have time to play with me. Let's do it next time.

This makes sense. After everyone said hello, Zhang Xuan and the four of them got into the Mercedes-Benz and left.

…

The next morning.

After finishing the beef noodles, Zhang Xuan asked the three of them: Have you brought everything?

Du Shuangling checked his backpack and said, I've packed everything.

Zou Qingzhu and Wen Hui also responded, everything was fine.
