Chapter 349 Loss
A boss who can’t make promises is not a qualified boss.
Not to mention that he didn't paint a complete picture. According to the current market situation, if the government does not introduce some strong policies to stimulate the market, those developers will probably have nothing to lose this year.
As far as Zhang Qiyuan knows, all developers are now frantically cutting prices. It is possible that the house you buy today will be reduced by hundreds of thousands the next day. Under such market conditions, which customer would dare to make a purchase? No one can be sure whether he will lose hundreds of thousands within a few days.
What about Seoul?
First, the government likes to come up with some gimmicks to sell land, and it sells a lot of land. Now there are already a lot of existing houses, and the quality of houses in Seoul is hard to describe compared with the quality of houses in other cities.
According to the data, housing prices in Seoul have fallen the most, which is also related to the quality of houses in Seoul and the excessive number of super-high-rise buildings.
Zhang Qiyuan said that the government will release new policies in October. This is partly his own guess, and partly to quench thirst and give employees some hope.
"Secondly, it's about remuneration. Our Qijia Real Estate's commission is 50% for new agents and 60% for experienced agents. We get the full commission for residential rental orders. In addition, those who collect two percentage points of the agency fee will receive an additional 2000 full commission bonus. The first order at the beginning of each month will receive a 500 first order bonus. The one with the most sales every six months..."
"In a few days, our Qijia Real Estate's own system 'Qijia Online' will be released. I hope everyone will actively build properties by then..."
“In this August, I wish you all…”
"The meeting is dismissed!"
Zhang Qiyuan had originally prepared a lot of speeches, but after thinking about it, it seemed that everyone didn't want to hear them, so after chatting for a while, he announced the official end of their first general meeting of Qijia Real Estate.
After the meeting, Zhang Qiyuan stopped Luo Gang.
"Brother Luo, is the owner of the detached villa in Xuefu Village still unwilling to lower the price?" Zhang Qiyuan asked.
"Now that you have opened four stores, why are you still thinking about doing business?" Luo Gang asked in surprise.
Zhang Qiyuan smiled bitterly and said, "There's nothing I can do. Now that we have a headquarters, the people in the headquarters also need to be paid. With the current market situation, if I don't place some orders, how can I support the company's employees?"
When other people start a company, their employees work to support the retirement, but in his case, the boss works to support the employees.
But there is nothing that can be done about it. This is what happens when the market is not good. Once the market gets better, he will take off. After all, there are so many people in the company.
And he is indeed a little short of money now.
He had nearly 700,000 yuan in savings before, but the renovation of the Zhongjian Mansion store, the purchase of things, and the rent cost him nearly 140,000 yuan, and he invested another 300,000 yuan in renting a house. Although the income from the following stores just offset the 300,000 yuan, he later took over the Poly store, which also cost him nearly 140,000 yuan including the rent. He now has only about 400,000 yuan in his hands. Of course, he later exchanged shares with Luo Gang and others, and there is still about 180,000 yuan in the company's account.
But now the salaries of the head office and the rent, utilities of each store require a lot of money. The average monthly rent for the four stores is about 10,000 yuan. Add to that the salaries of the people at the headquarters, the salaries of the store managers, and the money paid in advance by the new employees, and there are more than 100,000 yuan in expenses a month. If he doesn't make any orders for a few months, he can only last four or five months.
"The owner's tone is a little softened now, but 1500 million is still too low. Let's put it this way, let your client raise the budget a little more, otherwise it will be difficult to close this deal." Luo Gang said.
"Alas, this kind of list is really a bit troublesome."
Zhang Qiyuan sighed. There was nothing that could be done about it. When the market was good, the owners' mentality would definitely be much better. When the market was bad, the customers' mentality would be better again. It was simply a vicious circle.
It’s a pity that the owner doesn’t like chatting with strangers, otherwise he would have to bargain with the owner no matter what.
……
After August 15th, Zhang Qiyuan accompanied Zhang Aoyu and Ni Qingqing to wander around various tourist attractions in Seoul.
It was not until early September that Zhang Qiyuan started his official work after sending Zhang Aoyu back to his parents.
"Hello, Professor Wang. I'm Xiao Zhang from the Qi family. Yes, I've been in contact with the owner of the villa recently. The owner said that he could pay a little less than 1800 million, but not much less." Zhang Qiyuan said. "How much less? Half a million?"
"It should be about right!" said Zhang Qiyuan.
"The house is worth 1800 million, but he only paid 50 less. He is quite generous."
Zhang Qiyuan was speechless. The owner's initial payment was not 1800 million, but 2100 million. It was already good enough to save .
"I don't care. We can only offer 1500 million. Xiao Zhang, please try your best to help us negotiate. If we can get 1500 million, I will give you a big red envelope." Wang Yun said.
Sister, I need to be able to contact the owner!
Zhang Qiyuan muttered in his heart.
Judging from Wang Yun’s current situation, it is unlikely that a deal will be completed in the near future.
Thinking of this, Zhang Qiyuan set his sights on the single-family villa in Napa Valley. He contacted Ye Rong first, and after confirming that the single-family villa had not been sold yet, Zhang Qiyuan began to send messages to customers who had previously consulted him about prices.
What's more, there are actually customers willing to come out and see the house.
But he just took a look at it and then changed the price to a very outrageous one. Zhang Qiyuan didn't dare to report this price to Ye Rong for fear of being scolded.
The customer was not optimistic about the real estate market, and even if Zhang Qiyuan had a eloquent tongue, there was nothing he could do, as the customer simply would not buy the property.
Their Qijia Real Estate was basically in a loss-making state in August. They only brought in two orders from the property in Xingcheng Jingyuan, but the commission was not much, and they didn't even make back the rent.
Although Zhang Qiyuan was anxious, there was nothing he could do.
……
In a blink of an eye, the Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon.
"Mr. Zhang, should we distribute mooncakes to employees during the Mid-Autumn Festival?" Ao Fei asked.
"Of course I will. By the way, please buy some more for me. I will give them away as gifts. If there are agents in the company who want to give them away as gifts to clients, I can sell them to them at half price." Zhang Qiyuan said.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhang Qiyuan went to give away mooncake boxes as gifts again.
Several of his clients were very surprised. After all, Zhang Qiyuan had already given gifts once during the Lantern Festival, and he didn't expect that he would continue to give gifts during the Mid-Autumn Festival. However, several people said that they had relatives and friends who wanted to buy houses, but the market was unstable now and they were not too sure.
Zhang Qiyuan was not in a hurry either, he just said that there would probably be a policy in the future.
After the gifts were presented, Zhang Qiyuan and Ni Qingqing were invited to his godsister's home to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
"How is the company recently?" Deng Ying asked with concern.
"The market has been bad recently and the company is in a loss-making state." Zhang Qiyuan told the truth.
"This is basically the case with real estate now. There is no need to rush. The government will probably come up with policies to stimulate the economy in the near future. If you have some spare money, you can make some quick money in the stock market. The stock market is doing well at this time," said Deng Ying.
Hearing this, Zhang Qiyuan's heart moved.
