Sun Tao was helpless. Sometimes, he felt that being a general manager was really tiring.
Li Dong was more stable than him when he was steady, but he was more impulsive than anyone else when he was impulsive. There were many things that he did not discuss with him, the general manager.
Taking a deep breath, it was useless to talk about the past. Sun Tao said, "General Manager Li, what we have to do next is to stabilize the results. You don't have to donate anymore."
Li Dong nodded. It was not like he had too much money to spend. Naturally, he would not spend any more money.
With this five million, Fang Yuan would be able to live in peace for at least a year or so.
After a year and a half, the Far away at that time would not be the Far Away now, and there would be no need to spend money to buy peace.
As the two were talking, Liu Qi knocked on the door and came in. "General Manager Li, Shen Qian is back and wants to see you."
"Back?"
Li Dong looked surprised. It had only been a few days, and Shen Qian was back so soon.
The survey involved all the stores Far Away. Shen Qian finished reading all of them in a few days?
"Let her in."
After Liu Qi went out, Li Dong saw Sun Tao's puzzled look and explained, "Shen Qian is the new employee who joined after you left. She just came back from the store research."
Sun Tao asked, "Is it the one who applied for the vice president position last time?"
Li Dong remembered that he sent a resume to Sun Tao last time. He nodded and said, "That's the one, but she is too young. The vice president is not suitable …"
"General Manager Li!"
Before Li Dong finished speaking, Shen Qian had already pushed the door and entered.
However, Shen Qian's face was not very good. Obviously, she had heard what Li Dong just said.
Li Dong coughed and changed the topic, introducing Sun Tao, "This is Director Sun, the general manager of Far away."
Nodding her head towards Sun Tao, Shen Qian smiled. "Nice to meet you, CEO Sun. I'm Shen Qian, a senior researcher in the Marketing Department, and I'll soon be the Deputy General Manager of Far away."
Sun Tao laughed. Was he refuting what Li Dong had just said?
As for senior investigator, this was the first time Sun Tao had heard of this position. When he was around, there was no such thing as a senior investigator.
Glancing at Li Dong, Sun Tao didn't say anything when he saw that Li Dong didn't say anything. Smiling at Shen Qian, Sun Tao said to Li Dong, "General Manager Li, I'll take my leave first."
"Don't rush. I might have to look for you later."
Li Dong asked Sun Tao to stay and said to Shen Qian, "You finished the research so quickly? You're not fooling me, right?"
Shen Qian rolled her eyes and didn't answer Li Dong. She directly handed a thick document to Li Dong and said, "This is the result of my hard work. Please accept it, General Manager Li."
Li Dong took it and casually flipped through a page. The dense data and words gave him a headache.
Li Dong couldn't be bothered to read it anymore, so he said, "I'll read the report when I get back. Tell me first, how did you feel about the research?"
"It was terrible!"
Shen Qian observed Li Dong's expression. Seeing that he didn't change his expression, she couldn't help but pout.
Seeing this, Li Dong chuckled and said indifferently, "Tell me what was terrible?"
"The whole thing was terrible. It could be said that Far Away went the wrong way from the beginning!" Shen Qian's words were shocking.
However, Li Dong and Sun Tao's expressions didn't change. This little girl was still playing this game with them.
Although Far Away definitely had problems, it was definitely not as bad and exaggerated as Shen Qian made it out to be.
If it was really so bad, Far Away had been making profits and maintaining a rapid level of development.
Neither of them said anything and waited for Shen Qian to continue with her shocking words. They wanted to see what kind of wise opinion Shen Qian had.
If she only knew how to make a fuss, Li Dong wouldn't keep idle people.
Although the previous report was quite to his liking, one report wasn't enough to prove anything.
"In my opinion, I suggest that we give up all the markets in the small cities. Far Away should focus on Pingchuan, Nanhu, and Mingcheng, which are more economically developed cities."
Li Dong smiled and said, "Continue. Why do you want to give up the markets in the small cities and choose to go to the big cities to compete with other big markets?"
"Of course it's for the future! Now the market in the small cities seems to be empty. Far Away will have a lot of profits. You can't just look at the immediate benefits. When the big cities' markets are all occupied, Far Away can only be trapped in the small cities. If you only want to make money, it's not a problem. But if you want to make Far Away big, you can't give up the big cities. "
Li Dong naturally understood this point. There was nothing special about what Shen Qian said.
Li Dong was a little disappointed and said, "Of course we won't give up the big cities Far Away. In the next two years, Far Away will enter several big cities in Jiangbei."
"General Manager Li, are you kidding?" Shen Qian said incredulously, "In the next two years? Do you think there's still a chance for Far Away by then?"
"Will those big markets just watch you snatch food from the tiger's mouth?"
"By then, it'll be too late. The market will be saturated. Far Away will only be courting death if we enter at that time …"
Shen Qian said a lot of things. Anyway, she only meant one thing. It's not too late.
Even if they entered several big cities now, it was a little late. But it wasn't too late. Far Away still had a chance.
But if they really waited for those big markets to finish dividing the market, Far Away would have nowhere to go. In the end, Far Away would only get some leftovers.
If Li Dong was content with a small fortune, then Far Away was not in a hurry. He could slowly gain a foothold in the small cities. But if he wanted to make it big, it was necessary to fight hard.
There was some truth in this. Li Dong also thought about it. What Shen Qian said was just a cliché.
Nothing new. This was the definition Li Dong gave to Shen Qian's research.
He thought that Shen Qian would continue to surprise him like last time, but it turned out to be the same old thing.
Li Dong waited for her to finish and said perfunctorily, "I'll think about it. You can go back first."
Li Dong saw through Shen Qian's perfunctory attitude. She immediately said angrily, "General Manager Li, do you really have the heart to watch Far Away go to the end?"
"Hehe, you don't have to say more alarmist words. I'm not that timid."
Li Dong curled his lips and ignored her. He looked at Sun Tao and said, "Brother Sun, you go and do your thing first."
Sun Tao did not move. He pondered for a moment and said, "General Manager Li, I think what Miss Shen said is still reasonable."
"Listen, even General Manager Sun agreed. General Manager Li, you are too conservative!"
With Sun Tao's support, Shen Qian immediately cheered up.
Li Dong ignored her and looked at Sun Tao with some doubts.
It should be known that the rural area surrounding the city was a plan that they had formulated a long time ago. Why did Sun Tao suddenly change his mind now?
"General Manager Li, didn't I tell you before that there will be a big investment and construction? In fact, we can still invest in Pingchuan, especially now. Far Away will have a firm foothold in Jiangbei. "
Li Dong touched his chin and began to consider the pros and cons.
It was not impossible to invest in Pingchuan, but the rate of return was definitely not comparable to those small cities. Was it worth it?
Li Dong was a little conflicted. After thinking for a long time, he said, "I'll think about this and give you an answer later."
In fact, it was still a problem of money. If he had money, he would not have to think so much.
Whether it was a small city or a big city, it was not a problem to open a shop at the same time.
However, Baidu had not been listed yet, and the money was not in his hands. Li Dong could only restrain himself.
