The next morning.
Su Zelin sat in front of the computer, browsing the Zhejiang University BBS with great interest.
Because of his whole-day campus date with Qin Shiqing, the place was in an uproar.
There are a lot of criticisms on the forum, most of which are insults. These are undoubtedly boys, and some of them are just sour grapes.
Before the opening of the Zhejiang University store, Su Zelin opened many small accounts on the Zhejiang University BBS and logged into one of them.
“Pah pah pah…”
Type a few sentences and use the Ctrl+Enter shortcut combination to send them out.
You don't understand how coquettish I am: "Yeah, Qin Shiqing is blind, what's so good about this guy? He just has some filthy money, can drive a Passat with one hand, is generous, looks as handsome as Huang Zongze, is over 1.8 meters tall, speaks humorously, and is a bit nimble with his fingers when spinning a pen. What else is there to be said for him?"
Just like the NBA star Bookbag Du in later generations, Hunzi occasionally likes to open a smurf account to argue with netizens, but Bookbag Du is too straightforward, and he openly quarrels with netizens, which is unworthy of his superstar status.
Su Zelin is very skillful. He understands tactics, such as going behind enemy lines to play Infernal Affairs.
As soon as he posted this reply, the male netizens from Zhejiang University stared for a long time, and the Italian cannon was unable to fire.
Who is this guy? He is wearing the uniform of a friendly army. Why does it look like he is praising that guy in disguise
The advantage of his flexible fingers came into play now. In a short while, the fast typist had posted a comment under almost every post criticizing him.
The male netizen didn't mention the Italian cannon, but the female netizen did start to criticize it.
"What do you know? Who wouldn't like this handsome guy who is young, rich, willing to spend money on girls and knows how to be romantic?"
"A boy like this is simply the best. If I were Qin Shiqing, I would accept him too!"
"Haha, you're really jealous. Is it hard to admit that someone is excellent?"
"You can tell at a glance that he is a poor fellow who can't find a girlfriend. He feels unbalanced when he sees another handsome guy chasing Qin Shiqing. He deserves that no girl will be attracted to him with this mentality!"
"… "
The gangster logged into another small account, pretending to cover for his friends, and had a fight with the female netizen.
The tempo quickly picked up and eventually turned into a melee between men and women.
The man steps on the scoundrel, while the woman flatters him in various ways.
Although he is a top student at Zhejiang University, he is just a college student after all. Compared with old hands like Su Zelin, he is still too green and can be easily led by the nose.
This way, it won't just be me who's criticizing me. I'm a female friend, and I also have a huge support group, hehe~
While the Zhejiang University BBS was in chaos, the troublemaker who was leading the discussion slipped away, hiding his merit and fame.
He has something else to do today, so he doesn't have time to hang out on the forum.
First, I came to the digital store and took a look around. Now the manager position has not been given to Xiao Liu, and he is still nominally the person in charge of the Finance College store, so he still has to show up occasionally to make his presence felt.
But Su Zelin didn't stay long and left soon.
I drove a Santana to a newly built commercial building in the city center, which just started renting out last month.
The headquarters of New Century is located here.
The location here is good, the flow of people is good, and there is a bus stop nearby that goes directly to the university town, making it a very suitable headquarters.
The rent was a bit expensive, but Su Zelin didn't care and directly took over a 500-square-meter shop in the digital district.
The company borrowed five million and has sufficient funds.
If you want to play, you have to play big. There's no point in playing around with small things.
This is the headquarters of New Century. It will directly represent the company's appearance and image, and its scale cannot be smaller than that of an ordinary store.
Moreover, New Century signed a ten-year contract.
At that time, the real estate market had not yet been hyped up, and many people did not have the vision to sign short-term contracts. Since rents would increase every two or three years, it was relatively easy to sign long-term contracts.
Xinshiji negotiated with the developer twice, claiming that the investment in renovation was large and needed to be guaranteed. It was not difficult to secure the long-term contract.
In addition to its geographical location, there is another reason for choosing this shopping mall.
It won’t be long before the Lin’an Municipal Government plans to build a large cultural park nearby. At that time, the popularity of the entire area will be boosted and the shop rents will increase sharply.
Even if you don't open your own store at that time, you can still make a lot of money by transferring this contract!
