July 13, morning.
Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store.
Li Shi sat in the corner, drinking coffee quietly.
"It's a lot more lively here, but... I still prefer the way it was before."
Li Shi sighed softly. He didn't know that at this point, he Reached a consensus with Pei Qian.
Although the last confrontation with Mr. Pei ended in a complete defeat, Li Shi was frustrated and did not come to Moyu Internet Cafe for more than a week, but he was still a little unwilling and hoped to find it again in the future. place.
Moreover, it has become a habit to come to Moyu Internet Cafe to sit and have a drink if you have nothing to do.
So, Li Shi came to the Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store again today to see what the store is like now.
The first impression is that there are indeed more customers.
He knew that it would be very lively here at night, so he specially chose a Tuesday morning to come here.
Unexpectedly, even on a weekday morning, there are many customers here.
Some people were reading and drinking coffee quietly in the coffee area, some were posing for photos, and some were surfing the Internet.
Business seems to be good.
Daily revenue, plus the sharing of drinks from the singers in the evening...
Li Shi estimates that most Moyu Internet Cafe flagship stores now have to make a profit. The more you make, the less you make. It’s hard to say, but it’s definitely worth it.
However, he personally still prefers the previous Moyu Internet Cafe.
It's very quiet, no one disturbs.
Of course, the current Moyu Internet cafes are not so lively and annoying, but they are not as quiet as before.
Li Shi took another sip of coffee, inexplicably feeling that something was missing.
Mr. Pei is not here, which is normal.
But where are the long-faced ones and the regional manager who has been following him?
Li Shi often came to the Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store before, and he would meet these two people every time, as if he was a permanent resident of this flagship store.
But today, both of them are not here.
“Weird.”
“It stands to reason that this store’s business is so good, shouldn’t it be more important to keep an eye on it?”
Li Shi has been keeping an eye on it for the past few days. I also roughly observed the changes in Moyu Internet Cafe.
The flagship store has indeed become popular because of Chen Lei, and has become an Internet celebrity store. Many people come to check in and make purchases, and the customer flow is very large.
But the other chain stores of Moyu Internet Cafe have not changed much. Although the traffic volume has also increased and the income has also increased, it is not comparable to the flagship store.
It is reasonable to speculate that although these branches can recover some losses, they should not be able to turn losses into profits.
At this time, shouldn’t we focus on flagship stores and promote the experience of flagship stores to other branches?
Why are these two people gone?
Li Shi raised his hand slightly,The waiter next to him immediately understood and came to his table.
"Can I help you with anything?" the waiter asked with a smile.
After all, Li Shi is a regular customer of Moyu Internet Cafe and spends a lot of money here. The waiter naturally knows this big customer and his service attitude is very good.
Li Shi put on a nonchalant look and asked: "Your Mr. Ma is not here today?"
The waiter smiled and said: "Yes, our Mr. Ma has not come during this time." I haven’t come here for almost a week.”
Li Shi was stunned.
One week?
That is to say, during the period when the Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store became popular and the most people were busy, after the customer flow in the flagship store stabilized, the big face never came again.
It stands to reason that the flagship store has a store manager, and the long-faced man can really leave it alone.
But Big Face and the others are the management above the store manager after all. If they are not in this store, they must have moved to another store.
What did they do?
There is probably something fishy here.
Li Shi smiled at the waiter: "It's okay, I'll just ask."
...
Two hours later.
Li Shi glanced at his phone, which contained a message from his subordinate.
"Mr. Li, I found out, it's at the Mingyun Villa store."
Li Shi was a little surprised when he saw this message.
But after thinking about it, I quickly understood.
Obviously, the two people with big faces saw that the Moyu Internet Cafe flagship store was popular, so they shifted their goals for the next stage to other branches!
Although Li Shi looked down on Ma Yang's long face and thought he was a bit stupid, he did not dare to look down upon him.
After all, Mr. Pei’s instructions must be behind Ma Yang’s every move!
After what happened last time, Li Shi no longer dared to look down on Mr. Pei because of his age and qualifications.
He knew that although Mr. Pei looked young and acted contrary to common sense, he had extremely clear and long-term plans, and he always had a backup plan!
Last time, Li Shi suffered a big loss because he underestimated Mr. Pei.
He gently rubbed his chin, thinking about the whole story.
"Mr. Pei must have been aware of my behavior last time."
"The big face disclosed false information to me, which must have been secretly inspired by Mr. Pei."
"Sure enough, although Da Long Lian is a bit stupid, he is loyal enough to Mr. Pei. I am really stupid to want to open a gap with Da Long Lian."
"This It is also very reasonable. If the long-faced man is not loyal to Mr. Pei, how can he win Mr. Pei's favor and occupy a high position? "
"This time, we must not make the same mistake again."
"The long-faced man no longer comes to the flagship store, but stays at the Mingyun Villa store. This is very likely to indicate Mr. Pei's next plan.Bureau, right in that area! ”
Li Shi did not follow his previous wishful thinking and thought about acquiring Moyu Internet Cafe.
He knew very well that Moyu Internet Cafe was now booming and the brand was built so well. It is basically impossible to invest.
Li Shi's interest in Moyu Internet Cafe has faded, but his interest in Mr. Pei has not. The evaluation of Mr. Pei continues to rise, and he is even regarded as a visionary entrepreneur in the entire Jingzhou City.
With such a great person around, it is natural to pay close attention to every move.
Maybe we can find some business opportunities?
It’s the same this time. Li Shi’s investigation of Moyu Internet Cafe Mingyun Villa is not for investment or acquisition, but mainly for Mr. Pei’s next step. His actions were very curious.
Open the map on his phone and take a quick look.
Li Shi frowned and didn’t quite understand what was going on in this place. .
The so-called "Mingyun Villa" is actually a high-end residential area on the outskirts of Jingzhou, mainly composed of single-family villas.
However, the planning of this place has some limitations. A little problem.
The location of Mingyun Villa is in the southeast of Jingzhou City, surrounded by mountains and rivers, with good scenery.
But there are two big problems in this villa area.
Firstly, the surrounding supporting facilities are not good. It is okay to buy it and live in it for two days occasionally, but it is not suitable for long-term living and life is a bit inconvenient;
Secondly, the developer’s strategy is very different The problem is that it was built entirely as a high-end villa. The average price was much higher than other villas in Jingzhou City, but the marketing capabilities were not strong and there was not enough hype.
So, it was completed quickly. One year later, the occupancy rate is still not high.
The location of the Moyu Internet Cafe in Mingyun Villa makes Li Shi feel completely confused.
This Internet cafe is not available. It was not chosen near Mingyun Villa, but rather a distance from the residential area of Mingyun Villa and the nearby East Campus of Handong Jiaotong University.
People from these two places thought of this Moyu Internet Cafe. Go, it’s a bit far.
