Chapter 389 Business Trip to Jinling
"Chairman Lin, this way please."
Jinling Shennan Flagship Store.
After discussing the evening's itinerary, Wang Shuo continued to show Lin Shen the interior of the store.
"The entire floor is an entertainment area where our guests can interact and play with the cats. The cat breeds are mainly Ragdolls, British Shorthairs, and Golden Shaded cats, which are the most popular and mainstream breeds on the market."
"They were all bred by our Shennan Pet Breeding Center. I talked to Mr. Yang about this for a long time before he agreed to provide us with about forty cats."
Wang Shuo scratched his head somewhat embarrassedly.
"However, his request was for our marketing department to help him expand into the high-end cat market, where they have bred many very beautiful and adorable cats using show-quality cats."
"These cats are too expensive to keep in catteries, so it's thinking of selling them to upper-class customers."
"I'll handle this."
Lin Shen was a smart man, and he understood what Wang Shuo meant as soon as he heard what he said.
He was just an ordinary white-collar worker, not someone from the upper class!
Therefore, this matter still needs to be handled by Chairman Lin Shen.
He was responsible for contacting high-end clients and promoting his own products; only in this way could Yang Han's request be fulfilled.
However, Lin Shen did not think that this behavior was beneath him; on the contrary, he believed that promoting his own products was a sign of confidence in his business.
"I'll have a proper talk with him when I go to Shanghai for a meeting in a while."
Lin Shen arrived at the cat shelter, squatted down to interact with the cats, and found that they were very lively and affectionate.
This is exactly the effect he needed.
"Good."
Lin Shen smiled and teased the cat for a while before standing up and gesturing to Wang Shuo.
He was very knowledgeable and continued his introduction.
"The first-floor reception and rest area is about 200 square meters, mainly consisting of an 80-square-meter human-pet interaction area and an 80-square-meter dining area. The remaining space is used for the front desk reception and display cabinets for our Shennan peripheral products."
"As for the pastries we use in Shennan, they are all products from Mr. Shen's processing plant."
"Yes."
Shen Yun took over the conversation with a smile.
"Chairman Lin, I have cancelled some projects in cooperation with other food companies to fully support the work of Shennan."
"To this end, I set up a special project team and developed several food items that are more in line with the needs of pet companies."
After saying that, Shen Yun handed a menu to Lin Shen.
It is filled with all kinds of food and beverages, including but not limited to: dessert series mainly consisting of mousse cakes and ice cream, main course series mainly consisting of pasta and rice bowls, and beverage series mainly consisting of sparkling water and milk fruit tea.
There are many varieties, but the prices are not expensive, even cheaper than other cat cafes that Lin Shen inspected.
But the quality looked very good, which surprised him, and he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.
"At such a low price, is it even possible to make a profit?"
"Chairman Lin, you are unaware of this."
Shen Yun smiled charmingly and then explained.
“In the past, most of the food for cat cafes was supplied by food companies, and their source of supply was food processing plants like mine.”
“Our Shennan skips one of the intermediate steps and supplies directly from the source, so the cost is naturally lower.”
"really."
Lin Shen nodded in agreement, then immediately expressed his concern.
"However, we currently have no more than twenty offline stores in Shennan. With such a small demand, can we support the demands of your food processing plant?"
"Chairman Lin, have you forgotten that many of our production lines have been converted into pet food production lines?"
Shen Yun smiled and subconsciously took Lin Shen's arm, explaining softly.
“Our main business has moved over there. The pastry making here is just a side business for us. I also handed it over to one of my former partners, which is like a processing plant under my management.”
"Although these small factories have small output volumes, their quality is high, which perfectly meets the requirements of Shennan."
"Furthermore, it can be separated from the pet food production line, thus preventing malicious individuals from making a fuss about the hygiene of our snacks."
"I see."
Lin Shen nodded slightly, thinking that Shen Yun's approach was quite clever.
This is equivalent to using two companies to produce two different types of products, but she is still the actual controller, which ensures the quality.
"Why don't you try some of our main products, Mr. Lin?"
"it is good."
After Lin Shen nodded, Shen Yun and Lin Shen sat down together in the reception area, while Xu Wenjie immediately found the waiter in charge of preparing the food and started cooking.
