366 New Classmate
“I don’t want to set up many stations in M City at the beginning. I’m just suggesting this idea. We can start the project from a community or even a street,” Chu Ning answered with a smile.
”But now, I need your authorization. After my software is officially launched, I hope that we can use the mall as a platform to complete our collaboration,” Chu Ning continued.
“I can’t make the decision on this matter. I’m only in charge of the daily operations and sales of the mall. As for the collaboration, I’ll talk to the shareholders at the meeting tomorrow.” The bald manager thought Chu Ning’s idea was good, but there would be a lot of resistance if it were to be put into practice.
More importantly, the collaboration was not something he could decide on.
“I believe everyone can see its potential. While it expands our profits, it also makes our lives more convenient.” Chu Ning felt that the key to promoting collaboration was whether her software could be launched.
If the mall could provide a reputation guarantee, the subsequent promotion would be much smoother.
“At first, I was curious as to why someone like Yang Feng would target you, but now I understand. You are really young and promising!” The bald manager knew some basic information about Chu Ning.
An 18-year-old high school student could now sit on equal terms at the negotiation table and communicate with a group of business bosses who stood at the top of M City. If it hadn’t been for the personal experience, it would simply have been unbelievable.
“I’m just lucky. I’m constantly changing and adjusting according to people’s needs,” Chu Ning said humbly.
“No, no, no.” The bald manager quickly waved his hand and smiled bitterly before continuing, “Our business has existed for more than 20 years, but we’ve never thought of reform and innovation. After all, we’re very satisfied with the current state. We don’t have any pressure or motivation. However, we can’t keep doing this. After all, times are changing, and the old will always be replaced by the new.”
The bald manager was a little emotional. There were only a few large shopping malls in M City, located in the most prosperous areas. This pattern was difficult to break. Everyone had a tacit understanding, abided by each other’s bottom line, and quietly divided the market.
However, with Chu Ning’s appearance, the bald manager had a feeling that the business structure of M City would change greatly with her intervention.
“In the future, when President Chu’s business grows bigger and we’re the first to work with you, I hope President Chu can give us the best preferential treatment,” the bald manager continued.
“Of course.” Chu Ning nodded. The nature of a businessman was to pursue profits. Naturally, the bald manager hoped that Chu Ning would give him the best possible discount.
The two of them chatted for a while more before Chu Ning left the large shopping mall.
“The stronger you are, the more choices you have,” Chu Ning couldn’t help but exclaim after walking out of the mall.
The small and medium-sized supermarkets had to listen to Yang Feng because he was their largest supplier. If they rejected Yang Feng, they were likely to be targeted and retaliated against.
However, the shopping mall did not have such concerns. To them, Yang Feng was just an important partner. It was not to the point where he was indispensable. If Chu Ning’s value and usefulness were greater than Yang Feng’s, Yang Feng could be abandoned at any time.
When Chu Ning returned to Jinghu District, it was already past nine at night.
This time, she hadn’t planned on immediately signing a contract. After all, the software hadn’t been developed yet, and some of her plans hadn’t been launched yet.
Chu Ning’s purpose was to let these people be mentally prepared. She was not worried that the information would be leaked. Even if someone knew, no one would have the same experience as her. She had the experience of how success looked like before transmigrating as a means of encouragement.
The next morning, when Chu Ning arrived at the entrance of Jingyuan High School, she saw a banner hanging up high.
Normally, there was no need for such a grand welcome for a new student, but this new student’s situation was somewhat special. Her father’s purpose in coming to M City was to invest and build a factory, and the city government attached great importance to it. Jingyuan High School naturally had to express their stance.
The last time they had hung a banner was to welcome Zhang Bo as a board member.
When Chu Ning arrived at the classroom, she realized that the atmosphere was even livelier than it had been the day before.
There was also an exquisite gift box on her table.
“Chu Ning, why are you always here on the dot these days? Do you see the box on the table?” Xiaomi said, a little agitated.
