Che Rong was stunned by Li Shi's analysis.
When Deposit Fitness first opened, the effect was not very good. It had been incurring losses. Many gyms that were about to close down had given their shops to Deposit Fitness. Those bosses thought that they had found someone to take over and were smug.
However, Deposit Fitness soared to the sky very quickly. Now, it had opened branches in first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou!
The other gyms wanted to learn this model, but they could not!
Deposit Fitness was very strict with its users. What's more, it was equipped with Fish-Catching Take-Out's fitness meals. The reason why the customers over there could endure such harsh conditions was because Deposit Fitness already had an excellent reputation. Everyone knew that the effect was good, so they gritted their teeth and persevered.
This was a virtuous cycle.
If other gyms did the same, they would definitely die without knowing how.
Thus, Che Rong did not continue to pay attention to Deposit Fitness. After all, only Tengda could play such a model.
However, from the looks of it, Boss Li was obviously going to make an issue out of this smart fitness drying rack?
Although the money was paid by Manager Li, if there were any problems, the risk would be borne by both parties.
He had to find a place to place the smart fitness drying rack after buying it. That meant that he had to remove a portion of the other fitness equipment. The layout of the entire gym had to be rearranged.
If this thing took up space and no one used it, and a portion of the original equipment was removed, the fitness experience would be reduced for ordinary customers.
Given Star Bird Fitness' current state, it would not be far from death if such a thing really happened.
Li Shi saw Che Rong's hesitation.
"Boss Che, think about it carefully. What advantages does Star Bird Fitness have compared to other chain gyms? None at all! "
"It would be a dead end to just rely on the price war. All the gyms would lower their prices and withdraw their money. In the end, they would close down together."
"Now, the smart fitness drying rack has risks, but there are also opportunities. The first person to eat crabs and the second person to eat crabs will receive completely different treatment! "
"Deposit Fitness might also have a smart fitness drying rack, but the number of members that Deposit Fitness can accommodate is strictly limited. It is impossible to satisfy all the needs of the smart fitness drying rack."
"As for buying it myself … this equipment takes up a lot of space and is not cheap. Although there are moving services, there will be a lot of people who buy it, but there will also be a lot of people who don't. "
"Aren't people who don't have Deposit Fitness members and don't want to buy smart fitness drying racks a perfect target group?"
"The other gym chains are still slow to realize it. What if Starbird Fitness can take the lead in launching an 'interactive fitness area' with smart fitness drying racks?
And use this as a topic for publicity and discussion?
If he successfully captured this batch of target users, it would definitely bring Starbird Fitness a lot of popularity.
Seize the first opportunity among all the gyms! "
"What if the other gyms follow up?
As the first gym to launch a similar model, Star Bird Fitness will definitely benefit from it! "
"Furthermore …"
Li Shi paused.
He lowered his voice and said, "Given my relationship with Tengda, I can guarantee that the smart fitness drying rack will give you priority."
"As far as I know?
The smart fitness drying rack was limited by the production capacity of the original factory?
It's currently out of stock. "
"So, it's impossible to buy it online."
"I know the person-in-charge of Otto Technologies, Chang You. As long as I talk to him about business purchases, I can get the factory to increase its production capacity?
Get the goods in bulk. What's more, with limited production in the early stages?
Only we can get the goods. The other gyms can't! "
"This situation won't last for long. The other gyms will definitely get the goods one after another. However, even if our lead is only two to three months, it will be enough. That's because we would have sold a large number of fitness cards by then.
We would have won over a large number of customers! "
"Boss Che, you have to think about this carefully.
If you don't participate, I will still look for other gyms. "
To Li Shi?
Star Bird Fitness was his first choice.
There might be a few other gym chains in Jingzhou, but they were basically all national.
The headquarters might be in Beijing, Shanghai, or other big cities.
It would not be so smooth to cooperate.
As for the small gym in Jingzhou?
The scale was too small. It could not take in a few smart fitness drying racks and could not be used.