It is not easy for developers to break the contract because the penalty for breach of contract is quite high, and they are large developers and attach great importance to their reputation. If the news of breach of contract gets out, they will easily lose the trust of other businesses. The contract has been signed, and if they can break it without any reason, who will dare to move into your shop in the future
This is the vision advantage of a reborn person, so Su Zelin dares to borrow money from the bank at will, and borrow as much as he can.
Others may not be able to borrow a chicken to lay eggs, but for a scoundrel, the money borrowed must be a hen that lays golden eggs!
Although the headquarters is not located on a university campus, this is not a problem.
New Century's main target is young people, not just college students. It's just that Su Zelin is expanding by opening up the university market. He has discussed his plan with Brother Yang before - to surround the urban area with universities.
Once a university has established a reputation, it can expand its business beyond the campus.
As long as you are famous and have a good reputation, any consumer may choose you, not just college students.
Besides, there are so many universities in Lin'an, and New Century does not have stores in all of them. This head office fills this market gap to some extent.
All in all, Su Zelin is full of confidence in the head office. He believes that the business should be better than any other store, and will be much better.
Park the car and walk into the shop where the store is located.
The decoration of the building had begun as early as a month ago when it was delivered for use. Since it was the head office, Su Zelin attached great importance to it and spent a lot of effort on it. He made many trips to the decoration company, personally participated in the design, and kept a close eye on the quality of the project, and would never allow any corners to be cut or sloppy work to occur.
The decoration is almost completed and the effect is beginning to show.
Standing inside the store and taking a glance, the 500-square-meter shop is very grand, coupled with the avant-garde design and high-quality decoration, it is full of luxury.
People who visit this mall, even those who have no immediate plans to buy digital products, will probably be tempted to come in and take a look.
Brother Xiao Yang and Kang Baohong were supervising the work of the decorators. Kang Baohong was also knocking on the tiles everywhere to listen to see if there were any sounds of gaps. They also had great expectations for this store.
It is not only the headquarters and image facade of New Century, but also a landmark step in the expansion of business scope from campus to urban area. It must be taken seriously and not be taken lightly!
"Boss Su!"
"boss!"
The two men greeted Su Zelin at the same time when they saw him. Kang Baohong also gave him two cigarettes. The three senior executives were all heavy smokers and liked to smoke while talking about serious matters, which was more refreshing.
"How is the progress of the project? Can it ensure that Liuliu can open smoothly?"
Su Zelin blew out a smoke ring and asked casually.
The preparation and decoration of the main store took the longest time, almost three months from the time we started looking for a store location, and the final opening date was June 6th.
As for everything like good luck, auspiciousness and good fortune, businessmen have to be more or less particular about it.
"Don't worry, boss. I'll come over every day to check on the progress. I promise there will be no problems!"
Kang Baohong patted his chest and made a promise.
"The TV commercial has also been confirmed. It will start in July and last until September, a full two months!"
Kang Baohong took the initiative to report other matters.
A very important thing this year is to buy advertisements, starting with the provincial TV stations.
The time period is the summer vacation because the ratings are high at this time.
There are some tips on how to buy advertisements, and you can even take a gamble.
There was a youth campus idol drama that happened to be aired on Zhejiang Satellite TV during the summer of this year, which catered to the positioning of young people in the new century.
Since the producer is a small media company, the director is not a big name, and almost all the actors are unknown newcomers.
So many people thought that the ratings would flop and the competition for title sponsorship advertisers was not fierce.
But in fact, this youth idol drama was a dark horse in ratings that year.
Of course, only Su Zelin knows about this matter, so the cost-effectiveness of betting on this film is very high. With the least money, you can get the best advertising effect.
In addition to the headquarters and TV advertising, a training team has also been established, and four new directly-operated stores have been added in the Medical University, the Academy of Fine Arts, the Industrial and Commercial University, and the Metrology University. Together with the franchise store at the University of Science and Technology, the number of New Century stores has exceeded double digits.
Xiao Yangge and Kang Baohong are both very busy. They have both lost weight in the past few months because they have to run around day and night and have endless work to do.
Fortunately, they are all young people with plenty of energy. If it were an old guy, he would not be able to bear it.
This is why Su Zelin brought Yang Fen in as a partner.
Without Brother Xiao Yang and his team, it would be impossible for New Century to expand rapidly. I also have to attend classes, so where would I get so much time and energy
Fortunately, the management team is constantly expanding and has recruited many talents from large companies to help. Otherwise, the two of them would be too busy to handle the work.
