On August 29th morning, the chairman of BBG Group, Wang Tian was visited by Matsui Tadamitsu, the former president of Muji, who created a miracle of Muji growth, and Xia Feng, the president of commercial development of China Muji. It's said by Mr. Matsui that Muji’s largest standard store in China will open in Meixi XINTIANDI.

    Matsui Tadamitsu, the creator of "miracle of Muji growth ", visited BBG.

    Mr. Matsui is the former president of Ryohin Keikaku (also named as Muji). And he took over as Muji chairman in January, 2001. Due to his outstanding leadership, the company conducted a series of reform, making the company’s income rise to 162million yen from a deficit of 3.6 billion yen. Therefore Mr. Matsui is regarded as "the miracle of Muji growth" in this field. Muji is a consumer brand of fast fashion, which is popular among the world for it has about 7500 kinds of products involving all aspects in life. It was rated as the best global mid-sized company by Forbes, a world-renowned financial magazine.

    In his first time to Changsha in Hunan, firstly Mr. Matsui visited BBG. When interviewed by a reporter in Meixi XINTIANDI, Mr. Matsui said that Meixi XINTIANDI was a huge-scaled project since until now I had seldom heard of a project beyond 70,000 square meters in area. Therefore, it's a rising city rather than a commercial real-estate project. This project would bring a great innovational impact on current business environment with its huge scale."

    Muji's largest standard store in China will enter Meixi XINTIANDI.

    Has Muji determined to enter Meixi XINTIANDI? And what is the ideal size of Muji store?

    Matsui Tadamitsu:
    It's almost certain that our company will enter Meixi XINTIANDI. We have settled the terms, and now we are preparing for the signing contracts. The area of Muji store in Meixi XINTIANDI is more than 750 square meters, which will be the largest one of standard Muji store in China. We will select some excellent products from more than 7500 items to enter Meixi XINTIANDI and offer our products as many as possible.

    BBG IM (instant message):
    Will Muji further cooperation with BBG in the coming years? For example, will Muji enter e-commerce platform of BBG Group?

    Matsui Tadamitsu:
    Now we have online business in china, though most our goods only sell in Japan. So we are considering introducing these goods to China. We want to introduce goods which are not sold at China market now but only at our own country to BBG Yunhou net. We may discuss the further cooperation with BBG.

    Chairman Wang Tian is a prominent entrepreneur who is also high-status and capable. However, I found he was modest and kind when I contacted with him. As we always say, such an entrepreneur like him is a man who can manage successfully.
