After the joke, Li Dong regained his composure and said, "So far away did well last year. This cannot be achieved without everyone's hard work."
Everyone applauded.
Li Dong pressed his hand down and continued, "Let me talk about this year's goal for So far away."
"Last year, we opened six stores. This year, I'm thinking of turning six stores into thirty!"
As soon as he finished, everyone's expression turned serious.
Sun Tao asked, "General Manager Li, 24 stores a year, isn't that a little too fast?"
24 stores a year meant that there had to be two stores opening every month. So far away was still a little difficult.
Li Dong shook his head.
Jiangbei had 16 prefecture-level cities, 42 municipal districts, and 66 counties.
Not counting the towns, even if there was one store in each county, there would be at least a hundred stores.
To fulfill Li Dong's dream of opening So far away all over Jiangbei before he graduated, 24 stores a year was only the minimum requirement.
Sun Tao saw this and did not refute. Instead, he asked, "So General Manager Li means to use the 50 million on the books?"
Li Dong first nodded, then shook his head and said, "We can't use all of this money, or else there will be endless trouble."
Although he desperately wanted to expand, he was not at the point of losing his mind.
In the past, it was fine if he used a few million. In an emergency, Li Dong could still make up for it.
But once he used 50 million, if there was a problem in one of the links, So far away's capital chain could be broken. When that happened, the only outcome for So far away was bankruptcy.
In the end, So far away's foundation was too shallow, and its ability to resist risks was too weak.
If it were those large supermarkets, they would not need to consider this. They had thousands of stores, and if they pooled together 100,000 for each store, they could easily use hundreds of millions of funds.
Li Dong explained, "My idea is to use the stores to support the stores. Take out 20 million first and open 10 to 12 stores in the first half of the year. When the new stores start operating and have income, plus the support of the six stores, we will have enough money in the second half of the year. We can open the remaining stores then. "
Twenty million should be enough to open ten stores. The key was to take out twenty million. So far away, there was still enough money to be used as a reserve.
The rest of the money should not be a problem to deal with some unexpected situations, unless there was a major accident.
The others nodded. Far away, this was what they had done last year.
However, in the early part of last year, they could only rely on one store in Dongping for blood transfusion, so the opening of new stores was a little slow.
So far away, he still had plenty of funds. Coupled with the blood transfusion from the six stores, it wouldn't be too difficult to open 24 stores a year.
The others just had to take care of their own business, so they naturally wouldn't have any objections.
However, Sun Tao frowned and said, "If that's the case, then our manpower shortage will be too big. At the same time, a large number of new people will come in, which is not good for the company's development."
Li Dong didn't say anything. He just glanced at Qi Yunna and the others.
After working with him for so long, Sun Tao immediately understood Li Dong's meaning.
Naturally, Li Dong meant for Qi Yunna and the others to move. The few branches in Qingyang were gradually stabilizing, and these store managers were the best candidates to be sent out to expand.
As for the new people, they could be recruited to gain experience in a few old stores. After a few months, they could be released for use.
Sun Tao glanced at Xie Hong and the others. Seeing that they were still ignorant, he couldn't help but laugh in his heart.
These fellows still thought that this had nothing to do with them. Did they think that General Manager Li was the kind of person who would let people do nothing?
Far away, the management of the Dongping store had been ordered around by Li Dong, not to mention others.
Yang Yun went to Pingchuan to manage the logistics company, and Fang Hao was in charge of the Dongping store. He was on call, and he had almost never been idle last year.
Sun Tao didn't remind him. He changed the topic and said, "Where should we focus our development this year?"
There were 16 prefecture-level cities in Jiangbei. Except for Qingyang and Pingchuan, the other 14 prefecture-level cities naturally couldn't swarm in at the same time.
The best way was to encroach on them, just like what Qingyang was doing now.
Li Dong already had an answer in his heart. He immediately replied, "Mound City for the first half of the year, and Mount Tong for the second half."
"Mound City? Mount Tong? "
Everyone thought for a moment and immediately understood Li Dong's plan.
If they took out the map of Jiangbei, they would find that Pingchuan was in the center, while Qingyang was the most remote in the south.
Mound City and Mount Tong were on the left and right of Qingyang. Li Dong's plan was to take over the outer cities of Jiangbei first, and then gradually expand inward.
