"Doing a business partnership means having the money to contribute, the strength to contribute, and the brains to contribute the brains. I was the one who came up with the idea of opening a high-end restaurant. Did I ask for a penny more from them?" Liu Botao didn't feel that he was Wrong,
"Besides, it's not like they don't pay dividends when the restaurant makes money. Now they don't want to contribute any more, and it would be the most shameless thing for them to want to share the money with them when the time comes."
Su Meng heard what her uncle said and felt it made sense.
Since we are partners in business, we must have money to contribute and strength to contribute. Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan are so fussy and fussy, they are really petty and do not look like people from the Zhengyang sect.
"Uncle, what should we do? Can our restaurant still be open?" she asked then.
"Open it, please open it." Liu Botao slapped the table and said.
"What about their conditions?" Su Meng asked again.
"I agreed first. I don't believe it. When they really make money, they will be willing to withdraw their capital." Liu Botao sneered.
The shopping mall is like a battlefield. Compassion does not govern soldiers, and justice does not manage finances. It's not like he doesn't know how to say one thing and do another.
Seeing this, Su Meng nodded.
…
Later, Liu Botao, Xiang Nan, and Guan Xiaoguan jointly signed the contract and decided to invest in opening a high-end restaurant.
Liu Botao got the name of the restaurant himself and named it Fulinmen.
Guan Xiaoguan was surprised when he heard this name. I didn’t expect Liu Botao, a rough guy, to have such cultural heritage.
However, Xiang Nan knew that Fulinmen Seafood Restaurant was a prestigious dining hall for wealthy people in Xiangjiang. Liu Botao clearly misappropriated his name and bullied him into not having a branch in the mainland.
The contract stipulates that Fulinmen Restaurant shall not use the reputations and connections of Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan to attract customers. If there is any violation, Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan will not only withdraw their shares, but also Fulinmen will pay for their losses.
After the contract was signed, Jin Manying invested two million to open the restaurant. After the restaurant opened, Su Meng also took care of it.
After signing the contract, the preparations for opening Fulinmen Restaurant began.
In order to prevent it from being related to him, Xiang Nan was not even willing to give it a name. As for the site selection, renting, decoration, publicity, registration and other related matters, he naturally no longer interfered with it.
The same goes for Guan Xiaoguan. He doesn't show up, doesn't care, doesn't ask, and leaves everything to Su Meng.
Su Meng was stubborn. Seeing that Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan were unwilling to come forward, she did it herself. And as a result, she really suffered a lot.
If nothing else, just registering and signing up is not easy. There are so many departments to run and so many chapters to cover. Su Meng spent almost half a year just running these procedures.
At the same time, Jin Manying, managed by Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan, opened six branches. This shows how big the gap is between those who have connections and those who don’t.
But no matter what, as the Spring Festival approaches, Fulinmen finally opens for business after half a year of preparations.
However, Xiang Nan did not say hello to all his relatives, friends, leaders and colleagues, and treated everything coldly.
Cheng Baoguo and Feng Aihong learned about the restaurant's opening from Su Meng's parents.
Both of them were very angry and called their son to question, "Jianjun, you opened this restaurant and the Su family has invited it, but you won't invite me and your mother. Do you think we old couple can't handle it?"
"Of course not." Xiang Nan denied, "Let me tell the truth, that's what happened..."
He then told Liu Botao's plan.
When Cheng Baoguo heard this, he understood, "Okay, if that's the case, then we won't go and won't give him a chance to gain fame."
…
However, although Xiang Nan deliberately handled the matter coldly, Liu Botao wanted to make a big splash and let everyone in Forty-Nine City know that Fulinmen was Xiang Nan's business.
For this reason, he asked Su Meng to scatter invitations everywhere and hit Xiang Nan. Guan Xiaoguan's banner is a treat. Many government departments, companies, and even the Literature Department of Peking University received her invitations.
Naturally, Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan had already heard about such a large-scale invitation.
"Brother Jianjun, Liu Botao is so shameless. The contract stipulated that he was not allowed to use our name to solicit customers, but he still sent invitations all over the place under the guise of discounting us. How disgusting!" Guan Xiaoguan said angrily.
"I knew he was shameless, so I took precautions in advance." Xiang Nan nodded.
Liu Botao even deceived and guarded the person next to him. Now that he could do such a shameless thing, he didn't feel surprised at all. However, he is not as easy to bully as Hou Su'e.
"Then what should we do now? Should we withdraw our capital and start a lawsuit with him?" Guan Xiaoguan asked.
"There's no rush. Withdrawing capital and filing lawsuits now is silent, so it won't be in vain that we benefit him." Xiang Nan waved his hand and said, "I want to wait for him to be at his most prosperous before giving him a fatal blow."
Upon hearing this, Guan Xiaoguan smiled and nodded. She just likes Xiang Nan's domineering attitude.
…
On January 25, 1986, Fulinmen Restaurant officially opened.
Because Liu Botao had invited guests everywhere in the name of Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan in advance, for their sake, people came to welcome them after receiving the invitation.
Therefore, as soon as it opened, it was packed with guests and friends, and the upstairs and downstairs were filled. Among them are many government officials, unit leaders, and company executives. In short, most of them are respectable people.
Liu Botao was a little shocked when he saw this.
I didn't expect that Xiang Nan and Guan Xiaoguan were so easy to use face. Once they showed off, so many noble people were willing to reward them. If we can win over everyone, there will be no shortage of customers in Fulinmen in the future. It will be too late to queue up.
"Okay, now it's okay." He chuckled.
"Uncle, we treated guests under the banner of Cheng Jianjun and Guan Xiaoguan, but we have violated the contract. Will everything be okay?" Su Meng asked worriedly.
"What can happen?" Liu Botao curled his lips, "We sent out invitations and made such a big fuss, but Cheng Jianjun and Guan Xiaoguan didn't stop us. It shows that they have already acquiesced.
In my opinion, they just want to make money, but they are afraid of losing face, so they refuse to show up and pretend not to know about it. When we get things done, they will share the dividends together.
These are the actions of villains! Mengmeng, you have to be more cautious in the future. "
Su Meng's character is to follow the wind or rain. Listening to what my uncle said, I think it makes some sense.
"Okay, don't accompany me. Go to the front to meet the guests. You are the manager of the restaurant, and now is the time for you to show your face." Liu Botao said again.
When Su Meng heard this, she nodded and went down to entertain the guests.
"Director Zhou, you are here~"
"Manager Wang, you are here~"
"Director Xu, long time no see~"
She greeted them all with a smile. After all, she was a college student and had worked in an agency for three years. She was still very good at dealing with people.
"Miss Su, you should have told me earlier that this restaurant is Professor Cheng's property, and I have already covered your chapter. Look, now, the flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple, and the whole family no longer recognizes each other. It's really unacceptable. Sorry." A section chief from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau said with a smile.
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Once we are familiar with each other, we will become familiar with each other twice. I ask you to come more often in the future." Su Meng said with a smile.
Seeing that the section chief was so respectful to her and even took the initiative to apologize, she couldn't help but secretly lament Xiang Nan's influence.