This is also the reason why Su Zelin is so busy this semester. He can't just put all the responsibilities on Brother Yang. After all, he is the founder and the big boss, and he has to do as much as possible, especially in this extraordinary period.
I stayed outside for the whole day.
On the way back to the Finance Institute, my cell phone rang. It was Nanazi calling.
"Manager Su, who is so busy, when will he have time to teach me how to drive? Will he have to wait until next semester?"
As soon as the call was connected, Nanako joked like this on the phone.
"Nana, why are you so impatient? Are you waiting to get on the highway?"
Su Zelin chuckled.
"Yes, I just like speed and sex. Monitor, are you fast enough?"
There was a hint of provocation in Ding Lina's tone.
"Is ten minutes enough?"
The bastard asked.
"Ten minutes?"
This is too short. It’s not enough for me to warm up the car.
Nanako thought to herself.
"I'll be at the entrance to the girls' dormitory in ten minutes. Remember to change into your cheerleading skirt and come down!"
Although he had not rested for a whole day outside, Su Zelin did not feel tired. Since Ding Lina brought up this matter, he might as well do it today.
"Wow, really, you're going to teach me how to drive tonight?"
"Why would I lie to you? I'm already on my way to the girls' dormitory."
"You're too sudden. I haven't even taken a shower yet!"
"It doesn't matter whether you wash or not. You'll be all sweaty when you come back anyway, so you'll have to wash again. How about this? I can wait a while and give you an extra ten minutes to shower and dress, for a total of twenty minutes, but it can't be too long."
"OK, that's fine, that's it, squad leader, see you later!"
"… "
After making the call on the balcony and hanging up the phone, Ding Lina walked back to the dormitory excitedly.
At this time, Luo Xi was about to walk into the bathroom with her clothes and bla, and Nanazi quickly pulled her good sister back: "Axi, wait a minute!"
"Nanako, what's wrong?"
The class beauty stopped.
"Can I wash first?" Nanako clasped her hands together: "Please, thank you!"
"Of course you can, but why are you in such a hurry to take a shower?"
Luo Xi suddenly thought of something: "Haha, is she going to have a date with some handsome guy later?"
"Well, I guess so!"
Ding Lina nodded.
"Oh, it really is true. Who is it? Can you tell me a little bit?"
The class beauty nudged her best friend's waist with her elbow, her gossipy heart burning: "Is he as handsome as our eldest brother?"
I can't say he's that handsome, I can only say he's exactly the same.
Nanako said secretly.
"Well, that's about right."
She nodded vaguely.
"Wow, there is a boy in our school who can rival the boss in looks." Luo Xi was excited all of a sudden: "Nana, you must introduce him to me when you have time, and let my sisters check him out for you!"
"Maybe you know him."
Ding Lina coughed dryly: "I won't talk to you any more. I have to wash up quickly, he will be here soon!"
Nanako took her clothes and went into the bathroom.
Luo Xi was a little confused, and muttered to herself: "I know that boy? How is that possible? Not to mention he's as handsome as the boss, even if he's 80% as good-looking as him, I won't forget him even if I burn him to ashes."
Nanako took a shower in the bathroom for about ten minutes.
Girls generally take longer to shower than boys. What's more, Ding Lina rubbed her six skins three times and almost shed a layer of skin, so it took a little longer than usual.
After walking out of the bathroom, she hurriedly put on some delicate makeup, put on a pair of big round earrings, and applied lipstick, making a flaming red lipstick look. Then she smiled with satisfaction at the dressing mirror.
Ding Lina, you are so charming that even a bitch like the squad leader will fall at your feet.
come on!
At this time, all the girls in the dormitory had learned from Luo Xi, the gossipy girl, that she had a date tonight.
"Come on, come on, little bitch, you're already hot enough, if you keep dressing up you'll be on fire!"
"Tsk tsk, you look so determined to win. It seems like that mysterious handsome guy will definitely not escape from your grasp tonight!"
"Nana, take it easy, don't squeeze me dry!"
The little girls all teased him.
Ding Lina quickly explained: "It's just an ordinary date, it's not like what you imagined!"
Luo Xi rolled his eyes. It’s so obvious, and you’re still pretending.
"Don't talk so much nonsense. I just want to ask you one question. Do you want to leave the door open tonight?"
"Well...it depends on the situation!"
"… "