In the end, they would surround Pingchuan, which was also in line with the strategic goal of Far away.
…
After talking for a while about opening new stores, Li Dong looked at the time and realized that more than an hour had passed.
He clapped his hands to get everyone's attention. Li Dong smiled and said, "Let's not talk about opening new stores today. Let's talk about something else that everyone is interested in."
Hearing Li Dong's words, everyone immediately turned around and listened attentively.
To be honest, the store managers didn't have high hopes for the year-end bonus.
It wasn't because their sales weren't good, and it wasn't because Li Dong was stingy.
It was because they had been working for the shortest amount of time. Even Sun Tao and Fang Hao didn't work for a full year last year.
Xie Hong and the others had even less time. They had been working for less than three months.
If they were working for another company, they wouldn't even be considered an official employee for less than three months. Naturally, there wouldn't be any year-end bonus.
Li Dong didn't care about what everyone was thinking. He said, "Manager Wu, the bonus is 23,000 yuan. You can get it from Director Liu later. Manager Wu, last year … "
No one was in the mood to listen to the rest of Li Dong's words.
What they cared about was that Wu Liangnong actually got a bonus of more than 20,000 yuan!
As store managers, their monthly salary was only 3,000 to 4,000 yuan. This was almost half a year's salary!
Wu Liangnong's mouth was crooked from smiling. A bonus of 23,000 yuan was beyond his expectations. Originally, he thought that getting a thousand or two would be good enough.
He didn't expect General Manager Li to give him such a big surprise. It was really too unexpected.
"Manager Guo, the bonus is 25,000 yuan …"
Guo Mingzhi was also smiling happily. Naturally, he was happy to get more than Wu Liangnong.
"Manager Qi, the bonus is 30,000 yuan!"
When Qi Yunna heard that she actually got 30,000 yuan, she quickly stood up and said, "General Manager Li, isn't this too much?"
Li Dong looked at her and laughed. "This is the result of your own hard work!"
After saying that, he looked at the others and said, "The amount of the bonus is related to your performance. Manager Qi has the best performance among all of you, so naturally, he gets the most bonus. The three stores in Nanping, He Chuan, and Yanghe are similar in size. Manager Qi made 2.82 million yuan last year, so he gets 30,000 yuan as a bonus. Does anyone have any objections? "
Guo Mingzhi and Wu Liangnong quickly shook their heads.
Not to mention that they really had no objections, even if they did, they didn't dare to show it.
Moreover, what Li Dong said was a warning. Under the same circumstances, they lost to Qi Yunna in terms of performance.
Wu Liangnong, who was previously excited, was now a little scared. His performance was less than Qi Yunna's by more than 500,000 yuan. This was not a small number.
Fortunately, Li Dong didn't mention it again. He continued to read, "Manager Xie, the bonus is 30,000 yuan."
Xie Hong stood up and thanked him. He was not surprised by this number.
Although the Qingyang store's performance was the highest, it was already not bad to be on par with Qi Yunna's. After all, the Qingyang branch was bigger than the others.
"Manager Fang, 30,000 yuan …"
Fang Hao could get so much not because he was the manager, but because he worked longer hours than others. No one had any objections to this.
"General Manager Sun …"
Hearing Sun Tao's name, the others immediately recovered from their surprise.
They really wanted to know how much Sun Tao could get, but they heard Li Dong say with a smile, "General Manager Sun doesn't have a bonus. I would like General Manager Sun to give me a bonus."
Everyone looked at each other, but they saw that Sun Tao was still smiling. He didn't feel that there was anything wrong with not giving him a bonus.
In fact, Sun Tao really didn't care. Last year, his bonus was more than 2 million yuan!
He had already made so much money, so why would he care about the 30,000 or 50,000 yuan?
In addition, the company had given him a car last year. That was more than 200,000 yuan. General Manager Li didn't even have a car himself.
After talking about the bonus, everyone was happy.
At noon, everyone gathered for lunch. After lunch, Li Dong said to Sun Tao in a low voice, "Don't forget about Manager Yang. Follow Manager Qi's standards."
Sun Tao nodded. Even if Li Dong didn't mention it, he would have mentioned it.
After all, Yang Yun's performance last year was obvious to all. It wouldn't be appropriate without her.
