CHAPTER 135 - Ella's Business Ability
the Ford Group, Sales Department Conference Room.
Ella sat in the very center.
On either side sat the center manager of the sales department, the supervisor and some core employees.
She eyed it.
Saw Doris at that moment.
Morton, Kim and Doris are all home on bereavement leave because of Hedy's death.
That's not the end of the hiatus.
And Doris came.
Doris noticed the look in Ella's eyes and quickly said, "Sis has been buried, and I'm just grieving in vain at home, so I came to work early, so maybe with a little distraction from work, I'll be able to relax a bit."
Ella nodded slightly in response and said nothing more.
Doris just watched Ella's coldness toward her with scrutiny as well.
Yesterday, Ella forced Lewis to force Donald to leave the matter, in their family actually caused a shocking wave, they did not expect, the hall of the Ford Group second-in-command, was actually forced by Ella to leave the company, and in the future can only enjoy the pure dividends, will not be involved in the company's decision-making.
Her dad didn't lighten up for a second when he found out the news.
It was so hard for her dad to pull Donald's strings, and Donald was able to back him up in senior leadership, and now to have Ella just screw up and leave in disgrace is just unacceptable.
But that's just the way it is.
All his dad could do was tell her and her brother and himself to come to the office early.
Was really afraid that if they weren't around for a few days, Ella could really turn the company upside down!
Their family was never going to let Ella develop.
Let Ella develop and it's pretty much a pipe dream for their family to try and control the Ford Group on this one.
So early this morning, she followed her to the office.
As soon as they arrived at the front door of the company, they bumped into Ella, and at that moment they were going to go up to her, but then they saw Eden getting out of the car.
Eden is really good-looking.
But before the reputation is not good, so the real upper class millennials can't notice him, but I don't know since when, Eden's image seems to have changed, it seems to be that after marrying Ella, Eden's development is also going in a good direction, and even the wind presses down Lucien.
Needless to say, Lucien really hurt his energy that time he got hit in the face live at a wedding, and his whole being just fell off the face of the earth.
It is said that the Williams family's finances have been greatly affected by the Lucien scandal.
Not to mention the others.
Doris herself thinks that Lucien really has nothing to shine in Eden's current light.
Originally she had thoughts about Lucien ......
Now.
Now ......
She gritted her teeth.
The thought of Eden and Ella's interaction this morning, the obvious affection in Eden's eyes, the emotion that really wasn't feigned, made her literally mad with jealousy.
She wondered what made Ella so lucky.
Why should she be so much superior to her from birth.
What makes it possible to live in such splendor and glory now.
And she still, has nothing!
"Today's meeting was mainly to sort out some of the current sales difficulties in the sales department, focusing on two projects, one is the rotten neighborhood building in Flower Beach, and the other is the investment attraction problem of One World Tower." Ella opened her mouth with a full aura.
Everyone in the conference room was quiet.
"Let's start with the Flower Beach Rotten Building. This project was contracted to Goldengate, a contractor we worked closely with before, and now the owner of Goldengate has absconded with the funds, and the police have found nothing for the time being, so the construction site is just deserted. I've seen the construction plan of this property, the location is the best place where Seattle can get the land, the construction of the community should be very hot, but because of the contractor's departure causes us now can't plan the sales of the property, obviously affect our sales department's turnover this year, so this project I will apply to the board of directors individually, and strive to be able to through other ways to build normally. Here, I won't say much more, everyone knows about this matter and is ready to plan the launch of the marketing plan for the Flower Beach neighborhood at any time."
Everyone in the audience listened attentively.
Ella spoke up again, "The main focus of the day is the attraction of traffic to One World Tower. mr. Parker, what is the current status of One World Tower?"
Wilson stepped forward respectfully.
She projected the PPT she made last night and opened her mouth to introduce, "This is the current situation of One World Tower, which we have built for one year, with a total of 12 floors and nearly 1,000 stores. Currently investment twenty percent, that is to say, only less than 200 merchants in business, and as far as I know, the real normal opening of only 130, other merchants because of serious losses directly chose to shut down, once the contract period, will choose to terminate the agreement."
"One World Tower and the Ford Group invested two billion dollars in the project, and the current cost recovery is 20 million dollars. That is to say, this project has lost a whole 1.88 billion dollars from the time it was built until now. It is considered to be one of the Ford Group's biggest loss projects at the moment." Wilson seriously and earnestly introduced, "And according to the previous plan of One World Tower, we will recover all the money within three years, and the profit will reach thirty percent of the investment amount within five years. In other words, within five years, One World Tower's earnings will be at 2.6 billion dollars. As things stand now, it's a pipe dream."
Wilson finished his report and respectfully descended from the center of the podium.
Ella averted her eyes from the screen, "Which department was responsible for attracting traffic to this project before?"
"It's us." Patrick, the center manager of Group A in the sales department, spoke up, "It was in my area at the time that we landed the implementation of this project."
"Why are we so bad at recruiting?" Ella asked.
"Originally, when One World Tower was built, it was considered in many ways, and it was supposed to be a shopping district that would be very hot, but then it encountered three actual situations. First, One World Tower around the residential buildings because of large-scale demolition, many local residents moved away, resulting in the cancellation of the local subway station, the inconvenience of transportation, the mall will not have a flow of people, once there is no flow of people, it is very difficult to attract business. Secondly, One World Tower originally wanted to build Seattle's largest high-end luxury brand shopping mall, but currently willing to move into One World Tower's first-tier luxury goods are not available, and the first-tier luxury goods stores are not formed, and not formed the scale, there will not be a butterfly effect, and naturally, other brands will not move in. Thirdly, One World Tower was built according to the highest standards at the time of spending a lot of money, so the cost of investment, but also more expensive than the average store, under the measurement, it is difficult for businesses will choose us."
Ella nodded, sort of.
She said, "Manager Meng accompanied me to the field this afternoon."
"Yes." Patrick nodded.
"Now for this project, I'm going to do a job clarification, and before the clarification, let's set our goals." Ella's stern tone is just aura.
All were respectful and waited for orders.
