"It's okay, Miss Su, you can work part-time."
Without waiting for the other party to refuse, Li Zhi continued, "I believe Miss Sophie Su, the heiress of the Su Group and a talented graduate of the Business Administration Department of Haicheng University, must have a desire to build her own career, right?" Influenced by her family since childhood.
Sophie frowned at him, remained silent, and waited for Li Zhi to continue.
Today, Sophie visited because she recognized the potential in 'Happy Fish Ball' and wanted to be a part of it before the fish ball shop gained popularity. In other words, she wanted to get on board this "ship" and enjoy the substantial profits it would bring after setting sail.
Since she came for profit, Li Zhi decided to lay out the money and tempt her.
"Miss Su, as you can see, the 'Happy Fish Ball' shop is very popular." However, along with its popularity, there are also many shortcomings, such as chaotic management, operations, and sales. If you can quickly improve the status of the fish ball shop, I am willing to offer you the position of CEO at the 'Happy Fish Ball' chain store. Within a year, our goal is to fully dominate the Haicheng market and achieve a turnover of three billion. I will give you ten percent of the profit. Within three years, grow the 'Happy Fish Ball' brand to a value of thirty billion, and I will give you ten percent of the original shares!
Li Zhi looked at her and smiled, asking, "I wonder if Miss Su is willing to give it a try and showcase her talent?" "Three years is not too long!"
The temptation was definitely there. If she could earn ten percent of the profit, that would amount to thirty million in a year, which was not a small "salary." If, after three years, the 'Happy Fish Ball' brand was worth fifty billion, the ten percent of shares Li Zhi offered would also be quite valuable.
Listening with a happy expression, a salary of several million a year, and shares worth billions, in fact, it was just a pie in the sky. 'Happy Fish Ball' shop started as a single store, and it was uncertain how long it would take to expand into a chain enterprise.
A word-sub0 billion valuation was not easy to achieve!
Furthermore, Li Zhi did not mention giving her a year. She had a probationary period. Who knew if Miss Su was incompetent? If she couldn't even manage a "fish ball shop," then everything else was just nonsense.
Sophie was lost in thought. Within three years, transforming a small fish ball shop into a fifty billion valuation was truly fulfilling. Moreover, the chips Li Zhi offered were very tempting. One billion was not what she valued, but the shares Li Zhi offered.
"Twenty percent of one thousand chain stores aim to successfully feature 'Happy Fish Ball' within three years." "In addition, within this twenty percent of shares, it includes the technology for making fish balls in your hands," Sophie said.
Li Zhi shook his head with a smile and said, "Miss Su, you are a professional manager, not a partner." "I definitely cannot give you that many shares!"
Sophie thought for a moment and said, "In addition, I will invest another two million." If I cannot bring "Happy Fish Ball" to a valuation of fifty billion and establish a network of one thousand chain stores within three years, consider the two million as a gift to you. If I achieve it, I want twenty percent of the shares!
"No problem!"
Not receiving the expected refusal, Li Zhi agreed, "Before signing the contract, this shop will now serve as a test of your abilities." Please transfer the two million immediately. If your abilities are insufficient and cannot satisfy me, I will not hire you as the CEO of 'Happy Fish Ball'. "I will return the funds to you three months later!"
Li Zhi was short of money, and this two million from Sophie could greatly alleviate his financial situation.
If Sophie had the ability and the support of the Su Group and her father, Su Qiancheng, giving her twenty percent of the shares was not impossible. Sometimes, relationships were also a type of resource that money could not buy.
"Pleasant cooperation!"
Sophie reached out excitedly and shook hands with Li Zhi again. Two million was just pocket money for her. It was all she had in her account, but if she could exchange it for twenty percent of the shares of 'Happy Fish Ball', it would be a game-changer. She naturally knew which was more important!
To be honest, Li Zhi was also very happy. If Sophie had the ability, he wouldn't mind her joining his ship.
"Come, let me introduce you." This is Dong Xiaorou, the general manager of Xiaorou Food Factory, where our fish balls are produced. This is Xiao Qing, the manager of the No. 1 store at Haicheng University. "This is Mu Xiaomei, my good friend!" Li Zhi introduced the three girls with a smile.
Then he introduced Sophie, saying, "This beautiful lady may become the future CEO of 'Happy Fish Ball'. Whether she can take on this position depends on her ability!
After introducing all the current members, Li Zhi looked at Sophie and asked with a grin, "Miss Su, when can you transfer the two million to me?" After transferring, you can participate in the discussion of the fish ball shop's reform plan!
One sentence suddenly made Sophie feel like she had boarded the wrong ship!
Sighing in her heart, Sophie said, "Give me the bank account." "I will transfer it to you now!"
"Alright!"
Li Zhi was impolite when he gave her his account number with a smile.
After Sophie transferred the money, Li Zhi informed everyone that the cash had been received and asked, "Are you all hungry?" Let's eat and chat while we dine.
The "big yellow croaker fish balls" were already cooked!
"Enjoy!" Today, to celebrate Miss Sophie Su's joining, the fish balls are on the house. "Eat as much as you want, my treat!" Li Zhi placed the large yellow croaker fish balls in paper cups and handed them to Mu Xiaomei and Sophie, attempting to impress them.
Dong Xiaorou rolled her eyes. She didn't mention anything about Li Zhi tricking Sophie into joining. With her current status, she had no right to interfere with Li Zhi, the 'big boss'.
Both Mu Xiaomei and Sophie tasted the big yellow croaker fish balls for the first time and immediately noticed the difference.
"What are these fish balls made of?" Sophie asked curiously. The taste was much better than ordinary fish balls, and if they were put on the market, they would be more popular!
Li Zhi smiled and said, "Wild big yellow croaker fish." The cost of each pound exceeds a thousand yuan. If sold retail, one fish ball would not cost less than a hundred yuan. "Of course, ingredients like these wild big yellow croaker fish are not easy to come by."
"Wild big yellow croaker fish?" Sophie was stunned. According to Li Zhi's calculations, the "fish balls" that the boss treated them to today were not inexpensive!
"Everyone has seen the current situation at the fish ball shop." Let's all discuss how to change this situation! Li Zhi said while eating.
