Chapter 96 Food Court

Seeing Zhou Wenbin answering meticulously, Zhang Ke asked him with a smile: "Driver Zhou knows I can decide on the paper mill?"

"Can you see it," said Zhou Wenbin, "Director Zhou and others are with you these days, and they are all with your body sideways, so how can they not see it?"

Zhang Ke looked at Zhou Wenbin and said, "Due to my family, some things are not suitable for too many people to know..."

"I know this, I won't talk nonsense."

"Then I'll call you Brother Zhou in the future," Zhang Ke smiled and said, "Is Audi driving smoothly?"

Zhou Wenbin raised his eyebrows, his eyes showed joy, and he nodded and said, "Of course it's much easier than a van."

"It's a pity to give up the status of a state-owned factory worker?" Zhang Ke looked at Zhou Wenbin.

"I don't have reliable jobs. Only by having craftsmanship can you avoid having enough food and clothing." Zhou Wenbin said as slow as possible.

"Okay, I'll tell Director Zhou and ask him to find another driver for the van, I'll have someone who can trust here."

At this time, my uncle Zhang Zhifei, Zhou Fu, Jiang Wei and Wu Tianbao pushed the door open and came in.

Zhang Zhifei and Wu Tianbao walked around the front desk and saw the layout of the office area. They couldn't help but stare at the boss, and their mouths were opened and they almost leaked out of water.

Zhang Zhifei stood at the office door and looked in: "Who did you ask for design here? Introduce it to me. When I stood here, I felt that my place was like a countryside. All of them said that they were professional designers and did not see where their professional level was reflected."

Zhang Ke felt it was necessary to inform his uncle so that he would not be caught off guard if his parents bumped into Xu Si. However, at this time, he put down the phone and asked them to walk into the reception room next door with a smile, and asked Zhou Fu: "How are you talking?"

"The rental period is ten years, and the rent is adjusted accordingly compared to the nearby restaurants, and it increases every year. Not only the interior of the factory, but also the venue in front of the factory and the street-facing walls, the renovation costs are invested by Manager Wu..." Zhou Fu replied.

"Oh," Zhang Ke said without comment, "What plans does Manager Wu have? For example, what kind of cuisine is running? The restaurant's layout Feng Ke, do you have any specific concepts?"

Wu Tianbao smiled hesitantly and said, "I haven't considered so much yet. I rented the place first. You can discuss other issues with someone." Even if there are detailed considerations, it will not be leaked in advance.

Zhang Ke said to Jiang Wei: "I remember you have the general floor plan of Zhang's old factory at hand, so take it over and take a look." He turned his head and asked Zhou Fu, "The factories and offices facing the street are all hot goods, so it is easy to rent them out. Have you considered what purpose the factories and warehouses behind them?"

"The factory buildings and warehouses behind can also be rented out. There are very few private factories that cannot find a place. We can consider publishing advertisements in Haizhou Daily." Zhou Fu replied.

Zhou Fu's answer was not creative, how much can it be rented? Zhang Ke curled his lips and smiled without comment. He spread the old factory floor plan that Jiang Wei brought to him on the glass coffee table: "I don't need to say more about the geographical location of the old factory. It is the most ideal location for catering in Haizhou. It is a pity to convert it into a restaurant just by converting it to a restaurant on the street. A restaurant is also isolated and cannot become a climate." Zhang Ke's fingers drew a circle throughout the blueprint, and it was simply powerful. "Then plan the entire factory into a catering and leisure square, which can accommodate at least fifteen to twenty restaurants of different styles. The restaurants run here are not only limited to regular customers and passers-by, but also become the first choice for Haizhou people to eat. This involves the unified rectification of the brand operation of the entire catering and leisure square and the external environment..."

"Director Zhou is not familiar with the catering industry," Zhang Ke looked up at Wu Tianbao and said, "Manager Wu should understand?"

"This coincides with the idea of ​​a friend of mine," said Wu Tianbao, "He is also a catering person, and you know him.

Zhang Zhifei said: "It is Shao Zhigang, the boss of the Garden Hotel. He said that medium-sized restaurants are better to concentrate in addition to locations and propose the concept of building a catering square or a food street. We laymen just listen to his bragging. You can talk to Manager Wu to him."

Shao Zhigang is very famous for catering in Haizhou. In 1996 and 1997, nine hotels on this street were named gardens. This should be to implement his concept of centralizing catering and making a food street. Unfortunately, he joined the feast of dividing state-owned assets in 1998 and acquired nine state-owned enterprises, including the Municipal Traditional Chinese Medicine Factory and Agricultural Machinery Factory. Although these enterprises have suffered long-term losses, the land located in the urban area is of amazing value. As long as the factory site is moved out of the urban area, the old site can be used for commercial real estate development. With less than 20 million yuan of capital under his name, he almost leveraged hundreds of millions of state-owned assets. If he could successfully develop commercial real estate, he would most likely become the first super rich man in Haizhou. However, in 1999, his backer Ding Xiangshan fell down. People who have usually accumulated grievances rose up and quickly declared bankrupt due to disconnection of capital chains, and eventually became a prisoner for ten years due to economic crimes.

