In the meeting room, Roger looked terrible.
He still didn't seem to understand why the meeting he led was being dominated by Hannah.
Before Mann spoke, Hannah asked, "Vice President, other people not involved in these projects should not have to waste their time in this meeting, right?"
Roger didn't say anything.
After all, it was none of their business. Forcing them to attend this meeting was indeed wasting their time.
Hannah thought he acquiesced in the decision since he said nothing.
She let those who were not involved in this left the conference room and asked Mann to brief them about the project.
After the report, she asked, "May I ask for your suggestions?"
Apparently, Roger got stumped.
He had these weekly meetings for the pleasure of being dominant and then using his power to criticize responsible staff. But he never wanted to manage the work himself. Now he was obviously at a loss in front of the question.
There was tension in the room, where everyone was waiting for his answer in silence.
Everything was at the climax of intensity and awkwardness.
Roger's face was as white as a sheet.
Long time, he said in a angry voice. "This is your job. Now you're asking me what to do. What does the sales department do? Think harder! Don't try to come to your boss whenever you have a problem. Or we should take your salary."
Hannah sneered.
She knew what would happen.
After all, Roger knew nothing about business, for all his mind was spent on dealing with her father and he never wanted to learn anything real.
"We wanted to take the time to solve the problem, but now that our time has been taken up by you. I thought you had some solutions for us. Or should I say, I don't know the meaning of this meeting?"
"Enough!" Roger snapped again and shouted angrily.
"I'm just being responsible for my work and discussing it with you. Why are you so angry?"
Roger was mortified but he couldn't speak. His face was purple with anger.
The atmosphere remained awkward and tense.
"Yes."
Hannah shared her ideas with him and they decided on a preliminary program.
At 2:00 pm, she called all the people involved in the project for a meeting.
"As usual, to cut it short, the meeting will be in half an hour. Rose will do the timing." Hannah was always straightforward.
Her quick and resolute style was always fascinating.
Her meetings were always so packed that everyone had to be completely focused. If they were distracted for one second, they would miss important things.
"Yesterday, I went to the Light Building. There were three problems as Mann said. Subway stops are canceled; luxury brands are reluctant to move in, and rents are too high. Now we need to crack them one by one. First of all, the cancellation of the subway stations did not cause a big problem. We initially positioned it as a high-end luxury shopping mall and people who came to go shopping here would rarely use the subway. So that's not a major problem that we need to think about. As for the two points left, the most important one is that it's hard to attract brands to settle."
"There could be many reasons, but the one easy to see is that merchants are worried about sales. So what we need to figure out is how to help merchants sell their products and how to increase sales in our mall. That's the point we're going to discuss today."
Everyone listened carefully and attentively.
Hannah continued, "On this point, I have come up with a relevant marketing plan just as a start. It is not mature and we need to put our heads together. First, make a boost. We didn't do any more PR after the completion. Those brands could not see the value of our shopping mall and that's why they did not settle in, so the first step is to invest in advertising. Second, target several luxury brands. We will offer them rent relief or a VAM and use their signs to attract other brand counterparts to follow. Third, use e-commerce platforms to attract customers. We could take the mall as a large e-commerce market to provide a convenient shopping channel for high-end people."