Star Bird Fitness was a local gym in Jingzhou. It was neither big nor small. It would be easier to take the initiative to cooperate with Che Rong, and its development prospects would be better.
It was also because of the smart fitness drying rack that Li Shi finally decided to invest in Star Bird Fitness because all the conditions were very suitable.
Li Shi felt that he had been drinking Boss Pei's soup all this time. Naturally, he had to pull others to drink some of his soup. Everyone helped each other!
Of course, if Che Rong insisted on refusing, Li Shi could only look for someone else.
Che Rong lowered his head in deep thought. Obviously, he was moved by Li Shi's words.
Everyone knew that the only investment legend in Jingzhou was Boss Pei. Following closely behind was Mr. Li of Fu Hui Investments.
Boss Li followed Boss Pei to invest. The success rate and yield rate were extremely high. Any project that Boss Li liked and was related to Tengda would basically succeed.
What's more, Boss Li and Boss Pei's friendship made this plan more stable.
If he could indirectly cozy up to Tengda through Boss Li, how difficult would it be to revive Star Bird Fitness?
Boss Li's plan might have a certain risk but it was not worth mentioning compared to the benefits.
It was worth a try!
Che Rong nodded at that thought. "Alright, Boss Li, I accept this condition!"
"I will open up an 'interactive fitness area' in all gyms. I will arrange smart fitness drying racks in all of them. I will also assign two professional fitness trainers to watch over them and guide the members in using the equipment."
"Then, we will carry out publicity around this point so that everyone who wants to play the fitness battle can come here to apply for a card!"
"As for the purchase of equipment, I'll leave it to you, Boss Li!"
Li Shi smiled and nodded. "Don't worry, I'll contact Chang You from Otto Technologies directly. When the time comes, I'll get the goods from the factory and send them over immediately!"
Compared to the small orders online, Chang You had no reason to reject the purchase of hundreds of sets of equipment for the gym.
Star Bird Fitness had more than ten stores. Each store would purchase ten sets, and the first batch would purchase more than a hundred sets.
What's more, this was only the first batch of purchases. There would be more in the future.
Once he realized that this model was feasible and had a warm response, Li Shi would naturally continue to invest or use other methods to finance so that Star Bird Fitness could continue to open branches quickly and spread this model in a short period of time.
While bringing a large number of orders to Otto Technologies, Star Bird Fitness would also allow Star Bird Fitness to expand rapidly by snatching the customers of other gym chains!
Thus, the final result would be a triple win for Tengda, Star Bird Fitness, and Fu Hui Investments. Wouldn't that be perfect?
What's more, Li Shi felt that he could consider talking to Shang Yang Games to provide some small benefits to customers who used smart fitness drying racks at Star Bird Fitness in the early stages.
It would be just like the free skins of GOG's internet cafe partners. Customers would be allowed to use some free clothes or give some tokens when they played Fitness Battle at Star Bird Fitness.
They could even create a 'Fitness Battle' themed shop when they opened a new store. They could customize a few statues of the characters in the game and set up a fitness scene similar to the game. That would attract more customers.
Of course, Li Shi had always remembered that the prerequisite for freeloading on Tengda's benefits was to leave the majority of the profits to Tengda.
Thus, Star Bird Fitness' new store would definitely try its best to avoid being in the same location as Deposit Fitness and help Deposit Fitness snatch the business of other gym chains. It would even advertise Tengda's industry in its own gym and try its best to be a good underling.
What's more, Li Shi knew very well that Boss Pei hated scalpers the most. Thus, he chose to look for Chang You directly and take the goods from the factory. He would open another batch of production lines. It would not affect the original stock of the smart fitness drying rack.
That way, it would not cause a shortage and benefit the scalpers. At the same time, it would be able to obtain products in large quantities. It would open Star Bird Fitness' 'interactive fitness area' as soon as possible and seize the initiative.
Li Shi made the entire plan flawless based on his understanding of Boss Pei.
He felt that the chances of success were very high after reviewing it!
Li Shi and Che Rong finalized the details and officially reached an agreement. They rubbed their palms together and prepared to go all out!