Zhang Ke estimated that Shao Zhigang should have reached the relationship between Ding Xiangshan after his garden hotel was established in 1996 and 1997. Not to mention Ding Xiangshan's relationship, Shao Zhigang is one of the businessmen Zhang Ke admires the most. He has sharp capital operation methods, but he has placed all the funds on Ding Xiangshan's personal power. He is just a little short of it and his efforts are in vain.

History has reversed this summer. At this time, Shao Zhigang was not qualified to establish a relationship with the city-level leaders. His Garden Hotel had just opened its first branch on Changsheng Street. Unexpectedly, he had the concept of making a food street in 1994.

Seeing that Zhou Fu wanted to speak but stopped, Zhang Ke looked hesitant and asked, "I want to transform the old factory into a catering and leisure square, and I have used a lot of funds. Are you worried about this?"

Zhou Fu did not expect Zhang Ke to tell the paper mill's current dilemma in front of outsiders, and said: "The funds raised are only enough to start production of the new factory, and it is impossible to take into account this area."

Zhou Fu has the experience and ability to manage the factory, but is not familiar with project operations. Attractive projects can not only attract people's attention, but also attract funds. Located in the east of Sifengqiao, the old factory with a superior geographical location is the most core resource in this project. It is enough to hold this in your hand.

Zhang Ke smiled and said, "If the plan can make people excited, I don't think Manager Wu will pay the rent for the next two or three years in advance..." Speaking of this, he looked at Wu Tianbao, "What do you think, Manager Wu?"

"This..." Wu Tianbao said with a smile, "You should meet with the garden boss Shao Zhigang first. He really has ideas in this regard, and he is very appealing among our group of people who do catering."

Seeing that his uncle Zhang Zhifei was also looking forward to it, Zhang Ke slowly shook his head and said, "I have matured my considerations about the catering and leisure square. Shao Zhigang felt it was necessary to join. He could directly find Director Zhou. I have a child’s family. What’s the difference between seeing him or not?"

Zhang Ke carefully studied Shao Zhigang's deeds. He made a fortune in catering, but he was a master of capital operation. In just four years, Garden at its heyday had nineteen catering companies, which was a reflection of Shao Zhigang's capital operation methods. Later, he climbed to Ding Xiangshan's relationship and dared to use 20 million capital to leverage hundreds of millions of state-owned assets. This shows the seriousness of the collusion between officials and businessmen to transfer state-owned assets, and also shows Shao Zhigang's ambition and courage in the 1998s.

If such a person is recruited, Zhang Ke is willing to pay ten times the salary of Zhou Fu, but this is unrealistic. Shao Zhigang already has two restaurants, not to mention that he is already ambitious at this time, but it is not the time for his turn to shine.

Seeing Zhang Ke say this, Wu Tianbao smiled awkwardly, shrugged, and said nothing.

Zhang Ke continued: "Manager Wu, you have many friends in catering. Please help us speak. Anyone who is interested will welcome you..."

Zhang Ke also revealed some details of the plan to Wu Tianbao, which facilitated his publicity among his colleagues in the catering industry, and then sent him with his uncle to the square in front of Xinhaitong Building.

Zhang Ke and his uncle Zhang Zhifei returned to the building. In the slowly rising elevator, the walls rustled, but they felt very quiet.

Seeing that my uncle's eyes were confused, Zhang Ke asked him: "I refuse to see Shao Zhigang. Do you think I'm childish?"

"Why do you have any other considerations if you say that?"

"I just quit Haitai Trading, but I can be 70% of the master of Jinhu Company..." Zhang Ke decided to reveal the truth to his uncle first, so as not to lay the groundwork for the future when he crashed.

"Ah..." Zhang Zhifei could certainly understand what Zhang Ke said, and then he was even more surprised. He asked, and the elevator stopped at this time and a white-collar woman holding a folder came in. Zhang Zhifei had to temporarily suppress her surprise.

After entering the office, he sat down on the lacquered leather sofa, and Zhang Zhifei had the opportunity to speak: "How could this company be yours?"

"Which article of the Company Law stipulates that minors cannot hold shares?" Zhang Ke bent down to make coffee for the two of them, turned his head and said, "I hold 70% of this company, and Sister Wan Qing's Haiyu Company holds 30% of the shares..."

"So, are you who are the ones who contracted the Xinguang Paper Mill?"