"Our main product here is the Shennan Mousse Cake. Its flavor has been specially formulated by our R&D department and it tastes very good."
A short while later, the cake that Shen Yun was talking about was brought over by the waiter.
It is small in quantity, but the preparation is extremely exquisite.
The mango puree is smooth, with full contours and even color.
Just looking at Lin Shen makes me feel that the ten-odd yuan was well spent, and it can be described using a popular online saying recently.
That's "pretty food".
Boys might not like it much, but it's definitely a girl's favorite.
"It's quite pretty!"
Lin Shen couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
Shen Yun then took the initiative to scoop a piece of mousse cake with a spoon, held it in her hand, and brought it to Lin Shen's lips.
"Please try it."
Shen Yun herself probably didn't think that feeding Lin Shen was a big deal, after all, the two had already become quite intimate.
But some of those present didn't know what was going on!
Seeing his aunt feeding Lin Shen cake, Xu Wenjie became even more certain of his guess.
My aunt's relationship with Lin Shen is probably not simple!
This is no longer just a superior-subordinate or peer relationship; it's more like a romantic relationship!
"good."
Lin Shen took a bite, and the cake melted in his mouth. It was sweet but not cloying, and the aroma of mango was perfectly brought out.
This made him exclaim in admiration.
"It's delicious."
"Thank you."
Shen Yun, who was being praised, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, while Lin Shen said with a smile.
“Developing this kind of product must require a lot of funds, right? I’ll give you some more money later so you can make more of these great products.”
"After all, if a cattery only makes money from pets, it will be too slow. It needs to expand into various markets."
"it is good!"
Shen Yun smiled charmingly and agreed. Then, accompanied by Wang Shuo and Xu Wenjie, she and Lin Shen went up to the second floor.
"This is our product display area."
Wang Shuo gave Xu Wenjie a look, signaling him to also show off in front of Lin Shen.
After understanding the implication, he immediately took over the task introduced by Wang Shuo and took the initiative to introduce the second floor.
"The products displayed on the cabinet are all the latest products developed by Shennan. Although there are few of them, they are exquisite."
"Um……"
Compared to the cozy and soothing decor of the first floor, the second floor, nestled deep in the woods, feels more like a large supermarket.
The shelves are stocked with a wide variety of pet food, pet snacks, and pet supplies, all of which are necessities.
"If Shennan develops more products in the future, they will be displayed here."
Xu Wenjie smiled.
"Of course, apart from the product display area, the rest of this area is the same as the first floor, which is also a human-pet interaction area. However, here, customers can bring their own pets to experience our products, which can be considered a marketing strategy."
"Not bad." Lin Shen nodded and continued to follow Xu Wenjie to the third floor.
"The third floor is our pet grooming center, which is equipped with internationally renowned Ishana products, including grooming supplies."
"Ah."
Lin Shen nodded slightly, strolled around the third floor, and then went to the fourth floor.
"This is our high-end service center."
Xu Wenjie emphasized this point.
"The customers who come here are mainly our core customers of Shennan, so the service quality and equipment are the highest level on the market."
"Ah."
Lin Shen also noticed that the decoration on the fourth floor was obviously different from that of the floors below.
Simple yet elegant, it exudes a low-key luxury and nobility.
The gold-trimmed door frames and Nordic-style decor made Lin Shen mistakenly believe he was still in the Bulgari presidential suite.
They really put a lot of effort into the renovation.
"Um……"
After inspecting the entire flagship store, Lin Shen felt that it was comprehensive.
It's not perfect, but at least it provides all the services customers need in the pet industry.
This is something a flagship store should do.
"pretty good."
After the morning inspection, Lin Shen called the group to the staff office on the third floor for a meeting.
He first praised the flagship store's location and decoration, and then pointed out some problems.
Although these are all minor issues, in the service industry, details determine success or failure.
Therefore, Xu Wenjie dared not be negligent and wrote these things down immediately.
He immediately set about signing the labor contract, striving to finalize the staffing for the flagship store within three days.
"Twenty waiters on the first floor, five on the second floor, ten on the third floor, and five on the fourth floor, for a total of forty. Does that sound alright?"
"can."
Sitting on the sofa, Lin Shen nodded and made the suggestion.
"The first floor is our flagship floor, and the fourth floor is mainly for high-end customers. The service staff should be well-behaved and we should try to recruit younger staff."
"The conditions for selling products on the second floor and personal care products on the third floor can be relaxed."
"Yes, Chairman Lin."
Xu Wenjie quickly agreed, his admiration for Lin Shen growing stronger.
As the chairman of Shennan, it is truly remarkable that he has such a deep understanding of the structure of the most basic business.
This suggests that Lin Shen had conducted on-site investigations, or even started his business from cat cafes.
That's amazing!
Xu Wenjie thought to himself with admiration, while Lin Shen raised a crucial question.
"When President Qin asked me for one million yuan as opening funds for our flagship store, I felt that might not be enough, right?"
"Yes, Chairman Lin, I paid part of it in advance."
Shen Yun smiled.
"But it's not much money."
"That won't do."
Lin Shen's tone became unusually serious. After sitting up straight, he tapped rhythmically on the armrest of the sofa with his right hand.
"You are absolutely not allowed to advance funds on your own. This will cause loopholes in the company's financial management. What if this time it's too little, and next time it's too much? Wouldn't that create chaos?"
"Feel sorry."
Seeing that Lin Shen was unusually angry, Shen Yun quickly lowered her posture and apologized with her eyes lowered.
As the owner of a food processing plant, she was well aware of the importance of finances in doing business.
It's not a matter of quantity, but rather that accuracy is paramount.
Only with accuracy can you know what the company should do next.
However, Shen Yun's feelings for Lin Shen were so deep that she overlooked this point.
After regaining her senses, Shen Yun realized that she had indeed done something wrong, so she quickly said...
"I paid a total of 512 million yuan in advance."
"I'll give you the money then."
Lin Shen stood up and said softly.
"Let's go, you make the arrangements for the drinking party tonight, we'll wander around a bit, and then head over there."
"it is good."
A hint of worry flashed in Shen Yun's beautiful eyes as she frantically wondered if Lin Shen was angry with her.
Xu Wenjie, standing to the side, was completely dumbfounded.
In his memory, it was always his aunt who scolded others; no one else had ever criticized her like Lin Shen did!
Something is wrong!
Something's very wrong!
Where is the inherent arrogance of my aunt?
Have they all been smoothed out by the deep forest?
As Shen Yun's nephew, Xu Wenjie was shocked by her changes.
As a man, he admired Lin Shen's methods even more.
What methods did he use to turn his aunt into this?
That's just too amazing.
Wang Shuo seemed surprised by this as well, but he was very mindful of boundaries and knew that this was not something he should be exploring.
Even if Lin Shen and Shen Yun have a special relationship, what does that have to do with me?
I'm just a hardworking office worker, so it's best not to get involved in these gossips.
……
6 PM, Jin'ao International Hotel.
When Lin Shen and his group arrived, they found that people had been waiting at the entrance for quite some time.
They were all dressed in suits and ties, exuding a very dashing air, clearly people of high status.
But when they saw Lin Ping get out of the back seat of the car, the group of people immediately greeted her with smiles.
"Mr. Shen, you've arrived."
"Ah."
Shen Yun turned to the other side and opened the car door for Lin Shen, which surprised everyone.
After all, they had never seen Shen Yun be so polite to anyone before.
After Lin Shen got out of the car, the others looked at him with even more surprise.
So young?
Who is this person?
"He is Chairman Lin of our Shennan Group."
Shen Yun took the initiative to introduce herself.
"Chairman Lin was originally in Nanjing on a business trip, but when he heard that I was going to meet with you tonight, he insisted on coming over to discuss things with you in person."
He is Lin Shen!?
Everyone was stunned, their eyes filled with shock and disbelief.
They had heard that Lin Shen was the chairman of Shennan Group, after all, they had worked with Shen Yun for so long and had learned about the founder of Shennan from her.
But to their utter surprise, the person who founded Shennan Pet Industry was so young!
To everyone else, entrepreneurship is something that experienced middle-aged people in their forties or fifties do.
Young people simply don't have the courage to start a business, let alone the connections and capital.
But Lin Shen's existence shattered their stereotypes about young people! (End of Chapter)
